so affectionate

Jiang Nan originally planned to let Xiao Bin go back when he arrived in Zhangjiakou, but he insisted on following, but he refused to listen, and he couldn't leave him alone, so he had to make some changes in the plan.

Xiao Bin sent a text message to his second uncle, asking him to help persuade his father, saying that he would go out to play for a while, and he would go back soon.Jiang Nan also borrowed his mobile phone to send Jiang Hesen a message. He didn't say the reason, but said that he was going out to relax and the return date was uncertain, so he didn't have to worry.The calling card was then thrown in the trash.

The two did not stop in Zhangjiakou. After the car was driven away by a college classmate of Xiao Bin, they went directly to the bus station and bought two tickets with the closest departure time. They went all the way to the southwest, passing through Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai, Tibet, Sichuan, In Chongqing, Hubei, Jiangxi and other places, I made a big circle, stopping and stopping along the way to visit the mountains and rivers. It's not like running, but it really seems to be out to play.

Two months later, until the beginning of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the two arrived in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River.Jiang Nan had a very good impression of this place. He stayed here for more than ten days and was still reluctant to leave. In two months, he traveled more than half of China. He had seen enough scenery and was tired. When I came to Jiangnan last time, I especially wanted to stop and have a rest.

Although Xiao Bin didn't have any special feelings about this place, seeing that Jiang Nan liked it, he didn't have any objections. The two discussed it and planned to stay for a while.

Once this decision was made, Jiang Nan stopped going out every day. He used the hotel computer to log into the mailbox that he hadn't logged in for two months. When he opened it, dozens of unread emails filled the computer screen.He glanced roughly, except for a few advertising emails, most of them were from Jiang Hesen, the remaining one or two were from his friends, and one was from Bai Qi.

He directly deleted Bai Qi's, and then opened Li Yuanji's. The main content of the email was to ask where he and Xiao Bin were, but they couldn't be reached by phone, and there was no news for two months in a row.He didn't show much concern between the lines, instead he was full of ridicule, and asked if the two really eloped, and they didn't take him with them, not enough brothers.In the end, it took a paragraph to describe the scene where Xiao Bin's father was furious, which made Xiao Bin tense up.

Jiang Nan shook his head and laughed, this Li Yuanji, you can't expect that when he is in good shape, everything will be as dishonest as a joke in his mouth.

He opened Jiang Hesen's emails again, starting from the earliest one.The time of this letter was late at night when he left Beijing. Presumably, Jiang Hesen sent it overnight after he received his text message and found that he could not be reached.The letter was sent in a hurry, and there were a few typos in the repeated questions, which showed that the sender was flustered at the time.

Jiang Nan read each letter, and the first few letters were sent within a day or two, repeatedly asking him where he was, why he left for no reason, when he would come back, and so on.Slowly, as Jiang Hesen's mood became peaceful, the frequency of sending letters became fixed once every two days, and the content of the letters also changed accordingly, mainly recording trivial things in his life, such as what he did and what he listened to today. Jokes and the like, there is a sentence at the end of the email without exception: Come back early, brother is very worried about you.

There was heat in Jiang Nan's eyes. There were countless things in his heart that he wanted to say to his brother, and countless grievances that he wanted to be comforted, but in the end he couldn't say anything, he could only type one line: Brother, I'm fine, don't worry.Then hastily closed the mailbox.

Jiang Nan went to Xiao Bin's room and knocked on the door, but found that he was not there.Two days ago they ran into a female master's student who was traveling alone during the summer vacation. Xiao Bin and the girl met each other very late and had a heated relationship. For the past two days, they have been wandering around with the girl every day, so they must be still outside.

Jiang Nan took it for granted. He walked out of the hotel alone and walked slowly along the river bank to a stone arch bridge. He lay on the side of the fence and watched the boats in the river slowly swaying. The tourists on the boat held paper umbrellas. On the bridge, he showed a friendly smile, and he also smiled back, watching the boat go away along the river.

After crossing the bridge and walking for a while, it was a high school. It was a holiday now, and the campus was empty. He walked around the school wall and returned to the hotel where he was staying before he knew it. The proprietress was preparing to cook dinner. Seeing him greet warmly, "Are you back?"

Jiang Nan smiled and nodded.

The proprietress had been in contact with him for ten days, and knew that this clean young man was very shy and quiet, so she didn't mind, so she asked him enthusiastically, "What are you going to eat tonight? There are river noodles, rice noodles, and gnocchi. It's okay to eat."

"Do you have rice cakes? The stir-fried rice cakes from the day before yesterday were delicious." Jiang Nan said embarrassedly.

"Shrimp stir-fried rice cakes, right? Yes, I'm not boasting, our family's stir-fried rice cakes are famous far and near!"

