11 He was going to return to the city
The sky was completely dyed red with the glow of the sun, the sun was sinking in the west, the light was slowly fading, and the day was coming to an end.
Looking at the sunset on the horizon, Xiao Cheng squinted, his face was unwavering, he didn't look like there was any change, a pair of long legs stretched out at will, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, the mist slowly spit out from between his lips, his posture was lazy, but with the coldness of not approaching anyone.
Dreaming again.
It's just a dream this time......
He raised his eyes and looked at the girl who was talking to Liu Hui in the corridor in front of him, with a complicated expression.
The information handed over to him by Jiangyan shows that not to mention being involved with people in Beijing, she has never even left Guangping County, and this is the first time she has gone far away.
It's just that the reason why she came here is why it's so unpleasant.
Xiao Cheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a trace of deep darkness crawled under his eyes, as if a glorious cold jade flowed under the cold light of evacuation.
At this time, she seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned to look in the direction where he was, and then her eyebrows and eyes became vivid, and a subtle smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and the upward arc quickly crossed her cheeks, and finally condensed into two shining sparks in her eyes, and disappeared into the depths of her pupils in an instant.
"Mr. Xiao is awake?"
Under the eaves, a warm yellow light fell on her face, which reminded Xiao Cheng of the sycamore flowers planted outside the bedroom in Beijing, which were full of buds, which were very attractive.
As soon as he woke up, Xiao Cheng was loose, shook off the ashes, and his voice was faint with a little nasal: "Hmm." ”
At the end, his eyes moved slightly, and he added, "Come and help me, my legs are numb." ”
Hearing this, Lin Aiyun's body turned faster than her brain, and she subconsciously stepped down the steps and walked in the direction where Xiao Cheng was, until she was about to come to the front, and then she realized that something was wrong, so she turned her head and said to Liu Hui puzzled: "Aunt Hui? ”
"Huh? Oh. Liu Hui came back to his senses and trotted over quickly.
“……”
Xiao Cheng looked at Lin Aiyun, who was bending down to clean up the loquat residues on the ground in front of him, smiled, ignored Liu Hui's outstretched hand, and stood up with the armrest of the wooden chair.
Liu Hui glanced at Xiao Cheng's leg and withdrew his hand in a sneer.
"Mr. Xiao, how did you feel after sleeping all afternoon today?" Liu Chengzhang walked out of the hall with an unconcealable joy on his face, God knows how excited and relieved he was to see Xiao Cheng fall asleep in the courtyard.
This means that his prescription has worked.
"Not bad." Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand and rubbed the back of his head, and answered truthfully, he had indeed not slept so soundly in the daytime for a long time, and he didn't know why, but he always felt at ease staying here.
No, to be exact......
Xiao Cheng's eyes rolled, and he glanced at the slender back with his peripheral vision, feeling relieved by her side.
"That's good, that's good." Liu Chengzhang breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "Will you come during the day tomorrow or later?" ”
"I'm not coming, I'm going back to Beijing." As soon as Xiao Cheng's words fell, there was a sudden muffled sound of a dustpan smashing on the ground in front of him, although it was very light, but it still caused a lot of waves in the silent courtyard.
"Hey, I'll help you lift it, how can you lift it by yourself if it's so heavy." Liu Hui stepped forward to help lift a corner.
"Thanks, it doesn't look too heavy." Lin Aiyun suppressed the panic on her face, and barely smiled, but her heart was chaotic like a wild horse that had escaped.
Xiao Cheng is going back to Beijing? How could it be so fast, so fast that she didn't have time to react at all, they only met twice, and they didn't say a few words, what did she do to keep him?
Not only Lin Aiyun, but Liu Chengzhang was also very surprised, and said: "I have just improved, and it may be counterproductive to interrupt the treatment like this." ”
Xiao Cheng bit the cigarette butt and lazily withdrew his gaze from Lin Aiyun, seemingly not caring very much, "Let's talk about it then." ”
After saying that, he turned around and walked to the hall, took the coat he had worn when he came, and left.
"It's really elusive what rich people think." Liu Hui sighed a lot, and then said to Lin Aiyun: "Go home quickly, it's already time to get off work, it's hard for you to stay and help me copy so many prescriptions, it's really heartfelt." ”
"It's not much, then Aunt Hui, I'll go first." Lin Aiyun's hand tightening her grip on the bag tightened and walked quickly towards the door.
The afterglow dissipated, and the sky was gray by this time, her breathing unconsciously increased, and her eyes searched everywhere, trying to find the person she wanted to see quickly, but in the end it was to no avail.
His car was long gone.
*
For several days in a row, Xiao Cheng seemed to have never appeared, and he never came to Liu's house again, everything continued to move forward according to the previous plainness, only Lin Aiyun's heart seemed to be pressed against a big stone, and the whole person was a little unmotivated.
But in order not to let others see the clues, she disguised herself well, and at the same time, the haze in her heart gradually dispersed, if there is no fate now, then wait until she takes the initiative to create fate, and they will always have a goodbye day.
On the weekend, I wanted to go to the post office to send a letter to my family, but I was stopped by Zhang Wenyue.
"Hey, it's okay to go tomorrow, I have other important things to do today." Zhang Wenyue happily pulled Lin Aiyun to choose the clothes for a long time, and finally chose a light-colored long skirt and belt.
