three feet away

The concert was over, Xu Nuo sat in his seat without moving, one reason was to wait for the people behind to disperse before leaving, and one reason Yan Ruyi didn't get up, she was still holding her hand, Xu Nuo was unwilling and reluctant to let go A touch of tenderness.

After 3 minutes, Zhang Qing got up from his seat and reminded Xu Nuo: "Let's go, everyone is almost gone. Let's go to the backstage to find Xiao Qingming. This girl is too boring. Let's just forget about not contacting us for so long. This music Maybe if it wasn't for the two of us coming here by chance, I don't know how powerful she is now. Xiao Huang's show is about to end, and we will pick her up from work with Qingming in a while, and let's have supper?"

Xu Nuo stood up with her, with her right hand hanging by her side, Yan Ruyi held a short section of her fingertips, and followed her movements slightly looking up at the two of them.

"I...I won't go." Xu Nuo smiled, Zhou Qingming didn't necessarily want to see her, besides, Yan Ruyi was by her side, she just said that she must have a good chat with herself, the temperature of the corners of her lips hadn't faded yet , at this time, how could he leave her for supper?

The expression became a little unnatural, Xu Nuo glanced at Yan Ruyi from the corner of her eye, Yan Ruyi's face was illuminated by the light, she saw her tender eyes full of affectionate autumn water, which made her heart itch uncontrollably. Moved by it: "I still have something to do."

Zhang Qing thought she was in a hurry to go home and work, and spread his hands at her with an exaggerated expression: "There is still something to do? Isn't it promise, do you want to be determined to be a desperate Sanniang? I ask you to come out ten times a day, and I know the work. , you are a human, not a machine, do you know that?"

Zhang Qing's words made Xu Nuo a little embarrassed, she turned her head slightly embarrassed to face Yan Ruyi, bent her lips, and explained helplessly: "No, it's not work, I have other things."

"What's that?" Xu Nuo turned her back to Zhang Qing's smile, looking a little helpless from Zhang Qing's point of view, then she suddenly remembered something, and patted her thigh: "Hi, are you Are you afraid of seeing Xiao Qingming? Oh, don’t worry, you two have broken up for four or five years. In this society, most people will have a new love after four or five months of separation. Who cares about old love? Remember? You haven't seen each other for four or five years, maybe Xiao Qingming already has someone to talk about marriage, and it's not just you. If you want me to tell you, just be generous and come with me Let's find her backstage. See you old friends, it's nothing."

Zhang Qing's words made Xu Nuo a little impatient. She clearly felt that Yan Ruyi's hand holding her fingertips trembled when Zhang Qing was speaking. She didn't know what she thought of Zhang Qing's words.

Turning his head, Xu Nuo smiled at Yan Ruyi, bent slightly and pulled her up, then pointed at Yan Ruyi sideways with Zhang Qing's blank expression and explained to her: "I really have something to do, little Z, you Look at her, do you know her?"

"She is..." Zhang Qing looked at Xu Nuo, then at Yan Ruyi, frowned and thought about it for a long time but didn't remember who Yan Ruyi was: "Someone I know?"

Seeing her seriously troubled expression, Xu Nuo nodded amusedly, then shook his head: "It's normal that you don't remember."

Zhang Qing was made even more confused by these words. He lowered his head, and just as his gaze shifted to the hands held by the two, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, pointing at Yan Ruyi's excited words, he couldn't speak smoothly:

"You you you...you are her high school teacher!!! The one who taught biology?! What's your name, oh, Yan Ruyi!! Is it you?!"

Yan Ruyi was amused by her expression and stammering words, smiled and nodded to her, then turned to look at Xu Nuo, then continued to look back at Zhang Qing and said: "Yes, hello, I am her creature Teacher, I am Yan Ruyi."

"Wow, wow, wow!" Zhang Qing seemed to have heard the news that the moon was about to hit the earth, and his expression was extremely disbelieving what he heard and saw. With his hand, he laughed wildly at Xu Nuo: "Wow, promise, promise, you have really waited for it, wow, how many years has it been? God, open your eyes, I thought you were going to be so boring. For a lifetime!"

Xu Nuo looked helplessly at Zhang Qing's crazy appearance, wanted to laugh, but her eyes turned red. She has always been relatively indifferent and has few friends, but Zhang Qing has always wished her well.

