78

There are two rooms and one living room in that house, and no flowers can be seen even if you look at it again.

The woman who asked the question said "oh", thought for a while and said, "I'll think about it, and I'll give you an answer later."

Shen Xin nodded her head, and after the person went out, she put the overturned photo frame back to its original position. After closing the door and going downstairs, the figure of the person who had just inspected the house was nowhere to be found.

An old man was sitting on a rattan chair downstairs with his legs crossed, holding a sunflower fan and beating the beat on his legs every now and then.

Shen Xin was brooding over it, bent down and asked, "Grandpa, did you see the person who just came downstairs?"

The old man said "ah" at the top of his throat, as if he didn't hear clearly, he turned his head and looked at her, and said, "What did you say?"

Shen Xin had no choice but to ask again loudly, while looking up into the distance.

"Oh, the daughter-in-law of the Chen family is gone." The old man said.

Shen Xin raised her eyebrows and described the woman's clothes. The old man was impatient and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's her. Her house is not here. I don't know who to look for here."

It was indeed a local, the woman didn't fool her, it just sounded like she really didn't need to rent a house.

Shen Xin clicked on that person to chat on the app, and asked when she would reply, so that she could clean the house earlier.

As soon as she sent the message, the status over there showed that she was typing, but it took a long time to type, as if she was writing a composition.

In the end, the number of words sent was not even half of the elementary school composition. It was just a short line: "Sorry, I want to see another house."

Shen Xin had a hunch that there was something wrong with this person, and she was in a hurry to see the room, but she didn't ask any questions when she entered the door, and only took a quick glance.

The houses in the old street are very old. Although the decoration is not as good as that in the new street, but there is everything you want in the house, and the price is cheap. It is really difficult to find another house with such a complete set of things.

Could it be because I saw Lu Wenqi's photo?

Shen Xin shook her head, looked at the time and there were still two classes left, she went back to school without thinking much, and sent a message to Lu Nian on the way: "Someone came to see the house, he seemed dissatisfied, after a few glances, he left. "

Lu Nian: "Yes."

"Where are you?" Shen Xin asked again.

Lu Nian sent a location, which is the location of a stop sign on the road.

Shen Xin noticed that Lu Nian's profile picture suddenly changed, it was white, and there seemed to be some lines on it.After clicking on Lu Nian's personal information and zooming in on the profile picture, Shen Xin saw clearly that it turned out to be a hand drawn on a white paper.

The lines in the painting are smooth and graceful, and the five fingers of the hand are slender, even the half moon on the nails has been drawn.The fingers are slightly bent, and there is a not so obvious mole on the side of the index finger near the thumb.

Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, her eyes drooped and she looked at her hand holding the phone. She moved her index finger away a little, and she really saw a mole.

She is very clear about the origin of this mole. It was pricked when she touched a cactus before, but the thorn was not picked out, and it grew like this over time.

Shen Xin smiled, then typed and sent it: "The head portrait is pretty, did you draw it yourself? How come I never knew you had this talent."

[Drawing blindly. 】

"If you draw blindly, can I say that I dance blindly?" Shen Xin typed.

[I just learned a little bit. 】

"When did you learn it?" Shen Xin was curious.

Lu Nian was silent for a long time, and only replied after a few minutes.

[In the past, she wanted to send me to learn calligraphy, but I went next door to learn painting. 】

Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized who this "she" was referring to.Now when Lu Nian mentions Lu Wenzhang, he doesn't even mention his name, he just refers to him casually.

She wanted to laugh when she heard this, but she also felt that Lu Nian should have been like this when she was a child.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have developed such an extremely stubborn temper.

She thought about it, and suddenly felt that Lu Wenyi should have been nice to Lu Nian before.

Speaking of this, even though Shen Xin didn't ask, she had already given enough hints, it would be difficult for Lu Nian not to understand the mystery behind these words.

After a while, Lu Nian sent a message saying: "The painting is your hand."

Like a lamb running into a pack of wolves in a hurry, it has been thrown into a net.

"My hands are so pretty?" Shen Xin asked.

[I can draw well. 】

Shen Xin: "What are you denying? You are just coveting your sister Chen's beautiful hands."

【…】

Shen Xin clicked a photo on her hand, and sent it to Lu Nian without hesitation, and said, "Think about others when you see things."

