God said I would meet you

"mom!"

At the airport exit, Lin Jinyu dragged her suitcase and waved to her mother who was waiting not far away.

"Xiaoyu!" Lin's mother put on light makeup, put on a pair of seven-centimeter stiletto high heels, and waited for him at a conspicuous place beside the escalator with Uncle Zhao.

The mother and son hadn't seen each other for a year, and now the mother finally picked up her son, and hurriedly pulled him over, wishing to see it inside and out.

"It's okay to go all the way?" Lin's mother signaled Uncle Zhao to drive, and at the same time took Lin Jinyu's arm and walked to the parking place: "Is everyone on the road alone? No classmates drop by?"

"There are very few classmates in Shanghai over there. It's not like you don't know it. It's good to be alone, free and easy, so you don't have to accommodate others." Lin Jinyu is now much taller than his mother, and she politely refused her to help him pull the suitcase The request, pushed by oneself.

"That's right, but it's better to have a companion." Mother Lin led him to the side of the car and got into the co-pilot. Uncle Zhao tacitly opened the trunk in the driver's cab. Lin Jinyu put her luggage in and opened the rear door sat in.

He couldn't help but think of the first semester of his freshman year, when he went home for the first time, the route was unfamiliar, everything was dark, and he looked for people in the school group to ask if anyone would drop by and go back to Shanghai together... Actually, now that he thinks about it, he can't So what's the matter, so what if you have a companion, it's just psychological comfort, it's all about catching a plane, you have luggage, and others have luggage, in the end, everyone still cares about their own affairs.

It's a bit cloudy outside, and it looks like it's going to rain again. The winter in Shanghai is really quite rainy, with drizzle and continuous rain.

Mother Lin turned the air conditioner on the back seat and said, "Xiaoyu, is it cold? Can you go to a restaurant and eat Cantonese food later?"

Lin Jinyu likes Cantonese cuisine very much, especially the soups in Cantonese cuisine, whether it is bone sticks or chicken, duck and fish, after cooking for hours, the aroma when the lid of the purple casserole is lifted... Although Zhang Xinli can't cook.

Hearing the food, he cheered up: "Okay, Mom, have you made a reservation?"

"I've ordered it, Mommy treats you, order whatever you want."

Lin Jinyu would not be polite to his mother, he was a little happy, picked up his phone and sent a sentence "I'm here" to someone thousands of miles away.

After a few seconds, the other side replied: OK.

Just one?Nothing else?It's really perfunctory... Lin Jinyu replied: Oh.

Lin's mother was still chattering, asking him if he was happy at school, and then asking if he did well in the final exam. Lin Jinyu replied to his mother, asking him if she would practice yoga during the school days. Don't ask his father from the beginning to the end.

The relationship between him and his father is hard to describe now, his father is nothing anyway, he goes to work as usual, so he can call him when he finds time, but Lin Jinyu doesn't want to talk to his father very much, it's not an exaggeration to say that he hates or hates it, It's just...not ideal.

Mother Lin looked at him from the rearview mirror and said, "Why do you keep looking down at your phone? It's not good for your eyes."

Lin Jinyu waited for Zhang Xinli to see her "Oh" and then replied to the message, but after waiting for two or three minutes, he didn't reply, so she turned off the screen, raised her head and said, "It's nothing to watch, so don't watch it. "

Ms. Lin felt that when she looked down at her mobile phone, his mood was different from when he just got in the car: "Xiaoyu," she said, "Your dad will come back at night, let's go to the supermarket to buy some snacks or something, New Year's Eating."

"Okay." Lin Jinyu looked at the turbulent traffic outside the car window, and replied indifferently.

Uncle Zhao parked the car, and Mother Lin greeted Lin Jinyu to get out of the car, and the two entered the box arm in arm.

"Look for yourself," Lin's mother handed him the menu: "What do you want to eat?"

Lin Jinyu took it, supported his chin, flipped through the menu hastily... halfway through the menu, the phone rang, he took it over and looked at it, and saw the message Zhang Xinli sent him: Are you home?I'm just at the ticket check, so it's not convenient to type.

It was a bit like explaining something that just answered him with a single word, Lin Jinyu thought: So he would also specifically explain such a fart thing.

Before he could think about what to reply, he saw another message from over there: Be happy at home, I will miss you.

Those who miss you, those who miss you... Lin Jinyu's mood is like a light sparrow, which suddenly took off.The corner of his mouth curled unconsciously, looked at the menu, and said, "Lobster soup with rice, as well as sesame chicken, spicy crab, bamboo shoot shell fish... for dessert, poplar nectar."

Mother Lin said on the side: "Choose a few side dishes, all of which are seafood."

"Hmm..." Lin Jinyu was in a good mood now, and ordered a few vegetarian dishes that his mother usually likes, and then returned the menu to the waiter.

Mother Lin felt it was strange. A second ago, Lin Jinyu seemed to be in a mediocre manner. In just such a second, he glanced at his phone, and his mood and state were completely different.

The person who knows you best in the world may not be your best friend, or even your lover or children, but your mother.Mother Lin was keenly aware of the difference between her son and the past. There seemed to be something in the phone that affected his emotions, and his happiness and anger were all affected by that mysterious thing...but what could it be?For someone with a strong sense of self like his son, what can...

The three of them ate this meal for seven or eight hundred. After the dishes were ready, Lin Jinyu took a photo, lowered her head and sent it to someone, and then smiled at her phone...Mother Lin was more sure that her son was in trouble.

He hasn't been back for more than half a year, and his room is still so comfortable. Mrs. Zhou deliberately cleaned it the day before, just waiting for him to come back to live in.

