On the first night I stayed at my aunt's house, I had a dream about the scene of the car accident.

I finished working at the convenience store that day, and when I got home, I found that my mother had made lunch on a rare occasion, and what was even more rare was that my father was there.

"Is today a special day?" I asked after taking the bowl of rice.

"Your mother and I have already discussed the divorce." Father said.

Hearing his voice, I flinched subconsciously. This was a conditioned reflex of being beaten too many times when I was a child, but I still rejoiced in my heart that this wrong marriage was finally coming to an end.

The mother who thought there would be a big scene smiled softly, "Let's go camping this afternoon, this is the last time our family gets together."

I drank the pork and cabbage soup in silence. My mother's words were just to ask my father's opinion, and it had nothing to do with me.

"It's so troublesome. I have to buy Naomi's birthday present in the afternoon, so I don't have time." My father said impatiently, picked up the bowl and ate the tip of the white rice.

Naomi is Dad's new girlfriend.I quietly raised my eyes to observe my mother's expression. Her face seemed to be wearing a smiling mask, and I didn't see a single crack. It was so abnormal.

Father took a few mouthfuls of rice and said casually, "Hello."

"Yes." He called me, and I quickly put down the bowl and listened carefully.

"I don't want you, you live with your mother." The tone was like carrying stinky garbage to throw away.

"Yes." I respectfully agreed and picked up the bowl again.

"Really, I don't want it either." Mom muttered.

I tried my best to lower my head to reduce my sense of existence, and it felt more salty when I drank the soup.

Dad said he felt sleepy after eating, and he fell asleep on the sofa since he obviously didn't plan to stay at home for a minute longer.

My mother was enthusiastically preparing the tools for camping, and even put bread and jam in the basket.

"Are we really going camping?" I felt uneasy for some reason.

"Of course." Mom is putting the prepared bento in the basket, when was it prepared?Can we really finish eating so many things?

"But father..." He slept soundly on the sofa.

"It's okay, I'll drive later, Lixiang and I will move him into the car together."

My father will be angry when he wakes up, but if I refuse, my mother's unstable mental state will probably collapse, and maybe she will throw the newly prepared food in my face.

"Okay." I obeyed my mother's request.

So heavy, a man is so heavy.

My father was tall, and he beat people hard. After moving him to the passenger seat of the car with my mother, I was exhausted.

Being moved around like this without waking up, how soundly do you sleep.

I looked at my father's face and thought.

Mom wiped the fine sweat from her forehead, "Great, let's get ready to go."

When I started the car, I asked a lot: "Don't you wear a seat belt for your father?"

Mom smiled and said, "No, I drive very steadily."

Everything in the dream was so clear, and some details contained dangerous information when recalled. Maybe I had paid attention to it at that time but just ignored it on purpose.

Then we got in the car and went camping.My mom was playing "atho and kissesdee" in the car, and Leonard's voice was husky and charming, and I was getting a little sleepy.

The sun made me warm, and I turned my head to look at the scenery outside the window. With the background music, I felt like the melancholy and charming heroine in the movie.

"When your dad and I kissed in the car for the first time, this music was playing in the car." Mom looked at me through the rearview mirror, "At that time, her wife was still cooking and waiting for him at home. At that time, I saw the lights in his house were on, it was really funny, hahaha."

I don't know whether to laugh or cry with her, these expressions mixed together present an expression uglier than crying.

"What kind of expression is that on your face, Lixiang, hurry up and laugh with me! Hahahaha! Come on!!" Mother laughed wildly with her mouth wide open, her expression was ferocious, her voice was loud and shrill, like a monster that would eat children.

I was crying and laughing.

The vehicles passing by saw my expression and thought I was crazy, so they quickly rolled up the windows.

The car drove faster and faster, and my mother seemed to be racing.

My tiredness just now was scared away, "Mom... I'm driving too fast now, slow down a little."

"Hurry up? It's the last time, let's indulge again." After listening to my words, instead of slowing down, she drove faster.

