It was gloomy and dark, and the room was a little dark, Li Yaotang turned on the lights in the dining room, then sat down, first took a copy from the stack of newspapers on the dining table, and flipped through it casually.

He Yu is a big fan of print books and newspapers. From home to abroad, from the party newspaper to the military newspaper, there is a thick stack every day. Even if he doesn't have time to read it, he likes to flip through the headlines in the morning.

Aunt Zhao poured juice for her, saw the newspaper in her hand, smiled, and said, "So, in the future, your father should be busy, right?" ”

Li Yaotang smiled and nodded. These days she was flustered, and she didn't notice what she should have paid attention to. The 60th anniversary of the Navy is celebrated, and there is a military parade in August. Father should really be busy. No wonder He Yu specially told her that night not to make trouble for her father if she was fine. His son-in-law is more careful than her daughter-in-law—but then again, is she such an ignorant person?

The house clock rang almost at the same time. This sound is very layered, and the aftermath is lingering.

Li Yaotang raised his eyes and looked at the wall clock, it was already half past eight, and He Yu should also come down for breakfast. Isn't this guy slacking off on vacation? At this time, the phone in the living room rang, and Aunt Zhao was just about to go out to pick it up, so she motioned to go by herself.

It's the mother-in-law.

Li Yaotang habitually walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with the phone to listen, and found that it was raining outside.

She listened to her mother-in-law whispering this and that on the phone...... If the raindrops jump in and hit her heart, they will be warmed.

It's raining. It's so big. fluttering, rolling down from the gray canopy. The surroundings were quiet, as if everything was frozen, only the trail of snow falling.

Li Yaotang returned to the dining table, and He Yu had already eaten half a bowl of porridge. Hearing her coming, she said "morning", and her eyes did not take off the newspaper.

Li Yaotang glanced at the newspaper in his hand and asked, "When are you going to Hong Kong?" ”

"Friday." He glanced at her, "Together?" ”

"If you really want to go together, you should be uncomfortable." She continued to flip through the newspaper.

He Yu looked at her.

Li Yaotang said slowly: "I'm not such a cautious person. Business is business, and there is no need to trouble your information department to block the news. ”

"How do you know?" He frowned.

She said lightly, "I naturally have my gossip." ”

Tong Tiehe choked in his heart and almost choked.

"It's not all because of you."

"Hmm."

"Dad also said, let's keep a low profile." He thought for a while, "Otherwise, I won't go to Hong Kong, anyway, I will follow the procedure." It's the same with letting other people go. ”

"Whatever you want." She lowered her head and continued to look at the newspaper, "But if you're going, tell me - yes." ”

I see. She took these little things to heart. After thinking about it, he asked again: "You really don't mind?" ”

She frowned, this person is so long-winded today.

Patiently, she said, "Really." Horizontal and vertical are irrelevant people. ”

When He Yu heard this, he didn't say anything more, but pursed his lips.

……

"Fu Gan and Zhijia's wedding gift, do you have any ideas?" He Yu would hold a cup of coffee and sit down beside Li Yaotang. Li Yaotang was sitting on the sofa, holding his chin and watching a TV series.

Li Yaotang said "um".

Tie the knot...... Gift...... She didn't move.

The conversation at the dinner table between the two in the morning is still in my ears. Although she really never asks about his career. But he cooperated with her, and she was really not angry?

That's weird!

Li Yaotang had the intention to ignore him.

But He Yu is very close. She could smell the aroma of coffee and the refreshing smell of him.

He Yu looked at the war on the screen and frowned, "I thought you only watched Korean dramas." ”

Li Yaotang turned his face and said very seriously: "I also watch domestic dramas." Her big eyes blinked behind bright lenses.

He Yu smiled.

"But this drama is very badly filmed." Li Yaotang seemed to sigh.

"Then you still see."

So she replied, "There is nothing to do." ”

He Yu looked at her as if she was really bored. Li Yaotang held a puppy cushion in his hand, hugged it comfortably in his arms, his legs were folded, and the whole person leaned on the sofa, very relaxed.

He Yu took a sip of coffee, "Since you have nothing to do, why don't you go on a trip?" You don't seem to have traveled in a while. Where do you want to go, I'll let Lao Han arrange it for you. ”

Li Yaotang looked over. His elbows were on his knees, and he leaned forward, outlining the shape of the muscles on his broad back—he had a pair that seemed to be able to carry all of them.

He must have known that she didn't have the heart to think about any wedding gifts, let alone the desire to go to the ceremony happily, thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but be a little hot.

Her eyes turned back to the TV series, but she couldn't concentrate there. There are several backs alternately appearing in front of me, overlapping and overlapping, and finally, printed into one...... Li Yaotang sniffed, at that time, He Yu's back didn't seem to be as thick as it is now......

The spring of that year was exceptionally hot. It seems that I have never experienced such a noisy and suffocating spring in my memory. The eldest uncle was suddenly dismissed, and the family was clouded. Later, things had developed far beyond her imagination, making her feel extremely depressed, so she told her family that she would go to Dongshan to live for a few days. The reason is to write a graduation thesis. The eldest aunt naturally knew her thoughts, so she let her go.

