Chapter 111: Returning to China
Seeing off Lin Yuhan, Lin Yue's heart was empty, because it was a weekend and there was nothing to do at school, she simply wandered around the streets of Marseille.
At this time, it is already autumn, it is Lin Yue's favorite season, and autumn in Beijing is different, the most beautiful autumn in France is the plane trees, rows of tall plane trees on both sides of the road, golden leaves decorate the whole city.
She thought of the ginkgo biloba in Beijing, and when she thought of Beijing, she was a little sad, and she had been away for two years, and she went back very few times, one because she had no time, but the most important thing was that she didn't want to go back.
She walked to a wooden chair on the side of the street and sat down, pulled out her phone, and looked at the little boy on the screen, and she couldn't help but laugh.
This is Dudu, her child, who has grown up a lot now, with delicate facial features, eyes like his father, light blue, and he is as cute as a doll in the photo.
Lin Yue touched his little face through the screen, as if she could feel his soft skin, dear Siyang, mother misses you.
*One year later*
When Lin Yue stepped off the plane and stepped on the land, there was an inexplicable excitement in her heart, she finally came back!
She took a deep breath, even if the domestic environment is not as good as France, but no matter what, this is the motherland, the place where she lived and grew up.
Lin Yue, who came back, was already a 30-year-old mature woman, without the immaturity she once had, but with more precipitated beauty, big sunglasses covering her palm-sized face, a blue windbreaker, a white satin shirt with dark blue denim, shoulder-length curly hair, dyed a faint chestnut, so she attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared at the exit.
And Lin Yuhan and Ou Haiyang, who came to pick her up, naturally saw her at a glance, "Lin Yue, Lin Yue, here!"
Lin Yuhan waved his right hand a little excitedly, Lin Yue followed the voice and immediately smiled when she saw the two of them.
Pushing the suitcase over, Lin Yuhan stretched out his hand and gave her a big hug, and Ou Haiyang also sent a bouquet of flowers, and said with a smile: "Welcome back." ”
The three of them waited for a while to retrieve the checked luggage, Ou Haiyang became a porter, and Lin Yue walked in front with Lin Yuhan hand in hand, the two had not seen each other for a year, so naturally they had a lot to say.
Lin Yue fulfilled her original promise, and after graduation, she came to Shanghai, and joined a trading company as a manager under the recommendation of Lin Yuhan, which was already a good start for her.
She stayed in France for three years and had a lot of things, so she flew back to Shanghai directly from France, Lin Yuhan originally wanted her to live in her own home, but Lin Yue was unwilling and rented a one-bedroom apartment outside.
Ou Haiyang came from Beijing and drove them to the apartment that Lin Yuhan helped Lin Yue rent.
This is not far from where Lin Yue will work in the future, it is a high-end community in the middle of noisy, in a place like Shanghai, the rent is more than 3,000 a month, fortunately, Lin Yue has some savings, otherwise I am afraid that it will be a little tight.
At the time of the divorce, Chen Jinyan transferred a large amount of money to her account, but Lin Yue never moved, she didn't want any of Chen Jinyan's property, she just hoped that she would never see each other from now on.
The house is well decorated, the light is sufficient, the north and south are transparent, and Lin Yue liked it at the first glance when she saw this house, so even if the monthly rent was 3000, she felt that it was worth it.
"Well, isn't it? When I saw that this house was just like yours, I liked it very much, and I guessed that you would like it, so I decided on it. Lin Yuhan said with a smug smile.
Lin Yue nodded, "I like it, thank you, Yuhan." ”
Lin Yuhan looked at her disapprovingly, "Why are you so polite? We are friends, I will be angry if you do this again in the future." ”
Lin Yue took her hand and smiled, the two have known each other for three years and lived together for two years, but the relationship is very deep, just look at each other and understand.
"Let's go eat first, and I'll clean up for you after eating. Lin Yuhan looked at a few large boxes and said.
Ou Haiyang kept standing aside and didn't speak, Lin Yue glanced at him, and then at Lin Yuhan, not knowing what happened to the two of them.
The three of them went out to eat together, and Lin Yue secretly asked when Ou Haiyang went to check out, "How are you doing with Haiyang?"
Lin Yuhan can be said to have fallen in love with Ou Haiyang at first sight, since she first met in France, she decided to pursue him, and now it has been three years, but the two have not made much progress, and she herself is a little helpless.
She shook her head, "There is no progress, Ou Haiyang has always been like that, and he refused to confess to him, saying that he didn't want to delay my ......" Glimpse of Ou Haiyang coming over, she stopped and said to Lin Yue: "I'll tell you more at night, I'll stay at your house tonight." He winked at her.
Lin Yue nodded, both of them smiled knowingly, she looked at Ou Haiyang and said, "Haiyang, when are you going to fly? Go to the airport early, don't delay the time." ”
Ou Haiyang looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Then I'll go to the airport first and keep in touch." ”
The two watched Ou Haiyang get into the taxi before leaving, Lin Yuhan drove back to Lin Yue's apartment, and after parking the car, the two went up together.
