She didn't ask him how he had made his way through the school's blockade. In her heart, he has always been omnipotent. Where he wants to go, there's nothing he can't go. For a long time, there were some legends of one kind and another circulating in the school, and the magical boys and girls seemed to be trying to imagine them in the context of the war. It's just those people who are obsessed with love, she and He Yu don't belong.

In the evening, her classmates came to borrow "food" from her and told her the latest jokes. It was said that two men broke into the curfew and got into a fight with the doorman. One of them is so good that he knocks down a few security guards and disappears in the blink of an eye. The whole school was nervous, and they didn't know where they went, but they couldn't find it. Who knew that later they swaggered to go out from the main entrance, and were caught by the surveillance camera, and the doorman detained people, and they kept clamoring to see the principal.

"And guess what?" The classmate said mysteriously, "When I arrived at the principal's office, the principal personally invited people in." We talked about it for a while. When the police car arrived downstairs, the principal politely sent it out and sent it all the way to the police car. Do you think it's fun? I don't know who to meet, the school is jumping all afternoon......"

Li Yaotang's heart moved.

The classmate left with a big bag of food satisfied. I didn't even ask how these foods fell from the sky.

Li Yaotang was stunned for a while. Thinking to herself, if she did this again, she would rather go home.

It's just that he never came again. It seems that since that day, he has become very busy. Soon, SARS passed. The gloom that hung over the city lifted, and everything was back on track.

In July, Li Yaotang married He Yu.

She can't remember the process of the wedding. Consciousness is somewhat numb and blurred. The wedding was very low-key, there weren't too many people, and it wasn't like many weddings, where a lot of people gathered in a large vertigo space, lively and noisy, which was very much to her liking.

She only remembered holding He Yu's arm, room after room, going in and out, and toasting the guests one by one. They smile all the time. The muscles in her face stiffened, and she was still laughing. The last few tables are all He Yu's hair children. Some were specially rushed back from abroad. Because of the long delay, when they entered, they were already drunk and waiting for the bride and groom to arrive. The atmosphere of the heat wave made Li Yaotang suddenly feel that a fire was burning all over him. It was a sharp gaze, like a freshly sharpened knife, as if cutting gold and jade. The inside story of the marriage between the two families may not be known, but the Li family has had an accident, and it is really known to everyone. Li Yaotang knew that she had to grit her teeth and persevere, there was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of her, and she had to break through. She involuntarily clenched He Yu's arm.

Until now that she thinks about it, she is a little scared. It's like you've passed a level. In addition to being the "daughter of the Li family", she is really unknown. And what is the encounter, it is too famous. Too many people are staring wide-eyed to see what kind of woman he will marry.

None of those people would let go of this opportunity, and they all waited for the two of them to toast and then return the salute. He Yu had no choice but to drink glass after glass, drinking his own and drinking for her. He Yu's alcohol consumption is good, but she is different. So much so that later, she only remembered that she was in the car held by He Yu, and then the future seemed to have been erased from her life, and she didn't remember it at all. When I woke up the next day, I was in the fiery bedroom, and there was a sleeping man beside me.

Never woke up like this. She only felt her cold hair stand on end.

He hadn't woken up yet. I slept very deeply. She slowly relaxed. Looking at him quietly at the side—his curly hair, which formed a beautiful little curl behind his ear, looked very playful—and had never had a chance to look at him so closely.

So, just like that, it's going to take a lifetime?

……

Li Yaotang suddenly sighed.

They have also had such a moment of tenderness. He Yu looked into the upper room through the glass window and saw Li Yaotang and An Zhijia studying a deck of cards with strange suits head-to-head. Fu Gan smiled and sat on the side, with his dog.

He Yu's heart moved.

Kuqi suddenly said "woo" in his direction, and Fu Gan first glanced at Kuqi, and then raised his head. He Yu knocked on the glass window and pushed the door in.

"Coming back?" Fu Gan greeted him first, and the soft smile on his face just now was suppressed.

An Zhijia and Li Yaotang held the cards in their hands and did not put them down. An Zhijia looked at him with a smile and touched Li Yaotang with his arm.

