Shen Lingshan accompanied Liao's mother to eat in a relaxed atmosphere, she cooperated well with Xiaohanyu, and the matter of pretending to be his girlfriend was not discovered.

"But ......"

Mother Liao's sudden gaze wandered over Shen Lingshan and Han Yu for a while, and said, "The relationship between the two of you looks so rusty. ”

Shen Lingshan looked at Mother Xiao in surprise, and thought: Oh no, it won't be discovered.

"Why do you think we are unfamiliar?" asked Shen Lingshan with a reluctant smile.

"I see a lot of young couples glued together and very intimate, and you two are a little too distant. Mother Xiao said, looking at the others around her.

Xiao Hanyu and Shen Lingshan looked at it, Mom, it's really. Eighty percent of the guests at this western restaurant are young couples, hugging each other as if no one was around. It's no wonder that my mother would ask such a question.

"That's because ......"

When Shen Lingshan was thinking about how to answer her mother's question, Xiao Hanyu pulled Shen Lingshan into her arms. Shen Lingshan looked at him in surprise, her expression seemed to ask: What are you doing?

Xiao Hanyu gave Shen Lingshan a reassuring expression, and then said to Mother Liao: "That's because your old man is here, I'm not embarrassed, we are usually very close, right?"

Shen Lingshan secretly used her elbow to push against Xiao Hanyu, this action seemed to be a warning. But Xiao Hanyu didn't let go of her, but kept smiling.

Shen Lingshan, who had no choice, could only cooperate with Xiao Hanyu and said to Xiao's mother: "Yes, we are usually very close. Auntie don't worry, I'll take care of him in the future. ”

With Shen Lingshan's assurance, Mother Xiao's mother can be relieved. When chatting with Lin Manshu in the evening, they also talked about Shen Lingshan.

"I heard that Shanshan is your college classmate, you must know her well. Mom asked.

The first time she heard the title "Shanshan", Lin Manshu was still a little confused, and she didn't know who it was.

Xiao Hanyu reminded in a low voice on the side: "Shen Lingshan." ”

"Ah, yes, we're classmates. Lin Manshu replied immediately after reacting.

"Very beautiful and well-behaved. Hanyu is worthy of being my son, and he has a good eye. Mother Xiao smiled with satisfaction.

Lin Manshu smiled and said, "Auntie, you have become so fast, you used to say that I was the most beautiful." ”

"Of course our Manshu is beautiful, but now I don't need me to praise you, I heard Hanyu say that you have someone you like, and your mother-in-law will praise you in the future. Mother Xiao said.

"When did I have someone I liked, why do you always spread rumors. Lin Manshu looked at Xiao Hanyu and asked.

Xiao Hanyu said very calmly: "Mu Baibei, don't you like him?"

"Who told you I liked him? Lin Manshu retorted.

Xiao Hanyu pretended to be surprised and asked, "Don't you like it?" Then I'll tell him. ”

"You ......" Lin Manshu was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say, but deep down in her heart, she didn't want to admit that she didn't like Xiao Mubai.

"Hey, I won't tell him what teases you, so you two can continue to be ambiguous. Xiao Hanyu put down his phone to show his sincerity.

A kind smile leaked from Mother Less's face, she took Lin Manshu's hand and put it on her lap, and said earnestly: "Two people who love each other are in the ambiguous stage, because the relationship is unclear, so they add a little haze and expectation, which is good, but it can't stay in the ambiguous stage for too long." Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will let love fly away, so you have to take advantage of the moment. ”

"yes, I see. Lin Manshu said with a shy smile.

"Also, don't be angry when Auntie says something. Mother Liao's tone turned to a heavy one.

"Say it. ”

After getting Lin Manshu's permission, Xiao's mother said: "Although your parents are at fault in Huijing's matter, it has been eight years, no matter what grievances you have, you should forgive them." Seeing that they are all old, do you want their old age to pass so miserably?"

"Didn't Hui Jing and I have a miserable childhood and adolescence?" Lin Manshu's voice choked when she said this, which made people feel distressed.

She couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart, and she couldn't forgive anyone who played a role in Lin Huijing's death. Whether it is Huang Anyi, the murderer who directly killed Lin Huijing, or the parents who indirectly caused Lin Huijing to commit the crime, or herself who persuaded Lin Huijing to turn himself in, she can't forgive. Forgiveness is the victim's right, but the obedient teenager is gone forever, so none of them can be forgiven.

The boy wrote in his last letter to Lin Manshu: Sister, I suddenly want to go to see the sea recently, if I can get out of prison alive, let's go see the sea together. The sunset by the sea should be beautiful, I have been there in my dreams.

Lin Huijing didn't wait for the day of watching the sea with his sister, so Lin Manshu decided to go on his own and fulfill his last wish. Without telling anyone, Lin Man-sook set off to the beach alone.

