"Chen Xun, where are you going to take me?" Sitting in the car, Ning Chaoxi had already asked him this question more than once.

And he just stared intently ahead, and said patiently: "You'll know when you go." ”

So mysterious, Ning Chaoxi pursed his lips and turned his head to look out the window, only to find that the surrounding scenery had become familiar, this was ...... They used to be on their way home.

She was surprised, turned her eyes to look at Chen Xun, the faces of the people beside her were not shocked, he noticed Ning Chaoxi's gaze, took the time to turn his head, and the corners of his mouth swept into a shallow smile.

Ning Chaoxi looked at those familiar streets and shops, she hadn't set foot in this place for a long time, and at this time, these scenes flew by in front of her eyes one by one, and she only felt that everything that had happened was like yesterday.

The streets of Qianguan Village used to be narrow, and there were many small stalls and vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the road, but after several years of street control, these mobile vendors were rarely seen on the road, and the roads were unobstructed, and vehicles were allowed to enter, but Chen Xun did not drive the car in, he parked the car on the side of the street, and walked in with Ning Chaoxi.

As if it was the first time to set foot here, Ning Chaoxi felt very novel, looking around, walking a few steps to turn back, and telling him where and where the rectification has been made, and which stores have closed down, the grocery store that she and Ning's father frequented before has also closed down, and has become a life supermarket, the people who were familiar before are no longer there, all of them are some fresh faces, walking on this street, and you can no longer meet people you knew in the past.

Ning Chaoxi looked at the streets and alleys that had changed greatly, and four words flashed in her mind - time has passed, but for her, the past eight years have not been like a century.

Chen Xun took her on the way home, Ning Chaoxi took his hand and stepped over a waterlogged pothole, and asked him, "Chen Xun, is your family still there?" ”

"It's still there, but the shoe shop has been transferred." Chen Xun replied to her.

The shoe shop that their family used to open was surrendered and transferred to others before they left, and in the past eight years, Chen Xun also returned here for the first time, and Ning Chaoxi is generally a little new here, their shop transfer, the same address, the same store, and a shoe store was also opened after the sublease here.

Ning Chaoxi felt fresh, and pulled him in, and the owner of the store saw the guests and immediately got up to greet them: "Just take a look, the shoes we have here are all brand goods." ”

Not only leather shoes are sold here, Ning Chaoxi saw that the shelves on one side were full of sneakers and high heels, and there were sandals and women's boots at the bottom, she picked up a pair of men's leather shoes casually, touched the feel and texture, put down the shoes in her hand in the expectant eyes of the boss, and pulled Chen Xun out of the store.

"His shoes here are so good and inferior that they can't even make a third of what your dad makes." Walking outside, Ning Chaoxi took his hand and said.

"It's all processed in batches by the factory." Chen Xun explained.

"Chen Xun, is your father still making shoes?" Seeing a small pebble lying on the road, Ning Chaoxi couldn't help but stretch out his foot and kick it.

"Well, I rented a shop in Jiangcheng and started my own business."

Ning Chaoxi's heart suddenly rose, kicking the stones under her feet to play, every time she kicked to ensure that the stones would not fly away, hearing this, she smiled and said: "I have a son who is so good at making money, why doesn't he enjoy Qingfu at home." ”

Chen Xun pulled her, paying attention to her not being tripped over stones, he smiled helplessly, he said last time that he was not a child, but now he was playing like a child.

"He has his own insistence."

"Your dad is so stubborn."

Chen Xun didn't know what to think, and laughed softly: "He said that he wanted to save money for his future grandson as pocket money." ”

Ning Chaoxi was stunned, the force under her feet was not well controlled, the small stone was kicked out by her for a long time, she wanted to chase it back, Chen Xun grabbed her in time: "Don't pick it up." ”

They had never mentioned the word of marriage or having children between them, and now that he inadvertently mentioned it, Ning Chaoxi didn't know how to react, so he had to look at him and smiled, hiding his embarrassment: "Your father thinks really long-term." ”

Chen Xun suddenly looked at her seriously: "It's not far away." ”

Ning Chaoxi saw that he had been staring at him, for fear that he would pop up the topic of having a child in the next second, so he hurriedly pulled him away: "Chen Xun, let's go and see your house." ”

The house was bought by Chen's father with half of his savings, he took his family from Jiangcheng to live in this city, and wanted to live here forever, so he used the money he saved to buy this suite cheaply from a family, and the other half of the money was used to open a shoe shop.

They left in a hurry, taking away only clothes and some daily necessities, and there were many things left to move, including the shoes that his father gave him for his birthday every year, and more importantly, the paintings that he had kept in his room for countless nights to complete.

The house and yard in my impression have not changed, but there is a layer of ash on the doorknob, and there is also a scene of withered leaves and decay in front of the courtyard gate, Ning Chaoxi stood in front of their house, looking at the faint red spray paint on the wall and door, the handwriting on it was almost unclear, and the vision was not good in the dark, she tried to identify: "What do you owe ......?"

