Su Cheng and Li Li stayed in City S for almost a week, reorganized the two people's nest, bought some small furniture and daily necessities that were missing, and familiarized themselves with the surrounding environment carefully, and then Return to City K.

For Li Li, home is where Su Cheng is.But Li Li seemed to have to leave Lin Ru and Li Quanzhi's home to meet their parents' expectations, so they chose to go back to K City to make final preparations before school started.

By the way, Su Cheng finally changed her American driver's license to a Chinese one before the university started.

"Chengzi, should I also take the driver's license test?"

"Yes, you can sign up for the exam after the semester starts. But you only need to get the certificate, and you don't need to pass it too much."

"why?"

"Because you have me as a full-time driver! No matter where you go in the future, I will pick you up. The purpose of getting a driver's license is to make you useful when you encounter danger, just like I want you to learn to swim, but You have to know that with me, I will never let you fall into the water."

"Oh, then I will try my best to take the swimming class after school starts. Didn't Zhao Ran say that the swimming class is the most popular, and you have to fight for the speed of your hands and internet." Li Li bit his lip, his heart was full of warmth , couldn't help but drilled into her arms.

"No." Su Cheng's hand holding Li Li suddenly tightened, "Why do you still need to take swimming lessons if I teach you?"

"Ah? Anyway, you have to learn physical education. You can get credits and learn to swim. Why don't you choose me?" Li Li raised his head and looked at Su Cheng innocently.

Su Cheng stared at the innocent face in front of him, hesitated to speak, looked extremely embarrassed, seemed to have debated for three rounds in his head, and finally convinced himself, then frowned slightly and said: "You can also take swimming lessons , I must buy your swimsuit."

puff……

Come on, Li Li understood Su Cheng's little Jiujiu, so he could only secretly pray that she wouldn't buy himself a pair of long clothes and trousers to go to swimming lessons.

"Li Li, we're leaving soon, come visit my mother with me tomorrow." The two stayed in Su Cheng's room for a while, Su Cheng gently rubbed Li Li's hair, and rested his chin on Li Li's head On, said softly.

"Hmm!" Although he couldn't see Su Cheng's expression, but hearing her voice, Li Li knew that Su Cheng missed his mother.

In the past two years with Su Cheng, Li Li discovered that Su Cheng has a fatal flaw, which is "mother".

Although Su Cheng looks sunny and cheerful on the surface, unlike the "motherless child" who is suspicious, sensitive, and self-pitying, the love and protection she hides in her heart for her mother cannot be violated by anyone.

Su Cheng was not a well-behaved student, he had learned all the authentic swear words from Lu Wei and the others when he returned to China, and it was common for him to swear by himself.But those who are familiar with her know that in front of Brother Cheng, some swear words cannot be mentioned, otherwise they may risk their lives.

A year ago, Su Cheng's team had a friendship with the school next door, and there was some conflict during the process. A grumpy player from the other side was furious, and pointed at Su Cheng and cursed "I'm your mother". Going crazy, throwing the ball and beating the other side, everyone is fighting desperately, it is difficult to stop her punching fist, so fierce that she wants to eat the other party!Later, the team member from the school next door was sent to the hospital, and Su Cheng was also decried by the school, but even though she accepted all the financial, honorary, and physical punishments, she still kept silent and refused to apologize to the other party.

There is no right or wrong to say about what Brother Cheng values, she just wants to protect it in the strongest way, even if it is stubborn or unreasonable.

For a few days every year, Su Cheng misses his mother very much, and is very depressed. He often sits by the window in a daze, such as Su Cheng’s own birthday, mother’s birthday, mother’s death day, and family reunion festivals such as August [-]th. .

At the age when she was still doted on by her mother, Su Cheng lost her mother without warning in just two or three months. In the following period of time, although she appeared to be no different from ordinary people on the surface, she had a great deal of hope for the future. No vision, no expectation, no plan, everything is numb.

She didn't care about the pain of losing her beloved in an instant, the pressure of growing up overnight, and the panic of being at a loss. She just knew how to hide it, but no matter how well she hid it, there were times when she couldn't suppress it.

At this time, Li Li would be very worried about Su Cheng, but he didn't know how to comfort her. He could only silently watch her lower her head and sadly blame herself, recalling the past.

Until one day, Li Li suddenly proposed: "Chengzi, let's go to the cemetery to visit mom together?"

Su Cheng's heart skipped a beat.In fact, since she put her mother in the cemetery, she hasn't been there again.Why doesn't she want to see her mother?But whenever she thought of her mother's ashes lying there, she was very afraid that if she went there, she would lose control of her missing her mother even more.

Like sometimes, you are obsessed with a game, and in order to get yourself out of that addiction, you can only force yourself to uninstall it, ignore it, and never watch it.

However, Su Cheng tried for a long time and was cruel for a long time, but he still couldn't get rid of his mother's nostalgia.

"Let's go together and talk to mom, shall we?" Seeing Su Cheng's forbearing eyes, Li Li guessed that she was fighting in her heart, so he cheered up from the side.

