unspeakable ice

From the innermost part of the closet, Yu Xiaolong took out his only suit in a dust bag.

At the beginning, Xia Cong said that since it was made to order, such clothes would only be worn once for important occasions, and the next time would count as the next time, but Yu Xiaolong was reluctant, so he packed them carefully and brought them here from a long distance.

People like Xia Cong who are perverse and maverick can never wear straight clothes, so he designed it himself, made slits on the cuffs, and used two gold pins of different lengths to pierce the sides for decoration. .

The luster of the metal is lined on the surface of the crisp material, which does not lose the sense of formality and is not too rigid. The reason why Yu Xiaolong especially likes this is because the clothes worn by the two of them that day have such designs.

Disdain to lie dormant in the depths, but also not to hide people's eyes and ears.

It was the tacit understanding that their relationship once implied.

Yu Xiaolong faced the mirror and put on his clothes.

Sure enough, he was only allowed to wear it once, and it fit him well at first, but now it is much bigger, especially the shoulders and waist are very empty, and it doesn't look so good.

The face is also the same. He bought a hair clipper two days ago and pushed his hair back into a short cut. Without the fluffy cover, the hollows on the cheeks became more prominent, and there was no blood color. One day when he looked in the mirror, he saw it in the eyebrows and eyes. A few traces of bitterness.

Shi Jie saw that he was just staring at him and wandering around without going home. He thought he was still blaming himself for that, so to speak, nothing happened, right? He will be able to get out of bed in a few days, and I promise it will be the same as before Live bumps and jumps.

Later, when Zhao Fei mentioned that he suspected that Yu Xiaolong had quarreled with Xia Cong, Shi Jie stopped talking. He didn't understand the quarrel, and he didn't even know how the two of them get along.

Yu Xiaolong was originally not a talkative person, and he didn't like to laugh very much. Shi Jie observed carefully these few days, and found that he was becoming more and more dull. gas.

This state seemed familiar, but it was not the same. Shi Jie couldn't say what the specific difference was for a while.

Xia Cong didn't come back that day, and after knowing that he had another place to live, Yu Xiaolong no longer worried that he would occupy the magpie's nest, forcing him to live outside. He dumped all the vegetables into the trash can, and sat on the sofa all night with peace of mind. .

He went to the hospital the next day, everything was as usual, Shi Jie was gradually getting better, and nothing happened for a whole week after that.

Song Ye knew that he knew, and with his personality, he would definitely tell Xia Cong, so Xia Cong should also know.

Yu Xiaolong didn't deliberately wait for him to explain to himself, no matter what the reason, he couldn't agree to him making false claims with a woman while pestering himself.

Suo Xing Xia Cong seemed to know what he thought, or he didn't bother to be involved in such troubles at all, so he took this as an opportunity to give up on him directly.

Yu Xiaolong tore off the two gold needles on the cuff, too hard, and the ends left two rough traces on the fabric, but it didn't matter, would he wear it for the third time? He folded it twice and put it on The cuffs are turned in.

A 48:1.5 full-rib imitation of the Peter the Great, if all the masts are installed, the height may exceed [-] meters.

Yu Xiaolong once took it for granted that the handover ceremony to give it to Xia Cong would only take place in this house, at most a piece of cloth was needed to cover the surprise, and the issue of long-distance movement was never in his consideration.

It's like he thought it was a birthday present, but he didn't expect it to be an engagement present in a transformed form.

He didn't go out in the last few days, and sat in the study day and night, knowing that even if he installed it, he would not escape the fate of being disassembled in the end, but he still used the last bit of time to fully assemble all the parts in place.

At the moment when everything was finished, he neither took pictures nor appreciated it, but stood in front of the desk and looked at it quietly for a while, then he turned to the window, the sky was already bright, and the glass was covered with a layer of frost covered with sunlight .

He breathed a sigh of relief, continued to sit down, dismantled the mast and those intricate lines, unloaded all the gun ports, sorted them one by one, and packed them into the cardboard boxes he had prepared in advance.

Yu Xiaolong loaded the carton into the car, and it was rare for him to go anywhere without using the navigation. The most expensive hotel in the city, owned by Xingming, he would pass by once a day on his way to the hospital.

Gu actually said that this engagement, both parties were afraid of long nights and dreams, so it was done hastily, and they should go abroad when they get married.

Yu Xiaolong felt that this arrangement was very humane, if the engagements were all abroad, he might not have the air ticket money to go there.

He parked the car, looked at the cardboard box in his hand, and felt that it was a little unsightly, at least it should be covered with exquisite wrapping paper or something, so as to be worthy of the occasion in front of him.

The entire hotel was reserved, so no instructions were needed. When entering the door, Yu Xiaolong was stopped by the staff, saying that he wanted to check the invitation card.

He replied that he forgot to bring it, and the reception should have started for a while, so he specially stuck to this time to come.

