Yama

This night Yan Cheng slept with the person he hadn't shared with him for a long time, but he didn't feel very comforted. He woke up several times during the night, each time because of some nightmare, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Ji Qiao was still by his side. , Yan Cheng would feel relieved again, he was so dazed for a long time, and didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night.After this sleep, he was pretty dead asleep, and when he woke up again, the sky was bright, Yan Cheng instinctively reached out to touch the person around him, but the tentacles were cold, Yan Cheng was startled, and immediately sat up.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and the nurse and the doctor came in.

Yan Cheng wanted to ask about Ji Qiao's whereabouts, but the doctor had already started a final physical examination for him, during which time Liao Yuandong and Wang Xitang also came to help clean up Yan Cheng's things.

Yan Cheng sat on the bed, his movements were very cooperative, but his expression seemed a little anxious. His eyes were fixed on the mobile phone on the bedside table, but his mobile phone was very quiet from the beginning to the end.

At first, Yan Cheng wondered if Ji Qiao would go buy him breakfast, or talk to the doctor about his recovery status, but after waiting and going, no one was seen, Yan Cheng thought again, he probably went home first or went to It's school, come pick me up when I'm about to leave.But after working for a long time, Ji Qiao still didn't show up, and Yan Cheng comforted himself that Ji Qiao should wait for him at home. It's okay if he doesn't come to pick him up. Anyway, he can run and dance, so he can go back to rest for two days. good.

After being sent off by a group of doctors and nurses, Yan Cheng, Liao, and Wang were led out of the hospital all the way, and met their grandmother who came to pick them up in the parking lot.

Grandma said, "Yan Cheng, you come back with me, Ah Gui made soup for you at home."

Yan Cheng smiled and shook his head, he didn't want to speak too decisively and hurt grandma's heart, but at this moment, all he wanted was to find Ji Qiao.

Yan Cheng said, "Grandma, Ji Qiao is waiting for me."

Grandma heard his words and endured so as not to show too explosive emotions, but her eyes were still slightly red, "Yan Cheng, are you still unable to figure it out?"

Yan Cheng's smile was a bit forced, but also a bit weird, "Ji Qiao and I have already made up our minds, you know that."

Grandma stared at him blankly, with a look in her eyes that confused Yan Cheng, like helplessness, pity, and deep distress.

"I'll wait for you at home..." Grandma opened her mouth, and finally left behind only this sentence, opened the car door and left first.

Looking at the dust and smoke of grandma going away, Yan Cheng hurriedly got into the car, and said to Liao Yuandong, "Let's go, let's hurry up too."

Wang Xitang and Liao Yuandong looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of unbearable taste in each other's eyes.

On the way back to the kennel, Yan Cheng kept flipping through his phone. He felt warm when he thought about the interaction with Ji Qiao last night, but when he thought of the other party leaving without saying goodbye this morning, he felt an indescribable uneasiness. Slowly shrouded down.

Yan Cheng is trying his best to build up his mind so that he doesn't think about it like a woman. Although everything seems to be in trouble at the moment, he still firmly believes that as long as the two of them don't let go of their marriage, there will always be a day when they will go out.

As long as they don't give up.

When getting out of the car, he got up in a hurry, Yan Cheng's eyes blurred, and his footsteps wobbled slightly, but fortunately Liao Yuandong quickly supported him, and said in a displeased voice, "It's obviously not clear..."

Yan Cheng pushed his hand away, "It's not that particular, the sun is a bit dazzling today."

Liao Yuandong saw that he had just stabilized and ran upstairs, and he couldn't help but followed behind with Wang Xitang.

Yan Cheng couldn't wait to open the door. He hadn't come back for more than ten days. He missed this place even more than the Tan Zhai and Yan Zhai where he had lived for many years. The inside of the room was still as clean and simple as when he left, and the windows were clean and spotless. , showing that Ji Qiao spends every day cleaning, cleaning the common residence of the two of them.

Yan Cheng dropped his things and walked around the room, but he didn't find Ji Qiao's shadow.

"Heh, I'm really going to class." He came out and greeted Wang Xitang and Liao Yuandong to sit down, "If you want to drink water, pour it yourself, there should be water."

Wang Xitang and Liao Yuandong didn't sit down, they just watched Yan Cheng walking back and forth in the room by himself. He had a smile on his face, but every time he turned around, the smile shifted a bit, until the final expression It's all a little distorted.

Wang Xitang couldn't help calling him, "Yan Wang..."

Yan Cheng ignored him.

Wang Xitang paused and called again, "Yan Wang."

Yan Cheng turned his head and said nervously, "Why are there so many things missing? Could it be that they were stolen?"

Wang Xitang was speechless.

Liao Yuandong pulled him over and walked up by himself, "Have you called Ji Qiao yet?"

Yan Cheng shook his head, rubbing his hands along the hem of his trousers, "He must be in class."

"Does he have class today?"

"He..." Yan Cheng was stunned, "He still has other work to do."

"What is he doing?" Liao Yuandong looked at him, "Today is Saturday."

Yan Cheng wiped his face, "Work-study program, or painting, didn't you introduce him to a job? Ji Qiao is very busy, and the publishing house also thinks that he paints well."

Liao Yuandong frowned completely, he stretched out his hand to grab Yan Cheng who was moving around, and said, "Give him a call."

Yan Cheng didn't move.

Liao Yuandong raised his voice and repeated, "Hit one!"

Yan Cheng hesitated for a while, then slowly took out the phone in his pocket, finally unlocked it, and his fingers trembled faintly when dialing the number.

Wang Xitang couldn't help but look away.

Yan Cheng looked at the signal arrow typed out on the screen, and put the phone to his ear for a moment.

