Children are always curious about new things, and Wen Youqing is no exception. The man in front of her suddenly said something inexplicable, so she was naturally curious about what he was going to do.
"Finish all the things you want to do but haven't done yet, and then die."
The man smiled and said, "Can you come with me?"
"..." Wen Youqing shrank back again, with some resistance and fear, but at this moment, the original vigilance in her eyes had disappeared.
"You're not going to hurt me, are you?"
she asked timidly.
"You want to die, I want to die, how could I hurt you?"
The man was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at himself and said, "Why would I want to hurt you? What do I want from you?"
"Oh."
Wen Youqing thought about it and agreed.
She didn't plan to live any longer.
Because she no longer has a home.
People without a home are like trees without soil or fish jumping out of water; in short, they will not live long.
"Ok."
Wen Youqing nodded.
Although she is still somewhat afraid of death, she now feels that it is a good thing to have another person accompany her before she dies.
She asked the man:
"So what else have you not finished?"
"Hmm..." The man pondered for a moment and said, "I have another bowl of wontons that I really want to eat. It is said that it is still open in the evening. If I go now, I should be able to catch it..."
"there is none left?"
"Let's finish eating the wontons first."
"Oh...are you really going to die?"
"After I finish what I have to do, I will die."
"you swear."
"I swear."
"Ok."
Wen Youqing stood up and walked to the dark boundary illuminated by the faint light.
Half of her body was in darkness, and the other half was bathed in light.
She saw the man in front of her clearly.
Very good looking and handsome.
Such a good-looking guy can also be deceived by a bad woman...Bad women are so scary.
Wen Youqing shrank his neck and thought so.
Sudden.
The man held out his hand.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Jingyan."
"Oh."
Wen Youqing hesitated for a moment, then followed his example and stretched out his hand.
"My name is Wen Youqing."
The two hands are overlapped.
Wen Youqing was pulled out of the darkness.
Bathed in light.
5. I don’t think about it anymore (k chapter)
It was a cold night.
It was the coldest night I have ever spent in the holy city.
But strangely, when Master appeared beside me, I no longer felt cold.
---
Jing Yan walked in front, and Wen Youqing followed behind him, closely.
Like a shadow.
None of them spoke, perhaps communication between languages was not important.
They came to the wonton stall.
This was discovered by Jing Yan during the day. The owner was an elderly Nanposo man. The sign on his door read "Closed Late Night", but no one knew what time he defined late night as.
Jingyan had no idea, he could only hope for luck and come here to take a look.
Fortunately, the owner was still packing up the stall before they arrived.
The stall was an old cart with a bell tied to it. The bell swayed in the wind, making clear sounds, crisp and clean.
Like the evening wind.
Jing Yan sat on the stall. The bench was a simple stool, which could be folded up from both sides to the center and was very easy to carry.
Wen Youqing sat down cautiously opposite Jing Yan, thinking that he wouldn't let her pay...that was a bit too much.
"Boss, did you take a break?"
"Not yet. I'll go back after I finish making your bowl. What do you want to order?"
Although the boss is old, he is still in good spirits. He stands straight and his voice is kind and cheerful.
"I want a bowl of wontons, a small portion."
After saying that, Jing Yan pointed at Wen Youqing in front of him.
"She wants a bowl too, a big one."
The boss looked at Wen Youqing in surprise, as if he was curious whether such a young child could finish a large bowl of wontons. He kindly reminded: "Although my stall is small, each bowl is quite large."
Jing Yan smiled and shook his head: "Boss, just do it, I guarantee there won't be any waste."
"okay."
The boss put the wontons into the boiling noodle soup. For a moment, a rich aroma filled the air. Wen Youqing sniffed, and the smell made her salivate.
She touched her belly.
There was a strange noise coming from my stomach.
Her face turned red, thinking that she hadn't eaten for two days. She could have endured it, but now under the temptation of delicious food, she couldn't resist the hunger.
Jing Yan saw her movements and smiled, "Why, are you hungry?"
"You are a very strange person."
Wen Youqing spoke in a low voice.
"Is it true that the only thing you haven't finished is eating a bowl of wontons?"
"Really? You know, death is a big deal. You have to fill your stomach before doing big things. Even the death row prisoners on the execution ground have a last meal before execution."
Jing Yan said seriously that he never lied to children.
"Oh......"
Wen Youqing just felt that it made sense, but also seemed strange. She couldn't put her finger on what was strange, so she could only sigh.
"You can't lie to a child, or Meng Po won't give you soup after you die."
"Didn't I say that there is no Meng Po?" Jing Yan raised his eyebrows: "Even the underworld is fake."
"Yes, I haven't forgotten what you said, but I feel like you're lying to me."
Wen Youqing raised his head at this moment, his dark eyes reflected some starlight, appearing somewhat bright.
She said seriously: "But if there is really nothing, wouldn't it be too pitiful?"
"Poor?" Jing Yan was stunned: "What do you mean pitiful?"
"Sad man."
Wen Youqing blinked.
"If we don't even give them a chance to forget everything, isn't that... pathetic?"
As she said this, she glanced at the scriptures and then looked at herself.
She was talking about both of them.
Jing Yan was stunned and didn't know how to answer. He suddenly wanted to touch Wen Youqing's head and comfort her, but she was so alert.
The Mad Pope was a poor child when he was young.
Jing Yan thought so.
Just when neither of them knew what to say next, the boss brought two bowls of hot wontons to the table. He placed the small bowl in front of Jing Yan and the large bowl in front of Wen Youqing.
Remind: "Eat slowly, it's hot, I'm not in a hurry to close the stall."
"thank you boss."
Jing Yan said to the boss, Wen Youqing followed suit and whispered, "......Thank you......Thank you."
The boss smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome, just eat."
Just like that, Wen Youqing began to eat the wontons in small bites. The soup was really hot, so she could only bite the dough in small bites. She waited until the wonton filling cooled down before she started to eat the meat.
At first, she ate very slowly.
In fact, there is nothing particularly delicious about this bowl of wontons. The filling is just simple pork and seasoning, and Jing Yan can make it by himself.
But Wen Youqing thinks this is the most delicious thing in the world.
When the dough was bitten open and the filling burst out with juice, Wen Youqing's face was accidentally splashed, and she frowned slightly.
But all she saw was a pair of big hands holding a tissue and wiping the soup off her face.
The man smiled gently. He just looked at him and said softly, "Eat slowly. Don't be in a hurry."
Something welled up in Wen Youqing's eyes, perhaps some liquid, and she tried her best not to let the tears fall. The girl lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you."
"It's fine."
The man answered, his eyes sparkling, very nice.
Wen Youqing lowered her head and continued to eat the wontons in her bowl. In fact, the bowl of wontons was very big, big enough for two people, but Wen Youqing was too hungry, so she ate it all by herself.
Only after she had drunk every last drop of soup did she touch her round belly and raise her head.
"what happened?"
Jingyan asked.
"No... not full."
Perhaps the man who answered had already guessed it, so he pushed his bowl in front of him and said, "Then you can eat mine, I'm full."
"But......"
Wen Youqing looked at the untouched hun dong in the bowl and asked in confusion, "You clearly haven't even started eating yet."
"But I'm full."
Jing Yan rubbed his stomach and said, "I am so angry about that bad woman I mentioned."
This seemed like a joke. Wen Youqing was stunned for a moment before he reacted and suddenly laughed.
