Inhabit you as a forest

A few days after Sheng Qi left, it snowed again on the Yujiang River.

Wen Lian spends the weekend by himself, and wants to stay at home, read and write as usual, because it is too noisy outside.But thinking that when Sheng Qi was with her, they would go shopping and eat, she changed her mind and planned to go out for a walk.

If Sheng Qi is not here, she will completely change back to her previous appearance.

After Sheng Qi attended the funeral, he separated from Xu Tongtong. One went back to school and the other started traveling.

Wen Lian integrated the attractions and hotels she had visited before, added travel experience and precautions, and sent them to her in the document.

Sheng Qi said thank you and sent an emoji.

Besides, there are no superfluous words.

They are using Sheng Qi's own cartoon characters as couple portraits.

Her profile picture is Sheng Qi, with big eyes, a hearty smile, and black hair draped over her shoulders.Sheng Qi's profile picture is her, with curly black hair, wearing black-rimmed glasses, and barely smiling.

Sister Wen Xu said that she was painted very vividly.

The only thing left in their conversation recently is good night and necessary schedule notifications.

In fact, they don't like to chat on mobile phones in Yujiang. They don't bother each other when they have nothing to do. They try to meet and talk when they have something to do. The emotions that can be conveyed by words are limited.

There is no corresponding bond between them, and they can still talk when they are together.Once separated, the topic will be broken.

Wen Lian's life circle is not big, mother, Xiaoqi, colleagues and relatives.

What is she willing to talk about, and what topic is Sheng Qi willing to listen to?

After thinking about it, only Xiao Qi was left, she squatted down, and took a group of photos of Xiao Qi rigorously.She thought she was cute, but Sheng Qi bought Xiao Qi's dress.

But the picture was taken as soon as it was taken, and it was sent out too deliberately, as if telling Sheng Qi: "I'm bored, I hope you talk to me, and you can talk about dogs."

It's not a problem to do it deliberately, she's not afraid to do it in front of Sheng Qi.But what Sheng Qi needs now is tranquility and relaxation, and she doesn't want to tie Sheng Qi up.

The snow outside the window has not stopped, floating in the air like catkins in a steady stream, blown by the wind and piled up again.

Wen Lian finished accompanying Xiaoqi, changed her clothes, opened the cabinet and took the umbrella.

Han Ruohua came to her and asked, "Going out in such cold?"

"Well, I won't come back for lunch." Wen Lian sat down and put on his shoes.

Han Ruohua was worried, and asked another question: "What are you doing out there?"

Although she didn't want to watch Wen Lian too closely and make her impatient, she felt uneasy.Sheng Qi heard that she had something to do when she returned to Province Y, and Ning Ning did not allow her to contact Sheng Qi these days.

It's fine if you just don't allow contact, but Wen Lian is not in a high mood and rarely talks every day.Apart from sitting with her at the dinner table for a while, I hardly ever leave the room when I get home.

And this state, before Sheng Qi, was normal.It's very abnormal now.

Based on past experience, Han Ruohua guessed that there was a high probability that they had quarreled again, and this time it was not a small conflict.

Sheng Qi will always let Ning Ning, and he doesn't know when he will come back.

Looking at her demeanor, it seemed that if she didn't ask this question, she would not be able to come back after she went out.

Wen Lian was resistant and disgusted in her heart, and looked at her mother quietly, "Can't you go out?"

"It's not that we can't go out."

Han Ruohua said softly: "Xiao Sheng is not here, no one is with you, I am afraid that you will be bored by yourself, do you want your mother to come with you?"

When Wen Lian was out of school, she also asked for leave every day and every day, and kept her very tight, lest she would be overwhelmed.

But there were a few times when she was not taken care of, and the person suddenly disappeared from the house. She immediately called her family and begged for help.She searched all the places she could find, and she was so anxious that she cried, but when it was time for dinner, Wen Lian came back as if nothing had happened.

He took out a piece of paper and handed it to her to wipe away tears, and said in a cold tone, "Don't worry, I won't commit suicide."

After doing this a few times, Han Ruohua was on the verge of breaking down, and every time she couldn't find Wen Lian, her idea was very simple, just come back after a while.

No need for good grades, no need to be polite, no need to always be dignified and peaceful, do her work and be proud.

You can take medicine, see a doctor, don't talk, or stay up in the middle of the night, and become a worrying existence.

She doesn't want any face or face. Why does she let herself and her daughter live so tiringly for others to see.

Isn't it good to live together in good health?

She never lost her temper, and always accompanied Wen Lian gently and patiently, and Wen Lian was also actively cooperating with the treatment.

A year later, his condition improved a lot, and Wen Lian went back to school.

She should be even more uncomfortable with changing classes and classmates, but she still said "don't worry about me".

When the situation was at its worst, the two of them survived together, and Han Ruohua believed her.

