The debate tournament ended successfully, and after returning to school, the club was praised by the school, and life went on as always, plain and safe, but it seemed to be different, Luo Luo only remembered in a trance after a nap, that difference for her, maybe it was because of Ning Shi's company.

Luo Luo went home directly on the weekend, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw an old man sitting alone in the yard. The old man was dressed in a blue coat draped over his shoulders, his whole body was dusty, his face was full of knife marks carved by the years, and his thick round fingers pinched a cigarette, and the faint white smoke continued to rise.

Luo Luo hurriedly called grandpa, put the things at the door and ran to the old man, grabbed the cigarette without saying anything, and put it behind his back, "Grandpa, are you coughing?"

"Alright, it's all right. Grandpa smiled and was glad to see her back.

Luo Luo blinked his eyes and looked at him condescendingly, and the old man really lowered his head quickly, not daring to look directly into her gaze.

Seeing him like this, she couldn't help but sigh and crouched down, trying to make eye contact with her grandfather.

"Grandpa, you don't care about your body, but your granddaughter still cares! Don't you think about it for yourself, you say that you just keep coughing and coughing, and you don't go to the doctor and keep smoking, what can I do if something really happens?"

The old man was still smiling, waving his hand indifferently, "Oh, the master is at this age, let's die, death is also a relief." ”

Luo Luo was anxious, "Why do you think you say such things again? I am just a relative like you, doesn't you make me anxious when you say this?"

"What's the urgency of this, birth, old age, sickness and death, that's all fate, when you live to your grandfather's age, you will understand. The old man smacked his lips, as if he was recalling something, and then said obediently: "Okay, okay, I won't smoke, you just came back, and the master will make you something to eat." ”

Luo Luo watched the old man get up steadily, staggered towards the kitchen, and then stood up a little deflated, and couldn't help but debunk it: "You said so anyway, you just know that I can't do anything about you! ”

After a big turn, Luo Luo finally decided to hide the cigarette stick in the bookcase, which was full of textbooks that had not been used before, all of which were floating ash, and it was estimated that even if Grandpa looked for it, he probably wouldn't come to turn it over.

She went back to the yard to get the things she had just thrown in the door, and saw Aunt Li lying on the wall, "Oh, we're back!"

"Hmm. Luo Luo smiled, "I was just going to your house." As she spoke, she picked up a bag of fruit and went up to the stone pier, and then handed it to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li was flattered, and waved her hand and said, "Don't, you kid, why are you so polite!"

"Yes, thanks to you for helping me watch my grandfather, I can study outside with confidence, and I will have to trouble you more in the future, if you don't accept me here, I have to be abducted to your house. ”

Grandpa stood at the door of the kitchen and said, "Aunt Li, take it, the child has a heart." ”

Aunt Li smiled again and again, "Hey, then I'll take it." Aunt Li took the fruit and was very happy, "I see that you are on TV!

Luo Luo was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what kind of competition Aunt Li was talking about, and he was embarrassed to brush the broken hair between his sideburns, "Well, the school organized a debate tournament to participate in, and arranged for me to do a debate in the semi-finals." ”

"Look, I said that day, I look like you, it's really you, you have a chance!" Aunt Li's words of praise were endless, and finally she said: "Luoluo her master, you will be blessed in the future!"

Grandpa seemed to have just heard the news, and immediately nodded with a smile on his lips. He is not good at words, and he always smiles at people, but Luo Luo knows that he is also very happy when he looks at him.

