Ruan Qiuchi took a step forward: "Don't look."

However, Lin Mu had already opened the book, but due to Ruan Qiuchi's stop, she could only see a line of neatly written words with a black carbon pen on the yellowed paper.

It begins: "Day 701."

Lin Mu didn't need to think about it, and he knew what the "701st day" meant.

Lin Mu observed Ruan Qiuchi's expression, and closed the book titled "Teaching for Making Talismans and Seals" but it was a diary: "Don't worry, I won't read it."

Ruan Qiuchi's expression was still tense, and he tried to explain: "It's just some records of daily life, nothing special."

Lin Mu nodded lightly, touched the book cover with his fingertips, and some bad memories came to his mind.

She would be out of the closet suddenly because her parents read her diary without permission. At that time, electronic products were not developed, and emotions were almost conveyed by words. When she was in love with Ruan Qiuchi, she would often write in her diary Some love speeches and some important things were recorded, but in the end they all became the handle of her parents.

Later, they agreed not to keep a diary.

"Ah Ruan, writing a diary means handing over one's handle to others. It's too passive."

"Then...then we won't write a diary in the future."

"Yes, yes, don't write a diary. If you have any thoughts in the future, just tell me directly, and I will tell you directly when I have something on my mind."

"Okay." Ruan Qiuchi agreed with a blushing face.

As the memories faded, Lin Mu squeezed the "Teaching for Making Talismans and Seals" tightly, her fingertips turned white and her heart ached. She broke her promise again, and Ruan Qiuchi never had the chance to say those words to her in person.

These years, Ruan Qiuchi was afraid and helpless, but she just opened and closed her eyes, and spent 18 years with ease, and she didn't experience anything.

The book in his hand suddenly became heavy, Lin Mu raised his head and said, "Ah Ruan, writing a diary is to hand over the handle to others."

Ruan Qiuchi said softly, "I know."

She kept a diary just to keep those emotions that had nowhere to vent on paper, and also to prevent herself from forgetting their memories.

She never forgot the agreement between Lin Mu and her.

"That's good." Lin Mu raised his hand and rubbed the sore corners of his eyes, and gave the book to Ruan Qiuchi: "Here you are."

Ruan Qiuchi immediately took the book over and didn't intend to put it back on the shelf.

Lin Mu looked up at the books on the bookshelf. In addition to the first book, there are also the second and third books in "Teaching for Making Talismans and Seals"...

She asked, "Are the rest of these diaries?"

"No." Ruan Qiuchi's voice couldn't be softer. She is a person who can hide her emotions and feelings very well. Even in the past, she would not easily express her feelings for Lin Mu. Now she is suddenly caught by Lin Mu. Mu discovered the carrier that carried many years of feelings, as if Lin Mu had seen his soul all of a sudden, and was inexplicably nervous.

Lin Mu exited the study thoughtfully, sat on the sofa with a dull expression, and there were still melon seed shells on the coffee table. After a good Spring Festival, it was disrupted by the arrival of Ruan Qiuchi's brother and sister-in-law.

Lin Mu stood up and cleaned up the trash. Ruan Qiuchi had already come out of the study. Before she could talk to Lin Mu, her parents called.

"Your brother and the others went to your place to pay New Year's greetings with good intentions, but they didn't even have a good meal, Ruan Qiuchi, the longer your wings grow, the harder they become."

"For Chinese New Year, if you insist on teaching your child, didn't Axu just play with a water gun? Why are you so big and so fussy about her?"

"And your girlfriend, I don't care if you like men or women, but you have to bring people back for us to see, don't always fall in love secretly, like something."

Ruan Qiuchi turned on the mute and let them talk, and when the other end was tired, he also hung up the phone.

"Lin Mu, your painting is broken. I have already told Mr. Han, it's not because you are lazy."

Lin Mu's mind is now full of Ruan Qiuchi's diary, she said absent-mindedly, "Yeah."

Ruan Qiuchi opened his mouth, didn't say anything, and got up to clean the kitchen.

Lin Mu nestled on the sofa, looked up at the direction of the kitchen, and then at the study room. She was trying to draw with a tablet, but she was just scribbling lines. At this moment, she had a deep understanding of what it means to be confused. .

During dinner, Lin Mu noticed that Ruan Qiuchi didn't eat vegetables and didn't eat well in the morning. She thought it was because of the brat.

"Ah Ruan, why don't you eat these dishes?"

Ruan Qiuchi paused, and said, "I've been to a place before, and the old people there would choose to be vegetarian on the first day of the Lunar New Year. They said that this is equivalent to being a vegetarian for a whole year, so I generally don't eat meat today."

Lin Mu looked at the ribs in the bowl: "Then why didn't you say earlier, I'll eat with you."

Ruan Qiuchi smiled and said, "You have already eaten meat in the morning, and you don't have to follow me to eat it, I can eat it alone."

"Okay." Lin Mu confirmed again, "Aren't you a firm materialist? Why do you still believe in these customs?"

Ruan Qiuchi: "I have always been."

But when a person has lust, he will start praying to God and worshiping Buddha, and she is no exception.

Ruan Qiuchi also agreed to sleep together because of his boasting about Haikou last night. After Lin Mu took a shower and dried his hair, he went directly into Ruan Qiuchi's bedroom.

Ruan Qiuchi was already prepared.

Lin Mu lay down next to Ruan Qiuchi, and said softly, "Ah Ruan, good night."

Ruan Qiuchi: "Good night."

Obviously Ruan Qiuchi was by her side, but Lin Mu kept her eyes open, without a trace of sleepiness. She wanted to turn over, but was afraid of waking Ruan Qiuchi up.

