New love

It's rather cold at night, I don't know if that's the case in S City.Jiang Yun shrank into the quilt, curled up, covered half of his face in the quilt, sleeping alone was not warm, and felt chilly when he moved.

Lu Nianzhi just came back from the hospital and stayed in the hospital during the day. No one else in the Lu family was there, so she was the only one to accompany her, so she was free now.

It was so late, Lu Nianzhi thought that she should be asleep, and planned to find her tomorrow, but was afraid that she had been waiting, so he hesitated and called.

Jiang Yun chuckled twice, mentioned that today is the winter solstice, and he went to He Yu's place to spend it, and asked Lu Nianzhi how he was.

Lu Nianzhi replied softly, "Everything is fine."

"Where's Uncle?"

There was a moment of silence on the other side, "He's fine, he's just not feeling well, he'll be fine in a few days."

Jiang Yun didn't ask too many questions, so he didn't mention these anymore.

Although he said on the phone that the old man's physical problems were not serious, Lu Nianzhi still didn't say when he would return to City C. It might be that Jiang Yun was in a hurry, and she was not used to it within a day of parting. I hope the other party can give me a clear answer. , but it never came.

Hang up the phone, toss and turn for most of the night, sleepless all night.

After the winter solstice, the temperature in City C plummeted, which was much colder than before, so it was necessary to wear thick clothes.

Jiang Yun rearranged the closet once, put all the spring and summer clothes at the bottom, and put the winter clothes on the top to hang.Since Lu Nianzhi hadn't brought over the thick winter clothes, almost all the objects hanging above the closet belonged to Jiang Yun alone, including scarves and hats.

After tidying up, Jiang Yun stood in front of the wardrobe for two to three minutes, then closed it silently.

Later, she stayed in the old house, didn't go anywhere, watched dramas and movies when she was bored, and cooked when it was time for dinner.

The next few days were dull and boring, going to and from get off work, staying at home alone, no matter what I did, I was alone.

In the world of adults, there are often times of loneliness. Jiang Yun has adapted to this kind of life. He tries to stay in the company as long as possible every day, and occasionally takes the initiative to work overtime.

During the period, Aning came over. The girl thought that Lu Nianzhi was there, and she brought snacks for two people. After asking, she found out that Lu Nianzhi had been gone for nearly a week.

Now that the relationship between Aning and Lu Nianzhi is okay, she was surprised and asked when Lu Nianzhi would come back.

"I don't know, I'm not sure yet." Jiang Yun prevaricated, not wanting to mention this.

Aning lived in the old house for two days, accompanying Jiang Yun.

And Lu Nianzhi, who is far away in S City, would call every night, always find time to chat with Jiang Yun, and occasionally order flowers and food to be delivered, except for the people who can't see her, everything is the same as before .

Jiang Yun never asked when he would come back, at most he cared about the old man's physical condition.She doesn't know the old man, she hasn't even met him, no matter how much she asks, she only has those few words, that's all.

Similarly, Lu Nianzhi will not mention the situation in City S too much.

The two of them have a tacit understanding at this time. They both know what to say and what not to say, and they don't put too much pressure on each other.

That little Sanhua still came over often, and stayed in the old house every now and then.Last time, Jiang Yun forgot to close the window and let it sneak in. Now that it is ripe, Jiang Yun will not stop it. If it wants to come, let it come in, and stay wherever it wants.

Xiaosanhua is honest most of the time, but sometimes she also grabs the sofa to play with. She is jumping up and down all day long at such a young age, and she always likes to get on Jiang Yun.

It was only a few days later that Jiang Yun found out that Little Sanhua belonged to Aunt Zou's family, the cub of a big cat, and ran over by mistake.

Xiaosanhua is a descendant of Chuqi, and she is considered a little granddaughter.

Aunt Zou saw that the little guy liked to run this way, and she didn't want the big cat and the house anymore, so she asked Jiang Yun if he wanted to raise it.

Jiang Yun didn't think it through yet, but after he came to accompany him for two days, he still asked Aunt Zou to ask for it.

