the landlord is a former

"I'll go to Germany with you."

The voice was very soft, Shi Jinzhi thought he was hallucinating, but seeing her serious and serious expression, he was sure that he had heard correctly.Surprise flooded my heart for a moment, and I couldn't help expressing my emotions.

"However, I will only accompany you until the end of the competition and return home. If you want to go to London, you can go by yourself." Fu Baiqiu added lightly.

At the beginning, the two lived together abroad, and Jinzhi was busy with her career while studying. She accompanied her all over Europe, more than half of the world, met many different people, and participated in many large and small scenes. They came together .If you want to say who is the most suitable to accompany Jinzhi, it can only be her.

She wasn't worried that this man would be sold if he was stupid, but she just didn't want to be able to explain to the Shi family in case something happened.

After all, people live here with her.

Shi Jinzhi's eyes were full of water, and he nodded repeatedly.That's enough for her.

The two looked at each other for a long time, silent.

"Are you going to work then? Can you ask for leave? The competition won't be long, three days at most." Shi Jinzhi thought of this key question.

Fu Baiqiu said calmly: "I resigned."

"When?"

"today."

Shi Jinzhi was stunned: "Why?"

Fu Baiqiu looked away, and said casually, "I want to start a new life." After saying that, he lazily rolled his eyelids.

This reason is very noble, and it also has a taste of literature and art.Shi Jinzhi wanted to ask her, is there me in her new life, she opened her mouth, but didn't dare to ask, so she hummed and said, "It's pretty good."

She didn't figure out the matter of the breakup, so she didn't have the face to press the other party too much, but these days she couldn't understand more and more, Fu Baiqiu's resistance and indifference to herself, to acquiescence and connivance, what is the reason and what is it?

There was another long silence, no one left, as if there was still something to say.

"My family called me and asked me to go back on the [-]th of next month to celebrate the New Year there." Shi Jinzhi put down the bag in his hand, feeling a little depressed, "Are you coming with me?"

"Your family celebrates the New Year, what should I do?"

The 15th is the [-]nd of the twelfth lunar month, the [-]th is the [-]rd of the twelfth lunar month, and the [-]th is the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month. For the new year, New Year’s Eve is at NO.[-], and the next day is the first day of the first month.I usually celebrate the New Year at home according to the tradition, but the family relatives have a meal on the day of the New Year, and I have a reunion dinner at home on the New Year’s Day.

Since the death of a family member, no matter how grand the festival is, it is just one person.

Shi Jinzhi heard a bit aggressive tone, his eyes were dazed, and he whispered: "I don't really want to go."

Sure enough, it wasn't her hallucination.

Fu Baiqiu's tone was not aggressive, but it was a bit harsher than before, and his brows were also furrowed, "Go if you don't want to, it's your home, and you'll be reunited with your relatives every year and festival, so why would you go out?"

After speaking, Xia Lan came to mind. This statement is really untenable. The rules of mainstream culture are rules, but they are not mandatory. There are many people who don't go home during the Spring Festival.

If Xia Lan wanted to come, Jinzhi had to leave.

Realizing that he had made such a decision in a single thought, Fu Baiqiu pinched his palms hard to comfort himself, but he was just afraid that the old man would suspect that she would not let his daughter go back for the New Year.

"Then will you go home too?" Shi Jinzhi was a little scared by her, and shrank back.

"My home is here."

"Huh? Where are your parents?"

Fu Baiqiu's eyes darkened, and he said in a stiff tone, "He's dead."

It's okay if you don't mention it, but if you mention it, it will touch her nerves, reminding her of the past, and her heart will be rolled in the oil pan again.

"...I'm sorry." Shi Jinzhi was extremely remorseful, and quickly apologized. "But how can I let you live this half a month alone?"

Not wanting to argue with her anymore, Fu Baiqiu issued an ultimatum, saying word by word: "In short, I will not keep anyone here during the Spring Festival. It is clearly stated in the contract. If you go back, you have to go back, or if you don't go back, you have to go back."

The sudden tough attitude made Shi Jinzhi puzzled and panicked, and almost immediately reflected on what he did wrong.

