Mr. Incompetent Bodyguard

Ji Jin's father is a university professor, and his mother is a musician. The four old people above are also quite prominent in the art and education circles.Coupled with the fact that some of the brothers and sisters are engaged in business and politics, there are quite a few prominent figures among the guests invited here.

Ji Jin has never been good at socializing, and Su An is responsible for such matters.But this time, as the son of the host family, if Ji Jin doesn't go to toast, it will be shameful.Even though he was reluctant, Ji Jin took the wine glass and followed Su An.

The banquet hall is full of relatives and friends, and there will be no dangerous people.If you take Shen Qingyu and the three of you to walk together, it will seem that Ji Jin is too ostentatious and gives people a bad impression.So Su An asked Shen Qingyu to take some food and drink for the time being and take a rest, and then come to Shen Qingyu after they finished toasting.

After Su An led Ji Jin away, Shen Qingyu didn't know what to do alone, so he leaned against a wall and watched Ji Jin and Su An shuttle back and forth among the crowd from afar.

"Hi, hello." Suddenly someone patted his shoulder.

"Hello?" Shen Qingyu withdrew his gaze and turned to the strange girl with delicate makeup in front of him.

"My name is Zhou Wan," the girl asked, "What's your name?"

"Shen Qingyu."

"Oh, Shen Qingyu... Which Qing? Is it sunny?"

"Qing Cang's Qing."

"Oh! You can hold the universe with your hand..." Zhou Wan smiled shyly, "What a magnificent name!"

Shen Qingyu didn't know the purpose of her strike up a conversation with him, so he could only smile: "Thank you."

"My father is a friend of Teacher Yin, and I happened to be working across the street, so they asked me to come with me." Zhou Wan pointed to a towering financial building opposite, and asked expectantly, "What about you?" ? Who did you come with?"

"Me? I'm Ji Jin's assistant."

"Assistant?" Zhou Wan's smile froze, as if she was a little disappointed, "Ah, yes, is that right?...It should be interesting to be a star assistant?"

"Ah."

Zhou Wan hesitated for a while, her enthusiasm dropped a little.But Shen Qingyu's handsome facial features made her unable to move her feet.So she still smiled and continued to look for topics: "Then you should know a lot of celebrity gossip, right? Can you tell me any interesting gossip?"

"Sorry." Shen Qingyu shook his head, "I signed a non-disclosure agreement."

"…………"

The two stared at each other for a moment, the atmosphere was so cold that it could freeze to death.Zhou Wan finally couldn't take it anymore, she smiled politely: "I'm sorry, I'll go get some food first." After speaking, she walked away.

Shen Qingyu saw that Zhou Wan left the self-service area straight away, and didn't really go to "get something to eat", so he squinted his eyes in doubt.He still doesn't understand what happened just now.

He withdrew his gaze, looked around the venue, and looked for Ji Jin again.There were already a lot of people in the venue. The men were all in suits and leather shoes, and the women were all in gorgeous dresses. Shen Qingyu suddenly found that everyone in this feasting venue was well-dressed and had an extraordinary bearing—they should all be elites in various industries or belong to wealthy families. child.

He looked down at the high-end suit that Ji Jin lent him again... He suddenly understood Zhou Wan's psychological change just now.

He shook his head with a grin and raised his head to take a sip of red wine.

Su An walked back and forth talking and laughing happily with different people.Ji Jin seldom talked by her side, and occasionally she would pull her forward to say a few words, lightly clink the wine glass with someone, and take a sip of the wine.Although his attitude is cold, everyone's attitude towards him is very warm.

Shen Qingyu leaned in the corner and watched silently for a while, then brought the wine glass to his lips, only to find that the glass was empty.

He walked to the self-service counter and put down the empty glass. He was about to get a new glass of red wine when he suddenly heard someone commenting: "Look, Professor Ji is here."

Shen Qingyu looked towards the entrance of the banquet hall, and saw a middle-aged man in a black suit walking in.

That is a very elegant man.He is about 1.8 meters tall, with a thin body and a straight back.His eyes are wide open.Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, his skin is as fair as Ji Jin.Men at this age often rely on temperament to make the first impression on people, but he has no vulgarity that is often easily contaminated with Taoism on the wine table in Fengyuechang, only a strong bookish atmosphere.

After Ji Junqian came in, someone soon took the initiative to greet him.He responded one by one.Suddenly, he saw Ji Jin in the crowd, and immediately walked towards Ji Jin.

……

"Uncle!" Seeing Ji Junqian approaching, Su An immediately went up and hugged Ji Junqian's arm affectionately, "Have you finished class?"

The children of their generation all like Ji Junqian, because Ji Junqian is the most patient, knowledgeable and humorous, even if he is just explaining the truth to the younger generation, everyone loves to listen, and they can even get along with him as a friend.

