Chapter 147: No Illness and No End
Zhong Yi opened the door and yawned at Lu Yuchuan, who was standing outside the door, half-leaning on the door frame, his voice was lazy, but it was difficult to hide the anger of getting up just now: "What are you doing?" If you have something to say, say it! β
Lu Yuchuan crossed his arms to his chest, looked at her condescendingly, ignored her impatience, his voice was faint, and he said straight to the point: "Did you off?!" β
"Huh?" Zhong Yi looked confused, his brain couldn't turn for a while, he grabbed his messy hair irritably, and said angrily: "I don't have the energy to discuss with you the question of whether to sell or not to sell now, I want to go back to sleep, OK." β
As he spoke, Zhong Yi took a few steps back, stretched out his hand to close the door, but was held by Lu Yuchuan with one hand, and snorted softly: "Come here!" Don't want to sleep if you don't make it clear! β
Zhong Yi let go of the doorknob he was holding in compromise, took a few steps forward, stood straight in front of Lu Yuchuan, and put on a posture of waiting for questions and answers, and sorted out the messy thoughts in his brain in the interval.
Including Lu Yuchuan's sentence "Did you off and betray me", it is related to the fact that she told Xin Rui on the phone that he was back.
Lu Yuchuan took a deep breath, suppressed the turbulent waves condensed under his eyes, cleared his throat, and asked in a low voice, "Have you been in contact with Ruan Ruan recently?" β
Favorite: "......" Nguyen Ruan?
She was still wondering if he had heard her talking to Xin Rui on the phone, so she questioned why she meddled in her meddling and embarrassed everyone. The topic suddenly turned to his little cousin Ruan Ruan, which made her even more confused.
Lu Yuchuan pushed his eyebrows, looking at her confused expression, he knew that he would definitely not be able to ask anything if he didn't remind her. He patiently lifted his chin in the direction of the living room, frowning.
Zhong Yi took a few more steps forward, hid behind the wall and poked out a small head, glanced at the sofa in the living room, and looked surprised when he saw the familiar back of his head sitting with his back to her.
"Nguyen Nguyen?" Zhong Yi silently retreated to the door of the room, glanced at Lu Yuchuan, who was not very good-looking, and said with his mouth.
Lu Yuchuan nodded without denial, his deep gaze locked on her face and never moved, judging from the surprised expression on her face just now, the suspicion rate increased by sixty-five percent.
"Do you know what it means for her to come?" Lu Yuchuan frowned, his tone was quite displeased, he withdrew his gaze locked on her face, sighed lightly and said, "My vacation may have to end early, and then go back to the army." β
Zhong Yi couldn't answer for a while, thinking about what kind of bond was formed between Lu Yuchuan and Ruan Ruan? Let him frown in displeasure when he sees her, and he wants to hide far away.
Should she say that she was the one who exposed his whereabouts? Ruan Ruan said at the time that she was traveling with her family, and asked her where she was, but she just replied casually, and Na Cheng thought that the little girl ran here directly.
Lu Yuchuan's deep eyes saw through her careful thoughts at a glance, hooked the corners of his lips, and said nonchalantly: "Ruan Ruan is not as simple as you seem, he is a troublemaker. The main thing is that she got into trouble, and I'm the one who cleaned up the mess. β
Although he didn't care, Lu Yuchuan's faintly frowning brows were already explaining everything to her, you recruited people, and you are responsible for taking care of them!
Zhong Yi didn't dare to look him in the eyes, lowered his head, and didn't say a word. Lu Yuchuan's gentle tone sounded above his head, and he didn't blame her at all, but he led her into the pit: "If you feel a little guilty about me, you take her to play these days, she listens to you the most, I know, as long as she goes back happily, don't go to my mother's complaint against me, I will take your camera." β
Zhongyi's eyes flickered, and his firm "This has nothing to do with me" began to waver. Lu Yuchuan's conditions are really too generous, and they are in her arms.
Ruan Ruan has always been noisy, and the little girl doesn't like to be quiet, she can't stay at home, so she always runs out. In the early years, she refused to obey discipline, and she was about to learn from the bad, Lu Yuchuan's grandfather, that is, Ruan Ruan's grandfather, sent her out of the country in desperation.
It's just that when Lu Yuchuan mentions his little cousin, who is a headache, he will grit his teeth and pop out three words from between his teeth - "troublemaker".
So as soon as he saw Ruan Ruan running here, his heart sank, and he immediately knocked on the door of Zhongyi's room, and explained the ins and outs of the whole thing clearly without a preface, and the stakes were obviously unfavorable to him, so he had no choice but to make this decision, let her take care of this "big Buddha" for a good life, and he could spend this Spring Festival with peace of mind.
"Cousinβ" Ruan Ruan exited the game page a little bored, stretched, leaned sideways on the back of the sofa, rested his chin on the back of his hand and looked at the empty living room, and called out to his cousin, but no one responded. Ruan Ruan frowned, thinking to himself where the people went?
Lu Yuchuan raised her chin, her eyes kept signaling that she nodded in agreement, so that the camera she had in mind would not be easy to get her hands on.
