Chapter 144: A Guiding Light
There were a lot of people in the café, Zhang Jiaze looked at them one by one, walked in step by step, walked about twenty steps, and none of these people were.
"Hi-Jiaze-" Hearing this familiar voice, Zhang Jiaze turned his head to look, and in the corner of the sofa by the window, Hua Xingcan was sitting facing him, showing a sweet smile.
"She's changed." I haven't seen her for fifteen years, and at the first glance after saying goodbye, Zhang Jiaze feels that time is like a pig-killing knife, and she is no longer the shy girl she was back then.
Yes, after all, they are already wives and mothers, how can they be compared with fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls?
Her hair was obviously done, and it looked stylish and low-key, and it was still the way he liked it. Especially when I laugh, the corners of my mouth are raised, and my nose is slightly wrinkled, which is the same as before.
When he took a second look, Zhang Jiaze changed his evaluation just now: "She still hasn't changed." ”
She is still so radiant and so radiant.
"When we meet, we laugh and enmity and enmity", all the past has disappeared in a smile at each other.
If it's a wound, why bother to expose it?
"We only talk about the present today, not the past." This is the agreement that Zhang Jiaze gave himself before he sat down.
He was afraid that he would accidentally fall into the torrent of feelings and die with no place to be buried.
"Hey, Xingcan-" Zhang Jiaze smiled at her, said hello, and sat down.
They used to be so familiar, and now they are so strange, so familiar as strangers.
The topic is all over the world, they talk about everything, from the recent domestic and international situation, to the ginger and garlic in the farmers' market, they just don't talk about their past.
From the chat, Zhang Jiaze learned that Hua Xingcan was already the head of the kindergarten, and she was the number one, and after a period of hard work, she had already established herself in the city. The husband works as a civil servant in his hometown county, and basically only comes home once a weekend, and his children study at the best schools in the main city.
"I admire you, still writing." Hua Xingcan said sincerely.
Zhang Jiaze smiled self-deprecatingly: "I have been writing for so many years, and I haven't become popular, besides, what can a person like me do without writing?" ”
Yes, people come and go, the lights are bright, and how many people are immersed in the dreams of their youth?
Hua Xingcan looked at Zhang Jiaze's familiar face, compared with his youth, he was more mature, steady, handsome, and confident, and less youthful and inferior.
It's just that today's mood has changed dramatically compared to 15 years ago.
To this day, they are still able to sit together, look at each other, smile, and talk about their own troubles and concerns, and they both feel that each other is precious.
She looked at Zhang Jiaze fixedly and asked, "Are you going to write it all the time?" ”
Zhang Jiaze smiled and said, "Yes." I won't do anything else in this life, only this hobby. ”
Hua Xingcan smiled: "There are not many people like you anymore. ”
Zhang Jiaze laughed self-deprecatingly: "Yes, there are not many nerds like me anymore. ”
Hua Xingcan smiled, she would suddenly lower her head when she laughed happily, this familiar action made Zhang Jiaze's heart pound, so many years have passed, her little habit has not changed.
At the end of the conversation, Zhang Jiaze poured out his bitterness: how can he convince his wife to have a second child?
When he was young, Hua Xingcan was the guiding light of his life, whatever she said, he would do it, without hesitation, and never flinched.
Today, when he encounters difficulties in his life, involuntarily, he still thinks of her, hoping that she can give ideas to help him get out of the difficulties in life.
After listening to Zhang Jiaze's experience of wanting a second child, Hua Xingcan took a sip of coffee lightly and said slowly:
"I can give you an idea, you might as well try-"
"Oh?" Zhang Jiaze's eyes widened and he looked at her expectantly.
