Chapter 65
Chapter 64
Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu set off at around seven o’clock, and it was already early morning when they arrived at the border town of Yuncheng.
When getting out of the car, Xia Shutong couldn’t help lowering her head and licked the corners of her lips, her complexion was a little complicated. In the car just now, she recognized the scene outside at a glance. This is indeed the place where she lived since she was a child. When she was very young, Wang Xiaoning took her to sell groceries near the station. These vague memories of the past suddenly came alive and flooded into her head little by little.
Whether it is Xia Shutong or Yun Feiwu, they haven’t been here for many years. After walking out of the station, the two looked at each other, and a little nostalgia flashed in their eyes.
Compared with the past, the town does not seem to have changed in any way. After leaving the bus, there is an old bus station outside, and some old buses are parked in twos and threes. The driver is leaning against the car, yawning, or talking freely while smoking a cigarette.
Outside the station, within a few steps, is the main urban area of the town. There was no one on the narrow street, no street lights, and most of the lights in the surrounding rooms were turned off, making it eerily quiet.
Ten years ago, in the middle of the night, there were often spectacular scenes of gangsters fighting with each other with iron bars. Now that there are fewer and fewer people in the town, the law and order has improved a lot.
The two randomly found a small hotel to live in.
The layout of the room is very simple, not even comparable to the bungalow rented by the crew of “Track” in the mountains, and it has a faint musty smell. But the two of them didn’t care, put on sleeping bags, hugged each other and fell asleep.
It was very late now, and because of the hours of driving, even Yun Feiwu was too tired to bear it, so he just kissed Xia Shutong’s lips lightly before going to bed.
The next day, nine o’clock in the morning.
The light penetrated into the room from the cracks in the old curtains and sprinkled in the center of the quilt.
Xia Shutong yawned, opened his eyes lazily, and then withdrew his head from Yun Feiwu’s arms, and met those gentle and affectionate gray eyes.
Xia Shutong almost didn’t think about it, so she slowly moved forward, rubbing the tip of her nose against Yun Feiwu’s, and touching her forehead, and after a while, the two got up from the bed. After changing clothes, Xia Shutong opened the window immediately, and the sober air of the town immediately poured into the room. There were not many people on the street, but the noisy voices of the neighbors could already be heard.
After finishing packing, the two walked to the street together, sat down in a small shop next to them and ordered two rice noodles.
There was no one in the store, only two or three small tables were set up. The tables were greasy, and the two of them didn’t dislike them. They wiped the tables a little, waited for the hot rice noodles to be served, and looked at each other with smiles. Just buried his head and started eating.
Xia Shutong felt that he was in a very strange state now. Just like when I just woke up from a car accident, I can’t remember anything, but I can immediately remember what it is or where it is after seeing a familiar object or place. However, the difference from that time is that Xia Shutong’s memory has recovered most of it so far. When she remembers the things and places around her, related experiences will also emerge in her mind.
Although they are just some fragmented memories, unlike the dream in Xia’s old house, when you wake up from the dream, you will immediately recall a large number of memories, but when these scattered memories are spliced together, a complete picture will be in Xia Shu. Tong mind spread out.
In fact, before departure, Xia Shutong was not sure whether he could find the lost memory after returning here, and whether he could successfully help Yun Feiwu. So they still made two-handed preparations, and went back to Yuncheng for two days on vacation. Xia Shutong worked hard to restore her memory, while Yun Feiwu still practiced new methods of entering and exiting the play according to her original plan.
Halfway through eating, Xia Shutong suddenly raised his head and looked at Yun Feiwu.
“Huh? Ruanruan?” Yun Feiwu immediately looked away from the rice noodle and met her gaze.
“Did we… have breakfast here before?” Xia Shutong asked.
Yun Feiwu nodded, and added: “But it wasn’t at this one before, it was at the next door…it seems to have closed.”
Eating rice noodles together is already something that Yun Feiwu has done since he signed Xinghui.
