Run in the opposite direction

Go, the whole person is almost entangled in the quilt.

Xing Chen bent down and pulled his quilt, coaxing him softly: "Qianyan, let go."

But Qiao Qianyan couldn't hear it.

Xing Chen simply climbed onto the bed, pulled the quilt out of Qiao Qianyan's arms with a little force with his wrist, then grabbed his arm and wrapped him in his arms, patted his back and said, "Don't be afraid..."

Xing Chen patted him on the back, kissed his forehead, and comforted him in a low voice. After a long time, Qiao Qianyan stuck to him and stopped moving.Looking at the quiet person in his arms, Xing Chen suddenly wanted to laugh, why he seemed to be coaxing his son.

Qiao Qianyan only slept for more than three hours, and woke up just after dawn. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Xing Chen's stubbled chin, blinking dizzily. Chen broke free from his arms, feeling dizzy for a while.He remembered the dream he had last night, and vaguely remembered that Xing Chen's voice was always in his ears. His body was extremely honest, and once he was in a bad mood, he would immediately feel uncomfortable.

Qiao Qianyan walked out holding onto the wall, poured a cup of hot water and drank it slowly, so that his body didn't feel so heavy.

Qiao Qianyan took out a thermometer to measure his body temperature, and by the way, took out the bread and milk bought the day before yesterday from the refrigerator, ready to make breakfast.He fell asleep leaning on the balcony last night without even taking a shower. After finding that he didn't have a fever, he went to the bathroom to put hot water on his body to take a bath.

Qiao Qianyan was in a daze, forgetting what he was doing, half of his body was soaked in water, and he remembered that he forgot to bring in a dry towel.The heating lamp in the bathroom has not been used for several years, and now the heating effect is not good, so Qiao Qianyan simply stood under the shower for a quick fix.Without a dry towel, he just wrapped his nightgown out of the bathroom, walked quickly all the way to the bedroom to look through his clothes.

Xing Chen half opened his eyes and looked at Qiao Qianyan who bent over to look through the closet.Qiao Qianyan's back was facing him, the nightgown only reached his calf, half of his fair and thin calf was exposed, water droplets slid down his calf to his ankle.Xing Chen suddenly felt dry mouth, and his eyes wandered between Qiao Qianyan's wet nape and red heels, watching Qiao Qianyan take out his clothes and leave the bedroom.Xing Chen lost all sleepiness, jumped up from the bed, walked to the kitchen, and quickly said to Qiao Qianyan: "Qianyan, I won't accompany you today. I'm going home to get some materials now, and then go directly to Shibali Township. "

Qiao Qianyan was making breakfast, and upon seeing this, he said, "So in a hurry? Why don't you leave without something to eat?"

Xing Chen had already turned around and walked out, saying as he walked, "Don't eat, it's too late." When he reached the door, he looked back at Qiao Qianyan: "You should pay attention to everything, and remember to call me if there is any situation."

Qiao Qianyan watched him disappear outside the door like a gust of wind, and was stunned for a few seconds before returning to the kitchen to continue heating milk.

After discussing with her aunt, Qiao Qianyan decided to keep everything simple for grandma's funeral. After all, there are not many relatives in the family, and they have been neglected in recent years. It is better to let grandma go quietly.

My aunt took care of things like choosing a cemetery and issuing a certificate, so Qiao Qianyan went to the prison in the afternoon to inform his father about his grandmother's death.Father Qiao immediately burst into tears, and left the visiting room after leaving a sentence, "There is nothing to do in the future, so don't come here."

Before leaving Ancheng, Qiao Qianyan told his father that he would start a new life with his grandma in Luojiang, and would take good care of his grandma and himself.In just two years, grandma passed away, and he himself was still the same. The promise he made to his father at the beginning was not fulfilled.

Qiao Qianyan came out of the prison. He didn't want to take a taxi, so he walked to the cemetery step by step.Ancheng is the place where he grew up, and all the streets are familiar to him, and the atmosphere of his long-lost hometown makes him feel that winter is not so bleak.Ever since grandma was diagnosed with dementia, Qiao Qianyan has been doing psychological construction constantly, but he never thought that grandma died of an infectious disease.It was much earlier than the doctor estimated, and Qiao Qianyan couldn't get used to this fact for a while.As for the emotional sadness, after experiencing a series of events a few years ago, it is difficult for him to have extreme and intense emotions. He is sad, but he can bear this kind of sadness.

He once thought about how he would live after his grandma passed away, but at that time he thought that grandma would live for a long time, and maybe he would have a wife by then, and if he had children, his life would be completely different.Thinking of this, Xing Chen's face suddenly flashed in Qiao Qianyan's mind, and a few traces of strange guilt appeared in his heart.

It was already evening when Qiao Qianyan arrived at the cemetery. My aunt had already chosen the date of burial. The two of them checked the process together, and they left the cemetery after seven o'clock.Qiao Yu said to Qiao Qianyan: "Qianyan, go to my house for dinner today, you haven't been to my house for so long since you came back."

Although Qiao Qianyan and his aunt were not close, they were relatives after all. The elders invited him, and he was an idler. It would be too embarrassing for him to find a reason to evade, so he agreed.As soon as she got into her aunt's car, Qiao Qianyan received a call from Xing Chen: "Where are you? I'm downstairs at your house."

