The book bar was very quiet. Lin Xuejing would occasionally mutter or make some noise while drinking water.
During this period, Lin Xuejing also murmured regretfully that the owner of this bookstore was about to close, the business was not good, and it was in a place waiting for demolition. Although there were many people on the street downstairs every day, in today's fast-paced society, even
The first thing to eat is fast food. There are too few people who can calm down and sit here and read a book. The monthly income is not enough to cover the rent.
Shu Ran, who was flipping through the book opposite, stopped, not that he was interested in this topic. After all, this store has been open for many years, and the boss is no longer the wife who had a four-year-old son. It can be seen from the decoration inside.
There must have been a change of people, but Lin Xuejing's words mentioned the area to be demolished. Her eyes moved slightly, and she closed the half-read book and said, "Come somewhere with me!"
Lin Xuejing was stunned, but didn't say anything. She stood up and put the book in Shu Ran's hand back on the shelf, patted it and walked away, "Let's go!"
I just went out with her to relax tonight. She would accompany Shu Ran wherever she wanted to go!
The two left the book bar. The main reason why Shu Ran was familiar with this place was that she used to live near here, and the school was also close. When she was in high school, her grandma came to stay with her for one semester, and she also lived in her father's old house.
The house, after her parents divorced, the house was left to Shu Ran. She was very familiar with this place, so familiar that she could walk to the door of her home with her eyes squinted.
"The area where we live has long been announced that it will be demolished, but there are a few households that are stubborn and refuse to leave. Almost all the people living here have left, and there are still a few households that are holding on!"
The deeper they walked, the darker the light there became. Lin Xuejing took out her mobile phone and turned on the light. There were a lot of gravel on the road, and there were some uneven places. They were wearing high heels, and
Shu Ran's eyesight didn't work well at night, so he walked even more slowly.
"I haven't been here for a long time. The environmental sanitation here is poor. It hurts me every time I come here!" Lin Xuejing's voice in the alley was clear, but Shu Ran who was following her responded softly, "I've been here before, too.
once!"
Lin Xuejing was dumbfounded, but she didn't ask much. Just that time when Ran's father took the photos and threw them at Shu Ran, she also looked at those photos. The background was here, and the people in the photos were Shu Ran and Nie Zhanyun!
Because Nie Zhanyun and Shu Ran live in the same building!
Thinking of this, Lin Xuejing let out a sigh of relief. Could it be that Shu Ran came here to recall the past? Oh my god!
"Walking in this once-familiar alley, the feeling I had back then is no longer there. Things are different and people are different. I always feel a little melancholy!" Behind her, Ran sighed quietly. She walked slower than Lin Xuejing, her high heels tapping the road.
The stones in the center made a banging sound, hitting the surrounding ruins, and the echo was empty and lonely.
"Yes, yes, the Goubuli steamed buns at the entrance of the alley are so fragrant that they make people drool as soon as they come out of the cage. At that time, you could eat steaming steamed steamed buns with soy sauce meat almost every day. It made me and Nuan Yangyang look straight at each other.
The corner of my mouth is twitching, it's so disgusting!" Lin Xuejing said, feeling as if she mentioned something that shouldn't be said, so she hurriedly stopped and changed the topic.
In the past high school years, Nuan Yangyang has always been envious of Shu Ran, and every day - ah, the man named Nie used meat buns to fool Ran's sister again. It's really a real-life version of "the meat buns beat the dog and never come back!"
Nuan Yangyang compared Shu Ran to a docile and cute little dog, but after that, every time Nie was riding a bicycle here waiting for Shu Ran, he would also throw a bag of meat buns to the person following Shu Ran.
Nuan Yangyang, from then on, Nuan Yangyang kept shouting "handsome guy Nie", Lin Xuejing said, this is the realistic portrayal of "a meat bun beats a dog and never comes back"!
Nuan Yangyang was bribed by a meat bun!
Lin Xuejing's words silenced Shu Ran who was following behind her. Lin Xuejing quickly changed the subject, and the two of them walked around outside the apartment building where Shu Ran once lived. The two buildings side by side were still there, but all the windows were empty.
