Whether Gu Rong is good or not, Xu Nian naturally understood, she secretly smiled and didn't want to talk about it.

A person's life is always long and boring, except for class, every day is an experiment, and when he is free, he will go back to Shen's house with Shen Wan to see Bagin. , Tease the little guy like teasing a child.The Shen family also prepared a special room for Ba Jin, and the treatment was better than in the red brick house. Ba Jin's daily life became eating, playing, and waiting at the gate every evening, waiting for Xu Nian to come.

In the second week of school, it gradually became busy, and the classrooms and laboratories ran at both ends, but Xu Nian still went to see the little ones as much as possible when he had time.On Wednesday, the school publicized the mechanical drawing competition. This is an annual national competition. The selection will be held in the school first. After calculating the time, the preliminary competition will be held on the 28th, which happens to be the day before Gu Rong returns to China. Xu Nian chose sign up.

Thursday is September 9th, which is also the 15th day of the eighth month in the lunar calendar. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a three-day long vacation. Shen Wan's family travels to Thailand.

At this time, daylight saving time is in effect, and there is a time difference of nearly six hours between France and here. At twelve noon, which is around six in the morning in France, Gu Rong called.

Xu Nian was cooking, so he quickly put on his earphones, and answered the phone while cooking: "Just woke up?"

On the other end of the phone, Gu Rong was drowsy, just got up from the bed, and was changing clothes, "Well, I'm going out soon, are you cooking?"

Xu Nian also hummed.

"I heard from Wan Wan that they traveled to Thailand and lived alone today?"

"No," Xu Nian said, "There's still eight catties, it's right next to it."

Hearing Xu Nian calling his name, Bajin responded with two "barks" and squatted obediently at the door waiting. Xu Nian cooked his own meal and cooked for it alone. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a good day for family reunion , must live a richer and grander life than usual, and this richness and grandness are reflected in the food in ordinary people's homes.

Gu Rong connected the wireless earphones to his ears, tidied up quickly, and asked unhurriedly, "What kind of food did you cook?"

The opposite side reported the names of the dishes one by one: "Braised pork ribs, steamed sea bass, and fried lettuce. I wanted to make soup, but the weather was a bit stuffy, so I went directly to the mung bean soup I bought at the alley."

Gu Rong hooked her ears and said, "I ordered mooncakes for you, and they will be delivered at 12:30, please pay attention to check."

Xu Nian was taken aback, but she didn't expect this. It's far away, and she can't do much during the holidays. Why bother, the only time I took the initiative to call, it was picked up by the agent.

The last catwalk, it must be very busy.

"Okay," she replied, turned off the fire, muttered for a while, "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

A low laugh came from the phone, followed by a cold voice—"A Nian, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

Hearing her calling him that, Xu Nian pursed his thin lips, hesitated for a while, and was about to say a few words warmly, but he didn't know that someone else's voice was urging him, so Xu Nian stopped, Said: "Okay, go get busy, I should eat too."

"I'll call you later." Gu Rong said.

Xu Nian responded, and then the phone was hung up hastily.

Bajin raised her head to look at her, staring eagerly at the meat on the table, she was funny, she brought out the food, moved everything to the dining table, and then brought over the food prepared for the silly dog, one person, one dog Eating the meal in silence.

Halfway through the meal, the pastry shop delivered mooncakes to the door. There were two mooncakes, one for Xu Nian and one specially made for Bajin. After eating, Xu Nian smashed the mooncakes to feed Bajin.

In the afternoon, take a nap, read and study, bathe and brush Bajin, and then go out for a couple of laps. The life of a person is boring, so I just make do with it.

When I was alone before, I felt okay, and I didn’t feel irritable and difficult, but once I got used to the existence of another person, I felt extremely uncomfortable, I felt weak all over, everything was wrong, everything seemed to be missing something .Xu Nian walked all the way and looked at his phone from time to time, Gu Rong said to call later, but there was no movement, someone in the class was giving out red envelopes, and Tang Min, one of the class guides, happily sent a few big ones in a row, flipping through Moments, Tang Minzhi posted a picture of the diamond ring last night, commenting on the congratulations.

