32. Kiss
Chapter 32: The Kiss of the Cemetery
Although Lu Ze told Qiao Qiao to go home and change clothes later, and cook at home by the way, Qiao Qiao didn't want to discuss this kind of thing in front of the little junior sister who liked Lu Ze, so he still said, "Let's go to the door and talk about it." β
"Hmm." Lu Ze picked up his things and was about to go to the door with Qiaoqiao. This is obviously the conversation that she doesn't want people to hear, Chen Ting really feels very uncomfortable, even if she was rejected by Lu Ze in person as soon as she confessed a few years ago, but she has never given up, because Lu Ze is the same to everyone, but now he is different from others, obviously different, especially different, and even cooks for her, but that person still says that he is just an ordinary friend.
Standing near the glass door, Qiao Qiao didn't go out with Lu Ze, but stopped Lu Ze's steps and said, "Don't go out, it's windy outside, your clothes are soaked, be careful of catching a cold, just say it here." I'll invite you out for dinner, don't cook, how can you cook by yourself on your birthday, take it easy. β
"Don't you, please. I want to cook. "Lu Ze mainly wants to invite Qiao Qiao to his home, of course he won't agree.
Qiao Qiao's point is that she doesn't want to go to Lu Ze's house, it's too ambiguous......
"Today, I don't want to eat outside, I want to cook home-cooked food at home." Lu Ze stared at her with burning eyes, and knew very well how to impress Qiao Qiao with words and eyes.
Jojo was defeated, he said he wanted to be at home and wanted to eat home cooking. He must have been unaccompanied at home all this time. It's his birthday today.
"Then why don't you play badminton for a while?" Jojo compromised, just waiting for the expedited cake to celebrate his birthday.
"Why?" Lu Ze was strange.
Qiao Qiao thought that there was nothing to hide from him, and he could see it when it was delivered in a while, and he was not surprised by him in advance, and said, "I ordered a cake, and it will have to be delivered in about half an hour." β
Lu Ze looked at her, hesitated for a while, and said, "Let's go to the supermarket to buy ingredients first, and let them put the cake in the stadium, the front desk will collect it, and we'll come back to pick it up later." β
"Don't, it just so happens that your classmates are here, singing you a birthday song together."
"No, let's go." Lu Ze pushed the door out with his things.
"Then say hello to them before leaving." Jojo called out to him.
"No, let's go." Lu Ze held on to the door and waited for her to come out.
Qiao Qiao looked back, she went over alone and said that it was strange that we were leaving, these were all Lu Ze's classmates and not hers.
"It's okay, they're used to it." Lu Ze was still holding on to the door and waiting for her. These classmates came to Lu Ze to play here when they had nothing to do, and sometimes asked him out to play other sports, so they had long been used to his style. They also knew Lu Ze's personality, but they just thought that Lu Ze was not here today, so they brought their little junior sister over, but they didn't expect to bump into Lu Ze and Qiao Qiao here.
"Okay, let's get to the car." Jojo followed, afraid that he would be blown cold from sweating.
Lu Ze drove to find a supermarket, the two got out of the car to go shopping, Lu Ze pushed the shopping cart and walked beside Qiaoqiao, picked up the ingredients and lowered his head to ask her what she liked to eat.
Jojo used a "casual" kill on him.
Hearing Qiaoqiao say casually, Lu Ze asked her, "Is it good to eat hot pot?" β
Since Qiaoqiao likes boiled fish, of course she loves Sichuan dishes, including hot pot, so she naturally nodded. A cart basket of vegetables, meat, seafood, fish fillets, and small balls was put into a cart, and Qiaoqiao rummaged through it and said, "It's too much, right?" The two of them couldn't finish eating. β
Lu Ze replied: "It's okay." You can burn whatever you like. Are you going to drink? He remembered that Jojo liked to drink fruit wine, and they were not far away from the liquor area, but Jojo had deliberately bypassed that area just now.
"Don't drink, don't drink." Jojo waved his hand.
The two of them walked slowly and leisurely around the supermarket for more than an hour, and after buying all the ingredients, the two of them went back to the stadium, Lu Ze's classmates had already left, and they got a super large chocolate mousse cake from the front desk. Even if you can't finish it, even if you don't eat it, Jojo always has an obsession with birthday cakes and has to buy a big one, just like the one at the beach.