Once I heard from a colleague that when a child from a relative's family was seriously ill, the whole family stayed with him, and even rented a house near the university to take care of the child.The care and treatment have kept up, and the child seems to be getting healthier and more stable.

But one day, the person suddenly lost contact, and when he was found again, he was no longer there.

Planning to die is a more relaxing and joyful thing for them than waiting to heal themselves.

Han Ruohua was restless, so he asked for leave to go to Wen Lian's school, found someone, and had a meal together.

When Wen Lian saw her, she didn't ask her what she was doing from the beginning to the end, as if she didn't know that her mother had traveled by car for several hours, and only said to her before parting: "I'm fine."

When she just came back from graduation, Wen Lian probably still hated her, treating her as a transparent person every day.She just accompanied silently, doing laundry, cooking, and keeping quiet.

After a long time, Wen Lian gradually talked to her and tried to help her share the housework.

She bought the house again to make it easier for Wen Lian to go to work.Ask Wen Xu to design the home, decorate it to Wen Lian's liking, and give her the master bedroom to ensure that she lives comfortably.

She spent too much effort on Wen Lian, and she couldn't relax even a step.

Even though she knew that being so cautious would make Wen Lian unhappy, she still expressed her attitude.

"No need, Mom."

Wen Lian lowered her eyes, then raised them again, "I don't need you to accompany me in the future."

These words made Han Ruohua feel uncomfortable, but he smiled and said: "Xiao Sheng is here, let her accompany you."

"I plan to move out with Sheng Qi."

"Why, isn't it good to live next door? It's also convenient to take care of."

Seeing her downplaying but non-negotiable attitude, Han Ruohua was a little disappointed: "You still think I'm in the way?"

Shaking her head, Wen Lian said in a good voice: "She knows what happened before, and she is not very comfortable. Let her be quiet for a while. I just want you to prepare mentally first."

"I'm going to the bookstore to read, and I'll be back in the afternoon."

After Wen Lian finished speaking, he took his umbrella and went out.

Entering the elevator, she looked at the umbrella in her hand, and thought that she was holding the same umbrella the day she met Sheng Qi.

If Sheng Qi doesn't want to live here, she will go with her, she can't let Sheng Qi wander alone anymore.

As for the mother, she has been with her for more than 20 years.

There is no child who does not leave home, even in a single-parent family, children should have their own lives.She doesn't feel guilty, even if she doesn't like Sheng Qi or girls, she will move out and start a family if she gets married and has children normally in the future.

She went to the second-hand bookstore that Sheng Qi had accompanied her to several times before, the smell of old books calmed down her floating heart, and finally found a quiet place.

The boss has a good memory, so he greeted her: "Your friend didn't come today?"

Wen Lian nodded and didn't speak. Sheng Qi was usually the one to answer.

The table she and Sheng Qi liked to sit at was occupied, so they had to change places.

She took a photo of the bookstore and still wanted to send it to Sheng Qi, but just like Xiao Qi's photo, she hesitated for a long time before sending it.

This will disturb her, make her feel clingy, and not give her personal space.

Forget it.

She gave up again.

She put down her phone and read a book quietly.

As usual, there were more people around noon, and the noise was endless.When she looked up to rest, she saw a familiar figure among the readers beside the bookshelf.

Liu Chengjuan.

Unlike reading a book, the bag is still on the shoulder, it seems that he just came in out of curiosity, and he is scanning the books on the shelf with his eyes.

Wen Lian didn't want to disturb her at first, but after thinking about it, she got up and went over.

Cheng Juan smiled when he saw her: "You're here too, that's right, you and Sheng Qi like to come. I'm too busy on weekends, so I remembered Sheng Qi's recommendation, come and have a look."

She usually can't concentrate on reading. She is busy with work and spends her spare time with Wen Xu.But I've been free recently, and I have time to come and walk around.

"Well, do you want to sit down and read a book?"

Cheng Juan didn't have this plan, and glanced at his watch, "It's time for dinner, why don't we have a meal together?"

Wen Lian agreed to her without thinking, "Okay, let's go together."

"Let's go."

The two went to the door and bumped into Wan Yunsi who came in.

Liu Chengjuan's expression suddenly became unnatural, and he looked around her to make sure that she was alone today.

Wan Yunsi was very happy to see two acquaintances at the same time, "What a coincidence, are you leaving?"

"Yeah." Cheng Juan nodded.

"Are you busy, how about we have a meal together?"

Before Wen Lian could speak, Cheng Juan refused to agree, and declined: "You're welcome."

"You're not being polite, let's fight. Don't worry, I won't call someone over." Wan Yunsi knew that she didn't want to see Wen Xu now.

Letting her say this made Cheng Juan even more uncomfortable, "I have something to say to Wen Lian, let's make an appointment next time."

Wen Lian nodded, meaning it was inconvenient for her to join.

"Okay." Wan Yunsi smiled and responded gracefully.

