Morbid Addiction

Ning Junyan drove Chen Yuncheng back.

Chen Yuncheng sat in the co-pilot, a little absent-minded all the way.

Until Ning Junyan parked the car at the entrance of Chen Yuncheng's small shop, before Chen Yuncheng got off the car, he said to him: "Take me to see Zhou Yan's child first, and I will talk to his attending physician."

Chen Yuncheng had already pulled off his seat belt, he nodded and asked, "When is it convenient for you?"

Ning Junyan said: "Tomorrow, I don't have surgery in the afternoon, so give me a call before you come here."

Chen Yuncheng replied: "Okay." Then he said: "Thank you."

Ning Junyan didn't speak.

After Chen Yuncheng got off the car, he stood on the side of the road and watched Ning Junyan drive the car away. He was still a little distracted, and found the key to the rolling shutter door after fumbling around for a long time.

After entering the store, Chen Yuncheng locked the door, but did not rush into the back room, but sat down on the chair at the counter.

He was always thinking about the words Ning Junyan told him.

He is 28 years old this year, and his living environment has been complicated since he was a child. He has been in contact with various people in the society, but he has never had a girlfriend because he has not met a suitable one.Most of the girls they can meet in this environment are from poor families, and they come out to work and earn money at a young age. Some of them take the initiative to show favor to him, but he just doesn't feel that way, and he doesn't feel that he can afford the burden of the family. responsibility.

Although the emotional experience is blank, it does not mean that he has no social experience to judge the world.

Ning Junyan said that what he said was a joke, but Chen Yuncheng felt that the two men were not joking like this.No one of his brothers and friends who have a good relationship will make such ambiguous jokes with him.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuncheng suddenly felt a little irritable, he reached out to pick up the opened cigarette case on the counter, and shook out a cigarette.He didn't usually smoke, and the cigarette was not lit, but just held in his mouth, as if it could relieve his anxiety a little.

He wants to borrow money from Ning Junyan, and it's not a small amount.With the involvement of money, many things became not simple. It was difficult for him to refuse Ning Junyan's request, and he had no idea what kind of request Ning Junyan would have from him.

Chen Yuncheng didn't hate Ning Junyan, not at all, even during the two years they just separated, he still missed Ning Junyan very much.But he never felt that he liked men, and Ning Junyan held his hand today, which made him a little awkward.After tomorrow, how should he continue to face Ning Junyan?

However, in the next second, Chen Yuncheng began to wonder if he was thinking too much.Maybe Ning Junyan was really just a joke. He wanted to recall every word and every expression of Ning Junyan today, but found that his memories were not very clear.Putting aside the childhood experience, Chen Yuncheng couldn't even think of the reason why Ning Junyan liked him. They were like people from two worlds. Because of childhood misfortunes, they had intersected. Now it is a rare thing to be friends. Bar.

Chen Yuncheng threw the cigarette on the counter casually.He had been sitting in the store for a long time, and he began to feel the coldness of the night eroding his body a little bit, so he got up and carried the small heater on the counter and went into the inner room.

He plugged in the heater, reached out and turned on the switch, the heater instantly emitted a strong orange light, but less than two seconds later, the heater's light suddenly disappeared.

Chen Yuncheng turned off the heater and turned it on again, but this time the heater was completely off.He unplugged angrily and left the broken heater in the corner of the room.

It wasn't until before going to bed that Chen Yuncheng remembered that Zhou Yan hadn't called him all this time.

It was already past 10:30 in the evening, Chen Yuncheng was sitting on the edge of the bed, covering the quilt, dialing Zhou Yan's phone, but Zhou Yan didn't answer it after many rings.

He was not sure if Zhou Yan was keeping vigil in the ward of the hospital. He turned off the sound of his mobile phone when he saw the time was late, for fear of affecting other patients and their families in the ward.

After hesitating for a while, Chen Yuncheng did not call Zhou Yan again, but sent a WeChat message, making it convenient for Zhou Yan to call him back.

As a result, Zhou Yan didn't call Chen Yuncheng back until the next morning.

