"Boss, can I borrow your phone and watch the time?" Han Lin asked casually as he looked at the TV.

"No. The owner of the gold shop took out his mobile phone, because the screen had been locked when he was chatting just now, and the time was displayed impressively, 2:50 in the afternoon.

Han Lin glanced at it, said thank you, and walked out.

Of course, he is not concerned with time, but with the two lines below time.

Wednesday, October 24th.

September 16 of the year of Wuxu.

"It's the same year...... Eight months, only eight months have passed!"

Han Lin walked out of the gold store, looked at the road in front of him, and felt that the whole person was in a trance.

He couldn't remember the day he disappeared from this world, and the specific date was.

I remember it was about February.

He originally felt that the days were not important, and even other memories were not important, because he would never come back, and if he forgot it, he would forget it.

But how can you really forget!

It's as if the language of these two worlds is not the same, but just now, I saw the gold shop owner in front of me.

spoke, but it was a familiar and unfamiliar hometown dialect.

Even if I haven't said it to anyone for eighteen years, when facing that boss, I don't need to think about it at all, and I naturally say it.

Even Han Lin himself didn't expect it, he remembered, so deeply.

Penetrated into the soul.

"I'm going back. ”

Han Lin looked in the direction of the station, walked over without a trace of hesitation.

His heart was anxious, and he longed to go back.

He felt that everything might still be in time.

Originally, he was afraid of hearing bad news, afraid of time, and when he left, he would take away the old father who raised him single-handedly.

But now, it's only been eight months, and it's definitely still too late!

Step by step, Han Lin's footsteps were fast, but he was just walking on the ground like an ordinary person.

There is no explosion of internal force, and there is no manifestation in front of people.

He's not afraid of anything, he's not worried about exposing anything.

It's just that he is now an unfilial son, an identity who left quietly and went back without face.

Now, with anxiety and guilt, he just wants to see his loved ones.

There is no high coming, no stepping on the sky, Han Lin is like a student who has left home, wants to go home to visit, and came to the long-distance station.

He was silent, lining up.

It didn't take long for it to be its turn.

The conductor didn't raise his head, but just stretched out his hand in the window.

No response.

"ID card. "The young conductor, who has only been employed for two years, has lost his enthusiasm for reception and simplified it.

"I don't have an ID right now. Han Lin said lightly.

"What ticket do you buy without an ID card...... the conductor looked up impatiently with tiredness, slightly dark bags under his eyes.

But halfway through her words, she was slowly stunned.

Because Han Lin just looked at her seriously, her eyes were very clear, she didn't know why, she could read a kind of sadness.

Just a glance made the conductor feel that the person in front of him really knew that he was going to buy a ticket because he had something very important.

"Please help, I'm going home. Han Lin endured his feelings.

But his words made him, a man who was proud in front of the great dynasty, almost choked.

After a few seconds of silence, the conductor took out his ID card and swiped it.

"Where are you going?"

Han Lin said the name of his hometown.

He used to think that he had forgotten, but how could he forget.

"There's just another one, sixty dollars. The conductor said.

The journey was long, but she felt that the person who looked so much missed must be very short compared to the time he spent outside.

"Thank you. Han Lin paid the money, took the ticket, and thanked him again.

Memories of his past came back to him, familiar, and found the waiting room.

Half an hour later, check in and get on the bus.

Han Lin opened the window, it was only a station outside, but a car, carrying many people who were going home or leaving, could make him feel real.

After another ten minutes, the car was about to leave.

Before leaving, a girl dressed in youth and beauty, with an appearance of about twenty, with black hair, a short pink skirt and white stockings, walked to Han Lin's side.

"Classmate, can I sit next to you?"

Xu Ting's face was slightly red.

Next to her original seat, there was a sloppy man who was smoking.

And this kind of long-distance bus, the tickets sold, including those who get on the train at the back station, so there are still a lot of vacant seats at this first stop.

Han Lin listened and nodded lightly.

Xu Ting sat down lightly, telling herself in her heart that it was just because she didn't know who was coming behind the other person in the other seat, so she chose Han Lin.

She looked quietly and found that Han Lin's side face was quite handsome.

is not so handsome that it is earth-shattering, but she is a good-looking person, and there is a temperament on her face that makes her heart particularly throbbing at the sight of it.

Is it melancholy? Xu Ting asked herself in her heart.

It's a bit like, but it's very different from the kind of boy in my class pretending to be.

Those eyes are completely different from the boys of the same age I know.

can obviously look like himself, that is, he is about the same age as himself.

Xu Ting was puzzled and a little suspicious that she was a nymphomaniac.

As the car slowly started, she was slightly disliked, because this man really kept looking out the window.

Obviously, she is also the flower of the university, and she has dressed up carefully today, wearing her favorite pink dress and white stockings, which can only be said to be invincible.

As a result, I didn't even look at myself.

Xu Ting felt aggrieved and began to take the initiative to find a topic.

"You're going home?"

