waiting for the flowers to bloom

Fast forward two months.

It was the beginning of September when Song Fanfan and Tong Puhao carried their bags and continued on their way.

Tong Wei and Weng Ling put their two sons on the plane, one to the UK and the other to Australia.

They're all grown up and going their own way.

Also at the beginning of September, the Sui family held a full moon wine for Sui Xiang's son, who was the eldest grandson of the Sui family, and Sui Dong, as the child's second uncle, naturally couldn't be absent.

He sat at a table with a group of buddies, there were no outsiders, there were not many dishes on the table, but there were a variety of wines.These few people were drinking or just drinking when they got together, Sui Guofeng saw it, he couldn't say anything in front of so many guests, so he had to treat them as air.

When Sui Xiang walked around the seats with his son in his arms, he drank a lot himself, and sat next to Sui Dong by the way.

Among them, Sui Xiang was the first to get married and have children.The birth of this baby made many of them, including Sui Dong of course, realize that they are no longer children, but also the age to take responsibility.

Meng Jianxian came over, stretched out his hand to pick up the child from Sui Xiang's hand: "Come on, let uncle have a look." Then he lifted the child up.

Probably what all babies like most is when someone lifts themselves up high, and their calves are dangling, making them happy.The fleshy short legs kicked excitedly, accidentally, the little feet stepped on Meng Jianxian's face, and Meng Jianxian instantly felt the smell of urine in his nostrils.

"Bah, bah, you just peed on your feet!" Meng Jianxian stretched out his arms, and hugged the child away in disgust.

"Haha", Sui Dong stretched out his hand with a smile, hugged the child, and sniffed it, "Who's feet are so stinky!"

The baby looked at him and kept smiling.

"Whose feet? Huh?" Sui Dong said as he shook the baby's small body, and now the baby laughed even more happily. Although he couldn't understand what the adults were saying, the baby could feel that it was a sign of loving him. .

Sui Xiang was a little surprised that Sui Dong would be so close to the child.For Sui Dong, he was actually a little sorry.

Back then, in order to stop Sui Dong, he told Sui Guofeng about Sui Dong, and as a result, Sui Dong always held grudges against him and his family.

But in the past two years, since Sui Dong came back from the army, he could feel that Sui Dong was changing bit by bit, maybe Sui Dong himself didn't realize it.

At first he didn't even enter the house, but later he agreed to Sui Guofeng's arrangement and went to work in the branch office, and later he stopped being so antagonistic to Sui Guofeng and himself.Compared with when he went to the army back then, he was a completely different person.

Although Sui Dong annoyed his grandfather and his parents because of Zhao Chengfang's incident a few months ago, he went back to work not long after.In the past few months, he would go back basically every week, and sometimes he would say hello to himself when they met at his parents' place.

But thinking about it, time not only makes people age, but more importantly, it makes people grow, settle, and mature.

Sui Dong drank a lot of wine, and he couldn't tell whether he was in a good mood or not, he just felt empty, a persistent emptiness.Alcohol can temporarily numb it, and maybe make him happier.

But... so dizzy.

"Why did you drink so much?" Zhao Chengyuan frowned and asked him, but Sui Dong's mind was already muddled.

"Sui Dong doesn't know what he's smoking today. He's drinking all kinds of wine. He probably won't be able to do it. We'll go play later. Would you like to go?" Ma Qian said, lighting a cigarette.

"Where are you going? Can he go like this?"

Meng Jianxian snatched the cigarette from Ma Qian's hand and extinguished it. "Here's the child! Find a substitute driver and take him back. If it's not possible, tell aunt about it. It's okay to ask uncle to pick him up when he goes back."

"I'm going back to my side, you don't need to worry about me." Sui Dong was a little confused.

"Oh, that's just right. I'm going to the west of the city later, so I might as well send him back."

"That's fine, please!"

It's a rare opportunity to be alone with Sui Dong...

"Brother Sui, where are your car keys?"

"Here." Sui Dong took it out of his pocket and threw it over, "Do you know where my home is?"

"I only know which neighborhood it is. You can rest in the car for a while, and I will call you when I arrive later."

"Ah."

In fact, Zhao Chengyuan knew Sui Dong's address. Although she had never been there, she checked it out.

