Chapter 24: Just want to make sure you're okay

Lu Rifeng didn't answer, with a questioning and sharp, "What are you asking for?" โ€

Unconsciously recalled that day Mu Feiyu asked him about the world, did he not know what happened?

Sikong didn't pay attention to Lu Rifeng's unkind tone, "Why didn't she come to class?" โ€

Lu Rifeng squinted his eyes, took two steps forward, and warned, "Sikong, I know that you have a lot of background, but it's best not to mess with Aqing, otherwise I won't let you go no matter who you are, and her business has nothing to do with you." โ€

After speaking, Lu Rifeng turned around and left, and Chen Chen and the others followed.

Sikong was not angry, he just felt that he had done something stupid, why should he ask Lu Rifeng, even if he asked the rest of the class, they would not tell him, they cared about Mu Xiangqing very much.

Sikong Jue hooked the corners of his mouth, and then walked out of the classroom, but in an instant, a light flashed in his mind, and he thought of it.

Originally going to the cafeteria, Sikong Jue turned back to his seat to pack his things, took his backpack downstairs and walked in the direction of the office.

When Lu Rifeng arrived at the cafeteria, he took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Mu Xiangqing, but he didn't dial it when he thought of what day it was.

Cui Ruxuan and Hong Antong came, and Chen Chen and the others consciously sat down at another table.

Cui Ruxuan asked, "Do you want to find Xiang Qing after school?" โ€

Hong Antong said, "She won't go home until the evening, and it's useless for anyone to look for her." โ€

"I agree with An Tong's words, forget it, she would rather hide quietly by herself today." Lu Rifeng sighed.

Cui Ruxuan pursed her lips, "I thought that Brother Yu and Brother Jun would be happier when they came back to accompany her, and they wouldn't hide this year." โ€

Hong Antong couldn't hide a trace of hurt in his eyes, "There are some things and some people that cannot be replaced by everything." โ€

She also misses her gentle and talented aunt.

She was so envious of her cousin that she had such a perfect mother, but an accident changed everything.

Cui Ruxuan also noticed that Hong Antong was depressed, and reached out to pat her shoulder.

Sikong Jue left Deyuan, stopped a car on the side of the road, and after getting into the car, he said, "Trouble to Wuling Mountain." โ€

Sikong Jue turned on his phone, and the screen was the information of the previous investigation of Mu Xiangqing.

He just suddenly remembered that today was Mu Xiangqing's mother Mu Wanying's jealousy, so Mu Xiangqing probably went to see her mother.

Sikong Jue didn't know why he was looking for Mu Xiangqing, but when he reacted, he had already come to look for it, since he had done it, he would continue, maybe if he found Mu Xiangqing, he would be able to find the reason why he was looking for her.

For more than an hour, Sikong got off the bus.

The sun is still fierce just after the summer afternoon, but here the terrain is higher and the wind is sharper.

Sikong Jue searched for a while and found Mu Xiangqing who was nestled next to a tombstone, wearing a black dress, she sat directly on the ground, with a lot of food next to her, I don't know what she was talking about.

Although she only saw the side face, Sikong Jue could still see the sadness and tears on her face.

Sikong didn't step forward, but walked under a tree and waited.

Although the moment he found Mu Xiangqing, why did his heart come to her for an answer, Sikong could be sure that his heart was stable.

After more than ten minutes, Zhong Nanming also came, not in a suit and leather shoes as usual, but in casual clothes.

Although he looks younger, it is difficult to hide the sadness he exudes.

Zhong Nanming was not surprised to see his daughter, approached, squatted down, put down the basket in his hand, looked at the photo on the tombstone with gentle eyes, and pulled a light smile at the corner of his mouth, "Wanying, I'm here and made your favorite tomato beef noodles." โ€

Mu Xiangqing covered his eyelashes, blocked the sadness and pain inside, stood up, sat too far, his feet were a little numb, and walked away with ease.

Zhong Nanming didn't stop Mu Xiangqing, he wanted to be alone with his wife for a while, he took out the noodles from the basket, "It's the same every year, you may be tired of it." โ€

Zhong Nanming stretched out his hand to caress the photo, he didn't dare to use force, as if he was afraid of hurting her, his eyes were moist, and his heart was like a knife, "Wanying, I'm sorry, I know you don't like to hear people say this sentence the most, saying this sentence is the most useless sentence, but I'm also..."

Speaking of this, Zhong Nanming choked so much that he couldn't speak, tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, his head was lowered, and tears fell down his face.

Sikong Jue saw Mu Xiangqing come out before he spoke, "Mu Xiangqing." โ€

Suddenly hearing someone calling herself, Mu Xiangqing was still immersed in her own thoughts, and her reaction was slow to look up before she looked up, and when she saw the other party, she was slightly surprised, "Sikong, why are you here?" โ€

She didn't even have time to put her emotions away.

Seeing that the eyes that had always been cold and calm in the past were full of sadness and red blood at this time, Sikong's heart suddenly burst, "You didn't go to school." โ€

"So you're coming to me?"

"Hmm."

"Why?" Mu Xiangqing stared at his eyes under the black-rimmed glasses, and his tone had an eagerness that he didn't have.

Sikong hooked his lips, "Just want to make sure you're okay." โ€

This sentence set off huge waves in Mu Xiangqing's heart lake.

She doesn't want to see anyone else every year today, even if Lu Rifeng and them, they pity her and feel sorry for her, but what she wants most is not these.

Sikong's words went straight to the hollow place in her heart.