At this time, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the surrounding area was very quiet. Standing outside the low wall, Shu Ran heard Lin Xuejing's low cry. Following the direction Lin Xuejing's finger pointed, there was a light on one floor.
"Look, you are a house owner. This building has become a dilapidated building. How dare you live in it!" Lin Xuejing said, taking out the gum from her bag, peeling off the paper and stuffing it into her mouth. She handed one to Shu Ran, but looked at Shu Ran.
His expression was a little dazed, and he didn't take the chewing gum she handed him.
Shu Ran's eyes stopped on that floor. When she lowered her eyes, she couldn't help but laugh at herself. What was she doing here? She came here just thinking about it. Standing here, she also thought about too many things that had happened before.
, twenty-three years old, she feels like she is almost thirty-two.
"Let's go!" Shu Ran said softly, but after saying this, a trace of confusion emerged in her heart. Where should she go?
She looked at the dark night above her head. When she walked out of Zhang's house, she didn't even think about where she could go. She couldn't go to her father's side, and she couldn't go to Shu Tongya's side. And she didn't have a house of her own. She couldn't always live in Lin Xuejing's house.
!
Lin Xuejing responded after hearing this, turned around and took another look at the lighted place, and said "Huh", isn't that the floor where Nie Zhanyun's family once lived?
Shu Ran asked if she wanted to go and see if there were any Goubuli steamed buns. Lin Xuejing said yes, that steamed bun shop would also be open at night. It was past eight o'clock now, so it should still be open. The two of them went to that store from another road.
They walked to the intersection of the alley. That road was originally very close, but because some places had begun to be demolished recently, some roads were blocked by broken bricks. They had to find a temporary intersection to go out. When they got around to the main road,
It all happened more than half an hour later.
Lin Xuejing was panting, looking at the brightly lit bun shop in front of her, stroking her belly and laughing, "Yeah, Shu Ran, at that time I saw the advertisement for southern black sesame paste. The slogan was, 'When I was a kid, when I heard sesame paste
I can't sit still any longer. The friendly and long shouts, the sesame paste burden swaying in the sunset, I can't forget. The faint fragrance of sesame paste can't be wiped away, and that ray of warmth can't be forgotten.
Childhood memories! 'Look, I just remember this advertising slogan, and I have remembered it for so many years, and now this scene is so touching! Just change the 'sesame paste' to 'meat buns'!"
Shu Ran, who was walking in front, rolled her eyes at Lin Xuejing and walked quickly over there. It turned out that Lin Xuejing was running faster than her, and she was in a hurry as if she ran too slow, she would run out of steamed buns to eat!
When Shu Ran saw her friend rushing into the store, she slowed down. Just as she was about to follow him, she saw a figure flashing past the entrance of the alley. The figure looked a bit bloated under the light and was walking in a hurry. When she passed the store
The person standing at the door of the store seemed to be asking about something, but the clerk at the door didn't seem to know what the other person was asking. He waved his hand and pointed to where Shu Ran was standing, as if to remind the other person to come here.
You might find out if you ask.
Sure enough, the person turned around and looked at Shu Ran, and walked over eagerly. The night light made the shadow of the person walking long. She was a middle-aged woman of medium height.
, stood in front of Shu Ran and said politely when he came over, "Miss, do you know where the bus stop has been moved? Is it far from here?"
When Shu Ran heard the other party's voice, her heart jumped slightly. She raised her eyes and looked at the other party seriously. Because she was carrying a light, Shu Ran's vision was limited and she couldn't see her specific face clearly, so she whispered: "
The bus has moved to the street to the north. It's not far from here. You need to cross an overpass. If you keep walking along this road, you'll see the overpass at the end!"
"Thank you! Girl!" The woman thanked her hurriedly. When she turned to leave, Shu Ran wanted to remind her that it would be more convenient to take a taxi, because the taxi stand was not far away and there was no need to cross the overpass.
