After they finished eating, Xue Ting proposed to go to KTV to sing, Shen Yin refused on the grounds that she wanted to take care of her grandmother, Wang Mengliang also said that she still had something to do and didn't plan to go, and in the end, only the four of them went to the KTV in the town.

Shen Yin was about to finish cleaning up the tableware on the table, Wang Mengliang walked up to her and pulled her to the sofa and sat down.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yin looked puzzled.

"Shen Yin, I want to get engaged to you as soon as possible." He looked at her sincerely.

Shen Yin hesitated, she withdrew her hand, dodged his fiery gaze, and said slowly: "I still have to think about it, after all, we have been together for a short time." ”

He said eagerly: "We are just engaged first, and if we get married, we can postpone it, there is still a long time in between, and we can get to know each other slowly." ”

"I'm sorry, I haven't figured it out yet." She was also confused now, not knowing what to do now.

"I see, I'll wait for you slowly." He took her hand again.

"Can you give me a month? I want to be quiet. She looked him in the eye and said with a stumbling voice.

He thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay! Shen Yin, I will wait for you. ”

Wang Mengliang helped Shen Yin clean up the tableware, and then drove back.

After Wang Mengliang left, Shen Yin had been sitting in the living room, what he had just said echoed in her mind repeatedly, and she really didn't know what to do.

When she woke up, she realized that she had fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room, and she looked at her phone on the coffee table, it was two o'clock in the morning. She hurried back to her room, turned on the electric blanket, and continued to lie down, but after tossing and turning until half past three, she still did not fall asleep. I simply got up, opened my notebook, and began to draw comics. She felt that only in the process of drawing comics could she find peace and real 'rest'.

She painted until dawn, when Grandma was already up.

She got up and made breakfast for her grandmother, and after breakfast, she wanted to go out with her grandmother. There was a small entertainment place near her house, with some simple facilities, and Shen Yin helped her grandmother to slowly spread around the casino.

She has already contacted a nursing home in the county and plans to send her grandmother there in three days. Grandma's spirit has improved a lot these days, although her memories are scattered, but she can still remember some basic things.

Shen Yin kept holding her grandmother's hand, and she whispered softly in her grandmother's ear: "Grandma, after you go to that place, don't worry about me, I will take you out and go home for two days every half month." ”

"Well, Yin'er, don't worry." Grandma looked at her kindly.

Shen Yin's eyes were red, she gently leaned on her grandmother's shoulder, held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and sniffed, "Well, grandma." ”

They spent half an hour in the casino and then went back. Shen Yin saw that her grandmother's spirit was not very good, so she sat on the sofa and dozed off all the time. She helped her grandmother to the bed and covered her with a quilt.

Shen Yin was packing up her grandmother's things at home, and she found the notebook in a cabinet, which had been kept by her grandmother. She flipped through the notebook, and the scenes full of memories of her youth came to mind, especially the blurred white figure.

The next day, Shen Yin went to the central hospital, and on the way to it, she passed by a flower shop, and she bought a bouquet of carnations. She made a phone call to Xue Yufan in the hospital before going in.

She walked into the ward and saw Xue Yufan sitting on the bed, his complexion was good. Shen Yin put the flowers in the vase on the table, "How are you now?" She smiled at him.

"It's almost already." Xue Yufan smiled, "I'm really sorry for what happened last time. ”

"It's been explained, and you don't have to apologize." Shen Yin sat down in front of his bed.

"What have you been up to all these years?" Xue Yufan changed the subject.

Shen Yin smiled awkwardly, she touched the broken hair on her sideburns and said, "Something happened at home, so I was busy working." ”

"Well, I can see that you have a lot more gray hair." Xue Yufan smiled, picked up an apple on the table and peeled it.

"Uh, you can still see that I've dyed my hair?" Shen Yin pushed his hair to his right ear and looked at the ends of his hair, but he didn't see any white hair.

He handed her the peeled apple, Shen Yin glanced at him, took the apple and took a bite.

"Is it delicious?" He looked at her tenderly, smiled at her, and showed shallow dimples.

"Are you really okay?" Shen Yin asked uneasily, "Is it really all right?" ”

"Don't worry, it's really fine." He patted his chest and smiled.

"Okay, I'm sure of you." Shen Yin looked at him with a smile, feeling like a child, "Now let's talk about some serious things, shall we?" ”

"What's the matter? Do you like me? Xue Yufan had a smile in his eyes and approached her.

"What do you want? It's about Momo. Shen Yin pursed her lips and said, "Huang Wenwen has already told me everything, have you always planned to live like this?" ”

"I will fulfill my responsibilities as a father, but I will not marry Huang Wenwen."

"Is it because of me?"