I don't know how many times this is the first time I failed to make a dinner appointment. It's really difficult to invite people to dinner these days.

Because Wen Lian planned to go back to the bookstore, the two found a small restaurant nearby and ordered a few dishes.

Wen Lian and Sheng Qi have been to this store before, and they know the taste is good.

After Liu Chengjuan finished ordering, he cut straight to the point: "Did you quarrel with Sheng Qi?"

"She told you?"

"No. I had a few conversations yesterday. She said that she was traveling, so I guessed it. If there was no quarrel, how could she not come back to accompany you for so many days?"

Liu Chengjuan understood.

"It's not a quarrel." Sheng Qi didn't even say a harsh word to her, maybe they would feel better after arguing.

"But I didn't handle some things well and let her down."

Cheng Juan nodded as usual: "There will inevitably be friction between couples. She has a good temper, just communicate with her well."

Wen Lian nodded, curious about the relationship between them, "Have you ever quarreled?"

"No, she doesn't quarrel with people."

Liu Chengjuan thought that people who really live well don't like disputes.

"When I was a child in our village, the person I envied the most was her. She was not controlled by her parents, and many people doted on her. She had new clothes and shoes, was carefree, and had a naturally pleasing personality."

"When I grow up, I understand that each has its own difficulties."

After a dish was served, Cheng Juan scalded the tableware with tea and asked Wen Lian to move the chopsticks first.

"You have known each other for so many years."

Wen Lian didn't know what to say, she just sighed.She and Sheng Qi hadn't been together for long, but Liu Chengjuan was different.

So she had been secretly jealous before.

"Yes, we live close together. We have known each other since we were young. My family is in a difficult situation. Her grandma is very nice and has helped me a lot. She is also stupid. She gave me money on the grounds of making up lessons. Two classes a week, she paid for my meals. I know she doesn't like the class, but I needed the money and was grateful to her for a while."

Wen Lian knew about this, and told her, "It's always good to learn a little bit. Her English skills in her sophomore year of high school weren't too bad."

"Later she got to know you, she became self-conscious in her studies, and made great progress. I thought she would stop making up, but she still insisted. Even when her grandma was sick, she didn't miss my class. Although there are no weekends in the third year of high school , but it will be a little earlier on Sunday afternoon, so she called me to make up two classes at a time. Take care of my dinner and buy me snacks."

Liu Chengjuan has a sensitive personality, and she always feels terrified of others' excessive kindness.But Sheng Qi's kindness to her was not uncomfortable.

Instead, Sheng Qi said happily, "Thank you for being with me."

Her grandma is in the hospital, and Wen Lian has to study again, so no one talks to her.

Wen Lian sighed in her heart that Cheng Juan was not easy, but also envied that she could get a share of Sheng Qi's care.

"Sheng Qi cares about feelings the most."

Although she thought it was not a good thing before, Sheng Qi was too generous to others and threw away all the money he had.The friends she made were obviously not suitable for her, and she was unwilling to break up.

"Yes, in fact, the two of us can't hang out together at all. I have no money and no time to spend time with her. So I have never been sure that I am her friend, but she doesn't care about it, you are a good person."

Liu Chengjuan always thought so.

Wen Lian suddenly wondered if Cheng Juan lost a living allowance after Sheng Qi left.She felt sour. It turned out that when she was a teenager, everyone had a hard time.

Liu Chengjuan also just said this: "I thought she took care of me because she was soft-hearted and easy, but I didn't expect that she would think of me before she left."

Wen Lian stopped her chopsticks and looked at her.

"Before leaving Yujiang, she left me 5000 yuan."

Wen Lian was surprised, that was a lot of money for the students.

She knew that Sheng Qi was saving money later on, and even joked about marrying her, but she didn't know the exact amount.

"I have never had that much money in my hand. I dare not ask for it. I plan to return it to her aunt. But she sent me a text message and asked me to accept it. I took a screenshot of the text message, and I didn't delete it when I changed my phone."

"What did you say?"

Cheng Juan deliberately found the picture and showed it to her.

"Juan, come on in the third year of high school. I'm leaving. This is the money I saved. I'll borrow it from you. I'm really exhausted from studying. Don't save money on food. Your body won't collapse. When you are admitted to a good university, I will run away. To curry favor with you, pay me back when the time comes."

Wen Lian read it many times, imagining how Sheng Qi at that time still cared about her friends in that situation.

Cheng Juan felt warm and sighed: "But she lied, she didn't contact me for four years in college. I found me after I got a job, and I returned the money to her in one lump sum, and she said thank you for saving it for her."

They talked a lot about the past, and Wen Lian's understanding of Sheng Qi deepened.

Sheng Qi was better than she thought.

Sheng Qi will do what he says.

After the chat, she sent all the photos she took today to Sheng Qi.

I didn't care about others, and said bluntly: "I miss you very much, I hope you have a good time. Don't miss me, I'm fine."
