I kissed him, withdrew my hand, stroked his face, and coaxed softly, "I'm not leaving, um." x”

"Hmph, you're a liar, I'm not going to believe you in my life."

My nose was sore, and tears overflowed, he was right, I was a liar, I shouldn't have lied to him like that, even if I had doubts at the beginning, maybe we wouldn't be like this now.

"The liar said that he would always wait for me in the same place, but he disappeared." His chest heaved and he murmured a little resentment.

I didn't say a word, I just buried my head deep in the socket of his neck.

"It hurts, it hurts, I feel bad," he muttered again, as if to say that his heart hurts, and as if he was uncomfortable drinking.

I tried to pull out of his arms, his hands and legs wrapped tighter.

"I'll pour you some water to drink, okay?"

"Not good," he replied categorically, as if awake and in an imperious tone, and pressed my head back to his neck.

I sighed softly and could only let him go.

He leaned down against my forehead, his breathing still a little heavy, and his chest rose and fell with each breath and breath.

He didn't say anything for a while, I think he was asleep.

He suddenly screamed softly again, the title "Lengleng" made my heart freeze, he hadn't called me that for a long time.

I wrapped my arms around him and stroked his back, "Hmm. ”

He was silent again.

Zou Zichen fell asleep, and I didn't feel sleepy, lying in his arms, thinking that he didn't know how he got over with Ouyang Xue in the past two years, and who was the woman I saw in the hospital?

I don't think it matters, when he wakes up tomorrow, he will definitely tell him about the previous misunderstanding, my heart has been waiting in the same place, never gone far, let alone changed.

I thought about it all night, and it wasn't until the window was lit up that I felt a little sleepy. I wrapped my arms around his waist, pressed as close to him as I could, and closed my eyes.

But when I woke up, he was gone. I panicked and ran to the bathroom to take a look, and there was no sign of washing.

I didn't want to be like that day anymore, so I took my phone and called him, and the phone rang three times, but someone picked it up.

"Hello." But a woman's soft voice.

I was a little stunned for a while, took down my phone and glanced at it, I didn't make a mistake, and then put it back to my ear, "Is Mr. Zou here?" "I try to keep my voice as businesslike as possible.

"Oh, Zichen is taking a bath, I can help you tell you if you have something"

The woman's tone was soft and kind. But I hung up the phone before she could finish speaking, and sat down weakly, feeling like I was about to collapse.

For a long time, I didn't move. Until there was a knock on the door.

It was Lu Zhengnan, who said that I couldn't get through on the phone all the time, and I didn't go to Hengyuan, so I was a little worried about running back. When I opened the door, he saw that I was looking very bad, and thought that I had a cold and a heavy feeling. I said no, but I overslept because I slept too late last night and my phone was muted again. He told me to wash up first and he went to buy me breakfast.

After I finished washing, Lu Zhengnan packed porridge for me at the hotel. Seeing that I was still very unenergetic, he asked me if I had something on my mind.

I didn't answer him directly, but asked him when the drawings would be finalized, and he said it would be about a week. I told him that I don't want to go to Hengyuan anymore, anyway, whether there is or not I will not affect the progress of the drawings, and I can also sort out that information in the hotel, I don't want to meet Zou Zichen anymore.

Lu Zhengnan looked at me fixedly, as if he saw the clue, he didn't ask more, just said, I don't want to go, so I don't have to go.

I said that when the information was finished, I would go back to Rongcheng. He said yes.

For three days in a row, I stayed in the hotel sorting out the materials, and I didn't even take a step out of the door, trying to keep myself busy and not having time to think about other things.

Zou Zichen didn't call me back, and disappeared like last time.

On the fourth day, I sent the sorted information to Lu Zhengnan, and after reading it, he said that there was no problem, and I booked a ticket back to Rongcheng. I was in a hurry, Lu Zhengnan said to drive me to the airport, but I didn't let him send it because I thought it was too troublesome.

When I returned to Rongcheng, it was more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost five o'clock when I arrived at the old villa. The flowers and plants in the courtyard are well taken care of, and a few chrysanthemums on the side are in full bloom, and there is a faint fragrance of chrysanthemums in the air.

