The assistant looked towards the door: "No, here we come."

She shouted to Lin Nai: "Miss Lin."

He Qingrou patted Wu Liang on the back, turned around, and Wu Liang also turned around, lying on her back in her arms, staring at Lin Nai blindly, and when someone approached, turned over and jumped down, running to Lin Nai .

"The five taels will be left to you. After you go back, try to feed goat milk powder or canned food. It is greedy and will keep barking when it is hungry, but don't feed it too much. Two to three times a day is enough." Assistant Said to Lin Nai.

Wuliang stretched out his claws to hook Linnai's trouser legs, and his chubby body pressed against her instep. Linnai avoided it, and bent over to lift up the little cub, which screamed dissatisfied.

"Thank you." Lin Nai said politely, and glanced at He Qingrou from the corner of her eye.

"It should be," the assistant replied. As soon as the words finished, other colleagues asked her to help. She smiled apologetically and pointed to the seats in the lobby. "Would you like to sit in the lobby first?"

"No need," Linnai replied, "You go to work first, anyway, I will come back tomorrow night."

"Alright, see you tomorrow night."

Her voice sounded hoarse than on the phone, and she felt a little struggling even to speak. He Qingrou looked sideways at her.

At the hot pot restaurant, she couldn't see it clearly from a distance. Standing in front of her at this moment, she found that the corners of Lin Nai's mouth were dry. Today, she had applied a thin layer of lipstick, but her complexion was still pale, and her face was slightly pale.

Lin Nai also lowered her eyes to look at her, the rain just stopped, especially at night, it was cool, but He Qingrou was wearing thin clothes.

"Is it cold?" She whispered suddenly, with concern in her tone, without the original indifference and restraint.

She had just eaten, so she was definitely not cold, and He Qingrou was always warm, and she basically dressed like this when she was not working in summer.

"It's not cold." He Qingrou opened his mouth and whispered.

The toll office is located in the lobby. Although it was late, there were quite a lot of people queuing up to pay the toll, so there were as many cats and dogs coming and going. There were a few curious small dogs who saw the fat orange ball in Linnai's arms. They all gathered around to watch, one of the Pomeranians barked twice excitedly, and jumped to run, but its owner quickly grabbed it and smiled embarrassedly.

Wuliang was frightened, and kept shrinking into Linnai's arms, lowering his head.Maybe I stayed in the cage for a long time this week, surrounded by cats and dogs, and some sick animals howled. Now when I hear a dog barking, I am afraid. It was not afraid of dogs before, and often fought fiercely with dogs. fight.

He Qingrou wanted to touch its back to comfort it, but finally stopped.

Pomeranian didn't stop, jumping happily, and the other few were eager to try, staring at each other.

"Let's go out first." He Qingrou looked at the little guy and said softly.

The two walked out of the hall side by side, turned left, walked for a short distance, and walked into a path where the street lights had not yet been repaired. The roads elsewhere were dry, the path was too bad, and there was still water in the crack. stones, and was splashed with muddy water.

On weekends, shops generally close later. Unlike yesterday’s deserted and quiet place, the streets are bustling with people now. There are hawkers pushing carts in front of the stalls, surrounded by students and young couples.

Borrowing the faint light from the shop, He Qingrou walked slowly. Because the family was out for dinner, she specially dressed up and wore high heels.

"Don't hang out with uncles and aunts?" Lin Nai asked hoarsely, holding Wuliang in one hand.

He Qingrou looked at her: "I went shopping, I just sent them back."

The temperature changes greatly in different seasons, it is easy to catch a cold, and it is difficult to speak because of the mute. I don't know if this person has gone to the doctor. He Qingrou opened and closed his mouth, and Lin Nai happened to turn his head to meet her eyes.

He Qingrou mumbled: "You... have you been to the hospital?"

After finishing speaking, she turned her eyes away and stared at the ground. The stars and the moon gathered in the sky tonight, and the water in the cracks reflected the moon, sparkling and shining.

"Look." Lin Nai held her up and led her away.

It was extremely uncomfortable to be held by one hand, and Wuliang yelled pitifully, his tail curled around Linnai's arm, but Linnai ignored it.

