Chapter 8
I don't know how long has passed.

When Chen woke up again, the sunlight outside the window gently shone into the boy's eyes.

Wei Wei suddenly feels like a dream.

Soft mattresses, fresh air, bright sunshine.

In an instant, the boy's mood was brought to the hometown that was once very familiar to him.

"Is this a dream?"

murmured slightly.

For him, this dream seemed a little too long.

Alone and reduced to a completely strange world, it was like when he came to a big city for his first graduation internship, surrounded by boundless loneliness and fear.

But that was still the world he knew well after all.

And now, that heartstring was finally broken.

He smelled the aroma of food.

How long has it been since he had a good night's sleep and a good meal?

Every day is spent in fear, desperately absorbing all knowledge and nutrients, even before the college entrance examination, he has never worked so hard, just to survive in this world and to be familiar with the surrounding environment.

Fortunately, this dream finally came to an end.

After a good night's sleep, the tiredness was completely cleared away.

The gloomy sky disappeared and turned into azure blue and cloudless, and the endless rain also disappeared for the first time, turning into clear sunshine.

cast in the boy's eyes.

He will start to live that simple and busy life again, but with happy two-point and one-line life.

That is his destination, and it is also his simplest luxury.

Ordinary, spend a lifetime.

let out a long breath.

Dejectedly scratching at his hair, it was as messy as a chicken coop, then he sat up slowly, stretched out his hand and hooked it a few times but failed to catch the clothes he had changed.

Huh?
His slightly widened eyes were a little dazed, and he found that his little pink child was also missing.

But half-awake people are always in a daze.

Still sleepy eyes glanced at the busy figure in the kitchen, raised his nose and greedily sniffed the tempting aroma of food.

Then asked subconsciously.

"Hi, Yu Jingjing."

"What time is it, haven't you gone to work yet?"

Yu Jing is his girlfriend, but he is used to calling her Yu Jingjing, maybe it is more fluent with an extra word.

Sometimes when there is a quarrel, the three words are more powerful.

such as.

"Yu Jingjing, you bastard...!"

The girl looked back at him.

Yu Jing usually leaves earlier than him because of work.

But he is a person who likes to sleep late, and he can chew on the quilt until after eight o'clock.

So she always makes a breakfast and puts it on the table before he wakes up.

Two people rarely meet each other in the morning.

Fortunately, we can have a short reunion after get off work.

Tightly hold Yu Jing's little hand to block her, afraid that the crowded subway in the evening rush hour will separate the two of them.

After all, this separation is more than an hour.

The subway is very long and the rented house is far away.

The sound of the new subway without the crunching wheels is always less emotional.

Although the traditional things are backward, sometimes they have a special charm.

Finally, we reached the end.

He took Yu Jing's hand and prepared to squeeze off the subway.

The rays of the setting sun were a little dazzling, passing through the crowded crowd and shining into his eyes through the clean car windows.

He found that he was not holding Yu Jing in his hand.

Suddenly panicked.

And Yu Jing was slowly walking over from not far away, with a strong sense of strangeness, which made him feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

"Yu Jing, you..."

The girl came closer.

He tilted his head suspiciously.

Chen froze on the spot, seeing the figure surrounded by light and shadow gradually approaching him, and even raised his little hand to wave at him.

"Hey"

A looming voice.

The unique body fragrance of the girl got into his nostrils.

The boy's hallucinations came to an abrupt end, the dark pupils were out of focus, and the man finally came close.

Guangying finally outlined a peaceful smile, pursing her lips slightly, today she put on lipstick.

It was left behind by the mistress of this family, the girl was gentle and also a little more charming.

In the future, there must be a woman who is enough to amaze the ninja world.

She attracted the boy's attention.

The girl seemed to be aware of it and her face turned slightly hot.

wake up.

Then he saw this black-haired boy who had always been the backbone of the small team, with despair in his eyes.

The eye circles were a little red, and a tear flowed down.

"He cried."

Xiaonan was slightly dazed.

She didn't understand what happened, but the image Chen left for her has always been that calm and wise boy, his rationality is far beyond that of children of this age, and every word, deed, and even a peaceful smile can give her enough courage.

However, it was such a young man who brought her an infinite sense of security, but suddenly his mentality collapsed and he cried bitterly.

He is used to pretending to be strong.

However, when crying bitterly, he was sadder than anyone else.

Yahiko and the red-haired boy came back from the door at this time, they had just gone outside to collect information, and they came back looking for something to eat.

The battle was finally over, at the end of the night, when it was daylight.

They didn't know who would win and who would lose, they just left the corpses all over the place.

The ninjas gradually shifted the battlefield.

However, the two people who just opened the door were somewhat enlightened at the same time.

They saw Chen who was crying bitterly, and Xiao Nan who wanted to comfort him but didn't know how to say it.

Because she had no idea what was going on.

There's something weird about this scene.
The two involuntarily took a step back, took another look at Xiao Nan who was at a loss, thought for a while that this might not be possible, and then hurriedly put down the things in their hands and walked over.

"He needs...to be alone."

Yahiko was silent for a long time but still opened his mouth.

The orange-haired boy rarely showed a gentle and mature side, maybe it was empathy, maybe they could understand the reason for Chen's pain.

All three were silent.

Although it has been so long, sometimes they also want to cry hard.

Chen. is also moving forward with a heavy load, but he always maintains a calm look, and he must have endured a lot of pain. The price of pretending to be strong is the accumulation of suppressed emotions to the extreme.

The eyes are a little complicated.

"Let's take this opportunity to let him vent a bit."

Yahiko led Xiaonan and the red-haired boy and gently closed the door.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen finally packed up everything and walked out of the house.

His cheeks returned to calm again, as usual, accepting this reality calmly.

First, he apologized to Xiao Nan, his appearance just now scared the girl a little, but Xiao Nan dodged his apology, his cheeks were slightly red.

Chen's behavior was so formal that she couldn't accept it.

But at the same time, because of Chen's gaffe, Xiao Nan felt a little more close to this boy, instead of the hazy feeling before.

The previous Chen seemed to be a perfect enough person.

But now his image seemed to become three-dimensional, and he became a flesh and blood person, instantly pulling into the relationship between several people.

"He's sad too."

Thinking of Chen crying bitterly just now, like a child who hasn't grown up.

But several of them are children, but the cruel reality forces them to accelerate their growth.

"He... sometimes needs help from others."

The girl said silently in her heart, but her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
