It’s great to meet you, neither too late nor too early

1

The air on the street was slightly cool at 10 o'clock in the evening, and Ren Xiaoyou was walking home alone.

She had just ended her relationship, and there were faint tears in the corners of her eyes.

This was her fourth relationship, which only lasted six months. Maybe it wasn’t long enough, but for Ren Xiaoyou, who had always been willing to invest all her passion, it was enough. It was a fatal injury.

Ren Xiaoyou is an Aries, and the zodiac sign says this: Impulse is the devil! What's more, the Aries girl who is dazzled by love is an impulsive person. Once she meets a boy she likes, she will express her love without reservation. If he agrees, I'm afraid the Aries girl can't wait to be with him every day. together.

But he said he was clingy enough, and Ren Xiaoyou thought he was joking. He felt that he probably didn’t express his meaning clearly, so he changed his words and said that he didn’t love her anymore. Ren Xiaoyou Shocked, he turned and left without looking at Ren Xiaoyou.

Ren Xiaoyou called him countless times, sent him countless text messages, and used all social software, but whether it was at home, at work, or in daily life, Wherever he went, he disappeared without a trace, as if he had disappeared from the world.

Until a week later, Ren Xiaoyou saw him holding a girl's hand and smiling as before.

Today is the 28th day since he left. Since it was confirmed that he would not come back, Ren Xiaoyou locked himself at home and did not dare to go anywhere.

Because she was always afraid of walking alone on the roadside, she remembered that when two people were crossing the road, he would always let Ren Xiaoyou walk on the inside of the road. On the outside, she said that this way she would not be bumped into if a car came over; she was afraid of seeing the stalls selling Teppanyaki on the roadside, because she likes to eat, and every time he would run over and buy a lot, and would also test her during her period. During the period, she reminded her boss not to be too spicy; she was afraid of seeing the children playing in the park. She remembered that one day she acted like a spoiled child to him and what would she name the child? He scratched her nose and said that if it was a boy, It’s called Lucky, and the girl is called Jinbao.

There were too many things that she didn't want to remember, but the torrent of memories was still surging like a dam that had burst, and it continued to flow.

She walked aimlessly, from one road to another, from one street corner to another. Her mind was filled with the past, even the most annoying whole thing. She can’t even remember clearly the ugly face of the supervisor who forced her to work overtime.

When we are approaching the community, we have to pass through a three-way intersection. Although it is very late, there are still cars passing by from time to time. Recently, the traffic lights here seem to be convulsing at ten o'clock every night. After that, the yellow lights flashed at the same time. Ren Xiaoyou's mind was still in a state of flux, and he didn't notice at all that a car was roaring closer and closer not far away.

The driver noticed Ren Xiaoyou and honked the horn desperately, but she acted as if she couldn't hear him at all and kept walking forward. At the critical moment, Someone grabbed her hand and pulled her back, and the car roared past her like a wild horse.

Are you okay?

Well, it’s okay. Ren Xiaoyou murmured.

Where do you live?

Zixin Home.

Oh, just in front, go home quickly, it’s too late and it’s not safe for a girl to be outside.

Yeah. Ren Xiaoyou nodded.

By the time she reacted, the person had already gone away. She even forgot to ask her name or say thank you.

She only remembered that the man had a pair of eyes hidden in his hair, shining brightly in the dark, and his hands, which were very warm.

Ren Xiaoyou decided not to let his mind be filled with images from the past, so he focused on his work.

She was extremely busy every day, and it was not until her mother sent her a text message wishing her a happy birthday that she remembered that today was her birthday.

She planned to have a birthday party for herself. She couldn't be depressed even on her birthday because of someone who had left.

If a mother knew that the baby she had gone through so much pain to give birth to was so sad because of someone she didn’t love, she would probably be heartbroken beyond measure.

She called her besties, friends, classmates, close colleagues and even the neighbors downstairs, but almost everyone was occupied.

A good girl wants to shine brightly, no one can accompany me, I can accompany myself, she thought, and then waited to get off work.

She tidied herself up neatly and delicately, and then went to a French restaurant that she had wanted to go to before but had never been willing to go because the price was so expensive.

