Sediment rises

Liang Yiwan's statement didn't change anything. Chen Zui still didn't dare to take even half a step. He was afraid that if he crossed the safe range allowed by Xiaoxuan, he would scare Xiaoxuan away and run to the place he could never find again. place.

He still does fixed things every day, stands in a fixed place, and looks at the only person.

Time has passed through late autumn and entered the cold winter. Mantou and Custard Bun have grown from two little milk cats into big cats that dare to scratch people.The two cats are afraid of the cold, and Lin Congxuan no longer takes them out to breathe, but he still sits downstairs or takes a walk every day.Liang Yiwan stopped coming every day because of his increasingly busy work, but he still promised to come three times a week.

Today is the company's annual meeting. As the general manager, Chen Zui couldn't be absent. It was already 10 o'clock in the evening when he got home.Feeling dizzy from drinking a lot of wine, the taxi driver called him several times before he realized that he had already arrived home.

Chen Zui entered the community and went around to the back of the apartment building. He looked up at the room selected by Lin Cong, but the lights were not on.

He thumped in his heart, looked at his watch, and checked the time. It was indeed not time for Xiaoxuan to go to bed.

At this time, the phone rang, and it was Liang Yiwan calling.

"Chen Zui, Xiaoxuan seems to have disappeared. I called him at night but no one answered, so I drove over, but there was no one at home, and his mobile phone was left at home. I am watching the surveillance at the property office. At that time, Mantou ran out of the unit building, and Xiaoxuan chased the cat out of the complex."

"Okay, I'll be right over here."

Chen Zui's drowsy head woke up instantly, and he rushed to the property office to meet Liang Yiwan.In the surveillance, Mantou rushed out from the north gate of the complex, followed by Lin Congxuan after him.

The two of them drove and walked separately, looking for the north direction.

The bitter cold wind made people's skin sore that they couldn't open their eyes, but Chen Zui couldn't feel it at all.Xiaoxuan didn't bring his mobile phone or wallet. If he got lost, he would be panicked and scared. Anxiety and worry occupied all of Chen Zui's senses.He and Liang Yiwan ran all the way, searched almost three kilometers to the north, but did not see Lin Congxuan, and did not get any important information from nearby merchants.

Chen Zui sat on the stone pier beside the green belt panting heavily, staring blankly at the opposite traffic light, his mind kept churning, trying to recall where Lin Congxuan might appear.The red light on the opposite side turned green, and his mind flashed, thinking of a place where Lin Congxuan might go.

When Lin Cong was in high school, one day after school, he was supposed to be waiting for Chen Zui to pick him up at the school gate. Later, he met an old lady who couldn't hear clearly and asked for directions.He was not good at communication and had a poor sense of direction. Seeing the old man stumbling and wanting to walk through the forest by himself, he had to follow carefully. As a result, he and the old lady got lost together.Fortunately, a well-meaning person called the police and sent the two to the police station.

Chen Zui and Uncle Zhao searched anxiously for two hours, and when they saw Lin Congxuan at the police station, he hugged Chen Zui with a look of tears on his face, acting like a baby.

To avoid a similar situation from happening again, Chen Zui not only strictly taught Lin Congxuan not to run around casually, but also called his family beforehand. He also told Lin Congxuan to find the brightest place and wait if he got lost.

Chen Zui's original words are: "If you get lost during the day, you can wait for me in a place with the best view; if you get lost at night, you can wait for me in the brightest place, and my brother will definitely find you."

Brightest spot!

Chen most quickly searched for nearby landmarks in his mind. The community he lives in is in the suburbs and there is no bustling business circle, but there are many science and technology parks nearby.Finally, Chen thought of the nearby Longyun Building. This building has installed an ultra-high-definition LED display screen of nearly 800 square meters, which will not be turned off until 0:[-].

When Chen Zui rushed to the Longyun Building panting, he saw a panicked and helpless person and a cat under the LED screen. He finally let out the breath that had been trapped in his chest, and Chen Zui's hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Small!"

After subconsciously calling out the first word, Chen Zuo fell silent in time. He suddenly remembered that he was no longer qualified to approach Xiaoxuan casually.He called Liang Yiwan and stood in the dark to watch.

The huge LED display screen is playing the city's tourism promotional video, and Lin Congxuan is obediently standing next to the landscape fountain.The cold wind was biting, but fortunately he was wearing a down jacket, and the steamed bun was wrapped in his clothes, and his head came out from the zipper on his chest. It raised its head and meowed. Lin Congxuan lowered his head and touched his nose, and then imitated it There was also a "meow".

Chen Zui picked up his mobile phone to record this beautiful scene.

Soon, Liang Yiwan arrived, and Chen Zui watched their car disappear out of sight before taking a taxi home.

Maybe it was because of the wind blowing for too long that night, the next day Chen Zui found himself with a stuffy nose, cough, and a cold.Fortunately, it was a weekend after the annual meeting. After delivering breakfast to Lin Congxuan, he went home and swallowed two cold medicines, intending to take a nap for a while before getting up to make lunch.

This sleep was very deep, and it was the best sleep Chen had had in recent times.

"Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu."

It wasn't until someone called him softly in his ear that Chen Zui opened his heavy eyelids. It took a long time for the fog in front of his eyes to gradually clear up. His mother Yang Qiaoshan was standing in front of the bed with a worried expression on her face.

"Mom, why are you here?" Chen Zui realized that his throat was hoarse and sore when he opened his mouth.

Yang Qiaoshan turned her back and quietly wiped away her tears. She made some desserts in the afternoon and wanted to give some to each of the two children today.Just now, she knocked on the door outside for a long time but no one answered, she thought that Chen Zui couldn't think about it anymore, and she didn't know where the strength came from, so she kicked the door open.After entering the room, she saw Chen Zui lying on the bed without a trace of anger. She checked her breath several times with trembling hands before confirming that Chen Zui was just asleep.

"I, I'm here to bring you something to eat." Yang Qiaoshan tried hard to force out a stiff smile.

Chen Zui nodded and looked at the window. It was pitch black outside and it was getting late.

"Oops, Mom, what time is it? Is Xiaoxuan still downstairs? I'll go and see!" He still remembered Lin Congxuan's getting lost last night, and he couldn't let it go.

Yang Qiaoshan pushed him back, sighed and replied: "It's past 8 o'clock, Yiwan sent Xiaoxuan home a long time ago."

"Ah, so..." Chen Zui replied in a daze, a little at a loss.

Yang Qiaoshan's eyes were red, her heart seemed to have been gouged out, with blood dripping, she asked Chen Zui: "Xiao Xu, do you know you have a fever?"

Chen Zui touched his forehead, it was a little hot, he shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be relaxed: "I have a cold, Mom, please find me some antipyretics."

Yang Qiaoshan stared at Chen Zui's thin cheeks, and then turned her gaze to Chen Zui's left hand, which was still bleeding and scarred. She knew that Chen Zui was using self-harm to vent all her emotions on herself.She choked up and asked, "Is it enough to just take cold medicine?"

Chen knew the deep meaning behind his mother's words best. He smiled and replied: "Mom, don't worry, I'm taking other medicines on time. I'm really fine. I will live a good life in this life, and I will live a certain life." It will last longer than Xiaoxuan, and I will guard him for the rest of my life."
