He has become a little fatter, he has some stubble, and his hair has been cut short, but the scarf around him is the same one she gave him back then, probably because he did this deliberately because he came to see her.
"What's up with me?" Le Shi just looked down at the coffee in front of him. He ordered her favorite flavor, added the right sugar and milk, and all the habits remained the same, as if returning to two years ago all at once, but, Can not go back.
Xu Zhiyuan smiled bleakly, his lips split suddenly because of dryness, and his whole face looked a little sick: "It's been a long time since I saw Le Shi, I, I just want to come and see you."
Le Shi raised her head: "If you have nothing to say, I will leave first." She did not get up because she was sure Xu Zhiyuan must have something to ask her for help.
Xu Zhiyuan was really anxious, but he opened his mouth and seemed to be a little embarrassed: "Le Shi, I, I do want you to help me with something, but you...can you promise me first?"
Before asking for help, let people agree. The first time Le Shi saw this kind of person, she smiled mockingly. There was no friendship between them: "No." Don't be so polite to him.
Xu Zhiyuan was stunned. He never guessed that Yueshi would react this way. In fact, he was still stuck in the fantasy that Yueshi would definitely accept it, because the previous musical poetry was like this, no matter what he did wrong, said An apology is nothing.
He continued to smile bleakly: "Okay, then I, I'll just say..." He lowered his head, seemingly afraid to look at Le Shi's face, "Can you, can you be with me again?"
Le Shi sneered.
Xu Zhiyuan hurriedly raised his head to meet her eyes, and all of them prayed: "I, I know you will definitely not agree, but, I have to do it because... Because of me, my mother, she is sick, she used to be very sick. I hope I'm with you, and it's the same now, so she..."
"Is it something to do with me?" Le Shi just thought it was funny, didn't Xu Zhiyuan find it funny to say all this
His mother was really good to her in the past, but it was just in front of him, as long as he left, she would beat and scold Le Shi, and she would never be satisfied with what she did.
He also threatened her, as long as she told Xu Zhiyuan, she would let her son leave her.
Think about what I had lived in the past was also useless, this is not the life I should live.
A love that ended the music and poems of the past is also not bad.
Xu Zhiyuan seemed to be a little guilty, and his eyes flinched: "Perhaps, she had a lot of wrong things in the past, but, but she, no, my mother and I have figured it out. Only you are suitable for our Xu family, to be the Xu family. My daughter-in-law, I heard that you also graduated now, so..."
"So what?" Le Shi threw the spoon in the coffee cup onto the table, raising his eyes and looking at him with disdain, "Even so, what does it have to do with me? Xu Zhiyuan, we have nothing to do with it anymore. Yes, isn’t it? If you know you, it’s only about knowing. I get to know the people who take the bus every day."
Xu Zhiyuan was still a little dazed: "Le Shi, you... you are not the same as before."
Le Shi sipped his coffee, glanced around, and looked careless. Indeed, compared with the previous only music poems, he is already very different.
But she really likes who she is now, relying only on herself, not on anyone.
After a long time, Xu Zhiyuan took off the scarf from his neck and put it aside. He could clearly see that there were bruises on his neck. Although it was only one or two pieces, he could also feel a shudder.
Le Shi tried her best not to look at him, because she knew he would definitely say that Xu Zhiyuan was the same Xu Zhiyuan, and it hadn't changed at all.
Sure enough, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help it anymore: "Le Shi, you, you must come home with me to see if it's okay, I beg you, please." Although his voice was very small, he was full of eyes. Sad, it doesn't look like it was pretended.
The smile on Le Shi's face disappeared. Seeing him scruffy, it didn't look like he was lying. Could it be that something really happened? Or is there any conspiracy
He had lied to himself many times before, so Le Shi couldn't care less.
"Is there anything I can't tell you here? If you don't tell me, I won't go back with you." No matter what happens this time, she won't easily believe Xu Zhiyuan, she has not forgotten those things in the past.
Probably as a last resort, Xu Zhiyuan has no choice: "Le Shi, I... My mother, she has cancer and time is running out, so I hope you can go back and see her. What she hopes most in her life is that we can Together, she said, you are the best daughter-in-law she has ever seen."
