depicting time

Returning from the stairs to the first floor of the mall, they resumed their identities as ordinary people.

The rest area of ​​the shopping mall is set outside the coffee shop. They just want to take a nap in the rest area, but they have to suffer from the strong aroma of coffee.

Song Ting was still busy with the follow-up matters, and never took his eyes off the phone.Xu Yan sat very close to him, but always adhered to the principles and did not look at the phone screen.

Fu Ye and Gu Manwen couldn't bear the temptation of the aroma of coffee, so they went into the coffee shop together.Soon there were only the two of them left in the rest area.

Xu Yan could only watch the people coming and going in the shopping mall in boredom. No matter how sparsely populated Jianshan is, the shopping mall at night can still be very lively.

It's just that there are not many young people.

I don't know if Li Mingyi still wants to stay in Jianshan after he comes back?Will his love for his hometown be as strong as before?

"What are you thinking about?"

Song Ting asked suddenly. When Xu Yan turned his head to look, Song Ting had already put down his phone and was staring at him wholeheartedly.

Xu Yan replied, "I'm asking and answering myself, guessing about Li Mingyi's future. I think he will still stick to his original choice. In the eyes of outsiders, it is ten years, but in Li Mingyi's heart, it is just a momentary drastic change. No matter how unbearable he is, he will They will never let go of unfinished business.”

Still thinking about Li Mingyi...

Song Ting stared at Xu Yan with more guesswork and doubts in his eyes. He couldn't bring up sensitive topics, so he asked from a different angle, "Xu Yan, you seem to have a special affection for people who work hard?"

Xu Yan admitted, "Yes, a person who is serious, focused, and single-minded must love life very much."

After working hard, it is finally linked to loving life.The more he longs for something, the more he lacks it.

"Yes." Song Ting had already found his answer...

What Xu Yan thinks now is still influenced by the past. Even if he doesn't realize it, every word he says and everything he does still reveals the sadness in his heart all the time.

Yu Yang's judgment was completely correct.

Song Ting didn't dare to remain silent for too long, and said, "We won't be going home today, we'll be staying at the hotel here."

"Not going back?"

Xu Yan was a little surprised, "We used to go home no matter how late it was."

And Fu Ye and Gu Manwen's luggage is still in the living room...do they really just leave it alone?

It's not like Song Ting's style.

Song Ting smiled and said, "It's my selfishness, I want to show you around here. There are too many people who know you and me in Area A."

When he came here, he still had a task to do, so Song Ting wanted to covet some time, "Xu Yan, we haven't had a good date yet."

"Hmm..." Xu Yan blushed completely when he heard the word 'date'.He hurriedly stood up without looking directly at Song Ting and said, "Let's go shopping now!"

When the two people who entered the coffee shop came out, Song Ting and Xu Yan were no longer in the rest area.

Both Fu Ye's and Gu Manwen's cell phones vibrated, and it was Song Ting's message from the hotel.

Gu Manwen felt deeply regretful, "Damn it, let them run away! Where can I put my rotten girl's soul?"

Fu Ye snorted coldly and said, "You put it wherever you like, and you still want to be a light bulb all the time? Be careful the boss kills you!"

……

The lights in the shopping mall were bright, but Song Ting took Xu Yan outside, "I think you should prefer shopping outside, it's too stuffy inside."

The night wind outside is cool, the lights of the square in the distance are particularly bright in the dark night, and the sound of music can be faintly heard.Xu Yan affirmed his words and said, "I prefer to go shopping in squares than shopping malls."

"Let's go to the square over there and have a look."

"Okay." Song Ting took Xu Yan's hand and led him to the lively place.

The car lights are connected in series on the road, illuminating the silence on the road, and also illuminating the figures on the side of the road.

Song Ting slightly turned to the person beside him, and asked amidst the occasional whistle, "Is there such a thing as pressing the road during the date?"

Xu Yan took advantage of the darkness to hide the smile on his lips, and replied, "I haven't dated before, so I don't know. Do you have any experience?"

"Coincidentally, I haven't dated either, so I have no experience."

The oncoming traffic approached the side of the road, and the lights broke into the dark place, illuminating the smiles on their faces, and then returning the darkness to them.

Song Ting asked again, "Do you know what you will do when you press the road?"

Xu Yan shook his head as he expected, and he replied directly, "Holding hands, chatting, and hiding in the corner to kiss. How about we finish it one by one?"

Holding hands, chatting, kissing... Xu Yan thought about these three items in his heart, and said without thinking, "But we have already completed the first two..."

When he turned his head to meet Song Ting's gaze, he knew he had fallen into a trap.Song Ting looked at him with a smile,

Said, "So now we have to finish the last item, find a corner to hide."

