Kneeling for a whirlwind and a hundred herbs (that is, the germination of the heart) final edition

I have the latest serial here, but it's not over yet.

Chapter 9

For the first time in his life, Bai Cao began to worry about what clothes to wear.

Tonight, Ting Hao asked her to accompany him to a party and told her to dress up beautifully. Dress up ... she almost never dresses up, except when her hair is long. Sometimes she wears a ponytail and a strawberry headband.

She wants to consult Xiaoying.

But Xiaoying went to the playground with her classmates this morning.

"Let me see."

Knowing her distress, I looked at her for a while and smiled and said:

"You wait for me."

Just after a little rain, the afternoon wind is fresh and cool, and the air is filled with the smell of grass, which is fragrant and moist.

In front of the hut.

On the bench next to the nursery.

White grass looked at Chu Yuan in surprise and took out a set of hairdressing tools from the room.

"It should be more beautiful to trim it."

His fingers moved her hair so gently that she suddenly blushed and bowed her head. Scissors trimmed her hair in the breeze. He trimmed it carefully, stopped to have a look from time to time, and then brushed her hair.

Fine hairs are falling off.

There are birds singing on the big banyan tree not far away.

"ugly ... is it?"

"Huh?"

"That day ... you just came home ... you saw my hair ... it felt ugly ... didn't it?" Her head is down to her chest.

Sweeping the broken hair that fell on her neck, Chu Yuan had a smile in her voice: "That day, you ran out unhappily and didn't notice your hair."

She froze.

Raise your head slowly.

Because Aunt Ting laughed at her hair in front of him and was sad for a long time. But, as a result, he didn't notice her at all that day? :

"I just think you have grown a lot, but you are still as thin as before." Afraid of broken hair falling on the skin, Chu Yuan pulled up the cloth around her neck. I remember telling you before going to America that you should eat well and pay attention to nutrition. You forgot, didn't you "

"No ... I didn't forget!" She shook her head in despair. "I eat very full every meal. Aunt Fan is very kind to me. She always cooks a lot for Xiaoying and me. I also eat a lot, but no matter how I eat, I can't get fat ... "

Fix her head.

After studying for a while, Chu Yuan began the final finishing.

"At the beginning of the elder brother ..."

She bit her lip and looked at him with black eyes:

"... I remember everything you said, but I haven't forgotten it. I didn't study hard, didn't eat well, and practiced hard every day. Even when I met difficulties, I never felt depressed. I've been trying. "

Chu Yuan's hand stopped.

Rub the top of her hair hard.

"Silly girl!"

Looking at her, his eyes are as warm as the lake in spring.

"Look, isn't it more beautiful?"

Chu Yuan smiled and put the little mirror in her hand. Holding the mirror, she was surprised to find herself in the mirror very different from before. Short or long hair is neatly trimmed, and there is a circular arc against her face. He also cut a Liu Haier for her, which was very delicate, but it didn't completely block her eyes.

"When I was in the United States, I often cut my classmates' hair, and the craft was practiced. Not bad, huh? I'll cut your hair when it grows. "

"hmm."

She blushed and looked at herself in the mirror. She was so happy that she didn't know what to do. Suddenly, she thought of something. She stood up and flew out.

"I'll get something!"

Like a deer, after a while, she came back panting. Chu Yuan laughed at her, told her not to be in such a hurry, and poured her a glass of water. She only took a sip, then put down her glass and held out her palm to him.

"Look!"

There is a strawberry hairpin in her hand, a long clip, and a small crystal strawberry at the top, which is as shiny as her eyes at the moment.

In front of the mirror, she carefully pinned the hairpin on Liu Haier.

"Is it nice?"

"Good-looking."

Chu origin nodded.

"I ... I like it very much."

Bright eyes, she blushed.

Black short hair

Reflecting strawberry hairpin, bright and red. Her cheeks are red, too, a little shy, a little shy.

Chu Yuan slightly palpitation.

He knows this strawberry hairpin. I met her at the night market on the first day of my return to China. She and Ruobai stood in front of a jewelry booth, and it was it that she and Ruobai looked at.

He often thought of her when he was in America.

However, every time I make an international call to Aunt Fan, she is always out, and almost every time I go out with Ruobai. After returning home, he also found that she and Ruobai were almost inseparable.