He Qingrou froze, and continued to walk slowly. She was warm, but Lin Nai's hands were cold.

"Go back and wear an extra dress, the temperature has been low recently," she said.

Lin Nai hummed.

For a short distance, it took a long time due to the extremely slow walking, and both of them slowed down tacitly.

Wuliang hangs his feet and picks up Linnai's clothes, but he obediently doesn't make a fuss.

Out of the small road, there is a wide white and gray road. He Qingrou's car is parked under an old tree, and Lin Nai's car is parked next to her. Compared with here, the old tree is dark, but quiet, and everyone is quiet. No.

He Qingrou walked a little ahead, and Lin Nai followed behind with the cat in his arms, but there was always a short distance between them.

This section of the road is going fast, and it will be here in a short time.

With her back turned to her, He Qingrou stood there for a while, Lin Nai didn't move, there was still a gap between the two of them.

Wuliang followed Linnai's arm, climbed up, climbed to her shoulders and held tightly, and tilted his head to look at He Qingrou, and then looked up at Linnai, as if he was puzzled.

Both were too silent.

He Qingrou stood still for a while, then took out the car keys as if nothing had happened, just as she grabbed the key, the cold hand wrapped around her wrist again, holding it tightly, her fingertips trembled.

Behind was the bustling street, this man took a step forward, and actually embraced her with one hand from behind, holding her in his arms.

Maybe it's because of a cold, but this person's breathing is hot and heavy, spraying all over his face, with a scorching aftermath in the numbness.

"Are you angry?" She leaned into her ear and asked, her voice was deliberately lowered, it was originally hoarse, but now it was a little ambiguous.

He Qingrou was uncomfortably burned by the breath, and turned her face slightly: "No..."

Lin Nai kissed her ear affectionately, He Qingrou turned to face her, so as not to push her further, Lin Nai picked up her hand again, persistently.

The light under the old tree is weak, but there are many people not far away. The intimate behavior of the two of them attracted the sneaky eyes of passers-by. Lin Nai couldn't see them with his back turned, but He Qingrou could take a panoramic view of the movements and expressions of these people, curious, Shocked, or indifferent.

Lin Nai squeezed her hand to bring her back to her senses, and lowered her head, which meant not to avoid other people's eyes.

The closer it gets, the heavier the heat.

He Qingrou's heart twitched, but she didn't avoid it, her eyes were half drooped, her chin was raised slightly, her red lips were slightly closed, even though there were more and more people coming and going from that side peeking here.

She grasped Linnai's hand tightly, with some strength.

We're about to meet, just a stone's throw away...

"Meow--"

A cat's paw came over and patted Lin Nai's side face with one paw.

He Qingrou was stunned.

Wuliang was deeply resentful, so he patted Lin Nai again, and then called He Qingrou aggrievedly—Lin Nai held it with one hand, and its legs were hanging all the time, and it felt uncomfortable after hanging for a long time.

He Qingrou immediately reacted, and curled the corner of her mouth: "Put it in the car quickly, it will be very uncomfortable if you hold it like this."

"Meow..." Wuliang yelled cooperatively.

Lin Nai opened the door and threw it into the car.

It landed on all fours, crawled meekly inside, climbed to the innermost part, stepped down, turned its back to Linnai, and got angry.

Lin Nai ignored it, and closed the car door without any hesitation. It flicked its tail, turned around, and ran back to grab the window. Unfortunately, the window was closed tightly, and it couldn't.

The corner of He Qingrou's mouth curled up again, she opened her car door, sat sideways in, and closed it.

"Go back earlier, it's quite late now," she said.

When the hot pot was hot tonight, she had observed Lin Nai and the lady in formal clothes a few times. Although the mother and daughter were silent, they did not face each other coldly. There should be conflicts. Lin Nai stayed outside for a long time at this time It's not right.

She drove away from the old tree.

Linnai waited for her to drive into the boundless night before getting into the car. Wuliang jumped from the back seat to the front and angrily pulled at the corner of her clothes. Linnai picked up the noisy brat and put it on the passenger seat. drive back.

