Chapter 2 Sadly

It may be that there is no business in the store at this time, so the boss is very free, and as soon as the two of them are seated, he walks over with the simple menu and puts it on the table: "What to eat?" ”

Huo Yan only glanced at the menu: "Let's have a bowl of family photos." ”

"So do I." Ning Shuyi didn't know what was delicious in this shop, since Huo Yan brought him here, it shouldn't be wrong to follow him.

It didn't take long for the wontons to be delivered, the bowls were huge, and the ravioli were also very large.

The reason why this wonton is called "family portrait" is because the filling of each wonton is different, and this bowl seems to have all the flavors of wonton in this store, and there is one for each filling.

Ning Shuyi couldn't eat most of the bowl, this is probably the most comfortable and down-to-earth meal she has eaten in recent times.

Huo Yan has been in a state of eating without saying a word since he sat down and ordered, eating very quickly, like a whirlwind, and the speed made Ning Shuyi can't help but wonder if he swallowed the wontons whole into his stomach, and he didn't taste the stuffing inside at all.

When Ning Shuyi finished eating most of her bowl, there was already an empty bowl in front of Huo Yan, he sat there, quietly watching Ning Shuyi eat, and when he saw her pushing the bowl open, he asked, "Full?" ”

Ning Shuyi nodded: "Have you eaten for a long time?" ”

Huo Yan nodded, asked Ning Shuyi with his eyes if he was going to leave, and the two of them got up and went to settle the bill.

"Fortunately, you are eating with me, if you eat with Ren Yaya, she will eat a meal enough for you to doze off after eating!" Walking out of the wonton shop, Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan were joking.

Huo Yan didn't say anything, Ning Shuyi looked at his slightly distracted expression, and then looked at the time: "Let's go, let's go and change the medicine for you first!" ”

Huo Yan didn't refuse this proposal, but he didn't say anything during the whole process.

On weekdays, he is also a person who does not talk much, but today he seems to be extraordinarily silent.

Ning Shuyi pretended not to notice, everything was as usual, and accompanied Huo Yan to change the medicine, and it was also past the evening rush hour, and the two of them took the car home, there were not many people in the car, and there was no need to worry about Huo Yan's wound being squeezed.

When he arrived at a place almost two stops away from Ning Shuyi's house, Huo Yan gently touched her with his elbow: "Let's get off at this stop and take a walk." ”

"Good!" Ning Shuyi did not raise any objections, and the two of them got off the train two stops in advance and walked back slowly along the side of the road.

After walking out for a while, Huo Yan suddenly opened his mouth: "I haven't dared to go to that store for many years!" ”

"Then why did you want to take me there today?" Ning Shuyi saw that he was willing to speak, so he simply didn't twist, and directly threw out the doubts in his heart.

"I want to untie the knot in my heart and pull you to help me strengthen my courage." Huo Yan used an extraordinarily serious tone and expression to say this kind of thing that would make anyone who listens to it feel that it is ridicule and joke.

"How's that? Have I given you courage? Is the knot untied? Ning Shuyi didn't think he was joking, and looked at him seriously.

"Undone, thank you." Huo Yan nodded.

When I arrived in the community, there was no chill at night, and Ning Shuyi pointed to the pavilion downstairs: "Do you want to sit downstairs for a while before going up?"

I'm a very honest person, and your actions today make me feel very curious, but if you don't want to say it, I promise to control my curiosity and never ask a word! ”

"Sit down for a while." Huo Yan was amused by Ning Shuyi's candid attitude, although the smile was very faint, it could be regarded as adding a little color to his dim face.

The two of them sat down in the pavilion, Huo Yan looked up at the lights lit up by each house in front of him, and those lights were reflected in his eyes, which seemed to flicker a little: "The person I met in the hospital before was my ex-adoptive mother. ”

Ning Shuyi was stunned for a moment: "I've heard of my ex-girlfriend, and it's the first time I've heard someone say 'ex-adoptive mother'." ”

"I don't have an ex-girlfriend." Huo Yan listened to her words and shook his head.

"Is that the point?" Ning Shuyi couldn't cry or laugh, and at the same time, Huo Yan's name for that woman made Ning Shuyi have a not very good guess: "The point is, what does the former adoptive mother mean?" Before you...... Adopted by her and then abandoned? ”

"It's not abandoned, it's 'returned'." The corners of Huo Yan's mouth moved, revealing a bitter smile, "After all, I have been abandoned once since I was born, and if I am abandoned twice, then this life will be too miserable." ”

Ning Shuyi didn't answer, this was the first time Huo Yan was willing to talk about the past in front of her, she had always guessed that the cause of this guy's personality had a lot to do with her past experiences, but people didn't want to say it, and she wouldn't go to the bottom of it out of curiosity and gossip.

Now Huo Yan is willing to speak, either he can see it, or he can't hold back.

In short, it's always good to be willing to speak.

"I grew up in a welfare home." Huo Yan's character, since he opened his mouth, he would not choose to hesitate and stumble, "Among the children who grew up together at that time, some had accidents at home, and some had family members who died of illness, and they all had to go to the welfare home because they were helpless."

It's just me, who was abandoned at the door of the welfare home when I was a baby, so since I was a child, I have always felt that I may not be so likable compared to other children, so I have low self-esteem.

When I was five or six years old, a couple came to the orphanage to adopt their child, and for some reason, they picked me and took me home. ”

"Are they nice to you?" Ning Shuyi tried to ask, although judging from the previous title of "former adoptive mother", the answer to this question did not seem to be so expected.

"It's okay, it's not particularly affectionate, but it's not bad for me." Huo Yan nodded, and didn't say anything angry because of what happened to him, so he held an objective attitude, "The conditions in their family are more than enough food and clothing, and the money they can provide me with is not much."

What's more, although they adopted me, the relatives and friends in the family always felt that the adopted child was not related by blood, could not be fed, and was not as good as their own birth after all, so the two of them were more polite to me than close.

I lived in that house for about two years, two years quietly, and then my adoptive mother suddenly fell ill, and every day she lay in bed, and her adoptive father had to bring her to the bedside when she ate, and I don't know what happened to her, and during that time the two of them often talked behind closed doors, and sometimes my adoptive mother would cry.

Then one day, my adoptive father said he was going to take me out, and the two of us went out to the mall, and he bought me a set of sportswear and took me to the wonton shop in Fangcai. ”

I wish you all a happy holiday and a reunion!
