Yao Zhixia, who had just been discharged from the hospital, was forced to welcome round after round of visits and return celebrations before he had time to rest himself.

The owner of the ship, Boss Liu, has always been guilty about Yao Zhixia's accident, so he came to visit with a large bag and a small bag, for this, Yao Zhixia is not only grateful, but also lucky, fortunately Boss Liu did not have any accidents, and he came back safely, otherwise the affectionate and righteous Boss Liu may have to feel guilty for a lifetime.

On the first day of the supermarket's rework, Yao Zhixia accepted the welcome ceremony of her colleagues under the purging of Liu Piaopiao, which made Yao Zhixia, who had not received much attention since she was a child, really uncomfortable.

Life is back on track, everything is like yesterday, but Yao Zhixia, who was reborn after the catastrophe, always felt that something was missing something in a corner of his heart.

Since she secretly went to see the unconscious Xue Rin that day, she no longer dared to let herself think about him recklessly, but whenever she saw the tall and thin back in the supermarket, her body would still quickly hide behind the shelves without obeying the call, and when she saw the other party's appearance clearly, she scolded herself for her unrealistic delusions.

----

Xue Rin, who had just recovered from a serious illness, had just arrived home, and although he refused Gong Yan's invitation to meet, he had to accompany him with a smile to receive Lin Jiashang and Lin Qingyu, the chairman of Dahua who came to visit him.

Lin Qingyu was still as elegant and decent as ever, but Xue Rin really couldn't raise the interest to talk to her about anything, and the visit ended hastily with dignity and pointedness.

finally survived the first day of business, and in the afternoon of the second day, Xue Rin lay on a bench in the yard to bask in the sun.

I don't know if it's because the sun is too strong, or if his body hasn't fully recovered, he always feels irritable and can't calm down.

Early this morning, Qi Hang, as usual, stood at the door and watched Xue Huaiyuan go to work, and when she turned around and walked to the living room, Xue Rin was lazily stretching down the stairs at this time.

Qi Hang looked at Xue Rin and suddenly remembered something, so he stopped him and asked him to wait for her in the living room.

Xue Rin squinted his sleepy eyes and nodded, and as soon as he fell over, he collapsed on the sofa, intending to sleep for a while.

After a while, he felt someone gently tapping him on the shoulder with his hand, and he "um" and twisted lazily on the sofa.

As soon as he raised his head, a delicate white jewelry box appeared in front of him, Xue Rin didn't know what it meant, and looked up at Qi Hang suspiciously.

Qi Hang smiled and didn't speak, just motioned with his eyes to open it himself, Xue Rin obviously felt that Qi Hang's smile at this time had a subtle sense of mystery.

He hesitantly opened the box, but was speechless by the object that greeted him.

It was the ring, and the drills he had been wearing in his ears, which were lying quietly on the black flannel.

It was obviously two cold objects with a hard texture, but at this time, they turned into a wisp of finger softness, and instantly attacked Xue Rin's unprepared state of mind, breaking through his originally peaceful city.

"This ......" Xue Rin's voice was a little hoarse, he frowned slightly, and his hand couldn't help touching his right ear.

"The doctor took it off during the first aid, handed it to me, and when I returned it to you, I thought it should be more decent, so I came with a box, I don't know...... It's not what you want. ”

Qi Hang originally knew that this ear drill that looked like Xue Rin's ear was his most precious thing, and she was careful and asked Xue Huaiyuan about the story of this ear drill many years ago.

Originally, she thought that this was just a commemoration of the boy's ignorance in adolescence, but she never thought that this was one of Xue Rin's specially selected relics from Chen Nuan's relics before going abroad and took it away.

Finding that his son was going home with swollen ears, Xue Huaiyuan, who didn't know why, was furious, but the next day, when he saw the shining ear drills on Xue Rin's pus-stained earlobe, he stopped talking.

This was the day before he and Chen Nuan went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate, and he took a long bus alone to the jewelry store in the city center to carefully select the wedding gift.

At that time, the two of them lived a life where they had to break even a dollar, even if they had the spirit of innovation and daring in their careers, Xue Huaiyuan was still a traditional man in his bones.

Although Chen Nuan kept saying that the best gift he gave her was for the two of them to endure hardships together, he still felt that a sense of ceremony, no matter how much money was spent, was essential, so the pair of ear drills was finally worn by him on Chen Nuan's earlobe.

