After summer, the night in City A seemed to come very early. Before six o’clock, there was a faint color of the night.
The air was also cold, and a gust of wind blew, bringing with it a few strands of hair. Ji Yan stood under the street lamp and tucked her messy hair behind her ear, shivering a little from the cold.
His wrist moved up and down, and it was often restored. When the needle pointed to the number below the watch face, his eyes lit up and his fingers scratched the lock screen.
“Hey, the bus stop near the company.” Ji Yan’s voice was so cold that it was trembling.
When Shang Jinshen received her call, he stopped in his tracks and turned around.
It was time to get off work. Shang Jinshen wanted to take Ji Yan home, but before he reached the door of her office, the familiar ringing music entered his ear. It was specially set for her. The soft and gentle female voice was very in line with her image.
He walked out of the office quickly. Shang Jin was worried that she would get anxious. As soon as he walked out of the office, a chill ran through every pore of his skin. Thinking of Ji Yan’s outfit today, he started running.
“Ji Yan! Are you stupid?” She shouted angrily at the person in front of her. In a few steps, her face had been blown stiff and cold, let alone standing there for an unknown period of time.
Ha-ha, Ji Yan knew that she was in the wrong and smiled ingratiatingly. She pulled his sleeve and her eyes sparkled. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to see something.”
“All of a sudden, Shang Jinshen couldn’t blame her. The brilliance in her eyes made his chest swell and he was very satisfied.
“Well, okay.” He lost all his temper.
Stretching out her neck to look at the other end of the road, Ji Yan was a little disappointed. She turned her head to look at Shang Jinshen with a smile on her face. “But we have to wait for the bus first. If you come earlier, we can get on it.”
“What’s wrong? Are you blaming me for coming late?” Shang Jinshen deliberately misunderstood what she meant. For the warmth of the cold weather, he raised his eyebrows and teased her.
With her eyelids raised, Ji Yan quickly shook her head and made a frightened expression. “I don’t dare, I don’t dare.”
“You don’t have to be afraid.”
She was joking, but he answered seriously.
Her eyes were bright. Ji Yan stared at him, and there were beautiful stars in her eyes.
Shang Jinshen didn’t know what she was talking about, but when he looked into her bright starry eyes, he subconsciously thought that what she wanted to give him was just like the so-called surprise he gave her. This woman would always be like this. After she accepted his kindness, she would definitely repay him.
She didn’t mean to clear the friendship between them, but just like when he was a child, any kid gave him delicious candy today, so the next day, he would also give him the toys he liked at home.
It’s like sharing something with each other. I can feel all your happiness, and then your happiness will be magnified several times and live in my heart.
Turning his palm outward, Shang Jinshen held her cold hand. He was unhappy, so he let her hold his hand into a small ball and wrapped it with his warm big palm.
Ji Yan smiled brightly and couldn’t help scratching his palm. Shang Jin felt a stir in his palm. He glared at her and she immediately became obedient and let him hold her.
Taking a glimpse of a bus coming, Shang Jinshen asked her, “How many cars do we want to take?”
“Oh, this one!”
The bus was used as a means of transportation for many people in modern society, and it was also the top choice for the students. However, it was not suitable for Jin Shen, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Therefore, when he led Ji Yan to the gate of the bus, he couldn’t help but be stunned when he saw the deposit box.
“Come on, the people behind are still waiting!” Seeing the two of them standing there, the driver blocked the entrance of the car and shouted, “Just invest two yuan!”
There were people behind her who were impatient and were urging them. Ji Yan was a little embarrassed, and her hand was held by Shang Jin. She couldn’t get the change in her bag. “Him? You don’t have to think about it. It’s good to have cash in the wallet, but I don’t expect him to have a few small pieces of money.”
Shaking his hand, Ji Yan motioned for him to let go. On the other hand, Shang Jingshen didn’t feel embarrassed at all. He turned around and glanced at the people in front of the car. It was the rush hour of work, and there were more than a dozen of them.
More than a dozen… one piece per piece…
Shang Jin quickly took out a 100 yuan from his wallet. Before Ji Yan could stop him, he had already put it into the deposit box.
“You can’t find a change on the bus!” Ji Yan stared at him helplessly. In the blink of an eye, she stared at the deposit, feeling a little painful.
Shang Jinshen smiled deeply and then said to the stunned driver, “You don’t have to pay for the rest of the people. Count it as my investment.”
“Okay, okay, okay. All of you can go in. You don’t have to invest!” The driver waved his hand impatiently and asked the driver outside to get in the car.
Perhaps it was rare to see such a person. There was a brief silence in the noisy carriage, and then it exploded like a clap of thunder.
The people who entered one after another, as well as the passengers who were seated, couldn’t help but glance at them a few more times. They even began to whisper amongst themselves.
The crowd was crowded, and the car, which was originally not spacious, was even narrower. Its chest was on the back of others, and it had to endure all kinds of strange smells. Ji Yan grasped Shang Jinshen’s arm tightly, and her shoulder was held by a big hand, moving forward with difficulty.
Finally, they were squeezed into the back of the carriage. What was rare was that the back of the carriage was more relaxed than in other places, and it would not be awkward to build a human wall together.
She took a deep breath, as if she had fought a tough battle. Ji Yan looked up, and what caught her eye was the man’s knitted eyebrows. She couldn’t help but raise the corner of her mouth. “I’m taking you to experience life. In the past, I often made bus, and I could only squeeze in when I was lucky. If I was unlucky, I could only wait for one. But the bus is not only economic and environmental, there are many stories and classes here.”
Thinking of the days when she was driving the bus every day, she suddenly looked back and found that she was so young at that time, and then there was a new person accompanying her today. The hands that held her also changed, and the hands became more mature, which gave her a sense of security.
“What story? Don’t tell me it’s a story between you and those boys?” She stared out of the window, but her eyes couldn’t see through it. They stopped at the thin glass surface, where there was a faint reflection, reflecting the woman in a white shirt. Her face was full of nostalgia.
On the glass, the woman’s eyebrows curved down. Although she was blurry, she seemed to be able to see the brilliance in her eyes.
Shang Jinshen looked away with a guilty conscience and stared straight at her. He looked straight at her as he blamed her.
Ji Yan’s eyes were brighter, and the lights outside the street were not as bright as the colors in her eyes. She opened her mouth and said, “No matter how many stories there are, they are not the main characters of each other.”
Shang Jinshen smiled, satisfied with her answer.
