—— "Friends"

-----

"I got off the plane, have you made contact?" Gu Yu asked anxiously on the other end of the phone.

"Where can I get in touch? I went to look for it in a deserted place." Yi Xianghan sat in the car and patted the reverse wheel anxiously. "Are you in Terminal [-]? Come down quickly."

The car door was slammed down, and without thinking about the long-awaited reunion, Gu Yu quickly put on his seat belt and said, "I feel very strange when I hear him talking, and I panic even more when I turn off the phone."

"Don't worry, think about where he's going. Is it possible to call the police?" Yi Xianghan started the car, and Gu Yu suddenly remembered, "I beg Lu Xun and the others for help!"

The car was speeding on the road, and encountered Leng Qing on the way. After getting in the car, Gu Yu didn't look at him too carefully, and directly stretched out the phone to his eyes, "The location is here! Leng Qing, take a look, where is this, he went to What are you doing there?"

Leng Qing was still panting, took the phone and looked at it carefully, and then said: "Here... This is the place where Qi Zirui lived before."

"Go!"

The car rushed through the red light in a hurry and stopped suddenly in front of the dilapidated and abandoned residential building.Gu Yu opened the car door and rushed up, the stairs were covered with a thick layer of dust, and the dust was billowed up from running.

He rushed up to the rooftop, gasping for breath, his chest heaving violently, and at a glance he saw the familiar figure standing on the wall, calm and indifferent, as peaceful as if he had fallen asleep.

"Jane Bridge?!"

No one responded, and the figure remained motionless.

"—Jian Qiao!!!"

Anxious and eager shouts penetrated into the ears, and the eyes snapped open.There was no pool of blood below, and no outstretched hand, only the empty concrete floor, and a car was parked not far away, the door of which was still closed.

His breathing became rapid, like a drowning person coming out of the water for the first second.Seeing the feet that had already stood on the fence, I was shocked, my legs were sore, my feet were unsteady, and I almost fell down.

"Jane Bridge!"

Gu Yu rushed up quickly, hugged him suddenly, and retreated forcefully. The huge momentum caused them to stagger a few steps, and finally fell into a ball and sat on the ground.Jian Qiao felt his whole body go limp, and when he came back to his senses, tears had already crawled all over his face.

Gu Yu hugged him, and almost broke down and shouted: "Are you going to scare me to death? You fool..."

Jian Qiao hugged him tightly like the rest of his life after a catastrophe, buried him in his arms, grasped the fabric of his back with his fingertips, his heart was like a flood bursting an embankment, and a mountain rock cracked. , calling him out of breath, "Gu Yu..."

"I'm here, I've always been here," Gu Yu patted his back lightly, "It's okay, it's okay."

Tears wet a large area of ​​his clothes, and the crying went from suppressed to erupted, and all the suppressed emotions poured out at this moment.

Leng Qing and Yi Xianghan chased after them panting, seeing that both of them were safe and sound, their hanging hearts finally let go.

"Idiot, idiot, idiot." Gu Yu really wanted to swear all the swear words in his life to greet Jian Qiao's eighteenth generation of ancestors, but when he looked down and saw him crying so sadly, he could only swear in a low voice with a series of useless words. Lethal "dumb".

The car started running again on the road, this time driving very safely, if Yi Xianghan ran a red light again, Yi Xianghan's driver's license would be taken away from him.She sighed softly, and everyone in the car felt so scared that they didn't even dare to think about it.

Sitting in the co-pilot desertedly, he reached out and turned on the music.Gentle pure music flows in the small space.

Gu Yu hugged Jian Qiao, Jian Qiao was physically and mentally exhausted after venting, his eyes were red and swollen, leaning on his shoulder, smelling the light and natural fragrance of laundry detergent on his body, his expression was in a trance, like waking up from a dream.

He held Jian Qiao tightly in his arms, as if he would turn into a cloud of smoke if he let go, leaving no trace.

They came to the consultation room of the hospital where Dr. Bai was.At this time, Dr. Bai had already left work, and had been waiting for them after receiving the call.

After being away from this family for a long time, everyone looks a little more mature.The little girl in their family turned out to be more youthful and handsome. From the window of the consultation room, she could be seen playing skateboarding with Lu Xun in the garden downstairs.