"Well, I just rushed over from school." Ji Junqian smiled at Su An, turned his face to look at Ji Jin, "Xiao Jin, you are here."

From the moment he saw him approaching, Ji Jin became very stiff.He didn't respond to Ji Junqian's gaze, but gave a cold "hmm".

People who didn't know saw it, and probably thought that Su An was Ji Junqian's real daughter.Even Su An felt strange, in her impression that Ji Jin and his father were very close when they were young, but at some point, the father and son suddenly became estranged.

Ji Junqian looked at Ji Jin and found that he was avoiding his gaze, so he frowned slightly.He said to Su An: "Xiao An, I haven't seen Xiao Jin for a long time, and I want to chat with him."

Su An immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly said: "Okay, uncle, you can talk slowly, I'll go get something to eat first." After finishing speaking, she walked away.

Ji Junqian wanted to pull Ji Jin to take two steps to a place where no one was around, but before his hand touched Ji Jin, Ji Jin stepped aside.Ji Junqian had no choice but to walk to the open place first, and Ji Jin followed.

"Xiao Jin," Ji Junqian asked, "Why didn't you reply when I sent you a message?"

Ji Jin looked down at the shoes: "I'm too busy with work, so I didn't see them."

Ji Junqian opened and closed his lips several times.He seemed to have to think carefully before he could talk to Ji Jin: "Then how are you doing recently? Is work going well...how is life going?"

"all good."

Ji Junqian looked at him, wanted to sigh but held back.He hesitated for a moment, and stretched out his hand to touch Ji Jin's hair, but Ji Jin leaned back to avoid it, but Ji Junqian didn't give up, and still put his hand on top of his head.

"Xiao Jin..." His eyes were puzzled, a little eager and a little helpless.Even he himself couldn't figure out why Ji Jin had such an attitude towards him now, "Is there some misunderstanding between us? If you have any thoughts, you can tell Dad."

The muscles of Ji Jin's whole body began to swell due to too much exertion, and the palms hanging by his sides were clenched into fists, trembling slightly.Because he controlled it very hard, Ji Junqian didn't see the clue.

The atmosphere was stalemate for a moment, and Ji Jin suddenly slipped out from under Ji Junqian: "I'm going to the bathroom!"

Ji Junqian was taken aback: "You..."

Ji Jin walked out without looking back.

Ji Junqian closed his eyes in disappointment, and shouted behind him: "Xiao Jin, let's talk later, I have something to tell you!"

Ji Jin has gone far.

Ji Jin ran towards the entrance of the banquet hall, and when he passed the self-service area, he bumped into Su An who was getting a drink, and Su An stopped him in surprise: "Hey? You and uncle finished chatting so quickly? Where are you going? ah?"

Ji Jin shook off her arm: "Go to the bathroom!"

"Oh, okay. Then come and find me after you're done, and I'll talk to you about going on stage later. I know you're definitely not prepared, so I wrote some words of congratulations to my aunt and thank you for the guests, you wait Just go to the stage and read it later..."

Ji Jin felt his ears buzzing, and didn't want to hear what she was saying, so he ran out at a faster pace.

Running to the toilet, Ji Jin rushed forward with his head depressed.Now he just wants to find a space where no one is around to hide and calm down. The private room in the bathroom is a good choice.

He ran too fast and didn't look at the road at all. When he ran to the corner, a person came out of the corner. Ji Jin dodged quickly, and the two bumped into shoulders.

Ji Jin staggered due to inertia and rushed out two steps, and the person he hit hit the wall.

After standing still, Ji Jin turned around, and couldn't help being taken aback when he saw the person hit by him—coincidentally, just after talking to his father, he bumped into his mother again at the toilet door.

Yin Qing leaned against the wall for a while before raising his eyes. When he saw Ji Jin, he didn't have any special reaction.After a few seconds, she nodded as if she had just recognized the person in front of her: "It's you."

Ji Jin's mind was completely confused, and he didn't know whether to go to help her or not.He asked shortly, "Are you okay?"

Yin Qing shook her head slowly, walked away from the wall, and continued to go to the women's toilet - she also came to use the toilet.

Ji Jin didn't dare to get too close to her, and stood still, wanting to wait for her to go in before entering the men's toilet next to him.

However, within two steps of Yin Qing's walk, he suddenly lost his balance and fell to the side, with the soles of his feet fluttering and slanted out for a few steps.Ji Jin's body reacted faster than his brain, and immediately stepped forward to support her.

"What's wrong with you?" Ji Jin thought she was injured just now, and lowered his head to look at her feet.

Yin Qing waved his hand, indicating that he was not injured, and handed the handbag to Ji Jin: "Help me get it first."

Ji Jin caught it at a loss.

Yin Qing didn't say anything to him, and walked slowly into the toilet with the help of the wall.