She only needed to be alone and quietly with her, so that she could imagine that her mother had sent her to listen.

Sikong Jue took out a bottle of milk from his backpack and said, "Let's go." โ€

Sideways, inviting gestures.

Mu Xiangqing took the milk, took the lead and walked forward, opening the milk and drinking.

The sweet taste of the mouth continues to the heart, and it is warmer when it is basked in the warm sun.

Sikong followed her quietly.

There are two shadows one in front of the other on the ground, which is inexplicably longing.

Sikong Jue looked back in both directions, and only after making sure that there was no danger did he withdraw his gaze and hear Mu Xiangqing speak.

"When I was a child, the place I was most afraid of coming to was the cemetery, which was gloomy, but my mother said that this is a place where people are not afraid, and that there are the best wishes of all the deceased to the living."

"After my mom died, I came to this place most often, when I was unhappy and needed someone to listen to me, over time I got used to it, I knew that my grandfather was worried about me, but I just couldn't change it."

"Am I sick?"

โ€œยทยทยทโ€

I don't know how long I walked, Mu Xiangqing also said it for so long, and her saliva was dry.

Sikong Jue listened carefully to everything Mu Xiangqing said, and in the end he didn't know where to go, and Mu Xiangqing didn't want to go before stopping.

Sikong Jue walked up to her, "I haven't eaten yet, together?" โ€

Mu Xiangqing looked sideways at Sven's harmless face and nodded.

His skin is delicate, I'm afraid it's even better than hers.

His facial features are very compatible, and he will look amazing without glasses.

Thinking of this, Mu Xiangqing's right hand felt a little itchy and raised it slightly, but halfway through, her reason returned and put it down.

Sikong was definitely contacting the car, and he didn't pay attention to Mu Xiangqing's look at him and his strangeness.

"What do you want to eat?"

Mu Xiangqing tilted his head and thought for a while, "Dumplings, the kind that is freshly made." โ€

Dumplings are food eaten by a family reunion, and she can't have a family reunion, but she wants to eat them.

After talking so much to Sikong Jue, the feeling of tightness in her chest dissipated a lot.

"Okay." Sikong Jue quickly made an appointment for a car, "Two minutes." โ€

After getting out of the car, Mu Xiangqing looked around and followed Sikong Jue into an intersection.

Sikong Jue deliberately stopped, turned around and asked, "Haven't been here?" โ€

"Nope." Mu Xiangqing likes to go to the night market, but rarely comes to the old city.

There were quite a few people along the way, all of them were some elderly uncles and aunts, their eyes were curious, but there was no malice.

Sikong Jue said, "I often come with my grandparents, they like to eat dumplings, that." โ€

Mu Xiangqing looked at the place where Sikong Jue raised his finger.

There are no signs, but there is a long queue, even if it is afternoon, and the thick smell of pork rib soup wafts through the air, which makes people appetite.

"It's fragrant."

Seeing that the corners of Mu Xiangqing's mouth were slightly hooked, his eyes were slightly curved, and Sikong Jue also bent the corners of his mouth, "This couple is in their sixties, they have been making dumplings here for more than 30 years, raising their children, and they are all out, they can not work so hard, but they are reluctant to neighbors and regular customers, and they say that they can't do it until they can't do it." โ€

Mu Xiangqing listened and followed Sikong Jue to line up.

That couple was fast.

Soon it was Sikong Jue's turn and Mu Xiangqing's turn, and the old woman recognized Sikong Jue at a glance, and laughed and teased, "Young man, didn't you come with your grandparents this year, girlfriend?" What a beautiful girl. โ€

"Mother-in-law, it's my classmate, it's fine as usual, but change to two bowls."

The old woman said enthusiastically, "Okay, find your own seat." โ€

Sikong Jue took Mu Xiangqing to the corner and sat down.

Mu Xiangqing suddenly said, "Most people are packing. โ€

"Well, let's go home and eat together."

Mu Xiangqing's heart was sour when she heard this, and she hurriedly lowered her curly eyelashes to block the sadness and envy that rose in her eyes.

Seeing this, Sikong Jue reacted and said that Mu Xiangqing's sadness was gone, and he didn't comfort her, and accompanied her quietly.

It wasn't until the old woman brought the dumplings that the silence was broken.

"The dumplings are here, eat them while they're hot."

Sikong Jue smiled, "Thank you." โ€

Mu Xiangqing also collected her emotions, raised her head, the hot fragrance aroused her taste buds and appetite, and picked up the spoon.

"Take a sip of soup first."

Mu Xiangqing took a sip of soup first according to Si Kong's words, and was amazed, "It's very fresh." โ€

"Their soup is freshly boiled in the morning, and then try the dumplings."

Mu Xiangqing lightly bit half of it, raised his head and smiled, "It's so fresh, it's delicious." โ€

That kind of sincere smile made Mu Xiangqing's whole person bright, she was already delicate and charming, but she was used to camouflage with indifference and alienation, and a smile fell into the city, like a snow lotus on a snowy mountain, retreating coldly, revealing the most beautiful flowers, gorgeous and dazzling.

This smile deeply touched Sikong's heartstrings, his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, and his hand holding the spoon tightened.

Mu Xiangqing didn't notice the change, lowered his head and continued to eat dumplings.

It took a while for Sikong to calm down the accelerated heartbeat and eat the dumplings, and I felt that today's dumplings were particularly delicious.

After eating the dumplings, Sikong Jue and Mu Xiangqing did not leave immediately.
