aftershock

Chapter 28

Lin Wang hadn't been in the ward for the past two days, and it wasn't until Jiang Yuan asked about it on the day he was discharged from the hospital that the nurse told him that he had gone abroad on business.

"How is it? Are you okay?" Lin Ze adjusted his glasses beside him, Jiang Yuan was afraid that he would walk out of the hospital with his help, so he nodded quickly, "It's fine, it's fine."

When he arrived at the door, he saw Lin Ze looking for a big business car, and insisted on persuading Jiang Yuan to lie down in it. Jiang Yuan had no choice but to do so. In fact, his wound no longer hurts, or he is used to it. Lin Ze is Gu Lv. His confidant secretary is really not the person who should be sent to help him move things to welcome him out of the hospital. Even such details are unexpectedly carefully taken care of, but he is a little flattered and cautious.

"Secretary Lin, your phone has been ringing." Lin Ze's phone vibrated, the voice was not loud but it was hard to ignore, Lin Ze seemed to be distracted, the driver reminded him, and he didn't react. Turning back to Jiang Yuan, he said, "Mr. Gu is busy today, so he said he will go home later."

"It's okay, it's okay if you don't need to go back."

Lin Ze shook his head and gave him a wry smile, "Maybe there will be surprises when I go home."

Jiang Yuan tried to smile.

When Lin Ze was about to reach the door of the house, Lin Ze told him that someone was waiting at the door. Jiang Yuan sat up and saw his aunt standing at the door from a distance. As soon as a car approached her, she walked several steps forward. The weather was too hot, and she was fat Auntie raised her hand to cover the sun above her head, smiled and ran a few steps, stood in front of the car door and shouted, "Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan is back." Jiang Yuan then smiled.For the first time in a long time, he felt that he was expected.

"Aunt"

After the electric door was slowly opened, the hot air came over the surface. The aunt was a little excited and didn't know where to pull him. She looked him up and down and said repeatedly, "It's great, it's great to be back."

She smiled with a kind of gentleness unique to this age, which is something that people will miss. Jiang Yuan stepped down from the car, looking very relaxed, and the aunt kept talking about all kinds of worries and concerns, etc. When I got to the yard, I realized that Old Xu had been standing at the door and looking at it, and looked away when he met him, "Uncle Xu."

Old Xu responded unnaturally, and said dryly, "Just come back."

"I won't fall into the water anymore. Mr. Gu has filled the swimming pool." The aunt led him in, pointing him to the newly paved green grass outside the sliding door.The grass is emerald green, and the soft leaves are like golf lawns.There is a whole row of sunflowers planted by the wall, but the planting time is not long, and a few of them are still hanging their heads in the sun.

Jiang Yuan noticed that there were two large eucalyptus standing beside the glass door. The round leaves had just been watered, and they were very beautiful.

He stopped not far away, looked at these new little creatures, and bent his eyes.

"Do you like it, your eucalyptus?"

Gu Lu didn't know when he was standing behind him, he held up half of his shirt cuffs, gently hugged Jiang Yuan and pushed him to sit on the sofa.

"like."

Gu Lu hummed, and then said, "Actually, Lin Ze helped make it, as long as you like it."

I thought it was the same. It just so happened that after Lin Ze explained the driver’s affairs, he called Gu Lv in a low voice. Jiang Yuan saw Gu Lv get up from beside him, and the faint smell of toner immediately dissipated in the air with him. He and Lin Ze seemed to be in a relationship. Talking about something, I habitually lower my head slightly, frown slightly, relaxed and natural, as if I can do everything with ease.

"Xiaoyuan, Auntie made chicken soup. It's the running pheasant that Lao Xu bought on the mountain yesterday. It doesn't have oil. Auntie will serve you some soup later, okay?"

