alternate performance

The window was not closed when going to bed after dinner, and the night wind blew into the bedroom and raised a corner of the curtain. Gu Congran saw that it was dark outside, so he realized that he had slept for so long.

He leaned against the head of the bed with his forehead propped up, and glanced at the electronic alarm clock beside him, it was almost eleven o'clock.

After being yelled at without end, Gu Congran asked unexpectedly, "What's the matter?"

"Why do you still have the face to ask!" Zhu Huiting punched the passenger seat, and Fang Rui in the back row hurriedly wiped his face and pressed his arm: "Brother Zhu calm down, get out of the car, I'll come open."

Changing places with Fang Rui, Zhu Huiting said angrily, "It's fine if you don't want to attend the grand ceremony, you didn't even watch it?"

"I had a fever, so I went to sleep after eating." Gu Congran's throat hurt as soon as he spoke, and he got out of bed and closed the window tightly.

"Damn, why didn't you say you were sick?" Zhu Huiting was so angry that he didn't even care about it. "Drink more hot water, and take a look online by the way!"

Gu Congran's head was dizzy, but he woke up after being yelled at by the other party. After hanging up, he saw countless unread messages piled up, and his uneasiness became stronger.He hurriedly posted on Weibo, and the red word "explosion" on the hot search interface was shocking, and the two names on the topic shocked him even more.

Clicking on the popular video, he watched the 4-minute video without stopping for a second, and his face became stiffer as he went further, until he heard Xu Chenhe say the phrase "never come back" with a smile, he turned off the phone in panic.

What are you doing?Why did Xu Chenhe admit everything when he woke up?

Gu Congran's fingertips were cold, he held his arm to absorb the body temperature, and tapped his brow to prove that he was not in a dream.Everything was going in an unbelievable direction. He picked up his phone again, ignored the missed calls from his family and colleagues, and eagerly dialed Xu Chenhe's number.

While waiting for Xu Chenhe to connect, Gu Congran casually put on a coat, opened the bedroom door and ran downstairs, and ran into the housekeeper who was mopping the floor in the living room. The other party was startled by his pale face: "Mr. Gu is going out? Why don't you take a good rest?"

"I'm busy." Gu Congran turned off his phone, walked around the wet floor, and picked up the car key from the locker.

The housekeeper threw away the mop and came over with a medicine box in his hands: "Take an anti-fever medicine first, there is no way for you to be sick."

Antipyretics have the side effect of making people sleepy, so Gu Congran refused to take them, and was so quarreled by the nagging housekeepers that he drank a glass of sugar and salt water before going out.

There were few cars on the road, so Gu Congran didn't care if he was speeding or not, he drove all the way to Fujinyuan, stopped the car, opened the door and ran to the elevator.The rising speed of the car was so slow that he was anxious. He took out his mobile phone and continued to dial Xu Chenhe, but as expected, he was reminded that the phone could not be connected temporarily.

803's electronic lock has been removed by Xu Chenhe since the last time an illegitimate meal touched it. All the passwords and fingerprints were removed. The key was not with him. Gu Congran pressed a few numbers impatiently. unlocked.

Turn on the light, the room is as tidy and clean as usual, all the furniture and decorations have not been moved in place - two water glasses of the same style are close together on the coffee table, and the gifts from the fans in the study are well placed on the wall Staying on the cabinet, the calligraphy on the central desk is probably completed, and there is a song poem with dried ink on it: it rains on the leaves of the phoenix tree in the third watch, and the sound of the leaves is parting.

Pushing open the French window of the balcony, the potted plants outside had not been watered for several days, and the petals of the hydrangea were all wilted. The two pots of phoenixes next to them were as stubborn as their name, and they were alive and well.

Going to the master bedroom next door, the bed is neat without a crease, the clock on the bedside table is still running, and the closet at the end of the bed is opened, and the crowded clothes are still there, including a few pieces that he left on purpose before. shirt.

Obviously everything related to a person is placed safely, but Gu Congran has the illusion that the person has left.This feeling is terrifyingly strong, Gu Congran has experienced it once, and he still has lingering fears.

The scene five years ago seemed to be happening again, Gu Congran turned around and was about to rush out of the house, and then remembered that this is not the Moon Sea, the outside is not the sea where Jiang Hua was buried, and Xu Chenhe is not Jiang Hua.

With a severe headache, Gu Congran sat down on the edge of the bed, took out his mobile phone and called Zhu Huiting: "Where are the others?"

"You just asked, where did you go to have a good time earlier?" Zhu Huiting's voice was tired, too lazy to detour with this buddy, "He left, it was planned to hide from everyone, and no one said anything. "

"Where did you go?!" Gu Congran asked anxiously.

Zhu Huiting laughed at the popularity of this afterthought: "Where you can't find it, just go there."

Gu Congran's heart was tightened, and he rushed to the bedside table to search for the belongings that Xu Chenhe might leave behind, documents, jewelry, anything, as long as it can prove that the other party will come back...

He discovered a familiar Persian blue velvet box hidden in the bottom drawer. He anxiously took the box out and opened it, but what he saw made him feel cold, and boundless regret ruthlessly shackled him from head to toe. .

Inside the box lay a scratched moonstone and a platinum ring with engraved English script.

And... the broken whale.

