Chasing the Mist

After that day, facing the darkness, Lin Yiran couldn't help but recall the scenes of his parents before their death. The blood and resentment were like a nightmare, repeated over and over again. Those scenes were accompanied by panic, tension, and anxiety.

Autumn goes to winter, and it is another year of snow.

Out of the corridor, Gu Xun picked up the hat of Lin Yiran's down jacket, put it on his head, and said angrily, "Be careful that your ears get cold."

Lin Yiran shrugged, "Gu Dui, it takes 2 minutes from the entrance of the building to the parking lot, can you freeze your ears off?"

Gu Xun stretched out his index finger and pushed his head, "Put it on if you tell me, why so much nonsense?"

Lin Yiran smiled, and no longer had the same knowledge as the irascible old people who were old.

The car was full of air-conditioning after a night of freezing, Gu Xun rubbed his hands and sighed casually, "It's been a year, how fast the days go by."

Thin snow fell from the sky, like a layer of tulle covering the city, and the heating melted the snow and frost on the windshield little by little, making the road ahead gradually clear.

Lin Yiran stared at the falling snow outside the car window, thoughtfully, after a while, he said: "Brother, I want to go back to study, but I can't be a night policeman, I am very distressed, I was admitted to the criminal police team to get close to you, but I don’t really like detectives, I think about it these days, but I’d rather do academic research, or go to the Institute of Criminal Psychology.”

Gu Xun squinted at him, "In what capacity are you telling me this?"

"Both."

Gu Xun smiled, leaned over and hooked his chin, "Baby, I will respect your choice at any time and do what you like."

Five years later.

Gu Xun and Lin Yiran went downstairs to Meng Jia's house, Gu Xun called and said, "Here we are, come down."

Meng Jia was wearing a black down jacket, a hat and a neckerchief, her small face was tightly covered, only a pair of bright eyes were exposed, she drove the door and got in, bringing a breath of cool air into the warm car, "It's so cold today .”

Lin Yiran turned her head back, "So choosing to get married in such a cold day is very courageous."

Meng Jia took off her hat, and leaned forward, "It's been a long time, my junior. Are you used to being a teacher in the police academy?"

"It's pretty good, at least I live a regular life, which allows me to fall asleep on time at ten o'clock every day."

"Well, when I have a baby in a few years, I'll also consider switching to a clerical job."

"..."

Chatting, unknowingly arrived at the cemetery.

Amidst the whiteness, stone monuments stood up one after another. When they got out of the car, the cold wind hit their faces like knives, and the three of them were no longer in the mood to chat.

In front of Zheng Tiancheng's grave, the photo on the stone tablet is his ID photo from the year he first came to the Municipal Bureau, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an incomparably bright smile on his lips. Five years have passed, and everyone in the team has more or less It has changed, but Zheng Tiancheng is still the same as before, he was left in time.

Before Meng Jia could speak, her eyes turned red. In the past few years, she rarely came to see him, because every time she saw this smiling face, her heart was pierced and she stopped moving forward.

Gu Xun and Lin Yiran stepped aside silently, Meng Jia wiped away the cold tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, I'm getting married on New Year's Day, I'm sorry I couldn't be single for you like the protagonist of the TV series, the boss said that people always I want to look forward, so I choose to bury you and our past.

My fiancé is from the traffic police brigade, he treats me very well, Brother Cheng, you should also be well. "

"He will be happy for you." Gu Xun patted Meng Jia on the shoulder.

Snowflakes slowly drifted down and landed on their heads and clothes. Lin Yiran brushed off the snow from the photo, "Brother Cheng, long time no see, I won't be a criminal police officer anymore..."

Like old friends they haven't seen for a long time, they babbled about many trivial matters in front of Zheng Tiancheng's tombstone, and they didn't leave until their teeth chattered with the cold.

Going straight along the road to the cemetery, the car stopped in front of a temple. The three of them got out of the car and went straight to the kitchen on the west side of the courtyard. Mother Gu was dressed in a plain nun's attire. God, why are you here?"

Gu Xun didn't speak, he took a step forward and grabbed the cabbage in her hand and cut it up. Meng Jia took off her gloves and put them on Gu's mother's hand, "Auntie, we'll do the work, you go and rest."

Gu's mother was all smiles, and she sat on a small bench to add firewood to Lin Yiran. She pulled Lin Yiran's clothes, "It's so cold, so I need to wear more."

"Auntie, I'm not cold, and I seldom come out indoors."

Gu's mother said calmly, "If you're divorced, don't call me aunt anymore. You can call me mom along with Gu Xun. After one son is gone and another son comes, I'm considered consummated."

Lin Yiran was stunned.

Meng Jia pushed him, "What are you still doing, call Mom."

Gu Xun pursed his lips and smiled, and continued cutting vegetables.

"mom!"

Mother Gu smiled, "Good boy, you three are good boys, Jiajia, come here."

Meng Jia put down the vegetables in her hand, dusted her hands, and squatted beside Gu's mother, "What's wrong, Auntie?"

