when love comes

People coming and going, vehicles in constant communication shuttle through the city full of high-rise buildings, the setting sun slantly shines on the glass mirrors of the buildings piercing into the sky, and the refracted golden dazzling light hits the crossroads.

Stop at the red light, go at the green light, beside the zebra crossing, thousands of the most common yellow taxis in the city drive forward behind a limousine.

The taxi drove steadily to an old street with some history. The buildings on both sides of the street are not high and the trees are lush. It is very suitable for walking or strolling, so this is also one of the more famous commercial streets in this city.Although the buildings that are not very tall seem old, the decoration of each store is exquisite and luxurious, whether it is fashionable or classical, or Chinese or European and American style, which makes people dazzled and dizzy.

As the time for shift change approached, the taxi drove slowly through this busy street to see if it could pick up another passenger before the shift change. Finally, when we were about to leave the old street, we met a beckoning customer.

The window of the car was pulled down, and the lady with the big bags and small bags in both hands was covered with dense beads of sweat. She bent down with some difficulty and said to the driver, "Mr. Driver, I'm going to Tonghe Building, No. 76, Jiangnan Avenue."

The driver pulled down his hat a bit, only showing his chin, hesitant to hear this, this is the completely opposite route to the car dealership, and there is a distance, if he goes there, it will delay the time for shift change.

Seeing that he didn't answer, the female passenger hurriedly said: "Mr. Driver, I'm going back in a hurry. Please go ahead and take a ride. I have already been refused by three taxis. How about I give you some extra fare?"

The driver bent over and smiled slightly: "Come on, there is no need to add money."

The female passenger hurriedly opened the back seat of the car and put her things on the car, "Mr. Driver, thank you, thank you."

After sitting firmly and closing the car door, the driver presses the odometer, starts the car, turns the car around, and drives towards the way he came——

When the car passed under an overpass, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated. The driver took it out and looked at it, then pressed the reject button and put it back where it was, and continued to concentrate on driving.

About 10 minutes later, when we arrived at the destination, the female passenger took out the money and handed it to the driver from the back seat of the car: "Mr. driver, here is the money for the car."

The driver reached out to take it, and the female passenger's eyes fell on his hand, she couldn't help being stunned, when he got back the change, she couldn't help but look at the driver's face, hesitated again, then pulled back the change, opened the car door, and picked up the things He also fled away.

Watching her leaving in a hurry, the driver still had that faint smile on his face, and after a while he took out his phone to call back.

"mom."

"Xiaofan, are you off work? 』

"No, I just sent a customer off, and I'm rushing to the garage now."

"Okay, then you come back quickly, you still have to change your clothes and dress up, you must arrive before 07:30 tonight, you can't be late, it will leave a bad impression on people. 』

"Understood, Mom, I will hurry back as soon as possible. There is nothing else, I will hang up first."

"it is good. 』

Put down the phone, drive back to the company, and after completing the handover work with colleagues, take the bus to go home. When I got home, it was 10 minutes before seven o'clock.

"Ouch, Xiaofan, you're back, you're making mom anxious! Hurry up, take a shower right away, mom will get you clothes!"

The middle-aged woman who came up changed her usual grace and pushed her son into the bathroom. She slammed the door and ran to her son's bedroom. She took out her underwear and vest and put it on the door of the bathroom. She knocked on the door, "Xiaofan, Mom left the clothes at the door!"

"understood."

There was the sound of water in the bathroom, and the son's deep voice was somewhat covered by the sound of water.

The woman went to the living room, and patted her husband who was sitting leisurely on the sofa reading the newspaper with some annoyance, "Get up, don't crumple Xiaofan's new clothes!"

"Will I add trouble at this time?" The middle-aged man with white sideburns frowned at his wife, folded the newspaper and stood up, "Look, here it is, intact!"

The woman looked at the suit unfolded on the sofa, and made a serious face on the jacket, but there was a bit of slyness in her eyes. She laughed and couldn't help but lightly thumped his chest.

