I want to accompany you to the end of time

Chapter 41
In the company, Jiang Cheng learned that Xia Nuo had taken a week off, so he called her. After several calls, the cold female customer service voice was still heard: Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please wait. Dial again.

He felt vaguely uneasy, could something have happened?

I called Jiang Keke. Jiang Keke was dealing with the follow-up work in the studio at this time, and hung up after scribbling a few words.

She doesn't know either!
Jiang Cheng was fidgeting in the office, so he called Lu Ziming and asked him, "Did Xia Nuo say anything when he asked for leave?"

Lu Ziming was eating afternoon tea when he was suddenly summoned, before he could swallow the cake in his mouth, he looked at the boss's questioning gaze and shook his head blankly.

Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows: "I don't know or I don't."

Lu Ziming was so scared that he almost choked to death on the cake, and finally swallowed it: "I don't know?"

His tone was a little displeased: "I don't know if you won't ask?"

Usually very smart, why is it not smart at all today.

Lu Ziming hurriedly said, "President, I'll ask right away."

Lu Ziming didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurried out to ask the personnel department about the situation, and then quickly came back to report: "Xia Nuo asked for leave and only said personal leave, but didn't say anything specific."

Jiang Cheng's eyes were stern: "Is the company's system a decoration? Employees ask for leave without even giving a reason, and they are granted leave. Do you want to do it?"

Lu Ziming murmured in a low voice: "They gave the reason, personal leave, but they didn't specify what it is." Besides, there are often people who ask for leave, why don't they see you have an opinion, of course, the last sentence can only be said in my heart.

Jiang Cheng waved his hand impatiently, motioning for him to go out.

Lu Ziming couldn't ask for more, he didn't dare to stay for a moment, and quickly left the door.

After he left, Jiang Cheng picked up his coat, took the elevator down to the parking lot, and drove towards home.

I rang the doorbell at Xia Nuo's house for a long time, but no one answered, and the people in the next room were quarreled. An aunt in her 50s opened the door, saw him and said, "Young man, don't ring it, the girl from this house just now I went out, and there was no one at home."

Jiang Cheng turned around and nodded politely at her: "Auntie, how long has she been gone?"

The neighbor's aunt turned her head to look at the wall watch at home and said, "It should have been two hours, are you her boyfriend?"

Jiang Cheng nodded.

"Xiao Nuo is a good girl, well-behaved and polite, you have to cherish it, you are a boy, you should make room for her when you quarrel." The aunt mistook them for a quarrel and comforted him.

Jiang Cheng bowed politely again: "Auntie, thank you, I understand."

The neighbor's aunt nodded and said: "Okay, don't press here, and get the property later, why don't you come to Auntie's house and wait?"

Jiang Cheng politely refused.

The neighbor's aunt didn't invite any more, and after saying hello, she closed the door. Jiang Cheng lingered at the door for a while, then turned and walked towards the elevator.

As soon as he went downstairs, his phone rang, and when he saw the notification of an incoming call, he quickly swiped the answer button, and said anxiously: "Where did you go, you left without a word, and the phone was turned off, do you know how worried I am. "

The call was from Xia Nuo.

She was in the car at this time, and suddenly she was yelled at by him, and she was a little dazed: "My phone ran out of battery just now, I want to go home, so I asked for leave."

"Why don't you tell me that you want to go home, I will accompany you back."

"I'm already in the car."

"."

"I'm fine. I just miss my mother. I'll be back in a week. There's no signal in the car. I'll hang up first. Take care of yourself."

Jiang Cheng finally ordered: "Call me when you get home, text or call me every day, take care of yourself, come back and tell me I'll pick you up, did you hear me?"

He was relieved when she heard her promise, and asked her to hang up the phone.

After Xia Nuo hung up the phone, she looked at the fields flashing by outside the window and pondered, is she really worthy of Jiang Cheng's treatment of her?

He is the one who wants to stand on the top. Yesterday she swore to Jiang's mother that she would never be the one who dragged him down. Now even she is not sure.

Returning to the unfamiliar and familiar home, Xia's mother was very happy to see her back. Xia Nuo found that she had added a lot of white hair to her temples and lost a lot of weight. Holding her felt uncomfortable.

Xia's father was sitting on the sofa watching TV, as if treating her like air. The mother and daughter exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Xia's mother patted her: "Let's take a break first, and Mom will cook something delicious for you."

Xia Nuo said coquettishly: "It's been a long time since I ate a meal made by my mother. A child with a mother is really happy."

Mother Xia gave a doting smile, and turned to go to the kitchen.

She went back to her room and changed into casual clothes, and then went to the kitchen to help Xia's mother. The mother and daughter were busy with dinner in the small space, and the unhappiness of these days was swept away.

Xia Nuo enjoyed the warmth of home and put those bad things behind her. Mother Jiang suddenly looked up at her: "Xiao Nuo, go talk to your father."

Her hand for chopping vegetables paused, the knife almost cut her hand, she didn't answer, and asked with dark eyes: "Mom, did you forgive him?"

Forgive him for the things that hurt you, forgive him for being irresponsible.

Mother Xia froze for a moment.

Xia Nuo lowered his head and continued chopping vegetables: "Since you can't forget it, how can I forget it."

There are three major questions in her childhood, 1. Why Crayon Shin-chan is only five years old forever, 2. Why Monkey King can make troubles in the sky and defeat gods but always can't beat monsters, 3. Why my parents don't divorce.

The third question has puzzled her for more than ten years, but she still can't find the answer: "Mom, why don't you get a divorce?"

Xia's mother smiled: "It's so old, wouldn't it be a joke for others to get divorced."

"Then why did you marry him?"

Xia's mother was silent for a while, and then said to her seriously: "Xiao Nuo, your father was not like this before."

Mother Xia's meaningful words made Xia Nuo stop asking.

"Mom doesn't want you to live with resentment. No matter how bad he is, he is your father after all."

If she had a choice, she would rather not have such a father.

Mother Xia wanted to continue talking, but Xia Nuo interrupted her: "Mom, I'm hungry."

A low sigh reached her ears.

After the meal, she lay on the bed and sent Jiang Cheng a message: I'm home, I just finished my meal, I'm a little tired and I'm going to rest first.

The message got back almost in seconds: well, have a good rest.

Xia Nuo threw the phone on the bed, and spread out a large font, looking at the dim yellow light on the ceiling, dazzled a little, saw Jiang Cheng in a daze, so close and yet so far away from her.

what is he doing now?

Xia Nuo pulled the quilt to wrap himself tightly, forcing himself not to think about it.

The night outside the window was like water, and the chirping of insects echoed in the long night. Originally, she always felt that this home was her heavy burden, but now lying on the bed, she felt an inexplicable feeling, which was warm.

It was as if a pot of warm water had been poured into my heart.

The next day, Xia Nuo accompanied Xia's mother to weed the vegetables in the vegetable garden.

On the third day, Xia Nuo helped Xia's mother clean up the house.

On the fourth day, Xia Nuo went for a walk with Xia's mother. The winter sun shone on them warmly.

It's strange that Xia's mother didn't ask about Xia Yan this time, most of what she said revolved around her, Xia Nuo enjoyed this feeling of being alone and pampered.

On the fifth day, she walked all the places she used to visit when she was a child, recalling those lonely and simple days while walking.

The happy days always pass by inadvertently, and one day, she will return to the city full of thousands of dreams.
