night tide recedes

Song Ran contacted Yan Ming.

He left in a hurry. After renting the house, he hadn't visited it yet, and the key was still in Yan Ming's hand.

The evening wind in early summer brought a slight sense of dryness and heat. Song Ran took the suitcase and got into the taxi, until she saw Yan Ming, she still felt unrealistic.

He actually said goodbye to Shen Wenfei just like that.

Song Ran was a little distracted, but in fact, after he stepped out of Shen Wenfei's residence, the last glimpse of Shen Wenfei's figure kept flashing in his mind, so his perception of the outside world was a little slow.

After Yan Ming called him twice, his soul wobbled back to its place. Song Ran looked at Yan Ming who was leading the way for him, and said embarrassedly, "I didn't hear what you just said."

Yan Ming was not angry, but smiled, "I will take you to meet the owner of the fast food restaurant tomorrow to finalize the matter."

Song Ran nodded her head in a daze, tried her best to smile and said yes.

He was clearly looking forward to being able to live independently, but when he came to this point, he was not very happy, probably because he was really reluctant to part with Shen Wenfei.

The house is rented in an apartment near C University. Most of the people living in it are students of the school. There are four households on the first floor. Song Ran followed Yan Ming to the fifth floor by taking the elevator, and walked to the door of the second room. During the daze, Yan Ming stuffed the key into Song Ran's hand and motioned him to open it himself.

This is the first time Song Ran has his own residence in these years. Although he is still a little dazed, he is also happy.

As soon as the door was opened, Yan Ming flicked on the light in the living room, and the bright incandescent lamp gave a clear view of the house.

The interior decoration is very simple, but refreshing, with off-white tiles, gray cloth sofa, a sunflower oil painting hanging on the wall, the small balcony is open, the wind blows in, the curtains move slightly, it is very warm, Song Ran I noticed that there are fresh foreign peonies on the table, inserted in a porcelain white vase, and the orange and white flowers are alternated, bringing some freshness to the room.

Seeing Song Ran looking at the flowers, Yan Ming felt a little cramped, "Time is urgent, I didn't think of a gift for your new home, let's just make do with the flowers."

Song Ran has been tinkering with fresh-cut flowers these years when he has nothing to do, but they are all for the family. He did not expect that Yan Ming was the first person to send him flowers. He was surprised and moved, and his smile was a little real. , "Thank you, I like it very much."

Yan Ming laughed so hard that he showed his small canine teeth, and introduced the house to Song Ran, "The kitchen is here. Although it is a bit small, it can meet daily life. There is also a bedroom. I specially asked the landlord to find a room that can't be exposed to the sun. It won't be too hot."

Seeing the new home and the lively Yan Ming talking in his ear, Song Ran felt a little down-to-earth.

Before entering the bedroom, Song Ran was a little worried that his luggage was too simple and he didn't bring sheets or bedding, but when the light came on, he found that Yan Ming had already prepared it for him.

"I thought you would move here in the next few days. I went to the supermarket this morning and bought a four-piece suit. I don't know if you like the style or not?"

Not only the four-piece suit, Yan Ming has also made a lot, as long as it is just needed daily necessities, Yan Ming has considered it, and even the hygiene has been cleaned. Song Ran is really moving in with a bag, and no one else has moved. The times were wild and chaotic.

Yan Ming looked careless, but in fact he was the most considerate, Song Ran didn't know how to thank him, and in the end he could only express his infinite gratitude with a pale thank you.

"Brother Ran," Yan Ming's eyes flashed with a star-like smile, "You don't have to be polite to me, we are good friends, and I have always been very good to friends." After a pause, "If you change your identity, I will It can be better."

Song Ran subconsciously asked, "What identity?"

Yan Ming didn't want to act too hastily, so he made a fool of himself and raised his eyebrows playfully, "I'll tell you later."

After all this tossing, it was almost ten o'clock, and Yan Ming had to go back to school.

Song Ran wanted to send him downstairs, but Yan Ming refused to let him. He blocked the door and said after thinking about it, "Brother Ran, I'm glad you can come. To be honest, after renting a house for you, I'm afraid You regret it."

In Yan Ming's view, Song Ran is vacillating and may change his mind at the last moment, but Song Ran still took this step bravely. He is sincerely delighted. Of course, these joys are also mixed with some unknown secret thoughts.

Song Ran shook his head, "I won't regret it."

Once he has gone out, it will be difficult for him to turn back.

After sending Yan Ming away, the room suddenly became quiet. Facing the unfamiliar environment, Song Ran realized so clearly that she would be the only one living in the future. There was no trace of Shen Wenfei in this room, but when Shen Wenfei was alone, It was as if oppressed from all directions, Song Ran couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to.

He didn't dare to rest, and despite his physical and mental exhaustion, he continued to pack his luggage non-stop.

Only when he gets busy can he stop thinking about Shen Wenfei.

After sorting the luggage, Song Ran began to check what was missing in the house, and took notes one by one with the memo.

Song Ran lived with Shen Wenfei for these years, and his life was good. Most of the things in the house were arranged by Shen Wenfei. He only needed to take good care of Shen Wenfei's daily life. When he lived alone, he realized that he had to buy more than he imagined. much.

