lightly cooked

Xu Shuyuan didn't make it to the end that night, so he spent the night in the hotel.Fu Jia didn't even dare to close her eyelids, she rubbed against him, and waited for dawn with her eyes open.

Suffering at night, Fu Jia didn't know if the people around her were asleep or not.After a while, he stood up and took a look to make sure that Xu Shuyuan hadn't left quietly, his mind was in a mess.

Xu Shuyuan got up before dawn.

Hearing the sound of running water in the bathroom, Fu Jia also sat up from the bed, rubbed her face to wake herself up.The T-shirt on his body was wrinkled and inappropriate, but he didn't bring a change of clothes, so he could only make do with the wrinkled ones.

Xu Shuyuan came out with his mobile phone to leave, he hurriedly got off the bed and put on his shoes: "I will go wherever you go."

"I'm going to send grandma off for the last time, and you want to go too?"

Being asked such a rhetorical question, Fu Jia hesitated again.Yes, in what capacity did I go there?He went out with Xu Shuyuan and walked on the street at dawn. Only sanitation workers were sweeping the entire road, and the air was quiet and cool.

"Did you buy a return ticket?"

Xu Shuyuan turned his head sideways.Fu Jia was wearing a sportswear jacket with the zipper pulled up to the top, his chin tucked in, his delicate eyes were inlaid on his delicate cheeks, his eyes were sometimes innocent and sometimes cunning.

"Not yet." Waking up too early, Fu Jia's expression was a little dull, "Don't worry."

He intends to stay a few days longer.

Xu Shuyuan took out his phone and swiped it a few times before handing it to him: "Fill in your ID number."

"Ok?"

It is the page for booking train tickets.

"The earliest one is at twelve o'clock at noon, and you can walk around in the morning."

First class carriage.

Back to the page, it shows that there is still a second class.It turns out that driving yourself away requires such a big investment?Fu Jia smiled bitterly: "There's no need to be so wasteful, I'll just take the second-class seat."

"I won't see you off at noon, be careful on your own way, and tell me when you get home."

"What about you, when are you going back to Linjiang?"

After waiting for a long time, Xu Shuyuan still refused to make a promise.Fu Jia panicked, and there was no good way to force him to speak, so he had no choice but to pack his bag tightly and keep silent.

Xu Shuyuan took a taxi at the fork in the road, and Fu Jia stayed where he was.A car approached from far away, its headlights flashed twice in the early morning mist, Xu Shuyuan raised his hand as a signal.

"I go first."

"I'll accompany you there." Fu Jia stubbornly got into the car and was not driven out.

The two sat in the back row and remained silent.

Probably because he was afraid of getting sleepy, the driver turned on the traffic radio and lowered the windows on all sides, so that the morning breeze that had not yet heated up blew on his face to wake him up.

"Stop at xx Square."

The driver turned around to confirm with Xu Shuyuan: "East Plaza or West Plaza?"

"Which side sells breakfast?"

"Oh, that's the West Square." The other party suddenly said, "You haven't had breakfast yet."

Xu Shu should have been looking out the window, but the sight behind him couldn't be ignored.Fu Jia stared at him, looked at him, as if afraid that he would turn into a kite and fly away.

When he got to the square, he got off the car and bought buns and soy milk, but Fu Jia took it but refused to eat it, his shoulders slumped slightly.

"Eat quickly, it will be cold later."

"I'm not hungry." He shook his head, covered his hands with soy milk, "Where can I go later? I don't know the place here, and you are the only friend."

Xu Shuyuan introduced a few places casually, seeing that he was in a trance, he didn't know if he listened.

"Call me if you need anything."

Fu Jia lowered her head and was silent for a while before she asked for something: "Lend me your bus card here, and return it to you another day."

"What is it for?"

"Take the bus." He said in a warm voice, "otherwise what else can I do."

People who even dislike taking a taxi will still take the bus now?Xu Shuyuan looked back at him with a suspicious expression.Fu Jia didn't intend to hide it anymore: "I haven't driven a car for a long time, and I take the subway and bus to work recently, you just don't know."

Xu Shuyuan replied irresolutely: "It turns out that you have fallen in love with experiencing life recently."

