After leaving Tang Siqian's house, I sent Yingqiu downstairs to her house and watched her go upstairs before I left.

Along the way, the past constantly invaded my brain, trying to take me back to the abyss where I didn't see the light back then, but now I was no longer as hopeless as I was back then, I turned around and went to the building where Yingqiu lived, which was the direction where I should run with all my might. I'm not going to let it happen again, absolutely not.

......

"I'm back." I opened the door and looked at the scene in front of me, my grandmother and dad hadn't come back yet, and I had settled the dinner by myself.

I took out the only remaining ingredients from the refrigerator, and then went to cook for a long time, saying that it was so, in fact, there was no one at home and I was too lazy to cook any dishes, so I simply cooked a bowl of noodles with toppings and it was done.

After dinner, I sat at my desk, and after a relaxing day today, it was time for me to look at my homework. I turned on the desk lamp and flipped out the notepad, and there was still a lot of homework for the National Day. I took out my homework and put it in front of me, and then I went back to bed and started playing with my phone.

After spending more than an hour like this, I received a message from Yingqiu.

[Yingqiu: Siqian and I are going to take her sister to your community to play, will you come down? 】

[Me: She has a sister? Why didn't I see it during the day? 】

[Yingqiu: During the day, her parents took her out to play. 】

[Me: Okay, I'll come down now, where are you?] 】

[Yingqiu: Slide this side. 】

After confirming the location with her, I cleaned up as quickly as I could, said to my family who had already arrived home, and went out.

The location of the slide is not far from my building, almost downstairs, and I can walk two steps to get there. And at this moment, when I was almost there, I remembered that something seemed to be wrong, didn't it just rain today, and this open-air slide can be played? I'm a little confused.

Before I could think about it, I was already on the side of the slide. The three girls were on the swing next to her, and Tang Siqian was pushing the swing for a little girl who was five or six years old, which should be her sister.

Yingqiu sat on the side and sat on the swing with her feet dangling, and I had a plan when I saw this scene. I snuck up behind her from the side, and Tang Siqian saw me, but didn't break me after I made a boo gesture.

Seeing Yingqiu grasping the chain linking the swing with both hands, looking ahead and not knowing what she was thinking, I silently hugged her from behind her (I wouldn't suddenly push her from behind, how dangerous). She was obviously scared at first, but then she calmed down when she realized it was me, she took my hand, and then took it in front of her and kissed it.

"Oh~" Tang Siqian, who had been watching us from the side, made a "strange" sound, and the sister in front of her was also thinking about the crooked and crooked us, who was a little unclear.

Then they briefly introduced me to my little sister, and I went to a cleaner place with Yingqiu and I to sit on the side.

"It's going to be winter, I'm going to knit you a scarf." She said.

"Why did you suddenly remember to knit me a scarf?" I'm a little confused.

"So you'll be able to think of me often." She slowly leaned her head on my shoulder and said to me.

"Even without a scarf, I'll always think about you."

She seemed even happier to hear me say this, and turned around and hugged me and leaned into my arms, and I raised my hand to take her into my arms.

When I looked up, there were basically no stars in the sky of Shanghai at this time, and only one or two could be seen when I was lucky. Yingqiu and I didn't say anything, just sat leaning against each other and enjoying a moment of peace.

It didn't take long for Tang Siqian to bring her sister to us, saying that this child felt a little tired of swinging.

"Why don't we hide and seek, and you two will catch us and hide." Yingqiu proposed on the side.

"Yes, yes." My sister immediately agreed, without a hint of hesitation.

"Then we're going to open the collection, count to thirty and come back to us." Without waiting for Tang Siqian and I on the side to speak, they were the masters. And looking at her smile, I feel that there is a "trick" in it.

After my sister agreed, I didn't even start counting, Yingqiu grabbed my hand and ran with me, the goal was very clear, a building not far away. We sat in the fire escape of that building, with a door as a cover and an elevator on the side, so even if we sat here, it wouldn't get anyone up and down.

The space behind me was incomparably spacious, and we were crammed together on the same staircase, and the sudden violent movement just now made my heart beat still not completely stable, and our slightly heavy breathing was extremely clear in this silent space where no one was around.

Looking at this situation, I finally knew why she brought up hide and seek.

"My little fool is still a little clever." I said to her.

"What? Don't you like it? She brought her face close to mine, and I could even feel her breath as she spoke.

"I like it." As I spoke, I stepped forward to embrace her, and at the same time aimed at the warmth that turned our distance into a negative number. It lasted like this for a minute, and each other's breathing was completely disrupted, and the world in front of them turned into red and pink.

We sat next to each other, enjoying each other's time, but pitiful for our sister who was looking for us under the moonlit night. After a while, a phone call came to Yingqiu's phone.

"Hello? Where are you? Come out on, really. A female voice rang out, apparently a certain "poor" girl with her sister who had given up looking for us.

"Okay, then we're out, you guys just wait for us at the slide."

"Okay."

Hearing the other party's reply, Yingqiu put down her phone and hugged me, and I stroked her back as usual.

"It's time for us to go back." I patted her gently.

"Well, go find them." She slipped out of my arms and sat up straight.

I stood up, turned my head and handed a hand to Yingqiu for her to pull her up from the cold tile.

"Let's go!"

......

When we returned to the place where we said goodbye, Tang Siqian took her sister's hand and asked with a look of resentment when she saw us: "Where did you two run away just now?" ”

"It's the building next door." Yingqiu and I spoke in unison.

She covered her face, and her sister, who was holding her, looked at us very well-behaved.

"Anyway, there's still some time, let's take a walk." I proposed.

"It's okay, we can't stand it if we keep playing like you." Apparently someone has been groomed to the point that they don't want to deal with us, although we don't seem to be doing well, probably?

The moon stars were scarce, Xiao Tang took her sister to walk in front, watching the child bouncing around, and then looking at the girl next to me, for a while I began to fantasize that we will have a child in the future, that is really a very long time ago.

"The day after tomorrow, let's go to MCC Xiangteng for a walk, it's not far anyway."

"Okay, but why not tomorrow?" I really don't want to be separated from her for a day.

"Tomorrow I have to make up classes during the day, and I don't have a car at night."

"Okay, I'm willing to accompany you wherever you want to go anyway, after all, I'm a big idler." Suddenly, my bad thoughts kicked, "But I'm going to get paid." ”

"I'm all yours, what else do you want?" Seeing her cute expression of pouting, I am really extremely satisfied!

"Kiss me." I said this somewhat crooked sentence with a sly face.

Even Yingqiu on the side was stunned when she heard it, maybe she didn't expect that the thickness of my face would improve so quickly in just one month. When she came back to her senses, she immediately burst out laughing, and I leaned slightly to her, and she stood on tiptoe and kissed me on the face in relief.

"Okay, the deposit is collected, and I will receive the official payment when I go the day after tomorrow!"

"I'll promise you." In the face of my child-like behavior, she agreed to my request like an old mother.

"It's time, it's time for us to go back!" Tang Siqian, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and shouted to Yingqiu beside me.

"Then baby, I'm going home, it's not too early." Holding her hand, even if I am reluctant to let go at this moment, I also believe that in the near future, maybe five years from university, or ten years from now, when we enter the society, we will return to our home together.

After I sent them to the gate of the community, Yingqiu drove me home, so I had to watch them go away in three steps and one turn, and then set foot on the way home alone.

"What are you going to do tomorrow?"

"Let's find a dog thing to play games."
