i love you after all

inside the carriage.

Finally in the warmth, the cat called "meow" and "meow" contentedly, leaning against Ran Chuqiu and licking its paws while meowing.

Ran Chuqiu leaned against Dan Jin's side, holding a cup of freshly made cappuccino in his hand, carefully blowing the hot air on it.Dan Jin lowered her head and played with the Nine Links that came with her car. Her cup of hot coffee was casually placed in the door slot, as if it had been neglected for a long time.

Luo Shen was thanking all the friends who had troubled him just now because he was looking for Chu Qiu. He secretly looked at Dan Jin while typing, and seemed to want to say something, but he never said it.

Jiang Yanran's hands were tightly on the steering wheel, her knuckles clearly protruding.With some tears in her eyes, she glanced at Danjin in the rearview mirror of the car, and asked in a muffled voice, "You almost died, do you know that?"

Dan Jin didn't look up, but just blinked, his voice a little hoarse: "Thank you, Captain Jiang, for your concern."

With tears still in her eyes, Jiang Yanran laughed, "Is this really the only thing you say to me forever? Thank you, Team Jiang, I'm sorry, Team Jiang, hello, Team Jiang, goodbye, Team Jiang, you still Even though Xiong Xue'er is called 'Xue'er', why do you always only call me a respectful title? It's been two years, and you and I are so strange, so strange?!"

Dan Jin's fingers rested on the fourth ring of the Nine Links, and the light in her eyes flickered.

"...I'm sorry, Yanran."

Jiang Yanran's breathing became stagnant, her mind was suddenly disturbed, and her gaze flickered back and forth on the front window of the car.Dan Jin's words blocked all her unspoken words back into her mouth, and she couldn't say anything.

Chu Qiu just kept rolling his eyes between them, and when their conversation was over, he gently pulled Dan Jin's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Are you angry?"

Dan Jin put down Jiu Lianhuan, picked up the coffee in the door slot, twisted the straw and stirred, and said in a calm tone, "I'm not angry."

"Oh..." Chu Qiu bit the straw, took a moment, and repeated the question not long ago, "Why didn't you scold me and still hug me?"

Danjin had a bit of a headache. She didn't expect Ran Chuqiu to be so stubborn. She didn't answer her just now, but now she started asking again. "You just want to know why?"

"Yeah!" Chu Qiu nodded violently, then flinched again, "Because... I sneaked out without telling you. I did something wrong. If I did something wrong, I should be scolded."

"I've never scolded anyone, so I won't scold you." Dan Jin looked down at the shaking surface of the coffee, "and hugging children is just a habit of most adults. It's like after a monotonous dinner, Just like the monotonous snack dish you can guess, let it take its course."

"Oh..." Chu Qiu was dejected again, she didn't seem to get the answer she wanted.

After a while, she asked again with bright eyes: "Don't you want to know why I ran out?"

Danjin took a sip of coffee, and answered the question: "Will you sneak out like this in the future?"

Chu Qiu thought for a while, then shook his head: "No way."

"Ah."

"...You still don't want to know why I ran..."

"I don't want to know." Dan Jin interrupted her.

"why?"

"It's enough that I know you won't sneak away again."

Chu Qiu thought of the hard-to-find book in her schoolbag, and immediately frowned aggrievedly. She could feel the indifference hidden under Dan Jin's peaceful surface, which made her extremely uncomfortable, and couldn't help but ask bluntly: "Are you still here?" Angry with me, aren't you?"

Danjin put the coffee back in the door slot and replied softly: "I'm not angry. But if you ask this question again, I will really be angry."

Chu Qiu opened her mouth, no matter how much she said, she didn't dare to spit it out again, she could only bite the straw tightly, tears rolled in her eyes.As long as Dan Jin said such words, she would be like a cat strangled by the back of the neck, unable to move at all.

No more words along the way.

After arriving at the villa, several people got out of the car.Beside the rose garden, Luo Shen quietly grabbed Dan Jin, and Jiang Yanran led Chu Qiu away with a wink.

