Chapter 99 [A Weighty Piece of Paper]

"An'an, mom won't go back for the New Year this year, so you can celebrate the New Year at your aunt's house."

"Okay."

"When I go back, my relatives and friends will ask about your father, and I don't want them to know that I'm divorced."

"And when will you be back?"

"It may be the eighth day of the first lunar month, and I will go back to see you when I leave."

"Okay."

"Then you have to take care of yourself and pay attention to your body."

"I will, you have to pay attention to your body."

An An hung up the phone and sighed, she really doesn't like the New Year, other people's families are reunited, she actually wants to borrow it from a relative's house, she wants to open her mouth to tell her mother if she can take her with her for the New Year, but she doesn't have the courage to say so. All along, it was her mother who said what she said, she never refused, she didn't ask more, and even if she knew what was going on, she pretended to be stupid.

She wanted to share with her mother about her participation in the school flower competition, and also wanted to tell her about going to Phuket to play during the holidays, and she wanted to ask her how she was doing and how she was feeling. Is she still worried about her father's affairs, but she didn't speak, all along, if there is nothing to do, she will not take the initiative to call her mother, because sometimes if she is busy, her attitude will be very cold, saying that she is very busy and hangs up. She was afraid of that kind of coldness, and over time she didn't take the initiative to fight.

That's why it's her mother who calls, and she says a few words, and as long as she wants to say, she listens. Occasionally, when her mother came back, she would bring her small gifts, beautiful cards that read, "Mommy loves you." At first, she liked these gifts, but as she got older, she became more and more unfamiliar with the word mother. She only knew that her mother was having a hard time, but she felt powerless about it, so she was always indifferent.

Just learned the news of his father's cheating, An'an hated him very much, thinking that he was cruel and his mother was very pitiful. But after a long time, she became indifferent and deliberately avoided this matter. That's his dad, what can she do? These incomprehensible things were like a huge cage trapping her, she could only curl up in the center, not touching those cold walls and iron doors, the deeper she investigated, the more painful it became, hiding in the center and pretending that the world was still gentle.

If you want to say how much damage the divorce has dealt to An'an, no! It's just that she gradually began to understand that the world of adults is disguised, and she used to think that her parents had a good relationship and were very loving, but it turned out to be just the surface. She began to doubt that what she saw was not real, and she began to can't help but look at the people around her, examine these relationships, examine the things that she thought were right and insisted on growing up, and how much of them were real and worth holding onto.

Sometimes, she feels that she is superfluous, she does not have a home of her own, she wants to go away, but she does not know where to go. If there is a house, even if she is alone, she only needs a bowl of instant noodles and a computer, it is also a good Chinese New Year's Eve, at least get along with herself, she is very comfortable.

Then the phone rang again, and it was still my mother calling.

"I just forgot, I want to ask you if you are here, if the money is not enough to spend, if it is not enough, I will give you money when I am empty."

"Why don't you give me the New Year's money together, I might go out with my classmates during the holidays."

"Okay, then you have to be careful when you go out."

"Well, I will."

The only thing that makes An An Shore feel happy is her mother's trust in herself, no matter where she goes, her mother is very relieved and will never hinder her from going, especially for money, as long as she opens her mouth, her mother will not refuse, nor will she twist and pinch, let alone suspect her of spending money indiscriminately.

An'an asked the counselor for leave, packed up and went to the station to take the bus back to Lake City, and this week made an appointment to go to apply for a passport with Regeneration, because there is no business on weekends, so you can only do it on weekdays.

"I'm in the car!" An'an sent a message to Regeneration.

"Okay, I'm here too, waiting for you at the station." Regenerate the revert.

"Didn't you wait until I was almost there before I came out? What are you doing so early? ”

"It's okay, I just want to wait for you sooner."

"You're stupid, you're early, I'm not early!"

"It's okay, you can sleep for a while, and you'll be there when you wake up."

"I'm really convinced."

In the matter of waiting for others, regeneration has never changed. As long as he is waiting for An'an, if he doesn't have anything important, he will come early, not to mention that he has prepared a gift, and he can't wait to see An'an.

An'an saw Rebirth as soon as he got out of the car, and he walked towards her to help her carry the suitcase.

"You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you? It's very cold today, teach you to come out later and you don't listen. ”

"It's okay, I'm waiting for you in the waiting room, just came out."

"Let's take a taxi and get a passport now."

"Okay. We went to the side of the road to stop the car. ”

"You're also taking a leave of absence today?"

"Yes, the boss is not happy anymore, saying that I always ask for leave."

"The boss must not be happy."

"But I only have one day off a week, or I take turns off, how can I go to see you? Whatever, I'll take a leave of absence. ”

"I also think you have too little time to rest."

"Wait a minute, I have something for you." Regeneration held the small paper bag in his hand to An'an and shook it, "Look, what is this?" ”

"What?"

