Half a month later.

Gu Changsheng, who was blown by the air conditioner on the bus, was a little cold, and he looked at Tang Wan beside him, who was already asleep. Tang Wan's head fell on Gu Changsheng's shoulder very dishonestly, and Gu Changsheng controlled his breathing evenly for fear of waking Tang Wan.

Thanks to Tang Wan's deep sleep, Gu Changsheng put his mind on Tang Wan, which made him not have much to think about.

Lu Li is buried in a cemetery on the outskirts of Qingcheng City, which takes more than two hours by bus from the city. In the past, Shan Lanfei had always accompanied Gu Changsheng to see Lu Li, but today it was Tang Wan.

The vehicle drove over a country road, and the road was full of potholes and bumps, waking up Tang Wan, who was being true.

Tang Wan opened her confused eyes and looked around, and found that she was leaning on Gu Changsheng's shoulder, and hurriedly straightened her body, blushing and not daring to speak.

Gu Changsheng didn't react, and said with concern: "Sleep for a while?" There's still half an hour to go. ”

Tang Wan shook her head and said shyly, "I'...... Look at the scenery! With that, he leaned his head against the window and looked at the large green vegetable gardens along the way.

Gu Changsheng moved his shoulders and relieved the soreness.

The two were silent all the way......

......

The car gradually arrived at the station, Gu Changsheng got out of the car, opened the sun umbrella and put it on Tang Wan's head. Tang Wan saw that most of Gu Changsheng was "bathed" in the sun, she knew that it was useless to say anything, so she could only lean closer to Gu Changsheng, so that he would not be so hard sunburned.

The two walked through the dirt road in the countryside and walked to a large iron gate, which was a little rusty, but the back of the door was very clean, and it should have been cleaned often.

Tang Wan secretly glanced at Gu Changsheng, his hands were shaking, just like he said that night, he was afraid.

Tang Wan silently stretched out her hand and shook Gu Changsheng's hand. Gu Changsheng only felt a soft touch coming, and then he saw Tang Wan's smiling face, like a spring breeze.

Gu Changsheng took a deep breath and said, "We'...... Let's go! ”

Tang Wanqiu nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

Gu Changsheng looked around as he walked, as if he was looking for something, and he still had a nervous expression on his face. Tang Wan knew that he was looking for his father.

The cemetery often hears the chirping of birds, and there are many wild flowers and weeds along the way, so it seems that the environment is quite good.

The two walked for a while and came to a corner in the south of the cemetery, where there was a lonely tombstone, Gu Changsheng stepped forward and knelt down. Tang Wan looked at the words on it - Lu Li.

There is a yellowed photo on the tombstone, the woman in the photo is beautiful, looks gentle and generous, and her eyebrows are full of gentleness but arrogance, like Gu Changsheng. Tang Wan was also secretly amazed in her heart that Gu Changsheng's appearance had more or less inherited from Lu Li, and the mother and son looked so similar.

"Mom, happy birthday, I'm coming to see you again." Gu Changsheng looked at the tomb, there were no roses, it seemed that Gu Jiaxing did not come. He exhaled and relaxed a lot. Although I don't know why he didn't come this year, this is a good thing for Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng faced Lu Li, and the temperament on his body that rejected people thousands of miles away was gone, just like a child, and his eyebrows were full of thoughts. He spoke slowly, detailing one event after another this year, like an elementary school student going home to show off his progress to his mother.

"Mom, I've made a lot of money painting this year, and I'm already famous."

"Mom, I'm playing again, you should be happy."

"Mom, I'm not alone anymore, and I have a lot of reasons to stay strong." Gu Changsheng glanced at Tang Wan when he said this, he smiled slightly and continued: "I rented a house out, you won't be angry, the person who rented the house is a girl, called Tang Wan, stupid, very good person." ”

Tang Wan stood behind Gu Changsheng and watched Gu Changsheng pour out his heart like a child, and her heart was full of distress for him. Tang Wan knew a lot of Gu Changsheng, a lot of Gu Changsheng that others didn't know. Gentle, cold, fragile...... She felt more and more that the older boy was suffering in a way that she shouldn't have to endure at her age. The seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy should have grown up in the sunshine of family affection, but he was like a weed in the mountains, persevering in a harsh environment.

Tang Wan felt sorry for him from the bottom of her heart, although she was an orphan, she grew up in a welfare home since she was a child, and she also had many playmates, and her younger brothers and sisters were in groups. The old dean also gave himself family-like care like a grandfather. The fire two years ago destroyed everything, and the old dean took his own life in order to save the last child trapped in the fire, and never came out again. No one was injured in that fire, except for the old dean.

Later, the Qingcheng Welfare Institute was closed due to a fire, and all the children were transferred to a welfare home in another city, and Tang Wan chose to stay and start a work-study life. The days of part-time work are very hard, the salary is small, the work is tiring, and I am often busy until midnight. It wasn't until some time ago that I came to the coffee shop to apply for a waiter and met Shan Lanfei, and my life got better.