When they were young, they had no money, and every time they ate instant noodles together, they were very happy. Later, when I got rich, I went to the store to eat every breakfast, not only rice noodles, but also soy milk fried dough sticks and steamed buns. At that time, Xia Ruan often drank half a bowl of soup with a rice noodle bowl, and then lowered the bowl slightly to cover most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, looking straight at Yun Feiwu opposite.
At that time, Yun Feiwu ate very fast, especially when he sucked rice noodles, he would make a squeaking sound, and his eyes were bright, just like a puppy. Xia Ruan especially likes to watch her eat.
Xia Shutong suddenly laughed.
Although there was no one else in the shop, Yun Feiwu on the opposite side ate slowly, dignified and elegant, quite like a movie queen. It’s really… completely different from before.
Yun Feiwu blinked inexplicably.
“Ahem…” Xia Shutong looked away guiltily.
She seemed to remember something again, um… something that Yun Feiwu must never know.
When they first met, Yun Feiwu was just a little over nine years old, and the game of nicknames was popular among children in that age group.
At that time, Yun Feiwu not only looked like a puppy when eating, but also at other times. Full of energy, bouncing around, always full of curiosity about everything around him, and full of wildness when he is fierce, he is no less inferior to boys of the same age in fighting.
So…Actually…cough cough, when Yun Feiwu asked Xia Shutong to help her choose a nickname with a look of hope, the first word “dog” came to Xia Ruan’s head. Wang Xiaoning also said that the more earthy the name, the easier it is to support her. But fortunately, the thirteen-year-old Xia Shutong has already begun to have a basic aesthetic concept, knowing that “dog” is not a nickname suitable for girls, so she wisely changed it to cat cat.
Anyway, they are all four-legged animals, not much difference.
Xia Shutong drank the soup with a guilty conscience, and couldn’t help but think, if it was Yun Feiwu back then, he would have accepted this nickname with satisfaction, and he might even run around like a dog for a few laps? But if Yun Feiwu knew now…then she would definitely make her unable to get out of bed.
No, Yun Feiwu seemed to be called Yun Xiaoxiao in the past… But, except for the name mentioned by Yun Feiwu’s parents, Xia Shutong has almost no impression of these three characters… Why? Xia Shutong couldn’t remember.
For those who couldn’t remember, Xia Shutong didn’t bother to force her to remember, and asked directly: “Maomao, your name was Yun Xiaoxiao before?”
“Yeah.” Yun Feiwu nodded with clear eyes, “I changed my name when I signed the contract with Xinghui.”
Xia Shutong thought for a while, and asked tentatively: “…I changed it?”
Yun Feiwu: “Well, when you looked in the dictionary, you said that the word Feiwu sounded nice and matched the surname Yun, so we secretly took the household registration book to change it.”
Xia Shutong vaguely remembered that it was easy to change names in small towns, and most of the elders in this place were superstitious. Some people even changed their children’s names every time they went to a fortune teller, and they could change their names three or four times a year. So, when the two of their children secretly took the household registration book to change their names, the staff didn’t say anything.
After Yun Feiwu changed her name, no one called her by her old name except her family members. And before she changed her name, Xia Shutong had always called her Maomao, so naturally she had no impression of the word Yun Xiaoxiao.
After eating the rice noodles, the two walked to the street again. Xia Shutong looked at the surrounding buildings, frowned and thought for a while: “Let’s go back to our old home first?”
“Listen softly.” Yun Feiwu never objected to Xia Shutong’s various proposals, “Do you need me to guide you?”
“Well…I’ll think about it myself.”
The town itself is not big, and with Xia Shutong’s recovering memory, there will never be such a thing as getting lost. The two walked around the street for a while, and in less than half an hour, they arrived near the slums on the edge of the town.
The small streets that were dirty, messy and noisy at the beginning have long since become desolate, and not even a single person can be seen. Fortunately, although the dilapidated small building deep in the alley looked a little deserted, it was not yet a dangerous building, and people could still enter.
A few branches were placed outside the house, and some clothes were dried. It is estimated that there are still a few families living in the building.
Xia Shutong held Yun Feiwu’s hand and stood in front of the building for a long time before stepping in.
