He rested in peace

Despite the ill-fated circumstances

He still lives in secret

He lost his angel and he died

Things happen naturally

It's like night falling, and the sun is falling

Victor Hugo – "Les Miserables"

"Mommy, are you ready? Si Xiaojun, who just passed his sixth birthday yesterday, was wearing a gray suit, a white shirt, and a black bow at the neckline, standing at the door of the cloakroom, holding his arms, tilting his head to look at Si Qi, who was staring at a pile of clothes: "It's very rude to be late for a date." ”

Si Qi hesitated to hold a black skirt and a blue skirt, comparing back and forth for a long time, and finally couldn't help but turn around and ask cheekily: "Son, which skirt do you say Mommy wears better." ”

Si Xiaojun sighed, pointed to the blue skirt, and said very solemnly: "If you wear a black dress at night, it will scare others, and when you meet for the first time, the first impression is very important." ”

"Oh, sure enough, the hero sees the same thing. Si Qi nodded thoughtfully, slapped his son outside the door, quickly changed into a blue skirt, thought about it, and tied a small silk scarf of the same color around his neck, obviously the person in the mirror looked slim, but she always felt that something was wrong when she looked left and right, and after thinking for a long time, she had to comb her meticulous hair again in the mirror, and replaced the red earrings with blue, feeling that there was nothing wrong with her whole body, so she breathed a long sigh of relief and pushed open the door with her head held high.

Si Xiaojun was already waiting at the door, polishing her little blue leather shoes, the little satchel was hung around his neck, and he leaned against the door with his little hands behind his back: "Mommy, hurry up, there are still thirty minutes." ”

Looking at the demeanor of a little gentleman's son, and then looking at the deep and vast night outside, Si Qi, who was originally majestic and high-spirited, suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

The blind date was set at half past eleven in the evening, and this was the first time she had met, and she once suspected that the other party was not socially phobic, but a monster who could not see the sun and could only appear at night.

For example, the vampire in the movie.

Fortunately, there are times when people in this world are far more terrifying than ghosts.

Si Qi shrugged his shoulders, didn't hesitate any longer, and pulled his son out of the door to go on this weird blind date in the middle of the night.

The café was open 24 hours a day, not far from her, but the location was very remote, at the end of a side street, about a fifteen-minute walk, and the sides of the side of the street were planted with willows, and the long branches hung down and fluttered gently in the night breeze.

It's the beginning of July, and the weather in Jincheng has entered the scorching summer season, and the night is also unbearably hot, making people just want to stay at home with air-conditioned potato chips and mobile phones.

The location is remote, and it is late at night, there are fewer pedestrians on the road, and the light box hanging with the name of the café is glowing with light blue, which is quite warm in the night, especially the two words "forget" that are very literary and artistic, which make people feel good at first glance.

Si Qi stopped, looked up at the name of the store, and suddenly relaxed his originally complicated and heavy mood.

"Mommy. When Si Qi was about to push the door, Si Xiaojun took her hand, looked up with a white and tender little face, and said solemnly: "Although my grandparents want a son-in-law very much, and I also want a father, but Mommy doesn't want to find a random person." ”

Si Qi lowered his head, looked at him, a hazy smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, and asked a little playfully: "Then what kind of mommy should look for?"

Si Xiaojun thought about it for a while, and then said: "I want to find a good person, a good person who is good to Mommy." ”

Si Qi couldn't help laughing, touched his head, turned to look at the dark and empty street, and then looked at the light box that exuded a warm atmosphere, and resolutely pushed open the black glass door in front of him.

Life is an adventure with no return, ups and downs, and now she has been at the bottom for five years, and no matter how bad her luck is, she may not be able to go anywhere!

She didn't believe that she would stay at the bottom of the darkness for the rest of her life.

She had no way back but to rush forward.

Table 54 is in the far corner of the café, only the corner is lit by a slightly dim shadow lamp, the shadow in the corner is full, dim and gloomy, especially the shadow lamp is painted on the picture of a snake demon with nine heads, grinning teeth, showing sharp fangs and a crimson tongue, much like the scene in some horror movies.

There was a man sitting at the table against the wall, his body was straight, but his head was lowered, his face could not be seen clearly, as if he was giving silent mourning, he was motionless, he seemed to have merged with the darkness, a touch of isolation and indifference spread out silently, like a barrier around him, making him alien from the world outside the table, he was like a person who had lived in the darkness since childhood.

This was Si Qi's first impression of Shi Jing.

Mo Wenqing had already made it clear to her when he introduced her, the other party has serious social phobia, has lived alone for many years, and has a withdrawn personality, is not good at words, and is not close to women, so he is obviously worth a lot of money, but he is still single.

Of course, it is reported that Shi Jing's parents are both intellectuals and have a remarkable family background, so why Shi Jing, who is from an extraordinary background, has social phobia, Mo Wenqing did not say.

In fact, Si Qi doesn't care about these, there are all kinds of people in the world, everyone has an unknown past, even people like her exist, what is social phobia, what is a withdrawn personality and not close to women, there is nothing to make a fuss about, her heart is wider than the sea, she doesn't take these things to heart at all.

The waitress led her to stand far away around the corner, and saw that she had been staring at the strange man in the corner in a daze, her eyes were full of strange question marks, but she quickly turned around and left, there were only two people on the night shift, and she didn't have much time to wonder about other people's worlds.

