Night walk

Outside the gate of the courtyard, Qiao Dongyang, Aunt Dong and Xiao Zhe were all sitting in the car. Seeing Mo Zhao come out, they also got out of the car one after another.Mo Zhao looked at Qiao Dongyang and said, "Come here."

"Ah?" Qiao Dongyang stepped forward and followed Mo Zhao into his car.

Mo Zhao's driver got out of the car and closed the door for them.

Mo Zhao handed him the card just now. Of course Qiao Dongyang knew what it was. He saved this card in the morning, and there were a total of 240 million in it.He looked up at Mo Zhao in confusion, and Mo Zhao said: "You keep it, and you will take it out later if you are really short of money. If there is no emergency, just hide it and don't let your brother know."

"Why..." Qiao Dongyang didn't understand.

"Your brother has a bad temper, and you know it. Don't make him angry if you have nothing to do. After you go back to your hometown, you should persuade him too."

"Aren't you going to let us go back?"

"He wants to go back."

"..." Qiao Dongyang didn't understand anymore.Mo Zhao didn't care about the glass on the wall and pierced his palm and wanted to climb over the wall. He wanted to see Qiao Yixiao so much, so he let it go again.Just like when they broke up when they said they broke up, why are they so strange.

"As long as he likes it." Mo Zhao looked out, "You go and take good care of him."

"I know. Of course I will take good care of my brother. But I can't take this card. This is the money our family owes you. "

Mo Zhao laughed, and said softly: "Take it away, it's for your brother. Go, get out of the car."

"I……"

"Get out of the car, don't tell anyone."

Qiao Dongyang got out of the car in a daze, watched the driver greet him with a smile, and then got on the car.When the car was about to drive away, he suddenly stepped forward, his steps were very slow, but his expression was anxious, and the car stopped again.

Mo Zhao rolled down the car window and asked him, "Is there anything else?"

Qiao Dongyang watched him for a long time, and took out something from his pocket as if determined, and the strong man handed it over: "You take it! I always wear it close to my body, and it will be miserable if my brother sees it. Don't say yes I gave it! My brother thought that this thing was destroyed by me."

"This is?"

"Go and see for yourself! Goodbye!" Qiao Dongyang turned and walked towards the yard.

Mo Zhao looked at the small USB flash drive in his palm for a while.

Until the driver asked: "Mayor Mo, shall we go back to City Z? You will meet tomorrow morning."

"Go back." Mo Zhao said, but when the car drove out, he said again, "Go to a place first."

Mo Zhao didn't expect that he would come here again.

This place was originally one of his properties, and it was originally just an ordinary house, with no one living in it, and no sense of home.Until Qiao Yixiao moved in.

After Qiao Yixiao left, Aunt Dong, Xiao Zhe and the other three cleaned the place and left.They couldn't contact him, so Xiao Zhe contacted Gao Ming.Gao Ming asked him how to deal with it. After he heard the news that Qiao Yixiao had left, he had long been indifferent to think about other things.

Gao Ming locked up the house on his own initiative, and the furnishings inside were not touched at all. The cars in the garage were parked there, and the flowers and plants in the garden were still there, and people came to trim them regularly.

Therefore, when Mo Zhao opened the door and entered, the courtyard he saw was still the same as before.

Even if it was him, he was in a daze for a few seconds.Then he strode into the room, turned on the light, and the furnishings in the room were exactly the same as that day.Qiao Yixiao always ran around barefoot, so he laid out a white carpet all over the room.Qiao Yixiao sat on the small wooden bench where he changed shoes.Qiao Yixiao lay on the sofa reading, watching TV, and playing with cats.The cat climbing frame Qiao Yixiao specially bought for Kui Kui, etc., are all still there, unchanged.

There was even a cup for Qiao Yixiao to drink on the coffee table, and there was a cat on the cup that looked very similar to Kwai Kui.

The cup was also custom-made by Qiao Yixiao who drew the cat himself and found someone online.Qiao Yixiao made two and gave him one back.

He passed these familiar places one by one and walked upstairs.

In Qiao Yixiao's bedroom, the quilts were neatly folded, but the few sunflowers that were changed every day were missing from the bedside table.Mo Zhao noticed that even after tidying up, there was only one pillow left on Qiao Yixiao's bed.

He smiled wryly, he knew that Qiao Yixiao must have thrown away the other pillow long ago.

He then walked into Qiao Yixiao's study.When Qiao Yixiao left, she didn't bring anything, including the computer.The laptop that Qiao Yixiao used in the past was on the desk. He walked to the desk and opened the drawers on both sides of the desk.Qiao Yixiao likes to stuff all kinds of gadgets he likes inside, and those things are still inside at the moment.Because there is no wind and no sun, those gadgets are still the same color as before.

