Chapter 65 Some Promises, I Can’t Give You Now

Cheng Xiaoyue climbed to the rooftop and climbed up the hillside along a ladder set up next to the rooftop. Not far further up, she reached the viewing platform on the mountainside.

Today is New Year's Day. Although the weather is cold, it is the first day of the New Year after all. Many people still choose to brave the cold to run out and have a romantic time.

There are astronomical mirrors placed in each of the four directions of the observation deck, and they are all occupied at the moment. There are two speakers and microphone stands in the open space in the middle. It seems that there will be a small concert later.

Cheng Xiaoyue had nothing to do by herself and didn't want to be alone among many lovers, so she walked aside and looked at the quiet night sky with her naked eyes.

There is no snow tonight, but the weather is extremely cold.

Cheng Xiaoyue ran out in such a hurry that she forgot to take off her down jacket and threw it in the house while working. At this moment, the cold wind from the mountain blew, and I felt extremely cold.

I heard there was a meteor shower tonight...

Cheng Xiaoyue rubbed her cold arms with goosebumps, thinking about whether to go back to get her down jacket first, but she was afraid she would miss it.

Besides, she ran out to avoid him... If he was still in the house, she didn't want to meet him.

Just as she was hesitating, a familiar breath suddenly came from behind her, followed by something warm and fluffy on her back, which suddenly diverted all her thoughts.

Cheng Xiaoyue was stunned and turned back.

In front of her eyes was the familiar jawline, and her Adam's apple was close at hand, and it slowly rolled under her dazed gaze.

Cheng Xiaoyue blinked and slowly stood up straight.

She was more than a head shorter than him, and she usually had to raise her head when talking to him.

However, before she could raise her head this time, Jiang Michuan leaned over slightly and put the down jacket on her shoulders.

He tightened his collar to help her block the cold wind, and with an unmistakable tone in his voice, he whispered,

"Put it on, don't get cold."

The down jacket was held in his hands all the way, contaminated by his body temperature.

Cheng Xiaoyue looked straight into his eyes. He was lowering his head and carefully arranging her clothes. His eyelashes were slightly lowered and his eyes were light.

Not far away, in the middle of the platform, surrounded by people on three levels inside and three outside, there was a singer sitting on the stereo, holding a microphone and singing softly.

As soon as the prelude came out, Cheng Xiaoyue recognized it as "Single Love Song".

This song will occasionally be played on the school radio, but I have never had such a mental journey before, and it doesn't sound very empathetic.

Nowadays, this person and this scene are rare and suitable for the occasion, and people's thoughts can't help but follow the lyrics.

I can't catch love

and always watch it slip away.

There are happy people everywhere in the world.

Why can't I be counted as the one who

has struggled alone for love

and suffered enough

from love? There are people who are lost in love everywhere

, and I am just one of them.

On an icy winter night, lovers hug each other tightly, snuggling together and listening to the heartbroken people's thoughts.

The sad and lost lyrics and melody lingered under the night sky. Cheng Xiaoyue suddenly felt an unspeakable grievance in her heart. She bit her lips and said,

"I don't want you to pretend to care about me."

The big hand that pulled up the zipper for her paused. live.

Jiang Jianchuan raised his eyes and saw that her lips were biting until they were white and trembling slightly, and she stubbornly turned her eyes away from him.

The north wind roared and rolled up her long hair, and a few strands of flying hair swept towards his chest, making him feel confused.

Jiang Jianchuan raised his hand, pressed the strands of hair, and tucked them behind her ears.

The calloused fingertips gently brushed the tip of her ear, and the warmth disappeared in an instant. He quickly retracted his hand, just looked at her with lowered eyes, and asked in a calm tone,

"I am your brother, I can't care. You?"

The tips of Cheng Xiaoyue's ears felt hot, and she glanced at him quickly, but there was no unnecessary expression on his face, as if what happened before had been forgotten by him.

She felt aggrieved in her heart, and even more angry that she had no future.

She had already been rejected by him once, but his unintentional touch still made her feel uncontrollably palpitating.

The cold wind blew into her eyes, causing them to sting and itch.