In her memory, she has always been that 14-year-old girl with indomitable tenacity and stubbornness. He likes the strength in her, the strength he has given up, but it is endless in her.

I think she is my sister.

So he wants to take care of her as much as possible.

However, when I return home, I will see her again.

Although it is as simple as it was three years ago. Stubborn, but sometimes she blushes slightly, but he can't help but look a little absent-minded

I don't like inner confusion and complicated emotions.

Plus, he has just returned to China, and there are many things. He just moved into school a while ago, trying to calm down and figure out what's wrong with him.

"At the beginning of the elder brother ..."

I haven't heard his voice for a long time. White grass raised her eyelashes and looked at him awkwardly. She didn't know where to put her hand.

"Very beautiful."

Original asked with a smile:

"Is to go out on a date with if white? So dressed so carefully. "

"……"

She was stunned.

And then suddenly react!

Blood rushed to her face, even her ears were burning! Remembering the blind date that Aunt Ting said at the night market, she quickly explained, but she was so anxious that she couldn't even say clearly:

"... I'm not ... I'm not going out with Brother Ruobai ... No ... No ... I've never been with Brother Ruobai ..."

"Ding Ling-Ding Ling-"

The phone rang, Chuhara looked at it, and Baicao closed his mouth stupefied. At first, I seemed to hesitate, and I connected the phone.

"... yes, that's me. "

"... well, yes. "

In the nursery after the rain, the leaves of herbs are condensed with clear water drops, and the air is filled with faint fragrance. Although the voice from the phone is not big, white grass can still vaguely recognize that the girl talking to Chu Yuan is Aunt Ting.

White grass bowed his head.

"... tonight? "Originally thoughtfully.

We talked for a long time on the other end of the phone.

"... well, I see ... ok, see you tonight. "

White grass stared at his toes dimly. Chu Yuan after put away the phone, barely smiled, bowed to him and said:

"Chu Yuan elder brother, thank you for cutting my hair. I'll go first. "

"White grass ..." Chu Yuan stopped her.

She turned and looked at him stupefied.

"Nothing ..." He smiled. "... you don't have to dress up, you are beautiful. "

At night.

Silver-white lotus sports cars are speeding on the road. Outside the window, rows of bright street lamps recede. Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Yan Hao nodded. He looked at the grass on the passenger seat.

Her hair was neatly combed, and Liu Haier wore a lovely strawberry hairpin. She was wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of dark blue trousers. Although the clothes are very old, they are clean and smell of soap full of sunshine.

Feel his eyes, grass bouquet nervously sit up straight and ask:

"I am like this, can I?"

Xiaoying came back before she left. I heard that Yan Hao's predecessor wanted her to dress up and go out. She immediately dived into the closet and rummaged for a while, and took out a skirt for her to wear. That skirt is Xiaoying's favorite, and it is inlaid with beautiful lace. However, after she put it on, she felt uncomfortable all over.

Xiaoying also scratched his head.

Finally, she came out wearing the latest clothes.

"You have grown up."

Yan Hao looked back and said with a smile.

Does this mean yes or no? She waited for a while. She doesn't understand. Although Yan Hao didn't tell her where she was going, she didn't know why she needed to dress up, but since it was Yan Hao's request, she hoped to do so.

Running all the way.

Lotus sports car stopped in front of a luxury hotel, and Bai Cao was about to get off. Yan Hao said:

"Wait a minute."

After he got down from the driver's seat, he bypassed the white grass door and opened it for her. He stretched out his right hand to him like a gentleman, and his smile suddenly made her shine.

"Go away, my grass."

Wait for a while and look at his hand quietly. White grass looks up and looks at him later. Yan Hao smiled helplessly.

I had to reach in and grab her shoulder and pull her out.

"Let's go!"

"After a while, you will feel that those people in it don't exist." Whispering in her ear, Ting Yun grabbed her by the shoulder and took her to the banquet hall of the hotel.

The smell in my ears makes white grass a little cramped.

She has never had an intimate relationship with any boy.

Before I understood what that sentence meant, the hotel waiter opened the door of the banquet hall, and she was shocked by the splendor and jewels coming from there.

Only when watching TV dramas with Xiaoying has she seen such a scene.

Gorgeous crystal chandelier.

