When Lin Jiaming came out of the hospital, it was already past 10 o'clock. There were 4 stitches for the wound on the head, plus a slight concussion. Now that the mobile phone is gone, I need to buy a mobile phone, make up a card, and contact Gu Kai and them at night. Although it is already autumn, it is not yet the time when autumn is cool, and the sun at 10 o'clock in the morning is still a little scorching, which makes Lin Jiaming's head hurt.

Fortunately, the municipal planning of X city is relatively convenient, and the entrance of each subway is very close to the main public institutions. Following the flow of people, Lin Jiaming got on the subway to the city center.

In the mobile business hall, Lin Jiaming inserted the repaired card into the newly bought mobile phone, and soon after turning it on, many text messages reminded him. It's all missed call reminders, it was Kaizi who called, and Lin Jiaming called back.

"Kaizi, what's wrong?"

"Jiaming, what are you doing? The phone is also turned off!" Gu Kai was a little accusatory.

"It's hard to say, let's talk when we meet!" Thinking of last night's incident and the faintly painful injury, Lin Jiaming's face was a wry smile.

"Well, I want to talk to you too. Where are you, I'll pick you up. Gu Kai's tone was sad, but also a little firm.

"I was in the city center. The mobile main business hall is this. ”

"I'm also nearby, I'll be there soon!" Gu Kai hung up the phone.

Lin Jiaming picked up his mobile phone and logged on WeChat, and there were also many messages to be checked, most of which were sent by Ou Cheng. roughly explained the matter between Gu Kai and Xiao Jie. Lin Jiaming read Ou Cheng's news, and couldn't help but feel a trace of worry in his heart. With his understanding of Gu Kai, I am afraid that it will not be very smooth to solve the matter between him and Xiaojie this time.

Within a few minutes, Gu Kai's car arrived at the door of the business hall. Lin Jiaming opened the car door, got in the car, and glanced at Gu Kai who was driving next to him. Apparently in a very poor state, his hair was a little messy, as if he had brushed his hands casually after washing, his face was also very pale, and his eyes were bloodshot. Lin Jiaming has never seen such a state before. His worries about this good brother were even worse.

"What's the matter with you, in such a bad state?" Lin Jiaming asked.

"I didn't sleep all night last night!Where are you going?" Gu Kai's answer convinced Lin Jiaming that the things he had agreed with Ou Cheng today would not go in a good direction.

"Pull over, stop!" Lin Jiaming's tone was very appreciative, with a hint of command.

Gu Kai leaned aside, Lin Jiaming got out of the car and walked to the side of the cab.

"Get out of here!" Gu Kai naturally knew what Lin Jiaming meant. Hands let go of the steering wheel and climbed to the passenger seat. Both of them sat down, and Gu Kai found the gauze wrapped around Lin Jiaming's head. Just on the other side, didn't see it.

"What's the matter with you?"

"It's okay, I chased a thief last night and was injured in the fight!"

"Chasing thieves, are you so heroic, are you going to be a savior?" Gu Kai sarcastically said, he knew that Lin Jiaming did such a thing as chasing thieves on the street, and he was the kind of guy who was righteous and awe-inspiring in his bones.

"No, I was met with a thief at home last night. A mobile phone was also stolen. Lin Jiaming's explanation made Gu Kai stunned.

"Look, I'll just tell you to rent an apartment next to your company, but you still don't listen! The village you live in now is too chaotic for anyone to take care of. Except for the cheaper rent, there is really nothing good about it!" Gu Kai complained that Lin Jiaming didn't listen to his advice, and he was also angry about what happened to this brother who had been together since childhood.

"Did you call the police? Gu Kai asked again!

"No, forget it, there is no big loss, and there is no monitoring in the village, so it is very difficult to investigate! Judging from the figure of the thief, it should not be very old. Lin Jiaming waved his hand.

"We two brothers, we really share hardships..."Gu Kai said with a wry smile.

"Anyway, what's wrong with you? You're terminally ill? Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai joked, and they never shied away from anything.

"Get out! You're terminally ill! Where are you going?" Gu Kai replied.

"In the People's Park, there is a big artificial lake!

The two stopped talking and didn't sleep all night, and Gu Kai dozed off in the co-pilot. At noon on weekends, the city center is still congested. Most of them are young couples who are out shopping, with boyfriends carrying various paper bags in their hands, and girls holding their mobile phones in one hand while pointing at the products in the windows on both sides of the road.

After more than 20 minutes, I finally arrived at People's Park. Lin Jiaming parked the car and woke up Gu Kai. The two got out of the car and walked to the artificial lake in the middle of the park, but they didn't say anything all the way.

There aren't a lot of people playing in the park. In this era of fast-paced city life, few people spend their time in the park. Not far from the gate, there is a forest. To get to the artificial lake, you have to cross a winding boulevard. Unknown trees on both sides of the road, with brown branches and light purple leaves, weave into a curved promenade, embracing the lonely people of the city.

Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai arrived at the lake and sat on the bench. The two remained silent.

"Jiaming, I saw it!" Gu Kai opened his mouth first.

"What?"

"That day, I passed by her school and saw at the door that she hugged a man!" Gu Kai's voice was a little hoarse.

"Did you ask her about this?" asked Lin Jiaming.

"Yes, I called her and she said she was with her best friend. I confessed that I was at the gate of her school and she saw me. ”

"I saw her running towards me, I wanted to drive away, but my feet didn't obey and I couldn't move!" Speaking of this, Gu Kai choked up again. When she got in the car, she apologized vigorously, but I didn't listen to a word. Dropping her off at home, I went downstairs on my own. ”

"Haven't you been back since?" Lin Jiaming didn't know how to comfort this sunny brother in the past, at this time, maybe silence was the best way.

"No, I've been staying in a hotel these days! I don't know how to face her, I'm afraid I'll do something irrational on impulse. Gu Kai is deeply in love with Xiaojie, but he is affectionate, and he can't withstand the blow in that scene.

"Why don't you listen to her?"

"I also thought that maybe I was mistaken, but I thought back to some of her abnormalities during this time. Sometimes she would reply messages with her back to me, and she would run to the balcony to answer the phone, and I couldn't calm myself down to listen to her explanations. ”

"Then what are you going to do?" Lin Jiaming wanted to ask Gu Kai if he was ready to break up, but the words came to his lips and swallowed back.

"I don't know, I just want to talk to someone!" In this matter, Lin Jiaming couldn't suggest anything, after all, only both parties know whether the relationship is good or bad.

They talked a lot at the lake. There is the bitterness in Kaizi's relationship and the ups and downs in Lin Jiaming's work, but in this diverse and inclusive modern city, these two people have a double sense of drift.

A gust of wind blew, and the weeping willows by the lake swayed one after another, and a few yellow willow leaves fell into the lake lightly, dotting out a burst of ripples and slowly spreading.

Unconsciously, the two fell asleep slightly against the bench. When I woke up, it was dusk.

"Let's go, last bar!" Lin Jiaming booked two rooms near the bar, knowing that he and Kaizi would get drunk tonight.

When they arrived at the bar, Ou Cheng and Xiaojie were already sitting at the table last time. Ou Cheng saw the injury on Lin Jiaming's head and wanted to ask something, but it finally stopped between his lips and teeth. And Gu Kai looked at Xiao Jie next to Ou Cheng, and couldn't help but feel distressed. It can be seen that she has not been having a good time recently, her face is also very pale, she has no makeup, and her two big eyes are much darker.

"Hello, two cases of beer!" Lin Jiaming said to the waiter at the bar.

Ou Cheng and Xiao Jie were stunned for a moment, and finally didn't say anything.

After the wine came up, Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai each opened the wine in their own boxes and placed it on the table, and the two of them bent their elbows in front of their chests and shook them, as if they were about to break their wrists. Then they shouted together, "it, brother!" This was the ritual when the two of them were drinking together in high school. Usually this ritual means that the two will not get drunk or return.

There were still not many people in the bar. Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai's wine bottles kept colliding, and Xiao Jie and Ou Cheng next to them were drinking the drinks in the cups, and they couldn't dissuade them from such a situation. In the blink of an eye, the wine on the table was more than half empty. Gu Kai began to cry hysterically, and Xiao Jie next to him couldn't help but hug Gu Kai, crying and saying that he was wrong. Looking at such a scene, Lin Jiaming knew that his goal had almost been achieved, tilted his head, closed his eyes, and dried the wine in the bottle alone. Ou Cheng watched Lin Jiaming's Adam's apple keep moving, and at that moment, there was a trace of distress across his face.

"I forgive you!" Gu Kai suddenly stood up and said to Xiao Jie in a determined tone.

Lin Jiaming and Ou Cheng were stunned. Gu Kai's decision was unexpected by Lin Jiaming, with Gu Kai's character, he couldn't forgive this kind of almost betrayal behavior, but it was also expected, with Gu Kai's feelings for Xiaojie, Lin Jiaming would not be surprised by what he did!

"I stumbled towards you, and you can't leave alone..."The background music of the bar made Gu Kai and Xiaojie hug even tighter.

At the end of the scene, it was late at night, Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai supported each other and staggered in front, while Xiaojie held Ou Cheng and slowly followed behind. When they arrived at the hotel, Lin Jiaming and Gu Kai slept in one room, and Xiaojie and Ou Cheng slept next door.

Outside the hotel, the street lamps glowed yellow, and the late-night wind blew off some of the leaves of the plane trees and scattered them on the sidewalk...

In the deep night sky, the background music of the bar echoes. "We hugged each other desperately, leaving no room for loneliness. Powerlessness is our inevitable end in the end..."
