If love can be booked

Chapter 239 Shen Wanning returns home, Aunt Shen calls Lu Jinchuan, Lu Jinchuan is here - 1

In the busy airport hall, I saw the anticipation of the people returning home, the happy smiles when they were reunited, and heard the long-lost love words. Suddenly, a strong sense of loneliness came over me, as if I were an insignificant shrimp in the vast ocean, drifting with the surging waves, searching for something.

People often say that love is like a boomerang, no matter where it flies, it will return to your hand again. However, what we cannot overdraw is the length of love, what we cannot overdraw is the return date of my love for you, and what we cannot overdraw is the eternal vow.

She wanted to disappear for a while, not show up, not say goodbye. If she suddenly disappeared like this, would he miss her? The most humble thing about love is not begging for his love, but pretending that he really loves her when she knows he doesn't love her.

This city carries too many memories and too many stories.

Because of him, she fell in love with this city. But suddenly, she wanted to travel, a trip that she could take at any time.

I bought a ticket to Inner Mongolia, without any specific itinerary, just wanting to wander around as I please. It is too hard to completely let go of my feelings for him. I chose to travel far away, without a destination, and stop wherever I want.

The scenery outside the window receded little by little. No one knew where she was going, not even she herself knew where she would end up.

After traveling thousands of miles, the sky is still very high and very blue.

Under the vast blue sky, a small luggage bag and a lonely figure.

What is nature? What is free air? What is a herd of cattle and horses? Perhaps it is the endless grassland, towering mountains and blue sky like a gemstone in front of you! There is no hustle and bustle of the city here, only the original and pure beauty.

There was no news from her, she didn't come to work, she didn't go home. No one knew where she went, and he didn't know either, she just disappeared like that, as if she had never been there.

"Mr. Lu, Shen Wanning hasn't come to work for three days." Secretary He came up from the accounting department and said softly. Mr. Lu asked him to find out about Shen Wanning.

Hearing this, Mr. Lu frowned slightly: "Have you asked for leave?" Have you not come to work for three days? Are you sick again?

"No, there is no news about her." He Ningqin answered carefully, while secretly observing the changes in Mr. Lu's expression. The boss has been in a bad mood recently, so stay away from strangers.

"I see. You go get busy first." Without any news or leave, he just left. Shen Wanning, where do you think this place is?

Shen Wanning followed the Inner Mongolia route, passing through Datong, Lanzhou and other places, and arrived at the ancient city of Xi'an. This ancient capital full of cultural heritage is like a shining pearl inlaid on the land of China. Every ancient monument carries the memory of history and witnesses the vicissitudes of time.

Trains are now available in Lhasa. Although the terrain is still steep, the scenery along the way is breathtaking. The snow-capped mountains are rolling and the lakes are crystal clear. All of this is Mother Nature's proudest masterpiece, showing her unique charm of casualness and nature.

Traveling, people on the road always have a place in their hearts. The voice of the heart is calling and beating. Until this moment, she suddenly realized that she had always been truly alive, living in this colorful world, with everything around her, and never felt lonely.

Just like that, indulge yourself once, be selfish once, don’t think about him, don’t think about him.

The first week, a faint sense of longing.

In the second week, the feeling of loss and anxiety was self-evident.

In the third week, I felt a little regretful that I had let her indulge in the past. I was afraid that she would be unable to get over it and would hide herself away.

In the fourth week, she still didn't show up. Was she sure that he wouldn't fire her since she had been absent from work for so many days?

Zhu Yaolin sent him an invitation, saying that she was getting married and invited him to attend the Crystal Cathedral in California, USA.

Shen Wanning, are you really going to disappear from my sight? Is this what you call love? Don't you care about my worries?

Shen Wanning finished her month-long trip and was homesick.

I miss home, I want to go home, I want to stop.

The big locust tree at the entrance of the village seemed to be more lush and green than last year. The breeze blew through it, and the branches and leaves rustled. Was it also laughing at her loneliness?

No one was home and the door was closed.

It's four o'clock, they shouldn't have finished get off work yet? I didn't tell them in advance that I would be back today, sitting down at the door.