A long table covered with a white tablecloth is filled with shiny silver plates, sparkling wine glasses and all kinds of exquisite and lovely meals.

The band is playing melodious music.

There are so many well-dressed guests, especially beautiful girls, who are wearing evening dresses as thin as cicadas, with bright eyes, jade skin and elegant fragrance. When the door of the banquet hall opened, all the beautiful girls' eyes came and fell beside her.

White grass didn't notice this.

Senior Ting Yun also wore a formal black dress tonight. The material is warm and thick, which makes him look handsome and elegant, with a dazzling light like the sun. She looked down at her and said in her ear, "Come with me and don't say anything."

Passing through the beautiful girls, Bai Cao was led by his left hand and walked all the way to the place with the most guests in the banquet hall. There was a middle-aged man with a glass in his hand and surrounded by other male guests. He was elegant and cultured.

"Dad."

Hold the white grass's left hand tightly, and Ting Yun walked towards the middle-aged. After apologizing to the other guests, the middle-aged man turned and walked towards them. Bai Cao was surprised to find that Listening Cloud and Ding Yi all looked like him. It should be that Ting Yun inherited the toughness and handsomeness of his brow, while the court art inherited the elegance and elegance of his outline.

However, the middle-aged man's expression is gloomy, which makes him look older than his actual age.

"Dad. Happy birthday! "

Let go of her hand, Ting Yun stepped forward and hugged the middle-aged man.

"You finally knew you were coming."

Fang Shiji has a deep voice and does not forgive his majesty.

"Of course I will come. Tonight is my dear father's fiftieth birthday. " Ting Yun smiled and said, "Use H &;; The cooperation of M company has also been discussed, and the contract has been placed in your office, so it is a bit late. "

"hmm." The keystone nodded.

"Aunt Ting hasn't come yet?" Glancing at the audience, I didn't see the court instrument. Ting Yun said with a smile, "Aunt Ting was finally locked up in the Dojo by her grandfather. It's hard to get out. Even I haven't seen her for a long time. However, Dad, don't worry, Ting Yi is so smart that she will definitely find a way to come here. "

"If she doesn't need to come, she will stay in the Xianbudokan forever and don't go home again."

Fang Shiji's face fell.

"Dad, if I hear you say that, Christine should be very sad. She called me specially two days ago, saying that she had prepared a birthday present for you and reminded me not to forget it today. "

Fang Shiji looked a little slow, then looked at the white grass that had been silent, stood beside Ting Yun and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am ..."

White grass quickly bowed and tried to answer, but his left arm was suddenly caught by Ting Yun, and his voice had to get stuck in his throat.

"She is Qi Baicao, a birthday present for my father."

Ting Yun ha ha laughs.

"Nonsense!"

Stone base is thin and angry.

"Really," Ting Yun put her arms around the grass on the shoulder. "Dad, haven't you always wanted me to have a girlfriend? Don't worry anymore, she is. "

White grass looked up at Ting Yun in surprise!

Ting Yun gave her a look, and her right hand clenched her shoulder harder, but her voice was still gentle: "White grass, this is my father. Just call us uncle. "

…………

In the noodle restaurant, Ting Yun said, "Well, do me a favor first ..."

…………

He looked down at her and said in her ear, "Come with me and don't say anything."

…………

"... Uncle Fang. "

White grass struggled in her heart and bowed deeply to the stone foundation, but she didn't hear a response for a long time. She stood up uneasily and saw Shi Ji frowning and looking at her with critical eyes.

"Teacher Qi?"

"... call me white grass. "

"How old are you?"

"seventeen years old."

"Going to college or high school?"

"Grade two," she added, "will be in grade three after the summer vacation."

"Nonsense!" Fang Shiji glared at Ting Yun angrily. "What girlfriend? She is still a high school student! "

"What's the matter with high school students? I'm only a few years older than her, "Ting Yun smiled casually. "I prefer her silly appearance to making friends with those lovely daughters."

White grass blushed with embarrassment.

Looking at her, Fang Shiji is actually not as dissatisfied as he shows. Although this girl is a little simple and behind the times, her red cheeks and pure eyes are as fresh as oxygen that has never been polluted.

However, when Fang Shiji noticed her slim figure and slender and powerful limbs, she asked warily, "Have you ever practiced Taekwondo?"