"Auntie, what are you doing here?" It wasn't until Lin Aiyun was pushed by Zhang Wenyue to change clothes that she realized that she was choosing clothes for her, so she said puzzled before the door was closed.
Thinking of Zhang Wenhua's explanation, Zhang Wenyue's eyes flashed, and she said vaguely: "Your uncle has a leader who invites you to dinner at night, you go with us, move faster." ”
Lin Aiyun looked at the door that was slammed shut, and felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't think of going anywhere else, so she suppressed her doubts temporarily, changed her clothes, and was pulled to braided her hair, I don't know if I thought she would have to perform on stage later.
"Xiao Hao, aren't they going?" As she was about to go out, Lin Aiyun looked at the two brothers and sisters who were still playing outside the yard and frowned.
"If they don't go, just the three of us, don't offend people when the children are naughty and mischievous."
"That's it, just enough to let Aiyun know more people."
Zhang Wenyue and Ding Weidong sang and harmonized, and they decided so happily, and Lin Aiyun had no other opinions.
The agreed place to eat is not far from Ding's house, and it will take some time to walk over, and on the way, Zhang Wenyue briefly introduced the other party's situation to Lin Aiyun.
"You can call Uncle Xu and Auntie, they have two sons, both older than you, but not much older, just a few years old, I don't know if they will bring them to eat together this time, if they come, call them brother."
"Try to behave normally and naturally, be generous, and don't be too shy."
"Their family is a good person, good in all aspects, there are two or three apartments in the city, and Uncle Xu's monthly salary is at least twice that of your uncle."
Speaking of this, Zhang Wenyue sighed twice, very envious, how many beautiful clothes and shoes did she buy with the extra money?
"Sounds really good...... Lin Aiyun nodded in agreement, this condition can be regarded as a very nourishing family in an ordinary person's home.
Zhang Wenyue and Ding Weidong glanced at each other, smiled tacitly, and said something about the Xu family, and unconsciously arrived at the door of the hotel, which is an old store that has been open for more than ten years, because of its good taste, it is well-known in the county.
Of course, the price is also slightly higher.
From a distance, I saw a tall young man standing at the door, wearing a decent white shirt and black trousers, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, with a childish handsomeness that made him a little indistinguishable, the most outstanding thing was the all-round temperament, humble and gentle, without a trace of aggression.
A boy like the warm sun in spring, elegant and upright.
It is human nature to appreciate beautiful people and things, and anyone who sees them has to take a few more looks, and Lin Aiyun is no exception.
"This is the youngest son of the Xu family, right? He looks a little like his father. Zhang Wenyue leaned her head to Ding Weidong's ear, asked with some uncertainty, and finally couldn't help but add: "It's quite handsome." ”
"How do I know, I haven't seen it again." Ding Weidong looked at the appearance of the two women beside him who couldn't move away, and the corners of his mouth twitched, but fortunately, the other party took the lead in giving them an answer.
The man walked towards them quickly, and greeted them with a bow, "May I ask if it's Uncle Ding and Aunt Zhang?" ”
After getting an affirmative answer, the man pursed his lips and smiled, "Hello, when we meet for the first time, let me introduce myself first, my name is Xu Fengyang." ”
"Good boy." Ding Weidong patted Xu Fengyang's arm and smiled heartily: "I'm really sorry for you to wait for us here." ”
"Don't bother, let's go in first." Xu Fengyang had a decent smile on his face, but he was still young in the end, and he knew the purpose of this trip, and his eyes fell uncontrollably on Lin Aiyun who was standing behind Zhang Wenyue.
The latter felt something, raised his head, his skin was fair, his face was big with a palm, and under his bent eyebrows was a pair of dark and clear apricot eyes, slightly hooked his lips, which made his lips look even more vermilion, and his eyes were confused for a moment and then turned into a friendly light, which made Xu Fengyang stunned at that moment, and then returned an equally kind smile.
Because he avoided the meal, there were not many people in the restaurant, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the Xu family members waiting in their seats early.
"We're late."
"Why, it's because we're here early."
The two sides stood together and shook hands to catch up, but it was more awkward for the two young people to stand aside.
"This is your niece Aiyun, right? Oops, it's so watery. Xu Mu Qi Shuhong couldn't take her eyes off Lin Aiyun as soon as she saw her, and subconsciously compared her with Zhang Wenyue, both of them are beauties, but their temperament types are completely different.
The former is a white rose that is as bright as spring, and the latter is a red rose with a bright sun.
If you want her to say, she prefers Lin Aiyun, who is gentle and introverted when she looks at her, and she is also a good match with her own Fengyang, this is not how the two of them stand together, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a golden boy and a jade girl.
"Hahaha, Aiyun, come here, let me introduce you, this is your Uncle Xu, Aunt Xu, Brother Fengyang, you just met." Zhang Wenyue has a fiery temperament, she is not stage frightened at all, even if the relationship is not so familiar, but the smile on her face does not fall at all.
Qi Shuhong is also comparable, and the two are holding each other's hands like friends at the moment.
"Uncle, aunt, Brother Fengyang." Lin Aiyun followed Zhang Wenyue's words, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and her smile was bright.
"Sit down, let's sit and talk."
