Liu Zhixi went out alone and came to a high-end café in the city, which was decorated in a European and American style. The waitress in a crisp suit guided her to her seat, and the soothing and romantic light music lingered in her ears, and bursts of mellow fragrance wafted in.

"Sit." The woman was wearing furs worth 30,000 yuan, and the café was very air-conditioned, and the woman gracefully took off her coat, revealing a slim long skirt underneath. The woman's hand with a diamond ring gently stirred the coffee, and when she saw Liu Zhixi, her movements stopped for three seconds, she quietly looked at Liu Zhixi for a while, and continued to stir the spoon without a trace.

"The purpose of our meeting today, you should be very clear." The woman took a sip of coffee and said with a smile, but that smile was like the sun in July, and the spicy life hurt. Liu Zhixi stared at the woman closely, although she could already see that she was over forty years old, her skin was still smooth and firm, and the two pear vortices on her face when she laughed made people mistakenly think that she was still a girl.

"I, understood." Liu Zhixi's heart twitched, her tears squeezed into her eyes, and she quietly turned her head, not wanting the woman to see it. The woman sneered, laughing a little incredibly, and said in a cheerful tone, "Well, we will take what we need." Here is 5 million, if you leave here, I will find you a bachelor apartment, and after graduating from high school, I will arrange for you to study in the United States. "The woman's hands are beautiful, slender and slender, perfect for playing the piano.

"It's a pity that you don't play the piano with your hands." Liu Zhixi didn't take the check handed by the woman, but looked at the woman's hand seriously and said. The woman's eyes instantly filled with tears, and she immediately covered her panic with a look of contempt, and said in a deep voice: "It's none of your business." Please take the money and disappear forever, never appear in front of me again, and never have any contact with Su Huai again. ”

"Hmph. Why? Mom, tell me why? Liu Zhixi couldn't suppress her emotions anymore and asked in a lost voice. The woman looked at her in surprise, with a little bitterness as a mother in her eyes, "You, you know everything?" ”

"Yes, I know. Although I was very young when you left me, and my memories were vague, I always thought that everything about you was just a dream. But once, Su Huai showed me an old photo from more than ten years ago, and I was sure that everything was not a dream, it was a fact that really happened. Tears fell down Liu Zhixi's cheeks like a clear spring, dripping into the coffee cup in front of her, stirring a few circles of water lines, the coffee was very bitter, without adding a little sugar cube, but what was more bitter than coffee was her heart at the moment.

"Mom, I don't want money, I, I just want you." Liu Zhixi sobbed and said that over the years, all the grievances and sadness have been carved into her heart with the rings of time and become a part of her blood.

"Leave Su Huai." The woman drank it irrefutably. "Isn't it, because he's my half-brother?" Liu Zhixi felt that something was being stripped from her heart. "Yes." The woman no longer avoided Liu Zhixi's gaze, and replied briefly but forcefully. "Mom, let's go find Daddy together, okay? The three of us are happily together. Liu Zhixi cried and pleaded. It's impossible, it's impossible for me to leave the Su family. "The woman was resolute.

"Is it because Su Qian is rich?" Liu Zhixi couldn't suppress her emotions anymore, and erupted like a volcano, she asked hysterically, which attracted the attention of others. "Your dad is dead!" The woman stood up sharply, carried the LV, and walked out angrily. Liu Zhixi felt that the world was spinning, like a little beast about to drown, and wanted to desperately grab the rope to save her life, she chased after her, and regained her senses, she asked in a low voice: "Mom, in the Su family, you are always lukewarm to me, and often make things difficult, are you afraid that I will affect your family?" ”

The woman paused, looked around, everyone was busy with their own things, no one paid too much attention to them, her heart softened slightly, "Wanchen, let's be mother and daughter again in the next life, okay?" Mom owes you everything you will make up for with material things. ”

Liu Zhixi's heart was like sinking into an ice cellar, and she built an igloo for herself like an Eskimo, which could withstand the invasion of the cold. Her hand was silently released, she was desperate, but there was a little expectation, that expectation was like a thorn stuck in her throat, she was hungry and desperately tried to eat it, but she couldn't fill the empty stomach after all.

