Sheng Fengshi returned to the office and went to the research institute not long after. Yuan Mu read for half an hour, opened the window to let in the wind for a while, wondering if Yao Ruoyu would come today.After watching for more than half an hour, Yuan Mu heard the sound of the door opening and looked up to see Yao Ruoyu's smiling face.

"It's a bit late today." Yuan Mu said.

"Drinking with Zhao Ge and the others last night, I had a little too much, and I'm sleepy in the morning." Yao Ruoyu said, sitting down on the sofa, "Help me get a cup of hot water. Now I'm still a little dizzy."

Yuan Mu took the water and brought it to her, sat down and said, "Drinking too much alcohol is not good for the liver."

"Once in a while, I have a sense of proportion." Yao Ruoyu took a sip of water and sighed comfortably, "Hot water is better."

"It's been cloudy these days. You can buy a thermos and bring hot water when you go out. When it gets hot in May and June, you can switch to mung bean soup. But you can't drink mung bean soup often, because it's prone to diarrhea."

Yao Ruoyu laughed at her: "How old are you, you have started to pay attention to health preservation. While you are young and in good health, you should eat and drink what you see, and think about it when you are 50 or [-] years old."

Yuan Mu said, "Then you will have to think about these things."

Yao Ruoyu frowned, although she knew it was a well-intentioned expression of concern, why did it sound so frantic? "I'm not yet forty. I'll think about it in two years. Thank you."

Yuan Mu: "You're welcome."

"..." Yao Ruoyu took a breath, didn't contemplate a word for a long time, then slowly exhaled that breath, and said, "I don't know if we can meet again in the future."

"Where are you going?"

"Go to a bigger city, develop a bigger network, earn more money, and live a more free life." Yao Ruoyu said.

"Having developed a larger network of people, can you be more free?"

"That's right, there is no freedom to be entangled in the net. Then balance the two, I don't want to give up on both."

Yuan Mu said, "I wish you relaxation and happiness."

"Thank you." Yao Ruoyu said with a smile, but she knew in her heart that she would never be easy in her life. She would always be very tired, and there was only superficial happiness. Her smile was brighter than anyone else's, and her heart was more empty and tired than anyone else. up.There is no rule that says that life must be aimed at happiness, and she is willing to continue living so tiringly.

"When will you come back?"

"Two ten minutes."

"I'll wait for her to come back. After seeing her once, I won't come to say goodbye to you before she leaves. Are you reading just now? Go ahead and ignore me."

Yuan Mu asked: "Do you want to read? I can lend you mine."

"Do you think I look like a person who can read books? Look at yours. I have a mobile phone, and there is no shortage of people to chat with. Chatting with others is much more interesting than chatting with you and Fengshi."

Yuan Mu nodded and said, "Drink some water."

Yao Ruoyu took a sip, put down the glass and said, "I don't really want to chat with you for fun. Sometimes I just say 'um', you are better than her, but not much better. It's strange, I just like it. Make friends with people like you."

Yuan Mu: "You said that you are willing to be nüè."

"When did I say that?" Yao Ruoyu couldn't remember at all, "Maybe I said it. But why do you remember it so clearly? I just said a lot of things casually, so you don't need to take it to heart."

"I also memorized it casually." Yuan Mu got up and said, taking Yao Ruoyu's cup to refill the hot water.

"Let me correct it, you are much better than Fengshi."

Yuan Mu took his own book along the way, put down his cup, sat down and said, "Hello."

"I didn't say she was bad. It's true." Yao Ruoyu pouted, looking disgusted.

Yuan Mu opened the book, Yao Ruoyu stopped talking, and browsed economic news on his mobile phone.

About 10 minutes later, the office door rang twice, Yao Ruoyu raised an eyebrow and asked Yuan Mu: "Didn't you say there are still 10 minutes?"

"It's not her." After Yuan Mu replied, he raised his voice and said, "Please come in."

"Yuan Mu..." Zou Qi happily opened the door and saw someone else sitting on the sofa, and added two more words, "Teacher."

"Come on, sit down," Yuan Mu introduced with a smile when he saw Zou Qi, "This is Teacher Sheng's friend."

Yao Ruoyu watched from the side, and felt that Yuan Mu's smile contained a sense of caring.

Zou Qi said politely, "Hello."

There is a single sofa here, Yuan Mu is sitting on, and there is a double sofa, if there is space available, Zou Qi has no choice but to sit next to Yao Ruoyu.

Yuan Mu introduced to Yao Ruoyu again: "This is Zou Qi, my younger sister."

"Huh?" Yao Ruoyu turned her head to look at Zou Qi for a while, and asked Yuan Mu in surprise, "You still know a younger sister here? Do you know at the right time?"

Yuan Mu said, "She is my biological sister."

Yao Ruoyu looked at Zou Qi's appearance again, and said in disbelief, "You don't look alike."

Yuan Mu: "Yes."

Yao Ruoyu looked at Zou Qi, then at Yuan Mu, and said, "After a long time, it seems to be a bit similar again."

Yuan Mu said: "Whether she looks like her or not, she is my own sister."

Yao Ruoyu asked: "Then you became a teaching assistant at the school, and you have something to do with your sister?"

Yuan Mu: "Yes. We just met each other."

Zou Qi added: "Still in the stage of getting to know each other."

Yao Ruoyu: "I feel like this is a very long story. But it's a story between you, so I won't ask further. Sister, you look so cute."

