Walking Through Fire For You - Chapter 70
Out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Lin Luxiao drove to the suburban drug rehabilitation center to pick up Lin Qi. There were no cars along the road, and the trees on both sides were hurried. There was a single song in the car, “Ordinary Road”.
Nanchu sat in the co-pilot, lowered his head and squeezed the red notebook in his hand. He hadn’t been relieved yet, and he always felt that everything now looked like a dream, and they were still quarreling a few days ago.
Lin Luxiao drove the car earnestly, saw her in a daze, turned his head and glanced at her, he was more calm than Nan Chu.
Calmly receive the certificate.
He didn’t look so excited.
“Open the box in front of you.” Lin Luxiao said without emotion, looking forward.
Nan Chu lowered his head to touch the handrail in front of his position, “This?”
He glanced and nodded.
Nanchu pushed it aside, and there was a small box lying inside.
“take it out.”
At the beginning of Nanchu, he obeyed and did it. When he squeezed the square things into his hands, he was shocked that it should be a contradiction. Before he said, he opened it with joy and couldn’t wait to put it on, and stretched out his slender hand to look left and right.
The style is quite simple, maybe this is more ordinary compared to her previous ones, but in her opinion it is always a bit different. I looked up for a long time and felt that this ring fits me perfectly, as if it had grown on me. .
Nanchu smiled and said: “How do you know the size of my finger?”
Lin Luxiao controlled the steering wheel, without turning his head, a very faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “I don’t know where you are?”
The vehicle drove lonely in the lane, lengthening the memories of the years.
Nanchu remembered that he had just played the marriage report before, and Lin Luxiao liked to twist her fingers to play when he had nothing to do. At that time, he wondered if he had any quirks, such as his own hand control.
At that time, I didn’t think about it, I always felt that this person should be controlled by hand, otherwise every time she used her hands, she seemed to be more excited?
Thinking about it this way, I feel wretched.
No one spoke next.
Lin Luxiao didn’t talk a lot, and he wouldn’t talk more than before after getting married.
The car quickly stopped in front of the drug rehabilitation center.
Lin Qili had a clean and simple head stubble. He was dressed in black, slender and slender. He carried a small black bag in his hand, and his skin glowed white in the sun, completely opposite to his brother.
Compared to the gloomy people before, people look a little healthy.
Seeing Lin Luxiao’s car, he walked over and went straight to the co-pilot.
Opening the door is dumbfounded.
“Nanchu?”
Nan Chu smiled at him, and listened to Lin Luxiao who was beside him, saying, “Sit back.”
Lin Qi nodded, “Oh oh.”
When Lin Qi got in the car, Nan Chu looked at him quietly through the rearview mirror. Although he looked much healthier, he was silent, but he looked more transparent.
The three didn’t say a few words until the car stopped at the entrance of the alley.
Lin Luxiao went to the car, and Nanchu got off at the intersection with Lin Qi. Lin Qicai looked at her and said, “You and my brother?”
Nanchu Huanghuang’s red book: “Just got the certificate.”
Lin Qi’s chin was about to fall.
I waited for Lin Luxiao to come over from behind and slapped him on the back of his head until he realized that this was not a dream.
“gone.”
After speaking, head to the depths of the alley.
The hutong is imprinted with the traces of the years, passing through the windows and flowers, the long river of time is in the eye.
In the hutong courtyard, there is a bronze gate with a trajectory of when I was a child. It was the first time I came here at the beginning of Nanchu. I heard that all the people living here are authentic old Beixun people, and they retain the old Beixun hutong culture.
Nan Yueru’s ancestral home was in Changnan, and later became famous for long-term settlement in Beixun, and then stayed abroad all year round.
This is where Lin Luxiao grew up.
This made Nan Chu very curious about everything, trying to find a trace of him.
When the three of them entered, Lin Qingyuan was playing chess with his old friend, and Secretary Zhang made a table of food inside.
“dad.”
I don’t know who called first.
Lin Qingyuan’s hands stopped in the air and walked around. When he saw Lin Qi, his face sank unconsciously. He turned his head to look at Nan Chu, and he was slightly relieved.
“come in.”
However, the moment Nan Chu saw Lin Qingyuan, something in her mind gradually became clear. She seemed to have seen him, but she forgot where she had seen him. She thought about it for a long time and didn’t remember it.
Instead, Lin Qingyuan was the first to speak, “Little girl forgot me?”
The memories of her childhood spurted, and she was surprised: “Are you Uncle Lin?!”
Lin Qingyuan smiled: “Also called Uncle Lin?”
