Not up yet. "

"Then get up quickly." I reacted: "Ling Lanqiu, don't think that I will help you raise your child. I hate children the most. If you die, I will definitely throw your child to an orphanage."

The phone was silent all night, and I woke up with dozens of calls.

Qi Chu didn't expect that I would sneak away while he was bandaging Jing Moyan's wound, let alone that I would not spend the night in any place he knew.

Ling Lanqiu's phone finally rang while eating breakfast.

At that time, I was chatting with Ling Lanqiu about the artists she had taken over over the years. When we first talked about Milin, Ling Lanqiu motioned for me to be quiet and picked up the phone.

"Well, okay, I'll tell the other side..." She promised a few words, covered her phone, and told me: "Qi Chu asked for three more days off."

It would be too naive to want to find me in three days.

"Good job!" Ling Lanqiu hung up the phone and praised me: "I have been unhappy with Jing Moyan for a long time."

"You also know Jing Moyan? Doesn't the Jing family don't recognize him very much?"

Ling Lanqiu knew she had made a slip of the tongue, and rounded up again: "I met you twice in private."

"Because of Qi Chu?" I raised my eyebrows: "Qi Chu often takes him out?"

Ling Lanqiu frowned as she tapped the teacup with her red nails.

"Xiao Lin, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"speak."

"It's said that a big coincidence doesn't work, but I think that if you are such a smart person, if you put away all your means and don't use it, in the end..." She hesitated: "In the end, it would be too much to lose to some people with bad intentions." pity."

I know that she has violated the precept by saying this, after all, she is someone who can talk to me about "drawing away from emotions" even when Cheng Ke is addicted to drugs outside her door.

"Ling Lanqiu, if you were given a chance to do it all over again, would you still go this far?"

"No. I won't get to know the two of them." She retorted: "But you and Qi Chu are far from this point."

"I want to see how far we can go." I laughed: "It's still wrong if I don't use tricks, but if I use tricks, the crime may become a sinister philistine. What's yours is always yours."

"You are too arrogant, Xiao Lin. You don't bother to fight for it, and you don't bother to explain it. Your passive arrogance will kill you sooner or later."

"Miss Ling, with people as a mirror, you can see gains and losses."

"Yes, yes, I am not qualified to say you." She drank a whole cup of tea angrily: "If I die unfortunately, please fill in the column of death due to arrogance, I hope Qi Chu will not be so stupid, otherwise You are worse than me, and no one will fill out the death report for you."

I laughed out loud at her.

After spending all morning in Ling Lanqiu's ward, he finally had to leave.

Because of my mother, I learned early on that everyone in this world is a lonely individual.

But because of Qi Chu, I haven't tasted much loneliness.I chased him wishfully, like Kuafu every day, chasing him so that my life became lively.

I knew early on that he didn't like me as much as I liked him.

But I just know that I haven't suffered much from it.

That's why I was so embarrassed this time.

I stayed in the hotel until the second day, and I was going to sneak home to get clothes while Qi Chu was not at home.

For this reason, I colluded with Ling Lanqiu and asked her to find a reason to lure Qi Chu away, and then I went home again.

I drove home by myself, and the outside was full, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the underground parking lot.

In fact, I don’t know where my fear of underground parking lots came from. I myself grew up in the family area of ​​the school, and I have never seen any underground parking lots, let alone have a shadow of this thing.But I was just afraid, afraid of shaking physically. The first time I found myself afraid of this thing was five years ago, when I first lived with Qi Chu, I just moved, bought a car, and once went to the supermarket to buy a lot of things. Going up from the parking lot, I got off the car, and before I saw the elevator door in the parking lot, my legs started to feel weak, and I couldn't even stand still.In the end, I had no choice but to go back the same way and take the elevator upstairs from the first floor.

After that, I haven't tried underground parking.

This time I will drive in, in fact, it is a bit of a rush, thinking in my heart that life will always pass, I can't live without entering the underground parking lot, why not take advantage of today to break the precept.

As a result, I regretted it as soon as the car came in.

The parking lot is full of cars with lights on. I don’t know what I’m afraid of, but my heart beats faster, I’m sweating all over my body, and I feel like I’m exhausted. I lean on the seat, my heart seems to be tightened by something. The rhythm is forgotten.

My eyes went black for a while, and I was paralyzed in the seat for almost 2 minutes before slowly recovering.

After the initial stress reaction, the anger in my heart also rose.

A living person cannot be suffocated by urine.I want to see today, even if I get into this elevator, what will happen.