"Do you like chocolate-flavored cakes?" Lu Ze asked her, intending to remember this preference.
"No, you said you didn't want the cake, so I had to pick the safest flavor." Jojo replied.
Carrying a cake and a full of ingredients and hot pot base, and then a turtle shell Qiao that he carried with him, Lu Ze felt that it was a very happy thing to go back to that home that had always been empty by himself.
Qiao Qiao guessed that Lu Ze should live well, this high-end community has one household on the first floor, and the elevator directly enters the house, but she was not surprised. She roughly swept the time when the community was built, this is where Lu Ze moved in after he was alone, not where he grew up.
But Lu Ze's home style surprised her a little, no, it should be said that there is no home style. Because of the wide area of one floor and one household, in addition to the load-bearing wall of the foundation, there is no unified planning at a glance, but let the householder design according to his own personal needs, as a result, Lu Ze's house only has a few spaces separated by these load-bearing walls, which are large and empty, and can be seen at a glance.
The decoration is still quite low-key and luxurious, but there is no life at all. In addition to the basic daily necessities, books and computers in the living room, the most is a variety of sports equipment, which is so simple that it can't be simpler, there are no plants or hanging decorations, no decorations, and even the curtains are simple dark blackout curtains, as if the owner has no preferences.
Lu Ze put the cake on the coffee table in front of the sofa, put the dishes into the kitchen, opened the door of his bedroom, and asked Qiao Qiao, "Come in to visit?" β
Qiao Qiao sat on the sofa in the living room without moving, blinking calmly, "Don't visit, you go take a shower and change clothes, don't catch a cold." β
Lu Ze's eyes were full of smiles, and he replied: "Well, then you can walk around by yourself and see anything." β
Then Jojo watched him go into the bedroom to change clothes, he didn't close the door, huh? Listen, why is there the sound of water? He doesn't close the door when he takes a shower?
In the sound of the rushing water, Turtle Shell Qiao once again took out her spirit of looking at her nose, nose, mouth, heart, and heart, and lowered her head to play with her mobile phone.
As she expected, soon Qiaoqiao ushered in a steaming Lu Ze, who was covered in water and did not dry it, his hair was still **, and his shirt was not wearing well.
"You're going to catch a cold like that." Qiao Qiao, who ignored the indecency, commented seriously.
Lu Ze smiled lightly, his eyes sparkled, and asked her in a low voice, "Didn't you go shopping?" "Where he sat when he entered, he still sat there when he came out, like a turtle cowering on his couch.
"Don't go shopping." Jojo felt that he smelled a little bit of dangerous hormones, and self-hypnotized This is to celebrate someone's birthday, to celebrate their birthday.
"Okay, I'll go prepare the hot pot." Lu Ze didn't force her, and planned to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner first. Turtle Shell Qiao thought about it and followed it, cooking hot pot doesn't need any cooking skills, it's just cleaning and processing ingredients, she can't sit on the sofa and just watch the birthday star busy.
But after less than ten minutes, Jojo felt the urge to collapse. Lu Ze always reached out from behind her to get things from the cupboard above her head, taking one for a while, taking one for a while, and not finding out what use the things he took out one after another!
Lu Ze firmly kept his promise and didn't touch her, but this kind of action of gently approaching and then reaching over her head to get something, she could feel the steaming body behind her, okay?
"Handle the ingredients yourself." Turtleshell Joe threw down the vegetables in his hand and hid back on the sofa in the living room to play with his phone.
After a while, someone really knocked Qiaoqiao on WeChat, and he was the only Zhang Bo who added WeChat to each other when they sat together in the stadium today to watch the game and chat.
"Why didn't you leave without saying hello?"
Qiao Qiao glanced at the back of Lu Ze, who was busy in the kitchen, and thought to himself that he also said that his classmates knew his style, so there was no need to say hello.
"I'm sorry, we left first because of something, and we didn't care about it." Qiaoqiao felt that it was rude to leave without saying hello.
"We're in KTV, are you coming?"
"No, you guys can play." Qiao Qiao thought that their classmates probably finished playing and went to renew the stall.
"Are you at Lu Ze's house?"
β¦β¦ Qiao Qiao felt that this question was particularly awkward, she had been chatting with Zhang Bo for a while today, and felt that the other party was very talkative and familiar with ridicule, but it was not appropriate to ask herself.
