The next day, Wang Yuan helped them place the furniture they had received, and the neighbor's life officially began. Kerwin is very popular at school, and there are many classmates who ask her out, so she disappears after class almost every day, and then she doesn't come back until late at night, and sometimes Ye Tang falls asleep, and she hasn't come back yet. If Kerwin's life is a colorful variety show, then hers is a plain literary film that few people watch.

Every day she gets up at 6 a.m., memorizes words for an hour, prepares for the professor's lecture that day, goes to school at 8 a.m., soaks in the library if she doesn't have classes, and comes home after the last class in the afternoon, and the rest of the time, sometimes she watches a movie, reads a book, or tries to make new pastries in the study. In the evenings, I spent my time working at Just Bar. Uncle Yun came back a week after she started school, brought a large number of ingredients and seasonings from China, and prepared fruit tea souvenirs for Ye Tang and Wang Yuan.

Speaking of souvenirs, the one Wang Yuan gave her during the summer vacation, she was putting it at the head of the bed, it was a doll. Later, she checked, this is the prototype drawn by Wang Yuan himself, and it is a must-have for fans, called Laiyang. The big one, I heard Wang Yuan say that it was the last one he had at home.

On September 10th, when the bar was closed that day, Ye Tangxin made desserts and planned to give Wang Yuan a taste, and when Wang Yuan opened the door, he felt that something was wrong with him, and there was a low pressure all over his body. Wang Yuan silently took the dessert in Ye Tang's hand, patted the sofa, and motioned for Ye Tang to sit down.

"Watching a movie? "Hachiko, the Loyal Dog". ”

Wang Yuan obviously only asked symbolically, and without waiting for Ye Tang to answer, he picked up the remote control and pressed the play button, and turned off all the lights in the living room, only there was still some faint light in the kitchen. In the dark, Ye Tang looked at Wang Yuan through the faint light of the TV, only to see him holding a spoon and slowly eating the cake in his hand one bite at a time, his cold expression softened slightly.

As the story of the movie progressed, Ye Tang was immersed in it, and he didn't notice Wang Yuan's expression of wanting to stop talking after eating the cake, and in the end, he just sighed softly and focused his attention on the movie. Near the end, there was a sound around him, Ye Tang squinted his eyes to find the paper towel on the coffee table, and wiped his eyes with his hands from time to time.

Wang Yuan pulled out a tissue and handed it to her, and he watched her wipe her tears until the movie ended, and the entire living room fell into darkness, and neither of them spoke. After a long while, when Ye Tang's sobs gradually stopped, Wang Yuan spoke:

"The cake was delicious, not sweet or greasy. Do you know I have a dog at home? Just after dinner, my mom called me and she said the dog was missing. ”

"I took it home, and at that time it was a little one, and I couldn't open my eyes. I hugged it when I went back from the summer vacation, and it was about as tall as me when it stood up. But it's gone. ”

"It must have recognized my family and found its way home, so why is it gone? And here I am, there's really nothing I can do. ”

"Although I haven't been home much before, the strangeness of being in another country always makes me feel more powerless at times like this, so I can only stay on the phone and hope for my family. I used to think that I could better protect the people I loved when I went abroad to study and returned, but I ignored that in the past few years without me, they have grown old and need my protection......"

Ye Tang listened quietly, in the dark, she slowly approached Wang Yuan, and then patted him on the back.

"You told me to make myself strong and protect the people you love. Don't think they're so vulnerable, you have to trust them. ”。

The words were wrapped in a thick nasal voice, and she sniffed and said as she thought: We all need to believe in the strength of adults.
