At sunset, a group of four people drove home from the park.

Half an hour into the return journey, the carriage was rarely quiet all the way.

Go home and take a shower.

Shen Siyang walked to the desk, unzipped the schoolbag, and packed the things he needed to bring back to school tomorrow.

As soon as I finished pretending, I heard Sang Huaiqi's voice: "Shall we go to bed earlier tonight?"

Shen Siyang stopped his movements, turned around and looked at Sang Huaiqi who was standing quietly beside him.

Sang Huaiqi was dressed in white, his gaze was as gentle as before.

Seeing that Shen Siyang didn't respond immediately, he said again: "Is it okay to take the bus to school tomorrow morning?"

Shen Siyang's expression stiffened visibly.

His hand holding the zipper of the schoolbag tightened uncontrollably, and he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Sang Huaiqi's hand covered his.

Gently let go of his clenched fist, zipped up his schoolbag for him, and then said again: "I'll take the bus to school with you."

Shen Siyang looked down at Sang Huaiqi who was still holding his hand.

After staring at it for a while, he finally nodded.

Shensi Yang's house is not too far from the school, but it's not close either.

If there is no traffic jam, you can get to the school in about 45 minutes by bus.

But there is no direct bus to the school at the station near his home, so he needs to transfer on the way.

First take a bus to the city, and then transfer from the city station to the school.

Early self-study is canceled during the remedial class, and the first class starts at 07:30 in the morning.

Counting the time spent getting up to clean up, having breakfast, and waiting for the bus, Shen Siyang and Sang Huaiqi had to get up at least six o'clock.

So before nine o'clock, the two turned off the lights and prepared to go to bed.

Still the same as before, each person covered a quilt.

The room was plunged into darkness, and Shen Siyang subconsciously glanced at the dividing line formed by different quilts between the two.

After looking down for a while, he didn't ask for the same quilt as he did last night.

Withdrawing his gaze, he breathed lightly and closed his eyes.

The sound of their breathing was mixed with the sound of the air conditioner.

When Shen Siyang's breathing gradually stabilized, Sang Huaiqi who was lying beside him slowly opened his eyes.

He stared at the ceiling above his head for a long while in the dark, then turned slightly sideways and looked at the sleeping person beside him.

The moonlight softened Shen Siyang's sleeping face.

Sang Huaiqi watched Shen Siyang quietly, recalling the night in the last world when Shen Siyang passed out because of a car accident.

In the last virtual world, ever since he reunited with Shen Siyang, he has been doubting the authenticity of the world.

Because everything went so smoothly, Shen Siyang's understanding of him was completely beyond that of a person who had only been together for a week and hadn't seen him for more than two years.

It was the night when Shen Siyang passed out that he really confirmed that there was a problem in the world he lived in.

Shen Siyang's assumption about the car accident collapsed too realistically.

The car accident in reality did have a certain impact on Sang Huaiqi's life, but he never related the car accident to Shen Siyang for a moment.

He walked the road by himself, and the driver made the mistake.

It was obviously a matter completely unrelated to Shen Siyang, and he couldn't understand why Shen Siyang blamed himself so much.

After experiencing it personally at this moment, he finally fully understood Shen Siyang's painful feelings at the beginning.

When knowing that a certain decision of one's own may be one of the links that contributed to a certain unfortunate event, people can't help but wonder, if I hadn't made this decision at the beginning, would this unfortunate event not have happened.

Just as Shen Siyang would blame himself for the help he had given Sang Huaiqi, Sang Huaiqi also blamed himself for appearing uncontrollably at this moment.

If he hadn't briefly appeared in Shen Siyang's life, Shen Siyang wouldn't have been trapped by him.

I can't help but wonder whether such appearance and companionship are meaningful.

He even couldn't help but wonder, because he was destined to leave, so he was wrong for being nice to Shen Siyang in the past ten years.

If Sang Huaiqi hadn't been the one who accepted Shen Siyang's help first, he would have fallen into these strange thinking circles and fell into deep self-blame.

Unless one fully stands in the position of the other party and experiences what the other party has experienced, one will never be able to truly empathize.

Sang Huaiqi remembered what Shen Siyang had said to him before entering this world.

——Xiao Qi, I want to walk the way you love me again.

——Come here too, let’s walk the way I love you.

He approached Shen Siyang, and gently hugged the person in front of him into his arms.

"Sorry, I made you so sad."

-

The sun rises late in winter.

Sang Huaiqi woke up Shen Siyang at six o'clock sharp, and it was still foggy outside the window.

Shen Si Yang was so lucky that he didn't stay in bed.

Mimi stared and washed up, and went to a nearby breakfast shop to have breakfast with Sang Huaiqi.

Arrive at the station just in time for the first bus to the city.

It was still early and there was no one in the car.

There are only a few students who catch the early bus and go back to school to make up lessons like Shen Siyang.

Shen Siyang and Sang Huaiqi chose a seat for two at the back.

The bus pulled out of the station, and the sun just came out from the side of the mountain.

The morning is cold and foggy.

The unpopular compartment was as cold as an icehouse.

Shen Siyang huddled on the seat by the window, put his hands in his pockets, and stared at the slowly rising sun in the sky.

His ears were a little cold, and as soon as his pockets were warmed up, he didn't want to reach out his hands out of them, so he shrank his whole body into his thick coat.

As soon as he moved, Sang Huaiqi, who was sitting next to him, stretched out his hand and opened his schoolbag hanging on the back of the front seat.

