"Did you see Cheng Woo?"
It's just that the little clerk who happened to pass by looked at the person who stopped him, and the eyebrows on his familiar face were tangled, and the little clerk stared for a long time before he reacted, isn't this person in front of him the celebrity in front of the big boss recently. Realizing this, the little clerk smiled and pointed in a certain direction.
"Brother Chen, Brother Yu just went over there. ”
Bai Xingchen's face was full of displeasure when he turned around.
Obviously, there will be important things for a while, but now at this point, what are you running around?
He frowned and walked in the direction pointed by the person he had just met, down the elevator, through the long corridor, until he walked out of the building, he saw Cheng Woo through the glass window.
He turned his back to himself, and in the vacant place in front of him, there seemed to be a petite person, Bai Xingchen was about to walk over to take a closer look, but he saw Cheng Yu's hand raised.
Then gently rubbed the head of the person in front of him, Bai Xingchen stopped in surprise, you must know that Cheng Yu is famous for keeping himself clean in the circle.
When he was still in place, Cheng Yu had already retracted the affectionate look he had just made, pushing the other party's shoulder, looking like he was urging the other party to leave.
Bai Xingchen simply stood with his arms folded and looked at them with interest, how long have they met, and they have to drive people away, this Cheng Yu, it doesn't look simple.
He looked through the glass just in time to see the girl's face as she turned sideways. Some babies have fat faces, short hair and big eyes, and are wearing ordinary white T-shirts and jeans, which are not cute, but they do look very fresh.
Bai Xingchen silently watched the girl walk away with his arms crossed, and when Cheng Yu saw the other party leave, he pushed open the glass door and walked in with some disdain, he deliberately spoke:
"Girlfriend? Hiding a little deep?"
Cheng Yu was obviously taken aback by him, his face turned pale, but he quickly adjusted back, and when he spoke, he was also in his usual calm tone:
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
***
In the silence of the mountains, there was a sudden burst of fire. The only flat space in the woods surrounded by many trees is now a small fire.
The light of the fire stretched the figures of the two people sitting around for a long time, and if you looked closely, they were covered in dust, tired, and even had large and small wounds on their faces.
"Just now, thank you. ”
Cheng Yu raised his eyes to look at the bleeding gauze on Bai Xingchen's shoulder, and took a stick to stir the fire in front of him, with some joy on his face for the rest of his life, and some gratitude mixed with complicated feelings.
After all, the relationship between him and Bai Xingchen has always been neither salty nor light, but he didn't expect to encounter danger when he went out to do errands this time, obviously there was no pressure to protect himself, but he also took the risk to bring himself out, and for a while, his mood was a little complicated.
"If you come out together, will it be that only half of them will go back? This time, I really didn't expect that the bunnies would be left behind, and they would almost be folded in their hands. ”
Bai Xingchen lit the cigarette with the fire in the fire as he spoke, then touched his pocket, took out something and threw it into Cheng Yu's arms:
"I saw that you are usually quite precious, so I picked it up for you. ”
Cheng Yu looked down, it was a wallet, and it was something he never left his body, and the reason why he never left his body was nothing else. He flipped through the mezzanine and looked at the photos that were still intact, and his heart settled down a little.
"I can't see it, you're quite infatuated with your girlfriend. ”
The joking voice sounded in his ears, and Gao Yu naturally knew what the other party was talking about, and the corners of his mouth raised:
"It's my sister. ”
Bai Xingchen paused, then nodded:
"It's still hidden deep enough, but none of us have any secrets. ”
***
In the cramped factory, with the figure of a person running, a group of people chased in.
Seeing that he was forced into a corner, Cheng Yu kicked over a few material buckets and ran towards another exit he was familiar with, but he didn't think about it, just when he stepped out of the door, another group of oncoming people surrounded him tightly.
The sunlight outside the door was dazzling, and he couldn't see people clearly under the backlight, he could only see a faint figure, in a group of people, a figure walked in, slightly fat, and spoke in a gentle voice when standing but hiding an inexplicable murderous aura.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that there are still people who are lying on the salary and hiding their guts, and I can be regarded as mistaking you. ”
Gao Yecheng looked at Cheng Yu who was like a trapped beast in a cage so calmly, with regret in his eyes, and more anger.
Behind him, Bai Xingchen stood silently, his eyes on Gao Yu.
The other party also keenly caught his eyes, and looked at him, the two looked at each other for a short time, but Bai Xingchen clearly felt the begging in his eyes, and the determination to break the boat.
After getting along for a long time, the tacit understanding between the two is enough for Bai Xingchen to know what Cheng Yu is thinking now, his heart seems to be suddenly tightened, and he stares at Cheng Yu who has taken two steps back nervously, under the reflection of light, from his angle, he can clearly see that there seems to be something reflective in the other party's hand.
Just as Cheng Yu rushed towards Gao Yecheng, he looked at Bai Xingchen, and there were too many things mixed in at a glance, and Bai Xingchen closed his eyes.
