"Xiaoyu, ask Chen Ye to come to dinner together."

At this time, Lu's mother shouted outside.

Lu Xiaoyu responded, and immediately turned his head to look at Chen Ye, but found that he was staring closely at the award certificate he had placed on the bookshelf, and his face showed a very complicated and dignified look, as if he was surprised, hesitated, and a little incredulous.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Xiaoyu said softly: "Is there something wrong?" ”

“……”

After another round of silence, Chen Ye tried very hard to look away, but he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and said in a somewhat difficult voice: "No, nothing." ”

Lu Xiaoyu was puzzled, and also looked up at his awards and trophies, and said, "Do you think the contrast between my original name and my current name is too great?" ”

Chen Ye took a deep breath, looked sideways at her side face, stopped talking a few more times, and finally reluctantly reluctantly reactivated his thoughts, and said, "It's a little ...... But it doesn't matter, it's just a name, it's just a code name for people, and the key is that you are still you. ”

Lu Xiaoyu stared at the awards and trophies that recorded his growing years, and after half a ring, he whispered: "That's right, the name is a code name, no matter what my original name is, what name I change to now, I am still me, the most important thing is that I am as my mother expected, safe and easy to grow up to now, although I will be sick and uncomfortable from time to time, but there is always no danger." ”

After a pause, she also looked sideways at Chen Ye's side face, with a deep meaning hidden in her eyes, and smiled shallowly: "That time in the classroom fire, I thought I was going to survive, and the first thing I thought of at that time was my mother, I was afraid of ...... I can't imagine how sad and desperate my mother would be without me, how would she live alone...... But fortunately, with you, you didn't leave me, so that I can continue to accompany my mother, thank you, I will always remember how good you were to me at that time. ”

At that moment, Lu Xiaoyu's cheeks became more and more flushed.

Only she knew how hot her face was, how fast her heart was beating, and how panting her breath was.

But she still mustered up the courage, no matter how hard her eyelashes fluttered, and still tried to stare at the boy who was determined to live and die with her, while brewing some words that were important to both of them.

Chen Ye was in a slight trance, and he caught shyness and dependence, as well as a trace of expectation, from Lu Xiaoyu's warm and quiet expression.

However, in order not to let Lu Xiaoyu see the chaotic thoughts in his heart at the moment, he hurriedly looked away and prevaricated: "I've said it a few times, we are helping each other, and I can't live without you...... If you want to be more serious, you have to thank those kestrels. ”

Seeing that Chen Ye turned his head and refused to look at him, Lu Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and with the tenderness and sweetness on his face gradually withering, his heart also fell to the bottom like a roller coaster, and his lips were tightly pursed, blocking all the throbbing, leaving only indescribable frustration and loss.

"Well, you're right...... Okay, let's go eat first. Lu Xiaoyu barely cheered up, and turned around and walked out as if hesitantly.

"Light rain."

Chen Ye shouted behind her, hesitated, and said, "You had acute pneumonia when you were a child, do you remember how many years ago?" ”

Lu Xiaoyu turned his head and stared at him curiously, but Chen Ye still flashed his gaze and didn't want to look at her.

After a moment of silence, Lu Xiaoyu replied: "Forget it...... It seems like it was ten years ago, what's wrong? ”

"It's fine." Chen Ye smiled in a flash.

After Lu Xiaoyu went out with a pout, Chen Ye deliberately stayed in the room for an extra step, and looked up again at the award certificate at the top of the bookshelf:

"Congratulations to Zhuoyan Xu for winning the championship in the children's category of the Steinway & Sons Piano Competition! July 2007. ”

Then, Chen Ye's gaze moved to the old photo next to the award certificate.

In the photo, the young mother Lu is hugging a little girl and smiling together.

The little girl, he recognized.

He also recognized the name.

It was in another parallel world, the name and photo on the tombstone next to my mother's mausoleum!

Lu Xiaoyu's name was Xu Zhuoyan ten years ago......

How so......

……

The dinner was sumptuous, with fish, shrimp, crab and meat dishes, cooked exquisitely and deliciously, and more importantly, with a sense of family warmth.

But Chen Ye ate absent-mindedly, and in the face of the enthusiasm of Lu Xiaoyu's mother and daughter, he was only perfunctory, and even tried to avoid looking at Lu Xiaoyu.

When he had finished eating, he took his leave and left.

"Shall I send you out?" Lu Xiaoyu stood in the hallway and watched him put on his shoes.

"No, just a few steps, I'll go out and take a taxi." Chen Ye declined.

"That ......" Lu Xiaoyu was uneasy, and in the face of Chen Ye's sudden and inexplicable alienation, he only felt at a loss.

She also planned various after-dinner programs, such as showing Chen Ye her piano skills, going out for a walk together, or going to Wanda to watch a movie...... But now, these are missing the opportunity to put into practice.

