After Su Li handed in the article, she imagined that Gu Ling'an would come to her after reading it and tell her in the woods outside the school, "So you are that girl. I have been looking for you. It was very hard to find you." She would also be very affectionate.

He said to her, "Never forget."

However, the reality is cruel, Gu Ling'an never came to her.

Su Li waited for two days, feeling anxious in her heart, "Is he too busy to read it? Or has he read it but doesn't have time to come to him for the time being? Or, he has read it but can't remember those things? Or,

He is not that little boy at all?" She thought over and over again, and got distracted several times in class and was criticized by the teacher, "Su Li, pay attention and listen carefully."

Chen Xi noticed something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so lost?"

Su Li didn't dare to tell her the reason. For someone at that age, thinking about someone of the opposite sex and losing consciousness was a very "shameful" thing. She could only lie and said, "It's probably because of poor sleep."

"So that's it. Let me tell you a good way. You can sleep comfortably by soaking your feet before going to bed. I always do this."

"Well, okay." She replied, but she had no intention of doing that.

"My mother likes ginger, but I don't like it. I like to put perfume on it. It smells good and makes me feel good." Chen Xi was still recommending it enthusiastically.

When lies were taken seriously, it was really unsettling. Su Li felt very sorry for her, but at the same time, she was also very grateful to her and said, "I'll go back and give it a try tonight." This time she really wanted to give it a try.

Chen Xi was very happy, "I hope it will work."

"Um!"

That night, after she finished studying, she really soaked her feet. She didn't add ginger or perfume, so it was quite comfortable to soak her feet.

I soaked for half an hour, wiped my feet and went to sleep. I had a very beautiful dream, in which fallen stars were flying.

************************

It wasn't until the fifth day that I finally got a reply, but it wasn't from Gu Ling'an personally, but from the girl who received the registration last time. She was still so arrogant that she looked at people through her nostrils. After finding Su Li, she threw her article to her.

Chen Xi asked from the side, "Senior, where is mine?"

The girl glanced at her sideways and said very impatiently, "Your article was selected to be published in the school magazine, so I won't return it to you."

Chen Xi was very happy after hearing this and replied with a smile, "Thank you, senior sister."

Su Li couldn't laugh. She stuffed the half-folded manuscript paper into her schoolbag with one hand, like a returned love letter. Many questions popped up in her mind, "Did he read it seriously? He forgot what happened when he was a child."

Really? Or do they just have the same name?"

Chen Xi saw Su Li's ugly face and quickly comforted her, "Actually, the school magazine is the same as the magazines outside. It depends on the style. I often submitted articles when I was in junior high school. I have experience, so it's not that your writing is bad."

Su Li looked up at her, tried her best to smile, and said "hmm" and stopped talking. In fact, not being able to be published in the school magazine was not the reason why she was sad.

When she got home from school, Su Li couldn't wait to take out the manuscript from her schoolbag and turned it to the last page.

There were two beautiful lines written there. She lowered her head and read it carefully. The content read, "The article is well written, the writing style is smooth, and the true feelings are revealed. However, it is too long and the subject matter is not suitable for this school magazine, so it is returned to you -

—Gu Ling'an."

She carefully read what he had written over and over again. She was so disappointed that she closed the manuscript paper sadly and put it into the photo album in the drawer.

That photo album was originally one of her treasures. It contained family photos of her and her parents, as well as a small graduation photo with Qiao.

She thought again, "Does he just have the same name as that kid? Or does he remember it but don't take it seriously?" The more she thought about it, the more irritated she became.

The little steamed bun walked around the room, meowing "meow" twice from time to time. Su Li usually thought its sound was soft and cute, but now she felt it was inexplicably noisy. She shouted softly to it, "

Be quiet."

Little Mantou seemed to understand, curled up in the corner and stopped making any sound, looking at her with a pair of big and bright eyes, as if asking, "Are you okay?"

Su Li walked over, picked it up, and said to it, "Tell me, is he that little boy?"

Little Mantou said nothing, closed his eyes and fell asleep in her arms.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sound of the door opening downstairs, and it was my father who was back.

Su Li got up and went downstairs. Her father came back with takeout as usual, looking gloomy for some reason.

"What's wrong?" Su Li asked cautiously, thinking, "Did the teacher call her father and tell her that she was distracted in class?"

"It's a matter of work." Dad said and sat down, dejected. "The company has brought in a new batch of people. There are many new ideas and new elements in creativity, and they use computer software, which is very fast and needs to be modified.

