Chapter 2: First Encounter
"Dear passengers, the train has arrived at Nanchang West Railway Station, please bring your belongings and get off the train."
A familiar prompt on the high-speed train woke up Su Mu from his sleep.
Su Mu woke up, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with a little embarrassment, lifted the suitcase from the shelf in a daze, and joined the mighty queue waiting to get off the car.
Unlike most people, Su Mu didn't arrange for anyone to pick him up. But despite this, he still took the subway several times to reach the bus station leading to his hometown in the city - Qingshan Bus Station.
Like most migrant workers returning from other provinces, everything in the bus stop seemed so familiar to Su Mu's eyes.
In Su Mu's impression, his grandmother would take him to his aunt's house for more than ten days every winter and summer vacation.
At that time, he was still young, and he was always a toy in the hands of children in the city, but he was forced to age and was embarrassed to fight for his cousin, so he could only gently take it from his cousin's hand every time he stayed up until she was sleeping.
Then, like a thief, he cautiously returned to the makeshift bed on the balcony, blinked his eyes and slowly admired it, and got up early the next morning to quietly return the toy before his cousin woke up.
It's just that my aunt's family fell into the middle of the road, and when the house was demolished, I didn't get any benefits, so my grandmother never took him there again, and only on his birthday every year, relatives got together to meet each other in a hurry.
Some people may say that family affection is weak, but the ugly thing that my aunt made about divorce in those years has always been that my grandmother hid it from the people in the village and did not disclose anything, and every time I had a family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, I would pat my uncle on the shoulder and say: "The child is still young, and living a good life is more important than anything else." ”
Su Mu stared at the direction of his aunt's old residence from afar, and countless images of childhood joy flashed in a long sigh.
"Still can't go? Guy from Nanxinxiang, you have to stay for another night if you miss this trip. ”
The female conductor on the bus was still so black and chubby, and there was a smell of selling when she opened her voice, but fortunately, she still remembered that she recognized the teenager who was returning to her hometown in front of her at a glance.
"Coming, coming, you have the best memory after so many years."
Su Mu nodded and walked up neatly, like the respect of the junior when facing the elder.
"You are a kid of the Su family, I remember, I heard that you are not bad outside all these years, how can you go back to your hometown and be embarrassed like a skinny monkey."
The conductor pointed at Su Mu and asked jokingly.
"What else? It's not a good mix! In recent years, a large number of foreign companies have closed down, and there is no reason why a wage earner like me can stay in the big city to survive. ”
Su Mu felt a sense of intimacy greet him. He simply joked.
Immediately afterwards, Su Mu was still used to sitting in the last row by the window, and fell asleep, and told the conductor to get off the bus and wake him up from his sleep.
But the wonderful fate began, just as Su Mu pulled up the curtain and was about to close his eyes, a girl in a thin shirt jumped from under the car, the girl's eyes flickered and dodged, and the white and slender fingers slightly pressed the straw hat on the head to try to hide her face. Then he hurriedly swept around, and squatted next to Su Mu.
"Huh? You are? ”
Su Mu sat up suddenly like a dying patient, and there was an indescribable embarrassment in the face of the strange young man at his feet who was so close to him.
"Don't care who I am, tell the driver to drive first."
The girl lowered her voice, but it did not affect the timbre like a wind chime.
"Drive, isn't this car only going to drive at the end of the day?"
I explained with my hands outstretched.
At this time, several stern and fierce shouts came from outside the car:
"Look for it, if we can't find anyone, we will all be fired by the boss!"
A muscular bodyguard angrily directs his men to search everywhere.
"I'll go, why is this scene so familiar? Is real life more coincidental than the script? ”
Su Mu looked surprised, and faintly felt that something was wrong.
I saw that the next moment the girl pressed Su Mu's shoulder, and Su Mu was suddenly shocked and raised his hands. The girl hurriedly opened the brand-name leather bag and took out her documents, squeezed her eyes and motioned for Su Mu to open the car window.
"Huh?"
Su Mu looked puzzled, thinking that the girl wanted to observe the outside world, so he lifted the curtain.
"Oh, it's a piece of wood, I can't reach the window."
Before Su Mu could react, the girl pressed her knee on Su Mu's thigh and opened the car window, Su Mu, who was under tremendous pressure, couldn't care about admiring the white jade thigh exposed by the girl in front of her, leaving only a twisted mask of pain.