"Well, Yan...enm..." After hesitating what to call, Zhang Qing said suddenly: "Mr. Yan, you won't leave, right? You can't leave again, really, the promises of those years are too..."

Xu Nuo saw that she was eager to pull Yan Ruyi to talk about the past and quickly stopped: "Okay, there is no need to talk about the past. Aren't you going to find Qingming? You go, I won't talk about it today." I'll go, when I have time, I..." In the middle of speaking, Xu Nuo glanced sideways at Yan Ruyi, looking at Yan Ruyi looking at himself with gentle eyes, with a smile on his face unconsciously, Xu Nuo was happy A little flustered: "I will take her to treat you to dinner when I have time."

Zhang Qing waved his hands, no longer entangled, pushed Xu Nuo out, and said without hesitation in a voice that anyone could hear: "Okay, no problem, go on a date, hehe. Teacher Yan, if you have nothing to do in the future, Xu Nuo will come out and meet with us Get together."

Yan Ruyi's ears were warmed by Zhang Qing's enthusiasm, and she was a little shy: "Okay, I will."

After Zhang Qing left, Xu Nuo dragged Yan Ruyi out of the almost empty concert hall.

The two held hands, neither of them spoke, Xu Nuo was so nervous that she didn't know what to say, she felt that all of this was unreal, Yan Ruyi stood beside her so quietly, she said she was not married, that little girl Hai'er is not her daughter either. She said that she has a boyfriend, but she broke up with that outstanding boyfriend. Any piece of news like this will take a certain amount of time for Xu Nuo to digest, but Yan Ruyi is already here , no matter what, she has to hold her hand. As for the others, she still has a lot of time to sort them out.

It was nearly eleven o'clock at night when the two walked to the door side by side.The cold frosty wind was blowing in front of her, Xu Nuo couldn't help shivering, she unconsciously pulled Yan Ruyi closer to her side, and put the hands holding her into the large pocket of her down jacket.

Yan Ruyi's hand shrank back slightly when she felt what Xu Nuo was going to do. She raised her head, glanced at Xu Nuo's side face with a natural expression, slowly raised the corners of her lips, and picked Xu Nuo's palm with her fingertips. Call her name: "Promise?"

"Huh?" Xu Nuo lowered her head and looked into Yan Ruyi's eyes. The light from the entrance of the cultural center fell on her eyes, like colorful stars twinkling.

Yan Ruyi looked at her and smiled, "It's nothing."

Xu Nuo frowned slightly, looked at Yan Ruyi for a while and thought, then Yan Ran, just about to ask her how to get back, when she heard a strange sentence from under the street lamp next to the exit:

"Ah, look at who this is? You just picked up money in the infield, right? The smiling face is blooming."

The two responded and looked in the direction of the speech at the same time.

Standing under the street lamp were four beautiful women with different dresses and postures but each with their own style and charm. The one who was speaking was smiling and looking at Xu Nuo and Yan Ruyi with an ambiguous expression. Xu Nuo recognized her at a glance as a few hours ago The coquettish woman who said she was weak on the traffic jam was originally sitting next to her, but when she woke up she was replaced by Yan Ruyi. The woman standing next to "Maggie Cheung" promises to look familiar, always I think I have seen her somewhere, but I can't match her with someone I know for a while, and the other two women who are slightly separated from "Maggie Cheung" are Xu Nuo, who has never seen her before. One of them is wearing a The glasses looked very intellectual. The woman next to her was holding a little girl about two or three years old. The child didn't seem very happy, and she felt that she was clamoring to go into her arms.

Seeing such a scene, Xu Nuo turned around and asked Yan Ruyi, "Are they your friends?"

"Yeah." Yan Ru nodded, moved the hand that was still in the pocket of Xu Nuo's coat, and pulled her forward: "Let's go, say hello."

As soon as the two of them walked in front of a group of people, "Maggie Cheung" raised his eyebrows and spoke again:

"Hey, Yan Da is really unusual for a busy person. It's fine to come only halfway through the concert. If you come so late, he can still pick up a little wife from the infield. Amazing!"

Xu Nuo will die as soon as she hears this, her ears are as hot as being scorched by fire, she has always studied and lived in a very simple environment, except for Zhang Qing who is talkative, how can other people talk like this person? It was late at night, but it was a public place, and there were a lot of passers-by in the cultural center. She just talked about picking up a daughter-in-law in such a big way, and a few young people who happened to pass by turned their heads to look at it. Excuse me.

