[Fiction Reading Network First Release]

We are too close to memories and too far from freedom. Sometimes we are obsessed with them. We just fall in love with memories. One hesitation, one betrayal, and one accident are enough to make it wither and break free from everything and disappear.

——Xi Murong

"I see the weather forecast that it seems to be snowing tonight. Go home early and don't freeze the child." Wen Ziyang lowered his voice and said this to Mu Jilian. He curled the corners of his lips, and his smile seemed a little difficult to understand.

Ruozhen also heard Wen Ziyang's words and nodded to him with a smile. She regarded this as pure concern. But Mu Jilian's eyes were sunken and turned her head to glance at him.

Wen Ziyang let go of his shoulders, picked up Xiao Chengcheng on the ground, and smiled at her, "Chengcheng, dad will take you home for dinner."

"Okay, I'm so hungry, too." Xiao Chengcheng touched his belly and put on a pitiful expression to Wen Ziyang. The cutest ones are as cute as they are.

"Auntie, goodbye! Uncle, goodbye!" Wen Ziyang hugged her and turned around. Xiao Chengcheng did not forget to turn his head and waved his hand to say goodbye to the person.

========================================================================================

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Ruozhen glanced at Mu Jilian's face. She was not very good, and she didn't know if something was wrong with him.

Mu Jilian smiled at her and shook her head, took her hand, and walked towards Xiaobao's classroom.

"Baoba, do you really want to take me to ride a Trojan horse?"

Xiaobao felt a sense of joy when he saw Mu Jilian and Ruozhen appearing at the door of the classroom. He asked excitedly with his arms around Mu Jilian's neck.

Mu Jilian kissed his pink and carved face and said softly, "Dad has pulled the hook with you."

"That's great!"

Ruozhen looked at Xiaobao's excited little face and her mood improved as well.

Because there were children and Ruozhen in the car, Mu Jilian drove very steadily and slowed down a lot than usual, for fear that there would be something wrong with the two heart-to-heart babies in the car.

After getting off the car, Xiaobao took Ruozhen's hand and headed straight for the carousel.

The best amusement place in City A is the Children's Street. There are bustling types of amusement here, with all kinds of them, only you can't imagine, nothing you want to play with, the facilities inside are naturally first-class. The Trojan installations here combine the great achievements of European classical palace decorative art, and are magnificent and brilliant.

Xiaobao looked at the beautiful Trojan horse, and his little heart began to thump, which was so beautiful. He had never seen such a beautiful Trojan horse when he was in Chuncheng.

"Draw, I want to sit on that Trojan horse, purple!" Xiaobao muttered restlessly in Mu Jilian's arms, pointing his little finger at the Trojan horse he was interested in.

Mu Jilian was worried that he was alone, so she took him to sit on it. Ruozhen stood not far away and raised the camera in her hand, signaling her to take a photo of them.

Mu Jilian has never been to the amusement park since she was a child. In his pale childhood, it seemed that only the piano was with him.

Xiaobao followed Baba and sat on this realistic-looking and different-looking Trojan horse, so happy that he could hardly stop. When the father and son were spinning and wandering in the light and shadow and music, they seemed to be in the fairytale Garden of Eden.

Ruozhen's eyes followed the father and son on the purple wooden horse, and felt full of happiness. It was very warm, as if there was a stove in her body. With these two people in her life who had been with her, what else could she not be satisfied with?

Mu Jilian was right. Those who should be let go should be put down. Always holding on to the past will not be good for anyone. She knew that she was a little out of the situation these days. Because of her, the father and son probably didn't live well. It's really not. She thought that the person she loved could live a happy life, but they always became unhappy because of her. Is this the result she wanted?

Ruozhen thought about it and thought of it. Even Mu Jilian pulled Xiaobao to her without realizing it.

"Mama, you should take Xiaobao to make a Trojan horse, right?" Xiaobao pulled the corner of Ruozhen's clothes, and Shuiling's eyes flashed, making the sky look more and more beautiful in the evening.

