Chapter 81: Sweet
Qin Zhou habitually reached out and rubbed Jiang Lin's head.
During those three years, he had countless opportunities to come to Nancheng to see Jiang Lin, or to make a phone call to report safety.
But he never did.
He completely lost his old identity and started a new life—
But ignore the harm this incident has caused to others.
He had thought about whether to make a phone call with Jiang Lin, but he felt that it would be better to just disconnect it completely.
At that time, he thought that Jiang Lin had so many friends by his side, and he was not lacking alone, so he should soon be forgotten.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Qin Zhou apologized over and over again.
Jiang Lin didn't speak, just hugged Qin Zhou tightly.
Jiang Lin hugged for a while, and after letting go of his hand, he said, "Brother Zhou, you have to get well soon."
"Well." Qin Zhou nodded in response.
"Eat three meals on time, drink more water, and use less cellphones..." Jiang Lin thought uneasy like a big parent.
Qin Zhou obediently lay on the hospital bed, and Jiang Lin also helped to cover the quilt.
Qin Zhou took a nap first.
When he woke up again, Jiang Lin was still in the ward.
Qin Zhou moved, and Jiang Lin, who was beside him, also noticed the movement and quickly asked, "Is it better?"
"Well." Qin Zhou nodded and said, "It's time to leave the hospital."
Qin Zhou propped himself up and wanted to get out of bed.
However, Jiang Lin continued to cover Qin Zhou with the quilt and said, "Let's rest first."
"I still need to work." Qin Zhou rubbed his eyebrows, "I took a few days off, and I'm going back to the company today."
Jiang Lin: "It's alright, I told Yuan Lie to take a month off."
Qin Zhou wanted to say something, but this time Jiang Lin's attitude was very firm.
"Brother Zhou, rest." Jiang Lin forcibly stuffed the person into the quilt.
Qin Zhou lay down for a while, and then asked, "Where's my phone?"
Jiang Lin handed over the phone.
Qin Zhou unlocked it and flipped through the messages on his phone.
After seeing it, Jiang Lin said, "Brother Zhou, don't play with your phone if you are sick."
"I'll chat with you." Jiang Lin leaned over and lay down on the bed, beside Qin Zhou.
The bed is not very big, but it is enough for two people.
Qin Zhou also moved to the side to make way for Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin asked curiously, "Brother Zhou, what are you going to do next?"
Qin Zhou thought about it and said, "Continue acting."
"Brother Zhou, what do you want to play? I can invest."
"let it go."
"Do you want to go out and play these days?" Jiang Lin took out his mobile phone and sent Qin Zhou a few links. "There are several exhibitions and an auction this month, which is quite lively."
Qin Zhou also received the link sent by Jiang Lin, clicked on one of them, and found that it was an introduction page for a jewelry auction.
So Qin Zhou asked, "Is this the auction you told Su Su last time?"
Jiang Lin glanced at it and nodded, "Yes."
Qin Zhou was not interested in jewelry and the like, but because Su Tang mentioned diamonds, he turned the page and took a few more glances.
There are information introductions showing some of the auction items on the auction page. Qin Zhou flipped through it and saw the introduction information of a blue diamond, eternal love.
Qin Zhou looked at it for a while, and felt a little dizzy, so he said, "I have a headache, I will sleep for a while."
"Okay!" Jiang Lin got out of bed quickly and helped Qin Zhou cover the quilt.
Qin Zhou put the phone beside the pillow, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
Jiang Lin stopped disturbing and left the ward.
He Yang was still outside, sitting alone on the rest chair outside the ward.
Jiang Lin glanced at the other party and said, "He fell asleep."
He Yang nodded.
After Jiang Lin left, He Yang entered the ward.
On the bed, the young man fell asleep peacefully.
When He Yang walked over, he saw the mobile phone placed beside the pillow.
The phone screen is on.
On the screen, is an auction introduction page for a blue diamond.
Qin Zhou stayed in the hospital for a few days.
After leaving the hospital, Qin Zhou and He Yang went to the tour guide's hometown together.
My hometown is in a dilapidated and backward rural village in the north, and most of the villages are old people.
Qin Zhou chose the cemetery and buried the urns of his grandmother and tour guide in it.
When he came out of the cemetery, Qin Zhou's eyes were still a little red.
Qin Zhou put on sunglasses to cover his eyes and returned to Nancheng.
But after the two got off the plane, He Yang did not take Qin Zhou back to the apartment, but took Qin Zhou back to the old house.
The car drove towards the old house and parked outside the yard.