When Lu Fan came out of the bathroom wiping his dripping hair with a towel, he saw his parents standing in the living room, each with a piece of clothing in their hands, looking at him with eyes full of anticipation and pride. It's like looking at a perfect baby.

Lu Fan smiled, with a deep warmth in his heart.

"Mom, isn't this suit expensive?" It feels good to the touch, and when you put it on, it shows a tall and straight figure. It fits like a tailor-made one. Lu Fan looked left and right, and came to this conclusion.

Mother Lu bent down to straighten the creases of his trousers, then got up and stood beside Father Lu, looked at her son carefully from top to bottom with him, and said with a smile: "As expected of my son, he is really energetic! Don't worry Well, the clothes are not expensive. I specially asked my old classmate to make them specially. "

"Yeah, your mother called this old classmate a month ago!" Lu's father also smiled, and nodded to his son with satisfaction, "At that time, my father thought, is it necessary to go to such trouble, just buy it directly If you don’t have one set, you can get it, now it seems that it’s worth it, it’s worth it!”

Lu Fan grinned at his parents, turned around in front of the mirror, and glanced past his own eyelids.

"Okay, we don't have much time, let's go out now!"

Finally, mother Lu gave an order, and the family of three went downstairs hand in hand.

Fortunately, the distance is not too far. When I took a taxi to the reserved restaurant, it happened to be 07:30. Before the other party came, the three members of the Lu family sat at the reserved dining table. Soon, a waiter came forward. Pour water and tea.

"Xiaofan, Mom also mentioned it to you before. The woman is a middle school teacher with a good personality and good looks, but she is a bit older. She will be 30 years old after the new year. She is divorced and has a three-year-old child... ..." Speaking of this, Mother Lu looked at her son with some hesitation, "Xiaofan, do you feel wronged?"

Lu Fan smiled at his mother, "Mom, how can I feel wronged, she is the first blind date who was not scared away after seeing my photo."

The son smiled with a calm face, but his words hurt the mother's heart. Lu's mother was fine on the surface, but her gloomy eyes revealed her heartache. The wife sitting beside her patted the back of her hand.

That's right, today is her son's blind date, how can she be so sad!As soon as Lu's mother thought so, she immediately cheered up and changed the subject, and the three chatted happily.

"Xiaofan, I heard from the matchmaker who introduced you that after hearing about your deeds, the woman said with admiration that you did this to save people. No matter how your appearance changes, a kind heart will not It’s changed. That’s why she agreed to formally meet with you!”

Lu Fan smiled, this time it was indeed a happy smile, not because of being praised, but because of the satisfaction of being recognized.

"Mom, is her name Hu Rong?"

"right."

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, at 56:[-], the person Lu Fan and the others were waiting for came with the matchmaker, and it was long overdue.

"I'm really sorry, I have to pick up the kids after work, so I'm late."

The one who spoke was a woman without much make-up, wearing a one-piece dress, her long bangs were pinned behind her head with hairpins, and her shoulder-length hair was hanging loose. It could be seen that she had been carefully groomed.She has an oval face, single eyelids, and slightly dark skin. She is not very outstanding, but she looks very friendly. She is holding a three or four-year-old girl with two pigtails and a snow-white princess dress in her hand.

The three members of the Lu family all stood up to greet them. Mother Lu spoke first, with a smile on her lips, and looked up and down at the person opposite, "It's okay, it's okay, we just arrived, are you Miss Hu?"

"Yes, I am Hu Rong." The woman smiled shyly.

Mother Lu pointed to her son beside her and said, "This is my son, Lu Fan, have you seen his photo?"

Hu Rong's eyes fell on Lu Fan. Lu Fan lowered his face subconsciously, and was hit by his mother forcefully. Then he came to his senses and raised his head to look directly at the woman. But from her eyes, all Lu Fan saw was warm warm smile.

Both of them stopped talking, and the matchmaker came up and talked to Lu's mother and father with a smile. They chatted for a few minutes before sitting down one by one.

