palm discarded beads

Chapter 19

In the dark room, Qin Mingzhu turned lazily on the taro-colored bed sheet, her thick eyelashes slowly fluttering.He stared at the pillow pressed by his wrist for a long time before he remembered that he slept with Yan Jiayu last night.

Yan Jiayu!

He sat up immediately, didn't even remember to put on his shoes, jumped out of bed and ran outside.After studying abroad, he got into the habit of wearing a pair of cotton socks to bed.It's really too cold here, and he is the person who is most afraid of cold.

In the extremely daytime weather, in order to create the feeling of night, Qin Mingzhu installed extremely strong blackout curtains on each window.The curtains that he didn't always open when he got up, were all drawn now except for his bedroom.

He looked around every part of the house, and finally found Yan Jiayu in the kitchen.

Yan Jiayu was cooking in a newly bought apron, and the clothes she was wearing were bought when she lived here last year.He was slightly lowering his head to process the ingredients, when he heard the movement, he turned his head and smiled at Qin Mingzhu who was standing at the door, "Are you full of sleep?"

Qin Mingzhu hummed, walked over slowly, and hugged Yan Jiayu's waist from the side, "When I just woke up, I thought I was dreaming."

Yan Jiayu was about to say something, when she saw the person who had just woken up gently rubbed his face against his shoulders, his face was powdery, and if he looked carefully, he could still see fine fluff.

After rubbing, Qin Mingzhu suddenly left the kitchen, and came back a few minutes later, continuing to hug Yan Jiayu's thin waist, "I still feel like I'm dreaming, it's so unreal."

Not only because of Yan Jiayu's appearance, but also because of Yan Jiayu's legs.

Before going to bed last night, he touched Yan Jiayu's leg for a long time.

Yan Jiayu told him that he had undergone surgery and postoperative rehabilitation this year, and now his legs can walk like a normal person, without limp or cane.

Although Yan Jiayu finished the matter in a few words, Qin Mingzhu knew that it must not be easy, otherwise it would not have taken him a year to come to see him, so he couldn't help crying for a while in the other's arms last night.

As Qin Mingzhu said, she touched a small cucumber on the chopping board and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Have you brushed your teeth and washed your face?" Yan Jiayu looked down at him.

Qin Mingzhu finished eating the cucumber with puffed cheeks, "I didn't wash my face but I brushed my teeth."

He had his eyes on the green cucumber just now, so he went to brush his teeth and came back.In order to prove what he said, he opened his mouth and asked Yan Jiayu to check, "Look, I'll swipe—"

The kiss fell suddenly.

It was too unexpected, Qin Mingzhu shrank subconsciously, as if facing an animal that was much stronger than herself, but the opponent was extremely gentle.So he relaxed again in comfort, and even took the initiative to wrap Yan Jiayu's tongue.

Touched lightly, and backed away shyly.

He actually likes kissing very much, but he is too embarrassed to tell Yan Jiayu.

Every time Yan Jiayu kissed him, he would feel weak afterwards, and this time was no exception.

After the kiss, Yan Jiayu pulled the tissue and gently wiped Qin Mingzhu's lips.

"Didn't you say that you always wanted to go to the Microsila Islands? I bought the ticket at 02:30 this afternoon. We finished our breakfast and counted the time to go to the airport. We will have a meal at the airport at noon. The rest That's enough time for you to take a bath in the morning. If you don't want to eat the food at the airport, I'll make a bento box and heat it up at the airport."

"Microsila Islands?" Qin Mingzhu's flushed face became visibly excited in an instant.That archipelago is a bird island, and there are many birds that only exist in books. In order to protect the ecological environment, the local government only opens tourist qualifications to [-] tourists every year.

There was a time difference between the local area and the domestic one. Qin Mingzhu got up in the middle of the night to snatch it once, but failed. He couldn't win at all.

Qin Mingzhu also turned into a chirping bird at this time, "Are we really going to the Microsila Islands? Then I want to bring a camera, which one should I bring? Clothes... You also need to choose clothes, I read online guides Said those birds are very fast and often, if you don’t pay attention, the hair will always be theirs.”

He was talking about bird droppings.

"I've packed the clothes for you, and the suitcase is in the living room. You can open it again and see if you want to add something. The camera that shoots birds and the gifts I gave you are all in the rear compartment. You will wait later On the way to the airport, you can take it apart slowly."

Qin Mingzhu blinked when she heard Yan Jiayu's words, "Then what should I do now?"

"Wash your face, take a bath, and pick out what to wear to go out today." Yan Jiayu paused, the corners of her eyes slightly curved, "Also, give me a kiss."

Qin Mingzhu's answer was to put her lips on Yan Jiayu's left and right cheeks without hesitation, and then ran away smiling.

Qin Mingzhu asked the school for a seven-day long vacation, including the weekend, he had a full nine-day vacation.They first went to the Microsila Islands, and then went to the private island under Yan Jiayu's name.

No, it has now become a private island under Qin Mingzhu's name. This is his real birthday present at the age of 22.

Yan Jiayu gave him an island.

Not only that, but the island was almost exactly as described in the fairy tale book he read when he was nine years old.

At that time, he promised Uncle Yan that he would make good friends with Yan Jiayu, so he went to Yan Jiayu's place every day to play with Yan Jiayu.

