half city sweet

The curtain falls and wakes up from a clear dream.

Qiao Chu slowly opened his eyes, and when he turned his head, he saw Huo Jingchen lying on the edge of the hospital bed, his tall body huddled in the chair, frowning slightly, his eyes were black and blue, and the stubble on his chin appeared. The thin blanket that was covering it had slipped under the chair, and it looked really embarrassing.

Qiao Chu propped his arms and gently rolled out of bed, walked behind Huo Jingchen, picked up the blanket on the ground and put it on him.Xu felt some warmth, Huo Jingchen gently rubbed his arms under his head and fell asleep even deeper.

Qiao Chu turned around and walked to the window to look at the cloudy and low sky not far away. The autumn rain continued, and the air was a little bit cold, but he felt that the sun was about to come out, and the truth hidden under the gloom was about to come out. uncovered.

The warm coat was draped over his shoulders. Qiao Chu turned his head to look at it. Huo Jingchen lowered his head slightly and was straightening his collar for him. He has always been so gentle, no matter what the world is like, he has never changed.Suddenly there was a kind of epiphany in his heart, a kind of relief, so he couldn't help calling out "Huo Jingchen."

Hearing the sound, Huo Jingchen withdrew the hand that straightened his collar and looked up at him.

Qiao Chu shook his head, did not speak, turned his head to look at Qiu Yu outside the window, seeing that he had nothing to say, Huo Jingchen took another look at him, then slowly turned his head and looked out of the window.

Zhang Ye pushed open the door and saw the two standing side by side in front of the window. She put the food box in her hand on the small tea table beside the bed, knocked on the lid of the food box and said loudly, "Just wake up and stand up!" You don’t have to worry about catching cold if you blow the wind by the window.”

Huo Jingchen helped Qiao Chu sit back on the hospital bed, and Zhang Ye handed the breakfast to the two of them.Qiao Chu's mouth was bruised and he was slow to eat. She looked at it and felt distressed again, and her eyes began to turn red.

Qiao Chu swallowed the porridge in his mouth, and comforted her slowly, "I'm fine, don't worry."

With the embarrassment that was punctured on Zhang Ye's face, he immediately said in a vicious voice, "Who is worried about you? I feel sorry for my food money for the past two years. I put you on a little fat with great difficulty, but now you have lost weight again. I Do you know if you lose a lot?"

As she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks, "You foolishly chased after knowing that that person was Lin Qi, don't you know how much he hates you? what to do."

A look of pain flashed across Huo Jingchen's face upon hearing this.Qiao Chu took out a facial tissue from the coffee table to wipe her tears. Zhang Ye snatched it away, wiped it hard twice, and then said, "I shouldn't have listened to you back then, saying that people around me were afraid of scaring the snake, but now people are not alarmed. But I got injured all over, tomorrow, tomorrow I will arrange two bodyguards to come over."

Back when Zhang Ye knew he was going to Li Hai to find someone, Zhang Ye wanted to place two bodyguards around Qiao Chu, but he disagreed. Since Lin Qi deliberately left clues, he deliberately wanted to lure him there. A bodyguard, according to Lin Qi's character, he might disappear again, and finally got a clue, how could he allow it to be broken, even if he knew that there was a trap set by Lin Qi ahead, he would go.

Qiao Chu didn't make a sound, but just lowered his eyes and stirred the porridge in his hands. Seeing his resistance, Huo Jingchen immediately said, "We'll talk about this later, let's eat first."

Zhang Ye cried a lot and felt a lot better. She also knew that Qiao Chu could not agree to the arrangement of bodyguards. Seeing that Huo Jingchen had stopped talking, she wrinkled her nose and snorted, "You are the one who loves him the most."

Huo Jingchen picked up a chopsticks dish for Qiao Chu and said, "Yes."

Zhang Ye raised his head and rolled his eyes. How could she have forgotten that these two people used to stop her by singing and singing together.

Qiao Chu was not seriously injured, but he was kept at home by the two for five or six days. On the second day after he was allowed to go out, the autumn rain that lasted for half a month finally stopped intermittently.

Zhang Ye leaned on the window and looked at the looming rainbow in the sky and shouted excitedly, "It's going to be sunny today, how about going to play tomorrow and relax."

Huo Jingchen came out from the kitchen with a plate of fruit, and frowned at Zhang Ye. He really couldn't understand why a girl likes such an intense sport like basketball.

Zhang Ye stomped over to the coffee table, picked a grape from the fruit plate and threw it into his mouth. He ate and said, "I know there is a good basketball court in the suburbs of the city. The place is big and the facilities are complete. How about playing it?" One game."

Huo Jingchen glanced at Qiao Chu who was sitting on the sofa and fiddled with his mobile phone, his brows were frowned and he directly denied, "Qiao Chu's body is just right, not suitable for strenuous exercise, let's look at other things."

Zhang Ye sat on the ground with his chin resting on the side of the tea table. He had no image at all. "We don't play duels, we just shoot shots. Qiao Chu is fine. Otherwise, do you have any good suggestions?"

Huo Jingchen pointed to the magazine he just brought back in the morning, "Isn't there a new hot spring resort in the northern suburbs?" Qiao Chu is not in good health, so it's good to go to the hot springs, or to climb the green hills in the northern suburbs. You want beautiful scenery, few people, and no effort.

Zhang Ye was not happy and said that he was 30 years old and had an 80-year-old body.Huo Jingchen's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and he took out an apple from the fruit plate and stuffed it into her mouth. Zhang Ye was just talking about being happy when he took such an angrily bite, and the chewing was very crisp. He took the apple in his hand for Huo Jingchen's head.