The red wine, steak, foie gras and French-baked escargots taste really good, and the desserts are also rich and fragrant. Although the price is staggering, it is always worth it.

She waved the knife and fork elegantly, wiped the corners of her mouth elegantly with a napkin, drank the last sip of Bordeaux red wine, and planned to pay for herself elegantly. ’s birthday draws a happy ending.

But when she put her hand into the bag, she felt that she might not be elegant anymore.

She forgot her wallet at home. What was worse than this was that for fear of being disturbed by others during this elegant meal, she only took a BlackBerry 9900, which meant she could only make phone calls. Sending text messages on the phone, paying with WeChat, and paying with Alipay have nothing to do with her.

She looked around. People around her were either eating in small groups or chatting quietly. No one noticed her predicament. Of course, she didn't find any acquaintances.

She remained calm in the face of danger and continued to call her girlfriends, friends, classmates, close colleagues and even the neighbors downstairs gracefully, but everyone seemed to be discussing it and couldn't rush it. Come over, the fastest will be two hours later.

She looked at the time and saw that it would be closing in less than an hour.

The waiter glanced at her a few times intentionally or unintentionally, and she felt as if she was running on the street without any clothes.

Finally, five minutes before closing time, the waiter took the menu and asked her politely if she wanted anything else. She shook her head. Then he said, "Sorry, miss, if you don't need anything anymore, we have to close."

She finally got a little anxious. She said, I'm sorry, I didn't bring my wallet. I asked my friend to send money over. Can you wait a little longer?

The waiter frowned. It was probably the first time he encountered such a situation, but he quickly restored his signature smile: It doesn’t matter, you can swipe your card, WeChat or Alipay.

She was a little at a loss and said that the card was also in her wallet. Then she picked up the phone, smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and said, "Do you think this phone can be used for settlement?" ?

The waiter was a little stunned and said, otherwise, please wait a moment, I will ask our manager to see if I can wait for you a little longer.

She nodded, her eyes full of gratitude and expectation.

After a while, the waiter came over and said with a cheerful face, Hello, madam, a gentleman just bought the order for you, you can go.

Ren Xiaoyou was surprised, how is it possible, which gentleman is it?

The waiter pointed towards the bar. It was the gentleman in a black trench coat. He said he was your friend.

Ren Xiaoyou looked at it from a distance. The light was too dim to see clearly, but it seemed vaguely familiar. She said, can you please take me over to meet him? .

Willing to help, the waiter stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture.

Ren Xiaoyou walked over and the man looked at her with a smile. Ren Xiaoyou saw that his face was very white and his eyes were hidden behind his hair in a dim environment. Shining brightly.

She said, I'm sorry, who are you?

He said, Miss Confused, can’t you remember who I am?

Ren Xiaoyou looked at the man in front of him with clear and interesting eyes. He seemed to have seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember it: I'm sorry, why don't you give me a hint? I?

The man smiled, do you still remember the three-way intersection in front of Zixin's home?

Ah! Is it you? Ren Xiaoyou remembered and looked at the man in front of him with hair that was so long that it covered his eyes in surprise.

The man smiled, "Well, it's me. I thought you were just confused occasionally, but I didn't expect that this is still an old problem for you."

Ren Xiaoyou smiled sheepishly, I don’t know your name yet. If it weren’t for you, I would have been hit by a car. You must Tell me who you are, and by the way, you paid my bill. Ren Xiaoyou remembers being incoherent and seemed not to know what to say.

Everyone is confused sometimes, I just happened to meet you, it doesn’t matter. The man smiled.

That’s not okay. I’ll be very upset if you don’t tell me. Ren Xiaoyou suddenly regained his composure.

Well, my name is Jin Dong. Can I know your name, Miss Confused?

Well, my name is Ren Xiaoyou.

That’s a nice name. Nice to meet you. The man held out his hand.

Ren Xiaoyou also stretched out his hand. Just like last time, Ren Xiaoyou felt that the man's hand was very warm.

Ren Xiaoyou has not seen Jin Dong for a long time since the last time they left the restaurant. He wanted to invite him to dinner, but Jin Dong said that he was abroad and would meet again when he came back.

The breeze was cool in the summer night, and Ren Xiaoyou was walking home alone.