Zhong Yi deliberately misinterpreted the glance he cast, yawned, retreated to the back of the door, and said to him: "I still have to sleep in the cage, you coax her first." Before closing the door, Zhong Yi raised his voice and responded: "You said you were going to take Ruan Ruan to the playground, I know, you play slowly, don't worry about grandma being lonely at home!" With me with you, don't worry. β
Lu Yuchuan's face was as if it had been overturned in a palette, white and blue. His eyes stared at Zhong Yi coldly, his eyes were gloomy, and the coldness around him plummeted, and it seemed that he was about to tear her down in the next second.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhongyi sat up from the bed, changed his clothes, opened the door, and walked out of the room. The living room was quiet, and after looking around, Lu Yuchuan and Ruan Ruan were missing, guessing that they should have gone out.
Father and Mother Zhong had not yet returned from visiting other relatives, so Commander Lu and Ruan Yuhe took an early flight back to the town in advance, saying that something happened there and needed to be dealt with. She and her grandmother were left in the lively home, and when it cooled down, the already small living room suddenly seemed empty.
Zhong Yi paced out of the house, standing in the small courtyard and moving and lying on his limbs, the sun shining on his body at noon was warm, and he didn't feel the cold.
Grandma, who came back from shopping for vegetables outside, stepped on the cobblestone path, and saw from a distance where Zhong Yi, who was only wearing a sweater in the middle of the courtyard, was a little unhappy, and muttered: "Xiaoyi, it's still so cold, hurry into the house and put on a coat, what can I do if I get frostbite." Be good, listen to grandma, put on your coat and come out to play. β
As soon as Zhong Yi turned his head, he saw his grandmother holding vegetables in both hands, standing in place and muttering to herself, her gray hair shining silver in the sun. Zhong Yi smiled lightly, swallowed "Grandma, I'm not cold", and responded: "Okay, I'll put on my coat." β
Grandma's frowning brows also relaxed, with a kind smile in her eyebrows, looking at Zhong Yi who was walking towards her, her arms were circled, and Zhong Yi's furry head was pressed towards her ear.
"What do you want to eat today? Grandma will do it for you. Grandma slightly tilted her head and glanced at the coquettish favor, and her tone was full of doting.
I didn't eat breakfast, and I have been hungry until now, and my stomach has been hungry for a long time. Zhong Yi touched his suffocating stomach, and walked into the kitchen with his grandmother in his arms as he spoke: "I love all the dishes that grandma cooks, hehe." β
After lunch, I liked to accompany my grandmother to bask in the sun for a while, and gently coaxed my grandmother to take a nap in a timely manner, while I held the camera and fiddled with my head, looking serious and focused.
I took it with me when I came, and I only touched it in the past few days, and I took a lot of Chinese New Year's Eve meals and family photos, each of which contains endless memories, and the moment most worth recording was saved by the sound of the shutter.
I like photography, I like to take pictures of beautiful things and keep them forever. People's memories fade slowly, but photos don't.
At first, she only had a passion for photography, but in the end, she couldn't extricate herself from it, and it became a part of her life, and she was indispensable.
When Lu Yuchuan and Ruan Ruan came back, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as Ruan Ruan saw her, he rushed up and hugged her excitedly, while Lu Yuchuan sat on the sofa with a helpless face, so tired that he didn't want to move.
Ruan Ruan has been in a state of high excitement, pulling her to chatter non-stop, Zhong Wei was afraid that she would wake up her grandmother who was taking a nap, so she stretched out her slender index finger and put it to her lips, signaling her to be quieter, grandma is still taking a nap.
Ruan Ruan closed his mouth in understanding, nodded, drank a few sips of cold water to moisten his throat, sat on the single sofa and flipped through the photo album with his mobile phone.
"Where have you been? Tired like this. Zhong Yi poured a glass of warm water for Lu Yuchuan and brought it to him, blinked, and asked curiously.
Lu Yuchuan lazily raised his eyelids, glanced at her, took the water cup from her hand, and took a sip, "I almost visited the entire S City." It's all because of your unintentional actions that gave me the opportunity to get acquainted with this place. The second half of the sentence was extremely low, and Zhong Yi even heard the sound of gnashing his teeth.
"Huh...... Scold. Zhong Yi laughed dryly, sat sideways, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, turned the volume to the lowest, and watched the gala replaying on the TV.
Ruan Ruan closed her phone and sat down next to her, holding her cheek in one hand, watching the picture on the TV intently, occasionally picking up the cut apples in the fruit bowl and eating them, during which it was very quiet.
Xin Rui lay at home for a day with nothing to do, thinking of countless excuses for not being able to come to S City, and even thinking of excuses for lying in the future, so that Zhong Yi would not doubt it at all. She held her phone for a long time, but she didn't even have the courage to make a phone call.
She found countless excuses to convince herself, whether it was self-deception or unforgettable old love, none of these had anything to do with her, and she went for only one purpose - vacation!
There are some things that you know that blindly avoiding will not be solved at all, and will only put yourself in a dilemma from which it is difficult to extricate yourself. Since it was broken half a year ago, and this relationship came to an end half a year ago, what is she afraid of.
The more she cared, the more it showed that her heart still couldn't calm down, but she also knew that this relationship that had not yet begun was destined to end in tragedy......
She thought, really want to forget, maybe it is to face it, face up to this endless relationship, even if it has been hurt all over the body, always try to take this step.
