Zhong Yibai nodded in agreement, "Grandma Guo is also delicious in cooking."

Bai Yian heard Su Mian's rejection, but she was not angry. Her delicate face still had a smile, "Okay, I will learn how to cook with Aunt Guo in the future. I will come here often in the future, so I won't disturb you, right?"

Su Mian pulled the corners of her lips and replied softly, "I'm fine."

She doesn't matter, but as for the others, she can't say anything about it.

Seeing that she said it was okay, Bai Yian seemed very happy.

"I misunderstood you before," Bai Yian looked at Su Mian with a sincere face. "I realized through contact with you that you are such a good person. No wonder my Yibai and my second brother like you."

Facing Bai Yian's sincere praise, Su Mian felt a little frightened.

I remembered the sarcasm and humiliation she was about when she first met Bai Yian

How many faces can a person have?

Su Mian felt that she could no longer tell which one was Bai Yian's true face.

But it is not ruled out that the other party truly regrets it.

After dinner, Bai Yian didn't mean to leave.

Su Mian was packing her things in the kitchen, and in the living room, Bai Yian sat next to Zhong Yibai.

Although she was very resistant to her closeness, when she remembered what Su Su said, Zhong Yibai still sat there honestly, letting Bai Yian beside him.

There was a cartoon playing on TV, and Bai Yian took a look and was not interested.

Retracting her gaze, she glanced at Zhong Yibai beside her and finally spoke, "Yibai, does your father come back so late every day?"

Zhong Yibai stared at the TV screen with his eyes, "No, he has a social engagement tonight."

"oh."

Bai Yian paused for a while and then asked, "When does he usually get home?"

"After six o'clock," Zhong Yibai finished speaking, turning his head to look at her, his chubby little face was a little puzzled, "What are you asking about this?"

Bai Yian shook her head and said with a smile, "It's nothing, just ask."

Zhong Yibai believed her words, turned his head over and continued watching TV.

I knew that Zhong Nanqin had a social engagement tonight and would not come back early.

Bai Yian couldn't stay anymore, and Su Mian just packed up the kitchen and walked out.

She immediately got up from the sofa, looked at Su Mian and said with a smile, "Teacher Su, it's getting late, it's time for me to leave."

Su Mian did not try to keep him, so he sent Bai Yian to the door and said politely, "Let's slow down on the road, come here again if you have time."

"Sure," Bai Yian looked back at her, "I'm very happy tonight, thank you, Teacher Su."

Su Mian, "You're welcome."

"You go back, I'm leaving."

"Go slowly."

After Bai Yian left, Su Mian closed the door.

She lifted her foot into the living room and went into the kitchen to make herself a cup of lemon chrysanthemum tea.

Eating too much during the Chinese New Year is too greasy, and some food accumulation causes heat.

She sat next to Zhong Yibai with a water cup and watched cartoons with him.

After looking for a while, Zhong Yibai reached out and grabbed an apple, and turned his head to ask Su Mian while chewing it, "Su Su, has Aunt Ruhua called you?"

Su Mian was stunned, and then he realized that from the morning to now, he had not received a call from Shen Ruhua to report safety.

"I guess I forgot," Su Mian said as she got up and walked to the phone next to her, picked up the phone and dialed Shen Ruhua's cell phone number.

It took a long time to re-join the other side. Shen Ruhua's depressed voice came through the microphone, with a hint of hoarseness, "Hey."

Su Mian's heart tightened and he hurriedly asked her, "What's wrong?"

The other end didn't say anything for a long time, Su Mian was anxious, "Ruhua, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

There was a sob sound from the microphone, starting with a low sob, followed by a ‘sigh-sigh’ cry.

Depression, pain.

Su Mian was anxious and distressed, and her voice was light and soft, "Ruhua, what happened?"

Chen Ruhua still didn't speak, just cried.

Listening to her crying, Su Mian felt so distressed, but she didn't speak anymore. She held the microphone tightly and listened quietly to the movements on the other end.

Ten minutes later, Chen Ruhua finally stopped crying.

Su Mian heard the sound of wiping his nose with tissues over there.

After a while, a faint sigh came from the microphone.

"well"

Su Mian said softly, "Where are you now?"

Chen Ruhua sniffed, "Home."

“When did you arrive?”

“After twelve o’clock noon.”

Su Mian paused, then asked her softly, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ruhua was silent on the other end for a few seconds, and finally spoke, "I met Bai Yan on the plane today."

Su Mian was stunned and then remembered what happened to Bai Yan at the airport in the morning.

So she said, "I met him today, at the airport."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Su Mian continued, "We had a few more talks at that time. He said he was going on a business trip in another place, but he didn't expect to go to Jiangcheng."

Chen Ruhua suddenly asked her, "What have you talked about?"

"After a few casual conversations, he asked me if I was in Beicheng. I said yes, and then he said he was going to go on a business trip in another place, and contacted me when I came back, and then they separated."

After Su Mian finished speaking, she asked Chen Ruhua, "How did you two meet?"

Chen Ruhua sighed again, "He will sit beside me."

Su Mian exclaimed, "What a coincidence?"

"hehe"

It's not a sneer, it's a bitter smile.

Su Mian was a little excited.

Every time I read a romance novel, especially when I see the male and female protagonists meet on a certain occasion after n years of separation, she will be very excited.

I was so excited that I could not pounce on the heroine and hug the hero to express my lovesickness.

Now, this kind of scene that originally only appeared in novels has been staged in her life.

What made her even more excited was that the heroine was her best friend.

A heart was driven by gossip curiosity, and she wanted to know the mood and the next story after the two met again, especially when they looked up and saw each other.

So she immediately asked, "And what? What happened?"

Chen Ruhua on the other end of the phone smiled bitterly, "What else can happen? From beginning to end, he never looked at me. I now doubt whether he no longer knows me?"

"How could it be?" Su Mian couldn't believe it, "You two have been together for so many years."

"Mianmian," Chen Ruhua gently interrupted her words on the other end, her voice weak and exhausted, "I don't plan to go back to the North City."

"Is it decided so soon?"

"Well," Chen Ruhua said softly, "It's okay for me to take Yi Yi alone, but I'm just a little tired, I can bear it."

"What do your parents mean?"

"I haven't told them yet, they certainly won't agree."

Su Mian sighed softly, "Why do you have to make yourself live so hard?"

Chen Ruhua's eyes turned red. She raised her eyes and looked at the dark night outside the window. The man's cold face appeared in her mind.

After four years of separation, they disappeared without a trace in each other's world.

Four years later today, just a few hours ago, he was sitting next to her, and the distance between the two was almost zero except for the handrail.

But he never gave her a glance at the corner of his eyes, and regarded her as nothing.

Until Chen Yi woke up from sleep, the little girl's nipples and silly voice attracted his attention. His gaze turned slightly, but it only fell on Shen Yiyi.

But she herself was still ignored.

When I thought of this, my Shenhua's chest felt ache.