Seeing that Qiao Qiao didn't reply for a long time, another one came over there, "It's nothing, I just heard Chen Ting say that the two of you mentioned going back to Lu Ze's house to cook and eat at night, so I asked if you are at Lu Ze's house now." You still say it's an ordinary friend, haha. β
Qiaoqiao originally wanted to reply that I was just here to celebrate his birthday, but after thinking about explaining what these things were going to cover up, I deleted it again, and decided to ignore this strange gossip Zhang Bo.
But I saw that "the other party is typing" for a long time, but in the end there was no response, so I chased another message.
"By the way, today is your birthday, so Lu Ze asked you out? When we left, we saw the cake we received at the front desk. β
Jojo is a little strange, don't Lu Ze's roommates know his birthday? However, it is normal for him to have such a cold temperament and not live in the dormitory. If you talk to Zhang Bo, these classmates should also send a blessing message to Lu Ze, so that Lu Ze will be happy and feel that it is good for many people to wish him a birthday. What's more, the other party has already sent three in a row, and Qiao Qiao typed: "It's not mine, today is Lu Ze's birthday, and the cake I bought for him." β
"Hehe, if you don't want to tell the truth, forget it. Why is he on his birthday, you don't know Lu Ze's birthday in October? Sure enough, it's an ordinary friend. β
This tone was so strange that Qiao Qiao was stunned, but what she noticed more was that Lu Ze's birthday was in October, and it was only June now.
Qiao Qiao didn't continue to reply to the message, and he didn't want to send a message to ask Zhang Bo, who had an obviously strange tone. She opened the APP of her mailbox to flip through the email, she booked the ticket when she went to the beach, and Lu Ze sent her the departure time and identity information summarized by everyone on his side. She found it and opened it, and Lu Ze's ID number really showed that it was from October.
It's not uncommon for real birthdays to be inconsistent with ID card birthdays, but Qiaoqiao always felt vaguely as if he had heard something similar.
At this time, WeChat rang again, and the other party sent a message: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really Zhang Bo." We were drinking and playing dice at KTV, and it was just my little sister who took my mobile phone and said that she wanted to play games, I'm really sorry, I already said her. She is just out of love and sad, we drink and sing with her at KTV, she may have drunk too much, don't take the previous conversation to heart. β
"It's fine." This kind of harmless thing Qiaoqiao didn't take to heart, and replied with two words simply.
She remembered what her vague impression was, when she first met Lu Ze, Grandma Zhao once matched the two of them, saying that she and Lu Ze were one year old because of one August and one October, although they were one year apart, but they were actually the same class.
Just now, because of the little charming atmosphere that he teased at Lu Ze's house, Qiao Qiao was really a little angry. He can tease her with anything, but it's a bit too much to trick her out on her birthday and come to his house, right?
When Lu Ze came out with a full hot pot, he saw Qiao Qiao and asked him expressionlessly, "Lu Ze, is it really your birthday today?" β
Lu Ze was silent, he didn't know how to explain this matter, it was indeed a misunderstanding, but it was also his own mistake.
Although Lu Ze doesn't like to talk, he is actually a person who is very sensitive to the goals and intentions of the people around him, just like he thinks that Gao Mingxuan just knows that the Gao family knows that he has money and likes his financial resources, while Chen Ting just likes his appearance when he falls in love with his senior brother at first sight. He didn't like Jojo for the first time, it was because he met her past, saw many details of her, and many of her attitudes towards life.
So Jojo is hard to chase, but he doesn't mind, slowly showing himself from all angles, and slowly knocking on her shell from all angles.
Lu Ze had long felt that Li Jinzhou also liked Qiao Qiao, and he even knew that Li Jinzhou did it on purpose, whether it was Qiao Qiao's busy new job that took up a free time, or the company that picked her up and sent a car to and from work.
But he didn't go to the head-on confrontation with Li Jinzhou, nor did he go to Qiaoqiao's new company to stand guard regardless of it, because he knew that this would only push Qiaoqiao further. Li Jinzhou is still in the disguise of the role of his boss, and he is clearly in the position of pursuing the role, so if he forces Qiao Qiao to choose between work and his own pursuit, he will definitely lose.
So he waited patiently, anyway, he had time to grind slowly.
It doesn't matter if you don't see each other for 28 days or 44 days, for him, Qiaoqiao's every day is in his eyes. Although Qiaoqiao's new job is busy, he doesn't stay up all night like before, at least he has enough sleep. Because Jojo goes to her private back garden every day to update a sentence or two.