"Hmm. ”

Xu Ting secretly glanced at it, found the ticket in Han Lin's hand, and went to the terminal.

"I got off the train one stop ahead of you, although I am not a fellow countryman, but it is very close. Xu Ting said with a little joy.

"Hmm. Han Lin still replied lightly.

This made Xu Ting a little unhappy, usually boys are courteous to please themselves, but this person really doesn't care about her.

She decided not to take the initiative anymore, even if this person was very much like her favorite type.

But what made her uncomfortable was that Han Lin sat in the car all the way, looking out the window all the time, and would not take the initiative to talk to her.

Even if he stopped to rest, even if others got out of the car to eat and move, Han Lin didn't move.

It continued until, Xu Ting was about to get out of the car immediately.

"We're very close, I happen to be interning in my hometown in my senior year this year, and I have a lot of time, do you want to add a micro...... Letter?"

Xu Ting plucked up her courage and took the initiative to ask.

She feels that meeting is a kind of fate.

For so many years, she has not looked for a boyfriend, she can't look down on those boys who are the same age, full of sperm, and only know how to open a room, and she thinks that the person in front of her may be special.

It's just that she is so proactive, it is really her first time, she is a little ghostly, the white melon seeds are blushing, and she is waiting for Han Lin's reply with anticipation.

"No, I don't have a phone. ”

Han Lin was still looking out the window, but he remembered clearly in his heart that there was only one station left.

But hearing this, Xu Ting's heart was full of grievances, and her eyes instantly turned red!

She didn't know what was wrong with her today, as if she had fallen into an evil spirit, and stubbornly felt that the temperament of the person in front of her had never been seen before, just like a true destiny with a radiant nature, and she really wanted to know more and be more familiar with it.

But the other party didn't want to pay attention to her appearance at all, and even said such a clumsy excuse.

Xu Tingqi's chest rose and fell, clenched her hands, and almost tears rolled down.

Han Lin had a clear perception of everything, of course.

For the first time, he turned his head to look.

Xu Ting also found that look, and didn't want the other party to make fun of herself, so she endured it, gritted her teeth to stabilize her emotions and expressions.

"You're beautiful. Han Lin said sincerely.

He knew, of course, that he now had nothing, and that this girl, approaching her purpose, was pure.

So of course he doesn't hate each other for no reason, and it's not a shame to want to make friends with others.

Xu Ting felt a little better when she heard such a direct compliment from the other party, but she still didn't understand why the other party rejected her, and said such an impossible excuse as not having a mobile phone.

"I'm not lying. Han Lin said sincerely as if he could see through her heart.

"But we are not people of one world. ”

Han Lin said very sincerely.

This sentence made Xu Ting feel that she believed it just by listening.

And at this time, the penultimate stop, arrived.

Xu Ting could only get out of the car.

She looked at the night outside the car door and thought, just go crazy once!

Follow the past directly, since you have taken the initiative to such a point, it doesn't matter if you are thought to be upside down!

But she also felt that the other party's sincerity and melancholy, knowing that she would only disturb the other party.

"Goodbye. Xu Ting looked inside the car and said words that she hoped to see again.

"Goodbye. Han Lin smiled and nodded.

When the long-distance bus set off again, there was no one to accompany it, and it was not in a hurry, and it reached the end.

It was already late at night at the moment, and Han Lin got out of the car and found that his hometown at night added a touch of strangeness.

But he can see things with his eyes and see clearly, in fact, there is not much change from his impression.

Han Lin walked towards the way home.

If his father was normal, he should have worked the night shift in the factory, but Han Lin chose to go home and go back to that simple home.

Along the way, he walked around without attracting anyone's attention, as if he were just a normal, homesick person.

After coming to the outskirts of the county and walking a small road, Han Lin arrived at his home for 22 years.

Two simple, mud-tiled houses.

On the side of the house, the walls that used to be clean, now weeds are growing.

In front of the house, there is also an empty cement field.

He can dry grains, and it is also a place for him to play as a child.

Han Lin once felt that the concrete floor was very big.

But now it's small, and you can step over it with one foot.

It's just that what Han Lin didn't expect the most was that.

A person who shouldn't have been here is lying in a rocking chair at the moment.

Squeak... Squeak...

The wooden rocking chair is shaking.

There was an old man, lying on the rocking chair he had made with his own hands, but the size was obviously on the small side, looking at the night sky, stunned.

"Dad. ”

Han Lin felt that tears were uncontrollable, gushing out!

It's only been eight months, and my father is so much older than he remembers!

This call also startled the people in the rocking chair!

But when he sat up, what he saw through the moonlight was a completely unfamiliar face.

But this person's expression, this person's eyes and shout, are so sincere.

"Huh?" the old father said, in dialect, calling his son's nickname.

"It's me. ”

Han Lin puffed and knelt on the ground.

He didn't expect it, he really didn't think of it.

He caught up,

What he once thought he would never see again, the father who gave him his soul, was right in front of him!