Dangerous alarm bells jingled.

"mom, Mom, Mom……"

"Lixiang, our family must always be together, no matter before, now, or—"

The car made a sharp turn and crashed into the guardrail next to it. The whole car flew out. My head hit the front seat and it hurt so much. I was dizzy and heard my mother's unfinished words.

"—in hell."

In fact, the car accident in which I lost my left leg was not an accident, but a deliberate murder.

The murderer is the mother.

"Sister Lixiang, Sister Lixiang." It was Xiaoxia calling me.

I opened my eyes and looked at her. I had just had a very heavy dream, so my brain was still soaked in brightly colored paint, and when I picked it up and twisted it, I could squeeze out disgusting colors.

After being confused for a while, I sat up: "I'm sorry, did I disturb you by talking in my sleep? Did I make a weird laugh?"

Damn, wouldn't it scare her.

Xiao Xia also sat up. After last night, there was no distance between us as a stranger, and she could be next to me without restraint.

"I didn't talk in my sleep, and I didn't laugh out loud." Xiao Xia's warm orange eyes were full of worry, "I was crying very quietly."

I subconsciously touched the corners of my eyes, and they were moist.

"Have you had a nightmare?"

I answered irrelevantly: "I dreamed of my mother."

Her eyes were more gentle, she obviously misunderstood what I meant, and then hugged me gently.

So warm, really like a little sun.

"We are all sister Lixiang's relatives, so it's okay, don't feel lonely."

"Thank you." I said to her.

It snowed all night last night, and when I got up this morning, the snow was already thick.

"Did you get up so early? It's rare to have a holiday. It doesn't matter if you sleep a little longer." At this time, my aunt was wearing a pink apron with a pattern of daisies on it. When she looked at me and smiled, she felt a warm glow .

I ate the fried hot sausage and eggs. I haven't had a hot breakfast for a long time. At this time, my stomach sighed with satisfaction.

"Where is Xiaoxia and Xiangyang?" I took the used dinner plate to the sink to rinse.

"Playing in the snow in the backyard, is Lixiang going?"

"Playing in the snow?" I shivered, "You are in good health, it's so cold outside."

"Lixiang should exercise more, health is the most important thing." My aunt patted me on the back, "Go, play with Xiangyang and the others, and forget about the dishes."

"But……"

Auntie: stare~

I was wearing the coral fleece pajamas I brought and a coat over the outside before I dared to open the door facing the courtyard.

Xiangyang and Xiaoxia are making a snowman. They are wearing the pink fur earmuffs and thick cotton clothes I gave them, and they are rolling the snowman's head.

"Oh! Sister Lixiang!" Xiangyang greeted me first, his nose was red from the cold but he looked very energetic, as if he enjoyed making snowmen very much.

"Sister Lixiang, let's play together!" Xiaoxia grabbed my hand.

"Wait—it's too cold, I think I'd better—" Actually, I just wanted to sneak a cigarette in the backyard before going back to watching TV.

"It's cold when you stand still, but you'll get hot when you move," Xiangyang said.

"Well, but..."

"Build a snowman together!" Xiangyang cheered with open arms.

"Build a snowman!" Xiao Xia echoed.

After shouting, the brothers and sisters looked at me with shining eyes, like a puppy waiting to be slipped.

I had to make a compromise: "...Okay."

*

"Ji, what do you think of this dress?" Gong Yoo came out of the bedroom, while straightening the inconspicuous folds on the jacket, he asked Gong Ji who was nestled on the sofa watching the football game.

Miyaji didn't take his eyes off the TV screen, and replied perfunctorily: "It's okay."

"It's alright if you didn't read what you said!" Gong Yoo strode up to Gong Zhi to block his sight.

Miyaji couldn't bear it anymore, "This is your eighth outfit! It's just a class reunion, do you think you're going on a blind date? You can wear whatever you want."

Gong You choked on his words, "I...I..."