For example, "I was dizzy in a meeting, and all departments kicked the ball." I got home at ten o'clock today, and I went to bed at eleven o'clock, yes, I'm a healthy Joe who goes to bed early and gets up early! β
For example, "Recently, the night has been full of business banquets, and you can't drive if you drink, but fortunately, LJZ sent a company car to pick you up." I hate business occasions, my face is stiff with a smile, I need to put on a mask, yes, I'm smooth and radiant Joe! β
Jojo's treehole blog, which is only visible to himself, often speaks in a childish style. But just because no one can see it, it is definitely the truest thought in her heart, no disguise and no mask, it is the most real herself.
He had seen Qiao Qiao in it, worrying and stressful to record Lu Ze's kindness to her, worried that he owed too much, worried that he couldn't afford to pay it back. Warn yourself not to be seduced by Lu Ze's delicious beauty and stay principled. recorded Lu Ze's love words to her, and she was repeatedly entangled and shaken.
Lu Ze has been watching this girl's innermost monologue, holding her psychological defense, her weaknesses, her weaknesses, and her weakness, knocking on her shell little by little, and never losing the confidence to pursue. Because of this, he never wavered in his face to Qiaoqiao, no doubt, no suspicion, no vigilance, always gentle and patient.
Last night he saw Jojo writing in it, LJZ was on a business trip on Friday, and although he still had to work overtime on Saturday and Sunday, he was not so busy, and maybe he could get off work early.
So he drove downstairs to the company today to wait for her, wanting to wait for her to take her to dinner after work. Generally speaking, if Jojo rejects him many times, the higher the guilt, the higher the chance of agreeing. I haven't seen him for nearly half a month this time, I refuse him every day, he drove over and waited downstairs in the company, Qiaoqiao shouldn't be angry, he should get into the car.
While waiting in the car, she had nothing to do, and Lu Ze was turning over her ten-year tree hole life chores. He couldn't remember how many times he had turned it, it was roughly the Cheng dΓΉ that Qiao Qiao's ten years had been imprinted in his heart. At that time, I happened to see Jojo's diary recording the birthday two years after graduation.
"It's my birthday today, and I leave work at 9 o'clock, shouldn't I feel happy? But it's nine o'clock, it's so strange to ask someone to come out, and I specially asked someone to come out for dinner to tell others that my birthday today is even stranger, and it feels like I'm asking for blessings and gifts. But I want to eat hot pot, ahhh It's because it's too unforced! But it's delicious!! I want to eat it!! Weiwei said that she came back on a business trip to make up for me, so I can only go to eat a small hot pot for one person? But I just want to eat hot pot! Mandarin duck pot! No matter, who said that a person can't eat hot pot at nine o'clock! Anyway, it's a 24-hour shop, ignoring other people's eyes, love as much as you want, I'm Hot Pot Joe! Happy birthday to me! β
Lu Ze's heart suddenly moved, remembering that Qiao Qiao had a birthday in two months, and he flipped through the calendar, it was still a weekday Tuesday, so he sent a message to ask her, is it okay to take half a day off on her birthday?
As a result, the result of omitting the subject was that Jojo thought it was his birthday, changed his usual slow reply style, and quickly asked him: "What day?" β
Lu Ze immediately knew that Qiao Qiao probably thought that he wanted to celebrate his birthday, and his heart softened. He returned to today at the speed of light, thinking about making a request to Qiao Qiao today, as long as it was not too much, such as asking her to agree to herself, and other requests that crossed the line a little, Qiao Qiao would not refuse. Lu Ze plans to take her to the squash court he opened to play a ball, and then go back to his home to cook a hot pot for two to eat, these are the two places where he stays the longest, he wants to bring her and slowly bring her into his life.
However, the misunderstanding in this, and his mistake will be wrong, there is no way to explain it, and there is no way to say it.
Qiao Qiao was very angry, she knew that Lu Ze had been poking at her soft-heartedness, betting that she would not tear up the ticket or the ticket, but it was too much to pretend that she had a birthday and deceive her family. She picked up her bag and turned to leave.