Huo Jingchen peeled the fruit with a fruit knife without changing his expression. Zhang Ye bit into the apple for a while, but he was unwilling to think about it, and then kept pestering him about the benefits of playing basketball.

Qiao Chu, who was a little dazed by Zhang Ye's movement, looked over. He flicked through the message he had just received on his phone, and said softly, "Go to Luming Lake."

Huo Jingchen glanced at the mobile phone he was holding in his right hand with an inexplicable expression, hesitated for a while, and then nodded slightly.Zhang Ye stopped making noise and muttered while holding the tablet that he wanted to order some things for the picnic.

She moved neatly and brought her things over just after lunch. Zhang Ye randomly rummaged through the boxes piled up on the ground, and dragged Huo Jingchen to tidy them up. Fell asleep on the couch.

Seeing that Huo Jingchen pulled a blanket scattered on the sofa to cover him, he said something to Zhang Ye in a low voice, and then went out with his clothes.

Qiao Chu slept heavily this time, and when he woke up, it was already dark. Huo Jingchen was cooking in the kitchen wearing an apron, and Zhang Ye squatted at the door with a vegetable leaf. Sitting up on the sofa, rubbed his forehead, got up and washed his face, just after he came out of the bathroom, he heard Huo Jingchen calling him to eat, four dishes and one soup, as light as always.

In the middle of the night, Qiao Chu felt thirsty. He opened the bedroom door in the dark, and saw Huo Jingchen sitting on the sofa at a glance.

The curtains in the living room were not drawn, and the moonlight slipped into the room along the glass windows. Huo Jingchen leaned his head up on the sofa, holding an unlit cigarette in his left hand, and looked sideways at him when he heard Qiao Chu open the door.

Qiao Chu poured two glasses of water from the kitchen and sat down beside him.Huo Jingchen put down the cigarette and turned to grab Qiao Chu's left hand. The wound on his left wrist was clearly visible in the moonlight. Huo Jingchen stroked it twice, took out a watch from his trousers pocket, and brought it to his left hand. The soft leather strap was tight. Really cover the scar on Qiao Chu's wrist.

Seeing Qiao Chu's doubts, Huo Jingchen twitched the corner of his mouth and explained, "I bought it on purpose this afternoon, don't pick it up."

Qiao Chu's heart moved, and he immediately understood what Huo Jingchen meant. This watch probably has some positioning function.He nodded, pushed the water glass on the coffee table and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."

"En." Huo Jingchen drank all the water in the glass, stood up and walked to the guest room. When he reached the door, he stopped and turned to look at Qiao Chu. The moon was sinking like water, and Huo Jingchen's eyes were full of hope and prayer in the night, The maple leaves are in full bloom in Li Hai at this time, when these things are settled, let's go and have a look together."

Almost instantly, Qiao Chu knew that Huo Jingchen had guessed his plan. At that moment, Qiao Chu was caught off guard by the begging in Huo Jingchen's eyes. He suddenly felt that it was not worthwhile for him to want to die with Lin Qi.

Waking up for the first time, Qiao Chu slightly bent his eyebrows, his eyes were as bright as stars, and replied in a deep voice, "Okay."

His voice was not high, but it was exceptionally clear in the dark night. The moment he heard Qiao Chu's answer, Huo Jingchen's eyes were tinged with a stream of light, and his whole body inadvertently emanated a calm joy. Such Huo Jingchen, Qiao Chu also seemed to be infected, and he couldn't help relaxing his tense nerves. Even though the road ahead would be difficult tomorrow, he felt unprecedented peace and peace of mind.

Luming Lake said that the lake is actually a half-sized park on the outskirts of the city. It’s just that the government deliberately preserved many original ecological plants when it was developed. From a distance, it is open, the trees are shaded, the lake is green, and there is a deer nearby. The garden, so it took this name.

Probably because the weather finally cleared up, there were many more people here than usual. The three of Qiao Chu walked along the path by the lake for a long time before finding an open space.Huo Jingchen set up a fishing frame by the lake, handed the fishing rod in his hand to Qiao Chu, and went to set up a tent with Zhang Ye.

Qiao Chu looked at the two people who were busy in the shade of a tree not far away, and sat down on the saddle with downcast eyes.

The autumn wind was blowing, and the blue waves were swaying. Qiao Chu was wearing a beige windbreaker and sitting in the crowd fishing around him, which was particularly conspicuous. As the sun gradually moved up, more and more people came fishing. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It's exactly eleven o'clock in less than two minutes.

Qiao Chu put the fishing rod back on the shelf next to him, held the phone with one hand, and tapped lightly with his index finger on his knee, one, two, three...

As soon as he counted to one hundred, the phone in his hand vibrated.He swiped open the screen with one hand, Lin Qi on the other end of the phone laughed softly, Qiao Chu looked back at Huo Jingchen who was still setting up the tent, got up the next moment and followed the instructions on the phone, turned two turns and gradually blended in into the crowd.

It wasn't until Qiao Chu's figure was completely submerged in the crowd that Huo Jingchen turned his head to look in the direction where he disappeared.As soon as Zhang Ye's eyes turned red, he got up and wanted to chase her. Huo Jingchen grabbed her and said, "I'll go, you go to the police."

Zhang Ye sniffed and swallowed the sourness in his throat, "We must bring him back."

Huo Jingchen didn't speak, raised his hand to stroke her hair, turned around and chased her out with strides.