The time is also very fast." At this point, he sighed heavily, "The old batch will be eliminated."

Su Li didn't speak. This was the first time her father had told her about work. Maybe he felt that she had grown up, or maybe he really couldn't find anyone else to talk to.

It must be the latter reason. Su Li suddenly felt pitiful for her father. She started to unpack the chopsticks and replied to him, "You can learn to use computers. As times are developing, your old-fashioned skills will indeed be eliminated."

Dad looked up at her and remained silent.

Su Li didn't speak any more, and the little steamed bun walked over. She picked up a piece of fish and threw it to it.

Someone outside just played a song about my father, "That was when I was a child/I often sat on my father's shoulders/My father was the ladder to the sky/My father was the cow that pulled the cart/I can't forget that I was raised with simple meals.

/ I can’t forget a long sigh with half a pot of old wine / When I grow up / Children in the mountains go out / I think of a letter from home when I was a child and wrote instructions from thousands of miles away / Looking forward to my son’s return, a bag of cigarette smoke fills the sky with stars / They say raising children can prevent old age / But

Children live in a foreign land with high mountains and rivers/They say raising children is for old age/But no matter how hard and tired you are, you still won’t open your mouth...""

************************

The next day was Saturday. When Su Li got up, her father had already gone out. She went downstairs to cook noodles, but found that there was no noodles at home, so she had to go out to buy them.

The air outside was very good, she bought some noodles, and when she had nothing to do, she suddenly decided to go and ask Gu Lingan in person if she remembered her.

Instead of having a headache guessing, it's better to ask clearly.

After making this decision, she got on the No. 7 bus, and Xiao Mantou followed her and got on the bus.

When he arrived at the bun shop, there were two customers buying buns there. Gu Lingan was wearing a pure white T-shirt and had his signature sunny smile.

After the two customers left, Su Li walked up quickly and said, "Two steamed buns and a cup of soy milk." She was a little nervous, her voice trembling slightly.

"Okay." Gu Ling'an smiled at her, which made her heart beat wildly. She was so nervous that her face gradually became hot. Forget about asking about that matter, she didn't even dare to look at him. She lowered her head and pretended to go.

Guan Baozi tried to hide his panic.

Gu Ling'an quickly packed the buns and soy milk and handed it to her. His hands had long fingers and clean nails, which made Su Li feel good about him again. He handed over the money, and the other party quickly found change. She took it and turned around.

, after taking two steps, she felt unwilling to do so, so she mustered up a lot of courage to go back, and asked, "Senior, I would like to ask you if you lived in K Village, J Town, when you were a child?" She asked nervously, her tongue twitching a bit.

Knot.

Gu Lingan nodded immediately after hearing this and asked doubtfully, "How do you know?"

Su Li felt that her heart was about to jump into her throat. She continued to ask cautiously, "Do you still remember what happened when you were a child?" She heard her little heart beating hard, as if it was about to start beating at any time.

It felt like it was jumping out of my chest, so I stretched out my hand to hold it.

"What happened when you were a child?" Gu Lingan looked thoughtful.

Su Li was waiting for him there with great expectation, and her breathing became rapid.

After a long time, the other party shook his head and said, "I've almost forgotten about it."

Have you almost forgotten? Su Li felt her heart drop, and suddenly felt like a sentimental fool.

"What's wrong?" Gu Ling'an asked.

"Uh...it's okay!" She turned around and left quickly. She thought of the little steamed bun and looked around. She found that it was being held by Gu Ling'an's brother. The little guy was using a paintbrush to draw on it. The little steamed bun suddenly

I let him paint randomly with a look of enjoyment, and soon my whole body was colorful.

The little guy stood up happily and shouted, "Brother, brother, brother, look, look!"

Gu Lingan looked back and was startled, "Where did that cat come from?"

Su Li walked forward and said, "Mine." She bent down and picked up the little steamed bun.

"I'm sorry, my brother is too naughty." He apologized, "Let me clean it for you." He reached out to hug him and touched Su Li's hand.

Feeling like an electric shock, Su Li couldn't help but take two steps back, feeling her face burning up. She lowered her head and said, "It's okay, this looks good." She turned around and left quickly like a thief.

Faintly hearing someone calling her name from behind, she didn't dare to look back, she lowered her head and walked quickly.

It was almost noon when she got home. Su Li cooked noodles and sat at the dining table to eat alone. While eating, she thought, "Senior Gu has stayed in that place. Is he really that little boy?"
