Red Dust Tune: Cherry Falling King's Heart

When they got up the next day, the two of them were silent by coincidence, as if this could cover up the "crazy thoughts" of last night, but they didn't want to fall into even greater embarrassment.

Zhong Wanjun finished his own milk in one gulp, reached for the milk jug, and wanted to pour another glass, but Qing Ying also wanted to drink another glass, so their hands touched each other just like that.

Qing Ying and Zhong Wanjun looked at each other, and after two seconds, both of them withdrew their hands together.

"I'm sorry." Zhong Wanjun apologized awkwardly and clumsily, then lowered his head and ate the tomato sauce on the bread with a fork, as if the red color of the tomato sauce could cover the redness of his cheeks.

Although she didn't know why Zhong Wanjun wanted to apologize, Qingying still said politely: "It's okay." Her right hand gently stroked the fingertips of her left hand, where Zhong Wanjun's temperature seemed to still remain.

The two continued to be silent in embarrassment. For a while, the only sound left on the table was the collision of knives and forks with plates.

Qingying's cell phone rang to break the silence.

"Hey, Qi Tian, ​​what's the matter?"

Zhong Wanjun instantly raised his head and stared at Qingying, he also noticed that he cared about the name Qi Tian... Zhong Wanjun lowered his head again, what is there to care about, Qingying wants to have a boyfriend is her freedom, The person I like is Lei Ting.

"Does it have to be today?...Okay, then we'll see you later. Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Qing Ying asked Zhong Wanjun, "Are you going to work today?"

Zhong Wanjun said: "It was supposed to be a holiday, but I adjusted the time and moved it to the time of Chinese New Year. I'm going to the police station this afternoon. I originally planned to stay at home or go out with you in the morning. , what's wrong?"

Qingying looked apologetic: "Qi Tian asked me to go to the dance studio, because he will also ask for leave to return to China for the New Year, and if I go alone, I don't have anyone I know well, so he wants to take me there today while he is here. Take a look and get acquainted with the environment."

"Well, that's good," Zhong Wanjun nodded, saying against his will, "I'll take you there later." He cut a piece of bread.

Qingying hesitated for a moment, then said: "Don't bother you."

The movements of Zhong Wanjun's hands froze slightly.He raised his head and looked at Qingying.

Qing Ying said: "Qi Tian and I have an appointment to meet at the gate of the school, and then we will take the car together. Qi Tian wants me to familiarize myself with how to get from the school to the dance studio. The school is right in front of our house, so I can go by myself." As she spoke, she carefully observed Zhong Wanjun's facial expression.

Zhong Wanjun's expression didn't change: "He's very thoughtful. Well then, go on your own." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head, cut off the bread, picked it up, put it in his mouth, and chewed carefully.

Qingying was disappointed in her heart, Zhong Wanjun's expression was the same, he really didn't care about going out with other men alone... She just said, the person Wanjun likes is Lei Ting, how could he be jealous of herself Woolen cloth. "Okay." Qing Ying heard her own voice was also very flat.

§

After Qing Ying went out, Zhong Wanjun looked at the documents of the police station alone at home irritably.

"Recently *drug* traffickers in Central America have been active, and there is news that there is a *drug* gang selling *drug* drugs to Western Europe..."

Zhongmei... During the month when he and Qingying depended on each other for life, he was trapped in Zhongmei.

"...In this regard, we decided to set up a special task force to crack down on drug dealers. This operation is officially named 'Operation Red Sakura'."

Chiying... Qingying's name means blue cherry blossoms. He remembered that the scientific name of this color of cherry blossoms is "Yuyihuang", which is a very precious cherry blossom. Just like Qingying, people cherish and cherish .

"...Regarding this operation, we require all departments to work together. According to the current intelligence, we will strive to disintegrate the drug trafficking organization that has arrived in London within seven days."

Seven days...Qing Ying and Qi Tian went out together, Qing Ying was so afraid of the cold, she wondered if Qi Tian took good care of her.