"A gift for you."

"Why don't you buy me a gift again?"

"I just got paid."

"Then save some flowers, too."

"I didn't have any money to study before, and I didn't give you any good things, but now I want to compensate you."

"But I don't need it, you can keep it for yourself."

"Open it up and see if you like it."

Urging by regeneration, An'an took out a beautiful box from the paper bag, and opened it to be a watch, the dial was beige, with a texture like crepe paper, the frame and bracelet were made of rose gold, and the points of time were shiny rhinestones.

"It's expensive, isn't it?"

"It's not expensive, the key is that you like it?"

"Well, how much does it cost?"

"It's not a lot of money, just a few hundred dollars."

"A few hundred yuan is not expensive, huh? I don't need such a good watch. ”

"I'll put it on for you." Regeneration said and took out the watch from the box, "Wow, it's so ice, I'll warm it up for you to wear later." ”

"That's too extravagant!"

"Where is the luxury, just right." Regeneration said and put it on An'an, "I've already removed part of the watch bracelet from the power cord, and it looks like I can remove another one, isn't it a little loose?" ”

"It's okay, so be it, it's too tight and uncomfortable."

"If you like it, don't tell me if it's expensive or not."

"Thank you, Zai, you've been so good to me. Actually, I don't understand this kind of thing, and I don't need it. ”

"Who said you don't need it, you look good in it."

An An looked at this watch, it is indeed very exquisite, but I feel that I am not worthy of it at all, like this style should be worn by a lady, and it is the kind of lady with a very temperament, such as Yan Xiaoxiao, she is a little awkward when she wears it, she still prefers a little literary style, and the strap is a leather watch that costs less than a hundred yuan. However, she was really satisfied that she could choose a gift for her so carefully, and wondered if she would give him one back, and it was Christmas soon.

When I got to the place where I got my passport, I went to get the application form, and An'an was with the box on the side. Suddenly, a familiar figure walked in from the door.

"An'an!" Before An An could react, the man came up first to say hello, "Why are you here too." ”

"Oh, I'll get my passport." It's amazing how rare it is to come back, to get a passport, and to meet acquaintances.

"How are you doing?" Remembering hesitated and asked.

"I'm fine, what about you?" An'an smiled.

"I'm getting engaged soon, so I'm going to get a visa and go to Europe with my girlfriend."

"Engaged so soon? Are you still in school? ”

"Of course, in school, my girlfriend can't wait, after all, people are older than me, and the family wants to settle down as soon as possible."

Regeneration walked over, "Yo, Remember, this is too coincidental." ”

"yes, regeneration, it's been a long time!"

"Long time no see!" Regeneration also sighed.

"Leave a phone call, there will be a chance to get together later." Pick up the memory and take out the phone.

"Okay."

Both An'an and Regeneration left each other's mobile phone numbers with Pickup.

"I'm about to get engaged, so I'm here to get a visa for my honeymoon."

"Wow, so fast! Congratulations! Regeneration's eyes were full of envy, and he had long wanted to settle things with An An and be by her side every day.

"Congratulations, we are going to drink wedding wine when we get married!" An Shore also chimed in.

"Okay, then I'll go first." Pick up the memory and put the phone in his pocket.

"Okay, you get busy first, and we'll do it too." An'an beckoned to him.

"The person who wants to get engaged is just different, full of spring breeze." Regeneration looked at the back of the memories and sighed with emotion.

"What's wrong?" An An squinted at him, still unsure of the situation.

"I just sighed."

"Don't look at it, look at everyone else after work. Hurry up and fill out the form, and I'll have to take a picture later. ”

"Oh, good. How to fill in? ”

"Here, here, there is a template style, just fill in this."

Two people stood in front of the counter and bent over, filling out the information carefully. After all the formalities were completed, the two of them slowly walked out of the hall.

"An'an, you said that if we didn't just get a passport, how good would it be to get a registration?"

"What do you want?" An An smiled, feeling warm in his heart, saying that a woman has been in love for a long time and wants to get married, but when she doesn't have any ideas, she has this kind of thought, and it seems that she really wants to be with her all the time.

"I want to get married."

"Isn't it nice to be together now?"

"That's not the same as getting married."

"What's different? It's just a piece of paper. ”

"Don't underestimate this piece of paper, I have a sense of security with this paper. And when we get married, we can be together every day. ”

"What kind of security do you want as a boy, I haven't said anything about security."

"I care about you, so I'm worried."

"Worried about what?"

"I'm worried you don't want me."

"Don't be funny, how could I not want you."

"You're a college student, I'm a high school graduate, and I don't have any money, what if you look for something better?"

"Am I that kind of person? What I decided will not change. ”

"I'm not saying you're that kind of person, I'm just worried, I'm afraid that others will rob me."
