Lin Zhixin forgot her original intention when she came to this teahouse with Xiang Yun, and as Xiang Yun calmly described her past and the pressure she is facing now, Lin Zhixin no longer harbors curiosity, nor With a tentative mood, he tried to understand Xiang Yun further.

She found that these unspeakable selfishness seemed too shallow at this moment.

She didn't blame Xiang Yun for choosing to escape after being hurt.

The loss in her heart has long been replaced by her distress for Xiang Yun. She hopes that Xiang Yun can cheer up, stop being slandered by outside words, stop bearing such heavy pressure, stop thinking about others, and think about herself.

Xiang Yun is such an excellent person, she should have a bright and happy future.

When she was entangled by Li Sheng and fell into the nightmare of the past, it was Xiang Yun who rushed to save her. She also hoped that she could become Xiang Yun's strength and help her become brave.

In the middle of Lin Zhixin's words, Xiang Yun stopped sobbing. She still lowered her head and covered her face, but her attention was focused on every sentence of Lin Zhixin.

When Lin Zhixin said that she was willing to accompany Xiang Yun and cheer for her, Xiang Yun's shoulders trembled again.

She bowed and fell on the table, weeping uncontrollably.

She didn't know why she was so sad after hearing this sentence, but she just couldn't restrain the endless sadness in her heart, this pain took root in her blood, and cut her like a knife with every breath she took heart of.

Lin Zhixin.

Silently chanting Lin Zhixin's name, at this moment, the heart defense collapsed, and its meaning in Xiang Yun's heart completely changed.

This was the longest conversation she had had since she grew up, except for the time when her class teacher came to her when her love affair was exposed in junior high school.

He was also the first one to affirm her choice and encourage her to pursue the happiness she wanted among all the voices who questioned her.

An unprecedented impulse sprouted in her heart, wanting to use all the courage of the rest of her life to fight for the future she wanted.

In her future, she couldn't live without Lin Zhixin.

It took a lot of effort for Xiang Yun to stop crying. She sniffed hard and wiped away the tears on her face indiscriminately. The light makeup she put on in the morning faded away, making her look like a cat.

When she raised her eyes again, Xiang Yun's eyes collided with Lin Zhixin's. Seeing the water-like tenderness in Lin Zhixin's eyes, Xiang Yun's heart shuddered, and her belated shyness made her hard to hold back.

Lin Zhixin didn't laugh at her, but she was too ashamed.

Xiang Yun breathed hard, trying to dissipate the tension, but the effect didn't seem to be satisfactory, she could only stammered with a dirty face:

"I, I see, Mr. Lin, thank you for your encouragement, I will work hard, try to change, don't care too much about other people's eyes."

Lin Zhixin looked at her, and she felt that her face was about to burn.

The sad and sad emotions just now gradually dissipated, and a door quietly opened in her heart. The courage she gained from Lin Zhixin's words gave her a glimpse of another possibility in the future, which made her restless, and her restless heart began to move around.

She didn't dare to think deeply about the meaning of Lin Zhixin's last words, lest she think too much and turn the misunderstanding into greed.

She was a little scared, more nervous, so she opened her chair and stood up, nodded to Lin Zhixin hastily, and said:

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Lin Zhixin didn't keep her, Xiang Yun staggered, describing himself as embarrassed, got into the bathroom and splashed a handful of cold water on his face.

The cold and stimulating feeling made her calm down, and she gradually regained her senses. She looked up at herself flustered in the mirror, and the expression projected in those dark brown eyes seemed to be different from before.

What has changed?

She touched her face, and her thoughts returned to the tea table just now. The words Lin Zhixin said to her lingered in her ears one after another, making her think.

The last sentence seemed to give her a steady stream of courage.

Xiang Yun splashed another handful of water on her face, and she took a piece of tissue to wipe her face, removed the spent makeup, and planned to reapply it.

At this time, her mobile phone vibrated, and the caller ID was her mother Zhou Ling.

Xiang Yun froze for a moment, her eyes dimmed, she knew what Zhou Ling would say when she called her today without answering, she subconsciously wanted to escape, wanted to put down the phone, and let it ring until the end.

But soon, she raised her head again and glanced at herself in the mirror. After a very brief struggle, she clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and then decisively and quickly pressed the answer button.

"mom."

"Why did it take so long to pick up?"

Zhou Ling's voice came out through the receiver, knocking on Xiang Yunxin. She closed her eyes, recalling the words Lin Zhixin said when she encouraged her, and kept as calm as possible, answering in a steady tone:

"I was in the bathroom just now, so it's not convenient to answer the phone."

The voice on the other side paused for a moment, and instead of pursuing Xiang Yunchi's answering the phone, he said instead:

"You don't even call home when you don't go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's getting wilder and wilder. Could it be that we can't control you anymore?"

With a blank face, Xiang Yun mustered up his courage to answer:

"You should know why I did this."

"How do we know what you're thinking about all day?"

Zhou Ling didn't take Xiang Yun's words seriously, and continued to go on in her own way:

"Wenzhi came here today, brought a lot of things, and even helped you to say good things about your work, how busy you can be? Why are you so ignorant, other people Wenzhi came to honor me and your dad every three days , look at you again, have you ever visited Renwenzhi's parents?"