Zou Qi smiled sweetly: "Thank you, you are beautiful too."

Yao Ruoyu asked: "Then who is more beautiful, Mr. Sheng or me?"

Yuan Mu: "..."

Zou Qi replied easily: "Mr. Sheng is not here, so you are more beautiful."

"Look, Yuan Mu, why is there such a big gap between the biological sisters? Your sister is so attractive." Yao Ruoyu was in a good mood after hurting Yuan Mu, and then asked Zou Qi, "If Teacher Sheng is here, then you Who is more beautiful?"

Zou Qi looked puzzled: "You are all beautiful and temperamental, I really can't choose."

Yao Ruoyu: "Do you have to choose one?"

Zou Qi shook her head and said, "Beauty cannot be compared. You are all so beautiful. I don't want to answer this question."

Yao Ruoyu clapped her hands and said to Yuan Mu, "Listen, you can make people feel comfortable without telling lies. If I ask you, who is more beautiful, Fengshi or me, how would you answer?"

"Beautiful at any time."

"You see, you are not popular."

Yuan Mu: "..."

Zou Qi said: "I really like my sister's personality."

Yao Ruoyu glanced sideways at Yuan Mu and said, "I like it too."

Yuan Mu thought: Whether you like it or not is not the most important thing, other people's opinions are even less important, as long as you like it at the right time.

Yao Ruoyu and Zou Qi first discussed Yuan Mu's personality, and then the topic expanded, and the two chatted quickly.Yuan Mu admired Yao Ruoyu's chatting skills again, and read a book quietly by himself.

Not long after, Sheng Fengshi opened the door and walked in.

Yuan Mu was the first to turn his head, and Sheng Fengshi came over and stroked her hair.

Zou Qi stood up and said, "Hello, Teacher Sheng."

"Sit." Sheng Fengshi nodded and asked Yao Ruoyu, "Looking for me?"

"Yeah, I know you won't watch my news, so I'm here to tell you, I turned down that job, and I won't be in Huazhou anymore." Yao Ruoyu said with a smile.

Yuan Mu got up to give the seat to Sheng Fengshi, moved his own stool and sat next to the armrest of the sofa.

"Are you ready for work?" Sheng Fengshi asked.

"Of course. A company I worked with before has a vacant seat, just waiting for me to go. I will leave tomorrow."

"What do you say at home?"

"My mother is so angry that she doesn't answer the phone and doesn't see me now. My father doesn't agree with it, but he doesn't say anything. That's it."

"Bon Voyage."

"Thank you." Yao Ruoyu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it, don't think about anything else. I guess I will seldom come back in the future. I wish you all the best. I still have a lot of things to sort out, so I'm leaving first."

All three bid her farewell.Yao Ruoyu's shoulders were straight, her back was beautiful, showing a sense of pride, she walked out of the office, and disappeared from sight after the door closed.

Yuan Mu asked Sheng Fengshi: "Will we meet again?"

Sheng Fengshi said, "Maybe."

The three people who stayed in the office were strangely and harmoniously silent for a while, as if they were saying goodbye.

Sheng Fengshi asked, "Did Zou Qi come to look for Yuan Mu?"

"Well, I'm here to ask Yuan Mu if he'll be back home this holiday."

Yuan Mu replied, "No."

"Oh... Yesterday my mother promised me to go to your house with you and meet your father. My mother also said that although May Day is a bit late, if you happen to go back, it is not impossible to consider. "

Not to mention Yuan Mu, even Sheng Fengshi was a little surprised.The two looked at each other, and both felt that Luo Meijuan's openness was unexpected.They can see how much Luo Meijuan cares about Zou Qi, and it's hard to say, Luo Meijuan is a little clingy to Zou Qi, calls every day, and contacts Sheng Fengshi every week to ask about the situation, and asks Yuan Mu to help when she finds that Zou Qi is suspected of being in love observe.After Yuan Mu got to know Luo Meijuan a little bit, he already lamented Luo Meijuan's kindness in his heart. It must have been a huge blow to Luo Meijuan when he came to the door, but Luo Meijuan endured it and agreed to let them recognize each other.Yuan Mu naturally hoped to be able to persuade Zou Qi's parents to take Zou Qi to the village for only one day, but she originally planned to wait at least two months before trying to raise this request.

Now, Zou Qi said that Luo Meijuan would let them go back this weekend?

Yuan Mu couldn't regain his composure for a long time.

"Did you bring it up?" Yuan Mu asked.

"Yeah, I thought I would meet sooner or later. It doesn't matter to me, because your father is just a stranger to me, but to your father, I am his lost daughter. See me one day sooner." , he will feel at ease one day earlier." After Zou Qi finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue, "I mean, do you think I'm a bit cold? I feel that being kind is not as good as raising kindness. This is not a concept passed on to me by my parents. They never talked about it, and I always thought I was theirs."

"No," Yuan Mu said, "I think you are very kind."

Zou Qi squinted and smiled: "It's just an ordinary person. If you don't go home this time, then tell me before you go back next time."

Yuan Mu turned his head to look at Sheng Fengshi.

Sheng Fengshi said: "Go back."

Yuan Mu said to Zou Qi: "Let's go this weekend. I'll come to your house in the afternoon to discuss with auntie."

"Not this afternoon, my mother has an event."

"Then tomorrow?"

"My dad will pick me up tomorrow afternoon, you can come with me."

"Ah."

Yuan Mu looked at Sheng Fengshi's face, and she began to miss her before they parted.
