In the evening, Yu House.

The jeep drove into the courtyard, but Yu Qicheng in the driver's seat did not get out of the car in a hurry.

The window was half-open, he leaned his elbows on it, and lit it with a lighter with a cigarette in his mouth, and the white smoke dispersed, and he spat out slightly, and his unsmiling face was grim.

Halfway through a cigarette, he raised his right hand and opened the storage compartment.

There was nothing cluttered inside, and when the phone was picked up, only the band-aid that had been torn open was left.

Yu Qicheng picked it up and condensed it through the smoke.

Faintly, you can still smell the smell of Chinese herbs on it.

This is the second time they met in tomb sweeping, she bought him as an atonement, he found her as early as when she entered the Lin mansion, and always watched coldly, very different from the first time in the bar, she was very quiet, and behaved exceptionally well-behaved in front of the Lin family.

is so well-behaved that it even makes people feel a little distressed.

He never used this band-aid, but he didn't lose it.

Yu Qicheng was distracted from it, and it seemed that he was not just staring at the Band-Aid, but at a person.

Suddenly, the Band-Aid was taken away.

With the sound of the car door being slammed shut, Yu Qiyou, the second in line in the Yu family, sat in the co-pilot in a professional suit and asked him, "Big brother, why don't you enter the house when you come back!"

"Are you off work?" Yu Qicheng tilted his head.

"Well, I had a meeting, and I was exhausted. Yu Qiyou nodded, pulled the tie around his neck, and stretched out his hand to him, "Give me one!"

Yu Qicheng took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and handed it over, and the brothers lit cigarette butts at each other.

"It's far away to see you sitting in the car in a daze, what are you thinking?" asked Yu Qiyou.

"Nothing. Yu Qicheng replied lightly, glanced over and asked, "That kid Qi Han, didn't come back again?"

"I'll call you, saying it's an operation! This stinky boy, who is fooling there, can he still answer the phone during the operation? He just doesn't like to come back, it's useless for anyone to say, our family, he can live a better life!" Yu Qiyou laughed and scolded to the end, and his tone sighed.

The two brothers both pulled the corners of their lips helplessly.

It seems that many times, a person's growth environment is destined to face and bear more than ordinary people, sometimes it may seem enviable, but more often than not, he can't really do what he owes.

Yu Qiyou took a puff of cigarette and changed the topic and asked, "Why are you holding this?

"Nope. Yu Qicheng shook his head.

"Then I just scratched my hand, give it to me!" Yu Qiyou heard this, raised his left finger and said.

It's just that before he could put the band-aid on, he was snatched back by Yu Qicheng next to him very resolutely, and carefully pasted the adhesive tape, and then opened the storage compartment and put it inside, not allowing anyone to touch it again.

"No, big brother, it's just a band-aid!" Yu Qiyou was surprised.

Yu Qicheng snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and reprimanded: "Big man, what kind of band-aid do you use for a little injury, don't chirp with a girl." ”

"You didn't buy this Band-Aid yourself, did you?" asked Yu Qiyou with the keen eye of a businessman.

"......" Yu Qicheng didn't say anything.

"Who gave it to you, such a treasure?" asked Yu Qiyou aggressively.

Yu Qicheng frowned imperceptibly and changed the topic, "The one you asked me to inquire about before, the commander in the border defense area, is estimated to be transferred back soon." ”

"My brother and sister shouldn't know yet. ”

"Huh. Yu Qiyou's face suddenly sank.

"It's almost time to eat, let's go. Yu Qicheng pulled out the car key and took the lead in opening the car door.

Yu Qiyou looked gloomy for a long time, and also got out of the car.

Suddenly he thought of something, and raised his voice in the back, "Eh, big brother, you haven't said who gave it?"

Yu Qicheng ignored it, and walked straight to the villa with his military boots.

A university with lights on in a women's dormitory.

Xu Jinghao lay on the bed, her face supported by two hands, and a brown handkerchief was spread on the pillow.

When she lied to him that she didn't have it with her, she had already made up her mind that she didn't plan to return it to him anymore and wanted to keep it secretly.

The dormitory door opened, and Xiao Qian came back with a lunch box, shouting, "I bought oden and fried tofu, whoever eats it eats it!"

The other two housemates all came down from the bed and gathered up.