"Hey!" Zhong Wanjun slammed the document in his hand irritably, no, he can't read it at all, his mind is full of green cherry blossoms now.He scratched his hair, what was wrong with him, why did he keep thinking about Qingying all the time?Isn't she just going out with other men?What is there to be unhappy about?Could it be that he was really jealous as Che said?

Zhong Wanjun let out a foul breath, forget it, don't think about it.Instead of staying at home and worrying, why not go to work at the police station.

After making up his mind, Zhong Wanjun tidied up a bit, then went out and headed towards Scotland Yard.

Driving by the car, passing by the wind chime shop that Qing Ying visited with her when she first came to London last time, Zhong Wanjun hesitated for a moment, but stopped the car.Not long ago he accidentally broke a corner of Qing Ying's cherry blossom wind chime, Qing Ying carefully glued the damaged part.But broken things are always ugly, so I'd better buy another one as a gift for her, but I don't know if there are any identical cherry blossom wind chimes in the store.

Zhong Wanjun walked into the wind chime shop, and the wind chime by the door made crisp and clear sounds.He found the same cherry blossom wind chime without any effort, and when he was about to check out, Zhong Wanjun's eyes were attracted by another wind chime—others may not be able to see what is engraved on that Chinese wind chime The character, but Zhong Wanjun recognized it, it was the character for "雷".

Lei Ting, the name jumped out of memory again, and Zhong Wanjun suddenly felt as if he had passed away.Now I and Qingying are happy and happy in London, and I don't know how Lei Ting is doing in Taipei.Did she get into the university of her choice?Can she solve the business problems of Lei's Group smoothly?And did Rex, the half-brother, secretly make things difficult for her?Zhong Wanjun shook his head, at that moment, he really felt that he really missed Lei Ting.

Zhong Wanjun hesitated for a moment, and said to the salesperson, "Please help me wrap this up too." He pointed to the wind chime with the word "雷".

"OK, just a second."

After paying for the two wind chimes, Zhong Wanjun got back into the car and started the car.After a few roads, Scotland Yard is two junctions away.Zhong Wanjun stepped on the brakes, waited boredly for the red light, and gently tapped the steering wheel with his hands.

The urban areas of London are not like domestic ones. There are long queues and traffic jams at every turn, and red lights quickly turn into green lights.Zhong Wanjun started the car, and was about to step on the accelerator, but suddenly saw the scene in the rearview mirror outside the car, and then froze.

In the picture reflected in the rearview mirror, Qing Ying and Qi Tian were walking on the road.Qingying didn't know if she was slipped by the snow that was not cleaned up, she almost fell down, Qi Tian at the side hurriedly supported her.The movements of the two seemed very intimate, so intimate that Zhong Wanjun felt dazzling!

I saw Qing Ying smilingly saying something to Qi Tian, ​​probably to thank her, and then Qi Tian also smiled.After supporting Qing Ying to stand up, he patted Qing Ying's head, and then pulled Qing Ying's ponytail.Qing Ying was so angry that she punched him, but the smile on her face did not diminish.That bright smile seemed to penetrate the air and could be transmitted into the car and into Zhong Wanjun's ears, it was crisp but piercing.

The joints of Zhong Wanjun's hands holding the steering wheel have turned white.

The green light was on for a long time, and the horns of the cars behind were one after another.Zhong Wanjun, who was staring at the two men firmly, was called back by the sound of the horn. After he glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car expressionlessly, he stepped on the accelerator, and the car shot out immediately.

The car was driving on the road, although Zhong Wanjun looked at the road in front of his eyes, he kept thinking about the scene just now in his mind.In the end, Zhong Wanjun parked the car on the side of the road, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Qingying's number.If he remembered correctly, the road to Dream Dance Studio didn't go this way.

"Hello, Wanjun."

"Qing Ying, where are you now?" Zhong Wanjun tried his best to make his voice appear normal.

