On the day of returning to the city, the weather was exceptionally good, and there was already a refreshing taste of autumn.

Lincheng is actually not far from Tianjing, it only takes an hour and a half to get there by driving the highway, before leaving, I asked Yan Shen how long it will take to go back, because I have started school here, I need to ask for leave.

Yan Shen spared words on the phone, and only answered me with two words - "two days."

I went to ask the counselor for a leave of absence, just in case I asked for three days.

The departure time was in the evening, Yan Shen drove to pick me up at the gate of the Academy of Fine Arts, and the car shuttled on the winding road of the old city near the Academy of Fine Arts, and the trees on both sides of the road were mottled by the street lights.

I glanced at Yan Shen who was driving, his side face was hidden in the shadows of the obscure trees outside the car, and I couldn't see his expression clearly.

The atmosphere in the car was very cold, Yan Shen didn't speak, only answered two phone calls halfway, I could hear that one of them was from the eldest lady to Jing Nian, and they didn't say a few words and it was over.

As I drove into the city, I made a few turns and came to a road that I was all too familiar with.

This road used to be the only way for me to go to school from Yan's house, almost every day, and the Jincheng branch where Yan Shen worked at that time was next door to our school.

But he never dropped me off.

Many times his jeep whizzed past the bus I was sitting on, and after I talked to Yan Shen a few times, he was not used to me saying that he wanted to give me away, but after a few days he bought the latest bicycle and came back, telling me that riding a bicycle should be much more free than taking the bus, and the speed would be faster.

I was in high school at the time, but I looked depressedly at the bike he bought me, with black lines on my face.

I'm that old, but still

He doesn't know how to ride a bicycle, Yan Shen knows it.

I held back for more than half a month before I mustered up the courage to block my breath and decided to learn to ride.

One afternoon when I didn't make up classes on the weekend, I pushed the cart in the No. 1 courtyard to get ready, but I didn't expect Yan Shen, who hadn't gone home for many days to go to other provinces to handle cases, suddenly appeared, he was still wearing a uniform, and when he saw me pushing the cart over, he took off his coat, and he was still wearing the white shirt and tilting his head and squinting at me.

As soon as I saw him, I felt even more unhappy, but when I thought about it, he should have come to teach me how to ride, and my mood improved a little bit.

But I still didn't pay much attention to him, but when he came to help me into the car, I still listened to him obediently and honestly. I was helped by him to sit in the car and set off, I thought he would always support and protect me, but I didn't expect to kick out a few times, Yan Shen let go, he turned around and left, and didn't look back at me again.

When I found out, I panicked, and immediately fell straight to the right with my center of gravity, and I screamed loudly. The security guards who were patrolling in the No. 1 courtyard were called, but Yan Shen stood in the shade of a tree not far away, motionless.

My hands and arms were scratched, and my ankles seemed to be twisted, and it hurt so much when I was picked up by the security guards, and I subconsciously called out to my second brother aggrievedly.

But my second brother didn't seem to hear it, standing with his chest hugged by a wood carved clay sculpture, looking at the excitement.

Yan Shouwei's driver, Uncle Qi, didn't know why he came over, he was standing next to Yan Shen and was about to run over to see me, but he was stopped.

I clearly heard Yan Shen say to Uncle Qi in his beautiful voice, "Let her learn by herself, and she will naturally learn it after a few falls."

I remember listening to his words at that time, I forcibly held back the tears that were rolling down immediately, pushed away the security guard who helped me, and rode on my own, and continued to ride crookedly.

But soon I fell again, this time it was even worse, my knees were all torn through my pants, probably Yan Shen gave me the meaning, this time no one came to help me again, I could only hold back my tears and get up by myself, obviously scared to death, but I still rode back on the bike again and again, slowly finding my balance.

The strength on the body came up, and in the end the hands were stiff and insisted on continuing, riding to the bend in the road, but I didn't expect the car to run straight to the side of the Qiang ~ Rose Bush, I panicked and forgot to brake, and crashed directly into the flowers.

Qiang ~ The thorns on the stem of the rose branch can be regarded as enjoyable, not less tied to my flesh, I got up on my own with red eyes, and I was lame

Throwing down the bicycle and walking back by himself, it turned out that the place where Yan Shen was standing had long been empty.

I stood in the middle of the road, I couldn't understand why the second brother was so ruthless, he really didn't worry about me at all, wasn't he afraid that I would break.

In the end, I limped back to get the car out and continue practicing, until it was completely dark, and when my family came out to look for me and went home for dinner, I actually learned in a daze.

I rode back to the door of Yan's house crookedly, looking at the door with a cold face full of anticipation, only Uncle Qi was waiting for me, and that person was nowhere to be seen, as if he had never returned home at all.

I swore in my heart that I would never pay attention to that second brother again, he was not my own brother in the first place, how could he really feel sorry for me, what did I expect.

He that

I love his career, and I often don't go home anyway, and there are not many opportunities for us to meet, so as long as he doesn't take the initiative to come to me in the future, I will definitely not bother him.

My mental journey was actually only a few tens of seconds, and when I followed Uncle Qi into the door, and walked all the way towards my room, I was about to clean up first and then go to eat, but I saw Yan Shen at the door of my room.