The new urban area is more prosperous than the old urban area, with bright lights all the way, and there is still a lot of traffic at this time.

When Lin Nai returned to the small villa on the waterfront of the covered bridge, it was close to 11:30, and the light was on in the living room at this moment. She entered the password to enter the door, and saw Tang Jinyu sitting on the sofa flipping through the photo album.

In the album are photos of her when she was a child, most of them are single photos of her, and there are photos of her and Song Tianzhong together, but there are only a few photos of their real family of three.

Tang Jinyu took off her suit jacket and wore a thin shirt. She noticed that Lin Nai had entered, but she didn't raise her head, she kept looking at the photos.

Without saying a word, Lin Nai put Wuliang back into the cat's litter, and then entered the room.

After she entered, Tang Jinyu raised her eyes to look in the direction of the room.

In the huge house, it was unusually quiet.

The mother and daughter lived under the same roof, but said very little.Tang Jinyu sat on the sofa for half a minute, her straight back slightly bent, she put the photo album on the coffee table, and was about to go back to the room.

But suddenly a piece of clothing hung over his shoulders.

Lin Nai didn't know when to come.She held Tang Yuyu's neckline and sat down next to each other.

Tang Jinyu glanced at her.

Lin Nai waited for her to speak, her mother understood, otherwise she wouldn't have waited half the night for her.

Tang Jinyu pulled the album back, turned to the first page, paused, and said, "When was this photo taken?"

A photo of a family of three.

"When I was just in college, Uncle Song helped me take the photo, and it was in Xidan." Lin Nai replied.

Tang Jinyu nodded: "I remember that I was short on time with your dad, and I will go back to Guangzhou in the evening."

Lin Nai said nothing.

Tang Jinyu turned two pages, and found a picture of Lin Nai wearing a racing suit: "Where is this one?"

Lin Nai was taken aback: "The first time I participated in an official car race was in San Francisco, USA."

"When?"

"19 years old in summer."

"I almost forgot," Tang Jinyu said, "It seems that you called me to see it, but I'm not free."

"Yes." At that time, Tang Jinyu was in the United States negotiating business with a partner, and couldn't get away.

Tang Jinyu continued to flip through: "I don't have much memory of these photos."

Lin Nai was speechless. She grew up with Tang Yuyu, but she spent too little time together, let alone with her father. Her parents were always busy with their careers, and the family gathered less and separated more.

"You like to play racing, and your dad and I have always supported it," Tang Jinyu said, flipping through the album, almost all of them were photos of Linnai's racing car, but it stopped on the penultimate page, and the rest were all five. Two photos, "On the day of your accident, your father and I were abroad, and we came back in the middle of the night. When we arrived at the hospital, you were still in the emergency room..."

"It's all over." Lin Nai said.

Tang Jinyu was silent for a long time, and said, "I won't let you play racing anymore, do you still hate me?"

Linnai: "I never hated you."

Tang Jinyu said: "Didn't you complain for a long time, and you didn't even go home."

Lin Nai smiled indifferently: "I can always find other things to do, just pass it."

Tang Jinyu paused and did not speak again.

Lin Nai took the photo album over: "Go to bed early, you still have a plane tomorrow morning."

Tang Jinyu sat still, Lin Nai got up and put the photo album on the shelf.

"The cold war with me is because of the one named He Qingrou?" Tang Jinyu looked at her back and asked.

Lin Nai put the photo album down: "I didn't have a cold war with you."

She really wants to fight coldly, so she won't come back at night.

"Your father won't agree." Tang Jinyu didn't want to talk about this anymore, there was no point in arguing.

"I know," Linnai turned to look at her, "What about you?"

Tang Jinyu didn't answer, but said without thinking: "It's a boring one."

I don't know who said this.

Lin Nai said, from the very beginning, she had no intention of hiding it. Yun Xining can find out, but Tang Jinyu and Lin's father can find out more easily. One day they will bring him back, so why bother.

"I'll take you to the airport tomorrow morning." Lin Nai said.

Tang Yuyu didn't say a word.

In the cat's nest, Wuliang lay motionless on his stomach.
