Chapter 61: I Know Him Better Than I
This night, Lin Jie didn't sleep well.
She lay on the top bunk of the rest pod, looking out at the low ceiling. I opened my eyes and closed my eyes, but it was all the voice of the cold at the moment when the communication was connected:
"Lin Jie, it's me."
At that moment, her heartbeat almost stopped.
And when the crowd knelt before him, he looked down at her. Although she knew very well that he would look at her in no different light than he would look at other subordinates. But those gentle and pitying eyes appeared in her mind repeatedly.
It was as if something that had been dusty for a long time had been opened again, overwhelmingly flooding her heart.
He was in the army for seven years, and she followed him for seven years. Even though he was three years younger than her, and even though she never spoke, this man was like the only god in her life.
And today, God is back in her life.
After tossing and turning for a long time, she got up and jumped out of bed. Putting on a military uniform, he walked along the road.
The pilot's rest cabin has always been mixed with men and women, and several cabins are connected to each other. It's just that there are only a few of them now, so almost everyone occupies a cabin. When it's cold, I'll stay in the innermost part tonight.
She just wanted to see him.
The night is as cool as water, and the sea is silent.
Lin Jie walked to the entrance of the rest cabin, stood sideways beside the rows of bunk beds, and looked inside. But he saw that the bed he should be sleeping on was neatly folded, and there was no one.
Lin Jie was stunned and walked in.
"Dear Colonel Lin Jie, are you here to find the commander?" Xiao Qiongyan's grinning voice came.
Lin Jie followed the prestige.
It turned out that he had been standing in the dark corner by the window, silently.
As before, when the Commander sleeps, the robot butler will stand by his bedside, watching the stars watch.
Lin Jie: "What about others? ”
Xiao Qiongyan stretched her muscles, jumped beside her in three steps and two steps, and said with a wink, "The commander got up early and went to pick up Miss Jinzhi." ”
“…… Pick up? ”
Xiao Qiongyan nodded, sat down on the bed next to him, and said, "Yes." He said that Miss Jinzhi had gone to bed early yesterday and should be waking up soon, so he went to her door and waited. ”
Lin Jie was silent for a moment, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, sat down too, took out a cigarette from her pocket, and lowered her head to light it.
Xiao Qiongyan pouted: "You smoke again!" It's really the same, it's not feminine at all. ”
Lin Jie raised her hand and took a puff of cigarette, looked at him and smiled: "Haven't you changed at all?" It's still so happy and happy. ”
Xiao Qiongyan shook his head and said, "No." I've also had a lot on my mind over the years. Every time I think of you, I think of the Phoenix...... I'm going to be sad. Then, I'll look up at the stars, and then I'll be less sad. ”
Lin Jie was silent for a while, then reached out and touched his head: "Stupid little John." ”
Xiao Qiongyan was very happy, and sent her head forward again, almost completely into her arms: "I like you to touch me so much." Over the years, only Miss Jinzhi has touched my head so gently. However, her hands are too soft, not as rough as yours, and there is no friction. Or you are the most comfortable to touch. ”
Lin Jie paused, and then slapped him on the head: "you~ damn." Think I'm thick-handed? ”
Xiao Qiongyan smiled again, raised his head, stared at her, and said seriously: "Colonel Lin Jie, tell you, I have made a lot of money as programmers with the commander over the years, which is enough to support the three of you." You don't have to worry about your livelihood anymore, and you don't have to work anymore. Then he sighed and said, "I heard Daniel say that you have worked as a courier, a porter, a cashier, and a restaurant waiter over the years...... Also because of the fight and bad service attitude, I was always fired. Hey, we're aliens too, so the service attitude should be better...... However, from now on, you can do whatever you want. Colonel Lin Jie, is there anything you want to do? ”
Lin Jie originally smiled when she heard this, but in the end, she only took two deep puffs of cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt into the trash can, and said lightly: "I don't want to do anything." ”
"Oh......"
After a while, I heard her say lightly: "The only thing I want to do in my life is to protect him with my life." No one else, anything else, it doesn't matter. ”
——
When Jinzhi woke up, he looked out the window.
There is no doubt about it, pitch black chaos.
She lay down, lazy and didn't want to move. The first thought that comes to mind is: What are you doing when you are cold?
Those anxious emotions before going to bed suddenly have a tendency to ferment and increase a little bit.
At this time, she noticed that the words written on the glass were gone.
So she crawled to the end of the bed and wrote a clearly visible "SD". After staring at it for a few seconds, he raised his finger again and drew a large cross on it.
Suddenly feel comfortable.
After washing, she opened the door to ventilate. But I saw a man standing in the corridor, looking out the window at the dark water.
He turned his head.
The two of them were silent.
He stared at her, and after a moment, smiled gently, "Did Jinzhi sleep well?" ”
"Not so good." Jinzhi replied truthfully, "I kind of recognize the bed. ”
"We'll go back today," he said. ”
"Okay." She glanced inside the room, "Then I'll clean up, you can come in and sit." ”
Ying Hanshi followed her and walked in.
Jinzhi glanced around the room, hey, how did she think it was quite tidy. So I put a few belongings in my backpack.
"Jinzhi." His voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Why do I have ...... on my head?" Will there be a fork? ”
Jinzhi paused, and turned his head to look at him. He was sitting in a chair, his eyes fixed on the windowpane.
Jinzhi's mood at this moment is no less than painting a villain behind him, but he was caught red-handed. Her face burned a little, turned her face away, and replied, "It's a random drawing, it doesn't mean anything." ”
Before he could finish speaking, he felt him get up and approach.
Then her wrist was grabbed.
She looked up at him.
"Jinzhi ......," he looked into her eyes, "are you going to reject me?" ”
Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, suddenly smiled, and shook his head: "That's not what I meant." In fact...... In fact, in the online language of our earthlings...... Well, the symbol ╳ has many meanings. It's not just the meaning of negation and wrongness, but also the meaning of hitting the target and hitting the heart......"
It's getting farther and farther away.
Ying Hanshi listened, he let go of her hand, frowned slightly, and carefully pondered Jinzhi's words.
After coming to Earth, the books he read the most were joke collections. There is also a superficial dabbling in ancient poetry, and I have read "Three Hundred Tang Poems" and "Two Hundred Song Poems". But he really doesn't know much about the language of the Internet.
He remembered that every time he discussed with Zhuang Chong, Zhuang Chong always wrote the goals to be completed on the whiteboard. Each time he completes an item, Zhuang Chong will gesture with a pistol and then "fire" a shot at the whiteboard.
"Bingo." He said, "Accompany her for shopping – done." ”
Ying Han came over a little "understood": "So...... What does a cross mean to score? ”
Jin Zhi was silent for a while before replying, "Yes." ”
Ying Han smiled slowly.
In an instant, he looked bright and handsome, and his eyes were gentle.
He stared at her and said seriously, "Thank you, Xiaozhi." Hope...... I can get you more and more forks. ”
Jinzhi turned his head away, avoiding his gaze: "Hmm......"
After a while, I couldn't help but curl my lips and smile.
This man is really unbearable.
