desolate

In the middle of the meal, Chen Erwan talked about the purpose of her return this time in a chat with her friends.

In addition to the end of her studies, another aspect is that she is planning to open a marketing studio with her friends, and the first order she receives is to promote an art exhibition.

The exhibits in this art exhibition come from her senior—the man sitting in the corner. When Wang Yihua was introduced, he only heard the English name "Kevin". As for the Chinese name, Wang Yihua didn't pay attention to it.

And when eating and chatting, this person doesn't have much sense of presence, I just feel that this person is perverted and withdrawn.Even Chen Erwan, who was a junior, was a little afraid of him.

But as soon as he heard that the relationship between the two was just seniors, Wang Yihua changed his attitude towards his rival in love, and even took the initiative to ask Ying to send back the two who had just returned to China without a car after the meal.

However, when Dangdai arrived, the five of them looked at each other again at the side of the road.

Kevin was the first to speak: "I'll go back by myself."

Chen Erwan echoed, "Then let me go with you, senior. Anyway, your hotel is also on the way."

"Don't, don't, don't!" Wang Yihua immediately interrupted them, then turned to look at Chen Erxi, his eyes flickering, "Then what brother Xi, how about you..."

"?" Chen Erxi was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

It means that there are opposite sexes without humanity.

Wang Yihua proved with practical actions what a real brother is. He called Chen Erxi an online car-hailing car, and then sent Chen Erwan and Chen Erwan in his own car.

For the sake of the environment, Lanqu Waterside Pavilion did not choose the address in the bustling city center, but chose a more remote lakeside, so it took almost an hour to drive to the hotel where they stayed.Fortunately, there is no traffic jam at night, as long as you drive faster, you can get there in more than half an hour.

Because of the dinner in the afternoon, Wang Yihua and Pei also took half a day off, but some work has been piled up now and they have to deal with it.

After a few work calls, Wang Yihua became dizzy and sobered up after drinking.

After finishing the work, I looked out the window and saw that the road was full of high-rise buildings. The red light stopped their car for 1 minute, and the traffic and pedestrians that flowed into colored lines gradually stopped and stopped beside them.

"Night night—"

After Wang Yihua replied to the message, he turned his head and planned to have a few words with Chen Erwan, but found that she had fallen asleep.

Kevin was awake, staring sideways at the reflection on the car window in a daze.

As if sensing the line of sight, he suddenly turned his head, his eyes were slightly cold, and he looked directly at himself without blinking.

There is a feeling of being caught peeping...

Wang Yihua blinked quickly and looked away, but his eyes wandered for a while, and then looked at the people in the back seat.

He said in a friendly way: "By the way, what K...Senior Kevin, what is your Chinese name? I always feel that you look familiar."

The other party spoke lightly, with a neutral tone: "It has nothing to do with you."

Before exchanging pleasantries, Wang Yihua forgot that this person had an odd personality, so he was suddenly rejected, feeling a little embarrassed, and said resentfully, "It's okay..."

Fortunately, a phone call came at this time, and the lively ringtone of the mobile phone made the awkward atmosphere a little lighter.

"Hey?"

"..."

"Why don't you speak?"

After a burst of loud electrical sounds, a human voice finally came from inside.

"Hello, Andy"

"what happened to you?"

The voice of the person on the other end of the phone was weak and hoarse, showing a sick air, and Wang Yihua could tell that something was wrong with him through the phone. .

"You come to the emergency department of the People's Hospital. My mobile phone is out of battery. Come and pick me up."

"Brother, I'll just say...!"

Before he finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone. Wang Yihua stared at himself on the phone screen with a headache, and then looked at the person in the rearview mirror in embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, the other party raised his head sensitively immediately.

"how?"

"Uh, I have something to go to the People's Hospital temporarily. It's not far away, just across from your hotel. I'll send you off after I pick someone up."

"Yeah." Kevin responded, and quickly looked out of the window again.

"Thank you... no, I'm sorry." Wang Yihua thanked him dully.

The driver turned the car around at the next intersection, and after two more traffic lights, the gate of the People's Hospital appeared on the right side of the road.

The car drove into the hospital and found a parking space at the entrance of the emergency department building.

Chen Er was still jet-lagged and fell asleep in the car.

Wang Yihua and Kevin got off the car one after the other. The hotel was not far away. Kevin planned to walk over directly. At this time, Wang Yihua called Pei Ye.

"Hi, hello, you are from the People's Hospital, right? Is there someone named Pei Ye in your emergency department, acute gastroenteritis, oh, the second floor, right?"

He was walking towards the emergency department while making a phone call, feeling anxious, so he didn't notice that the person behind him who was about to leave was looking at him in a daze—to be precise, he was looking at the emergency department building in front of him.

It had been an hour since Pei Ye was sent to the emergency room. Although his stomach was still unwell, the most uncomfortable time had passed.

He was half lying on the hospital bed, with the medicine in his hand, watching the medicine slowly flow down, while waiting for Wang Yihua to pick him up.

