Chapter 86
In the early morning, the mist did not lift. Mu Hanxia wore a mask and a sweatshirt and went downstairs. There was a soft golden light on the horizon, but the ground was still dim.
Running has become a habit over the years, and her stride is very even and powerful. She ran out of the community, along the high-rise buildings of the International Trade Center, along the small square, running at a constant speed. The mood is also the most peaceful and pleasant time of the day.
At this moment, she saw a man slowly appearing on the other side of the road.
He wears a dark gray sweatshirt and black sneakers. At first glance, it is brand new. I didn't wear a mask, and I didn't run in a hurry or slow. His countenance slowly emerged from the mist, and the moment he stared, his eyes were as calm as ever.
Mu Hanxia ran past him.
"Early." He said.
Mu Hanxia: "Early." ”
The two passed by.
Mu Hanxia understood that Lin Mochen was a person who planned and then acted, and there were many means. He used this set in the love field, and it turned out to be indomitable and leaky. But knowing that he came to meet on purpose, she still couldn't help but think of the past with him.
Thinking of the short days when we lived together, she would still go for a run every morning, but he never went. He was the only man Mu Hanxia had ever gotten along with day and night, and at that time she wondered, why are men and women so different? He always sleeps well. I always sleep until the alarm clock rings several times every day, and then I get up with a calm face and wake up after washing my face. Of course, he is a very self-disciplined person, and if he has to get up at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night because of work, he will get up on time, no matter what time he goes to bed the night before. But it was true that he could sleep, and sometimes the two of them slept early on weekend nights, and the next day he could sleep until almost nine or ten o'clock, and then he was refreshed.
Perhaps, it was because he was still a young man at that time that he was so sleepy, right?
He lives in the Fengchen Mansion these days, and she never meets him when she runs. Could it be that today is the first time he has gotten up early to run in so many years?
Mu Hanxia stepped on the sunshine on the road step by step, slowly slowing down. She's pretty much the same today. She suddenly remembered that when she was abroad, she ran along the river every day. For a while, there was also a Chinese young man who followed him every day. And then what? Then on the day when the person finally confessed, she refused directly, and then ran super fast and threw the person off. At that time, she was hiding like a ghost, running all the way, what was she thinking? She thought that there would probably be no one in her life who would run with her. She even laughed at herself that even if she hadn't broken up with Lin Mochen, there wouldn't be. Because he never runs......
Just thinking like this, Lin Mochen ran over again, and it was already another circle.
The sun came out of the clouds, and the outline of his figure looked exceptionally clear. Black and cold eyebrows, fair and thin face. The two approached step by step, and he gradually stopped.
"Done?" He asked.
Mu Hanxia: "Hmm. ”
He gasped slightly, put his hands on his waist, glanced at his surroundings, and said, "The air here is too bad, you'd better not run here in the future." ”
Mu Hanxia took off his mask, wiped his sweat with the towel on his shoulder, and said, "There is nowhere else to go, and I don't like to use the treadmill at home." ”
On the road next to it, there are cars constantly passing by. The road has become noisy. He said: "It's not that there is nowhere to go, three kilometers from here is Wangxing Park, if you think you can, we will drive together in the future." ”
Mu Hanxia looked at the shadow under his feet, smiled and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
"Okay." He looked at her and said.
Both of them were silent for a moment, and walked side by side in the direction of return. After being away from the road, it was quiet all the way. The tall buildings were still silent, and birds flew by in the sky.
When he arrived at the door of her community, he asked, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
Mu Hanxia replied: "Not yet." The porridge was cooked at home. ”
He stopped, smiled suddenly, and said, "It's been a long time since I've eaten porridge cooked at home." One day after that, if you cook too much, I'll go up and eat it again. ”
Mu Hanxia replied softly, "Okay." ”
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
She turned around and walked into the neighborhood, took two steps, and heard his voice coming from behind: "Summer, see you tomorrow." ”
Mu Hanxia was stunned for a moment, and then took a few steps forward before he came back to his senses, and turned his head to see that he had already walked away.
——
When Lin Mochen said "see you tomorrow" in the morning, the reason why Mu Hanxia was stunned was because she was going to Jiangcheng today, and she would definitely not be there tomorrow morning. I took two days off from Lu Zhang, also for this.
When she arrived in Jiangcheng, it was noon. If she returns to China this time, she feels that Beijing has changed a lot, and it is more prosperous and fashionable. Then Jiang Cheng brought her the feeling that she was stuck in seven years ago. The city is still vast and old, the road is still dirty and lively, the big bus is shuttling at high speed, so many places, the Yangtze River Bridge, pedestrian streets, and countless small shops along the street have not changed.
But there are still many places, many people, that have changed.
For example, in front of her, this has closed down the Leya supermarket. She once worked in the flagship store with the highest single-store performance in Central China.
She got out of the cab and stood on the side of the street, looking at it. The entire building has been fenced off, and workers are demolishing the perimeter decorations. The words "Leya MART" on the roof of the building are gray and old. When she was abroad, she had also heard about the impact of e-commerce on physical supermarkets, and noticed that Leya's performance was declining year by year. But when I really saw that the store had closed here, I really realized the feeling of time passing and things being wrong.
She left Le Ya and walked along the familiar road in the direction of home. It should have been a winding, dusty path lined with precarious old buildings. But there was no more, and the foot became a smooth concrete road, and all the old buildings were overturned. The slum that trapped her and nurtured her in the past has disappeared and has become a small park. The sun is open, the trees are shady, the grass is green, and the road is getting wider and wider.
When she was abroad, she already knew about the demolition of her home. At that time, I still asked He Jing to handle the formalities on my behalf. The things at home and the relics of his parents are also asked to be kept by He Jing. But at this time, seeing the changes here with her own eyes, the last home no longer exists, her heart is calm and painful.
After sitting in the park for a while, she got up and left.
She took a bus and got off in an old residential area. According to the address given by He Jing on the phone, her home should be near here.
Seeing that it was noon, she thought that if she went to He Jing's house, she should work He Jing to cook. He Jing doesn't like to cook a lot, and would rather eat a boxed lunch every day. Mu Hanxia smiled, found a small shop on the side of the road, and sat down to eat.
The road is narrow, but it's also lively. Pedestrians, bicycles, and the occasional car that drove in filled the road. Mu Hanxia sat at the small table with a shiny oil and ate a bowl of noodles, and felt the loneliness and warmth in his heart that he had not seen for a long time.
On the other side of the road, there is Carreya. It is a home-sized supermarket, and this kind of supermarket is a residential business, and it seems that people come and go, and the business is not bad.
Mu Hanxia looked at this Leya and ate slowly. Suddenly, at some point, I saw a middle-aged man who was a little familiar and walked out of the supermarket.
She froze.
It's Meng Gang.