He took out a felt cat from it, which Qiao Yixiao made himself, following the pattern of Kui Kui.

He looked through the things in the drawer lightly one by one, and found a coloring book, which he also remembered.He thought it was fun when the two of them went to the bookstore together, so he picked it up.He opened it and saw that Qiao Yixiao had painted at least half of it, and the colors were very beautiful.

He couldn't stand it anymore, lowered his eyes and put back the things he took out one by one. Just when he was about to close the drawer, he stopped.He took out all the things in the drawer again, reached into the deepest part, and found a small hard paper item, and he pulled it out.

It turned out to be a calendar.

He frowned slightly, flipping through the calendar.

Intuitively, he turned to certain pages, and sure enough, he saw Qiao Yixiao's handwriting.

He saw the love hearts and smiling faces Qiao Yixiao drew.I also saw "Thank you Mo Zhao" written by Qiao Yixiao, and "Happy Birthday Husband" written by Qiao Yixiao.

The feeling of suffocation that he hadn't experienced the day of drowning instantly covered his whole body.

He turned and leaned against the desk, looked out the window, and couldn't take a good breath for a long time.

The three circled days, one is Qiao Yixiao's birthday, one is his own birthday, and one more time, what day is that?

He remembered that it was the day when Qiao Yixiao participated in the football match.

The day when he kissed Qiao Yixiao's forehead for the first time.

Mo Zhao couldn't help being a little confused, betraying Qiao Yixiao's sincerity and hurting him instead.

This matter, to the end, right?

If he hadn't done that at the beginning, wouldn't Qiao Yixiao have to suffer these hardships? With him protecting her well and someone picking her up, wouldn't Qiao Yixiao be in a car accident?Can the current Qiao Yixiao graduate happily and happily do what he likes to do?

But if he had been stubborn, what would his father have done?

For the affairs of the world, he can almost do it with ease.

Only this matter, until today, he didn't know how to do it right.

What should be done to minimize Qiao Yixiao's damage.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear again.He took the computer and calendar in his hands, ready to leave.

Before going downstairs, he turned and glanced at his bedroom.

Unknowingly, he walked there again, opened the door of that bedroom, and saw a pillow that didn't fit on the bed.

He smiled wryly again, Qiao Yixiao must have thrown the pillow away, Aunt Dong picked it up again, and just put it on his bed.

He stepped forward, patted the pillow, and then picked it up to take a look.

Unexpectedly, with just one glance, he saw that there was something under the pillow.

It was a rectangular box. He put down the computer, calendar and pillow, reached for the box, and slowly opened it.

Among them is a wallet that is actually a bit rough, made of cowhide.He opened the wallet and looked carefully.The wiring is crooked, it looks like it was hand-sewn, and the edges and corners are a bit rough.The bag type is even simpler, just fold in half, and there are two card slots inside.

A small card was inserted in one of the card slots, and he pulled out that card.

There was still something inside, and he opened the small card again, which turned out to be a few sunflower seeds.

He wrapped the seeds again, and stuffed the small card back into the slot.

This is the wallet Qiao Yixiao made himself, right?

That was the wallet that Qiao Yixiao made himself.

The spring when Mo Zhao left, he lived in a muddle, thinking about Mo Zhao every day, but he also knew that Mo Zhao would not come back.The idea of ​​making a wallet for Mo Zhao has been around for a long time. I thought I would make it as a birthday present for Mo Zhao that year.Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the new year, they broke up.

The materials had been bought long ago, but he still made it alone, and he was not satisfied with it.

Especially after he went to Z city, knowing that he was going to leave, he didn't wrap the corner of the wallet again, he originally wanted to burn it on fire.But after all, he sewed it stitch by stitch. Even though it was ugly, he did it with his own hands, and he couldn't bear it.

He knew that Aunt Dong had put his pillow in Mo Zhao's bedroom.

Before leaving, he walked to Mo Zhao's bedroom in a mysterious manner, and stuffed the box under the pillow.

He didn't know if Mo Zhao would come here in the future, he didn't know who would live in this house in the future, and he didn't know if anyone would guess who built it.

But these are no longer important.

Those are his thoughts, so for the last time, he will be willful again and send it out.

Although, perhaps, that person will never know, nor receive.

Mo Zhao took Qiao Yixiao's computer, calendar, and that wallet back to City Z.

Sitting in the car, he unconsciously looked at the USB flash drive in his hand, and he could faintly guess what it was.

But suddenly he didn't dare to look at it.

