The Pianist And The Lady[Republic Of China Gl] Chapter 57
byChapter 57
“Why did you kiss me suddenly?” Lan Yuan asked, her eyes blurred by the long kiss.
“Don’t you often do this too?” Shen Xian kissed him again, nodded, and continued to hold the person in his arms.
“How can I?” Lan Yuan quibbled.
“On New Year’s Day, you kissed me a lot.” Shen Xian emphasized.
“Most of the medical staff in the hospital went home for the New Year that day, so I dared.” Lan Yuan explained that she usually pretends to others that Shen Xian is her sister.
Shen Xian was obviously more arrogant in the hospital, Lan Yuan murmured in her heart.
“Now at home, we can do whatever we want!” Shen Xian said, playing with Lan Yuan’s hair, with a longing look on his face.
“You’re right!” Lan Yuan left Chen Xian’s arms, “Now at home, I can continue to study cooking skills.”
At night, Shen Xian ate the sour cabbage fried by Lan Yuan and the fishy pork rib soup with tears in his eyes!
After dinner, Lan Yuan took a shower first, and when she came out, she saw Shen Xian still reading a book on the sofa——
“It’s your turn to take a shower.” Lan Yuan reminded.
“Okay, then I’ll go take a shower.” Shen Xian closed the book obediently, went to the bedroom on the second floor to get pajamas and entered the bathroom.
After taking a shower, Chen Xian noticed that Lan Yuan was still sitting on the sofa on the first floor——
“Why don’t you go back to your room and sleep?” Shen Xian asked.
“Waiting for you, waiting to say good night to you.” Lan Yuan said softly.
The lights in the room glowed yellow, making Lan Yuan’s cold eyebrows softer and full of affection.
“Good night.” Chen Xian replied.
After living together in the hospital for many days, they developed a good habit of greeting each other.
“Then I’m going back to my room now.” Lan Yuan pointed to the room on the second floor.
“Yuan Yuan, can you sleep in separate rooms?” Shen Xian held Lan Yuan’s hand with eyes filled with regret.
She had been thinking about how to open this door since she came home and found that Lan Yuan had tidied up two bedrooms.
She was used to being in the same room with Lan Yuan, and she didn’t feel safe when they were suddenly separated.
“Isn’t this bad?” Lan Yuan was reluctant.
She also wanted to sleep with Shen Xian, but she was worried about the wounds on Shen Xian’s body.
“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you randomly. I’m just used to you being by my side.” Shen Xian thought Lan Yuan was wrong and tried his best to explain.
“That’s not what I meant. I was afraid of accidentally pressing your wound.” Lan Yuan explained loudly.
What is going on in Chen Xian’s mind?So not simple.
“It can’t be pressed. We both sleep well.” Shen Xian said with a smile.
In the hospital, they had all seen each other’s sleeping faces, one was more honest and dignified than the other!
“Try it for one night first. If it doesn’t work, then divide the room!” Lan Yuan compromised.
“Okay!” Shen Xian immediately pulled him to the master bedroom.
This is the first time they sleep together in the same bed. Neither of them dares to get too close, and one person can sleep in the middle of the distance!
“Are you asleep? Yuan Yuan.” Shen Xian used the faint light from the bedside and asked softly, staring sideways at Lan Yuan’s sleeping face.
“Not yet.” Lan Yuan said with her eyes closed. She didn’t dare to look directly at Shen Xian. That face was a huge temptation and she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to restrain it.
“I can’t sleep either.” Shen Xian poked Lan Yuan’s face.
“How about I go sleep on my side.” Lan Yuan thought she had disturbed Shen Xian.
“Don’t go.” Shen Xian pulled Lan Yuan’s arm.
“I’m afraid you won’t be able to rest well while I’m here.” Lan Yuan explained patiently.
“If you really leave, I won’t be able to sleep even more.” Shen Xian said holding Lan Yuan’s arm.