【……it is good. 】

After Shen Xin finished posting, she urged Lu Nian to continue to squint for a while, drink more hot water, and not to be hungry. After finishing speaking, she put the phone away very restrainedly, lest she couldn't help but continue to harass the children.

When I got back to school and it was the end of get out of class, the sound of the basketball hitting the ground went directly over the wall to the outside, and the cheers in the playground were one after another.

Shen Xin climbed over the wall, and the moment she fell down and turned around, she suddenly realized the hardships of life.

This may be the pain of being a famous person on campus. As soon as she climbed over the wall and turned around, she saw that all the juniors on the playground stopped their movements and looked at her one after another.

Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, her eyes drooped, and she felt a little relieved when she saw that she was wearing pants instead of a skirt.

She was just wondering what is so interesting about climbing over the wall. After all, there are countless people in school who climbed over the wall to go out for supper and surf the Internet. Three seconds later, there was applause on the playground and someone whistled.

Shen Xin: ...

Yes, the juniors and juniors congratulated her on successfully climbing the wall, and the congratulations probably reached the teacher's office, otherwise Fang Ran wouldn't have found her when she just returned to the classroom.

Under the gaze of the school committee, Shen Xin followed Fang Ran to the office with a cold face, only to see Fang Ran sit on the chair, and then raised his hand to push his slid glasses.

"My attitude towards all students has always been the same." Fang Ran said.

She spoke very bluntly. At the beginning, she directly expressed her homeroom teacher's position and her dissatisfaction with Shen Xin's recent behavior.

Shen Xin suddenly remembered that this should be Fang Ran's first class in Z.

I have to say that Fang Ran is really responsible. During this period of time, the naked eye can see that he has worn down a lot, and the frequency of going to the classroom is also higher.

"As the head teacher, I hope you are well." After Fang Ran finished speaking, he lifted his glasses again, pursed his lips and looked directly at Shen Xin.

Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, only then realized that Fang Ran didn't smile, a person who was always very gentle, for the first time became cold, instead of just putting on airs.

She could see that Fang Ran was serious and there was no room for negotiation.

Fang Ran was waiting for an answer, and looked at her without blinking.

Shen Xin responded in a low voice, suddenly felt that the third year of high school was really coming, and the arrival so unexpectedly caused the things and people around her to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Immediately afterwards, the college entrance examination will also follow the cicadas, and the bifurcation between the two will also appear in this fog.

She was suddenly a little confused, as if she couldn't figure out the north.

The kid is still on his way to X city, if the competition is over, if he does well in the exam, he might be recommended, so what about her.

What about her?She still has to fumble in this fog.

The school committee was sitting in the classroom, and from the corner of the eye, she saw Shen Xin enter the door. As soon as she raised her head, she realized that this sister looked sleepy and lacked energy.

After Shen Xin sat back in her seat, the school committee turned sideways and asked quietly, "What did Fang Ran ask you for?"

Shen Xin glanced around, and found that even those who peeked at the manga in class had read the textbook, and all of them were still chanting, as if they were reciting.

She came back to her senses, and said: "I should work hard

The picture is strong. "

"Huh?" The school committee was dumbfounded.

Shen Xin took out the book, waved the school committee to turn it back, and said, "Don't disturb me to work hard."

The school committee's respect for Fang Ran was welling up in his heart at this very moment.

The days of the third year of high school were very boring, and I wished that one second could be broken into two seconds.

You can memorize books during your morning jog, you can stay in the classroom to do problems between classes, and you can even bring a notebook to read more on the playground during the exercise time between classes.

Under the scorching sun, students in the three grades were all doing exercises along the radio, and the principal shouted with a microphone: "Sprinkle the sweat of youth, and continue to struggle against the sun, boys."

Shen Xin waved her hands perfunctorily, feeling that the headmaster was really full of energy.

The seat next to her was empty, even if Lu Nian was not there, the people behind her would have vacated the seat.

Standing in front of him was the school committee. The school committee held a book in his hand, and glanced at it after every movement. Every second counted.

Shen Xin was infected by the tense atmosphere, she almost forgot the time during the past two days, if Yuan Zhou hadn't found it on her mobile phone, she really wouldn't have remembered that Lu Nian's rematch was over.

It happened to be recess time, and the call was a coincidence.