Sure enough, Mo Zhao never appeared again.

Just like two years ago.

Qiao Yixiao also seemed to wilt suddenly, no longer arguing to go home, and recuperating in peace of mind, the car that was originally booked was also cancelled.The studio that was originally going to be sublet, Xiao Zhe asked him: "Someone came to see the studio today, and they are very satisfied. They want to lower the rent by another two thousand, saying that they can deliver it immediately."

Qiao Yixiao opened his eyes, and said listlessly: "Don't hold back, do you want love?"

Xiao Zhe glanced at him, and replied: "Okay, there is no rush, let's watch."

"En." Qiao Yixiao finished answering and closed her eyes again.

Until Aunt Dong came with a bowl of soup and said softly, "Yixiao, come and have some soup."

Only then did he slowly open his eyes, and whispered: "I don't want to drink, I'm tired of drinking."

"The scum is all gone, you see."

These conversations were very similar to before, which made Qiao Yixiao more boring every day, his body was still hurting, and he became more and more irritable.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"It is estimated that Qiao Dongyang is back."

Xiao Zhe got up: "I'll go and open the door."

It was not Qiao Dongyang who came in, but Mo Zhao.

Qiao Yixiao's bed was facing the door, and he saw him immediately, he really didn't expect Mo Zhao to come over, he was stunned for a while, and then he looked away uncomfortably.

Aunt Dong was quite happy. She put down the bowl, stood up and said, "Mr. Mo, you are here."

"Well, I've been busy for a while, so I just took time out today." Mo Zhao spoke to her very kindly, "Are you eating?"

"I'm trying to persuade him to drink the bone soup I made for Yi Xiao." Aunt Dong said with a smile.

Qiao Yixiao frowned, and she heard Mo Zhao ask, "Why don't you want to drink?"

"Drinking it every day makes me tired."

Mo Zhao said casually, "Drinking is good for your health, but not drinking will make you feel better."

"Yes!" Aunt Dong echoed.

Qiao Yixiao secretly rolled her eyes in displeasure, but still didn't want to look at him.

Aunt Dong said again: "Mr. Mo, please sit down. Although this place is a bit small, we bought several chairs." Mo Zhao is not Aunt Dong's employer now, and Aunt Dong spoke a lot more easily.

Mo Zhao actually sat down, sitting on the edge of the bed, watching Aunt Dong continue to persuade Qiao Yixiao to drink soup.

Qiao Yixiao had no choice but to take the bowl and drink it himself. After drinking half of it, he impatiently raised his head to look at Mo Zhao who had been looking at him: "Can you stop looking at me?"

"why?"

"Look at me, I can't drink it!"

Aunt Dong bowed her head silently, Xiao Zhe said: "Auntie, let's go out for a walk, didn't you say you want to buy vegetables?"

"Ah, yes!" Aunt Dong stood up, "Yi Xiao, Auntie is out shopping."

After that, the two hurried out.

"..." Qiao Yixiao was speechless.

So there were only the two of them left in the room again, Qiao Yixiao felt a little embarrassed, and finally finished the remaining half bowl of soup.Mo Zhao reached out to pick up the bowl, Qiao Yixiao put the bowl on the bedside table on the other side, and continued to remain silent.

Qiao Yixiao couldn't tell, whether he was a little happy.

He originally wanted to wait for Mo Zhao to speak on his own initiative, but after a long silence, Mo Zhao didn't speak.

He became a little impatient again, and asked directly: "Didn't I tell you everything, what are you doing here again? Come and see how ugly I am now?!"

Only then did Mo Zhao speak: "I've been a little busy these days, I only have time to see you today, I'm sorry."

"Who asked you to come and see me??" You said I'm sorry!These words made it seem like Qiao Yixiao was waiting for Mo Zhao every day!

Qiao Yixiao didn't know why, he was so angry when talking to Mo Zhao.He has cultivated so well that he seldom gets angry with others.

"Do not be angry."

Qiao Yixiao said angrily, "I'm not angry!"

"I came here today because I really want to ask you something."

Seeing that he was speaking seriously, Qiao Yixiao immediately became a little nervous, obviously there was nothing to be nervous about.He opened his eyes unconsciously and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My mother wants to see you."

"..." Qiao Yixiao looked at Mo Zhao stupidly.

"Is it possible?" Mo Zhao asked again.

Only then did Qiao Yixiao come back to his senses slowly, and asked him in a daze, "Your mother wants to see me? Why?"

"She knew you were hurt, so she wanted to come and see you."

Qiao Yixiao was even more confused.

Why is Mo Zhao's mother coming to see him when he is injured?They don't know each other!
