Chapter 287: A Beginning
Unexpectedly, An Yu just said "um", which made Ai Mo's long-term belly draft useless.
In fact, for the result this time, Anjun does not have much expectations, after all, it is only the first time Ai Mo has tried, as long as he does not give up, there will always be a chance of success, and the first failure is more normal.
"However, I called her later and made an appointment to talk again tomorrow, and her tone seemed to be very similar to selling the store quickly, so there shouldn't be any problems." Ai Mo said this, in fact, he wanted to reassure An Ju, but An Ju had a misunderstanding this time.
"I'll send you tomorrow, just wait outside the café, you can call me if you have something, don't worry, it won't disturb you to challenge yourself." An Ju said that she also made up her mind this time to give Ai Mo full freedom, but she still has to rely on it.
"Huh? No, not anymore. ”
"Huh?"
"I," Ai Mo was a little embarrassed, and her ears slowly turned red, "You're going to be very busy these days, and it will take a lot of time to accompany me." ”
Ai Mo would never lie to An Cheng, of course, even if he did, he could easily see it with An Chong's eyesight, not to mention that his ability to lie was too poor.
"Got an appointment?" An Ju suddenly thought of a possibility, "Qiming? ”
Ai Mo pursed her lips and nodded.
"Yes, then I won't go, waiting for your good news!" An Ju laughed, Ai Mo really didn't understand what Anju's "good" meant, but she didn't ask anything more, which made her breathe a little relieved.
~~~~~~~~~~
"I'm sorry, I'm late again!" Ai Mo rushed to discharge the materials and itinerary that An Yu needed today early in the morning before asking for leave to go out, and just out of the gate of Lingfeng, he saw the car from yesterday and hurriedly ran over.
"Take a breath." Mu Qiming said that he watched Ai Mo run all the way.
"It's okay, I run a lot." Ai Mo smiled, her face became much more rosy than usual because of running, and she smiled a little more energetically.
"Hmm." Mu Qiming answered and opened the car door for Aimo.
"There's something I didn't tell you." Ai Mo sat in the passenger seat and looked out the car window at the street scene, the scene in front of her became more and more familiar, and even the buildings on the street were telling Ai Mo that they were closer to the old town and closer to the café.
"Curious about what's going on?" Ai Mo asked.
"Since you say that, you're going to tell me."
"No wonder you say that your personality is too calm, calm and a little boring, sometimes a little curious, it will be more human." Ai Mo leaned against the car window and turned his head to look at Mu Qiming.
The corners of Mu Qiming's mouth curled slightly, and it seemed that today's Ai Mo was much more cheerful than yesterday.
"Actually, it's nothing special." Ai Mo seems to be speaking easily, but the thumb rubbing on his left wrist tells those who see it how nervous its owner is at the moment.
"The owner of this shop, Aunt Zhao, is my mother's best friend, and the two have a good relationship, although the store has been sold to her, but my mother is still like the owner here, occasionally helping her take care of the business, I also often come here to play, although I haven't been here since elementary school, but there are many good memories here."
"But you're still resisting."
"Hmm." Ai Mo nodded, "I don't know if it's against this place, or against the people who have appeared in this place, for so many years, I don't even dare to look at that store again, those good memories are always covered by a lot of haze, even if I want to get back the happiness of the past, it's difficult, but I think of more painful memories." ”
"Relieved now?" Mu Qiming asked, although he didn't know what kind of ideological struggle Ai Mo had gone through, at least the past of that café was no longer difficult to talk about.
Momo shook her head.
"I can't say it, but yesterday I looked at the starry sky that I painted for me all over the room, and suddenly felt that in fact, I am very happy now, and what I want to do is to make myself happier and happier, so that I won't always have to worry about me. Yesterday, when I went back to the office, although I didn't see it, I knew that she must be waiting for me when she was done, just to see if I was okay and should not cope. When I told her that I didn't see my boss yesterday, she still wanted to put down her work and go with me! ”
Ai Mo remembered Anyu's concern for herself, and her heart was extremely warm, as if she had charged herself, which made her suddenly have some courage.
"Why didn't you tell me this yesterday?"
"I don't know." Ai Mo answered very simply this time, since she decided to let Mu Qiming help, she should tell him some things, but she never mentioned this detail, even when she was temporarily out of control in the café, she also subconsciously avoided it.
"It seems that your heart is stronger than I thought."
"Huh?" When the car was meeting, the horn of the vehicle next to him drowned out Mu Qiming's voice.
"It will take a while to arrive, let's talk about you and Xiaoyu, your circle should have little intersection with her, how did you meet her?" Mu Qiming asked.
This is the first time Mu Qiming has asked Ai Mo a personal question, and Ai Mo secretly thought, wouldn't it be because he just said that he was a little curious, and he really started to be curious, right?
After thinking about it, Ai Mo said: "After entering the society, I understand that I can't meet better people because I am not good enough, and I can't enter a better circle at all. When I rely on my own ability, I will not meet such a good person as you. Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe it was the arrangement of fate, Ju Yu noticed that I was wasting my life in the sanatorium at that time, and gave me hope for rebirth. I followed the trials and clues she left behind to find Ling Feng, and she took me to the Foundation and let me start a new life. ”
Ai Mo spoke slowly, countless images slithering through his mind, and he hadn't remembered it in a long time. She has always avoided reminiscing about the past and only looks to the future. Everything in the past, including before suicide and redemption, Ai Mo did not dare to recall it easily, for fear of being defeated again. But now that I think about it, what I remember the most is the joy of rebirth and the joy of breaking through the difficulties, as if time filtered away the dross for her and left the most memorable.
"Sounds like a good story of transformation." Although Ai Mo said very simply, Mu Qiming listened very carefully, wasting his life, being reborn, and having a new life, if he connected to the scar on her hand, some pieces were put together, and it seemed that he could roughly know how difficult Ai Mo's past was before he met An Zhen. Such a girl can go back to the memories of the past and rush out again, and her courage and strength may not be realized by herself.
Mu Qiming turned on the autopilot mode and looked at Aimo, a little puzzled, some appreciative, a little sour, and a little curious.
"yes, that's good." Ai Mo said softly, looking out the window at the increasingly familiar buildings, happy that he might no longer be afraid of these familiar streets and alleys.