"Quiet, don't you like oden the most, don't you hurry down!" Seeing that she didn't move, Xiao Qian called out to her.

"Eat, I've eaten too much at night. Xu Jinghao replied without interest.

"Hey—"

Xiao Qian stepped on the lower bunk and poked her head out.

Xu Jing shuddered, stuffed the handkerchief under the pillow and said angrily, "Why are you, scare me!"

"What are you doing on it, you have been in the middle of the afternoon!" Xiao Qian's face was full of doubts, and she blinked again and said, "I heard that you went to the cafeteria with a man to eat at noon today?

"Listen to what that Kuo Shao said!" Xu Jinghao pointed out.

"Ahem!" Xiao Qian couldn't hide her embarrassment.

"In the future, I will help that Kuo Shao to pull the strings, I will definitely not have anything to do with him, let him die of that heart as soon as possible! Go and go, don't bother me here, go eat your oden and fried tofu!"

After driving away her roommates, Xu Jinghao rolled over and lay on her back on the pillow.

The phone rang suddenly at this time, and her heart moved, almost quickly in front of her, and after seeing the number displayed on it, a certain expectation flashing in her eyes instantly dimmed.

She picked it up and put it in her ear, "Hey, grandpa......"

A rest day at the end of the week, Hayashi House.

Upstairs in Mr. Lin's bedroom, Xu Jinghao stood in front of the mirror, his coat was on the Taishi chair next to him, and he was wearing a beige cashmere coat that was below the knee, and there were tags on the cuffs.

It seems that there is a heart, and the price on the label has been torn off, and only the relevant ingredients are left to be washed.

But even so, Xu Jing felt good and knew that the price was definitely expensive.

She took off her clothes carefully, turned back to the old man sitting on the Taishi chair and said, "Grandpa, I have clothes to wear!"

"What, don't like it?" the old man frowned deliberately.

"No, no, how can you not like it! You don't have to help me buy new clothes, I have something to wear!" Xu Jing was afraid that he would be unhappy, so he hurriedly coaxed.

"It's yours to wear it, this is grandpa's intention, can't you buy a dress for your granddaughter?" The old man smiled kindly, "I also walked there when your uncle accompanied me to the street that day, and I specially asked the clerk to help me choose it! It's about to be autumn, and it's just right to wear it then, if you dare not wear it, see that I don't get angry with you!"

"Okay, thank you, grandpa!" Xu Jing was helpless, so she had to fold her clothes and put them away.

The old man was satisfied, and after chatting for a while, he asked her with a smile, "Be quiet, don't go back at noon, stay and eat with grandpa, right?"

When she came, she met her uncle Lin Ye who had just come back in the courtyard, and if she stayed to eat, she would definitely be at the same table, so I don't know what it would be.

"No, I have something to do. Xu Jinghao shook her head.

"Okay!" the old man knew what she was thinking, and he didn't feel too embarrassed.

When it was about time, Xu Jinghao proposed to go back, and the old man took her hand and sent her, and when she came down the stairs on the second floor, someone walked around and was called over.

"Have you brought the tea I ordered?" asked the old man with a hand behind his back.

"The driver has already driven to pick it up! When my aunt comes over in the afternoon, I will be able to pick it up!" the subordinate bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"Hmm. The old man nodded in satisfaction.

Xu Jinghao listened beside her, and couldn't help biting her lip gently, there was a little person in her heart who was advocating something, and after taking two steps, she still spoke, "Grandpa......"

"What's the matter?" the old man asked, pausing in his steps.

"I ......" Xu Jing said with a little discomfort, "I suddenly want to change my mind, grandpa, can I stay and have lunch with you?"

"Of course you can!" the old man was naturally very happy, and hurriedly said to his subordinates, "Quick, hurry up and order the kitchen to add two more dishes!"

Looking at the subordinate who ran to the kitchen quickly, Xu Jinghao exhaled softly, she didn't know what she was doing, but inexplicably, after learning that he would come to the Lin Mansion, she wanted to stay very strongly.

Sure enough, an unusually depressing meal, even if the old man took care of it, the frequent glances from the uncle and his biological father's wife still succeeded in making Xu Jing lose her appetite.

After it was finally over, Xu Jinghao accompanied the old man to eat fruit in the living room.

The landline on the tripod next to him rang, and the old man picked it up, "Hmm...... Okay, it's okay...... I know, you're busy with your ...... Okay, that's it, drive slowly!"