The room is air-conditioned and the temperature is cool.Incense was lit in the room, and there was a calm and peaceful smell.A glass of warm water was placed on the table, and Doctor Bai was sitting behind the table, wearing a white coat, waving to them, with a smile in his eyes, and said warmly, "Long time no see, sit down."

Gu Yu said hello to Dr. Bai, and pulled Jian Qiao to sit down.Jian Qiao's complexion is still not good, and his eyes are still red, and he looks not energetic.

Doctor Bai smiled, his voice was as gentle as wind and water, "Come on, stretch out your hand, I'll take a pulse."

Does the psychiatrist also take the pulse?What kind of strange knowledge is this, Gu Yu is puzzled.Jian Qiao obediently stretched out his hand and put it on the table.Dr. Bai also stretched out his hand, and gently placed his slender fingers on his pulse. Feeling the coolness on his skin, he withdrew his hand and turned the air conditioner up two degrees.

"The pulse condition is quite stable, and something good should happen in the near future," Dr. Bai casually picked up his glasses, put them on, opened the notebook in front of him, and said seriously, "I'm lying to you, I don't know how to take the pulse. What are the symptoms?" ?”

Jian Qiao withdrew his hand, lowered his eyelashes, thoughtfully, and was silent for a moment before speaking, his voice was weak, as if meditating on himself, "Sometimes I am in a trance, unconscious, and don't know why I am still alive."

Gu Yu looked at his side face with mixed emotions in his heart.

"Little Gu, do you understand this situation?"

Upon hearing Dr. Bai's question, Gu Yu's heart became more complicated.He shook his head, feeling very disappointed.He felt that he was at fault. It was because he was obsessed with letting Jianqiao change on his own initiative, but ignored how much courage he needed to take every step.

"I can feel that something is wrong with him, but I don't know the specific situation. We haven't gotten along well for a long time." Gu Yu replied.

Doctor Bai nodded, looked at Jian Qiao, and said softly, "Does anyone know your emotional state?"

"...Yes." Jian Qiao frowned, lowered his head, clenched his fingers, bit his lips, almost bleeding, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Gu Yu immediately grabbed his shoulders and patted him rhythmically.Seeing that he was so uncomfortable, he couldn't bear to continue asking like this, raised his head and said: "How about we come back after a while?"

Dr. Bai looked at Jian Qiao, but shook his head, and softly comforted him, "It's okay. You haven't talked about it for a long time, and today I just want to talk, right? Who is he? Have you ever told him what's on your mind?"

Hearing this, Jian Qiao shook his head slightly, "I haven't said it. But he understands it all, because it's so similar."

Hearing this, Gu Yu immediately understood, he knew who Jian Qiao was talking about, and suddenly remembered that after the reunion with Jian Qiao, he also mentioned this matter to Guan Xiaoli several times.

Sure enough, Jian Qiao continued with difficulty, "Three days ago, he... was alone at home, took a lot of sleeping pills... and passed away."

As soon as these words came out, even Doctor Bai was silent for a while.

Gu Yu remembered a sentence by Vincent van Gogh - nothing is immortal, including art itself.The only thing that is immortal is the understanding of people and the world conveyed by art.

Now that I think about it, those immortal understandings are piled up by the blood and sweat, loneliness, silence, forbearance, and even lives of many people.

Maybe the whole world hopes that Jian Qiao is a rare genius, but Gu Yu only hopes that he is a heartless fool.

Given that Jian Qiao's current situation is not very good, their conversation today is not too long, mainly because Jian Qiao is not very willing to talk too much.Dr. Bai recommended some medicines for insomnia and emotional anxiety to him, and drove them home by the way.

Bai Shen still has experience with such patients.He also tried his best to hold people who were struggling on the line of life and death, and pulled them into the terrible but wonderful real life.

Granted, the world is dirty and messy, sometimes intriguingly dirty, sometimes just right, but it's always worth living seriously.

Maybe it was because today's venting and brief confession made him physically and mentally exhausted. On the way back, Jianqiao quickly fell into a deep sleep without having nightmares or waking up repeatedly.He didn't even wake up when he arrived at the Painting Boat Hall. Gu Yu couldn't bear to wake him up, and carried him into the yard. The wind chime at the door rang twice, it was still the smell of summer.

