Morbid Addiction

Chen Yuncheng asked Ning Junyan to hold herself in his arms and talk to him: "I can't borrow your money anymore."

Ning Junyan bowed his head and kissed his hair.

Chen Yuncheng said: "This money is used to invest in business. It's different from waiting for life-saving last time. It's not necessary. I slow down and take my time. As long as I work harder, I can always make money."

Ning Junyan tilted his head, rubbing his cheek against the top of his head, as if he couldn't love this kind of intimate touch, and said, "Then what am I going to do with the money?"

Chen Yuncheng said "Huh?" and looked at him in doubt, "What?"

Ning Junyan said: "I want to make money to support my wife."

Chen Yuncheng couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "I don't want you to support me."

Ning Junyan said, "Then you admit that she is my wife?"

Chen Yuncheng smiled and did not speak.

Ning Junyan said again: "Then you can support me, I will give you all my money, and you will buy me everything in the future."

Chen Yuncheng said: "Whatever you want now, I will buy it for you if I can afford it. You don't need to hand over the money to me."

Ning Junyan was silent for a while, and said, "Don't you think this is unfair?"

"How unfair?"

Ning Junyan squeezed Chen Yuncheng's chin with his hands, raised his head and looked at him with a serious expression, "You think I can spend your money, but you can't spend mine, you put us on equal footing in your heart status?"

Chen Yuncheng thought for a while, and answered him seriously: "This is different. What I need now is not such small money as daily expenses. Doing business is very risky, and the money I invest may not necessarily be rewarded. How can I take your money?" risk your money? And I already owe you money."

"You don't want to use mine for daily expenses, you don't live in a house, you don't want clothes, what do you take me for?" Ning Junyan's tone was a little cold, as if he was really angry.

Chen Yuncheng wanted to sit up, but he first pushed away Ning Junyan's gripping hand, and just as he pushed himself away from Ning Junyan's embrace, Ning Junyan grabbed him back.

Ning Junyan put his arms around him, and said coldly: "Why run!"

Chen Yuncheng had no choice but to continue to let him hold her, and said: "I am very serious about this relationship, don't say that about me, maybe it is too serious, sometimes I don't know how to deal with it." After finishing speaking, Chen Yuncheng looked up at Ning Junyan, he was always afraid that if he did not do well enough in some things, one day it would affect the relationship between him and Ning Junyan.

Ning Junyan had been stared at by him for a long time, his eyelashes drooped, his eyes became soft, and he asked him, "Then what are your plans for the money?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "Let's find a way to borrow it, and I'll think of a way."

Ning Junyan asked again: "What channel?"

"A bank or some financial institution," Chen Yuncheng had been checking various financial institutions for loans, hoping to find one that was a little more reliable.

Ning Junyan asked, "Do you want to try a mortgage loan?"

Chen Yuncheng was a little strange, and said, "What do you want to mortgage? I don't have anything to mortgage."

Ning Junyan raised Chen Yuncheng's face to look at it, then stretched out his hand to lift the quilt to take a look, they were not dressed yet, Chen Yuncheng quickly pulled back the quilt, and then heard Ning Junyan say: "Purchase your body. "

Chen Yuncheng was angry and funny, and said, "My body is only worth 10 yuan?"

Ning Junyan said flatly: "No one wants it except me."

Chen Yuncheng was not convinced, "That's not necessarily true."

Ning Junyan suddenly turned over and pressed him down, and said in a cold tone: "It's not necessarily true, don't even think about it."

Chen Yuncheng looked at him with a slight smile: "Stop making trouble."

Ning Junyan relaxed his strength, lay on Chen Yuncheng's body, and said, "Give me your mortgage, and I'll give you the money. If 10 yuan is not enough, I will work hard to make money, and I will give you whatever I want."

Chen Yuncheng raised his arms to hug him, suddenly felt sore, and said: "Enough is enough, and only in your heart, I am worth so much money."

Ning Junyan said, "Is it settled?"

Chen Yuncheng answered him: "Let me think again."

They woke up very early the next day, and Ning Junyan drove to pick up Gu Yaojia and the child, and then rushed to the city courtyard where Zhou Yan's hometown was located.

When she arrived at the court, the trial had not yet started. When Gu Yaojia wanted to enter the court with her son in her arms, she was stopped by the bailiff and the child was not allowed to enter.

Gu Yaojia was very embarrassed, and begged the bailiff for a few words, but was not accommodated.

Ning Junyan said at this time: "You give the child to me, you go in."

Gu Yaojia heard the words and looked at him.