"Grandpa, whose phone is it?"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Jinghao leaned over.

The old man replied with a smile, "Your little uncle." ”

"What are you talking about?" Xu Jing asked casually, but the acceleration of her heartbeat betrayed her.

"I said I had something to do and I was going to the Investigation Bureau, but I came. The old man said with a little regret.

"Oh......" Xu Jing nodded.

The baby's fat face drooped, her hanging fingers were tangled into a clump, the light in her eyes was decreasing and dimming, the original full expectation was like a bubble evaporating, and the indescribable loss in her heart.

The next day, Aijian New District.

This is a newly developed place in the ice city, the facilities are not perfect enough, for the time being, there are only residential buildings, she helps her roommate to deliver something here, and the place is not even a public transport at all.

After she finished delivering it, the sky suddenly changed, and it began to rain heavily.

But there was no public place for her to shelter from the rain, and she couldn't get a taxi, she was drenched all over, and the heavy rain hurt on her body, and there were all kinds of residential buildings next to her, all of which were iron fences, and there was no shelter.

Xu Jing covered her head with her hands, feeling that she was unlucky, and she was about to collapse.

There was no way to continue to run forward, even if it was dark, she couldn't run to school, she finally found a corner and squatted, took out her mobile phone, and wanted to call her roommate to pick her up, but one by one, no one answered.

"Isn't it!"

She whispered into her phone, and the screen was already alerted that the battery was low.

After unsuccessfully dialing for half a day, she had to put her mobile phone in the palm of her hand, Xu Jinghao wrinkled her face, and sighed helplessly.

Suddenly, someone's stern eyebrows flashed in his head.

Almost in the next second, she slid onto the words "Yu Qicheng" on the phone book.

With her eyes focused on it, Xu Jinghao struggled again and again, but still dialed the phone, and the moment she dialed, she didn't know whether she was forced to ask for help helplessly, or if she had a little selfishness.

After connecting, she opened her breath and said, "Little uncle, can you come and pick me up?"

"My phone is running out of battery! I don't bring an umbrella, it's all poured into soup! This piece is remote, I can't get a taxi, if it's convenient, can you come to Aijian ......?"

As if she was afraid of being rejected by him, she hurriedly said, but when she talked about the back, she suddenly stopped making a sound.

Xu Jing took a good look at the phone with a black screen, and the dog's heart was gone.

With her wet hands on her knees, she looked at the heavy rain of beans on the concrete floor, she looked at the sky that was getting darker and darker, Gu Yao cried without tears, and waited for the rain to stop.

Just when she didn't know what to do, a pair of military boots stopped in front of her.

Xu Jinghao looked up and saw Yu Qicheng holding an umbrella, there was a jeep with a military license plate parked behind him, and the windshield wipers on the front windshield were swinging back and forth, she suddenly shouted in surprise, "Little uncle!"

"Let's get in the car first. Yu Qicheng saw her appearance and said in a deep voice.

"Okay!" Xu Jing nodded like pounding garlic.

Yu Qicheng stretched out his hand to help her, and when his eyes fell, he deliberately swept over her right foot when she stood up, and it seemed that there was no big problem.

They walked side by side to the car, because there was only one umbrella, which still couldn't fit two people, and seeing that she was soaking wet, Yu Qicheng moved the umbrella towards her.

Who knows, she raised her hand to block back.

"What to do!" Yu Qicheng frowned.

"Don't worry about me, you can fight!" Xu Jinghao shrugged her shoulders, and water droplets slipped down her face, "I'm already virtuous anyway, don't drench you in soup again, you'll catch a cold!"

Yu Qicheng pursed the corners of his lips, and his eyes were incomprehensible.

After a few big strides, the two finally got into the car.

Because of her persistence, Yu Qicheng was not drenched in the slightest, and his body was still dry.

On the contrary, she didn't have a dry place all over her body, her sleeves and trouser legs were dripping down her cheeks, her refreshing ponytail was already messy, and the strands of hair on her forehead and sideburns stuck to her face.

Just like when he first appeared, her two almond eyes were still shining.

The expression on his face was the same as when a puppy was found by its owner.

"Little uncle, my phone is out of battery, and I only said half of it on the phone, and I thought you couldn't come!" Xu Jing looked at him with a sigh of relief.

