He looked outside and saw that the house lights were on.He didn't know what the internal layout of the house in this residential building was like, so he didn't know whether it was the kitchen light or the room light that was on.

He lingered on the spot, took out his phone again, and sent a message to Gu Xiaocheng: "I'm here, can I go up? But the problem is, I asked an uncle in the community here in the afternoon, and the uncle said that she hasn't come back for a long time. She shouldn't be at home."

"You're just cowardly. Is her light on?"

"It's on, but it should be her husband's daughter from his ex-wife inside."

"You don't care about 21, go up, you call it arguing at your door, she dares to come to your house to quarrel, why don't you dare to come to her house to quarrel? When you see her, just argue with her, if her daughter is there, Just ask her, what is her stepmother's contact information. Coward!"

"Oh……"

Xiao Fang went upstairs and knocked on the door hesitantly.

He heard a noise inside, and after a while, he heard a little girl's voice timidly asking through the anti-theft door: "Who is it?"

Xiao Fang paused and said, "I'm looking for Liu Yinhui."

"She, she's not here."

"When will she be back?"

"I don't know, she hasn't been back for a long time."

"She left you here alone, leaving you alone?"

There was no sound at all on the other side of the anti-theft door, as if it was dead silent.

Fang Jie thought that it seemed fruitless today, so he decided to go back and forget about it. It's not too late to buy a high-speed rail ticket now.

He had already descended to the corner landing of the stairs between the fourth and fifth floors, when he suddenly heard the sound of a door opening behind him.

He looked back and saw the little girl standing in the doorway, looking down at him.

Fang Jie saw a small square stool at the door, and he thought, maybe the little girl moved that square stool over before, so that she could only see the cat's eyes when she stood on it.

He went up again and asked, "Didn't you go to the opposite house for dinner today? Or have you already eaten?"

"They're not home."

"Have you had dinner then?"

"I'll order the noodles later, there are still noodles at home."

Xiao Fang thought to himself: "..."

He paused for a while and said, "Go out to eat with your brother."

The girl hesitated and didn't speak.

Xiao Fang pulled her out and said, "I can't do without food. Let's go, what do you want to eat?"

After the girl went back to get the key, she actually followed him downstairs, maybe she was really hungry.

Xiao Fang took her hand and walked away.

He was thinking about how many things that woman had to abandon. She abandoned him before, and Xiaoji before—it is estimated that she has not been kept by her for long. She is the kind of owner who is on a whim. When she is happy, she buys one in the early one thousand. pets, but they don’t spend time learning how to take care of pets at all. If they get bored, they may just abandon them outside.

Now she has abandoned this girl again.

Yes, Xiao Fang also believes that she has her various reasons, she is a beautiful woman, and she has the life she wants.She felt that she was not a good match for Lao Fang, she had had enough, it was time to leave, and she just left; now that the girl was not her own, she naturally felt that she didn't need to care about it.

Xiao Fang walked in the night.

Suddenly remembered that day, when Gu Xiaocheng was teaching him English online, he saw a sentence in the movie, the woman said: "My life is passing me by, I can't just wait for nothing, and my patience is wearing thin."

He asked Gu Xiaocheng what this meant, and Gu Xiaocheng said: "It means: my life is flowing around me, I can't just wait here, and my patience is gradually worn out."

Xiao Fang didn't remember what the English sentence said, but he remembered the Chinese meaning that Gu Xiaocheng translated to him. At that time, he thought, isn't this just talking about his mother?

The girl suddenly looked up at him: "Big brother, what are you thinking?"

"It's nothing. Can I take you to KFC?"

"it is good!"

The two went to the nearest KFC restaurant. Xiao Fang ordered a hamburger and a hot Milo for the girl, but he ordered a sundae himself.

The girl was eating the hamburger, and seeing him digging into the sundae with a spoon, she asked, "Big brother, aren't you cold?"

"It's not cold, my brother's head is hot, he needs to eat something cold to calm down."

Girl: "..." Then she ate her burger in silence.

"Have you finished your homework today?"

"Not yet, I still... have to review."

"Xiaoqi, your house has been confiscated by the court. I heard from neighbors that you won't be able to live in it in another month. Your mother hasn't come back yet. Where are you going to live in a month?" He asked before She gave the girl's name, her name is Wang Wenqi.

After the girl heard this, she didn't know if it was because of an ostrich mentality. She just lowered her head to eat, but didn't speak.

Xiao Fang guessed that she knew what happened at home, but she just didn't have the courage to face it, so she went to and from school as usual every day, but never brought it up.When others mention it, she also avoids it.

"Xiao Qi, you can't do it if you don't want to. What are you going to do next? I heard from your neighbor that your mother hasn't come back for a long time. She should have filled out the entrustment application for you. After that, you should be punished by your father." Adopted by my brother. However, if they don’t want to adopt it, it’s okay, but your mother should send you to someone who is willing to accept you. You can’t just delay like this. After a month, the court came to take over the house. Where are you going to live? Woolen cloth?"

Xiaoqi was still eating her hamburger without saying a word.

This day, after he sent Xiaoqi home, he left her some money and told her to go out to buy food for breakfast, lunch and dinner the next day.

Xiao Fang stayed in this small town for one night, and took the high-speed train back to Wucheng early the next morning.

