forgotten island

During this period of time, Zhang Chengyi hadn't come, it was rare for Nan Qing not to think of him.Ever since I went to see Ji Jing's band that day, Nan Qing ran there every three days, and then simply put his cello there, so that he could not only write music openly, but also give advice to each other. Visible to the naked eye is a lot lively.

On Saturday morning, Nanqing went out and called Ji Jing on the way to take a taxi.

The phone rang a few times and was picked up.

Ji Jing: "Hello?"

Ji Jing's place was a bit noisy, if I guessed correctly, he should have been practicing early in the morning.

"Nan Qing, wait a minute, my side is a bit noisy." After a few seconds, the voice gradually faded away and gradually became quiet.

"What's the matter?" Ji Jing's voice came clearly from the receiver.

"I won't be here today."

"Come over at night?"

"I probably won't come here either. I don't know how long I'll be busy, but Mo Shen may come over. It seems that something was left somewhere yesterday."

"Is it the coat? I put it away for him."

"It should be. Let's not talk, my car is here, see you later." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Zhang Chengyi has been staying in other places recently, but he only eats or sleeps, and does nothing else.It has been almost half a month since he went home, and Nan Qing never contacted him for the first time, and he didn't even like the circle of friends he deliberately posted.

This is abnormal for both Nan Qing and Zhang Chengyi.

This made Zhang Chengyi very uncomfortable, as if something that was originally a step-by-step weight that should be held in the palm of his hand suddenly broke away, disappeared, lost his clue, and suddenly entered an unknown field at a loss.

Because of this unknown, Zhang Chengyi returned home early, and before returning home, he sent a text message to Nan Qing, saying that he would go home for dinner, but Nan Qing did not reply until Zhang Chengyi opened the door.

Looking at the house without lights in front of him, Zhang Chengyi felt a chill in his heart, and it was a deserted scene again, which overlapped with the scene of that night.

Zhang Chengyi turned on the light, and dialed Nan Qing's phone with a dark face, but a cold mechanical voice came from the receiver - no one answered.Inexplicable irritability swept over him, and the kind of irritability that could not be pinched instantly occupied his brain. Zhang Chengyi stood at the door for a while, calming down the storm in his heart, and then took off his shoes and walked in.

Originally there were a few flowers planted in various places in the house, but the garden had long been ruined by Zhang Chengyi, who was irrational before. As a result, the indifference that could have been weakened became extremely profound and difficult to dissipate now, together with the opened Even the lights can't drive away the haze in the house.

Zhang Chengyi seemed to have suddenly broken into a dilapidated house, except for the howling wind, leaving him only the black shadow cast by the light.Without thinking much, he took out his mobile phone and called up the monitoring for the past few days.

He lazily pulled his eyelids, his dark pupils looked at the screen of the phone without ups and downs through the small slits, the lines of his face stretched into a stiff line, obviously a face with no expression, but It makes people feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

Before Nan Qing got home, he saw the lights on in the house, his heart sank a little, and he involuntarily grabbed the bag in his hand.He didn't stay outside the house too much, even though he was prepared, the moment he opened the door and saw Zhang Chengyi standing indifferently at the door, he still couldn't control himself and panicked.

This scene is too familiar. Last time, Nanqing lost his favorite garden. What about this time?

"I'm back." It was Zhang Chengyi who spoke first, with a flat tone, as if he was asking Nan Qing if he had dinner tonight.

Nan Qinggan stood at the entrance, his eyes were unfocused, and he nodded numbly.

"Where did you go?" Zhang Chengyi asked.

Nan Qing subconsciously clenched the hand holding the bag tightly.

Zhang Chengyi took a step forward and asked calmly: "Have you had fun with Ji Jing?" He looked at Nan Qing's pretty face, and felt cold in his heart. For the first time, he felt that this face was unusually obtrusive .

He never expected that Nan Qing would hook up with Ji Jing just by chance.In the surveillance, Nanqing went out on a regular basis almost every day, and came back very late. At first he didn't think so far, thinking that Nanqing was just going out for a stroll, which was fine, until Ji Jing appeared on the screen. They seemed to be familiar with each other, hooking shoulders Yes, even with the slightly blurred picture quality, Zhang Chengyi still saw the slightly raised corners of Nan Qing's mouth. It was a smile from the heart, the smile that Zhang Chengyi forbade Nan Qing to show in front of him.

To be honest, Zhang Chengyi was in a bad mood at that time, not because he cared too much, but because he felt that the things he raised were disobedient.

Nan Qing didn't want to reveal in advance what he was going to give Zhang Chengyi, he said, "I just went out for a stroll today."

"What about before that? What about the few days before I went out." Zhang Chengyi pressed on step by step, and he didn't stop until Nan Qing retreated to the door.

"Before, I just went out to play with my friends." Nan Qing said.