Seeing Li Li's gentle but firm smile, Su Cheng suddenly had more confidence in himself.

If escaping doesn't get you out of your thoughts, let's try to face them, shall we?

"Okay." She gently touched Li Li's head and said.

In front of his mother's grave, Su Cheng talked to her a lot, and introduced to her all kinds of trivial things that happened recently, such as his own physics test is very good, such as Aunt Chen actually planted small peppers in the yard recently... …

Sure enough, every time I talked to my mother in the cemetery, my mood would become better. The low feeling of missing my mother in the past has now become a strong force, as if my mother is really by my side.

So, on those special days, they would go to the cemetery to visit their mother, and sometimes even if it wasn't a festival, but just missed, Su Cheng would take Li Li to visit with her.

He was leaving K city in two days, Su Cheng felt that he had to say goodbye to his mother.

They bought Mother Su's favorite little daisy, and brought some of her favorite snacks, and drove to the cemetery in the suburbs.

"Hey, little Su Xiaoli is here again!"

It was Grandpa Lu who was guarding the cemetery who greeted them warmly.Although Grandpa Lu's hair has turned gray, his eyesight and memory are quite good.Needless to say, there are often very few young people who come to the cemetery to offer sacrifices, even fewer like Su Cheng and Li Li, who come every other month or two, so he quickly remembered these two children .

Grandpa Lu's wife died of illness 20 years ago, and her ashes are buried here.He couldn't bear it, he ran to this hill every day, and just happened to meet this cemetery recruiting a "spirit guard". He thought that since the children have their own lives, he might as well stay here with his wife.Unexpectedly, this company has been together for almost 20 years.

Probably because he is doing the most "mourning" job, seeing through life is nothing more than those things, so Grandpa Lu always has a calm and free and easy that ordinary people can hardly find.Su Cheng and Li Li would chat with Grandpa Lu every time they came, and would bring him some delicious food. Grandpa Lu also liked these two sensible children very much.

"Grandpa Lu!" Li Li greeted with a smile.

"Grandpa Lu, we still want to come out to find you in a while, and this just happened to happen. We brought you Liangji's salted duck, and of course your favorite wine!"

"Oh, you two children, how many times have you told me not to buy things for me? Grandpa is not short of money. It's just that you have money and nowhere to spend it. When you grow up, you should eat more and eat well. ,do you know?"

"Grandpa Lu, hurry up and take it. We will leave City K to go to university tomorrow, and it may take a long time before we can come here again."

"Oh, it's good to go to college. The two children have gone to college and are promising! Don't worry, I will take care of your mother's tomb for you, study hard, don't worry about it here!"

"Well, thank you, Grandpa Lu."

"Okay, let's go up and see mom."

Su Cheng and Li Li looked at each other, smiled and held hands and walked towards their mother's grave.Li Li thought, this world is really wonderful, sometimes some strangers will give you a lot of warmth, why the real closest family members always do harm.

Li Li gently caressed the photo of Su Cheng's mother, and wiped off the dust for her.Although she couldn't really see her in this time and space, she has cultivated a Su Cheng who is so warm and loving. She must be a very loving and excellent woman.

Therefore, Li Li likes Su Cheng's mother very much.

"Mom, Li Li and I are going to college tomorrow, and we may not be free to visit you until the summer vacation. We bought a small house with the money you left me, and it will be my home and Li Li's home from now on." , is also the home you gave us. You once said, I will have a home in the future, and I must invite you to be a guest, you must come, Li Li and I are looking forward to your coming."

Su Cheng spoke softly and slowly, the corners of his eyes were a little red.

She suddenly remembered the first time she came out to her mother, when she was 13 years old.

……

Su Cheng, who was very boyish since she was a child, occasionally received confessions from girls. Although she never met someone she liked, it also made her gradually see that she was thinking about the other half when the love affair was just beginning. Sometimes, it is always the default that the other party is a girl, not a boy.

"Mom, I found that I don't seem to like boys, but girls." One day, Su Cheng expressed his confusion to his mother with a feeling of anxiety.

"Cheng Zi, are you in love?" Mom immediately stopped what she was doing and responded very seriously.

"No, it's just that I think that I will want to find a girlfriend instead of a boyfriend in the future."

"You haven't met someone who makes your heart beat, how can you be sure?"

"Mom, I don't know why. Whenever I think of my future partner, I always default to a girl. You told me before that I would get married and have my own children. At that time, my mind stood The person next to me, holding the baby with me, is also a girl. You see, Mike and I are good friends and brothers, but I have no feelings for them, I seem to be only interested in girls..."

"Orange," mother paused for a long time, as if thinking, as if she was doing psychological construction, Su Cheng lowered her head as if waiting for her trial, a few minutes later, she heard her mother's still gentle voice, "Actually, I have been We all know that our Chengzi is different from ordinary girls, I even bought you a bunch of skirts for you to wear, and let you grow long hair, do you remember?"

"Haha, I remember." Su Cheng smiled.

"One day I forced you to wear that pink princess dress to school, and you were unhappy all day, and the teacher told me that there was supposed to be a jigsaw puzzle that you were best at that day, but you kept your head down and didn't participate , and don’t talk to other kids.”