Here, Xu Nuo has not recovered from the "Maggie Cheung" joke, but the familiar person standing next to her has already stepped forward, smiling and nodding at her: "Long time no see, Xu Nuo."

"??" When Xu Nuo heard this, question marks filled her head, she actually knew her name?Yan Ruyi mentioned herself to her?

"Hello." After replying politely, Xu Nuo turned his head and looked at Yan Ruyi with eyes that asked for help.

Yan Ruyi stood beside Xu Nuo from the beginning to the end, and she could clearly see the changing expression on her face with her loving eyes. She was indifferent to the calm and breezy performance when they first met, and promised with confidence and calmness when she was working. The little nervousness shown in front of her friend seemed very happy. Seeing Xu Nuo asking for help, she naturally squeezed her hand to signal her not to be nervous, then turned her head to look at "Maggie Cheung", and said lightly to her:

"My daughter-in-law is so easy to pick up. Why hasn't your little pianist who you've been chasing for so long been able to meet us yet?"

"Maggie Cheung" was almost choked to death by Yan Ruyi's words, pointing at Yan Ruyi with trembling fingers and excitedly asked the woman next to her who was teasing the child: "Lin Xi!! This woman learned from you, right? Ah?! She has learned the faults of protecting the calf to the fullest! Look at the way she protects the calf, does it look like you protect Li Su, a stinky bastard?! It's exactly like you!"

The woman named Lin Xi was coaxing the child who was hugged by the woman next to her to speak in a low voice. After hearing what "Maggie Cheung" said, she glanced sideways, and gave her a polite hook when her eyes swept over Xu Nuo. He hooked his lips to say hello, and then turned to "Maggie Cheung" and said casually: "My own family, don't protect her, are they facing you?"

When "Maggie Cheung" heard this, she wanted to vomit blood even more, and pulled the woman next to her to lean on her shoulder and wailed: "You are not careful in making friends! You are not careful in making friends! You wait, one day I will take me with you." My little darling is here to show you love! You will be sour!"

Seeing this scene, Xu Nuo wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to hold it back, but the woman wearing glasses couldn't hold back her laughter for a moment.

Xu Nuo instinctively turned his head to look at her, and seeing the woman who was smiling happily just a second ago suddenly covered her mouth and turned around squatting by the green belt on the side of the road, feeling sick.Seeing this, the woman named Lin Xi who was holding the child quickly bent down to pat her on the back, and asked her how she was doing softly.

Xu Nuo was a little anxious watching from the side, but found that the others seemed to get used to it and didn't respond to that person's vomiting.

Seeing her confusion, Yan Ru explained to her with a smile: "Her name is Li Su, she is pregnant, and the early pregnancy reaction is a bit serious."

"Oh? Oh." Xu Nuo nodded again and again, looking at the two big and one small squatting on the edge of the green belt, she always felt something strange, after thinking about it for a few seconds, she tilted her head excitedly as if she had discovered a new world Yan Ruyi whispered in his ear: "Yan Ruyi, are they a couple?"

Yan Ruyi laughed lightly: "Yes. Mu Li is their eldest daughter. In a few months, a new baby will become their family member."

"Wow..." Xu Nuo Ting's eyes lit up, excited, he looked enviously at the figures beside the green belt, and held onto Yan Ruyi's fingers for a long time, unwilling to let go.

"You don't remember her at all?" Yan Ruyi asked Xu Nuo as her eyes fell on the woman next to "Maggie Cheung".

"She is?" Xu Nuo turned his gaze to that person again, still feeling familiar, but still unable to remember.

The woman listened, and said with a smile: "Oh, it seems that that time, I really should have recorded skipping classes for you and your classmates, and let you go, so that you can't remember the teacher."

Xu Nuo frowned, trying to recall the memory of her being called, and suddenly remembered that the only time she was arrested during college was not because she skipped class, but because Zhang Qing skipped class and she took roll call. That time, Zhou Qingming pulled her I asked the substitute teacher for my hand, it was her!Yu Zan!

"Teacher Yu?!"

"I remembered?"

"Hmm..." Xu Nuo bowed his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry..."
