After returning home, Yun Zaiye washed his hands and rushed into the kitchen. After a while, there was a burst of fragrance from the kitchen.

"Dad, Dad~" Yun Zaiye held the spatula in one hand, and pushed open the kitchen door with the other, "Wash your hands and come over and serve some food!"

"Hey, okay." Mr. Yun Gang, who had just come out of the bathroom and hadn't sat down for a while, was being commanded by his son again.

When Mrs. Yun washed off her exhaustion and regained her girlish brilliance, the dinner was almost done—pickled fish, tomato tofu soup, fried pork slices with kale, steamed green tomato, and a bowl of black rice.

"Not bad, son, can mom still eat the meals you cook yourself?" Mrs. Yun joked, "Oh, the cooking is okay, but it's not as delicious as your dad's."

...He knew that his mother wanted to show her affection! ! !

"Okay, okay, it's not as good as my dad, you just have to save face..." Yun Zaiye worked hard to cooperate with his mother, and looked helplessly at his doting old father, "Dad, it's all because of you." My mother is spoiled, look how harsh it is!"

Mr. Yun was chatting, while serving food for his daughter-in-law...

Looking at his parents, Yun Zaiye began to imagine his future life for the first time - what kind of girl would she be?What will the home of the two of you look like in the future?Will they quarrel?Then I should let her...

At that time, Qi Fengyao had just returned home.

He went to the suburbs and set fire to everything related to his parents.There is only one pendant of Pixiu, which my mother begged for me from the temple when I was a child. I didn't like to wear these things before, but now I hang it safely around my neck.

The house was empty, and there was not even a single photo left.

Qi Fengyao went straight to the bedroom where his parents lived and locked the door.From upstairs to downstairs, I carefully looked at every corner, and after making sure that nothing related to my parents was left behind, I slowly sat on the floor in the middle of the living room.Looking around, this is not like a home - no coffee table, no sofa, no dining table... Even the kitchen is empty, without a trace of smoke, clean as if no one has ever lived.

After a long while, Qi Fengyao took out his mobile phone, "Hello, is this the XX agency? I have a house here that I want to sell, can you send someone over to take a look..."

After making an appointment, Qi Fengyao went upstairs to turn on the computer and started looking for a room near Nanchuan University.

At night, Qi Fengyao was lying on the bed. This was the last night he spent here. His 18 years of life full of happiness and misfortune were here, and it was time to say goodbye to this place.

Early the next morning, Qi Fengyao was woken up by his cell phone.

"Hello?" His voice was hoarse and scary.

"Feng... Fengyao? Is that you?" Meng Yuan's cautious voice came from the phone.

"It's me, what's wrong?"

"I just want to ask you if you are back from your trip, and I want to ask you out for a stroll..."

"Not during this time, I'm preparing to move."

"Moving? Why do you want to move so well? Where do you want to move?"

"Go to Nanchuan, let's not talk about it, we're done talking."

Meng Yuan looked at the phone that was suddenly hung up in his hand, did something happen?Although Feng Yao is cold and indifferent, it will never be like this...

After hanging up the phone, Qi Fengyao sat on the bed in a daze, then got up and started packing his suitcase.Thanks to the six years of study in middle school and high school, except for the school uniform, he usually wears very little clothes, and with a few pairs of shoes, Qi Fengyao's 18 years of life can be comfortably accommodated in a small suitcase.

Before yesterday, Qi Fengyao never knew that his father still had a property in Nanchuan.It wasn't until the lawyer came to him yesterday that he didn't know that besides his father's shares in the company, his savings over the years, and this house, there was another apartment in Nanchuan.The area is small, only more than 90 square meters, but the location is in a community not far from Nanchuan University... The most important thing is that it was half a month ago, the day after he decided to go to Nanchuan University after reconciling with his parents , the purchase agreement for this apartment was signed, and the owner's name was signed "Qi Fengyao".

This is the second time for him to take the bus to Nanchuan, he still has the same seat as last time, and he is still alone... It seems that there is no change, but it seems that everything is different.

Take out the earphones, close your eyes... Qi Fengyao still doesn't know how difficult his future is, and he doesn't know that his unfortunate life is far more than that.

It was already afternoon when we arrived in Nanchuan.Jump off the bus, drag your luggage, flag down a taxi, announce the name of the community, and then put on the earphones to isolate yourself from the world... All the actions are familiar and smooth, as if you have done it thousands of times. Thousands of general proficiency.

"Young man, we're here!" the driver greeted.

