I don't know where two meows came from. Shen Xiyan was very happy, "Is there a cat?" Come out and let my sister take a look, my sister brought you a cat strip. ”

These gentle words, but when they fell on Chen Jinchuan's ears, they were like traffickers trying to abduct and sell children. "You also brought a cat strip?"

"Didn't you follow me all the way? You didn't see me shopping at the pet store outside the Forbidden City? Shen Xiyan looked at the cat that really jumped out of nowhere, looked at the cat strip in Shen Xiyan's hand, and wanted to step forward, but with a little timidity.

Although this cat took a fancy to the cat strip in Shen Xiyan's hand, Chen Jinchuan felt that this cat was very similar to himself and wanted to get close to Shen Xiyan, but he was always a little scared.

He was afraid that Shen Xiyan would not be able to give him the response he wanted.

Shen Xiyan smiled and fed the cat strip in his hand, and then touched the cat's hair. "Come and show my sister what your name is."

Shen Xiyan flipped through his mobile phone and searched for a long time but couldn't find the corresponding kitten. "You can't be like your sister, just entered the career establishment, right?"

Chen Jinchuan silently mended the knife on the side, "It's been a year since you entered the career editor. ”

"But this cat must have been later than me, you see, it hasn't been neutered yet." Shen Xiyan held the cat and directly showed the cat's belly to Chen Jinchuan.

Chen Jinchuan was extremely helpless, "I don't study biology or veterinary medicine, so there's no need to understand this." ”

"That's right, after so many years, I haven't seen you raise a cat or dog. But later, I want to get a cat. But it's not realistic, after all, I travel at every turn, and I can't take care of it. ”

"What about uncles and aunts? Can I help you raise it? Chen Jinchuan looked at Shen Xiyan holding the cat, and the picture at the moment was warm and moving, which made him unconsciously bend the corners of his mouth.

No one can see the face under the mask, but the smiling eyebrows can't deceive people.

"It's no fun, my parents said that it was tiring enough to raise the two of us, and now that the two of us have successful careers, we don't have to rely on them, they don't want to find an ancestor for themselves."

This is the original words of Shen's father and Shen's mother, just because of these words, Shen Xiyan also dispelled the idea of raising cats and dogs, after all, her work, no one takes care of her on a business trip, and it is too pitiful to be her pet.

In fact, Chen Jinchuan really wanted to tell Shen Xiyan that there would be no such trouble when he was with him, because Chen Jinchuan's side, whether it was Professor Sun or Professor Chen, they all liked pets, and Chen Jinchuan's family had been inviting nannies and aunts in recent years.

But in this way, Chen Jinchuan can't say it, and now Shen Xiyan just regards himself as a friend, not even a good friend.

Chen Jinchuan smiled and said, "You give me the camera, and I'll take pictures of you." Shoot you and the kitten. ”

This is a good thing for Shen Xiyan, and he hurriedly gave Chen Jinchuan the camera hanging in front of his neck, "You have to shoot well, don't make me ugly." ”

"No, first, you're good-looking, and second, you won't take off your mask." Although Chen Jinchuan has not studied photography, he has seen a lot in his work, so he naturally knows how to shoot, so he took a lot of photos of Shen Xiyan.

It wasn't until the kitten found that he was staying by Shen Xiyan's side and found that there was no more good food to eat, and he felt that he had run away, so he stopped.

Shen Xiyan watched the kitten run away, and suddenly asked, "Chen Jinchuan, do you envy this kitten?" ”

If it is said that he can get Shen Xiyan's favor, Chen Jinchuan is envious. But Chen Jinchuan knew that what Shen Xiyan said was not this, "It's envy, at least they are free, and I am not free." ”

What does fame bring? Brought money, fame and fortune. What was lost? lost his freedom, lost everything he should have as an ordinary person, and even for Chen Jinchuan, he lost Shen Xiyan.

"But Chen Jinchuan, this gain and loss are relative." Shen Xiyan comforted.

Chen Jinchuan knew that Shen Xiyan had always been the one who was very good at warming others. "You're right, it's all relative, when you gain something, you lose something." So Chen Jinchuan understands that he shouldn't complain.

"Alright, let's go, let's go to the Treasure Hall! Let's take a look at those precious treasures, which are considered luxuries among luxuries, and treasures that no amount of money can afford. Shen Xi said.

Chen Jinchuan watched Shen Xiyan jump in front of him, he raised the camera in his hand and took a few photos of Shen Xiyan's back.

Look at how free and free Shen Xiyan is. She was running to her liking, to her freedom. I can't hold her back.

Shen Xiyan turned around and saw that Chen Jinchuan didn't follow, so he smiled and beckoned, "Hurry up, can't you keep up with your physical strength?" ”

Chen Jinchuan walked a few steps briskly, "No." Xiyan: May I ask you a question? ”

Shen Xiyan said, "You ask, I'm in a good mood today." I know everything. "Being in the midst of cultural relics is so happy for her, an archaeologist.

The two of them walked side by side under the yellow tiles and red walls in the Forbidden City, and the breeze blew the corners of their clothes, which really looked like a wanton youth.

"Why did you choose to change majors in the first place?" Chen Jinchuan finally asked.