Chen Ye was also aware of Lu Xiaoyu's loss, and after putting on his shoes, he tried his best to keep his mind free of distractions, and explained: "My sister is still waiting for me at home, and she was originally going to eat together, but now she can only change it to having supper." ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoyu's mood rebounded slightly, and even when he realized that he had ruined the reunion between Chen Ye and his family, he was a little apologetic, "I shouldn't have invited you here in such a hurry, then you should go back quickly." ”

Seeing that Chen Ye stretched out his hand to open the door, Lu Xiaoyu felt as if he was about to lose something very important, and asked a little weakly and apprehensively, "That...... Will we ever see each other again? ”

"Of course I can, but the career at the same table is over, and it's not indefinite from now on." Chen Ye looked back and smiled, suddenly remembered something, and said: "But I will go to report the day after tomorrow to participate in the training assessment of martial arts students, it is said to be closed, I am afraid that there is no time for the time being, I will contact you when I have time." ”

"Good!" Lu Xiaoyu barely managed to squeeze out some smiles.

However, when the door closed and the people left, her smile disappeared again.

Looking back, Lu's mother stood behind her at some point.

"Mom......"

Lu Xiaoyu let out a low voice, hugged his mother, buried his little head in his mother's shoulder, lowered his eyes and said, "Is he also like those former classmates, and he began to hate me......

Mother Lu gently patted her daughter's back and said softly: "Silly girl, don't think nonsense, you are so good, how can you be annoying." ”

"But he didn't want to talk to me anymore, not even to look at me more...... Moreover, just now he asked me about my illness, and I think he should dislike me. ”

"If he really doesn't make friends with you because of this, it proves that he has no eyes and has a problem with his character, and you can't care about this kind of stupid boy with no conscience."

"His character is fine, I can see it...... It's just that except for the occasional inconsequential, everything else is good. ”

Lu Xiaoyu tried her best to distinguish the stupid boy who had no conscience and often slandered her with small breasts.

At this moment, her mobile phone, which was resting on the coffee table, rang.

Lu Xiaoyu's heart moved, and he quickly left his mother's warm embrace and ran over to pick up his mobile phone.

Sure enough, it was a message from the stupid boy who had no conscience and often slandered her small breasts.

"The food is delicious, thank your mother for me, and when you have a chance next time, can you play the piano for me?"

With a few words, all the gloom of Lu Xiaoyu was dispelled in an instant, and she happily replied 'yes', and said happily: "Mom, he said that he wanted to come to our house for dinner next time, and said that he wanted to hear me play the piano!" ”

Lu's mother smiled bitterly.

A stupid girl, a stupid boy,, why do you suddenly have no status.

Seeing her daughter's nervous and hesitant performance for that boy, Lu's mother suddenly remembered the situation when she was in love when she was young.

It seems that he is so cautious, often just because of the other party's words, a look or an expression, it is enough to decide whether he is sunny or rainy.

But when she thought of her love marriage with a dismal ending, Lu's mother couldn't help but feel a little worried......

……

Out of the community, Chen Ye did not take a taxi, but slowly walked through the city at night.

He needed some space, some time, to calm the turbulent waves in his heart.

bought Liqun cigarettes and lighters at a roadside convenience store, Chen Ye calmed down a little with the help of nicotine, and realized that his abnormal behavior in the Lu family just now was afraid that it would cause misunderstanding, so he sent Lu Xiaoyu a remedial text message, so as not to make her cranky.

But he didn't dare to say these words in person, because he was afraid that when facing Lu Xiaoyu, the thoughts in his mind would be perceived by her.

Lu Xiaoyu, Xu Zhuoyan......

These two names have lingered in his heart for a long time, and they can't get rid of it.

How could he have thought that in another time and space, the girl who died ten years ago would now appear alive in front of his eyes!

The clues are intertwined, like a puzzle that has been completed, and it completely shows an incredible story of fate!

The girl's tombstone and posthumous photo, he witnessed for ten years, and similarly, his tribute and longing for his mother were also witnessed by the girl for ten years.

The two people, who were separated by yin and yang and had no intersection, traveled through time and space, and finally met in this new world.

But this shocking secret is only known to Chen Ye.

And that girl is no longer the ghost of the dead who exists in the mausoleum, she survived the illness ten years ago, and grew up safely, and because of various karmic coincidences, she met and became the same table with him, and experienced the unforgettable encounter together.

Her tranquility, her shyness, her light smile, and her eyes are all so real and vivid.

Chen Ye couldn't tell how he was feeling now.

Surprised, confused, happy, confused, emotional......

Looking up at the stars in the sky, Chen Ye remembered that when he was sad and sad when he was a child, his grandmother once coaxed himself to say that his mother turned into a star in the sky and was watching him.

Now, he wanted to ask his mother, did she arrange this girl to his side?

Forget it, there's no point in asking or not, let's keep this unspeakable secret in the dust forever.

From now on, that girl, to him, is just Lu Xiaoyu.