"Okay, thank you." After paying the money, Qi Fengyao dragged out the luggage from the trunk and walked towards the community.The environment is not bad, there are supermarkets and shopping malls around, and it is also very convenient, and Nanchuan University is just across a crossroad... It turned out that my father kept silent because all the love was in every move.

I pushed open the door, changed the password, and turned on the lights. I bought all the basic furniture and home appliances in the house, probably because I bought it not long ago and there was no dust.

I don't know what requirements and principles my father used to choose this apartment, but unexpectedly, Qi Fengyao liked the structure of this apartment very much.Compared with my previous house, although it is much smaller, it is enough to live alone. The living room is not big, but the balcony after going out is spacious. There are two bedrooms, one for sleeping and the other for study, open plan The kitchen and dining room...

Qi Fengyao took out the clothes in the suitcase and hung them to dry on the balcony, then sent a few books to the study room, and walked into the bathroom with his nightgown.The water at just the right temperature gradually spread over the boy's waistline, then over his chest, and then wrapped around his thin shoulders... Qi Fengyao closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the bathtub, letting the water overflow out of the bathtub and wet a large area floor.

It feels like his life is a joke from the heavens. The calmness of the first 17 years seems to be a compensation for the ups and downs of this year...

When I came out of the bathroom, it was already dark.Qi Fengyao poured himself a glass of water, sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought—maybe he came to this world alone at the beginning, and now he wants to live alone.In fact, there is nothing wrong with being alone. The loneliness that others fear is actually the most suitable for you.In fact, I have always been fascinated by the word loneliness. It is like a shell clinging to the soul, cold and thorough.Walking on an empty street corner in the middle of the night, humming softly with earphones plugged in, drinking recklessly and getting drunk, and then collapsed in the room unable to cry...

Untimely, on a night when he was supposed to miss his parents who passed away, what he remembered was the person who had always occupied the position closest to his heart——Yun Zaiye.

Where is he now?what are you doing?Who is around him?Do you occasionally think of your cheeky self in the afternoon?

Yun Zaiye, for you, I set the height of my life so high.So that all the joys in the world are lost to me.I grew up savagely and failed to become my own moon. To meet you is the sugar that the Milky Way gave me.

Lying on the sofa, he just fell into a deep sleep, hoping to have a new life of his own starting tomorrow.After all, this thing in the past is sometimes like a cage, trapping people to death, as if strangling the throat, making people fester until death...

The next day, Qi Fengyao, who hadn't gotten rid of the biological clock established in high school, woke up a little after six o'clock.Probably because I didn't eat last night, my stomach hurts, it's time to go out and buy something.Swipe open the phone and see a message from a contact, click on it and it's Meng Yuan's message: Fengyao, happy birthday!Welcome to your life (*^▽^*)

So today is your birthday?Looking at the date, July 7th, it turns out that I have become an adult unconsciously, but obviously this year's birthday gift is not very good.

After replying with "thank you", Qi Fengyao turned off his phone and walked into the bathroom.While brushing my teeth, I was thinking about the shopping list that I will go to the supermarket later...

Fortunately, there is a large supermarket nearby, otherwise it would be a big problem when I move back home.Qi Fengyao pushed the shopping cart, walked to the freezer, and picked out quick-frozen items.I looked up inadvertently, and saw a vague but somewhat familiar figure in the vegetable area——Yun Zaiye!

Qi Fengyao put down the things in his hands and walked towards the vegetable area, is that him?Is that next to his mother?It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right?But the vicinity of Nanchuan University is not impossible...Suddenly, the person in front of him turned around and met his gaze.Unable to dodge in time, Qi Fengyao stood where he was.Yun Zaiye obviously recognized him, said a few words to his mother, and then walked towards him.

"I shouldn't admit my mistake, right? Hello, I'm Yun Zaiye." He took the initiative to reach out his hand.

"Ah... hello, my name is Qi Fengyao." A little nervous, Yun Zaiye's mother seemed to be still looking at her.

"I've been in the library since that day, why didn't you come again? Does your family live nearby?"

"After that day, I kept studying and preparing for the exam, and it didn't go too far... I just moved here yesterday."

"That's fine, you go shopping first, I won't bother you." Yun Zaiye smiled at him, "We'll talk again when we have a chance, goodbye."

"Okay, goodbye." Qi Fengyao greeted, smiled at Yun Zaiye's mother, immediately turned around and pushed the shopping cart to the back of the next shelf.

You can also meet here, probably the first gift you received on your birthday!

Thank you for allowing me to meet you again on this day when I am preparing to start a new life.You are a gift from life to me, and also a bit of starlight that lights up the way forward in my not-so-bright life.
