"You have a good year, a beautiful woman in your prime, don't set up a lofty ambition, just sit in your hometown and wait for the flowers to wither...... Despise you. Miao Miao got up as she spoke.

"Well, I sometimes despise myself, too. After Lin Qian finished speaking, he extinguished the cigarette on the other end of the phone, "Okay, I won't tell you, I'll hang up first." ”

"I'll accompany you when you go back. Miao Miao suddenly spoke, "I haven't been back for a long time." ”

"Okay. ”

Miao Miao walked to the bathroom, only to realize that she was actually wearing pajamas - and not the one she usually wore.

The makeup on the face was also removed, but it was obviously not removed cleanly, there were traces of mascara on the eyelashes, and eyeliner could still be seen on the double eyelids.

So, who removed her makeup and changed her clothes last night?

Miao Miao frowned, shook herself again, and then went downstairs.

"Young lady, do you want something to eat?" asked the butler at once.

"Hmm......" Actually, Miao Miao doesn't have much appetite.

"There is still millet porridge in the kitchen, which was specially ordered by the young master to make it in the kitchen before going out today, do you want to taste a little?"

"Okay. Miao Miao nodded, sat down at the dining table, turned her head and asked the maid next to her, "Who changed my clothes last night?"

"It's the young master. The maid replied softly, "Yesterday, I wanted to help the young lady remove her makeup and change clothes after making sobering soup for the young lady, but the young master said that he could come, so ......"

Miao Miao endured the shock in her heart and nodded expressionlessly.

It's actually Mu Ningyuan?

Also, who else but him is so clumsy that he even buttons his pajamas are wrongly buttoned. But Miao Miao never chose Mu Ningyuan as a person, because she was convinced that Mu Ningyuan would never do these things!

But he actually ...... Really did!

Miao Miao used a small bowl of millet porridge in silence, and then went back to the room.

By the time Mu Ningyuan came back in the evening, she had already packed up all her emotions and could face him freely.

It doesn't matter, it's just an occasional accident, and it's better to treat it as if nothing happened.

Lin Qian stayed in City A for two days and told Miao Miao that she was going back to her hometown.

During dinner that day, Miao Miao talked about it by the way, and then told Mu Ningyuan: "I'm going to go back and play with Ah Qian for two days." ”

"What do you mean by playing for two days?" Mu Ningyuan's chopsticks paused, "Is the time really specific to two days?" or is it just a general idea?"

"Not necessarily. Miao Miao said casually, "It's probably only two days, maybe more than two days." It depends on the mood. ”

"Why, when I thought of going back to my hometown, my mood suddenly let go?" Mu Ningyuan glanced at Miao Miao.

"It's quite liberating, after all, no matter how good it is here, it's not Mu Zhai. Miao Miao nodded and said nonchalantly, "It's good that the house in our hometown still has my name written on the real estate certificate." ”

"You want this house?" Mu Ningyuan frowned and began to think about it.

Miao Miao thought that Mu Ningyuan's frown was laughing at her indiscretion, so she sarcastically said: "Don't worry, Mu Shao, I am self-aware, and I will not covet things that don't belong to me." ”

For example, the title deed, such as him.

"The position of Young Lady Mu was not your thing at the beginning, and now you are not in your hands. Mu Ning said far from salty.

Miao Miao looked regretful: "You and I both know that this is only temporary." Anyway, as soon as the deadline is up, I will return it, and I will give it to the real young lady of the Mu family...... The contracts are still on my bedside table!But Mu Shao, have you found a candidate for your favorite young lady Mu now?"

"What?" Mu Ningyuan raised his eyebrows, "Are you jealous?"

"Not really. Miao Miao shook her head and chuckled, "I just think so...... If there is such a person, you are very eager to let her stand by your side justifiably, but because of my relationship, you can only let her hide in the corner...... It's really a thing that makes people happy to think about. ”

Mu Ningyuan didn't have the slightest anger on his face: "Then you will be disappointed." ”

Miao Miao thought that the reason for her disappointment was that Mu Ningyuan hadn't met the person she liked for the time being.

But the reason why Mu Ningyuan said this was that the person he liked was indeed standing by her side now, and he was not hiding in a dark corner.

The two tacitly lowered their heads and continued to eat, and neither of them spoke again. It wasn't until the meal was finished that Mu Ningyuan suddenly spoke: "I remember, your high school teacher asked us to go back and have a look together when we are free?"

"Mu Shao's business is busy, and he must be unavailable. Miao Miao said directly, "So don't bother Mu Shao, you can make money with peace of mind, I will solve my affairs by myself, I won't trouble Mu Shao, don't worry." ”

Mu Ningyuan watched Miao Miao go upstairs with elegant steps, and sighed unconsciously.

Forget it, take your time, he hasn't got all the information about Miao Miao's past yet, and when the investigation results are available, he will be able to know why Miao Miao has changed so much, and then maybe, he will be able to know where the emotional breakthrough point between the two is.

Early the next morning, Miao Miao left the house with a small suitcase and met Lin Qian at the airport.

"Are you really leaving? are you really going to come out of your hometown again?" Miao Miao raised her eyebrows and looked at Lin Qian.

"Ah, really. Lin Qian sighed, and when the plane rose into the air, he looked at the small sandy city under his feet through the white clouds, "Don't come out again." ”

Miao Miao's hometown has a new and old county seat, the new county seat was developed decades ago, Miao Miao's family lives in the new county seat, but Lin Qian has been living in the old county seat before. The old county seat is an ancient city, and there is a river between the new and old county seats, which separates the new city from the old city.

"It's strange that the outside world is changing with each passing day, but the old city is still the way I remember it. The plane turned to the bus, and when the two got off in the old city, Lin Qian looked at the familiar scene around him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Tourist city, nature is like this. What you want is the old, not the new. Miao Miao said calmly.

Lin Qian's home is in a small attic. Her parents died early, and after a few years of compensation, she met Miao Miao in high school, and the two often worked together to earn a little pocket money, and then gradually became able to make money, but never changed houses.

Lin Qian, like Miao Miao, the inconspicuous house in his hometown is probably the last thought left to them by his parents.

They may not live there for a long, long time, but as long as the house is still there, then no matter where they are, they can feel that they have a home after all, not a rootless duckweed.

It is not difficult to live alone in this world, but it is difficult to resist the loneliness, silence, and nostalgia of being alone.

It was the rainy season, and the two of them walked through the bluestone street with umbrellas and close-fitting long skirts, attracting the attention of many people.

Lin Qian suddenly turned his head sharply.

"What's wrong?" Miao Miao asked.

Lin Qian's vigilant eyes looked around, and then smiled comfortingly: "It's nothing, probably because I'm too careful." ”