Qiao Qianyan was taken aback: "Why are you back?"

Xing Chen looked downstairs at the dark windows on the fourth floor and said, "Come and see you. Are you still in the cemetery?"

Qiao Qianyan: "No, I'll go to my aunt's house for dinner. You go back to your own house, don't wait."

Xing Chen replied: "That's fine, tell me when you come back."

The space in the carriage was narrow, and Qiao Yu could clearly hear the male voice on the other side of the phone. She asked casually, "Is it Director Xing?"

Qiao Qianyan: "Yes."

Qiao Yu: "You two have a good relationship?"

Qiao Qianyan: "Well, a very good friend."

Qiao Yu: "What's your plan next? Are you still going to Luojiang?"

Qiao Qianyan: "Probably. But we have to wait until the epidemic in Luojiang is eliminated."

Qiao Yu glanced at him and said kindly: "Qianyan, you really don't want to stay in Ancheng? I remember you are studying finance. If you want, you can come to work in my hospital."

Qiao Qianyan looked ahead, and said flatly: "If I stay in Ancheng, I can't let go of my parents. Why don't I change the environment and relax."

Qiao Yu hesitated and said, "You...to see your dad today, how is he?"

Qiao Qianyan: "Dad was very sad, and left without saying a few words."

Qiao Yu sighed lightly.She has always lived under the shadow of her brother. Qiao resolutely excels and strives for progress, but she is rebellious and depraved. She married Liu Changrong, who was ten years older than herself, at a young age, and has since become a shame in the mouth of her parents.Although she had lived a pretty good life these years, in the eyes of her mother, her elder brother was their pride.Occasionally, Qiao Yu would be envious of her eldest brother, whose wife is virtuous and son filial, and that the family and business are all successful.Unexpectedly, overnight, the eldest brother became a corrupt official who committed a felony, and the sister-in-law committed suicide in depression. Only the old and the young were left in the Qiao family, who left their hometown and went to the remote Luojiang.

Qiao Yu still remembers the time when she was playing with her elder brother when she was a child, and also remembers the days when the family was close and peaceful, but the estrangement of the past twenty years has made her and her relatives gradually become strangers. Now facing her nephew Qiao Yu Qianyan, she is not as smooth as she is with her colleagues.Of course she also knew that Qiao Qianyan came to eat today, just to show her affection as a junior. As for Qiao Qianyan's future path, she couldn't possibly have any place to intervene.

Xing Chen did not go home, but went to his parents' house.

Xing's mother was quite surprised by her son who came back suddenly, and began to babble since he entered the door: "I don't come back once in hundreds of years, and when I come back, I will make a surprise attack. Sit with your father for a while, and I will go buy some food."

Xing Chen: "Eat whatever is at home, and I'm not an outsider."

Mother Xing glared at him: "We two old bones can't eat much in one meal, and we planned to reheat the leftovers at noon at night."

Qiao Qianyan rubbed her mother's shoulders with a smile: "All right, all right, I'll eat as much as you cook."

Father Xing turned down the volume of the TV, watched his son sit back on the sofa, and asked, "Why did you come back suddenly?"

Xing Chen: "I originally had an appointment with someone, but he had something to do temporarily, so I came back for a meal."

Father Xing glanced at him: "I heard that your position as team leader has been suspended."

Xing Chen didn't care and said: "Who puts small reports in front of you every day. It's just a little work mistake, and it will recover after a while."

Father Xing: "Heh, I know Lao Qi well, if it's just a small mistake, he won't punish you."

"Don't talk about this, I know what's in my heart, don't worry." Xing Chen changed the subject and continued to ask, "Dad, do you know Qiao Yiran?"

Xing's father wondered: "Why do you think of asking him?"

Xing Chen smiled: "I heard a few colleagues talking about him today, so I feel curious."

Xing's father: "There is nothing to be curious about, but he is just a corrupt official who is making money, and finally the French Open returns to repay the retribution."

Xing Chen: "What about his family?"

Father Xing thought for a while, and his tone showed some regret: "Speaking of family members, I think Qiao Yiran is really guilty. His wife committed suicide by taking sleeping pills after his accident. He has a son, but he doesn't know where to go now. gone."

Xing Chen seemed to swallow a few ice cubes suddenly. Although he didn't feel cold, there was still a bit of cold air in his stomach.

Xing Chen: "How many crimes did Qiao Yiran commit?"

Father Xing: "That's a lot, and I can't remember clearly. But there is one thing that really harms people's livelihood. Huanzhou Private Primary School, you know?"

Xing Chen nodded. The Huanzhou Private Primary School was established eight years ago, and most of the students in the school are children of migrant workers.Three years ago, a serious food poisoning incident attracted the attention of the government. After a thorough investigation, it was found that the school's teaching buildings did not meet the earthquake resistance standards, the electrical circuits were flammable, and the canteen even failed to meet the minimum standards.On the second day after the government ordered strict reforms, the student dormitory of Huanzhou Private Primary School collapsed. Fortunately, all the students were hospitalized due to food poisoning, and only two dormitory supervisors were seriously injured.

Father Xing shook his head and said, "At the time when the government sold the land for bidding, Qiao resolutely decided to give the land to the principal of Huanzhou Primary School. In terms of qualifications and financial resources, the bosses who bid at that time