Seeing that the other party was in a dilemma, he changed his words and said that he came with Gu Ran. He arrived a little late, and he believed that if he called Gu Ran now, he would be happy to come to greet him.

After seeing the photo of the invitation in his mobile phone, the man let him go without any doubt.

Yu Xiaolong actually didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to take a look, and he couldn't let the dispute that ended without a problem on the small balcony in the hospital where it was difficult to turn around be the last time he and Xia Cong saw each other in this life.

The auditorium was not as big as he had seen last time, and it was not luxurious to the eye, but every place was exquisitely decorated. When Yu Xiaolong was outside, he even recognized that the band was playing Mozart's Serenade No. 13.

He didn't go in, half of his body was leaning against the door. People in the venue were talking or toasting in twos and threes, but no one noticed him.

He saw Xia Cong almost at a glance, standing with a delicately dressed girl, wearing the most common style of black suit, because of his slender figure and standing upright, he just managed to wear a good temperament from the ordinary.

At this moment, he was slightly leaning sideways and bowing his head, talking to his pretty fiancee beside him. From Yu Xiaolong's perspective, he couldn't see the slight reluctance that Song Ye said in his eyes.

Xia Yi and Lin Weiqian were sitting and standing not far from him. He looked a little thinner than before, and his energy was still good. There was no special joy on his face, but there were no other emotions either. He was as gentle and polite as ever.

He also saw the legendary Guo Feiyan and Xia Zhoufu, different from the aggressive image he imagined, Guo Feiyan was not tall, with a slightly fat body, and when he spoke with a smile on his face, he didn't appear to be aggressive or domineering.

A person in the corner cast his eyes on him, Gu unexpectedly turned his back to the light, leaned against the unnoticed window, saw Yu Xiaolong appearing, he slightly raised his hand, raised his glass to him, and showed a polite but meaningless smile Come.

Yu Xiaolong thought of what he had said to him again, every word that Gu actually said in the past few days, was repeated in his mind over and over again, especially what he said, Xia Cong chose him because of his bad behavior.

Just when he was trying to change, trying to get rid of his past life, and trying to become better for a person, this person was putting all his effort into him because of his badness.

What could be more ironic than that.

Even if Yu Xiaolong is rotten to the bone, he is still a human being.

No matter how humble and humble he lived, he never didn't regard himself as a human being, so why should he, Xia Cong.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would still be lucky enough to find a reason to excuse him. Now that he saw it, he had reason not to believe all the affectionate and earnest words that Xia Cong had said to him before.

There was a loud bang, and the champagne towers stacked one after another on the far right of the stage were hit by something, and fell down in the middle, the wine poured down, and the glass shattered all over the floor.

Huo Yujie screamed and turned her head quickly. Like everyone else, at that moment, she saw a figure at the door, turned around and disappeared without haste.

This was her engagement banquet, and someone dared to behave wildly here. She was angry and anxious, and was about to speak out, when she suddenly saw someone push away the crowd and chased them out quickly.

"Forget it, let someone clean it up, why be so angry." Xia Cong said soft words and comforting words, but he walked in, seeming to lose interest.

He loosened his tie slightly, and the brows seemed to be eroded by the turbid wine of this place, stained with gloom. Seeing this, Huo Yujie suppressed her shock and anger, tugged at his arm, and followed him again tight.

Soon, the people who came in from the hotel first apologized and then calmed down, and quickly cleaned up the scene. In just a few minutes, everything was back to normal, as quickly as if nothing had happened.

Song Ye chased outside, but Yu Xiaolong didn't go far, he ran over, wanted to hold him, wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't keep it, let it go, keep silent, or comfort him. I can't speak a word.

He eagerly called Brother Xiaolong a few times, and looked behind him frequently, as if trying to hold him back and wait for someone to come, but he had already reached the door, and no one came after him.

Yu Xiaolong didn't respond to Song Ye's persuasion, he walked very fast, he only wanted to leave here.

Song Ye was about to cry. He always thought that Xia Cong liked Yu Xiaolong, but how did he get to this point? He couldn't stop him, and he didn't dare not stop him. It's hard to see this person's premonition again.

But he is not Yu Xiaolong's opponent at all, he can stop people who are determined to leave, not to mention he is afraid that if the security guards in the hotel chase them out, he will cause trouble for him.

So in the end, he could only watch him walk out of sight without looking back.

Yu Xiaolong got into the car, the phone rang, Xia Cong called him for the first time in a long time, he picked up, and heard the opposite party say to him without emotion: "Break up."

"Okay." Just like Xia Cong said yes when he asked Xia Cong to take him away, Yu Xiaolong also said yes.

After hanging up the phone, he found that he was not as uncomfortable as he imagined. Maybe he had already experienced the pain that penetrated into the bone marrow when Xia Cong left. With the antibody, he no longer feared it deep in his heart.