Lu Ze was the same as last time at the airport, reached out and grabbed her sleeve, whispered sorry to her, and apologized with a pitiful and cautious face. Qiao Qiao turned around and pulled her sleeve, but she couldn't pull it out, so she had to say coldly, "Let go." β
"I'm not going to do anything. The hot pot has been made, and there is a cake, and I will send you back when I finish eating. Lu Ze didn't let go. But this is not like the time at the airport, where the same trick is a bit ineffective if it is used too much.
Jojo was speechless, "You won't do anything." What else do you want to do? Eat cake, you ......" She endured it for a while, but decided not to speak. She doesn't like to quarrel, she doesn't like to speak badly, and she doesn't like to hurt people when she is impulsive.
Qiao Qiao directly took off his small blazer with his backhand, and suddenly only one sleeve of the jacket was pinched in Lu Ze's hand, and it hung down to the ground pitifully. Lu Ze saw that she turned around and left, so he had to pick up his coat and chase it back to her, "I'll send you back." β
"Don't send it. I'll go by myself, don't make me angry, or I'll really block all your contact information. β
Lu Ze watched the elevator door slowly close, but in the end he didn't stretch out his hand to stop it, he felt that Qiao Qiao was really angry, it was really self-defeating.
Qiaoqiao stood angrily downstairs for a while, then stopped the car and went back to the company to work overtime to finish the things she hadn't done during the day, she needed busy work to calm herself.
In the evening, Lu Ze saw Qiao Qiao's mood log again.
"I'm angry with what, I'm angry, I'm angry! It's to say that you are soft-hearted! It's just that you are shaken! You're a brain-toner! What to make up for his own brain, he has been celebrating his birthday alone for ten years, and he is moved by his own brain to make up for it, don't want it! You promised to go out yourself! You promised him a birthday yourself! You promised to play with him yourself! You yourself promised to go to his house! If you crack yourself, don't blame the fly bites! But I'm still so angry, so angry, so angry! Ahhh I feel like my heart is soft and I have fed the dog! β
The "fly" who bites the cracked egg and the "loyal dog" Lu Ze, who is soft-hearted and feeds the dog, are helpless, and Qiaoqiao is indeed angry. He originally wanted to say that he would tell her that his birthday was not today, no matter whether he apologized or lost his temper, he would not break up for this kind of thing, but he was debunked on the same day.
As soon as he returned to the first time, Lu Ze began to knock on the stand-alone Jojo every day, "Good morning Jojo", "Good night Jojo", "Sorry Jojo", "Remember to rest early", "Remember to wear more clothes when it rains today, remember to bring an umbrella......
A long or short list of greetings, apologies and exhortations on the left slipped down, and there was no reply on the right.
After many days of this, Qiaoqiao, who was engaged in work, gradually became less angry. Then Lu Ze asked her again and asked her if she could ask for leave to accompany him this Saturday. Qiao Qiao still refused to reply, but this time Lu Ze was very persistent, but he didn't say anything, only said that even if he took a leave of absence for half a day, it would be okay for two hours.
Qiaoqiao, who had been deceived once, still rejected Lu Ze, and then he didn't persevere, as usual. Qiaoqiao worked an extra day on Saturday and was a little absent-minded at dinner and when Li Jinzhou reported the progress he made a few times before and after he found out that he didn't work as hard as before and didn't say anything about her.
After returning home, Qiao Qiao was still a little uneasy, Lu Ze asked her to ask for leave today, but she didn't agree, and then Lu Ze had neither news nor phone calls from morning to now. There is no "Good Morning Jojo" and there is no "Good Night Jojo". This is the first time in months.
Jojo was a little hesitant to send a message to ask him, and wanted to say if he wanted to call him, but he felt sick. It must be sick, but it is used to the greetings and courtesies of the other party for several months, and then I will feel lost. This is a disease, and it must be cured.
Putting down the phone, Jojo decided to sleep with his head down. This is the common kind of feeling that when you are used to being chased, you will feel lost. It must be a disease.
The next day was Sunday, and there was still no "Good Morning Jojo" from Lu Ze. And Saturday was still cloudy, and by early Sunday morning it was raining heavily. Qiao Qiao thought that his dull and depressed mood must have been affected by this humid and rainy weather, really, absolutely, if it was a sunny day, the whole person's mood would definitely be a little better and sunny.
Jojo worked hard to keep her head down, and when it was 5 p.m., when she was a little free, she called her grandparents, which was her regular weekly greeting call.
