Chapter 50: No Return

Linuo struggled to walk in the desert with no end in sight, and the heat was so hot that she felt like she was about to turn to ashes in the next second. Her mouth was thirsty, her head ached, and she hardly wanted to go any further, preferring to become a cactus in the gravel. But there was something lurking in front of her, and she had to keep walking, and then gradually dried......

"Grandpa...... I want to drink water......" In the dream she murmured unconsciously, and then she woke up slowly, and halfway through her consciousness she began to smile bitterly, tugging at her chapped lips, a tingling pain.

She was confused again, her grandfather had been in a car accident and left her forever, where was the person who sat by her to fan her and pour her water while she was sleeping?

Just as Lino was holding her drowsy head and trying to get up to find water, a cold glass was shoved into her hand without tenderness.

"You are like the Empress Dowager Cixi, you know how to enslave people when you sleep. Such a flat word can only come from someone's mouth.

Li Nuo looked at Feng Tuo fixedly for a few seconds, and his consciousness played back in his mind like slow motion. Yes, in the hospital, she and her father just sent their grandfather away. After the nurse pushed her grandfather away, she has been squatting there. Then he came, and he said, "Cry, Arnold." ”

She actually cried in his arms like this until she was weak, and the gloom of losing her loved ones returned to her heart again.

The person standing next to her was looked at by her, not feeling a little uncomfortable, "Do you have something on my face, look...... Watch me ...... Why?"

Li Nuo unintentionally laughed at Feng Tuo's sudden stammer, and looked around the room, "Where is this?"

"My home. He couldn't have replied more naturally.

Linuo's reaction was to immediately flip down, ignoring his own sense of powerlessness.

"There are no ghosts in my house, why are you scared like this. Feng Tuo pressed her angrily.

Lino sighed, "I have to go to the hospital, my grandfather just passed away, and there are a lot of things to do...... That's right...... Where's my dad?"

"It's been a day of sleep before I think of your grandfather, and if I really wait for you, it's delayed. Rest assured, the earth will turn like you. Uncle has already cleared the formalities at the hospital, as for your grandfather...... According to my uncle's wishes, I will be cremated in the crematorium first, and the rest of the matter will be done after the car accident is clear. ”

I don't know if it's because she just lost her grandfather's heart, but when he said the next few words, his tone softened a lot.

Linuo lowered her head, it turned out that she had slept for so long. As soon as she woke up, her grandfather was really separated from her forever.

"Where is my dad now?" she asked.

"Go back to deal with things first, you have been having a high fever, lying in the hospital for a long time, I see that you are fine, but you have been in a daze, so I will take you back to my house to rest first. ”

Linuo brushed his hair with his hand, "Oh, that's it, then thank you, I think I'd better go back first, I'm already well, and I can't feel at ease when I stay here." ”

Hearing that Linuo insisted on going back, Feng Tuo didn't keep it anymore, they had been together for so long, he was as familiar and understanding of Linuo as himself, how good Linuo and his grandfather felt, how sad she was, how could Feng Tuo not understand.

"I'll give it to you. As he spoke, Feng Tuo handed the car keys on the back of the sofa to Linuo, and took the car keys on the coffee table.

Linuo didn't refuse again, probably at this time, people's hearts will always be soft and fragile, and it is actually a fortunate thing to have someone who can always accompany him and take care of himself.

Their car drove directly to the suburban house where Grandpa Nuo lived, and when they were about to reach their destination, Nuo said to Feng Tuo: "You put me down at the next intersection, and I'll go back by myself." ”

"Why?" Feng Tuo didn't understand.

"I ......" Linuo hesitated a little, but continued to explain: "I haven't told my dad about our affairs yet, and now that this kind of thing has happened, I want to slow ......down for a while."

"How long will it take?" Feng Tuo's tone was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were firm.

Feng Tuo...... You don't want me...... You know I'm having a hard time now......"

"I didn't think about you, I just don't understand what your so-called principle is? When I went to the hospital to look for you yesterday, my uncle also saw it, and when I took you home, he also knew in his heart, what else do you need?" Feng Tuo asked with a frown.