He felt that this should be the case, he vented his anger, Xia Cong let him go, they got together and parted, Yu Xiaolong desperately suppressed the complex and surging hatred in his heart, and forced himself to digest them in a limited time.

He still has a lot to do.

He returned to the place that he could no longer call home, packed up his documents and some change of clothes, which he brought over three months ago, compared with the driver's license, and the rest Xia Cong bought for him , he didn't take it away either.

But he didn't take them away or leave them behind. He packed them all up and threw them away as trash.

From entering to leaving, it took less than half an hour. The car was parked in the underground garage, and the key was thrown on the table. He took the door without hesitation, and took a taxi to the hospital.

When I heard that he was going to be transferred to another hospital and back to his hometown, Shi Jie didn't ask a word, he just said that he didn't need to bother. The doctor said that he was recovering well, and he would be discharged in two or three days. It's okay to say hello and leave now. .

If he was in a hurry, he could just buy a ticket to fly that night. Yu Xiaolong's hot blood gradually cooled down after he said so, so it doesn't matter if he waits for two more days, will someone still hold him back?

As a result, Shi Jie was not happy with him. He couldn't lie down for a long time, his back hurts, his butt hurts, and his chest is aggrieved. He is thinking about his bar. He just got it, and his eyes are not full. He has to go back quickly .

Not only that, but he also planned to go to the company where Zhao Fei practiced to see if there was any seat reserved for her if he dropped by.

After asking the doctor and confirming that leaving the hospital early would not be a big risk, Yu Xiaolong bought a plane ticket back to City Z at noon the next day, and bought a first-class flight ticket for Shi Jie so that he could lie down. that money.

Before taking off, Yu Xiaolong contacted Lin Weiqian. Before Shi Jie was hospitalized, neither he nor Xia Cong had time to take care of her. The black dog took her there.

Lin Weiqian didn't say anything, and said in a business-like manner that she would handle the documents as soon as possible and try to return the black dog to him in the shortest possible time.

Yu Xiaolong is very grateful for her attitude. Now he is most afraid of others asking questions or showing concern for him. He is not the kind of person who can accept this kind of person, and neither is Lin Weiqian.

Different from the last time he lost his mind after breaking up, this time Yu Xiaolong behaved very normal, too normal, Shi Jie doesn't live in the mansion now, he stares at the decoration of the bar, eats and sleeps there, Yu Xiaolong lives with him.

He should eat, eat and sleep every day, and this time Shi Jie couldn't help feeling sorry for him, but he seemed to be fine, as if all the things that happened in the past two years were just unremarkable time passing by on the calendar.

Shi Jie endured the pain and itching of the wound from time to time every day, and tried his best to make him laugh and force him to talk. The characteristic of people like Yu Xiaolong is that he can hold back and keep everything in his heart. Stuffed.

He looked at it like this, but he couldn't say that I want to hear you cry. He really had no choice but to tell Zhao Fei that he had suddenly died of an infection. Maybe he could make him shout twice, making Zhao Fei angry Fee whipped him with the book.

After more than a week like this, the dog was sent back, Yu Xiaolong went to the airport to pick him up, but there was no one there for four or five hours, Shi Jie called him, the phone rang and found that someone was upstairs.

He opened the door and went in, Yu Xiaolong was sitting on the sofa, the black dog was wrapped in a blanket by him, lying on the low table, and the electric heater next to it was facing it.

Shi Jie thought it was asleep, but didn't hear it barking, and wanted to say why the electric heater was needed when the air conditioner was on, but when he approached, he found that his eyes were open, but he couldn't stand up.

He suddenly understood something.

This dog is old, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal. Anyway, he has lived a good life for a few years, and he has even been on a plane. How many dogs have been on a plane? Shi Jie sat on the ground, stroking the dog's head, comforting Yu Xiaolong.

Yu Xiaolong remained silent, Shi Jie stayed with him for a while, and when he looked up again, the light from the electric heater illuminated a dark corner of the room, illuminating a turbulent and silent tear on his side face.

It is old, but not that old. If it hadn't been tossed and tossed with him, it should be able to live for a while.

Why did he go, he never felt it, he didn't feel it when Xia Cong was indifferent to him, he didn't feel it when Gu unexpectedly told him the truth, he didn't even feel it when he saw it with his own eyes.

But now that the black dog was about to die, when he was about to die, he realized, as if he had just woken up from a dream, what a ridiculous and ridiculous joke he was when he wholeheartedly wanted to follow Xia Cong.

The black dog exhausted its last strength and arched towards Yu Xiaolong's hand, wanting him to touch itself again, but after putting Yu Xiaolong's hand on it, it closed its eyes.

Yu Xiaolong did not expect that the opportunity that really made him feel that the relationship between him and Xia Cong was completely over was brought to him by a dog. As it gradually stopped breathing, their past became an irreversible link in life and death. .