I don't know how long it has passed, but after confirming that Ruan Qiuchi has fallen asleep, Lin Mu quietly climbed out of bed, came to the door of the study, hesitated for a moment, and pushed the door open.

"Teaching for Making Talismans and Seals" was still placed on the bookshelf. Lin Mu walked to the bookshelf, raised his hand, and there were two villains fighting in his mind.

look?Still don't watch?She finally turned around and decided to wait until she asked Ruan Qiuchi tomorrow.

"What do you want to do?" Ruan Qiuchi's voice was soft, as if afraid of scaring her.

Lin Mu was stunned, when did Ruan Qiuchi follow?She didn't notice it at all.

Lin Mu decided not to hide it any more, but prepared his words and said, "I want to read your diary."

Ruan Qiuchi frowned slightly: "There is nothing in it, do you really want to read it?"

Lin Mu nodded: "I really want to see it."

I want to see tossing and turning and can't fall asleep.

Ruan Qiuchi looked into Lin Mu's eyes quietly. The diary is a very private thing, and it records a lot of things she would not say normally...

However, that person was Lin Mu.

She said: "It's on the bookshelf. Go to bed early after reading it. It's cold at night. Beware of catching a cold."

Lin Mu: "Okay, you go to bed first."

Ruan Qiuchi: "Yes."

When Ruan Qiuchi returned to the room, Lin Mu immediately picked up the book. Although the outer cover of the book was new, the paper inside was very old. Even the words Ruan Qiuchi written with a ballpoint pen on the title page had faded and were almost unrecognizable.

Fortunately, the text is written in carbon pen.

"On the 701st day, I decided to go back to school. I haven't been in good health recently. The doctor said I was anemic and needed to gain weight properly."

Lin Mu stared at the word "gain weight", and remembered Song Yao's saying that Ruan Qiuchi was thin and small at that time, so she continued to read.

"On the 702nd day, I don't know what to write, but I always want to record it. It's been almost two years, and I haven't heard from her at all."

"On the 713th day, I met a sister who was also looking for someone in the mountains today. She said that her husband was also missing. I suddenly saw a little hope. I am not the only one who is looking for a lover."

……

"On the 800th day, I have already returned to school, but Lin Mu still hasn't come back. Is she playing a prank? Maybe she will come back in a few days. She always likes to play pranks on me, and this time it must be a prank."

Ruan Qiuchi's diary is not written every day, and it is very short, often only one or two sentences, but these one or two sentences are enough for Lin Mu's eyes to turn red and his nose sore.

"On the 850th day, Lin Mu, the tooth marks you left on my wrist are almost gone, so I went to get a sun tattoo, it's ugly."

"On the 907th day, I have been having nightmares recently. In the dream, you appeared in front of me in various forms. The worst case was a dismembered corpse. But I know that dreams are all reversed. You must be fine."

"On the 1035th day, I found a job. I am a math teacher in Experimental High School. I am preparing lessons. Lin Mu, if you are doing well, I will be happier."

"On the 1205th day, Song Yao finally found her husband. It was in the no-man's land deep in the mountains. Only a few corpses were found, and the rest were eaten by wild animals. I was able to find them because of the clothes he was wearing, but I don't even know what you are wearing. I don't know about clothes."

"On the 1645th day, Lin Mu, I almost found you again today. A corpse was found on Jishan Mountain. Its characteristics resembled yours, but I knew at a glance that it was not you. Fortunately, it was not you. If you would Way to appear, I would rather never hear from you."

……

"On the 2765th day, Lin Mu, I have become a godmother. My goddaughter is Song Yao's daughter. She is a very good little girl. You will definitely like her very much. We wanted to invite you in together, but I don't know. Whether you want to be someone else's godmother, let's talk when you come back."

"On the 2842nd day, I have been obsessed with traveling in recent years. This time we came to a Miao village. The villagers here are all dressed in Miao costumes. When they walk, the silverware jingles, which is very nice. I always heard that Miao girls can give I don’t know if it’s true or not because the heartless people put Gu on.”

"On the 2843rd day, it happened to be the market today. I saw a fortune-teller in the town. It cost five yuan for a fortune-telling. I tried to ask her to do it for me. She was really accurate and said that I was looking for someone. Surprised, she asked her where should I go to find you, she said with a smile, I am looking for my wishful husband, as long as the fate comes, you will appear. Lin Mu, will you still appear? "

"On the 3201st day, we went on a trip again. This time we came to a small village. The sorceress here looks very powerful. She also works as a piercer and tattoo artist. I just saw a ghost story in Tianya before, saying that there is one. The witch can use tattoos to channel spirits, so I asked her, but she really said yes, I washed off the sun tattoo, and asked her to re-tattoo, it is a weird moon, Lin Mu, if you can sense it, you Just come back to me."

"Day 3260, this tattoo didn't work, but maybe it will work tomorrow, whatever the outcome, I'll give it a try."

"Day 3741, today is my 30th birthday, and my parents started urging me to get married again, Lin Mu, if you don't come back, I'll just find someone to marry, and when you come back, I won't be yours anymore gone."

Ah Ruan lied again.

Lin Mu's tears fell on the paper uncontrollably, forming a cloud of water mist, and she hurriedly wiped it off.

"On the 5563rd day, I've earned enough money for both of us, but I can't hold on any longer. I don't know what I'm looking for, or what I'm waiting for. I don't even know if you're still alive."

"On the 5575th day, Lin Mu, I have been in a bad state of mind recently. Dr. Shen will hypnotize me again, hoping that I can have a good night's sleep."

I didn't write a diary for a long time, and on December 2020, 12, Ruan Qiuchi wrote the last diary.

"On the 6602nd day, she finally came back. She was still the same as before, but when she looked at me, her eyes were no longer eager, but cautious. But these are not important, as long as she is still alive."
