Before going to work in the afternoon, Tao Anqi came to the team office area with a pile of documents and called a girl from the same team.

"Sister Tao Tao, what is this?"

"I took half a day off. I have to do these things in the afternoon. Please help me deal with them."

"Okay...but why is it so sudden? Is something wrong?"

"I have something to do at home, so I'll go back... If nothing happens, I should be back on Sunday." Tao Anqi said quickly.

But seeing that she was already dressed and carrying a bag, she was obviously ready to leave the company... The girl looked helpless, and her original weekend plan was probably about to be cancelled.

Tao Anqi left the company and went back to the rented apartment first. The train tickets were not issued until 5:20 in the evening. After arriving, it should be early in the morning.

She had no plan to go back, and she couldn't find a favorable time to book a flight at the last minute, so the next best thing was to choose this later flight.

Later, she had two phone calls with her brother Tao Kai, who somewhat blamed her because the call actually didn't need to be made to him, and asked her if it would be difficult to make a call to her current location.

Tao Anqi suddenly didn't know how to answer, so she just said to herself: Maybe it's really difficult.

This seems to be due to her personality... She doesn't want Tao Kai's pistachio personality. She has been independent and strong since she was a child. This may be due to genetics.

It turns out that she actually didn't care much about her malingering a few times in the past. In fact, it's funny to think about it. They are obviously the most closely related mother and daughter, but they still can't talk properly.

When I started packing my clothes in the apartment, a peace charm suddenly fell out of my coat pocket... My mother went to the temple to ask for it during the Chinese New Year, and gave one to Tao Kai and her respectively... But during the Chinese New Year,

She did not go back. This peace charm was sent by Tao Kai later.

On the one hand, it’s because the vacation is not long, and on the other hand, it’s because I don’t want to face too many inquiries from relatives and friends after returning home.

She is already twenty-seven or eighty-years-old, and marriage is often discussed... This is probably a problem that all older unmarried young people will encounter.

Maybe we can have a good talk after going back this time... Tao Anqi held the peace charm in her hand, but she still couldn't find how to say the first sentence.

She knew that she was really too strong, like a hedgehog.

She made a temporary decision to go back this time without even informing Tao Kai.

As she thought about it, she felt a little irritable. She didn't know since when did going home not only not become something to look forward to, but also became a burden?

Tao Anqi was lying on the bed, and a soft white light flashed in front of her eyes.

It was for love at that time.

…

It was for love at that time.

At that time, she still retained the purest and most beautiful longing for love, and she even felt that it would be difficult to fall in love with such a boy again in the future.

When the relationship was at its strongest, the boy promised her marriage. She truly felt that she was the happiest person.

"I disagree."

This was almost the cruelest thing she had ever heard her mother say to her since she was sensible. She felt that she had grown up and become independent.

"In fact, the transportation is very convenient now, and it doesn't take much time to go back and forth. I will go home often to see you. Besides, isn't there Tao Kai at home... Can you stop being so ****? I can't think about it for myself.

Really?"

This is almost the cruelest thing she has said to her mother since she was sensible.

She chose to stay because he made a promise to her... She felt that she was brave enough until she saw the boy's parents.

"We disagree."

She didn't feel desperate because she always believed that he would block this for her, just like if she blocked it in front of her mother.

"I'm sorry, I really like you, but..."

She suddenly understood.

Later, even she didn't know why she still stayed in this big city after breaking off the relationship with him... But she knew that it was not because of this man who gave her a dream.

Maybe I just...can't find my way home.

This dream was really long. Tao Anqi opened her eyes, her consciousness went from blur to clarity, wondering if she had missed the time... But the sky didn't seem to darken, so she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Maybe we can catch up.

But...where is this place?

She was frightened, her consciousness was blank, and she felt panicked, so panicked that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She looked at everything that became huge.

"You little guy, why don't you eat? Are you full?"

Mother... Tao Anqi looked at the face right in front of her.

She was suddenly not only frightened, she looked down at her hands and saw that her palms had turned into pink balls of flesh.

Oh my god, she thought this dream was so weird that she probably hadn't woken up yet, right? Otherwise, how could such a weird thing come about in the world?

She thought of the giant beetle that Gregor turned into in the absurd novel One Hundred Years of Solitude.

It was just a dream, she couldn't even remember it after she woke up... She told herself this after calming down, but she didn't know how she should wake up.

Maybe when her phone rings, it will wake her up. She can only look forward to this kind of external stimulation.

Sure enough, I still want to see you, even in my dreams...

She raised her hands, or forelimbs, and her mother's face was right in front of her, much clearer than she had ever seen before.

"You little guy!"

Zheng Lihong really fell in love with this little guy more and more, and she hugged him into her arms.

"Can I give you a name?"

When her mother's voice rang in her ears, she discovered that the cat's hearing was so developed that she could even hear her mother's heartbeat.

Name? This dream is too real...have you not woken up yet? Did you sleep too deeply this time? She just let Zheng Lihong hold it and put it in the basket position in front of the bicycle, looking at the impact of this on her.

It's quite a high altitude, and I feel like I'm not a real cat.

"Just call me Naughty!"

The voice was still so clear. Tao Anqi actually didn't pay too much attention to the name. She just vaguely remembered that her mother also called her that way when she was a child.

Naughty...the children in that family are never naughty!

Aren't you also very naughty? You pretended to be sick several times last year! They say that as people get older, they live more like a child. You are really torturing me.

How many times has Tao Kai told you not to ride your bicycle? Have you listened? You don't listen. You want us to listen to you.

The bicycle swayed, and then began to become stable. The people and objects in front of it were getting closer and farther away... Tao Anqi looked at it, then climbed up from the basket, put her paws on it, and stuck her head out.

Come on, looking at this visual scene, I suddenly miss the taste of Yiliduo.

Come, have a bottle each.

When I was a kid, I would always look like this when I came home from school.

She really couldn't bear to drink it all in one gulp. She always put it in the refrigerator first, and waited until it was ice cold before she took it out and drank it in small sips. It was only about a hundred milliliters, but she could drink it for a long time.

.

Now my mother is not ready... In fact, I have them at home, and there are many more. If I can't sell them all, I will take them home.

In fact, it seems that you are used to not drinking anymore, right?

"Ah, you little guy, you are really naughty! Danger...the name is correct!"

Zheng Lihong reached out and pushed down the little guy's head in the basket.

Who is in danger, you are in danger, okay? Don’t forget that you are still riding a bicycle! Stop wandering around and go home quickly, okay? Why are you walking on the street alone?

You are alone...

Why haven't you woke up yet?

Jingle bell, jingle bell!

"A Hong, A Hong!"

A middle-aged woman with the same dress drove over on a bicycle. She had the impression that she was a coworker who did the same job as her mother.

She couldn't remember the name.

…

"Ah Hong, why do you think it's sold out today?"

"It's not all thanks to this little guy!"

"Ah, where did this little guy come from? Show me!"

A little greasy... She struggled a few times, but she really couldn't resist this greasy aunt. By the way, the name came to mind. She was an aunt who lived not far from her home. In the beginning, her mother did this job.

It was this aunt who introduced me.

The two began to chat.

The greasy aunt took out a small bag from the basket on the front of the car and said, "My son and daughter-in-law brought back some mandarin oranges. Let me give you some to try."

"How embarrassing." Zheng Lihong was a little happy.