There was a lack of a refrigerator in the room, Song Ran searched for the brands he had used before in his memory, he was startled when he saw the price, and silently closed the page.

Although the refrigerator used to be easy to use, he couldn't squander the savings in his hands like this. Fortunately, Song Ran also had a hard life, and he planned to go to the home appliance city to buy a cheap brand to make do with it tomorrow, so he felt relieved.

Song Ran was busy working until 12:30 before lying down on the bed.

He was obviously extremely sleepy, but he couldn't fall asleep when he closed his eyes, thinking about Shen Wenfei back and forth.

From the meeting when he was young to the parting today, every bit of it is clearly imprinted in the depths of his memory, he can't help but wonder if Shen Wenfei is also recalling their past at this moment?

The more he thought about it, the more sober he became, Song Ran didn't squint for a while until it was dawn.

The biological clock woke up Song Ran on time at 07:30. He was still a little confused. He got up subconsciously and wanted to prepare breakfast for Shen Wenfei. When he opened the door and walked out of the bedroom, looking at the strange scene in front of him, he suddenly realized that he had already parted ways with Shen Wenfei. .

The uncomfortable emotions that had been suffocated all night suddenly poured out at this moment, Song Ran stood blankly in the empty room, unable to get out of the loneliness for a long time.

Afterwards, he was really the only one.

Fortunately, time did not allow Song Ran to hurt the spring and autumn too much, he made an appointment with Yan Ming at the north gate of C University at ten o'clock, and quickly packed up and left the door.

Yan Ming's friends had already greeted them in advance, and the two of them went all the way to the fast food restaurant. When they met the boss, he explained their intentions, and the boss warmly welcomed them in.

As it was close to the meal time, the back kitchen was preparing the dishes for noon. The boss took them in for a visit. Song Ran looked at them curiously. In the small back kitchen, two employees were frying garlic eggplant and Shredded pork with green peppers, the huge range hood was humming, and it was extremely hot, and Song Ran soon broke out in a thin sweat.

"Mr. Song, it's hot here, let's go out and talk." The boss was sweating, took out two pieces of paper and wiped them casually, went outside, and raised his hand politely, "You sit down."

Song Ran was still very curious, and looked in from time to time. He used to work in food stalls as a waiter and dishwasher, but he also helped in the back kitchen. An illusion of going back in time through time, familiar yet unfamiliar.

A few people sat down and talked about the business of the store. Song Ran didn't talk much, and it was not like buying vegetables in the vegetable market to bargain. The process of chatting was a bit stuttering. He would speak up, so the negotiation went smoothly, and the transfer contract was finalized to be signed in half a month.

It happened to be meal time, and the boss asked two of them to come down for dinner. Song Ran was also curious about how many customers there were usually, so she agreed.

After eleven o'clock, people came to the store one after another. Most of them were students of C University. Song Ran ate the dishes absent-mindedly, looking at them non-stop. Most of the students ordered two vegetarian dishes and one for each. Meat and vegetables cost about 12 yuan. The store provides free soup. Today is seaweed egg drop soup. Students who eat in the hall usually scoop a bowl.

He watched it with enthusiasm, as if he had entered a new world, and gradually forgot to eat, until Yan Ming waved his hand in front of his eyes, and he came back to his senses.

"Brother Ran, there is still half a month left. Even if you are impatient to be the boss, you have to eat first."

Yan Ming's ridicule made Song Ran a little embarrassed, he smiled implicitly, "I want to see which dishes the guests like."

Song Ran is relatively good at observing what tastes other people like. After all, he spent seven years studying what a person likes to eat, and he inevitably thought of Shen Wenfei, feeling melancholy for a while.

The two of them stayed in the shop sooner, almost all the ten dishes today were sold out, and there was a salt-baked shrimp dish that was especially popular, Song Ran silently remembered it in his heart.

In the afternoon, Yan Ming took Song Ran to a nearby supermarket. Song Ran proposed to buy a refrigerator. Who would have thought that Yan Ming had already anticipated Song Ran's thoughts, and said proudly, "I mentioned it to the landlord the day before yesterday, and he said You can send a new one to your door, if you need it, I'll just contact the landlord directly."

This is the most convenient, Song Ran hastily agreed, he doesn't have any requirements on the brand of the refrigerator, as long as it can freeze things.

The two of them bought some necessities in the supermarket and carried out large and small bags. Yan Ming helped Song Ran a lot in the past two days. Song Ran thanked him again and again. When you arrive, cook for me yourself and treat me to a meal."

Song Ran readily agreed, and the two of them carried shopping bags all the way to the apartment, and swiped their cards upstairs while talking and laughing.

Song Ran's downcast smile, Yan Ming touching Song Ran's shoulder, and the shopping bags in their hands, looked like a couple living together in the eyes of outsiders.

No one noticed that in the car parked at the corner of the street, there was a piercing gaze that could clearly see their paired figures clearly.

With the disappearance of their backs, their eyes gradually dimmed until it was so dark that there was no light at all.

The author has something to say: Xiao Shen: I'm so mad at me, I'm so mad at me.

It's not that Song Ran can't leave Shen Wenfei, it's that Shen Wenfei can't leave Song Ran.
