Reverse Approach

【26】

For the first time, Liao Nanqing's score in the college entrance examination was higher than that of any mock test in the past, which even surprised him.With this score, you can fill in the second book in city B, but the choice of major will be limited.Accompanied by Su Beimo, Liao Nanqing thought about it, and in order to make a steady profit, he finally chose an unpopular major that he didn't like relatively speaking, and filled out his application.

The weather is not hot, the breeze is blowing, and the green grass on the campus has experienced a heavy rain, mixed with the fresh smell of soil.

When Liao Nanqing walked out of the school gate, Su Beimo waved to him with a bottle of ice water.

The moment the sweaty bottle reached the palm, the temperature dropped to the green grass where the raindrops belonged.Liao Nanqing unscrewed the cap and took two sips slowly.

"I've booked two tickets for tomorrow morning, and we have to tidy up when we get there." Su Beimo was in a happy mood. Starting today, they were going to end their semester-long long-distance relationship.After completing the application form, Liao Nanqing decided to live in City B with Su Beimo.

For this reason, Su Beimo hastily changed houses. It was an apartment very close to the company, with a small kitchen and balcony. The monthly rent was not cheap, but it was very suitable for two people to live in.Before Liao Nanqing's college entrance examination, Su Beimo planned to change to a slightly larger house so that Liao Nanqing could come and live there. Finally, taking advantage of the salary increase, he gritted his teeth and rented it.

"The apartment is not far from the school you filled in. Then you can go through the school and go home every day." Su Beimo used the word "go home" very delicately, and Liao Nanqing felt sweet when he heard it.

Liao Nanqing was shy: "But I don't know if I will be admitted, although the major is not popular enough."

"It will be accepted."

"Why are you so sure?"

Su Beimo shrugged and said, "Don't you see who is helping you with tutoring this semester?"

Liao Nanqing smiled happily, with two slight dimples looming: "I'll go to City B to find a summer job, so that I won't be bored when you go to work, and I can save tuition fees." He is not afraid of hard work at all, and now Liao Nanqing is right The days ahead are full of expectations, just like a young eagle learning to fly, ready to spread its wings against the wind.

In fact, Su Beimo could help Liao Nanqing pay his tuition, but Liao Nanqing was unwilling and insisted on working part-time by himself.If Su Beimo forced him to pay his tuition, he would write an IOU, and he would still go to work in order to pay off the debt.

Although they have become lovers, Liao Nanqing still reminds himself not to rely on Su Beimo for everything.When he can, he should learn to be independent.

Once this perception is established, it is difficult to change it.

Su Beimo simply didn't object.

"I'm going to live at home tonight. Some relatives are coming and we have to have dinner together." Su Beimo said when he remembered.

Liao Nanqing was disappointed: "Okay."

"What are you doing, we can see each other every day from now on." He sighed, "Every day, do you think you will get tired of seeing me?"

Knowing that Su Beimo was joking, Liao Nanqing replied sternly: "No, I won't get tired of watching it."

Su Beimo was very proud of hearing this, and walked briskly.He never concealed his naivety about love in front of Liao Nanqing, he liked Liao Nanqing's straightforwardness.

The two walked on the quiet road after the rain, chatting with each other.Liao Nanqing really wanted to hold hands, and so did Su Beimo.When there were no passers-by around, Liao Nanqing stretched out his hand first, took Su Beimo's hand, and shook it lightly: "Su Beimo."

Su Beimo stopped and kissed him: "What are you doing?"

Liao Nanqing smiled and said, "I'm a little happy."

Su Beimo said: "In the future, there will be a lot of things that will make you happy. Don't get excited about such a small thing as cohabitation. Otherwise, I will be romantic in the future, and you will be suffocated." Stop the lingering numbness.Su Beimo held Liao Nanqing's hand instead, interlocking his fingers.He took a slow step and walked forward, pursing his lips and smiling every few steps.

Once, twice, three times and four times.

Liao Nanqing found out and giggled along with him.

Once, twice, three times and four times.

synchronized.

At night, Liao Nanqing was lying on the bed shaking his feet. He had just washed his hair and hadn't had time to dry it. He was holding his phone to reply to Su Beimo's messages.They made an appointment to go to the station together at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning. This was the first time in Liao Nanqing and Su Beimo's life that they took the bullet train together.

