Like wind

Lu Lin ushered in the first day of 2008 in his sleep.

Many things happened in this year, such as the large-scale snowfall and low temperature disaster in January, which swept almost the entire south; then a major earthquake occurred in Wenchuan in May, and the infrasound transmission almost spread to the whole world; It was held in Beijing, and the whole country was jubilant. It was an important milestone in the history of the country's development and represented international significance. After that, a turbulent financial crisis broke out in October. Waves struggling to find that floating plank; and Jolin Tsai signing with Warner Records in the dead of December.

The least important thing is that the restaurant that Qiu Yu took him to had completely closed down.

When all these seemingly ordinary things that had nothing to do with Lu Lin happened in a series, countless coincidences became inevitable.

Like a butterfly flapping its wings on the other side of the quiet Nile, maybe somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean there is an eye of a storm.

These seemingly important things to the world can be seen as a series of chain reactions caused by an inadvertent beginning, gradually growing from a small storm eye to a hurricane, and Lu Lin's change is just that it landed after the wind weakened extremely. The coolness brought by it is so small.

When I woke up in the morning, the first ray of sunshine in the new year hit my body, and that intoxicating light was just like the Qiu Yu I saw back then.

Hua Rou didn't go to work today, and was ready to go out after breakfast with Lu Lin.

"Want to go to the supermarket with me?" Lu Lin nodded after confirming the stock of the refrigerator just yesterday.I took a green bag and went out with my mother.

The mother and son walked side by side on the deserted street. They had walked this street for many years and were very familiar with it.Where is there a drainage outlet? Under which tree used to be a wild taro plant with lush green leaves. People who don’t know it may think it’s a rare plant, and the breakfast shop that opens late every day is all the same. They are familiar.

Lu Lin likes this feeling very much, living according to his own steps, and does not change a lot because of others.However, he hadn't even noticed that Qiu Yu was subtly watering him with the seeds called dependence.

It's just that the power of family affection is greater than the most fundamental desire of the human body, and it is temporarily suppressed.

Soon at the supermarket, Hua Rou walked to the freezer and asked Lu Lin, "Do you still have frozen food at home?" She was too busy with work to cook instant food for herself.

"Ah."

"Then let's buy some daily necessities and go home, it's really cold here. Cough..."

"Okay, so you don't catch a cold." The cough that had almost faded the image of the boy reappeared, and Lu Lin became nervous again.

"It's okay, it's just a little cold in here."

"Let's go then."

Lu Lin and Hua Rou bought some vegetables, meat, and some fish.He walked out the door carrying a large plastic bag. He couldn't get used to using one hand for a while, so he turned to carry it sideways.

"It's great to have a son, he can help me carry things." Hua Rou looked at Lu Lin with a smile on the side, "It's only at this time that I can enjoy it."

For some reason, he felt very bitter in his heart.

Is this how mothers come these days?

He became more determined to work hard, but soon after, he began to abandon his armor and surrender.

The sharp-eyed Huarou found a conspicuous silver Bentley parked 50 meters away from the supermarket, and some young man came to pick up his Cinderella again.

Of course, Lu Lin didn't have the same eyesight as his mother, and he still walked in the direction of going home, waiting for the shadow to cover him without any precautions.

A tall figure in a black windbreaker got off the car and walked straight to Lu Lin.The latter was touched by the shoulder and just wanted to look back to see who it was, when he was twisted in front of him by a strong force.

The man stared at his prey with the eyes of a poisonous snake staring at a frog.

The bag in Lu Lin's hand almost fell off, "Why are you here?!"

"I said, I will come to pick you up." His voice sounded a little hoarse today, and he didn't know what happened.

"Do you have a cold? The voice doesn't sound right." Lu Lin asked hastily seeing that her mother hadn't followed.

"It's okay, I've already taken my medicine."

"Pay attention to your body." Although he has decided not to waste too much time on him, this does not prevent him from giving the boy the attention he deserves.

"Is that my mother-in-law standing over there?" Qiu Yu asked Lu Lin suddenly, but he didn't react yet.

At this time, Hua Rou who saw Lu Lin talking with a strange boy came over.

"Linlin, who is this?"

"Mom, this is Qiu Yu, I'm at the same table. This is my mother." The first meeting between Hua Rou and Qiu Yu began with Lu Lin's brief introduction.

