Another two days passed, my father, mother, aunt, and uncle never left, and I would take time to accompany them every night, but to my surprise, they seemed to have discussed and never mentioned the matter of me and Chen Qingyi, which made me even more confused and uneasy, obviously this is not their style.

That afternoon, my aunt came to my office at "Seaview Coffee" and said that she had something to talk to me about, so I asked the desk to deliver two cups of coffee, and then waited for her to follow.

The little aunt took a sip of coffee, looked at me with a hairy look and said, "You kid don't really plan to let your father and mother go back to the town, do you?" ”

"I respect their wishes in this matter, they are willing to be in Jinan, of course I will buy them a house, but they have lived in the small city for most of their lives, and they will not leave easily."

"You stinky boy, you are a dead brain, who said that if you helped them buy a house in Jinan, you must live in Jinan permanently? It's just one more living option, and you don't have to stay in a hotel every time you come, right? ”

I thought for a moment and said, "It's the same..... I've done this in the past few days, and I actually hope that they can stay with me, they have worked hard all their lives, and it's time for me to repay them. ”

"By the way, this is like what a son says." My little aunt finally smiled at me and said.

.......

I was still in the office, my little aunt opened the curtain and looked out, the sky was already dark, she said to me: "Yixi, don't work overtime tonight, come and eat with us." ”

"Well, wait a minute, I'll clean up."

After a while, my little aunt and I came downstairs, I went to the underground parking lot to drive, and when I came out, I was surprised to find that my little aunt was standing with Zuo Lan, in fact, in recent days, Zuo Lan has no longer had any intersection with me, and she has not even appeared when the "Sea View Coffee" opened.

I stopped the car again and came to Zuo Lan and my aunt, who grabbed me and said in surprise: "Yixi, I didn't dare to admit it at first, I watched it several times before I was sure that it was Zuo Lan, but I didn't expect her to be in Jinan." ”

"Yes, she has been living in Jinan for several years." I looked at Zuo Lan and said with a smile.

The little aunt nodded, looked at the Pippi in Zuo Lan's hand and asked, "Is this your son?" ”

Zuo Lan nodded, and said to Pippi, who was playing with the toy in his hand, "Pippi, call grandma......"

Pippi glanced at the little aunt and said, "No, there is no such a young grandmother!" After saying that, he played with the toy in his hand again.

Zuo Lan smiled at the little aunt a little apologetically, but the little aunt didn't care, took out a thousand yuan from her wallet and handed it to Zuo Lan and said, "This little thing is really funny, take it and buy him something to eat." ”

Zuo Lan hurriedly said, "No, little aunt!"

"This is the rule, how can there be an elder who doesn't give a meeting gift when he sees a child for the first time, and there are two generations older than me, and I can't help but give it." The little aunt said and stuffed the money into Zuo Lan's hand, Zuo Lan looked at me, I nodded at her and motioned for her to accept it.

When the little aunt saw Zuo Lan accept the money, she finally smiled and said to her: "Let me hug this little clever ghost, I like him very much at first sight!" ”

Zuo Lan discussed with Pippi, who was playing by himself: "Pippi, let grandma hold you for a while, okay, mom's hands are tired!" ”

Pippi finally glanced at the little aunt, and opened her arms to let the little aunt hug him, and the little aunt took it with a smile, hugged and kissed, and liked it so much, which made me wonder how she would spoil me if I had a son one day!

......

On the way, I was concentrating on driving the car, but my little aunt patted my leg and said dissatisfiedly: "Yixi, look at the fact that after Zuo Lan broke up with you, the children are so old, and you don't even have a relationship until now, can't you let us elders save worry?" ”

I didn't say anything, I still concentrated on driving the car, I can't say anything about this matter, I can only say that the angle of consideration is different!

The little aunt didn't give up: "You quickly figure out your life's events, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are still waiting to hold their grandson......." and said: "I don't know why, when I saw the little thing in Zuo Lan's house, I felt kind!" ”

"Kind?" I muttered something inexplicably, but I was lost in the shadows of the trees and the flickering lights outside the car window.....

.......

Two more days passed, and I was informed that the prince had returned to China, and I put down all my work and rushed to Nantong to meet with him.

It was a cold and bleak night, and I was waiting for the prince in a thick gray trench coat and smoking cigarette after cigarette at the door of the "Sea View Coffee" in the Nantong store.

Lin Xi came to my side at some point, she handed me a cup of hot coffee and whispered to me, "It's cold outside, go in and wait." ”

"We'll make an appointment at eight o'clock, and he'll be here in a minute." I looked at my watch, then looked ahead again.

The light of the car pierced the light of the street lamp and shone on me, and I squinted and looked around, and finally saw that it was the prince's A4.

He parked the car, and I walked briskly over to him, and after half a year, I finally met the prince again.

His face was full of loss, his thick beard made him lose the sunshine he once had, and he only smiled bitterly when he saw me.

After staring at each other for a long time in silence, the prince and I took out the cigarettes that we were going to hand each other at almost the same time, but in embarrassment, we did not exchange them, but just lit them separately.

The prince glanced at Lin Xi beside me, Lin Xi subconsciously took a step back behind me, their meeting was a kind of embarrassment with anger, to this day I don't know if the prince can let go of Lin Xi's words that day! Maybe there was no day when he was married to Shen Man, or maybe with Shen Man by his side, he wouldn't have suffered such a setback at all....... But life is like this, let each of us wait, each of us has its own illusions, and each of us is disillusioned...... And resentment never stops from shattering!

"Let's go in and talk......," I said, patting the prince on the shoulder.

After all, the prince didn't look at Lin Xi again, and walked towards the coffee shop alone with a desolate back facing the cold wind.

......

In the smoking area of the coffee shop, near the window, the prince and I sat opposite each other, each lit a cigarette, but no one spoke, I know that after the baptism of the years, we have all become accustomed to being silent, and the laughter and scolding that used to be have faded away.......

I flicked the cigarette ash on my fingertips, and finally said to the prince: "Your company's financial crisis this time, I have asked Anqi to intervene, with the financial resources of their group, there should be no problem." ”

The prince simply replied, "Thank you." He took another heavy puff of his cigarette.

After a moment, we didn't even talk as much as we smoked, as if there was an inbreakable bond between us, and this bondage had quietly locked us up before the prince left for Singapore.

The prince stared blankly out of the window, and I lit a cigarette in silence, and the fog that gradually formed clinged to the glass window, blurring the world outside the window.

The prince wiped out a limited amount of clarity on the glass window with his hand, but his expression suddenly became surprised and happy: "Senior sister...... It's Senior Sister! After speaking, he ran to the entrance of the building.

I looked out through the small piece of clarity that had been rubbed out, but I didn't see Shen Man's shadow at all.