In the yard of the old house, Qiqi is still basking in the sun on the lawn.
After hearing the sound of the car, Kiki's ears moved, then raised his head and looked over.
Outside, is a familiar black car.
Qiqi got up from the grass, got up and walked towards the car habitually, squatting beside the car.
The door opened and the man got out.
Kiki continued to squat beside the car and glanced into the car with his head out.
After seeing the other owner in the car, Kiki got into the car with some excitement and threw himself into the man's arms.
Before Qin Zhou could react, he saw a fluffy touch in his arms.
"Ow!" Qiqi raised his head and leaned against Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou rubbed Qiqi's head and took Qiqi out of the car.
The old housekeeper stood at the gate of the yard, saw Qin Zhou coming back, nodded with a smile, and did not ask.
Qiqi followed Qin Zhou, ran to the lawn not far away, picked up the Frisbee toy on the ground, and then moved in front of Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou took the Frisbee and brought Qiqi to the open space next to him.
He Yang had already entered the villa, standing by the window, looking at the figure on the lawn outside.
The sun is out and the weather is fine.
With a smile on his face, the young man played games with Qiqi on the grass.
Everything seems to be the same as before.
Qin Zhou played with Qiqi outside for a while, and then went back to the house first.
Qin Zhou came to the room on the second floor and found that the room was still furnished three years ago.
Qiqi also followed, squatting on the carpet, staring at Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou rubbed Qiqi's head and leaned against the railing of the terrace, blowing the wind.
He Yang came over and hugged Qin Zhou from behind.
Qin Zhou looked at the garden outside and suddenly said, "He Yang, do we have to continue?"
"Ok?"
"Grandma's gone." Qin Zhou lowered his head slightly and said softly, "I don't need to take care of you anymore."
He Yang frowned and said in a low voice, "It hasn't been three months yet."
He Yang leaned over and kissed the young man's neck with his lips.
Qin Zhou was itchy from being kissed, and turned his head uncomfortably, "Don't kiss."
He Yang didn't stop.
And because he was very familiar with the young man's body, He Yang clearly remembered every sensitive point on the other party's body.
Neck, collarbone, waist...
He Yang's hand had already reached out from the hem of his clothes.
"He Yang." However, Qin Zhou still pushed the man in front of him, panting slightly, "Qiqi is still there."
He Yang's movements paused slightly, then lowered his head and saw a big dog beside his leg.
The big black-and-white-haired dog was squatting on the ground, looking innocently at the two masters.
He Yang frowned and said to Qiqi, "Go outside and play."
The big dog shook its tail, but did not move, just looked at Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou sorted out his clothes, touched Qiqi's face, and said, "Go outside and play."
When Qiqi heard this, he slowly got up and walked outside.
He Yang also lowered his head, put his palm on the young man's waist, and asked, "Continue?"
"No." Qin Zhou shook his head, went back to the bedroom, and played with his mobile phone on the sofa.
Until evening, Qin Zhou went downstairs and came to the restaurant.
But when Qin Zhou passed by, he saw Father He on the first floor.
Father He was sitting in a wheelchair with a chessboard in front of him. He played chess alone and entertained himself.
After hearing the movement, Father He looked over.
Father He stared at Qin Zhou for a long time, as if he was remembering something.
Qin Zhou also walked over and shouted, "Uncle."
Father He said to Qin Zhou, "I seem to remember you..."
"Well." Qin Zhou replied with a smile, sat opposite Father He, and said, "Does uncle want to play chess?"
Father He nodded and put the black and white chess pieces back in their original positions.
Qin Zhou played chess with Father He, and occasionally let Father He take a few wrong steps on purpose.
Just when the two of them were halfway through their chess game, Father He suddenly raised his head and said, "I remember you, you played chess with me before."
Qin Zhou looked up, still a little surprised.
In the past, every time he came to the old house, Father He stayed upstairs and would not come down, and they seldom communicated, only occasionally playing chess.
Father He asked again, "Are you a piano teacher?"
"Yes." Qin Zhou nodded.
When he came to the old house before, he would introduce himself to his uncle every time.
However, my uncle's memory is not very good, and he can't remember his name, so he only remembers a "piano teacher".
"Are you back?" Father He laughed, "He Yang mentioned you to me last time..."
Father He didn't remember the car accident, he only remembered that He Yang seemed to have told him that he was engaged to the piano teacher.
So Father He looked at Qin Zhou's left hand and asked, "Where's the ring? Why didn't you wear the engagement ring?"
Qin Zhou was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at his empty left hand, but did not speak.
At this time, He Yang also came over.