When Aunt Li entered the house, Luo Luo turned around and followed his grandfather into the kitchen, put the fruit bag down, and took out an orange and peeled it, "The competition has given you some fruit and two clothes." ”

The old man never loved these things, and said with a slight reproach: "What to buy, I don't lack anything, don't buy it in the future." Then he asked, "What about that dress, go and ask if you can return it?" I have clothes, they are all enough to wear." ”

She ignored him, only took out a petal, and handed it to the old man's mouth attentively, "Grandpa, you can taste it, see if it's sweet." ”

The old man didn't give much face, and stubbornly dodged, "I don't like to eat that thing, you can eat it." ”

"Orange supplements vitamin C, just eat one, otherwise I won't eat it, and it's a pity to throw it away. ”

Seeing that Luo Luo insisted, the old man couldn't eat some. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Luo Luo happily took over the unfinished work in his grandfather's hands and kicked the old man out of the kitchen.

"You told your classmates to hurry up and drive away, ahem...... If we break it here, we have to pay for it. Grandpa sat in the small courtyard and coughed softly.

Luo Luo thought silently, if Ning Shi saw the car placed here, she would probably frown, she didn't want it, but she still let out a well-behaved sigh.

The next afternoon, under the reminder of his grandfather again, Luo Luo took a bucket of water and wiped it up little by little. After such a long time, the body has already been attached to a thick layer of ash, Luo Luo wiped it down little by little, very carefully, until the body is as clean as new, then he took out his small mobile phone and called Ning Shi.

"Missed me?" the man's voice was rarely teasing.

"Go, don't talk nonsense. Luo Luo's ears were red, "Come to my house tomorrow, and drive your car away by the way." ”

"What's wrong with my car again. ”

Luo Luo was helpless, so he could only relay his grandfather's words truthfully: "My grandfather said that if I don't leave, the village party secretary will take down my family's poverty subsidy, and it won't be good if I bump into it." ”

"How's Grandpa's health, is it okay?" Ning Shi asked again.

Luo Luo sighed unconsciously, "It's still the same, as soon as I come back, he always holds back, and he coughs twice when he can't hold it back, and I don't dare to say more, and he also secretly smokes while I'm not there, I confiscated the cigarette stick, and actually changed it to smoking cigarettes......"

Unconsciously chatted for a long time, Luo Luo hung up the phone unsatisfied, she looked at the length of the call, only to realize later, it turned out that she would also have a time to make porridge on the phone, no matter who she talked to on the phone in the past, even if the other party was Xiaoxue, most of the time she was a listener, Xiaoxue chattered, but I didn't expect that now it was my turn, and I could say so.

Is this the magic of love? to turn a person who is not good at words into a complete chatterbox?

She quickly edited a text message: "I just didn't talk too much. 」

The message showed that it was sent successfully, but Luo Luo waited left and right without waiting for a reply. She patted her head a little discouraged, where did Ning Shi look like the kind of person who would reply to other people's text messages?

I was about to pack up the bucket and rag and enter the house, but I didn't expect the phone to buzz and vibrate twice.

Luo Luo clicked and saw that it was Ning Shi's information.

"It's fine. 」

Luo Luo smiled knowingly, and put everything down, for fear that he would ignore her if he replied late.

"Aren't you annoyed with me?"

This time, the text message reply was much faster: "No. 」

Luo Luo pursed her lips, the two text messages were two-word replies, someone really cherished words like gold! But even so, she was still happy in her heart.

She thought for a moment and quickly edited another one: "What are you doing?"

"Read a book. 」

"Then I'm bothering you. 」

"It's okay. 」

"Okay?" What does it mean to be okay?

Then she wouldn't bother him, she still has this bit of eyesight.

Thinking like this, Luo Luo angrily put away his mobile phone and went to finish the unfinished work angrily.

The day passed quickly, Luo Luo woke up from his dream with great ease, and the dream was very clear, but the moment he sat up, he forgot all about it.

She stretched her waist, habitually took out her mobile phone from under the pillow and looked at the time, only to find that there were three unread messages in it, but they were all from Ning Shi.

"Why didn't you reply to me?"

"Angry?"

"Why?"