Raising a cat is not an easy task, it is quite troublesome, everything needs to be prepared, and cats are not very obedient, sometimes they behave well, sometimes they are so skinny.

Jiang Yun told Lu Nianzhi about this on the phone. Lu Nianzhi supported raising cats, and the two named Xiao Sanhua Shiwu.

Xiaosanhua was brought back on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, so she was given the same name as Chuqi.

There is an extra cat in the old house, and it seems less deserted than before.

Every night, when Jiang Yun called Lu Nianzhi, Shiwu tried every means to jump onto Jiang Yun's lap and lie on his stomach, shrinking into a meat ball.The little guy likes to be close to Jiang Yun. When Jiang Yun talks to Lu Nianzhi, he raises his head and keeps barking, always trying to make trouble.

Lu Nianzhi listened too much over there, and said helplessly, "Why does it make such a fuss every day, is it annoying?"

Jiang Yun scratched Shiwu's chin lightly, and said softly: "It's not noisy at ordinary times, but it's called when I make a phone call. I don't know what's wrong."

Lu Nianzhi smiled.

Jiang Yun pursed his lips, and after a while, whispered, "Maybe I missed you..."

She lowered her voice very low, and there was an indescribable meaning in her tone.

There was no sound on the phone.

After a long time, Lu Nianzhi said: "My dad has already been discharged from the hospital, the day before yesterday."

Jiang Yun had already guessed that if there was no serious incident of cardiovascular disease, he would usually not stay in the hospital for too long.She listened quietly and hummed.

"I'll be back tomorrow morning." Lu Nianzhi suddenly said seriously.

Jiang Yun was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "No, you should take care of that first, and don't come back in a hurry."

"It's over, there's nothing else to do." Lu Nianzhi said.

Knowing that this person was not telling the truth, Jiang Yun pretended not to care and said: "Anyway, I have nothing to do when I come back, don't worry about it for a few days, you..."

Lu Nianzhi interrupted her with a calm tone: "But I want to go back to City C, and I want to see you."

Jiang Yun was silent for a while, unable to find any words to respond.

Lu Nianzhi confessed everything that happened in recent days, and no longer kept it from Jiang Yun.

In fact, on the first day Lu Nianzhi arrived in S City, he had an unpleasant fight with the old man, and the relationship was very tense. Neither father nor daughter regressed. The old man took Lu Nianzhi's original promise to find trouble. This quarrel will never end, in short, it is very troublesome.

Mr. Lu has that kind of temper. He has been used to being strong for so many years, but in the end it didn't matter. He would show his prestige verbally and would not really do anything, otherwise he would have broken up with Lu Nianzhi long ago.The old man never mentioned anything about Lu Nianzhi and Jiang Yun, and he has not expressed his opinion so far, making it difficult for people to see his thoughts clearly.

These two days when Lu Tingan and the others were at home, Lu Nianzhi didn't want to stay any longer. He planned to come back. Hearing what Jiang Yun said, he had to leave early.

Jiang Yun touched Shiwu's back, looked out the window, hooked the corners of his mouth, and responded, "Then I'll pick you up at the airport."

Lu Nianzhi: "Yes."

Before dawn on the second day, Jiang Yun woke up early in the morning to get ready, put on makeup and tidied up, and then drove to the airport.

Before departure, Lu Nianzhi sent her a message and arrived in City C on time.

The two have not been separated for so long since they were together, and this is the longest time, so long that Jiang Yun felt uneasy.As soon as he saw someone, Jiang Yun went over first and hugged him.

Lu Nianzhi was still dressed lightly, a thin sweater and a long gray coat.The thick sweater Jiang Yun wears is completely opposite to this person's style.

The cold wind in the early morning was blowing continuously, making people's faces stiff.

"It won't be like this next time." Lu Nianzhi promised in a gentle voice.

Jiang Yun buried his chin in the socket of her neck, shrinking his neck in the wind, "Don't think too much, it's nothing."

Lu Nianzhi hugged her and put one hand on the hair behind her.

When I was young, I fell in love passionately. Whenever I thought about love, I would say it immediately, directly and frankly, but when I matured, it would become different, and I would think about it. Sometimes I would be more straightforward, and sometimes I would be too restrained. , The longing has been held in my heart for a long time, and the love is like fermented wine, getting stronger and stronger.

