????? "Hello!" Lin Chen didn't feel at peace because of the ridicule, but Gu Qinghan's ice-cold face made the anxious fire in his heart burn even more.He grabbed Gu Qinghan's shoulder again and wanted to continue talking, but the ring that fell into the lake did not attract his attention.

But Gu Qinghan stared at the direction where the ring fell into the water, and his cold face instantly seemed to be condensed with frost.Lin Chen's continuous pushing and yelling finally made him turn around, and Lin Chen was taken aback for a moment by the cold eyes that almost pierced people's hearts.

"roll."

Lin Chen heard his cold voice.

The lake water in deep winter was icy cold, but Gu Qinghan walked straight over there, stepping in without hesitation.The water in the scenic lake reached his knees, and the moment he stepped into the cold water, his fragile heart was suddenly ached.Gu Qinghan closed his eyes for a moment, but still did not leave. He took a deep breath and bent down to find the ring.

There are dead branches and leaves blown in by the wind and some other debris floating in the lake water, and a thin layer of soil is deposited on the bottom of the lake. It is not easy to find such a small thing.Gu Qinghan lowered his head to search, his pale and slender fingers were red and swollen from the icy lake water.Whether it was the cold wind or the cold water, it made him numb from the pain.

The ring was the only thing that person left him. He wore it carefully for four years and never left it for a moment. There was even a faint mark on his ring finger.He regards it as a treasure and is determined not to lose it.

The chest was cold and stuffy, but the pain seemed to be more insensitive than usual, Gu Qinghan ignored it, and just fumbled for his ring in the water, it was all his hopelessness and his only sustenance.If he can't get it back——if he can't get it back, just thinking about it makes him feel sour.

Jiang Qi invited a few partners to dinner at noon. After returning to the company, the secretary made tea and brought it to his office as usual.

By the way, Jiang Qi checked with her the afternoon to-do list.

"By the way, Mr. Jiang," the secretary suddenly remembered when he was about to leave, "I have your package in the morning, and Mr. Lin signed for it for you."

"What is it?"

"It's your coat from the dry cleaner."

After the secretary closed the door and went out, Jiang Qi thought about it and called Lin Chen.

"Where are you?" He asked directly after connecting.

"...What's wrong?" Lin Chen sounded a little hesitant.

"Where are my clothes?"

?…………

After a while of silence, Lin Chen finally spoke calmly, "I sent it back to Gu Qinghan. Just now."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen stared at that person's figure for a long time with unclear eyes before leaving. He couldn't tell whether he was afraid or something else, he didn't want to wait until Jiang Qi.

When Jiang Qi arrived at the hospital, he went straight to Gu Qinghan's office. He was worried that Lin Chen's impulsiveness would cause embarrassment.But Gu Qinghan was not there, and Ning Ze told him that the man had gone to pick up Gu Nian.Resting his heart, Jiang Qi slowly walked out of the outpatient hall of the hospital, but he kept frowning. Thinking of the showdown between him and Lin Chen, he still felt a little uneasy.

The people who came and went seemed to be talking about something, pointing at the lake.Jiang Qi looked over there, and there was a figure standing in the lake, supporting the edge of the lake with one hand and lowering his head to endure something.The moment he recognized that person, his heart suddenly rose again.

"Are you crazy?!" He strode towards the lake, grabbed Gu Qinghan's arm on the edge of the lake, "What are you doing?"

Gu Qinghan raised his head bluntly, his face was pale with cold, his lips were cyanotic, but his eyes were completely red.Jiang Qi only held his arm, and he could feel the trembling all over his body.

"What are you looking for?!" Jiang Qi asked again, suppressing his anger.

Gu Qinghan stared at him obsessively, that gaze was like a shattered moonlight, which made his heart ache for no reason, "My ring..." Gu Qinghan's voice was hoarse and weak.

Hearing this, Jiang Qi felt dizzy suddenly. He lowered his head and endured for a long time before growling from deep in his throat, "Come out!"

Feeling Jiang Qi's forceful pull, Gu Qinghan's consciousness was a little clear from the cold and drowsy, "Go away..." He tried to break free from Jiang Qi's restraint, but the water was slippery, his body had already been frozen numb, just pushed During the Kaijiang period, he fell backwards into the icy lake.

Jiang Qi's heart almost jumped out. The moment Gu Qinghan fell into the water, he jumped in without even thinking about turning over, and hugged her.

"Are you injured?" Jiang Qi asked eagerly. The water was so icy that he trembled all over. He still wanted to hug Gu Qinghan out of the water, but the latter was still weakly resisting, "Be good!"

"Jiang Qi—" Gu Qinghan's voice trembled, "I haven't found my ring..." His eyes were red, and he looked at Jiang Qi as if he was about to cry in the next second.

Jiang Qi was taken aback for a moment, feeling sour and desolate in his heart, and while he lowered his eyes patiently, he caught a glimpse of silver in the mud from the corner of his eye.He reached out to touch it, and it was indeed the ring that Gu Qinghan hadn't seen.With a sullen face, he raised the ring in front of Gu Qinghan, who snatched it away.

"Thank you, Jiang Qi... Thank you..." Gu Qinghan choked up, clutching the lost and recovered ring tightly to protect his chest. Jiang Qi glanced at him and saw that his eyelashes were already wet, and big tears flowed from his eyes. His red eyes fell down.Jiang Qi felt that his heart had sunk to the bottom of this icy lake, he still hugged Gu Qinghan and stepped out of the lake.

Gu Qinghan was trembling violently in his arms, his breathing was short of breath, and his consciousness was not clear enough.Jiang Qi carried him quickly to the outpatient building.

"I didn't believe you cared so much about Yan Jin before." He said, with the wind whistling in his ears.

"No..." Gu Qinghan murmured in a semi-conscious state, "No..." His voice was broken and out of tune.Obviously he couldn't open his eyes, his ears were buzzing and he couldn't hear anything clearly, and even all his perceptions were infinitely eliminated, but he still felt that Jiang Qi was so sad.