"I don't love Huang Wenwen, do you think there can be a difference between me and her after getting married?" Xue Yufan's tone was a little angry. He was silent for a while and said, "Shen Yin, do you remember the content of the letter I left you when I was in junior high school?" ”

Shen Yin remembered the envelope that she had lost before she could even look at it, and she shook her head, "I'm sorry, I lost it at the time." ”

"You didn't read the letter?" He asked, confused.

"Well, I lost it before I could see it, and I didn't find it for a long time." Shen Yin's tone was very low, like a child who made a mistake.

"I see, maybe this is providence!" He smiled and looked out the window.

"What's wrong? Is there anything important in mind? Shen Yin asked a little anxiously.

"That's the 'confession letter' I gave you, so you didn't read it at all." His eyes were lonely, and he leaned on the pillow behind him, "I heard that you already have a boyfriend, right?" ”

"Well, you ......"

Xue Yufan interrupted her, "I understand, if you read that letter, you will still reject me." His voice was low, with an awkward smile, "But I still like you, and I still do." ”

Shen Yin put down the apple in his hand, "I'm sorry, I've fallen in love with someone else." ”

"Don't go, stay here with me, okay?" Xue Yufan grabbed her wrist, looked at her and said, "I should have known it a long time ago, but I still can't accept it." ”

"I think it's best to make some things clear in person, Xue Yufan, I won't like you, I'm sorry, I'm very sorry for letting you misunderstand." Shen Yin broke free of his hand and stood up to face him.

"I know, I've always known." He got out of bed and stood in front of her, "After confessing to you for the first time, you rejected me. I've been working hard for so many years and I hope you like me. His eyes were red.

"I'm sorry!" Shen Yin walked quickly to the door and just opened the door.

Xue Yufan pulled her into his arms, hugged her waist, and whispered in her ear, "Shen Yin, don't leave me, okay?" I'm afraid you're going to disappear from my world again, I can't wait that long. ”

"Xue Yufan, you let go of me, I have already made it very clear just now." Shen Yin gently pushed his body, trying to break free from his embrace, but he was holding him so tightly that she could hear his heartbeat.

At this time, Momo pushed the door in, and Huang Wenwen stood at the door, holding a lunch box in her arms. Seeing this scene, she gently put the lunch box at the door, squatted down, picked up Momo and was about to leave, but Momo shouted loudly to Xue Yufan: "Dad." ”

After Shen Yin heard the voice, he whispered to Xue Yufan: "Momo is here, you let go of me." ”

He let go of his arm, Shen Yin took a step back, she sorted out her clothes, combed her loose hair and said, "I'm leaving!" ”

Xue Yufan grabbed Shen Yin's wrist, glanced at the door, and said to Huang Wenwen, "Why are you here?" ”

Huang Wenwen bent down to pick up the lunch box on the ground and replied softly, "I cooked fish soup and brought some to you." She handed him the lunch box.

"Well, you get out!" Xue Yufan took the lunch box in Huang Wenwen's hand, put it on the table, and said with a displeased face.

"Remember to drink fish soup while it is hot to be nutritious." Huang Wenwen smiled at him and said, hugging Momo and preparing to leave the room.

Shen Yin broke free of Xue Yufan's hand and looked at him with an atmosphere, "Xue Yufan, you are no longer a child. She turned her head and shouted at Huang Wenwen, "Huang Wenwen, you wait." ”

Shen Yin moved the only chair in the room next to her, pointed to the chair and said, "Huang Wenwen, you sit here, please close the door!" ”

Huang Wenwen walked in cautiously and sat down on the chair, Shen Yin took an apple from the table and handed it to Momo, "Let's sit down and have a good talk!" Momo took the apple and ate it.

Shen Yin sat on the edge of the bed and saw Huang Wenwen looking at her in fear, a trace of sympathy flashed in Shen Yin's heart, she took a deep breath and looked at Huang Wenwen gently, "Huang Wenwen, you don't have to feel self-blame, please tell your true thoughts in front of Xue Yufan today, do you love Xue Yufan or not?" ”

Huang Wenwen glanced at him, met his cold eyes, she bit her lip, looked at Shen Yin in fear, and slowly spit out a word, "Love." ”

Shen Yin stared into her eyes and continued to ask, "How much do you love him?" ”

Huang Wenwen glanced at Momo in her arms, grabbed Momo's clothes tightly with her right hand, looked at Xue Yufan firmly and replied: "As long as I can stay by his side, I am willing to die even if I die." ”

Shen Yin walked up to Xue Yufan and saw that his face was still cold, "Xue Yufan, I know that due to the death of your parents, you are full of hatred for Huang Wenwen, it is estimated that you still hate her now, but think about it, all this has nothing to do with her, you are just running away." She saw that Xue Yufan was still expressionless, and continued: "In fact, among the two of you, Huang Wenwen is the biggest victim, you have always been unwilling to accept her, and you have always regarded liking me as a reason to reject her, in fact, in your heart, this is just your excuse." You touch your heart and think about it, after so many years, you have never taken the initiative to meet me, even if you liked me fourteen years ago, can you guarantee that you still have the same throbbing for me now? Is this what you call 'liking me'? ”

Xue Yufan was silent, and he sat down on the bed.

