"It doesn't matter." Later Guan Rong said, "If you don't want to, just let it go."

Chen Yuechi looked like he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.There have been many times, Guan Rong knew that Chen Yue had something to say, but he didn't wait.

Not exactly a bad break up, but it was a silent night anyway.

After Guan Rong finished speaking, he went back to his room, tossed and turned in the middle of the night, and fell asleep in the early morning.When I woke up, it was already dawn, and Chen Yuechi was not at home, but there was breakfast on the table.

I don't know when it started, but Guan Rong's three meals became so regular.Originally thought that Chen Yuechi had gone out, Guan Rong suddenly thought of something while eating, went into the kitchen, and pulled off a post-it note on the refrigerator.

"Brother, happy new year. I'll go back to my hometown and see you in the next year. Eat well."

Spring Festival train tickets are hard to buy, and Chen Yuechi is definitely not going home just because he wants to go home on a whim, and he doesn't know how long he has secretly planned.The inscription "Chen Yuechi" in big characters was so dazzling that Guan Rong could hardly breathe.He suddenly felt that all the good temper in his life had been wasted on Chen Yuechi.

Guan Rong didn't feel much about how boring the New Year's Eve was.From being kicked out of the house to now, he is used to living alone, so what about the new year, how different is it from usual?

Although Chen Yuezhi was not around, he still went shopping for the New Year according to the plan.It's rare for him to make arrangements for his life, and if he manages to do it once, he must implement it.

But from the east of the market to the west of the market, he didn't know what to buy at all.Later, I met two high school students who set up a stall selling couplets. There was no one in front of the stall, so he went to ask for something and opened a ticket for the children.On the way home, I saw a flower shop again. I went in and bought a pot of kumquats. I made a detour and sent them to Sister Min's house.

It was Bottle who opened the door, and when he saw him, he asked, "Where's Brother Yue?"

Guan Rong entered the house and closed the door, took a look at Sister Min, and asked, "When did your Brother Yue come to your house?"

"Why don't you come?" said the bottle, "I want him to come to my house as a guest."

Guan Rong replied, "He's gone home."

"What home?" asked the bottle.

"Go back to his hometown." Guan Rong said.

Sister Min, who was watching TV, turned around, and before opening the bottle, Guan Rong added: "My hometown is where he grew up."

In the early morning of 29, Guan Rong took out the couplets and prepared to paste them, but found no glue in the room.Simply give up.

He slumped on the sofa, listening to the occasional gunfire outside.Put your arms over your eyes, and your eyes will be pitch black. After staring for a long time, swirling patterns will appear in the pitch black.It has been several days, except for Chen Yuechi who sent a text message the day before yesterday, telling Guan Rong that he arrived home safely and telling him to eat well, there is no news at all.

Guan Rong didn't have the idea of ​​actively contacting him, but he kept guessing about Chen Yuechi's status all the time.

The window was not closed, and after observing the world after closing his eyes for a while, there was an unusually clear sound of laughter coming from the garden of the community, Guan Rong stood up abruptly, and made a call.

The road to town A is not easy.

When Guan Rong made his decision, he didn't remember anything like the Spring Festival travel season. He had never had such a hard time going out. After several twists and turns, he asked someone to buy a train ticket. Not only was it a slow train, but it was also a station ticket.

After he got the ticket at the train station, he hesitated for a long time. People behind him kept pushing and shoving, and it was difficult for him to even turn around.Finally, he gritted his teeth and completely accepted the fate of being trapped by the flow of people.

From getting on the train to getting off the train, it took nearly twenty hours. Guan Rong insisted on not eating a mouthful, and only drank half a glass of water.It was already the noon of the New Year's Eve when he arrived at the terminal, he glanced at himself inadvertently on the window glass through the black heads, and immediately turned his head away.My legs were sore and swollen, most likely due to swelling.I wanted to find a place to sit for a while after getting out of the car, but I didn't find a chance until I was pushed out of the train station by the crowd.

People came to solicit business non-stop after leaving the station, making people's ears ringing.Guan Rong was bumped several times by a pedestrian's huge package, and his anger was bubbling up in his heart.

He found a driver to ask for directions, and learned that it would take two hours to get to town A by car.After thanking him politely, he walked to the side of the road opposite the station and smoked two cigarettes in one go.

Guan Rong felt that he had never been so impulsive in his life. When he was with Zhang Ke, he severed the father-son relationship, and resigned from the unit to personally destroy his future. He felt that everything was under control.Now he just chased Chen Yuechi through several cities, but he suddenly felt that he was sick and a little messed up.

What a whim.

Of course, the bus ticket could not be bought, so after a long silence, Guan Rong got on the black car to Chen Yue to take care of the family.When I got to the place, I found that the town is actually not small, and it has everything that should be there. It can be regarded as a small city.It's almost time for the New Year's Eve dinner, and most of the shops on the street are closed, but the excitement that is special to New Year's Eve is still everywhere, making the town a bustling scene.

Follow the address all the way to find the past, and finally found an alley.According to the house number, Guan Rong stopped in front of a small courtyard.

The yard is not big, and it takes about ten steps to walk from the entrance of the yard to the entrance of the house. The house is made of blue bricks, with two floors, and a creeper is hung from the roof, and vines cover the gap between the two floors.Through the branches of the ivy, Guan Rong saw that the glass of the two windows on the second floor was broken.

It can be seen that no one has lived in it for a long time.And there should be no one at the moment.

After standing for a while, a neighbor came to him and asked him, "Brother, who are you looking for?"

Guan Rong asked: "Hello, may I ask this... is this boy at home?"

"Who else is there in his family!" The neighbor was surprised. "Who are you from his family? Why haven't you seen it? Why are you looking for someone at this time?"

Guan Rong said: "I am Chen Yuechi's teacher."

The neighbor smiled: "Oh, hello teacher, the teacher is really a good teacher, and I will come to see him after the Chinese New Year!"

"Is he not here?" Guan Rong asked, "I heard he came out."

The neighbor thought: "I heard it was released, but we haven't seen anyone, maybe it's not easy to come back."

Guan Rong asked: "Didn't you come back in the past few days during the Chinese New Year?"

"How can I not know if I come back!" The neighbor said, as if Guan Rong was playing some big joke, "This light has never been on!"

Speaking of which, it was getting late, Guan Rong turned his head and saw that the lights of the houses in the alley had been turned on.Turning around again, the house where Chen Yue ran his family was still completely dark.