Cheng Xiaoyue tried her best to keep her eyes wide open to prevent tears from flowing out. She straightened her back proudly and stubbornly and shouted back at him without sparing any effort,

"Who do you think my brother is? If you want to be my brother, you can queue up behind Cheng Shu." !"

Although the girl held on to an air of dissatisfaction, her choked voice still betrayed her forbearing emotions.

Jiang Michuan's heart contracted, and the numbness caused by the cold wind made him feel a dull pain belatedly.

He seemed to want to raise his hand and touch her head, but he didn't know how to comfort her, and he was even more afraid that he was no longer qualified to touch her.

After a few seconds of silence, he curled up his fingertips. His knuckles turned slightly white due to exertion, but he didn't notice it at all. He just coaxed her in a low voice,

"Okay, I'll line up."

Jiang Michuan knew that the little girl might not be able to wait for this period of time . Not wanting to see him again, she pursed her lips and prepared to turn around and go back to the B&B.

But seeing that he was really about to leave, Cheng Xiaoyue was startled and suddenly called him,

"Don't you have anything to say to me?"

The tip of her nose was red and the circles under her eyes were red. I don’t know if it’s because I’m crying or because I’m cold.

Jiang Jianchuan stared at her eyes for a long time, lowered his eyes,

"I'm sorry."

Cheng Xiaoyue choked, sniffed subconsciously, and said in a nasal voice,

"You know that's not what I want to hear."

Of course he knew.

Jiang Michuan is so smart and obviously knows what she wants to hear most right now.

However, he just looked at her silently, his eyes so deep and obscure, as if they were deeper and more unpredictable than the vast night sky.

Jiang Mikawa couldn't explain why his heart felt dull pain every time it beat, but he knew that as the brother who had taken care of her for many years, he had the obligation to bring their relationship back on the right track before it got out of control.

He stood under the stars and in the snow, staring deeply at the girl in front of him who he had watched grow up.

She cried until her eyes were red, feeling aggrieved and pitiful.

It was difficult for Jiang Mikawa to describe how he felt when he saw her crying. He just felt that his lungs were filled with acid water, which made him suffocate.

He couldn't follow her thoughts and choose what she wanted to say to her. He could only sigh lowly,

"There are some promises I can't give you now."

Cheng Xiaoyue held back tears and fell.

One cannot step into the same river twice, but Cheng Xiaoyue has made two mistakes with the same person.

She curled her lips mockingly and quickly held back her tears. Even though she was extremely wronged, she still raised her head stubbornly and responded calmly,

"I know, brother!"

The winter night of the New Year is so warm and romantic, with couples cuddling tightly everywhere. Under the vast sky, the low magnetic voice is hoarse and roaring tirelessly -

looking for a favorite, deep, loving,

dear person

to say goodbye to being single,

a passionate, infatuated,

heartless, heartless person

to give me scars

, lonely There are so many people

who are happy, but few are happy

. Don’t love, miss, and

be single. I

sing love songs alone .

Jiang Michuan looked at her for a few seconds, turned around, and walked slowly down the observation deck.

The tall figure gradually disappeared from sight, and Cheng Xiaoyue still stood there in a daze.

She thought, maybe he would look back at her again...

even just once.

However, her persistence did not wait for Jiang Jianchuan to turn around, but suddenly she heard cheers and screams behind her.

Yang Lin and Xiong Sisi, who were trotting over, put their arms around her shoulders and asked excitedly,

"What wish did you make?"

Cheng Xiaoyue turned around and said, "Huh?"

Seeing that she was stunned, she probably didn't see it. , Yang Lin quickly raised her finger and pointed to a certain place in the sky, and said excitedly,

"There was a shooting star just now, you didn't make a wish?!"

Cheng Xiaoyue blinked in confusion, but she didn't expect that she had endured the cold for so long at night and finally missed it. , couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, so she had to whisper quietly,

"No..."

Yang Lin shook her head and sighed, "That's a shame!" Xiong Sisi

also patted her on the shoulder, kindly comforting her,

"Next time, sister! Next time . Remember to seize the opportunity!”