After Qiao Qiao answered the phone, he said hello to his grandmother and asked her if she had just come back from the chess and card room. This is the fixed retirement life of my grandparents and grandmothers, get up early and practice in the morning, read and practice in the morning, go home at five o'clock in the afternoon for entertainment in the chess and card room, watch TV in the evening, drink hot milk, and go to bed on time at nine o'clock.
But my grandmother actually denied it, saying that they hadn't been to the chess and card room for two days.
Qiao Qiao originally just asked in passing, but now it was strange and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Grandma sighed: "There are not enough people, your Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao are not coming, Lu Ze has not answered the phone for two days, they are very worried at home, where to come out to play." β
Qiao Qiao was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with Lu Ze?" β
"Hey, this Saturday is the death day of his grandparents, saying that he is like this every year, he has been missing for a few days, and he will be fine in a few days. But Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao are still worried. β
Qiao Qiao didn't say anything more, quickly finished greeting in two sentences, then hung up the call with his grandmother, and then began to flip through his mobile phone, flipping through every message Lu Ze had sent before.
"Qiaoqiao, can you take a day off to accompany me this Saturday."
"Qiaoqiao, just take this day off, okay."
"Qiaoqiao, I didn't lie to you this time, it's okay to take half a day off."
"Jojo, it's okay to have lunch for two hours."
β¦β¦ Qiaoqiao, who was still a little angry at the time, asked him what was going on, and he was afraid that he would delay the business. But Lu Ze didn't say a reason, he came and went and only asked her if it was okay to take leave on Saturday. Qiaoqiao, who had been fooled once, refused to reply.
She dialed Lu Ze's phone, and sure enough, it was turned off. Qiao Qiao's heart was heavy, she could understand why Lu Ze tried all kinds of reasons to fool her and ask her out, but when it was his turn to really important things, he refused to poke her weakness and made her feel distressed.
Just because those things are more important, especially important, and really important, there is no way to say it, and it can't be used as an excuse to poke her.
Qiao Qiao knew that Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao must be in a very bad mood now, she knew that it must be very strange for her to call rashly, and the other party must ask her why she asked, and asked her what the relationship between her and Lu Ze is now, but she can't control it, she needs an address now.
When Qiaoqiao hung up the phone, she left work early regardless of whether she said hello or asked for leave, and when she rushed into the rain with her car keys in hand, she couldn't even see clearly. After sitting in the cab, Jojo took out a tissue and wiped away his tears carefully, afraid of affecting the sight of the car, and then desperately wanted to meet someone.
When the car drove into the cemetery, there was almost no one, even the shop selling funeral supplies at the door was closed, and the garden keeper shrank in the guard room.
Driving up along the one-way road around the cemetery, it didn't take long for Qiao Qiao to see Lu Ze's car. She stopped, got out of the car with an umbrella, and stood on the side of the road and looked up to see two identical double tombstones standing side by side. Sitting under the tombstone was Lu Ze, who was drenched, drenched, damp from the inside out. He's been cut off for two days and one night, so he's been sitting here for two days and one night, surrounded by scattered bouquets of flowers that have been blown by the wind and rain.
The twilight was dreary, with gusts of cold wind and torrential rain.
Lu Ze leaned in front of the tombstone with his eyes closed expressionlessly, as if he had no vision and no hearing, so numb that he didn't care about the whole world outside, and he didn't notice that there was an extra car or an extra person below, the person he wanted her to accompany him, but she refused to come.
Qiao Qiao stood on the curb and looked at Lu Ze at this moment, remembering her doubts. She always felt that when Lu Ze used various means to pursue her, it made her blur Lu Ze's original face.
It feels right.
In fact, when I first saw Lu Ze in those days, he was more like the real him. Don't like to talk, don't want to deal with people, have no enthusiasm for life, feel that life is meaningless, insomnia day and night for ten years, rely on a large amount of intense exercise to fall asleep, otherwise you have to rely on sleeping pills.
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but blur her vision, remembering that Grandma Zhao asked her on the phone why she asked the address of the cemetery, Qiao Qiao simply explained that Lu Ze had asked her to accompany him yesterday, but she didn't go because she had something, Grandma Zhao was happy that Lu Ze finally had a girl she liked, and told Qiao Qiao to comfort Lu Ze as much as possible, and couldn't help but tearfully tell her about the past back then.
