Promised period

In fact, Song Ke did not tell Cheng Yi'an about one thing.

His illness has not improved much, and he still sees Chen Jue these days.But Chen Jue never spoke to him again, just sat quietly on the sofa.

So he developed the habit of locking doors and windows before going to bed.

Once the window was closed, the room became much quieter, but it was hot, so hot that I always dreamed at night.

Last night, I dreamed that when Chen Zongyi had just left, Chen Jue was very busy and often had to stay up late to deal with matters with Mingtu.Chen Jue moved the laptop to the living room, closed the door for him, and only turned on a desk lamp to work.Chen Jue doesn't smoke at home because he knows Song Ke can't stand the smell of smoke.It always snows in Linjiang in winter, and there is a solid layer of ice crystals on the windows all the year round. Song Ke is sweating profusely from the heat of the electric blanket, and when she wakes up, there is still no one around her.

He called through the door: "Chen Jue?"

Soon there will be the creaking of old chairs and the sound of slippers.Chen Jue opened the door and walked over, his eyes were bloodshot, but he picked up his face and kissed him teasingly, the stubble pricked him slightly, making him uncomfortable.

"Go to bed first, I'm almost done."

Later Song Ke woke up and stared at the ceiling.There was light in the eyes and numbness in the fingers, and I got up to drink medicine in the middle of the night.The side effects of this medicine are very severe. After taking it, I feel nauseated, can't sleep all night, and sweat all over my body.

But anyway, he didn't tell anyone.

On the day he went back, he purchased a lot of local specialties, mainly tea and pastries, and the portions were solid.After sending him to the airport, Qin Binkai got out of the car to carry his luggage for him, but he almost fell when he lifted it.

"You have dumbbells in here, so heavy."

"I'll do it myself." Song Ke took it, and exchanged a sentence of emotion and teasing: "It's different when you are young. You can be so energetic when you are so thin. Let me say, it's too wasteful to use such a good body to run business , should stay in the computer room and work overtime."

Song Ke just laughed.

After completing the luggage check-in procedures, Qin Binkai sent him to the gate and asked him to wait.

"This is?"

"I promised to give you a gift, forgot?"

It's a small lighter. It's unattractive, but it doesn't look expensive.It's just that Song Ke felt a little inexplicable: "I don't smoke."

"I know," he said, "so no one must have given you a lighter. I was the first."

With such a solemn tone, the gift also became heavy, making it hard to refuse.Fortunately, after being stunned for a moment, Song Ke remembered another thing: "You'd better take it back."

"Why, you won't give me face?"

"I'm willing to give it to the customs but I won't." He put the gift box back in his bag, "A lighter cannot pass the security check."

Qin Binkai regretted on the spot.He patronized Xinyi and forgot such an important part, but this time it was a good thing, so he could only take it back in disgrace.

After getting on the plane, Song Ke slept soundly, and almost forgot about it when she got off the plane.

Back at work, everything is on track, except for weekly doctor visits.It was Cheng Yi'an who was quite regretful, and secretly investigated the situation during lunch: "I heard that Director Qin is a big celebrity in front of Fang Shaoyang, and he might follow him to Rongxin in the future. The future is limitless. If I have My sister has to make a match."

Song Ke couldn't find it funny: "Fortunately, you don't have a younger sister."

"How do you say this?"

Seeing his expression that you can understand, Cheng Yi'an will be mistaken and decide in his heart that there is really a problem.Look, I refuse to introduce it to others.

But jokes are jokes, and soon the two of them went back to intense work.Just when the memory was about to fade, Song Ke received a courier.When it was taken apart, it turned out to be the lighter.

It was so persistent that he secretly felt that he couldn't bear it.

There was also a card in the box. Qin Binkai's handwriting was correct and rigorous, as if he was copying a composition: "When you arrive in Linjiang soon, don't forget the favor you owe me."

It was a thoughtful gift, but he does not smoke, he just likes to watch people smoke.Knowing that it was a stupid behavior, but he just liked it.When the lighter was lit, blue flames jumped out, clustered together, someone lowered his head to hold it, and the smoke in his mouth moved towards it.He can look at that picture for a long time.

Wanting to put away the lighter, I opened the drawer and saw a lot of loose cigarettes inside, scattered in the corner of the drawer one by one.This is what he spent a lot of time collecting.Every time that person gave him a cigarette, he would keep it. If he didn't smoke, he would just collect it together and open it occasionally to have a look.

Then I got a call that night.

It was an unfamiliar number. Some people said that they had seen his cat in a certain place, and it had been caught in a cage. They asked him when it would be convenient for him to identify it.He was very grateful and left immediately after finishing work.

The agreed place is not far from the original home.

It's reasonable to think about it, maybe Xiao Jiu didn't run far, but just felt that the neighborhood was novel, so he walked around.

He ran over panting, but arrived a quarter of an hour early, so he could only stand at the intersection.