"Wan Ning?" Li Wanrong walked up to her and saw clearly that it was her baby daughter who came back? Why didn't she tell her in advance? She had lost weight.

"Mom." Shen Wanning called softly. When she wanted to get up, she found her feet were a little numb.

"My silly daughter, why are you sitting here?" Li Wanrong helped her up with concern, her hands were cold.

"You must be freezing, come in quickly." Li Wanrong said with concern, pulling her into the house quickly. She suddenly came back, and she came back by herself? Li Wanrong's heart was still hanging. She didn't see Xiao Lu, what happened to them? Did they have a fight?

Shen Wanning went home. Li Wanrong asked why Lu Jinchuan didn't come back with her, and she said he was busy.

Li Wanrong noticed that her daughter was in a low mood. Her usually lively eyes had lost their luster and she looked depressed. After a closer look, she found that her daughter was even thinner than last time. She was absent-minded and had no appetite when eating. Could it be that the couple had a quarrel? Thinking of this, Li Wanrong decided to call Lu Jinchuan and ask him what was going on.

"Hello." An unfamiliar number from City Z. Who is it?

"Xiao Lu? It's me, Wan Ning's mother." Li Wanrong said cautiously. It turned out that in order to contact Lu Jinchuan, she secretly found his phone number from Shen Wan Ning's mobile phone. In fact, she also knew in her heart that her daughter seemed reluctant to let her family mention Lu Jinchuan too much. Every time when people asked about it, she always evasively avoided the topic.

"Hello, Aunt Shen, what's up?" Lu Jinchuan was surprised to hear the voice coming from the phone. Why did Shen Wanning's mother suddenly call him? And she even called him "Xiao Lu". Have they already met the parents?

"Did you and Wan Ning have a fight? Why didn't you come back together?" Li Wanrong asked suspiciously. Did they really have a fight? For some reason, Lu Jinchuan's voice seemed a little strange at this moment. It was not as gentle as before. Yes, it was gentle. Now it sounded polite and distant.

Just as Lu Jinchuan was about to explain, a very familiar voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone: "Mom, who are you talking to?"

Then came the reply: "No one, no one. Honey, come into the room and help mommy take out the sheets and dry them in the sun."

I only heard a soft reply: "Yeah."

So she went home. Is this why she disappeared for nearly a month? There has been no news from her for a month.

When some people are around, you may not realize how much you care about them. But when they leave, you realize that you can't live without them. They are very important, even if you don't want to admit it sometimes, but they are the most real existence.

"If you are not busy these two days, come and pick her up. She always stays in the room alone, staring at your photos, and I'm worried that something has happened to her." Although she made herself happy every day, she could always see the light in her room on until very late, and she would just flip through their photo albums, crying silently.

"Yeah." Their pictures? In her room? Did they take lots of pictures together? Didn't he hate having his picture taken? His pictures?

"Secretary He, book me a ticket to City T." It's been a month, and I haven't seen her or heard her voice. I miss her, really miss her.

When we arrived at City T, the sun was setting and the sky was dyed orange-red.

He felt lost on the unfamiliar street, not knowing which direction to go. Did you remember being here before?

Just as he was standing there hesitating, a kind-looking old lady slowly walked towards him and greeted him warmly: "Hey, young man, aren't you Shen Wanning's boyfriend!"

Lu Jinchuan was slightly stunned, thinking to himself: How could he run into someone he knew here? And the other person actually knew that he was Shen Wanning's boyfriend? He politely responded, "Well, hello. May I ask who you are?"

"Oh! Young man, I'm their neighbor. We met when you came last year. Can't you find the way to Xiao Shen's house?" The old lady came staggering around the corner with a full basket of vegetables in her hands, and immediately saw him standing there looking around with a confused look on his face.

"Um... yes, grandma." He nodded a little embarrassedly, scratched his head and said. I just called her several times, but without exception, all of them said that the other party's phone was turned off. This seems to be her normal state for the past month, either the phone is turned off or out of service area. I wonder if it is like this for everyone or just for him?

"Come on, follow me, I'll take you there." The old lady greeted him warmly, and then turned and walked forward. He hurriedly followed the old lady's footsteps, and the two chatted with each other along the way.