"I installed positioning. Yu Qicheng said lightly.

On the other side of the line, she mentioned that her phone was about to run out of battery, so he immediately activated the positioning, otherwise the ice city was so big, how could he find her.

After Xu Jing heard this, her eyes widened in surprise, "In my mobile phone?"

"Mine. Yu Qicheng frowned.

Pull out a box of tissues from the storage compartment and hand it to her.

"Oh oh!" Xu Jinghao couldn't stand his own logic.

He took the paper and wiped his face, he picked up the mobile phone he put on the workbench and studied it, thinking that it was just a smart phone, and he couldn't find anything special, "I can't see it, where did I install it?"

"High-tech. Yu Qicheng's eyebrows raised slightly.

"......" Xu Jinghao was completely thundered.

Yu Qicheng turned on the warm air in the car to the maximum, started the car again, glanced at the rearview mirror out of the corner of his eye, and turned the car towards the main road, and the wipers on the front windshield swayed rhythmically from side to side.

Xu Jinghao turned her head to look at him, her side face was resolute and expressionless.

Normally, the two of them are not really related, and what is not good is only nominal. Lin Jing is a stepdaughter, and she has no blood relationship with her, not to mention that she has passed away, and he can even ignore her.

Xu Jinghao bit her lip and said hesitantly, "Little uncle, do you think I'm annoying?"

"It's fine. Yu Qicheng replied.

Xu Jinghao couldn't figure out the meaning of his two words.

With her legs and kneecaps together, she shrunk slightly, her eyes fixed on the equally wet toes.

Not to mention him, even she feels that she is a little too troublesome, since she realized that now, she almost always troubles him, if she were an ordinary person, she should also feel annoyed......

"Is it cold?"

Yu Qicheng squinted at her and asked in a deep voice.

Although the car was warm, the clothes on her body were all wet, and such an extreme mixture of cold and heat made Xu Jinghao feel cold and cold, and her fingertips trembled uncontrollably.

She didn't hide it either, nodding honestly, "Well, it's a little ......"

It's okay not to say it, but she couldn't help but shudder when she said it.

Yu Qicheng frowned, noticing that her lips were already purple, and now she was still some distance away from the city, and it was still in peak season and it was raining, and the speed of the car itself was slow, if she was allowed to keep it like this, she would have to go directly to the hospital later.

He turned the steering wheel to the right and pulled over to the side of the road.

"What's wrong?" Xu Jinghao asked in surprise.

Yu Qicheng stretched his arm back and brought her a paper bag on the back seat, "You can't go on like this, I have clothes behind me, you can change it." ”

Xu Jinghao took it with both hands, and inside was a clean set of men's sportswear.

It should be worn for fitness on weekdays, and he can vaguely smell the male breath that belongs to him.

"It should be alright?" she blinked.

"No, I can't. Yu Qicheng insisted, "You change it in the car, I'll wait outside, and call me when the time comes." ”

As he spoke, he lowered his head and picked up the umbrella at his feet.

Xu Jing glanced out of the car window, the rain only increased, and the cement floor was smoking.

There wasn't even a figure on the road, even with an umbrella, his feet and trouser legs were spared, and she was afraid that he would get wet, so she grabbed his arm before he pushed the door open.

Even through clothes, it is very sturdy.

Seeing this, Yu Qicheng frowned and looked back at her.

"Little uncle, it's raining too much outside, you better not go down!" Xu Jinghao hugged the bag and laughed at Mimi.

"Then how do you change it?" Yu Qicheng asked rhetorically.

"I'll change it in the back, and then you don't have to look back!" Xu Jinghao said his own method, seeing that the folds between his eyebrows were deeper, he patted him on the shoulder wantonly, "Anla! I won't mind!"

"I know you're not interested in the opposite sex, you probably don't even think you're the opposite sex! This is the same as you treat you and me as buddies, and I treat you as sisters......"

"......" Yu Qicheng looked incomprehensible.

"Now that you have said it, you don't have to hide it from me in the future!"

Xu Jinghao thought he was pretending, with a generous expression, "It's not an unsightly thing to like a man, I can still accept it, and support you spiritually!"

As soon as her words fell, Yu Qicheng suddenly came over.

Xu Jing was so frightened that the bag in his arms almost fell, and when he heard him grit his teeth, "What did you just say!"

...

...