A colleague’s new boyfriend invited him to dinner, and most of the department went there. Ren Xiaoyou didn’t want to go at first, but he ignored everyone’s invitation and went along with it. A lively one.

Eating is not the theme of an adult party, but drinking is. Ren Xiaoyou doesn’t drink well, but everyone got into the mood and forced her to drink a few more red and white beers. Cup, and then, the next program had no chance for her. She declined the suggestions of several male colleagues to take her home and got into a taxi alone.

But after a while, she only felt chest tightness and breathlessness, and then got out of the car and walked slowly back along the riverside path alone.

However, the direction of home was clearly in the east, but she seemed to be walking to the west. The buildings in front of her were not as familiar as before, but in her drunken eyes, she did not find.

I don’t know when I walked through an alley. The alley was deep, as if Jin Dong’s eyes were hidden in his hair, but there was light in Jin Dong’s eyes. There are no alleys.

Ren Xiaoyou continued to walk without realizing it. Suddenly, after taking a few steps, he was blocked by someone.

Hey, little girl, you must be lonely at this late hour. Let your brother play with you. A shirtless bald man with a big gold chain stood in front of her. Under the dim street light, it was impossible to tell whether the tattoo on his arm was a blue dragon, white tiger or Mickey Mouse.

Ren Xiaoyou woke up a little and said, "No, thank you." Then he turned around and walked back.

Where are you going? Didn’t you hear our big brother extending a warm invitation to you? Ren Xiaoyou just turned around, and two men dressed like the bald ones were standing in front of Ren Xiaoyou. The only difference between them and the bald ones was that they wore colorful short-sleeved shirts.

What are you going to do? Ren Xiaoyou broke out in a cold sweat and completely woke up from the wine.

Don’t do anything. My brother knows that you are empty, lonely and cold. Otherwise, you would be wandering around here wearing shorts in the middle of the night. Since you are in need, my brother will also carry forward his style. , just learn from Lei Feng, come on, little girl.

As he spoke, the bald man pressed closer and closer. Ren Xiaoyou wanted to escape, but his escape route was blocked by the other two men.

Help. Ren Xiaoyou screamed loudly, but the bald head seemed to ignore him. Even if you scream, no one will come to save you if your throat is broken. Who in this world doesn't know me, Du Da Bangchui? The woman I like has never been Unobtainable. But to be honest, I have played with so many decent women, and this is my first time with short hair. Don’t tell me, this short hair looks really cool.

The bald hand had begun to touch Ren Xiaoyou's skin, and she avoided it in pain.

"Hey, what are you doing"? A man's voice sounded, and Ren Xiaoyou was stunned. The three bald brothers were so surprised that their jaws almost fell off. They were probably used to being domineering here, but they didn't expect that there was someone who dared to interfere with their business without fear of death. .

Where did you get out of here? Tell me, mind your own business and get out of here. Li Da Bang Chui's younger brother pointed at the man from a distance.

What if I have to meddle in this business? The man's voice was sonorous and powerful, and Ren Xiaoyou felt that this voice was very familiar.

Are you looking for death? You don’t know who I am, do you? Li Da Bangchui released his grip on Ren Xiaoyou's forehead and pointed at the man.

I know who you are. Aren't you the most famous gangster, Li Dazai? The man smiled contemptuously.

Brothers, don’t say anything, just fuck him. Li Da Bang Chui waved his hand, and the two bald heads rushed out howling.

Ren Xiaoyou's blood almost ran cold. She recognized whose voice it was, but how could he beat the three of them?

However, unexpectedly, the two of them seemed to lie down before they arrived. Li Dabaangchui saw that the two younger brothers didn't know what was going on and fell down. A hungry tiger ran down the mountain and escaped.

The man came over, and sure enough, it was Jin Dong. He looked at Ren Xiaoyou, his eyes shining behind his hair, are you okay?

Yeah. Ren Xiaoyou nodded, then suddenly threw herself into Jin Dong's arms and started crying happily.

Jin Dong touched her head and said nothing, letting her cry, venting the anger and grievance in his heart.

Ren Xiaoyou's tears fell on Jin Dong's white shirt, blooming into white and flawless flowers.