Liao Nanqing turned over, feeling a little nervous in anticipation.

To this day, he still feels that what he experienced is like a dream.Even after leaving the town, he walked along the road in this dream.The words on the screen of the mobile phone are square, and they are pronounced with a round accent.Liao Nanqing set his sights on it, and read the concluding words sent to him by Su Beimo, one by one: "Tomorrow, day, seven, o'clock, no, see you, no, scattered..."

There is joy in every tone.

Liao Nanqing pursed his lips, a hint of sweetness overflowed.

He whispered to himself: "Good night, Su Beimo."

However, in the next second, Liao Nanqing received a strange call.

Except for Su Beimo and some sales calls, almost no one called Liao Nanqing.Besides, he didn't know the number, so Liao Nanqing hung up immediately.

However, within half a minute, the bell rang again.Liao Nanqing picked it up in confusion, but after hearing the voice, his whole body turned pale. After a long time, he timidly replied: "Mom..."

At seven o'clock the next day, Liao Nanqing and Su Beimo did not meet at the station.

The location was changed to an unremarkable snack bar in the center of the city, and Liao Nanqing came alone.The snack bar is narrow and has a stale atmosphere, which can be seen at a glance.Liao Nanqing walked to the door and saw his mother Li Qin sitting in the corner.She was wearing a thin black coat, her haggard eyes were dull, and she was so thin that she was about to sink into the shadows.

There were very few people in the snack bar, and Liao Nanqingyi still sat opposite Li Qin, relatively speechless.

For a long time, Li Qin never sat down with Liao Nanqing to have a meal alone.

Because Liao Nanqing's stepfather rejected him very much and was unwilling to eat at the same table with him.Every time Liao Nanqing comes home from school, what awaits him is usually a plate of leftovers and a cold living room.Occasionally when eating together, Li Qin would take out Liao Nanqing's portion alone and let him eat in his room.

Liao Nanqing's room in his stepfather's house was a narrow utility room with a 1.2-meter single bed, no desk, and no lamp.The stacked cardboard boxes smelled damp and musty. Li Qin covered them with a thick cloth, and put Liao Nanqing's meals and plates on a cardboard box.

The food made by Li Qin was delicious, and Liao Nanqing had been eating it since she was a child, but since the year she remarried, Liao Nanqing always felt that the food was tasteless.

Most of the time, Liao Nanqing would always look for a part-time job during the holidays, and stay outside during the day as long as he could.Liao Nanqing usually goes to the bookstore to rest for an afternoon when he encounters a part-time job.If you don't read a book, just find a corner to take a nap.

He didn't want to 'go home' and he was not welcome at home, not even his mum.As if she could catch her breath if he didn't come home.

At that time, Li Qin had long hair and a thin figure. Her long hair covered her gentle side face in the past, and her voice was always weak.

She often said: "Nanqing, be obedient and don't be annoying."

Liao Nanqing tried to speak as little as possible to reduce his sense of presence.During the eight years, what he heard the most was Li Qin's sigh.He was terrified of this voice, as if when it sounded, endless sorrow would flood into his mind, and those past sorrows would repeat themselves countless times.

They are mother and son, the link that entangles each other in the past.

As long as you meet each other, you can see all the mistakes of the year from the other party.So Li Qin was avoiding him. Liao Nanqing knew all along that he complained and was puzzled, and gradually let go of it over time.After that accident, their lives were not easy, and there was no point in complaining.

Like a reunion after a long absence, Li Qin's haggard face showed a different look, and it was hard to tell whether it was missing or excited.

She called him: "Nan Qing, you seem to have grown a little taller, and your complexion has improved a lot."

Liao Nanqing lowered his head in embarrassment, as if he was dumb, unable to utter a single tone, still not good at speaking.His hands were clasped together, the thumbnail of his right hand pinching the index finger of his left hand.

"Would you like something to eat?" Li Qin naturally noticed Liao Nanqing's movements and sensed his panic.This is the child she conceived in October, and she actually knows best what kind of temper it has grown into.Now, Li Qin felt that Liao Nanqing was more like his father Liao Dong.What flashed through her mind was Liao Dong's face before he was imprisoned, indifferent, cold, and mentally ill.

She gasped, and said hastily: "Mom, let me order you a bowl of big rice noodles, don't you like it the most?"