Gu's mother took out the red envelope and stuffed it into her arms, "I heard from Gu Xun that you are going to get married on New Year's Day. Auntie would like to wish you a happy wedding."

"Auntie, I'll take your wish, just forget about the red envelope."

Gu Xun: "I'll take it if I give it to you. She is not short of money. She was worrying about having nowhere to spend the money she had saved in her own house in the early years."

Meng Jia accepted the red envelope and hugged Gu's mother, "Thank you, Auntie, when I have a child, I will definitely bring him to see you."

While chatting and laughing, they prepared a vegetarian meal, four plates of green vegetables, and a simple list. Gu's mother put down the dishes and asked, "How is your father?"

"I heard from my uncle that it's good. Last year, I married a 20-year-old young model. At the beginning of the year, the young model gave birth to a son for him. I'm probably immersed in the joy of the newborn."

Mother Gu lowered her head slightly and said nothing.

"It's been two years since you came to the temple, and you still haven't seen through the world?" Gu Xun teased his mother.

Gu's mother gave him a white look, "It's getting dark, you guys should go down the mountain quickly."

On the white mountain, in front of the red door, the figure in the light gray nun's clothes became smaller and smaller until it disappeared from Gu Xun's sight. I witnessed Gu Yuan's death with my own eyes. Gu's mother had a mental disorder for more than a year, crying and laughing at times. Seeing Gu Xun, he screamed and scolded her. Gu Renli saw her go crazy and sent her to a nursing home without any further attention. She was thrown away mercilessly by her master like a worthless toy.

After Lin Yiran returned to school for graduate school, he went to the nursing home to accompany her in his spare time and told her to take medicine. After more than a year of conditioning, her mental state gradually returned to normal, and she clearly realized her situation. In order to let her accept the new life, Lin Yiran took her to a meditation class and completely abandoned the extravagant life of wearing gold and silver in the past. Over time, she opened her heart, learned the truth about the past, and accepted it again. Gu Xun.

Gu Renli has been living in the illusion created by Gu Yuan before his death, attributed Gu Yuan's death to Gu Xun, and completely severed contact with Gu Xun. For five years, Gu Xun tried to solve his father's misunderstanding, but to no avail, Threatened that a penny of inheritance would not be given to Gu Xun.

On the anniversary of Gu Yuan's death last year, Gu Xun waited for Gu Renli to leave before going there. He put flowers, knelt down and looked at the person in the photo, "Now Gu Renli hates me so much, you have become the best son in his life, satisfied Yet?"

The wind whizzed past my ears, and no one could give an answer.

The next day.

Gu Xun slept until noon, hungry, and walked into the kitchen with dazed eyes. The tall figure in front of the chopping board was busy. He hugged Lin Yiran from behind and rubbed his head on the back of his neck, "Why is it so delicious?" ?”

"Beef soup and soup." Lin Yiran was busy cooking, and there was a giant koala stuck behind him, which was very inconvenient. He pushed his elbow back, "It will be fine soon, you go out and wait first."

"No." Gu Xun didn't let go, still sticking to him.

The pot was bubbling with steam, and the aroma came out from the gap in the pot lid, and swam into Gu Xun's nostrils, muttering in a low voice, "I'm so hungry."

Lin Yiran was helpless, lifted the lid, took out a spoonful, blew it and passed it to Gu Xun's mouth, "Taste it first."

Gu Xun stepped forward a little, put his lips on the edge of the spoon and drank it. While praising the taste, he did not forget to kiss Lin Yiran on the face.

Sanmao in the living room, smelling the aroma, couldn't help but come over and stood at the door of the kitchen to examine them.

Sanmao is a dog.

The stray dog ​​that Lin Yiran picked up at the school gate three years ago was a hybrid of some kind of native dog. It looked ugly and had a weird personality. Since returning home with Lin Yiran, he only recognized him and did not allow others to approach him. Seeing Gu Xun and Lin Yiran getting close, they both stepped forward to bite Gu Xun's trouser legs, and they have become Gu Xun's biggest rival in love.

Lin Yiran pushed Gu Xun again, "San Mao is here."

"It's coming, and I won't let go."

Lin Yiran smiled lightly, picked up a piece of chicken, and shouted to the door: "Sanmao, come here."

Sanmao ran over quickly, caught the chicken, bared his teeth at Gu Xun while eating, his eyes fell on Gu Xun's legs after eating the chicken.

Gu Xun let go of Lin Yiran with a jerk, and took a step back, "The shorts I'm wearing today, if you dare to bite me, I will stew it for you."

Sanmao heard the cocoon, and was not afraid. After looking at each other for a while, Gu Xun was defeated and left in despair.

Lin Yiran's hearty laughter came from behind.

The two of them ate, and Sanmao squatted aside, watching eagerly. After the meal, they nestled on the sofa and watched a movie. Sanmao leaned against Lin Yiran's legs and felt the heat, surrounded by the two of them and the dog. They have passed five years of plain and warm days, and it will be longer in the future.