When he was eighteen years old, Lu Ze died in a car of four elders the next day after he got the admission notice, how tragic was the car accident? The front of the car was smashed by impact, the parents in the front seat died on the spot without leaving a full body, and the impact in the back seat was slightly lighter, and because even if they were sitting in the back seat, they were wearing seat belts, Lu Ze's grandparents only had one breath left, but due to old age and physical failure, they still died of injuries in the hospital that night. What's even more cruel is that they all need Lu Ze to identify the corpse. From the bloody car accident scene, from the mutilated to inhuman-shaped corpses, identify your parents, and then go to the hospital morgue to claim the bodies of your grandparents.
When he got the news that the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, Grandpa Zhao, who was in a different place, immediately fell ill and was admitted to the hospital. Lu Ze, who was only eighteen years old, was left alone, silently and numbly going back and forth to the police hospital court.
It was obviously the other party's strict drunk driving, but it turned out that his Lu Ze's family was ruined. Lu Ze was full of pain, grief and anger, full of grievances and anger, but he had nowhere to vent and no one to bear. The driver of the other party's alcoholism has also died on the spot, the car was destroyed and people died, and the perpetrator only left a weak wife and young son in his family. But even if he can afford it, he can't compensate for the lost relatives and ruined life.
Since that day, Lu Ze has stopped caring for people or talking, and he doesn't like to talk to people anymore. He has insomnia day and night, and when he opens his eyes, he feels that life is meaningless, and when he closes his eyes, he is the flesh and blood of his relatives, trapped in this life.
On the day of the funeral, the 18-year-old boy was cut off from communication for three days and three nights, and finally fell into a coma with a high fever and was sent directly to the hospital from the cemetery by the garden keepers. Since then, on the death day every year, he has been like this, closing a qiΔ contact information, as short as two or three days, and as long as nearly a week, without anyone to accompany him, guarding the tombstone alone, and finally getting seriously ill.
But this time, he asked Jojo if he could accompany him.
So Qiao Qiao feels that Lu Ze, who has been since chasing her, is not like the real Lu Ze, but in fact, he is also part of him, part of him is normal, part of him is a teenager, and part of him has been sleeping for many years due to the accident, and now he has rekindled the spark of life.
So he was attracted to Qiaoqiao, who told fairy tales by the sea. He also had a wound that he was reluctant to dig out for comfort, because if he dug too much, the wound would become infected. He also has no one to protect, and he lives silently with a shell on his back.
Jojo felt that his cruel words were not wrong, and this heartfelt emotion came from sympathy.
But reason can't control the heartbeat, and even more can't control the distress.
At this moment, Qiao Qiao looked at Lu Ze, who was soaking wet and unresponsive isolated from the outside world, and she was also in the same mood, feeling moved and distressed.
Qiao Qiao walked up lightly, and when he held the umbrella above Lu Ze's soaking wet head, he didn't react. He didn't even hear footsteps, didn't notice anyone approaching, didn't notice that there was no rain pouring down on him.
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but reach out and touch his face, it was already so cold that there was no temperature, and it was all biting cold.
A soft and warm touch came from his cheeks, which had been frozen to numbness, and Lu Ze opened his eyes. His hair, face, and body were so soaked with rain that it took him a moment to distinguish between them after opening his eyes, and only then did he confirm that it was Jojo in front of him through his rain-blurred eyes.
Qiao Qiao held an umbrella in his right hand, his face was distressed and worried, his crooked eyes were filled with tears, as if there were flashes of light, and his left hand was gently caressing his face, as if he was afraid of breaking the precious porcelain.
This is the first time that the two have had contact since Qiaoqiao said that he refused physical contact, and it was Qiaoqiao's active physical contact.
So Lu Ze reached out and hugged her, but Qiao Qiao did not refuse. Lu Ze approached her and kissed her, and Qiao Qiao did not refuse.
It's really just a kiss, and it's just a kiss, and there's no lip and tongue entanglement, and there's no lust/lust flowing. Lu Ze didn't know how long he had been sitting in the rain, and his lips were so cold that there was no temperature. What still slipped between the two of them was still slipping, and I don't know if it was the rain that fell or Jojo's tears.
This is the softest place, the saddest place, and the most precious place in Lu Ze's heart. He wanted to bring Jojo here, but he didn't want to use the wound as an excuse, so Jojo refused, but she eventually came.
Although it was a cemetery, it was a place that neither of them had ever feared. Because what sleeps here are their dearest relatives and the most cherished past.