Jiang Nan nodded repeatedly in agreement.

While the two were talking, suddenly a black boy like a loach rushed in from outside, wearing only a pair of underpants, with bare feet, his face and body were shiny black.As soon as the boy came in, he lifted the teapot on the counter and poured it.

When the proprietress saw him, she immediately raised her eyebrows and stared at him and said, "Damn you bastard! You've gone into the water again, haven't you?"

The boy jumped up like a little tiger and retorted: "Awei and Xiaoyue have both gone, their mother didn't say anything, you are just so wordy!"

The proprietress didn't say anything, she picked up a thin bamboo whip very skillfully, and swished it to whip people.The boy ran out of the door in a hurry, and the proprietress chased after him, and the two ran away one after the other.

Jiang Nan didn't see the strangeness. It took him less than ten days from being stunned when he first came, to frantically persuading the fight, and now calmly watching.

Xiao Bin didn't come back until eight or nine o'clock. It was already past the meal time. Jiang Nan asked him to go to the proprietress for some food, but he said that he had already eaten outside.

Jiang Nan asked, "Did you eat with that girl?"

Xiao Bin nodded. He kept staring at Jiang Nan, but unfortunately, he didn't see a slight change in his expression. He was a little disappointed and relieved.That's enough, he thought, it's enough to be crazy for more than twenty years, at least he won't regret it in retrospect.

For the past two days, he has been with the girl named Lin Ting. It is this rational and independent girl who has slowly cooled his feverish head for the past two months, gradually calmed down, and many practical problems have come back to him.Not to mention that Jiang Nan doesn't like him, even if Jiang Nan agrees to be with him, would he really be willing to let go of his parents, family background, everything in the past, and start from scratch with him?He started to think about this question a long time ago, long before Jiang Nan asked him for help, he started to think about it after he discovered his feelings, the answer is no, otherwise, he would not have been forbearing until he was impulsive and crazy Dare to speak out the true feelings of the heart.

Xiao Bin does not deny his retreat in this matter, but he is more aware that the momentary passion is far more than maintaining a relationship or a relationship for a long time.People make impulsive decisions that are often irrational. He has to say that it was crazy to agree to help Jiang Nan and leave with him. Although he does not regret it, not regretting does not mean that he must continue to be impulsive , There will always be a day when I wake up from the dream.

He is a born businessman, born to weigh the pros and cons. Falling in love with Jiang Nan is a loss-making business in itself. He doesn't mind losing money for a while, but he has not been rewarded for his efforts, so he has to consider whether this business is still feasible. up.

He looked at Jiang Nan's side face, and said slowly: "In a few days, I will probably go back."

"What?" Jiang Nan looked away from the TV screen, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

Xiao Bin took a deep breath and said: "Lin Ting, the girl I met before, she is studying in Beijing, and school will start in a few days. She has to go back to school. I plan to go back with her. It's been a while since I've been out for so long. I miss Beijing."

Jiang Nan was in a daze for a while, as if he didn't understand what was going on, he said in a daze, "You're not with me anymore?"

"I'm sorry," Xiao Bin turned away, not daring to meet his gaze, "I'm going back."

"Oh..." Jiang Nan's brain finally started to function normally, and he smiled: "That's good, I let you go back a long time ago, but you still haven't listened, why did you suddenly figure it out now, it's because of the girls ! You are a guy who values ​​sex and despises friends!"

Xiao Bin lowered his head and smiled, yes and no.

Jiang Nan asked again: "When?"

"I can't tell. The day after tomorrow at the latest depends on her arrangement."

"That's fine, I'll take you to the station then. By the way, I also received an email from Li Zi today. That kid is full of nonsense. Remember to punch him twice when you return to Beijing."

Xiao Bin nodded and said, "Definitely."

"Also... Where is Uncle Xiao—"

"Don't worry about this. I know my dad. The anger comes and goes quickly. I'll let him beat me up at most when I go back. He beat me up a lot since I was a child. I don't care about it once or twice. It's okay. of."

"...I still hurt you."

"I said, it's okay, do you still think of me as a brother? It's you, what are you going to do after I'm gone?"

"Me?" Jiang Nan blinked, "I don't know, I'm going to find a place to live. I like this place very much. After traveling so many places, I will stop one day. This is a good choice."

"Shall we meet again in the future?"

"What nonsense? We must meet! Could it be that you don't want to see me? Then I will kill you and go to your house, pull you out and beat you up."

Xiao Bin forced a smile and said, "I'll wait for you."

Two days later, Jiang Nan sent Xiao Bin and Lin Ting to the bus station.

When the two left Beijing, they didn't bring any luggage. When they were going back, Xiao Bin had an extra travel backpack on his shoulders.The luggage was heavy, but Xiao Bin knew that he left another, more important thing forever.
