Lin Xiao hung up the phone and sent a text message to Lin Mumu, telling the other party that she knew and asked her to pay attention to come back safely.
He bought some snacks for Lin Qian so that she could eat them easily while counting the days and planning to arrive in the village.
When the message finally showed that it had been signed for, he happened to be walking on the roadside of the school carrying his dinner, and he felt so moved that he told his sister to remember to pick it up.
As a result, before the message was sent out, I heard the girls in the previous class talking, "The two people who came this morning seem to be Lin Mumu's parents."
"I think they are well-dressed, how could they say that?"
"Yeah, it doesn't look like you're short of money. Why do you think you're so patriarchal in your mind?"
"What? This kind of thinking has nothing to do with whether you are rich or not."
Lin Xiao hurried up and asked, "Are you talking about Lin Mumu?"
His classmates knew that he was close to Lin Mumu, and many people thought that he was chasing Lin Mumu, "Yeah, didn't there two people come to our department this morning? It was our class leader's way, just to find Mumu."
Lin Xiao knew a little about Lin Mumu's family situation, "What do they want from her?"
"I didn't say anything specific, but looking at their expressions, it felt like it wasn't a good thing. Fortunately, Mumu asked for leave and wasn't at school."
A female classmate asked Lin Xiao, "Do you know when Mu Mu will come back?"
Lin Xiao shook his head, "I don't know either."
"We don't know what's going on with Lin Mumu's family," another girl said, "but I think we should tell her about this, or call her and talk to her."
"The class teacher must have called me. There's no need to call again, right?"
The girl who suggested making a call said, "Let's make a call." She took out her mobile phone and said, "Even if the class teacher called Lin Mumu, I don't know what he said, so I will just tell you what we saw.
tell her."
As soon as I spoke, I pressed call, but what came over the phone was a notification that the other party's phone had been turned off.
"What's going on?"
Lin Xiao knew that Lin Mumu was going through a catastrophe and most of her cellphones had been destroyed. "Maybe she forgot to bring the charger after going out for a few days."
"Something's wrong." The girl who called just now looked at Lin Xiao and said, "You usually care so much about Mu Mu, why are you so relieved today? You weren't the one who turned off Mu Mu's phone, right? Her phone won't be with you
Put it on you!"
The girl next to her grabbed her and said, "Oh, please stop watching the detective videos. Everyone is a murderer now. He lived in the dormitory all day and never went out. There is no condition for committing a crime."
Only then did Lin Xiao know what the two questions just meant, and looked at the girl with a horrified look.
Three more days later, Lin Mumu came back.
She succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, and her whole person looked very different from before. There was not much change in appearance, but she looked a little strange to this person.
Lin Xiao excitedly went to pick her up at the school gate. He thought that Lin Mumu would be happy to see him for the rest of her life, but the other party seemed very calm.
A burst of enthusiasm was poured on cold water. Lin Xiao was sensitive and began to wonder. She would get distracted when editing videos at night.
It was Lin Qian's call that made him come back to his senses, "Sister, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing. Dad misses you. You haven't called home in a few days?"
It must have been more than five days since Lin Mumu called Lin Qian on the day he went to escape the tribulation, but he had not called home.
"I was thinking about other things and forgot about it." Lin Xiao blamed herself, "I'm sorry, sister."
"What's wrong with this?" Lin Qian handed the phone to Dad Lin next to him, "You two talk about it."
Lin's father was naturally concerned about Lin Xiao's learning problems and asked him how he was doing with his driver's license studies.
The two of them talked according to a fixed process. When they finished speaking, the two of them fell into an awkward silence.
"You should take care of your health when you are alone outside." Father Lin finally warned: "If you need anything, don't forget to call home. If you have time, call home. If you are busy, there is no need to call home every day, you know?
"
"I know the second uncle, you should also take care of yourselves." After Lin Xiao said that, he felt that his care was unnecessary. With his sister here, he would definitely take good care of the second uncle and two aunts.
"That's it." Father Lin was about to hang up the phone, but Lin Xiao said, "Wait a minute, second uncle, give the phone to my sister. I have something to tell her."
Lin Qian turned off the speakerphone and picked up the phone, "What's the matter?"
"Sister, Mumu is back, did you know?"
"I know what this is for?" Lin Qian chewed the dried sweet potatoes, "Where can I buy the dried sweet potatoes? They are very delicious. Buy a few more kilograms and send them to me."
"……All right."
"Sister, for the sake of dried sweet potatoes, can I ask you a question?"
"explain."
"I always feel that Lin Mumu has changed when she comes back this time. She is very different from before. I feel that the way she looks at me has become very distant."
"Isn't this normal?" Lin Qian said, "She has survived the thunder tribulation and died once. There is nothing in daily life that she cannot see through.
If you feel that she is alienated from you, it is actually you who has noticed that your nature is different.
After all, you are an ordinary person, and the distance between you and her will only grow wider in the future."
Lin Xiao asked back: "But you are also a cultivator, why can't I feel the difference between us?"
Lin Qian said: "Because the me you see is just the me I want you to see."
