The next day, the two slept until noon, and hurriedly washed after getting up.

Yao Lu first called Yao's mother to explain the situation, and then comforted her. Then, Lin Shen drove Yao Lu back to the Tuanjie community.

"Lulu..." Lin Shen sat in the car, took Yao Lu's hand, and asked, "Do you want me to go up with you? I want to... apologize to my mother and auntie, and for what I did to your whole family back then. Apologies for the harm caused.”

"Don't wait." Yao Lu whispered, "My mother is emotionally unstable now, I don't want to tell her about you and me for now... I will confess when my father's situation improves and I find a more suitable opportunity. OK?"

"Oh..." Lin Shen nodded.

"Lin Shen, are you not angry?" Yao Lu held Lin Shen's hand back, and said, "I, I will definitely say, I promise! I won't keep sneaking around with you, don't be angry, okay?"

"No, Lulu." Lin Shen smiled handsomely, and said, "How can I be so narrow-minded! Even if you keep silent, I won't be angry, those are just formalities, as long as you are mine."

Yao Lu was a little shy, and whispered: "Isn't it already?"

"Totally!" Lin Shen emphasized, and then warned: "Don't talk about words with me! You know what I'm talking about."

"Okay, I know..." Yao Lu said, "I'm going down now. My mother is alone at home, so I'm worried."

"Go ahead and call." Lin Shen said.

Afterwards, Yao Lu opened the door and got out of the car, and walked away step by step.

Lin Shen kept looking at Yao Lu until he disappeared from his sight.

At that moment, he seemed to travel back to the old time eight years ago. The young Yao Lu pushed his bicycle, with red eyes, just like now, stepping back and forth into the community.

Good deer... It is the greatest luck in my life that you can come back!

In the afternoon of the same day, Yao Lu took Yao's mother into the ICU and visited Yao's father.

Although unconscious, the mother and son stood by, crying and talking to Father Yao, but he reacted, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes.

More than 20 days later, less than two weeks before the Spring Festival, Yao Lu's father had never fought against the god of death, and passed away in a coma, not surviving this year.

As a friend, Lin Shen participated in the whole process of planning Father Yao's funeral.

In fact, most of the things are arranged by him.Yao Lu has been away from his hometown for many years, and he is not familiar with the local burial customs in his hometown. Lin Shen arranged the funeral in every detail without any omission.

After being placed in the hospital mortuary for two days, Yao's father's body was sent to the funeral parlor for relatives and friends to pay their respects to, and then cremated immediately.

At the final farewell, all the relatives and friends who were present formed a circle and passed in front of Father Yao's body one by one to bid him a final farewell.

Some people sighed, some wept softly, and some cried bitterly...

According to the local custom, simple operation and simple operation, Yao Lu did not criticize filial piety, just wearing a white headband, wearing all black clothes, wearing filial piety on his arm, and standing aside with red eyes.

Mother Yao was supported and sat aside.Her tears had already dried up, and she looked at her husband numbly, lying quietly in the crystal coffin of the funeral home.

At the end of the visit, the staff of the funeral home began to perform the last ceremony, opening the five senses of the deceased, and then the deceased will be sent to cremation.

The staff opened the crystal coffin, and Yao's mother stood up, and Yao Lu's mood fluctuated.Trembling, he took a step forward, staring at his father who was peacefully lying in the crystal coffin.

"Open your eyes—! May the deceased see Huangquan Road clearly, and don't look back on Huangquan Road—!"

While reciting aloud, the staff wiped Father Yao's closed eyes with a clean cloth dipped in wine.

"Two open ears—! May the deceased hear Po Meng's words, cross the bridge of Naihe and enter reincarnation—!"

Thinking of this, Yao Lu collapsed in an instant.

From the day Yao's father left, Yao Lu actually lived every day like a dream.

Although Yao Lu has accepted the fact that his father died on the surface, subconsciously, he still feels that his father is by his side and everything is just a dream.

For the past few days, Yao Lu has been in a trance, sometimes sober and sometimes confused, but at this moment, the unreal voice and operation of the staff suddenly made him realize clearly: his father!Yao Gang!Gone from him forever and ever!He will never be able to see his father again!