"Thank you, Aunt Qi, I thought they were all lost. ”

Stroking the objects in the jewelry box, Xue Rin's heart was pulled together, but the pain at this time was wrapped in nameless tenderness.

He thought that he had no blood and no tears for a long time, but at this time, he seemed to be bathed in the white soft waves, and walked into the three women in his life one after another, and in this way, he escaped from the nightmare that had imprisoned him for many years.

A sudden ringing of the phone interrupted his tumultuous thoughts.

He picked up his phone and saw that it was Gong Yan again, so he tilted his head impatiently.

"The ghost doesn't go away. ”

But the bell just refused to give up, kept buzzing in his ears, he sighed, gritted his teeth and pressed the call button. "Hmm. ”

"Xue Rin, what are you doing?"

"Recuperate!"

"Raise a fart disease! You are a big man, what is that injury!"

"If there's a fart, let it go!"

"Come out to eat!

"You're not done! I'm not going!"

"Anyway, when you disappeared, I went to the search and rescue center every day to squat, and you just rewarded me like this!"

"I'm wrong, brother, I should have swam back by myself when I fell into the sea, I shouldn't have bothered you. ”

"Don't be poor with me! At 6 o'clock tonight, Langge, if you don't come, I will go to your house and personally invite you out. After Gong Yan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Xue Rin speechlessly threw his mobile phone on the grass next to the recliner, stretched out his two hands and rubbed them on his face, he closed his eyes, but suddenly some beautiful pictures appeared in front of him, like a memory, and like an illusion.

He was so frightened that he immediately opened his eyes, and there were words in his mouth: "Clean, pure, you are not a male dog in heat, Xue Rin, can you have some luck!"

Suddenly, the word "male dog" woke him up.

"Puff Pong!Ding Man! Those two unlucky bastards are still on the island!" Realizing this fact, Xue Rin immediately turned over and sat up.

----

At 6 o'clock in the evening, Xue Rin appeared at his and Gong Yan's old place on time, and it was still the front desk lady with a good temperament who led the way.

Walking into the door of the private room, Xue Rin was surprised to see Gong Yan, who usually didn't drink a drop of alcohol, holding a wine glass and pouring it into his mouth.

"What are you doing? Playing with broken love, you?"

Xue Rin had a big puzzle on his face, the last time he saw Gong Yan take the initiative to drink was when he was dumped by a Japanese girl when he was in college, he took a plane for several hours, and came to him to cry.

Gong Yan didn't respond, he picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine "dong dong", and threw the iPad on the table to Xue Rin, "Order your food!"

Xue Rin took the iPad and noticed a hint of strangeness, he pretended that nothing had happened, as if he was casually looking at the dishes on the screen, and secretly raised his eyes from time to time to observe the person opposite through the edge of the iPad.

"Look, I've never seen anyone drink!"

With a "snap", Gong Yan pressed the wine glass on the table.

Xue Rin lowered his head, flipped through the electronic menu with his fingers at will, and said disdainfully: "Hmph, I've never seen a stunned drunkard who pours a glass!"

After Xue Rin finished speaking, he pressed the service bell, and the waiter waiting outside the door immediately walked in respectfully.

"Hello, bring us a pot of tea, the kind that has a particularly good hangover effect!" Xue Rin finished speaking, and glanced at Gong Yan, whose face was already flushed.

"Yes, sir, please wait a minute. The waiter closed the door softly and walked out.

As if stimulated by Xue Rin's words, Gong Yan grabbed the wine glass and was about to refill himself, but was held by Xue Rin, who was quick-eyed.

Xue Rin leaned over to the table, a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, "Say!

"What kind of girl!" Gong Yan tilted his head, and wanted to withdraw his hand angrily.

"Is it buddy?" Xue Rin's eyes widened.

"Can you the stop asking!"

Gong Yan has always been calm and elegant, but the outburst at this moment startled Xue Rin, and he let go of his hand and scratched the hair on the back of his head.

"It's been so many years, buddy, why didn't you ever know that you had a habit of breaking your sleeves......" Xue Rin muttered in a low voice while scratching his hair.

"Xue Rin!" Gong Yan slammed the wine bottle on the table.

