Zhou Qi actually drank wine, with a faint smell of wine. He didn't answer as if he hadn't heard Jian Yi's words, looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, and asked, "Don't you invite me in to sit?" ”

Jian Yi didn't speak, turned on the light and changed his shoes after entering the door, and then went inside.

Zhou Qi entered the door, looked around the room in a trance, and then walked to the living room.

Jian Yi was very tired, but she had to cheer up. She washed her face with cold water to make herself feel more refreshed, and then took two cans of drinks to the living room and put one in front of Zhou Qi.

She had only been here for a handful of years, she hadn't prepared anything, and she hadn't even bought tea when it was gone.

The cold liquid ran down her throat, and Jian Yi nestled into the sofa, not even wanting to move. The light of the chandelier overhead was scattered on her face, a little weak and a little tired.

The two didn't speak for a while, and Zhou Qi's mobile phone vibrated over and over again. He snapped a few times before finally quieting down.

In the end, it was Jian Yi who opened her mouth first, and she was now afraid of this oppressive atmosphere.

"What's the matter?"

"Are you with Peng Tongyuan?" Zhou Qi's voice was low, and he didn't wait for Jian Yi to speak, and continued: "In the mall that day, that was his parents, right?" ”

"Yes." Jian Yi was silent for a moment before replying.

Although he knew the answer earlier, when he heard her say it herself, Zhou Qi's inky pupils were covered with sadness a little bit. He smiled miserably and said, "Ah Yi, tell me, what can I do to atone for my sins?" ”

His voice was low and hoarse, full of sadness, and a handsome face was distorted and painful in the backlit shadows. The living room was quiet and oppressive, and Jane was overwhelmed by such depression. Her chest seemed to be pressed against a heavy stone, and she felt a momentary dizziness in the blurred light, a feeling of not knowing where she was.

She sat in such a trance, and she didn't even know when Zhou Qi left. She remembered Peng Tongyuan's illness in a trance, and covered her face tightly with her hands. She was afraid of the parting of everything.

Sadness, pain, fear, and fear were intertwined, and she finally fell asleep on the couch in extreme tiredness.

After the National Day holiday, when she returned home from dinner at Peng's house that day, she was about to go to bed after washing up when her mobile phone rang.

The call was from Peng Tongyuan, and she immediately answered it nervously after taking a look. She feared that his condition had changed, but fortunately it hadn't. Peng Tongyuan's voice was as gentle as ever, and he asked, "Have you slept?" ”

Jian Yi put his mind at ease, sighed, and said, "No, I just finished washing up, and I was ready to go to bed immediately." She knew that he had a fixed schedule and that he would have fallen asleep at this time, so she asked, "Can't you sleep?" ”

"I slept a little too much at noon." Peng Tongyuan replied.

He said that, and then fell silent on the other end of the phone.

He was a little strange today, and asked tentatively, "What's wrong?" Is there something uncomfortable? ”

"Nope." Peng Tongyuan hurriedly replied, paused slightly, and then said, "Ah Yi, don't come over again in the future." ”

Jian Yi couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Why?" ”

When he left tonight, he was obviously fine, why did he suddenly not want her to pass? Jian Yi's mind was in turmoil, and countless guesses flashed through his mind in an instant.

"No, I'm in good health now, I have the ability to take care of myself, and I don't need to be taken care of carefully." After a slight pause, he continued: "You and my parents take care of me so much, and I am very burdened. I don't want to be cared for as a patient, I want to live a normal life. ”

He laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Am I a little ignorant like this?" ”

"No, no." Jian Yi shook his head, and after a while, he answered in a low voice.

Peng Tongyuan didn't say anything more, and quickly hung up the phone.

He suddenly didn't let Jian Yi's heart empty in the past, and there were always some bad thoughts popping up, and even going to work was in a trance.

She knew that Peng Tongyuan didn't want to be disturbed, and after a few days, she still couldn't rest assured, so she called Fang Yin while he was sleeping at noon.

I don't know what Peng Tongyuan said to them, Fang Yin was not as enthusiastic as usual and polite. Jian Yi asked about Peng Tongyuan's body, and she also told her not to worry, they would take care of him and let her go to work well.

She didn't say much, and hung up the phone quickly after a few polite words.

Jian Yi didn't understand what made her attitude change abruptly, and she was powerless to investigate anything, and the whole person was depressed.

National Day did not go to the old lady's side, she took advantage of the weekend to pass. It was the autumn harvest season, and the yard was full of golden corn. Aunt Qing said that she would raise a few more chickens and geese in the coming year, and these corns would just come in handy.

Jian Yi helped all afternoon, listening to Aunt Qing and the old lady talk about interesting things in the countryside. In the evening she lay on a bed with the old lady, and although it was still a little hot in the city, the evening in the countryside was so cool that she had to be covered with a quilt.

Perhaps because this time was so depressing, she whimpered in pain in the middle of the night. When she woke up, her face was full of tears, the lights in the room had been turned on, and the old lady was looking at her anxiously.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with our Ah Yi, is someone bullying you? ”

Jian Yi looked at the old lady and once again had the urge to cry. She suddenly had the feeling of returning to her childhood, buried her face in the old lady's arms, shook her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "No, it's a nightmare." ”

The old lady put her mind at ease, gently stroked her head with her thin hand, turned off the light, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, dreams are all the opposite." Go to sleep, there's grandma. ”

Jian Yi couldn't help but wet her eyes, and fell asleep again in a daze under the comfort of the old lady.

She stayed with Lao Taitian for two days and didn't tell her about Peng Tongyuan's illness.

After returning to the city, she wanted to see Peng Tongyuan, but in the end she didn't go. Only schedule the work to the full. When you travel for business or socialize, you have little free time.

She still calls Fang Yin regularly, but usually it's not her answering, but Peng's father. Peng's father treated her as before, telling her that Peng Tongyuan's condition was fine, and he had been cooperating with the treatment, so that she didn't have to worry.

Time flies so fast that it seems like winter has entered in the blink of an eye. This year's winter arrived exceptionally early, with a light snowfall after the onset of winter. It was short-lived, and it stopped in less than an hour. By the time the end of the day, the snow had almost melted, and only a little snow was left on the top of the building.
