When Du Xiaoxian walked back slowly, what he thought in his heart was this sentence: everything is over.

Seeing is believing, everything is a foregone conclusion, she should leave.

She took a deep breath, inadvertently sucked the cold air into the trachea, stood by the side of the street and coughed embarrassingly, until tears fell down.She felt that she was so useless that she could shed tears even when she coughed.But her heart seemed to be relieved, the matter that had been hesitating for a long time was finally settled, and she didn't have to think about it anymore.

Standing on the street and calling Du Huayue, it rang for a long time before answering. Du Huayue's sleepy voice came from the other end of the phone: "Xiaoxian, why is it so early?"

Du Xiaoxian said apologetically, "Brother A Yue, you were on duty again last night, so I'll call you later."

"It's okay, I'm about to get up too, just tell me," Du Huayue rubbed his eyes, and sat up from the quilt. Du Xiaoxian rarely took the initiative to call him. It's still so early, there must be something wrong.

"I just want to ask if you have rented the house yet?" Du Xiaoxian said, "I'll make preparations early."

"I'm about to call you about this," Du Huayue said, "I've been watching it every day, and there's nothing suitable, either it's too expensive or it's too far away, why don't you go with me today, I've made two more appointments today Home, you should go and have a look and make up your mind."

"Then," Du Xiaoxian said, "I'll go find you right now."

Du Huayue said good, and jumped out of bed after hanging up the phone. He was from a military background, and it took only 5 minutes to get dressed and wash.Since he was going to two places and it was difficult to transfer, he borrowed a bicycle.

As soon as he pushed out the gate, he saw a baked sweet potato seller on the street. He remembered that Du Xiaoxian liked to eat this. When she was young, she often had a blank face and no expression, but squatted in front of his earthen stove to bake sweet potatoes When she was young, her eyes were shining. While adding firewood, she fiddled with the sweet potatoes in the fire, turning them over for fear they would burn.It often makes her face dirty, which makes him feel funny. Sometimes he will deliberately tease her, adding two black marks on her face, and scolds him when grandma sees it, but Du Xiaoxian doesn't care, she Just a foolish smile, when the aroma overflowed and Grandma said yes, Du Xiaoxian was very happy, and couldn't wait to use the tongs to pick out the roasted sweet potatoes one by one and throw them on the ground.Then distribute them in order from largest to smallest, every time she assigns herself the smallest one, but he always changes with her and gives her the bigger one, but Du Xiaoxian refuses, always blushing and thanking her, holding her head down. Her roasted sweet potatoes went back to her home.

The little girl has grown up and changed a lot, but he believes that no matter how much Du Xiaoxian changes, he will never forget his roots, so he bought two roasted sweet potatoes and put them in the canvas satchel without hesitation. Du Xiaoxian must have not eaten them so early Breakfast, when we meet, they eat together.

Du Huayue's guess was right, Du Xiaoxian was really happy to see the roasted sweet potatoes, and while blowing, he couldn't wait to peel off the skin of the sweet potatoes. It was like returning to childhood. Du Huayue looked at her and smiled comfortably. Yes, they sat on a bench by the street, eating and talking.

"Xiaoxian, have you thought about it, are you really leaving him?"

"Well," Du Xiaoxian nodded slowly: "Brother A Yue, you are right, he and I are people from two worlds, it is not suitable for us to be together."

Du Huayue took a careful look at her: "Are you willing?"

Du Xiaoxian lowered his eyes, peeling the sweet potato bit by bit, but his eyes gradually turned red, Du Huayue's heart twitched, he turned his face away, as if with some emotion: "Okay, I won't ask any more."

There are two houses to see today, one is in the suburbs and the other is in the city. Du Huayue thought for a while and said, "Xiaoxian, why don't we go to see the one in the suburbs, it's too far away convenient."

Du Xiaoxian had no objection anyway: "Brother A Yue, I'll listen to you."

After arriving at the place, Du Xiaoxian discovered that this was the community where Nina used to live.I heard that it is about to be demolished, so the rent is also cheap.

The two-bedroom house is also clean inside, with all the furniture and appliances, and looks very nice.Du Huayue pulled Du Xiaoxian aside, and said in a low voice, "Let's forget it, when the time comes to demolish and move, it's troublesome."

The intermediary's ears were sharp, and when he heard a sentence, he immediately said: "It's not necessarily true. The demolition has been talked about for several years, and it hasn't been moved yet. It must be another gust of wind. Let it blow. The rent of such a good house is low. It’s cheap, there’s no property fee, the water and electricity bills are also cheaper than ordinary communities, the transportation is convenient, and the rent can be paid once a month, which is pretty good.”

Du Xiaoxian also thought it was a good place, and said, "Why don't you just stay here, sister Nina lived here before, I think it's pretty good."

Now that Du Xiaoxian opened his mouth, Du Huayue agreed after thinking about it. Anyway, he wanted to move, and it was better to move early than late, so he handed over the deposit and took the key on the spot.

As soon as the agent left, Du Huayue fell down on the sofa and said happily, "I didn't expect it to be done so smoothly. If I knew it was like this, I should have asked you to look at the house together."