Nan Chu lowered his head in embarrassment and whispered: “Dad.”
She had never called her father before, and when she shouted, she was shocked, probably because the words were too unfamiliar, and she felt a little awkward. Lin Qingyuan was too clear, and chuckled to hide her embarrassment.
Then, patted the chair beside him, “Come and sit down for a while.”
Nan Chu glanced at Lin Luxiao next to him. The latter said, “Go and sit for a while. I’ll go to the kitchen and have a look. I’ll have dinner later.”
Nanchu nodded obediently.
She obeyed Lin Luxiao’s words, which made Lin Qingyuan feel that this girl was too obedient. He had met Nan Chu once. When she was a child, the girl was not good at words and pretended to be mature, and she was not as lively and innocent as that young girl.
This is also the reason why he disagreed at the beginning. Girls are too gloomy and easy to be extreme. Although pretty is beautiful, they are definitely uncomfortable in life.
But after all…
Later, I thought about Lin Luxiao if he really liked it so much, he didn’t bother to care.
Nanchu sat there and listened to Lin Qingyuan’s question: “How is your mother’s health?”
“pretty good.”
Lin Qingyuan looked at the girl and was so behaved. He smiled and shook his head. “You didn’t tell your mother about Lu Xiao, did you?”
Nan Chu lowered his head and didn’t want to hide from him, so he hummed.
Lin Qingyuan is also an old fox after all, with a heart like a mirror, nodded, and continued to play chess with the opponent without changing his face, but he said to Nanchu: “When will you ask your mother for a meal?”
Early Southern: “Good.”
“When will Lu Xiao leave?”
“The train at night.”
The old man nodded, “Lushan is a place to train people. I heard you went up to find him?”
“Went there a year ago.”
Old and young, sitting together in a quiet chat, outside is dusk, green branches withered, and the picture is quite harmonious.
Lin Luxiao took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, then went into the kitchen to find Secretary Zhang.
Secretary Zhang laughed and teased: “This is married, people look different.”
Lin Luxiao leaned on the door frame with his arms folded, lowered his head and smiled, “You think too much.”
A fish was stuffed in the pot, and the heat blasted the lid of the pot to stew.
Secretary Zhang spooned a spoonful of soy sauce, and said to one side: “The time has passed. The director told me only yesterday that he always remembers that you are still half a child, and in a blink of an eye you have all your daughters-in-law. While the chief is still healthy, he can help you hug your child.”
Lin Luxiao shook his head and smiled helplessly.
“When I was young, you urged me to study hard with Lin Qi, go to college, and go to the military academy. You urged me to find a girlfriend quickly. I won’t find it. It’s over. You urged me to find a job again. , Just urged to get married, right now, got married, urged me to have a child, I have been urged all the way by you, let me slow down?”
Secretary Zhang is a shovel at him, “If you get cheap, you can still sell well!”
In fact, although he had just received the certificate, he and Nanchu had been separated for a year. The two were quite unfamiliar with each other. Although both of them were trying their best to match each other’s habits, they could still feel that they were like Two broken wooden boards tried to piece together, but because of the years of polishing, no matter how they were glued together, there was always one missing corner and one missing, and it was no longer the tightly-seamed wooden board.
Just like yesterday.
Halfway through the call, the two didn’t know what to say. They held the phone for so long and no one spoke. Finally, they hung up in a hurry. They were tired of getting tired of it before and couldn’t find it for a while.
Another example is in the car just now.
He drove, Nanchu lowered his head to play with his mobile phone.
At the same time, the two of them went to grab the water on the storage box without looking. There were two bottles of water, but both of them reached out to the same bottle, their hands just touching each other.
Both of them looked down subconsciously, staying silent for a moment, then retracted their hands at the same time in the next second.
The atmosphere was once embarrassed.
This is a newcomer who has just received a certificate. They did more things than this when they didn’t fall in love.
But it just feels strange.
This is left over this year, and there is no way to dissipate this gap for a while.
Both sides are trying their best to cooperate with each other, but they have tried their best to prove that nothing has changed, but they all know in their hearts that the feeling is very futile, like quicksand on the fingertips and can’t be grasped.
What he can do now is to comply with all her requirements.
As for the child, even if he is pregnant now, he is not by his side.
Lin Qingyuan is really happy tonight. Both sons are there, plus a beautiful daughter-in-law, Secretary Zhang is also rare to stay for dinner.