There are a few cars parked on the side of the road, and there are a few cafes and convenience stores open on both sides of the street.He held the empty flight case in his hand, all he could think about was taking Xiao Jiu home, and he didn't notice that someone was watching from across the road.

Later, someone came from a distance with a cat bag, dressed as a college student, looking around as if looking for someone.Song Ke immediately took the initiative to greet the other party: "Hello! Here."

"I'm Song Ke, did you call me?"

"Yes, that's me."

The person who came wore a pair of glasses and looked quite ordinary, but his eyes always wandered when he spoke. The cow kitten in the bag was meowing softly, and there was a lot of mud on its black and white hair and paws.

"I picked it up at the door of my house. It looks clean and doesn't look like a stray cat."

Song Ke was squatting there, and when she heard the words, she raised her head without caring to take a closer look: "I raised it. It wandered in the waves when it was a child, but I adopted it when it was five months old. I have many photos of it."

But the man didn't seem to be interested, and he didn't want to bother to confirm whether he was the real owner, so he stuffed the bag into his arms: "Since it's yours, take it away, here."

"Thank you so much." Song Ke was just about to shake hands with him on the busy road, put down her bag and wanted to transfer Xiao Jiu to the box, but she just stood there in a daze as soon as she carried her out.

wrong……

This is not Xiao Jiu.

Raising his head, he opened his eyes slightly: "This is not my cat."

The other party gave an exaggerated ah, eyes still looking left and right, rubbing his hands together nervously: "Is it, why not? It looks exactly the same as in the photo."

In an instant, Song Ke was extremely disappointed.

It was like riding a roller coaster. After a whole night of anticipation and anxiety, I really saw a very similar cat, but it was not his little Jiu.He collected himself and concealed the disappointment in his heart: "Thank you, but this is indeed not my cat. My cat has a circle of black hair around its left eye, not its right eye."

Maybe the other party just looked at the photo and made a mistake, so I am very grateful for calling him to come and identify it.

After hearing what he said, the college student in front of him was embarrassed: "Oh, I made a mistake, I'm sorry, then...then you should take this cat away, anyway, I don't want to adopt it." As if he couldn't make up his mind, he said, "Wait, wait, I'll call and ask, and I don't know what to do with it."

Then went to the side to make a phone call.

The car on the opposite side of the road still didn't drive away, and stopped silently under the streetlight.Song Ke's heart was empty, and she didn't know where to go for a while, so she had to squat down to look at the kitten.

He turned his back to the road, and cast a look on his back, but he didn't know it.

What a mistake.

Maybe it was because the lights were too dim before, and at first glance, I thought it looked exactly like Xiao Jiu, but now that I looked closely, it was not very similar.The kitten in front of him was slimmer than Xiao Jiu, without alopecia areata on the back of his neck, and his personality was much more lively.He teased it with his fingers, and it immediately grinned back.

Probably this is really the character of a stray cat, it is rare to be as gentle as Xiaojiu, who usually ignores everything.

The man came back from the phone call and said he wanted to take it away, Song Ke returned it, feeling slightly reluctant to part, because after all, there was a chance.Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened the lid of the air box, I was scratched by a paw, and it slammed!

He withdrew his hands in pain, and the college student also panicked, leaning over in a panic to see how he was hurt.

"It's okay, there's no blood."

"That's fine, that's fine..."

I found nothing and had to go home.

The vehicles coming and going on the road, the warm yellow street lamps in the distance are like the eyes of the night, and the cold stars like broken silver are dotted in the sky.He walked along the sidewalk all the way, and before he knew it, he lost his way.

I don't know why, but I think of the day when I found Xiao Jiu.

When Chen Jue woke up, he didn't know anyone, even he forgot.Lying on the bed and looking at Song Ke, his first words were: "Who are you to me?"

Song Ke opened his mouth and looked at him speechlessly.He asked his sister again: "Why are you crying?"

Chen Nian said, "I'm glad you woke up."

You should be happy.

I thought it would be good if he woke up, but when he woke up, I prayed for more things.Later, Chen Nian deliberately went out for a while, leaving them some private space.

Song Ke sat by the hospital bed and could only look at him like that.He still couldn't move and didn't know how badly he was hurt.

"what is your name?"

Song Ke adjusted the infusion tube for him, her hands were shaking, and the tube was shaking too: "My name is Song Ke."

He was very depressed, but he also said thank you hoarsely.

"Sit down and call the nurse to fix it."

Song Ke nodded and sat down again.

He asked: "Song of the Song Dynasty?"

"Ah."

"What about Nako?"

What's wrong, you deliberately didn't tell me your name when you first met, and now you pretend you don't remember my name.Song Ke was so sad that she wanted to laugh, and silently gripped the bed frame tightly.

"There is one next to the word Wang."

Chen Jue suddenly understood: "Ake's Ke."

