When I returned to the shore-seeking area, the heavy rain had no intention of stopping. Most of the shops in the night market that are still open at this point have also closed early, and there are still a few that have not had time to close, the rain has already flooded into the room from the door, the guests have already left, and the boss and his family are packing up their things in a panic.

Lin Yushan looked through the car window at the water level that had overflowed the tires, and couldn't help but be a little afraid.

If Xu Mengzhou hadn't waited for her today, what would have happened if he stayed there alone.

The sudden rainstorm and road congestion made it very difficult for the car to drive to Huachen Mansion. Xu Mengzhou hurriedly parked the car in the garage and pulled Lin Yushan home as fast as he could.

Fortunately, the heater in the car dried both of them, and there was no rain on the way back, but the first thing after arriving home, Xu Mengzhou still urged her to take a bath first.

Lin Yushan nodded and walked to the bathroom, suddenly stopped, his expression was a little embarrassed: "It seems that there are no clothes to change." ”

She remembered that when she came here for the first time on her birthday last year, it was also like this, and in the end, Xu Mengzhou took a set of her own clothes to change into.

Although he lived next to him for a short time in the latter period, after he was discharged from the hospital with a leg injury, he basically emptied the next door and left no clothes.

"Yes, you wait." He said suddenly.

Xu Mengzhou turned around and walked into the guest bedroom, and came out after a while. He also held a brand new set of clothing, a light gray long-sleeved jumper and a pair of draped homeside trousers.

Lin Yushan stepped forward, put his hand on his clothes and touched it, the texture was very soft and comfortable. She asked curiously, "When did you buy it?" ”

Xu Mengzhou touched his neck, and his voice sank: "... You didn't have any clothes to change when you came here before, and I bought them at the mall on the way back to school on the day I sent you back to school. It's a simple style of home clothes, and I bought it when I saw that the fabric was pretty good. ”

"Home clothes..."Lin Yushan smiled and grabbed his arm and teased, "Oh... It turns out that at that time, you liked me to come to your place. ”

The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and he was a little shy to make up for himself: "I just don't know if the quality is good or not." I bought five of the same ones, and if they wear out, they will be replaced. ”

Five identical ......

Lin Yushan almost didn't squirt out. Even if you buy a few pieces of the same style, you can choose different colors! Sure enough, it's a straight man.

Still, she gratitiously took the suit from him and went into the bathroom.

After washing, she wiped her hair and came out of the bathroom to see Xu Mengzhou working on a laptop in the living room. suddenly remembered that he had been drenched in the rain before, and urged him to hurry up and wash.

Taking advantage of the gap between the man's bathing, she remembered something and went upstairs to the master bedroom to take a look.

Turn on the ceiling lamp and the familiar room layout comes into view again.

The picture of running to Xu Mengzhou's house on Chinese New Year's Eve to "burglary" is still vivid, and Lin Yushan couldn't help but pull the corners of his lips.

That night, she only took the field notebook with her, and the man didn't give her the group photo. Lin Yushan walked to his bedside table and slowly squatted down and opened the drawer.

She was stunned, the picture frame was gone.

Forget it, ask Xu Mengzhou when he comes out.

She stood up on the edge of the bed, her eyes drawn to the dress in the closet once more. The gray-green dress that she thought was left by another woman was lovingly hung in the closet by men.

He said the dress was given to him. She couldn't help but walk to the front of the closet to take a look at the whole dress. The slim fit of the knitted fishtail is beautiful, but she never wears a similar style of clothes on weekdays.

It seems like... Still a little sexy?

Downstairs there was the sound of the door opening. She shook her head and went downstairs holding on to the handrail.

Xu Mengzhou changed into home clothes and came out of the bathroom with a towel to wipe his hair. I don't know if it's because the water temperature is too high, his face is a little red. Lin Yushan felt that something was wrong, and immediately stepped forward and touched his forehead to compare it with himself.

"It's hot, I've got a fever."

She took off the towel and put it on her hand, pulled Xu Mengzhou to the sofa and sat down, her eyes were full of worry: "Blow your hair first, go to bed and lie down when you are done, and I'll find you medicine." ”

"Under the TV cabinet," Xu Mengzhou looked at her with a smile, as if he was not affected by the fever at all.