Driving down the wide road in the beautiful morning sun, she rolled down the windows and let the wind blow her hair. From her vantage point, she could see the blue sea. The slightly salty smell that lingers on the tip of the nose is the taste of the sea.

Yellow sand, white waves, shells shining in the sun, and water that blends with the sky...... There are no superfluous algae ornaments, no groups of people, Lin Manshu walks barefoot on the beach, feeling the tingling sensation of fine sand touching her skin.

When she was tired of walking on the beach, Lin Manshu randomly found a place to sit and rest. She had been holding a silver necklace in her hand, judging by the style and condition, it should have been some years.

"Happy Birthday!"

Many years ago, Lin Huijing displayed this necklace in front of Lin Manshu's eyes.

"I saved up for a long time to buy this necklace. How's that? pretty. Lin Huijing had a bright smile on his childish face.

"Sister, let's go buy a birthday cake. Lin Huijing said again.

"Why did you buy that?" asked Lin Manshu.

"Because it's your birthday, you must eat cake on your birthday. ”

You must eat cake on your birthday, and it is also because I remembered this sentence that Lin Manshu would buy a cake on a whim when she had a birthday last year, and then she was drunk in a hot pot restaurant in western Sichuan, and was picked up by Xiao Mubai and taken home, and she and Xiao Mubai were constantly implicated.

Lin Manshu, who was immersed in memories, couldn't help but be sad, she looked at the blue sea, her eyes were hazy with tears, she gently stroked the pendant of the necklace with her hand, so is there still Lin Huijing's breath on it?

"It's beautiful, and you'll love it if you come. You yearn for freedom so much, but you spend your last days in prison. You should refuse, when I persuaded you to turn yourself in, you said you don't want to, and begged me to help you escape. ”

"Why are you so sensible, why do you believe me?"

Lin Manshu's voice was a little choked, tears gathered in her eyes, she wanted to hold back, but she heard a "pop" sound, the sound of tears falling.

If there was a chance in life to do it all over again, would Lin Manshu persuade her younger brother to turn himself in, or would she abandon everything such as morality, faith, law, and the world, and flee with him?

She stayed at the beach for a long time, and the sea breeze blew her hair and dried her tears. Listening to the sound of the waves, time passed unconsciously.

At one point, she looked up at the sky and saw that it was already sunset.

The blue sky, the white floating clouds, a corner of the sky looks gray, behind the gray, a red sun slowly sinks, and the light of the setting sun is like a thin red veil, crossing behind the gray sky. The rays of the setting sun cast on the surface of the sea, setting off the waves in red.

As the sun sinks little by little, the red light becomes fainter and fainter, blending with the gray to one side and turning a dark red. When Lin Manshu looked up at the whole sky, she found that the sky above her head was still blue, only the distant part of the sky turned dark red, as if it was two worlds, and it seemed to come from outside the sky.

When Lin Manshu looked back at the dark red sky again, she found that the sunset had completely disappeared, and only the red afterglow proved that it had stayed, proving that the day had come.

At this time, the distant shore was lit up. But even if all those lights add up, it's still not as warm as the sunset. The sea flowed quietly, as usual, and the moonlight sparkled on the water. The shadows of the trees in the distance swayed in the wind, like her mood, swaying left and right.

From day to night, Lim Man-sook spent a day at the beach. At night, the beach was a little cold, and Lin Manshu, who had been blowing the wind for a day, had a headache and decided to go back to her residence. She got up from the beach, and when she turned to go back, she saw Xiao Mubai.

Xiao Mubai stood not far away, looking at Lin Manshu quietly, perhaps because it was too dark at night, his complexion looked a little dull, but he was still handsome.

Lin Manshu had forgotten how long it had been since they had seen each other, and in short, she was still very happy to unexpectedly see the face she had been looking forward to here, so a faint smile appeared on her face again.

Because of the unexpected, the surprise becomes meaningful and more impressive. Just like the current situation, Lin Manshu never thought that Xiao Mubai would appear behind him, but when he appeared, this was an unexpected surprise.

In front of the love between the two, the beach, the sea, the moon white, and the starry sky have all become foils. They have only each other in their eyes, and the rest is superfluous.

The faint smile on your face is the meaning of my arrival. In front of your smile, the moonlight also looks dim. So I worked tirelessly to come to you, put aside all my worries, and embrace you.

Xiao Mubai moved above and hugged Lin Manshu. There is no need for language explanations, and there is no need to think too much. At the moment, he just wanted to be with her, to feel her real breathing and heartbeat, and the touch of her hair brushing behind his ears.

The waves are like snow, swept to the shore with the wind, wave after wave, never stopping, like a beautiful and majestic music, playing freely in the vast world.
