After I slapped my wife, he wandered the streets

Feng Jin has not been officially discharged from the hospital, and he has to go back for an examination.

Bai Qianmian stayed in the hospital for a long time, and then went to the candy store with Pan Xun. He was working very seriously, but it was Pan Xun who was flipping through the design drawings and kept dropping his eyelids.

He fell asleep too late last night, and probably because Bai Qianmian was lying beside him, he had several messy dreams.

"Until the store is renovated, you should stay with me." Seeing his tired appearance, Bai Qianmian walked past him and said considerately, "Anyway, Feng Jin won't come back for a few days."

"Yeah." Pan Xun propped his chin and closed his eyes.

Bai Qianmian climbed to the top to wipe the wall, and asked him while working, "Have you found the construction team?"

"What?" Pan Xun didn't even open his eyes, "You still want to earn extra money from me?"

"When did you find it? I'll come to help you then." Bai Qianmian shook her head, "When are you going to buy bed, quilt, and other daily necessities?"

"It's so troublesome." Pan Xun sighed, he didn't intend to make it so complicated.

"It's troublesome in the first place, but it can be done quickly. Hey, pass me that rag."

"..." Pan Xun sighed again, and had to open his eyes and stand up.

Seeing his boss' reluctance, Bai Qianmian was speechless, "You're so lazy, are you sure you want to open your own shop?" He didn't know how Pan Xun had lived these years, but he should have been taken care of well, because he seemed so useless. The common sense of life has not grown much compared to when I was a child.

"Well, I have to find something to do." Having said that, Pan Xun slumped back on the chair again.

After Bai Qianmian finished wiping the wall, he helped move the wooden board at the door in. Seeing that the man on the chair didn't move, he had to yell, "Give me a hand."

"Hey." Pan Xun wants to get along with people, but it's best to find a coffee shop to sit and chat, instead of being busy like this, the first day was fresh, but now he is a little annoyed.

"Then go buy it tomorrow." Bai Qianmian brought the topic back to just now, "I'm going to work in two days, I don't have so much time."

"Okay." Pan Xun had no objection to this point, and urged: "Let's go, just do it like this, and leave it to the construction team later."

"Then you have to watch it yourself." Bai Qianmian turned on the faucet to wash his hands, Pan Xun walked behind him, with a tone of admiration, "You can do a lot."

He said he was going to build a stove for himself, but he actually started to prepare materials. The lights upstairs were installed by Bai Qianmian, and the faucet was also repaired by a talented person.

"It's normal." Bai Qianmian paused, and said quite seriously, "A man in a normal family has to be able to do these jobs."

"..." Who said that, what will the money be used for? Of course Pan Xun would not say that. He nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go eat."

"Going out to eat again?" Bai Qianmian disapproved.

Pan Xun didn't screw him up this time. Fortunately, no one bought steamed buns anymore. After returning to the shantytown, Bai Qianmian cooked porridge. The two of them used the cabinet as a table, surrounded by a small desk lamp, and Pan Xun looked up at everyone after eating.

Bai Qianmian was calm at first, but then slowly frowned.

After Pan Xun looked at the past again, he couldn't help it, "Why?"

"Ok?"

"Why do you keep..." Bai Qianmian put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Is something wrong with my face?"

"No." Pan Xun was holding a small bowl, feeling very complicated in his heart. Sitting like this and having dinner with the dim light, there was only the sound of chewing food and no one spoke, but the atmosphere was very warm. After many years, he was used to it. There is a person sitting at a big table, and some dishes are far away, and he doesn't even bother to pick them up.

"Hurry up and eat," Bai Qianmian was a little uncomfortable, with a slightly awkward tone, "I can wash the dishes after eating."

"Your hand..." Pan Xun wanted to say early in the morning, but in fact, people should never touch water again.

"It doesn't matter, everyone here is like this." Bai Qianmian didn't care about this kind of problem, on the contrary, Pan Xun's eyes that always fell on him made him feel even more uncomfortable.

"Oh." Don't be too presumptuous, Pan Xun honestly finished his porridge, Bai Qianmian took the bowls and chopsticks to the door to wash, and he helped others hold the lamp behind.

When the two returned to the tent and lay down, Pan Xun turned to find Bai Qianmian lying on the bed reading a book.