"Your husband is so handsome, he killed me."

Li Yaotang smiled, raised her eyes to look at He Yu, she didn't think there was anything special, her clothes had a few more pleats than when she went out in the morning, and then she said to He Yu: "Dad can't come back for dinner tonight, so I'm sorry to tell you." ”

"Where is it?" He Yu sat down with a smile. As soon as he sat down, Kuqi suddenly stood up and came over to sniff He Yu's trouser legs. He Yu looked at it vigilantly, "......"

"Cool Strange." Fu Gan shouted, "Come here, sit down." ”

Kuqi looked back at Fu Gan and seemed very reluctant, but he still turned around and returned to Fu Gan's feet.

Li Yaotang stretched out his hand and stroked Kuqi's head and said, "Kuqi is good." ”

An Zhijia laughed and said to He Yu: "Kuqi doesn't seem to like you very much." ”

He Yu looked at Kuqi's brown eyes staring at him, smiled, and asked, "What are you playing?" ”

"Flower cards." Fu Gan said, looking at the two girls and laughing, "The flower cards played by Koreans, I don't know how the two of them got this deck of cards, I've been playing all afternoon." ”

An Zhijia smiled and said, "Do you want to join?" It's much more fun than mahjong. ”

Li Yaotang had a handful of cards in his hand, said to An Zhijia with a smile, and said with a smile: "You don't have to bring anything to play mahjong." ”

"Huh?" He Yu raised his eyebrows.

"Sassa said, He Yu is the best embarrassed to win people's money."

He Yu pouted, "I'm also embarrassed to lose other people's money." ”

An Zhijia blinked and said with a smile: "I heard that you business bigwigs are playing a lot. ”

He Yu listened to a serious answer, "I try not to play with the big guy as much as possible." ”

"Huh?"

"I'm still a little brother." He Yu lowered his head and looked at the cards on the table. It's really a "flower" card, and each card has a flower pattern on it.

An Zhijia snorted and looked at Li Yaotang with a smile, "Then you are qualified to say that sentence - my wife is a big guy." ”

"In our family, she is indeed a big guy."

Li Yaotang looked at him. He Yu noticed her gaze, turned his face, and smiled at her.

An Zhijia touched Fu Gan, "Do we want to show them the flesh and numbness?" ”

Fu Gan smiled softly and touched Kuqi's head. Then looked at Li Yaotang.

Li Yaotang blushed unconsciously.

Dinner was very lively. There is an An Zhijia who is very good at making an atmosphere, and he actually mobilized everyone's emotions.

During the banquet, Shen Peiyi was obviously in a very good mood, and kept talking about the wedding of Fu Gan and An Zhijia. Banquets, Guests...... Talk until the bride's bouquet is left with whom.

Li Yaotang thought a little strangely, Shen Peiyi had a lot of words tonight.

Thinking about it makes my stomach feel a little upset. Looking at the table of dishes, I can't eat.

"Ouch, when your wedding is over, I need to get some rest." Shen Peiyi smiled, "If you want to say it, it's actually not hard, but I can't sleep well these days, and I'm thinking about this and that...... I'll tell you a joke, this sleep is not solid, always dreaming, last night I also dreamed that Fu Gan held a little child, sitting in the yard under the grape trellis swing, I told Tang Tang's father, he said that this dream is done, but also too anxious! If you want to dream, you should first dream of Xiao Tie holding a child......"

He Yu laughed "hehe" and said, "What Dad said is true." ”

Shen Peiyi smiled: "Hey, don't blame me for talking a lot, you're all old." ”

An Zhijia blushed after hearing this, and secretly glanced at Fu Gan sitting next to him.

Fu Gan frowned and called "Mom", while Shen Peiyi smiled: "Come on, don't say it." It's good that you know what to expect. ”

Fu Gan looked at Li Yaotang, who was silently bowing his head and drinking soup. An Zhijia served him vegetables, and he hurriedly thanked her, his eyes still stopped at Li Yaotang.

