One 1(1/2)
"You...oh, I forgot that you are a bookworm." It was quite a coincidence to meet an acquaintance here.
Wen Yaqing covered her stomach and looked embarrassed: "I have something to do to go to the bathroom. Can you line up for me?"
She slid her legs slightly, and cold sweat appeared on both sides of her forehead. I agreed. People have three urgent needs, but they are familiar anyway.
"Thank you." She folded her hands and said thanks to me, gave me the book, picked up her bag, and trotted to the bathroom.
I thought she would be back soon, but I didn't expect that the people waiting for me to line up were gone, and Wen Yaqing hadn't come back yet.
"Oh, forget it, help people to the end." I took the book and handed it over.
This writer named Fu Lin dressed very ordinary, but the combination was very good, giving people a sense of virtuous, dignified and well-educated. She took the book and asked while signing it, "What is your name?"
"Oh, elegant and elegant."
Perhaps the name she heard was not consistent with the male voice, she paused when she held the pen and looked up at me: "Is this your name?"
"Uh, no, I'm queuing for someone else, my real name is Xiao..."
"Snow!" writer Fu Lin exclaimed and grabbed my hand.
All the book friends, staff, and myself, were confused.
What's going on?
...
In front of us was an intellectual woman, dressed in a simple manner, with soft faces and melancholy eyes. We sat face to face in the cafe, and we were silent for a long time.
Her name is Fu Lin, and she is "Xiao Se"'s mother, and this is the first time I met her.
I learned in Yitong's diary that she was a woman who loved literature very much, otherwise she would not have planned to give her children a well-inspired name like "Qin and Se" and "Ming". I didn't expect to meet in this way.
The atmosphere was a bit dull and accompanied by embarrassment. Because I didn't know what to say, I had no feelings for her at all.
"Xiao Se..." She finally spoke with apology in her tone: "I specially arranged the signing meeting in Shanghai this time, just to come to see you, but I didn't expect it to be so coincidental... Have you read the book I wrote?"
"No, I'm queuing for my friends."
"Oh, oh." Her glowing eyes immediately dimmed.
Stir the coffee, the spoon and the cup wall collided, and then there was silence again.
"I heard from your father that you dropped out of school?"
"Well, I'm so old, I feel like I should support myself."
"Then you shouldn't waste your studies."
Listening to her slightly regretful tone, I stared at her glasses and smiled: "I'm afraid it's too late to say these things now?"
After hearing what I said, Fu Lin opened his mouth and sighed helplessly: "Hey, I know I was not good at that time. If you are willing to leave with me..."
"Go with you?" I suddenly laughed, "Where is Xiao Yitong?"
Her face froze: "I...I can find a way to find her biological parents."
"Forget it." I shook my head. It was another way to find it. Even if I found it, they might not accept the children who were abandoned by themselves.
"Xiaoser, think about it carefully. You are living alone now and still bringing that girl. Not only do you waste your studies, but your future is worrying. You need a family, and I can give it to you what your drunkard father can't give it to you. Over the years, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother, and I can make up for it in the future."
"Some things are not given, they are not given, and they are not compensated." I took a sip of coffee, tsk, it was too bitter, and it was not as good as Coke. "I, now playing games for a living, I live a good life, and I have a bunch of good brothers and good friends. The money I earned happened to be lucky enough to support myself, oh, and Yitong."
If you don’t have any speculation, I’m just a gamer and I’m still far away from writers and I can’t afford to climb.
"Sorry, I'll leave in advance." I turned around and prepared to leave.
"Can you call me mom?"
At the entrance of the coffee shop, I stopped and the figure of the strange woman in front of me was blurred in an instant. I seemed to see a mother wearing a kitchen dress calling guests, and there was also a busy figure of Brother Hao next to me.
"Mom..." In her expectant gaze, I swallowed the words on my lips, "Sorry."
I bowed slightly, turned and left. After traveling through time for a whole year, Xiao Yitong was my true sister, but she was not my mother.
...
When I left the door, I lowered my head and thought about things, my long legs suddenly appeared in front of me.
I subconsciously gave in, but the owner of the leg stood in front again.