I didn't even think about it.

The chest was stuffy and uncomfortable, Shi Jinzhi sighed softly, summoned up the courage to hold her hand, "Maomao, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back after I go, the so-called my dad last time, how did he treat me?" Yes, you saw that too..."

"Don't worry." Fu Baiqiu interrupted, "If he doesn't let you come back, I'll come to ask for you in person." He pulled his hand away calmly.

His eyes and tone were cold, but the words he said warmed his heart. Shi Jinzhi felt a little bit of comfort, pursed his lower lip, and smiled at her.

The next day, Fu Baiqiu took Shi Jinzhi to the hospital for an injection.

This person's fear of syringes is deeply rooted in his bones. She saw her fearful eyes, hugged her trembling body, felt a dull pain in her heart, so she could only comfort her with soft words, coax her, if it wasn't for the nurse, kiss her It's okay to do it all at once.

Shi Jinzhi wanted to lie to a kisser, but it was a pity that the doctors and nurses were by her side the whole time, so she had to restrain herself from acting like a baby.

After the injection, a series of examinations were done. There was no problem with the body, and the focus was on the brain.

The doctor asked several questions, and they answered them truthfully.At present, the person is emotionally stable, the condition is well controlled, and has not deteriorated, but it is hard to say when the memory will be restored, maybe a year, maybe three to five years, ten years, or even longer, unless there is strong mental stimulation.

But this is too risky and unpredictable. If it stimulates some other mental illness, it will be very difficult to deal with.

In addition to continuing to take medicine and regular injections for control, the only effective way is to keep a good mood.

Coming out of the hospital, Shi Jinzhi huddled half of her body in Fu Baiqiu's arms, almost hanging on to her, and only at this time, Maomao would not be aggressive or cold-hearted towards her.

She was right.

Fu Baiqiu really regretted his bad attitude yesterday, but who can predict how long this "regret" will last.

She treats her well not because of love, but because of sympathy.

On the [-]th, Fu Baiqiu sent Shi Jinzhi home.

There was sleet in the sky, and the tiny snowflakes crackled and fell on the roof of the car, like the popping candy that was jubilant in the mouth when I was a child.In previous years, there have been at least two snowfalls in Rongcheng at this time, which is not big, but at least it can form a snow scene, but this year, there has been no snow for a long time. Seeing that the beginning of spring has been two days ago, maybe it will not fall.

The car approached the manor, and there was no one around, so cold and quiet that it seemed like a lifetime ago.

Shi Jinzhi sat in the co-pilot with a sad face, his heart sank a little bit as the distance got closer.The family said they would send a car to pick them up, but she refused, and asked Mao Mao to take it, and strive for some time for the two of them to spend together, as much as possible.

But no amount of time will pass, unless it's a lifetime.

The two of them didn't talk on the road, Fu Baiqiu was concentrating on driving, and he basically didn't speak. Whenever Jinzhi wanted to say something, when he turned his head to see her expression was indifferent, and the words in her throat were swallowed again.

At the entrance of the manor, they were stopped by security guards.

Fu Baiqiu consciously lowered the car window, pointed to the passenger seat, "I'll take your second lady back."

The security guard glanced at Shi Jinzhi with a bitter expression, nodded, pressed the remote control in his hand, lifted the railing, and let him go.

It takes 5 minutes to drive from the fence to the gate of the main house. The first half is the woods, and the second half is the garden, with fountains, sculptures, tennis courts and other facilities, basically unchanged. Going to be surrounded by verdant green fields, it will appear desolate and lonely in winter.

When the car stopped at the door of the main house, Fu Baiqiu turned his head and said, "Here we are."

"Kiss me." Shi Jinzhi grabbed the corner of his clothes and moved his face closer, "Otherwise I won't go down."

"..."

Fu Baiqiu's eyes dimmed, and he twisted his fingers holding the steering wheel without making a sound, as if hesitating.

A certain person didn't speak, his face moved closer, and the brown hair brushed against him.

"You go down after kissing?"

"Ah."