“Okay, I won’t leave.” Lan Yuan gently patted Shen Xian’s arm to reassure her.
“I’ll read to you, and I’ll put you to sleep.” Lan Yuan said.
“Okay.” Shen Xian nodded and closed his eyes.
Nowadays, she is very dependent on Lan Yuan and needs Lan Yuan’s company.
Lan Yuan picked up the book that Shen Xian had been reading today and started reading from where Shen Xian had not read it. Her voice was calm, and the emotional entanglements of the characters in the book were diluted by her cold voice.
However, Chen Xian felt that the sound was both beautiful and comforting, and fell asleep after a while.
Watching Shen Xian breathing steadily and falling asleep, Lan Yuan slowly closed the book and placed it gently on the bed next to the photo of them together. After saying “I LOVE YOU” to the people around her, she fell asleep with a smile on her face.
The March day when the grass is growing and the orioles are flying has finally arrived, and you can take off your bulky cotton-padded jackets and coats.
A month later, Lan Yuan brought Shen Xian for a review. It was basically fine. After a hundred days of injuries, Shen Xian could move freely now. Lan Yuan’s heart was gradually relieved.
“Why don’t we go to Central Park to relax, the peach blossoms are blooming there.” Lan Yuan suggested after seeing the doctor.
“Okay.” Shen Xian agreed immediately. She basically listened to Lan Yuan on everything.
The peach blossoms are blooming, and Central Park is dyed pink by hundreds of acres of peach blossom trees.
The peach blossoms here are not as gentle as the Xiaojiabiyu on both sides of the Yangzhou moat. Perhaps they have a little bit of the northern scenery. The peach blossoms are exceptionally enchanting and dazzling, and their blooming posture is also so soul-stirringly beautiful.
Looking around, the peach blossoms gradually become enchanting and occupy the entire field of vision of tourists.
The breeze blows, and the peach blossoms on the trees move with the wind, and some are scattered on the ground, dotting the bare grass.
In this season, the young grass has just sprouted and has not yet been able to saturate the earth with its own tender green.
Lan Yuan remembered that at this time last year, she and Shen Xian seemed to be strangers, but now she has actually been living with this person day and night and sleeping in the same bed.
The years passed silently, but the tenderness between the fingers and the tightly held hands made Lan Yuan feel the gift given to her by the passer-by of time.
“Children come back early from school and are busy taking advantage of the east wind to fly kites.” Watching parents flying kites with their children in the distance, Shen Xian thought of this ancient poem. The word “kite” in the poem happened to be the same as the name of “Blue Kite”.
“Does your name mean kite?” Shen Xian turned to ask Lan Yuan.
“The kite flies to the violent sky, and the fish leaps into the abyss. It comes from the Book of Songs. He originally thought that I was a boy, which means that I am as brave as an eagle and will achieve something in the future.” Lan Yuan explained calmly.
“But because I already have a eldest brother, he is not too disappointed that I am a girl. He was nice to me in the past, but he did not change my name. He just called me Lan Yuan.”
Now that she thought about the origin of her name, Lan Yuan felt slightly ridiculous and lowered her eyes, feeling indescribably sad and gloomy.
.
“Girls can be like eagles. There are also females in eagles. You can be whoever you want to be, not what others expect you to be.” Shen Xian comforted, pointing to the bird flying freely in the sky.
Looking at Shen Xian who was trying hard to make herself happy, Lan Yuan pinched her face, smiling brightly and arching her eyebrows, “I am very happy now. If I have to become something, I would rather be a kite.”
“Why make a kite?” Shen Xian was puzzled.
“Because I want to be held by you and stay by your side forever. The kite will never fly away unless the kite flyer lets go.” Lan Yuan held Chen Xian’s hand tightly.
“Chen Chen promised Yuan Yuan that she would never let go of her hand.” Shen Xian held Lan Yuan tightly with one hand and held her in his arms with the other hand. Although she never hid her love in public.