I looked up and saw Wen Yaqing with an angry face: "How can you bully Teacher Fu!"
"Teacher Fu? Oh, you said Fu Lin, she is my mother."
"What? Fu Lin is your mother?" Wen Yaqing asked in surprise.
Passers-by turned around when they heard the movement. I hurriedly pulled her aside: "That's right, don't be surprised."
"What does it mean? She won this year's Writers Association Award and is a famous writer. I have read several of her books, including novels, poems, memoirs and prose. She is a model of contemporary female writers!"
"Oh." I nodded. It turned out that Xiao Se's mother was so awesome. No wonder she said that she would have a future if she asked me to follow her.
When Wen Yaqing heard that we were mother-son relationship, she slightly put away her anger: "When I just passed by at the door, I saw her seemingly crying. Did you make her angry?"
I smiled: "Angry? I didn't have the chance to make her angry since I was a child. My parents divorced, and she left. I wrote a book called "Isolated Island" with both fame and fortune, but I turned me into an orphan. I may not know her much now."
After being hit by my call, Wen Yaqing immediately understood what was going on. She lowered her head and was silent, embarrassed to say anything else.
In order not to make the atmosphere even more stiff, I gave her the book signed in: "Hey, your book, and the signature."
She took the book and hugged it tightly in front of her chest.
"By the way, why did you spend so long in the toilet?"
"My relative is here."
I staggered. Today is a good day. I met my mother and she met my aunt.
...
In the evening, I took Yitong home from school and held various gifts in my hand. Because I really didn't know what girls like, I bought all the gifts. I had money and was not too willful.
Holding Yitong's little hand, I entered the door and turned on the light.
Still pitch black.
"Hmm?" I pressed the switch again, but the light still didn't light up.
There is a power outage? What's going on? It's just at this time.
Yitong has a rare good attitude: "Light the candle, it will light up when it lights."
"Well, okay." I groped in the darkness, found the table in the center, and placed everything on it.
Dongdong, Dongdong, Dongdong...
What sound?
Putting down the cake in my hand, I bent down slightly, listening with my ears on my ears. It seemed that there was a sound of breathing, and... a heartbeat?
"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao?" I whispered to Shiba Inu Xiaoxiao, but received no response.
It's strange, it usually screams and runs out.
Could it be that a thief has entered the family?
Just when I was suspicious, I heard a slight sound, and then a scream: "Ah!"
"Who?" I was facing a great enemy.
Bang, a soft thing hit me directly. I subconsciously grabbed it forward and then fell to the ground with a bang.
When I brushed, a white light lit up in front of me and the light turned on.
“Surprise!”
Dongdong Dangdang, all kinds of sounds came. Whistles, horns, and even colorful flags floated on their heads.
I opened my eyes with difficulty, and the few people in front of me were acquaintances: Gu Nan, Bu Zhi, Leather Shoes, Wang Chenyu, and even Cheng Qing were there.
"you……"
Bu Zhi was the first to bear the brunt and picked up Xiao Yitong who opened her mouth in surprise: "Happy birthday to our little princess!"
Leather Shoes laughed: "I'll just say it's a free meal, and today's cakes need to be enough."
Wang Chenyu let go of his hand covering his smile, and the dog that broke free from the bondage immediately started to run around happily.
Gu Nan, wearing a very funny mask, began to tinker with music at the table. Cheng Qing was wearing a formal outfit and coughed twice: "Uh, I'm not talented, I will act as the host of Miss Xiao Yitong's birthday dinner, first..."
In the small room, when there were too many people, the atmosphere was instantly stirred up.
Xiao Yitong was giggling, and she was rarely seen so happy.
"By the way, can you let Bai Yu go?" Bu Zhi inserted his waist, but there was a hidden smirk on his face.
Only then did I realize that I was holding Bai Yu in my arms, my face was blushing. No need to think, it must be their good thing to be together with Bai Yu.
"Party starts!" As soon as Gu Nan played music, Bu Zhi brought a small birthday hat and put it on Yitong.
The house was filled with joy.
The leather shoes on the side have begun their foraging journey - eating small cakes.