Yao Lu burst into tears, and suddenly his legs went limp, and soon he was about to collapse on the ground. Lin Shen, who was staring at him, strode forward, picked him up, dragged him by the waist, and said in a low voice: "Hold on!" !do not do that!"

Yao Lu's head was buzzing. He couldn't hear what the staff shouted. He could only vaguely see that the staff wiped his father's nose, mouth, and forehead again. After that, Yao's father's body was pulled To cremate.

The crematorium is the front line in the face of death.Here, you can truly feel the force majeure of death and the natural law that everything in the world has an end.

For example, Father Yao, with a wisp of green smoke, instantly turned into a handful of white ash, and then ashes to ashes, and dust to dust.

After the funeral, Yao Lu and Xu Ze took a few days off to stay with Yao's mother at home.

Mother Yao's mood has become much more stable.Maybe it was because Yao's father had been in a coma for more than 20 days in the ICU. The mother and son had already prepared themselves. Except for the funeral parlor's collapse that day, they had calmly accepted the fact that their loved one passed away.

Yao Lu is going to work tomorrow, he has already asked for too many days off.Not only did Xu Ze not complain or be dissatisfied, but he also encouraged him to spend more time with his mother, and comforted him that Xiaotian was there to support him at the company, reassuring him.

Yao Lu felt very guilty, he knew that a large part of this was due to Lin Shen.However, the brotherhood between Lin Shen and Xu Ze is a matter between the two of them. After receiving Xu Ze's salary, he has to do his best, so he decided that he must return to work tomorrow.

"Lu Lu, Mom asked you something." During lunch, Yao's mother asked.

"What's the matter?" Yao Lu asked after swallowing the food in his mouth.

"Hmm..." Putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Yao's mother thought for a while and asked, "The man who helped us organize your father's funeral, you said it was your friend Xiao Lin, what's his... what's his full name?"

Yao Lu's body froze when he heard this, he held up his chopsticks and stopped in the air, hesitating for a moment, then whispered: "Full name, Lin Shen..."

Mother Yao: "..."

"He... is Lin Shen?" Yao's mother had doubts for a long time, and then asked politely: "You and him, um...reconnected again?"

"Yes, Mom." Yao Lu simply put down his chopsticks, and said in a deep voice, "I met him by chance at the class reunion last year, and we have been in touch since then."

"You..." Mother Yao said with difficulty, "Now, the relationship is very good? Are you good friends?"

"The relationship is pretty good..." Yao Lu whispered, then lowered his head and said, "Not just good friends."

"Lulu, you..." Mother Yao hesitated, "Do you...don't like girls?"

Yao Lu looked up at his mother, pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer.

Mother Yao said calmly, "It's okay, to be honest, Mom doesn't blame you."

After a long time, Yao Lu nodded slightly.

"Actually, your father and I..." Yao's mother thought for a while, and said slowly: "We knew about it early on, but we didn't want to accept it, so we pretended not to know. Your father...had mentioned it to me a few times before, He wanted me to let go, but I refused. Thinking about it now, he still loves you more than me. "

"Mom, don't say that!" Yao Lu choked with red eyes and said, "You and Dad love me both!"

"It hurts in a different way. I was too harsh on you." Mother Yao sighed, "After your father left, I figured out a lot of things. Especially at the crematorium that day, I saw those who died , It turned into a handful of ashes in an instant, I was thinking, this person, being alive is the greatest! Being able to live happily is the best!"

"Over the years, you have been unhappy, mom knows." Yao's mother said this, her eyes were red, and she tremblingly said: "You are not interested in anything except work, you have no goals, no goals, mom can do everything. I feel it, and I know why you are. But, I still can't get over this hurdle, so I'm just like your dad, and I've been dragging you."

"It's not what it used to be..." Yao's mother wiped her tears and said, "Your father is gone, and I have become a person. I don't want my only son, and I want to be alone all my life. You... understand me." mean?"

"Well! I understand! Mom!" Yao Lu cried.

"Don't cry!" Mother Yao said softly, "How many times have you cried these days, your eyes will be broken."

Yao Lu wiped away his tears and said "Mmm".

"That little Lin is Lin Shen..." Yao's mother took a deep breath, and said with emotion, "Walking around and coming back again, this whole life..."