Lin Yushan took out the hair dryer from under the TV cabinet, plugged it into the power strip, and stroked his hair little by little so that the hot air could blow to his scalp.

When she was in junior high school, Xu Mengzhou always helped her blow her hair, but now it's the other way around.

She half-knelt on the couch and carefully dried his hair. Xu Mengzhou still focused on the computer screen and continued to deal with the unfinished work.

"Why don't you deal with it tomorrow, you have a fever now..."After blowing, Lin Yushan pulled out the plug, turned the line around the handle of the hair dryer a few times, and turned around and put it back on the TV cabinet.

She felt guilty. If it hadn't rained suddenly on the way from the waterhole to the vicinity of the car, Xu Mengzhou wouldn't have had to be drenched in torrential rain for more than ten minutes for her.

"It'll be right away."

Xu Mengzhou still tapped on the keyboard with a calm face. Lin Yushan couldn't understand it, he only knew that this was a programming interface. I also saw him write code when I lived in the villa a few years ago, but I didn't know what product he was making.

When she saw Xu Mengzhou's concentrated appearance, she didn't want to bother anymore. Picking up the blanket from the couch and draping it over his shoulders, he turned to look for the medicine box.

When I opened the medicine box, there were only some wound dressings and bruising oil, and there was no fever reducer.

"The fever reducer is gone, I'll go downstairs and buy it." Lin Yushan hurriedly ran to the entrance, picked up the coat on the hanger, draped it over his shoulders and began to put on his shoes.

"Don't panic. Look, I'm fine, am I? Take it easy. The man saw that she was about to burst into flames, and calmly comforted her word by word: "With such a heavy rainstorm, the pharmacy downstairs should be closed." I still have ginger and rock sugar in the fridge that I didn't use up from the last cooking, and cooking ginger soup is also effective. ”

The man's words reassured her. Lin Yushan nodded, turned back to the kitchen to get the ingredients, and began to cook ginger soup.

Finish writing the last line and save the code. Xu Mengzhou closed the notebook, leaned on the back of the sofa relaxedly, and looked sideways at her back in the kitchen, with a relieved smile on the corner of her lips.

A few minutes later, she brought out a pot of steaming ginger soup and placed it on the coffee table, put a small bowl in a spoon to cool it gently, and handed it to him.

Xu Mengzhou felt that only one bowl of drinking was enough, and he couldn't stand Lin Yushan's soft grinding and hard foaming, saying that he was afraid that drinking not enough would have no effect, so he had to pour his stomach full of water.

After drinking ginger soup, he went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth, and Lin Yushan took the soup pot and dishes and chopsticks to the sink to wash them and put them away, and then accompanied him upstairs.

Lin Yushan asked him to lie down on the bed obediently, seeing that he looked sleepy, and then smashed the quilt around his neck and feet.

"Cover it for a while and sweat." She sat down on the edge of the bed, reluctant to take her eyes off him for a moment.

Xu Mengzhou looked at his appearance close to a mummy, and smiled dumbly.

For a long time, she has taken care of herself, and rarely has the opportunity to take care of others, so she will inevitably be flustered and unfamiliar, which is a unique sense of youth at her age.

"Well done, thank you." Xu Mengzhou looked at her and smiled softly, "I feel much better." ”

"Really?" Lin Yushan's eyes flashed with joy, and instantly turned into guilt: "Don't say that." If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in the rain. ”

"But," he gestured with his eyes, "I can't breathe." ”

Lin Yushan's face flushed, and he quickly loosened the area around his neck.

"Okay, it's quiet now, so to speak."

Xu Mengzhou took her hand that was still moving, and said in a deep voice: "... Remember what I came to you for today? ”

He disappeared for more than 20 days for no reason, and there was no news, Lin Yushan thought that this time he was really determined to break up.

"Where have you been all this time?" Her eyebrows moved slightly, and her eyes flashed with bitterness.

The unknown is the most torturous, as if his heart has disappeared with him.

