It rains in this city, especially in the second half of the year when the amount of rain increases. It seems to have become something people are used to.? ?
While the sun was still shining in the afternoon, strong winds blew in the evening, and before seven o'clock in the evening, it started to rain heavily.
But the heavy rain came and went quickly. Around eight o'clock in the evening, it turned into a drizzle.
The gentle rain could not find a break.
…
A burst of chill made Xue Xi wake up from his desk. Before that, he had to rush back to the company in the afternoon because he took half a day off during the day to accompany Wan Zishan, and had to work overtime in order to complete the task at hand.
Work.
He was busy until about six o'clock. Because he was too tired from work, he originally planned to take a rest, but fell asleep unknowingly.
But Xue Nao had a dream, a dream from a long, long time ago.
It was his birthday, and the girl in his memory didn't show up all day long. Just when he was disappointed because he thought she didn't know, the girl stood up gently on her tiptoes when he was saying goodbye on the way home.
A gentle kiss on the face.
The girl said that this was not a birthday gift, but this was. Then the girl took out a necklace and put it around his neck with her own hands. She said that her mother had left it for her and asked him to wear it all the time.
The dream stopped suddenly because I woke up.
Xue Si was sitting alone in an office with only a dimly lit laptop screen, turning his chair and looking at the thin rain outside. He subconsciously touched his chest.
There is always a necklace here, and he never leaves it. The necklace is not a valuable thing, it is just a pendant worn by a simple rope... As for the pendant, it is a brown crescent shape.
Xue Xi looked at the rain... It seemed that rainy days always stirred up a little bit of sadness.
He couldn't help but ask himself whether every man would always be in the same state as he was before marriage... always thinking of some past relationships uncontrollably.
Especially, the first love that ends in vain...
Maybe it's not just men, but women too... they always feel some things uncontrollably. Even if they don't want to, they can't resist the sudden bits and pieces full of sweetness and bitterness.
In fact, times have changed, and Xue Si originally thought that he had forgotten it long ago, or had buried it deep in his memory. Later...when he was truly mature, truly qualified, and truly able to smile knowingly, he would go back.
Open it.
He planned this because he could not deny that he was so sincere to his current fiancée.
"Perhaps it's really because before marriage... I'm about to enter another state." Xue Ma breathed a sigh of relief, "But..."
Xue Nao firmly grasped the small crescent moon on his body through his clothes.
But...just because he was about to enter another stage, he didn't want to still have these thoughts. "Stop escaping, let's understand it."
Xue Si suddenly picked up the phone and waited for a while, "Hey, monitor, it's me, Xue Si."
"Xue Xi, what's wrong? Are you looking for me at this time?"
"Nothing...am I getting married soon?"
, I just couldn’t find her.”
"Xu Jiayi...ah, I haven't heard this name for a long time." The squad leader suddenly smiled and said: "I remember you, kid, always had a crush on someone else when you were in school, right? What? You still can't forget it. You want to see your old lover before marriage. Come here.
A friendship cannon?"
"Squad leader, don't be ridiculous." Xue Si said quickly: "I really want to write an invitation... Well, even if I don't write it, I should tell you."
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore. Everyone knows who you are, a man who is almost extinct. That time my brothers went to the Kasang Room to play, and we had one girl for each one. But you, kid, go out by yourself.
After singing all night, you can even make me fly together! How can you bear it? I even doubt whether you are impotent!"
"Monitor!"
"Okay, okay, don't say it, don't say it."
The monitor paused for a moment, "But I don't have Xu Jiayi's contact information. During the Chinese New Year, I held a class reunion and I don't know who I heard from someone saying that she flew all over the world and was almost impossible to find. I guess I can't help you.
.”
"That's it... then forget it, there is nothing we can do." Xue Si said: "Squad leader, remember to collect the post and come on time! If you don't come, we will never contact you again in this life."
"Holy shit... I can crawl over, okay?"
"Stop talking, I'm going home from get off work."
Xue Na turned off the phone and showed a wry smile.
…
When leaving the company, Xue Xi gave Wan Zishan a phone call to report that she was safe...but he didn't know the restlessness coming from there, so he didn't go home immediately while driving.
Instead, he came to the downstairs of the woman's house in his memory.