Li Yaotang finished drinking a bowl and filled another bowl. The warm soup slid down her throat and into her stomach, ironing her somewhat sour stomach.

When she was serving the third bowl, He Yu said in her ear: "Eat something else, a table of dishes is your favorite food." ”

A table of dishes, all of which she loves to eat? She didn't even notice. Just as she didn't notice it at all, in fact, everyone here tonight was talking about the wedding, and their eyes were on her......

Before leaving, Li Yaotang glanced at the grape trellis in the yard. At this point, the grape trellis is empty. A few old vines, wrapped around the shelves, are bare, showing the gloom and loneliness that is characteristic of this season. Originally, there were swings there. In winter, you can sit and bask in the sun, and in summer, you can sit and cool off...... Or maybe you just want to sit on it and kill a little bit of time. At that time, there was a pair of warm hands that swinged for her.

It's gone, it's really all gone.

Li Yaotang lowered his head and followed behind He Yu. Until she went out and got into the car, her eyes were not focused on anyone.

He Yu politely asked An Zhijia if he wanted to drop her by in the end. Before An Zhijia could respond, Shen Peiyi said that Jiajia had been living at home for the past few days and would not leave. He Yu smiled and got into the car.

He Yu parked the car in front of his house. Li Yaotang glanced out of the car window. The light was on in the living room on the first floor, and she could see the huge sofa through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the glass lamp hanging high on the lamppost in front of the door illuminated the tree in the front garden.

"It's home." He said.

It's home.

Li Yaotang took a deep breath. Yes. It's home. Finally...... Back to his nest.

He Yu got out of the car first.

Aunt Zhao came and opened the door.

While Li Yaotang was talking to Aunt Zhao, He Yu had already gone upstairs.

Aunt Zhao looked at the time and asked Li Yaotang if he wanted to eat supper?

Li Yaotang felt that his stomach was empty. Thinking about it carefully, at dinner, she actually only cared about drinking soup and didn't eat much. But she shook her head and said no, I'm so tired today, I'll go to sleep after washing.

She said goodnight to Aunt Zhao and went upstairs with her handbag and coat.

He Yu had the light in the room on the second floor, and the door was half open. Looking over from the staircase, I couldn't see anything, but I could hear his voice. Li Yaotang heard him set the phone to speakerphone, and she could distinguish Lao Han's voice and another male voice...... He didn't know what he was talking about, and his tone was calm......

Li Yaotang stopped.

At this moment, He Yu stretched out his hand to close the door, he glanced outside, and saw Li Yaotang. At that moment, he was about to speak, but she had already turned.

Li Yaotang turned around and walked upstairs as if he had escaped. The footsteps are hurrying, and the heartbeat is also urgent. Until I went into my room and turned on the light. The faint yellow light shrouded her, and she saw the familiar things in the room clearly, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She knew she was scared.

Thinking of He Yu and An Zhijia saying to them, "In our family, she is indeed a big guy", she remembered that her heart sank at that time. He Yu's recent performance is really ......

For the sake of children? For the sake of the children.

It's a kid again...... Thinking of this, Li Yaotang sat on the edge of the bed weakly.

I slept very unsteadily all night. Somewhere in her body was cramping, she tossed and turned, but she just didn't want to wake up. Confused until dawn.

Li Yaotang stroked his forehead, which was cold from sweating, and found that he was still wearing a watch on his wrist.

She took a closer look at the watch: a very ordinary plain watch, without fancy decorations, a gold dial, only clearly printed with Roman letters; Dark brown buffalo leather strap with the most traditional water ripple decoration. After using it for a long time, the buckle is a little worn. She rolled over. Delicate fingers caress the surface. It is warm.

“…… Every minute and every second, every year and every year...... Tang Tang, I will always be by your side......"

Li Yaotang's forehead rested on his arm. The warmth of hardness was imprinted on her brow.

On her twentieth birthday, he put the watch on her hand.

She knew what he wanted. It was forever and ever, to be with her.

Forever.

How could she have imagined that the days God had kept them together would be so short?