In the days of Dongshan, she was isolated from the world, and her routine was reversed.

She just tried her best not to think.

Then one morning, she was suddenly woken up. What happened to him?

It was like something that had fallen out of thin air, and he appeared in front of her with the smell of morning dew and the scent of grass. At first, he didn't say anything, just looked at her.

She was calm. Because they know why he came.

After such a long time, she can still clearly remember that morning, some cold sunlight wrapped the man in front of her, handsome like a medieval knight - how magical! They had known each other for more than twenty years, and she had never thought him handsome; Even after a long time of marriage, I didn't think he was handsome. It was only at that moment that she suddenly had a thought in her mind. And this handsome man is about to get engaged to her.

She didn't know why she was so calm.

Look at him calmly, listen to him calmly, and answer his questions calmly.

Actually, he didn't say much, the point was: Tang Tang, are you really willing?

He looked cold, his eyes were cold, and his tone was cold.

She said yes. There was no hesitation. She never looked back on what she had decided to do. The daughter of the Li family wants to marry the son of the He family, which is an absolutely irretrievable fact. And she, except for that person, who she wants to marry is irrelevant to her. He Yu, at least, is someone she knows. Although, there has never been much intersection with him. I never thought that I would end my life with this person in such a connection.

All she remembered was that he looked at her fixedly, and after a long time, he said, "That's good." Okay, let's get married.

And so it was settled. Soon after, an engagement ceremony was held. The wedding is scheduled for May. She waited quietly to be the bride of May. But because of the SARS outbreak, I almost couldn't get married. The whole city was shrouded in a thick shadow. And she was isolated in school. In those days, she ate nothing but sleep. The only connection to the outside world is a mobile phone. The aunt wanted her to go home, but she refused.

That's good.

She even selfishly thought that it was better to just like this and fall silent with the city.

That afternoon, she sat on the bed with the quilt in her arms, watching the sun shine through the window and spread on the floor. It was as silent as a tomb. This dormitory building was originally located in the middle of nowhere, and when something happened, many people ran away. There are very few people who remain. It's like a rat hiding in a hole. Rats that survive on food reserves. More or less nervous, anxious.

She sighed. Then footsteps were heard. Getting closer. It was so close that she thought she had reached her door, and suddenly disappeared. Her heart was pounding violently.

She jumped out of bed, grabbed her coat, and ran to the door of the dormitory with a quick and fast ear, her ears close to the door, and she listened intently—there was no sound. But my heart was beating faster and faster. She pressed her chest, calmed her breath, and slammed the door.

Sure enough, there was a man standing outside.

A man.

What a encounter.

It's not fun at all, and she has a straight face, and she seems to be very dissatisfied with the door that suddenly opens and she is not very neatly dressed.

She froze......

A long, long time later, she looked back and asked herself, in that moment, if she was disappointed. The answer is no. She didn't really expect any miracle when the door opened. For her, there is only one miracle, but she has long known that in her life, it is a long time to pass. However, there was no disappointment. Because, standing in front of her, He Yu made her feel that she was still in the world.

"You...... How did it come? She didn't even forget to say hello, just stared at him blankly, helpless.

"I'll take you home." He said lightly. Then, he stood in the hallway, waiting for her to change inside the door.

She hurriedly changed into her pants and shirt, and didn't have time to tidy up her little dorm room—there were stacks of books, clothes, biscuits, chips, and cup noodles on the table, and discs scattered here and there. The only thing that makes her feel good is that although it is messy, it is not dirty. He's a very tidy person, and she knows it. But when he came in, he still frowned slightly.

As if he had expected her refusal to go home, he didn't insist, but said, "The family is worried about you." He sat down. Sitting on her chair, this sitting suddenly showed the crampedness of the chair. Just like her. With him, it's always a little cramped.

"I'm fine." She whispered.

He looked around the room and nodded, as if believing her words, "So ......"

"Okay." She immediately straightened up.

He looked at her, "I haven't said what it is. ”

Her face suddenly warmed up—she thought he was leaving.

"I'll go out for a while." He stood up.

He took off his coat and put it on the back of his chair. The weather is hot, and he is still neatly dressed, so he can't stand the temperature. Then he went out. Half an hour later, he returned. With his assistant Lao Han. Lao Han carried two boxes of drinks, and he carried two large bags of things. Lao Han was sweaty, greeted her, put down his drink and went out.

After standing slightly, there was nothing to say.

When he was leaving, he picked up his coat, looked her in the eye and said, "Wedding...... It's postponed to mid-July, you know? ”

She nodded. In extraordinary times, try to avoid crowds.

"Tell me if you need anything."

She stood in the doorway, nodding silently.

"Really not going home?"

She nodded again.

"OK, then I'm leaving."

He turned away before she spoke.

"Thank you."

He waved his hand.

"Let's go inside."

She shook her head and let him go first. Until watching his figure disappear into the hallway. She went back to her dormitory. Looking at the pile of things, I suddenly felt very peaceful. He even bought his aunt's towel for her. He Yu is careful, and he can also be very careful.
