The dark room is like a closed secret room, and you need to find a switch to get out. As long as she's willing to speak up.

This switch is being pinched in Xu Mengzhou's hand at the moment.

Lin Yushan was confined to the bed by the man, and his legs clearly felt that the edge of the bed was sinking, which was obviously from his weight.

She couldn't see anything in front of her. Even if it is close, the heavy breathing of the man can only be felt through the touch of the skin.

Xu Mengzhou put one hand behind her head, and the other palm pressed on her thin shoulder, and quickly collected some strength.

The coat that Lin Yushan was wearing outside was open and scattered on the bed, revealing the thin knitted undershirt inside.

Maybe it was the high emotions that made the breath of both of them hot; Or maybe it's the overwhelming darkness that makes them temporarily blind.

In short, the man's undulating chest touched the tall softness she hid under the fabric.

The breathing was completely out of order.

His thumb unconsciously rubbed the coat on her shoulder, which was about to hang away.

Someone he hadn't seen in two months was now in front of him.

Xu Mengzhou's slender fingers couldn't help but caress along her neck all the way up to the jawline, and then to the corners of her cold lips. Adam's apple slides.

An impulse swelled up in my heart.

It's an instinctive impulse that only arises for her alone.

“……！”

Xu Mengzhou was forced to snort by the pain from his fingertips, and the dull pain made him wake up, and finally let go of his hand.

The man below him immediately broke free of him as soon as he found an opportunity, stumbled out of bed, and staggered out.

"Xiaoyu, it's me!"

"Don't go."

The man immediately grabbed her wrist, and she paused.

After a brief silence, press the switch on the wall. The room lit up instantly, and Xu Mengzhou finally saw her appearance clearly.

After the chaos just now, Lin Yushan's whole person was disheveled.

She was shoeless, and her scarf and coat slipped onto the bed in a struggle. The long, silky hair was messy, and a few strands of hair were clinging to her lips. His eyes were a little moist, his brows were furrowed deeply, and his eyes seemed to be frightened. The rare flustered appearance is pitiful.

Caught off guard, they looked at each other silently.

I haven't seen each other for two months, and they all seem to feel that the other party is a little rusty, and no one is willing to speak first.

It wasn't until Lin Yushan's gaze slowly shifted to the man's fingers that Xu Mengzhou came back to his senses. He raised his hand, and a deep tooth mark was faintly visible on his middle finger.

There is an ambiguous and eerie atmosphere flowing in the room, which is unsettling.

Xu Mengzhou lowered his eyes, forcibly suppressed all his emotions, reached out and picked up the coat on the bed and draped it over her trembling shoulders, and pulled it forward.

Lin Yushan lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him, and was taken a few steps closer to his arms by his strength.

"It's been a long time, let's talk." Xu Mengzhou reluctantly let go of her, opened the bedroom door and walked out, "Go downstairs." ”

Lin Yushan finally recovered from the chaos just now, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions.

I made up my mind not to see him again, but I almost lost my mind at the moment when I touched the man's skin, but fortunately I wasn't carried away just now.

Lin Yushan glanced down at his frozen feet, and pulled out a smile self-deprecatingly.

She bent down to pick up the scarf that had fallen on the bed. When he got up, his eyes swept to the wardrobe in the bedroom.

The wardrobe door was ajar, and a low-saturation, gray-green knitted dress hung from a black rail, standing out among the men's shirts next to her.

The dress was new, without a single wrinkle, and it was covered with a transparent dust bag, which was carefully protected.

Is it a yellow tree?

Or the woman he mentioned on the phone......

Scold.

Lin Yushan's chest was stuffy, and he was so blocked that he couldn't breathe.

During the two months that she was separated from Xu Mengzhou, she kept reminding herself that since she took the initiative to choose to cut off the relationship between them, she must not turn back.

But she had inadvertently turned back countless times, even if she didn't want to admit it.

Just like now. Even though she had long been mentally prepared that Xu Mengzhou would turn the page sooner or later, when her eyes swept over the skirt, her heart still hurt so much that she was about to drip blood.

It's okay, I'm just here to get something today, and his life has nothing to do with himself.

Lin Yushan endured the sourness in his heart, pushed open the bedroom door, and went downstairs with the handrail of the stairs.

Xu Mengzhou had just finished his work in the kitchen. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he quickly came out of the kitchen and went up the stairs, carrying Lin Yushan slowly down. But she refused, stubbornly breaking away from him. Xu Mengzhou couldn't, so he had to slowly accompany her downstairs.

When he came out of the kitchen with the fruit bowl again, Lin Yushan was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony, looking intently at the goose feather snow falling outside the window.

Two rattan chairs and a small coffee table are still in their original positions that day. Only later, he and she never sat here and had a good heart-to-heart conversation.

"It's rare for it to snow as heavily as it does today." He put down his plate and sat down on a wicker chair.