"Okay, I'll leave you as you wish." There are faint tear stains on her face, which makes her look more of a different temperament.

Liu Zhixi refused the kindness of the Su family, and took a taxi to the high-speed rail station alone, there was nothing in the box, it was very light, she only brought the English version of "Wuthering Heights", a 21-inch ukulele, and the Ferrero candy paper that she had always treasured. She gently smoothed the wrinkled candy wrapper, as if soothing her own mind, and the temperature of the friction between her fingers made her both greedy and reluctant.

Liu Zhixi wore a bright yellow down jacket, the fitting cut highlighted her smooth body line, she wore color-changing glasses, the scorching sunlight on the road just now, made the color of the glasses black, preventing the discomfort caused by ultraviolet rays to the eyes.

Wenli has already helped her contact the school in the provincial capital, and the withdrawal procedures have been completed. Su Qian and Su Huai didn't know the real reason for her leaving, and Wenli claimed that one of her relatives had taken her away and sent her to another place. When he said this, Wenli also pretended to wipe his tears, and said with a little choked: "Alas, this hard-working child finally has a foothold. ”

Leaving this familiar city, Liu Zhixi didn't know where the road would lead in the future. Will the journey ahead be an "endless road"? And the boy buried deep in her memory, the kindness he gave her in the ice and snow many years ago, will become her lifelong warmth and affection.

"It would be nice if we could see him again." She thought silently in her heart, she didn't need to stay with him for a long time, she didn't need to make a promise to the mountains and seas, and she didn't even need a word, a handhold, or a hug, just a glance at each other in the vast sea of people, a knowing smile was enough, then she would have no regrets and ties in this life.

"Last night, the rain was sparse and the wind was sudden, and the heavy sleep did not kill the wine." Liu Zhixi's mind flashed these two lines of poetry, last night she stayed in a five-star hotel in the city, and stayed awake all night. She wiped the ukulele that Leng Jiang had given her, and swept the chords of "Endless Road" over and over again, the vibrating notes of the piano case stirring her mind.

She remembered her birthday last year, Leng Jiang took her to the guitar shop, and looking at the house full of exquisitely made guitars, she picked the smallest and exquisite. Leng Jiang smiled and asked, "Don't buy a bigger one?" What does this 26-inch look like? Liu Zhixi shook her head, pulled him aside, and whispered: "I just learned to play, and I'm not professional, 26 inches are more expensive." Leng Jiang's eyes were full of tenderness, and he gently rubbed her long hair, smiling without saying a word.

Last night, the sky was drizzling, and Liu Zhixi couldn't sleep, so she left the hotel and went to the nearby 24-hour convenience store. She was dazzled by the variety of packaged snacks on the shelves, and finally stopped in front of the cocktail counter, where she carefully picked up a bottle of "Rui Ao" cocktail that was always advertised on the TV, and shook it gently in boredom. She didn't know why she was shaking, but she just thought of the scene where Leng Jiang taught her to taste red wine, and she smiled dumbly.

Liu Zhixi picked 3 different flavors of cocktails, paid the bill and returned to the hotel, opened and sipped bottles one by one, the sweetness of the juice, with a faint smell of alcohol, she tasted it and immediately fell in love with the taste, one bottle at a time. When the night rain was pouring down, she opened the window of her room, and the cool breeze rushed in, but she felt extremely comfortable and comfortable, and forgot her worries and uneasiness for a while. Under the influence of alcohol, her face showed a full ruddy, and by the slight drunkenness, she collapsed on the bed but could not sleep, her eyes open, and the past was repeated in her heart.

"Zhixi, are you leaving? Something happened to Su Huai! The sweet voice of the announcer sounded in the waiting hall, reminding passengers that the train was about to arrive, Liu Zhixi was about to swipe her ID card to cross the gate, the mobile phone rang anxiously, and Lin Sujin's voice came from the phone, like a lightning bolt cutting through the quiet sky.