"Me? I'm in the dance studio. What's wrong?" Qing Ying's voice came.

lie!Zhong Wanjun held the phone tightly: "It's nothing, I just wanted to see if you're done. Since you're still busy, I'll hang up and not bother you." Don't disturb your date with that Qi Tian!

"Uh... sorry, I can't accompany you today." Qing Ying's voice was full of apology.

"It's okay. You are busy, I'm hanging up." Without saying goodbye, and without waiting for Qing Ying to say goodbye, Zhong Wanjun pressed the phone.A feeling of being cheated permeated every cell in his body, this feeling was like a fire, he almost wanted to throw away his reason, and immediately drove back to catch the two of them.But obviously, this was impossible. In the end, Zhong Wanjun honked his horn so hard that the small taxi in front turned off in fright.

Very good, Geng Qingying, this is the way you love me!

Stepping on the accelerator and turning the steering wheel, Zhong Wanjun drove towards Scotland Yard full of anger.

On the other side, after Qing Ying hung up the phone, Qi Tian asked strangely: "Why did you lie to your roommate that we are in the studio?"

Qing Ying shrugged: "He didn't have to go to work this morning, he just wanted to be with me. He is a very sensitive person, if you let him know that I have finished going to the studio, but I didn't go home, but I was hanging out with you , I might feel uncomfortable. Let’s keep it a secret.”

Qi Tian apologized and said: "It's all my fault, I didn't tell you clearly that it only takes a short while to see the studio. Originally, after you finished watching the studio and rushed back, you should still have time to walk around with him of."

Qing Ying hurriedly said: "Don't think so, I should be the one apologizing. It's a big holiday, and I will trouble you to accompany me to see the studio."

Qi Tian smiled: "Hey, it's nothing, my friends here, foreign nationals are all celebrating the holidays with their families now, and Chinese nationals are also working part-time to earn overtime pay because they don't have the habit of celebrating holidays. There are really no ones like me who don't have to go to work. If it weren't for you to accompany me, I would probably be bored and sleep at home all day today."

Qingying smiled: "Well, it's boring to sleep at home, and we can talk when we go out for a walk. So where are we going to talk next?"

"I know there is a Chinese restaurant not far in front, which is quite authentic. It's almost lunch time, why don't we have lunch earlier, and it can be empty."

"Okay."

"Let's go, then, to the lunch that is beckoning us!"

§

Qing Ying felt very strange, because she hadn't seen Zhong Wanjun for several days since Christmas.It's not that Zhong Wanjun is on a business trip, but since Zhong Wanjun is indeed living at home, they haven't seen each other for several days, and they communicate with each other using post-it notes.To put it simply, Wan Jun has been leaving early and returning late in the past few days.But in normal times, even if Zhong Wanjun needs to get up early because of a big case, he has formed the habit of notifying himself one day in advance so that he can get up earlier to make breakfast for him; He informed her, but got up quietly and went to the police station in silence, making Qingying not even sure if he had breakfast.Qing Ying didn't dare to call to ask, for fear that it would be bad if Zhong Wanjun was in a meeting, so she could only send Zhong Wanjun a WeChat message.This further caused the dilemma that the communication between the two was limited to text.

While thinking about what happened to her and Wanjun recently, Qing Ying washed Zhong Wanjun's clothes—that's right, after "living together" with Qing Ying for a year, Zhong Wanjun's laziness has been fully supported by Qing Ying. Laundry, cooking, cleaning, Qing Ying did all the housework.If these two people form a family, it is a typical man who dominates the outside and the woman dominates the inside.

Qing Ying was washing clothes, but Zhong Wanjun came back in a hurry.As soon as he entered the house, before he even had time to change his shoes, Zhong Wanjun went upstairs and rushed into the study, where he searched for a while.

Qing Ying heard the movement, washed her hands and came to the study: "Wan Jun, why did you come back suddenly? What are you looking for?"