Liao Nanqing looked at her, and slightly lowered his eyes: "I'm not hungry." He didn't like to eat big noodles for a long time.

"..."

Li Qin was silent for a while, then complained: "Is he still refusing you to see him?"

This 'he' refers to Liao Nanqing's father, Liao Dong.

Liao Nanqing nodded, then shook his head: "I haven't been there for a long time, I don't know, last time my father said he didn't want me to go again."

Li Qin's nose was sore, don't turn her head to wipe away her tears, she also has no appetite.Since both of them can't eat, it's better to talk about it frankly.Of course, Li Qin didn't come here simply because she wanted to see her son. She took out an envelope bag from her bag, which was slightly thick.Putting it in front of Liao Nanqing, it took a while before he said: "If you plan to go to university, you can use the money here to subsidize tuition fees. If you don't plan to continue studying, you can use the money here to learn something so that you can work part-time. "

Her eyes were dim, the same as Liao Nanqing's at the beginning.

Liao Nanqing stared at the envelope dumbly, and suddenly pursed his lips tightly.

"Your Uncle Zhang lost a lot of money doing business with others, and my mother can't afford more... Nanqing, from now on, I can no longer pay you living expenses." She said it with difficulty, her hands were rough Thin, pushed the envelope forward again.

Liao Nanqing clenched his fists and remained motionless.

She planned to get rid of Liao Nanqing, but she felt more uncomfortable than anyone else.This is the flesh that fell from her body. It was supposed to be the closest existence, but it brought her misfortune time and time again. Subconsciously, she had long regarded Liao Nanqing as a disaster star.

Her ex-husband owed debts, murdered her and went to jail, causing her to suffer a lot, and her current husband treated her harshly because of her past marriage.

Everyone said that she was the wife of a murderer, and the neighbors around her pointed fingers, indifference and spurning followed one after another. Gossip was a blunt weapon, and she pointed all the blame at her young son.

All this was provoked by Liao Nanqing, who brought a devastating blow to the Liao family.

but……

Liao Nanqing was also a victim. He was her son, and it was she who failed to protect him.

She felt guilty, sad, and depressed to the extreme.Slowly, she began to avoid.

Li Qin has been living in such a dilemma for these years, and the reality has long since crushed her.She began to become silent, and after having a new child, she even ignored Liao Nanqing who was in need of maternal care and guidance.She pushed Liao Nanqing away step by step, and finally chose to send him living expenses to drive him back to the source of the crime, this small town.

Liao Nanqing's eyes were slightly red, so astringent that there were no tears.

He didn't say anything, but his heart was sad but he seemed to have known about this scene. He couldn't say whether he was calm or calm, but he accepted Li Qin's real purpose so easily.

Li Qin wanted to abandon him completely.

……

Seeing that Liao Nanqing was indifferent, Li Qin hurriedly stood up, bent over, and in an extremely embarrassed posture, she wanted to force the envelope into his hand, forcing Liao Nanqing to compromise, her voice trembling and choked: "Nanqing, you Don't blame mom, don't blame, okay?"

Liao Nanqing still clenched his fist, unwilling to let go, and unwilling to accept the envelope.

It seemed that if he took over, he would no longer have a mother.But if he doesn't take it, he doesn't have a mother anymore.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but at that moment, he saw Li Qin's long-sleeved scar, which was faintly visible.Liao Nanqing was all too familiar with these bruises.Li Qin knew that he saw it, and hurriedly pulled down his sleeves, tremblingly trying to stuff the money into Liao Nanqing's hand.

"What did he do to you?" Liao Nanqing said hoarsely.

Li Qin was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "It was me who was not careful, so don't worry about it... Just, take the money."

"Did you get caught because you sent me money?" Liao Nanqing stared at Li Qin, draining all his energy.

Li Qin bit her lip, her eyes were frighteningly red, and her tears fell drop by drop.All misfortunes and sorrows all started from Liao Nanqing.She is going to leave him!He must be thrown away... This determination made Liao Nanqing terrified.

They all had a bad life, and only by leaving each other can they start their lives again.

Liao Nanqing felt cold all over, and suddenly realized the truth. He pressed Li Qin's flustered hand, pushed it away, and said expressionlessly, "I don't blame you, and I don't want money. From now on, I won't come to you either. OK?"

OK?