The aunt bent down slightly, like coaxing a picky eater. When she looked at her, she would always speak softly, and there was obvious distress in her smiling eyes. When Jiang Yuan was hospitalized, he saw her rushing over in the summer more than once. With a sweaty back, she always brought simple but extremely meticulous food, and then patiently sat with him for a while, talking about the few goldfish that Xu Xin had raised, and the lavender rose flowers blooming in the yard.

"it is good."

Seeing the blue and yellow veins on the back of Jiang Yuan's hand, she smiled slowly, stretched out her hand to touch it gently, Jiang Yuan took advantage of the situation to pull her, and she sat beside her awkwardly, with helpless love in her eyes, "It hurts, doesn't it?"

The chubby hand is soft, it is too dry and warm. Jiang Yuan deeply engraved her every move in his eyes. He couldn't restrain the apex of his heart and his nose was sore. He didn't want to be too ashamed. She turned her head slightly, and leaned on her aunt's shoulder for a while, as if acting like a baby.

It's not even called "for a while", and he moved away in just a short time.Gu Lv thought he was wrong. He knew that Jiang Yuan liked this aunt, but he didn't know that he would get close to her like this.

The aunt laughed out of surprise, she was a servant, and it would be beyond her power to appease this child whom he loved so much, and she didn't dare too much.

"Xiao Yuan, are you hungry? Shall I serve you some soup?"

"Let's have lunch." Gu Lv came around from behind the sofa, frowned and squatted down again, "Where are the socks?"

Jiang Yuan thought it was too hot, so he wiped off his socks as soon as he sat down. He hid the socks in his pocket. At this time, Gu Lv grabbed his feet and he felt his face was hot.

"Xiao Yuan is hidden in your pocket, right? I can't find it every time I wash it." Auntie walked to the kitchen while exposing him. Gu Lu pinched the soles of his feet and smiled, "Is that so?"

Jiang Yuan was afraid of itchiness, even his feet and waist. He twisted Gu Lv a little and let go, fearing that his wound would hurt.He found Jiang Yuan's socks and put them on one by one.

Jiang Yuan ducked for a while, "Dirty."

"Well, it still stinks"

"How is it possible..." Gu Lu squatted halfway, Jiang Yuan shrank his feet on his lap, Gu Lu raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you heard?" Before Jiang Yuan could speak, he raised Jiang Yuan's embarrassed face slightly , Kissed the attractive lips like strawberries.

Before Jiang Yuan could react, he had already been hugged, Gu Lv smiled lowly, Jiang Yuan saw Lin Ze approaching with the phone in his hands, and his face turned red half in haste, "I can walk, let me down"

Gu Lv ignored him, and with his smile still on, he said to Lin Ze, "Let's stay for dinner, and we'll go back to the company together in the afternoon." Lin Ze nodded, and continued to focus on the phone, feeling very happy for Jiang Yuan who was so red in his arms. Decent didn't cast a second glance.

"Stop moving, I'll take you to wash your hair." As he spoke, his chest trembled, and Jiang Yuan could feel the sense of belonging growing on his body. When he raised his head, it happened to be Gu Lu's perfect Adam's apple. Because of the force, his neckline was half loose, and his shave smelled good. Xu Shui and the faint scent of soap on his clothes covered his head, Jiang Yuan quietly put his hands around his neck, Gu Lv bowed his head and smiled at him with satisfaction.

Jiang Yuan thought that what Gu Lv said about washing his hair was at most holding up the shower to help him wet his hair, but obviously Gu Lv didn't want that.

The washbasin is very big, Gu Lv put the person on it directly, Jiang Yuan didn't look very comfortable, it was the kind of uneasiness with the intimate behavior of unfamiliar people, Gu Lv knew that he had tried his best to restrain such exposed defenses, Jiang Yuan was too afraid that he would do something wrong and make himself unhappy.What Gu Zhengzhong said is right, to accept a person is to accept everything, and when you decide to accept everything about him, and seeing his cautiousness, you will feel pain from the apex of your heart.