"In the past, as soon as it snowed in the winter, you would be happy to go out," he said. Even if it's just a little snowflake, you can be happy for a long time, and you have to reach out to pick it up, and in those days, the refrigerator at home was full of snowballs you picked up from the side of the road......"

Xu Mengzhou didn't ask her why she appeared at his house today, but just talked about the past.

She said lightly: "What happened a long time ago has passed." ”

It's like reminding yourself and reminding him.

Originally, they shouldn't have met again, but since they met suddenly, Lin Yushan didn't plan to continue to waste time.

"I'm sorry to have the audacity to break into your house without saying hello..."

She said in a calm tone, "I came to pick up my dad's field notebook today, and I forgot to take it with me when I was discharged from the hospital and moved. This is the only relic he left me, so please give it back to me. ”

I want to leave quickly. If she stayed in this room, she wasn't really sure if she would finally waver.

"Okay."

After a long silence, the man got up and walked upstairs.

The footsteps suddenly stopped. He turned his back to her and asked, "... Anything else? ”

"What else?" She asked.

"Except for the wild book," Xu Mengzhou looked back at her, his gaze deep, "Isn't there anything else to take away?" ”

If Xu Mengzhou hadn't come back today, she would have had the opportunity to take that photo with her.

But he just appeared, and now he is qualified to take away, and now there is only this wild book left.

"Nothing else." She calmly avoided his gaze.

Lin Yushan didn't know whether his words were intentional or unintentional, so he was speechless for a while, and asked in front of him: "... When did you take the wild book, it's obviously my father's thing, why didn't you tell me before you took it? ”

"I put it away on purpose,"

His gaze was softer, and his words were unabashed.

"I want to see you."

Lin Yushan was stunned, and his eyes subconsciously avoided it.

Xu Mengzhou replied calmly. She punched the cotton, and all her strength was gone.

I knew that I had been deceived, but I couldn't get angry.

"I went to look for you before, and you kept hiding. So I can't..."

Xu Mengzhou smiled. He retracted his gaze, and his voice was a little lower: "I'm sorry, I actually played such a childish trick......"

Lin Yushan felt that a corner of his heart was gently touched.

Men have always been steady, and she didn't expect him to admit so simply that he had done such an immature thing.

Xu Mengzhou raised his eyes to look at her again, "Although I didn't wait for you to ask me personally, but now I can see you." It's just that I didn't expect that we would meet in this way. ”

Lin Yushan's face turned red. She finally forgot that she broke into the house today, but the man didn't open which pot to mention.

He hid the wild book so that he could see her; And she took the risk to come to his house, but she wanted to see him again.

Either way, they all seem to have done childish things because of each other.

She was a little embarrassed, "... I've already apologized to you just now, and you should apologize to me for taking my things. It's not too early, give me back the things, it's time for me to go. ”

Xu Mengzhou didn't say any more, and went upstairs to the bedroom. When he returned, he handed her Professor Lin's wild book.

He only took this. Didn't take the frame.

She said that there was nothing else to take, and that he really just gave her this......

Lin Yushan's heart was depressed, and she was about to reach out to pick it up, but the man suddenly tightened his palm, and she couldn't pump no matter how hard she tried.

"It's the last day of the year," he said, in a quiet voice, "and sit with me a little longer." ”

The man's tone softened her heart for no reason, and she had to let go.

Outside the window, the dense branches were bent by the heavy snow, and the white lines piled up on them were like a developer, completely outlining the veins of the branches hidden in the dark night.

A trace of cold wind leaked in through the window, and Lin Yushan gathered his coat. Suddenly, she felt that she was wrapped behind her, and when she looked back, a soft thick blanket was already draped over her body, and the man's bony hands were on her shoulders.

"Thanks—" she blinked, silently dodging his hand.

Outside the window, on the walkway downstairs in the community, there are many fewer people coming and going than usual, but the windows of the buildings next to them are lit up.

Today is the last day of 2022. At this moment, everyone is reunited. It was only the two of them who were lonely and coincidentally got together.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Xu Mengzhou sat down on the rattan chair and asked her, "It seems that I was a little unsteady when I walked just now, is it because I didn't recover well?" ”

Lin Yushan was stunned for a moment and said, "The doctor said that it would take half a year to run and jump normally, and now it has only been more than two months. ”

"You hurt your left leg," Xu Mengzhou's gaze fell on her leg, "The right leg seems to be weaker than the left leg just now, is there a new injury?" ”

It was indeed a new injury, that is, on Christmas Eve, when I ran down the stairs in a panic.

Lin Yushan subconsciously pulled the hem of his clothes to cover his legs, and secretly sighed at his keen observation ability.

"It's okay," she said, not wanting him to see anything, and covered it up, "I accidentally broke it at home." ”

Xu Mengzhou leaned towards her, "Let me see." ”

"No..."Lin Yushan deliberately distanced himself from him, "It's not a big deal, it will get better slowly." ”

The man's words were blocked back by her, and she leaned back in the chair again: "In the past two months, you really don't care about what I'm doing at all?" ”