Luo Luo snorted and laughed, this fool is rare to have such an unshrewd side, it's really ...... It's hard to get angry.

didn't wait for noon, Ning Shi came, grandpa was much more familiar with him than last time, Luo Luo saw that there were still some leftover fruits, thinking that Ning Shi would not eat it, so he pretended to cut some and put it on the plate, planning to wait for the opportunity to force grandpa to eat it.

As soon as she entered the room, the atmosphere in which the two of them had been talking about it just now suddenly cooled down, and she was a little suspicious, secretly wondering, what did she have to say behind her back.

When it was time to leave, Luo Luo looked back step by step, and at this time his grandfather had already entered the house, and the big iron door was tightly closed.

"Uncomfortable?"

Luo Luo sniffed and shook his head, "No, I'm used to it." ”

The car started, she slowly looked out the window, drove through the field village road, and the outside was full of greenhouses with film buckles, although she couldn't see clearly, she also knew that it must be green, and the melons, fruits and vegetables were growing non-stop.

The pavilion is like a cover, and it is about the most beautiful scene.

"Actually, I don't like going home the most, because every time I go home and leave again, I always feel very uncomfortable, and really, habit is habit," she laughed like a flower, "but I'm a little fed up with this emotion." ”

She saw Ning Shi's Adam's apple rolling, and then the words came out, "You are so worried about your grandfather's body, you can let him move to me." ”

Ning Shi hated others encroaching on his private territory the most, and it was not easy to say this.

Luo Luo was very pleased, but still rejected his kindness, "Forget it, my grandfather will definitely not go, don't look at him as he doesn't like to talk, but he is actually very stubborn." I let him eat a fruit, he didn't want to eat a cigarette, he secretly smoked, and he wouldn't wear the new clothes he bought in the cupboard......" She couldn't help but smile, "Look, my grandfather is like this, isn't it particularly incomprehensible?"

Ning Shi glanced at her, quickly retracted his gaze, and only one word faintly overflowed in his throat: "Hmm." ”

Luo Luo slowly explained: "In fact, he is just reluctant, reluctant to eat, reluctant to wear, a dollar is broken in half to spend, and the money saved is only used on me in the end except for smoking." ”

At this time, the car in which the two of them were riding steadily drove on the spacious highway, the sun was blazing outside the window, the green was surging between the undulating mountains on both sides, and the window was melancholy and graceful, and the sound was good.

Luo Luo raised his hand to catch a ray of sunlight shining in from the window, and it was reflected at his fingertips, and the slightly rough and messy fingerprints were visible at a glance. She quietly looked at the lines on her fingertips, and said in a brisk voice: "My grandfather, I have only smoked such a hobby in my life, but I didn't expect to be deprived of it from time to time in the end." ”

Ning Shi glanced at her lightly and said idly, "What did you do?"

Luo Luo blinked playfully, "I, I've found all the dry tobacco he secretly hid, and then ......" The voice changed suddenly, "I hid in another place." ”

Sure enough, Ning Shi was teased by her so that the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and her face was as warm as a spring breeze.

"Naughty. He gave her a rare compliment.

"But it's useless for me to hide it, he can't find it, and he'll definitely buy it again. Luo Luo sighed regretfully, and then rolled his eyes, "But I remember that someone seems to smoke too." She said and got up sideways and stared straight at Ning Shi in the driver's seat, who someone was, it was self-evident.

Ning Shi didn't speak, tense.

Luo Luo didn't speak, but all kinds of eyes flew towards him without shying away.

In the end, Ning Shi took the lead in disarming and surrendering, "I only smoke one occasionally when I'm in a bad mood." ”

Luo Luo squinted his eyes and doubted deeply: "Are you sure your mood is only occasionally bad?"

It's often bad, isn't it?

Ning Shi was helpless, almost inaudible and silent, looking at him left and right, "Have you ever thought about sending your grandfather to the hospital?"

Luo Luo was really successfully diverted in this way, and he was a little worried, "Of course I want to, but if he doesn't go, it's useless to persuade anyone." Suddenly, she remembered something, "What did you and my grandfather talk about when I went to cut fruit just now?"