It's a pity that Yuan Zhou reported his sorrows but not his good news. After the call was connected, he took a deep breath and said cautiously: "My sister Lu hasn't left the examination room yet. I waited for half an hour and didn't see anyone. The phone also called." No way, I have already received two fines, have you contacted her yet?"

"What did you say?" Shen Xin was stunned, "Repeat?"

"Even if I can't get through to Sister Lu, I can't wait for her to come out." Yuan Zhou was so anxious that he couldn't speak clearly.

Shen Xin flipped through the chat records, she really looked for Lu Nian in the morning, and asked her if the stationery was ready, the kid replied quite quickly, it seemed that she had woken up early.

"How is it? Did you say anything?" Yuan Zhou asked.

"No." Shen Xin said, "I'll call her."

After she finished speaking, she hung up Yuan Zhou's phone and called Lu Nian. Sure enough, as Yuan Zhou said, she couldn't get through, and the user was prompted several times that the phone had been turned off.

She can understand that the computer has to be turned off for the exam, but the exam is over.

Yuan Zhou sent a message and asked, "Can I get through?"

Shen Xin replied with two words: "I can't."

After a while, Yuan Zhou sent a message: "Could it be that he was detained by the teacher?"

Shen Xin: ...

"You think she's just like you?"

Yuan Zhou was silent for a long time before replying: "Shall I look around?"

Shen Xin tapped on the phone screen: "Don't look for it anymore, do you think your Little Sister Lu is stupid?"

Of course Lu Nian is not stupid, maybe there is some delay.

Yuan Zhou had no choice but to find a parking space nearby, sent Lu Nian the location, and waited for another half an hour.

Half an hour later, no one came, and the message didn't come back, so he went to the examination room to check, and found the classroom according to the seating chart, but even the invigilator was gone.

When Shen Xin was in class, she couldn't hold back and took out her phone, she hid it under the table and typed quietly, and sent it to Lu Nian after typing.

[Xiao Niannian, be good, open the door, Sister Shen wants to come in. 】

Just as she was about to put the phone back after sending, the phone vibrated suddenly in her hand, and Lu Nian replied.

[I didn't go to the exam. 】

Shen Xin was dumbfounded, "Sick again?"

It took Lu Nian a while to reply: "No, I saw my mother."

Shen Xin was silent, and then heaved a sigh of relief, it's not just about being sick.

"She said Xu Yan knew about it." After a while, Lu Nian replied.

A line of small characters crashed into Shen Xin's sight, and her gaze seemed to be nailed to it.

Did Xu Yan know?Xu Yan knew something.

She was typing to ask a question, but Lu Nian replied again.

【Xu Yan

Knowing what happened to her before, I don't want her anymore. 】

Shen Xin suddenly remembered the woman who went to see the house, and always felt that this matter had something to do with her, so she asked, "How did Xu Yan know?"

She had just sent it when Lu Nian called.

Fortunately, the volume was muted before class, otherwise if the bell rang suddenly, the teacher in class would have to report the matter to Fang Ran, and she would be called to talk by Fang Ran again.

The call was cut off in less than three seconds, maybe because Lu Nian suddenly remembered that this time is not suitable for answering the phone.

Shen Xin raised her hand, and used everything to cause her stomachache. She hid her phone and stood up rustlingly, and ran to the bathroom at the end of the floor.

After closing the compartment door, she called Lu Nian back.

Lu Nian didn't speak for a long time, only heard a slight breathing sound, and after a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "I said that today's rematch, she must see me."

Shen Xin frowned, her forehead twitched, "How did Xu Yan know?"

"Xu Yan saw the photos of me and her together, and some photos of her life in Z town before, and she asked if I did it." Lu Nian paused for a moment, murmuring word by word. Repeat: "She questioned me."

Shen Xin didn't speak, she pushed open the door of the cubicle and stood by the window.

"I deny it," Lu Nian paused, "She cried loudly, saying that she has been with Xu Yan for the longest time, because I was completely ruined."

Shen Xin couldn't help cursing in a low voice, "You can't control this matter, and it's not your fault."

"Her diploma is fake, resume is fake, everything is fake, but she cried in front of me and Xu Yan said she was hypocritical." Lu Nian's voice was a little hoarse, but her tone was still flat, and she was silent for a while. Yes, said suddenly: "I said I also think she is hypocritical."

