"New Year's Eve... New Year's Eve..." Xiaobai jumped up and down excitedly, while Tao Jia put the dishes ordered by the restaurant on the plate, while looking after the soup in the pot, seeing Xiaobai so excited, he joked: "Are you A child? Why are you so happy!" Xiaobai quickly jumped up to Tao Jia and took the plate in his hand and replied, "Of course I am happy. No one has ever celebrated the New Year with me." Tao Jia's eyes darkened, thinking of I felt a little sour, so I stretched out my hand to rub Xiaobai's hair, and said with a smile, "This year is different, the two of us celebrate the New Year together, and we have to watch the New Year together!" "Well, good!" Xiaobai nodded with a smile promise.

Putting the dishes on the table and filling the glass with wine, Xiao Bai just picked up the juice when Tao Jia pressed his hand and said, "Today is different, I want a glass too, um... just one glass!" Xiaobai nodded to refill it for him, Tao Jia smiled and picked up the cup and said: "Sometimes fate is very strange, I have no brothers and sisters, and I am the only child in the family. Seeing you for the first time, I feel very happy, I want to It would be nice to have a brother as old as you! Xiaobai, let me be your brother, okay? Although I have no experience, I will definitely study hard." Xiaobai looked into Tao Jia's eyes, which were flickering under the incandescent lamp. Silver light, sincerity makes people have nowhere to hide.

"I'm afraid I'm not worthy!" Xiao Bai lowered his head and his voice trembled. "Nonsense! Could it be that you didn't want to, that's why you said that?" Tao Jia asked pretending to be angry.Xiaobai hurriedly explained: "I do nothing all day long, I don't know anything, you are different, you are very good, and many people like you. I think it must be great to be your younger brother. I can't meet this standard... ""Fool!" Tao Jia couldn't help but reached out and patted his shoulder and said gently: "We are all alone. After we become brothers, we can take care of each other and rely on each other. Don't you like it?" "Yes, But..." "If you like it, don't let your mother-in-law!" Tao Jia raised his glass to signal Xiaobai.Tears rolled in his eyes, Xiaobai lifted the cup up, and the two cups touched together, as if it was an agreement.

Xiaobai wiped the corners of his eyes, raised his chopsticks and prepared to eat.Tao Jia took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to him. Xiaobai was taken aback for a moment, and took it. Tao Jia said, "According to Chinese customs, the elders give red envelopes to the younger during the Chinese New Year. There is not much money. I just want to ask for auspiciousness, and I hope you will be happy in the new year." Xiao Bai burst into tears, and threw herself into Tao Jia's arms sobbing.Tao Jia's eyes were also a little wet, and he patted him on the shoulder: "It's New Year's Eve, why are you crying?" I must not accept it..." "How could I not want you?" "What if I do something wrong? What if I do many things wrong? What if I hurt you? Will you still recognize me? Will you forgive me? Is it my younger brother?" Tao Jia looked at the boy crying in his arms, and said softly, "Xiaobai, I have done many mistakes in the past, maybe even more mistakes than you will in the future, although I hope Don't make detours like me, but you are still young, it is impossible not to make mistakes, so the most important thing in the existence of family members is that no matter what you do wrong, they will always forgive you!" After hearing these words, Xiao Bai, She cried even harder, but also more like a child, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances from childhood to adulthood.

Just as Shen Jiangfan hung up the phone, the old man at home personally called to remind him. Shen Jiangfan had no choice but to obey.He brought Chu Yuechen's favorite snacks to visit him. Chu Yuechen was still the same, but his condition was still up and down after treatment.Every time she saw Shen Jiangfan coming, Chu Yuechen was still very happy. Shen Jiangfan said something with him, took him for a walk, and coaxed him to behave before coming out of the nursing home.Tao Jia has been away for more than a month, but during this month, Shen Jiangfan has not shown any impatience, he really wants to know that no matter how long it takes, he will find him eventually.

As soon as he got in the car, Ada called. The moment he hung up the phone, Shen Jiangfan quickly started the car without any hesitation, and drove all the way to the high speed. At that moment, he realized that he had suppressed so strongly desire.After dialing the phone back, Shen's mother picked it up. Naturally, she was scolded for a while, but in the end she agreed.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, there were almost no cars on the highway, and Shen Jiangfan was driving very fast. He couldn't wait. After more than seven hours of driving, when he arrived at Tao Jia's downstairs, it was already past eleven o'clock at night .Shen Jiangfan stopped the car at the intersection and walked into the lane by himself.No. 1304, [-]th Floor, Unit [-], Building [-].

Standing downstairs and looking at the floors, the street lights in the community are very poor, and the surrounding area is dark. Shen Jiangfan looked at the small balcony in the distance, and there was a warm light inside. He smiled and took out the Light a cigarette.When I came here, I couldn't wait. It turned out that I really arrived at the place, but I didn't know how to face it.He took out the pocket watch in his bosom and rubbed it carefully. Since Zhou Zheng gave him this birthday present, Shen Jiangfan has been carrying it all the time. He has to take it out to look at it and stroke it several times every day.The pointer points to twelve o'clock little by little.Shen Jiangfan stubbed out the cigarette butt, and dialed the number given by Ada.The voice from the other end of the phone was so familiar that Shen Jiangfan didn't know how to react for a while.