Ruozhen hugged her arms. The weather was really cold today. It seemed that Wen Ziyang was right, it was really going to snow.

"Will we go home for dinner after this time? Grandma Sha is waiting for us at home."

"Okay, take a picture of us." Xiaobao smiled and gave the camera in Ruozhen's hand to Mu Jilian.

"Mama, I've asked you to choose this time. What's the one you want to sit on?" Xiao Bao pulled the corner of Ruozhen's clothes and looked inquiring tone. He didn't forget his important task, so he wanted to make Mama smile happily.

"Xiaobao likes that color? Mom just sits on that color."

"Then it's blue."

"good."

Ruozhen bent her eyebrows, hugged the little man, and sat on the blue wooden horse together. The wooden horse began to rotate again, accompanied by colorful lights. Ruozhen hugged the person sitting in front of her. She turned her head slightly and could see Mu Jilian taking photos of them with a camera.

This man always looks decisive, but when facing her and Xiaobao, he reveals his unique tenderness. He has gentle eyes and gentle eyes. When such a man treats you, then this man must fall in love with you.

Ruozhen looked at Mu Jilian holding the camera with her slender fingers and pressed the shutter clumsily. This was the first time she discovered that he was unfamiliar with things. No wonder he didn't like to take pictures, so he didn't even know how to operate the camera. But looking at him like this, I felt very happy. How great would it be if their family could go like this for the rest of their lives.

God should hear her prayer. She will not seek fame, fortune or money in this life, but only seek to make happiness flow...

The carousel was lower and higher, constantly turning, and the laughter of the child in his arms became happy with Ruozhen's mood. He bent his lips and exposed two light pink dimples on his cheeks, which was very beautiful.

It's great that she smiles like this. Mu Jilian looked at the photos in the camera and thought, hoping that she would smile like this for the rest of her life. If possible, he would be willing to exchange everything about her beautiful mood at this moment with everything.

===================================================================================

"Baoba, will we come here again next time?" Xiaobao asked anxiously when he got off the Trojan horse.

"As long as you want to come, Baba will bring you. But it will snow today, and you have to go home when it snows, otherwise the baby will get sick. Xiaobao is sick and he will not have the energy to protect his mother."

Xiaobao seemed to understand Mu Jilian's words, but he still smiled sweetly, "Okay, then let's go home now."

The little man turned around and pulled Ruozhen's clothes with his other hand.

"Mom, has Grandma Sha cooked dinner?"

Mu Jilian's car was parked outside the amusement park, where private cars were not allowed to come in. Mu Jilian followed Ruozhen's words and took her children to abide by the places she should abide by, and did not abuse her private rights. It was a role model for him. Moreover, if you get off the car and walk a few steps, it would be nothing wrong with a family holding hands.

"Yeah." Ruozhen nodded to him.

It is almost evening now. The winter evening in City A is not like the setting sun, and the temperature drops very quickly and is very cold. Perhaps because of the cold weather, there are almost no people in the amusement park, and the only family of three is left in the empty venue.

"It's snowing!" The little kid among the two adults looked at the snowflakes floating in the sky and immediately said excitedly.

"The snowflakes look so good." Xiaobao broke free from their hands and ran forward by himself. His two little hands raised in the air to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky.

Ruozhen listened to his tender voice and looked at Mu Jilian with a smile, but unexpectedly he was looking at her.

Mu Jilian reached out to hold her, "Why don't you wear some clothes when your hands are so cold?"

"I've worn four pieces. If I wear one more piece, I'll probably turn into a bloated fat carrot."

He looked at her shy pink cheeks and raised them handsomely, "It's just right, it's comfortable to hold them."

"You are not serious anymore, the children are all here!" Ruozhen patted his hand off her waist, ran up, and pulled Xiaobao to run together. It was indeed a little cold, so when she ran, her body would get hot...

Mu Jilian stood there, looking at the big and small, and couldn't help but smile and speed up the pace under her feet.

"Baoba is catching up, run away!" Xiaobao turned around and saw Mu Jilian not far away, and hurriedly shouted at Ruozhen with a smile.

