Shocked in late autumn

After waiting for the shooting star, being alone in the dark room, and talking with each other, the distance between them seems to be shortening bit by bit, which is a tacit understanding.

Fingertips and cheeks touched each other, bringing back the events in the darkroom that had stopped in the darkroom. At that moment, what were the two of them planning to do?

It's like... like a kiss.

Xu Chenyu looked into Ji Songlin's eyes, and Ji Songlin looked back at him in the same gesture.

The window was ticking, the rainstorm turned to drizzle, the corridor was empty, and the shadows of the two were entangled on the ground, reflecting the bright lights.

The two shadows slowly overlapped, gradually overshadowing each other.

There is only the sound of rain in the air, such silence, with such a person and such eyes, it is hard not to think wildly.

Seeing Xu Chenyu getting closer and closer, Ji Songlin seemed to remind him, and also reminded himself: "Are we...too close."

An inexplicable force pushed Xu Chenyu closer, his voice was deep and low: "Well, a little bit."

The nurse suddenly opened the door of the ward, turned half her body sideways, and shouted, "Where are Shen Xilan's family members? Come and sign."

This sound was too loud, enough to wake up the two people who were obsessed with ghosts, and instantly blew away the ambiguity. They took a step back as if they had seen a ghost, and stood up at the same time.

Xu Chenyu touched the tip of his nose and smiled subtly.

Ji Songlin immediately turned sideways, calmed down his panic, and even took a few sneaky glances at Xu Chenyu.

Even though he could only see his side face, Ji Songlin could still imagine his expression. When Xu Chenyu was shy or embarrassed, he would subconsciously touch the tip of his nose, lower his eyes, and purse his lips tightly.

Some pictures flashed through my mind, one is Pluto sitting on the balcony basking in the sun every morning, squinting his eyes, stretching his buttocks, and lifting two fluffy little paws to rub the tip of his nose.One is to go to the top of the mountain to watch shooting stars, the cold wind howls, making Xu Chenyu's ears turn red from the cold.

Time and space crossed, Xu Chenyu's appearance overlapped with the picture in his mind.

Ji Songlin suddenly felt that this man is sometimes like a cat, sometimes like a rabbit, anyway, he is quite cute.

The nurse still had a lot of orders to deal with, so she shouted again with anxiety: "Shen Xilan's family members are here, hurry up and sign."

Ji Songlin took a deep breath as if nothing had happened, adjusted his pace and walked towards the ward, Xu Chenyu followed closely.

"Which of you is a family member?" The nurse held the signature sheet in her hand and looked at the two people standing side by side.

It was so close just now, and I don't know if the nurse saw it, so Xu Chenyu turned his head to avoid the nurse's gaze.

Ji Songlin took a step forward: "I am."

"Confirm your signature here, and remember to go to the front desk to pay the fee. Turn left on the road ahead and you will find the toll room," the nurse handed over a carbon pen, and carefully instructed: "Shen Xilan is awake, the hospital arranged for her to go to Ward 407, Keep your voice down when you pass by, so as not to disturb other patients."

There are not many people on duty in the hospital. This person should be the head nurse or something. The doctor at the other end has other patients who need to be consulted. He hurriedly urged the nurse to take the pen and notebook and was about to leave.

"Nurse, I'm sorry," Ji Songlin was worried, and stepped ahead of her, standing in front of her: "How is Shen Xilan?"

"It's nothing serious, you can go home after the infusion," the nurse put the notebook under her arm, and kindly reminded before leaving, "Shen Xilan herself has diabetes and high blood pressure, so she must avoid it. You must take your medicine on time, you young people should give you more snacks, and the old people can't stand the toss."

When it comes to taboos, Ji Songlin understands.Shen Xilan likes sweets. She has diabetes and is under the care of her grandson, so she can't usually eat. Ji Songlin only allowed her to taste a little bit on her birthday. He is not at home today, maybe grandma stole sweets again.

Ji Songlin put his hands behind his back and bowed his head to listen to the training like a middle school student who didn't hand in his homework. At the end, he thanked the nurse with a good temper.

There was a sound of even breathing in the ward. According to the head nurse's instructions, the two walked very lightly. When passing by a ward, there was a dirty tissue lying on the door. Ji Songlin bent down, picked it up, and threw it into the trash can .As if he knew it by heart, he moved smoothly, straightened up, and walked forward naturally, without any memory of the episode just now.

Xu Chenyu slowed down, looked at Ji Songlin's back, and suddenly couldn't move his eyes away.

He claims to be a polite person, he treats everything with neither humble nor overbearing, does not bother others at work, and sticks to his own line in life, he didn't notice that little piece of waste paper, but Ji Songlin saw it.

Upbringing this kind of thing has never been about shouting and slogans, but about details. Xu Chenyu feels that he has too little perception of the real Ji Songlin. This person should be more outstanding than he imagined.