The little girl next to Hu Rong was playing with the doll in her hand with her head down. After being carried on a chair by an adult to introduce her name, she looked up at this and that, until her eyes fell on Lu Fan's face, and she suddenly stopped. .

The two protagonists of this blind date banquet have not spoken much, Hu Rong is shy, and Lu Fan is a little inferior, but their eyes meet and stop from time to time, and they can't help smiling when they look at the people around them.

Lu's mother was even more relieved. Although Hu Rong was a bit older and had a child with her, she was the only woman who could accept her son so far.Over the years, she had arranged many blind dates for her son, but those women were either scared away, or felt cheated, scolded Lu Fan angrily, turned around and left.

She is actually very reluctant to let her son suffer such grievances, but she is even more afraid that her son will have to live alone in this way from now on. It doesn't matter if they are still alive, but after a hundred years of their husband and wife, who will love him and take care of him? ?

So I kept arranging blind dates for my son. After countless disappointments, I finally met Hu Rong.

The atmosphere seemed harmonious, but in this tranquility, suddenly, a cry broke their steps.

It was Hu Rong's three-year-old daughter, who kept crying, attracting the attention of everyone in the restaurant.

Hu Rong hurriedly hugged her in her arms and coaxed her: "What's wrong with my daughter? Why did she start crying suddenly? Tell Mom, what's wrong?"

The little girl buried her face in her mother's arms, finally stopped, and aimed her eyes at the other person. When she bumped into someone, she burst into heart-piercing cries, and her whole body trembled in fright.

Not only Lu's father and Lu's mother, Lu Fan's face changed completely, his mind went blank, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

Hu Rong really had no choice, after apologizing repeatedly, she left the restaurant with her daughter in her arms, the matchmaker explained awkwardly, and finally rushed after her with her things.

Lu's mother looked at her son who was stiff beside her, and finally grabbed her wife's hand with red eyes. Lu's father held it hard, his hands trembling slightly.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Fan suddenly stood up.

Mother Lu hurriedly asked, "Xiaofan, where are you going?"

Lu Fan smiled at his mother, "Mom, I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be right back."

Mother Lu watched her son leave, and couldn't bear it any longer, and threw herself into his wife's arms in public.

In the quiet restaurant, the earth-shattering crying of a child attracted countless people's attention. Zhuang Junbo's attraction also fell on the table not far in front. First, he saw a thin black woman walking out quickly holding a crying girl In the dining room, I was eating and chatting with my friends. From the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of someone standing up at that table. I looked over inadvertently, but couldn't help being stunned.

The slender figure with his back turned to him walked towards the bathroom at a faster speed. Zhuang Junbo stood up almost subconsciously, and after saying sorry to his friend embarrassedly, he also walked in the same direction .

As soon as he opened the bathroom door, he saw the man bending over the sink and washing his face with water. Zhuang Junbo closed the door gently with his backhand, stood there silently, and looked at the figure without blinking.

Not long after, the man straightened up, pulled out a paper towel to wipe off the water droplets on his face, and Zhuang Junbo saw the man's face clearly in the mirror, his eyes widened in shock, and he waited for the man in the mirror Zhuang Junbo regained his composure after someone threw the soaked tissue into the trash can.Lu Fan didn't know that his every move fell into the eyes of someone standing by the door, and when he got ready to go out, he saw this tall man standing by the door.

When the four eyes met, Lu Fan froze for a moment, then looked away and walked towards the door.

"Officer Lu?"

Lu Fan stopped at his feet, and when he looked up again, his face was full of surprise.

Zhuang Junbo smiled from the bottom of his heart, took a step forward, and stretched out his right hand, "As expected, I did not admit my mistake. Long time no see, Officer Lu."

Looking down at his outstretched hand, Lu Fan didn't take it, but looked at his face hesitantly, flipping through the memory over and over again in his mind, trying to find out the pictures related to this handsome man. It was blank, "You are?"

