After eating the sauerkraut fish, the two walked out of the restaurant.

"Why don't you go first and digest it?" Tong Jiadai suddenly proposed.

Meng Anshi thought this suggestion was good, so the two of them started slowly along the open space outside the Tai Rong shopping mall.

Although it was winter, the temperature was low and there was a little cold wind, but because he had just eaten, Tong Jiadai felt that his whole stomach was warm. She lowered her head and looked at the two narrow figures reflected by the street lamp, and she was a little emotional for a while.

When I was an ignorant teenager, I passed in a hurry, and those times of laughter and scolding, no matter how nostalgic I was, no matter how much I longed for it, I couldn't go back. And when people grow up, their minds are much more complicated and deeper after all, and it is impossible to return to the purity of unmixed thoughts at that time.

"I can't see the stars. ”

Tong Jiadai raised his head when he heard this, and saw Meng Anshi with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky. So she looked up and looked, and the moon hung in the sky like a crooked sickle, surrounded by clouds, and it was a misty and ethereal.

Although Fengchuan is not a city that started with the development of industry, these thousands of lights are brightly lit at the moment, and how can you see the stars with human eyesight.

Tong Jiadai looked at the side face next to him, there was a slight stubble, and the outline showed a bit of maturity, no longer the immaturity in his memory, but the light in his eyes was still like the energetic teenager at the beginning, but it seemed to be a little different.

How long has it been since we looked up at the sky like this?

"You love the stars so much, why don't you stay in Australia, where the sky is full of stars. ”

"What's the point of always looking at the stars alone. ”

Tong Jiadai was stunned, the corner of her eyes was still staring at the side face, so she touched the pair of shining eyes, she looked at Meng Anshi's smiling face, and felt that the smile seemed to start to glow.

But after looking at it for a long time, it is also a little dazzling.

Thinking and thinking in his heart, Tong Jiadai bit his lip and hesitated slightly: "Alone......?" What about Jiao Li?"

The light in the smile seemed to dim all of a sudden.

Meng Anshi still smiled at the corner of his mouth, but the arc was flat: "It's early." ”

"What, when did it happen?" Tong Jiadai didn't expect to receive so many unexpected news one after another on this day," she ...... Didn't she follow you to Australia?"

Jiao Li is Meng Anshi's girlfriend in college, with a slender figure, tender skin, and no shortage of suitors around her, but since she met Meng Anshi in her freshman year, she launched a fierce attack on him, constantly declaring her sovereignty, and finally accepted her as she wished. The two have been together since their sophomore year, although they have been separated and merged several times halfway, but they have finally come over, and even heard the news that Meng Anshi was going to study in Australia, Jiao Li decided to go with him without saying a word. Tong Jiadai felt at the time that this Jiao Li didn't say anything else, but just this courage and courage had won many girls.

"We arrived in Australia not long ago. ”

Meng Anshi's short sentence caused Tong Jiadai to have greater questions.

Soon after arriving in Australia......, it was divided? Isn't it almost four years since they broke up? This is also quite a big deal, why have I never heard my parents mention it? Aren't they the most verbose about these parents' short things at the morning tea party? Otherwise, every time the Meng family and his wife can talk about it, they will really hit her sore spot, and it is not all "promoted" by their own parents.

Tong Jiadai wanted to ask, but Meng Anshi didn't want to say, he wrapped his coat tightly, made a cold appearance, and turned around to urge Tong Jiadai: "Why is it cold again while walking, let's take a walk, get in the car, the heating is still comfortable." ”

As a result, as soon as he got in the car, before Tong Jiadai could ask questions, Meng Anshi took back the initiative and talked about other topics.

"What did you do after graduation?"

As soon as he talked about work, Tong Jiadai was deflated and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, just do a clerical job in a small company." ”

"What civilian?"

"Write copy, send out press releases. ”

"Civil servants?"

"It's not. ”

"State-owned enterprises?"

"Private business. ”

Tong Jiadai didn't want to talk about this topic, and when he wanted to ask Meng An a bunch of questions in his mind, under this series of chasing answers, his anger rose, and he simply exploded, and turned his head and asked, "What's going on with you and Jiao Li?"

Meng Anshi shook his hand on the steering wheel, and suddenly laughed: "You are so interested in my love life. ”

One sentence blocked Tong Jiadai's anger in an instant, and she turned her face away: "I'm not interested." ”

"Then you still ask. Meng Anshi glanced at her.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it. ”

When she said this, Tong Jiadai regretted it a little, and she sounded like she was angry.

It's just someone else's family matter, and there's no need to tell you, so why should she be angry?

What right does she have to be angry?

Tong Jiadai looked at the trees and street lamps that kept jumping outside the car window, looked at the gray sky in the distance, and did not say a word.

A light sigh came from the driver's seat: "Hey, you really haven't changed at all, and I'm not happy to tease you." ”

There was silence in the passenger seat next to him.

Meng Anshi sighed again: "I said, I said, can I?"

The passenger seat was still silent.