"What are you looking at?"

"comic book."

"Can you see clearly in this dimness?"

"It's just some paintings," Bai Qianmian said casually, "and I've seen it many times, and I know its ending."

"Where did the book come from?" Pan Xun didn't care about this kind of question, he just wanted to know more about Bai Qianmian's current life by finding a topic.

"I picked it up in the trash." Bai Qianmian said that although he had read it many times, he still read it seriously now. "There are also book sellers in the shanty towns. After you pick it up and read it, sell it and then buy it."

Apart from reading books, there are no other recreational activities here at night. Although Moka City is not prosperous at all, the gap between the inner and outer cities is really too big.

Residents in the main city should still be watching TV, some entertainment clubs have just opened, and the hotels are bustling with activity.

"What kind of story is it?" Pan Xun asked after a moment of silence.

Bai Qianmian said "Ah" and introduced: "Adventure story, the protagonist had a good friend when he was a child. One day they got separated while playing in the forest. Everyone thought that his friend had been captured and eaten by wild beasts. , only the protagonist didn’t believe it, and when he grew up, he took a sharp long sword and a loyal big yellow dog and embarked on a journey to find friends.”

"There are quite a lot of stories like this," very clichéd, but Pan Xun still asked, "What's the ending?"

"The ending..." Bai Qianmian showed off, "Guess."

"I guess..." Pan Xun drew his tone and suddenly asked, "It's you, will you go look for it?"

"Huh?" Bai Qianmian stopped reading and turned to look at Pan Xun.

Pan Xun said calmly, "Will you go find that friend?"

"What about you?" Bai Qianmian didn't answer right away.

Pan Xun clasped his hands in front of his chest and said softly, "I won't."

"Why..." Bai Qianmian's voice became low and confused.

"If he's still alive, why didn't he come back?" Pan Xun said cruelly, "It's pointless for you to look for someone who doesn't want to come back."

"How do you know he doesn't want to come back?" Bai Qianmian retorted loudly, "Maybe he encountered some difficulties."

Pan Xun laughed, and did not refute Bai Qianmian's naive idea, he asked again: "What's the ending of the story?"

"You often lied to me when you were young." Bai Qianmian gave an irrelevant answer.

Pan Xun was stunned for a moment, the unexpected person took the initiative to bring up the past, but soon he thought of something, and said with a wry smile: "You still remember."

"Remember, I didn't go to school at that time, and you would teach me how to read after school."

"Yeah, I always ask you to beg me. I will teach you a few new words only when you satisfy me, but you always learn very quickly." Pan Xun said in a nostalgic tone.

"It's not just like that," Bai Qianmian said dissatisfied, "Back then you read story books to me, and you always changed the ending randomly."

"..." Pan Xun coughed, "When did you find out?"

"I learned more characters later on." Bai Qianmian pulled the quilt and said in a low voice, "Actually, I bought every storybook you read to me later."

"Uh." Pan Xun felt embarrassed to be settled by Qiuhou.

"It's a pity that I lost those books at home." After wandering around, Bai Qianmian naturally couldn't take them with me, looking at the top of her head and said, "After reading those books, I realized that the ending of every story is different from what you told me. .”

"Cough~" Pan Xun tried to quibble, "Because I don't think those original authors wrote well."

"But why do you change every story into a tragedy?" Bai Qianmian still feels worried even when recalling it now, "You read that Xue Nu died, but I actually cried secretly for several days."

After feeling guilty, Pan Xun felt like laughing again. At that time, Bai Qianmian was really stubborn, "Actually, I saw you secretly hiding and crying."

"..." Bai Qianmian was stunned for a moment, and after taking a deep breath, he said helplessly, "You are really wicked."

"Back then," Pan Xun curled his mouth, the smile slowly disappeared from his face, and he said in a hoarse voice, "The time before I left..."

"Pan Xun!" Bai Qianmian sat up suddenly.

The two were talking, even though Bai Qianmian was complaining and accusing him, Pan Xun felt warm in his heart, the time spent together in childhood was happy after all, until he wanted to take the opportunity to say the next thing, Bai Qianmian suddenly reacted loudly and yelled.

Pan Xun was stunned, and also sat up from the bed.

Bai Qianmian was like someone who woke up from a nightmare, standing there motionless.