After he went back, he felt a faint uneasiness in his heart.

After more than a week like this, he still has a kind of uneasiness that cannot be shaken off.Sometimes he would think that Xiaoqi didn't know whether she was dead or alive these days.

But he felt that Xiaoqi's matter had nothing to do with him after all, and he didn't need to care so much, so he tried to forget that memory in the small city.

During this period of time, Gu Xiaocheng also asked him about the previous experience, asked him if he was cowardly, if he saw that woman, and if he said out loud what he should say.

He replied: "I didn't see her at all last time. I don't know if she went to another city again. Does she think she is a refugee? —Maybe she is still in Wucheng, after all, this is her hometown , but I never heard Xiao Qin talk about her again, she probably never came to my house again."

About two weeks later, it was a Thursday, and Xiao Fang had already "persisted" in sleeping for five consecutive mornings until the red sun was rising.At ten o'clock, he woke up drowsily, and found that there was a missed call from Gu Xiaocheng's WeChat on his phone.

He sat up on the bed and called back.

"Hey, what's the matter with you? I slept until nine o'clock yesterday, and today it was postponed?"

"Well."

"Oh, what a little pig."

"Ah? You... Didn't you let me learn to live a leisurely life before? You didn't let me sleep until late to get up. Why do you call me a pig now that I have done it?"

"I think you'd better go to bed early and get up early. It's good for your health. Listen to your voice now. It's so hoarse. It hurts my ears when I hear it. You don't seem to have slept enough, but you It's the sound after a long illness."

"Okay...Actually, I also feel that I am tired from sleeping like this. ——Could you always show me the way to go, and why do you always lead me into the ditch?"

He chatted with Gu Xiaocheng for a while, then got up to prepare dog food for Xiaoji, then he finished washing up, and went out to buy food.

There has been a sense of unease in his heart recently, and it is getting stronger and stronger.There is always a feeling that the deadline is approaching and something terrible is about to happen, but he can't tell what the source of this uneasiness is.

He bought a KFC with an ice cream sundae in it.The KFC restaurant in Gem Square was a little deserted after ten o'clock in the morning.The younger sister, the waiter at the counter, asked a lot: "Eat a sundae in the morning? It's not warm." Maybe it was because Xiao Fang couldn't help striking up a few words—after all, he is handsome.

"Uh... huh? Oh... I don't know, my head is hot, and I ate it to cool down."

He walked back inside with the meal.

Along the way, he suddenly figured out why he felt more and more uneasy these two days.It turned out that in a few days, the court in the city was going to take over Xiaoqi's house.I don’t know if the people from the court saw that the child inside was not taken care of when they went to collect the house, would they help take care of it, maybe help give it to someone for adoption, or put it in some social welfare institutions for custody?

"Will people care about it? - I didn't leave enough money last time, only more than 200 yuan, which is not enough for her food expenses for the past three weeks. If she has no money, if her neighbors don't come back, she Where should I go for dinner?" Xiao Fang was thinking as he walked.

The next day, he finally couldn't hold back and wanted to go to that small city again.

From the time he went out, the sky was dark and he looked like he couldn't get out of it. He carried a backpack with an umbrella in it.After explaining some things in the newly rented small shop, he set off for that city.

After arriving at the downstairs of the house, he inquired again, asking if the adult of Liu Yinhui's family had returned.The two who asked first said they didn't know, they didn't know each other.Then I asked one, and said, it seems that I have never seen the adults come back.

He also asked, "Does that kid still live here?"

"I seem to have heard from their neighbors that they still live here."

"Then when does she leave school?"

"What study? It's winter vacation now. If you don't go out, you'll be at home."

"Ah? Oh, yes, thank you, thank you." He thought, he was too confused—after hearing Gu Xiaocheng's words these days, not only did he not live a leisurely life, but he became more and more confused, even elementary school students are on vacation now. Know.

He thanked the man, went up to the fifth floor of the building in front of him, knocked on the door, and heard some movement inside, and said, "Is Xiaoqi in there? I'm the big brother."

The child inside ran over and opened the door.

Fang Jie went to sit in her house and found that the inside was not messy. It could be seen that she had worked hard to clean it up.

"The last time I came to see you, were you still in school? When did the holidays start?"

"Big brother, when you came last time, I had a final exam in three days, and I'll let you go after the exam."

"Oh.——The Spring Festival will be in three days. How can you spend it alone? Are you spending it with the uncle and aunt across the door?"

"They didn't say whether I could go there. It seems that someone came to their house, and it's not convenient for me to go to eat these days."

"Did she never come back?"

"..."

Xiao Fang thought to himself: "Damn X, what are you doing, you are busy looking for a new home!"

Xiao Fang turned to her and said, "How about this, you and your brother go back to Wucheng to celebrate the New Year. When will you start school? I will send you back after the New Year...but after the New Year, you should officially hand in Returning to the court...have you been to your uncle's house in the country?"

"I haven't been back for many years. I don't remember it. I just heard from my dad that I lived there... Big brother, are you really willing to take me home for the New Year?"

"Ken." He paused and said, "Pick up some of your clothes and underwear, put them in your schoolbag, and we'll leave later."

"Yeah." She turned her head and went into the room to tidy up.