She remembered that when she was very young, when Wang Xiaoning was still there, the area around this building was always very noisy. Later…from about fifteen or sixteen years old, there were fewer and fewer people here. Later, she followed Yun Feiwu to live in Xinghui’s dormitory in the city, and she never came back to see it.
The inside of the building is gloomy, and the whole building has a musty smell. Xia Shutong searched for memories and walked in the direction of the previous home. When he walked around the twisted and narrow corridors, the image of Yun Feiwu running wildly here before came to mind naturally.
What a silly little animal.
Xia Shutong couldn’t help smiling, and Yun Feiwu immediately cast a puzzled look at her: “Ruan Ruan?”
Xia Shutong: “No, nothing!”
Soon, they arrived at the door of Xia Shutong’s former home. The door of the room is very old, and the seam of the door is seriously deformed. It is almost possible to see the scene in the room through the seam of the door. Xia Shutong didn’t have the key, so the bodyguard finally broke the door open.
As soon as the door was opened, there was a cloud of dust in the room.
The layout of the house is still the same as before, but there is not much furniture left. Xia Shutong remembered that when she moved to the Xinghui dormitory, she obviously only brought some daily necessities with her, and did not touch other things at home. So it could only be that after she left, thieves broke into the house and almost moved everything in the house. This kind of thing often happens here, Xia Shutong is not too surprised.
Xia Shutong pushed open the window first, and looked across, only to see a black window covered with newspapers, probably the neighbor who let her sit on the TV before moved out at some point.
There was nothing to see in the house. The two of them sat on the bed for a while, and when they moved a little, the wooden bed made a “creaking” sound. The wooden bed was very small, only big enough to sleep an adult. Xia Shutong remembered that when Yun Feiwu came to her house, the two of them would hug each other tightly and lie on the bed, chatting with the window open. You can see the starry sky outside.
She also remembered that when Yun Feiwu came to her house a few times ago, she seemed a little nervous. At that time, Xia Shutong knew that Yun Feiwu’s family was rich and lived in a small mansion in the town, so she was afraid that Yun Feiwu would despise her family.
At this moment, Yun Feiwu turned her head, as if she sensed what Xia Shutong was thinking, and looked at her softly: “Ruan Ruan, since the first time I came here, I have always felt that… this place is more like A home.”
In this border town, the Yun family is indeed very rich. Although the Yun family treated Yun Feiwu badly, but with their family background there, no matter how miserable Yun Feiwu was, his quality of life was much better than Xia Ruan, who had been struggling in the slums. However, in the Yun family, there is a father who doesn’t care about Yun Feiwu’s life and death, and a stepmother and younger brother who bully her. Yun Feiwu always felt that she was a superfluous existence when she was a child.
Until I met Xia Ruan.
In the dilapidated hut with only the two of them, Yun Feiwu experienced the feeling of home for the first time.
Yun Feiwu put his hands on the bed, raised his head slowly, and the roots of his ears gradually turned red: “At that time, I was still thinking, if I could leave home and follow you for the rest of my life. Even if I have to live a hard life with you, It’s also better than staying in the previous home.”
Xia Shutong looked at Yun Feiwu’s side face, and his heart became softer and softer. She embraced Yun Feiwu’s neck from the side, and after a while, she burst out into a chuckle: “Maomao, how old were you at that time? Nine years old? Ten years old? Just wanted to be with me forever?”
Verbally, it was Xia Shutong who was molested every time, and this time he could finally go back to molesting.
Therefore, Xia Shutong’s voice couldn’t help being a bit upbeat, light and airy, and extremely proud.
Yun Feiwu’s ears were getting redder and redder. She didn’t refute, and finally nodded slightly: “…um.”
Xia Shutong couldn’t help laughing, raised her head slightly, and kissed Yun Feiwu’s delicate earlobe.
“Maomao, I won’t let you live a hard life.”
When Yun Feiwu was vicious and strong, it was simply overwhelming. But when she was obedient, Xia Shutong also felt so soft-hearted that she wanted to coax her, treat her well, and pamper her from the bottom of her heart.
