It was already noon when Jiang Tunan arrived in Yuncheng, and as she was getting closer and closer to the Jiang family, she hesitated again.

The car stopped on the side of the road for a moment. Jiang Tunan started the car, turned around, and drove towards the ancient town.

After nearly two hours of journey, Jiang Tunan arrived at the small town, parked the car and walked inside.

It's not a holiday, but there are still many tourists in the ancient town. Most of them are young people, carrying bags or SLRs, walking around the town.

The ancient town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is still cool and comfortable even on a hot summer day. Jiang Tunan found a clean restaurant and went in for lunch.

Then we walked along the bluestone road towards the familiar alley.

The alley was deep and quiet in the afternoon. In the fleeting light, an unknown cat passed by the wall. A flower leaf fell off and landed on the mottled moss in the corner of the wall.

The inconspicuous bookstore is hidden deep in the alley. A rose sticks its head out from the red wall tiles in the backyard. The faint floral fragrance is wrapped in the unique atmosphere of the ancient alley and permeates the afternoon sunshine.

The door of the bookstore was ajar. Jiang Tunan pushed the door open and went in. It was as quiet as before, with only three or two people sitting at the table reading.

The girl looking after the store was sorting the books on the shelf. When she heard someone coming, she said with a warm smile on her face, "Welcome!"

After she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Jiang Tunan's face, with a flash of surprise and joy, "It's you!"

Jiang Tunan smiled warmly, "Long time no see!"

The girl was wearing light blue suspender jeans and round black-rimmed glasses. Her pretty face was friendly. She came down from the wooden ladder and walked up to Jiang Tunan. She smiled knowingly and said, "I knew you were still there."

Will come!"

Jiang Tunan asked in confusion, "Why?"

The girl rolled her eyes and said, "I can't tell, it's just an intuition."

She looked behind Jiang Tunan and asked, "Where is your boyfriend?"

Probably because both of them were so outstanding in appearance and appearance, she always remembered them clearly.

Jiang Tunan raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "He has something to do."

The girl nodded, "You can sit wherever you like. There are not many people today. Just order whatever you want to drink on the table and the coffee shop next door will bring it to you."

"OK, thanks!"

"Then I'll go get busy. Call me if you need anything!"

Jiang Tunan nodded, silenced his cell phone, and walked into the bookstore.

She took a book casually, still sitting in the same position as before, with the window open, and the chirping of cicadas and the breeze came in from the outside.

She sat quietly, flipping through a few pages of the book, but she couldn't understand what she was reading.

The shadow on the window is tilting, and time is passing away, as if some people and some things cannot be retained no matter what.

She recalled the first time they met in Hongduli. She grabbed the corner of his clothes without hesitation. His eyes when he lowered his head looked even more indifferent and colder than now. He also had the unruliness of a young man, which made people tremble with fear.

But she held on tightly, as if she knew that he would be the salvation of her life.

When she first arrived in Baixia, she had to participate in training. After a few days, her whole body was bruised and the pain was so painful that she couldn't sleep, but she didn't dare to cry.

One night, he entered her room, took medicine and put it on her legs, and asked her, "Do you regret following me?"

There was no light in the room, and she was curled up in the quilt, while his tall figure stood in front of her like a mountain.

She looked at him and said firmly, "I don't regret it!"

In the darkness, he said to her, "With the belief that you have no regrets, your life will have a direction. All suffering will become the cornerstone of your ideals. If you think like this, you won't feel bitter."

At that time, she seemed to understand, and nodded with a blank look in her eyes.

But because of his words, she has been looking for her ideal and life direction. She once thought that her ideal was to become the best one around him.

But later he discovered that there were so many outstanding people around him, and even if she did well, she would not be the most unique in his eyes.

After so many years, have her beliefs and ideals really become clear?