"What are you?" Seeing the suspicious pause in his tone, Gong Zhi guessed, "No way, are you really trying to pick up girls?"

"What are you picking up girls?! Don't be so vulgar, okay?" Gong You immediately retorted, then coughed twice in a calm voice, and his eyes wandered, "I wonder if Lixiang will go too."

Miyaji replied in seconds: "I won't go."

"Ah? Why are you so sure!" As if he didn't get the gift he expected, Gong Yoo raised his voice like a child, and became even more angry when his wandering eyes fell on Gong Zhi's face, "No, your face What does that look of pity mean!!"

"Pity?" Gong Zhi touched his face, "It should be because of the idiot's expression."

"Huh?! Don't force me to beat you on a day like Christmas, Zhi!" The veins on Gong Yoo's forehead throbbed dangerously.

"She only studied in Inarizaki for less than a year, why did she come here to attend a class reunion that no one knew?" Miyaji pointed at the point mercilessly, "And when you broke up, you had a quarrel. You look so ugly, even if she wants to come, she is afraid of seeing you and feel embarrassed."

Gong You, who was aggressive just now, died down, like a lifeless golden retriever.

However, it is impossible for Miyaji to comfort him at this time, with a look in his eyes that watching the fun is not a big deal, he continued: "And maybe he will spend a rare vacation with his boyfriend, who remembers you?" .”

After hearing this, Gong You's chest heaved violently, and he choked out a sentence for a long time: "She won't!"

Miyaji said coldly: "That's not necessarily true. Didn't you also have a girlfriend later?"

"That's—" Gong Yoo got stuck, put his hand into the pocket of his jacket irritably, "That's different!"

"Oh."

Gong Yoo made a loud noise and went back to the bedroom.

Miyaji heard a loud bang as the bedroom door closed.He changed his posture and supported his face with his hands, without looking back, the light and shadow on the TV screen reflected in his eyes, and sighed helplessly: "You idiot."

In order not to expose her ulterior motives to be particularly obvious, Gong Yoo deliberately didn't go to the party until halfway through.

"Ah Yoo, why are you here so late, everyone has been here for a long time." A girl saw Gong Yoo coming in and greeted her immediately.

Gong Yoo glanced across her face indifferently, thinking indifferently who is this person?Not impressed at all.

"Wow, I'm so cold, I'm Lingna, I won't forget." The girl pretended to be sad.

Gong Yoo barely remembered that she hosted this class reunion, "I haven't forgotten."

"Great, let's go over there, what would you like to drink?" Reina put her arms around his arm with an affectionate look.

"Come here by car, don't drink." Gong You frowned and pulled back his arm, "Is everyone here?"

Linna pouted dissatisfiedly, showing a coquettish expression, "All the invitees are here."

Gong Yoo regarded her as a transparent person, and quietly looked for Qingzhi Lixiang's figure.In front of the wine table, in front of the dining table, in a slightly off-center corner.

No.Really do not have!

What Zhizhi said was right, Lixiang never came.

Feel like a fool.I wanted to ask Linnai if she invited Lixiang, but her little thoughts were completely exposed in this way, so she could only ask tactfully, "Have all the classmates invited?"

It's incredible that Gong Yoo actually knows how to use "tactful" in dialogue.

Linnai blinked, her peach-colored eyelids were covered with a layer of shiny fine powder, "I have sent emails, the contact information has not changed, and those who have given affirmative answers have come today. Why, are you looking for someone?"

After Lixiang transferred to another school, she changed her mobile phone contact information, her communication account, and even her house.It's a ghost if the mail can be delivered to her.

"No, I'm going to the bathroom." Gong Yoo's face was not very good-looking, and even the people who came to say hello to him ignored him and left.

When we were together before, I didn't realize that the bridge connecting people can be broken so easily.If you want to deliberately not see someone, you may really never see someone again in this life.

It's annoying, it's annoying, it's annoying.

It's not just irritability, but also a sense of powerlessness that doesn't hurt at all when you squeeze your fist and hit the cotton.