"I'll call you, you... Drive slower. After saying this, Linuo reached out and pulled the car door and got out of the car, walking in the direction of home without looking back.

Feng Tuo looked at the resolute back of Linuo, and he didn't know why, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "You have indeed changed ......."

Linuo returned to his grandfather's house, the lily of the valley flowers on both sides were blooming, one by one, thinking that it was the result of grandpa's careful cultivation, and the lawn at the door was also trimmed neatly, the only thing that was a little awkward was that there was a blank paper on each of the two doors, which was the custom of this place, and the family died, and they had to paste white paper at the door of the house.

"Dad, I'm back. Linuo pushed open the door and saw his father and a few other people sitting in the courtyard talking something, all of them were fresh-faced, and Linuo couldn't name them.

"Are you feeling better?" he asked with concern when he turned around and saw his daughter's slightly tired face.

"Hmm...... Much better......" Linuo nodded.

"That's good, you came back alone?" said something from Xiaoyan's words.

"Hmm......" Linuo didn't plan to tell her father about herself and Feng Tuo today, she diverted the topic: "How is the car accident investigated? Is there anything I can help with......?"

"No, no, no. "Li Xiaoyan waved his hand, take care of it if you have time, grandpa is gone, and the top priority now is to settle down.

"Okay, I'll go see her. Linuo nodded, and took a step towards the back room.

Pushing open the door, she sat by in a daze, her eyes staring vacantly at the sky outside the window, not knowing what she was thinking.

"I'm back......" Linuo sat down, holding his hands together.

She can't remember how long she hasn't sat so closely, Linuo remembered that when she was a child, because her parents were too busy with work, her grandfather had always taken care of her growing up, and at that time she was a well-known beauty, beautiful and kind-hearted, and her hands were particularly skillful......

Later, when she grew up, Linuo was going to school, and she had less and less time to get along, when she was fifteen or sixteen years old, Linuo reached the rebellious period of youth, and began to refuse all kinds of care and care, let her wear autumn pants, she refused, let her drink chicken soup, she refused, and occasionally because of disagreements and disputes, every time at this time, grandpa always stood up as a mediator...... Later, she went to college and then went to work in the field...... I didn't come back for several months, and slowly and slowly, I felt that I was estranged from my grandfather a lot.

Linuo's hand was held tightly by Linuo, she didn't struggle, but the eyes that looked at Linuo were all unfamiliar.

"Who are you, and what are you doing here?" asked Linuo.

", I'm Xiaonuo, I'm Xiaonuo~" Linuo knew that since he suffered from Alzheimer's disease, his thinking and ability in all aspects were getting worse day by day, so he patiently explained.

"Arnold...... Xiao Nuo is good, it's cold outside, remember to wear autumn pants, you are now in the critical period of growing your body, you want to drink more chicken soup, do you hear?" Hearing the word "Xiao Nuo", he suddenly began to chatter.

Linuo listened to the nagging, suddenly his nose was sore, and tears filled his entire eyes, as if he was about to cry out in the next second, forgetting a lot of people and things after he was sick, but he still remembered the dispute between himself and her in the past.

I'm obedient, I wear autumn pants, and I will drink chicken soup, don't worry. Linuo comforted softly.

"That's good, Xiaonuo is the most well-behaved baby......" nodded with satisfaction and smiled happily.

She may not realize that her grandfather, who had been with her all the time to take care of her, was no longer there, and he would never return.

……

On the other side, Meng Yao and Liu Yu accompanied Meng Yao's parents to have a simple meal together, considering that the two old people came from a long distance, it must have been very hard to bump and work on the road, so no other activities were arranged.

At the dinner table, Meng Yao's parents were very satisfied with Liu Yu, and they didn't say much, and they ended today's dinner in harmony.

After the meal, Meng Yao and Liu Yu sent her parents back to the hotel to rest, in fact, Meng Yao had her own house here, but her parents insisted on staying in the hotel. Meng Yao didn't understand the good intentions of her parents, they were probably afraid that if Meng Yao and Liu Yu had already lived together, it would be really inconvenient for them in the past, and if they disturbed the young couple, it would be even worse.

