Chapter 2: Take Me In

"Promise?"

An Yunuo looked at Gan Yunting, who was smiling happily on the other side, with a puzzled expression, and he didn't remember what the promise in his mouth was saying at all.

Before coming to see her, Gan Yunting had already expected that this situation might happen, and he was not surprised at all, but was glad that she was still the little fool in his memory.

Putting aside the so-called promise, he decided to make a little foreshadowing for his own purpose first.

"Hey, it's just a joke when I was a child, I don't remember it. ”

He waved his hand, graciously stepped over the question, carefully wiped his hair with the towel she handed him, and looked curiously at the small convenience store while watching her busy on the shelves.

Just like echoing the name of the store on the door outside, the store is decorated with little stars everywhere, with warm lighting, so that people can feel a little warmth on this cold night.

"How long have you been working here?"

An Yunuo, who was tidying up the counter, was stunned for a moment, and didn't raise his head to return to him.

"It's been three years. ”

"It's been three years......"

Gan Yunting wandered around the store, imagining how she could live such a life after facing these trivial things for three years, and going around in this small shop all day long.

"Well, it's been three years. ”

Counting today's cash income, carefully fill in the handover book hanging under the counter, this is what must be done before the shift every day, the inventory of the goods she has just taken advantage of the rain no one to deal with, and when the cash is finished, you can wait for the successor colleagues to come.

In his ears was the sound of Suo Suo counting the cash, and the sound of counting softly from time to time, Gan Yunting looked at An Yunuo's careful and serious appearance from the reflector hanging in the corner of the ceiling of the store, she has not seen her for thirteen years, she is no longer the child who wears a small face all day long, wears tattered clothes, and is ridiculed by her classmates with herself.

In thirteen years, she has grown a lot, the small appearance in her memory has grown, her black and thick hair is no longer as yellow as she remembers, like dead grass in a wasteland, a pair of crystal eyes under her croscent-like eyebrows, clear and clear, bright as stars, small red lips are like petals dotted on her fair face, two shallow dimples appear on her cheeks with the corners of her mouth pulled up, a few naughty strands of hair scattered from her ears, with the wind blowing in from the door, gently stirring her cheeks.

Carefully put the counted cash into the cash register, and filled in all the shift records that should be filled in carefully, An Yunuo habitually raised her head again, reached out and rubbed her stiff neck, I don't know what's going on, she always feels that her neck is particularly easy to stiffen recently.

When all this was done, she suddenly remembered that there was another person in the store, she immediately looked up in the store to look for Gan Yunting's figure, and saw that she was looking for herself from the reflector, Gan Yunting walked in front of her in a few steps, and saw the smile on her face began to emerge with her appearance, and he was inexplicably happy.

"Are you tired?"

He had already seen her rubbing her neck, coupled with the tiredness on her face that was not easy to ignore, it seemed that the job was not easy now.

"It's okay, just get used to it. ”

An Yunuo replied with a smile, it is not the first time that she has had this kind of condition, it is not that she has not been to the hospital for examination before, the doctor said that it is just a normal cervical spondylosis, and told her not to overly involve the cervical spine, and if she encounters this situation in the future, she does not have to go to the hospital, she knows that she is a cervical spondylosis again.

Her habit is taken for granted, but it makes Gan Yunting feel distressed.

He knew that her life was not very good now, she was separated from her previous family, she had to earn her own money to support herself, in this big city, without a good educational background, she could not find a good job at all, and now this job will only allow her to make ends meet.

An Yunuo is used to this kind of life, even if compared with those so-called white-collar workers, her work is unbearable, she also feels very happy, at least she is free now, and she can do whatever she likes, not like before......

No, why did you think of the past, isn't it good now!

She shook her head, trying to get all those unpleasant memories out of her head, she had already fled, why bother to let herself fall into the memories of the past.

Thinking of this, she looked up at Gan Yunting, wanting to divert her attention.

"By the way, how have you been doing all these years?"

She casually found the topic, but she regretted it.

Looking at Gan Yunting's current appearance, it doesn't look very comfortable, his outfit is not described as down, it is already very good.

"I'm sorry. ”

Realizing that she was abrupt, An Yunuo habitually apologized, she lowered her head sadly, like a child who had done something wrong, seeing her self-blaming appearance, Gan Yunting was a little distressed.

"It's okay, I've already accepted the reality. ”

There are too many stories in his words, and listening to An Yunuo's ears, he is so haggard.

"Then you ...... now"

She is not a person who likes to inquire about other people's affairs, but she doesn't know why, she wants to know everything about Gan Yunting, even if it is just a small thing, she also wants to know.

Her expression was cautious when she spoke, but she couldn't hide the curiosity in her eyes, which was still exactly the same as when she was a child, which made Gan Yunting unable to say no at all.

"That's what you see," he smiled and spread his hands, and reluctantly replied, "living on the streets." ”

"Huh?!"

An Yunuo imagined many results, but he never expected that he would be living on the streets, and it is no wonder that he would wear such clothes.

"And where do you live?"

She looked at him, worry already overflowing her face.

Seeing her frowning, Gan Yunting was happy for some reason, and he quickly raised his hand to rub his nose to hide the smile on his face that he could barely hide.

"Look, I used to find a random chair on the side of the street for the night, but today it's raining, so I can only resign myself to fate. ”

He finally sorted out his emotions, and in order not to let himself break his work again, he could only turn his face to look at the increasing rain outside, which had formed a rain fog, so that a layer of water mist hung on the glass of the convenience store.

On this day, it's really terrible.

His brows furrowed unconsciously, and An Yunuo looked at it beside him, feeling sour in his heart.

What kind of experience can make a person fall into the situation of living on the streets?

Is she really going to watch him wander around in the rain today?

An Yunuo, what the hell are you hesitating about?!

She asked herself in her heart, but she never dared to say that.

"By the way, can you take me in for one night?"

Gan Yunting turned his head and looked at her as if begging, his eyes were like stray puppies in the corridor, so that she couldn't refuse at all.

"Good. ”