Zhuang Junbo's smile deepened, his dark eyes shone breathtakingly under the refraction of the light, his voice was slightly lower, "I don't think you must remember..." and then slightly raised, "We met ten years ago... My name is Zhuang Junbo."

Zhuang Junbo?

The chaotic mind was cut open by something, and the memory was flipped through quickly, and finally stopped at the scene ten years ago. Lu Fan came back to his senses and took a look again. He suddenly had mixed feelings, "So it was you!"

Zhuang Junbo didn't speak, but tilted his head slightly and smiled at him.

Lu Fan no longer held the strong hand of the man in front of him without the slightest scruple, and held it tightly excitedly, "I didn't expect that you have changed so much, I can't recognize you at all! Ten years ago, you were so thin and small, Wearing an ill-fitting blue shirt that looks like a bag of noodles and floats as soon as you run, I have been chasing you from the train station, and it took four streets to catch up with you!"

"So you remember..." and remember so clearly.Zhuang Junbo stared deeply at Lu Fan in front of him, used a smile to hide the throbbing in his heart, and couldn't help but squeezed his hand harder.

"Of course I remember!" Lu Fan looked at the man in front of him seriously again. His silhouette was deep, his manners were decent, his clothes were neat, and he looked handsome and upright. He was a very good man! "However, if you hadn't declared yourself first, I would never have thought that the short and skinny man ten years ago would be you!"

Zhuang Junbo nodded with a smile, "Yes, ten years ago, I never thought that one day I would be able to walk on this bright road today. Officer Lu, thank you very much."

Seeing the sincerity in Zhuang Junbo's eyes, Lu Fan felt a little shy, scratched the back of his head, and said embarrassingly: "There is nothing to thank, I didn't do anything back then, and you don't need to call me Police Officer Lu anymore, I am no longer a police officer .”

Speaking of this, the light in Lu Fan's eyes dimmed, Zhuang Junbo looked at the left side of his face, and said thoughtfully: "No matter what, in my heart, your status will never change."

Is it a reunion after a long absence?The two exchanged pleasantries again, Zhuang Junbo really wanted to treat Lu Fan to a meal, but both of them were busy today, so he left Lu Fan's mobile phone number, saying that he would treat him to a good meal another day.

Lu Fan originally wanted to decline, but the hospitality was too much, so he gave him his mobile phone number, and the two parted ways.

When Lu Fan returned to his seat, all the dishes they had ordered before had been served, and the sumptuous dishes were placed in front of them, but the three of them didn't have the slightest appetite. Finally, Mother Lu asked the waiter to help pack the dishes, and the three of them walked out of the restaurant. They supported each other and got on the bus to go home.

And Zhuang Junbo kept watching them until the bus they got on disappeared at the other end of the brightly lit street, then he took out his mobile phone and silently recited the string of numbers he had just entered over and over again, with the corners of his mouth slightly bent up.

Regarding today's unexpected encounter, Lu Fan felt indescribable in his heart. The memory that had been dusty for ten years was slowly opened up, even covering up the blow suffered by today's blind date.

Sitting on the bus, looking at the passing city lights outside the window, Lu Fan's memory went back to ten years ago: he was only 21 years old at that time, a fledgling security policeman who had just graduated from the police academy, because he had excellent grades in the police academy , although he has only been assigned to the Bureau not long ago, many people have high hopes for him as a young man.

At that time, he could be said to be high-spirited, full of longing for the future, always thinking of making better achievements in the bureau and impressing more people.

I remember that it was a sunny and somewhat hot afternoon, he and a few colleagues in plain clothes came to patrol near the train station.The train station is crowded with people, and there are many thieves who sneak into the crowd and look for opportunities to steal from time to time. This period of time happens to be the peak time of travel, and thieves also look for opportunities to commit crimes frequently.In this week alone, the number of theft reports was comparable to the total number of theft reports in the previous month. Therefore, the police station also strengthened the patrolling police force in and around the train station.

Lu Fan is one of the many police forces, and he is mainly responsible for patrolling a bus stop near the train station.