Because of these experiences, she knew that the most painful thing is not gaining, but gaining and losing. She knew that Gu Changsheng's pain of losing his mother was a scar that could never be erased in his heart, and he blamed Gu Jiaxing for all this, and tried his best to hate him and his biological father.

Tang Wan left her thoughts, looked at Lu Li's tombstone and said, "Auntie, I will take good care of him for you in the future, and I won't let him stay up late in the future, and I won't let him skip breakfast......"

Gu Changsheng smiled softly at Lu Li when he heard Tang Wan's words, and said, "Mom, didn't you ask me to bring a little girl to see you before, but now that you have brought it, are you satisfied?" ”

The breeze blew gently, and the treetops around him swayed gently, like Lu Li's answer.

Gu Changsheng looked at Tang Wan.

Tang Wan looked at Gu Changsheng.

The two looked at each other and smiled, their fingers clasped together.

......

When they left the cemetery, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and the two walked all the way to the bus stop without separating their hands. Tang Wan's face was red, and her heart beat faster. Gu Changsheng was like a person who was fine, but he was thinking about something, which made Tang Wan feel a little embarrassed.

"That ......" Gu Changsheng took the lead in letting go of Tang Wan's hand and scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

Tang Wan was a little puzzled, not knowing what he wanted to say.

Gu Changsheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, his cheeks gradually turned red, and he slowly spoke: "I often hear others say..... Some things have to have a sense of ritual, otherwise they will end unclearly. ”

"Huh?" Tang Wan still didn't know what he wanted to say.

"I ...... I just want to say......" Gu Changsheng stammered, still unable to speak.

"What do you want to say?" Tang Wan was a little speechless, why did this boy look more shy than herself?

"I just wanted to say I like you!" Gu Changsheng suddenly shouted, and then panted frantically, as if this sentence had exhausted all his strength.

Tang Wan was stunned at first, and then speechless in shock, although she often imagined that Gu Changsheng would say such things to herself one day, but she didn't expect it to be today. She was about to say something, but Gu Changsheng stretched out his index finger and gently pressed it on her red lips, signaling her not to speak.

Gu Changsheng stared at Tang Wan, with a serious look on his face, his eyes were firm, and he slowly spoke: "I haven't liked other girls since I was a child, I don't know what it's like to like you, but since I met you, I know that liking is that I will be flustered when I can't see you, I will be inexplicably angry when I see you have a fever, and I want to cook for you every day, so I know that I like you." ”

"I know you have your own dreams and a lot of things you want to do. Because I like you, I don't want to bother you to pursue what you want during this time period, and I can't affect your life because of my selfishness. ”

"So, Tang Wan, are you willing to be my girlfriend after the college entrance examination?"

Gu Changsheng stared at Tang Wan with a red face, and his determined eyes let Tang Wan know that he was not joking, but very serious. But Gu Changsheng suddenly said such a big thing at once, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Tang Wan knew in her heart that she had been waiting for the day when Gu Changsheng spoke, but people were so strange, they had obviously waited for a long time, but when this day came, she couldn't speak.

"I ...... I ......" Tang Wan hesitated, and the word "willing" couldn't be said when it came to her mouth, as if it was stuck in her throat. She really felt useless at this moment, and she wanted to cry a little in a hurry.

"Needless to say, I know what you're trying to say." Gu Changsheng looked at Tang Wan's anxious face and red ears, and suddenly laughed. He said, "Although many people think I'm a piece of shit, and I sometimes think so, my only confidence is that no one but me can snatch you away." ”

Tang Wan blushed and lowered her head, muttering in her heart: "Where did you get your confidence?" "But when you think about it, it seems to ...... He's right...... Many years later, Tang Wan would always laugh when she recalled this incident, thinking about it carefully, this was simply the strangest confession she had ever seen, how could anyone decide without anyone agreeing to herself?

The bus drove over slowly, Gu Changsheng took Tang Wan's hand and said gently: Don't be stupid, get on the bus. Tang Wan followed Gu Changsheng to the car like a puppeteer and sat next to Gu Changsheng. She lowered her head, and after a long time, she finally spit out two words: "Wish...... Willing to ......"

Gu Changsheng sneered, and then heard Tang Wan speak weakly: "I still have a question. ”

Before Gu Changsheng could say anything, he spoke: "I will cook the meals, I will wash the clothes, I will do the housework, I can give birth to boys and girls, for a lifetime, I will open a design store wherever you go to college in the future, is there any problem?" ”

Tang Wan was stunned again after hearing this, what the hell is it to give birth to a boy or a girl? But when I think about it, apart from that question, I really seem to want to ask these questions...... She had to speak weakly, "No...... Nope. ”

Gu Changsheng touched Tang Wan's head and smiled dotingly: "Good." ”
