Chapter 45: Life is Imperfect

The streets are full of New Year's flavor. Many merchants take advantage of China's largest traditional festival to do a variety of promotional activities, and it is very rare for Qingzi to come out with her parents to buy New Year's goods.

When passing by a store, she saw An Ran and Ou Muyang picking things together, Qingzi watched them keep talking to each other and didn't seem to notice her, so she left as if she didn't see it.

Kiyoko's mother also seemed to see it when her father went to drive and asked, "I seem to have seen the boy next door to you with a girl just now, is that his girlfriend?" ”

"Oh, is it? I didn't see it, I don't know! Kiyoko had to pretend to be stupid.

"And have you been quite close to Chen Xiaofei recently?"

"Can we get close with you watching like this?"

"Kiyoko, can you tell me the truth? I saw you together, I just didn't tell your father, he still thinks you're separated. ”

"It's my own business, can you leave it alone?" Kiyoko was a little anxious after hearing this.

"Actually, it's not that I don't let you fall in love freely, I'm just worried that you will be hurt, and Xingchen, is she in love?"

"Nope. You must not tell my dad about me and Chen Xiaofei, otherwise it will be over with you. ”

Kiyoko saw the car coming, and hurriedly opened the door and got into the car, her mother sat in the front, and she sat alone in the back and played with her mobile phone boringly. I don't know why, seeing the scene where An Ran and Ou Muyang were together just now, she felt that it was more suitable for them to be together, and Xingchen might have more burdens, after all, the pressure of being the right person would make happiness discounted.

Xingchen's days at her father's house were spent outside except for three meals a day at home, and sometimes Doudou would come out with her when he was free.

Xingchen's middle school was spent in this small county, so she has such affection for every grass and tree here.

"Sister Xingchen, let's go to No. 1 Middle School to have a look, that's your school and it's my regret, I missed the entrance by three points, and my parents are very disappointed."

Is this a reliving of the past? Remembering the moment she just received the admission letter, her grandmother's happy smile she will never forget for the rest of her life. Grandma said that she would only have the opportunity to see her mother if she was admitted to the first high school, because her mother was waiting for her in a very prosperous and beautiful city. When she was a child, whenever she asked about her mother, her grandmother always encouraged her like this, and it wasn't until she actually got into the first high school that she didn't see her mother, she knew that it was just a lie.

The familiar picture of campus memories, everything seems to be so easy to remember and so vivid, but the sentimentality of things and people makes people have to sigh that time is fleeting.

"Doudou, what do you want to do in the future?" Xingchen asked.

"I want to be an excellent designer like Sister Xingchen, my father always talks about you, saying that you have good grades when you are studying, and you can earn a lot of money when you come out to work, and you gave me the money for my mother's illness this time, he is very grateful to you, and I am also very grateful to you, if it weren't for you, my mother would ......"

Xingchen instantly snorted after hearing this, she always thought that her father had forgotten her completely, but she didn't expect that she would often be mentioned in the days without her, and he had not forgotten her.

"When you grow up, you will come out to work, and you will earn a lot of money, and then give it to your mother!"

"Sister Xingchen, in fact, I have always known that you ...... us"

Xingchen looked at the little girl looking down and was very distressed, she bent down and looked into the girl's eyes and said very sincerely: "Everything is over, you guys are fine, I am also very happy to come back to see you this time." ”

"Then you must come back often in the future!"

"Come back often"? Xingchen knew that she would definitely not be able to do it, she didn't know how to answer the girl's question for a while so as not to disappoint her, she saw a store not far away and smiled and said, "What do you want to eat?" ”

"Ice cream!"

"Eat ice cream in winter, have taste!"

Xingchen bought two ice creams, although it was a cold winter, but she felt that there was a warm current flowing into her heart, remembering that every time her grandmother came to school to see her, she asked her grandmother to buy an ice cream, and then grandma always said helplessly: "It's just a quirky child, eat ice cream in winter!" ”

And then she always said very triumphantly: "It's taste!" ”

After returning from school, Xingchen's mood was much better, and when she got home, she saw that the woman was busy in the kitchen so she took the initiative to help, and her father saw it and hurriedly asked her to rest outside, although she felt a little embarrassed but still did as her father instructed. Although she always has an expressionless attitude, her heart is extravagant to get her father's belated care.

Xingchen stayed at his father's house for four days and left, although before leaving, her father's family repeatedly kept her or resolutely left, she always felt that it was a happy family of three, and she was always a passerby, since she was a passerby, she was destined to leave, but on the whole, it was enough to go home this time and her heart was warm.

When Xingchen came back, Enran and Qingzi didn't know, and she only said it when Tian Ye happened to ask, so Tian Ye insisted on picking her up at the station.

"You said that this New Year is so sad, I'm going to leave when you come!" Tian Ye said.

"Since you picked me up, then I'll send you away, when will you leave?"

"Noon the day after tomorrow."

"Do you know who the person I think about a lot when I'm abroad?"