Ning Shi's index finger tapped on the steering wheel, and it was regular and orderly, as if she was contemplating something, but she couldn't see it at all.

Isn't it a demon......

Is it wearing it back?

It won't be so fast!

Luo Luo thought like this, stretched out his hand with some uncertainty, and shook it twice in front of Ning Shi, who seemed to be an old monk. Almost instantly, the wheels and the road surface seemed to have fixed gears, and they came to a stop with the characteristic screeching sound of sudden braking.

Because of inertia, both of them leaned forward suddenly, and then they were suddenly pulled back by the seat belt and re-tied to the seat.

"Luoluo. ”

In addition to being frightened, Luo Luo clearly heard the man's voice that seemed to be like a snowy mountain, just two words, more like biting out.

She knew she was in trouble.

Fortunately, they are the only car on this stretch of road, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!

"I didn't mean to...... I'm sorry. She bit her lip, her heart was very empty, although Ning Shi was more indulgent than before, she could feel that this time he was really angry.

She barely dared to even look at it, just lowered her head, like a child who didn't know what to do.

Ning Shi looked at her like this, and was silent for a long time before he let out a low sigh, restarted the car, and drove steadily.

Along the way, the car was cold and breezy, eerie and terrifying, Luo Luo could almost be called restless, cloudy and uncertain, when she was bold, she secretly glanced at Ning Shi, and then shrank back in fright by the cold and solemn face.

Tossing and turning, tossing and turning, the heart is like being roasted on a hot fire and then falling into ice water to cool.

Until the car was parked in the underground garage, a whole row of five cars were parked in turn, and the order never changed, and the one that was now driving was steadily parked in the sixth parking space.

Later, she learned that the six parking spaces in this row were all owned by Ning Shi, and these six cars were naturally too.

Ning Shi unbuckled the seat belt on her body, Luo Luo of course followed the action, and was just about to get out of the car, but suddenly heard a click in the car, and before she could react to what was going on, she couldn't push it in her hand anyway.

She was stunned, immediately lowered her head obediently, sat back upright, and continued to look like "regret and learn from the pain".

However, the man next to her didn't speak, just stared at her with that fluttering but compelling gaze, staring at her so that her scalp was numb, dizzy, and dizzy.

"I really know it's wrong, Ningshi. Luo Luo muttered.

"Hmm. The man's voice was neither angry nor joyful.

She hesitated, entangled, but had to continue, "I'm just afraid that you'll go back suddenly...... I just wanted to stretch out my hand and test it. ”

"Hmm. "This time the voice seems to have a color and mood, and it's the kind for the better.

Luo Luo plucked up the courage to continue: "I was thinking that if you really left, we haven't said goodbye yet......

He hooked her chin and forced her to look directly at him, "Reluctant to let me go?"

Luo Luo's eyes flickered, "Hmm." ”

"In that case, have you changed your mind?" she saw his gaze slowly descend, from her face to her tangled hands resting on her knees, their wrists pearlescent, red and low.

"I ......," she bit her lip.

However, he had lost interest in listening any longer, and suddenly reached out his hand, wrapped his arm around the back of Luo Luo's neck, buckled her hair on the other side, and slowly hugged the person into his arms.

He could feel that the girl had changed from the initial tightness to soft and docile, just lying in his arms so demure and well-behaved, and between her noses was the fragrance of her long inky hair, like a tempting fruit and vegetables, fresh and sweet.

At this moment, it has been quiet for more than a year, and the years are quiet.

If it weren't for these many scruples, he would have imprisoned her in his arms forever.

He narrowed his eyes dangerously, this woman imprisoned his heart, but he was reluctant to imprison her, only this short and dull company, he was still greedy.

"Ningshi, don't be angry, okay?" the girl's silly voice opened warmly in his chest.

