Midsummer of Eden

After Zhang Chi returned to Hegang, he went straight to the old lady.He was not only refreshed, but also exuded a sour smell all over his body.

Zhang Haiyin knew Zhang Chi so well, seeing him like this now, she felt funny, cooked a table for her grandson, but didn't say anything, just waiting to see when he couldn't hold back.

Sure enough, after breakfast, Zhang Chi sneaked up to the old lady's side, put his arms around her shoulders, and told him about Yin Jueming.

"If you like it, how about moving to the other party's city?"

When Zhang Haiyin said this, Zhang Chi was a little unhappy: "Grandma, why do you always push me out now?"

"You are no longer a chick, I know." Zhang Haiyin patted the back of Zhang Chi's hand, "But one day, you should leave the nest. Grandma is fine, everything is fine, all wishes are fulfilled, and the last My hope is that you will be happy."

The next morning, Zhang Chi returned to his apartment.

He got up very early, just returned to the apartment, and soon went to work again.Therefore, he did not pay attention to the mailbox that had not been checked for a week.

Because the end of the year was approaching, Zhang Chi's workload suddenly increased.It seems that there are always endless drawings, endless lines, and many group meetings.

Zhang Chi thought with all his heart that as long as the work at hand was completed satisfactorily, he would be able to spend a good Christmas vacation with Yin Jueming at the end of the month.

It's only been a week since I came back, and I can't wait, and my thoughts seem to be flooding.

On the other side, Qin Jifeng and Qin Shuo came to visit Yin Jueming.

This was Qin Jifeng's second visit. Although his body had recovered, he was not as good as before.Although Yin Jueming made repeated orders not to come again, Qin Jifeng was very concerned about his legs.

Qin Shuo turned to make tea, while Qin Jifeng sat beside Yin Jueming.

"Over the years, it's really gratifying to see that you all have your own careers and pursuits."

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden." Yin Jueming smiled and handed the peeled apple to Qin Jifeng, "Uncle Qin, what are your plans for the future."

"Well, I'm already at this age. I've experienced everything I should have experienced. I wanted to see the scenery I haven't seen before. But Qin Shuo, you know, I'm always worried about him."

Yin Jueming was silent for a moment, then smiled at Qin Jifeng: "Don't worry, I will take care of him for you."

Qin Jifeng shook his head very slowly: "Jueming, these years, do you think I don't care enough for you?"

Yin Jueming smiled and shook his head quickly: "How come? You gave me more than I expected."

Qin Jifeng's face was a little moved: "I know, what you have been thinking in your heart. You think Qin Shuo is my own son, and I will take care of you, just like you must take care of Qin Shuo in the future. These years, you He is good, I can see it in my eyes."

"However, Jueming, what I want to say is..." Qin Jifeng thought for a while, and smiled a little embarrassedly. He looked at Yin Jueming seriously, "I have never, never regarded you as an accessory. I am on you The energy and time you have put in, I have watched you grow up little by little, until now..."

Yin Jueming suddenly realized what Qin Jifeng wanted to say, and in an instant, that lazy energy faded from him.He sat up straight involuntarily, and even clenched the hands on his lap unconsciously.

"Actually, I have always regarded you as my son." Qin Jifeng said.

Yin Jueming's eye sockets were instantly wet.He lowered his head a little out of composure, but couldn't hide his red eyes.

Qin Jifeng looked at Yin Jueming like that, as if he suddenly saw that shy little boy standing in front of him many years ago.

Covering the top of Yin Jueming's hair with his old hands, he gently rubbed it: "You, like Qin Shuo, are my important children to me."

Yin Jueming's tears fell uncontrollably.

Qin Shuo who was in the kitchen didn't know if he heard a few words, but he didn't come over quietly, leaving a small space for the two of them.

"Over the years, you seldom told me about you, but you were always with Qin Shuo. Of course I—" Qin Jifeng thought about his words and smiled, "Of course I hope you are really on good terms. But I also I was very scared, and I was afraid that you would take all this as repayment. You told me that day that you had a lover and wanted to bring it to me to meet... I am really happy."

"Uncle Qin..."

"Don't cry, brat." Qin Jifeng rubbed Yin Jueming's hair again, his hands became stronger.

Then, he took out several documents from the bag he carried with him.

"You need to look carefully at these. On Monday, I will bring a lawyer...Jueming, I know my body very well. So I think it's time."

Yin Jueming just took a look, but couldn't accept it.It was a legacy and a succession of identities.

At this moment, his whole body and mind are trapped in a huge emotion, which is very complicated.There is shock, hesitation, ecstasy, and emotion.

For too many years, he has never experienced such a shocking feeling again.It was as if a certain gift that I had been waiting and guessing for so many years had finally landed in my hand.

"No...I don't want to." Yin Jueming rubbed his cheeks, holding back the surging emotion in his chest, "I just want to be with you."

"No one can stay with anyone forever, except his partner." Qin Jifeng blinked at him, "You told me, you have already found it, haven't you. The next road, you have to go on your own. Don't worry about Qin Don't worry if you hold yourself back. Jueming, I have always thought that you should be the kind of person who does what you want to do. I have devoted many years to this, so don't let me down."

Qin Shuo listened to the conversation in the living room and leaned silently on the stone counter in the kitchen.

