Obviously, the boy Cen Hanluo was referring to was himself, Jiang Nanhui could tell.After receiving the sealed watermelon from the boss, Jiang Nanhui helped Cen Hanluo carry it. His memory was vague, so he could only ask in shame: "What did I do then?"

"It's normal that you don't remember, and I don't intend to let you recall it now." Cen Hanluo said, "A rather kind gesture makes me feel very warm."

The street lights are on, and the green sandalwood trees in the old community are swaying with the wind in the warm yellow light.Walking home downstairs, Cen Hanluo exchanged the plastic bag, and asked, "Share you half of the watermelon?"

"I knew it." Jiang Nanhui smiled, "You said that just now because you didn't want me to pay for it."

"The boss just divided the remaining watermelon into two big pieces." Cen Hanluo held out one piece and gave it to Jiang Nanhui, "I'm going to reward you, thank you for helping me carry it back."

"Hey." Jiang Nanhui sighed after catching it, "I owe you more and more things."

"You owe it, you owe it." Cen Hanluo waved his hands and walked towards his apartment building, "The more you owe, the better, pay it back slowly."

When Cen Han fell into the corridor, Jiang Nanhui turned and walked to the opposite building, and returned home to put the watermelon in the refrigerator.After taking a shower, drying his hair, and turning on the air conditioner, Jiang Nanhui sat cross-legged on the bed with his laptop in his arms. He will go with Team Leader Liu to interview a remote sensing engineer tomorrow. He plans to organize the information first so that it can be used during the interview.

Once buried in his work, Jiang Nanhui was able to keep his ears shut until he completed the planned tasks.The new phone was quiet all night, and Jiang Nanhui was rarely quiet. He was about to take a look at Moments before going to sleep. After sliding the screen to unlock, the screen was a chat dialog box after becoming friends with Cen Hanluo.

Cen Hanluo's profile picture is that he is carrying a little girl on his back. The two look alike when they smile, but they are not very similar when looking closely at the facial features. Jiang Nanhui wonders if it is his own sister.Sure enough, most of the content of Cen Hanluo's circle of friends is about this girl, full of life photos, art photos, parents occasionally appearing on the scene, and the family atmosphere is harmonious and warm.

The coordinates are all in Melbourne, Jiang Nanhui continued to scroll down, and the page slid to the bottom. The earliest photo was published six years ago, located in Jingnan City, and it was a bottle of Master Kong green tea.When they met for the first time for dinner, Cen Hanluo also reminded him of this bottle of drink. Jiang Nanhui followed the clues and tried hard to recall, but the long-term memory was still covered by a layer of veil, making it difficult for him to see clearly.

Cen Hanluo was not able to go home with Jiang Nanhui every day, and often had to work overtime.When he was off work, he would first send a WeChat message to ask if Jiang Nanhui was at work.

If it is here, Cen Hanluo will take a short detour when he comes out of the subway, and the farther way home can pass by the Penn State TV Station.

On this day, Jiang Nanhui received a message from Cen Hanluo, waited for him in the office for a while, and met him at the door of the unit.Cen Hanluo doesn't need to wear a uniform to work, and his private clothes are different every day. Today's clothes are fashionable and playful, with a goose yellow short-sleeved hoodie paired with denim shorts, and high-top canvas shoes printed with red and purple patterns.

Jiang Nanhui walked over, said hello and said, "I thought it was a high school student from some school."

Cen Hanluo asked triumphantly, "Is my body particularly good-looking?"

How can someone praise himself so clearly, Jiang Nanhui said with a smile: "Well, it's pretty good-looking."

Cen Hanluo deliberately skipped a few bites from the lunch buffet in the company cafeteria, in order to save his stomach and go to the cold noodle shop with Jiang Nanhui that he passed by several times.The shop had a small front, and the house was overcrowded. Small tables and stools were placed outside the shop. Cen Han ordered two bowls of classic Liangpi and two servings of Roujiamo. When paying the money, he asked for AA with Jiang Nanhui.

Jiang Nanhui couldn't resist him, so after paying his own, he sat at the table outside the door with two pairs of chopsticks and waited for his meal.In the distance, there were noisy cars and people, and the shops in the nearby alleys were shouting loudly, and there was a breath of life everywhere. Cen Hanluo on the opposite side was looking at the sky with his head propped up. Jiang Nanhui looked at him, suddenly There is a wonderful sense of ease.

The high temperature was steaming the skin, and the meal was ready, Cen Hanluo took two mouthfuls of Liangpi, with beads of sweat hanging from the tip of his nose, and asked Jiang Nanhui, "How does it taste?"

Jiang Nanhui ate faster than Cen Hanluo, and he ate up a bowl of Liangpi in five or six bites.Sweating profusely as he gnawed on the Roujiamo, Jiang Nanhui said, "It's not bad."

Cen Hanluo asked: "Is it hot or not, do you want an iced drink?"