Fu Jia's eyes were a little gloomy, and he raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "The main reason is that I don't have money. My parents confiscated my supplementary card, and now I have to live on my salary, so I can save as much as I can. In fact, taking the subway and bus is also quite good. Well, contribute to reducing carbon emissions, and exercise balance by the way.”

This joke is really not funny, no wonder Shuhara doesn't laugh.

He asked, "What's going on with your parents?"

Fu Jia shrugged, pretending to be relaxed and said: "They always make me do things I don't like, so I have no choice but to resist desperately. Speaking of it... I have to thank you, it's you who made me understand a truth."

Xu Shuyuan didn't answer, so Fu Jia had no choice but to continue talking on his own: "You let me understand that losing an important thing is very painful, but the opposite of pain is courage, and the courage to go back and fight for it."

The driver had been listening in front, twisted his neck, glanced at them both, and laughed.

"Sure, young man, it's a bit of a big realization. I wasn't as transparent as you when I was young."

Xu Shuyuan turned his head away, but Fu Jia knew he understood.When the car stopped at a red light, Fu Jia looked at the outline of Xu Shuyuan's face on the car window, watched him blend into the morning light outside the window, and felt that the barrier between them was being eliminated little by little, and the dawn was ahead.

On the way, Xu Jing called and hung up within 2 minutes.Fu Jia asked, "What did Miss Jing say?"

Xu Shuyuan said softly, "Let me settle you down, and don't let you be wronged."

Fu Jia's face became hot, and she said, "There's nothing to be wronged about. Tell Sister Jing that I can endure hardship the most."

After walking for about ten minutes, the scenery became thinner and thinner, so Xu Shuyuan got off the car first.

"There is a mountain road ahead, you can go back." He also asked the driver to go back the same way, and dialed as usual.The driver was happy to pick up the job for nothing, but Fu Jia was full of worries, because he didn't know what would happen after this separation.

After getting off the car, Xu Shuyuan leaned over: "Do you have enough money?"

Fu Jia first said it was enough, but then he said it wasn't enough, so Xu Shuyuan gave him five hundred cash.After parting, Fu Jia stared at the five brand-new banknotes in a daze, and was so preoccupied that the driver would glance at him from the rearview mirror from time to time.

It was only when I got on the high-speed rail that I realized that it was still a first-class seat.

"Actually, second-class seats are fine, I'm really not that delicate." Fu Jia texted Xu Shuyuan.

Xu Shuyuan didn't return until around three o'clock in the afternoon: "I hope so."

Really.

Fu Jia hugged the phone in his arms and squinted for a while, then opened his eyes and he was almost at Linjiang.The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and there were no loud noises in the carriage. Everything was much more comfortable than the previous journey.

He thought for a while and called his father: "Dad, do you have time these two days? I want to talk to you."

Fu Weimin was probably in a meeting, so he casually said, "If you want money, first go to your mother."

"It's not asking for money, but I really want to talk to you about something. Let's see if you are free someday. May I go home?"

"Then the day after tomorrow." The phone hung up impatiently.

Fu Jia put away the phone and let out a long sigh of relief, mentally typed the draft several times, and only after returning to the rental office did she feel more confident.

For three days in a row, he was always in a daze during working hours, either looking at the mailbox or looking at a certain avatar.Pei Xiaoou said he was insane, but he said no: "I'm just worried that Xu Shuyuan is still feeling bad."

"Senior brother is not so fragile." Xiaoou smiled, "He is a strong-willed person. At the time when there were so many people pointing fingers at school, he didn't care at all, so what to do. You should learn Learn from his calmness."

Although these words were unintentional, they more or less hurt Fu Jia.He changed the subject in a blunt voice: "I don't know when Shuyuan will come back."

In fact, he sent a message to ask this question, but Xu Shuyuan didn't give a clear answer, he only said it for a while.

"I guess he can't get over the hurdle in his heart."

Fu Jia was very dull, and looked at Xiaoou stupidly: "Which way?"

"You're stupid, of course you broke up with him." Xiaoou's expression was extremely helpless, and he had to act as an emotional expert, "No matter how strong a person is, he will be frustrated if he is abandoned, not to mention that he has been being rejected since childhood. People give up, think about it, am I right?"

The scars of life experience and emotional setbacks are stacked together, and it will take a long time for anyone to recover.Fu Jia was hit by her words, and spent another sleepless night that night.

