Promised period

Chen Jue's lips were bitter, perhaps because he had just taken medicine.He looked at Song Ke stiffly, and there was a lot of confusion in his eyes for a moment. He didn't know why Song Ke behaved like this suddenly.

Song Ke also looked at him quietly, as if the kiss just now was just a temporary thought, but the fingers on both sides of the pajamas were so tight that they turned white.

It took a while before I heard a sentence: "Song Ke, am I dreaming?"

Song Ke was dizzy and her eyes were hot. She didn't know how to explain her behavior just now.In fact, I haven't thought about many things yet, but I wanted to do that at that moment.

He avoided the urgent gaze in front of him, but Chen Jue tightened his arms, lowered his head, so low that he couldn't lower his face, his face was close to his face, and he could almost feel each other's breath.

"Is it a dream?"

But after hesitating for a moment without speaking, Chen Jue inhaled slightly, clutched his arms and kissed again.

His lips were cold and their surface was dry, but Song Ke's lips were warm and moist.The reason why the tactile sensation is so clear is that neither of them moved, nor did they respond, they were just sticking together.

Later, Song Ke felt that he had been so stiff for too long, it was outrageous, she moved away a little, and called his name: "Chen Jue." It meant to stop.

Chen Jue paused slightly, and slowly straightened up: "I'm sorry."

Perhaps the action just now was too offensive.

Song Ke hastily changed the subject: "Is your head still hurting?"

"much better."

"That's good……"

Then he didn't speak any more.

Chen Jue let go, and asked him after a long time: "Are we together now?"

In fact, the answer is obvious, but for some reason Song Ke couldn't say "yes", so she had to keep silent.Maybe the grudge in my heart has not been completely eliminated, at least Chen Jue thinks so.

He said to Song Ke: "I understand what you mean. It's okay, I can continue to wait. It's very rare for you to give me a chance, and I won't ask for more."

Being too close, his face is very blurred, and his voice is also very hoarse, with echoes from the chest cavity.

Song Ke was quiet for a while, feeling that she should say something, but before she could speak, Chen Jue said again: "I understand, you don't have to feel embarrassed."

Song Ke had no choice but to stop.

That kiss was like charity, or pity, Chen Jue had already decided that.He was vaguely disappointed in his heart, but he didn't want to speak out.

But Song Ke didn't fully understand what he was thinking, Song Ke just felt that they were one step closer.It was still like hopscotch, jumping on one leg, trembling, and standing unsteadily, but in the end it was another step forward.

A faint reflection of a tree branch on the glass window is slowly shaking.

After listening to the sound of the rain quietly for a while, Song Ke turned her head sideways like that, and gradually fell asleep.He curled up in Chen Jue's arms like a child, he couldn't stretch his limbs a little bit, but he felt very at ease in his heart.

Chen Jue couldn't sleep.

Hugging his most important person, he didn't want to let go and couldn't hug too tightly, lest Song Ke would feel a little uncomfortable.After hugging for a long time, my hands were stiff and my legs were numb, but my brain was still extremely clear.

Finally, she leaned over silently, tentatively pushed aside the bangs on Song Ke's forehead, and kissed between his brows.Song Ke might have sensed it, and suddenly frowned.

Chen Jue withdrew immediately.

He remembered that he was very dull in the past, obviously living together all day long, but he still didn't realize the pain in Song Ke's heart.Now as long as he is with Song Ke, he will always be full of energy, trying to figure out Song Ke's thoughts bit by bit, and repeatedly recalling every word and every action Song Ke said to him.

He didn't know how long he would have to think about these two kisses today.

The next morning Song Ke was unusually late.

He was the only one in the bedroom, and he went downstairs after hastily washing up. He could already smell the tangy aroma before reaching the dining room.Aunt Gu called him with a smile: "Are you awake? Come over for breakfast. Chen Jue went out to buy it early in the morning."

Looking over, the fried dough sticks and soy milk have been placed on the table, and it seems that they have just been bought.

His cheeks became inexplicably hot, and he couldn't help asking: "Where is Chen Jue?"

"I went to wash my hands. He went to the hospital when he came together in the morning. After the examination, he stopped by to buy something early. I just came back 10 minutes ago. I was going upstairs to call you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jue appeared at the door of the restaurant. His suit was neatly ironed, and there was nothing unusual about it.When their eyes met, Chen Jue asked him, "Did you sleep well?" Song Ke gave an unnatural "hmm", and then looked away.

This breakfast was also unusually quiet.

After eating, the two went to work and took Chen Jue's car.Chen Jue fastened his seat belt for him, and he dodged for a while: "I'll do it myself."

Chen Jue let go of his hand.

He felt uncomfortable and changed the subject: "What did the doctor say in the morning?"

"Everything is normal." Chen Jue's voice was very steady, and he didn't remember until the car stopped at the traffic light, "Should I tell my brother about our affairs?"

