After eating, Xia Zhi and Xiao Yiqing walked around the street for an afternoon, watched a movie, and had dinner together in the evening before returning to Bianxi Village.

Xia Zhi didn't plan to buy anything, and eating and watching movies were all money given by Xiao Yiqing.

When shopping, Xiao Yiqing chose a set of clothes, she had to try it, she tried it out and turned around twice, and when she went back to the fitting room to change back into her clothes, Xiao Yiqing settled the account without saying a word.

She wanted to return the money to Xiao Yiqing, in exchange for a round of fierce glares from the latter. Xiao Yiqing didn't say anything, but Xia Zhi knew that she was wearing the white-washed denim skirt she often wore in college, and she must have guessed that she was financially tight.

She accepted Xiao Yiqing's kindness, and at her suggestion, immediately changed into new clothes to watch the movie.

Throughout the day, her mood was relaxed and happy. It turned out that she was such a superficial person, a new set of clothes, two good meals, a movie, and a blind walk washed away the haze above her head.

She didn't call Pan Rui, just sent a message, and Pan Rui replied to tell her to have fun. When she unlocked the rental door, it was nearly nine o'clock.

Pushing open the door, she sensed that something was not quite right, and the room was pitch black.

Hasn't Pan Rui come back yet? Even if you go out for a quick meal, it won't be like this.

She stepped into the darkness, fumbling for the light buttons on the wall in the faint light of the window.

The moment the light came on, Pan Rui snorted and sat up from the bed. He and Xia Solstice were startled at the same time.

Xia Zhi pressed his heart and said, "You went to bed so early?" ”

Pan Rui reacted at this time, and he pinched his eyes: "Hmm...... I'm a little tired today......"

Summer Solstice closed the door and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. Pan Rui often lies in bed during the day, but he has never tried to go to bed so early. She put her hand on his forehead: "What's wrong with you?" Uncomfortable? ”

It's a little warm, but it seems to be within the normal range. He pulled her hand down and noticed the new clothes on her: "Clothes newly bought?" ”

She nodded and explained, "Yiqing sent it to me." Is it good-looking? ”

"Beautiful." He smiled slightly, as if he knew some secret.

"Really, it was really sent to me by Yiqing." His smile was so faint that Xia Zhi couldn't help but emphasize it again, this statement was a bit like three hundred taels of silver here, she really wanted to slap herself in the mouth.

"It doesn't matter if you bought it yourself. You should be kind to yourself. ”

He pulled her into his arms and hugged her, and she felt his arms like a tense band, princing her almost breathlessly.

As for it? They've only been apart for less than a day...... Was it because of the new clothes she was wearing? Or was she too happy to sting him? She has always been sensitive, and he doesn't look like such a delicate person.

She didn't know what was going on, and she was covered in a kiss he had dropped. He dragged her to the bed, and she was worried that her shoes had not been changed, leaving her feet outside the mattress, hanging in the air.

The light was not turned off, she blushed all of a sudden, and closed her eyes involuntarily, the light penetrated through the slit in her eyes, she did not move, her clothes and shoes were taken off, and as soon as her feet were freed, she wanted to retract her feet back into the bed, but her body was immediately controlled.

She just lay reclined, her feet hanging and beams of light flashing on her eyelids......

Xia Solstice spread out her palms and held them in the air, cutting off the straight line between her eyes and the fluorescent lamp, and the light flowed out from her fingers, with an illusory beauty.

She lifted the back of her head up and pillowed it on Pan Rui's chest, pulling up the blanket that had just slipped with her movements. She decided to ask him anyway, "Are you unhappy today?" ”

"Nope."

"You don't like me hanging out?"

"How is that possible?"

"Then why aren't you upset? I can tell. She rolled over and rested her face on his shoulder socket so that she could comfortably look up at the side of his face.

He opened his mouth and closed it again, and she could hear the air in his chest bulging rapidly. She waited silently, and he finally said, "Summer solstice, I'm going home tomorrow." ”

Her heart shook for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

"The town government wants to recruit a group of contract workers, and my mother asked me to go back and give it a try." His tone was calm, he couldn't hear the expectation or the frustration, he just stated it simply.

"Didn't you go back and take the civil service exam? Didn't get in. She grabbed a sentence indiscriminately, regardless of whether it would upset him.

"This one is different. The requirements are much lower, and the competition is not that big. My mom went and asked, and they just wanted some locals. A school like mine is better, and I was born and raised and can speak the Dahe dialect, so there is a great opportunity. ”

Xia Solstice waited for him to continue, but he seemed to have finished speaking. There was a silence between them, and even though they were in the same bed at the moment, she felt that he was no longer around.

After a while, she sat up and looked down at him: "Comrade Pan Rui, what should I do?" ”

"I'll come back to you." He also sat up, leveling the line of sight between the two.

"How do you find me?" She thought it was ridiculous, and even the punctuation in her words was tinged with funny.

"Didn't we talk about it? Nanzhou and Taicheng are 150 kilometers away, where you are, home is there. I come back to you every week. ”

It's hard for him to remember this, because she thought he wouldn't leave Nanzhou, so she forgot about it a long time ago. She pointed out the fallacy of this sentence: "Nanzhou to the center of Thai city is 150 kilometers, and then to your home, how many kilometers?" ”

"No matter how far away, I'll come to you." He was so conclusive that she couldn't argue with it.

She can't say she doesn't believe him, nothing happened, can she assert? It's just that her heart tightened for a while.

She didn't want to face him anymore. She got out of bed and walked to the bathroom, throwing down the phrase, "Whatever you want." ”

She didn't have a choice, he wasn't consulting her, he was informing her about it. It makes no difference whether you accept it or not, and it doesn't change the fact that he's leaving.

She slammed the toilet door and pressed her forehead against the door panel, the cold plastic door panel, the emotionless plastic door panel, unable to swallow her tears one after another.

"Summer solstice." Pan Rui's voice was outside the door, "I have really tried, and several companies have said they want me, but do you understand, those small companies only want cheap labor." I don't see hope.

"If I continue to waste money like this, when my status as a fresh graduate has passed, and I don't have any work experience that I can use, it will be even more difficult for me to find a job. I can't keep doing this...... I can't rely on you...... My parents are also old, and I have younger siblings at home......"

She couldn't hear a word. She felt that there was not a door between them, but a thousand mountains and rivers.