This is about to get married, and the partner should be Miss Wan.

Speaking of which, Xu Nian hasn't seen these people for a long time. Sister Wan, Ning Zhouyi, and even Ji Ya haven't seen each other since the end of summer work. Everyone is busy with their own affairs, unlike the student party.

The busy fast-paced life is like the second hand of a wall clock, turning and turning without stopping.

A bunch of neighbors gathered at the south alley, everyone was chatting with great enthusiasm and loud voices, and they were talking about the relocation of the food street. On the street adjacent to Kuanbei Lane, the residents of Kuanbei Lane are more happy, looking forward to making a small fortune along with it.

The economic development can only be achieved through policies from above, and everyone hopes that Kuanbeixiang will get better and better.

When passing by the store, Ba Jin ran to the door of the store as usual, squatting there and not leaving.

The store owner picked up the clip as usual, and said with a smile, "Ah Nian, come out for a walk?"

Xu Nian nodded.

The store owner looked at Bajin, teased it twice, and asked, "Do you want one?"

"Okay," Xu Nian took out five yuan and handed it over, "Thank you boss."

The store owner accepted the money with a smile, and said politely, "I should thank you."

After speaking, he handed her a string of meat sausages, and Ba Jin watched excitedly with his tongue out, his eyes were so greedy.Xu Nian led it to go out, but before he turned around, he heard the store owner gossipingly ask: "Which relative is that from your family?"

Xu Nian paused, fell silent for a moment, and said coldly, "People from my hometown are distant relatives."

"Oh, that."

Xu Nian didn't stay for long, and walked far away with Bajin, and then gave the little guy some sausages when he got home. The day passed like this, just like a pool of water without any ripples.

She had been waiting for Gu Rong to make a call, but she didn't answer the call. At around eight o'clock, Xu's mother came to deliver mooncakes, and this time she was alone.

Xu Nian let her sit in the room for about ten minutes, then gave her a few months of cakes in return, and sent her to the bus. Talk more, just before the bus comes, ask in a low voice: "Have you visited your father?"

Her face was haggard, her mouth was pale, and she seemed to be having a hard time.

Xu Nian could roughly guess what she was busy with, it was nothing more than Qin Chengyi's medical treatment, Xu Chengliang's running around there, and taking care of the old and young of Qin's family. , with no waves in his heart, he replied coldly: "I have been there before."

Xu's mother moved her lips, her expression was in a daze for a moment, she looked at Xu Nian, her eyes were full of unspeakable sadness, maybe she wanted to persuade her, but before she could speak, the bus came, the last bus was at [-] o'clock, she had to get on, and waited The crowd in the car swarmed into the car, she turned her head to look at Xu Nian, and said, "Then I'm leaving—"

Xu Nian stayed where he was, without saying a word.

The car stopped for less than a minute, then drove away slowly into the black night.

The moon on the fifteenth day was big and round, as bright and white as a white jade plate, and the scorching moonlight fell to the ground, and the shadows of the trees danced in the alley. Xu Nian almost lost his footing, he was funny and angry, this silly dog ​​didn't know how much strength he had.

After entering the house, I fed Bajin fruit, and one person and one dog watched dramas on the sofa. At about ten o'clock, I went upstairs to wash and rest.

When brushing his teeth, Bajin was very uncooperative, and his halazi bleed all over the floor. It was quite aggrieved, making it look like Xu Nian was abusing it, whining softly, with a wrinkled face, very pitiful.Xu Nian was originally in a bad mood, but he was amused by it.

"Dog thing—" she cursed, rubbing the little guy's head.

Bajin jumped up suddenly, and put two paws on her body at once. The paws were full of water. Before Xu Nian could react, he was thrown by the silly dog ​​a few paws, and the light gray pajamas were wet. dog paw prints.

Xu Niansheng was afraid that the silly dog's snarl would be thrown on him, so he restrained it again and again, shouting: "Don't move, don't move, be good!"

Ba Jin was really obedient, but he still didn't cooperate very much.

