A single tree does not make a forest

With her heart beating fast, Lin Song thought confusedly: "So when we were not at home, Ah Qin was always in this state?"

Holding his breath, he quietly retreated to the place where he entered the door, and deliberately shouted: "Aqin, I'm back!"

After a while, Song Wanqin's voice came from the bedroom: "You brat came back early today, go do your homework and wait for me to cook."

"Okay!" He pretended to be cheerful, entered his room, closed the door and put his ear close to the door, just in time to hear the sound of the door closing next door, and after a while, the sound of splashing water in the kitchen sounded , followed by the sound of cutting vegetables.

He leaned his back against the door and stared straight out of the window. There was a pear tree there, and the crown full of buds could just be seen here.

He suddenly wanted to talk to Song Beiqi, he could say anything, even if he scolded him a few words.If it was Song Beiqi, maybe he would understand this indescribable feeling.

But he will never say it.

It is not suitable for him to talk about this kind of thing, he thought, the emotions of a man are destined to be digested by himself.

"Mom, my dad seems to be coming back very late during this time?" Lin Song asked as if he pretended to realize that Lin Ruiqiang was not there during the meal.

"You just found out, little bastard. You didn't even know that your father was on a business trip. He went to the countryside in Linzhen, and it took him two days to come back." Song Wanqin tapped his head with chopsticks, "Do you think you're just learning to be stupid or Did you get carried away?"

Lin Song grabbed her hand, looked at the chopsticks, and put his head in the past: "Did you see that? I was fooled by you! My memory is pretty bad now, so don't blame me for failing the exam next time!"

Song Wanqin cursed with a smile, and said, "I've found some cold medicine for you, take it after dinner, so as not to hurt your stomach."

Lin Song nodded with a smile and said, "Aqin is the best!"

"Come on, no matter how good it is, when you have a wife in the future, don't you have to forget about me, an ugly girl?"

"No, no, Aqin is the most beautiful in my heart!" Lin Song said and saw that she was really smiling, and he felt relieved.

At noon the next day, Song Wanqin went out to buy groceries, Lin Song went to their bedroom to search, and finally found the photo she was holding yesterday in Song Wanqin's bedside cabinet.

It was an old photo of some years ago, much older than Lin Song, the photography skills were not very good at that time, the color had faded a lot, and it looked like a poor-quality postcard painted.A man and a woman above are still about eighteen or nineteen years old. Lin Ruiqiang looks thin, tall and very bookish, and he carefully puts his hands on the shoulders of the people around him.And Song Wanqin was really just like her name, she was so gentle and pretty that it was ridiculous.

He suddenly remembered a phrase that Li Weinan had been chanting for the past two days: "Life is only as it was when you first saw it."

He only understands the literal meaning, but he doesn't understand the deeper things. When he heard it, he even laughed at Li Weinan for moaning without illness.At this moment, he suddenly remembered it, as if he had spied on some great secret.

He came back to his senses and quickly put the photo back in its original place, when he heard the phone in the living room ringing suddenly.

He hurriedly went out to pick it up and said "Hello", but there was no voice from the other side. He thought he had made a mistake, and was about to hang up suspiciously, when the other side said, "Lin Song, it's me."

"Song Beiqi? Is this your home phone number?" Lin Song laughed when he heard the voice, "What's the matter? Are you lonely and want to find your master?"

There was no sound from the other side, and after a while he said: "No, I'm outside now, I have something to tell you, can you come out, I'll wait for you at the gate of No. [-] Middle School."

Lin Song answered "Yes" in surprise, picked up his schoolbag and left even though he was a little confused, and left a note for Song Wanqin after thinking about it for a while.

When he was writing, he remembered that after his aunt came last time, he never mentioned Song Beiqi in front of Song Wanqin again. After struggling for a while, he decided to lie and said on the note that he would go to the county with You Susu to buy exercises after class book.

As soon as he arrived at the school gate, Song Beiqi came over and stopped him: "Follow me."

"Where are you going?" Lin Song asked without resisting, and followed him on the only bus bound for the county in the town at that time.

Song Beiqi looked a little serious, but Lin Song didn't ask. He felt a little panic in his heart, but he couldn't hold on to it.It's like a prisoner who is about to die and reincarnate earlier, but at the same time he can't help prolonging the silence because of fear.

There are always so many people on the bus that people feel like they are part of a can of sardines that cannot be broken free. People get together very "intimately", whether you like it or not, they are all stuffed together.

The two stood squeezed against the car window, and the rings and armrests above their heads kept bumping into Lin Song's head. Finally, a girl next to him stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Song's head to free some space.

Seeing that he was silent, Song Beiqi suddenly said softly: "I went to the county seat in the morning, and I planned to buy materials, but I didn't buy them in the small bookstore in front of the school."

The two were about the same height, and Song Beiqi's voice was next to his ears. Lin Song felt his ears were itchy and didn't bother to scratch them. He asked, "And then?"

Song Beiqi was silent for a while: "Then I saw your father."

Lin Song was surprised: "You know my dad?"

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly realized again, and rushed to speak in front of Song Beiqi, his nasal voice sounded heavier than the day before, as if he had a more serious cold: "Oh yes, you saw him many times when you were young, he doesn't seem to have changed much. , but my mother looks much older."

He didn't ask you what happened to my dad, it seemed that he had some premonition in his heart, or he didn't think about going there, so Song Beiqi didn't know how to speak.