Ji Jin stared blankly at her back, and suddenly had a guess in his heart.Fat body, unresponsiveness, emotional numbness, and even poor balance...

He pinched the hard texture in the handbag, and without any hesitation, he immediately opened the zipper of the handbag.The handbag contained lipstick, powder, spray tissues and other miscellaneous small things. He rummaged through it for a while, and he didn't bother to pick up the lipstick when it fell on the floor. Finally, he found a white plastic medicine box from the bottom of the handbag.

It was a divided medicine box, which contained some messy pills without labels, and those who had never seen them would not know what kind of medicine it was, but Ji Jin recognized some of them at a glance.Lithium carbonate, olanzapine, magnesium valproate...

— all antimanic and antidepressant medications.

"...fuck!" Ji Jin clenched his fist and swung it in the air.I don't even know how to vent.

Three minutes later, Yin Qing walked out of the bathroom, only to see a hotel waiter standing outside, holding her handbag.

"Ma'am, is this your thing?" The waiter handed it over carefully, "Just now Mr. Ji gave it to me and left."

Yin Qing caught the bag, and let out a long-pitched "Oh--".It took her several seconds to figure out which Mr. Ji it was.It felt a little strange, but I couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I went back to the box.

……

In the banquet hall, Su An turned around a lot, and finally found Shen Qingyu who was leaning against the wall.She hurried over and asked, "Xiaoyu, have you seen Ah Jin?"

Shen Qingyu shook his head.He hadn't seen Ji Jin for a long time, and he was also looking for him.Just now he sent a message to Ji Jin asking where he was, but Ji Jin hasn't replied yet.

Su An looked puzzled: "Really, where did he go? The banquet will officially start soon, and I want him to come on stage and say a few words on behalf of the host."

She turned her neck and looked around, muttering in a low voice: "You don't answer the phone, you don't reply to the message, what's the matter?"

Shen Qingyu's heart skipped a beat.

"If you see him, tell him that I'm looking for him." Su An told Shen Qingyu, "I'll look elsewhere."

Shen Qingyu nodded.As soon as Su An walked away, he immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Ji Jin.

"Beep...beep...beep...sorry, the user you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please wait..."

Shen Qingyu pressed the phone, pinched the phone and thought for two seconds, then turned and ran outside.

……

Eighth floor terrace.

The banquet was held on the seventh floor. There is a spacious terrace on the eighth floor of this hotel, with several small tables with sun umbrellas, which is convenient for guests to drink coffee and chat here, and enjoy the spring along the Pujiang River not far away. .

Ji Jin stood by the railing.This point was when the sun was at its most venomous, and there were no other guests on the terrace except him.

He ran up to find a place where no one was around for a while, and blowing some air might clear his swollen mind.But there was no wind on the terrace in the afternoon except for the dizzy sun, and the scorching sun made his brain even more painful.

There seemed to be more than a dozen symphony orchestras playing in his mind at the same time, and the frightening thing was that he could hear every note in it.The brain is processing so many threads of information at the same time that he is about to explode.

——A few days ago, Shen Qingyu asked him how his relationship with his father was. He didn't say anything, not because he didn't want to talk to Shen Qingyu, but because he didn't know where to start.After saying something, he didn't dare to think what Shen Qingyu would think of him.

——Ji Junqian asked him just now, is there any misunderstanding between them?Ji Junqian didn't even know what happened.

Is it a misunderstanding?No, it's hypocritical, it's sick, it's fucking crazy!

Before the age of 14, his favorite person was Ji Junqian.Ji Junqian is very patient and never gets angry with him, unlike his mother who is moody.Every time Yin Qing loses his temper and smashes things, Ji Junqian will silently step forward to clean up the mess, and then continue to live as if nothing happened.

At that time Ji Jin felt that his father was very pitiful.He hates his mother, not only because his mother is moody with him, but also because he loves his father.

At that time, he and Ji Junqian were indeed very close.He wouldn't tell Yin Qing what happened in school, he would only tell Ji Junqian.Even if Dad just smiled at him and patted him on the head, he felt very happy.

Since when did their father and son become estranged? …was the day he had an anxiety attack and threw a tantrum at home because he didn’t get the vinyl record he wanted.His father looked at him with tired and sad eyes, and said to him: "Xiao Jin, don't be like your mother. Otherwise, no one will like you in the future."

This was probably just Ji Junqian's unintentional remark, but to Ji Jin, it was like a thunderbolt, directly turning him into scum!

The thing he least expected to happen had already happened.

From that day on, he began to avoid contact with Ji Junqian.I don't want to see my father, I don't want to talk to my father.He changed Ji Junqian's remark name to "Second Piano Concerto", and he didn't even want to see the name.Any clue would make that sentence echo in his mind like a curse.

What a fucking... what a fucking fuck!

Every time Ji Jin thinks of that sentence, he really wants to scold someone, but he doesn't know who to scold.He created many works in this kind of grief and indignation, and even won several creative awards for it.