He thought how clever he was in coaxing people, but it was Xu Chenhe who swallowed the pain back again and again, quietly, without letting him notice.

When Zhu Huiting rushed to Fujinyuan, Gu Congran opened the door for him, and silently leaned over to the dining table to piece together the shattered whale.

"I fucking guessed you were here." After all, Gu Congran couldn't feel relieved, Zhu Huiting asked Fang Rui to go back to the hotel first, and booked a ticket overnight to rush back to Chengcheng City.It was midnight at this time, Zhu Huiting was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open, he threw a box of antipyretics on the table and said, "Take the medicine and then play with that thing, I'll go to sleep first."

The medicine box hit the newly assembled whale tail impartially, and fell apart without being glued properly.Gu Congran ran out of patience, called Zhu Huiting to stop, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where did he go?"

Zhu returned to the court for more than ten hours without closing his eyes, and his temper was not much better when facing his friends: "If I could find him, I would have brought him back long ago. Do you still feel uncomfortable watching you?"

Seeing Gu Congran's bewildered eyes, he was so angry that he took out the credit card in his trouser pocket and threw it into his arms: "How many times have I told you, don't pretend to be affectionate if you don't really love him?" He looks like a kid, do you think he’s just kidding? People don’t say a word and take responsibility for fear of embarrassing you. Less than one-tenth of the money they earned in the circle for more than two years was taken away, and the rest was used to pay liquidated damages and You don’t need to pay for him to solve all the losses, so how can you have the face to call him selfish? Who the hell is selfish now, Gu Congran?”

The thin card fell into the folds of the dark gray jacket and got stuck, reminding Gu Congran of that winter, the photo that slipped from the folder to his eyes.

Chaos' mind could only receive one message over and over again, and he asked hesitantly, "Xu Chenhe...is he really gone?"

"Fuck, wake up," Zhu Huiting turned around and grabbed Gu Congran's arm to lift him up into the bedroom, "What kind of bullshit did you say to him yesterday, don't talk about him, I'm on the phone It sounds like I want to have a fight with you, but with your skillful tone, if you say it's the first time you've told him like this, I absolutely don't believe it. Maybe Shen He can bear you for so long, and it's a pity he's gone. "

Let go of Gu Congran, Zhu Huiting pulled the quilt up for him, went outside to get medicine for him, and handed him a cup of cold water when he came back: "If you are in your 30s, take it easy, Jiang Hua has been away for so many years, you How can there be such a good thing if you are reluctant to let go of him and want to occupy another one?"

"I really like him." Gu Congran scratched at the rim of his cup. His love for Xu Chenhe did not stop at that face. If he put aside that face, there are still many things about Xu Chenhe that make his heart move as he gets along day by day. Details—the occasional mischievous, non-provocative and considerate, the scent of cherry blossoms on his shoulder when watching a movie with him in the afternoon, the busy figure in the kitchen, the gentleness of the side face when practicing calligraphy...

But when Xu Chenhe resolutely left him, he suddenly fell into the clouds: did he really know Xu Chenhe?

Zhu Huiting squeezed a pill for him: "If you think about it seriously, would that be considered liking? If you think about it again, if he treats you like you treat him, would you be happy?"

Nature is not happy.

Gu Congran was lying on the bed with the quilt on his side, and the curtains were not drawn in the bedroom. He looked out at the night sky through the window pane, vaguely remembering that he said he would take Xu Chenhe to see the starry sky.

Not only looking at the starry sky, but also watching the sunset and diving. He failed to fulfill any of the promises he made to Xu Chenhe, but said hurtful things countless times.

The winter night was long, he watched the sky turn white inch by inch, and thought a lot, but he didn't know where to go to find Xu Chenhe.How could it be so easy for people to find someone who wanted to hide?

The sun gradually dyed the whole world and squeezed into every train carriage. Some people just opened their sleepy eyes, and some were still asleep.

Xu Chenhe was lying on the lower bunk, and the first thing he did after waking up was to pull up the mask stuck on his chin to cover half of his face.There were more than half of the people in the carriage, Xu Chenhe listened to the unfamiliar station announcement, thinking about where to get off.

Unplugging the phone that had been charged for half the night, after a short sleep, he received a lot of messages on his phone, more than half of his former partners sent him a series of question marks, and Le Yuqin sent him a long text to express his gratitude His disappointment.

He sent a sorry message in Moments, went back to the message interface and clicked on Yun Zhaoyu's 59-second voice: "Ms. Jiang is just a title, I met you, and I like you too..."

Xu Chenhe only listened to the beginning and didn't listen any more. He quit, thinking that it would be useless to keep Weibo. After logging in, he updated the last post, and then quickly uninstalled the software.

The city that the terminal station of this train arrives at is called Jinjin City.

Xu Chenhe picked up his suitcase and got out of the car after all the people in the car had left. He walked through the dense crowd of people and looked up at the city he had come to for the first time.

Walking outside, there are taxis waiting to pick up passengers along the way, and some big brothers leaning against the door of the car to smoke when they have nothing to do, let Xu Chenhe see a man with tattooed arms.

Walking forward, Xu Chenhe pointed to the other party's arm, and asked with a smile: "Master, where did you make your arm, can you recommend it?"

The driver was also a smart guy. He wiped out his cigarette and waved his hand towards the car: "Young man has good eyesight, get in the car, and I'll take you there!"