There were tears in his eyes, but what he said still couldn't convince Le Shi. His mother didn't know how many cynical things he said before, but has she changed her words now? why
Seeing that Le Shi was silent, Xu Zhiyuan lifted his hands on the table and grasped Le Shi's hand which was stirring coffee: "Le Shi, you come back with me, and see mom with me. I didn't lie to you, really."
Le Shi suddenly withdrew her hand and looked into his eyes, and found that it didn't seem to be a lie, but, did she really want to go back with him
"You, give me two days to think about it, okay?" This is her compromise, but this time she won't be as stupid as before. "But even if I agree, I will only agree to go back with you to take a look. Look, I won’t agree to be with you again, so you don’t have to use any moral kidnapping tactics against me."
She really had enough.
It was getting dark outside, it was getting late, and she had to go back to pack up her things, since she had to go up and down for another six months, then she didn't need to leave the city for the time being.
I originally thought that if I could not find a job after I graduated, I would go to another place, so I can't live without City A temporarily.
After Xu Zhiyuan was silent for a while, he nodded and wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes, feeling a bit contented: "Okay, okay, as long as you promise to go and see Le Shi, I, I will be at home these days, I am waiting for you. "
Le Shi took another two sips of coffee and glanced at the scarf on the table. She gave it to him on the first anniversary of the relationship. She brought it here today, no wonder.
Xu Zhiyuan also noticed the look in her eyes and smiled embarrassedly: "I keep all the things you gave me. This scarf has been worn for several years. It is very warm." He reached out and took it. , The result was taken away by Le Shi.
Le Shi threw the scarf into the trash can next to him, raised his eyes and looked at him indifferently: "Don't wear it anymore, and I hope you don't keep anything I gave you anymore, but the scar on your neck is How did you do it?"
Xu Zhiyuan immediately covered his neck with his hands, probably because he didn't want to be seen. Ke Le Shi had seen it long ago, right
"This is... This was accidentally knocked down." Xu Zhiyuan stood up, clutching his neck, his eyes evasive, "Well, I'm leaving now, I... I'll wait for you at home."
After speaking, he left in a hurry, Yue Shi was a little surprised, didn't those scars intentionally show him
Xu Zhiyuan was a very smart person in her eyes, but she didn't know this until later, because no matter what he did from beginning to end, he had prepared for a long time in advance, including looking for new love.
Leaving the corner coffee, the street was full of traffic, with countless neon lights illuminating the whole street, and Le Shi was walking towards the station. It was not too late. She hadn't walked through the feasting streets at night for a long time.
When she had just returned to China, she was especially greedy for the feeling of walking alone on the street at night. Looking at the lights everywhere, it can make people feel a touch of warmth, especially in the lukewarm season or winter.
Seeing the fluttering snowflakes flying and falling from the street lights, shining like ice crystals, the beauty is indescribable in any words.
Every night, on the way back from school to the rental house, I saw the moon following me, as if I was not afraid of anything.
Not far away, a family of three was watching in front of the cake shop window. The little girl pointed at a piece of cake inside and smiled sweetly.
Dad watched his daughter smile happily, and took her three into the cake shop together.
I walked over unwillingly, and through the door glass, I could see the scene where they were buying cakes. Suddenly, I felt sad. I had no parents since I was a child, and I couldn't realize the feeling of parents' care, but I still yearn for it.
Sometimes she wonders, why do other people have parents, but she doesn't? why…
"Miss, would you please give me a hand?" A sentence pulled her back, and Le Shi realized that she was standing at the door and blocking the way out of the family of three.
"Sorry." She said with a smile, and she stepped aside.
"Sister." With a sweet voice, Le Shi turned his head to confirm if he was calling himself, but only when the little girl looked at her with a smile did he make sure.
"What's the matter?" Le Shi asked softly.
The little girl struggled to get out of her father’s arms, took out a piece of the cake that had just been bought, and handed it to Le Shi: “Sister, don’t cry, can you share a piece of cake every day?” She has big eyes and a shallow smile. The two dimples are very nice.
Le Shi wiped the corners of her eyes and realized that she did indeed have tears. She squatted down and touched the little girl's head: "Sister, don't want it, can you leave it to eat every day? Sister does not matter."
With her immature hands, the little girl gently wiped the corners of her eyes for Le Shi: "Sister, don't cry. Also, this cake must be given to you. The clerk said, there is a surprise in it."
She smiled crookedly, and then left the cake, and then left with her parents.