Before I could enter the door, I shouted, "Mom Zhang, Mom Zhang, I'm back." ”

I only heard a crackle inside, and as the door opened from the inside, Zhang's mother ran out, her old eyes narrowed, and she laughed, "Tong Tong, you're back." ”

I threw down my luggage and stepped forward to hug her, "Mom Zhang, I miss you to death." ”

"You girl, how can you not come back for so long." She gestured and spanked me.

I let go of her with a smile, looked at it seriously, and saw that she had half of her silver hair, and I couldn't help but feel distressed, I guess I have missed me a lot in the past two years.

Her old eyes were moist, she wiped her face, and crossed me to pick up my luggage, and I hurriedly took her hand, "I'll come, the luggage is heavy." ”

She smiled and took me by the hand and went inside.

Everything at home is still the same as before, and Zhang's mother is spotless.

In the evening, she made me several dishes that I loved to eat when I was a child, and after eating, she pulled me to talk about a lot of things, saying that Lao Zhang had become a grandfather in the past two years, Wu Yue's eldest son was admitted to a prestigious school, and whoever in the family next door got married and gave birth to a big fat boy.

Finally, he cautiously asked me, do you want to leave?

I've been thinking about this question since the other day, but it still hasn't worked, so I can only tell her to see how the work is going.

Mother Zhang looked at me and stopped talking, I took her hand and said with a smile: "I'm doing well, you don't have to worry about me."

She sighed, glanced at me, and said regretfully: "That Mr. Zou is really good, he has come to accompany me for the Spring Festival in the past two years."

I was shocked when I heard it, what did Zou Zichen do in the old villa?

"He's been here for two years?" I asked, surprised.

"Yes, come for the Spring Festival, and come when the loquat is ripe. Since that year, he has learned how to wrap it, and all the loquat in the past two years was given to him when he came to the Spring Festival. When Zhang's mother said this, she had an unconscious smile on her face, as if she was talking about her own son.

I was stunned.

"Tong Tong," she patted my hand gently, "do you still have Mr. Zou?" ”

I didn't respond, she sighed again and said, "Every time he came in the past two years, he stayed in your bedroom, and he cleaned up himself when he left." After a pause, "I can see that he misses you very much, every time he comes back and asks me if you have a phone call back, or if you know where you are, alas, I can't bear to tell him that I don't know, but you girl is really, why don't you tell me about your whereabouts after going out for so long, let me wait for this old woman day by day." ”

"Mom Zhang, I'm sorry." I put my arm around her and rested my head on her shoulder, "I've been to a lot of places in the past two years, and I haven't fixed it, so I can't tell you." ”

"Then does Mr. Zou know about your return?" Zhang's mother asked again.

"Well, I've met him in Beijing."

"Oh, that's good."

After chatting for a while, Zhang's mother was already sleepy, the old people were like this, and I was a little tired, so I asked her to rest early, and I also went back to the bedroom.

In the bedroom, it is exactly the same as when I left, even the placement of things has not changed, and it is also very clean, as if I am ready to return to live with the owner.

I put my luggage aside, lay on my back, thinking about what Zhang's mother had just said, and the spark that had been extinguished in my heart seemed to ignite again. Soon I was gloomy again, remembering the phone call, and his inexplicable wonder, I couldn't be sure what kind of attitude he was in with me now, venting his hatred or revenge?

The next day, Zhang's mother knocked on the door and asked me to get up for breakfast.

Although I slept late last night, I slept until dawn, and it was rare to have a good night's sleep, and I still slept comfortably at home.

After breakfast, Zhang's mother went to buy vegetables, I went to the back mountain, I haven't seen the loquat tree for more than two years, the stem is a little thicker, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, but the growth is getting better and better.

I sat under the tree for a while, and I couldn't help but think of the picture of hugging and kissing with Zou Zichen here that year, as if it was just yesterday, and it seemed a long time ago.

Everything is impermanent, and I never imagined that so many things would happen at that moment.

Back at the villa, Zhang's mother came back from buying vegetables early and was busy in the kitchen. I walked into the courtyard, looked at the new flowers and plants in the corner of the courtyard, lifted the watering pot on the side, poured the pot of water, and watered the flowers and plants.