"yes."

"Do you still practice now?" Fang Shiji frowned.

"Still practicing."

"Like Tingting, she is also a member of Shen Ning's coaching team," Ting Yun interjected. "She is a great player. Last time she beat Aunt Ting. Aunt ting was shut down for training by external public relations. How's it going? Is my girlfriend excellent? "

Fang Shiji glanced at Ting Yun coldly.

Ting Yun has a sunny smile on his face.

"Teacher Qi, you are welcome to come and have fun." Although Fang Shiji looked worried, he politely said to White Grass, "Sorry, I have other guests to entertain. Please leave first. "

"Come on, let's get something to eat."

Holding Bai Cao's shoulder and diverting her attention from her father's cold figure, Ting Yun took her to the dining table on one side of the banquet hall and said, "Don't ask yet, I'll explain it to you later."

White grass had to restrain his doubts. When she walked to the table, she was stunned by the exquisite dishes on the table. On the white tablecloth, there are pieces of small west pastry, one bite at a time, so beautiful and lovely that people can't bear to eat it, and there are many things that she can't name.

"Come on, try this."

Pick up a piece of sashimi from the ice tray, dip it in green mustard and pass it to her. Sashimi is delicate in texture and delicious in mouth. However, suddenly a pungent smell came to the sight, making her tears come out!

"Shut up and exhale through your nose!"

Ting Yun hurriedly brought her a napkin.

"Well ..."

She was dizzy from the heat and her nose felt terrible. She took a few breaths as hard as he taught her before she recovered.

"I forgot to remind you that green mustard is very spicy." Ting Yun smiled and helped her wipe away the spicy tears. "What happened? Is that okay? "

"I ... want to eat another slice."

But it is delicious. White grass carefully dipped a little less mustard this time.

So she ate a lot of sashimi, and under the introduction of Ting Yun, she ate foie gras, caviar, cheesecake and many other things that she had never eaten before. I ate so happily that my stomach swelled. Listening to Ting Yun's allusions about various foods, she was no longer formal, and her mouth smiled.

Until Ting Yun looked at the banquet hall door and said:

"Aunt Ting is here. You can eat by yourself first. I'll be back later."

Looking at Fang Ting's past direction, White Grass found that not only Tingyi came, but also Chu Yuan came together. Tingting is dressed in a white strapless tulle skirt with long hair flowing all over the floor and a diamond crown on it. In the bright light, flashing, as luxurious and beautiful as a princess. Chu Yuan is also wearing a white dress, which is beautiful, elegant and gentle. He stood beside Aunt Ting, just like a prince in a fairy tale.

White grass felt a bitter taste.

Looking down, she saw the sandals on her feet that she bought for ten dollars. Sandals have been worn for two years, and the front has been glued. She sewed them up with the strongest thread. Although she sewed them carefully, she could still see the traces of the thread.

In front of her father, Aunt Ting is sweet and charming. I don't know what she said, which made him laugh. Her eyes are full of love for her daughter. From a distance, White Grass saw that Ting Yun's father seemed to be familiar with Chu Yuan, and he could see his appreciation for Chu Yuan from his expression.

Ting Yun patted Chu Yuan on the shoulder.

Seems to be poking fun at Chu Yuan and aunt ting.

Aunt ting blushed and spoiled her brother. Chu Yuan turned his back on the white grass, and she couldn't see Chu Yuan's expression.

Sashimi is also a little astringent.

It's hard to swallow. White grass won't let itself go there again. She doesn't like who she is. It seems that ugly jealousy is eroding her and making her feel very annoying.

If you envy others, you should work hard. Dark emotions can only make you worse and worse. Thinking of what Ruobai said to her, her heart slowly calmed down.

"There you are."

Aunt Christine's surprised voice rang around her. She hesitated for a moment, put down the plate, and said to aunt Chu Yuan and Christine who were coming side by side:

"Brother Chu Yuan, Da Tingyi."

"So there you are," Chu Yuan smiled and looked at the food she had just taken. "Don't eat too much raw fish, be careful of your stomachache, and drink sake to sterilize." With that, he went to the other end of the table to get her sake.

"Don't call me Aunt Ting in the future, as if I were very old." Aunt Ting Gherardini, "Did my brother bring you here?"

"yes."

