Chapter 274: A Trace of Courage
Chang Geng didn't urge, watching her continue to hesitate to speak.
"My mother used to run a café, and even though it closed down before I was born, my mother would always take me there when I was a kid and tell me what she had left over from the time she ran it. Actually, to be precise, the store is not closely related to the past, but the occasional thought brings up a little memory, so every time I go to work and pass by there, I try not to look at it, but I know that it is there, and I still can't avoid it appearing in my mind. Even if you don't look at it, there will be that shadow in your head, lingering. ”
"Hmm." Dark Night Chang Geng just answered and motioned for her to continue.
"That café is not doing well, I have checked before, there are really a lot of bad reviews, and the boss doesn't seem to plan to do it well, just hired a part-time job, and he doesn't open it often, trying to maintain the business. I thought, if I take it down and run it myself, will it be considered a first step? ”
After Xiao Ai finished speaking, he looked at Chang Geng with some apprehension, as if he was waiting for his verdict.
"Not a bad step."
The evaluation of Chang Geng in the dark night made Xiao Ai breathe a sigh of relief.
"However," Obscure Night Chang Geng continued: "I have to go and see first, whether it can be taken down, whether it can be managed, I still have to talk about it." ”
Xiao Ai nodded in the breeze.
"I, I don't know if I can do it." It's just a moment, the little courage that has just been encouraged is gone, and as soon as these words come out, the momentum that was not strong just now is even more dissipated.
Chang Geng sighed, and with this sigh, Xiao Ai's last bit of courage was gone.
"Don't have this expression," Dark Night Changgeng smiled a little helplessly, and continued: "Your idea is very good, I think Xiao Yu will definitely support it if she knows it, even if you don't do it, telling her about this idea will be a surprise to her." ”
"In this comparison, it does seem to feel less heavy than when I was asked to see my brother." Xiao Ai couldn't help but sigh when he was blowing the wind, but this was sighing at his cowardice, and it was also sighing at the power left over from his childhood memories.
"So I said, if it's a, she will directly help me take the store down, even if I don't take care of it or run it, this store will be left to me forever, and when I take the initiative to accept its existence, at that time, I may accept it because I can't bear to play in the past is deserted."
"Set a goal and then do it, that's really her style, you know her very well." Dark Night Chang Gung Road.
"After all, I was forced out by her back then, it's not that it's not bad, with her, I did take a lot of detours, but I also know that she is always planning for me and worrying about me, one day, I will be tired, I don't want to see the day when she is disappointed with me again. It's just that even if I want to get closer to her and follow her example, I still can't do it. Perhaps, only such a person can be strong enough, because she will not care about the difficulty of the process, as long as she can achieve the desired result. Compared to the Lycea, I was a person who had never had a goal. Speaking of this, Xiao Ai couldn't help but remember that when she first arrived at the Foundation, An Ying asked her to make her own plans, because she couldn't sleep well all night, if it wasn't for An Ying telling her that she could accumulate experience by observing others, I am afraid that she would not be able to stay in the Foundation for a day.
"If you like her and depend on her, you don't have to be her, I don't think that's what she wants, everyone has their own style of doing things, just a little bit of flexibility."
"Hey, that's easier said than done!" Xiao Ai didn't know how many times he sighed for a while.
"Instead of thinking about the long term, it is better to do what you are doing now, and it may be more suitable for you to take one step at a time. Make it your first goal to revisit your hometown. ”
Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment.
"Do you want to take it one step at a time?" Xiao Ai Fufeng is very unfamiliar with this practice, and it is her habit to think about it and worry about it.
"Let's take a look first, if you think it's feasible, take it down, if you want it better, go and take it down yourself, as for how to run it, you can talk about it later. As for Xiao Yu, she is the person you trust the most, and the person you should not hide your thoughts the most. You are used to relying on her, and she is also used to your dependence, even if she knows to let go, sometimes she just subconsciously cares for her, and if she wants to change, tell her that she wants to change. Of course, this is probably not easier than going to the old place and revisiting, but as long as you do it once, you and her will be different in the future. ”
Xiao Ai Fufeng tilted his head thoughtfully and thought, but he didn't see the bitter smile that Chang Geng showed in the dark night, he knew this feeling, although he dared to see that it was not easy for Xiao Ai Fufeng to make a decision, but he also had to push her more, after all, he also understood that the first step was often the easiest and the most difficult.
Gritting his teeth, Xiao Ai nodded solemnly in the breeze, as if he was promising Chang Geng that he would definitely do it, but he was also promising himself more.
"Before you tell Xiao Yu, it's better to go and brush the copy and wait for her to come back, so that you don't think too much about other variables."
Xiao Ai grinned embarrassedly, compared to An Zhiruosu's directness, the soft knife of the dark night Chang Geng seemed to be more oppressive, so that she clung to the little power that had just risen and did not dare to let go.
"Be serious."
"Don't desert."
"You're almost hanging."
"Well, there's progress."
"Go on."
In the process of brushing the copy, Chang Geng looked a little verbose, usually Xiao Ai never needed to command, but this time he was like a novice who didn't know anything, and he was warned from time to time.
Xiao Ai Fufeng really couldn't help but start thinking cranky in his head at the beginning, but later he slowly became focused, and it was obviously a copy of two people entering, but Chang Geng basically didn't interfere, and only helped Xiao Ai Fufeng control the rhythm when he needed it occasionally. Just like in the conversation just now, he has not set the direction for Xiao Ai Fufeng, it seems that all the decisions are made by Xiao Ai Fufeng himself, but the key nodes are indispensable for his supplementation and boost.
~~~~~~~~~~
On the last day of the holiday, Anju came back much earlier than yesterday, and she had already arrived home before dinner time.
"What's wrong? I've been busy for the past two days, leaving you alone at home, but I'm bored? ”
"Oh, no!" Ai Mo came back to her senses and said, slowly stood up, her right hand unconsciously held her left wrist, fortunately she went offline late, and she didn't come out of the copy until Chang Geng had something to do in the dark night. Fortunately, An Ju came back early today, otherwise she might really let her courage slip away again, then she didn't know how to face Mu Qiming.
"Huh? Looks like you have a lot to say to me! Anju changed her clothes before she walked over to Ai Mo and sat down.