Si Qi took a deep breath and led her son slowly to the table, the closer she was, the more she could feel the low pressure and rejection emanating from Shi Jing's body, and within a radius of three meters, there seemed to be nearly four big characters written on it.

In the past two years, she has been kissed many times, but none of them have been so helpless as now, and the lively and cheerful self-acquaintance she has studied for a long time seems to have suddenly failed.

So, she stood three meters away in embarrassment, staring at Shi Jing who was always hanging her head as if she was living in the dark, a little hesitant, not knowing how to step forward to say hello, and I didn't know if people with social phobia were used to getting straight to the point, or were they used to being tactful and reserved?

Fortunately, at this time, her son, who had been gifted since childhood, saved her again, Si Xiaojun let go of her hand, took steady steps, walked to the table where Shi Jing was sitting, knocked lightly on the table, and asked very politely: "May I ask Mr. Shi Jing who is going to go on a blind date with my mother?"

Three seconds later, Shi Jing, who heard that he was the president of a very famous technology company, slowly raised his head, and in the dim light, he couldn't see his face clearly, he could only vaguely see that he was wearing a black suit, even his shirt was black, in such a hot weather, it was wrapped so tightly, it seemed that he was not afraid of the heat.

He leaned back invisibly, as if he was very resistant to Si Xiaojun's appearance, his eyes quickly swept over Si Qi, nodded reluctantly, subconsciously moved the stool back, and then lowered his head again, retracted his world lifelessly, and erected a seemingly insurmountable barrier, as if they were all flood beasts.

Si Qi paused, pulled his stiff face, walked up lightly, pulled out the chair and sat down, picked up Si Xiaojun and put him on the chair next to him, and then looked at Shi Jing opposite: "Hello, I'm Si Qi, Mr. Mo Wenlan introduced me, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Very cliché opening line.

Shi Jing was silent, and responded in a low voice, his voice was low and hoarse, and his voice trembled slightly: "You... Hello... I'm Shi Jing..."

Very short response.

He didn't look up, he always maintained a posture of lowering his head and eyes, leaving only a full and white forehead for the blind date, and his face was really white, almost white and a little abnormal.

In the past few days, Si Qi has deliberately checked some information on social phobia on the Internet, and she is sad about it, and she is very empathetic, so she is no longer reserved and polite, and goes straight to the point: "Everyone already understands each other's situation, since you are willing to come out to meet, it is to agree with Mr. Mo Wenlan's proposal, meeting today is very simple, that is, let us all know what the other party looks like, and it will be convenient to deal with each other's families in the future, after all, the two families need to meet sooner or later." ”

After speaking, she took out a document bag from her bag, took out half of the contents and put it on the table, "This is the agreement I signed, as well as my personal information and the introduction of family members, including my asset certificate, credit report, daily habits, and my son Xiaojun's information, you can take it home and read it slowly, we don't have to meet from time to time, if you need my cooperation, just send me a text message at any time, on the contrary, if I need it, please try to find time to cooperate." ”

She packed up the file bag and gently pushed it in front of Shi Jing, her gaze lowered slightly, and landed on the desktop in front of Shi Jing, not looking directly at his face.

After a long time, Shi Jing, who was silent, took out something from the chair next to him and handed it over, his hands were as pale as his face, and he was very thin, and he could see the protruding wrist bones and the green tendons on the back of his hands.

Seeing that it was also a document bag, Si Qi couldn't help but smile and asked, "This is your information?"

Shi Jing nodded.

Si Qi raised his eyebrows, stuffed the document bag directly into the bag, and said with a smile: "I believe we can work together happily, at least we are very similar in some aspects." ”

Everyone is very direct, very defensive, all averse to communication, neither is willing to contact too many strangers, they all stick to the door of their respective worlds, they are reluctant to go out, and they do not want anyone to come in.

Shi Jing didn't speak, but just put her information aside noncommittally.

Si Qi nodded and said decisively: "Then I'll go back first, and I'll contact you by text message if you have something." Without waiting for the other party to speak, she picked up Si Xiaojun and put him on the ground, took his hand and walked out.

"Mommy, will he be my dad in the future?" Si Xiaojun looked back at the future father who didn't even see his face clearly as he walked.

Si Qi's face was full of black lines, he hurriedly covered his mouth, and said with a smile: "Can you be a little reserved?"

Si Xiaojun pursed his lips, his eyes showed disappointment, and she quickly pulled him out of the café.

Walking to the intersection around the corner in one breath, Si Qi slowly spit out the breath held in her chest, she squatted down and asked her son with a proud face: "Xiaojun, how did Mommy behave just now?"

Si Jun hugged her and kissed her hard, and said loudly: "Mommy, of course you are the best." ”

Si Qi stroked his hair and laughed, and then found that this was on the street, and hurriedly pursed his mouth and picked up his son, "Let's go, we can go home and sleep, but I can't tell grandma about today." ”

Si Xiaojun put his arms around her neck and nodded like a very small adult: "I know, I have to wait for you to stabilize before telling grandma." ”

Si Qi glared at him speechlessly: "Where did you learn this?"

Si Xiaojun looked up very proudly: "It's all played like this on TV." ”