The man's eyes were like stars, he sat up from the bed and held her hand tighter, "I went to country M." ”

"Country M?" Lin Yushan was stunned.

"Well, I went with my father, who signed a contract with an asset trust." Xu Mengzhou rubbed the back of her hand again and again, "After my father retires from the board of directors, he will hand over the Xinneng Group to the trust institution of country M to take care of it on his behalf." ”

"This time I'm really free." A relieved look finally appeared on his face.

This is the look she has not seen on a man's face for many years.

Lin Yushan's heart suddenly sank.

She knew that Xu Mengzhou had never intended to take over the company. But Father Xu has been pressing step by step all these years, why did he suddenly say that he would let go?

She voiced her doubts. "How could Uncle Xu agree? He didn't ...... all the time."

Xu Mengzhou's voice was particularly clear: "Because before signing the trust contract, I have signed a declaration of voluntary renunciation of the right to inherit property, which will take effect from the day of signing." From now on, no matter how big his business is, it will only be my father's own, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

What?

Children are born with the right to inherit their parents' property, how can he say that he will give up?!

Lin Yushan's mind suddenly went blank for a moment, and he stood up from the side of the bed, even his lips were trembling, "Why... Even if Uncle Xu forces you to do what you don't want to do, it is only natural for children to inherit their parents! How can this be......"

Her brows were furrowed, her eyes were so red that she was about to burst into tears, and a thousand words came to her lips and only turned into one sentence: "You didn't need such a ...... originally"

He could have been the proud son of heaven with proud wealth, but he was willing to give up everything.

Is it for her......

"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you." He reached out and touched her flushed cheeks, reassuringly, "I've had this idea for a long time, but it seems that I can't find the right time. My father saw that I had signed a declaration of renunciation of inheritance rights in advance, and knew that I had made an irreparable determination, so he agreed to hand over the group to the trust institution to take care of this matter in the future. ”

He continued: "After meeting with the leaders of the Institute of Geology last month, we had a very pleasant chat. They listened to my research results during my master's degree and decided to hire me as an associate researcher in the exploration group of the Institute of Geology. After a while, I will be able to go through the interview process and after September, I will be able to officially work there. ”

The man lowered his head in front of her and scratched the tip of her nose, "Haven't you always encouraged me to do what I love?" You see, now I can! ”

Xu Mengzhou's eyes flashed with a vision for the future, "I have already prepared my resignation report and handed it in at the beginning of school." After July, I am no longer a high school teacher, I no longer have to be imprisoned by this identity, I can hold hands generously under the sun. ”

The corners of his lips curled up in a beautiful arc and smiled at her: "... What a coincidence. After September, it seems that our lives have begun to enter a new stage. ”

In September, the number is so close that it seems to be within reach of an even stretch of hand.

It is a bright future that Lin Yushan can see, touch, and foresee with his own eyes.

After September, Xu Mengzhou was no longer bound by his family and was able to work on his ideal geological research work again; And she will break out of the ivory tower and complete the transformation from a college student to a social person, and the real journey of life is about to begin.

Lin Yushan suddenly felt that his seemingly sober "considerations" in the past seemed insignificant in front of Xu Mengzhou.

Because I am afraid of getting hurt, I blindly avoid it, and I have to find all kinds of excuses to constantly brainwash myself to make myself believe that this is right.

But he always used the most accurate practical actions to prove step by step his own recognition and determination of the choices he made.

It turned out that compared to him, he was the cowardly one.

The torrential rain crashes on the glass windows, creating a curtain of flowing water, which is fascinating to watch.

She sat down gently against the edge of the bed, tears already sliding down her eyes.

She was obviously not mature enough, but she was so firmly chosen by him.

He did it. So, she had to stand side by side with him.

“… I'll be brave with you. Her voice trembled, but she was sure.

Xu Mengzhou hooked her shoulders and hugged her into his arms, and the reassuring mint aroma lingered on his body.

He kissed her lightly on the forehead, and his voice was extremely gentle: "It's all over, and in the future, we will all have a good life." ”

Oh, yes.

After that, it's all a good day.