On the bed next to him was a man who was too drunk. He vomited all over the floor as soon as he was brought in. The room was filled with the smell of alcohol and sour food residue. The hanging bottle went out, planning to find another place to hang water.

But the emergency room was full at night, and there was no infusion area in the corridor, and Pei Ye walked around with the bottle and couldn't find a place.

I really can't but go back...

Just when Pei Ye was about to go back, someone called him from behind.

"Brother Pei!"

Wang Yihua waved at him anxiously.

Someone in the middle pushed the hospital bed and passed by, blocking the way.

Pei Ye turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw Wang Yihua at a glance. However, separated by many figures, his gaze involuntarily focused on another person behind Wang Yihua.

He searched for more than 2000 days and nights, and the person who had been in panic all day suddenly appeared in front of him.

There was no time to think in his mind, like a reflex engraved in his nerves, Pei also threw away the obstructing bottle and pulled out the needle, and stretched out his hand to push the crowd away, fearing that in the next second, he would fall into the abyss of disappointment again.

Seeing his tense expression and strange behavior, Wang Yihua grabbed him: "Where are you going? Are you okay? No—why did you pull out the needle?"

"I……"

Pei also opened his mouth, and subconsciously pointed at that person, but the familiar name stopped on his lips, and before he could say it, he felt his throat tighten.

When he couldn't find Zhou Ze, he would always comfort himself and think, if he really found him, what should he say in the first sentence, should he greet him casually, or should he ask him where he went?Why hide from yourself?

Maybe it was because he thought too much, but when something really happened, he didn't know how to face it.

Because all he thought about was what he would say and do, but he forgot to consider the other party.

What if he changed?

Wang Yihua turned around and was very surprised by the sudden appearance of Kevin: "Senior... why are you here? Are you uncomfortable?"

Pei Ye's Adam's apple rolled, and he was a little puzzled: "Senior?"

Wang Yihua nodded: "Yes, Wanwan's senior, a well-known artist, what is his name K..."

After K for a long time, he failed to say the English name, and instead asked the other party to remind him——

"Zhou Cho."

The man pronounced his name in a very calm voice.

As if worried that Wang Yihua would not understand, he rarely explained: "My Chinese name is Zhou Ze, the Zhou of the cycle, the choice of choice."

"Oh—you said it earlier, the English name is too difficult to pronounce." Wang Yihua said with emotion, "This is my friend, Pei Ye, and also... this one."

He stretched out his hand and drew two strokes in the air, trying to tell Zhou Ze which word it was.

Zhou Ze also responded quickly: "I know."

Of course he knew.

Pei Ye's eyes seemed to be glued to his face, and he refused to move away no matter what.

The first reaction is to lose weight.

Unlike six years ago, the bones of adults have matured and their muscles are stronger than before. The thinness at this time is not the good-looking thinness of a teenager.In addition to not having much meat, it is more of a sickness reflected in his complexion and temperament.

He is not having a good time.

This can only be seen with the eyes.

Pei also felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to bend his body, and in fact he did.

"Brother Pei! What's wrong with you?! Damn, don't scare me!"

Wang Yihua grabbed the person who was slowly sliding down the wall, and shouted for doctors and nurses in a panic, his whole body was like an ant on a hot pot, running around in a hurry.

Soon, Pei also lay on the hospital bed for the second time because of gastroenteritis.

Or from the emergency building was sent to the emergency room.

But this time he no longer had the strength to escape with the bottle, so he could only carry the water obediently.Fortunately, he was not assigned to the previous ward - the air here is very fresh.

Wang Yihua helped him pay the bill downstairs, and besides other patients, there were only him and Zhou Ze left in the ward.

The two were silent for a long time, not knowing who would speak first.

Zhou Ze sat on the edge of the bed without speaking, and seemed to be thinking about something with his head down.And it's not that Pei didn't want to say it, but he just felt uneasy in his heart. On the one hand, he was worried about all the falsehoods. As soon as he spoke, the dream would wake up, and on the other hand——

Maybe it's too "strange".

Whether it's Zhou Xuan or himself.

In six years, so much can change.

Pei Ye six years ago was a problematic student who was ignorant, a homeless orphan, and the elder brother of his cronies. It's the boss, it's the boss, and they have a good tongue at the wine table. They are used to being greeted and sent to the business field, and they are used to hearing compliments and praises.

He even learned to subconsciously think about how to use words and how to make sentences before speaking every sentence to make it sound good and achieve his goal.

Pei also found sadly that he couldn't apply the same habit to Zhou Ze.

What can you say to ease the tense relationship?

——Greetings as if nothing had happened, such as asking about the current situation, and then naturally transitioned to the previous ones, and after feeling a lot, everything will come naturally.

He couldn't act as if nothing had happened, and he couldn't speak frankly about the past.

Only greetings...

However, Zhou Ze suddenly frowned and said, "Is this how you take care of yourself?"

Pei also seems to have forgotten one more thing——

Time has never changed only him.