"Auntie, you can take a taxi back. The taxi stand is right in front!" Shu Ran took a step forward. The woman turned around and smiled, "The bus is cheaper!" Just after saying this, the woman's body
She paused for a moment, looked at Shu Ran, and began to look at her carefully. Just now, with the backlight, she didn't see clearly the true appearance of the girl in front of her. Now she looked at it -
Shu Ran was also stunned by what she saw, "Are you - Aunt Cui?"
Shu Tongya said that the Nie family was burned down by a fire, but this person in front of her!
The woman seemed stunned and didn't say anything for a long time. Then she stretched out her hand and held Shu Ran's hand, and asked in a probing manner, "Are you Ran Ran? Are you Ran Ran from downstairs?"
－－－－－－－Gorgeous dividing line－－－－－－－－－
In the Cruze, Lin Xuejing took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Aunt Cui who was sitting next to her. When she came out with the buns, she saw a middle-aged woman holding Shu Ran's hand. She was stunned and walked quickly.
Walking over, Shu Ran thought that she had encountered someone blackmailing her, but these days there are many people out there.
I didn’t expect to meet an old friend!
"Auntie, where are you going? I'll take you there!" Shu Ran asked. She now knew that the light in the house just now was probably Aunt Cui.
"No, of course, just take me to a bus stop and I can go back by myself!" As she said this, she looked anxiously out of the car window. The car had already driven out of the demolition area, and she was in the car.
, Aunt Cui's cell phone has rang many times, but Aunt Cui didn't answer it, but her expression became more anxious every time it rang.
"Auntie, why don't you answer the phone?" Lin Xuejing asked. Aunt Cui was a little embarrassed and hesitated for a while before whispering, "I, I didn't tell him that I was here. He didn't let me come over today.
I came here secretly just to take a look at the place where I once lived!"
Lin Xuejing knew without thinking that the 'him' in Aunt Cui's words should refer to Nie Zhanyun!
Emma, even if you go out for a walk in the middle of the night, you will encounter something related to him!
"Auntie, tell me the location and I'll take you there!" Shu Ran couldn't possibly leave her halfway. When she heard Aunt Cui's phone ringing again, she couldn't help but frown. In fact, she was usually very tired of this.
I have tried dialing the phone n times but still refuses to answer the phone.
Aunt Cui was also anxious. She held the phone in her hand and had no choice but to press the answer button. As expected, the call was from Nie Zhanyun. Aunt Cui kept hemming and hawing, and finally said aggrievedly that she just wanted to take a look.
I don’t know what was said on the phone. Aunt Cui was anxious and said, don’t worry, no one will know, it’s just Ranran and me. Ranran, you still can’t believe it?
As soon as Aunt Cui finished saying this, there was silence on the other side of the phone, but Aunt Cui handed the phone to Shu Ran, "Ran Ran, here it is!"
Shu Ran had no choice but to pull over and stop, feeling a little hesitant. She originally wanted to get out of the car and let Lin Xuejing take her there, but Aunt Cui's phone number had already been handed over.
She answered the phone. It was very quiet on the other side of the phone. They both spoke almost at the same time, but Shu Ran spoke faster and interrupted him, "Tell me the address and I'll send aunt over!"
The moment she hung up the phone, Shu Ran started the car. Lin Xuejing, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was heartbroken. Should she really send him there?
The car drove for about twenty minutes. When the Audi A8 parked on the roadside appeared in Shu Ran's sight, she slowed down and stopped steadily. Nie Zhanyun was already waiting under the car and saw Shu Ran.
Ran's car stopped and he walked over.
The luxury car following the bright red Cruze was illuminated by its headlights. Twenty meters ahead, a scene like this appeared. The man in a suit was leaning against the door of the driver's seat, leaning slightly.
I don’t know what I’m talking to the person sitting in the driver’s seat!
As for the left hand hanging on the car door, the silver bracelet on her left wrist glowed silvery under the light.
Under the blazing car lights, the silver light is cold, just like the gaze cast by the people in the car, it is so cold that it penetrates!