"Brain is a good thing! I don't think you're infected on the island, it's your brain that has been eaten!"

"Oh! Gong Yan, why are you still scolding the Venerable Master! This is the 21st century, the folk customs are simple and open, and we are new young people with higher education, what are you afraid of! Don't worry! Brother supports you! Ah! Godfather and godmother, I'll help you carry it!" Xue Rin patted his chest excitedly.

"Carry you ghost! How could Lao Tzu drink here for a stupid girl! It must be an illusion! It must be an illusion! It's a stress reaction!" Gong Yan muttered to himself angrily.

"Oh, I've got it, silly girl, which stupid girl!" Xue Rin stretched out his index finger and drew circles in front of Gong Yan, his eyes narrowing into a slit viciously.

Gong Yan looked away in annoyance, he knew that once he leaked his mouth, he would not be clean.

"Hey, don't you say it? Oh, I haven't come to see my godfather and godmother in the past few days! I'll go tomorrow, explain the recent situation, and report everything I have seen and heard......

"You dare to shake out my business, I can't spare you kid!" Gong Yan immediately became anxious when he heard Xue Rin's words.

"Be lenient in confession, and strict in resisting. Xue Rin crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking like he was watching a good show.

"You devil!"

"While I'm still an angel, hurry up, you haven't seen me turn into a devil!"

"It's nothing......

"Looks like something's wrong. ”

"I just met a friend. ”

"Girlfriend?"

"Female friends. ”

"Oh, my girlfriend who hasn't confessed yet. ”

"What a confession, I don't like her. ”

"Tut-tut, because I don't like her, you're drinking here, you're awesome!" Xue Rin nodded, giving a mocking thumbs up.

"It's not for her to drink......" Gong Yan retorted weakly.

"Dead duck ......" Xue Rin was quite disdainful of Gong Yan's hard mouth.

"Why the hell do you call me a duck!" Gong Yan heard the word "duck" and was reminded of the memories of that night, and his nerves were inevitably a little sensitive.

"Gong Yan, there's something wrong here! You two won't have anything inappropriate to be a child, right?"

"No! Nothing happened! You and Yao Zhixia are uncertain about their life and death, and she and I are mentally tortured every day, how can we have the heart to do anything else! You kid has to compensate me for my mental loss!"

As soon as Xue Rin heard the words "Yao Zhixia", his heart skipped a beat in an instant, and the emotions that he had originally hidden well only took a second, and he was drawn from the bottom of the kettle, which made him uneasy.

"That stupid girl knows Yao Zhixia?" Xue Rin frowned solemnly.

"Silly girl, can you call it!" Gong Yan obviously misplaced the point.

"I said, do you still have contact with her? does she know where Yao Zhixia is?"

"I haven't been looking for her since the last time I was in the hospital, and every day I think of her working in the supermarket just a stone's throw downstairs, and I don't have any reason to see her, and I feel very ......upset."

"She works in a supermarket, what about Yao Zhixia, are they colleagues?" Xue Rin grabbed Gong Yan's arm, eager to find out more about her.

"She told me before that Yao Zhixia also works in a supermarket, and they live together. ”

Xue Rin didn't ask any more, just thinking about something with empty eyes, and the hand holding Gong Yan slowly let go.

Gong Yan himself was so upset that he couldn't help it, and he didn't have the heart to care about Xue Rin.

A sudden knock on the door broke the silence, and the waiter walked in with a large plate.

"Steamed grouper, please use slowly. ”

Gong Yan raised his chopsticks and was about to clip them, but suddenly felt very surprised, "Don't you never eat fish?

"If you suddenly want to try something new, just order it. Xue Rin casually picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine.

Gong Yan didn't think much about it, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed them towards the fish's belly, but was held in the air by another pair of chopsticks, Gong Yan raised his head in confusion.

"You don't eat the right food, you have to start with the tail. ”

"Who said that, don't they all say that fish belly meat is the most tender?"

"But the order can't be wrong, oh, you taste the meat on the tail, it's alive, it's delicious!" Xue Rin said and took a piece of fish meat from the tail and put it on Gong Yan's plate.

Gong Yan looked at Xue Rin suspiciously, always feeling that this kid was blinding himself, but he couldn't say why he did this, so he had to obediently put the fish meat in his mouth.

"How's it going?

