Promised period

After dinner, I drove to the nearby Jinmao shopping mall, and it took about ten minutes just to find a parking space.Chen Jue felt that it was a waste of time, and frowned so much that he could kill a fly: "I should have gone to Starlight World if I knew it earlier, there are few people there."

Song Ke didn't take it seriously: "There are few people there, but there are many people who are taken advantage of. A drink starts at 50 yuan."

Of course, there was another reason. The two of them used to visit Jinmao often.

Walking to the first floor, he pointed to the store that sold luxury goods, and said, "For a while, you liked this brand very much. You bought all your leather shoes and ties from it."

Chen Jue glanced at him, as if he didn't quite believe his words: "I used to have such bad taste?"

"If you don't believe me, go in, maybe the clerk knows you."

Unbelievable, Chen Jue took off his coat and watch for Song Ke to hold, and let Song Ke hold the car keys in his hands. He entered the store wearing only a shirt with no discernible brand.The result was unexpected but also reasonable. The three shop assistants circled around Song Ke, but Chen Jue was treated coldly, and the other party refused to answer any questions he asked.

He picked up a pair of patent leather handmade leather shoes: "Find me a pair of size 44, black."

"sorry, out of stock."

"It's out of stock, can't you call it?"

"This is a limited spring show model. There is only one pair in each store with the gold code. You can't adjust it if you want, sir."

In fact, the attitude is quite normal, but Chen Jue's face is really not good-looking, probably he has never been rejected so directly.

Song Ke was watching the fun, and when she had seen enough, she said to the two shop assistants beside her, "Go and greet my boss, I'm just his driver."

"driver?"

"Yeah, it doesn't look like it." He compared the suit on his arm, "The driver and attendant are responsible for taking his clothes and watch."

The two gasped and surrounded them, their attitudes were completely different immediately.Chen Jue is not the kind of narrow-minded person, and he doesn't care about them, so he chose another pair that caught the eye and sat down to try them on.

Someone brought small biscuits, Song Ke said thank you, and kept her eyes on Chen Jue.

The last time I went here by myself, I bought shoes with a unit price of more than 4000 yuan by accident, but I never wore them again after my birthday. I still feel pain when I recall it.

Think about it, maybe I don't really like those shoes, but I just want to relive the things I did with Chen Jue.Now I come here again, but I am no longer alone, leather shoes and ties are not important, Chen Jue goes to try it, just wait.

When paying the bill, he stood up and almost fainted when he saw the receipt: "You actually spent more than 4 yuan for two pairs of shoes?"

"There's a pair for you."

He was slightly stunned, but Chen Jueyun narrowed his eyes lightly: "Next time, I want me to swipe my card and tell me directly, instead of coaxing me into this kind of place by beating around the bush." ​​Then he smiled slightly.

Song Ke also laughed, picked up her shoes and left, "I should have coaxed you to go to the sales office if I knew it earlier, and I'll see if you're still generous by then."

Chen Jue chased after him: "What are you running for?"

"Let's go, let's go, they are going to bow and say goodbye again."

When he turned his head and saw the clerk seeing off the customers at the door, he finally understood.Looking back, Song Ke had already walked to the top of the escalator, holding a boxy shopping bag in each of her left and right hands. Because she was thin, she looked a little unsteady.

It's just such a picture, Chen Jue feels happy for no reason.Maybe it's because only he can see Song Ke's alert and lovely side, maybe it's because Song Ke stopped far away and waited for him, with a faint but genuine smile on her face.

The movie theater is on the top floor. Like all couples, one went to exchange tickets and the other went to buy popcorn and drinks.

Because it was an evening movie, there were all couples around, and some even wore school uniforms and carried sports backpacks.After exchanging tickets, Song Ke turned around and saw Chen Jue was still standing at the shopping counter. One side of the counter was the original flavor and the other was chocolate flavor, which made him face a difficult situation.

Song Ke walked over, mouthing like a spirit behind her back: "It's the original flavor, right? Your fingers will turn black after eating the chocolate one."

Chen Jue didn't know what to think, and finally chose the chocolate flavor.

The movie is not particularly good-looking, it's just an ordinary literary film, with beautiful pictures but lackluster plot.There were few people sitting in the hall, and snoring could be faintly heard from half of the corners.