Song Ke didn't look sideways, but just looked at the front and pursed her lower lip: "Don't use it for now, we'll talk about it later."

In fact, it's more about not knowing how to speak than not wanting to say it. Cheng Yi'an knows them best along the way, and he is also a teacher and friend with them. To confess the relationship between the two to such a senior brother is more or less a little bit Embarrassed.But Chen Jue didn't ask, so he didn't explain.

After arriving in the park, he felt that it was too late: "I'll go there first, you park the car and come back." Chen Jue sat in the car and looked at him quietly, and nodded his head after two seconds, but when Song Ke turned around She stopped him again: "Wait."

"Ok?"

"You forgot one thing."

Song Ke bent down: "What's the matter?"

Chen Jue poked his head out slightly, tilted his head and kissed him.

That's the beginning, probably the beginning.

Since then they often have dinner together, most of the time Chen Jue waits for Song Ke, sometimes too late, until one or two o'clock in the morning, Song Ke will accompany him home if he feels sorry, and stay in Chen's villa for one night .

Occasionally, Song Ke would also think, has she really let go of the grudges in her heart?Can't think of an answer, so I just don't want to.

On the third floor of the villa, only Chen Jue lives by himself. After Song Ke often passed by, it became the two of them, and the guest room was still vacant.Aunt Gu prepared an extra set of bedding for their room, but they seldom used it because it was hot in summer and a blanket was enough.

Although living together, they hardly do full sets at night.Song Ke is reserved and reserved, and never takes the initiative to ask for it. It is not surprising that Chen Jue has not fully recovered from the surgery. It is normal that he needs less in that respect.

But Chen Jue will still take care of Song Ke's feelings.

In this matter, he was more thoughtful than before. Even though he only used his mouth and hands at night, Song Ke often made Song Ke bite the quilt and tremble, sweating all over his body, and the sheets were so wet that he could wring out water. The bed four-piece set had to be replaced quietly the next morning.

This kind of ignorance, sometimes Chen Nian can't help but see it.The younger sister's eyes were sharp, and Song Ke looked at it with a smile, which made Song Ke very embarrassed.At night, he asked Chen Jue not to do that, but Chen Jue didn't listen, and he still treated him like that, and he was powerless to resist.

But apart from Chen Nian, Cheng Yi'an didn't find anything wrong with Song Ke.

The day before the Great Heat solar term, Chen Jue was on a business trip, and only the two of them had dinner together at noon.After looking across from him 1 times, Cheng Yi'an couldn't bear it anymore and knocked on Song Ke's plate: "What are you thinking? Don't hurry to eat when the food is cold, just sit here and count the meters."

After recovering, Song Ke said: "I was thinking about this plan for Rong Xin. Although I went through it this morning, I still feel uneasy."

Because Fang Shaoyang is very demanding, everyone in the industry knows it.

Cheng Yi'an said, "I thought you were thinking about Chen Jue. He has been away for a week, why hasn't he come back?"

Song Ke picked up a chopstick of vegetables, chewed them carefully and swallowed them before saying, "I'm delayed by something at the moment, I'll be back the day after tomorrow."

"How do you know, he told you?"

"Ah."

"This kid..." Cheng Yi'an said in a tone full of envy and jealousy, "It's okay to be inseparable from you all day long, Meng Meng can't be anxious, and this kind of thing is treated differently. Unfortunately, I am still worried that he will be tied up to the mountains to cut trees. gone."

Chen Jue's business trip was in a remote place. The customer was installing electric meters at home. He had to run to the top of the mountain every night to call Song Ke, and the connection would be disconnected while talking.

Last night, at ten o'clock at night, Chen Jue went to a high place to make a video call with him. It was pitch black everywhere, but the moon behind him was extraordinarily large and very close, and the stars were like silver diamonds piled up in piles. Crowded and nailed to the velvet night sky.

Chen Jue asked him: "What are you doing?"

He was still working overtime, and while typing, he said, "Respond to the email."

Chen Jue didn't speak any more.

The other end of the phone is completely silent, only a little breeze and birdsong faintly blowing past my ears.After finally answering an important email, Song Ke turned her head to look at the screen, and found that Chen Jue had sat down, sitting on the slope, holding a thin branch in her hand, staring at herself intently.

Song Ke suddenly felt sorry for ignoring him.

"Sorry, let you wait for me..." So he closed the computer cover and asked him, "What about you, what are you doing?"

Chen Jue smiled: "I'm doing something you didn't do."

Like a tongue twister.

Song Ke asked, "What's the matter?"

Chen Jue said, "I miss you."

Song Ke opened her mouth, trying to explain something, but the signal was cut off silently.

Should it be explained seriously?

He wasn't sure either.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want Chen Jue in his heart, it's just that he has gained enough sense of security, so he can focus on things other than feelings.