At the entrance of the village, he passed by a locust tree. The tree looked at least several decades old, with dense branches and leaves like a huge green umbrella spread out in the air. The sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, casting flickering shadows on the ground. Somehow, he always felt that the tree looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

After walking for about ten minutes, the old lady said we had arrived.

"It's here." Pointing to the red gate next to them, the old lady told him.

"Thank you grandma."

The door was locked from the inside, which meant someone was inside. After knocking for a long time, I finally heard the sound of someone coming out.

"Who is it? I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming." As the words fell, the door lock turned and the door slowly opened. Seeing the person outside the door, Shen Wanning thought she was dreaming and could dream of him at any time.

"Jin, Jinchuan..." Shen Wanning murmured to herself, her voice trembling slightly, full of excitement and surprise. It has been a long time since she saw him so closely. The face in her memory is still handsome, with deep eyes as bright as stars, and lips slightly raised under the high nose bridge, outlining a charming smile. Just by looking at him quietly like this, she can feel an invisible charm coming towards her, easily attracting all her attention.

"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Seeing Shen Wanning standing there blankly for a long time without any response, Lu Jinchuan took the lead in breaking the silence and teased with a smile. After not seeing her for a month, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

"You, you, you..." Shen Wanning's eyes widened, her lips trembling, and she said the word "you" three times. If what she saw was an illusion, why could he talk and walk?

Lu Jinchuan frowned impatiently, looked at Shen Wanning who looked dazed and said, "Why are you in a daze? Come in." Did he see the expression on his face? Was it that weird?

Shen Wanning came back to her senses and stammered, "You... why are you here?" How did he know that she was home? She had never told him about it.

"I realized someone was thinking about me, so I came here." Lu Jinchuan said softly with a mysterious smile on his face. He came here immediately after hearing that she had returned home, not for anything else, but because he was afraid that she would suddenly go somewhere else, and he knew that she would not tell him.

Shen Wanning's cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly denied it, "I didn't." In fact, only she knew that it was in this place that Lu Jinchuan once asked her if she missed him. The scene at that time is still vivid in her mind.

"Is there any water?" After entering the room, she didn't react at all. Shouldn't she ask herself if she was thirsty or hungry?

"Oh." How could I forget whether he was thirsty or hungry?

"Here." Seeing that he finished the drink in one go, she poured him another glass.

"You haven't eaten yet? I'll take you to eat." But look at the time, it's three o'clock, the restaurant should not be cooking, right?

"Make me a bowl of noodles." Lu Jinchuan noticed the woman's hesitant expression when she looked at the clock, and guessed her thoughts. He smiled and said gently. After all, this is just a remote town, unlike big cities where you can always find places that provide catering services.

"Okay, wait a moment." Shen Wanning nodded in response to Lu Jinchuan's words. She turned around and walked quickly to the kitchen, trying to find a way to fill his stomach first.

For some reason, Lu Jinchuan went upstairs and went straight to her room.

When he gently pushed open the door, he saw a warm yellow hue. This soft color instantly filled the room with warmth and tranquility. His eyes involuntarily fell on the exquisite desk, where several photos were placed.

The scenes in the photos were like beautiful paintings: her playful and cute smile, his handsome and charming appearance, and their sweet moments of leaning on each other. Whether sitting side by side, lying in each other's arms, or hugging each other tightly, every photo was filled with an extremely bright smile.

The warm sunlight shines through the window onto these photos, making them emit a faint glow, like the most precious treasures deep in memory. In this glow, a lazy feeling quietly spreads and lingers in Lu Jinchuan's heart.

He couldn't help but stare at one of the photos. He was smiling so happily in the picture. It was a self he had never seen before.

"Can I smile so happily?" In the photo, she is happily nestled in his arms, with sunflowers blooming all over the ground behind her. The golden petals are as dazzling as the sun. The sun gently caresses their faces, bringing endless warmth and gentleness.

At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps interrupted Lu Jinchuan's thoughts. "The noodles are ready."

Hearing the sound, Lu Jinchuan slowly turned around and his eyes happened to meet Shen Wanning's.
