appointment

Xiao Ling's eyes were slightly red, and he could feel that there was bright sunlight shining in, and when he opened his eyes, the sky was already bright. There was no longer Lin Yi by his side, and Lin Yi rarely woke up earlier than him, thinking of last night's incident, his heart tightened, he jumped out of bed, put on a piece of clothing and rushed out.

At this time, Lin Yi walked out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in his mouth, tilting his head and looking at him suspiciously.

Xiao Ling suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he vaguely remembered that he was going on a date with Lin Yi today.

After brunch, the two went out, it was close to 12 o'clock, Xiao Ling had been paying attention to Lin Yi's expression, and only Lin Yi's side face could be seen from the rearview mirror, and Lin Yi kept looking out the window.

"Where do you want to go?" Xiao Ling made her voice sound as relaxed and pleasant as possible.

"Central Park," Lin Yi replied by looking out the window.

The weather was very good on this day, New York in October was lukewarm and hot, just right for travel, and there were already many people gathered in Central Park, some people flying kites, some people walking dogs, some people playing rugby, some people pushing strollers for a walk, a group of leisurely and leisurely.

Lin Yi put his hands in the pockets of his baseball jersey jacket and walked slowly along the side of the road, Xiao Ling followed half a step behind. Xiao Ling realized at this time that the two had not walked together like this for a long time.

Walking on the opposite side is a rabbit puppet carrying a basket, which is a common way for merchants to publicize, the rabbit puppet stops beside the two and stretches the basket in front of the two. Lin Yi saw that there were a lot of golden eggs in the basket, and the puppet motioned for the two to choose one each, Lin Yi took one and opened it, and inside was a small note with dark clouds and lightning drawn, and he did not win the lottery. Xiao Ling chose one, opened it, and it was a note with a heart drawn, and he won the lottery.

The rabbit doll clapped her palms happily, handed the small rabbit doll in the backpack behind her to Xiao Ling, stepped on the basket and walked away.

Xiao Ling looked at the frustrated Lin Yi and handed the doll to Lin Yi, who took it with both hands, put it on his face and smiled.

The two continued to walk forward, and saw the automatic drink vending machine along the way, Lin was a little thirsty, so he stopped, threw the coin into the coin slot, chose coffee, and waited for a long time, but the drink machine did not move.

Xiao Ling took out a five-yuan banknote, threw it into the banknote slot, chose the coffee, the drink machine made a sound, and dropped out two cans of coffee, boom, the change also fell down, only one can of money was deducted, Xiao Ling handed the coffee to Lin Yi, Lin Yi took it, and pulled the ring, but the ring was pulled off with a light pull, Lin Yi looked at the coffee that could not be opened and was a little depressed, Xiao Ling opened another can, and exchanged it with Lin Yi, Lin Yi finally smiled.

After walking half a circle in the park, Lin Yi came to the chair and sat down, Xiao Ling sat next to Lin Yi, the two looked at the teenagers who were playing rugby in the distance in a daze, at this moment, Lin Yi's eyes fell a green thing, Lin Yi looked in the direction of the thing falling, a fleshy caterpillar was squirming on his leg.

"Wow....." Lin Yi jumped up screaming, and Xiao Ling hurriedly stepped forward, caught the caterpillar and threw it out.

Lin Yi looked at Xiao Ling, thinking about what happened for half a day, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

After staying in Central Park for a long time, the two went to see a recently released movie together, and when it was dark, they came to Chinatown.

"When I was decorating Xiaoxiang Yaju, I found a snack bar, the fish skin was very delicious, I went to eat almost every day at that time, I'll take you there, right?" Xiao Ling didn't like roadside snacks, but seeing Lin Yi's eyes shining, he seemed to have finally cheered up, so he happily agreed.

The two sat down at the bar of a small snack bar, not far from them, there was a pair of customers, the owner and chef came over to greet the two, Xiao Ling saw that it was an old man with half-white hair and a kind face.

"Uncle Zhong, one serving of sweet and sour fish skin, two servings of boat porridge." Lin Yi is familiar with the ordering.

The old man put the barley tea in his hand in front of the two of them, and said with a smile, "You haven't been here for a while." ”

Lin Yi took a sip of tea, "I'm a little busy at work, is your business okay?" ”

The old man straightened up and wiped his hands on his apron, "With the corner in front, the magnificent Xiaoxiang Yaju is definitely not comparable, but there are also people who are good at this, with the light close to Xiaoxiang Yaju, there are a lot more people than before, and they can feed our old couple." The old man smiled at the two of them, and turned to prepare his meal.

The fish skin was brought up, Xiao Ling saw this kind of food for the first time, and had some doubts about its hygiene, Lin Yi had already picked up the chopsticks and put them in his mouth, and Xiao Ling had no choice but to start.

Fish skin shuang is not put sugar and vinegar, but Lin Yi likes to be jealous, Xiao Ling likes sweets, so the first time Lin Yi came here to eat fish skin shuang, the boss made it sweet and sour, and after eating it a few times, he was addicted.

"It would be nice if I could convince Julia to add Fish Skin Shuang to Xiaoxiang Yaju's menu," Lin Yi said with a smile.

"That's unlikely" Xiao Ling thought about Xiaoxiang Yaju's menu, looked at the appearance of the fish skin, and replied truthfully.

Xiao Ling sat upright, eating fish skin elegantly, dining etiquette was already a matter of deep bone marrow for him, it had nothing to do with the dining occasion and food, and the aura he exuded was a little incompatible with this small shop.

The words "I love you" came to Xiao Ling's ears without warning.

Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and saw Lin Yi looking at him steadily, the boat porridge in front of him didn't move a few bites, the three words just now should indeed be said by Lin Yi.

The corners of Lin Yi's mouth twitched, and his eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

"I really love you."

Two bean-sized teardrops rolled down from Lin Yi's eyes, and after that, Lin Yi's tears were like beads with broken threads, rolling down into the porridge in front of him one by one, Xiao Ling stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Yi's arm.

Lin Yi gave him the feeling at this time, as if it would disappear in the next moment. Kelin Yi just sat there and wept, and it didn't disappear.

At the same time, Zhuoya, who was far away in Los Angeles, was sitting in the rest area of the maternity and infant hospital, wearing a peaked cap on her head, a mask and sunglasses on her face. Holding the color ultrasound report in his hand, in the dark uterus on the picture, you can see an obvious white round bulge, glued to the uterine wall, although it is only an image, it seems to be alive.

His legs trembled, and finally he couldn't help himself, and he stood up and walked back and forth in the hallway, the report sheet in his hand creased by his clenched palm. Once your mind is coming to your senses, take a deep breath and sit down again in the lounge area. Re-unfolded the report sheet in his hand, pulled off his sunglasses, stared at the white bulge with his eyes, wanted to see more clearly, as long as he looked at it for a longer time, he could see more content, stretched out his hand, and couldn't help but touch it with his fingertips, it was hard to imagine that a life was conceived in his body. Looking down at the slightly bulging lower abdomen, in the past four months, she only thought that she was a little fat.

Picking up her phone and flipping through the contact directory, she didn't know who to tell and who she could turn to now, so she flipped through them one by one, until she saw the name, stopped, and after some thought, dialed it.

After dinner in Chinatown, Lin Yi and Xiao Ling drove back to their apartment, and Lin Yi looked at the brightly lit night scene of Manhattan with a lot of thoughts. At this moment, the mobile phone rang, picked it up and saw that it was Zhuoya, as soon as Lin pressed the answer button and put the phone to his ear, he heard a low sob.

"Lin Yi, I'm pregnant, help me, help me......"
