【008】When he was young
When Xia Qi returned to the dormitory, Lu Xiaoxu, who was in the same dormitory, had not yet fallen asleep. Seeing her friend's pale face, she asked with concern, "What's going on? You look so ugly?"
"Maybe the night breeze will be a bit cold when you come back at night." She made a casual excuse, put down her bag and walked into the bathroom.
The bathroom mirror clearly reflected her pale face, even her lips had lost their color. In her ears, the words Jun Jinyan said when he sent her back echoed.
"Qiqi, I want you to like me and only me!"
Like...could she possibly fall in love with such a person? Even Xia Qi herself couldn't explain clearly what her feelings for Jun Jinyan were.
Sympathy? Pity? Hate... or fear?
Xia Qi will always remember the first time she saw Jun Jinyan when she was 6 years old. At that time, Jun Jinyan was like a quiet Barbie doll, following her all the way from the small park near her home.
She arrived at the door of the house, and finally even followed her into the house openly.
When she wanted to drive him away, he just kept grabbing the hem of her skirt without saying a word, his dark eyes were wet, like some kind of pitiful little animal.
He didn't like to talk, and there was no unnecessary expression on his pretty little face, just like a lifeless doll. But for some reason, he held her hand from beginning to end with an empty expression.
He looked at her with empty eyes.
There was no emotion or joy in that look, which made people feel uncomfortable. When she wanted to shake off his hand, he held it tighter, and even Xia's mother couldn't pull it away.
When cross-examination could not yield any information about him, Xia's mother had no choice but to take Xia Qi and Jun Jinyan to the police station near her home to report the crime.
When they arrived at the police station, they realized that things had already turned upside down. When the policemen saw Xia's mother and Jun Jinyan appear, their expressions were as if they had been granted amnesty.
The director of the police station also personally entertained Xia's mother, and a quarter of an hour later, a luxury car stopped at the door of the police station, and a pair of outstanding-looking men and women hurried in.
That was the first time Xia Qi saw Jun Jinyan's parents, but even after seeing her parents, Jun Jinyan's expression did not change at all. It was not until the parents were about to take Jun Jinyan away that his expression changed.
Finally there is a change.
When he held Xia Qi's arm tightly and refused to let go, and even started to howl and cry like an ordinary child, his parents stared blankly, with eyes full of disbelief.
Xia Qi only felt that her arm hurt. He was like a drowning person, holding on to the only piece of driftwood, eager and eager. Moreover, his tears kept falling on her arm.
I don't know why, but it makes her feel very hot.
"Don't cry!" Finally, she shouted and made him stop his tears.
His nose was red and twitching, and he looked at her with wet eyes.
In the end, it was Jun Jinyan's father. Jun Haizhou made the decision to let Jun Jinyan stay at Xia's house for one night and we would discuss other matters tomorrow.
It was only a long time later that Xia Qi learned that this man was the newly appointed mayor of City Z, and that their family was the Jun family, which was famous in the military and political circles.
That night, Jun Jinyan and Xia Qi slept on a small bed. His little body curled up into a ball, like a shrimp, and squeezed into her arms.
Unable to get rid of him or push him away, she could only hold him like a stuffed bear and fall asleep.
The next day, he transferred to her kindergarten and was in the same class as her. Behind her, it was like there was an extra little tail. He only loved to play with her. When she was building blocks, he was there.
