Because of this incident, Qin Lin had a broken left wrist and asked for a week's leave. A steel plate was put on his wrist, and he also wore a splint for a long time. He had to undergo surgery every two years to remove the steel plate, which was very troublesome.

He hadn't seen the mermaid since he woke up in the hospital. Of course, there were the latest news about it on the Internet, and it was still working, but it didn't visit Qin Lin once when he was hospitalized, and he didn't wait for it to go home after he was discharged from the hospital.

Qin Lin originally planned that if the mermaid came to apologize, he would not let him go down the steps easily. He would first give him some face to let him know that he had made a big mistake, and then teach him not to do it again in the future. People are gone.But the mermaid didn't come after waiting, and Qin Lin lost his temper. He thought it would be fine if he came, and there was nothing he couldn't reconcile.

On the day of discharge from the hospital, Qin Lin held his mobile phone and thought for a long time, and edited a WeChat message for the mermaid: "I am discharged from the hospital today, will you come to pick me up?" After thinking about it, he changed it to: "I am discharged from the hospital today, won't you come to pick me up? After reading it for a while, I felt that it was still inappropriate, so I simply deleted the second half of the sentence: "I will be discharged from the hospital today."

Then he began to wait for a reply.He had already voluntarily handed over the steps, but mermaids should quickly roll over, but there was still no news from the mermaids until they left the hospital and returned to their families.

Qin Lin couldn't figure it out. Could it be that the one who was beaten didn't care about it, but the one who beat him wanted to take Joe?Is there any reason?

After he was discharged from the hospital, the doctor originally asked him to recuperate at home for another week, but the leader kept calling and insinuating whether he could go back to work after he recovered, so he returned to the company to resume work.

The little girl sitting next to me likes mermaids as always, and the computer screen saver is replaced by a new magazine cover made by mermaids—a black and white photo, with a half-clothed coat hanging on her shoulders, her lips are slightly parted, and her eyes are arrogantly looking at the camera .The girl sitting next to her said "it's a blatant temptation", but he didn't agree.

For him, its seductive expression is actually more lazy and friendly. For example, in the summer when they cut watermelon together in the living room, the mermaid ate until his cheeks were dripping with juice. He tilted his head to look at him and smiled, sticking out his tongue to lick the juice from the corner of his mouth into his mouth.

For another example, when playing games, you suddenly open your flat legs, and when you lie on the sofa, you don’t care to show half of your lower back. They all seem to be unguarded and loose invitations.

For example, pestering him to help drip eye drops, blinking to open the watery light flowing in the different pupils.When you have a cold, you breathe with your mouth open, and your lips and nose are red and swollen, and you feel vulnerable with high fever.

All these things in life are more alluring to him than this photo. In fact, there is always an inexplicable sense of distance in him in the photo. Even if it is tempting, it is not him who is tempting.

During these times, he always thinks of these from time to time, and of course he thinks more of his neglect of the mermaid.

For example, he has been used to living alone for many years. He is used to being alone. He doesn’t like living things walking around. When he is upset, he often enters the room without saying a word and locks the door. People will lock the door when they watch some movies and browse the forum for a while, shutting the mermaid out mercilessly.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this in the past, this was his home, he needed personal space, he locked himself, and didn't restrict the mermaid's freedom.

But thinking about it now, many times when he came home from work all day, the mermaid who was in a daze in the living room happily stood up and followed him all the way to the door of the room, but was locked outside the door, stood still for a while and then silently returned to the previous position to continue. In a daze, it seems...really pitiful.

If you think about it this way, it's really unlucky for the mermaid to be bought by someone like him.

He is used to checking the news of the mermaid every day to see what it is doing, whether it is healthy, and how it feels. Sometimes it feels a little uncomfortable if there is no news for a few days, but fortunately, he is busy with work, so he can't help thinking about it.

One day he came across a negative piece of news, a paparazzi broke the news, probably saying that the reason why the mermaid was so popular was because he was taken care of by a high-level executive. He said that he had a nose and eyes, and he asked the little girl next to him if she saw it. Calm down: "How fresh, in the entertainment circle, besides the background coffee, is it the patronage coffee? Think about it, if you were the sponsor, you wouldn't ask for such a beautiful woman?"

After pondering for a while, Qin Lin thought it made sense. Although he didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, he thought that the place where rich people and handsome men and beautiful women gather should be a place where Dunlun's affairs are indispensable, so he was a little anxious at the moment.

It happened to be Wednesday, and he worked overtime to finish the work of the next two days and asked for leave from the leader to catch the 4 am flight to the city where the mermaid was located.

It was already past 7 o'clock in the morning when he arrived at the destination. He contacted the assistant of the mermaid. The assistant girl told him the address of the hotel very straightforwardly. After arriving at the hotel, the assistant girl came out to pick him up warmly and thoughtfully. The left hand holding the splint was surprised and concerned for a while, he hesitated to speak several times on the way to take him to the mermaid room, and finally said nothing.