Picking up chopsticks and adding vegetables, the words became a bit jealous: “You still have a lot of face for the juniors. Usually, why I keep him, Secretary Zhang will not stay with me for dinner. It’s rare to leave my son to eat with us today. , It’s really my old face that still touches your light.”
Secretary Zhang smiled, “Where did you say it? My son is hard to deal with. How can Lu Xiao and the others obedient when they were young, they went to the house without looking at it for a day.”
It was also happy to talk about it during the dinner.
Nanchu was also amused. He couldn’t help holding a piece of fish and put it in his husband’s bowl. “Eat more?”
Lin Luxiao chopsticks the rice.
Lin Qingyuan and Secretary Zhang glanced at the nurse, the atmosphere was quiet for an instant, Lin Qi blurted out: “Sister-in-law, my brother doesn’t eat fish…”
Nan Chu was stunned. The previous scenes came out one after another, but she couldn’t remember whether he would eat fish or not. The two of them spent less time together. Besides, Lin Luxiao ordered her every time he went out to eat. Love it.
She only remembered that he didn’t seem to be picky eaters.
It turns out he doesn’t eat fish.
Well, I wrote it down.
Nanchu was just about to stretch out his chopsticks to pick up the white fish and eat it by himself, but Lin Luxiao put it directly into his mouth and said calmly, “Don’t listen to him nonsense.”
Lin Qi:…
Lin Qingyuan coughed dryly and glanced at Secretary Zhang. The latter also smiled, his eyes turned back and forth-tusk tusk, the hairy patient you hadn’t changed for decades changed it all at once.
When I was young, don’t mention any fish, but Lin Luxiao would barely touch anything with a little fishy smell.
I have beaten it, and I have been hungry. People are very hard-spirited.
Lin Qingyuan let out a long sigh.
It was eight o’clock in the evening before the meal.
Lin Luxiao walked out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and went to pick up the coat on the sofa. Secretary Zhang came from the other side, he asked casually, almost blurting out: “Where is my wife?”
Secretary Zhang pointed to the study, “I’m chatting with the director in it.”
Lin Luxiao looked back at the closed door, then turned to the door to smoke.
When Nanchu came out, he just finished taking one, pinched and bent over and twisted into the flowerbed beside him, “Did the chat?”
Nan Chu nodded and walked behind him, her tall back illuminating her petite body, which fits perfectly.
He glanced down at Nanchu’s white and slender wrist with a green and verdant bracelet. Knowing that he didn’t ask anything, he drove directly, “Let’s go, I have to go to take you home.”
…
The car drove downstairs in Nanchu.
Nanchu didn’t rush to get out of the car, unfastened the seat belt, sat for a while, and said, “My house has not paid the balance yet. It’s a simple decoration. There is still some furniture. You can move in after you buy it. , I will wait for you to come back and buy it together?”
Lin Luxiao lowered the car window and lit a cigarette, “You decide, it’s hard for me to make a holiday, your house is about to expire, don’t drag it.” After speaking, he dusted the soot and took out his key from the box. , “My new partner, it’s really impossible. You go to live with me first, everything inside is open.”
Nanchu took it, feeling that the key was hot.
“Well, can you call over there?”
Lin Luxiao glanced at her, “I will call you when I’m not too busy.”
“Okay. I’ll wait for your call.”
She lowered her head, and just thought about a lot of things to explain on the road, but couldn’t remember it at once.
Seeing her silence, Lin Luxiao said again: “If you have something to do, you can find my dad or Shen Mu University’s Secretary Liu Zhang. I have already explained it.”
Not an explanation.
Before leaving, I went to see Shen Mu and Liu, and talked to them about their marriage by the way.
The two estimated that they have not slowed down yet.
He leaned on the seat, with one hand lying idle on his lap, one hand hanging outside the window, with a cigarette between his fingertips, and taking a sip from his mouth from time to time, looking lazy.
“Anything else to say?”
Nan Chu shook his head, always feeling empty in his heart. It was obvious that both of them were in love, but they felt that there was not enough energy.
Lin Luxiao turned her head inadvertently and found that she was staring at herself.
The moonlight sheds the dust behind him, the shadows of the trees are heavy, and the wind is dancing.
Thoughts moved.
He pinched the cigarette, stretched his long hand to clasp the back of her head, and someone leaned over and pressed her to the co-pilot.
Nanchu was panting lightly, Lin Luxiao was spraying hot air in her ears, walking along the roots of her ears to her neck, holding her face with one hand, pressing her thumbs on her cheeks, and piercing with four fingers. Her hair.
For so long, the only thing that has not changed is his kiss.
He seemed to crush her fiercely.
