Chapter 21 A-1

However, he left after all... In the early morning, Sang Li woke up from her sleep, because she dreamed of Xiang Ning's back, Shen Jie's face and the billboard at the intersection that said "Li Yuan Mansion, Jiangnan's old dream, meet again"...they It was jumping and expanding in her mind, as if it was about to explode her brain.She opened her eyes and shook her head vigorously, trying to shake out these fragmented fragments.She looked at the clock on the opposite wall, the hour hand pointed at 6 o'clock, thought for a while, got up decisively, opened the curtains, and watched the morning sun rushing into the room.

Open the window again, the air is so fresh, and there are crisp birdsong in the grove.It seems that there is only one person missing standing behind him, with sleepy eyes, and condemning himself "Sang Li, why did you get up so early"... Can't think about it anymore.Thinking about it further, Sang Li was afraid that he would suffer from depression. So I opened the closet, picked out a cotton one-piece dress, the kind that reached to the ankle, and wore a pair of flat boots, which looked like characters in fairy tales.Sang Li was very satisfied with his appearance, and opened the door to go to "you and me" downstairs to have morning tea.

However, she just didn't expect that she would be blocked at the door by such a figure from behind! The moment the door opened, a man's back suddenly made her freeze in place. It was sudden. She found out later that she even shivered a little when she saw the figure from behind, and her heart tightened and then loosened instantly, as if there was a short-term lack of blood supply.She watched the man in front of her turn around slowly, holding a small note in her hand, looked suspiciously at the open door of Room 201, then at Sang Li, and then her eyes flicked slightly. Sang Li just stared blankly at the person in front of him: double eyelids, big eyes, light wheat-colored skin, tall stature, still healthy and bright, seemed more mature and stable.

After a long time, he finally smiled slightly: "Xiao Li, long time no see." It's been a long time, two years.The last time we met, I was still in the hospital, my whole body was swollen like a sorghum bun, haggard and miserable.No one came to see her, except for the routine visits of the unit leaders, she seemed to be abandoned by the world. However, he was the only one who came all the way to her side to be her nurse, wipe her body and change her clothes... Even the aunt in the next bed said, "Girl, your lover is so kind to you." spouse?At that time, she only had a wry smile in her heart.

However, she still left.One morning, she settled the hospital bill with a large sum of money Liang Weisong gave her, bought him a plane ticket back home, and then left. She left him a note: Nan Yang, thank you all these years, I am gone, never look for me. However, he still found it here? ! When she wanted to forget everything about the past and start over, he actually found it here! Sang Li's vision was a little blurry, as if tears were about to flow out.But Nan Yang was one step ahead of her to stop her crying: He suddenly stretched out his hand, suddenly pulled Sang Li into his arms, and hugged her tightly.

He whispered bitterly in her ear: "You child, run farther if you have the ability, so we can't find you..." Sang Li's tears finally fell drop by drop, landing on Nan Yang's clothes, her voice trembling: "Brother, I'm sorry." Nan Yangsong let go of his arms, looked down at Sang Li, saw the wet mist on her eyelashes, and couldn't help but choked up his voice: "Xiao Li, you've lost weight, why can't you treat yourself better?" Sang Li bit her lip and lowered her head: "I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry..." Nan Yang sighed for a long time, and after a while he smiled wryly and said, "Xiao Li, why does it sound like we are acting in a Qiong Yao play?"

Sang Li was finally amused: "Brother, you know I never read romance novels." Sang Li was telling the truth: from childhood to adulthood, Sang Li only needed a lot of music books in her life, and she didn't have the time or interest to read other books. Nan Yang sighed, let go of Sang Li, and followed her into the room, and sure enough, he saw a few copies of "Sanlian · Philharmonic" magazines scattered on the sofa.One of them was opened, and on the opened page was an article called "Madame Butterfly Born for Love". Nan Yang sat on the sofa, suddenly feeling filled with emotion.

Sang Li brought out the rinsed tea sets from the kitchen and placed them on the coffee table one by one.The tea is Longjing tea from the Ming Dynasty, with light color and uniform leaves, and the brewed tea is also light golden.Nan Yang picked it up and took a sip, seeing Sang Li sitting across from him, he just drank his tea without speaking. "Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." After a long time, Sang Li spoke, her eyes were soft and her tone was calm. Nan Yang nodded: "Yes, you run so fast, and you disappeared for three years. If I didn't ask my old classmates to check the temporary population information in various places, I'm afraid I still can't find you."

Sang Li seemed to think of something suddenly: "Brother, where did you go after graduation?" "I have returned to the Department of Political Science and Law of the Provincial Normal University to be a teacher," he smiled slightly: "I said earlier, even if I missed all the trial lectures, there is always my alma mater to go to." Sang Li felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for taking care of me that year, you would definitely be able to stay in Shanghai, but I caused you to miss the chance to give a trial lecture..." "It has nothing to do with you, Xiaoli," Nan Yang interrupted her: "I like my alma mater very much, and my alma mater treats me well, both in terms of professional title and material treatment, and there is almost no pressure in life. It’s much easier in Shanghai. Besides, it’s close to home, so if something happens, it’s easy to take care of.”

"Speaking of which, brother, you have been studying in college for ten years." Sang Li finally smiled: "Looking at your appearance when you were young, I never imagined that you would have such perseverance." "Yes," Nan Yang couldn't help but sighed with a smile: "A few days ago, I called my mother and said that I planned to enter the station to be a postdoctoral fellow, and my mother was frightened. She kept saying, son, you should hurry up." It’s better to marry a wife. I didn’t expect you to be admitted to university. You’re already doing well. If you go to school, you’ll be a fool. I spent a lot of effort and didn’t explain to her that “postdoctorate” is just an experience. rather than a degree."