After Zhong Wanjun rummaged through the files on the desk, but to no avail, he asked Qing Ying: "Where did you put the red folder files I brought back last two weeks?"

red folder?Qingying blinked.

Before Qing Ying could react, Zhong Wanjun had already dropped the document bag in his hand and cursed away: "How many times have I told you that all the documents I put on the desk are for use, you Don't move around, don't touch me! Do you ignore my words?! Have you heard anything seriously? Or have you been perfunctory? Geng Qingying, let me tell you, I don't need your perfunctory, you If you're impatient and don't want to, you can tell me directly, I'm OK. But I hate what you're doing now! Did you hear me clearly?!"

Qingying didn't move at all, listening to Zhong Wanjun's scolding without saying a word.After Zhong Wanjun finished scolding, she looked at Zhong Wanjun, who was still angry, and said calmly: "I followed your instructions and never touched your documents. As for the red folder you mentioned, last time you stayed up late in the study before Christmas, when I brought you a midnight snack, you said that the files inside should not be used, and asked me to put them in a filing cabinet aside .” She walked to the filing cabinet, pulled out a red file folder, and handed it to Zhong Wanjun: “See if it’s this one.”

Zhong Wanjun took it and flipped through it a few times, but didn't speak.

"If you have nothing else to do, I'm going out first. I still have to do laundry." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhong Wanjun to reply, Qingying turned and left.

Zhong Wanjun looked at the back of Qingying leaving, and suddenly wanted to rush up and hug her tightly. He knew that what he said just now was too much; he also knew that if he thought about it carefully, he would definitely be able to find that document. , he was just making use of the topic to vent the anger in his heart these few days to Qingying.

But Zhong Wanjun finally restrained this impulse, he didn't hug Qing Ying, and he didn't apologize, but quietly watched Qing Ying leave.

He stood where he was, clutching the folder tightly, feeling extremely bored in his heart.The anger was vented, but he didn't feel the usual relief.

The urging call from his subordinate brought Zhong Wanjun back to his senses, and he took the documents and left home again.

Hearing the sound of the phone talking outside and the door closing on the first floor, Qing Ying, who was washing clothes on the bathroom laundry table, finally couldn't help the grievance and sadness in her heart, and cried silently.Tears ran across her fair face and fell into the foam on the laundry table, disappearing in an instant.

Qing Ying raised her hand to wipe her tears, but forgot that she still had laundry detergent on her hand, and accidentally wiped the laundry detergent into her eyes, causing her eyes to burn.Qing Ying hurriedly rinsed it with cold water.

The cold water washed away the laundry detergent, but it couldn't wash away the burning feeling.Sitting on the bright tiled floor, Qingying slipped and cried bitterly, but she didn't know whether the tears were from the sting of the laundry detergent or from the sting in her heart.

§

After the long and dull meeting, Zhong Wanjun returned to the office and slumped on the soft and comfortable leather chair.It was dark outside.London's latitude is high, and it always gets dark before four o'clock in winter.

Zhong Wanjun rubbed the center of his brows, thoughts in his mind returned to Qingying involuntarily.These days he is really abnormal, when faced with Qing Ying and Qi Tian being together, he can't help getting angry...or rather, jealous.

Zhong Wanjun doesn't want to think about the word "jealousy", because with this word, it must be the fact that he has fallen in love with Qing Ying.These days he is avoiding Qingying, not because he is angry that Qingying lied to him, but because he is afraid, afraid that he will fall in love with Qingying for a long time, afraid that he will forget Lei Ting, afraid... that he will betray Lei Ting emotion.

Zhong Wanjun shook his head, no, now is not the time to think about it.What he said to Qing Ying today was really too much, why not...have a good meal with her tonight and apologize.

Just do what you say, Zhong Wanjun picked up his mobile phone and texted Qing Ying word by word: "I won't work overtime tonight, and I'll be home for dinner in a while."