The door of Room 407 was ajar, Ji Songlin reached out and pushed the door open.

The ward was a single room with a small bed, and the aisle was a bit crowded. The old man on the bed was leaning on a soft pillow, smiling at the two young people who entered the door.

"Linlin, you're here."

The old man moved her body. Her lips were dry and her expression looked a little tired, but she still smiled mischievously. That smile had gone through seven or eighty years and reshaped her youthful appearance.

It was a weather-stained face, the yellow skin was engraved with lines, the eyeballs were cloudy, and there was a pair of presbyopic glasses on the bridge of the nose, but when he smiled, the whole person showed another feeling, the eyes hiding behind the lenses narrowed slightly Together, let her become vivid and fresh.

Ji Songlin was serious, walked to the hospital bed, and covered his grandmother with a quilt: "Lie down, the infusion is on, didn't the doctor tell you not to move around?"

Shen Xilan's face was bloodless, she was still smiling, and quibbled: "I'm in good health, but I'm in good spirits. I'm just waiting for you to pick me up. Let's go home now."

"I've fainted, don't take it seriously, get a good night's sleep, and wait until dawn before leaving."

Shen Xilan stretched out an arm, able to bend and stretch, to prove her health: "What kind of hospital should I go to for this little problem? The hospitalization fee in this hospital is too expensive, don't waste money."

Ji Songlin refused to listen, and helped his grandmother adjust the cushions with a sullen face. After sending Zhang Huaizong back, he went home, and the candy box in the refrigerator was half covered, obviously someone had opened it.

He cleared his throat and asked like a teacher interrogating a student: "Did you steal chocolate again today?"

"No!" Shen Xilan reacted very quickly, and immediately denied: "How is it possible."

"Still lying to me? I just got home, and the refrigerator has been opened, and there's still that box of chocolates, and the lid hasn't even been closed."

"Hey, let me tell you, I saw two mice coming to the yard a few days ago, maybe those two mice ate it secretly." I am preparing to preach with righteous words.

"Mother-in-law, hello, I'm Songlin's friend." On the way to the ward, Xu Chenyu poured a cup of hot water, and he handed the paper cup over: "You're thirsty, drink first."

At this moment, Xu Chenyu appeared in time, relieving the tense atmosphere between the mother-in-law and the grandson.

The interruption was just right, and a "gunpowder smoke" disappeared immediately.

The moment the white door was pushed open, Shen Xilan saw this young man in white for the first time. He spoke flatteringly, no matter whether he intended it or not, he coaxed the old woman to smile.

Shen Xilan took the paper cup, took a sip of hot water, gave up half of the hospital bed, and motioned him to sit down.

Ji Songlin introduced to Shen Xilan that he was his friend, and the two made an appointment to develop photos together. After receiving a call from Zhang Huaizong, they hurried to the hospital, and also criticized their grandmother by the way.

After Shen Xilan finished drinking the water, she didn't want to talk to Ji Songlin, her eyes flicked back and forth on the young man in white for a few times, and she started talking enthusiastically with Xu Chenyu again.

The content of the conversation is nothing more than where he is from, where he works, and what occupation he does. Xu Chenyu answered seriously, without a trace of perfunctory or impatience. Generally understand.

Holding the paper cup, the old woman spoke curiously like a child: "Chenyu is the police? I watched on TV and said that being a policeman is very dangerous. You have to face bad guys every day, such as thieves and robbers. Some people even bring Where's the gun?"

Every time he goes on a mission, it can be regarded as close to death. Xu Chenyu does not deny the danger of the work. He sits on the head of the bed and tells an ordinary and non-confidential story about the work in a lively manner, which Shen Xi listens to. Lan was so shocked that he insisted on pestering him to say two more.

The doctor was watching the night and happened to walk outside the ward. He knocked on the glass to signal silence.

Looking at the pendulum on the wall, it was early in the morning, and it was indeed getting late.

Shen Xilan and Xu Chenyu looked at each other, he pursed his lips, pointed to the pillow, and signaled for the old man to rest.

It was late at night, Xu Chenyu covered the old woman with a quilt, took the empty paper cup in her hand, went around to the other side of the hospital bed, and threw it into the trash can.

"Mother-in-law, it's already four o'clock, you should go to bed early," Xu Chenyu said, "When it's dawn, Songlin and I will take you home."

Ji Songlin took out the small medicine box, and gently fed the medicine to grandma, not forgetting to tell her in a low voice not to steal any more sweets.

Before leaving, Shen Xilan called Xu Chenyu to stop, she said softly: "Police is not an easy job, the old lady admires you so much."

This was said lightly, but Xu Chenyu was inexplicably touched when he heard it.