Wei Xiaobao is obsessed with A Ke, but it is a pity that A Ke has a miserable life experience and is confused. Not only did he avenge the wrong revenge several times, but he almost killed Wei Xiaobao by mistake.When I was young, Song Ke watched The Deer and Ding Ji and felt that the story was a lie after all. In reality, this is a very unfavorable couple.

He only came back to his senses when the traffic light was turned green.

The red light blinked like an eye blinking, someone was watching him.Turning his head, he saw a black car not far away, and the person driving it seemed to be Chen Jue.

What's the matter, I fell ill again?

I never thought that this disease would be so difficult to treat, but now that I have recovered, I returned to Linjiang and returned to the pre-liberation overnight.He stood at the intersection with tinnitus and dizziness, so he stopped to take medicine.

I lowered my head to look through my bag, but the busier and more chaotic I got, the mineral water fell from my hand and rolled along the bones of the ground to the middle of the road.

Someone opened the car door and bent over to pick it up, walking towards him.But he didn't have the energy to take care of the bottle of water anymore, he just took out two pills and swallowed them down like that.As a result, the pill choked in his throat and couldn't go down or up, and he coughed earth-shatteringly as he patted his chest.

I don't know why the new life has become like this at the beginning, and it has become so bad, which makes people laugh and cry.

Chen Jue frowned and came to stop him, and patted his back hard.The touch is very real, and the pain is also very real.Horns rang from all directions, because Chen Jue's car was parked in an inappropriate place.Song Ke realized that this was true, and there was really no way to go on like this, so she wanted to leave quickly.

As a result, Chen Jue didn't speak, just took his hand and left.

He asked anxiously: "What are you doing?"

But Chen Jue's strength is always so strong, and he won't let go of his wrist.Song Ke struggled as hard as she was breastfeeding, but it didn't help, her forehead felt dizzy for a while, and she didn't know whether it was from choking or illness.

When he was finally dragged into the car, he had difficulty breathing, lying on the back of the chair, panting heavily.Chen Jue's attitude suddenly softened again, staring at his face and said: "You have a fever."

He unscrewed the mineral water bottle again and fed him water in small sips.

In fact, where there is a fever, it is that his face turns red from choking, and now he is dizzy from anxiety.He struggled to prop himself up and pushed away the bottle of water in front of him.

Chen Jue still looked at him, as if he couldn't get enough.

How much she once wanted to see this person, but now Song Ke is so afraid of seeing him.In fact, it's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I want to start again and forget all about the past.He didn't want himself to be as hopeless as that night, and he didn't even care about his life.

Barely trying to calm himself down, he wiped the water off his lips with his sleeve, and then slowly tightened the bottle cap: "I really didn't expect to meet Mr. Chen here."

The body of the bottle is cold, but the palm is hot and wet.

As a result, Chen Jue remained silent.

He had no choice but to look even colder, and reached out to push the door, but Chen Jue refused to unlock the car door.The corner of his mouth sank slightly: "I'm leaving, you—"

I really can't figure out why you tortured him like this?

"Let's talk." Chen Jue said.

"What can I talk to you about? I want to go home and rest, please don't show up again in the future. I have to go to work and live, I'm not like you, I—"

"I remember."

Chen Jue suddenly told him.

Song Ke's body froze, her back turned to him motionless, but she could see Chen Jue in the rearview mirror from the corner of her eye.

It was already very dark, the lights in the car were not turned on, and a little light on the side of the road reflected on Chen Jue's face, so he couldn't see his face clearly.But his voice was hoarse, hoarse and clear.

"I remember everything about the past, Song Ke, I remember that I loved you, and that you loved me too. Why do we have so much past? When I think about it, I can't finish it for days and nights .Song Ke, what should we do? I really don't know what should we do..."

He thought of the three years they were together, the words they said, the vows they made, the rings, the phone recordings, the meals he had with Song Ke, the movies they watched together, and the shopping. The supermarkets they passed by, I even thought of Song Ke’s favorite kind of grapefruit, how high the water would be boiled for Song Ke’s bath, the subway route they took to work and after work, and Song Ke leaning on his shoulder doze off.

He remembered the coat that Song Ke wore when he met Song Ke for the first time, the night when he kissed for the first time, he couldn't help it, he remembered the first time he proposed to Song Ke so nervous that his legs became stiff, and he remembered the first time that he broke up because of arguing Song Ke told him to get out, but ended up guarding by the window to see if he really left.

Too much past, too many words, too much time together.

I prayed to God and worshiped Buddha, and finally got my wish.

But what's the use?Let him forget and remind him that compassion is cruelty.He has no other way to go but regret, and no one understands what he is thinking, except Song Ke.But even Song Ke didn't see him anymore, he had to rack his brains to see Song Ke, he needed to spend a lot of effort to find a similar cat, and then he could get such a short few minutes.

He couldn't even tell Song Ke more words, more words from his heart, because he was afraid that even these few minutes would be lost.His time was stolen, his time with Song Ke.
