Every time she cried, the boy would stand aside with a cold face, watching Lu Zhizhou running over like an old mother, coaxing him with jelly and fudge for a while.

But Lu Zhizhou is not always there.

Once, Lu Zhizhou followed Lu's mother out. In the middle of summer, it was very hot in the afternoon. The two of them started arguing again for some reason. Meng Yingning sat in the yard and ignored him.

That year she was in junior high school and no longer cried. She didn't say anything when she got angry. She looked red and shrank everywhere, and she looked pitiful and seemed to be suffering a huge grievance.

Chen Wang didn't spoil her and went straight home, leaving people there.

As a result, Meng Yingning really stopped moving.

Half an hour later, Chen Wang went to the window to take a look. She squatted under the shade of the tree and refused to go home.

Half an hour later, I haven't returned home yet.

In the afternoon, the sun was roasting the air and it was melting, and the cicadas were chirping.

The young man Chen Wang was so angry that he went downstairs. When he got closer, he saw clearly that the girl was holding a thin branch in her hand and painting on the ground.

A whole row of turtles was drawn, and two words were written on each of them - Chen Wang.

Chen Wang: "..."

Chen Wang smiled angrily and squatted in front of her: "What are you doing with me if you don't go home? I'm not Lu Zhizhou, you're drying here, can I still spoil you?"

Xiao Yingning raised her eyes, glanced at him, and said softly: "I didn't bring a key."

Chen Wang: "..."

Chen Wang looked at the time, and it took Meng’s father and mother to get off work for four or five hours.

He stood up and looked at her condescendingly: "Go to my house and wait."

Xiao Yingning ignored him.

Chen Wang was impatient: "Can you leave?"

Xiao Yingning said slowly: "This person just quarreled with me and got angry at me. I don't really want to go to his house."

Her throat was a little hoarse.

Chen Wang: "Do you go?"

Xiao Yingning didn't raise her head.

The boy sneered: "You won't leave, are you?"

Meng Yingning still ignored him.

In fact, she is not like others, she just follows him, and doesn't know what. She always grits her teeth and makes her stubborn.

The boy stopped talking and just stood in front of her.

After a long time, Chen Wang took a deep breath, squatted down again, looking at the tip of her head: "You..."

Meng Yingning didn't look up, but her ears moved.

Then, she heard the boy whispering hard, "Do you eat apple pie?"

Xiao Yingning swallowed his throat dryly.

She looked up and said, "Are you trying to make peace with me?"

Chen Wang: "..."

Meng Yingning persevered: "Is that true?"

“…”

Xiao Yingning tilted her head and looked at him persistently: "Is that right?"

“…”

Chen Wang looked cold: "Ah."

Meng Yingning lowered her head again and slowly used the small branches to mark the row of turtles that had just been drawn. While shaping, she whispered: "Then let's make up."

The sun was too big, and when she lowered her head, Chen Wang saw that the tips of her ears exposed outside were red with hot heat.

He stared at it for a while and moved away: "Will you eat it?"

“Eat.”

Meng Yingning said with red ears: "I want to eat."

...

At that time, I was childish and willful. If I couldn't say three words, I would start to be unhappy at all. When I got awkward, I had to breathe a hard time, just as if I would lose if anyone gave in to whom I first.

I didn't think that sentence was said very vividly.

It was not until many years later that Meng Yingning suddenly felt it.

That was already the gentlest compromise that the boy could say at that time.

The rain decreased after a thirty-minute drive, and the drizzled people's eardrums were knocking regularly. When the car stopped, Meng Yingning almost fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, it was dark outside, and the rain seemed to be endless. In front of me was a very strange residential building in the community.

Meng Yingning sat up, looked around, and took more than ten seconds to react.

She raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, turned her head, and was just confused and about to fall asleep. Her voice was a little hoarse and she was confused: "Where are we going?"

Chen Wang stopped the car, turned off the engine, lowered his head and untied his seat belt, and said calmly: "My home."