After brushing her teeth, tidy it up, send it back to the small room, Xu Nian cleans up again, it's already 10:30, Gu Rong may be really busy, she washed up quickly, and finally lay on the bed to wait for the news.

Time passed little by little.

It was cool tonight, the night wind blew from time to time, it was very comfortable, Xu Nian turned to face outside, looked at the night for a while, and then looked at his phone.

Eleven o'clock.

11: 30.

……

10 minutes to midnight.There was still no movement on the phone interface, and no one was active in the class, and everything was quiet.

Xu Nian sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, and woke up for a while. It will be twelve o'clock soon, and it will be almost six o'clock in France. Maybe Gu Rong will be done soon.She leaned against the head of the bed, casually flipped through her phone, and checked all the dating apps. Her hair was messy, and two strands hung down her shoulders against her fair neck.

The night before going abroad, Gu Rong took her to do it twice. There were still some slight marks on her chest and collarbone, which were almost dissipated. Because the pajamas were wet, the loose open cotton T she was wearing now T-shirt, the neckline is slightly larger, and if the body is slightly tilted, most of the round and round shoulders will be exposed.

The bedside lamp was soft and white, and when it hit her, she felt a little hot, so she pushed aside the quilt and curled up on one side of the bed, with her two long legs bent in front of her, holding her mobile phone and waiting quietly.

The old-fashioned wall clock rotates one second at a time. When the hour, minute and second hands coincide, the morning officially arrives, but the mobile phone screen is still black.

Feeling sleepy, Xu Nian was a little tired. She went downstairs to get water with her mobile phone. She couldn't help but want to call Gu Rong, but she was afraid of disturbing the other party. She stared at the phone screen for half a minute, and finally decided to make a try. Try, hang up if you are really busy.

It would only be like this when facing Gu Rong. If it was someone else, they would have called him long ago, so how could they be entangled in whether they are busy or not?

Both parties in love are crossing the river by feeling the stones, for fear of making mistakes, and thinking too much.

She took a sip of cold water, put down her glass, swiped open the screen to find the string of numbers, and was about to press it, as if she had a heartbeat, when the other party called at this moment, she was stunned, she collected her mind, and then picked up.

Xu Nian's tone was calm and calm: "Are you done?"

The other side hummed: "I just came out, I'm in the car, are you asleep?"

She immediately replied: "No, I can't sleep, and I'm still watching a drama."

Gu Rong looked at his watch, he knew clearly, he knew that he should be waiting instead of watching a drama, so he didn't poke it, and asked, "How's the weather in G City today?"

Xu Nian said: "It's pretty cool, the temperature has dropped a lot, today it's only in the [-]s."

"It's lower here, more than ten degrees," Gu Rong said, looking at the quiet street outside the car window, the buildings of different styles, the faint lights, and the gray sky, these are very different from G City, she looked away , continued, "You need to wear long clothes, otherwise it will be very cold."

Xu Nian involuntarily hooked the corners of his lips, sat on the bed, looked at the sky outside the window, and said softly, "Then remember to wear more clothes and pay attention to the weather."

Gu Rong on the other end of the phone only hummed softly.

There were four people sitting in the nanny car, two tall blond Frenchmen, Yan Xu, the agent, and two Chinese men in their 30s. Yan Xu secretly glanced at Gu Rong, and he could probably guess Who to call, when he was busy this afternoon, Gu Rong was looking for his mobile phone several times, but unfortunately time was tight, there was no time to make a call, and the manager stopped him.

Gu Rong knew that he was looking at her, but ignored him, and whispered into the phone: "I will tell you later, you will come to Paris on the 25th."

Xu Nian lifted the quilt and went in, leaning against the head of the bed: "Well, it's past seven o'clock in the evening local time, so I should leave after watching the show."

This is something that Gu Rong decided after the plan was finalized. She and the three members of the Shen family will go. It is necessary to go at such an important moment. She has not seen her girlfriend's catwalk show. This is the first time, and it may be is the last time.

An air ticket from City G to Paris costs four to five thousand, and the round trip costs eight to nine thousand. Shen Wan wanted to pay her, but she refused. She bought it with part-time salary and savings. This trip is of great significance, and she doesn't want to rely too much on it Many external forces.