Tao Jia stared blankly at the location of the strange number displayed on the phone, and felt a slight agitation in his heart, which seemed to be called telepathy.Xiaobai was watching happily in front of the TV, Tao Jia made a gesture, got up and pushed open the glass door to the small balcony.There was no sound from the other end of the phone for a long time, so that Tao Jia had the illusion that the phone had never rang.

After a long time, there was a sudden cough on the other end of the phone, and Tao Jia's heart skipped a beat. "How are you doing recently?" Shen Jiangfan stared intently at the figure on the balcony on the 13th floor, with mixed feelings. "I'm fine, how about you?" Tao Jia replied as calmly as possible. "Isn't it surprising you received my call?" Shen Jiangfan smiled, looked up at Tao Jia again, turned and walked in the direction he came from. "How should I put it?" Tao Jia smiled and said, "I just have a feeling that you will definitely find me." Shen Jiangfan paused, and walked forward again after a while: "It seems like you are in my line of sight." It has become an instinct, it is as natural as eating and sleeping." The other end of the phone was quiet, and after a while, he said again: "I really live a good life, I live very happy and relaxed every day, I haven't felt like this for a long time "That's good!" "I'm standing on the balcony now, the air is very good, there seems to be no firecrackers and fireworks here, it's very quiet, how about you? It must be very lively!" "Yes! You know Yes, City B has always been like this..."

Flutter... On the main road, a little boy was playing with his brother downstairs and didn't notice that Shen Jiangfan was walking over. He bumped into him. The little boy was frightened and stood where he was. His little brother hurried up to grab his brother Apologize: "Uncle, I'm sorry, my brother didn't do it on purpose." The little boy hurriedly said timidly, "I'm sorry..." Shen Jiangfan reached out and touched the little boy's head, and took out a few chocolates from his pocket. At the time of the moon, he stuffed it in his pocket.The two children happily took the chocolate, smiled and ran away after it.Tao Jia heard some voices on the phone, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?" Shen Jiangfan picked up the phone again and said with a smile: "It's nothing, just a little accident."

Fireworks were blooming in the distant sky, and Xiaobai in the house shouted, counting down to 4,3,2,1, 5, [-], [-] along with the TV... "Happy New Year!" The two said to the phone in unison, but couldn't help it Laughed.Shen Jiangfan leaned against the car door and closed the pocket watch in his hand and put it in his pocket: "I've found you, so don't hide from us anymore, call Qiaona, she is very worried about you..." "Well, I know! ""You don't have to worry about the bar, my people are watching, and Xiao Wen's wife, I have already arranged someone to take care of you..." "You..." "Xiao Jia, I didn't expect to have the opportunity to say Happy New Year to you this year , I went to Liuguang a few days ago to find out that you have transferred the management rights. I thought I would be able to find you this time, but I didn’t expect you to use the phone number in E City to arrange a caretaker for her. E City and Where you are now is at least [-] hours away by car. Should I praise you for being smart or be mad at you for being too smart?" "I'm sorry..." Tao Jia apologized in a low voice, "I just think, Since you want to leave, you should leave cleanly..." "I said this just to tell you! If you like the current state, continue to live like this! But, if you choose to leave again, remember to tell me you are going Where, don't make me worry! But even if you don't tell me, I will definitely find you, I have this confidence." "Shen Jiangfan... Thank you for not giving up on me, it is your not giving up that made me not give up on me Myself." "I should thank you! I didn't really understand a lot of things until I met you, and I thought about a lot of issues that I never cared about..."

The two chatted a few more words, and Xiao Bai kept urging Tao Jia in the room.Shen Jiangfan heard it, and said goodbye first.

At this moment, Xiaobai was already dressed and ready to have a good time with the firecrackers. Tao Jia hurriedly changed his shoes, and the two went downstairs together.Xiaobai ran to the corner to fiddle with him, and Tao Jia stood aside and used a flashlight to provide him with light. Two boys came running not far away. They ran to Xiaobai curiously to watch his movements, and one of them even stretched out his hand to touch him. , blocked by Xiaobai.The little boy looked at his brother aggrievedly, and the brother patted his head.Tao Jia thought it was very interesting, so he squatted down and opened the bag on one side. There were small fireworks sticks there, which could be held in his hand to play with after being lit.Tao Jia took out a few sticks and handed them to the little brother, and said, "You can't order this by yourself, you have to go home and ask the adults at home to accompany you!" After speaking, he smiled and patted the little boy's head. The little boy looked at each other with a smile, thanked him obediently, turned around and ran away, and ran back after a few steps. Tao Jia thought it was interesting and asked, "What's the matter?" He put two pieces of chocolate wrapped in heart-shaped gold foil paper in his palm, and said obediently: "The uncle who bumped into me when I ran over just now, he didn't get angry and returned the chocolate to us. Now I'm giving the chocolate to the big brother, thank you Give us fireworks." After finishing speaking, he dragged his brother and ran away.Tao Jia stared at the chocolate in his hand, froze for a moment, then laughed.He threw one piece to Xiaobai, and put the other piece into his mouth, colorful fireworks bloomed in the air, accompanied by the sweet taste in his mouth, Shen Jiangfan, this piece of chocolate is the best I have ever received from you nice new year gift...