Chen Xin twitched her lips, feeling that this kid was really stubborn.

Lu Nian went on to say: "She paid Xu Zang a lot of money, Xu Zong let her go, Xu Zang's wife also let her go, she said she still has a little money saved over the years, she can give me the last bit out of love I don't want money."

"She also asked if you want to go together?" Shen Xin almost thought she heard it wrong.

"I'm not stupid." Lu Nian paused for a moment, and then said: "I said I'm going to take the college entrance examination, and let me go at this time, do you want me to apply for a few false certificates to deceive people?"

Shen Xin almost laughed angrily at Lu Nian's words, "And then."

"She left by herself." Lu Nian said calmly, "She didn't have cash on her, and the driver didn't accept mobile phone payments. I paid for her taxi to the station. I was afraid that she would be hungry on the way, so I bought her some food. of."

Shen Xin listened quietly and looked straight out of the window.

"She refuses to eat, saying that the street food is dirty." Lu Nian's voice trembled, and he managed to stabilize before saying, "She used to eat everything, but now she is like this, but she refuses to lower her quality of life. "

"Did she tell you anything?" Shen Xin asked.

Lu Nian was silent for a while, and said: "She didn't know how to smoke before, but she smoked a few cigarettes in succession before entering the station. The smoke was very fierce and the smell was very pungent. I stood a little far away and heard her say that and leave. , and then she really left."

Shen Xin didn't know what to say for a moment, she just silently listened to Lu Nian's soft and nasal voice.

"I think she really won't come back this time." Lu Nian said again after a while.

The relationship between the two is like a root of lotus root, there is only a bit of blood relationship sticking together, if one wants to leave, the other can't force her to stay, the root will be broken as soon as the root is pulled.

"Then when will you come back?" Shen Xin asked hoarsely.

"Soon." Lu Nian said over there.

On the day Lu Nian came back, Shen Xin approached Yuan Zhou to ask about Xu Wei's affairs. Yuan Zhou was indeed a know-it-all in X City, and after asking around, he clarified most of the matter.

The news was passed around, and some details were not very true, but it was probably that the person Xu Zong raised outside was pregnant with a child, and the Du family knew about it.

It's normal for Xu Yan to steal food outside

Yes, but it's the first time to kill someone. If it's just stealing food from the Du family, you can turn a blind eye, but this person wants to have an illegitimate child.

His wife found out what was going on with Lu Wenqiu, and sent someone to follow Xu Wei and Lu Wenqiu to the hospital. They didn't leave until the child was aborted, and they filed for divorce afterwards.

Shen Xin really didn't expect things to be like this, she asked Yuan Zhou: "Then is Xu Wei divorced?"

Yuan Zhou replied with a message: "It should have only happened in the past few days. He has been relying on his wife all the way, and now he does this kind of thing again. It's getting harder."

"It deserves it." Shen Xin tutted.

The matter of Lu Nian's abandonment of the exam was not hidden from the school. Originally, the school leader planned to talk to her after she returned to school, but Fang Ran blocked it.

Shen Xin finished class early and went to the station to wait for someone. When she saw Lu Nian coming out, she raised her hand and shook it.

Lu Nian's complexion was not very good, his chin was pointed again, as if his bones had been cut, and his face became smaller again.Carrying a bag in her hand, she walked out of the crowd, and saw Shen Xin as soon as she raised her eyes.

Before she could come over, Shen Xin snatched the bag from her hand and said, "The color of this bag matches my clothes today, I'll carry it."

Lu Nian froze for a moment, "Why are you here?"

"I don't want you to look at things and think about others, so I sent myself here." Shen Xin smiled.

Lu Nian pulled the sleeve on his left shoulder over his shoulder, "No."

"I didn't see then why did you change your avatar and secretly draw me." Shen Xin paused, and then said: "My hand."

Lu Nian tugged on his sleeves again, as if feeling a little uncomfortable, "Then I'll change it later."

"In exchange for what, in exchange for the photo I sent you that day?" Shen Xin's mouth curled up.

Lu Nian's ears were slightly warm, and his eyes slanted to the distance, "Also... yes."

Shen Xin noticed that she was tugging at her sleeves all the time, so she stretched out her hand to wrap her wrists up. The rolled up cuffs fell apart, and the seams on the shoulders were a little unraveled, obviously they were torn apart forcefully.