Yan Jiayu is not talkative, so he let himself talk more, but he didn't know what to say, so he began to read fairy tales to Yan Jiayu, treating Yan Jiayu as a baby who needed to listen to bedtime stories.

Just thinking about it often, Qin Mingzhu would sigh in the book, "If only I could live on this island." "If I have an island like this, I will be the happiest person in the world!"

The childish speech at the age of nine actually came true at the age of 22.

Sit in a helicopter and overlook the entire island.

The endless green grass extends to a vertical cliff tens of meters deep at one end, and at the end of the cliff is a sapphire blue sea under the sun, with waves scouring the wall stones repeatedly.At the other end are rose-red igloos, stone-brick bungalows, and blue-grey windmills.

After walking around the island, they came to a tall tower.The outside of the tower is surrounded by flower walls, gray and white bricks and stones are covered with green plants.

Qin Mingzhu flipped over the wooden sign at the door with her fingers.

"The Ivory Tower of the Pearl." He read it out, and after he finished, he couldn't help but chuckle, "Brother Jiayu, why do you even remember this? Also, this name is too... too embarrassing."

When he was a child, he said that he hoped to have his own ivory tower. When the time came, he would live in the ivory tower and be his little prince without going anywhere.At that time Qin Mingzhu called herself the little prince, and when she grew up, she naturally didn't want to bring up this embarrassing term.

"Go up and have a look." Yan Jiayu took Qin Mingzhu's hand and pushed open the door of the tower.If the outside is a fairy tale for children, the inside is a fairy tale for adults.

Countless roses are spread all the way from the door to the endless spiral staircase, Qin Mingzhu stepped on the thick flowers, every step felt like she was stepping on the clouds.

On the second floor, there is a holographic projection in front of you.On the projection is a dance choreographed by the world's top mermaid actors to congratulate him on his birthday.

The beam of light pierces the bottom of the sea, thousands of schools of fish shuttle in the water, golden or blue mermaids sway and swim in the deep sea, their tails are like the most precious gold and precious gemstones in the world.

The mermaid took out a seawater pearl from the bottom of the water and sent it to the screen with a smile.

Qin Mingzhu couldn't help stretching out her hand, but she didn't expect to touch a bead.He retracted his hand in surprise, and looked at Yan Jiayu beside him.

Yan Jiayu didn't watch the mermaid show, her eyes were on Qin Mingzhu's face from beginning to end.

Seeing the pitiful and cute look of being frightened, he couldn't help laughing, "I used some technological means, Mingzhu, go get your things."

The mermaids still maintained their previous movements, looking at them tenderly.

Hearing what Yan Jiayu said, Qin Mingzhu slowly stretched out his hand to hold the pearl.As soon as he took the pearl, the mermaids also dispersed, as if returning to their deep sea.

That seawater pearl was as big as Qin Mingzhu's palm, and it was shiny and moist.He had never seen such a big pearl, and he fiddled with it for a while.

The third floor is full of photos of Qin Mingzhu, from his infancy to his present.

The fourth floor is what Qin Mingzhu likes to eat, play, and wear branded clothes, in short, it's all his favorites.

There is a medium-sized window on the fifth floor, and daylight falls in from the outside.Qin Mingzhu leaned over the window, playing with a copper-colored wind chime hanging with her fingers, watching it float back and forth in the wind like a little dancing girl.

Qin Mingzhu has never liked a house so much. It took nearly 10 minutes just to play with the wind chimes, while overlooking his island, and then went to the second floor to put the deep sea pearls back in place and watch the replay of the mermaid show.If you are hungry, go to the fourth floor to eat.

After going up and down countless times, he was so tired that he lay down on the big snow-white bed, "I'll watch it tomorrow, not today."

Qin Mingzhu panted while talking, the skin under the collar of her clothes was like ice cream, splashing into people's eyes.He still didn't realize it, and his fingers pulled the clothes apart again.

"Mingzhu." The young man beside him who had been quietly watching him suddenly spoke.

Qin Mingzhu looked over in confusion, and hummed, "What's the matter, Brother Jiayu?"

Then he was kissed by Brother Jiayu in his mouth.

Kiss with lust and kiss without passion seemed to be easy to distinguish, Qin Mingzhu felt like a bird again, a bird with wet wings.With difficulty breathing, he stretched out his hand to grab Yan Jiayu's clothes, fearing that his whole body would be swept away in an instant.

What he did impulsively a year ago left a shadow on himself.

Later, during the month of living together with Yan Jiayu, the other party didn't do anything extra except help him apply the medicine.

Qin Mingzhu thought he had forgotten, but when he really realized that this kind of thing was coming, he remembered the pain and blood that day.

"Brother Jiayu." He flinched and called out Yan Jiayu's name while relying on it.

He doesn't know who to turn to for help, he looks for Yan Jiayu habitually, but Yan Jiayu is responsible for his pain.

Qin Mingzhu's voice trembled, "I'm a little, scared."

A few seconds later, a scarlet tulle wrapped around his eyes, "Mingzhu, do you still remember the operation you had when you were a child? At that time you were shy and refused to let the adults look at the injury for you, but I did it for you. Later, when you went to high school, on the first day you grew up in a physical sense, you only told me that I helped you solve the bed sheets and underwear... You have always believed in me, and you will try to believe me this time, okay? ?”

The light veil almost covered half of her face, Qin Mingzhu raised her face, her pink lips opened and closed.