Gu Yu carefully put Jian Qiao on the bed, and Leng Qing brought a set of old quilts, which are just right for this day.

It seems that Jian Qiao is really sleepy, the pots and pans in the kitchen are clanging, Mei Niang and Lai Fu shouted excitedly when they saw him, but he didn't wake up.

I haven't seen them for a long time, Mei Niang is getting old, and she doesn't run as neatly as before.Laifu not only had children, but also had children of children, some were given to neighbors in the neighborhood, and two stayed at home.One is a girl named Mantou, and the other is a boy named Mop.

I have to say that the names chosen by the young couple Yi Xianghan and Leng Qing are not very good, far worse than the names chosen by Gu Xiaobao and the old man.Gu Yu wanted to play with them, but also wanted to stay by Jian Qiao's side.So he shut a few young and mischievous ones outside, and sat at the desk with Meiniang in his arms, stroking Meiniang's hair while looking around every part of the room.

It's been a long time since he came back, and the room is still as he remembered it.He and Jian Qiao had joked softly on this bed for three whole years, and fell asleep hugging each other.

Meiniang also missed him very much, and repeatedly rubbed her head against his chest.

When it was time to eat dinner, Gu Yu took some vegetables and stood by the bed, holding the bowl and watching him.He is still afraid now, and when he thinks of the scene a few hours ago, he feels a wave of fear.I didn't dare to think about what would happen if I came a little late.

At night, Jian Qiao woke up in a daze, opened his eyes and turned over, humming softly twice.

"Are you awake?" Seeing that he had moved, Gu Yu immediately lay down on the bed, approached and hugged him, "It's ten o'clock, do you want to sleep for a while?"

Jian Qiao lifted the quilt and sat up, shook his head, felt his stomach for a while, "I'm so hungry."

"Then wait for me obediently for a while, and I'll go and warm up your meal." Gu Yu said softly, before he got up, Jian Qiao grabbed him and stared at him without saying a word.

Gu Yu had no choice but to sit by the bed and yelled to the window, "Yi Xianghan, warm up the meal!"

"What are you talking about!" Yi Xianghan quickly yelled back cursing, still using the original formula, "What about your attitude of asking for help? Baby Gu?!"

"Sister——" Gu Yu was forced to speak sweetly, and put his arms around Jian Qiao, groping into his clothes restlessly, while shouting, "I'm already 26, are you sure you still want to call me that?"

Jian Qiao had just had a good night's sleep, but now he touched her heart so much that she couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him on the back of the hand.

Instead, Leng Qing walked in, holding a bowl of lotus root powder paste in his hand, which looked crystal clear and appetizing, although it had no taste.

"Eat some of this to fill your stomach first, Xiang Han wants to make you some soup." Leng Qing approached, Gu Yu reached out to take it, and took a sip himself.

Sitting down on the edge of the bed desertedly, looked at the two of them, and smiled, "You guys are better than before..."

"Don't say you're old!" Gu Yu immediately interrupted him, "I can only say that she is more handsome, more attractive, and more charming."

Jian Qiao rubbed Gu Yu's hair quietly from behind, looked at Leng Qing, and smiled lightly, "How is it better than before?"

"Like an adult," said Leng Qing, tapping Gu Yu's leg with his fingers, "Are you satisfied?"

Gu Yu handed the spoon to Jian Qiao, shaking his head artificially, "It's average."

Only Jian Qiao was eating at the dinner table, but everyone was sitting together, sharing their lives noisily.Even the desolate person who used to be rich in money now has a few words to say, he loves to laugh more than before, talking about his mother finding a leisurely job after coming here, the salary is not too high, but he is happy to be leisurely, knitting sweaters every day, and even giving The dogs in the yard have made several.

Yi Xianghan doesn't seem to have changed with his age, he's still narcissistic, cheerful and lively, going crazy if he disagrees with him, jumping around all day, likes to play tricks on people, but he still looks serious when he's serious.

Zhao Mishan came here once when Jianqiao was asleep.He has restrained himself a bit, and now he is wandering between a steel straight man and an ordinary straight man, and occasionally he can unexpectedly spit out some crooked melons from the dog's mouth.

