Chapter 176: Where Are You
For many people, when a person with everything they want suddenly appears in their lives, especially when they are not just strangers, her presence often affects their state of mind. After all, everyone will have some little pride in their hearts, and it is normal to have this kind of envy or sadness or jealousy.
But Sakura brings Chen Xiaodi a different feeling, the circle she lives in may be something that Chen Xiaodi will never set foot in, but she doesn't have that feeling of being unapproachable, but people will be willing to take the initiative to chat with her, every time Chen Xiaodi asks her for writing questions, she will also answer them patiently, and she will also teach Chen Xiaodi what she thinks is a good experience.
"You'll also appear in my new book, although there aren't many scenes, but you'll already be a great writer at the end of the story."
"Then it seems that I have to work hard, even if not now, one day in the future, I will have to be worthy of the me in your story."
"Haha, come on."
"But I'm afraid it will take at least a few years, my current collection is miserable, and I haven't been willing to spend the poor manuscript fee last month...... Alas......"
"Come on, keep it up, keep it and you'll get better."
Although I don't often chat with Sakura, I will talk for a long time every time I chat, and it is also from this chat that Chen Xiaodi slowly found that he doesn't care so much about those data, and he can't even remember to come to the writer's backstage to see when he doesn't write.
The days of coding words while preparing for the exam passed day by day, and the frequency of Chen Xiaodi's updates gradually slowed down, but when November approached, the story had already entered the second half, and it slowly reached the closing stage, and she was ready to write the ending while preparing a new story after the exam.
Bai Ye was busy because of the practice of the subject and all kinds of things, and the lack of news from Chen Xiaodi made him feel a little irritable, and only the messages he sent in the chat box had been left since a long time ago, and Chen Xiaodi never replied to his messages, not only did the avatar never light up again, but even the space was closed recently.
On the National Day, he put down everything and rushed home, but as his mother said, the girl's family had moved away, and the house had been rented by the new landlord to a couple who had come from the countryside to work, and they lived there with their two school-going children and an old man.
They didn't even leave them a new address.
Bai Ye couldn't figure out why this was anyway, how could he suddenly seem to avoid an enemy with a deep hatred and never get along?
Bai Ye's face was full of loss, leaning on the edge of the bed and looking out of the window in a daze, and his eyes inadvertently fell on the desk by the window. In the dazzling sunlight, the girl with a ponytail sat at the desk and concentrated on writing, and the young man in the white shirt walked gently to her side with the girl's favorite milk tea.
The two children laughed and disappeared from Bai Ye's sight, and he sighed softly as he looked at the empty back chair and neat desk. The small bedroom was quiet, and the shallow dust on the window edge was gently lifted by his gentle breathing, dissipating in the wind blowing into the bedroom.
The room opposite is also Chen Xiaodi's room, the layout is similar to here, when he used to sit at the table to study, every time he looked up, he would think, is she the same as him behind a few walls?
"Xiaoye, wash your hands and eat."
The door of the room was knocked gently, and Bai Ye opened the door slowly, and Mother Bai frowned slightly, her face full of worry.
"Eat, I'm not hungry."
"You haven't eaten well for the past two days, and your body won't be able to stand it if you go on like this."
"I'm really not hungry, if I'm hungry, I'll cook my own noodles and eat them, don't worry about it."
Bai Ye said and sat back on the edge of the bed, Mother Bai wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Father Bai.
After a while, the Bai family's parents were eating, and the door of the bedroom next to them opened, and Bai Ye walked through the dining room with the key and went straight out of the house.
"Xiaoye, where are you going?"
Mother Bai was blocked behind the door before she finished speaking, and Father Bai sighed softly and unhurriedly put vegetables into Mother Bai's bowl and himself.
"Let him go, and let him be quiet."
"It's been like this every day since I came back, and it's really hard for him, so hard for that kid."
After a short silence, Mother Bai looked at Father Bai, and after thinking about it, she still asked: "Old Bai, do you want to ......?"
Before the next words could be spoken, I saw Daddy Bai shake his head and continue to bury his head in eating.
"Alas......"
The sky in the small town was overcast, and the white leaves walked aimlessly along the streets under the shade of the trees, and in the past few days he had traveled almost everywhere in the small city, and he knew that she was here, so he had always hoped that maybe in the next second he would find that familiar figure in the crowd of people coming and going. He walked through the snack street she frequented over and over again, and passed by the bubble tea shops and even restaurants she frequented again and again, but still found nothing.
His snow-white shirt dazzled against the gray sky, and his headphones kept looping the songs they sang together during the sophomore singer competition, and he still walked for a long time, until the sky began to rain, and until night gradually fell.
Her hair and shirt were wet from the rain, and the evening breeze was bitterly chilly, and Bai Ye stopped in front of a bubble tea shop and asked for a cup of her favorite milk tea in her hand, which was very warm. Turning to the street, she also frequented the small shop around the corner, and ordered two snacks at random to pass the dinner.
ordered what Chen Xiaodi liked as usual, the proprietress saw that he was drenched, handed him a towel to take shelter from the rain before leaving, Bai Ye smiled and thanked him, and left unhurriedly with the things in the bag. The proprietress of the small shop said that Chen Xiaodi often came to buy food, but she has been coming less recently, and it has been almost half a month since she last came.
You're here, but where are you?
Just about to sit down and rest, the girl with a ponytail came to the store, still ordering the things she usually bought, and looking in the direction pointed by the proprietress, Chen Xiaodi saw the white figure who happened to walk around the corner. She smiled and nodded, sitting at the table by the door, fiddling with her phone, patiently waiting for her purchases to come out.
"The rain is getting heavier and heavier, where the hell has this kid gone, why hasn't he come back!"
"Then let's go pick him up."
Mother Bai turned her head and saw that Father Bai took his coat and car keys and was about to go out, although she was puzzled, she quickly changed her shoes, took an umbrella and went downstairs with Father Bai.