"Bang"
The deafening sound of gunfire was close to his ears, Bai Xingchen suddenly opened his eyes, but found that the picture in his eyes had completely changed, the light blue wallpaper, the curtains by the window were blown by the wind, and the breeze blew on his face.
Bai Xingchen covered his eyes, how could he dream again.
He reached into his pocket, fumbled for a while, and pulled out a photograph.
The person in the photo is smiling brightly, his eyebrows and eyes are crooked, just like Ji Ran when he was young, and the person standing next to her is the person who is called Cheng Yu in his dream, to be precise, it should be Ji Kaiyu.
He lied, in fact, he knew Ji Kaiyu, and the two could even be said to be friends of life and death. And he can be said to be the only person who knew Ji Ran's existence in the years when Ji Kaiyu hid his identity.
Bai Xingchen looked at the photo for a long time, and then seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and put it away. He got up from the sofa, put on his slippers, and walked slowly to the locked room belonging to Ji Kaiyu as if he had a thousand pounds in one step.
After a moment's hesitation, he took out the key he had hidden last night, slowly opened the door, and walked in.
***
Ji Ran always felt that he had forgotten something today, and when he was about to get home, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have picked up someone.
I'm used to living alone, and I'm used to it, I don't know if Bai Xingchen has already eaten at such a late hour, or if he is still waiting for himself stupidly.
Looking at him, he shouldn't be so stupid, no, Bai Xingchen is not familiar with this side, and he doesn't have a key, is there anything else to eat at home?
The more Ji Ran thought about it, the more entangled he felt, just looking at the elevator in front of him, he simply didn't want to.
No matter, let's go out later.
When she opened the door with the idea of going out with something, she heard the sizzling sound of stir-frying that would not be worn out in her own house at all, and the hoarse and deadly sound of the machine running when the old man coughed like a dying old man on the range hood.
How can this thing still work?
After Ji Ran came up with such an idea, he immediately felt that something was wrong, this... Could it be Bai Xingchen?
She walked suspiciously to the kitchen, and stayed in the moment when she saw the busy figure with her apron tied.
In the rumbling operation of the range hood, I saw Bai Xingchen with a calm face, busy with the things in his hands in an orderly manner, hot oil, putting ingredients, flipping, all in one go, Ji Ran even felt some artistic taste from his movements.
"Coming back?"
Bai Xingchen had already heard the figure of Ji Ran walking in, and took advantage of the gap in his hand, waved his hand to disperse the smoke between the two, turned his head, and smiled softly.
Ji Ran was touching his chin, and suddenly heard Bai Xingchen's words, and was stunned, how could this sound so similar to what a housewife and man were waiting for his wife to come home said.
She was taken aback by this thought, and the hand that was originally touching her chin instantly felt a little embarrassed, and she laughed dryly, and blurted out the words in her mouth:
"Are you waiting for me?"
Bai Xingchen seemed to not expect her to ask this, his eyes widened, and then he laughed again:
"Of course. ”
"Uh... Do you need my help?"
Ji Ran was extremely embarrassed now, and this conversation made her feel as if it was ambiguous, and she hurriedly opened the topic.
"No, you just have to wait. ”
Ji Ran really didn't have the courage to face Bai Xingchen's eyes that were smiling beautifully now, he half-hung his head, answered in a low voice, and retreated from the kitchen.
As soon as he walked out, Bai Xingchen heard her figure again, and when he turned his head, Ji Ran poked out half of his head from behind the door, cleared his throat, and pointed to the buzzing range hood:
"It's an old antique, you should be careful. ”
Seeing Bai Xingchen turn his head, Ji Ran thought about it and added:
"I'm definitely not questioning your skills."
"Got it. ”
The words that he wanted to explain were stuck in his throat, and facing Bai Xingchen's smiling face, Ji Ran let out a dry "oh", this time he really walked out.
As soon as he sat down on the sofa, the mobile phone rang, Ji Ran looked at Jiang Qiu's name on the screen, and pressed the answer button.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
"Have you gotten off work, have you made an appointment at the old place?" Xia Xia, Ding Cheng is here, we're going to pick you up now?"
The four-person party has really become more and more rare in the past few years, Ji Ran just wanted to agree, but suddenly thought of Bai Xingchen, who was busy in the kitchen, and the words in his mouth unconsciously turned a corner.
"Forget it, I have something to do today. ”
"Wow, this doesn't look like your style, it can't be, hide from us, some ulterior secrets. ”
"you," Ji Ran listened to Jiang Qiu's joking voice, although he subconsciously refuted it, he couldn't help but feel a little weak, and unconsciously looked in the direction of Bai Xingchen.
"Just have fun, ignore me, see you next time. ”
Dropping this sentence, Ji Ran cut off the phone.
She thought about it and walked to the door of the kitchen, looking at Bai Xingchen who was busy through the half-open door, but found that whether it was her slightly wet hair because of her busyness, or the cuffs that were rolled up, or even her waist that couldn't be seen with an apron, it was now extremely good-looking in her eyes.
What's wrong with you?