Back home on the third day, Fu's mother was overjoyed: "Why don't you tell me in advance when you come back, there is nothing prepared at home."

"I'm not a guest, so what else are you preparing?" Fu Jia asked, "Dad, he will come back for dinner tonight, right? We agreed to talk."

He went to change clothes, and Fu's mother followed behind: "What are you talking about?"

"my business."

"What can you do?" Fu's mother knew something was wrong, but she still insisted, "Finally decided to move back?"

Fu Jia opened the door to shut her mother out, and shouted through the door: "I won't come back, I'm going to find Xu Shuyuan."

Fu's mother said loudly: "What do you mean, what are you looking for, is it possible that you still want to elope?"

Fu Jia smiled wryly.

After changing his clothes, he went to open the door and asked half-jokingly, "What are you going to do if I really elope, Mom?"

"I'll break your leg!" Fu's mother slapped him on the arm fiercely, eyes widening, he smiled and ouched: "You're kidding, I'm not willing to leave my dearest mother."

"You'll be glib." Mother Fu breathed a sigh of relief, "See where you dare to go."

He retreated into advance: "It's impossible to elope, but I think you all try to accept him. You can't object to such a small request."

"I accept him? It's a good idea!" Fu's mother is not stupid, and the vigor of her youth has returned, "I have a good son who was kidnapped by him, and the family won't return, and the parents don't care..."

Although this reaction was not as intense as before, Fu Jia decided to take it easy.It was dark, and when Fu Weimin came home, it was rare for the family of three to have a meal together.

"I heard from your mother that you went to another place?" Fu Weimin picked up the soup and glanced at him.

"Yeah." He looked normal, "Shuyuan's grandma passed away, I went to give him a favor, and I stopped by to see him."

"Do you still have contact with that Xu?"

"Have."

Dang's father's face sank: "Aren't you afraid that I will target you two?"

Fu Jia lowered his head and drank the soup: "Target it, he's going to resign anyway."

Fu Weimin frowned: "It sounds like you're still holding grudges?"

"I didn't say that, Dad, don't misinterpret my meaning, I don't want to quarrel with you."

"Hmph, I think you are eager to fall out with your family, so go with that kid."

"Parents are not traveling far."

Fu Weimin's face just relaxed for a second, Fu Jia put down the bowl and continued: "But if you really force me, then I will go with him. The big deal is to find a place to beg for food, and come back to honor the elders when you get the money."

"You—!" Fu Weimin slammed down the bowl, turned his head to vent his anger on his wife, "You son really doesn't know who to follow!"

Because she had been vaccinated in advance, Fu's mother's reaction was not bad. She sneered and said, "Of course your son is up to you. I think you two have a good understanding of each other. Keep arguing, and I'll take care of it." Referee, let's see if Lao Tzu is better or son is better."

Fu Jia didn't hold back for a moment, and laughed while holding the bowl.Fu Weimin was full of anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, his face was turning green with anger, but he didn't say any harsh words to his son.

Lying on his bed at night, he looked through the chat records with Xu Shuyuan, and the more he looked at it, the more he missed it.

I don't know what Xu Shuyuan is doing, and whether he is in a better mood.

After thinking about it, I edited a paragraph and sent it:

"I heard from an online class teacher today that the longest period for a project to go to market is four years. If there is no result after four years, it is best to choose to give up. But I don't think that is the case. I am afraid of persistence.

I checked, and there are more than one companies whose tutoring period exceeds four years, and some of them failed several times in the middle, but the results are all good.As long as it can bear fruit, the tortuous process in the middle is not important at all, are you right? "

The bedroom was silent.

In the middle of the night, Xu Shuyuan replied with four words: "Which teacher."

"That's not the point." Fu Jia sat up, holding the phone restlessly, "You haven't slept yet."

The above is typing for a few seconds.

"Woke up by a child."

He was so startled that he almost fell off the bed, clutching his phone, his heart skipped a beat: "Where is the kid from?"

"My niece."

Great joy followed by great loss, Fu Jia fell on the pillow, powerless for a while.

Xu Shuyuan was not around during this time.He's on vacation, recovering, recuperating.Although separated by such a long distance, Fu Jia felt that he was still everywhere, and could still easily tug at his heartstrings.
