Chapter 11: Chinese New Year's Eve

In the first year after graduation, they all called me to go home for the New Year, I didn't want to go back, but I didn't want Zhou Sheng to worry, so I lied to them and said that I was going home. It was actually me lying alone in the apartment for a few days. The apartment I rented after graduating from college and is half an hour from the company's subway.

In the second year after graduation, none of them called me to ask if I wanted to go home for the New Year, and I told Ah Li and Zhou Sheng to go home on the 28th. On the evening of the 27th, I went to the supermarket to buy some instant noodles, fruits, vegetables and other necessities, and stayed at home all day reading novels and watching movies. I don't feel anything.

On the thirtieth day, I thought that the New Year had arrived, and although there was nowhere to go, I still had to buy a set of clothes and go through a formality to celebrate the New Year. So I took the subway and went to a shopping mall that Zhou Sheng and I had never been to before. There are not many people in the mall, and even if there are people, they are in pairs. I was the only one, and I was getting more and more lonely.

Over the years, under the care of Zhou Sheng and Cheng Qinli, I have forgotten that I am actually no different from orphans. All of a sudden, I lost interest. When I was in a bad mood, I wanted to eat, so I went upstairs to the teahouse to find a window position, ordered a cup of coffee, and ate two cakes slowly. When I was 5-6 years old, although the relationship between my parents was not good, I maintained a superficial peace. At least at that time, they still loved me and would buy me beautiful clothes and good food. It's just that then I don't know what's wrong, and I'm getting farther and farther away from them.

Thinking about it, tears flowed before I knew it.

"It's you. "Suddenly someone greeted me.

I quickly wiped away my tears and looked up.

It's Yuan Zhi. I smiled at him.

He sat down across from me and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"

I smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm homesick."

So why don't you go home?

I smiled and didn't speak.

He didn't see that I had answered, and he didn't ask anything more.

He glanced at his watch and said, "It's time for lunch, let's go, please eat." ”

I hurriedly said: "No need, today Chinese New Year's Eve, you also have to go home to accompany your family, don't worry about me, I will go back immediately." ”

He stood up, pulled me up, and said without refusal: Let's go.

The moment he turned around, I suddenly realized that his shoulders were so wide that I couldn't help but want to lean on. The warmth of my heart flowed, tears fell involuntarily, but a smile bloomed silently on my lips.

He took me to a Sichuan restaurant, in a relatively deep alley, with classical decoration and leisurely temperament.

He said that this Sichuan restaurant is good in the city, and took me to try it.

I didn't reply, I just looked at him from behind, looked at him, and only saw my scattered heart.

The smile on my lips never faded.

When ordering, he said: I can't accompany you at night, now as a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, eat well, and order whatever you want.

I nodded.

He was so kind, so kind that I felt that this spoiling should belong to me, and I couldn't help but want to be coquettish. Since my parents separated, I have never been unreasonable and have ever found anyone to be spoiled.

I'm done. My voice has become less squeamish, so soft.

Good.

He added two more dishes, called the waiter, and placed an order. Then pour me some water and say, "Drink some water first, wait a minute."

Well.

He laughed and said: either not answer, or a word. Why do you talk so much to Ali?

I was embarrassed and said, "Where?"

He said: You don't have to be restrained, Ali is your brother, then I am also your brother. As thou hast done unto ari, thou hast done unto me.

I said, "Yes."

He smiled, stared at me, and said, "You're funny."

My face turned red all of a sudden, and I hurriedly lowered my head and pretended to drink water.

But my heart was pounding, and my hand holding the water was shaking involuntarily.

He said, "What's wrong with you?"

I disguised it and said: It's okay, a little.

He said, "Take hot water to warm your hands."

Take off your clothes and say, "Put them on."

I said, "It's not cold, it's okay, you can wear it." You wear so little.

He came to me with a smile and said, "I have thick skin and am not afraid of the cold." Put it on.

I smiled and said thank you.

Today he wore a suit, and the straight suit was not dull on his body, and it was still so dazzling. His suit was put on me like that, and the smell of the warm sun invaded my heart like that.

During the meal, he kept helping me with the vegetables and kept saying to eat more. He didn't eat much himself.

I was a mess of emotion.

I thought to myself: this is the person I want.

Maybe people are like this, even if they usually do too much, it is not as good as doing a little bit when you need it, and the impact on the soul is more violent.