"Did you get the visa?"

"It's done early, don't worry."

"I'll pick you up when we get there."

Xu Nian said: "We can find it, you are busy with your work, don't come, I will come to you directly when the time comes."

26 The show will start at eight o'clock in the evening, and there must be complicated things to do the night before.

Gu Rong didn't say anything, so he should have acquiesced.

Xu Nian chatted with her for a while about the family life, it was nothing more than what she had done in the past two days, studying, signing up for competitions... and talking about moon cakes, eight catties, but she didn't talk about Xu's mother's visit. I don't want to get too involved with those people, so I won't talk about it.

Although the two chatted for a while and stopped for a while, but after going on like this for half an hour, it disappeared in a flash. When Gu Rong arrived at the hotel, the manager came over to explain something.

Here Xu Nian probably heard part of the conversation, and knew that it was time to hang up the phone. Going abroad was hard work, busy with work, and jet lagged. When Gu Rong spoke again, she made an excuse to go to bed and was ready to hang up.

Gu Rong responded a few words and said, "Good night then."

She said, "Good night..."

Turning off the lights with a slap, the room was plunged into darkness. She squeezed the phone tightly, and before the phone hung up, she added: "Auntie——"

Gu Rong was puzzled: "Huh?"

Xu Nian: "I miss you very much."

On the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, there was light rain, the whole city of G was shrouded in gray fog, the sky was misty, and it rained from morning to night. Xu Nian didn't go anywhere that day, and stayed at home with Ba Jin, except eating and reading. It went on until almost dark.

She was sitting on the sofa peeling apples for Bajin to eat. Comrade Bajin unconsciously rested his head on her lap, wagging his tail. It was shedding hair. Xu Nian was wearing black cropped trousers. It is light golden dog fur.

Being a dog who is served by someone is really refreshing, Ba Jin has changed a lot, and he has lost many of the problems of being a stray dog, but he is still a little timid sometimes.After eating half of the apple, Shen Wan sent a message asking what cosmetics Xu Nian wanted.

The cosmetics in Thailand are pretty good, and this girl started shopping like crazy as soon as she got there, don't care if it's good or not, it's all done anyway, Xu Nian picked two lipsticks at random, and Shen Wan sent her some travel photos.

Xu Nian cleaned up the table, and when he picked up the phone again, he found that the other party had sent him a series of numbers, and then said: My grandma asked about you today, and originally wanted to ask you to come over for dinner, but suddenly something happened at home. are you free tomorrow?

That string of numbers should be a phone number.Xu Nian thought about it for a while, and was about to reply, when the other party sent another message: Anyway, I have nothing to do, you can go over and sit, it just so happens that I may have to postpone my return for two days, and then you just hand over the eight catties to her, I have already told her I said it.

The phone number is Gu's mother's contact information.

Wanwan: It's her number. You can contact her directly when you get there tomorrow. I'm a little busy here, so let's not chat.

After posting, there was really no movement.

Xu Nian was stunned for a moment, this girl didn't even leave room for rejection, meaning that she must go over and give Chuang Chuang a chance to get along. Shen Wan didn't know that her grandmother knew about the relationship between Xu Nian and Gu Rong. , I just broke my heart.

It was obviously awkward before, but it was arranged for these two days, as if Xu Nian would not be able to handle these things.Xu Nian looked at the string of numbers, pondered for a moment, and finally added them to the address book.

The light rain stopped in the middle of the night, and the next morning it was gray and gray. It rained at around nine o'clock. Xu Nian tried to call Gu's mother, but the first call was answered. The two of them hardly chatted on the phone. Gu's mother cut straight to the point and asked her to go over to have lunch, and asked her to bring Bajin with her.

The elder brother of the Gu family is not here, so there are only two old men and mothers at home. Old man Gu still doesn't know about those things, and his attitude towards Xu Nian is average. In comparison, mother Gu seems a little more enthusiastic, but it's still not very good.

Gu's mother is quite nice to Ba Jin, and Ba Jin is also very affectionate to her. It seems that she gets along a lot in the Shen family.When Gu's mother was teasing the dog, Xu Nian could only wait on the sidelines. At night, the Gu family's driver took them back to Kuanbei Lane.

