Days are long in summer.

Walking hurriedly towards the last moment of seven o'clock in the evening, the orange glow on the horizon disappeared from sight.

Instead, there were flickering lights along the road.

Looking away from somewhere, Gu Heng entered the unit building.

The elevator was probably under maintenance. He pressed it several times but nothing happened, so he had to carry his suitcase and climb the stairs to the seventh floor.

Although he has always been in good physical condition, this is not an easy job.

By the time he reached the seventh floor, his palms had been deeply scratched by the handle of the suitcase.

Snap.

Put the key into the keyhole, turn it, and the door will open.

In the evening, with the street lights outside the window, the house was still a little dark.

Gu Heng exhaled, adjusted his breathing, and pulled the suitcase into the house.

Although he stayed at Li's house last night, Li Zhongxun will take the exam in a few months. People like Li Zhien, who has an irregular schedule, consciously moved out to live alone two months ago.

He is no exception, and

Looking at the familiar furniture and furnishings in the house, Gu Heng's eyes slightly lowered.

Dragging the suitcase into the living room, he clicked on the incandescent light in the room.

The room is bright.

Just as he was wondering where to start packing, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

"Every word or smile you say means a lot to me; the subtle changes in your eyes and the lonely back are all difficult promises for me."

It's He Jingshu.

"Aunt Jingshu, it's me, what's wrong?"

Gu Heng held the phone to his ear and found a broom and dustpan from the bathroom.

"Have you arrived at your residence, Xiao Heng?" He Jingshu's concerned voice came.

"Well, we just arrived, don't worry."

"It's only at this point in time, do you have time to clean up?" He Jingshu was not very relieved, "I told your uncle Zhong Xin to let you stay for one more night. Why are you so anxious? That kid Zhong Xun has such a brain.

, can it be said that if you sleep less at home for one night, he will get one more point in the exam?"

Gu Heng couldn't help but chuckled twice, "Auntie, we can't let Zhong Xun hear this."

Listening to this tone, although I am not willing to let Li Zhongxun go to study overseas, in terms of evaluation of his academic performance, Ha Jingshu, the mother, and Li Zhien, the Noona, have relatively consistent judgments.

It's just that this judgment seems to be more hurtful.

If Lee Jong-hoon found out, he would probably be depressed for many days.

"How many kilograms of meat has fallen from my own body? Do I still know how much it weighs?"

He Jingshu answered first, and then continued, "You will put your luggage over there for a while, and then go home to eat. I will go over and help you pack it tomorrow morning."

"Um"

In response, Gu Heng put the broom aside and opened the window next to him.

The cool evening breeze of the summer night blew in my face.

August has entered the late summer season, and after dark, the temperature drops quickly.

As if instinctively, he turned his gaze to somewhere opposite.

The window is open.

Gu Heng was slightly startled.

"Then what do you want to eat tonight? Auntie will arrange it for you now. It's a rare time to come back. How can you only have one meal?"

He Jingshu's voice was still coming, but his thoughts were not here at the moment.

Have you never moved out?

Knock knock.

When this thought flashed across his mind subconsciously, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"How about stir-fried shredded pork with green pepper? But you can't put too much chili pepper. Your uncle Zhong Xin has been a little angry lately."

"Um"

With a vague response, and with a sudden surge of inexplicable emotions, Gu Heng came to the door.

Pull the door open.

Their eyes met, and it was a little quiet for a moment.

She probably climbed up the stairs like him. The girl's hair was a little messy, sticking to her sweaty forehead, and her chest was rising and falling slightly.

Lin Yun'er just stood in front of Gu Heng quietly.

There is a certain light rippling in the eyes.

"Huh? Don't you like eating fried meat with green pepper? How about I go to the nearby vegetable market?"

He Jingshu's words made Gu Heng come back to his senses a little, "No, Auntie, well, I still have some things to do here temporarily, and I may not be able to go back tonight."

"Huh? Why again."

In He Jingshu's puzzled voice, Gu Heng hurriedly hung up the phone.

But facing Lin Yuner's bright eyes, he suddenly regretted it.

"Have you never moved out?" After adjusting her breathing, Lin Yoona's voice was a little soft.

"Well," Gu Heng paused, and then added subconsciously, "Last year, the landlord said that since he was not in South Korea, it would be a bit troublesome to handle the cancellation of the lease, so..."

But before he finished speaking, he suddenly couldn't speak anymore when he faced Lin Yuner's eyes.

"I know, I know." Lin Yuner looked up at him and whispered, "You are so smart and can always explain many things clearly. I am stupid, so I have no choice but to believe what you say, but..."

Lin Yoona sniffed, "But do you have to explain everything clearly?"

He had no idea when he saw the light in the opposite window turn on.

It was like a small firework exploded.

In her own heart.

Yoona, there are not as many opportunities left for a person to be brave as we think.

What sunny said suddenly flashed through my mind.

"Are you afraid of running into me even a little bit again after we are separated?"

Looking directly into Gu Heng's eyes, she seemed to find the answer she wanted from his pupils, "Obviously I will come over as soon as I hear He Na's call, and I will come immediately when I hear something that may have a bad impact on me.

I was subconsciously angry, knowing that I would have a headache and discomfort the next day after drinking."

When she said this, her eyes turned slightly red and her words were a little choppy.

Gu Heng's lips moved slightly, and he subconsciously raised his hand and touched her hair.

But maybe she had hidden some words in her heart for too long, or maybe she was worried that after Gu Heng said his next sentence, she would never have the chance to express her thoughts, so she took another half step forward.

So close.

"How are you eating every day? What bad or happy things happened to you?"

"Even if you don't say these words often, it doesn't matter if you ask them occasionally, right? Are we strangers?"

There was a moment of silence.

Lin Yuner's lips moved, she lowered her head in disappointment, and subconsciously took a small step back, "I'm sorry, I"

Before she finished speaking, she was already pulled into a warm embrace.

"No." Gu Heng gently hugged the soft body in his arms and said softly.

Lin Yuner was startled, "What's not that?"

"Not a stranger."

Gu Heng's voice was not very loud.

But every word fell into her ears.

"No one is born to be smart about how to deal with emotions, right?"

"I don't know if it's true or not when you say you're okay, but what I can tell you is that our life, Yoona, is not very good."

Time fell silent quietly.

"Get you a piece of paper?"

"No good."