Chen Yuncheng got up, and when he opened the store's shutter door, he put the phone on his shoulder, and called Zhou Yan again. This time, it's not that no one answered, but the call indicated that the other party had turned off the phone.

He was a little inexplicable, he didn't know what Zhou Yan meant by turning off the phone, or the phone ran out of battery when he got up in the morning.

Chen Yuncheng stood at the door of the store, hesitating whether to go directly to the hospital to find Zhou Yan right now.He wanted to quickly tell Zhou Yan about Ning Junyan's promise to lend money to the child to see a doctor, so that Zhou Yan could draw a clear line with Zhang Wenyong earlier, so that the impact on them could be minimized after the incident.

Afterwards, Chen Yuncheng wanted to call Gu Yaojia first, and asked her if Zhou Yan was still in the hospital.Just as he was looking for Gu Yaojia's phone number in the address book, a police car stopped in front of his shop.

Chen Yuncheng stopped, locked the phone screen and stuck it to his chest, watching Long Zhanyu and another familiar male policeman get out of the car together.

Long Zhanyu was wearing a crumpled down jacket, and his hair hadn't been properly taken care of. He looked haggard.

He was smoking a cigarette. After getting off the car, he held the cigarette in his hand and said to the other policeman, "I want a big bowl of miscellaneous sauce."

The policeman nodded, and went directly to the noodle shop next to Chen Yuncheng's store. It seemed that the two of them came to have breakfast nearby.

Long Zhanyu walked up to Chen Yuncheng and asked, "So early?"

Chen Yuncheng stuffed the phone into his trousers pocket and said, "Officer Long, are you on the night shift?"

Long Zhanyu said: "I worked overtime last night, I was busy all night, and now I have time to eat something."

Chen Yuncheng smiled, turned to look at the noodle shop over there, and said, "Noodles? Let me treat you."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to walk towards the noodle shop, but Long Zhanyu suddenly stopped him, "Hey! What did I ask you to inquire about?"

Chen Yuncheng stopped in his tracks, turned his head and said to Long Zhanyu: "Officer Long, you think highly of me, this area is so big, unless I keep an eye on those two X people every day, how can I know what they are after?" Do people come and go?"

Long Zhanyu looked a little serious, he said: "It's not that you don't know, you are just afraid of implicating your friend, so you dare not say it?"

Chen Yuncheng suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Long Zhanyu said, "Where is Zhou Yan?"

Chen Yuncheng asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Long Zhanyu sneered, "I'll give you a chance. It's not too late for you to ask Zhou Yan to surrender himself."

After finishing speaking, Long Zhanyu walked towards the noodle shop next to him, and he and his colleagues sat at a table by the side of the road.

Chen Yuncheng looked at them, and the two of them also looked at Chen Yuncheng. The other policeman said something to Long Zhanyu, but his eyes fell on Chen Yuncheng's face.Long Zhanyu nodded, reached out and took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder, put them on the table with a clean chopstick, and waited for his big bowl of noodles with mixed sauce to be cooked.

Chen Yuncheng turned around and went back to the shop, took out his mobile phone and called Guan Anlin.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected. Guan Anlin seemed to have not woken up, and his tone was impatient, "What's the matter?"

Chen Yuncheng asked: "Did something happen to Zhang Wenyong?"

Guan Anlin was silent for a moment, "How do you know?"

Chen Yuncheng asked: "What happened to Zhang Wenyong?"

Guan Anlin said: "The police came to take him away last night and asked him to assist in the investigation." After speaking, he paused for a while and asked again: "How do you know? You also betrayed him?"

Chen Yuncheng ignored him, but asked, "Where's Zhou Yan? Do you have any news about Zhou Yan?"

Guan Anlin said coldly, "No."

Chen Yuncheng said: "Okay." Then hung up the phone.

Guan Anlin wanted to taunt him, but when he hung up the phone suddenly, he threw the phone down on the bed angrily.

The author has something to say: Chen Yuncheng: There is one thing I am too embarrassed to say, I am 28 years old and I am still a virgin...

Ning Junyan: It doesn't matter, I'm still 30 years old.
