Chapter 3 "It's useless to ask for it, pay it back." ”
- How come it's only been seven years?
- What about her parents?
- Can the person in front of you believe it?
Jiang Chi didn't stop her movements, but when his eyes fell on Zhou Yimo's pale face, he looked a little worried, and he said slowly in the excited voice of the host in the variety show: "Shuangshi and his wife both remarried last year, and this variety show is your favorite variety show in college, so I downloaded it." ”
"You're 27 years old this year, I'm 29 years old, and we're not young anymore......"
Hearing him say this, Zhou Yimo interrupted him and said, "You don't have to say it, I won't believe you, even if what you say may be true...... But to me, you're a stranger, and I don't have any memories of you in my head, so no matter how much you say, it's hard for me to feel a sense of substitution. ”
"The only people I believe in now are my parents, and I haven't even seen them in person in the past six months, let alone heard you mention them. Zhou Yimo seemed to have found a vine in the dark, and climbing along it could also give her direction, "You install a monitor in the room, restrict my access, and you never even use your mobile phone when you get home, and I can't even control my behavior...... I'm leaving, and what you're doing and this place is making me feel very insecure. ”
Zhou Yimo's voice was like a selling hammer that fell three times on the auction floor, temporarily sealing the coffin of the relationship between the two and making a conclusion.
Thinking of something, she stared at Jiang Chi's face again, her expression condensed, "Now the phone is in your hand, unless you ...... now Allows me to talk to my parents on the phone. ”
Jiang Chi squirmed his lips, and finally didn't say anything.
Looking at each other speechlessly, Jiang Chi took the lead in breaking the silence, his eyes lowered, and the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, "I'm sorry." ”
Then he pulled up a photo from his mobile phone and showed it in front of her - the two young people in the picture were interlocked, the girl was smiling like a flower, her pale pupils showed an amber luster in the sun, and the boy's smile was restrained and gentle, and his eyes were sincere, he was dressed in a light blue uniform, and he had a face exactly the same as Jiang Chi.
"You're a policeman?!" Zhou Yimo looked at him in disbelief, and said, "Then you still do this kind of thing?!"
When Jiang Chi heard those two words, his body stiffened, and the vertical lines between his eyebrows increased a little, "It's not anymore." ”
"Yimo, it's too late, I can let you talk to your parents on the phone at noon tomorrow and take you to meet them, how about it?" Jiang Chi proposed a new way to solve the embarrassing situation of the two.
Zhou Yimo was silent, she repeatedly told herself, maybe the photo was P's, she only believed her parents now, she could find Jiang Chi 10,000 reasons for the perjury he presented.
To put it bluntly, she doesn't want to believe this person in the blank area of her memory at all.
So she replied to Jiang Chi very simply, "No, I want to leave here." ”
Jiang Chi's expression became obscure for a moment, but when his gaze touched the blood-soaked gauze on Dao Zhou Yimo's hand, the corners of his slightly opened mouth suddenly froze.
This silent attitude made Zhou Yimo's heart chill, but he didn't expect him to say next, "The door lock is fingerprint unlocked, I can help you open it, but I have a small request." ”
Zhou Yimo looked him up and down, but he didn't expect that he still had room to negotiate conditions, so he asked him to put forward his own requirements first.
"Make me clear noodle soup, the kind your mother used to make for you. ”
Jiang Chi's expression seriously made this somewhat ridiculous request, and at this moment, Zhou Yimo felt that the person in front of him overlapped with the upright and sunny young man in the photo.
Zhou Yimo's heart jumped, his eyes stayed on his face, and he was a little puzzled, what does this mean?
He shouldn't be lying, Zhou Yimo couldn't tell who gave her this bold idea, but she still nodded and walked to the kitchen.
The clear soup noodles are delicious, she didn't eat well during the day, and she planned to add some food to herself, so in addition to the small rape, she also put a few more slices of smoked sausages, and lay two poached eggs into the pot, and this thin layer of crystal oil floated on the soup noodles.
The noodles were divided into two bowls, and two pairs of chopsticks were also taken.
Jiang Chi smelled the familiar taste of noodles, and his heart was full of thoughts, and his memories were far away.
Until Zhou Yimo put a handful of minced garlic in front of him.
"Eating your cooking, that's how I'm feeling. ”
Zhou Yimo took his slightly frightened expression as a snack, and he held another bowl of noodles and sucked it up, eating it temptingly.
Jiang Chi, "......"
Zhou Yimo pulled the noodles and side dishes clean, and was about to swallow the soup when he saw that he hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, and said, "Eat!
Jiang Chi, "......"
A bowl of clear soup noodles ironed Zhou Yimo's stomach, she casually threw the dirty bowl into the kitchen sink, and seeing that Jiang Chi didn't mean to eat, she directly raised her chin and motioned him to open the door.
It's just that Zhou Yimo's eyes still leaked a little nervousness and defense.
