Nanjiang City is near the river and the sea, and the summer and autumn are long and rainy.

In October, the day of the beginning of autumn, the rain comes with the cooling, and the whole city has rain for about half a month, and the sky is always gloomy.

An undeveloped area on the outskirts of the city, where the largest cemetery in the city was built.

As soon as a light rain stopped in the morning, the moist water vapor gradually enveloped the whole world, and the dark clouds gradually blurred in the sky like a pen of boiling water.

The world seems to be much darker than usual.

There are significantly fewer vehicles on highways in undeveloped areas than in other areas.

Occasionally, however, heavy tires will make a splash through a small pond.

The interior of the car, which is completely blocked from outside sound by the car glass, is surprisingly quiet.

Ren in the driver's seat then stared at the driveway, skillfully turned the steering wheel, and turned before the navigation prompt, driving into the parking lot of the cemetery.

After hearing the sound of the car gradually driving in, Lu Zhouyue, who was leaning on the side of his car, looked up with his mobile phone, and after seeing the license plate number, he stretched out his hand to signal.

"Why did you come?" She walked up slowly, the sound of her mid-heel boots on the concrete floor was particularly crisp.

The window of the Cayenne was slowly pressed, and Ren in the car replied with an indifferent expression while parking the car in his position: "It's raining, and there is a car accident on the road, so I took a detour." ”

"Oh, that's it." Lu Zhouyue replied, "Did you buy flowers?" ”

"Bought it, Sunflower." Ren's gaze subconsciously looked at the bouquet on the passenger seat that was particularly delicately packaged by the florist.

The brightly colored sunflowers are in full bloom and full of vitality, which is really out of place in comparison with the gloomy and gloomy days of October.

Lu Zhouyue nodded: "Then let's go, if you go over early, you can stay longer and talk more." ”

Ren then got out of the car, went around to the side and held the bouquet firmly in his hand, and walked slowly to the cemetery with Lu Zhouyue.

The road to the destination has remained the same for more than ten years, but the surrounding scenery occasionally changes.

Every time he came here, Ren would always deliberately slow down his pace, stop and go, observe everything around him, and then silently remember it in his heart.

Lu Zhouyue didn't urge, just followed quietly.

After walking for more than twenty minutes, the two stopped in front of the familiar tombstone.

Above the tombstone is a black-and-white photograph, in which the woman looks like a typical Westerner, with deep eyebrows and neat eyes, mature and beautiful, and a smile with a bit of oriental gentleness.

Further down is the woman's name, Susan.

Ren's gaze swept over everything softly, and said softly: "Mother, I haven't seen you for a long time, I came to see you." ”

The autumn wind gradually rose, and the rustle of the leaves sounded, as if in response, and it was just as gentle.

Lu Zhouyue stood aside and did not speak, just watched in silence.

Looking at the photo on the tombstone, she suddenly recalled some small things from her childhood.

At that time, she was still a child who had just entered elementary school, and because she was playful and because she only had one friend, she would always go to Ren's house as a guest.

Every time she went, Ren's mother would always welcome her in Chinese, which she was not fluent in, then bake her chocolate chip cookies to eat, and gently learn pinyin writing with her.

She is a woman with an exotic appearance, but her temperament is as warm as water.

When he was young, because he was a model, he met Ren Qiwen, Ren Sui's father, in Vanity Fair, and under the fierce pursuit of Ren Qiwen, who has always been greedy for beauty, he believed the other party and chose to quit the circle to have children, and crossed the ocean to Nanjiang City.

Such a great choice did not bring her a happy married life, but pushed herself into the abyss.

The betrayal before marriage, the endless quarrels after marriage and witnessing her husband's cheating all combined to completely crush this pregnant woman, and after giving birth to her only son, she was replaced by severe postpartum depression.

But even so, she has never been ruthless to abandon her son and fly away.

She chose to take on the responsibility of raising her alone, both as a mother and as a father, little by little, to raise her son.

Then, because of the divorce coercion of her unfaithful husband and the outbreak of depression that had accumulated for a long time, she chose to end her life in the bathroom of her own home.

The day she left, the sky was as gloomy and gray as it is today.

For ten years, every year on this day, her son would come to see her with a bouquet of sunflowers, which she loved most from his youth.

"It's going to rain again, I'll go to the car and get an umbrella." Lu Zhouyue said.

Ren didn't look back: "Okay." ”

After speaking, Lu Zhouyue turned around and left, politely vacating a place for the mother and son to speak.

Turning around and disappearing around the corner, she subconsciously glanced back at Ren's direction.

Although she couldn't hear the specific content, seeing that Ren Sui's mouth was always moving, and her soft expression, she could probably guess that Ren Sui was talking to her mother.

When walking briskly back to the parking lot of the cemetery, Lu Zhouyue cleverly noticed that something was wrong, and after taking the two umbrellas from his car, he did not return to find Ren Sui.

Instead, he walked to another Bentley parked in the cemetery parking lot.

She knocked on the window in the back seat of the Bentley.

After the window was slowly lowered, the people sitting in the car did not show her surprised expression.

"Brother Zhuo Yuan, why did you come to here?" Lu Zhouyue took the initiative to ask.

Ren Zhuoyuan in the car said calmly: "Is it still there?" ”

Lu Zhouyue nodded: "I estimate that in another hour and a half, he will almost go back." ”

"Brother Zhuo Yuan, are you also here to give flowers to Aunt Susan?" Lu Zhouyue asked, and the afterglow had already caught a glimpse of a bright yellow behind the other party.

Ren Zhuoyuan in the car didn't seem to intend to hide it, and nodded: "Well, I'll go when I leave, so as not to make him feel bad." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhouyue didn't plan to persuade him, but just asked again: "After Grandpa Ren's birthday banquet ended, he wasn't beaten, right?" ”

In his words, he was clearly referring to Ren Sui.

Ren Zhuoyuan: "No, but the two quarreled again, grandpa let go, and he won't force you and Ren to marry in the future." ”

Lu Zhouyue's face was pleasant, and she was completely relieved: "Really?!" That's great! ”

"Well, don't worry."

After getting an affirmative answer, Lu Zhouyue's heart that had been hanging high since returning to China finally let go, and said in a brisk tone: "Then I'll go to Ren Sui first, Brother Zhuo Yuan, you can wait a while." ”

"Go ahead."

The conversation ended, and the window went up again.

The autumn rain began to fall in a hurry.

Lu Zhouyue held up the umbrella and hurried to Ren Sui's side.

The water vapor was so thick that every road in the cemetery was filled with mist that could not be dispersed.

In the depths of the cemetery, at a glance, there is a gray gray stone tablet, and the bright yellow that belongs to the sunflower is particularly eye-catching.

In front of the tombstone, Ren then whispered in fluent English-

"Mother, it's been ten years, I wonder if you're having a good time over there now?"

"Did you know that the game I'm making is about to be released to everyone?"

"Just as you encouraged as a child, your son can finally become a great person who brings joy to others."

"Oh yes, do you remember the girl I told you about a few years ago, and I'm going to take her a step further."

Second Update.