"Where is the why, I like it, you don't know, I have liked history since I was a child." Shen Xiyan stretched out his hand and touched the brick-red wall, turned to Chen Jinchuan and said, "Someone felt your feelings thousands of years ago, when you raised your head, what you saw was Li Bai's moon, and what you stretched out your hand to touch was the red brick that Ming Chengzu Zhu Di touched, and it was the changes of time in the past six hundred years." Don't you think this kind of emotional resonance is very interesting? ”

Chen Jinchuan also learned from Shen Xiyan to reach out and touch the red wall, and closed his eyes to experience the emotional resonance of Shen Xiyan's words. He can feel the emotions of the ancients through this brick and tile, and feel the moon of the ancients, Liu Xiao. But time goes by, and it keeps changing, but he can't get Shen Xiyan's emotional resonance.

Chen Jinchuan understands this emotional resonance, after he learned that Shen Xiyan changed his major to history and archaeology eight years ago, he wanted to know what Shen Xiyan was usually studying, so he would read history-related books and archaeology-related records when he had nothing to do. He did discover that history is an extremely mysterious and romantic profession.

He can understand why Shen Xiyan likes history.

But Chen Jinchuan still smiled self-deprecatingly, "I didn't ask this, I just wanted to ask, didn't you say that you would take the finance exam?" Why did you change your major after being admitted? ”

"Isn't that because you majored in finance?" Shen Xiyan blurted out, consciously lost his words, and quickly shut up again.

Chen Jinchuan has a trace of puzzlement, and a trace of happiness, why is it because of me?

Shen Xiyan began to make up for himself, and he would never admit that he was admitted to this major because he liked Chen Jinchuan and wanted to be admitted to this major because he wanted to have a school, a department, and the best class with him. "Yes, because of you, you were so good at that time, I thought that if I studied the same major as you, I would be as good as you."

This reason is also said in the past, after all, seeing excellent people, wanting to become such a person is a very correct psychological behavior.

But Chen Jinchuan's face was a little unsightly, "But I was admitted to the finance department because of you." ”

Shen Xiyan was taken aback, "Why is it because of me?" Shen Xiyan thought hard for a while, he didn't seem to have told Chen Jinchuan that he must be admitted to the Department of Finance!

Chen Jinchuan was a little anxious, "Have you forgotten?" At the beginning of the second semester of the third year of high school, you and your friend were chatting, and I passed by you and asked, I asked you what major you were taking, and you said that you were going to be admitted to the Department of Finance. When the teacher asked me what major I was going to take, I said finance. ”

Shen Xi said in her heart, how could she remember such a trivial matter, her current memory of the third year of high school is the unfinished test papers, the teacher's non-stop lectures, and the 100-day pledge meeting.

She thought about it well in the past few days, Chen Jinchuan seemed to have given herself a bouquet of flowers at the pledge meeting, and as for what kind of flowers it was, she was about to forget.

It turned out that the first time I received flowers, it was given by Chen Jinchuan.

But looking at Chen Jinchuan's somewhat anxious face, Shen Xiyan felt that if he said the next words, Chen Jinchuan would not be anxious, but it was unknown what kind of expression would appear. "Actually, I wanted to take the finance department at that time, and it was really because of you, no, because of your whole family."

"What does this have to do with my family?" This thing is really more and more outrageous, does the college entrance examination eight years ago still have something to do with his parents?

Shen Xiyan stood in the long corridor of the Forbidden City, looking into the distance, this road was like life, and it was still a door if you continued to walk behind a door. She thought back to her eighteen years old, her longing for the boy she liked, her disgust for her dull and bitter youth, and thinking about when she could grow up at once, and she had to do a lot of things.

But now eight years have passed, and Shen Xiyan is no longer the Shen Xiyan of the past, as if everything can be said.

"Do you remember the time when Professor Sun changed to a new car in the first semester of his junior year of high school?"

Chen Jinchuan's memory has always been good, "Remember, my mother came to pick me up and take me for a ride." "Isn't that a very common thing?

But that's the difference between the two. Just two days ago, Shen Xiyan couldn't sleep in the middle of the night studying, and when he went out of the living room to get some snacks to eat, he accidentally heard a conversation between his parents.

Late that night, Shen Xiyan knew that his mother was sick and needed a sum of money, although this disease was not a serious illness, it was also an occupational disease. It's not that the Shen family can't afford the money for medical treatment, but Shen's mother just thinks it's expensive.

"You say, this man, what is not sick, nothing is not rich, right. If I didn't have this disease, I would have saved this money, and when the time came to buy a house for Yanyan, I could buy two more square meters. ”

"It doesn't take much to be reimbursed by medical insurance, and then you can earn it when the money is gone, so you can see a doctor first." Father Shen comforted.

"By the way, don't talk about this, that kid doesn't look at his appearance, but in fact, he is very careful in his heart, and if he knows, he will have to worry."

"Yes, yes. It's not much of a disease, so she worries with Bai. I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow, and you'll be in the hospital for a few days. ”

"Yes, let's sum up how much money the family has." Shen Mu said.

That night, Shen Xiyan didn't eat a snack.
