Wait till the sun rises

The single room in the hotel was dimly lit, and Xu Jiming was sitting on the head of the bed, holding the mobile phone in his hand, and tapped lightly with his slender fingers when the screen of the mobile phone was about to go off.

The phone book was opened on the page of the phone, and Xu Jiming's slender fingers slid on Xia Yang's name, but he didn't click on it for a long time.

Xia Yang's cell phone number from seven years ago is saved in his cell phone, and this number has long been memorized.

It's just that so many years have passed, this account should have been vacant long ago.

The time on the phone showed one o'clock in the morning, Xu Jiming looked at the light reflected on the black screen, and felt as if he saw the sun.

He put his mobile phone aside and stepped on the soft carpet with his bare feet. He walked over and opened the curtains. There were still people who hadn't returned on the street, and taxis came and went to pick up people who didn't know where they would park.

Xu Jiming looked at his own figure reflected on the glass, tall and young, but there was no light in those eyes, a deathly darkness.

Xu Jiming slightly bent his lips and looked at the occasional passing taxi outside the car, thinking: "It's so late, where are you, who are you with, and what are you doing?"

The night was silent, Xu Jiming stood for a while, then drew the curtains, and after turning off the lights in the room, the room was completely plunged into darkness, without the slightest light.As if the sky would never dawn again, Xu Jiming thought wildly, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

·

"Good morning, what do you want to eat?" The proprietress of the breakfast shop was very enthusiastic.

Xu Jiming said: "A cup of soy milk, thank you." It was already eight o'clock in the morning, Xu Jiming was a little annoyed when he opened his eyes and saw the time, but deep down he knew that he was relieved.

Anyway, getting up late, Xu Jiming thought he would come to see him at night. Xia Yang told the neighbor that Grandpa Xia went to an old friend's house. Xia Yang was working overtime these days and came back late at night. He even kindly provided Xia Yang's mobile phone number.

After Xu Jiming finished his breakfast, a piece of paper fell out of his wallet when he was paying. Xu Jiming bent down to press it, and found that it was the address Han Ling gave him when he left home yesterday.Xu Jiming thought for a while, and decided to go to this place first to see what his mother put there.

After taking a taxi, an hour later, Xu Jiming stood in front of the door of that address. It was a family with a small yard. The yard was clean and tidy, and several pots of evergreens were neatly placed on one side of the yard.

Xu Jiming rang the doorbell, and the door was opened after a while, and a middle-aged woman in home clothes walked out, with light makeup on her face and a pair of glasses hanging on the bridge of her nose, she looked like an intellectual. molecular.

Seeing Xu Jiming standing at the door, the woman was taken aback, and came over and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Xu Jiming said: "Hi, I don't know if you know Han Ling, I'm here..."

"Ah, you know that, right?" The woman smiled before Xu Jiming finished speaking. He opened the courtyard door and said, "Quick, come in and sit down."

"Look, this child still has something to bring, just come by yourself." The woman smiled and led Xu Jiming into the door, Xu Jiming touched his nose, got up and took the tea handed by the woman.

"Your mother and I are friends, have you just returned to China?"

"Yes, I have just been back for a few days."

The woman smiled and swept Xu Jiming around with her soft eyes, and the smile on her face deepened.He also asked about Xu Jiming's situation in recent years, where he planned to develop, and what plans he had for the future.

Xu Jiming felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, his face was almost frozen with laughter, but since the other party was a good friend of his mother, it was inconvenient for him to say anything if he was an elder, so he only regarded her as caring about the younger generation.Xu Jiming sat for a while, finally got up and said, "Auntie, what, Mom asked me to come..."

The smile on the woman's face became stronger, she nodded and said: "I know, I know. But our girl, although it's the weekend, is very busy with work, why don't you stay here for a meal."

Xu Jiming: "..." Did he misunderstand something?

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man walked in. The woman got up and said, "You're back? It's early today."

"Old Liu and the others are busy, and I don't have any interest in being alone, so I came back." The man bent down to change his shoes, and took off his coat.

"Are there any guests?" When the man took off his coat, he was a little surprised to see Xu Jiming sitting on the sofa.

The woman got up and took the coat he took off, and said, "This is the son of Han Ling's family."

Xu Jiming stood up and said, "Hello, Uncle."

The middle-aged man and his wife looked at each other and said with a smile, "It's Xiao Xu, sit down quickly."

"Did you just return home?"