When the hero and heroine reunited, Song Ke held the popcorn and chewed it lightly, trying not to make too much noise.Chen Jue turned his head and looked at him quietly in the dim light.

It's really exciting.Sitting like this, with glasses on the bridge of his nose, his eyes are focused and gentle, like a young talent in the research institute who is dedicated to overcoming difficulties, and he will never be stained with mortals all his life.

How could my vision be so good before?When I met Song Ke among all living beings, I fell in love at first sight, and after many years, he was still by my side.

Song Ke didn't turn her face away, but she also noticed Chen Jue's gaze, and felt a little puzzled after being relieved: "What's wrong, I ate it all over my face?"

As a result, his face was turned away and he kissed silently.

I always feel that the relationship is deeper than before.

The taste of chocolate was too weak, so Chen Jue covered Song Ke's body with a coat, and tasted it carefully in a completely dark and quiet environment.Song Ke wanted to resist but couldn't make a sound. She pushed the person away with her weak hands, as if she wanted to refuse and welcome.

"Chen Jue..." His voice trembled, "Concentrate on watching the movie."

"Don't look at it."

Taking people out of the theater, Chen Jue walked up the stairs to the underground parking lot without saying a word the whole time.

After getting into the car, Song Ke was pinned down in the back seat, with little time to react.Chen Jue seems to want to make up all the missed times, and he has no spare time to choose the time and occasion, and when he wants Song Ke, he will ask for it immediately.

Anyone passing by outside will definitely see it.

Swaying like a boat, Song Ke thought in a trance in the car, people must think the two of them are shameless.But he can't control that much anymore, he misses Chen Jue too much.

How many times have I dreamed that Chen Jue is still there, and I have not forgotten anything.The bathroom was flooded with water, and the second-hand washing machine was buzzing.Chen Jue came out of the toilet and yelled: "Next month, I have to change the washing machine. If this continues, I guess the water will flood into the living room, believe it or not?"

Song Ke on the sofa was checking the deposit figures, thinking about whether he would be able to pay his salary next month, but he didn't hear what he said clearly.Chen Jue came over and took off his glasses: "You don't even listen to me now?"

Song Ke raised her head, with a thin layer of annoyance in her eyes, but her gaze was a little dull: "Who made you talk so much nonsense all day long."

Chen Jue just laughed: "Why, do you hate me?"

"Give me back my glasses."

As a result, he put it on the refrigerator in one stride, and Song Ke was so angry that he pointed at his nose and said, "Are you too energetic, what if you make less trouble? Go, hang the clothes."

Chen Jue, who is rough and fleshy, is not afraid of scolding, humming a song and went to the balcony, and teased in a low voice while hanging out: "When you are happy, you have a knife mouth, and when you are unhappy, you are also a knife mouth. Why did I fall in love with you in the first place? ?”

But there is still a word that he didn't say, he just loves Song Ke like this.He wants that aggressive mouth, that soft heart, and even more so, that pair of resolute bones.

At that time, Chen Jue did those things just to get Song Ke's attention.Now he doesn't have to do anything, Song Ke's full attention is on him.

The inside of the car was dim, and Chen Jue looked at the people under him.Probably because of being tired, Song Ke looked very thin, and his face was a little pale, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Jue's face clearly, as if no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't get enough of it.

Chen Jue wiped his sweat for him, but kissed his eyes lightly: "It hurts to say."

He went to suck his fingertips again, it was sweet, chocolate flavor.

Song Ke gasped and nodded, but she didn't make any sound until the end. She endured when she was comfortable, and endured when she was uncomfortable. Only when she was the most addicted, she would call Chen Jue's name.

Later, he didn't even have the strength to stand up, and his legs kept shaking because of his poor physical condition.Chen Jue didn't know, thought he was cold, so he covered him with a coat, drove by himself, and let him sleep in the back.

The exit of the parking lot is a slope, and there is an empty construction site outside. A former office building has been demolished.This place in Linjiang is changing day by day, except for the memory, nothing else is the same as before.

When passing the speed bump, the body bumps, and the person wakes up.

