Two flowers bloom, one dead branch

Jiang Yuchu was fiddling with the records on his wristband. He had just run five kilometers with a pace of 540, more than ten seconds faster than last month's training, so he sat down a mouthful of ice coke in satisfaction, and squinted his eyes comfortably .

The first sip of Coca-Cola is worth [-] yuan, honestly don't lie to me.

He stepped into the corridor with a satisfied smile on his face, and when he looked up, he saw a person standing in front of his house.

In the dark corridor, the man was motionless. He looked over after hearing the voice, and with just one glance, Jiang Yuchu involuntarily took a step back.

Gu Changze quickly stood up like a statue, and even the surrounding air froze, as if an invisible black hole was slowly spinning around him, swallowing up all the vitality.

The eyes of the two met in the air, Gu Changze moved his lips, but no sound came out, he wanted to step forward to hold him tightly in his arms, to say sorry to him, to tell him that I knew everything, Want to scold him why he doesn't know how to cherish himself.

But in the end, all the words turned into a smile uglier than crying.

Gu Changze's voice was hoarse: "You're back."

Jiang Yuchu took another small step back, frowning: "You..."

In Gu Changze's eyes, his small movements were like a sharp knife piercing directly into his chest.

Are you so unwilling to come near me?

Gu Changze reluctantly said in a calm tone, "My ring may have been left here."

The finger of his raised right hand was empty. Jiang Yuchu recalled that he didn't see any ring at home, so he asked cautiously, "What kind of ring is it? I'll give it to you someday when I find it."

Gu Changze closed his eyes and smiled lightly, the bitterness in his heart was about to spread out and overwhelm him.

"The one you sent."

Jiang Yuchu gave an indifferent oh and stopped talking.He seemed to be a little hot, and he raised his hand to push back his long hair, revealing his smooth forehead, a drop of sweat slid down the corner of his forehead, crystal clear.

There was silence in the corridor again, and the voice-activated lights went out untimely.

As soon as Jiang Yuchu stomped his feet, the moment the light came on, he felt his body tightened, and someone held him tightly, as if he was going to strangle him to death.

The familiar and faint smell of tobacco drifted into his nostrils. He sniffed it. The good mood after exercising suddenly disappeared. He stretched out his hand and pushed the person away slowly but firmly.

Nausea.

This obvious refusal made Gu Changze let go, lowered his head, eyes filled with deep sadness, he still smiled and said: "The lights are still on at home, I thought you were at home... Ring, ring It’s fine if it’s not, it should be with me.”

Jiang Yuchu's impatience was already written on his face, he just hummed and gestured to please go back, Gu Changze hesitated to speak, and finally just said, "Don't drink something so cold after exercising, it's not good for your stomach .”

Gu Changze stood downstairs for a while, then turned to look in the direction of the fourth floor, and saw Jiang Yuchu looking at him through the corridor window, so he smiled, waved his hands, and turned to leave.

After they left, Jiang Yuchu took out his phone slowly and sent a message.

"Old man, it's a happy cooperation. But I just have one request, please stay away from me, Mr. Your Excellency, or would you consider letting him have a family? It's best not to show up at other people's doors in the middle of the night, it's scary."

He drank the Coke in two sips, raised his hand and threw the empty can into the trash can, then went into the bathroom and took off his shirt.

The mirror reflected a somewhat slender figure. Although the muscles were tight and smooth, there was only a thin layer. There was a scar across the chest and two other scars lying on the abdomen, mocking his past self-control and self-willedness ferociously.

Jiang Yuchu looked at it blankly for a moment, then gently placed his hand on the scar on his chest.

For some mistakes, one time is enough.

The shower was turned on, and the cold water poured down directly, causing goosebumps all over his body.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and held his breath in the cold water.

It's enough to be desperate.

Gu Changze first sent a message to Gu Changan, asking him to find out which hospital Jiang Yuchu was treated in three years ago, and then turned a corner and went straight back to the bureau.

The little police officer who was awakened in the duty room stared round, with a ghostly expression on his face, watching his leader come back into the office in the middle of the night, so he took a cup of coffee in fear to continue his life, intending to force himself to stick to his post, his head was sleepy Cheng Xiaoji pecked at the rice, and finally couldn't survive the physiological needs, and fell asleep with a bang, and became unconscious.

The morning light was twilight outside the window, Gu Changan stared at the blackness under his brother's eyes, and said in shock: "You won't stay up all night, will you?"

Gu Changze rubbed his dry eyes, hummed in a low voice, then unplugged the USB drive, logged out of the intranet, leaned back in the chair, and said a little tiredly: "Have you found the hospital?"

Gu Changan was thinking about who stays up in the middle of the night like you. Just as he was about to say he didn't find it, the phone in his pocket vibrated like a bombardment. He involuntarily moved the phone away.

"Is your brother on the intranet!? Is he next to you! Let him answer the phone!"

Gu Changan handed over the phone with some sympathy, and then picked up Gu Changze's phone to have a look. It was indeed silent, and there were still several missed calls on it, all of which were from Gu Liwen.

He returned the phone silently, and heard his father yelling over there: "It's a violation of discipline or even illegal to break into the intranet without permission, don't you know!?"

It was rare for Gu Liwen to get angry like this. Gu Changze squeezed the space between his brows and asked tentatively, "Dad, which hospital did Jiang Yuchu live in at that time? You must know."

The voice over there obviously paused for a moment, then softened slightly, and there was a hint of earnestness and slow persuasion in the seriousness: "...Let me tell you, Gu Changze, everyone is different, today is not yesterday. A man must be able to afford everything and let it go Down. Intranet matters are not pursued, but down is not an example.”

Gu Changze was silent for a moment, squinting at the golden dust floating leisurely in the air, and said in a desperate tone, "You taught me not to give up until I achieve my goal, and sometimes I can use whatever means. It was the same in the past, it is still the same now, and it will be the same in the future. "

The phone hung up, and the room fell into a brief silence.

The shadow cast by the window frame just covered the upper half of his face, Gu Changan looked into his brother's eyes, and suddenly shivered for no reason.

"By the way," Gu Changze knocked on the table, turned around, his whole face was exposed to the rising sun, his eyes were deep and there was a smile, he asked, "What flowers did you order for your sister-in-law?"

Gu Changan suddenly seemed to have realized something, and jumped up from the chair.

"That...that..."

He licked his lips, and his eyes suddenly began to wander.

Gu Changze lowered his voice and called Gu Changan, which was full of warning.

"Yes, yes, it is a flower, no, it is a golden flower..."

"……what?"

Gu Changan looked at the veins on his brother's forehead, and moved to the door calmly.

"It's the chrysanthemum... Brother brother, listen to me that it has the meaning of being innocent, cheerful, enthusiastic, and returning to happiness abroad. I was wrong—this is the face that can't be beaten——"

The author has something to say: Gu Changze: "I'll let you experience what it means to return to happiness."

Gu Changan: "Brother, I was wrong, don't slap me in the face—"

Gu Changze: "You are capable of sending flowers and chrysanthemums."

Gu Changan: "But it's in Russia..."

Gu Changze: "One more sentence will send you to Russia."

Friendly reminder: The translation of chrysanthemum in Russia comes from Latin, which means "golden flower". You can send chrysanthemums in Russia, but you can't send carnations, because carnations are brought when you go to the cemetery...

Friendly reminder 2.0: It is not recommended for Jiang Yu to take a cold shower after running, don't learn.