"...Yes." Xu Jiming sat on the sofa with his back straight, and answered all the questions asked by the lady just now. Seeing the satisfied expression on the man's face, Xu Jiming finally came to his senses belatedly. Come on, this seems to be the scene where the father-in-law and mother-in-law meet the son-in-law.

He was shocked by this idea, but after thinking about it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was true. While the couple were talking, he took out his mobile phone and prepared to send a text message to his mother.

——"How is it? Have you seen Yangyang?"

——"You can play for a few more days."

——"Don't forget to help mom get things."

Xu Jiming pursed his lips and replied, "Mom, what do you need from me?"

Han Ling replied quickly - "Are you here?"

——"Have you seen her girl? Are you satisfied? If you like it, develop it. You are not young."

Xu Jiming: "..." It really is a blind date.

I didn't expect to be tricked by my mother as soon as I returned to China.He took a deep breath, put the phone back in his pocket, stood up and said, "Auntie."

The woman was coming out of the bedroom, she smiled and said, "Xiao Xu, what's the matter?"

Just at this time, the door was not closed tightly, and Xu Jiming heard the suppressed and angry voice of the man in the room - "I don't care what happens to you, you must go home for me today."

"How old are you? Do you want your parents to worry about you? They are very good boys, you..." The man said angrily, "You, you really want to piss me off."

The woman closed the door in embarrassment, and pulled Xu Jiming to the sofa, "Well, our girl is busy with work, you know, it's almost the end of the year. Don't worry about it, you..."

Xu Jiming held the woman's hand behind his back, and said with a smile, "It's okay, Auntie, I made an appointment with a friend at noon, and I just stopped by to have a look."

The woman wondered: "Then, look, you really don't want to stay for a meal?"

Xu Jiming said: "No, Auntie, I really need to trouble you."

·

Xu Jiming left as if fleeing. He took a taxi and returned to the city.Leaning on the taxi, Xu Jiming let out a slow breath.

The longer the time dragged on, the courage in my heart began to dissipate.

Xu Jiming was sitting on the bed in the hotel, and the things he planned to give to Xia Yang and grandpa were sent to the aunt's house just now.Xu Jiming pulled his hair angrily, and was going to go to the department store to buy some again.

At noon, people came and went on the long street, and Xu Jiming pushed the shopping cart to buy the items he needed.

He pushed the shopping cart and put things in it while looking at it. When he reached the fork, a woman pushed the shopping cart and bumped into him. The shelf crashed and collapsed.

"I'm really sorry, I, I didn't see anyone." An apologetic female voice rang in his ears, Xu Jiming helplessly picked up the box that had just been dropped on the floor, and said, "It's nothing, just be more careful next time."

"Xu Jiming?" The woman suddenly called out his name, Xu Jiming looked up and saw the woman's face clearly, his eyes lit up, and said: "Sister!"

·

Inside a stylish restaurant.

Xu Jiming sat face to face with the woman.

The woman was wearing a white down jacket, with long wavy hair hanging behind her back, and light makeup on her face, she was very beautiful. "I really didn't expect you to go back to China." The woman took a sip of water and said with a smile, "It's really fate to see you in China."

Xu Jiming nodded and said, "Yes, I just came back not long ago."

"I remember, your home is in Dragon City, right?"

Xu Jiming said, "You, I'm here to see... my friend."

The woman rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "I saw it, buying so many health care products. It must be the elders."

"Well, what has senior been up to lately?"

"Work." The woman smiled, "Sister is a strong woman, she wants to break out of her own world."

"pretty good."

The dishes were served one after another, and the two chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After the lunch was over, the two of them left the store. The woman suddenly sneezed and hugged her arm. Xu Jiming glanced at it and said with a smile, "Your coat."

"Ah, my coat—" the woman was a little annoyed, "I left it on the chair and forgot to take it."

Xu Jiming shook his head helplessly, and said, "Wait, I'll get it." After walking a few steps, he turned around again, took off his overcoat and put it on the woman under the woman's puzzled eyes.

The woman let out a sigh, then wrapped her clothes tightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, when I grow up, I know how to hurt people."

Xu Jiming said with a smile: "It's all my senior who taught me well, wait for me here, and I'll be back in a while." He smiled, and the moment he turned around, the smile on his face was frozen on his face, as if Pasted masks.

I saw a tall and handsome young man standing at the door of the restaurant where they had dinner just now, staring at them without blinking.

After many years, the person standing in the sun is still as clean and beautiful as I remember.

In an instant, Xu Jiming's eyelashes were wet with tears. It turns out that you have never walked out of my heart for so many years.