Sui Dong fell into a drowsy sleep. He only felt that someone helped him into the room, and then undressed himself. He thought he was dreaming, but when he felt someone kissing him, he woke up suddenly.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhao Chengyuan's magnified face, and the smell of oily chemicals remained on his lips. He subconsciously reached out and touched it: lipstick.

"You... how many times do you want me to tell you? I'm not interested in you!" She was speechless.Sui Dong is still not so clear-headed at the moment, so he is too lazy to talk to her.

"I..." Zhao Chengyuan didn't expect Sui Dong to wake up, and he didn't know how to explain it.

"But I like you!"

"But I don't like you! Haven't I said enough?"

"Why am I not good enough for you? You want that Song Fanfan but don't want me?"

"What does this have to do with Song Fanfan?"

"Don't you like him? For him, you can even give up my brother's affairs. Don't think I don't know. You can obviously catch his brother and avenge my brother, but because of Song Fanfan, you let him surrender. What's so good about that man, you treat him like this!"

"Have you ever gone to him?" Sui Dong didn't question, but confirmed.

"Yes, otherwise, how do you think I would know the truth back then, or their family is still at large!"

Sui Dong looked at Zhao Chengyuan who was losing his composure, and his mind was in chaos. All kinds of pictures from the past flashed one by one, and they all piled up in his mind, which was extremely chaotic.

"You go quickly."

"Sui Dong, you..."

"I really don't understand what you're thinking!" She angrily picked up her bag, closed the door with a bang and left.

Sui Dong lay on the bed with some headaches, his mind was in chaos, and the weird feeling that he forcibly suppressed came again...

Song Fanfan's mind was full, and his dream was also in a state of chaos, he couldn't make sense of it, like a torrent was blocked, and he couldn't find an outlet to vent.

When he opened his eyes, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, Sui Dong walked into the bathroom with a heavy head, and woke himself up with a splash of cold water.The confused mind gradually returned to its place. This Zhao Chengyuan is really...

Too stubborn, since I was in high school, I have said that I like myself, and I don't know how many times I have declined, but in the end I have made such a move.

Sui Dong sat on the sofa and saw that the photo album under the coffee table was already covered with a thick layer of dust, and he didn't know how long he hadn't opened it.

He remembered that on May [-]st last year, when Song Fanfan sent him back drunk, he lost his temper because Song Fanfan read this photo album, and even drove Song Fanfan away.

At that time...how was Song Fanfan feeling?

Sui Dong felt extremely irritable when he thought of these things, he picked up the car keys and decided to go out to have a blast.

The area west of the city is still under development, and there are not so many cars at night.Sui Dong drove around randomly, somehow, he arrived at the west gate of Hailan University, not far away is the student dormitory building, the same lights, but the time is no longer, four years have passed, in fact, everything has changed.

Few cars drove by on the pitch-black road, and there was only one dim street light after a long distance. Sui Dong opened the car window, flipped through his phone in boredom, and turned on the player. There was only the lonely song "Blue and White Porcelain".

This song was sung by Zhao Chengfang in KTV many years ago when he celebrated his birthday. It was not the first time he listened to it, but he thought it was the best one. Since then, he has only downloaded this song on his player. I don't know how many times I've listened to this song.

And now, he didn't want to hear it at all.Click on search, and the displayed search history has an English song. Sui Dong rarely listens to songs, and the search function has never been used. When did you search for this?

He clicked it curiously, and the light accompaniment floated out leisurely

If you got dreams in your heart

Why don't you share them with me

And if dreams don't come true

I'll make sure that you're nightmares

Are through

……

Thinking about it, it was the time he and Song Fanfan went to the beach to watch the sunrise, and Song Fanfan found it out for himself to listen to. He still remembered that he said he didn't like this song.

The summer night wind blows into the car window, and floats out of the window with music that makes the heart feel peaceful and calm.

The light wind interweaves the music, dances lightly, floats, surrounds the car, and surrounds itself.

Sui Dong somewhat misses the time when Song Fanfan was still in college. Four years ago in the cafeteria, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Song Fanfan who was staring blankly at him. Maybe just that one glance, he remembered him.

But now, what Song Fanfan left for himself is this forgotten song.

I can no longer escape, go to him, whether to apologize or repent, go to him...

Sui Dong was thinking with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the warm yellow streetlights outside the window in a daze.