White grass looked at it, and Fang Ting stayed where he was, talking to Fang Shiji.

"What did my brother bring you here for?"

"He ..."

I don't know what to say, but when I think that Ting Yun's elder just introduced her as his girlfriend, Bai Cao shook his head awkwardly.

"What if you're not dating a white man? Why are you with my brother? "

"I have never dated Ruobai's brother."

White grass is in a hurry, and his face has a fever.

Aunt Christine sighed.

"Herb, I always thought you were a simple girl, but I'm a little disappointed in you now. You asked Ruobai to do so much for you, but you were with my brother, and you asked my brother to take you to see my dad. Do you think this makes sense to Ruobai? "

"I told you, I have never dated Brother Ruobai!" White grass said stiffly, "if Parker brother is my brother. We don't have a date. We really don't have a date. Please don't say that about us again! "

"Wow."

Aunt Christine shook her head, looked her up and down and sighed.

"Well, that's your private affairs, I shouldn't care. However, since you are with my brother, how can you dress like this? "

"I ... I ..." White grass blushed.

"As for you should wear a skirt," Aunt Ting frowned. "This is the minimum respect for the banquet."

It's like being punched hard by a sap!

White grass just stood, her chest suffocating. She felt like a fool and couldn't say a word.

"I didn't tell her that I was coming to the party."

Ting Yun's voice sounded from behind her, and he patted her on the shoulder consolingly. White grass leaned stiffly and took her hand off her shoulder.

"White grass is prepared very carefully," Chu Yuan also heard, and he said in a heavy voice. "Just, Ting Yun, you should tell Bai Cao in advance that you are going to the party tonight, otherwise it will embarrass her."

"Yes, I was wrong." Ting Yun touched his nose and smiled shyly. "I dare not tell her, so she won't come."

"Ah, coach Shen Ning is here."

Ding Yi low shout a loud, I saw a dark red cheongsam Shen Ning is entering the banquet hall, to the direction of the square stone base. Yi Ding took Ting Yun's arm and said, "Come on, let's talk to coach Shen Ning!"

Looking at the still stiff and silent white grass, Ting Yun smiled and said, "You go, I want to make amends to the guests."

Sip sip lips, aunt ting took Chu Yuan's arm again: "I really can't stand these two people, disgusting. Come on, brother Chu Yuan, let's go there and leave them alone. "

"Go, go, don't be a third wheel."

Tingting tugged at Chu Yuan and walked to Shen Ning.

Finally, only listening to clouds and white grass are left.

I want to go back.

Gloomily, white grass said, without looking at the back of two people. Ting Yun looked at her for a few seconds and said, "OK, let's go."

The night wind is cool

Rows of street lamps are as bright as stars, silently watching the neon lights flashing outside the window. I don't know how long it took Whitegrass to be shocked. This is not the way back to Bai Songdao Pavilion.

Lotus sports car parked on the bank of the Red River.

Because it is late at night, there are few pedestrians on the shore.

The river tinkled gently.

Sitting in the front seat of the Lotus sports car, the slender body saw the white grass coming out of the car. Ting Yun patted her and motioned for her to sit there.

The stars in the night sky are like lights.

"Thank you." Ting Yun said to her.

"No need." White grass shook his head.

"I said to my father, you are my girlfriend. Are you startled? " Looking up at the starry sky, he bent his lips.

"Well, I'm shocked," she paused. "However, you are still at school. Why is Uncle Fang in such a hurry to introduce you to his girlfriend? " There are so many beautiful girls in the banquet hall that every girl's eyes are around him.

"He ..."

Ting Yun smiled.

He knew that his father wanted him to take back his heart from Taekwondo completely, so he had to take up not only his work and study time, but also his private time.

"Not anymore, because I already have a girlfriend." Turning to look at her, the strawberry hairpin in her hair sparkled under the starlight, so cute that he suddenly wanted to touch it.

"Well," White Grass nodded, "Uncle Fang doesn't like me, and I'm sure I won't mention letting you have a girlfriend again."

"I'm sorry."

"eh?"

"Or, I should have told you beforehand."

"No," she smiled shyly. "As you said, if you had told me in advance, maybe I wouldn't have dared to come."

"Will it really come?"

"..." He wondered, "If it's important to you, I might ... come, but then I'll at least put on a skirt." Even Xiaoying's skirt is uncomfortable for her.