The two of them walked hand in hand in the park and came to an empty place. Shen Xian ran to a stall and bought a kite.
“Teach me how to fly a kite.” Shen Xian held the kite and said to Lan Yuan.
Lan Yuan was surprised that Shen Xian didn’t know how to fly a kite, but thought that she might have never been exposed to this in the UK for so many years.
“Okay.” Lan Yuan put the string on one end of the kite, felt the direction of the wind with her hands, and slowly lifted the kite from the ground along the windy place.
The kite flew up with the wind. Lan Yuan put it high in the sky and handed the line to Chen Xian.
Then, Lan Yuan controlled Shen Xian’s hand and gave Shen Xian instructions on how to fly the kite to prevent it from falling——
“Like this,” Lan Yuan pulled the string, “tighten it and loosen it. If you feel the wind direction has changed, change the direction. If you don’t want to play anymore, just slowly pull the string back.”
“Okay, let me try.” Shen Xian held the thread carefully and operated it carefully.
The wind spread to the line and was felt by Shen Xian’s hands. It turned out that the wind was so three-dimensional. Shen Xian sighed in her heart. At the same time, she also felt that although the kite was hanging high in the sky, it felt within reach.
“Yuan Yuan, even if you become a kite, you can fly freely. I will hold the string and never let go.”
“But I will never take back that line. I will not limit your life or let you fall. You must also follow the direction of the wind to find your ideal.”
Chen Xian flew the kite and turned to Lan Yuan.
You are my ideal, Lan Yuan looked at Chen Xian lovingly and said this silently in her heart.
In the past, Lan Yuan never considered ideals and chose to live a confused life. Later, after getting together with Shen Xian, she also thought about what she wanted to do.
But Lan Yuan finally discovered that she had nothing in particular that she liked, and she had no hobbies that she wanted to stick to. Shen Xian was the only one she liked.
Those days in the hospital and at home, reading books, listening to records, dancing, taking photos with Shen Xian, listening to her play the piano or occasionally playing the piano with her were Lan Yuan’s favorite days, and it was also the life Lan Yuan wanted to live her whole life.
The two of them didn’t leave the park and go home for dinner until they felt hungry at noon.
On the way home——
“Shen Chen, I think it’s time for me to find a job.” Lan Yuan said to Shen Xian.
They are almost out of money. Lan Yuan didn’t bring any money from the Lan family when she severed ties with them, and Shen Xian doesn’t have much left in his salary now.
Lan Yuan doesn’t want to live on Shen Xian’s money. She has read some books recently and understands that women must be independent. Even if her lover is a woman, and even if Shen Xian doesn’t care about it, this is not the reason for her to ask for it blindly.
“I can make money. I’ll support you, so you don’t have to work!” Shen Xian also considered the financial problems at home. She asked Hunter to help her keep an eye on job opportunities, and planned to go to work when she recovered.
“I have hands and feet, and I can make money.”
Lan Yuan doesn’t want to live on Shen Xian’s money. She has read some books recently and understands that women must be independent. Even if her lover is a woman, and even if Shen Xian doesn’t care about it, this is not the reason for her to ask for it blindly.
“But this will be very hard and tiring, and I feel bad for her.” Shen Xian explained that Lan Yuan had never suffered hardship before as a daughter of a wealthy family, and she was not willing to let Lan Yuan continue to suffer hardship after being with her.
“We share weal and woe, we are both women, and it is right to feel sorry for each other, but we cannot blindly let you pay just because of this.” Lan Yuan patiently argued with Shen Xian.
“We Yuan Yuan have grown up.” Shen Xian said happily, Lan Yuan is more mature and rational than she imagined.
“Then I will accompany you to find a job. From now on, I will also cook for you and wash your clothes. We will share everything together.” Shen Xian took Lan Yuan’s hand and continued.
“Okay, that’s how we should be.” Lan Yuan smiled happily.
Wutong trees greened the streets again. In these few peaceful years, they cherished and encouraged each other.