"Don't use too much force, it will hurt the wound." He didn't help anyone wash their hair, Jiang Yuan was obediently sleeping on the sink, Gu Lu supported his head and always felt that his hands were very light, but when he looked closely, he found that Jiang Yuan was stretching his whole body. In order to reduce the weight he placed in his hands, because of excessive force, the whole body trembled slightly, and some shampoo foam was also got on his eyes, which were red, but there was no pit, and he didn't raise his hand to wipe.

Gu Lv was a little disappointed, he quickly took care of Jiang Yuan's eyes without saying a word, washed the water off his head, wrapped his hair with a towel, and let him sit up quickly.During this period, Jiang Yuan was like a very sensible child who was at the mercy of others, his eyes were watching his every move for a moment. Gu Lv turned off the hair dryer, gradually stopped his movements, wrapped his arms around his waist, and slowly put his head on his back. There was a low, inaudible sigh on his chest and abdomen.

That Jiang Yuan seems to be gone.

Laughing happily in the wood rose branch, Jiang Yuan, who was full of vitality and aura, was gone, only Jiang Yuan who forgot to wait for him after school and followed cautiously behind him and dared not speak.

Playing basketball under the sun, Jiang Yuan, who was covered in light, is gone. Now Jiang Yuan is covered in scars, like an animal that has been abandoned for too long. Even if you want to raise your hand to pet him, his first thought is that you will hit him .

He thought that even if Jiang Yuan fell asleep beside him, he would always keep vigilant, and would wake up whenever the quilt moved. Gu Lu knew that he didn't want to be seen by him with those wounds, so he was nervous when he touched his clothes, but he didn't know it was because he was afraid. I will ask myself, or I am afraid that I don't like it.

He used his teeth to bite his phalanx when he was in pain in the middle of the night. During the day, he still smiled very docilely and could even make a few jokes. He would unconsciously read other people's names when he fell asleep. glued to yourself.

He is silent, happy, generous and cowardly, hiding those trivial emotions, only revealing the side that he thinks others want to see. When there is no one, he doesn't know how quiet and stagnant he looks.

It shouldn't be like this, the person who was abandoned was obviously himself.

Was it because he was hurt, or refused to forgive, because he threw away his things, or because he ignored him deliberately and too coldly, that made him like this.

Will he come back, that person, or never come back.

Is he the one who got rid of the person he likes?

Gu Lu's trousers were wet, and his rolled-up sleeves were also stained with water. It was because he washed his hair that he got wet. Jiang Yuan squinted his eyes. The sunlight outside was particularly good. I don't know what this kind of slightly twisted transparent glass is called The name, the light cast softly on the back of the person in front of him, there is a holy atmosphere, Gu Lv suddenly leaned against him, Jiang Yuan's legs beside him did not dare to shake, I don't know what happened to Gu Lv , the heart was hung in the chest and beat a few times, he realized that Gu Lv probably had more pity for him, so he calmly dropped his hand on Gu Lv's shoulder.Gu Lu hugged him for a while, then put him on the ground, and continued to blow his hair as if nothing had happened. Jiang Yuan felt that he must have thought a lot, maybe it was bad, no, it shouldn't be good.

Lin Ze was very busy at noon. He ran out to answer the phone several times just for dinner. They set off to return to the company after lunch. Although they knew that this was the time Gu Lv took out, but just a moment of tenderness made life difficult. This kind of thinking is still very dangerous, but when Jiang Yuan opened his eyes after sleeping on the sofa all afternoon, he thought again, such a good sun, such a good weather, if there are no people and things that are particularly missed, Sleeping to this point and watching the wind and the sun is always a very sad thing, so even if it is a little dangerous, it is still better than being sad.

This summer seems to go without any regrets, it seems that I just wake up a few more times, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus begins to float in the air, but the sides of the mountain road at the door are full of phoenix trees. There are few vehicles in the city, and an occasional one passing by can always bring out the haze of the whole place.Sometimes Jiang Yuan would wait for Gu Lv at the door, but most of the time he would be able to wait, and for a few, Lin Ze would convey the message that Gu Lv would not come back because he had an engagement.