But as soon as I got out of the car, I noticed something was wrong.

Because my scalded leg was not yet able to use my strength, I hopped on one leg. The slower I was, the more panicked I became. The cars in the entire underground garage were lined up neatly. I don’t know why I suddenly felt infinite fear in my heart, as if someone was chasing after me. generally.

"Run!" I could almost hear the voice in my heart yelling, and my heartbeat suddenly accelerated. I didn't know what I was afraid of, but I just felt that if I didn't run, I would end badly.

All the blood boiled up, as if it was hitting my veins, I couldn't breathe, I didn't dare to look back, I almost hit the wall at the elevator entrance, and pressed the button hard.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw a dark shadow behind me.

However the elevator is still on the 17th floor.

That's too late.

I desperately pressed the elevator button, but still felt that the people behind me were approaching step by step. I didn't know why I was so scared. Obviously, I was also an adult man, and there was still room for struggle.

But I know "he" has a weapon.

The sound of footsteps approaching from behind, I was just about to turn back when the elevator door opened slowly.

A hand reached out and pulled me into the elevator with so much force that we both tumbled together.

The moment the elevator door closed, I saw clearly who the black figure behind me was.

It turned out to be a girl.

Young, short and fat, wearing a black coat.

She has a gun in her hand.

It wasn't until the elevator slowly ascended that I gradually came back to my senses.

"Who are you?" I questioned the man who was still trying to hold me up. "Who is that girl outside? Why does she have a gun in her hand?"

He raised his head slowly, it was a completely unfamiliar face, very young, very good-looking, this is a face that should enter the entertainment industry, even though he has a flat head, pointed chin, and flawless skin, he There are very beautiful eyebrows and eyes, the tails of the eyes are raised, like a fox, so beautiful that it is almost dazzling.

It is a face that is unforgettable.

But I don't know him.

He didn't answer my question, just approached suddenly.

I instinctively backed up, leaning my back against the inner wall of the elevator, and there was no way to retreat. He bent down and stretched out his hand, and I dodged.

But he didn't touch my face.

He half knelt down and looked at the gauze wrapped around my leg.

I should hide, but his expression is forbearing and gentle, unlike a stranger who has never met before, his fingers are slender, and there is a ring on the place of the ring finger, and he lightly touched the gauze wrapped around my leg .

"How did you get hurt?" His voice was his own.

I have a sense of familiarity, as if he should be here, like the closest person, asking about my wound.

But I'm not crazy after all.

"Who are you?" I looked at him coldly: "Say it quickly, or I'll call the police."

He raised his eyes and looked at me sadly.

"You don't remember me." I seem to hear his eyes say to me, as if I should know him, remember him, as if I shouldn't forget him.

But he didn't say anything.

He just lowered his head and gently kissed the gauze covering my wound.

His attitude is so gentle, as if he and I are not strangers, but the closest people.

"You'll remember me," he told me in a sad voice, "like you'll remember where the capital of Madagascar is."

The elevator reached the seventeenth floor, and I ran out as soon as the door opened.

Even being chased at gunpoint in an underground parking lot just now didn't scare me as much as being in an elevator with this stranger.

It was a kind of extreme panic, as if some catastrophe was about to happen, as if my life would collapse uncontrollably if I stayed with him for just one more second.

I locked the door twice and picked up the phone to call the police.

I said I just had a girl with a gun in the underground parking lot and a stranger who kept following me.I called Ling Lanqiu again and told her to tell Qi Chu not to go home for the next two days, find something for him to do, and hire two more security guards for him.

I dug out the tea leaves from the refrigerator I didn’t know how long ago, made myself a cup of hot tea, took a shower, put on my nightgown, and sat next to the breakfast table in the kitchen with the tea in my hands. Although the house has floor heating, I still feel uncontrollable shaking.

I instinctively don't think about what that person said to me, the way he looked at me, and then those words rang in my mind again and again.

I sat for a while, then suddenly stood up.

I would like to know what is the capital of Madagascar.

Since the phone fell into the water last time, things have been going on, and I haven’t bought a new one. I dug it out in the drawer, but it still can’t be turned on.

I can only go into the study and turn on the computer.

The computer has not been used for a long time, and a bunch of software popped up as soon as I turned it on. I waited for a long time, but the mouse did not respond to any point, and I was so anxious that I wanted to smash the keyboard.

Qi Chu's voice came from the living room.

"Xiao Lin, are you home?
