Chapter 1 She has grown up
n 2009, Tongcheng, the home of Huo family.
Late at night, there was silence in the mansion. Mu Shao carefully opened the door and went downstairs and into the kitchen.
At dinner, Huo Bainian and Mrs. Huo Cheng Manshu quarreled again, and a room full of Huo family members didn't know what to do, let alone her little orphan girl who was fostered here. Mu shallow can only hide in his room, even didn't eat dinner. But in the middle of the night at the moment is really hungry, exactly is the time to grow up, longed for shallow failed to carry hungry.
When I opened the refrigerator, I found only two pieces of white toast, which was better than nothing.
Suddenly a strong light flashed outside the window and someone drove home.
Mu Shao skillfully hid behind the kitchen door, listening to the movement while chewing toast.
The hall door was pushed open and familiar footsteps came.
Mu Shao listened to the sound and counted his steps. When he counted to thirty, he leaned out of the kitchen.
The moonlight is thick, white and cold, and it falls in the room like a room full of frost.
The man walked through the frost, looking like Bai Yang, slender and tall, and the frost fell on his broad shoulders, blending in without any trace.
Mu looked shallow for a moment, retracted his head, and contentedly continued to chew toast.
I haven't seen him for almost a week. Mu Shao thought he wouldn't see him today, but he came back.
She hid the silk in her heart, ate the last bite of bread silently, clapped her hands, listened to the silence outside, and opened the door and went out.
Just out of the kitchen, looked up and longed for shallow froze there.
In the middle of the winding stairs, Huo Jinxi, who has taken off his suit and coat, is leaning on the handrail to smoke, with a casual and relaxed posture, which is no longer the usual meticulous and sharp appearance. One room was bright and fell on his pure white shirt, with a faint aperture and a hazy figure, which seemed unreal and true.
Mu Qian stood at the door of the kitchen like a frightened deer.
HuoJinXi turned in her direction.
The dim moonlight outlines his delicate three-dimensional facial lines, but his clear eyes are hidden in the dark.
He seems to be looking at her, or … waiting for her.
Desire for shallow time some at a loss, bright and clean thin arm unconsciously on the back, nervously squeezed his hand, and then took to the stairs.
Go to the front of HuoJinXi, longed for shallow look up, this just see his eyebrow eye.
He was looking at her, his eyes were thin and interesting, and his mouth seemed to smile, but it was not obvious.
"Didn't you eat enough at night?" He asked.
"hmm."
Huo Jinxi looked at her thin shoulders.
"What about now?"
"I ate two pieces of toast and I was full." Mu Qian answered truthfully.
Huo Jinxi continued to smoke, and the little scarlet between his fingers flashed out, reflecting a faint smile on his lips.
"It's so good to feed." He said.
Mu shallow also don't know if this sentence is good or bad, lift eyes to look at him.
HuoJinXi just looked at her, eyes deep, no longer speak.
Mu shallow gradually began to feel a little uncomfortable, withdrew his eyes and turned to go upstairs, but who knew that he stepped on the air and planted it top-heavy!
HuoJinXi nimble, throw away the cigarette butts, stretched out his right hand to catch her.
The palm is unexpectedly soft.
Mu shallow froze, and Huo Jinxi did not move at the moment.
The whole body blood rushed to the top of the head and longed for shallowness to return to absolute being. At that moment, thousands of thoughts turned in her mind, and her brain and heart were clearly in a state of extreme chaos, but her body miraculously calmed down.
She didn't dodge, didn't avoid, just turned and met Huo Jinxi's line of sight.
Mu Shao has a pair of deer eyes, clear eyes, and there seems to be light in the eyes under the moonlight.
That mercerization was clearly born for him.
Huo Jinxi gazed.
That year, she was 17 and he was 25.
Huo Jinxi realized for the first time that the little girl who came to Huo's home at the age of 10 had grown up.
A year later.
In May 2010, Mu Qian was 18 years old and was about to enter the college entrance examination.
The breeze passed through the forest, and the light-colored curtains moved with the wind. Mu Shao was lying on his desk, counting the hands turning round and round on his watch.
On the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the Huo family's customary family dinner day, everyone in the Huo family should be there.
I am looking forward to it in my heart, but I dare not expect it too much.
In the past year, Huo Jinxi seems to be getting busier and busier, often not going home for two or three weeks.
Mu Qian kept the habit of adding meals at night from a year ago, but rarely saw him late at night again. The last time we met, it was more than a month ago.
The minute hand turned three times, and a black car drove into the Huo family gate.
Mu shallow suddenly stood up and looked at the car from far and near and stopped in front of the court.
A minute later, Huo Jinxi pushed the door and got off.
Mu shallow turned to the outside of the room and came to the stairs. She stopped, looked down at her whole body, took a deep breath, and then walked down.
When her figure appeared on the stairs, Huo Jinxi just pushed the door and pushed in.
There are many people in the living room. Mrs. Huo Cheng Manshu and two aunts are sitting on the sofa chatting, two uncles and three uncles are sitting together to taste red wine, and several younger brothers and sisters are playing a new somatosensory game in front of the TV ... amid the uproar, Mr. Huo Jinxi saw at a glance the longing standing on the stairs.
On the first day of eighteen, Mu Shao tried on a red skirt for the first time.
The weather in May is still a little cool. The sleeveless skirt is only above the knee and the chest is a little low, but it perfectly outlines the curve ups and downs that an adult woman should have. The rich and warm colors make her skin white, but her eyes are more radiant.
Mu Shao was born with excellent appearance since he was a child. After entering adolescence, he became more and more clear-cut and radiant. Fortunately, his deer eyes were clean and clear, washing away the charm.
This appearance should be matched with the strongest and full colors, so she looks good in red.
Mu Shiming knew that this dress would make many people in this room unhappy, but he was still willful.
On the first day of adulthood, she wanted to be the best of herself, just to please one person.
HuoJinXi looked at her, eyes deep and quiet.
Desire for shallow to meet his eyes, standing on his heartbeat slowly down the stairs.
Huo Jinxi still stood at the door. When Mu Qian walked down the last step, Huo Jinxi looked back, turned to the door and held out his hand.
The next moment, he came in holding a girl's hand.
"My girlfriend, Ye Jingwei." Huo Jinxi spoke to the people in the living room.
Everyone immediately looked at the door and looked at the girl who was held by Huo Jinxi.
No one pays attention to Mu Shao anymore.
She was the most dazzling presence in the room, but at that moment, she lost all her colors.
