Chapter 153 Little Red Dot

No matter how thin a girl is, after a year of careful care, she can have a graceful figure.

Sixteen-year-old Yang Zhi still has some of the immaturity of a young girl. Although she has not grown taller, her figure is still changing slowly.

In a blink of an eye, it became exquisite and graceful.

Yang Zhi herself also felt that throughout the entire summer vacation, her brother had begun to keep some distance from her, intentionally or unintentionally.

She really didn't like this feeling, but she couldn't change herself, so she had to change into looser clothes, tied her hair into a simple ponytail, and let her thin bangs down again.

Looking in the mirror, Yang Zhi felt that there seemed to be no change between now and a year ago, and she felt a little lost again.

Yang Zhi really wants to grow up, but her brother wants to hide away.

The clothes were soaked yesterday. Yang Zhi picked up a corner and smelled it. It seemed that it was soaked for a little too long, but it was not a big problem. It could be rinsed once more.

Pressing the button of the washing machine and listening to the stirring sound of water, Yang Zhi raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

It's simple, today's mission has been accomplished.

As for cleaning the house, I can just wait until I come back at noon next time to clean it up.

After Yang Zhi's gradual probing, she discovered a small thing.

Xu Mingyuan always lets down his guard when he leaves home, even if it's just for one day.

This is Yang Zhi’s favorite moment. Although it is short, it is very happy.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan lying on the sofa watching TV, Yang Zhi ran over, jumped onto the sofa, and fell softly beside him.

At first, Xu Mingyuan was holding Xiao Yangzhi's shoulders with his left hand. After the morning news was over, he found that he was holding her with his right hand. He didn't know when she got into his arms.

Before Xu Mingyuan could say anything, Yang Zhi got up, said the clothes were washed, and quickly drained the water in the washing machine, took out the clothes and put them into the spin dryer.

A few minutes later, she hung the clothes on the hanger and sat down next to him again, replaying what had just happened.

Today is cloudy but still hot and muggy.

Xu Mingyuan was not in the mood to play badminton, so he took Xiao Yangzhi to play computer games for a while.

At noon, Yang Zhi cooked two bowls of noodles, cut the braised pork and chicken feet she bought yesterday and put them on a plate, and had a simple meal.

Taking a nap has become Xu Mingyuan's habit. Xiao Yangzhi also followed him in, pulled the curtains, and set the air conditioner to 26 degrees.

He whispered that turning on the air conditioner too often would waste electricity, then he occupied a small corner and closed his eyes.

Xu Mingyuan knew that Xiao Yangzhi wanted to stay with him for a while longer. He didn't care in broad daylight. He told her to sleep well and ignored her.

But saying is one thing, doing is another.

When Xu Mingyuan woke up again, Xiao Yangzhi was already leaning against him with one arm on his chest, sleeping soundly.

Moving her legs that were pressing on him, Xu Mingyuan picked up his phone, turned it to silent mode, and started sending text messages to tease Tao Shuxin.

Xiao Yangzhi looked really tired. It was inconvenient for Xu Mingyuan to raise his arm to send a text message, so he put his arm around her neck.

Even with this action, Xiao Yangzhi didn't wake up.

But her beautiful brows were not twisted as before, instead, her eyes were closed peacefully.

It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that little Yangzhi woke up slowly.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I crushed you..."

Yang Zhi apologized softly and buried her face.

"fine."

"Ok."

Yang Zhi didn't stand up, but came over quietly.

Xu Mingyuan smiled and continued sending text messages.

After Yang Zhi took a look, he whispered, "Brother, let's chat for a while."

"Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

Xu Mingyuan put down his phone and sat up.

Yang Zhi felt a little depressed, so he had to sit up.

I should have stopped talking earlier. Anyway, text messages aren't sent all the time. It's much better to chat while lying down...

"Brother, when will you go back to school?"

"Have dinner."

"Oh..." Yang Zhi sighed and tilted her head to ask, "Brother, when will you come home next time?"

"It will be easy next time. You can come back anytime. If you like, I can pick you up from Monday to Saturday."

"Well, tomorrow is okay?"

Yang Zhi turned her head and looked at him, her eyes full of hope.

"No, I don't have to do anything else all day. I can spend half of my time just on the road."

Seeing her eyes dimmed a little, Xu Mingyuan felt helpless.

I want to let go, but I can't make up my mind, and I have become an indecisive person.

I don’t know how Xu Jun behaves in there, and whether I can try to get his sentence reduced. If he can get out earlier, I’ll be free.

Yang Zhi curled up limply, but said in a happy tone: "Brother, don't worry, I will be fine."

Seeing her tilted head, Xu Mingyuan felt tired just looking at her, so he simply held up her head and let her lie in his arms.