He Yang came to Qin Zhou's side, leaned over slightly and hugged Qin Zhou's shoulder, and said to the middle-aged man, "The ring is inconvenient, so I took it off."
"Is that so..." Father He nodded and said to Qin Zhou, "It's your turn."
Qin Zhou looked at the chessboard and was thinking about where to go next, when he saw that He Yang had already helped him drop the pieces.
When Father He saw it, he shook his head with a smile and said, "You are too old to play chess, you young people can't play..."
He Yang also said, "I'll take him to dinner first."
After speaking, He Yang pulled Qin Zhou away.
After arriving at the restaurant, Qin Zhou said to He Yang: "I deliberately placed it over there, how did you win directly?"
Qin Zhou frowned, a little dissatisfied.
He originally planned to lose to Father He on purpose, but as soon as He Yang came, he helped him play the chess piece and directly cut off Father He's way.
He Yang said casually, "Don't let him."
Dinner is ready on the table.
Qin Zhou sat on his seat and ate slowly.
After dinner, Qin Zhou was taken to the movie room by He Yang.
Qin Zhou picked a movie at random, then leaned on the sofa and looked at the screen.
The movie is a funny theme. The male protagonist and the grandmother depend on each other for life, and then some daily stories happen.
The interaction between the male protagonist and grandma was very warm. Qin Zhou looked at it and suddenly thought of grandma.
Obviously, the movie is full of funny dialogues and plots, but Qin Zhou is more and more sad.
"He Yang." Qin Zhou couldn't help raising his head and looked at the person beside him.
"Huh?" He Yang leaned over slightly.
"I miss grandma." Qin Zhou couldn't control his emotions, his eyes were slightly red.
He was an orphan and grew up in an orphanage.
His grandmother is his only family.
Grandma is usually reluctant to eat more, but remembers to buy **** candy for him.
Grandma won't eat anything delicious when she encounters it. She waits for him to come back every time before giving it to him.
Even if this warm affection was stolen from him, he still fell into it.
Qin Zhou leaned on He Yang's shoulder and did not speak.
Tears wet a small piece of fabric on his clothes, He Yang hugged the young man and whispered, "It's alright."
He Yang leaned over, held the young man's face in one hand, and kissed him at the corner of his eye.
He Yang is not very good at saying those comforting words.
Just clumsy, kissing the eyes over and over again.
The next morning, Qin Zhou woke up very early.
And because he cried the night before, Qin Zhou's eyes were still a little swollen.
The sun was still shining outside. Qin Zhou went downstairs to the yard and basked in the sun with Qiqi.
Qin Zhou sat on the lawn and threw the Frisbee toy out, and then Qiqi took the Frisbee back and asked Qin Zhou to throw it again.
Not long after, the housekeeper found Qin Zhou and handed a basket of strawberries to Qin Zhou.
"It's the strawberries that were just delivered, fresh."
Qin Zhou took it.
The strawberries were stained with water droplets, which should have just been washed.
Qin Zhou held a small basket and ate a strawberry.
The strawberries are plump and sweet.
Qiqi came back with the Frisbee in his mouth and saw Qin Zhou eating strawberries again, so he stuck his head out curiously and glanced at it.
But Kiki was not interested in strawberries, so he lay on the grass and basked in the sun.
While eating strawberries, Qin Zhou took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time.
A news automatically pops up on the phone—
[Rare blue diamonds sell for sky-high prices! Mystery buyer successfully bids by phone! 】
Qin Zhou slid past the news and clicked on Weibo to read it.
Suddenly, Qin Zhou seemed to notice something, and when he turned his head and looked behind him, he saw He Yang on the balcony on the first floor.
He Yang was leaning against the railing and was looking at him all the time.
Qin Zhou got up, walked over with a small basket, and asked, "Do you want to eat strawberries?"
He Yang looked at the strawberries in the basket and suddenly asked, "Is it sweet?"
Qin Zhou ate another strawberry and nodded, "Sweet."
After that, Qin Zhou took the strawberry and handed it over.
He Yang was on the balcony, while Qin Zhou was in the garden outside.
Qin Zhou stretched out his hand and handed the strawberry to the man across the railing.
He Yang looked at the strawberry in the young man's hand and did not take it.
He Yang's hand was still resting on the railing, with a little force on his hand, his body slightly protruded out of the railing, and the other hand also reached out and put it on the back of the young man's head.
Then, He Yang leaned over and kissed him.
He Yang stretched out the tip of his tongue and lightly licked it on his lips.
"Well, sweet."
very sweet.