He scoffed, "I'm not you." ”

Luo Luo nestled in his arms and couldn't help frowning. Why does it seem like she's stingy?

"But ......," the man's voice immediately became stern, "not next time." ”

"Uh-huh. Luo Luo nodded heavily in his arms, and his face rubbed up and down his chest.

"My body is dead, at most I will go back, if you ......" the man paused, lowered his eyes to meet Luo Luo's puzzled gaze, "There will be nothing." ”

There's nothing left......

Luo Luo was suddenly, and there was a trace of coldness and endless fear on his back. If something really happened to her, it was still in front of Ning Shi, and he would probably be very sad.

"I was wrong. This time she really knew she was wrong, not admitting it for the sake of admitting it.

She felt the man's arms around her tighten, her face pressed against the man's chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat rising and falling in his chest, and it seemed to be beating for her.

For a moment, she almost blurted out, she thought...... Be with him forever.

But she can't afford to make a promise, she still has unfulfilled responsibilities, unfulfilled missions, and unfulfilled wishes.

She thought silently, she probably missed him, she would never meet someone who loved her like this in her life.

However, in the end, she still didn't say anything.

"Actually, your grandfather didn't say anything to me. ”

She finally pulled out some thoughts, trying to clear her doubtful glances at him, but all she could see was the faint blue stubble.

"He just asked me about my relationship with you, how I got along, whether I was sincere, and that kind of thing. I also told me not to delay your studies. ”

Sure enough, the girl in her arms was silent, "Then how did you answer?"

Ning Shi was very happy," replied truthfully. ”

Luoluo: "......"

How does it feel like he said it, and it seems like he didn't say anything.

*

A few days later, Grandpa called Luoluo, saying that the village committee had obtained a quota for several elderly people living alone to go to a sanatorium, and Grandpa was one of them, the environmental conditions were very good, and the expenses were also paid by the state, and he wanted to go over and have a look.

Luo Luo thought about it, this is fine, at least during her absence, someone can take care of her grandfather. She took a half-day leave to accompany her grandfather to see it in person, and she was very satisfied.

The room is divided into four rooms and double rooms of ordinary rooms, as well as single rooms of VIP suites, with the arrival of several village elders to draw lots, in the end only the grandfather lucky to draw a VIP, the other people were drawn according to the room was beaten into different ordinary rooms.

A series of big pies smashed on his head one after another, Luo Luo couldn't help but be a little suspicious, and repeatedly confirmed with the staff of the nursing home that it was indeed the latest policy in the city, and there was no need to pay a penny, just check in with your bag, and there were special nutritionists with packages, professional medical facilities and medical staff, specially equipped masseurs and entertainment facilities for the elderly who were good for health, all available.

Before being admitted to the hospital, there were professional staff who did a comprehensive and detailed health screening for several elderly people, and grandpa's cough was only caused by old lung trauma.

Finally, Luo Luo filled in his contact information on the first emergency contact, paused on the space of the second emergency contact, and filled in the contact information of Yu Linling.

Xiaoxue is not in the country, Aunt Li does not often go out of the village, Ning Shi will always go back in the future, think about it, only Yulinling is the most suitable. The relationship between them can be regarded as a fateful friendship, and her own life was saved by her at the beginning, and the second emergency contact, filling in her is also the safest.

At night, Ning Shi sat alone on the bay window, the glass in his hand was bright and transparent, and a layer of red wine was poured shallowly at the bottom of the glass, which was as red as blood.

The lights outside the window are brilliant and the night view is bustling.

The computer screen that had been tossed aside suddenly lit up, revealing a document inside. He opened it, lightly scanned the text on the information, and finally landed on the emergency contact page, the first line was indeed Luo Luo's name, and his eyes touched the second line......

"Li Chun. The voice came out of the man's throat, as if it had some inexplicable origin.

Ning Shi raised his head and drank the red wine, and his lips became moist and red.
