Why are you in such a hurry

Cheng Lili was woken up by the sound of the TV. She opened her eyes slightly, and found that the sun had climbed into the window sill. She reached out and felt that the other half of the bed was empty. She was puzzled, looked sideways, and there was indeed no one beside her.

Last night, she and Gu Jianyin stayed on the rooftop until it was almost dawn before they came down. Almost as soon as they lay down on the bed, they were immediately unaware of their personnel. There was no dream during the whole process, and it was rare to sleep well.

Cheng Lili walked out of the bedroom rubbing her sleepy eyes, and saw a person sitting cross-legged on the sofa in the living room, holding the remote control and turning the channel continuously.

"You're only waking up now, I'm going to starve to death." Gu Jianyin looked up at her and complained dissatisfied.

Cheng Lili couldn't help wondering: "My mother should have made breakfast, hey, where's dad?"

Cheng's mother is used to going to the market to buy vegetables after breakfast, but Cheng's father usually reads the newspaper at home during this time.

"Your younger brother seems to be on winter vacation today. He went fishing with your father early in the morning." Gu Jianyin turned down the volume of the TV series, then threw the remote control aside, and spread it on the sofa in large letters, "Your mother The breakfast is cold, how can I eat it?"

Cheng Lili: "..." Can't you warm it up yourself?

"So hungry!" Gu Jianyin was already angry to get out of bed, but now that he was hungry, his expression became even more unkind.

"I know, I know." Cheng Lili resigned and went to the kitchen to heat breakfast for her Miss Gu.

Cheng Ma made egg pancakes today. She used to sprinkle some chopped green onion, but she didn't dare to add anything rashly because of the taste of the distinguished guests.

Cheng Lili does not have a microwave oven at home, so she can only use a pot to boil the water first, and then put the pancakes on it to steam.

In winter, the temperature is low and the water does not boil so fast. When Cheng Lili came out with a hot breakfast, Gu Jianyin was no longer in the living room.

"Your Majesty?" Cheng Lili looked around suspiciously.

The bedroom door was pushed open, and Gu Jianyin came out in a well-dressed manner, actually changed into out-of-the-way clothes.

"Chen Jing called. I have to attend an important reception in the evening." Gu Jianyin passed by her, explained briefly, and then walked towards the door.

Cheng Lili followed her to the porch in a daze, watching her squatting there to change her shoes.

"Think about what happened last night, don't worry." Gu Jianyin stood up, put his arms around her waist, and kissed her forehead, "By the way, give me some money to take a taxi, I've run out of cash Yes, I only have the card on me."

Cheng Lili whipped out a coin from her pajamas pocket as if by magic, and handed it to Ms. Gu who was in need of relief: "There is a special bus to the airport at the bus stop downstairs, one yuan per person per seat."

"..." Gu Jianyin grabbed the coin and shook her head, "You cheapskate!" Then he turned and went out.

Cheng Lili stood stupidly in the porch for a while, and she couldn't deny that she was full of reluctance. If Gu Jianyin asked her to go back together just now, she might have agreed immediately.

After closing the door, Cheng Lili listlessly walked to wash up, then sat at the dining table to eat pancakes, the TV was not turned off, and a costume drama was playing, the male lead fell down from poisoning, bleeding from his orifices, the female lead grabbed his skirt and shook desperately, Shouting: "Don't die, don't die, don't die."

Then the hero dies.

Cheng Lili: "..."

Breakfast was for two people, and Cheng Lili couldn't finish it. On the way to bring the remaining pancakes back to the kitchen, she suddenly remembered that Gu Jianyin didn't eat much at all last night.

So, she was actually woken up by starvation in the morning...?

Cheng Lili's heart ached when she thought that Gu Jianyin was going to catch the plane hungry.

But after thinking about it, there was plane food on the plane, and she would not die of starvation anyway, so she felt that her distress just now was a bit of a fuss.

Cheng Lili was alone at home with nothing to do, circled the living room a few times meaninglessly, and finally turned off the TV and ran back to the room to sleep.

Before Gu Jianyin left, she told her to think about it. She herself said she wanted to think about it last night, but she really separated from Gu Jianyin, and Cheng Lili didn't want to think too much. I can't lift my spirits, tossing and turning in bed just can't sleep.

I don't know how long she lay there, until the door opened outside, Cheng Lili slowly got up, and walked out of the living room with her messy hair.

It was Cheng Ma who came back from shopping.