After a while, he took it down and said, "It's a busy tone. Ji Qiao must be busy." Liao Yuandong didn't speak, neither did Yan Cheng. In the silence of the room, there was only the faint beep of the mobile phone that kept replaying automatically. Beep, over and over again, persistently.After a long time, the replay finally stopped and the phone returned to a black screen.

Just as Yan Cheng was about to take it back, a message came in at this moment.

Yan Cheng stared at the sender's name without moving, but Liao Yuandong picked up the phone before him. Yan Cheng wanted to snatch it, but Liao Yuandong avoided it, opened it to look, and handed it back to Yan Cheng.

However, Yan Cheng suddenly didn't dare to take it.

Liao Yuandong insisted on raising his hand, his eyes were deep, until Yan Cheng took it.

Yan Cheng took a deep breath, opened the message, and read it.

(I moved out of the rented room, the key is under the coffee table, don’t look for me, don’t see me again, let’s break up. ——Ji Qiao)

There is no reason, no cause and effect, simply resolute, leaving no way out, really Ji Qiao's style.

Yan Cheng didn't respond, even his expression didn't change. He stared at the message for a while, closed his phone, squatted down and found the key from under the coffee table, put it in his pocket and walked outside.

Liao Yuandong and Wang Xitang hurriedly chased after him, "Where are you going?"

Yan Cheng acted as if he had never heard of it, and pushed them away to open the door.

Wang Xitang stood in front of him, "Yan Wang, sober up, this is Ji Qiao's choice, you know his temper."

Yan Cheng's expression was indifferent, and the restless and uneasy state just now seemed to fade away from him like a tide, Yan Chengge opened Wang Xitang's hand, and said in a cold tone, "I know better than you what kind of temper he is... So I don't believe it!"

Wang Xitang wanted to say that the news has been sent to your mobile phone, how can you believe it, but he was a bit speechless, while Liao Yuandong on the other side shook his head at him.

He knew Yan Cheng better than Wang Xitang, so he couldn't stop him at this time.

"Go ahead and ask yourself." Liao Yuandong pulled Wang Xitang over and said to Yan Cheng.

As soon as Wang Xitang let go, Yan Cheng walked out with big strides, watching his leaving back, both of them felt heavy like a stone.

Yan Cheng hailed a taxi, thinking about where Ji Qiao would go while walking, finally, he decided to go to Chi's house first, and then go to school.

But he knocked on the door of Chi's house for more than an hour and there was still no response. Yan Cheng asked for Jiang Zhen's phone number before, but now he called it immediately, and the other end rang twice before answering.

Yan Cheng asked where Jiang Zhen was, Jiang Zhen had a bad tone, and after a while he said that he was making up lessons, Yan Cheng asked her if she saw Ji Qiao, Jiang Zhen was puzzled, "Isn't Ji Qiao with you?" Yan Cheng hung up immediately Telephone.

Then he went to school again, today was the weekend, and the campus was empty, Yan Cheng wandered around there like a headless chicken several times before realizing that Ji Qiao's work-study program was no longer available.

He called everyone who had friendship with Ji Qiao, including Sun Xiaojun, including Cui Chong. Everyone was quite surprised by his call, and immediately denied it. When the call came to Jing Yao, Jing Yao sighed. Taking a deep breath, as if she had expected such a day, she said to Yan Cheng, "So what if you find him, he doesn't want to be with you anymore."

Yan Cheng silently looked ahead, "Ji Qiao promised me." He had not recovered from his illness, so his voice was a little low, but his tone was firm.

Jing Yao wanted to laugh, but she still felt sad, "If you really love him, then let him go, and yourself too, it's really boring to waste like this."

Yan Cheng didn't speak for a long time, and only after a while did he softly reply, "If I can do it, do you think I don't want to?"

Jing Yao was stunned at the other end, Yan Cheng had already cut off the call.

He finally went back to the puppy kennel, he was afraid that if Ji Qiao could not come back and wait for him to leave again, the small home looked no different from usual, there were kitchen utensils on the stove, and the clothes in the bedroom were as well. Folded neatly, if you ignore the laptop that is often placed on the table, as well as a few books and some sketches, it seems that the person is still here.

Yan Cheng sat paralyzed on the sofa, feeling very dizzy, but his spirit was extraordinarily tense. The sky was slowly getting dark, and gradually enveloped the room completely. Only a pair of bright eyes were wide open in the darkness, unable to blink. Blinking to a point in the void.

Yan Cheng sat like this until midnight, only to realize that he hadn't eaten anything. He turned on a small light, went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. It was filled with all kinds of food, including Yan Cheng's favorite pork ribs in tomato sauce, pan-fried salmon, There are also golden shrimp rolls, some are leftovers from yesterday, and they are really packaged back, some are freshly made, and some are for preservation, and they are not cooked through, so they can be eaten in the microwave or returned to the pot.

Yan Cheng took them out one by one, heated them up and filled the table. He took a piece of winter bamboo shoots with his chopsticks and put them in his mouth, chewing carefully. It was obviously yesterday's leftovers, but the taste was completely different. Yan Cheng recalled what he was doing at this time yesterday, why did the world suddenly fall apart now?He forced himself to finish all those dishes. After eating for a long time, he lost consciousness in his stomach and just swallowed habitually, insisting inexplicably, as if as long as he finished eating, let Ji Qiao see He will be happy, he will be satisfied, and then... he will come back.

Before dawn, Yan Cheng finally finished eating. He put down his chopsticks, looked at the empty plates on the table, got up and washed them one by one. He washed them very carefully. What kind of mood is it, is it happy or bored, or confused about all this.

Yan Cheng carefully put all the dishes into the cupboard and arranged them neatly one by one, then dried his hands and came out to see the sky outside, put on his coat, and went out again.