With a "poof", a leather bag worth tens of thousands of dollars was cruelly thrown next to the bus opposite, and one of the black-clothed brothers found out and beckoned his teammates to quickly surround the vehicle.
At this time, in Su Mu's painful voice, the bus to the countryside also started, and the girl lowered her body to avoid the bodyguards who were searching, leaving only Su Mu, who had just recovered and was unclear, to watch the girl lean beside him in such an ambiguous posture.
As soon as Su Mu raised his head, he found that the passengers of the whole car were staring at the two of them with wide eyes, such a ridiculous behavior, and in an instant, the shy teenager who had never been in love blushed and just wanted to find a hole to get into.
"Yo, Su family boy, don't say a word if you have a girlfriend, and you have to wait for the woman to chase after the car, you are not kind to do this."
The corner of the conductor's mouth showed a slight evil smile, as if he recognized the intimacy of the two in front of him.
"But you still have to buy the tickets you should buy, and the big man doesn't lack these three melons and two dates."
When the girl heard this, she began to grope for the banknotes on her body, wanting to take out a few to pay the fare, who had ever wanted to touch it for a long time and didn't find a ten yuan twenty, only the ID card tightly clasped in her hand.
"It's a shame, the bag just now, my money, it's all in the bag."
The girl grabbed the sunshade straw hat on her head and shook her body like a child, pouting her mouth in frustration, and when she came back to her senses, she felt that there were more important things left behind, and then she began to search her whole body, and from time to time she went under the seat to find something, which made Su Mu extremely afraid.
"Wouldn't it? I didn't take my phone off either? I'm hopeless in my head. ”
The girl anxiously lifted the straw hat to reveal the fine burgundy hair, her fingers gently stroked the dust on the hair, and the bursts of fragrance caused Su Mu's heart to pound.
Su Mu subconsciously moved his body closer to the car window, not daring to look directly at the girl in front of him who exuded a charming atmosphere.
"Eh, by the way, hehe, I'll mess with you in the future, stupid goose!"
Su Mu's slight move happened to be discovered by the girl, and the girl's eyes rolled and the corners of her mouth smiled crookedly.
Before Su Mu could react, the girl stood up and slowly approached Su Mu, Su Mu curled up and didn't dare to have anything to do with the woman in front of her, until finally there was no way to retreat, the girl snuggled up and pounced on Su Mu, pulled his arm and said coquettishly:
"Since everyone said so, then I will completely rely on you."
"Hello? Who are you? Although I have been single for more than 20 years and have never been in a relationship, I won't be so bullied, right? I don't want to be a big wrongdoer! ”
At this time, Su Mu dared to speak out, and could only try his best to resist the constant flattery of the girl in front of him.
"Ahem, it's almost there, there are so many people in the car! The girls are like this, why are you still sitting there and not making up the ticket? ”
The conductor said with a dodgy cough.
"No! I really have nothing to do with her, we don't know each other, I don't pick it up. ”
Su Mu, who just wanted to muster up the courage to shout this sentence, was pouted by the girl at the root of his thigh, and his face was flushed obediently to make up the fare.
In the time that followed, the girl looked at Su Mu pitifully as if she was begging to be taken in, Su Mu pulled up the curtain and fell on it and pretended to sleep to escape, but her heart was constantly struggling:
"Su Mu, are you still human? The girls are like this, the money and mobile phones are gone, can you bear to see people living on the streets? ”
"Su Mu, a man should be ruthless and forget how she tricked you just now? Why should you take care of her and leave her to fend for herself? ”
Just as the good and evil in Su Mu's heart began to struggle, a loud voice from the conductor came:
"The Su family village has arrived, and the Su family kid can get off."
Su Mu slowly squeezed out of the girl's soft body, dragged the heavy suitcase, slowly walked to the door of the car under the girl's tearful eyes, took a deep breath and jumped out of the car without looking back, leaving the girl looking at everything in the car in despair, leaning against the window and crying.
"Wait, the girl by the window, won't you get out of the car when you get to the place?"
Su Mu grabbed the driver's pole with one hand and climbed up again, pretending to be serious and looking at the heartbroken girl behind him and shouted.
"It's me? Do you really want to? ”
The girl gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, pointed to herself and said incredulously, hurriedly cleaned up and took a big hug towards Su Mu.
"Is that okay?"
Su Mu was stunned and subconsciously let go of the girl's embrace and led her on the road back to the village.
