Ashes in the crematorium

"Are you kidding me, right? If you think I'm annoying, I won't bother you in the future." Ren Wanlin's haughty tone no longer existed, only the humbleness that she didn't even realize was left.

"I'm not joking with you. I've actually thought about it for a long time, but today I decided to be with Chi You." Li Ran's tone was very calm, so calm that people couldn't tell whether what he said was true or not.

"and also......"

Li Ran didn't give Ren Wanlin a chance to breathe at all, he continued, "I'm already living with him, so please don't do this in the future, you trouble me a lot."

live together...

Ren Wanlin knew what these words meant, and he thought he could redeem it.

It seems... just his fantasy.

"I don't believe it..." Ren Wanlin said palely, it was so sudden that he couldn't recover from it, and he didn't have time to accept it.

Li Ran frowned, he didn't expect Ren Wanlin to be so stubborn.

"You want me to prove it to you before you believe it?"

After thinking for a while, Li Ran turned around, pulled Chi You, and leaned close to his face, wanting to prove it with a kiss.

Chi You was very surprised, and his whole body collapsed.

His liking for Li Ran has not weakened, and he also knows his own weight, seeing Li Ran's approaching face and the hot air sprayed out, Chi You's heart is about to explode.

He knew what Li Ran was going to do.

Ren Wanlin also knew.

"Enough!" Ren Wanlin shouted angrily.

Disappointed, angry, sad, angry... all kinds of emotions were intertwined, and Ren Wanlin didn't know if she could bear it.

In the past, his heart could only contain himself and was unwilling to accept other things, but when he was willing to fill it in, he also filled it with sadness.

"You don't need to prove anything, I believe it." Ren Wanlin said this sentence almost with all her strength.

"I believe."

The voice became softer and softer, as if all the strength had been used up.

Ren Wanlin returned to the car with the result of waiting so hard. He forgot what to do next, and did not move, did not step on the accelerator, and did not leave gracefully.

He just watched as they held hands, walked side by side, and then disappeared from his sight.

After working hard for so long, he was still abandoned.

After entering the community, Li Ran spoke first, "Thank you."

Chi You was still thinking about the scene just now, only to wake up when he heard Li Ran's words.

"You just..." Chi You paused, not knowing how to organize his words.

"You have to do a full set of acting." Li Ran said it very easily, as if he didn't take it to heart.

Seeing Li Ran's state, Chi You sighed, and sure enough, he was the only one who couldn't escape.

"I'm sorry." Li Ran put away his playful attitude and suddenly apologized.

"Why do you have to apologize?" Chi You asked.

"I'm so offended."

"Maybe..." Chi You paused, and then said, "I don't feel offended."

"You have to do it all, I'm mentally prepared." Chi You responded in a joking tone.

Li Ran laughed when he heard this.

"By the way... what do you eat at night, I don't think you cook." Chi You said.

"takeout."

"Takeout is so unhealthy, and it doesn't taste good." Chi You thought for a while, "Come to my house to eat."

Li Ran looked up at Chi You.

Chi You knew Li Ran's mischief in his heart, and said again, "I won't let you eat for free, you have to pay five hundred living expenses a month."

"Okay." Li Ran did not refuse.

This made Chi You let out a sigh of relief.

Li Ran went to Chi You's house, Chi You was cooking in the kitchen, and he was sitting on the sofa, eating the dried fruit in his hand.

The phone was put aside, and the battery had already displayed a red warning, reminding Li Ran that it was running out of battery.

But even so, there are still unknown calls coming in.

Li Ran didn't charge it, and watched coldly as the phone ran out of battery, then turned off and went black.

Why are some people so idle that they have nothing else to do all day long, only keep calling him on the phone, as if there is nothing to do in this life other than desperately pestering him.

Ke Li Xiao is such a person.

A madman.

After eating, Li Ran washed the dishes logically, Chi You saw the mobile phone on the sofa, he didn't forget how crazy Li Ran's mobile phone was when he went to work.

He was indeed curious about Li Ran, but he also knew in his heart that Li Ran was unwilling to confide in him, but seeing that he was upset about this matter, he wanted to do something.

Li Ran had already cleaned up the kitchen, Chi You saw him coming out, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Why don't you stop the phone card."

Li Ran froze for a moment, "I can't stop."

"Who is it?" Chi You asked.

Li Ran smiled, "The creditor."

An ambiguous answer.

Li Ran returned to his house, looked at the phone and hesitated for a long time, and decided to let it go quiet.

He turned on the computer and logged in to WeChat in the computer, so he would not miss the notifications in the work group because his phone was not available.

In this way, Li Ran lived a quiet day.

Everything finally returned to calm.

I got off work as usual, and there were no strange vehicles on the roadside.

Li Ran no longer subconsciously glances at the side of the road once he gets off the stairs.

He thought that Ren Wanlin had really given up, but he forgot that he still had a son.