"What's the matter?" Shen Xin poked her finger in and poked Lu Nian's shoulder.

The skin underneath was plain white and very smooth, just like silk, Shen Xin couldn't hold back and poked it again.

Lu Nian shrank back, opened his mouth slightly, but the words didn't reach his lips, and he said after a while, "She's talking."

Shen Xin was silent for a while, "If you talk about it, then talk about it. At worst, let's go buy new clothes."

Lu Nian shook his head: "No, just go back and change."

"You don't want your girlfriend to buy you new clothes?" Shen Xin narrowed her eyes slightly, with a look of scrutiny.

Lu Nian was stunned for a moment, not knowing how he responded, he followed Shen Xin to the department store in a daze.

Most of the shopping malls are visited by tourists from other places. The prices are high, and the locals don't know how to come. At this time, the tourist season is off-season, and the building is very empty and there are no people.

Shen Xin chose clothes based on her own preferences, and compared a dress to Lu Nian.

The shoulders are covered with black gauze, there is no difference between covering them and not covering them, and even the back has such a translucent design.

Vulgar, it is too vulgar.

Shen Xin felt that she was going too far, before Lu Nian could glare at her, she hung up the skirt first, then picked up another set that was a little more formal and put it in front of Lu Nian.

"I think it looks good." Shen Xin said.

Lu Nian frowned and looked in the mirror, then glanced at the paper bags in Shen Xin's hands, and said softly, "Sister, forget this, it's enough."

"Go and try." Shen Xin raised her chin.

Lu Nian didn't move, and made love to her.

There was no disturbance in Shen Xin's mind, she turned her head and said, "Pack this up for me, and swipe your card."

Lu Nian froze for a moment, then said, "I'll try."

Only then did Shen Xin laugh, leaning against the counter and waiting for Lu Nian to come out of the fitting room.

The two wandered around until evening, when Shen Xin passed by a stockings store, she paused for a moment, then turned her head to look at the set of fishnet stockings on the model's legs on the display stand.

It's so good-looking, it makes her heart itch.

She turned her head and looked at Lu Nian's exposed legs, thinking that the socks might look better if they were put on Lu Nian's legs.

However, if this thing is bought back, the children will be unhappy.

It's a pity, Shen Xin shook her head, then turned around and said, "I'm going to the bathroom, wait for me for a while."

Lu Nian nodded, and took the paper bag from Shen Xin.

As the autumn solstice approached, the night came a little earlier, and even the night was cooler than usual.

The two walked around again, and went back when they couldn't buy anything, thinking that they could read books or something when they went back early.

Shen Xin worked hard for two days, but suddenly she was not used to slacking off. She said, "One should put down the entertainment and study hard, counting every second in reading and doing quizzes. Only then will you know that enjoying entertainment is so enjoyable."

Lu Nian glanced at her, always feeling that Shen Xin was a bit over the top when she went shopping.

Shen Xin was very good at it, it was the first time that she felt that swiping a card for a partner was so interesting, she wished she could swipe a few more, happiness is as simple as that.

On the way back, both hands were full of paper bags, like nouveau riche.

When she got home, Shen Xin emptied out the contents of several paper bags and piled them all together.

She flipped through it, and suddenly found something strange.

Thin and silky, light and airy.

Shen Xin picked up the thing from the pile of clothes with two fingers, and almost lost her soul after shaking it away.

Isn't this the fishnet stockings she looked at a few more times? Why did she come here? She really got out of her body and bought it secretly without telling herself?

Lu Nian turned her head and blinked, her eyes so calm.

Shen Xin swallowed a bit, not daring to look directly at the filth in her heart, but the appearance of this thing was a bit too weird, so she said awkwardly, "What is this?"

Lu Nian said nonchalantly: "When I passed by, I noticed that you took a few extra glances."

Shen Xin took a slow breath, and indeed looked a few more times.

Lu Nian's voice was soft, "I thought you liked it but I'm too embarrassed to buy it. I'll buy it for you when you go to the bathroom."

Shen Xin: ...

"Do you want to try it on now?" Lu Nian tilted his head slightly, his face was still expressionless, but those dark eyes seemed to be a little brighter.

Like expecting something.

Shen Xin: ...