Ting Yun smiled.

"I'd rather you didn't change. You are so beautiful tonight. "

beautiful ...

White grass blushed awkwardly, and for a moment she felt that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

In the dim light of night, he looked at him and suddenly casually asked:

"Do you like Ruobai?"

"eh?"

She is listening stupidly.

"Do you like white? Are you dating him? "

"no!"

She shook her head quickly. Why did Aunt Ting say that? That's what he said. So brother Chu Yuan will feel the same way? Suddenly remind of in the afternoon, when my brother asked-

…………

"Is to go out on a date with if white? So dressed so carefully. "

…………

"If so, do you like Chu Yuan?" He still casually asked:

She paused for a moment, then quickly turned red and shook her head crazily, but couldn't say a word. Her heart is pounding and she can't wait to get into it.

"So, do you have any other boys you like?"

"…………"

She looked at him with a red face and wondered why he kept asking such questions.

"Is there?"

He stared at her as if it was natural to ask her that way.

"...No." Don't like to talk about this topic, she bit her lip. "Senior Ting Yun, I want to go back to the museum."

"Then associate with me."

The night wind is blowing from the river, and Ting Yun's eyes are shining with bright stars. He looked at her, and she was in the most dazzling place of the stars.

She just looked at him.

I don't understand what he is saying.

"how about it? Where did you go with old Ting Yun? Is it fun? " Back to the Taoist temple, Xiaoying asked curiously and waved in front of her. "Hey, I'm back in my soul. What are you doing? Why are you so absent-minded? "

"…………"

White grass just looked at Xiaoying.

"What's the matter?" Xiaoying cocked his head and looked at her. "Although I usually stay, it is rare to stay like this."

"Say it! Say it! "

Xiaoying shook her hard.

"Please, if you don't tell me, I'll be very anxious and I won't be able to sleep! Did old Ting Yun bully you? Well, that's impossible. Don't-ah, gnome male-",don't you have a date with Ting Yun? "

White grass just opened its mouth and could not speak.

…………

"Don't be so surprised," Sho. The night wind blew in waves, and Ting Yun smiled and held his hand. "Actually, I don't know what kind of love I have for you, so let's try to communicate first, shall we?"

"…………"

Her throat was choked with shock.

"Do you remember? You provoked me first, "clenched her fingers, and his strength made her unable to move at all. "You knocked me down and almost kissed me, well, twice."

"That ... that was careless, I didn't mean to!"

"I've been waiting for your third carelessness," the night wind swept the river, "but I didn't wait together."

He smiled.

"Just waiting for the other side to attack will often delay the opportunity, so I decided to take the initiative."

"I ..." She blushed. "... I don't want to. "

"Don't think about what?"

"... I don't want to ..." She said those words with difficulty and shyness. "... I don't want to fall in love. "She is only seventeen years old. She will be a senior three after the summer vacation. She should prepare for the college entrance examination, train hard and strive for the qualification to participate in the World Championships. It never occurred to her ...

"Who said anything about falling in love with you?" Ting Yun ha ha laughs.

"……"

She was shocked again.

"Let's date first, see how much I like you, see if you like me, you can date for one year, you can date for two years, you can wait for you to go to college, you can wait for you to graduate from college, and you can wait for you to finish all the things you want to do."

The street lamp is very bright.

The stars are bright.

There is a slow night wind on the river bank.

There are swaying shadows of weeping willows.

"Wait until one day, I found that I still like you very much, and you found that you like me very much. Only in this way can we ... "He coughed at night," ... begin to fall in love. "

"Quick say! Say it! Say it quickly! " Xiaoying urged one after another, "I'll break up with you if you don't tell me!" "

White grass washed his face and wrapped it in a towel. He has a deep voice: "I can't say."

"poof!" Xiao fireflies vomiting blood, "good you, angry with me, dare to talk to me like this! I tell you, I really broke up with you! Break up! Are you scared? Is really dear John-"

Herbs are not afraid.

I have been threatened by Xiaoying countless times. She knows Xiaoying is a paper tiger.

But tossing and turning, listening to the quiet insects outside the window, remembering what Ting Yun said by the river, she stared blankly at the ceiling in the dark. So, is this the legendary communication?