Yang Zhi was a little secretly delighted, staring at Xu Mingyuan's chin, and was in a daze.

Little Yangzhi was very obedient. He didn't move at all and his body was very light. If it weren't for the elegant fragrance he could smell, it would have been as if there was no such person in his arms.

Influenced by Xiao Yangzhi, Xu Mingyuan also became dazed for a moment, calculating what to do next and thinking about the future direction.

Just when I thought she was asleep, I looked down and saw her blinking her clear eyes at me.

"Get up, stop pestering people."

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi sat up by leaning on the mattress, then her body softened and she fell back, "Oh, my arm is numb..."

"Who told you not to move?"

Xu Mingyuan smiled and shook her arm, threw it aside, and got up himself.

After lying on the warm mattress in frustration for a while, Yang Zhi had to accept the reality that her brother was leaving.

The hardworking little Yangzhi helped Xu Mingyuan pack his things as soon as she got up.

I opened the closet, found some thicker clothes, folded them and put them in my bag.

The sheets and quilt covers that had been washed in the morning were already dry, but she still found the new sheets that she had prepared and packed them in.

Xiao Yangzhi did not miss the remaining space in the backpack and filled it with washed fruits.

After zipping up with great effort, Yang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and thought carefully about what else he needed to take.

Then she slapped her head, ran back to her room, and took out the crystal pendant she had made long ago.

She rummaged through the drawers and found a new red rope, then returned to the living room and sat next to Xu Mingyuan, quietly fiddling with the pendant.

"Hey, you're very skillful."

Seeing her carefully cutting the excess red rope with scissors and weaving it into a simple peace locket, Xu Mingyuan said with a little surprise.

"When I was a kid, I was bored, so I would find something to do. Like folding paper, weaving flowers. I watched other people do it a few times, and then I slowly figured it out and learned it."

Yang Zhi was weaving carefully. When she spoke of this, she suddenly recalled the days when she was locked in the rental house and couldn't help frowning.

"Really? You have a pretty smart little head."

Xu Mingyuan smiled and rubbed her hair.

"Hehe." Yang Zhi laughed, and then said with a little hesitation: "Later, my mother said that I was not doing my job properly and had no ambition, so she stopped me from doing it. Brother, do you think I am not doing my job properly?"

Yang Zhi raised her head, revealing her swan-like white neck, and asked with confusion.

"Haha, listen to your mother's nonsense. What is a proper job? What is an unprofessional job? Living a happy life is better than anything else."

"I knew my brother would say that."

Yang Zhi pursed her lips and said with a smile.

"Ha, you know I'm asking, but you're doing it on purpose, right?"

Seeing her smug and a little proud, Xu Mingyuan was very amused and hugged her into his arms. But Yang Zhi didn't have time to be happy, the scissors in her hand shook and cut off a piece of the red rope.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I cut it badly..."

Yang Zhi's face was depressed and she looked at Xu Mingyuan apologetically.

"I was the one who bumped into you, how can I blame you?" Xu Mingyuan was a little embarrassed, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, just take a piece off."

"But it's not as good-looking as what you just did..."

Yang Zhi started to feel conflicted again.

"It's all the same. How can anything be perfect? ​​There's always something wrong. Haven't you heard of that saying? Imperfection is also a kind of perfection." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Yeah, brother is right. I can't always stay by his side."

Yang Zhi nodded vigorously.

"Haha, you little girl are pointing at me, right?"

Xu Mingyuan snatched the scissors from Xiao Yangzhi's hand and threw them on the table, holding her face and shaking it left and right, making her ponytail swing.

"No, no, brother, that's what I really think..."

The water in Yang Zhi's head was almost shaken out, so he had to keep explaining.

After being released, Yang Zhi rubbed her red face and simply lay in Xu Mingyuan's arms, continuing to weave beads.

Because it was hung on the rearview mirror inside the car, a piece of red rope needed to be reserved. After Yang Zhi finished it, she always felt it was a bit uncoordinated.

Seeing her flipping through the book in her hand, Xu Mingyuan snatched it away and said, "It's also good if it's smaller. It looks like you."

"No, I'm not short..." Yang Zhi said in tangle.

"Look how thin you are. How come you are gone? You curl up like a little kid all day long."

"Then I won't shrink."

Yang Zhi stretched her squatting legs straight, trying hard to hook the edge of the coffee table. Finally, she had to move her body forward, and finally put her feet on the table, shaking her toes like Xu Mingyuan.

Xu Mingyuan found it funny and couldn't help but rub her little face again.

Yang Zhi really wanted to extend the time a little longer, but the time they spent together always passed very quickly.