"Hiss~It hurts~" He came out of the bathroom and bumped a girl into a stumble.

"Sorry, I'm too short to see it." Gong You said with a straight face.

"Wow, you—" the girl rubbed her sore shoulder and raised her head to criticize but stopped, "Gong Yu?"

"Huh?" Who is this again?Fans or classmates?Gong Yoo felt that he was running out of patience, if he asked him for an autograph at this time, he would put on a more stinky face and refuse politely.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, and my temper is still so bad." Tagawa Akemi complained. She didn't plan to come to the party, but she changed her mind temporarily.

Looks like a former classmate.Gong Yoo was too lazy to deal with it, and raised his foot to leave.

"Hey, isn't the party over yet? Are you leaving?" Tagawa Akemi called him puzzled.

At first I wanted to say "None of your business", but remembering Zhi's warning to him to pay attention to his wording when communicating with others, so he stopped the car and twisted stiffly: "I have something to do, let's go first."

"Oh, then I'm leaving too. I knew I shouldn't have come. It would be so lonely without Lixiang." Tian Chuan said in a low voice, saying that the essence of a class reunion is a comparison meeting. show off.Tian Chuan wanted to leave only a few minutes after she came, and it was the etiquette in her bones that kept her going until now.

Since Gong Yoo took the lead, she would be relieved a lot of burden by following along.

"Are you still in touch with Lixiang?" Gong You grabbed her arm and asked with flickering eyes.

"Ah...um." What's the matter with this expression, Tian Chuan swallowed.

"She now...she..." Gong You's Adam's apple moved up and down, he wanted to ask too much, and he didn't know where to start.

"Is she doing well now?" Gong Yoo felt ridiculous when asked in such a sad tone, what is this, the tragic hero in an idol drama?

But he really wanted to know the answer to this ridiculous question.

Akemi Tagawa was obviously dumbfounded by this question, but she thought about Lixiang's current situation seriously for a while. Her parents died in a car accident, and her left leg was forced to be amputated. No matter which one is incompatible with the word "good". above.

But the cautious expression on Gong Yoo's face was so moving, she lied: "It's okay."

Looking at Gong You's appearance, she still cares about Li Xiang very much, so why did she take the initiative to break up and make her so sad?

I really don't understand.It turns out that boys are as difficult to understand as girls.

"I have her contact information, why don't you call and ask her?" As soon as Tagawa Akemi finished speaking, Gong Yu's eyes became brighter.

It's really cold tonight.

The air conditioner in the car has been turned on, but it hasn't fully warmed up yet, and the exhaled air is white mist.

But the heart was beating so hard, it jumped from the chest to the throat.With sweaty palms, Gong Yoo took a tissue and wiped it indiscriminately, then picked up the phone whose screen was still glowing.

The page stays on the contact information that Akemi Tagawa just gave him.

If you dial, you can hear Lixiang's voice, a voice I haven't heard for several years.

Would she have hung up the phone immediately?Will you be angry?Or can't remember who he is at all?

"No, I'm so handsome, I won't forget it." Gong Yoo did mental training for himself, and after a long time of construction, he suddenly realized that he was stupid.

"Fuck, I've never been so nervous in a game." He thumped the steering wheel, accidentally pressed the horn, and the sound made him startle himself, "Damn!"

Stupid as hell.

After pressing the call button, the other party quickly connected to the mobile phone. Just like in the past, the messages and calls were returned very quickly.

"Hello, hello." It was Lixiang's voice.

He likes to hear her voice the most, it is gentle and sweet, and he wants to eat it in one bite.

"Hello? Can you hear me?" Lixiang repeated, "Strange—"

"Lixiang." Gong You was so nervous that when she said her name, there was no sound, her throat was so tight.

When he was finally able to call Lixiang's name normally, the other party had already hung up the phone.

It doesn't matter, the first time is raw and the second time is familiar, and the second time he will definitely be able to communicate with Lixiang normally.

then.