Shen Yin said softly: "Xue Yufan, I think the fundamental reason why you don't like Huang Wenwen is also because of your parents, right?" When Huang Wenwen's parents came to your house to 'make a fuss', your parents persuaded you to marry her one after another. They don't blame you for doing it, on the contrary, they are very happy and busy preparing for your marriage, but you are very much against them doing it. Because you have been disgusted with your parents since you were a child, a 'seed of rebellion' has long been planted in your heart, and the more happy your parents are, the more disgusted you will be. In the course of your argument with them, your father fell ill and died, and your mother was devastated by your father's death. In order to escape all this, you subconsciously comforted yourself and put all this responsibility on Huang Wenwen. ”

"Don't say any more." Xue Yufan's eyes were blank and he muttered softly.

Shen Yin squatted in front of him and held his shoulder, "Xue Yufan, calm down, in fact, your parents have never blamed you, they are just loving you in their way, although this way is not suitable for you." ”

Xue Yufan's eyes flowed with tears, and he sobbed and said, "Shen Yin, I'm sorry!" ”

Shen Yin patted him lightly on the shoulder and said, "Actually, the people you are most sorry for are them." She pointed to Huang Wenwen's mother and daughter.

Shen Yin hugged Momo aside and motioned for Huang Wenwen to comfort him. Huang Wenwen looked at Shen Yin gratefully, and slowly walked to Xue Yufan's side and sat down. Shen Yin walked out with Momo in his arms.

Momo was nibbling on an apple, saliva all the way to her chin, and Shen Yin took out a tissue from her satchel to wipe it clean for her. She looked at Momo carefully, and found that her eyes and mouth were very similar to Xue Yufan, she went to the supermarket at the entrance of the hospital to buy a Barbie doll, Momo put the apple that was gnawing half of the apple in her hand into Shen Yin's hand, picked up the Barbie doll and played.

Shen Yin took Momo to the courtyard of the hospital and sat on a long chair to bask in the sun.

Half an hour passed, and Shen Yin felt that they should have finished talking, so he hugged Momo and returned to the ward. Huang Wenwen was sitting on the edge of the bed, and Xue Yufan was drinking fish soup.

"Shen Yin, thank you!" Huang Wenwen stood up and hugged Momo.

Shen Yin smiled at her.

"Shen Yin, how did you know these things?" Xue Yufan looked at her and asked.

"A few days ago, I went to your family's old house and met your uncle by chance, and it was he who told me about your parents, and then I deduced it based on this information, but I didn't expect it to be really right for me." Shen Yin touched her hair in embarrassment.

He smiled slightly, "You are indeed half right. ”

"And half?" Shen Yin asked with a slight doubt.

"It's nothing, those don't matter anymore, thank you!" Xue Yufan looked at her gently.

"Your uncle wanted to see you, and I didn't tell him that you were sick and hospitalized now." Shen Yin took out a note from his bag, on which was written a string of mobile phone numbers, "This is his mobile phone number." ”

"Okay, I'll contact him." Xue Yufan took the note.

Huang Wenwen went out with Momo in her arms, and they were the only ones left in the ward.

"Now it's time for me to go, you take care of yourself." Shen Yin took the satchel and prepared to leave.

Xue Yufan stood beside the bed, grabbed her arm and said, "Shen Yin, can I hug you?" ”

Shen Yin faced him and hugged him with open arms, she smelled the faint smell of Western medicine on his body.

"Thank you, don't you forget me when you get married?" He laughs.

"How is that possible?" She patted him lightly on the shoulder.

Xue Yufan let go of her, "Okay, slow down on the road!" He said softly.

Shen Yin straightened his hair and waved at him, "There will be a period later!" ”

Shen Yin walked out of the ward and came to the gate of the hospital, and saw a crimson Audi A8 parked on the road outside the door, and Wang Mengliang was standing in front of the car waving to him.

"Why are you here?" She walked over to the car and asked.

"I'm looking for you to have something to do, get in the car first." He opened the door and motioned for her to sit in.

Shen Yin got into the car, and Wang Mengliang said while driving: "Do you know what day it is? ”

She thought for a while, but she didn't expect it, and was about to look at the date on her phone, he smiled at her, pointed to the red lantern on the side of the road and said, "Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival." ”

"Oh, I see." Shen Yin said calmly, with a slight disappointment in her tone.

"Shall you go to my house today? I brought my grandmother with me. ”

Shen Yin looked at the time, it was already half past thirteen in the afternoon.

"I've already discussed with my parents, let's go to my house for the holiday today, they're ready." His right hand lightly covered hers.

"Okay, I promise you." Shen Yin held his hand, his face full of happiness.