After a simple dinner, Yang Zhi went to wash the dishes. Seeing Xu Mingyuan put his cell phone into his shoulder bag and put his schoolbag on his back, she hurried over.

"Brother, before you leave, can you give me a hug?"

"can."

Xu Mingyuan smiled and just as he opened his arms, a thin figure pounced over.

After a long while, Xiao Yangzhi took a half step back with red eyes.

Xu Mingyuan was relieved to see that she was much better than the last time they separated.

After a period of time, Xiao Yangzhi will no longer suffer from separation anxiety.

"Brother, the weather outside is bad, it looks like it's going to rain." Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

"Really? Then I have to leave quickly."

Xu Mingyuan glanced at the sky outside the window. It was a little darker than usual.

"..."

Yang Zhi opened her mouth slightly, feeling so stupid.

She actually wanted her brother to leave tomorrow morning, but she didn't expect that she would end up making things worse.

"You've been playing all day, so you haven't done your homework? Just do it at home. I won't keep you from doing it. You don't have to send me home."

"Oh, yeah, I brought back a test paper yesterday. Brother, how about you take me to school?"

Yang Zhi suddenly remembered that he had brought back half of the Chinese test paper yesterday and had not done a single stroke.

"It's okay. If you don't get it, don't write it. I'll call your teacher."

Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi was nervous and a little worried about being scolded, Xu Mingyuan smiled and said.

"That's not good, brother. I can just take a taxi back to school by myself. I won't bother you."

"Let's go together. I don't need these two steps to go."

"Ah."

Yang Zhi hurried back to her room and changed into her black and white school uniform.

She quietly took Xu Mingyuan's arm and left home with him.

Instead of staying at home for a night, why not spend ten more minutes with my brother...

Xu Mingyuan parked his car at Tao Shuxin's house yesterday, and took a taxi to take Xiao Yangzhi back to No. 3 Middle School.

Along the way, Xiao Yangzhi didn't say a word, just stayed quietly beside him, feeling the remaining time.

When they arrived at the gate of No. 3 Middle School, Xiao Yangzhi did not argue, but instead opened the car door first.

"Brother, remember to wear the peace locket."

After saying that, Yang Zhi waved his hand, turned around and ran into the school.

Xu Mingyuan, who had not yet had the chance to say goodbye to her, could only watch her disappear before his eyes.

There are boarding students in No. 3 Middle School, and the classes will not be closed during the holidays. Seeing little Yangzhi's anxious look, I'm afraid she will have to study all night again.

Xu Mingyuan shook his head and decided to give her a call when he arrived in Jiangcheng.

Tao Shuxin's home was not far from here, so she asked the taxi driver to turn around and go to Kanghua Home.

When Xu Mingyuan paid and got off the car, he saw Tao Shuxin waiting for him on the roadside.

"Oh, why are you so slow?"

Tao Shuxin's face was wrinkled into a little bun. She had long been annoyed by her mother's nagging.

"Hello, Teacher He."

"Yeah." He Qiong glanced at Tao Shuxin, nodded, and continued to say to her, "Remember what mom said, call me when you get to school."

"Okay, okay, I know."

Tao Shuxin was very impatient. She dragged the suitcase and threw it into the back seat, then pushed Xu Mingyuan away, not wanting him to stay here for long.

"Well, goodbye, Mr. He."

Xu Mingyuan wanted to talk a little more, but it was not appropriate to argue with Tao Shuxin in front of He Qiong, so he had to get in the car first.

"Go, go, go..."

Before Xu Mingyuan put away his luggage, Tao Shuxin kept urging him.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

Xu Mingyuan waved to He Qiong and started the car.

"What time is it? How can I not be anxious?"

Tao Shuxin snorted. Her mother had said too much and she didn't want to listen any more.

Of course, she would not tell Xu Mingyuan what her mother said.

"It's not like I can't go back. Come on, help me hang it up."

Xu Mingyuan said something, took out a peace locket from his pocket and threw it aside.

"Is it a peace locket? It's pretty nice."

Tao Shuxin took it, looked through it for a while, hung it in the rearview mirror, and then shifted all his attention to Xu Mingyuan's face.

Tao Shuxin was in love with him, and she missed him so much that she missed him every day.

"Huh? You were bitten by a mosquito?"

Tao Shuxin saw a small red dot on the back of Xu Mingyuan's neck and reached out to touch it.

The cold fingertips made Xu Mingyuan feel itchy. He dodged and said, "That's right. Can't you see I'm driving? Don't move."

"Oh!"

Tao Shuxin quickly retracted his hand, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Look, look, I've been bitten too. Mosquitoes are the most poisonous in autumn. They're so annoying..."