Meng Anshi chuckled and began to talk to herself: "Jiao Li accompanied me to Australia, she has a lot of circles, and she quickly made a lot of friends when she went there, and I have been busy with my own affairs, and after a long time, there will be fewer contacts, and the breakup is natural, and it is not anyone's fault." ”

Recalling those days in Australia, the corners of Meng Anshi's mouth showed a little bitterness: "Australia is very beautiful, but it's not interesting to stay alone for a long time." I am alone most of the time, and now that I think about it, the stars in the sky spend the most time with me, and I really miss that starry sky. ”

The car drove on a straight avenue, lined with tall buildings on both sides, but at the end of the road was boundless darkness, and the sickle moon was obscured by the clouds, and it became dim and unrecognizable.

There was silence in the carriage, only the sound of heating blowing from the vents, which made this enclosed space a little cramped.

Until the car drove into the community where Tong's family was located and arrived downstairs of the residential building, Tong Jiadai did not say a word.

"It's here. ”

Meng Anshi stopped the car and looked at the person next to him slightly: "Are you still angry?"

Tong Jiadai unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door and said "goodbye" when he got out of the car, and ran into the building without looking back and closed the door.

Meng Anshi sighed at the closed iron door, restarted the car, and drove out of the community.

In the dim corridor, there was a little dim light left, Tong Jiadai leaned against the iron door, tilted his head and inhaled desperately, trying to drive away the sourness in his nose.

It took a long time to adjust before I finally calmed down.

She took out her mobile phone and looked at her face through the screen: it's okay, it's not red, it should be okay, so she breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the elevator.

As soon as the door was opened, the voice of her mother Ma Shulan came from the living room: "It's so late, where are you going after watching the movie?"

Tong Jiadai secretly exhaled and breathed, and replied: "I didn't go anywhere, I just had a meal." ”

"What did you eat?"

"Sauerkraut fish. ”

"An Shi hasn't come back for so long, so you invited someone to eat a meal of pickled cabbage fish?"

Tong Jiadai's hand shook when he closed the door, and he responded with a glutinous "um".

She didn't dare to say that the money was paid by Meng Anshi in the end, otherwise the Tong family and his wife would definitely have to educate her well.

Before the two members of the Tong family could speak, Tong Jiadai quickly took back the right to speak, and sat down on the sofa as he spoke: "Parents, Meng Anshi won't leave this time? Why haven't I heard you say it." ”

Ma Shulan shook her head and counted: "I said it at the dinner table, and said that I didn't say it, but you didn't listen to it at all." ”

Tong Jiadai hurriedly sloppy eyes: "Oh...... Maybe I missed it. ”

Tong Guobang added on the side: "Lao Meng said that first let An Shi try to be a professor's assistant, see how the situation is, and then see if he should go to class." ”

Tong Jiadai frowned, does Meng Anshi like to teach?

"Anshi, this kid is smart, he is a piece of teaching material, and with Lao Meng arranging it for him, he will definitely not worry about it in the future. When Ma Shulan liked Meng An very much, she never spared no effort to praise him.

Tong Jiadai doesn't think so.

It's hard to go out and wander around, free, do whatever you want, how good, and actually run back to be disciplined by yourself, I really can't think of it.

Tong Jiadai thought of Meng Anshi, who had just been in the car, and said that he was in Australia, and he always looked at the stars alone. Although she didn't look at him, she could read his loneliness through the shadow through the glass.

Just thinking about it, she heard Ma Shulan asking Tong Guobang: "Hey, by the way, is An Shi single now?"

"I don't know, Lao Meng didn't say it. ”

"Didn't he go to Australia before to be with that girl, that girl named Jiao Li?"

"It seems to be. ”

"I chatted with Hongjuan, and I seemed to have talked about this girl, and I don't know if I was still talking. Ma Shulan said, turned her head and asked her daughter, "Do you know?"

Tong Jiadai pouted, shook his head, and pretended to be stupid.

Ma Shulan just couldn't get used to seeing her daughter look like a hanger: "You said that you don't care about eating and chatting with people." Isn't this kid very good? Now that everyone is back, you can get along with him more when you have time. ”

Tong Jiadai felt that the meaning between the lines was not too obvious. Thinking that she has also reached the age of being urged to marry, it is normal for Ma Shulan to worry, but she doesn't have to rush to let her daughter go to the hot face and stick the cold ass, right?

Besides, if you care about others, you may not be happy to be cared for.

This mother is in a hurry to marry her daughter, and the father is careful of his liver. Tong Guobang was not happy when he heard it, he also wanted to let his heart and liver baby stay at home for a few more years, so he argued with Ma Shulan: "Our Jia Dai is not worried about getting married, why should we take the initiative, not to mention that the man should take the initiative in this matter." ”

"She's 27 years old and still doesn't worry about getting married? Now take the initiative, then you can still choose, otherwise in a few years, people won't be able to look down on you if you want to pick. ”

"Aren't there still a few students on Lao Meng's side, there must be something suitable, what's in a hurry. ”

"Don't you have to take the initiative to take a look, really, I thought we were waiting for us to pick it up. ”

As soon as the Tong family and the husband quarreled, it was endless, and Tong Jiadai sat next to him, listening to every sentence in his heart, which was really like sitting on pins and needles.

If she was wrong, she shouldn't have taken the initiative to mention the words "Meng Anshi" and cheated herself.

God, let her go to bed!