Chen Xun took out the key to open the door lock, and heard Ning Chaoxi's low voice, he looked sideways, and found that she was staring at the handwriting on the wall, he also saw it when he first came over, what had happened turned out from the depths of his mind, and it was still gray and cold, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to hold her: "Let's go." ”

After many years, she stepped into this small courtyard again, Ning Chaoxi had an indescribable feeling, everything in the past was sealed by time, and now it has resurfaced, and the memories in her mind overlapped, and the patchwork was still a beautiful image, and when she saw the familiar scene, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

The well in the courtyard was still there, and the leaves of the dwarf trees were all dried and shed, and the vine trellis was still wrapped in dead vines, and the clothesline, which had been faded by the sun and rain.

"Chen Xun, now that the housing prices in L City are soaring, it was wise for my uncle to buy this yard and house back then." Ning Chaoxi joked.

Chen Xun smiled but did not speak.

Unscrewed the door with the key, the house that had not been used for many years was full of dust, and the smell of dust and decay was blowing on her face, Chen Xun pulled her back two steps.

Ning Chaoxi coughed twice: "Chen Xun, you did it on purpose, don't find someone to clean it up first." ”

Chen Xun covered his mouth and coughed lightly, he also inhaled some dust, coughing so that his cheeks and neck were flushed, and he was slightly embarrassed when he heard it, he didn't expect that bringing her here today was completely temporary.

"Follow me." Chen Xun coughed lightly and led her into the house.

"Chen Xun, what are you bringing me here for?" Ning Chaoxi asked her questions that she was curious about along the way.

"Take something." Chen Xun said, took her straight to the second floor, and pushed open the room where he had lived before.

His room was still the same as the last time she had been here, and although there was a layer of dust, things were still neatly arranged and orderly.

Chen Xun took out the easel he had used before, and wrapped it with a layer of dusty cloth, he didn't hurry to lift it, turned to look at her, and said, "Morning and evening, Miss Shen told me that you have not been right since you came back from S City. ”

Ning Chaoxi's eyes flashed with a hint of panic, and he hurriedly denied: "No, don't listen to my sister's nonsense." ”

Chen Xun's eyes looked at her fixedly, dark and bright, and he slowly spoke: "But something really wasn't right with you that night in S City." ”

"I ...... No. Ning Chaoxi had a feeling that someone had been caught and appeared, and she flatly denied it.

Chen Xun didn't hold on to this question, he covered his eyes, and suddenly changed the topic: "Day and night, do you want to know why I left eight years ago." ”

The topic jumped a little fast, and she didn't have time to react for a while: "It's not because your dad ......"

She didn't finish speaking, but Chen Xun understood what she meant, and he said, "This is part of the reason. He walked to the window and pushed it open to ventilate, "Tell me what you just saw at the door." ”

At the door?

Ning Chaoxi thought for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Those on the wall...... Scarlet letters? ”

He turned around, and the sky outside the window was deep, and his eyes were as deep as night: "It says that you owe money to pay off your debts." ”

Ning Chaoxi raised his gaze in astonishment: "You ......"

"It's not us, it's my uncle." Thinking of that past, Chen Xun's eyes suddenly sank, "He told the debt collector the address of our house and ran away by himself." My dad was seriously injured because he didn't help my uncle pay off his debts. ”

"The red paint you see outside the door is what they sprayed."

Ning Chaoxi was stunned, she didn't know that these things had happened to Chen Xun's family back then, "Then what will you ......do later?"

Chen Xun's eyes narrowed slightly: "They come to the door every day to make trouble, my mother can't withstand their harassment, and she has a mental breakdown for a while." ”

"That's why you chose to leave?" Ning Chaoxi stepped forward and held his hand hanging by his side, "Chen Xun, why didn't you tell me?" ”

Chen Xun shook his head: "I don't want you to worry. He took her hand back and gently rubbed the back of her hand, "I was being collected for debts, and my father's treatment fees, day and night, I was really penniless during that time." ”

"I have nothing but to leave with my parents, day and night, I'm sorry, I left you here for so many years."

Ning Chaoxi shook her head, she opened her mouth to say something, but found that her throat was choked and she couldn't speak.

"I learned to paint with my teacher, I want to be famous, I want my paintings to sell for money, in addition to treating my father, I also want to come back to see you as soon as possible."

"I didn't have much sublime, and I didn't have much pursuit of art, at first because of interest, and now I say cheesy, to make money." Chen Xun raised his hand to stroke her cheek and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Day and night, I'm honest, I'm not as good as you think." ”

"Chen Xun ......" Ning Chaoxi shouted his name, not knowing what to say, just shaking his head vigorously.

Chen Xun said: "I didn't dare to promise you when I left, I was afraid that there would be too many variables, and if I really didn't have anything, I wouldn't be able to come back to you." ”

"Day and night, I came back because of you, and now I have enough capital for you to live the life you want, it doesn't have to be so hard, I can give you what you want, just fill my guilt for many years, and you can accept it with peace of mind."

"Because that's the only thing I can think of, to make up for leaving you behind for so many years."