"Are you still sleeping?" Cheng Ma came in with a vegetable basket and said while she was putting things away, "Today you are making dumplings at noon, does your friend like coriander?"

Cheng Lili scratched the back of her head and said, "She has something to do in the company, so I'll go back first."

Cheng Ma gave her a reproachful look: "You don't give it away either."

"The bus stop is just downstairs. It's convenient. You don't need to deliver it." Cheng Lili yawned, and followed Cheng Ma into the kitchen, ready to help wash the vegetables and chop pork.

Cheng's mother was sweating, she put down the food basket and went to the bathroom to wash her face. Cheng Lili picked out everything in the food basket, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you walking back? Why don't you take the bus?"

"Our home is not far from the market, so walking is considered exercise. And when I came back just now, I ran into a big traffic jam. Fortunately, I didn't take the bus, otherwise I don't know when I can come back."

"Is that an exaggeration?" Cheng Lili laughed, "But I really didn't expect traffic jams in a small city like ours."

Cheng Ma said: "What about small cities? There are many rich people who drive small cars. But I heard that the traffic jam this time was caused by a car accident at the intersection. The loading truck hit a small bus, and the passengers were killed and injured." It was so serious that several ambulances were dispatched, which is why the traffic jam took so long."

Cheng Lili's brain took a while to react, and she asked, "Minibus? Special minibus?" The special buses they have are all that kind of minibus.

Cheng Lili asked again: "When did the car accident happen?"

Cheng Ma said, "How do I know, there was already a traffic jam when I came back... Eh? Lili, where are you going?"

Without changing her clothes or combing her hair, Cheng Lili rushed out in slippers.

She suddenly remembered the scene in the TV series where the heroine was poisoned and fell down, and the heroine shouted like crazy, don't die, don't die, don't die.

Cheng Lili rushed downstairs in one breath, and the cold wind hit her face, but she didn't feel cold at all.

Sure enough, there was a traffic jam, and there was a long queue. Cheng Lili ran along the long queue, replaying Gu Jianyin's laughing and cursing before leaving in her mind over and over again.

You cheapskate!

Cheng Lili thought, if I had known, I would have been more generous, if I had known, I would have let her take a taxi...If I had known, I shouldn't have let her go back to my hometown with me!

All doubts, all regrets, all panic, all rushed to my heart.

The road ahead seems to have no end, and Cheng Lili doesn't know what will meet her at the end, she can't accept the bloody scene, life and death have been experienced once when she was a child, if God has the virtue of good life, he shouldn't take her away After her biological parents, she took away the person she really liked.

Cheng Lili was panting for breath, she was too tired to run anymore, but she still didn't stop, she dragged her steps in a daze and continued to walk forward.

"Oranges!"

Someone yelled loudly behind her, and Cheng Lili walked straight forward with a pale face as if she had never heard of it.

"Lili Orange, are you deaf?"

It wasn't until the person behind finally caught up, grabbed her arm and turned her around, that she woke up like a dream, and stared at the person who came, as if she didn't know her, and stared fixedly at her feet. More than ten seconds.

Gu Jianyin made fun of Cheng Lili as a lunatic at first, but she couldn't laugh anymore, and she suddenly understood what was going on.

"The minibuses here are old and dirty. I didn't get on them. I went to a nearby bank to withdraw money and wanted to take a taxi, but there seemed to be a car accident in front of me and it was blocked all the time."

"I saw you just now. I called you several times but there was no response, and I couldn't catch up with you. You used to run marathons at school, right?"

Cheng Lili was still breathing until now, her chest heaved sharply, her head was sweating profusely, and her face was as white as paper.Gu Jianyin was a little worried that she would faint suddenly.

"You...you scared me to death." Cheng Lili managed to hold back a sentence, then opened her arms and hugged Gu Jianyin fiercely.

"Fool, wouldn't you call to confirm first?" Gu Jianyin was hugged tightly by Cheng Lili, and he felt that the other party's strength was as strong as if he wanted to strangle his bones.

"I can't remember." Cheng Lili's voice was a little hoarse, "The time is too close... I thought... I, I was in a mess..."

Gu Jianyin endured the pain caused by that tight hug, gently patted Cheng Lili's back, and comforted her in a low voice: "It's okay, I'm fine."

People on the street looked at them strangely, but they ignored them.

The colder the weather, the stronger the wind blows, the more deeply they understand how much they long for each other's warmth and presence.
