second love

The following days passed peacefully. Yue Chen took Cheng Zhuojun to look at several real estate projects, and finally chose a new house in the old city.

Cheng Zhuojun's treatment is still going on, and he thinks of many things from the past every day.In his eyes, the world is no longer broken into pieces, and he is no longer just watching, but re-participating.

At work, Cheng Zhuojun has also made considerable progress.People in the company gradually changed their understanding of this special employee and began to recognize his ability.

This year passed quickly, and in January of the new year, Cheng Zhuojun got an opportunity to travel for work.

"Business trip?" Hearing Cheng Zhuojun's words, Yue Chen stopped brushing his teeth. "Where are you going?"

"City B, go for about a week?"

"when to go?"

"The day after tomorrow, I seem to be in a hurry."

"I'll be back in a week..." Yue Chen rinsed his mouth, and then spit out the water in his mouth.

"What's the matter?" Cheng Zhuojun was packing his luggage, and looked outside the door strangely when he didn't hear Yue Chen's reply.

"It's okay. It's cold in city B, right? Remember to bring thick clothes."

On the day Cheng Zhuojun left, Yue Chen wanted to see him off, but Cheng Zhuojun was absolutely unwilling.

"If my colleagues see it, they will gossip."

Cheng Zhuojun said so, Yue Chen had no choice but to give up.

In fact, Yue Chen didn't care about other people's gossip, when he was with Cheng Zhuojun, he had no chance to show his affection in front of others.

Of course, let alone showing affection in college, Cheng Zhuojun seemed eager to draw a line with him.

Sometimes when Yue Chen thinks about the university, he always sighs that he was too young back then.If he had immediately asked Cheng Zhuojun when he discovered that there was a strange crack in that relationship, would the two of them not have wasted so many years before finally getting together?

It's hard to say, Yue Chen doesn't like chasing straight men, it's too hard after all.Maybe the result of asking immediately at the beginning will not change much from the real result.

Yue Chen turned on the phone screen and saw the date displayed on it.

"I won't be back until seven days later..." he said to himself.

It's his birthday in seven days. Originally, the two of them asked for leave to go out for a day of fun. It seems that this little plan of mine can only be shelved.

"But, does he know it's my birthday?"

Of course Cheng Zhuojun knew, and he was thinking that when Yue Chen knew that he was going on a business trip, he would cry and say that it was his birthday in a week, and asked him to stay with him (of course, this was just an imagination).Who knew that Yue Chen didn't say a word, and even told him to pay attention to something when he arrived in City B.

Cheng Zhuojun felt that he "married" a good wife.In this case, Cheng Zhuojun can only surprise Yue Chen.He expected to fly away that afternoon, and he should be able to accompany Yue Chen for a few hours.

For the next week, the two were busy on their own.

Cheng Zhuojun was not at home, so Yue Chen stayed at the company until late at night before coming back.Every morning and evening, he would send "good morning" and "good night" to Cheng Zhuojun, but it took a long time for Cheng Zhuojun to reply to his messages.

"It seems really busy..."

Yue Chen is not much more idle than Cheng Zhuojun.Since the end of the last project, the leader has paid more and more attention to him. Although he has no intention of promoting him for the time being, the work piled on his desk is becoming less and better, and each task requires him to spend a lot of time. energy to complete.

Once during the lunch break, Yue Chen was making tea in the tea room when he suddenly felt his phone vibrate.He took it out and saw that it was Cheng Zhuojun who sent him the emoji of "Shiba Inu vomiting blood".

He smiled and returned a "hug" expression.

It was the same in the next few days, as long as Cheng Zhuojun finished his work, he would send an emoji of "vomiting blood", and the corresponding Yue Chen would silently reply with "hug".

On the night before his birthday, Yue Chen didn't sleep after sending "good night" to Cheng Zhuojun, and would turn on his phone from time to time to check for any new messages.

Cheng Zhuojun didn't reply, and he didn't know whether he was done with work or fell asleep from exhaustion.

When "00:00" was displayed on the phone, Cheng Zhuojun still didn't reply. Yue Chen just waited until one o'clock in the morning, and finally couldn't resist sleepiness and turned off the phone to sleep.

Cheng Zhuojun has been rushing to deal with some things since he arrived in City B, and sometimes he is so busy that he doesn't even feel that he is busy with anything.

Accompanying him to City B was a colleague named Lin Kuan.This colleague has more work experience than Cheng Zhuojun, without his guidance, Cheng Zhuojun is afraid that it will take more time to complete his work.