The drizzle stopped, and the cold wind passed by, bringing a hint of coolness. There were many puddles in the yard, reflecting the shining white moon and two figures walking side by side.

Not long after the hospital landed, there was a pontoon bridge between the inpatient department and the parking lot, with gurgling water winding through it.

There was a unique fragrance after the rain in the air. When passing by the lush and lush grass, Xu Chenyu squatted down, pointed to a piece of green dyeing, and said, "Hey, Jiangli grass is actually planted here."

Ji Songlin also knelt down: "Jiang Licao? Do you have any explanation?"

"Middle school text, have you memorized "The Songs of Chu", Hu Jiangli and Pi Zhixi, Ren Qiulan admired it, it is about this kind of grass."

"Junior high school, more than ten years have passed, and you can still remember it so clearly."

"That's right, I'm the representative of the Chinese class." Xu Chenyu cut off one of the plants and held it in his hand: "Jiang Li has another name, it's called Miwu, and it can be used as a spice. You can smell it."

Ji Songlin lowered his head and sniffed, his palm was filled with a rich fragrance, which made people feel swayed by the smell.

The night is no longer dark, and the color of the moon is gradually fading.

People came and went, two big men just squatted under the floating bridge, studying an inconspicuous grass, their appearance was a bit funny, but they didn't care.

Ji Songlin looked at Xu Chenyu's dark circles: "You haven't slept all night, are you tired?"

"Not tired, you haven't slept all night, have you?"

After a while, Ji Songlin looked at him with interest, and suddenly said: "Why don't we go watch the sunrise."

The pointer on the watch is exactly five o'clock, and the sky is approaching dawn.

Xu Chenyu smiled warmly and said, "Okay."

Half an hour's drive from the hospital, across a long row of birch forests, in the twilight, they opened the car door, and they stood against the morning sun, standing on the top of the towering mountain.

The top of the mountain occupies a good area. From here, you can have a panoramic view of most of Z City, see the brilliance of the sun and the lights of the night.

A layer of autumn frost condensed on the bushes, Xu Chenyu squinted his eyes due to the wind, rubbed his hands, and tightened his collar.

"Coffee." Ji Songlin handed the thermos cup to Xu Chenyu's eyes: "It should still be hot."

The lid of the cup was unscrewed, and the hot aroma spiraled in. Xu Chenyu took a sip, it was thick but not bitter, sweet and mellow to the throat, mixed with a special fragrance, the coffee dripped over the tip of the tongue, leaving an endless aftertaste.

Xu Chenyu smacked the aftertaste: "Why is it different from what I usually drink."

"I added a little jasmine powder, the aroma can neutralize the sour taste of coffee?" Ji Songlin observed his expression: "Are you still used to drinking it?"

Xu Chenyu is not picky about "eating" at all, and he doesn't deliberately study it, especially when he is working, he often eats a full meal and a hungry meal. When a task comes, he will rush to it immediately whether he is on vacation or on duty. front.In this regard, Ji Songlin is completely opposite to him. He will spend a long time cooking a bowl of hot soup, and he will patiently make a cup of hand-ground coffee. Xu Chenyu feels that when he is with the people around him, he can always find surprises in small daily things.

"It's delicious, mellow and fragrant." With an indelible smile on the corners of Xu Chenyu's eyes, he handed the cup to him: "Try it too."

Ji Songlin took the thermos cup, the mouth of the cup left the temperature of Xu Chenyu's lips, he hesitated for a while, and took a sip of coffee, his thin lips covered the imprint every inch.

In the sound of the wind, the two kissed a jasmine-scented kiss through the coffee cups.

Ji Songlin looked into the distance, the world fell into a kind of silence, Xu Chenyu didn't speak, he couldn't bear to spoil such a warm and beautiful moment.

Xu Chenyu felt that Ji Songlin's appearance had a sense of tranquility and far-reaching, which was fascinating.

"The sun!" Ji Songlin looked ahead and saw an unforgettable scene.

Xu Chenyu followed his gaze.

When the wind suddenly blows, dark clouds roll in the sky, and the rising sun carries brilliant colors, like a sharp blade, flashing countless golden lights to break through the shackles.The golden awns scattered all over the grass and fields, melting the autumn frost, and the sound of the wind and waves was surging.

The sky seems to have no end. Standing under the sky, they are like insignificant ants, and also like dust passing away with the wind. For the world, the past and memory will be wiped out in an instant.

The vast sea of ​​people can meet each other. Thinking of this, I feel how lucky I am in this life.

"Xu Chenyu,"

"Ji Songlin,"

The two were bathed in the golden light, looking up at the rising sun, but they called each other's name at the same time.

They looked at each other, met and smiled.

"Good morning!"

This is the most ordinary day, the moon sets and the sun rises, there is no difference from usual, but for the two people standing side by side on the top of the mountain, they will never forget it.