Zhang Chengyi laughed mockingly: "Friends? You become friends after just meeting? Nanqing, you are really good at hooking up people." After speaking, he pinched his chin mercilessly and lifted it up, "You should be glad that you have such a picture face, you can climb onto my bed without any effort, and you don't need to do anything to see Ji Jing right."

Looking at Nan Qing's slightly reddened eyes, Zhang Chengyi paused for a moment.Because of this forced raising of the head, Nan Qing's face was completely exposed in front of Zhang Chengyi's eyes, so that all the emotions in Nan Qing's eyes were displayed in Zhang Chengyi's pupils, but such Nan Qing did not get any pity from him, and even more so The ugly words came out of his mouth without any grudges: "You know that Ji Jing is gay, right? You go out with a gay every day, what do you want to do, Nan Qing, have you forgotten, forgotten who you are, If you get dirty, you can get out of my sight...you can..."

Maybe it's because I've been with Ji Jing and his group of flamboyant people for a long time. Listening to Zhang Chengyi's words without a little warmth, the heart that always hurts seems to be nothing more than that. Although it doesn't hurt, it's still very sad. Nan Qing It was the first time I interrupted Zhang Chengyi's words, and it was also the first time I expressed my dissatisfaction: "Do you have to make your words so ugly?"

Zhang Chengyi was stunned, looking at him in disbelief, the strength in his hands naturally relaxed, Nan Qing turned his head away, and his chin slowly slipped away from Zhang Chengyi's fingers.

"I didn't know that Ji Jing was gay, he was just my friend." Nan Qing explained, "Don't worry, I'm very clean, very clean, and I didn't let any man except you gave me to someone else at the reception touched me intimately."

Nan Qing was so distressed that it started from this second. He didn't want to surprise Zhang Chengyi any more. He suddenly didn't understand that he was busy composing music and looking for shops secretly. insulting language?

Nan Qing's series of actions successfully angered Zhang Chengyi. He didn't want to mention Nan Qing playing the piano, he just wanted Nan Qing's attitude of bowing his head, but this time he made a mistake, he stepped back a few steps and talked with Nan Qing. Qing kept a friendly but unfamiliar distance: "Did I tell you not to play the piano, what did you do when you went out holding the piano, I don't need to say more."

Nan Qing's entire face turned pale.

"You can get lost." Zhang Chengyi said, he lowered his head to see Nan Qing's reaction.Sure enough, a frightened look immediately appeared on that pale face.

After Zhang Chengyi finished speaking, Nan Qing's ears rang for a few seconds, and he seemed to be unable to hear anything, only the sharp sound kept hitting the eardrum.

You are dismissed.

You can go now.

roll.

Did Zhang Chengyi mean to cut off?

All the dignity, all Nan Qing's pretentious rebuttal suddenly turned into dust, and Nan Qing's eyes suddenly turned red. He stretched out his fingers and stepped forward, trying to pinch Zhang Chengyi's sleeve, but was caught He ducks.

"I'm sorry, I, I didn't do it on purpose, I'm just a little wronged." Nan Qing's lips trembled violently, his outstretched fingers seemed to have forgotten to retract, and they wobbled in mid-air, white and transparent.

"I go out every day to prepare birthday presents for you. I know you don't like me playing the cello. I didn't mean it because, because." Nan Qing was completely flustered. He finally withdrew his hand and let it go tremblingly. Putting it into the bag, my hands seemed to be out of control, and I couldn’t take out the contents of the bag, “I’m writing a song for you, and I want to engrave the song on a pocket watch, so it’s so late today”

Zhang Chengyi just watched the whole time.

It took several minutes for Nan Qing to take out the gift. It was a black plush box, Nan Qing hid her little thoughts. The box looked very much like a wedding ring, but it was a little bigger than the wedding ring box.Nan Qing opened the box, and there was a copper-colored pocket watch lying inside. Many musical notes were engraved on the surface of the pocket watch, crooked.

"I've carved it for a long time, and it's not very good-looking." Nan Qing carefully held the box, as humble as a dog crawling under his feet.

Zhang Chengyi followed his pocket watch and saw many wounds on Nan Qing's fingers. He was slightly taken aback. Until now, Zhang Chengyi's calm face had very subtle cracks. It was the first time he felt soreness so clearly. , the throat seemed to be contained.

Neither of them moved, maintaining an unequal posture.

Time slipped away for a few seconds, and the cicadas outside the window began to sing, which sounded a bit sad.Zhang Chengyi couldn't stand Nan Qing like this, so he finally lifted his foot, and as he approached, he hugged Nan Qing into his arms, and his tone became softer: "Don't make me angry next time. You know ?”

Nan Qing leaned against his chest in a daze, those eyes that had finally brightened up, dimmed a little bit, and became a little lax, he nodded obediently, still holding the Zhang Chengyi unretractable pocket watch.

Nan Qing thought with some doubts.

Why is this hug not warm at all?
