Trajectory 2: entangled curves

Zhuge Qinuo was driving on his way home. He reviewed his performance and thought about the loving wife of Ye Mingyuan, whom he had only heard of in legends but never seen.

She calculated the age of the teacher's wife.

Zhuge Qinuo estimated Ye Mingyuan's age when he was in high school. When she was in the first year of high school, it was exactly his tenth year of work. Considering that he had been in college for four years, the age difference between them should be fourteen years. Ye Mingyuan mentioned that she was a few years younger than him. A few years younger means that they met in the same school. Let's assume that they were a freshman and a senior, then the age difference between her and his wife was about ten years.

After her divorce and adjustment, Zhuge Qinuo now looks much younger than her peers. She is thirty-three, but as long as she dresses a little younger, it is absolutely no problem to tell others that she is only twenty-four or twenty-five. Ye Mingyuan's wife also feels the same way. She is at least in her early forties, but she looks like she is in her thirties.

However, without makeup, it was late, and perhaps because of the quarrel with Ye Mingyuan, she looked a little tired and haggard.

In terms of appearance, she is not as beautiful as a fairy, but her temperament is definitely extraordinary. Zhuge Qinuo can imagine how many admirers she had more than 20 years ago, and how talented and beautiful she must have been when she married Ye Mingyuan. When he recalled the little feelings he had for Ye Mingyuan in high school, he thought about how loving they must have been. That little fantasy, that little secret love, that little bit of beauty in his heart, became so ridiculous at this moment.

Ye Mingyuan and the other man watched Zhuge Qinuo leave.

"Going home?" Ye Mingyuan's wife asked.

"Ha!" Ye Mingyuan's reaction.

Wife: “We haven’t finished talking yet.”

Ye Mingyuan: "Is there any need to say it? Does it matter what I say? Will there be any changes?"

Wife: "Mingyuan, what happened between us has nothing to do with others."

Ye Mingyuan: "I didn't involve him either, so you don't need to be nervous."

Wife: “I’m not talking about him.”

Ye Mingyuan was stunned for a while, then said, "Don't worry, our business is our business, I know it won't involve others. I'll go back to the dormitory to sleep. You should go home and rest early too. Good night."

The wife looked at Ye Mingyuan helplessly. She understood that although he said he knew it, some things had changed, and he was not aware of this change.

Especially after meeting Zhuge Qinuo, the woman's originally anxious heart calmed down. Everything will eventually have a result. Get in the car and go home.

People in the world are always in a hurry. No one would have thought that the peaceful days would become no longer peaceful because of a virus.

2019, April 12.

Zhuge Qinuo handled a lot of work during the day as usual, and accompanied the children to eat and sleep at night. The night came so casually, and the day passed in a hurry. While she was accompanying the children to sleep, she also fell asleep.

She woke up and went back to bed, closing her eyes and thinking about some unfinished work. She was struggling whether to persevere and finish it tonight. After struggling for a while, she really didn't want to work hard anymore. She suddenly felt lazy and took out her phone.

There were many missed calls, most of which were from Zhuge Nan. Because it was too late, she only replied to a WeChat message, asking what was wrong. Because if the matter was important, Zhuge Nan would definitely not be able to sleep and would reply to her immediately, so she would reply first. If it was not that important, it was already so late and it was impossible to deal with it tonight, so she would just wait until tomorrow.

Some hospitals in Wuhan have discovered multiple cases of pneumonia of unknown cause with a history of exposure to the South China Seafood Market.

As for her WeChat, it has exploded. It's not that many people care about her, but that the people who really care about her have appeared.

"Are you there?" Mi Bei, who I haven't contacted for more than a year.

"The situation this time is quite serious. You should pay more attention. When you go out, buy some extra things and leave them at home. Try to go out as little as possible." Deng Qing, who I haven't contacted for almost two months.

"Look, pack up your things and bring Chengcheng and Xinxin back to live with you." Zhuge Nan, who hadn't contacted me for a week.

Zhuge Qinuo couldn't help but wonder what was going on with these three men. How did they have such a tacit understanding that they appeared on the same day?

She replied in turn.

"exist!"

"What's going on?"

"Dad, that's not necessary!"

While waiting for a reply, she clicked on Weibo to kill time. Even more explosive than her WeChat was the red-marked news on Weibo. A new type of pneumonia. Obviously, this was the reason that prompted Mi Bei, Deng Qing and Zhuge Nan to send her WeChat messages tonight.

"Wait for me. A little later." Mi Bei replied first.

Zhuge Qinuo didn't know how to wait for him to say it was later. Should he wait? After waiting, what should he say?

"Ding!" Another WeChat message.

Deng Qing: "You finally responded. Did you see it?"

Zhuge Qinuo: “I see.”

Deng Qing: "Aren't you afraid?"

Zhuge Qinuo: "What are you afraid of?"

Deng Qing: "Don't be so careless. I have inside information. The hospital has been blocked. The situation is more serious than we thought. You have to pay attention."

Zhuge Qinuo: "How serious is it? Tell me the inside information."

Deng Qing: "Is this something you can just say on WeChat? Just believe me."

Zhuge Qinuo: "I know, I know! You guys are sending WeChat messages together. Have you been with Mibei recently?"

Deng Qing: "No. I have finished talking to you here, and now I have to go and warn him. Do you remember what I said?"

Zhuge Qinuo: "I remember, I remember. Movie King, go and get busy."

Deng Qing: "What are you busy with? What's your attitude? Did you remember what I said?"

Zhuge Qinuo: "Remember it!"

Deng Qing: "What do you remember?"

Zhuge Qinuo: "Be more careful."

Deng Qing: "I told you to go out less and buy more things."

Zhuge Qinuo: "I know, I know, Mr. Movie King, go out less and buy more things."

Deng Jing: "In short, you should be careful. You should be even more careful if you have children at home."

Zhuge Qinuo: "Okay! Don't worry."

Deng Qing: "Well, that's fine. I still have work to do."

Zhuge Qinuo: "Okay, you are busy! You should also pay attention to protection."

Deng Qing: "Stock up on some hot pot ingredients."

Zhuge Qinuo was amused: "As you wish."

After chatting with Deng Qing for a long time, the excitement ended, and suddenly, the world seemed to be quiet. She was still struggling with whether to work or not, but now she had no intention of working at all, and just leisurely browsed Weibo.

Naturally, she clicked on Deng Jing and checked his recent updates. Then she opened Mi Bei's Weibo. She hadn't opened his Weibo for a long time. It wasn't because she didn't want to, but because she didn't dare to. She was avoiding it.

But he showed up today, so she dared.