Jiang Yuan is recovering well, but he is indeed not that young. He feels the kind of revenge for wasting his youth. After an operation, he always feels that he cannot recover mentally. He is lazy, sleepy, and lethargic. Just sleep through the day.He had no choice but to drink hot tea with Uncle Xu, and then take a walk after dinner, trying to keep himself awake longer.

During this period of time, Gu Lu has rarely spoken to stop him, almost only being unable to go out to blow the wind at night, but the air in the mountains has always been very good, so Jiang Yuan usually walks along the mountain roads before it is dark, which is convenient digestion.Speaking of which, the relationship between him and Gu Lv's recent harmony is a bit weird. After he was no longer treated with unilateral indifference, Gu Lv was too nice. After thinking about it, Jiang Yuan couldn't find any reason why he would treat him well. His scars were almost healed, and he felt that Gu Lu's patience was about to dwindle day by day.

Recently, Uncle Xu set up a tall lotus vat in a huge green yard. It has a very simple color, and there are many small golden and red carps in it. Jiang Yuan watched them swimming around in this world in a daze. , he stretched out his hand involuntarily, until he touched the cool water, he realized that he wanted to catch a fish.

"Xiao Yuan, Mr. Gu is back, it's time to eat." Aunt suddenly opened the door to call him, and Jiang Yuan shook the water on his hand.

He was a little absent-minded, and Gu Lv called him several times at the dinner table before he heard it.

"What's the matter?" Gu Lu got up and touched his forehead with the back of his hand, Jiang Yuan hid back and laughed, "It's okay, I was thinking about other things, I'm sorry"

Gu Lv withdrew his hand and put a piece of fish in front of him into his bowl, "What are you thinking?"

"I think it's time to work." Jiang Yuan pursed his lips, "But most of the things I learned are useless, and it seems that I can't help you."

Seeing his serious face, Gu Lv thought for a while and said, "Then come to work in the company and come with me." His original intention was to take care of Jiang Yuan, but the latter shook his head immediately unexpectedly, "It's even more inappropriate there. Me, I don't know anything."

"I can teach you."

Jiang Yuan's lip color and fingertips and toes were always very light after the operation, like a rose that had bloomed for a long time, and the corner of the rose curled up, "You have Lin Ze, Lin Ze is great."

If Gu Lu was a very talkative person, he would probably say "You are also great", but obviously he is not, and it is impossible to think so, so he just put another piece of pure white fish with shaved bones into it. In Jiang Yuan's bowl, he said softly, "Then you must pay attention to safety, and you don't have to do anything if you don't want to do it."

Jiang Yuan couldn't help but put the classic line in his mind: I don't go to work, you support me, but he thought it was impossible for Gu Lv to cooperate, so he just widened the arc of his smile. I understand what he is laughing at.

"What did you ask me before?" Jiang Yuan really didn't hear clearly, his thoughts were all on the fish.

Gu Lv put down his chopsticks and frowned slightly, "It's about Peng's business. In a few days, Peng's 30th anniversary will come, and Jiang He will be invited."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Ah, so." He remembered the man named Peng Yang, who was very strong and good-looking.He didn't understand why Gu Lv told him this, and looked at him with some doubts in his eyes.

"In the capital, the plane takes two and a half hours. Will you go with me?" Jiang Yuan opened his eyes slightly, opened his mouth, and asked, "Come with you?"

Gu Lv tested the temperature of the pear soup with his hands. After autumn, the aunt specially used some stewed pear juice from northern Sichuan every day. Gu Lu watched him drink it while eating at home.

"Ask the doctor. If you take a short flight, it should be fine."

"But I..." What is my identity...

"Drink it up." Gu Lv stared at him, "It's going to be a long time, I can't put you here."

Jiang Yuan took a mouthful of pear soup before he could swallow it in time, the sweet soup stuck in his throat, he coughed a few times, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why?"

"I didn't sleep well."