Yao's mother sighed and said: "Mom doesn't know him, but if you two can meet again and make friends again, it means that the fate is not over."You can figure it out for yourself, if you think others are okay, you...you can decide for yourself, don't worry about what mom thinks, mom actually has no idea either. "

"Mom..." Yao Lu hugged Yao's mother and burst into tears.

Eight years!He has walked this road for eight years!

Back then when he was ignorant, he and Lin Shen met and fell in love with each other when they were young classmates. At that time, he never imagined that this road would be so bumpy!So hard!

Fortunately, he finally survived until the day when the clouds and mist were cleared to see the sun.I just don't know how many people are still on this road, overcoming obstacles and scars!

The next day, Yao Lu officially resumed work.

"Ah? What?" Lin Shen came to Xu Ze's company again to grab a work meal. After hearing Yao Lu's words, his jaw almost dropped, his mouth was wide open, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Ah shit!" Xu Ze mocked, "Your little Lu Lu said that his mother asked you to come home for dinner on Friday! Don't you understand Chinese?"

"Lulu, is it true?" Lin Shen was so excited that he could speak incoherently, and asked, "Why? What to eat? No way! Does your mother want to punish me in your house and then cut me off?"

Yao Lu smiled and said, "Why cut you? I just told you to eat! Literally, don't think too much about it."

"Why—?" Lin Shen asked in a long voice like a mentally handicapped person.

"I think you're the one with no brains!" Xu Ze sarcastically said, "The zombie didn't even want to open the lid when he saw you, so he just left - you just have no brains! Why, why! His mother agreed, You idiot!"

"Really—?" Lin Shen asked with a long voice.

"Well, really!" Yao Lu laughed, "My mother said that I can decide for myself, she has no objection, and also said that if she thinks you are okay, she can be with you, um..."

"Of course I can do it!" Lin Shen said domineeringly, and immediately asked Yao Lu: "What can I do with you? Is it the right person? Then will you stay with me? Will you stay with me?"

Yao Lu glanced at Xu Ze, blushed and said in a low voice, "Aren't you here, why don't you ask!"

"Oh! Lulu!" Lin Shen hurriedly hugged Yao Lu, slapped Yao Lu on the face, and said with a happy smile, "I love you so much! My wife!"

Xu Ze couldn't bear to look directly at the side, and shouted: "Fuck! Lin Shen! Pay attention to the influence! This is in the company! Also, can you consider the feelings of a straight man like me?"

"Who cares about your feelings!" Lin Shen mocked.

"I, I'm going to throw out the garbage." Yao Lu wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in, quickly rolled up the lunch box with newspaper, and fled in a hurry.

Lin Shen looked at Yao Lu's back like a nympho.

Seeing Yao Lu go out, Xu Ze whispered, "Ah, ah, don't look, I'm asking you something!"

Lin Shen shook his legs happily, and asked leisurely, "What's the matter?"

"You call him wife, uh..." Xu Ze hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you hitting home plate? Are you a husband? Is he a wife?"

Hearing this, Lin Shen blushed, and said, "No! You don't know what the other day was? Also, isn't what you are asking nonsense? You have known me for so many years, how many years do I have?" Pure, don't you know?"

"I know, I know!" Xu Ze laughed "hehehe" a few times, and said wretchedly, "I'm not curious. It's really interesting that you guys are divided up and down, ahahaha——!"

"Look at your obscene smile!" Lin Shen gave Xu Ze a disgusted look.

"Ah, ah, I haven't finished asking!" Xu Ze lowered his voice and asked, "You guys, will it be the other way around? Then if your little Lulu thinks about it, uh...you understand?"

"Absolutely impossible! Don't even think about it!" Lin Shen said coldly.

"Oh..." Xu Ze nodded.

At this moment, Yao Lu came back. Seeing the two people face to face, very close to each other, he was stunned for a moment, then coughed, and asked, "Do you have something to say? Then I, shall I go out first?"

"Lulu!" Lin Shen quickly stood up and said, "Don't go, I haven't finished talking to you yet."

Xu Ze sat on the sofa, his expression fluttering, and he didn't know what was going on in his head.