After the first meal, there will be a second meal soon. The next day, I still eat at the Gu family. This time I met the elder brother of the Gu family and Shen Wan’s cousins. Xu Nian A foreign surname is simply embarrassing.

That night Xu Nian left Ba Jin at Gu's house, and left the little one in the care of Gu's mother. When she left, she specially said, "I'll come and see it when I'm free, please."

Gu's mother only nodded, her aloofness remained the same.

After the three-day long vacation, there are many courses. All the classes on Thursday and Friday were transferred to Sunday to make up for it, and no one was missed from morning to night.

Shen Wan arrived at school on Monday night, just in time for the opening meeting.Tang Minzhi made a special trip to inform the school of the recent plans for the students, and counted the list of students in the class who intend to study in graduate school.

Xu Nian and Shen Wan sat in the first row, saw the diamond ring on her hand, and Shen Wan asked softly, "Is a good thing coming for Teacher Tang?"

"Didn't you read her circle of friends, it should be." Xu Nian said in a low voice.

Shen Wan looked at Tang Minzhi, leaned closer, and said, "She and Aunt Wan broke up last month, did you know that they broke up suddenly, and I heard that Aunt Wan came to school to block her several times, but there was no sound. "

Xu Nian was surprised, he had never heard of these things at all. In his memory, Tang Minzhi and Sister Wan were very good, they were like glue, and they were divided. Tang Minzhi's diamond ring was given by Sister Wan's request or...

She was the last to know about this matter. Gu Rong and the others knew about it a long time ago. It was only after calling Xu Nian at night that they found out why.

Tang Minzhi wanted to get married, after all, he was almost forty, but Sister Wan didn't want to, the two had a disagreement on this matter, Sister Wan was impulsive and hot-headed, she said that she would never have such a plan within three years .Just such a incident became the fuse between the two. Seeing that Sister Wan really had no intention of getting married, Tang Minzhi proposed to break up without looking back. Sister Wan was stubborn, thinking it was just a small quarrel, In a hurry, he started talking nonsense, but only found out a few days ago that Tang Minzhi was getting married.

When people reach a certain age, they tend to be more rational than impulsive when dealing with their feelings. Tang Minzhi's decision, or Wanjie's thoughts, are understandable to anyone, and they are all right. Everyone has different ideas and cannot be forced.

Age difference, concepts... It is inevitable to make people sigh and sigh, if it is not because of these, the relationship between Sister Wan and Tang Minzhi can be regarded as a model, two people who are obviously so good, but finally separated because of these things.

In fact, Xu Nian and Gu Rong will also face this problem in the future. After Xu Nian finishes his graduate studies, he will be 25, and after two or three years of struggle, Gu Rong will be 33 by then. No one knows what will happen by then. .

Xu Nian pondered for a while, then walked to the window sill, receiving the evening wind, and asked, "When do you plan to get married?"

Gu Rong on the other end of the phone was startled, there were other people around, so it was not convenient to say these things, "Why would you ask this?"

Xu Nian thought for a while, and said seriously: "It's convenient to count the time to marry you."

Gu Rong said: "You are only 20 years old."

"Soon to be 21."

"I'm still studying at 21." Gu Rong was obviously a little helpless. A certain person usually keeps silent and has a typical dull temper, but today he would talk about these things, get married, and it's been a long time. She didn't think so far, so she paused After a pause, he continued, "After studying the graduate school first, we will not consider these things now."

Xu Nian turned around and leaned against the window sill. The light from the headlights in the room was a bit dazzling. She squinted, raised her white and slender neck, and asked word by word: "What about after graduation?"

The intentionally low voice on the phone made Gu Rong slightly stunned, and forgot to move for a while, Yan Xu, who was walking with her, thought something was wrong, and gave a concerned wink, she recovered, indicating that it was okay.

It was still dark in Paris at this time, and there were few pedestrians on the streets, which were empty and quiet, and I could only hear the other side continue to say in a low voice: "Then wait until after the graduate school, okay?"