After the text message was sent, Zhong Wanjun began to organize the documents on the table, while anxiously waiting for Qing Ying's reply.Soon, Qingying's text message came: "Okay." It was a very simple word, but it inexplicably made Zhong Wanjun feel at ease.Fortunately, Qing Ying is still willing to talk to him, Qing Ying...should not be too angry.

Zhong Wanjun comforted himself, wasn't it the same last time, although he scolded Qingying, but Qingying must understand him, go shopping and accompany her, she should not be angry.This time, after the case of the drug trafficking group is over, he will take Qingying back to China for the New Year, and then go to another place for vacation. Qingying should be happier if he does this.

He quickly packed up his things, and as soon as it was time to get off work, Zhong Wanjun left the police station and drove home.As soon as he entered the house, he could smell the aroma of food.

"Hey, it smells so good." Zhong Wanjun pretended to be relaxed, trying not to make the atmosphere between the two of them unhappy due to the influence of the day.

Qing Ying walked into the restaurant with the dishes, saw Zhong Wanjun opposite, and said flatly: "It's just in time to come back, go wash your hands, it's ready to eat."

Zhong Wanjun put down his briefcase, the smile on his face froze.He felt that something was wrong this time.The last time he went home for dinner after losing his temper at Qingying, Qingying was obviously showing her face to him, but this time it was as if nothing had happened, calm and calm.It was this kind of calm that made Zhong Wanjun feel flustered.

Zhong Wanjun hesitated for a moment, and decided not to wait until after dinner to apologize.He walked towards Qing Ying: "Qing Ying."

Qing Ying ignored him, turned and went into the kitchen.

Zhong Wanjun hurriedly followed in: "What happened during the day... I didn't mean it, I'm sorry."

Qing Ying turned her back to Zhong Wanjun, and said calmly: "It's nothing, I didn't take it to heart, and you don't have to apologize. I know it's because of your work pressure." She turned around, "Go wash your hands, eat .”

"Oh." Zhong Wanjun nodded dully.that's all?Not angry or losing his temper, this matter just passed in Qing Ying's heart?

Zhong Wanjun felt uneasy, he saw that Qing Ying was busy loading the last dish, he took the initiative to take two sets of bowls and chopsticks to set it up - usually he never does this kind of work - then he washed his hands and sat down at the table Waiting for Qing Ying to eat together, she dared not move the chopsticks by herself as usual.

After waiting for a while, he saw that Qing Ying was still busy in the kitchen, as if she was washing the pot, so he said: "Qing Ying, let's wash the pot later, come and eat first, otherwise the dishes will be cold in a while."

Qing Ying's voice came from the kitchen: "You eat first."

Zhong Wanjun secretly thought, Qing Ying is... unwilling to eat at the same table as her?Still angry?

Qing Ying came out, she took off her apron, and said to Zhong Wanjun, "Why don't you eat? It doesn't suit your appetite?"

Zhong Wanjun hurriedly said: "No, no, I'm eating...it's delicious." It's rare for him to say something nice to coax people.Zhong Wanjun picked up a chopstick and started to eat, as if to prove what he said was true.

After Qingying glanced at him, she turned and went upstairs.

From time to time, Zhong Wanjun raised his head to peek at Qingying's back, and went upstairs at this time... Could it be that he really didn't want to eat at the same table as him?

Zhong Wanjun became anxious, Qing Ying must still be angry.She is a person who can't eat when she is angry. Qing Ying's body is not good, how can she do without eating!Now she doesn't want to eat with him, so he has to finish eating quickly before Qing Ying comes down to eat.

Thinking of this, Zhong Wanjun picked up the food in his mouth as fast as he could gobble it up.

Hmm... He wants to keep the dishes that Qingying likes to eat, so that Qingying will have more appetite after eating.Zhong Wanjun looked at the delicacies on the table, but suddenly found that spicy chicken diced, fish-flavored shredded pork, vegetarian three delicacies, lotus pond stir-fry...these are all dishes he likes to eat, what about Qingying's favorite dishes? ?Did she not burn?