After a while, Lin Song asked again: "Then have you bought the materials?"

"I've bought it." Song Beiqi said, "I also bought yours."

Lin Song smiled at him, and stretched out his hand to grab the strap of his schoolbag, as if trying to maintain balance, but veins appeared on the back of his hand, and his knuckles turned white.He said: "This car is really crowded."

Song Beiqi felt that his entire chest was pressed against him, and he wanted to move back a little distance, but the people behind him kept squeezing, so he had no choice but to whisper embarrassingly: "There are always so many people in Xianshui. .”

Lin Song nodded, looking out the window at the field already dyed green.

Song Beiqi took Lin Song to the alley not far from the county bookstore, hid inside and pointed to a hotel diagonally opposite: "I've thought about it for a long time, and I think I should let you know."

Lin Song asked calmly, as if he had nothing to do with himself, "How do you know he's still here? What if he's already gone?"

The people behind were silent for a while, Lin Songben asked casually, and felt something was wrong when he saw his reaction, he turned his head and looked at him questioningly: "You didn't keep watch all night, did you?"

Song Beiqi quickly waved his hand, and said honestly: "I came here last night. I wanted to leave after buying the book, but I just saw it. I was afraid that I was wrong, and I was afraid that I was wrong, so I went in I also booked a room. When I saw that they didn't come out to check out at noon, it is very likely that they will stay here tonight, so I went back and called you. "

After he finished speaking, he saw Lin Song staring at him motionlessly, thinking that he was angry with him for his unnecessary actions, so he explained: "I'm sorry Lin Song, I didn't want to meddle in other people's business, I just..."

Lin Song suddenly turned around and hugged him, but he froze in place, not even the end of what he had to say.Lin Song smiled: "Thank you Song Beiqi, I know, it's hard for you to run back and forth."

Song Beiqi lowered his head: "Maybe I really misunderstood."

Lin Song stopped talking and just stared at the door of the hotel without moving.

Before he knew it, it was past four o'clock in the afternoon. Lin Song sat on a stone in the alley bored, took out an extra-curricular book from Song Beiqi's schoolbag and read a few pages. Song Beiqi leaned against the wall and looked outside.Lin Song looked up and saw that he was still wearing his school uniform, and thought that he hadn't been back since last night, and he didn't know what his family would be worried about after two days and one night.

Thinking of it this way, he felt a little guilty, and asked, "You haven't gone back since last night, how can you explain it when you go back?"

Song Beiqi didn't speak, Lin Song thought he didn't hear, so he stretched out his hand and tugged at the hem of his school uniform, Song Beiqi turned his head, he was about to ask again, before Song Beiqi said, "No need to explain."

Lin Song was about to ask why, but Song Beiqi waved: "Come out!"

Lin Song grabbed Song Beiqi's hand and stood up, standing behind him, seeing a tall and beautiful woman coming out of the hotel, Lin Song grabbed Song Beiqi's hand before he could let go, and suddenly tightened it.

Song Beiqi looked at him in surprise: "This is the woman I saw last night. What?"

Lin Song gritted his teeth: "I know her."

When I was a child, my grandmother was ill for a while, Song Wanqin stayed in the hospital every day, Lin Song was left alone, Lin Ruiqiang took him to work, and every time he went, this woman took care of him.At that time, he innocently said to the exhausted Song Wanqin: "The aunt in my father's work unit is so beautiful, prettier than my mother."

This made him want to throw that ignorant bastard into the Xianshui River just thinking about it.

Not long after, Lin Ruiqiang also came out, and the two of them stayed far behind, and finally saw them enter a western restaurant one after the other.

At that time, Xianshui, western restaurants and high-end entertainment venues were synonymous with luxury. Lin Song stood across the street, thinking that perhaps Aqin would not even be willing to go to this kind of place, he sneered: "It's quite cautious."

Song Beiqi looked back and forth at the surrounding environment, and saw that the large window of the western restaurant was facing the corner of the street.He asked: "Are you still following?"

Lin Song hesitated for a while, then said decisively: "Follow!"

"Come with me." Song Beiqi tugged at him, turned around and left, and Lin Song followed him up the stairs of an Internet cafe dully.After entering the Internet cafe, the two of them turned on two computers by the windows. Song Beiqi raised the curtains a little, and he could see clearly a row of boxes on the second floor of the western restaurant.

I don't know if they were lucky or unlucky, because just as he opened the curtain, he saw Lin Ruiqiang kissing the woman.He was about to call Lin Song when he turned around and saw his red eyes, not because of sadness, but because of anger.

Song Beiqi called out in a daze: "Lin Song?"

Lin Song looked at him for a while, and Song Beiqi felt that he might cause trouble according to his temperament, so he pressed his hand: "Don't be impulsive, this matter has to be discussed in the long run."

Lin Song lowered his head after hearing this, and did not lose control as Song Beiqi expected.After a while, he suddenly raised his head, and asked softly, somewhat at a loss: "What should I do, Song Beiqi? How sad would Aqin be if she found out? She treated him so well."

Song Beiqi felt that his whole heart was suspended, and he began to feel that it was a mistake to let him know about this matter.He wanted to comfort him but felt that words were useless, so he let him grab his clothes and look at him with panic eyes that he had never seen before.

"What should I do, Song Beiqi?"
