Tender as wild

Chapter 44 Dazzling You

No one can resist a man who loves himself and is excellent in all aspects.

White pears too.

She thought she was probably finished. She seemed to be uncontrollably resisting treating Fang Ye as a brother, but Fang Ye seemed to always care for her as a sister.

In the novel, the second female lead likes her brother, who is not related by blood, but it seems that he will not get a happy ending.

Baili knew that she didn't want to fall in love with Fang Ye, she was just afraid that Fang Ye would see through this emotion in the future.

Needless to say, she couldn't hide it from him.

Therefore, Fang Ye would stay away from her for fear of being discovered, thinking that she was a taboo and strange person.

Soon, Baili didn't want to think about it anymore.

She clearly knew that she could not control her emotions and could only resign herself to fate. With her heart beating feverishly in her chest, she lowered her eyelashes and missed Lingjiang, which was thousands of kilometers away.

Fang Ye didn't contact her again for a long time, so Bai Li simply turned off her phone and immersed herself in studying.

It went against Ms. Hu's will and she would not go home if she could. The reason was the same, and she could not delay her studies.

……

The leaves in Jiangcheng turned yellow unknowingly, ginkgo leaves were scattered all over the ground, there was an autumn rain and a cold, the last day of December, Friday, was Baili's birthday.

In the past, no one took this day seriously.

It happened to snow that day, and everyone in the family went out to play in the lake next door.

Baili stood in the dormitory, packing her luggage and preparing to go back. She also happened to need some thick clothes.

Just as she walked out of the school gate, the management aunt of the dormitory stopped her sharply and brought her a courier, "Are you Baili? Your package has been here for several days. Take it back today. Auntie is going home. .”

Bai Li was about to refute that she didn't buy anything, but after seeing her name on the courier, she swallowed her words back and said thank you.

The first snow of winter fell on her birthday, and Bai Li was in a good mood. After returning home, she found a knife and opened the express box.

Inside is a very beautiful jade bracelet.

Bai Li doesn't know much about jade, but she can also tell that it is very good to grow water. The color is unobtrusive and light, making it very suitable for little girls to wear.

She carefully picked up the bracelet.

At that moment.

She almost remembered someone.

In order to verify this answer, she picked up her mobile phone and took a photo of the bracelet, sent it to Fang Ye, and asked:
  [Brother, did you give this to me? 】

The shipping address on the express delivery note had been blurred by the wet water, otherwise she wouldn't have asked more questions.

Within a few minutes, her phone suddenly vibrated. She raised it and glanced at it. It was a video call from Fang Ye.

……

Bai Li felt that her heartbeat, which had been silent for a long time, gradually accelerated again.

After being stunned for a while, she quickly clicked the green connect button and quickly found a suitable angle.

Just when he raised his eyes, Fang Ye's face appeared on the screen.

There was a nice curve at the corner of his lips, and his eyebrows were clear and cold. The phone had not changed his face. His high nose tip and smooth facial contours made every angle look good.

Before she could speak, Fang Ye had already spoken.

His lazy voice was a little unreal due to the current.

"Bai Li, happy birthday, do you like the bracelet?"

"Yeah! I like it, thank you brother."

Baili's heart beat rapidly and her voice reached her throat, and her voice was a little rushed. Carefully put the bracelet into the screen and show it to Fang Ye. She heard that jade bracelets were very expensive, and she didn't want Fang Ye to spend too much money. She couldn't help but ask, "Brother, is this bracelet expensive?"

Fang Ye raised his eyebrows in surprise, poked at the screen with his slender fingers, and said with a warm smile: "Who taught you to ask people for the price of gifts? What, you want to sell it?"

There was a hint of ridicule in his words.

Baili was afraid that he would misunderstand, so she quickly shook her head and said with a serious face: "I won't sell it. What I mean is that if the bracelet is too expensive, I will subsidize you. After all, you didn't eat my birthday cake, so I will accept it unilaterally." Your gift is not very good."

"..."

After hearing this, Fang Ye smiled, his eyes fell on the dim light behind her before she could turn on, and asked softly: "Then do you have cake to eat today?"

Bai Li was stunned, not expecting him to ask this.

I thought about the breakfast I had in the cafeteria this morning. It happened to be a cake dough that cost 2 yuan per serving. It was triangular in shape, a little dry, but very sweet. It could also be considered a cake, right? That's not a lie, right?

Think about it this way.

Baili felt more confident, and she nodded firmly: "Yes, I ate cake today."

Fang Ye's eyes were always looking at her, with very gentle eyes. Only when facing Bai Li, he would be like a warm brother.

He raised his hand and smiled: "Go back to Lingjiang next time. Brother will buy you delicious cakes."

"it is good."

Looking at the expectant look in the girl's eyes, Fang Ye scrolled to the food delivery app, where there was an order that had been scheduled for delivery to Private No. 1 Middle School since the morning, but no rider had taken the order until the afternoon.

The wind and snow in Jiangcheng were too heavy and the traffic was very congested. Many riders were unwilling to risk their work.

Bai Li thought of something and left the screen for the next second. She took out a few monthly exam sheets from her schoolbag and displayed them under the screen.

"elder brother."

"Ok?"

Bai Li pointed to her name on it and said with a smile: "I got into the top ten of my grade. I heard that you are in Qingdao University. I also asked about it. It is a very powerful school. I am working hard to go to school with you." A school, next summer, I will definitely come to you with my transcript."

She solemnly exchanged promises with Fang Ye, taking every word she said very seriously.

She thought that by then, she would be able to control her life, get closer to the goal she had promised, and...

It can also be closer to Fang Ye.

Fang Ye paused and looked at the report card carefully. He suddenly remembered the day the girl arrived in Lingjiang for the first time. The wind and rain poured down on her body, and her eyes were so determined.

His eyebrows became gentler, and he put out the cigarette in his hand. There was a scar on his wrist bone that would not be covered in the future, and he looked at her:
  "Xiao Baili, I'm waiting for you."

……

My birthday is almost over at midnight.

Bai Li was lying on the bed hugging the quilt, with the jade bracelet given to her by Fang Ye hanging on her wrist. The cold and gentle touch made her couldn't help but curl her eyes.

His thoughts gradually wandered, and he thought of dreams about the future.

If it is true, Fang Ye will definitely be dazzling in the future.

Although Fang Ye is already very dazzling now.

People have phototaxis and subconsciously want to be close to bright and warm things.

She couldn't selfishly demand that her brother would always be hers.

But she wanted to take as long as possible.

Follow his footsteps.

I think every year, I can hear him say: "Happy birthday."