At this time, it was late April, the sun was shining, the spring flowers were blooming, the two chatted while cleaning up, and the afternoon passed like this, and the house was finally cleaned up.
Lin Yue poured two glasses of water, and both of them leaned back on the sofa, tired from a busy afternoon.
"Lin Yue, when are you going to go to work?"
Lin Yue thought for a while, "After a while, I want to go back to Beijing tomorrow, I haven't been home for a long time, and besides, I ......"
Lin Yuhan patted her hand and signaled that she understood, yes, how could she not understand? She witnessed Lin Yue being pregnant for ten months, and reluctantly handed over the child to the Chen family to take away, and also accompanied her through the most difficult years, so she naturally understood that she wanted to go back to see her son.
Lin Yue smiled, looked at her and asked, "How is it, tell me about you and the ocean." ”
Lin Yuhan smiled bitterly, "What can I do?" ......she leaned back on the sofa, as if she was a little tired, "After three years of persistence, I'm really tired......"
She turned her head to look at Lin Yue, and said a little helplessly: "Lin Yue, I think the ocean has never forgotten you, maybe I won't be able to catch up with him in this life." ”
Lin Yue was silent, and she was also a little helpless, "Yuhan, you know, it's impossible for me to talk to him, I'll find a chance to talk to him......"
Lin Yuhan looked at her appearance and sneered, "Oh, this has nothing to do with you, he likes you and you can't change it, I won't have thoughts about you because of him, we will always be good friends." ”
Listening to Lin Yuhan's words, Lin Yue's heart was very touched, she was indeed a little worried, worried that Lin Yuhan would have a dislike for herself because of Ou Haiyang, because she had a painful experience, she was especially afraid that she would repeat the mistakes of the past, but Lin Yuhan said so.
Lin Yue's eyes were slightly red, she took a deep breath, hid the tears in her eyes, and smiled at Lin Yuhan, "Thank you, Yuhan, you are such a good girl, Ou Haiyang's eyes are not good." ”
"Say goodbye, don't say thank you!I'll be unhappy if I say it again!" Lin Yuhan pretended to be angry, and then suddenly laughed, "But I love to listen to the latter words, and the merits are worth it, haha!" Lin Yue also laughed, looking at Lin Yuhan's youthful appearance, as if she saw herself three years ago, although she still looks young now, but her heart is really old.
Lin Yue bought a plane ticket early in the morning, and the next day took a taxi to the airport with the gift she bought for her mother.
Shanghai to Beijing, a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers, the plane only arrived in two hours, the moment she stepped on her homeland, Lin Yue's eyes were red, but fortunately, she was wearing sunglasses and was covered.
Got into a taxi to that familiar alley, her heart also softened, she had only come back a few times after leaving for three years, and she was a little homesick at this time.
She stood in front of the courtyard gate, looked at the mottled iron gate, rang the doorbell next to her, and after a while she heard footsteps, "Who?" her mother's voice rang.
After the door opened, Lin Xiaowan was stunned, and after a while, a huge joy appeared on her face, "Xiaoyue, are you back? Why don't you tell your mother in advance, you girl!"
She excitedly pulled Lin Yue in, and after closing the door, she kept chattering, "You, tell me in advance how good it is, it's too late to make something delicious for you to eat now." ”
Lin Yue looked at her mother, although she hadn't seen her for a long time, she didn't seem to have changed at all, she seemed to be younger than three years ago, Lin Yue knew that Chen Jinyan often came to see her, and Hu Lanxin often sent supplements, her mother was doing well, Lin Yue looked at her, and she was only grateful in her heart.
It was close to noon, and Lin Xiaowan couldn't cook a sumptuous dish, so she had to make noodles and make Lin Yue's favorite hand-rolled noodles.
"Well, the noodles made by Mom are delicious! It's really satisfying......" Lin Yue drank all the soup in the bowl and touched her stomach with a satisfied face, "It's enough to eat." ”
Lin Xiaowan couldn't help laughing, she looked at her daughter's current appearance, and felt a lot more relieved, after three years outside, Lin Yue seemed to be a lot more cheerful, and her speech was playful, of course this was a good thing for her.
"Silly girl, no matter how delicious it is, you can't eat too much, so quickly stand up and walk around the house. Lin Xiaowan said to her while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.
Lin Yue stood up and watched her mother busy with her work, she was very emotional, her mother was very strict when she was young, and she was not even allowed to communicate with her classmates more, at that time, Lin Yue used to hate her.
But now that I think about it, my mother at that time should have been the hardest time in her life, she was young but unmarried and pregnant, and she was criticized, so she was so strict with herself, she should be afraid that she would repeat the mistakes of the past, right?
It's just that what she didn't expect was that although she was married, she still couldn't escape that fate, and Lin Yue knew that a single mother wanted to bring up a child, not only did she work hard, but the most bitter thing was the child, and she didn't want her child to live like that anyway, so she ruthlessly left him.
He will grow up slowly, and when he has peers around him, there should be children who will laugh at him for not having a mother, and he should be sad and hate himself at that time, right?