Xiang Yun grabbed the phone, feeling an unknown fire in her heart. The anger she had endured for a long time burst out with the encouragement and support she had just received. She interrupted Zhou Ling angrily:

"Let me say it again, I have no relationship with Liang Wenzhi, and I will not marry him. If you like him, you can recognize him as your godson. I don't mind calling him brother!"

"Also, don't tell me about finding someone to marry as soon as you call, I don't have that much time!"

After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone directly without waiting for Zhou Ling to answer.

She stood on the edge of the sink for a while, trying to adjust her breathing. This was the first time she spoke to Zhou Ling like this, and she felt inexplicably comfortable.

Her legs were trembling and her heart was beating fast. She was still afraid. This kind of fear was rooted in her blood.

But she is already trying to change, trying to muster up the courage to stand up for herself.

She hasn't been so brave in many years, it's really awesome.

Xiang Yun held down his flustered heartbeat, thinking with joy in bitterness.

She calmed down for nearly 5 minutes before starting to touch up her makeup.

Coming out of the bathroom, Xiang Yun took out his mobile phone and sent Liang Wenzhi a message:

"Take time to chat after taking leave."

If some people don't speak clearly to him, he will always pretend to be blind.

Liang Wenzhi flattered Xiang Yun's parents, and kept a tacit attitude towards the matter of the elders urging him to get in touch with Xiang Yun. This behavior annoyed Xiang Yun. No matter whether Liang Wenzhi did it on purpose or not, she didn't intend to delay it any longer. down.

It doesn't matter if you say she is passionate or you say she is ungrateful, she wants to work hard for herself again.

After sending the text message, Xiang Yun put away his phone and continued to walk out. Lin Zhixin was still sitting in the position just now, holding a teacup refilled with hot water, looking at the sky outside the window with a quiet and gentle expression.

"Ms. Lin, are you still going to the mooncake workshop today?"

Xiang Yun didn't bring up the old talk just now, and brought up a new topic.

Lin Zhixin retracted her gaze, pursed her lips and smiled:

"Let's not go, let's buy some mooncakes later, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will be over."

It is already noon at this point, the rain has stopped, and there are more and more tourists. Even this quiet teahouse has begun to make noise. Even if they go to the workshop, they will surely be persuaded to leave by the crowded crowd just like yesterday .

"I wasted time today because I suddenly got emotional. Why don't I take you to another place as compensation. As for Fengming's handmade mooncakes, they will be around for a long time. How about meeting again next time?"

Lin Zhixin liked the phrase that the future will last forever, she lost her eyes with a smile, and nodded in agreement:

"Okay, so what place are you talking about?"

Xiang Yun took a sip from his teacup, then turned his head and pointed to a hill to the east with his free hand:

"There used to be an ancient temple in this direction. I went there once before. At that time, there were very few tourists in the temple. I don't know how it is now, but I guess no matter how many people there are in the temple, there are no more mooncake workshops."

Speaking of the last sentence, Xiang Yun blinked and made a little joke.

After all, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, so there were naturally not as many people in the temple as in the town.

She seemed to be in a much better mood, Lin Zhixin let go of her worries and smiled cooperatively.

The two sat in the teahouse for a while, and after resting, they went hand in hand to the ancient temple that Xiang Yun had mentioned.

The ancient temple is on the mountainside, called Fengxian Temple. Although it is close to the ancient town, tourists must walk along the stone steps paved with bluestone slabs for more than half an hour to get there. Not many tourists are willing to trek.

As soon as you go up the mountain, the environment becomes quieter.

The trees on the mountain began to shed their leaves, passing by the place where the maple forest was planted, and looking from a distance, the mountain was covered with fiery red maple leaves, and the forests were all dyed, which was very magnificent.

Xiang Yun and Lin Zhixin stopped and went, playing all the way up the mountain, took a lot of scenery photos, and approached the gate of the temple before they knew it.

In front of the temple gate, there were two sweeping monks. Seeing Xiang Yun and Lin Zhixin coming for fun, they led them into the temple to offer incense.

Neither of them believed in ghosts and gods, but when they came to the temple, they naturally had to abide by the rules of the temple. Every time they passed a temple, they would take the initiative to offer a stick of incense to the Buddha statue enshrined in the temple.

Xiang Yun took Lin Zhixin to the backyard of the temple, which is where the Zhaitang is located. There was a pool of three to four square meters in the courtyard. There was a toad with an open mouth hidden in the bottom of the pool. It was made of copper, its surface was oxidized, and its color was mottled.

There were so many silver coins scattered in the toad's mouth that it almost overflowed from its throat.

"People who come to this temple will throw coins into the toad's mouth. It is said that if the toad is hit, it can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, and bring good luck. Most of the wishes made by the pool will come true."

No wonder so many people threw coins into Toad's mouth, Lin Zhi laughed heartily, squinted at Xiang Yun, and asked:

"You still believe this?"

Xiang Yun took out a handful of coins from his trouser pocket, handed one to Lin Zhixin, and replied with a smile:

"I didn't believe it before, but today, I want to believe it."

After she finished speaking, she picked up another coin and threw it into the toad's mouth with a light flick.
