A night of lingering sorrow.

By the time dawn, Ye Qian had already packed up.

I walked ahead with my suitcase.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise of footsteps outside the door, followed by the rapid ringing of the doorbell and the sound of knocking on the door.

Ye Qian hurriedly opened the door.

At the door, there were many people standing in the neighborhood committee, including doctors and old women wearing white armbands printed with the words "United to fight SARS" printed in red, and everyone had a serious expression on their faces.

"How?" Ye Qian hurriedly asked.

"You're already quarantined!" The people from the neighborhood committee said.

"Why?" Ye Qian's face changed greatly, "Why do you isolate me, I don't get sick!" ”

"We were notified," the neighborhood committee person explained, "that one of your colleagues was identified as a suspected patient, so we were going to isolate you!" ”

"Are you going to take us to the hospital?" Ye Qian asked in a panic.

"No!" The person from the neighborhood committee said, "We only ask you to be at home for two weeks of medical observation, you can't go out, what do you need to contact us!" ”

"Are you still guarding the door?" Ye Qian asked again.

"There is no need to be guarded," said the member of the neighborhood committee, "it is all up to consciousness!" During the quarantine period, no contact with outsiders is allowed, and body temperature is measured twice a day......"

Ye Qian stopped talking and looked at me expressionlessly.

I smiled silently.

"Who is this?" An old aunt in the neighborhood committee asked suspiciously.

"My boyfriend!" Ye Qian shouted hysterically.

"You can't go out either!" The old aunt of the neighborhood committee said solemnly, "You'd better sleep in separate beds, don't eat in one bowl, don't drink water in one cup......

Ye Qian silently closed the door, silently came to the sofa and sat down, looking at me expressionlessly.

I don't know how to persuade her.

After a while, Ye Qian got up and went to the study, took out a bottle of red wine, opened it and began to drink.

"Early in the morning, drinking alcohol is not good for your health!" I whispered.

Ye Qian looked at me expressionlessly, didn't say anything, and poured a big sip of red wine.

"It is considered to be seclusion," I said seriously, "and there used to be many literati and artists who lived in seclusion at every turn, trying to isolate themselves from the world and make themselves pure and leisurely!" ”

"It's all my colleague!" Ye Qian muttered angrily.

"People say it's just a suspicion, not a diagnosis!" I explained.

"If it had been diagnosed," Ye Qian shouted loudly, "we would have been dragged to Xiaotangshan by them a long time ago!" ”

"Then you should call and ask the others now," I reminded, "to see if they're quarantined?" ”

"That's right!" Ye Qian said hurriedly picked up her phone, "Why did I forget this?" ”

I laughed.

Ye Qian began to make phone calls non-stop.

Her face began to become less nervous and angry.

"Haha!" Ye Qian laughed out loud after putting down the phone.

"How?" I asked tentatively.

"They're all quarantined," Ye Qian said with a smile, "not allowed to go out!" ”

"Now rest assured!" I said with a smile.

"Hmm!" Ye Qianwan smiled, "Drink two more glasses!" Sleep and do that! ”

"The old aunt of the neighborhood committee just said," I said to Ye Qian seriously, "They told us to sleep in separate beds!" ”

"Are you going to do it?" Ye Qianxing's eyes were slightly disgusted, and his mouth was full of wine.

"I'll take it off!" I said cautiously.

Ye Qian smiled, her cheeks were smiling, and her tenderness was rippling.

I smiled, walked out to the balcony, opened the window, and prepared to smoke. Just then, I saw a group of people downstairs pointing in our direction. It seems that we have been stared at by countless pairs of eyes.

Thus began our quarantine life.

No downstairs, no door.

Telephone calls are the only way we can communicate with the outside world.

At this time, relatives and friends who knew that we were quarantined called one after another, and the leaders of the Municipal Epidemic Prevention Office, the Bureau, the neighborhood committee, the Health Department and Ye Qian's company's anti-SARS team called us three times a day to greet us.

Our food is delivered to your doorstep every day.

A medical worker comes to the house twice a day to take his temperature. She was dressed in white, wearing a mask, and revealing a pair of large, vigilant eyes. She took out a "Notice of Close Contacts", which listed various regulations, asking us to obey the "quarantine" and not conceal it, otherwise we would be legally responsible.

"How good is that!" I smiled and said to Ye Qian, "You don't need to rush to buy food, someone will send it to the door; You don't need to have a physical examination yourself, there will be a special person to check it! ”

"Why do I feel a little dizzy?" Ye Qian muttered.

"You drink so much alcohol every day, can you not get dizzy?" I laughed.

"But I'm still afraid of death!" Ye Qian said with a snort of wine.

"Life is impermanent, life is fragile," I said in a deep voice, "more people have died in car accidents than SARS, don't you still drive?" ”

"I found that you are not afraid at all," Ye Qian asked in wonder, "Why?" ”

"Because I believe in myself," I said in a firm tone, "I believe in my body's resistance, and I also believe that Beijing has the ability to defeat SARS soon!" I believe that our current experience will definitely become a valuable spiritual wealth for us in the future! The neighborhood committee has also done the right thing, and would rather 'separate' a thousand by mistake than let go of one, in extraordinary times! ”

"That makes sense," Ye Qian smiled, "Then we'll treat it as a vacation!" ”

"And how do you plan to schedule this time?" I asked seriously.

"Of course it's writing," Ye Qian said with a smile, "what are you going to do?" ”

"Of course I'm writing," I said with a laugh, "you use your laptop, and I borrow my desktop!" ”

"Good!" Ye Qian smiled.

Outside the window, pedestrians are still scarce.

The air was filled with a pungent smell.

Time flies.

Two weeks passed quickly.

On the morning of May 12, we woke up and started taking our temperatures.

"It's all 37 degrees!" I said with a smile.

"37 degrees," Ye Qian smiled, "A person's normal body temperature, a healthy temperature!" ”

"37 degrees of North Drift love," I said emotionally, "slowly let the years to experience, let Beijing witness, what is the eternal time!" ”

Just then, the doctor called.

"It's normal," Ye Qian happily shouted on the phone, "We're both 37 degrees!" ”

"I'll have to measure it myself!" The doctor said uncomfortably on the phone.

"Then come quickly!" Ye Qian laughed.

After a while, the doctor arrived without stopping.

She quickly pulled out her thermometer and let us clip it for a moment, then looked at it.

"No problem," the doctor said, pulling out the certificate of release from quarantine and handing it to us, "you are free!" ”

"We've always been free!" I laughed.

Ye Qian and I happily ran towards the hug.

Outside, the sky is blue and pure, and the air is fresh and clean.

I stretched out and began to breathe in the air outside, enjoying the freedom and sunshine that I had not seen for a long time.

"You're not afraid of SARS now, right?" I asked Ye Qian happily.

"Don't be afraid!" Ye Qian said happily, "Let's go out for a good walk today, come back in the evening and drink to celebrate, and then ......"

"Then it's time for me to go back," I said earnestly, "I really have to go back and see!" We've got so many thieves that my house has been emptied by now! ”

"I guess it's okay," Ye Qian said with a smile, "The thieves have either fled Beijing a long time ago, or they have been arrested a long time ago, especially the beautiful female thief!" ”

I laughed, but my eyes were moist with laughter.

Miaohan's young, beautiful, but often frightened face came to my mind again.

I shook my head gently.

"Missed her?" Ye Qian asked with a smile.

"It's a good time for her to get in," I said bitterly, "and she managed to avoid SARS!" ”

Ye Qian smiled.