Looking up, I saw the location on the sixth floor...the room close to the road. His family lived nearby at that time.
Just as the old monitor said, he had been secretly in love with that girl before he even started.
I can't forget the face I saw in front of the school gate when the new student entered school, I can't forget the smile on that face... I can't forget the scene when the wind lifts the girl's silk threads.
When he passed by here, he always looked at the window silently, hoping that the girl might poke her head out.
But now the lights are no longer on in this old house, the iron railings on the balcony are rusty, and there are no curtains on the windows...it's just an empty house.
Sure enough, you can't open that box casually.
Standing in this place where I have waited silently for countless dusk... As expected, I still cannot casually open this box buried deep in my heart.
"Xu Jiayi, you're leaving now. You're going abroad as soon as you say you're going abroad... You didn't even give me a way to contact you." Xue Nao stretched out his hand from the umbrella, let the drizzle fall on his palm, and murmured to himself
Said: "Even...don't you say a word to me?"
He took a deep breath, turned and left.
Turn around and go to where he parked his car... The road is not long, only about a hundred meters away.
Xue Nao smiled bitterly... Maybe I shouldn't ask too much about the wishing tree today. Is it because I heard that it was going to be cut down that I became a little... abnormal?
He walked silently holding an umbrella.
In the dark place of the street lamp, there are two simple foreign lanterns dotting it.
"Is there... such a shop here?" Xue Ma frowned slightly, subconsciously looking at the rather dim looking shop in front of the shop.
He didn't notice...the streets around him were different from before. He even ignored the silence here...the silence was unusual.
He subconsciously walked to the door of this store, and something seemed to attract him.
Xue Na put away her umbrella, shook off the rainwater from her umbrella, and tried to push open the pine door in front of the store.
There is a sound of bells.
There are warm lights.
The moment he came in, Xue Si didn't seem to feel the coldness of the rainy street outside. It was very warm here.
"Welcome, how can I help you, guest."
…
"So...guest, you want to see your first love again, right?" the boss asked softly.
"I...I'm not sure." Xue Xi shook his head, and was still nervous, looking at everything in front of him nervously.
He already knew some things about this store...and after the mysterious owner revealed his tricks, he had to believe these things.
But he still had lingering fears in his heart: How could he encounter such a strange place?
The only thing that could make Xue Xing calm down and not be too frightened is that... this place is actually not scary, and it is not like the movies or those demonic places in it, with fangs and horns, hell fire, and blood stains. And this person
Although the boss wears a rather scary mask, he looks extremely polite.
He has always respected and maintained the strictest etiquette to treat this so-called 'respected guest'.
This boss and his maid Wan Zishan said that she saw a perfect woman, but he felt that only the woman in front of him could be considered perfect, right?
It's just... a little colder.
"Not sure?"
Boss Luo thought for a while and said: "Guest, if you are not sure, the sale will not be completed. So, please think carefully. Because once the sale is decided, it cannot be reversed."
"Can I know the price first?"
I will not and am not willing to affect my fiancée after marriage because of my selfishness."
"The guest seems to still love your fiancée very much." Boss Luo nodded, "In this case, why are you still entangled in the past?"
Xue Nao smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know if you understand how difficult and painful it is to forget someone. Especially when you can't do it all and know that you have to love the next one wholeheartedly.
human time."
"So you want a result?"
Xue Na nodded: "I want a result, but if I ruin the next wedding and life after marriage for this result, I will choose not to... So, I need to know what the price is first."
"Hmm." Boss Luo thought for a while and then said softly: "According to your request as a guest, there is probably only one thing that is suitable for you...the necklace you are wearing."
"Necklace?" Xue Nao was stunned.
You should always carry it with you, just like you always carry me with you.
Boss Luo nodded and said, "Yes, the value of this necklace is enough to fulfill your request."
"Don't take what's important to me...but you also have to take what's important to me." Xue Nao smiled bitterly, and suddenly sighed: "There is no free lunch in the world, I only want one result. No, I
I just want to end things with the past, and since I want to end it, then... just get naked."
He untied the necklace from his body and gently placed it in front of the mysterious boss.
"No, you take it first." Boss Luo said calmly: "We have signed the contract first, and we will not take away your necklace until the product is delivered to you."