In the evening when his father came back, Lin Jinyu went to the supermarket with him to buy some food and came back. He excused himself to rest because he was exhausted, and went into the room alone, closed the door, and then quietly locked it.

The few seconds before the video call was connected was always uncomfortable. Lin Jinyu closed the window, took out the earphones...just plugged it in and it went through.

Zhang Xinli's side looked like it was outdoors, the wind was blowing, and there was a lot of noise. The two of them couldn't touch each other through the distant screen. They could only see each other's face and hear each other's voice.Zhang Xinli said, "Jinyu?"

"What?" Lin Jinyu leaned against the bed and said, "Have you arrived at school, and you won't say anything when you arrive."

"It's only been a while," Zhang Xinli said, "I don't dare to keep sending you messages, I'm afraid that if you keep looking at your phone, your parents will see something."

When Lin Jinyu was not in a relationship, he didn't leave his mobile phone very often at home. He said: "It's too cautious, my parents don't care about me so much."

"Yes," Zhang Xinli asked, "Where are your parents?"

"My mom watches TV in the living room, and my dad doesn't know what to do in the study room," Lin Jinyu said, "I'm in my own room. It's okay to keep secrets. Please don't worry about the organization."

Zhang Xinli thought he was funny sometimes, and said, "Okay, pay attention to yourself, I have shifted my part-time job to the year before, and I plan to find you in about a week."

This is the result of their final discussion. Zhang Xinli agreed to come to Shanghai to celebrate the new year with him after going back to school... Although considering Lin Jinyu's father, the two of them will probably have to engage in underground work, but it doesn't matter, there must be a step one step at a time.

Speaking of this topic, Lin Jinyu faintly looked forward to it. He never thought that he would want to see someone so much before, and it would take a long time to see someone apart: "Okay, wait...call me when you arrive, and I will pick you up secretly." .”

The two chatted for a while, but there was nothing nutritious. They just talked about classmates, friends, and family... But the chat was very lively and interesting.

The phone call lasted more than 40 minutes. Lin Jinyu accompanied Zhang Xinli to get on and off the bus, entered the school, had dinner, and returned to the dormitory at the far end of the network cable. It felt like previewing the long-distance relationship in advance.

They kept talking until Lin Jinyu's phone was almost dead.He said "wait for me for a while", turned over and looked for the charger, but it seemed that he had stuffed the charger in his schoolbag, which was lying on the sofa in the living room at the moment.

Before Lin Jinyu could decide whether to go out and get it or forget it, he heard his mother knocking on the door outside and said, "Xiaoyu? Come out, what are you doing hiding in there by yourself? Lock the door."

"My mother is looking for me, so I'll hang up first." Lin Jinyu said this in a low voice, thought for a while, and added: "Well... I miss you too."

After speaking, he hurriedly pulled off the earphones, opened the door, yawned, and said, "I'm too tired from flying, I want to sleep for a while."

"Hehe, the sun is coming out in the west, you still have time to go to bed early?" Mother Lin said, "Come out to try on clothes, it's not suitable to change."

His mother likes to buy clothes for him. Although she hasn't worked as hard as she did when she was a child after high school, she still buys them once or twice a year. She chooses big brands, which are much more expensive than Lin Jinyu's own.

Lin Jinyu agreed, turned off the lights and went out.

Mother Lin took out a few bags from the cabinet, a complete set of thermal underwear, padded shirts, down jackets... There were four or five pieces, almost filling the small sofa.

"Come and try it," Lin's mother said, "It's a set, let me see if it fits."

Lin Jinyu doesn't like trying on clothes very much, and usually buys them directly when she sees them: "Hey, Mom, I actually know how to buy them myself, why don't you treat yourself better and buy more skin care products."

"Skin care products are skin care products, and clothes are clothes," Mama Lin said, "I know you usually buy it yourself, so I'll buy it for you once or twice a year, so hurry up and try it."

Lin Jinyu took off his jacket and tried on thermal underwear first. The innermost part of his shirt was a very thin bottoming shirt, so he didn't have to take it off, just put it on.

The air conditioner in the living room is on, but it's not cold. Lin Jinyu changed it, moved it, and said, "It's okay, it's a bit tight."

"Have you gained weight?" Mother Lin came up to pull the hem of his clothes: "Turn around and look at the back."

"No, it didn't weigh a few catties." Lin Jinyu was quite satisfied with her current weight: "I run every day at school."

"I don't know you yet," Mother Lin said, "I'm too lazy to die..."

Because there was a piece of clothing inside, it was not easy to wear it well, so she helped Lin Jinyu and tidied up his sleeves and the clothes on his shoulders. Mother Lin turned behind him and looked around, her eyes suddenly paused .

Lin Jinyu said: "Are you ready, Mom? Hurry up and let me go in after the test."

Mother Lin stretched out her hand, took a look at the clothes on his back by tidying up his clothes, and said, "What's the rush? I've been locked in the room for a couple of months after I come back every year."

"There's no Laoguan here, that's a reasonable private space..." Lin Jinyu wanted to say a few more words, but before he could speak, Mother Lin said, "Xiaoyu, you still have that little red spot on your neck... How did it come here?"

Lin Jinyu was startled, and almost subconsciously raised her hand and scratched her neck, leaving a few pale white scratches, which gradually turned from white to red, just like the red spot on her neck...that was...

Eating, drinking, playing and playing around, the subway and the plane, he himself has completely forgotten about it. It was winter, and the thick clothes and hats with fur collars folded his back and half of his body. The neck is covered tightly, and you can't see anything under normal circumstances, but who would have thought...

Lin Jinyu was a little flustered, but she kept her composure as much as possible and said, "I...that's..."