The small woods beside the road are very secretive and suitable for hiding.

Song Ting didn't give Xu Yan time to react, and directly led him into a secluded place.The darkness here made Xu Yan a little scared, "There's no need for such a corner..."

Romance is always not easy, Song Ting looked around before finding a thicker tree, and then pressed someone against the tree.He replied, "It's quiet enough here that I can hear you."

"You can hear it from outside... well..."

Song Ting's kiss became stronger in the night, Xu Yan could only bear it silently, being teased by his breath silently.

And Xu Yan was also wrong, what Song Ting wanted to hear was not his voice.

It was the sound of disordered breathing, and the moans he couldn't hide from time to time.

After escaping from the grove, Xu Yan's heartbeat hadn't returned to normal. Song Ting asked him again, "Is there anything else about pressing the road?"

Xu Yan replied decisively, "No, let's have a good chat now."

There must always be a suitable topic for chatting. In order to avoid further incidents, Xu Yan asked a question in time, "Song Ting, when did you become a space-time restorer?"

Song Ting laughed silently for a while, then quickly returned to his serious appearance, and replied, "It was a long time ago."

"How long is a long time? There is always an accurate time. You even remember the first time we met so clearly."

When Song Ting mentioned the room password for the first time, Xu Yan didn't react.Later Xu Yan went to check the chat records between him and Song Ting, only to find out that February 2th was the day when they met for the first time.

He remembers such a young day so clearly, not to mention the important day of becoming a space-time restorer, how could he not remember it?

Song Ting shook his head, "I can't tell the exact time. I can remember the time when we first met because this day is very special."

Xu Yan knew how good Song Ting's memory was, so what he said at this time was completely illogical.However, Xu Yan was quickly defeated by his next words.

He said, "Time that has nothing to do with you, no matter how special it is, it doesn't have much meaning."

Xu Yan couldn't refute the words that were too sweet.

I don't want to refute either.

Now Xu Yan is so happy that he wants to take tonight's night home, hide it, and cherish it for a lifetime.

After leaving the quiet side of the road, they waited in front of the traffic lights, and after a while there was a lively square.

Song Ting dragged the distracted person through the green light in time, and resumed the topic he had stopped, "I can tell you an approximate time, almost five years ago."

Five years is a long time, and time stands still for only ten years.Xu Yan asked curiously again, "What about Fu Ye and the others?"

"They're two years ahead of you."

Is it only two years early?

Xu Yan couldn't believe the answer, and asked, "Could it be that you were the only one guarding Area A two years ago?"

Song Ting replied, "No, Xu Yan, you overestimated me again. If you want to protect an area, it's not enough to rely on my strength alone. Have you forgotten that there is a rescue team? And..."

He paused here, and suddenly asked, "Do you still remember our team number?"

Xu Yan replied accurately, "Group 023, and I'm member 236..." This was the first day of the mission, Song Ting told him personally.Xu Yan always kept in mind that he was the last member of No. 236.

They had been chatting away from people who passed by occasionally. At this time, after one person passed by, Xu Yan continued in a retracted voice, "I knew it a long time ago. There are only 67 people who actually exist, which are far larger than my number." This number shows that many people are gone..."

Unknowingly, they talked about heavy topics, and Night Breeze became cold.

Song Ting has seen more and experienced more differences than Xu Yan.However, he did not fall into grief like Xu Yan, and only said, "The road at the beginning was definitely not easy. We can only learn from our mistakes and make up for our mistakes in time. Only in this way can we be worthy of their sacrifice."

Xu Yan replied, "I understand."

Their pace gradually slowed down, making the journey a little longer.Song Ting continued, "Group 023 is the current group in Area A. Two years ago, Group 001 and Group 012 existed in Area A. The leader of Group 001 is gone, and the leaders of Group 012 and Group 023 it's all me.

From the 012 group to the 023 group, what happened in the middle?Xu Yan couldn't help being curious, but he didn't know how to ask...

After deliberating for a long time, he asked, "The members of Group 012... why did you leave?"

Song Ting replied, "They quit on their own, because they couldn't bear the psychological pressure of performing the task."

This answer was much better than what Xu Yan had expected, "It's as long as the person is still there."

only……

Song Ting will become isolated and helpless because of their departure.It was impossible for Fu Ye and Gu Manwen to appear in such a timely manner. Before they appeared, Song Ting had to guard his status as the team leader and wait for the new members to arrive alone.

Despite the existence of a rescue team, he still wants to enter the space-time fragments alone... This test is too great.

Thinking of them today, Xu Yan said with emotion, "It's good to be like this now. I hope the four of us can persist until eight years later."

I hope Song Ting no longer has to face the difficulties of the task alone.

Song Ting replied with a smile, "It's definitely possible."