A policeman with profound work experience can easily tell who is a thief and who is an ordinary citizen. Not long after Lu Fan stood under the bus stop sign, a short and thin figure wearing a blue shirt entered his curtains.

There are three kinds of people waiting for the bus: one is anxiously stretching their necks to look in the direction of the bus;

But this person is different, he shuttles around the people waiting for the bus from time to time, or squats down to wait and see, his eyes always stay on the luggage that everyone is carrying, as if he is waiting for the bus, but in fact his attention is basically focused on other people.

Lu Fan has been observing this young man who looks to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. His hair is disheveled like it hasn't been combed for a few years, and the wide shirt is dragged to his thighs. He can't tell what kind of texture it looks old and doesn't fit well. Pants, and a pair of ordinary flip-flops under his feet.The facial features are quite straight, the thick bangs completely cover the eyes, and the eyes keep floating back and forth on everyone, and the body shakes and sways a few times from time to time, looking very casual, but in Lu Fan's eyes, he In fact, it's very tense-everyone who does bad things will be nervous.

Lu Fan not only looked at this person, but also searched nearby. He knew that when stealing, there were usually one or two more people covering him, but he observed for a long time, but he did not find this kid's accomplice.

Could it be that he just did it alone?

Lu Fan narrowed his eyes.

A bus full of passengers drove by, the short and thin boy bit his lower lip and stood up.

At a glance, the car was full of people, and the back door only opened, and the people in the car were eating dumplings one after another. When no one got out of the car, the front door opened, and the people who had crowded in front of the car door rushed in. Like rushing to reincarnate, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, and you don't give in.

Some people who were afraid of crowding stood under the car frowning and waiting, but this kid seemed to think it was not crowded enough, so he just squeezed it in with his thin body.

Because he has been observing his movements, Lu Fan clearly saw every movement of the boy's hands. When he took out a wallet from a man in front of him and stuffed it into his pocket before retreating, Lu Fan strode forward. The strong right hand firmly grabbed the kid's wrist, and forced him to move a few steps away from the bus!

The boy's face changed, and before he could resist, Lu Fan stumbled and pinned him to the ground, while reaching for the handcuffs on his waist.

This scene alarmed many people, and the people around avoided it one after another. Some people with quick minds had already lowered their heads to search for their belongings.

"My wallet! My wallet is gone!"

Lu Fan was about to put handcuffs on the person who was pressed by him on the ground, when a man rushed over and shouted at him in shock: "Mr. Police, my wallet was stolen, find it for me quickly, the contents inside Very important!"

Lu Fan looked up at the man, frowned, lowered his head to rummage through the thief, and quickly found the man's wallet.

"Yes, yes, this is my wallet!"

When the man saw his wallet, he was so excited that he snatched it away without thinking about anything else!Before Lu Fan could say anything in the future, the thief who had been pressed by him on the ground suddenly turned around and waved his hand vigorously. Lu Fan only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and subconsciously dodged backwards, but was still struck by something sharp. Leaving a wound on the face.

It was also in such a flash, the thief kicked Lu Fan away who was pressing on him, rolled on the ground, got up and ran away from the crowd!

Lu Fan didn't even have time to wipe off the wound on his face, he glared at the stunned man, and ran to chase after him.

This chase covered four streets, sweating profusely, and thirsty, until the thief was chased into a dead-end alley before finally stopping.

The desperate thief pulled out the switchblade in his arms in a panic. Seeing the gleaming knife, the wound on Lu Fan's face that had been cut open not long ago began to ache.

Looking at the boy in front of him who seemed to be less than 17 years old, seeing the panic and confusion in his eyes, seeing the trembling hands holding the knife, and seeing his unfit clothes, Lu Fan felt inexplicably sore in his heart.

If I had other options, I wouldn't be on this road today.

"Put down the knife, put down the knife! If you hurt someone, your future will really be ruined!"

If it is said that this sentence was unintentional, when the boy let go of the knife in his hand and collapsed on the ground with red eyes, Lu Fan really understood the weight of this sentence in the boy's heart.