Ruozhen was about to say goodbye, but Mu Jilian was already stepping forward and hugging them.

"Haha... I was caught by pulling it out..." Xiaobao smiled, and a sweet childish voice lingered in Ruozhen's ears.

But in addition to the childish voice, she also heard another voice, which was very terrifying, with the breath of death.

Ruozhen looked at Mu Jilian surrounding them, and her face was still smiling at them, but her lips were indeed pale.

"Mu Jilian...what is wrong with you?" She didn't know that even the sound of her words was trembling, and her watery eyes were covered with a layer of fog.

Ruozhen wanted to let him go and prepare to check the situation for him, but he did not let her move, and the veins on her hands burst out.

"Don't look back!"

Ruozhen was stopped by his voice and stood there. The panic in her heart and her body began to tremble.

"Xiaobao...will go home when it snows and take his mother..."

Before Mu Jilian could finish her words, there was another gunshot that rang through the sky.

After being shot twice, he grabbed Ruozhen's hand and began to fall off slowly, and then fell to the ground.

Ruozhen looked at the blood flowing on the ground, and her clear eyes were almost dyed with a layer of red.

"Mu Jilian!!!" She squatted down and called him in panic, her hands tremblingly, and didn't know where to put them on him. Crystal tears hang on her eyes, as if they were frozen by the snow and ice.

"Ruozhen... I won't imprison you like before... You're free." Mu Jilian used all her strength to say this sentence in full, then choked and could no longer speak. The pain in his body made him unconscious. When he closed his eyes, a tear slid down from the corner of his eyes. Before he could see his emotions, he was covered with snowflakes.

Ruozhen watched him lying on the ground like a dead person, with a confused heart that had nowhere to rest, "What are you talking about in a mess... Mu Jilian, get up for me!!!"

She shouted and cried, but she couldn't make Mu Jilian react at all. The terrible gunshot sounded again. Ruozhen couldn't react at all. The crying of Xiaobao on the side made her come to her senses. She picked up Xiaobao on the side tightly. The terrible gunshot sound was like a deadly killer move. The sky became darker and darker, and the snowflakes floating in the sky became bigger and bigger, and soon turned into heavy snow.

The warm blood flowing on the ground was quickly condensed. Ruozhen stared at the blood on Mu Jilian's lips changed from pale to purple now. She knew it was an ominous sign...

She felt that the god of death was getting closer and closer to her. The god of death was not about taking her away, but about taking the people around her.

After a whirlwind, there was a force on Ruozhen's shoulder, and she was caught in the car.

The car drove away quickly, but did not bring Mu Jilian who was still lying on the ground.

"Stop! Stop! I'll let you park!!!" Ruozhen sat behind the car and shouted frantically, but the car would not stop. Wen Ziyang simply pulled the accelerator to the bottom, and the car started running on the wide road.

"Ruozhen, calm down!" Nanxi, who was sitting behind her, held her hand and shouted.

"Mu Jilian is injured and hasn't come up yet. It would be very dangerous for him not to go to the hospital now!" Ruozhen choked, the sourness in her throat was almost impossible to say the complete words.

Nanxi pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She also knew that her second brother was in danger now, but she could save one. And what her second brother hoped most was not to let Ruozhen and the child be hurt.

Ruozhen cried, and the tears in her eyes were like a faucet that was not locked. "Nanxi, please let me get off the car, okay? I'm going to find him..."

"Ruozhen, don't you think about Xiaobao?" Nanxi increased his voice and reminded him, "For the sake of the child, you must protect yourself well."

Ruozhen was stunned. Nanxi's words made her regain some rationality. She looked at Xiaobao sitting behind Nanxi, staring at her with her eyes wide open, and shouting weakly, "Mama..."

"Xiaobao, my child." Ruozhen leaned over and carried Xiaobao into his arms, tears bursting out of the dam.

"Mama, don't cry." Xiaobao stretched out his hand to wipe off the tears on Ruozhen's face, and tears were still hanging on his pink face.