"Hi aunt, Lu Lin and I are very good friends, he often helps me." Qiu Yu smiled decently.

"That's right, Lu Lin's personality is a little withdrawn, and you need to be more tolerant." Hua Rou responded politely when Qiu Yu praised her son like this.

"Where is the matter, I have to be on par with him in many things."

"I still don't understand him? By the way, did you come to play with him today?" Hua Rou seemed to think of something.

"Ah."

She looked up at Qiu Yu, then turned to Lu Lin and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"

"finished."

"Then go play, there's nothing to do at home anyway." Hua Rou said unexpectedly, agreeing with Lu Lin's behavior of going to a classmate's house to play.

But Lu Lin didn't think so. He felt that his mother was a little abnormal recently.

"You're not born..." Before he could finish speaking, Huarou took him by the hand and pulled him in front of Qiu Yu, and quickly left his hand like a volleyball being thrown.

"Linlin, don't cling to your mother every day when you're so old, and don't learn to be a nerd. Go play with your classmates."

Lu Lin frowned, and looked down at the huge plastic bag still in her hand. Did she want to carry it back by herself?

"Auntie, why don't I take you home first, so it's not too late for Lu Lin to pack up." Qiu Yu sensed the embarrassment between the mother and son, and smoothed things over. "Get in the car first, it's really cold today."

"Thank you." Hua Rou smiled at Qiu Yu.

Li Mu was still driving, his lazy look changed after Huarou got in the car, and there was a curious signal in his eyes.

"Where?"

"I'll teach you how to walk later, Lu Lin lives in a place where it's hard to know the way."

"Row."

Seeing that Qiu Yu knew his family well, Lu Lin really wanted to ask a lot of questions right now.He tugged on the boy's sleeve and spoke to him in a low voice.

"Do you really know where my home is?"

The boy smiled, his voice soft.

"Of course I don't know, just tell me."

"..."

"Why don't you tell Uncle Li yourself?"

"I'm afraid you won't understand."

"You look down on me too much." Qiu Yugang's outstretched hand stopped next to his jacket pocket, and then retracted.After all, you can't be too rampant in front of your future husband and mother.

Immediately, Lu Lin whispered the location in Qiu Yu's ear in detail.

Ten minutes later, Lu Lin and Hua Rou were already standing downstairs in their house, and Qiu Yu was waiting for Lu Lin in the car, but did not follow.

"Let's go out today and have fun." Mom once again said to herself in a persuasive tone, "Just help me carry things up."

In fact, the moment Lu Lin saw Qiu Yu arriving as promised, his mind was completely occupied by that figure, and he couldn't think about anything else at all.He has adapted to the life of being able to see Qiu Yu at any time every day, and it seems that a piece of his heart is missing after not seeing him for a while.

The longing for him in his heart was like adding fuel to the fire, rising immediately, while the concern for his mother was being burned out bit by bit.For a moment, Lu Lin felt that Hua Rou was just a burden to him, and he had to take care of it himself.

Now that she has no objection to going out with Qiu Yu, she is naturally overjoyed.

"What should you do if you have no one to take care of you?" Lu Lin's voice showed a trace of anxiety, as if he couldn't wait to meet the boy, "I can't leave you at home alone, can I?"

It was the last remaining oasis of his eroded interior.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, you already helped me buy medicine." Hua Rou comforted Lu Lin, how could she not understand her son?

As an adolescent boy, it's time for me to let go; however, I don't know how many more years I can hold on.

Seeing Huarou's relieved look, Lu Lin felt guilty in his heart, and for a while, he hesitated to speak.

"A proper balance between work and rest is a must. Go ahead and don't make your classmates wait."

"I'm leaving."

"have fun."

After closing the door, Huarou's PHS showed many unread text messages, which seemed to be received just now.

It is impossible for humans to notice that when Huarou walked out of the supermarket, the nerves in her thigh muscles felt the vibration of the mobile phone in her trouser pocket, and she knew it was a text message without even thinking about it.If it was just a text message, it might be a scam; but after a series of text messages, her body trembled slightly uncontrollably, her fingers clasped the phone, wanting to take it out to read the content.But seeing Lu Lin in sight, she still held back.

I have to wait for Lu Lin to leave and watch it by myself.