“Ruan Ruan…” Yun Feiwu lowered his head, his watery eyes were full of affection, very seductive.
Xia Shutong instantly understood her gaze, smiled lightly, and shook her chin again: “Little Maomao, you can’t do it now… go back to the hotel at night. No, the soundproofing of the small hotel is not good. , at least after returning to the crew…”
Yun Feiwu blinked, his expression immediately turned pitiful.
Xia Shutong rubbed her head with both a smile and a smile, then took her hand and got up: “Let’s go, let’s go to another place.”
Yun Feiwu got up and followed Xia Shutong obediently. After only a few steps, he hugged Xia Shutong’s waist from behind and put his chin on her shoulder.
Xia Shutong didn’t break free, but held Yun Feiwu’s hand, and the two walked forward slowly.
Next, they walked around the building. However, Xia Shutong was a little absent-minded, and the memories of the past did not reappear in his mind. Instead, he kept thinking about when he would propose to Yun Feiwu.
Even saying “a lifetime” was out of the question, and of course the next step was a marriage proposal. Then, there’s the wedding, and then the honeymoon, and then…are they going to have kids? Is it adopted, or are they born by themselves? As soon as Xia Shutong’s mind wandered, she thought of going so far away.
When they came back to their senses, the two had already walked out of the corridor and arrived at the river beach behind.
The vegetable fields by the river beach have been barren for a long time, and now they are covered with weeds, but the river water is still as clear as before, without any change.
Xia Shutong glanced over, as if he saw himself sneaking in the vegetable field to steal vegetables, and the two children who were playing in the shallow water while drawing stick figures with sticks.
In the setting sun, the taller girl held the hand of the shorter girl behind her, teaching her how to draw carefully and attentively. Every time a complete stick figure is drawn, the little girl looks back at her with a smile, her eyes are so bright.
Wait…stickman?
Xia Shutong’s eyes suddenly lit up.
She remembered that when she was a child, she really liked to hide by the river beach alone, write and draw on the soil with branches. But after meeting Yun Feiwu, she often brought Yun Feiwu along. Drawing stick figures… She also taught Yun Feiwu.
Xia Shutong immediately remembered the stick figures that Yun Feiwu had drawn on paper during the audition for “Chasing the Light”.
It turned out that since then, Yun Feiwu has been using her methods to try to recall her lost memories. Xia Shutong couldn’t remember it at the time, but fortunately, it’s not too late now.
Xia Shutong thought for a while, she seemed to have stuffed that piece of paper in a drawer in the office, um…look for it next time I go back to the office, frame it and hang it in the bedroom. But wouldn’t it be weird to have a stick figure in the bedroom? How about a living room?
Xia Shutong began to wander the world again.
In the evening, they originally wanted to go to Yun Feiwu’s junior high school, which was the filming location of “Darkness”, but the junior high school did not have evening self-study, and it was already after school at this time, and outsiders were not allowed to enter, so they had to wait until tomorrow .
There was nothing to do in the town, so after dinner, the two returned to the small hotel.
The fourth episode of “Adventures of Mountains and Rivers” happened to start broadcasting tonight. They took a shower early, and then they lay down on the bed and prepared to watch it together.
There was a supporting TV in the small hotel, but the resolution was very low and the signal was not very good, so after trying it out for a while, they decided to use their mobile phones to watch the program.
As soon as the video was opened, the bullet screen was swiped by Jiang Feng x Xi Ao’s cp party.
In the third episode, because of Xi Ao’s phobia of fish, Jiang Feng has been taking care of her. The clips of the interaction between the two have gone viral, so the beginning of the fourth episode attracted a lot of viewers who came here just to enjoy the cp of the two of them.
As soon as the familiar opening music passed, it was the scene of Xi Ao hugging Jiang Feng who was motion sick.
The barrage immediately exploded once.