Du Xiaoxian looked around and said, "There's nothing to add, just bring the luggage over here."

Du Huayue sat up straight and asked her, "When are you moving here? I'll pick you up."

Du Xiaoxian sat down, rubbed her fingers, and said nothing for a while, she must leave, but this time, she didn't want to leave without saying goodbye, she wanted to make it clear to Gu Nianbin, she neither hated him nor blamed him, she only wanted him Just be happy.

"Tomorrow," Du Xiaoxian said, "I'll call you tomorrow."

"Okay," Du Huayue comforted her: "Xiaoxian, I know you are reluctant, but short-term pain is worse than long-term pain. Everything will pass."

"I know," Du Xiaoxian sighed, "I was wrong."

Du Huayue looked at her, and asked suspiciously: "Xiaoxian, you suddenly figured it out, did something happen?"

Du Xiaoxian shook his head, his voice was very calm: "It's nothing, I figured it out myself." Only in this way, the pain of three people will become the pain of one person.

After having lunch with Du Huayue outside, Du Xiaoxian returned home and began to pack her luggage. She didn't have much luggage. She only took some change of clothes and toiletries, which just filled a backpack.

She sat on the bed, looked at the glazed vase, and wanted to take it away, but it was too expensive and fragile, and she knew in her heart that she couldn't take it away.She bought it when she first moved in, and it seems to have become a habit to look at it every day, but such a habit is a luxury, and it is impossible for her to have it again in her future life.The bottles and jars on the dressing table are colorful and fragrant. She usually doesn't use them very often, and occasionally she will run to smell the fragrance for Gu Nianbin after wiping a little on.As a result, Gu Nianbin took this as some sort of hint, and grabbed her to eat without saying a word.It made her dumbfounded.She didn't take any of these things with her, because they no longer belonged to her world.

She got up and went to the studio again. There were some paintings piled up on the wall, which she had driven out a few days ago. She wanted to get as many as possible before leaving, and let Teacher He pick them out, but she didn't even expect to leave so quickly quick.She knelt down and stroked the oil paint on the drawing board. The bright red and oily green are so beautiful.

In fact, she was about to leave, and there was no point in opening the art exhibition. She just felt that she had let Teacher He down. She went to various galleries to lobby hard, and finally got it done. She suddenly couldn't speak, so what should Teacher He do?She can't do it.

Sighing, she stood up, went to the window and called Teacher He Sen, telling him that she was going on a long trip, and asked him to take away all the paintings first, and entrusted him with full authority over the opening of the exhibition.Say some more words of thanks.

He Sen was a little worried when he heard that her voice was not right, and asked if something happened to her?
Du Xiaoxian said it was fine, but he might not be able to make it back when the art exhibition was held.

He Sen said that it was her art exhibition, if she wasn't there, what would happen, we should come back as soon as possible.

Du Xiaoxian actually didn't think about whether she wanted to go to the art exhibition that day, but He Sen spoke earnestly on the phone, and she couldn't refuse, she just muddled through.

After doing everything that should be done, the only thing left is to call Gu Nianbin.Du Xiaoxian looked at the phone in his hand, did not hesitate for long, and finally pressed the number.

The other end quickly answered, Du Xiaoxian coughed lightly, and was about to speak, but Xia Xiaowan's voice came from the phone: "It's Xiaoxian, do you have anything to do with Nian Bin?"

Du Xiaoxian suddenly felt that the blood in his whole body was congealed, why did Xia Xiaowan always pick up the call?Could it be that they are really good enough to be like glue?Can't be separated for a moment?

Du Xiaoxian seemed a little dizzy, she stroked her forehead, and settled herself: "Miss Xia, is the young master there? I want to find him."

"What do you want from him? Can I convey it for you?"

Du Xiaoxian was silent, did Xia Xiaowan mean that she didn't want her to talk to Gu Nianbin?

Xia Xiaowan chuckled on the other end of the phone and said, "Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want you to talk to him, it's that brother Nian Bin doesn't want to answer your call. Besides, he wants me to bring you something. I'm still hesitating when to call you, but I didn't expect you to call first, so let's meet, some things are better said in person."

Although he was mentally prepared, Du Xiaoxian still didn't expect that Gu Nianbin would not even talk to her. She must have hurt his heart, because she was not brave enough, and she was always wavering.Therefore, he was impatient, and simply out of sight and out of mind.

"Okay," Du Xiaoxian said, "I'll wait for you at home."

"No, it's better for us to meet outside," Xia Xiaowan said, "How about finding a quiet coffee shop for a cup of coffee?"

"Okay," Du Xiaoxian didn't care anyway, at this point, she didn't care about anything, "You send the address to my mobile phone, and I'll take a taxi there."

It seems that it's not that she wants to make it clear to Gu Nianbin, it's that Gu Nianbin wants to make it clear to her.Well, Du Xiaoxian originally thought it would be difficult for her to speak, but if it was Gu Nianbin who spoke, it would be much easier, she just needs to accept it.