"I'll go buy it." After Jiang Nanhui finished speaking, he got up immediately, he had to seize the opportunity before Cen Hanluo would have to talk to him again, "What do you want to drink?"

Cen Hanluo replied: "Master Kang green tea."

After paying the money, Jiang Nanhui walked back to the table with two bottles of iced green tea in hand, and put one of the bottles by Cen Hanluo's hand, with a sudden pause.This action, this scene brought him a very strong sense of familiarity. Cen Hanluo raised his head to look at Jiang Nanhui, smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to unscrew the bottle cap, and drank half of the bottle freely.

"Let's go, let's go for a walk, there is a small supermarket in front." Cen Hanluo put the drink into a canvas bag, "Come with me to buy some instant noodles and quick-frozen dumplings."

The Life Supermarket is only a few steps away from the Liangpi shop, and there are a lot of people shopping, and the air inside is not good, so Cen Hanluo asked Jiang Nanhui to wait for him at the door.

Quickly selected two buckets of braised beef noodles and two bags of dumplings filled with pork and corn. After paying the bill, Cen Hanluo walked back to Jiang Nanhui with his shopping bags in his hands, and found that he was staring at the shopping mall across the road, wondering what he was looking at.

Cen Hanluo called out, "Nanhui."

Jiang Nanhui came back to his senses, with a dull expression on his face: "Huh? I bought it? So soon?"

Cen Hanluo said, "I'm afraid you've waited too long."

Jiang Nanhui raised his hand and pressed the bridge of his nose twice, looking a little tired: "It's fine."

Cen Hanluo looked at the opposite shopping mall again, searched for a moment, and found the reason for Jiang Nanhui's abnormal condition.A giant poster hangs in the window of a light luxury skin care store, and there are six human-shaped stands next to it. The popular rising star Faith group is their product spokesperson.

Looking at it from Jiang Nanhui's perspective, what happened to be seen was Shen Xike.Cen Hanluo understood, turned around, and took a few quick steps to catch up with Jiang Nanhui.

On the way home, Jiang Nanhui didn't speak any more, his expression was steady and normal, but he kept turning the cigarette pack in his hand.After entering the complex, and walking between the seventh and eighth buildings, Cen Hanluo called out to Jiang Nanhui and said, "The sun has set and it's not so hot anymore. Let's sit on the bench for a while."

Jiang Nanhui didn't refuse, and followed Cen Hanluo to sit down on the bench. Before he could sit still, he heard the other party say: "Now you are allowed to smoke a cigarette."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Nanhui lowered his head and sipped out the cigarette from the cigarette pack. Just as he lit it, Cen Hanluo said, "I smoked it now, and I can't smoke it again when I get home."

Jiang Nanhui didn't respond, Cen Hanluo raised his chin and looked at him from the corner of his eyes, with a smile on his face: "If you can't do it, remember that I won the bet before? You have to promise me a request."

"You can't smoke after you get home." Cen Han Luo pointed to the window of his house, "Ultraman will supervise you."

In a second, Jiang Nanhui couldn't help biting the cotton at the end of the cigarette, and replied after a long while, "Okay."

It was getting late, and there were many people walking and walking their dogs in the neighborhood. The snow-white Samoyed began to get excited when he met people again. When he saw Jiang Nanhui, he wanted to pounce on him, but the dog owner grabbed the rope.

A cigarette was half smoked, Jiang Nanhui pinched out the end of the cigarette and put it back into the cigarette pack.Cen Hanluo seemed to have been silent for a long time, Jiang Nanhui turned his face to look, and found that the other party was staring at a holly bush.

Jiang Nanhui asked suspiciously, "What are you looking at?"

Cen Hanluo whispered, "If I'm not mistaken, are there fireflies behind the holly bushes?"

Hearing this, Jiang Nanhui got up and approached, Cen Hanluo followed behind him, both eyes caught the light of fireflies.Squatting in front of the holly bushes, Cen Hanluo was very excited. Jiang Nanhui could see that he liked fireflies very much, so he thought about it and drank the remaining green tea in the drink bottle.

When the bottle was empty, Jiang Nanhui said softly, "How many can you catch?"

Cen Hanluo lowered his volume: "You are so kind to me."

Jiang Nanhui shrugged, and was about to make a move when Cen Hanluo grabbed his arm and heard him say, "I don't want it."

Jiang Nanhui was surprised: "Don't you like it?"

"Fireflies are free." Cen Hanluo hugged his knees, quietly admiring the faint light on the fireflies, "Don't trap them."

Jiang Nanhui nodded in agreement, the two waited for a few seconds, and Cen Hanluo said again: "Nanhui, you are free too."

Jiang Nanhui was slightly taken aback.

"There is light on your body, go and warm those who really care about you and love you." Cen Hanluo watched the dancing fireflies, "The past has become the past, in fact, sometimes it is not the things themselves that trap us, or It’s someone special, it’s us.”

"Don't be trapped by yourself." Cen Hanluo looked at Jiang Nanhui, bent his eyes and smiled, "Go forward boldly, look forward, be brave."