【Ahhhhhhhhh I’m dead, Xi Gong! Xi Gong! 】
[Baby Jiang Feng, you can’t stand it! And what’s with the face of enjoyment when being picked up? 】
[Jiang Feng’s baby Ma Ma doesn’t allow you to show such an expression! Xi Ao will commit a crime against you! 】
Seeing this, Yun Feiwu couldn’t help but smile: “Ruan Ruan, who do you think will be the top one, Xiao Jiang or Xiao Xi?”
Yun Feiwu’s eyes were bright, shining with gossip.
If it wasn’t for the mobile phone still playing the video, Xia Shutong would have wanted to take a picture of her like this. Who would have thought that Yun Feiwu, who has always been aloof, would show such a cute and silly expression because of gossip about other people’s emotional life?
Xia Shutong couldn’t help poking the tip of her nose: “Gossip cat.”
Yun Feiwu blinked innocently.
Xia Shutong continued: “Ahem, I think… Xi Ao. Jiang Feng, she doesn’t seem to be physically strong.”
“Poor physical strength?” Yun Feiwu chuckled lightly, “Oh~ just like Ruan Ruan?”
Xia Shutong: “…”
She kept her face as cold as possible, and hummed, “Continue watching the show.”
Yun Feiwu leaned forward persistently: “Soft, soft~”
Xia Shutong couldn’t hold back any longer, and took Yun Feiwu’s head into his arms, and said softly, “Hey, watch the show, didn’t I talk about it today, after returning to the crew…”
Yun Feiwu smiled slyly: “What else…? Oh, Ruan Ruan wanted to do that kind of thing. I obviously just wanted to act coquettishly, but if you must think so, I don’t mind…”
Xia Shutong stretched out her paw to her face, pinched and kneaded her vigorously.
…another night of wanting a dog training guide.
Xia Shutong even regretted it a little, why didn’t he bully her a few times during the day today when the pup was being obedient?
Thinking so, after rubbing enough, Xia Shutong still lowered his head slightly, and offered a kiss on his own initiative. After the entanglement, Xia Shutong almost fell into Yun Feiwu’s arms. Yun Feiwu took out a tissue and wiped the crystal fluid from the corner of her mouth for her, then picked up the phone that was thrown aside, and continued to look at it.
Xia Shutong took a short breath and turned her attention back to the show.
Now it’s time for the horse riding part.
Jiang Feng and Xi Ao rode horses and galloped all the way, causing another burst of CP party to swipe the screen. Then, the camera turned to Yun Feiwu and Xia Shutong.
The program team kindly cut out the subtle interaction between them on the horse, but still kept the part where the two hummed Jiangnan ditties together.
The sun was shining on the endless grassland, and the flowers and plants swayed with the breeze. Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu rode a **** horse together, swaying slowly forward, singing melodiously.
Obviously the voices of the two are completely different, but they are in harmony with each other.
The barrage exploded again.
[Who dares to say that they are not a couple! ! 】
[Mr. Xia’s singing is too gentle! And if you’re not mistaken, Yunyun buried her chin on her shoulder at that time, this posture… Ah, I’m dead, I’m too spoiled, too spoiled]
[Woooooo why the director only gave a back view, I want to see the front, I want to see their eyes ahhh]
[It seems that Mr. Xia raised his head and looked at Yunyun once, I can imagine how gentle the eyes are…]
This time I don’t know what’s going on, there are very few fans who are anxious to get rid of the relationship, and the whole screen has become a carnival for the cp party.
“Cough cough…” Xia Shutong accidentally saw a bullet screen, couldn’t help coughing, and buried his head in Yun Feiwu’s arms.
[What do you all think is Mr. Xia Gong or Yunyun Gong? 】
[Of course Mr. Xia! Although Mrs. Xia is a bit shorter than Yunyun, she has a really strong aura, and she has been taking care of Yunyun… All in all, I firmly stand by Xia Gong! 】
…However, in the eyes of netizens, Xia Zonggong, just because he kissed Yun Feiwu, is now so weak that he has no strength in his body, and he is curled up in Yun Feiwu’s arms.
The author has something to say: Xia Shutong (flag): I will never let cats know about “dogs”!
— Cough cough, so Mr. Xia is destined to be tossed until he can’t get out of bed