When he knocked on the door of the hotel, the assistant girl walked away tactfully, and the mermaid opened the door about half a minute later. She looked like she had just taken a shower, she was wearing a loose black silk robe, and her wet abdominal muscles and straight legs were exposed. As he spoke, his black hair was still dripping on his forehead.

The mermaid saw him stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything, turned around and entered the room.Qin Lin was also stunned for a moment, he thought the assistant girl had told it in advance that he was coming, but it seemed that she didn't say anything.

He closed the door and followed in. The mermaid curled up her legs and sat on the recliner in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and took a puff of the half-burned cigarette on the ashtray on the round table next to it.

"How did you learn to smoke?"

The mermaid didn't answer, but just silently watched the cars coming and going in the early morning outside the window, breathing smoke, with one bare leg resting on the handle of the chair, which was very eye-catching.

"Smoking less, it's not good for your health."

Still ignoring him, Qin Lin thought he was bored, sighed, turned in front of it, dragged a low stool and sat down: "Why haven't you come home, are you still angry?"

"Does it matter if I go back or not?"

"Of course it's important, you are my family."

"Family? Do you think I'm human?"

Qin Linben still wanted to explain a few words, but the mermaid tended to ignore the answers, and he was too lazy to speak. He didn't understand how the mermaid became like this. Although the mermaid had a bad personality before, it was not like this difficult to communicate.

He decided to get straight to the point: "Otherwise, you should stop being a model and come back with me! I heard that some wealthy owners and high-level executives in the entertainment industry sleep with entertainers. It's very dark, so let's not get into this muddy water."

The mermaid rested her face with one hand and tilted her head to look at him: "So what?"

"So what?"

"So what if you sleep?"

Qin Lin stood up: "Did you sleep with them?"

The mermaid nodded as a matter of course, as if acknowledging that she ate a biscuit.

Qin Lin was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment.After holding back for a long time, thinking of the toys it brought back last time, it became dizzy again: "I said, how could you have those things, you learned them from these people! You...do you still have any sense of shame? !"

He is angry and sad.The mermaid, however, lacked emotion, and just looked at him with a half-smile, and its face was blurred in the smoke, making it even more difficult to see clearly.

He didn't like the way the mermaid looked at him now, as if he was looking at something funny.

In fact, even such an answer was within his expectation. It's not that he hadn't imagined this possibility. Since there is such a deal, a mermaid who has no sense of morality and self-esteem will most likely not refuse, but he didn't because of his foresight. And reduce discomfort: "Are you my mermaid? Why are you doing it with others!"

The mermaid smiled: "Then why did I do it with you?"

"what why?"

"It's the same to me as to you or to them, it's no different, I don't care."

It says so, and doesn't really seem to care.

In the warm light of the morning sun, its free and easy smile looks lazy and eye-catching, and its eyelashes cover its shimmering eyes softly like a small blanket, and it really doesn't care as it says.

I don't care who buys it home, I don't care who I make out with, I don't care what kind of people I live with.

He hadn't understood why the mermaid didn't bother to contact her when she left home. It was able to leave without nostalgia when he was in a coma in the hospital in the middle of the night, and it couldn't get its forgiveness after being subdued. Now he has the answer.

Is this the mermaid?

Beautiful, slutty, philandering creatures.

Until the assistant picked up the mermaid and left, he still sat there with his hands clasped, his whole body was cold, as if he had fallen into the dark and cold deep sea.

He is just an ordinary person who lacks everything. He is an extremely unremarkable individual among all living beings. He actually raises mermaids like those who lack nothing. He has nothing and can only raise it with his heart. Now he is sad. Of course.

He came here on a special trip to ask for leave, and wanted to persuade the mermaid who ran away in anger to go back with him, but now it seems that there is no need to persuade him anymore, he lost his goal all of a sudden, and the whole person became at a loss.

After wandering the streets of this inland city for a day, a lot of complicated and crowded things in his mind made him restless, but his heart was filled with emptiness.

Before he knew it, it was the first day of the Chinese lanterns, and he felt a dull pain in his stomach, only to remember that he hadn't eaten all day.He casually wandered into a convenience store on the side of the street, stood in front of the dazzling array of food in the freezer section, and then became dazed. An employee came to put the goods on the shelves and asked him if he needed help. He just took two rice balls and went to pay the bill.Opened it and took a bite, it was cold and hard.

He booked an early morning ticket and went back, and returned to the company at 10:[-] the next morning. The leader was shocked when he saw him, and asked why he came back because he had something to do at home. He shook his head and said that everything was done.

In fact, it’s because he can’t stay anymore, being alone and being quiet bombards his nerves, he can’t control the endless repetition of memories and bits and pieces of mermaids, back to the company, to the crowd, with work in hand Having colleagues around him will make him feel a little easier.

It will be difficult at night. At the beginning, I can’t sleep at all. After a while, I will be able to sleep, but I will suddenly wake up in the middle of the night, or wake up from a lot of dreams. Sometimes I can’t react. The mermaid doesn’t belong to him anymore. I want to find it, or beg It's giving itself another chance or something, but those thoughts are only fleeting.He is an adult who can deal with a lovelorn rationally.

As long as it lasts a few hours, it will be daylight.