Song Ke opened her eyes vaguely, and saw the silver plate-like moon hanging in the sky, and the office building was lit.

It was a night like this when I walked home after watching a movie with Chen Jue.The moon was bright and clear, protecting them silently, holding their hands quietly in the pockets of their down jackets, not worried about being discovered by anyone.

At that time, Chen Jue didn't have the scars from the cigarette burn on his palms, but he was gentle and warm, holding Song Ke's hand in his pocket.As Song Ke walked, recalling the plot in the movie, she felt a little bit lost in her heart, because Chen Jue was going on a business trip to the south in a few days, and that was the longest time they had been separated in the first two years.

"Try not to meet clients by yourself when I'm away, and you'll suffer if you drink too much on the table."

"There are also senior brothers."

"Him?" Chen Jue snorted, "I'm more powerful than him since I was ten years old."

Song Ke was very afraid that he would be competitive at the wine table, so she didn't praise him, but said: "When you get there, remember to wear sunscreen. The sun by the sea is also very poisonous in winter, so don't take it seriously."

"know."

"Don't patronize and play, the business must be settled."

"know."

"Don't eat local food indiscriminately. If you eat badly, there is no one to take care of you. It is inconvenient to go to the hospital alone."

Chen Jue no longer said he knew, but just squeezed his hand tightly: "Are you reluctant to part with me?"

Song Ke lowered her head and saw the long shadows of the two standing side by side on the road: "I'm afraid you won't be able to negotiate a deal."

"Don't worry," Chen Jueshu raised his eyebrows, "I will definitely find a way to get the other party to sign."

After winning that contract, the company's revenue for the next quarter will be settled.But Song Ke was still sad, because after talking so much, she just wanted him to promise to take good care of herself.

On the day I left, the airport was overcrowded, and the overhead radio broadcast flight information non-stop.Chen Jue put the luggage on the conveyor belt, and Song Ke quietly watched him go through the formalities, watched him enter the customs, and watched him turn around and wave goodbye to him.

After returning home, I was so uncomfortable that I didn't want to eat, because I missed Chen Jue very much as soon as we left, but I didn't want to act like I couldn't leave him, and I didn't want to call him all the time.

Naturally, I suffered from insomnia that night, and I couldn't sleep well for several days later, because Chen Jue was like a wild horse that had run away, and he didn't know how to come back after he left.It wasn't until late at night on the day when Song Ke was supposed to return home that she was going to sleep that she suddenly called back.

"Are you asleep?"

The night wind in the south is very strong, his voice seems to be far away, but he is a little excited.

Song Ke didn't speak, so he asked again: "Song Ke, can you hear me?"

Song Ke held the phone tightly, and put the earpiece against her ear, just buried her head in anger at him: "I can hear you."

He laughed hoarsely over there, and when he heard it, he was drunk: "I got the contract, and the budget is 20.00% more than what was negotiated before, and the payment will be made in three installments."

Song Ke felt uncomfortable, so she hung up the phone with a snap, but dialed back in a few seconds.

After picking it up, Chen Jue gasped heavily and wheezed, which sounded a bit uncomfortable.He said: "I drank too much at night and felt like throwing up."

Song Ke muffled: "Drink you to death."

He wasn't angry, he just called out in a hoarse voice: "Song Ke."

"What?"

He doesn't speak.

Song Ke's heart fluttered and she asked him, "When will you come back?"

He said, "I love you."

It is rare to hear him say these three words, especially that night, he was very serious and solemn.It's been so long, Song Ke only feels regret, and didn't reply him at that time: "I love you too."

At that time, we were only separated for seven days, but it felt like the sky was falling.Who would have imagined that they would be separated for so long afterward, so long that parting would be regarded as normal, and so long that they would watch a movie and eat together again, Song Ke would hesitate, whether it was real or an illusion.

Chen Jue's coat smelled faintly of cigarettes.Song Ke pulled up her clothes, covered her face without saying a word, and shed tears quietly for a while.

He stayed in the apartment at night and slept soundly because he was exhausted. He didn't notice that Chen Jue got up in the middle of the night.Someone sent a text message to Chen Jue, saying that he had found something about Song Ke's father and needed him to listen to it as soon as possible.