Xiao Tiangou was hugged by Chu Qiu, and Chu Qiu was hugged by Jiang Yanran, they all passed Jiang Yanran's shoulders and stared at Danjin intently.

Before the gate was closed, Chu Qiu saw the tall and handsome Luo Shen leaning forward in front of the rose bushes amidst the heavy snow, and kissed Dan Jin's forehead.

Danjin lowered her eyes, and the shadow of her eyelashes hit her lower eyelid.She raised her chin slightly, her neck was white and long, and the profile of her side face was delicate and soft, like a statue being worshiped piously.Perfect, cold, arrogant, strange.

Perfect, cold, arrogant, strange.

It seems to be a divine object beyond the reach of ordinary people.

With the sound of the door closing, Ran Chuqiu suddenly woke up.

She suddenly realized that Danjin is not just the gentle Danjin who can cook carefully and tell stories patiently.She will be angry, just like she is really angry about her leaving today, but when she is angry, she will pretend to be calm and calm.This is much scarier than her direct anger and scolding herself.

Because, if she had acted better, no one would have noticed that she was angry.

So what to do with the air that is stuffed in the stomach, stuffed in the chest cavity, and floating in the breath?Those grievances, those angers, what should she do to digest them slowly?

The little Chu Qiu still couldn't understand these questions.She sat by the bed and thought for a long time, and suddenly she was afraid of growing up. For some reason, she felt that Danjin had a hard life.She doesn't want to live as hard as she does.But she is looking forward to growing up, maybe only when she grows up, Dan Jin will tell her about her difficulties, in this way, she can share half of the hard work for Dan Jin.

She didn't know why she wanted to share Danjin's pain.

Later, she attributed it to the word "repaying kindness".

Not long after, Dan Jin came back.Her eyes were full of tiredness, she didn't talk to Chu Qiu, she just buried two new Ersu Old Juju in the incense burner, and then went straight to the toilet.

After closing the door, he hesitated and locked it.

Dan Jin let out a long breath, her eyes turned red, she took two quick steps to the cabinet under the sink, squatted down and rummaged for a while, and found a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.But as soon as she picked it up, she couldn't help but glanced outside the door, remained silent for a while, and then put it back.

There is early autumn, can not smoke.

She doesn't usually have the habit of smoking, but she uses this thing as a temporary relief when she is extremely tired or irritable.When you don’t usually smoke, let it go. Once you want to smoke, your whole body will feel itchy and burn like crawling insects. If you don’t suppress it, you won’t even be able to sleep tonight.

Dan Jin sighed, and after a little hesitation, took out a box of Nicotine patches from the bottom of the drawer.

She closed her eyes hard, but chose to take two pieces out and stick them on the inside of her forearm.

Outside.

Xiaotiangou was lying on a rug, wolfing down a freshly opened Miaoxian package.

Chu Qiu sat next to it, her little eyebrows frowned tightly.She originally planned to return the book to Danjin when she came back, but it was obvious that Danjin's demeanor was not good, and she was a little scared.After all, I was the instigator, and today I ran over to look for it without authorization, which caused so much trouble for them. If Danjin knew that she threw it away in the first place, would she be even more angry?

Not long after, Dan Jin came out of the toilet.She had obviously finished washing, and the broken hair on her forehead still showed traces of being soaked in warm water. She walked to the bed, rummaged in the drawer for a while, took out a plastic bag of medicine, and beckoned Chu Qiu to come over.

Chu Qiu immediately crawled to Dan Jin's side, but she didn't dare to speak, and bit her lower lip tightly.

"Change the dressing." After Dan Jin finished speaking briefly, Chu Qiu immediately sat on the bed, took off her top, and gave Dan Jin her back.Dan Jin carefully removed the medicinal cloth that had been soaked in snow water on her body, and gently brushed the wound with her fingertips to check the suppuration there.

"I saw... your mobile phone was crushed by a car." Chu Qiu said timidly, "I, I will pay you back when I grow up."