Thinking of Nanyang's mother, Sang Li felt soft emotions in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, how are you?" "Okay," Nan Yang said with a helpless expression, "One call a day to urge me to get married, using all the relationship between her and my dad in the provincial capital to introduce me to a girlfriend, I can't wait for me to go on a blind date every day. You say what about me? My classmates who work in Beijing and Shanghai are still single, so why am I so anxious!" "It's a pity that except for Gu Xiaoying, I don't have any contact with my college classmates. In fact, there were some very good girls at that time." Sang Li sighed, and frowned: "I don't seem to know anyone here now." Nan Yang looked at Sang Li in amazement, and then had a frightened expression on his face: "No way, Xiao Li, you do this kind of thing too? Let me tell you, I bought an evening ticket, and I don't have time to deal with you guys! " Sang Li smiled: "Brother, why are you in such a hurry, I still plan to invite you to my restaurant for dinner, and I have hired a new catering chef, whose skills are very good." Nan Yang finally heaved a sigh of relief, feeling relieved: "It scared me, I thought I hadn't seen you for three years, and you hit me like this as soon as we met, it's really cruel." Only then did he explain: "As soon as I heard about you, I immediately booked a plane ticket to come here. I wanted to see if the Sangli they found was the Sangli I was looking for. On the way here, I received a A phone call from the department, saying that the public class scheduled for Wednesday has been brought forward to Monday, so I have to go back earlier to prepare the class.” Sang Li nodded, looked into his eyes, and said slowly, "Brother, actually, I've always wanted to contact you, but I just didn't have the courage." Nan Yang didn't speak, just looked into her eyes, after so many years, she was still so beautiful with clear eyes. She said: "Brother, I miss you very much. Really, I can bear to leave you, but I can't bear to miss you. It has been three years, and I have worked hard to survive. Although it is still a bit like a walking dead, at least, without knowing it From the looks of it, people will think that I look pretty good.” She sighed slightly: "When I am lonely, when I am lonely, I will always think of you. I just realized that after all these years, you are really my brother. You have nothing to do with blood, but you will always be by my side." She looked at him and said softly, "brother, thank you." Nan Yang looked into her eyes and was speechless just like that. For a while, the only sound in the room was singing from the stereo: Ah, people call me Mimi, but my name is Rukia.My life experience is very simple, embroidered with a hundred flowers competing for beauty.Life is peaceful and happy, and I am accompanied by roses and lilies all day long. The flowers are beautiful and delicate. Using the silent language, tell me about love and bright spring, and describe the wonderful fairyland and dreams.How touching is this poetry and painting, you can hear... "La Bohème", "Madame Butterfly", "Turandot", "Magic Flute"... These famous arias were once Sang Li's homework, and they were all of Sang Li's happiness. But Nan Yang finally stood up, found the remote control and pressed the stop button, the music stopped abruptly, and the room was eerily quiet. He walked up to Sang Li and squatted down gently.He looked up and could see the starlight in Sang Li's eyes.They looked at each other quietly, the morning sunlight poured in along the floor-to-ceiling windows with golden luster, Nan Yang finally stretched out his hand and gently held Sang Li's hand. Her hands are so cold, it was the same way before, it is cold all year round. So, the first gift he gave her was a small hand warmer, and he still remembered her surprise at that time, happy as a sunflower. However, in the blink of an eye, it will be almost ten years. He was a little hesitant, but he couldn't bear to ask her: "Xiao Li, are you... still singing?" Sang Li let him hold her hand and smiled: "Occasionally, I'd still sing to myself." Nan Yang's voice was a little hoarse: "But it's such a pity, Xiaoli. You are the most talented singer I have ever seen. You should be born to sing on stage." "Natural?" Sang Li still smiled, but that smile was strange and desolate: "Nothing is natural. Nan Yang, we have to exchange something else for what we want." As she spoke, she pulled her hand out of Nan Yang's hand, and gently stroked Nan Yang's eyebrows and eyes. Her voice was strangely gentle: "Nan Yang, did I tell you that I don't like men with double eyelids the least?" child." Nan Yang's heart was still very heavy, but he couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "You have said it many times, and every time you use this as an excuse, I also thought about how to cut double eyelids into single eyelids." "But later, all the men I met had double eyelids," she said with a desolate smile, "I have a hard life, I can't hurt you, and you shouldn't come." Nan Yang suddenly became angry: "Nonsense, Xiang Ning—" Before he finished speaking, she suddenly stretched out a hand to cover his mouth, and blocked the remaining half of the words.Her expression became a little severe: "Nan Yang!" Nan Yang obediently kept his mouth shut. The air seemed to be a little stagnant, but at this moment, the doorbell rang, and both of them looked at the door as if they were relieved.Sang Li walked over to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, YOYO jumped in like a colorful butterfly: "Sang Li!" The little girl's crisp voice resounded in the room in the morning, and warm emotions rushed out.Sang Li subconsciously began to smile: "Where's your father?" "dad!" YOYO shouted at the top of his voice, only to see Ma Yu follow in helplessly, and sighed as he walked: "YOYO, Auntie hasn't invited you in yet." This morning suddenly became lively. YOYO saw Nan Yang immediately after entering the room, and was very curious: "Who are you?" Nan Yang looked at Sang Li wonderingly, then at Ma Yu, and found that Ma Yu also had a surprised expression on his face.Sang Li stood behind a group of people with a calm expression. "Let me introduce: Ma Yu, my neighbor; YOYO, Ma Yu's daughter; Nan Yang, my neighbor when I was young." The words are concise and concise, without any more modifiers. The two men said "Oh" at the same time, and at the same time stretched out their hands and said, "Hello." In my heart, I was thinking at the same time: So they are all neighbors... What a weird coincidence.