The coffee was already a little cold, and it was Yin Jueming's favorite strength.

He drank the cup of coffee without sugar and milk very slowly by himself—it was really bitter, really bitter.

When the father and son of the Qin family were about to leave, Qin Shuo turned around and said something to Qin Jifeng. Qin Jifeng nodded at Yin Jueming through him, turned around and went downstairs first.

Then Qin Shuo turned his head and looked at Yin Jueming who was sitting in a wheelchair and stayed in the entrance.

After a long time, he said, "Let's talk."

"Okay." Yin Jueming hardly hesitated.

"You didn't really take what I said to you before, did you?"

When Yin Jueming was not smiling, he felt alienated, but at this moment, his face looked very gentle under the afternoon sun.

Even the sense of distance has disappeared.

Of course he knew what Qin Shuo was referring to.

"No, of course I do, I always do."

"You're lying."

"Even earlier, I probably knew about it." Yin Jueming looked at him seriously.

"Then why...you never showed it!" The expression on Qin Shuo's face finally broke.

"Some things must be confessed to the sun to be considered sincere?" Yin Jueming said, "I believe that for you at that time, you would not think about our relationship and development. If it hadn't been for my sister's death, there would have been no later return to China The farce of the engagement, maybe, I will continue to love you without hitting the wall. But Qin Shuo, it's over. And now, I'm really happy."

Qin Shuo clenched his fists fiercely, and he seemed to be trying his best to endure, so that his reason could control his emotions.

Under the sun, Yin Jueming seemed to smile at him, but didn't seem to: "Can you bless me?"

This time, Qin Shuo was silent for a long time.

"I don't trust myself, but I don't trust you, let alone him."

Yin Jueming looked at him calmly.

"If he comes this time, I will choose to believe you. You can't go anywhere until Christmas." Qin Shuo's expression suddenly turned dark, as if he had retreated into a shadow, and soon exposed his emotions completely. Hidden again.

"What do you mean?"

"He won't come." Qin Shuo also gradually regained his composure, his eyes no longer had all the emotions just now, "But if he comes... I will bless you, Jueming."

"Speak clearly." Yin Jueming gradually frowned.

"The script." Qin Shuo said, "I sent him a copy of the script you wrote in Arima Town, "Eden."

In an instant, Yin Jueming's whole body tensed up.His gaze is gradually changing, and there are many emotions in it.When facing Yin Jueming, Qin Shuo often felt discouraged, as if he had never provoked Yin Jueming's strong emotions.No matter how you try to amuse him, or make him angry on purpose.Yin Jueming was there, as if he would always be the same.

Although, it was not until later that Qin Shuo was told that he had been loved all along.Those loves are wrapped in long years, buried deep in invisible dust, and never see the light of day.

But it actually existed.But he missed it.

How can people be reconciled?

"I know that "Garden of Eden" means a lot to you. At that time, I came to Arima Town for the first time, read it for the first time, and almost understood it as soon as I read it." Qin Shuo said, "You think I was Outraged by your free play. No, it wasn’t. Precisely because I read it. But I didn’t stand for it, and I didn’t even know who that person was at the time.”

"So you started testing me."

"Don't say that." Qin Shuo took a step forward, trying to close the distance with Yin Jueming.But because of this, Yin Jueming could only raise his head slightly to look at him.Qin Shuo pinched his chin and looked at him carefully, "What a beautiful face. Guess whether he likes your skin, your bones, or really loves you."

"You already knew." Yin Jueming said firmly.

"I knew it a long time ago." Qin Shuo said, "The notebook I sent him, after he gets it, he will understand how the relationship between you started. He is just a template, just for you to find inspiration, or A deliberate accident for the sake of writing, isn't it? Once you start writing, you put yourself into the story, even at your own expense, getting caught up in all the dramatic developments. Once the story is over, you pull away. Go. If Zhang Chi is not stupid, he should be able to read and understand this script, and even more so, he should understand that your beginnings were all a scheme!"

Although Yin Jueming was motionless, it looked as if all his strength had been taken away.He remained motionless, letting Qin Shuo hold his chin and look at him.

"For me, why do you have to do this?"

"Because I'm not reconciled!" Qin Shuo suddenly shouted.

Yin Jueming was silent again.In silence, he was also looking at the panting Qin Shuo.

"You see, this is the difference between me and you." Yin Jueming skillfully pushed the wheel of the wheelchair and moved back a little distance, "When I love someone, I only want him well. As for myself, I don't have time to think about it." Jealousy, unwillingness, of course there will be, because I am also human, of course I also have a heart..."

Qin Shuo's voice sounded a little hoarse, but if he listened carefully, there was a hint of pleading: "Jueming..."

"The emotion created for the sake of creating and entering the play...maybe like you said, there are some factors like this. But Qin Shuo, there is one thing that is wrong. There has never been a calculation." Yin Jueming stopped the wheelchair and turned his head slightly.

The clouds covering the sun dispersed, making Yin Jueming look a bit backlit from this angle, and the edges of his body seemed to be haloed.

"I have made it very clear. I don't know what you want. Maybe you have to find it yourself." Yin Jueming turned the wheelchair again, and his figure gradually disappeared behind the wall of the entrance. "I am always grateful for meeting you, But I will work hard to get to my lover."