Sitting on the steps with her schoolbag on her back, Xiao Ran jumped out as soon as she saw Li Ran's figure, and threw herself into Li Ran's arms.

Li Ran was shocked and looked at his son who was hugging him tightly. He looked around and saw that there was no Ren Wanlin, nor the driver, only Xiao Ran.

"You came alone?" Li Ran's tone was a bit cold.

Xiao Ran's eyes were wet, and there were still two strings of teardrops. Hearing the angry tone, she raised her head and looked timidly at Li Ran.

Li Ran squatted down, and looked at Xiao Ran, "How did you come here, did no one pick you up? Also, how do you know that Dad works here?"

Li Ran had never lost his temper with Chao Xiaoran, and the child's mind was more sensitive, he knew that his father was angry, so he didn't dare to say a word.

Seeing that his son was silent, Li Ran's expression became more serious, "Did Ren Wanlin tell you?"

Xiao Ran shook her head, "No, I asked Uncle Xiao Wang."

Ren Wanlin's driver?

"No one picked you up?" Thinking of this, Li Ran was even more angry. This society is so complicated, and it's too dangerous for a five-year-old child to be alone. Fortunately, Xiao Ran is fine, otherwise he would never forgive Ren Wan in his life Pro.

As if knowing that he made a mistake, Xiao Ran's eyes kept dodging, and Li Ran knew it when he saw it, "Tell Dad how you got here?"

"I took a taxi by myself. I wanted to call Dad, but Dad's cell phone couldn't get through." The more Xiao Ran said, the more wronged she became, her eyes were red.

Li Ran's heart suddenly felt as if he was hit by a blunt object, and he couldn't say anything to blame.

"It's all dad's fault."

Xiaoran grabbed Li Ran's hand, "Dad, shall we still go to the beach? I have already learned how to swim, and I can swim very well."

Li Ran pursed his lips tightly, watching his son chattering about how powerful and smart he was, his face was full of longing.

If he didn't go, he couldn't say anything.

Xiaoran looked at Li Ran's expression, as if he knew something, he carefully tugged at the corner of Li Ran's clothes, "Dad, will our family go together, right?"

His Xiaoran has not accepted the fact that he and Ren Wanlin have divorced until now.

"Xiaoran...you and grandma, Ren Wan, dad, okay?" Li Ran's tone was very light, guilt-ridden, "Dad won't go."

Hearing this sentence, Xiao Ran's tears immediately dripped down, dripping on Li Ran's hands, the warm tears were like magma in a volcano, scalding Li Ran's hands, the pain followed every day A nerve tugged at him.

Is it really calm?

Li Ran realizes that his life has never been peaceful.

"This is your son?" Chi You asked suddenly.

Li Ran withdrew the sad emotion on his face, trying to look calm, but no matter how perfect the disguise was, he could feel his sadness through his eyes.

If you are not happy, you are just not happy, no matter how you pretend, it is useless.

"Well. My son."

"It's so cute." Chi You stretched out his hand, wanting to rub Ren Ran's head.

But before his hands touched Ren Ran's hair, he quickly dodged and Ren Ran hid behind Li Ran, looking at Chi You vigilantly.

This keen intuition, I don't know who it looks like.

"Can I borrow your mobile phone to make a call?" Li Ran asked.

Xiaoran came to look for him alone, the Ren family must be going crazy.

Chi You handed over his mobile phone, and Li Ran dialed Ren Wanlin's mobile phone.

"Hello?" The phone dialed, but the voice inside was extremely hoarse, without the spirit of the past.

Li Ran glanced at the number and confirmed that he did not dial the wrong number.

"Ren Wanlin?"

The phone paused for a few seconds, "Li Ran?"

Li Ran: "I just called to tell you that Xiao Ran is with me."

"it is good."

Ren Wanlin on the other end of the phone wanted to say a lot, but when those words came to his lips, he still couldn't say them.

"Li Ran, I..." When he plucked up the courage to say it, Li Ran had already hung up the phone, and only the beeping sound could be heard in his ears.

Ren Wanlin looked at the phone that was hung up, feeling as if thousands of ants were gnawing on her heart. After a few minutes, he mustered up the courage to dial the number.

But it was not Li Ran's voice inside.

Ren Wanlin realized that this was the man who lived with Li Ran.

Are they... already close to this point?

Ren Wanlin quickly hung up the phone, and lost all the courage left.

Xiao Ran didn't go back to Ren's house, but followed Li Ran to his one-bedroom. After Xiao Ran fell asleep, Li Ran looked at the phone that was turned off for a while, and then picked up the charger to charge the phone.

The phone wakes up again, and Li Ran scrolls through the pages to look at the caller ID.

Hundreds of missed calls, some people I knew and some I didn't know.

Li Ran put down the phone and calmly looked at the phone page, the phone would ring at any time, but this time he did not choose to turn it off.

He was silent, waiting.