Sang Huaiqi took out the warm earmuffs in his schoolbag and put them on for Shen Siyang skillfully.

After putting on the earmuffs, he zipped up Shen Siyang's coat to the top.

Withdrawing his hand after the movement, he found that Shen Siyang was staring at him blankly.

The boy's eyes were clean and clear, but compared to the past, they lacked some freshness.

Sang Huaiqi asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Shen Siyang buried half of his face in the collar of his jacket.

After a while, the muffled voice came out: "I thought you wouldn't do these things for me again."

Sang Huaiqi stared at him for a moment, then raised his hand and rubbed his head.

He didn't say anything more about Shen Siyang's words, but said: "From now on, remember to check the weather forecast one day in advance, and put your gloves in your coat pocket in advance when the weather is colder."

Shen Siyang watched Sang Huaiqi without responding.

It wasn't until he looked away after staring at it for a while that he responded softly, "Got it."

The morning bus was very quiet.

There are only occasional chit chats.

Shen Siyang was leaning against the car window, staring at the passing scenery outside the window, and was lost in thought when he suddenly heard the crying voice of the girl in the front seat.

"I may not be in school next term."

The girl beside her hurriedly asked, "Why? Do you want to transfer schools?"

The girl in the front seat was silent for a while, and then a more choked voice sounded: "My parents are divorced, and they want to reorganize their families, and they don't want me."

The girl next to her asked cautiously, "Did they... tell you right?"

Some of the girls in the front seat were speechless: "They were arguing, I heard it."

The atmosphere became extremely gloomy in an instant.

The girl in the front seat choked back her sobs intermittently: "If I hadn't made an appointment to go to school with you today, I wouldn't have wanted to go to school. Anyway, after they don't want me, I still didn't go to school."

The girl next to her comforted her while taking out a tissue: "Don't think that way, it's impossible that you didn't learn. Maybe you heard it wrong? Even... even if this is the case, there must be other ways..."

The car arrived at the station in the city, and the people on board got off one after another.

The bus from the station to the school passes through a commercial area.

Just in time for the beginning of the morning rush hour, Shen Siyang and Sang Huaiqi only got on the bus for two stops, and the car was full of people.

There are a few scattered students, and the rest are office workers rushing to work.

The adults leaned on the handrails of the bus without energy, with their heads lowered and silently swiping their phones.

Shen Siyang leaned forward, and the man in a suit and tie answered the phone in the cold weather.

Nodding and bowing, he was scolded by the person on the other end of the phone.

With red eyes, he resisted and waited for the other party to hang up the phone.

The moment the phone was hung up, tears rolled out of his eyes.

He turned his face to the direction of the car window, wiping away his tears with a small movement that didn't want to be noticed by others.

Then he lowered his eyes and typed on the mobile phone with "crackling".

The screen of the mobile phone was facing Shen Siyang's direction, and Shen Siyang just glanced over it, and the content on the screen clearly fell into the eye sockets.

Man is texting a friend.

[I really can't do it for a minute!Yesterday I worked overtime until two o'clock in the morning, and I slept for two hours when I got home, and I was scolded by an idiot early in the morning! 】

The friend replied him.

【Seriously, you quit your job and find another job. You have to work overtime for at least [-] days this year, right?It’s fine if you don’t have overtime pay, and the leader still says every day that you’re doing something wrong and that’s not right, because a few thousand dollars a month won’t cost you your life and your energy. 】

[Naked words are too risky. 】

[No matter how bad it is, can it be more annoying than your current job?How do you know a new beginning is bad if you don’t try? 】

The man gritted his teeth and tightened his grip on the phone.

A large number of people got off at the business center.

The man in suit and leather shoes left, and his place was replaced by a middle-aged man in a worn coat.

The man was holding a large sack in his hand, his head was tilted to one side, and his mobile phone was held between his shoulders.

"I can't go back this year for Chinese New Year." The man's Mandarin is not standard, and every word he utters is mixed with his hometown accent. "I haven't bought a train ticket."

A childish voice of "Dad" came faintly from the phone.

The man held the sack tightly with one hand, and struggled to free the other hand to hold the mobile phone: "Leave a few days earlier, and you can save more money. During the Chinese New Year, the wages are much higher than other times. When Dad earns money, give it to me." The baby and the baby's mother buy new clothes."

As the man spoke, his eyes turned red.

I don't know if it's because of mentality.

When Shen Siyang traveled with Sang Huaiqi in the past, he saw that everything was bright.

What I saw today was all bitterness.

The bus arrives at a stop near the school.

The two squeezed out of the car and walked slowly to the school gate.

Sang Huaiqi stopped and asked Shen Siyang aloud, "Is school still dismissed at 05:30 on Friday afternoon?"

Shen Siyang nodded.

Sang Huaiqi said again: "Okay, I will pick you up at 05:30 on Friday afternoon, and we will take the bus back together then."

When Shen Siyang heard this, he looked at Sang Huaiqi in a daze.

Sang Huaiqi lightly rubbed his head: "Go in."

Shen Siyang didn't move, just looked at him.

Sang Huaiqi and him looked at each other for a while, and finally, for the first time, he and Shen Siyang discussed a topic that both of them had been reluctant to touch on.

"I won't leave you unprepared."

He stared at Shen Siyang and pondered for a while, and finally followed his heart and walked forward, holding Shen Siyang in his arms.

"I won't leave until the day you are ready."