The current painting boat hall is developing pretty well, especially in the past two years.As the self-level and prestige of several pillars are getting higher and higher, and the young apprentices they lead are also decent, in short, they can be regarded as gaining a foothold in the industry.

Jian Qiao listened to their laughter and slapstick with a smile on his face, Mei Niang and Lai Fu were very clingy, they stood beside him and Gu Yu and looked up without moving their heads.

Late at night, the two slept peacefully together.The world is very peaceful. It began to rain lightly outside the window. After wetting the world, something quietly sprouted green shoots between the cracks in the corner of the wall.

"Qiaoqiao," Gu Yu hugged him from behind, rubbed his head, and asked softly, "Can you grant one of my wishes?"

Hearing this, Jianqiao turned over to face him, and said in a low voice, "What wish?"

"You can paint me," Gu Yu said, "For the next three months, only paint me."

Soft laughter lingered in the quiet night, Gu Yu grabbed him unconvinced, "What are you laughing at? Half a year."

"Why?" Jian Qiao asked.

"There is no reason, it will only be one year if you dare to refute." Gu Yu replied, looking at the handsome eyebrows in front of him, approached, touched his skin until he got close to his lips, and kissed him.

Jian Qiao closed her eyes, and greeted him with a long and tender kiss.

"Jian Qiaoqiao, do I make you happy?" Gu Yu pressed his lips and asked tenderly.

A slight gasp fell on his face, Jian Qiao's lips were flushed, and he nodded without thinking.

"Then draw me, don't stop until the whole world makes you happy," Gu Yu raised his hand, cupped his cheek, and gently stroked his lips with his thumb, with a warm and moist voice Soft and barely audible, but firm as always, "Jian Qiao, I will understand you, I will understand you, I will find you, and I will hold you back."

Jian Qiao looked straight into his eyes, his eyes were warm and his eyelashes trembled slightly.

"What about you, Jian Qiao?" Gu Yu asked softly, "Do you dare to live for me?"

Looking at each other, Jian Qiao suddenly opened his arms and threw himself into his arms, and said muffledly, with a smile in his voice, "As long as you hold me, I won't let go."

There was a small night light by the bed, and Gu Yu stayed awake all the time.Whenever Jian Qiao turned over or moved slightly, he hugged him and patted his back gently.

Jian Qiao is very relieved, just like what he wrote in his letter, although Gu Yu is right in front of him, he misses him endlessly at this moment, wants to hug him, kiss him, and do the most intimate things.

Jian Qiao got closer and closer, reaching out to shake him.Gu Yu said in a low voice, "Huh?"

"I want to hear a story," Jian Qiao said, "like the one you told me before."

"Okay." Gu Yu patted him on the back lightly, thought for a while, and said softly——

"A long time ago, in a beautiful forest, there lived a little grizzly bear named Jane Kaikai. He had a field of roses, lived in a tall tree, and played with a bear every day. One day, he met a The little brown bear is called Gu Xinxin. Gu Xinxin is a shepherd bear who drives sheep everywhere and has no home.

"Gu Xinxin was very pleasantly surprised when he saw Jane Kaikai's rose field. He said, your flowers are so beautiful! Jane Kaikai was also very happy, and said, if you like, I will give you every rose. Gu Xinxin was very touched, I really want to be with him forever. Jane invites him to build a wooden cabin with herself, a home exclusively for them.

"The home was set up, and they started to build the fence again. Gu Xinxin taught Jane Kaikai how to drive the sheep into the fence, because this is what they will do together every day for the rest of their lives. So he said, lovely lambs , go in and rest!

"Jane asked, what if a lamb is lost? Gu Xinxin smiled, grabbed his little bear's paw, and said, let's count them together!

"They started counting, one sheep, two sheep, three sheep, four sheep, five sheep, six sheep, seven sheep..."

Counting to the hundredth sheep, Gu Yu raised his eyes and saw that Jian Qiao was breathing steadily and fell asleep in his arms.Gu Yu whispered in his ear: "Not one is missing."

He reached out to turn off the night light and hugged him to sleep.

The light rain outside the window is pattering, and the world is peaceful and gentle.

Good night, sweet dreams, baby.

When you wake up, you will see the dawn.

The author has something to say: the last two sentences are from Zeng Yike's "Dawn"~
