countdown to winter

Chapter 47

The small shop was closed, and the warm yellow lights were on inside, and the wind blew off the leaves, which were all over the place.

When we arrived at the community, Wen Xia said, "There's no elevator here, so we can only walk for a while."

"You moved, you weren't here before."

Wen Xia smiled and said: "Although they are all in the same city, after changing schools, they are still a little far away from where I live, and the school allocated housing, so they just stay here."

Shi Xing walked a few steps faster and walked side by side with him.

A few years ago, Shi Xing was much different from him in height, but now he is about the same height as him. Wen Xia also found out, he smiled and compared, and said, "You have grown taller."

On the fourth floor, Wen Xia took out the key. This action was no different from before, and even gave Shi Xing the illusion that he had stayed with Wen Xia for five years and never left.

"sorry."

Wen Xia paused her hands and opened the door, "There is nothing to be sorry about."

"When you left, I drank too much and couldn't see you off." Wen Xia brought him slippers, "But I couldn't reach you, so I was really worried about you—you said you were so Stubborn and not tactful, it is inevitable that you will not get along well with others, far away water cannot save near fire, since I can't get in touch with you, I can only relax."

Shi Xing's eyes were red again.

"Looking at it now, you seem to be fine, so I can rest assured."

Wen Xia put down the dishes and walked to the living room.

Shi Xing put on slippers, closed the door, and said, "You're blaming me."

"What's so strange, you look like a little girl," Wen Xia turned on the TV, "It's just the year you left, I was quite angry, I thought you were such a white-eyed wolf, I didn't remember anything, Just leave as soon as you say, there is no news-"

"I deleted your contact information, not because I don't want to see you, but because," Shi Xing walked over, stood in front of him, and looked into his eyes, "I want to forget you by myself."

"..."

Wen Xia was speechless.

"I know I can't forget it, but... I still want to try to forget - liking you back then brought you too much burden, while you bothered to stay away from me, you approached me out of responsibility. Think, did I embarrass you, I am too tired."

Wen Xia: "..."

"Now you are not my teacher, and I am not your student," Shi Xing lowered his head, and hooked his hand with his index finger, not light or heavy, as if scratching the tip of his heart. Wen Xia understood what he was going to say, and was a little flustered. He waved his hand and said, "I'm going to cook."

Shi Xing didn't say any more, just accepted it when he saw it was good, and nodded.

Wen Xia went to the kitchen, Shi Xing took the yogurt, sat on the sofa, and started to drink.

After drinking the first spoonful, he suddenly remembered the little girl he had forgotten and Ning Cheng, and hurriedly called Ning Cheng, who said: "Which country did you go to buy yogurt? It's going to rain , I'll pick you up from the supermarket."

"I can't leave for a while," Shi Xing glanced at the back of the kitchen, and whispered, "I may not go back tonight, oh, yes, you give that little girl to—"

He took down his mobile phone and asked Wen Xia from a distance: "What kind of community is this? I asked my colleague to send that little girl back."

"Building A, Jingsheng Garden."

Ning Cheng responded and hung up.

Shi Xing sat alone in the living room, looking at him.

It's still as simple as ever, Wen Xia doesn't like that kind of complicated design, there are few decorations, full of pragmatism, almost the same as before.

Why did I let him go just five years ago?Shi Xing thought in a daze, making himself sad for so many years?