Ren Xiaoyou felt that he might have fallen in love with Jin Dong, but Jin Dong seemed to have no reaction. of.

She vaguely felt that Jin Dong had feelings for her, but why he was indifferent to her advances was a mystery to her. However, through From his eyes hidden behind his hair, Ren Xiaoyou could tell that Jin Dong must have many stories buried in his heart, but he didn't tell them and she didn't ask.

Life was as usual. She went to and from get off work, and occasionally asked Jin Dong to have dinner. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. In addition to using the half marathon to abuse herself, she also signed up for a swimming class and a Ballet class, I don't know who said it, being single is the best time to improve yourself. She wants to make herself better. In this way, Jin Dong will probably open up to her slowly.

It is already the end of summer, but the weather is still very hot.

A friend asked Ren Xiaoyou to go to Jiuhua Mountain to burn incense. She thought about it and followed. Jin Dong went abroad recently and she hadn’t seen him for half a month. It just so happened that he went to relax with his friends.

Jiuhua Mountain is one of the four major Buddhist mountains. Tourists come here in droves and are very popular. She got up at four o'clock in the morning, bathed and changed clothes, incense-scented and climbed the mountain, and finally burned the first incense stick when the first glimmer of light poured into the world.

She asked for a marriage sign, and the sign said: A good match is easy to come by. When Zhang Sheng met Xiao Yingying, it was not a marriage, so how could he get two? People are worthy of marriage.

She read it several times but didn’t understand. Then she asked the old monk at the door for help. Make beauty.

Ren Xiaoyou thought for a while, seemed to understand a little, and then made a look like he suddenly realized it, and happily went down the mountain.

She sent Jin Dong a WeChat message, which probably meant that one morning on a certain day, she and he would set off from the subway station closest to home, and they could get off at will, In transit, if he and she can meet before 5 o'clock in the evening, then God will let the two of them be together.

After waiting for a long time, Jin Dong did not reply, but Ren Xiaoyou believed that he would definitely see it.

On the appointed day, Ren Xiaoyou arrived at the subway station early and walked on without looking back.

The subway was crowded with people. She looked at everyone she passed by. Some had eyebrows like his, some had eyes like his, but no one looked like him. Face.

From morning to noon, and from noon to afternoon, she didn't even bother to eat and didn't dare to go home to take a nap. She was afraid that she would miss it accidentally and lose the time. One second passed, and there was less than half an hour left before 5 o'clock. She even regretted saying so much. If they really hadn't met, she and Jin Dong would never have another chance.

At 4:59, she watched the second hand of the watch go forward without looking back. Her heart was in her throat and she looked around anxiously. Nothing, no trace of Jin Dong at all.

The time finally crossed the 5 o'clock limit. Her face was ashen and her heart sank into an abyss.

She walked out of the subway station dejectedly. Suddenly, she saw Jin Dong standing not far ahead, looking at something with a blank face. She seemed to have come back to life. He rushed over to Jin Dong, and his excited words changed his tone: I knew that God would let me meet you, I knew, I knew, it's great that you are here.

Jin Dong seemed to be caught off guard by her sudden hug. He was startled for a moment, but soon regained his composure, touched her head and said, Well, I'll do it. .

After Ren Xiaoyou got together with Jin Dong, he learned a lot about him, such as his family, His hobbies, his past, and the stories hidden in his hair that he never told anyone.

Ren Xiaoyou suddenly felt sorry for Jin Dong, especially when he heard Jin Dong say: I don't believe in love, but I believe in you.

Ren Xiaoyou felt that no matter what, she had the responsibility to take good care of Jin Dong, because compared with him, her so-called unbearable past events were really nothing to look back on. Worth mentioning.

However, there is one thing that Ren Xiaoyou will probably never know.

Jin Dong never saw the text message she sent because Jin Dong lost his phone before she sent the message.

The reason why he appeared at Ren Xiaoyou’s subway entrance is probably because he also thinks that Ren Xiaoyou is a rare and good girl. In this world, good girls are not There are many, and there are even fewer that can make people's hearts beat.

Therefore, all encounters in this world may not necessarily be reunions after a long separation, but may also be destined.