After finishing his work that night, Cheng Zhuojun fell into bed and fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already eleven o'clock at noon.Cheng Zhuojun rubbed his eyes, and when he checked his phone, he saw the "good night" Yue Chen sent him yesterday, and today's "good morning".

Just as Cheng Zhuojun was about to reply, the phone rang, and it was Lin Kuan calling.

As soon as Cheng Zhuojun connected, he heard Lin Kuan's panting voice, which sounded like he was already outside.

"Hello, Cheng Zhuojun? General Manager Yan asked me to stay here for five more days. You call the personnel department to find Li Luoluo and ask her to change my ticket. Let's do this first, my phone is almost out of battery!"

"Eh, hello?"

Cheng Zhuojun was hung up on the phone before he realized what was going on.After thinking about it, I decided to do as Lin Kuan said.

Li Luoluo was not there when he called the personnel department, so Cheng Zhuojun had no choice but to tell the person who answered the phone to tell Li Luoluo about changing the ticket.

After the phone call, Cheng Zhuojun sighed inwardly, thinking that fortunately he was not the one who was left behind.

After taking a shower, Cheng Zhuojun went to the restaurant to have lunch, and then went back to the room to pack his luggage.After checking out the room at the front desk, he took a car to the airport directly.

He looked at the time and the weather outside, thinking that he would be home by nine o'clock in the evening.It should scare Yue Chen, right?Yue Chen should have thought that he was going for seven days, but he didn't expect to come back on the seventh day, right?

After arriving at the airport, Cheng Zhuojun sent Yue Chen an emoji of "vomiting blood" as usual, and Yue Chen replied to him after a while.

When queuing up to get the boarding pass, Cheng Zhuojun was in a happy mood.It was Yue Chen who kept creating surprises for him all the time, Yue Chen probably never thought that he would also receive surprises on this day.

Cheng Zhuojun always held the gift for Yue Chen.He didn't dare to check it in the suitcase for fear of being crushed.

The gift was a box of dark chocolates. Cheng Zhuojun knew that Yue Chen liked bitter things, so he specially went to a handmade chocolate shop to make them after work.

Although you can also buy it in G City, but as the saying goes, goose feathers are given away from thousands of miles away. The gift is not important, but the friendship.Cheng Zhuojun nodded in satisfaction at his thoughts.

After queuing for about ten minutes, it was finally Cheng Zhuojun's turn.After handing his ID card to the staff, he sent the luggage to the transport plane, then stared at the staff working on the computer, excitedly waiting for the ticket to go home.

After checking the information for a while, the staff frowned suspiciously, and checked again in disbelief.After confirming, she lifted it up and said to Cheng Zhuojun, "Sir, I'm sorry. There is no boarding information for you."

Cheng Zhuojun was stunned, his head went blank for a few seconds before he realized what she said.

"Impossible, can you take another look?"

"Sir, which channel did you purchase the ticket through? Can you check the information to see if the ticket has been successfully issued?"

Cheng Zhuojun couldn't explain clearly either, so he stepped back and called the HR department.

This time it was still not Li Luoluo who answered the phone, Cheng Zhuojun asked Li Luoluo to answer the call by name, and after waiting for a while, he asked Li Luoluo what was going on.

Li Luoluo was also at a loss when he heard Cheng Zhuojun's question, and asked Cheng Zhuojun to wait for her before asking other colleagues.

I don't know how long I waited until Li Luoluo came back.

"Well, Cheng Zhuojun, I'm sorry." Li Luoluo said anxiously, "Just now when Xiaoying told me what you said, I confused people, thinking it was you who wanted to change the ticket. As a result, when I was just about to change, Senior Lin Kuan He called me and asked me if it was you who just called to change the ticket, and he told me to just cancel it. I thought it meant canceling yours, so I canceled it."

In this way, the check-in procedures for the planes that were supposed to be boarded have already stopped.Cheng Zhuojun had no choice but to buy the next plane ticket out of his own pocket.

"You can only buy one at 17 o'clock at the earliest, are you sure you want to buy a ticket, sir?"

"Yes. Well, you can reach City G after eight o'clock in the evening, right?"

"It's hard to say, sir." The staff looked at him helplessly, "The weather is not very good today, and the situation in City G is not clear. It is normal for the plane to be delayed."

After Cheng Zhuojun passed the security check, he sat in the waiting hall in a daze.