Seeing that the wound has not deteriorated, Danjin felt relieved, and replied casually, "I lost it myself, so you don't need to pay for it."

Chu Qiu nodded his chin and whispered, "I'm sorry, if I don't have today..."

"It doesn't matter. You are a child. No child is born within the radius. It is normal to make mistakes."

"So... have you forgiven me?"

"I didn't blame you," Danjin carefully applied the new ointment, her mood was much calmer than before, and her tone gradually softened, "It's just that I was a little too anxious today. You seem to be a little nervous all the time, am I out of control?" Such a good expression, did it scare you?"

"No, no." Chu Qiu hurriedly denied, she turned her head slightly, and saw half of Dan Jin's forearm, half wrapped in the sleeves of her pajamas, revealing two pieces that looked like plasters.She wanted to ask subconsciously, but quickly covered her mouth again.

Dan Jin noticed Chu Qiu's gaze, and with a flick of her hands, she put down all her sleeves to cover the Nicotine patch.She deliberately opened the topic: "It's also my fault. I was supposed to stay with you at home, but I went out suddenly and didn't leave you a contact information."

"I don't blame you! It's... I ran around by myself."

"In any case, in order to avoid this kind of thing from happening again, let's take precautions." Dan Jin put on the gauze, turned around and got her laptop from the bedside table, sat next to Chu Qiu, and opened the online shopping page for her to see, " Come, pick a phone you like."

"Mobile phone?" Chu Qiu's eyes lit up, as if a broken star had fallen into it, "Mom said, I'm too young to have a mobile phone."

"There is no should or should, only need or not. You need a mobile phone now, and I need it too, so why don't we buy it together." Danjin sat back a little, leaned on the pillow, and hugged Chuqiu to watch together, "Look , there are just a few coupons, and there are full discounts, let’s buy together to save money.”

"But, isn't that good?" Chu Qiu said, but his body consciously leaned over, and immediately answered, "Can I use the same one as you?"

"can."

"But my mother said that children don't need to use such good things. Children are different from adults, and there are many functions that they can't use."

"It's okay, as long as you like it." Dan Jin looked down at the computer.Not to mention that Ran Chuqiu's expenses can be reported to the company, even if she doesn't report it, she can still afford two thousand yuan mobile phones.

Chu Qiu looked at it for a while, pointed to a full-screen mobile phone with cherry blossom pink, and asked cautiously: "Is this okay?"

"Okay." Danjin chose the pink one and put it in the shopping cart, and then chose a black one.

Seeing you in early autumn, I immediately asked, "Don't you use pink?"

"I don't like pink." Dan Jin replied softly.

"Then I want a black one too," Chu Qiu said anxiously, "I want, I want to be like you."

Dan Jin's fingers paused on the mouse, she returned to the shopping cart, deleted the black mobile phone in the shopping cart, and adjusted the quantity of cherry blossom powder to "2".

Chu Qiu laughed immediately, but after a short laugh, she immediately realized the problem and said quickly, "Don't you like pink?"

"Did I tell you?" She asked with a smile.

"Yes," Chu Qiu nodded earnestly, "You just said that."

"Oh..." She frowned nonchalantly, "I don't remember."

Chu Qiu frowned suspiciously, and couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that just now was really his hallucination?

Dan Jin neatly placed the order and paid, then turned off the computer and put it back in the nightstand.She glanced at the time, it was eleven o'clock. "It's too late, let's go wash up quickly."

Chu Qiu sensiblely jumped out of bed, ran to the toilet, tiptoed to get the electric toothbrush and toothpaste on the shelf, and brushed his teeth obediently and carefully.With a mouth full of foam, feeling the vibration of the toothbrush in her mouth, she glanced back.

As expected, Dan Jin followed, and she was standing at the door of the toilet, leaning against the door frame, with her arms crossed in front of her chest, her long black curly hair hanging down between her white wrists.She looked at her tenderly, making people feel very stable.