The two of them hugged each other for a while before getting into the car and going back to Anhe Lane.

Jiang Yun's mood changed suddenly, and she felt relaxed along the way. She didn't notice the change in herself, but the expression on her face changed so obviously that even her tone of voice was different.

She first talked about fifteen, everything about these days, even the work in the company.

Lu Nianzhi couldn't help it.

"What are you laughing at?" Jiang Yun asked suspiciously, not quite understanding what was so funny.

Lu Nianzhi asked back, "Are you tired from work recently?"

The topic was shifted.

Just once, the two started kissing as soon as they entered the door, and Lu Nianzhi even picked Jiang Yun up and put him down on the stairs.

Fifteen, the little guy jumped off the sofa and ran with them, but unfortunately his legs were too short, so he walked up the stairs slowly, unable to keep up with their footsteps, and he couldn't get into the room when he reached the second floor.

It can scratch the door from the outside, but unfortunately it doesn't respond from inside.

Lu Nianzhi stripped off Jiang Yun's thick coat and his own, and then dragged Jiang Yun into the bathroom.

The warm water was pouring down, and the foggy white air was lingering, and the bathroom soon became hazy.

You don't have to go to work, and the person you miss is by your side, so you can take your time.

Jiang Yun raised his neck and let the hot water rinse.

In the twelfth lunar month, the old city is full of New Year flavor, the streets are full of red, couplets are pasted on the doorways of the shops, or joyful lanterns are hung, even Anhe Lane is more lively than usual.

Lu Nianzhi pinched Jiang Yun's chin, bowed his head and kissed her.

Jiang Yun's red lips were half opened and half closed. When Lu Nianzhi hugged her, she buried her in the man's neck and whispered softly: "I like you..."

The people in front of them all paused, and then they seemed to be hallucinating, and asked in a low voice with uncertainty: "What did you just say?"

Jiang Yun closed his eyes.

Lu Nianzhi kissed her face and coaxed, "Say it again..."

The hot water was still running, constantly rinsing.

After a while, Jiang Yun said, "I like you."

Someone is doing something bad on purpose.

"Who likes me?"

Jiang Yun bit his lower lip, "Me."

Lu Nianzhi said, "I love you—"

Jiang Yun hugged this man tightly.

The winter in City C is gloomy and cold, there is no sun today, the sky is gray, and the sky above the whole city looks oppressive and dull, but this is not the case inside the house, it is warm and comfortable inside.

Life went back to the way it was before, and there was one more cat.

On the second day after returning to City C, Lu Nianzhi brought a lot of things from the apartment, clothes, various supplies, and some materials, a car full of messy things, all of which are usually used.

This person informed Jiang Yun in advance, and Jiang Yun acquiesced.

This should be regarded as cohabitation. Although they often lived together before, it doesn't make much difference whether they move or not now, but it is still different now.From then on, the old house should be Jiang Yun and Lu Nianzhi's first real common residence after dating.

A thick-skinned person said in front of Jiang Yun that this is her new house, and it is also her home, and she does not pay rent.

Lu Nianzhi didn't treat himself as an outsider, the first time there was a second time, and more and more things were brought in, at first he was a little restrained, and later he packed the whole truck, and asked Zhou Yunhuai to help.

She has quite a lot of things, and some collectibles have been moved here.

Jiang Yun can do whatever he wants, as long as Lu Nianzhi is willing to make troubles.

At the same time, as the end of the year was getting closer, Peisheng notified the specific holiday time. Jiang Yun personally had five days of annual leave, which was enough for the two of them to go abroad.

On Sunday, Lu Nianzhi worked overtime in the studio, and Jiang Yun stayed at home.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Yun went out to buy vegetables. Since she was free, she went out on foot, taking a shortcut and walking from the other side of the alley.

Passing near the teahouse, she met a man.

The other party was well-dressed and looked quite rich. He looked like he was from out of town. He looked about 60 or [-] years old, but he should actually be older.

The author has something to say: It's been a long time.