The next night, I set off to have dinner with Rong Xin's gang, and I didn't expect to run into an acquaintance.

When she entered the box and heard someone calling her name, Song Ke was still wondering who it was, but turned around and realized it was Qin Binkai.

During this period of time, Qin Binkai seemed to be tanned, his complexion was more seaside, and he had just had his hair cut, so he looked very inconspicuous sitting in the corner.He waved to Song Ke, and Song Ke squeezed through a crowd of unknown people: "When did you come to Jiang?"

"I've been here for almost a week, and I'm so busy with business every day that I don't have time to catch up with you. But if there is fate, we will meet sooner or later. Look, we will meet tonight?"

He spoke the same way as before, adult politeness and twists and turns mixed with a little truth.Song Ke smiled and didn't take it seriously: "According to what you said, all the people present tonight are predestined people, wouldn't that be too much?"

There are two round tables in a big bag, and there are no less than 30 people sitting in various places.

Many of the people present were meeting for the first time, and they had already drunk a lot after a round of self-introduction.Fortunately, Fang Shaoyang didn't persuade him to drink, and Qin Binkai skillfully helped him block some, which was a surprise to Song Ke.

After nine o'clock in the evening, he fell from the game, and finally heaved a sigh of relief when he walked to the road.Song Ke sincerely thanked: "It's really thanks to you tonight." Qin Binkai said: "It's a small thing, Rong Xin's group of people can still give me some face, and I can't help you if it's someone else."

In summer, Linjiang has dense trees, and the night wind is cool, so the two walked side by side on the street.

Qin Binkai asked him: "How are you and your Clivia?"

He carried his briefcase in silence, turned his head to see a street vendor selling snacks, and naturally changed the topic: "Have you ever eaten mung bean paste? I invite you, it's very refreshing."

I walked over and ordered two bowls. The thick mung bean soup was served with finely ground smoothies. It was very refreshing in my hand, and I felt more comfortable after eating it.Five yuan a bowl is a good deal, and it can bring back some childhood memories.

The two ate and walked, not noticing that there was a car following them all the time.Later, a lot of water droplets condensed on the outside of the plastic bowl. After eating, Song Ke wanted to wipe his hands with a paper towel. As soon as he opened the bag, the paper towel was already handed to him. "Let me hold the bag for you first."

He had no choice but to say thank you, and Qin Binkai went to throw it for him after wiping his hands. All the actions were done in one go, and there was no opportunity for him to refuse.

Later, they parted ways at the entrance of the hotel. Qin Binkai brought him some souvenirs and gave him a hug: "I'm about to change jobs. I don't think there will be many chances of coming to Jiangxi in the future. Take care."

He said, "You take care too."

Last time I had a hasty farewell, this time it was a hasty one again, and I was still a little sad when I got the taxi.So instead of going straight home, he made a detour to a nearby park.Even though I can no longer go in, it's a relief to take a walk.

In this way, it will be a little late to go back.

Downstairs of the rented apartment, there was a black SUV parked at the door, the front of the car was facing the corridor, and the lights were on inside the car.

At first he couldn't believe it, but when he got closer, he realized that it was really Chen Jue.Chen Jue laid the driver's seat flat, closed his eyes and lay on it to rest, holding the phone in his hand.

He froze for a moment, and quickly turned out his mobile phone, but there was no missed call or new message on it.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the window, Chen Jue suddenly woke up, opened his eyes, and his first reaction was to lower his head and turn on his phone.

For some reason, his heart felt empty and sore.

After knocking on the car window twice, Chen Jue turned his head and saw him. He looked confused at first, but after a while he quickly sat up, restored the car seat to its original shape, and pushed the door open.

He asked, "Why didn't you call me when you came back early?"

Chen Jue wiped his face and woke up, took the bag and souvenirs in his hand: "It's fine anyway, there's no need to rush you."

Before closing the car door, I thought of something again. I opened the tightly packed coat on the passenger seat, and inside was a bowl of packed mung bean paste.

Chen Jue carefully put it into the bag of souvenirs, and then took him by the hand to go upstairs, and didn't say anything until he entered the house.

At first Song Ke thought he knew, and felt a little uneasy, but after a long time, Chen Jue still didn't ask any questions, and just lost his mind slightly while watching him eat mung bean paste.

"Has the ice melted?" Chen Jue asked him.

He lowered his head and said "hmm".

"I'll take a sip."

After Chen Jue finished speaking, he tasted it with the spoon in his hand, and didn't say it was delicious or bad.

He didn't want to turn on the air conditioner when he was sleeping at night, because it was easy to catch a cold if it was turned on all night.Chen Jue opened the window, moved the floor fan in the living room to the stool, and let him sleep outside.

It was still a bit cold in the middle of the night. As soon as he shrank his shoulders, Chen Jue covered him with a blanket.