Chen Yuncheng said to Gu Yaojia: "Let him watch the child, the two of us will go in and listen to the trial."

Gu Yaojia had no better choice and handed over the child to Ning Junyan.

The child was handed over to a strange man and burst into tears.

Chen Yuncheng saw that Ning Junyan frowned, looking a little at a loss, and asked him, "Can you?"

Ning Junyan just nodded.

Gu Yaojia comforted the child for a while, and when she heard that the court was about to start, she went in with Chen Yuncheng, found a seat and sat down.

When Zhou Yan was brought out by the bailiff, he glanced in their direction, his expression a little excited, but soon he stood in the defendant's position with his back to them.

Chen Yuncheng hadn't seen Zhou Yan for several months. His hair was cut very short, and after being locked up in the detention center for so long, he looked paler and fatter than before.

Gu Yaojia sat next to Chen Yuncheng, staring at Zhou Yan's back with red eyes.

The trial process was a bit boring, and the legal aid organization assigned a lawyer to Zhou Yan, but because Zhou Yan had already pleaded guilty, the lawyer only tried to defend him as a minor crime.

On the way, Chen Yuncheng came out and saw Ning Junyan sitting on the bench outside, looking at the sleeping child lying on his lap, with no emotion in his eyes.

"Asleep?" Chen Yuncheng walked to him and asked him in a low voice.

Ning Junyan raised his head and gave a soft "hmm".

Chen Yuncheng was suddenly curious about Ning Junyan's thoughts, and asked him, "Do you think the child is cute?"

"Not cute," Ning Junyan replied without thinking.

Chen Yuncheng stretched out a hand to him, "Do you really not want a child at all?"

Ning Junyan held Chen Yuncheng's hand, put it to his lips and touched it lightly, "No need, you are enough."

The trial lasted until noon and was adjourned for an hour, and the sentencing was not delivered until the afternoon.

Zhou Yan was convicted of intentional homicide and theft, and was sentenced to 15 years in prison for several crimes. He said in court that he would not appeal.

Gu Yaojia got up suddenly at this time, she left the court and went out to pick up the child and wanted to come in, but was stopped by the bailiff at the door, so she called Zhou Yan's name loudly.

Zhou Yan turned around.

Gu Yaojia cried and said, "Look at your son!"

The bailiff quickly took Gu Yaojia out.

Chen Yuncheng looked at Zhou Yan crying bitterly, and couldn't help but his eyes were red. He waited until Zhou Yan was taken away by the bailiff, then got up and left the court.

Outside the court, Gu Yaojia was sitting on a bench, holding the baby and crying all the time, while Ning Junyan stood beside her and calmly handed her a tissue.

Gu Yaojia reached out to take it, and couldn't even say the word "thank you" in full.

Chen Yuncheng came over and stood beside Ning Junyan. Ning Junyan glanced at him and handed over the whole pack of tissues, "Do you need it?"

"No," Chen Yuncheng said, he just stood a little closer to Ning Junyan, the back of his hand lightly touched the back of his hand, until Ning Junyan grabbed it and held it firmly.

They waited until Gu Yaojia recovered a little before leaving, and drove Gu Yaojia home for two hours.

When saying goodbye, only Chen Yuncheng got out of the car, and Ning Junyan sat in the driver's seat without moving.

Holding the sleeping child in her arms, Gu Yaojia said to Chen Yuncheng, "Brother Cheng, thank you."

Chen Yuncheng shook his head, he hesitated, and said, "If it's convenient, would you like to take your child to visit Zhou Yan?"

Gu Yaojia replied: "I don't know, do you think it's good for the child?"

Chen Yuncheng can't answer this question. Zhou Yan is his friend, and from his point of view, he will always think more about Zhou Yan. He knows that Zhou Yan must very much hope that his son can visit him. As for whether it is good for the child, he really wants to not understand.

"It's okay," Chen Yuncheng said, "Think about it, after all, you are the child's mother."

Gu Yaojia nodded, and she asked Chen Yuncheng: "Brother Cheng, are you and Dr. Ning—"

Chen Yuncheng said, "What?"

Gu Yaojia smiled, "It's nothing, thank you for coming to pick me up, do you want to rush back now?"

Chen Yuncheng replied: "Yes, Dr. Ning has to go to work tomorrow."

Gu Yaojia said: "Be careful on the road, and send me a message when you arrive."

"Okay," Chen Yuncheng said, he stepped back and waved to Gu Yaojia, turned around and opened the car door, returned to the passenger seat, and said to Ning Junyan, "Let's go."
