    Turn off the phone and draw all the curtains. He slept darkly. However, in the dream, he was not stable either, blurred faces emerged from the depths of the darkness, his voice was shrill, and he kept calling out his name.

    Jingle bell, the doorbell rang suddenly outside.

    He plugged his ears with pillows and burrowed deeper into the quilt, ignoring it at all, but the doorbell continued to ring, as if he was competing with him.

    Xu Xizhou finally couldn't bear it anymore, swearing swear words, got out of bed and went to the living room without wearing his shoes.

    Opening the door, he was slightly taken aback.

    Zhuang Jingchun stood in front of him with a light green windbreaker, carrying two paper bags with some worry in her eyes.

    When Xu Xizhou saw him, the anger and anger in his chest disappeared instantly, but a deep sense of powerlessness surged in his heart.

    "Don't you have a spare key? Why did you ring the doorbell?"

    "I know you want to be alone. If I go in, you'll probably kick me out."

    Zhuang Jingchun raised the paper bag in her hand, "Freshly baked croissants, and hot cocoa, would you like to drink it?"

    Xu Xizhou scratched his messy hair and shook his head.

    He walked back to the living room and sat down on the wool rug by the coffee table, hugging his knees.

    He was lifeless as a whole, like a plant lacking sunlight and water.

    "Have you... heard of it all?" Xu Xizhou asked.

    Zhuang Jingchun put the paper bag on the coffee table, thought for a few seconds, and then said, "Last night, I received a photo from an unfamiliar number, the man sitting across from you, I happened to meet at a business forum, so I checked it out. Some information..."

    Xu Xizhou twitched the corners of his mouth, "Don't you think that I'm blinded by money and throw my arms around a rich man, right?"

    "Of course not, why do you say that about yourself?"

    Zhuang Jingchun frowned, he walked in front of him, squatted down, and looked into Xu Xizhou's eyes.

    "Remember when you took your driver's license test and helped the police catch a wanted criminal?"

    Hearing his words, Xu Xizhou's dazed eyes gradually became focused.

    "That was a vicious criminal. Eighteen years ago, he kidnapped your mother and kidnapped you as an infant. He and his accomplices wanted to ask your grandfather for a high price for ransom, but the matter was revealed, and they were afraid of being The police found you and abandoned you in the wilderness."

    Xu Xizhou looked at him blankly, and after a while, his eyes rolled.

    "Why do you know so much?"

    Zhuang Jingchun glanced out the window with a complicated expression.

    "Your real mother, she's here too, just below the apartment. That's what she told me."

    His biological mother?

    Xu Xizhou frowned and glanced out the window subconsciously. If what the man said yesterday is correct, he actually has parents, but his father died in a car accident, so only his mother remains in this world...

    What would his biological mother be like?

    Before he even noticed it, a gentle and vague shadow had already appeared in his mind.

    And soon after, he forced himself to be sane again.

    It's just because of bloody blood. His biological mother was now just a stranger to him.

    "Are you going to see him?"

    Zhuang Jingchun held his shoulders and stared at him gently.

    Xu Xizhou opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't say a word. He rubbed his hair irritably, "I don't want to see her, let her go."

    He went back to the bedroom and got into his bed. London's weather has always been changeable. I don't know when, it rained lightly outside, and the sky was gloomy and gloomy.

    Xu Xizhou didn't fall asleep at all, just listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the window. He stared blankly at the water flowing through the transparent glass, and out of the corner of his eye suddenly caught a glimpse of a slender figure sitting beside his bed.

    "You have a game next week, no matter what, you can't go hungry, eat something first."

    "I have no appetite, you can eat it yourself."

    Xu Xizhou pulled the quilt up and directly wrapped his entire face in.

    Zhuang Jingchun listened to his muffled voice and didn't know what it was like. Thinking of what the woman had just said to him downstairs in the apartment, his expression became even more complicated.

    "She asked me to bring you something." Zhuang Jingchun took out a black box from her coat pocket and put it on the bedside table.

    "I won't advise you to go down to see her. No matter what you decide, I will support you."

    Hearing Zhuang Jingchun walking away, Xu Xizhou lay down for a while, and finally couldn't help being curious and sat up from the bed.

    On the bedside table was the black box that Ren Junyun planned to give him yesterday. At that time, he was so excited that he left without taking the box.

    He hesitated for a while before reaching out and opening the box. When he saw what was inside, he was stunned for a moment. It was a golden longevity lock with a Greek character engraved on it.

    In an instant, there seemed to be some distant memory flooding up. His small body lay in the cradle, the woman's gentle singing beside his ears, the golden long-life lock hung on the edge of his cradle, and the bell swayed and made a crisp sound.

    Xu Xizhou was holding the longevity lock, and his eyes gradually turned red.

    He straightened up and glanced out the window. On a bench in the shade of a tree, a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat was sitting quietly.

    Suddenly, there was a sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the bedroom.

    Zhuang Jingchun was a little worried, and was about to ask, when the door was opened from the inside, Xu Xizhou changed into a casual hoodie and stood in front of him a little helpless.

    Seeing Shangzhuang Jingchun's scrutiny, Xu Xizhou suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

    "I...I'm going to return the longevity lock to her, don't think about it."

    He stammered, and the foreword did not follow.

    Zhuang Jingchun smiled lightly and straightened the crooked hat for him.