Pan Xun didn't even dare to breathe hard at this moment, he sensed that something was wrong with Bai Qianmian.

The person lowered his head, and the sound of breathing became extremely heavy.

"Go to sleep!" After a long time, in the strange atmosphere, Bai Qianmian threw down two words and lay down and turned over.

Pan Xun stared at the silhouette of his back, frowning tightly.

"I......"

"Sleep!" With a low growl, Bai Qianmian buried her head completely under the quilt.

"..." Pan Xun sat alone for half an hour, until Bai Qianmian's breathing returned to normal, and the other party slowly seemed to fall asleep.

Because of what happened last night, when they woke up the next morning, the atmosphere between the two was still not so normal.

Bai Qianmian went out for a while, and when she came back, she told Pan Xun that he had found a temporary job in the shantytown, and Pan Xun happened to be going out too, so she said that she would first go to the construction team to talk about the shop decoration, and the two acted separately.

Pan Xun drove back to the main city alone. Of course, he didn't need to look for the construction team. He went back to the hotel to take a shower, and all his subordinates waited in the corridor again.

The things that can be explained on the phone are limited, and the delivery of documents is time-consuming. Seeing that there are more and more affairs piling up at home, Violet hesitates and asks about the return date.

Pan Xun was spinning the pen in his hand. Before he came, he had planned that this matter would be settled within two or three months at the latest, but now it seems very tricky.

"Feng Yu's treatment fee at the hospital," he ordered after thinking for a while, "Go and pay part of it first."

Bai Qianmian mentioned last time that he hasn't saved enough money for the next issue, because he and Feng Jin have been living in the hospital these days, and Bai Qianmian went out to find work today, partly because he doesn't want to face himself, and the other part is probably true No money.

"Yes." Violet backed away.

Pan Xun stared at the words on the document, and his efficiency was not very high all day. In the evening, he asked someone to buy two fast food to take back to the shanty town.

Bai Qianmian has already returned, and put an apple on the cabinet.

Pan Xun took out the food and handed it to him quite naturally, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"Not yet," Bai Qianmian lowered her head, her voice was vague, "I'm waiting for you."

"Well, heat it up." Pan Xun sat down on the small stool, watching Bai Qianmian pour out the food and put it on the brazier.

"There are apples on the cabinet." The man said softly.

"Huh?" Pan Xun was stunned.

"It's been washed." Bai Qianmian was still cooking, without looking at him, "Go ahead and eat."

"Where did it come from?" Pan Xun didn't refuse. After living together for a few days, he also knew where some things were placed. He found a dagger from the side and cut the apple in half. He took one half and ate it.

Bai Qianmian packed the hot food and said casually, "The boss gave it to me today."

"Yeah." Pan Xun finished eating half an apple, and sat down to eat with Bai Qianmian. The room between the two seemed to be back to normal. After eating, Bai Qianmian took the initiative to say, "I'll go shopping with you tomorrow."

"Aren't you looking for work?"

"No," the man said in a normal tone, "Your matters are more important."

Pan Xun must have watched the meeting, and was a little confused about what Bai Qianmian was thinking. He clearly got along well with him, but he refused to mention the separation at the beginning anyway.It's fine if it's just an ordinary refusal, but Bai Qianmian's reaction after trying to talk about it several times was so intense that he didn't dare to try again easily.

"Okay." Pan Xun put down his chopsticks.

Bai Qianmian got up and bent over to tidy up, the two of them spoke at the same time in the next second.

"you......"

"I......"

"You speak first." After speaking in unison again, Pan Xun smiled.

Bai Qianmian also laughed, took a breath and said, "Go ahead."

Pan Xun hesitated for a while. He originally wanted to test Bai Qianmian's attitude towards Feng Yu's treatment, but he decided to let people speak first.

"You said."

"I..." Bai Qianmian looked up at him, then quickly lowered her head to clean up the two bowls, struggling and said: "Are you angry with me?"

"what?"

"Last night..." Bai Qianmian squeezed her chopsticks tightly, forced out another word, "I..."

"I don't." Pan Xun held the man's wrist. He dared not touch Bai Qianmian's scarred palm until today. It must be more complicated and difficult to understand than cowardice. Appearing must be full of doubts and anxiety, he sighed, "It's my problem."