I've slept in bed|It's over, let alone a kiss on the face, she shouldn't be so awkward, but she just can't take the initiative in her heart, so she just closes her eyes, slams her heart, and makes a quick decision.

Fu Baiqiu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, pursed his lips slightly, and quickly kissed her cheek like a dragonfly.

"All right."

"It's too light, I can't feel it, so it doesn't count." Shi Laipi Jinzhi said solemnly.

Fu Baiqiu frowned: "Don't go too far."

"Then let me kiss you."

"..."

Before he could wait for permission, the man propped up his upper body and rushed over, wrapped his arms around her neck, and kissed her lips hard.

——Pop chirp!

Special sound.

Then Shi Jinzhi immediately let go of her, opened the car door, and got out of the car as if fleeing.

Fu Baiqiu froze in the car, regained his senses for a moment, watched her being welcomed in by the servants through the window, looked back at that step three times, his heart was like boiled water, turning hot foam.

The phone rang.

She looked away, opened WeChat, and Xia Lan sent a screenshot of the ticket order.

In the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, fly to Rongcheng from City D and land at 17:15.

Then Xia Lan sent another message: [Sister Mao Mao, please send me the address, I will navigate and take the bus there, don't bother you to pick me up [Tangled]]

Every time I say a word, I bring a small expression, like a supplement to the tone, which is cute and distressing.

Fu Baiqiu raised the corners of his lips, and sent a voice with a smile: It's okay, I'm idle, I just happened to drive out for a stroll.

【[expression]】

【Your voice is so nice [expression]】

[My phone number: 15xxxxxxxx, that's the decision, see you the day after tomorrow]

【it is good】

Fu Baiqiu put away his mobile phone, raised his eyes to look at the door of the "glass room", glanced at the rearview mirror inadvertently, and was surprised to find that his aunt was smiling, and suddenly felt like he was doing something bad.

Like a cat "stealing fishy" outside.

The rain stopped on the day of Xiaonian, and it was still a little cloudy. In the afternoon, Fu Baiqiu simply cleaned up and set off for the airport.

Rongcheng is a big city with strong inclusiveness. The number of migrant workers exceeds that of locals. Right now, most business units have not yet started their spring break, and the streets are still noisy. It will take another two days before it will become an "empty city".

The airport was far away, so Fu Baiqiu deliberately left the house two hours earlier, the car drove slowly on the road, and he really came out for a stroll.It had only been two days since she returned to living alone, and she began to feel a little uncomfortable psychologically. She was used to looking up and down and seeing that person everywhere.

She drove the car to the exit parking lot, found a spot to park in, took out her phone and sent Xia Lan a message.

[I'm here, come out and call me]

There are more than a dozen unread messages, all from Shi Jinzhi, who bombarded her on WeChat in the past two days. She tried her best to reply and comfort her, but it didn't help.

【Maomao, I miss you】

【It hurts to see you every day】

[I can't eat, I can't sleep, I don't have the energy to do anything]

【How about our video chat】

……

It was Xia Lan's first time to fly, and she chose a seat near the window near the engine. Not only was most of her sight blocked, but it was also noisy and buzzing, which gave her a headache.

Rongcheng Airport is very big. After landing, she followed the flow of people to pick up her luggage. It felt like she had walked for a long time. After so long, she began to panic, afraid of getting lost and unable to carry her luggage.She has been following the lady in yellow in front of her, frequently checking the dial information on her mobile phone, and at this moment a WeChat message pops up.

Fu Baiqiu posted it half an hour ago.

She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling inexplicably relieved, and finally followed the crowd to find the luggage carousel. She waited, and after waiting for a long time, she became anxious again.

Fault?Accident?What should I do if I keep Mao Mao waiting for a long time?

There were too many people around, so she could only stand as far away as possible and keep a distance from them. Even so, she always felt that there were countless eyes staring at her, leaving her nowhere to hide.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the turntable started to move. The third item was her small black box. She had to walk through the scattered people standing around playing with their mobile phones to get it.This time, she didn't struggle for a long time. She walked over to take it, but was accidentally touched by a lady.