It was rare for Xue Rin to have such a serious look now, so Gong Yan didn't know how to answer, so he had to close his mouth and chew while nodding perfunctorily.

Isn't that anything special?

After the meal was over, Gong Yan wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin and said, "Hey, but seriously, the day after tomorrow and weekend, do you want to come to my house for a meal, my mother and my father are at home, and we haven't been together since you were discharged from the hospital!"

"I can't go the day after tomorrow, I want to go to sea, and I will definitely take the initiative to visit my godfather and godmother in two days. Xue Rin picked up the wine bottle and added some wine to Gong Yan's cup.

"Go to sea?Xue Rin, haven't you had enough fun surviving on the desert island?," Gong Yan's eyes widened in shock.

"No, I rented a helicopter, I have something left on the island and I want to go and get it back. Xue Rin calmly took a bite of food.

"What, big brother, you accidentally ended up on a desert island, not on vacation, where did you get something on the island?" Gong Yan couldn't believe his ears.

"You don't care about it, think about how to solve your lovesickness!" Xue Rin sneered.

"I'll tell you, you like to toss and toss, but don't tell my parents about it. Gong Yan was afraid that Xue Rin, who didn't keep the door, would leak the news.

"What's the matter?, are you in trouble?" Xue Rin pretended to be confused.

"I ...... I...... I don't have anything, I'm very good, now is the rising period of my career, who has the heart to talk about love, love, children's tricks. Gong Yan unconsciously scratched his nose with his hand.

"That's right, if you don't work hard, you'll have to go home and be forced to inherit the family property! Work hard, Director Gong!" Xue Rin echoed with a smile.

----

After dinner, Liu Piaopiao stood in front of the sink in the kitchen to wash the dishes and chopsticks, while Yao Zhixia sat on the carpet in front of the coffee table, looking down and reading a book while taking notes carefully.

"Sister Zhixia, the exam is still two weeks away, do you feel sure?"

Liu Piaopiao saw that Yao Zhixia would study late every day these days, and she must have worked hard to get the translation qualification certificate.

"It's hard to say whether I can pass the test or not, but I have tried my best and tried it, no matter what the result is, there will be a corresponding answer, there is nothing to regret. Yao Zhixia lowered her head, and the pen in her hand did not stop.

"If you pass the exam, you can work part-time as a translator in the future, and maybe you won't have to be a tally clerk anymore. Liu Piaopiao wiped the apron in front of her and walked into the living room.

"I don't want this extravagance, I just want to complete a regret when I was in school, and I also want to prove it to myself, even if I Yao Zhixia is overpressed by fate, there will be a moment when I will be lifted up again. ”

Yao Zhixia smiled after speaking, a hearty laugh suddenly echoed in her mind, she immediately realized that her old mistake had been committed again, so she swallowed her saliva hard, straightened her waist, put her hand in her hair and pressed the top of her head, reminding herself to return to concentration.

"Sister Zhixia, come on! I believe you will do it! Hey! That's right, what did the search and rescue team say?" Liu Piaopiao suddenly remembered the two cats and dogs that Yao Zhixia had been talking about on the island since he returned home.

"Hey, don't mention it, when the search and rescue team heard that I was going to take them back, they didn't want to send anyone to look for them, they said that when they rescued us, they took a lot of effort to get rid of the fluffy puff who had been screaming around us, and now they naturally don't want to care about it anymore. ”

After Yao Zhixia came back, he was always worried about the safety of the two little guys, but he didn't have the ability to find them.

"That Xue Rin, who was rescued with you, isn't his family quite rich and powerful? If you go to him for help, maybe he can help you, right? After all, he is also a person who has been in trouble together!"

"He can't!" Yao Zhixia had been careful not to think of the name again, but when she heard the name, she was still timid.

"What's not to do? Is he so indifferent?" Liu Piaopiao sat cross-legged on the sofa.

"He's not indifferent at all! It's just, it's just that we don't know each other well, it's just that we're in trouble together, so how can he have any reason to help me with this?"

Yao Zhixia said this, not only for Liu Piaopiao, but also to remind herself.

"Oh, well, I thought you two were friends!"

"Well, let's not talk about it, I studied. ”

Yao Zhixia's gaze returned to the words in the book, but the letters that were originally arranged in an orderly manner turned into a bunch of garbled characters due to her distraction at this time.