She was afraid that this person would not be able to speak.
But Jiang Chi slowly walked to the door, just as he promised her during the day that she would "come back early", holding the doorknob with his right hand and turning, a trace of blue light flashed - the door opened.
Zhou Yimo didn't even look at him, she pushed the door open directly, and walked out quickly wearing slippers, but before she could take two steps, the figure paused, and after about two or three seconds, she turned around and saw a tall man looking at her.
In the dark, even if he couldn't see his face, Zhou Yimo could feel the lonely aura emanating from his body, just like in the study in the afternoon.
Zhou Yimo suddenly felt a trace of indescribable awkwardness in her heart, this person was too quiet, she took out the mobile phone pinned to the waistband of her trousers, gently threw it on Jiang Chi's body, and whispered, "It's useless to pay you back." ”
This time, she didn't hesitate to turn away.
Jiang Chi raised his eyelids and looked quietly, his eyes were pitch black, until Zhou Yimo's back completely disappeared into the night.
When Zhou Yimo left the villa, it was almost half past three in the morning, she thought that she would have to work very hard to find the "human population" from a dark wood, but she didn't expect that she walked along the stone path at the door for about a hundred meters, and saw a downhill asphalt road, and there were log piles full of forest atmosphere on both sides of the road.
Smelling the smell of Xia Lu steaming in the sultry heat, Zhou Yimo, who was standing on the asphalt road, was covered by the woods, and observed from the perspective of higher terrain, she saw neon lights flashing in the distance, everything was so familiar and unfamiliar.
Zhou Yimo paused, she seemed to know where this was, she ran in slippers in the direction of the downhill road, and the soles of the shoes slapped on the ground with a "popping" sound - this is Changqingshan, their family comes to camp almost every year, and they can overlook the most beautiful appearance of Yan City.
It's just that the lights in Yan City seem to be more and more beautiful, and you can faintly see several new high-rise buildings, she ran all the way, and her eyes noticed that the street lamps here seemed to be renovated, with solar energy storage panels on the tall iron poles, and wind fans!
It's an amazing feeling, like when you revisit your alma mater after nearly 10 years of elementary school, you wonder if you didn't have this thing when you were in school!
Familiar and unfamiliar.
If she's not mistaken, there's a free payphone not far from her!
In fact, Zhou Yimo was not sure whether the phone booth was still there, so she ran for almost three hundred meters, and was stunned when she saw the service kiosk like a mini convenience store in front of her, she walked in and saw some vending machines, and a touch screen that was scrolling with the words "Changqingshan Trekking Trail A1 Area Service Kiosk, we will help you at any time you need it!" and other words.
She clicked on the phone icon that was beating on the screen, pressed her mother's phone number quickly, and her eyes were blank on the time of the screen beating, and her heart beat faster.
- Got through!
Zhou Yimo's heart was relieved, and she answered the phone quickly, your daughter is dying.
Zhou Yimo's mother, Li Peipei, is a high school geography teacher who has been a class teacher for a long time, and her mobile phone is basically not turned off 24 hours a day.
Finally—
"Hey, how are you?" The female voice on the phone was a little tired, but it was clear and calm, and the familiarity made Zhou Yimo want to cry, "Mom——! it's me, I'm Zhou Yimo, I'm in Changqingshan!
The person on the other side of the phone interrupted Zhou Yimo's words, and his voice was extremely indifferent.
"Who are you?"
When she was about to say something to her mother, an irresistible sleepiness suddenly hit her, and before her vision gradually dimmed, she saw that the time displayed on the screen changed from 03:34 to 03:35.
At the same time, the two-story villa in the Changqingshan Special Development Zone, in the living room.
The wound in Jiang Chi's palm has been treated, the chaotic first-aid supplies have been thrown aside at random, the blood stains on the back of his white hand that have not been wiped clean are very obvious, and now he is taking a pair of chopsticks to pick up the pasted noodles, shaking off the minced garlic, frowning and sending it to his mouth.
The mobile phone next to him suddenly lit up, Jiang Chi casually waved a gesture on the screen, and a human voice came from there.
"The person found it, I told you not to do this, you see when it will be my turn to persuade you?!There are too many unpredictable things in her, but you have to force her to wake her up, and be patient and wait for her to gradually recover her memory, isn't it?" The person on the other end of the phone spoke very quickly, his tone was anxious and irritable, but there was a hint of helplessness, "If my plane back to China today is accidentally delayed, how can you explain to Zhou Yimo and her parents?!"
"Zhixing, I injured her again, and Zhou Yimo bleed a lot. Jiang Chi didn't answer his question, he tried to ignore the itchy skin reaction on his body, frowned and took another big bite, heard the sound on the other end of the phone, and said, "I'm very uncomfortable." ”
As his words fell, a ripple rippled on the surface of the bowl of noodle soup that had long since been cold.