"I'm sorry." She apologized reflexively.

The other party didn't seem to react, and looked at her suspiciously.

This glance was filled with countless meanings in Xia Lan's mind. Finally, she got the box and kept thinking "someone is waiting for me" before completely throwing the stranger's unconscious gaze out of her mind.

Walking out of the airport, she smelled the strange smell of a strange city.

She nervously dialed the number—

"Hello?" A clear and gentle female voice, slightly different from the WeChat voice, like a pebble falling gently into a lake.

Xia Lan's heart was beating wildly, and when her active thoughts were about to turn into words, she was so clumsy that she hated herself, "Sister Mao Mao, I... I'm Xia Lan... I'm at the airport exit... .”

She still wants to say something, like where are you.

"Cross the road and come to the parking lot. Go straight ahead of the exit. Don't stop after entering the parking lot. Go straight. The second-to-last car next to the exit is a black Jaguar with license plate A68320." No need for her to ask. , Fu Baiqiu described it in great detail, as if he knew her state of mind at the moment, for fear that she would get lost.

This voice is different from when speaking a single word, with a hint of pleasure in it, like the ancient music pouring out of an old gramophone.

Xia Lan shook her hands, "Okay."

The parking lot is open-air. After Fu Baiqiu hung up the phone, he lowered the window and looked out.The view here is excellent, and you can see the entire passage at a glance.

She saw a young girl approaching, with a slender figure, wearing an off-white fur-collared short cotton jacket, high-waisted jeans, and flat boots, holding a small black suitcase in her hand, with two straps on her shoulders, Yue Mo is still carrying a backpack behind her back.

As people approached, they could see more clearly.

Her skin is very white, so white that it seems a little sick, and it is accentuated by her shoulder-length black hair. Her whole face is delicate and clean, and she seems to be shining at first glance.Although the eyes are big, they are lifeless, like a pool of stagnant water, with a world-weary expression, and the mouth is pursed inward, full of vigilance, but very fragile.

Is it her?

"Xia Lan." Fu Baiqiu raised his voice and called out that name.

The girl paused a second later, her sleepwalking blurred eyes suddenly woke up, the panic was fleeting, and she looked around.

Just two or three steps ahead, the car door opened, and a person came down. She glanced over and froze in a daze.

At that moment, Xia Lan thought she saw her drawing board.

The woman was about thirty years old, with a gray mohair slub jacket and a mature atmosphere. Her long hair was as straight as a waterfall of stars. Her makeup was light, but she wore bright reddish-brown lip gloss. She had a gentle smile on her brows and eyes, which was alluring and dignified.

It was exactly the same as she had imagined it to be, and even more perfect.

Sure enough, her brush can't draw it. Only by seeing it with your own eyes and feeling it with your heart can you believe that this person really exists.

There was a cluster of light in the gray eyes, Xia Lan moved her lips and whispered: "Sister Mao Mao..."

"Call me sister." Fu Baiqiu smiled softly and stretched out his arms to her.

Xia Lan's eyes flickered, and the corners of her mouth clumsily twitched: "Sister." Then she walked up to her slowly and cautiously, and hugged her.

A faint fragrance came to her face, Xia Lan sniffed her nose lightly, as if she was sleepwalking, unconsciously, before she had time to feel it carefully, she was released.

Fu Baiqiu took a rough look at her. This child is too thin, and can't hold up even if he wears a lot of clothes in winter. He is delicate and delicate, and his writing is weak. Looking at him from a close distance, he looks like a weak willow in the wind. The taste of "sickness like Xizi wins three points".

I used to be like this too.

Xia Lan was a little embarrassed, wanted to speak but didn't know what to say, although she had known each other for five years and knew a lot about each other, but when they met for the first time today, [-]D was different from [-]D, and she was as nervous as throwing her into the crowd.

Just as he was struggling, a low but gentle voice sounded in his ears:

"It's hard work coming here alone."

Xia Lan suddenly raised her head.

Fu Baiqiu took her hand, held it gently, and said with a smile, "You are great."