At that time, it was already the solar term of late autumn, and it was quite cold as soon as it got dark, but the Yan family set a rule that they would never turn on the air conditioner for heating if it was not winter, so it was also very cold at home.

Especially the room on the first floor where I lived, the door was outside the yard, and it was even colder.

Yan Shen was only wearing a shirt on his body, but he was holding a thick coat in his hand, and when he saw me coming back, he walked towards me with his coat unhurriedly.

Uncle Qi didn't know when he walked away, and there were only two people at the door of the room, Yan Shen and me.

When he raised his hand to touch the blood marks on my cheeks that had been scratched by the roses, my eyes suddenly became hot.

I glared at him angrily and said, "If my brother were here, he wouldn't have left ......me alone," and after that, I pushed open the door and went back to my room.

Yan Shen didn't say anything, followed me into the house, he didn't let me go to the bathroom to tidy up, put the coat on my hand, and handled the wound for me very gently.

Finding that I had broken my foot, he called Uncle Qi and the live-in nurse at home, the nurse was an old man of the Yan family, and when she came in to see that I was not lightly injured, she complained quickly, "On such a cold day, you are willing to fall and freeze."

The nurse said this to Yan Shen.

I only remember that Yan Shen smiled casually when he heard it, and let go of me without any expression on his face

to the side.

After treating the wound, I saw Yan Shen standing at the door of my room and hadn't left, he was smoking outside with Uncle Qi, and I seemed to hear Yan Shen saying to Uncle Qi, "I don't look at her because I can't bear to ...... But she's so big, she should have fallen a few times and fallen a few times, and she has a good memory."

That day, I had insomnia all night, and I was repeatedly counting Yan Shen's words in the bed, and I only remembered what he said in the end.

The bright lights of the car swayed into the car, and my memories were interrupted.

Looking back now, thinking about those beautiful pasts, I have to admit in my heart that Yan Shen's special education method really benefited me a lot from growing up overly doted on by my parents.

Between me and him, and between the Yan family, it would be nice if there was only that.

"Gather your mood, it's almost home." Yan Shen suddenly reminded me.

I looked out the car window, and the intersection where No. 1 Courtyard was located was really in front of me, but Yan Shen had just told me that he was almost home, did he also have amnesia like his father Yan Shouwei, forgetting that it was not my home for a long time.

Yan Shen pulled over to the side of the road and parked the car, entering No. 1 Courtyard has always been only on foot and not by car, so it's time for us to get off here.

I got out of the car and followed Yan Shen and walked in, his pace was very fast, I could only follow silently, and finally when I was about to trot, he suddenly stopped in front.

Yan Shen turned to look at me, "Remind you, when you go in in a while, don't forget what to call me."

I looked up at him, laughed and asked, "What do you call you...... I really

I don't know, what should I call you, just hint."

The corners of Yan Shen's mouth trembled slightly under the cover of night.

"Call me second brother...... In this deal between me and you, you must call me second brother."

I nodded in understanding.

After continuing to walk a few steps forward, I asked Yan Shen behind him, "That kid, how are you now?"

Yan Shen looked back and replied to me in a very soft voice, "If you behave well, you will be able to see that child soon...... I think he looks a lot like you."

I chuckled in my heart, as if someone had spied on my privacy, my legs slowed down a little weakly, and my eyes were nailed straight to Yan Shen's tall and long back.

The location of the Yan family in the No. 1 courtyard is definitely the best, I looked at the tall old locust tree at the gate, it was still a momentum that covered the sky and the sun, I haven't seen it for eight years, and everything seems to have changed here.

When I left, the Yan family ignored me because of Yan Shen's affairs, if it wasn't for Uncle Qi to stop me, I'm afraid I don't know how many beatings I would have to take and how many ugly words I would have to listen to.

Yan Shouwei gave me that slap, I still remember, at that time he said to me in the study, it is better for me to walk far away alive and not let him see it again, otherwise he will not let me go.

Who knows that in just eight years, he has forgotten all of them, and I am still the little girl who looks very similar to my mother in his heart, or the adopted daughter who he plans to take out to marry for the benefit of the marriage.

I shook my head to stop thinking about it further, and the people followed Yan Shen into the gate, and I saw Uncle Qi, who was already full of gray hair, coming towards us.

It turned out that Uncle Qi was still working in the Yan family

。

I stopped, and also called out to Yan Shen, saying that there was still something to confirm with him.

Yan Shen turned around and looked at me, waiting for me to ask.

"What shall I call him later? I don't remember very well over the years, and I forgot how I used to call him, so remind me."

Yan Shen's face was very pale and his eyes were so dark that he couldn't see the bottom.

After a few seconds, he replied, "It's Uncle Yan, you've always called it that."

I nodded, "yes, I thought I kept calling him Daddy......

Yan Shen's face was so light that it hung with a layer of white porcelain glaze, which looked a little scary.

Uncle Qi came over at the right time, he didn't greet me warmly, but I still felt warm in my heart, and I didn't want to worry about Yan Shen anymore, so I followed Uncle Qi to the house.

I'm back again.