Meng Yao didn't tell her parents that although she and Liu Yu were about to get married, nothing had happened between them...... It seems that there is always a wall apart, and neither of them has been able to open the door in their hearts to show each other.

Sending Meng Yao's parents to the hotel, it was still early, and at Liu Yu's suggestion, the two went to a nearby theater to watch a movie together.

Summer vacation is a time for filmmakers to compete for, and the movie theaters in the city are full of all kinds of domestic and foreign blockbusters, but the two coincidentally chose a literary film produced at a small cost.

The film is very smooth, suspenseful, and murder are intertwined, and the ninety minutes pass quickly, and the night is not wasted when they walk out of the theater together.

Liu Yu smiled: "It's rare to see you look so seriously." ”

Meng Yao said: "I didn't expect it to be such an ending. ”

"Didn't expect the actor to die?"

"No, I didn't expect him to be like that. ”

At the end of the film, the heroine's eyes made Meng Yao tremble inexplicably.

"You haven't ...... me" The heroine in the film finally looked at her husband and said, not a question, but a heart-to-death statement, as the hero's husband reciprocated her with a bullet to her eyebrows.

Meng Yao shook slightly in the wind.

"Who does not have a wounded city in his heart. Liu Yu said lightly: "Xiao Yao, are you very cold?" As he spoke, he untied his thin tweed and draped it over her.

Meng Yao didn't drive today, Liu Yu sent her home, and on the way from the theater to her home, you could see that the night in the city was full of flowing rainbow weather.

Liu Yu drove the car downstairs to Meng Yao's house and got out of the car to see her off. Meng Yao took off his coat and handed it back to him, she was wearing a lot tonight, but she still felt cold. I don't know if it's because she rarely feels like she is now, and she feels the need to have someone to rely on.

"I'm having a good night tonight. She smiled goodbye to him and turned to walk downstairs, feeling the void in her heart eat away at her with every step.

Keep me, don't leave me alone.

"Xiao Yao......" he called out to her.

Meng Yao turned, and there was an urge to cry.

Liu Yu stood far away and said, "You smile a lot like a person." ”

Like whom? like his ex-girlfriend, colleague, friend, someone with a story?

"It's cold at night, you go up, be careful of catching a cold. Liu Yu approached, lowered his head and landed his lips on Meng Yao's forehead. There was a softness to his lips that was very different from the tension.

"Do you want to go up and have a cup of tea?" Meng Yao said quickly, afraid that under hesitation, he would no longer have the courage.

Liu Yu was briefly taken aback when he heard this.

Meng Yao's ears were red, it was a little incredible, it was obvious that they were going to get married, but this was the first time she invited Liu Yu to her home, if he refused, then he would never have the face to see him again.

The other party didn't answer immediately, everyone is an adult, needless to say, they also know what silence means, Meng Yao's face turned even redder, but his heart was half cold, and the whole person seemed to be woken up by cold water.

Was she lonely and mad or was she tormented to lose her mind? Liu Yu is very much in line with her current expectations, and it is indeed true that she and he are the best choice. But if the other party feels that the time has not come, maybe they will think that she is a frivolous woman.

Meng Yao regretted it to the extreme, and without waiting for Liu Yu to refuse, he preemptively said, "I'll go back first, goodbye." ”

Saying goodbye in this way, the embarrassment of the two can be imagined.

Liu Yu stopped her before she could escape, and said quickly: "Xiao Yao, I always feel that you haven't really accepted me yet, and you haven't really opened your heart to me, so ...... I'm willing to keep waiting, waiting for the day when you really will. ”

"It's okay, I understand. Meng Yao's voice trembled.

She said goodbye to Liu Yu's embrace and continued to walk forward, and the moment she turned, there was the roar of fireworks in her ears, and the sky not far away was as bright as a dream.

Many years ago, she and Zhang Li were on the balcony of the company, and they couldn't see the fireworks, but only the light on the tall buildings in the distance. Now the sky is full of color, but the original happiness is invisible.

The two of them may have had no fate from the beginning.