After living with Qing Ying for a year, Zhong Wanjun discovered that Qing Ying always takes care of his taste every time she cooks, but what does Qing Ying like to eat?Zhong Wanjun thought about it carefully, but found that his mind was blank about this.

Zhong Wanjun poked the rice grains in the bowl with his chopsticks again and again, self-blame, guilt and heartache poured out.It turns out that for so long, Qing Ying has been thinking of him everywhere, she has almost forgotten herself, washing clothes, cooking...she takes care of him everywhere, what he can't think of, she thinks for him, Zhong Wanjun, Qing Ying this Generally treat you, but you take these for granted.You have never noticed her contribution, but you still lose your temper at her!Zhong Wanjun, how could you do this!

Seeing Qing Ying coming downstairs, Zhong Wanjun hastily put down his bowl and chopsticks, and went up to greet him: "Qing Ying..." The words of apology got stuck in his throat after seeing Qing Ying's attire.Zhong Wanjun asked, "Are you dressed like this... are you going out?"

Qingying nodded: "I have an appointment with Qi Tian, ​​you can eat by yourself, after you finish eating, put the bowl away, and I will wash it when I come back."

"Are you going to accompany that Qi Tian again?" Zhong Wanjun shouted in disbelief, "Don't go!"

Qing Ying stared at Zhong Wanjun: "Why?"

Without thinking, Zhong Wanjun blurted out: "I already sent you a text message saying I'm coming back for dinner, why are you going out?!"

Qing Ying said calmly: "Qi Tian and I have already made an appointment, before you sent me a text message, we agreed to have dinner together today."

"So you mean I'm a burden?" Zhong Wanjun said angrily.

Qingying had a headache: "That's not what I meant."

"Then why are you going out?!" Zhong Wanjun said, "I've already apologized for what happened during the day, what else do you want?!"

"Zhong Wanjun, can you explain something reasonable?!" The grievance in Qing Ying's heart was drawn out by Zhong Wanjun, and turned into anger, "I have an appointment with Qi Tian, ​​and you said you were coming back for dinner, and I would also I've cooked it for you, so what's wrong with me going out to the appointment now? What does this have to do with whether you apologize or not?!"

"Anyway, you are not allowed to go!"

"Why?"

"Don't go, don't go, just don't go!" Zhong Wanjun yelled at Qing Ying like a child having a temper tantrum.

Qing Ying suddenly stopped talking, she looked at Zhong Wanjun coldly.

Having never seen Qingying look at herself with such eyes, Zhong Wanjun shut up.He recalled his behavior just now, only to realize that he had unintentionally lost his temper at Qing Ying again, he looked at Qing Ying with some panic: "Qing Ying..."

"I don't think I made a wrong decision." Qing Ying said coldly.

"What decision?" Zhong Wanjun suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"I have asked Qi Tian to help me find a house to rent outside. I will move out a few years ago, and I won't get in your way here again." After finishing speaking, Qing Ying walked past Zhong Wanjun and left, leaving Zhong Wanjun behind Wan Jun froze in place alone.

The heavy slam of the door pulled Zhong Wanjun back.What did Qingying just say?She said...she's moving out?

"Hey!" Zhong Wanjun laughed back angrily.Turning around, he saw that the food on the table was still steaming, but Zhong Wanjun had no intention of eating.

"I have asked Qi Tian to help me find a house to rent outside. I will move out a few years ago, and I won't be here to obstruct your eyes again." Qingying's words hit her heart again, Zhong Wanjun got angry, and stretched out his hand Sweep all the food on the table to the floor.The bowls and plates fell to the ground with jingling bells and palm nuts, and they were broken into pieces of scum; the food fell on the ground and became a paste, and the oil stains quickly spread on the shiny ground.

After smashing something, Zhong Wanjun's chest was still heaving, and his anger showed no sign of dissipating at all.He picked up the key, and strode out the door with great strides, closing the door with such force that it seemed that the whole house was shaking.

The author has something to say: the jealous trio