"Who?"

"You? Fool! I always felt that we were too much alike, and there was an illusion of sympathy. ”

Xingchen laughed and said nothing.

"Come out for a drink at night, it's rare that the atmosphere of the New Year is so good, don't stay at home alone and waste your time, at eight o'clock, I'll pick you up." Tian Ye said when he sent Xingchen downstairs to his home.

"Okay, wasting time with you!" Xingchen waved goodbye and left.

Since Zeyang left, Xingchen rarely came to the bar, especially whenever she saw the singer on the stage singing, she always unconsciously remembered that person, many times you want to forget and don't care, but life is like a naughty child, the more you don't want it to be like this.

Xingchen thought that it was rare to have a field here, so let's have a good time!

Xingchen thought that Tian Ye and Kiyoko were there, but he didn't expect that she and Tian Ye were the only two of them when they arrived at the bar.

"Just the two of us tonight?" Xingchen was curious.

"Yes! Isn't it enough? ”

"No, I just don't think it looks like your style!"

Tian Ye smiled and ordered a low-alcohol cocktail for Xingchen.

"It's rare to have a two-person world with you, of course I have to cherish it."

"Your mouth is still so sweet, it seems that you haven't changed at all, I take back what I just said."

"I suddenly feel happier than Enron!"

Xingchen couldn't understand Tian Ye's sudden emotion, tilted his head and continued to listen to Tian Ye's explanation: "At least we can spend the world of the two of us comfortably together, but Enron can't." ”

"Actually, I think It's good for An Ran and Ou Muyang to be together, and I sincerely wish them."

"It's not easy for him to be safe, in his words, he has been a working machine in the past few years, and it is Mr. Long who controls that machine."

"I think that dragon is always very good to him, where did the 'manipulation' come from? ”

"It's good, it's also his luck, as he said, the dragon is always his nobleman, without him there would be no today, so he has to reciprocate, and he is willing."

Xingchen felt a lot of helplessness when she heard this, but she didn't think about it, after all, this is the essence of life, and it has never been perfect.

When Xingchen returned home, she found that the lights of An Ran's house opposite were already on, so she said to Tian Ye who sent her home, "An Ran seems to be at home, do you want to go up and have a look?" ”

Tian Ye thought for a few seconds before saying, "Well, I haven't been there for a long time!" ”

When Tian Ye and Xingchen appeared at the door of An Ran's house together, An Ran was naturally unexpected.

"You two have been drinking?" An Ran smelled a smell of wine.

"Just a few glasses!" Tian Ye said.

"Then I'll pour you a glass of honey water!"

"When did you become so considerate, I don't get used to it." The field looked a little tired under the influence of alcohol.

"The field will leave in two days, so let's get together, I'll go back first!" Xingchen was ready to get up and leave.

"Wait a minute!" An Ran walked over: "I'll send you to work tomorrow!" ”

"Thank you!" Xingchen didn't even know why he agreed.

Xingchen returned home only to receive a message from Kiyoko saying that she would take leave and not go to work tomorrow, so she would not come back tonight and continue to stay at her parents' house. Xingchen thought that Kiyoko just wanted to stay at home and spend more time with her parents, and then went straight to sleep.

Qingzi's father knew that she had been in contact with Chen Xiaofei, so he confiscated her mobile phone in a fit of anger and sent this message to Xingchen in the name of Qingzi.

At this time, Kiyoko was like a golden bird locked in barbed wire, isolated from the world.

The next morning, Xingchen and An Ran appeared downstairs together in the company, and when they walked into the building together to wait for the elevator, they saw Ou Muyang already waiting there.

"Mr. Ou, Happy New Year!" Xingchen hurriedly greeted him.

"It seems that after a year, I am in a good mood!" Ou Muyang said.

An Ran listened and wanted to say something, but saw that there were other colleagues around him, and they just said some words.

When Xingchen returned to the office, she heard a colleague ask her why she went to work with An Ran today, why didn't An Ran ride to work, was it to send her to work? Xingchen didn't expect that it would bring so much unnecessary trouble due to an unintentional promise last night, and he regretted it to the extreme, so he could only keep explaining that he had just encountered it, and there was no other reason.

As soon as Xingchen sat down in her place, she received a call from Chen Xiaofei, which surprised her. Through Chen Xiaofei Xingchen, she knew that Qingzi might be in trouble at home, and she remembered Qingzi's abnormality in the past few days, no wonder she replied very perfunctory to messages sent to her in the past few days, it turned out that she was "under house arrest".

Xingchen called, and Kiyoko answered it in the past.

"Is there anything you need my help with?" Xingchen asked.

"You should come to my house after work, maybe you are the only one who can persuade my dad to move them."

Xingchen thought about it and could only try it, although she didn't agree with Qingzi's parents' approach, but it could be seen that Qingzi's parents had made a lot of determination, and she didn't have much confidence in herself to make Qingzi's parents change their minds.