"I remember that day, I hid in the school toilet and cried for a long time."

"I've known since then that my daughter will be happy only by being herself." Mother Su patted Su Cheng's head.

"Mom..." Su Cheng was suddenly moved.

"So, Cheng Zi, as long as you are you, as long as you are happy, no matter you like boys or girls, mom will love you the same."

"Mom..." Su Cheng never thought that his mother would accept and tolerate him like this.

"You are still young, don't set limits for yourself. If you meet a boy who makes your heart beat, you should dare to try; if you meet a girl you like, mom is also looking forward to you bringing her back for me to see." I'm actually curious too, what an excellent girl it must be to be able to fall into the eyes of Chengzi!"

Without accusation, rejection, or correction, her mother gave Su Cheng the courage to love.

……

Su Cheng also lightly stroked his mother's face in the photo, then pointed to his own face and said to Li Li: "Baby, I heard that Mom wants you to kiss me, hurry up."

"What! Auntie wouldn't say that."

"Hurry up, you have to let mom know that you love me too."

Alas, after moving his mother out, Li Li could only helplessly and shyly kiss Su Cheng on the face, and then said to the tombstone: "Auntie, I know that Su Cheng has always taken care of me, and I will also take care of her in the future." Do my best to learn to take care of her, care about her, I will make her happy, don't worry, if you miss us, just come and see us, and we will come back to see you too."

Sometimes Li Li also finds it strange that everyone seems to be afraid of ghosts, but if that "ghost" is your dearest and dearest person, what is there to be afraid of?

She turned to look at Su Cheng, thinking how lucky she would be if she passed away earlier than Su Cheng and could become a ray of soul by her side!

"Chengzi, you must die after me in the future, okay?" Li Li looked at Su Cheng seriously.

"Fool, what are you talking about?!" Su Cheng didn't think carefully why Li Li said that, just hearing the word "death" made her heart ache.

"I'm really afraid of the days without you." Li Li wrapped his arms around Su Cheng's waist nervously, leaning his head on her shoulder lightly. She just thought of the possibility of not having Su Cheng in her life. , I feel that I can't breathe in pain.This person who loves me and brings me a new life, if there is no her, what is the point of maintaining the life of that walking dead?

If she could choose, she would selfishly let Su Cheng exist in every day of her life.

"Okay, I promise you, I will never leave you alone." Su Cheng hugged Li Li tightly.

After her mother passed away, she understood better that the bone-wracking grief brought by missing is sometimes far more painful than death.If the lives of two people are destined to have a sequence, for Li Li, she is willing to be the one who bears the grief.

"Li Bao," Su Cheng buried his red eye sockets in Li Li's neck, and leaned hard to restore his vision, "I don't know what obstacles we will encounter in the future, and I'm not afraid of any difficulties. I just look forward to everything in the future, including life and death, you believe me, we will face it together, okay?"

"Ok!"

In front of her mother's grave, Su Cheng kissed Li Li lightly, and she swore to her mother that she would take good care of this girl in the future.

To pursue bravely, to love frankly, this is probably the ability to love Su Cheng's mother gave her.Just like wanting to protect his mother's place in his heart, Su Cheng has the same passion for love. He is brave but also arrogant, dedicated and stubborn. He goes forward bravely and never turns.

……

On the day of applying for F University, Uncle Chen brought Su Cheng to Li Li's house to pick her up.

Li Li brought a suitcase, which was full of things that Lin Ru and Li Quanzhi gave her. She didn't bring any of her own things, because Su Cheng was usually in charge of clothes and shoes, and both of them were in charge of daily necessities. City S is ready.

In fact, Li Li didn't really want what Lin Ru and the others had prepared, but he felt that if they really refused all of them, it would hurt them too much to be parents, so he still accepted it.

After all, in this family, she is still polite.

"Mom, I'm leaving, you take care of yourself."

"Hey, take care of yourself too, and call back often." Lin Ru had tears in her eyes, very reluctant, and her heart was full of indebtedness to her daughter.

"Ah."

"Don't worry, Auntie, I will take good care of Li Li." Su Cheng answered from the side and comforted Lin Ru.

"Thanks to you, Cheng Zi, you all take care of each other."

"Don't worry, Auntie, we will report your safety when you settle down at school."

"Well, bye, Mom."

Li Li waved her hand and was about to get in the car. Realizing that Li Quanzhi was actually standing beside her, she still couldn't help turning her head and said softly, "Trouble, take care of mom."

In the past ten years, Li Li has hardly called him "Dad" again, and she doesn't plan to call him, after all, what this man has done, he really can't be called a father.But she had to admit that he is now her mother's husband, the one who will get along with her day and night in the future.

No matter how many problems there are between the husband and wife, Li Li sometimes feels that this hateful couple is also very pitiful. Who has never pursued love passionately in life?Anyway, I hope they are better.

Su Cheng held Li Li's hand tightly, looked into her eyes, and gave her a reassuring and reassuring smile.

Goodbye, City K;

Goodbye to the past.