It was originally just a simple rebooking, but I didn't expect so many things to happen.Cheng Zhuojun looked at the sky outside, except for the fog, he didn't know what was wrong with the weather today.He turned on his phone to check the weather conditions in City B, and then looked up at the sky.I finally knew what the staff said was bad.

"It's not foggy, it's hazy..."

Once you get unlucky, you really don't give up until you are unlucky.At 17:[-], Cheng Zhuojun was still sitting in the waiting hall.He went to check the flight information, and all he saw was a row of red "delays."More and more people gathered in the terminal, and all the people who flew everywhere are now trapped here, unable to leave.

Delays don't matter, what Cheng Zhuojun is most afraid of is canceling the flight, so he can't leave today even if he wants to.

Cheng Zhuojun prayed, at least, let him see Yue Chen within today, even for a second.

It's a pity that the gods are unwilling to be beautiful, and at 18:[-], Cheng Zhuojun still hasn't boarded the plane.Many passengers flew away one after another, and it seemed that he was the only one still waiting here, waiting for a flight that might not arrive.

Cheng Zhuojun took out his phone—as usual, he sent Yue Chen an emoji of "vomiting blood".Yue Chen seemed to be waiting for him, this time he replied within a few seconds.

Cheng Zhuojun raised the corners of his mouth slightly.He flipped through the records, and in the past few days, except for good morning, good night, vomiting blood, and hugs, they haven't said anything.They are very busy at work, and sometimes they are so busy that they can't even talk, but it doesn't mean they don't have the energy to manage this relationship.A few simple words and an expression contain many innumerable and unclear emotions——

Are you tired?

Did you eat well?

How's the weather over there? Have you got enough clothes on?

……

Perhaps those unspoken words have been expressed?

Cheng Zhuojun felt his nose sore when he looked at it, raised his other hand, and slowly typed a sentence.

"I feel wronged..."

It didn't take long for Yue Chen to reply: "What's the matter?" There was also a "hug" emoji underneath.

Cheng Zhuojun didn't reply, but just stared blankly at those three words and that expression.

After a while, Yue Chen called.

Cheng Zhuojun sniffed and cleared his throat before answering the phone.

"Mr. Zhuo?"

Yue Chen's voice came from the other end of the phone, low and gentle.

"En." Cheng Zhuojun only responded with one word, afraid that he would cry if he said too much.

"What's the matter with you?" Hearing his lover's voice, Yue Chen felt a little relieved. "Are you too busy at work?"

"Ah."

"It's okay, I can come back tomorrow. I'll cook something delicious for you when I come back."

Cheng Zhuojun's eyes were red, but he tried his best not to cry.

"how about you?"

"What?" Yue Chen didn't hear Cheng Zhuojun's abnormality.

"Why don't you talk about yourself?" Why do you always only think about me?

"Me? What's wrong with me?" Yue Chen couldn't help laughing. "What about myself? Probably because I really want to see you."

"..."

"Zhuo Jun? Why didn't you speak?"

Cheng Zhuojun opened his mouth, just about to say something.At this moment, some things that he couldn't think of before suddenly appeared in his mind, so shocking that he forgot everything he wanted to say.

"Mr. Zhuo?"

Yue Chen called him again.At this time, a female voice came from the airport to let passengers on a certain flight board.Yue Chen felt strange and asked, "Zhuo Jun, are you at the airport?"

Cheng Zhuojun was still in a daze, Yue Chen shouted several times before pulling some of his thoughts back to the real world.

"I..." Cheng Zhuojun had just uttered a word before he realized that his throat was uncomfortably bitter.

"Are you at the airport?"

"I'm here."

"Are you coming back today? Why didn't you say so?"

"However, the plane is delayed, and I may not be able to come back today."

Cheng Zhuojun suddenly became anxious and wanted to say something, but he felt the phone vibrate and turned off automatically.

Cheng Zhuojun pressed the power button for a long time, but the phone did not respond at all.He doesn't have the habit of closing applications. It seems that there are too many programs running in the background of the phone, which leads to a lot of power consumption.

"At this time..." Cheng Zhuojun clenched his phone tightly and sat on the chair, unable to even express his anxiety.

When talking to Yue Chen just now, some memories awakened without warning.Suddenly it caught him off guard.

Cheng Zhuojun looked up at the ceiling, not knowing how to face Yue Chen.

The author has something to say: Sometimes I feel that I have been abusing Cheng Zhuojun, I don’t know why... I didn't look for it carefully.Moreover, Cheng Zhuojun's character does not dare to talk to strangers (by borrowing a power bank), so let's set it like this...]