His parents were evenly matched at this point—they both became his inspirations.How many late nights, listening to my mother's performance, thinking of my father's words, one after another songs that spread all over the country were born in this way.

— But who is to blame for all this?Blame Yin Qing?Sure enough, she was also diagnosed, and she should have just started treatment recently, so she had such a big reaction after taking the medicine.She suffered for many years without even knowing she was sick.

- Blame Ji Junqian?His ten years of patient upbringing, just because of a careless remark, was avoided by his narrow-minded son like a plague!

——Who can blame?Blame himself!If he is a normal person with stable emotions, he will not break down with his mother and hurt each other when his mother breaks down.

——If he is a conscientious and filial son, he should think about every bit of Ji Junqian's kindness to him, instead of being stuck in a sentence and unable to get out!

— sober up!Now that you know it's all your fault, go back quickly!Get along with your family happily like a normal person, and give a toast to all the guests to thank you!

——What are you still doing here?What the hell are you trying to do?

The brain seems to have regained its sanity, giving the most correct and rational orders.But the body has to fight against the brain, just not going to the banquet hall.The body is even anxious to escape from this place, and can't even wait for the time to go back to the elevator. Jumping off the terrace is the fastest way to leave the hotel.

Ji Jin propped his hands on the edge of the terrace for strength, and raised his feet to step on the railing.He leaned his upper body forward, stuck his head out of the railing, and saw the flower beds and the road downstairs.The eighth floor is 30 meters above the ground, so you can indeed leave the hotel if you jump down like this, but you will also fall to your death.

—Is he going to commit suicide now?

——No, he still has a lot of things to do!

Ji Jin woke up from the chaotic state at once, and was startled by his state just now, breaking out in a cold sweat.He suddenly pushed open the railing and backed away, with only one thought in his mind - he was going to find Shen Qingyu, he needed Shen Qingyu!

He was about to turn around and run back when suddenly a pair of powerful arms hugged him tightly from behind.The person holding him was so hard that he almost strangled him out of breath. The movement was so fast that Ji Jin was so scared that he thought he was being robbed.

"Who? Let me go!"

"It's me! It's me."

When Ji Jin heard a familiar voice, he almost thought he was hallucinating.Why does this person really fall from the sky and give him a hug when he wants to hug him...

Ji Jin was in a trance for a few seconds, and relaxed as if he had been drained of strength.He patted Shen Qingyu's arm lightly: "Let me turn around." He also needs to hug something to feel more secure.

Shen Qingyu didn't let go, he closed his eyes, silently adjusted his breathing rate, and comforted his heart that almost stopped beating just now.After controlling his emotions, he finally let go and let Ji Jin turn around.

The two embraced each other, and Shen Qingyu gently stroked his back: "A Jin..."

"Um……"

"nothing."

"Ah."

Shen Qingyu didn't ask Ji Jin what he was doing on the balcony just now, and Ji Jin didn't say anything, the two avoided the topic tacitly.

"Shen Qingyu," Ji Jin whispered with his arms around his waist, "I want to leave this place, I want to go home..."

He can't get along with his family happily, and he can't toast to all the guests generously, and he doesn't know how to face his parents when he goes back. Even if he knows it's wrong, he still wants to escape now.

Shen Qingyu was slightly taken aback, took his hand and walked back.

Ji Jin was startled, and grabbed his arm instead: "Where are you going?"

"Take you home."

"..."

What Ji Jin said just now was more like a complaint or a confession than a declarative sentence.This is his mother's 50th birthday, with so many relatives and friends present, how could he just leave like this?What would others say about him?How would others laugh at his family?

Before Ji Jin could contradict himself, Shen Qingyu asked first, "Do you want to go back to the banquet hall?"

Ji Jin shook his head quickly.

"Then do you want to go home?"

Ji Jin hesitated for two seconds, then nodded slightly.

"Let's go then."

"but I……"

He had just said two words when Shen Qingyu suddenly grabbed his arm and took a step sideways. Before Ji Jin could realize what happened, his back suddenly hit Shen Qingyu's chest, and his neck was crushed by Shen Qingyu. Yu's right arm was locked.If at this moment Shen Qingyu puts the gun on his temple with his left hand, then this is the standard hostage-taking action in the movie.

Ji Jin didn't struggle, but just looked at Shen Qingyu blankly from the side.Their faces were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.If the bridges of the noses of both of them were not high enough, I'm afraid their lips would touch each other.

Shen Qingyu's eyes flickered, and he leaned back slightly to distance himself from the tip of Ji Jin's nose.He deliberately said in a cold tone next to Ji Jin's ear: "It's up to you now. Ji Jin, you have been hijacked by me."

Ji Jin felt his warm breath pouring into his body along the cochlea, and he was stunned.
