Cappuccino Rhapsody

It was completely unexpected for Ling Jiangyuan to get a call from his grandfather. At that time, his aunt was asking him if he wanted to go back for the Chinese New Year, and Ling Jiangyuan was hesitating.

Because he didn't know if grandpa wanted to see him or not.

Ling Jiangyuan even planned to refuse, but his aunt suddenly said: "Dad was still reading a few days ago, I don't know how old you are now. In fact, you don't know. When you were about six years old, Dad and I came to S City , said to do something, but actually stayed in a small hotel not far from your home for several days."

Ling Jiangyuan stood there in a daze, a little unbelievable for a moment.

The aunt continued: "Jiang Rong is not at home all year round. You are so pitiful and lonely. I asked him several times if he wanted to go in and say hello, but he refused. Once there was a heavy rain, I I woke up in the middle of the night and didn’t see my dad, so I went to look for someone in the alley, and I actually saw him making a swing, and it was very well tied. But I didn’t see you playing after that.”

"It's true that he has a tough mouth, but he has the softest heart. He still blames your mother, but never blames you."

When the aunt's voice stopped, Ling Jiangyuan had already covered his mouth and wept uncontrollably.

As he grows up, he has almost never received unreserved love from anyone. Even Jiang Rong mixes demands and giving together. He looks forward to Jiang Rong's love, but is also afraid of Jiang Rong. Rong's love, so his feelings for Jiang Rong are contradictory and inseparable.

In his life, he almost thought that the best love he could get was Jiang Rong, until Qi Xu appeared later.

Ling Jiangyuan put all his needs and sustenance for emotions on Qi Xu.But now a person suddenly appeared, telling himself that in his loneliest years, an old man once appeared in his life.

"Jiang Yuan?" Auntie's worried voice sounded, "Are you okay?"

"I'm... all right."

"Well." Auntie sighed, and said, "I'll send you your grandfather's contact information, and it's up to you to decide whether to call or not."

Ling Jiangyuan hung up the phone and slid down the wall, weeping uncontrollably.

Qi Xu waited downstairs for a long time but did not wait for Ling Jiangyuan.He originally came back with Ling Jiangyuan to pick up the gift he was going to give Jiang Rong, but Ling Jiangyuan didn't know why he stayed there for so long and still didn't answer the phone.

After another moment, Qi Xu slammed the car door and quickly went upstairs.

He didn't know the password to the door of Ling Jiangyuan's house, but when Qi Xu helped Ling Jiangyuan move things last time, he put his fingerprints in on his own initiative.There was a "click" on the door, and all the curtains in the room were drawn, blocking out the dim dusk outside.Qi Xu frowned, and when he heard a very low sob, his heart quickly twisted into a ball.

Qi Xu rushed forward and hugged Ling Jiangyuan tightly into his arms, rubbed the back of his head with his hands, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ling Jiangyuan didn't speak, but hugged him even tighter, and the soft sobs were finally completely released, almost turning into howls.

Qi Xu didn't continue to ask until Ling Jiangyuan was almost crying, and even hiccupped accidentally.

Qi Xu wiped away the tears under his eyes with some amusement, and asked gently again: "What's the matter?"

"I don't know if I should call." Ling Jiangyuan said, "I..."

"Scared," he said.

Qi Xu poured himself a glass of warm water, and looked at Ling Jiangyuan who stood awkwardly in front of the window.

The other party pursed his lips, turned his head to look at him, Qi Xu gave him a thumbs up gesture, his eyes were firm as if he could give all strength.

Ling Jiangyuan took a deep breath, and finally pressed the dial.

Qi Xu couldn't hear what Ling Jiangyuan said in detail, the other party's voice was very small, so small and cautious.But Qi Xu could see that Ling Jiangyuan's expression gradually brought a smile, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Grandpa said to let me go back during the Chinese New Year!" Ling Jiangyuan who hung up the phone suddenly threw himself into Qi Xu's arms, he was like a child at the moment when he lost his restraint.

It was the first time Qi Xu saw him smiling so happily, that kind of happiness came from the bottom of his heart, every cell in his body was jumping for joy.

"That's great." Qi Xu hugged him and smiled, "Did grandpa tell me to go back with him?"

Ling Jiangyuan glared at him: "Stop joking with me, how dare I say this now."

Qi Xu's face was hurt: "Why does everyone in my family know that I am in a relationship, but I am an underground lover in your family?"

Ling Jiangyuan froze suddenly, he raised his head to look at Qi Xu, frowning: "People in your family know us..."

"En." Qi Xu nodded, "I only said that I was in a relationship, but I didn't say who it was with."

Ling Jiangyuan lowered his eyes, and seemed to let out a sigh of relief, Qi Xu looked at him incomprehensibly: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Ling Jiangyuan smiled, "You can accompany me to visit my mother tomorrow. The New Year gift I prepared for her has to be given to her, otherwise I won't have a chance if I am not in S City during the New Year."

"Okay." Qi Xu rubbed his head.

"Now I feel like..." Ling Jiangyuan hugged Qi Xu, exhaled suddenly, buried his head on the side of Qi Xu's neck, and said softly, "I'm so happy, I feel like I'm stepping on a cloud, even a little unreal."

"Then do you want me to do something that makes you feel real?" Qi Xu asked while pinching Ling Jiangyuan's chin.

"what?"

"What do you think?" Qi Xu kissed the corner of his mouth, "I can still make you more real."

Ling Jiangyuan understood instantly, and stepped on the other's instep: "Let's go!"

Qi Xu followed with a smile.

Before going to the nursing home, Qi Xu accompanied Ling Jiangyuan to the supermarket. The two bought couple cups, which were blue and red. Qi Xu wanted to take the blue one, so Ling Jiangyuan could only follow him.

Qi Xu also wanted to change a towel, so he asked Ling Jiangyuan if he wanted to get the couple's as well.

Ling Jiangyuan was made a little impatient by him: "Buy, buy, buy, buy everything." But when he turned around and saw Qi Xu's childish expression full of interest, he couldn't help laughing again.

What Ling Jiangyuan said was really not a joke, he had never been so happy, and he really felt unreal.

Seeing Qi Xu's smile, he couldn't help cherishing it even more.

Qi Xu said: "Then, you use the boys' ones, I'll use the girls' ones." The bottom right corner of the towel was embroidered with cartoon patterns, this time Qi Xu took a step back.

Ling Jiangyuan said helplessly: "I can do it."

"Yeah." Qi Xu nodded excitedly, "Then let's go to pay the bill."

It was almost noon when we arrived at the nursing home, but luckily the two of them packed their meals and came over.Ling Jiangyuan led Qi Xu as he walked in and said: "I'm going back to my hometown for two or three days. I'm afraid my mother will spend the Chinese New Year alone. If you are free, can you come and accompany her?"

"Of course." Qi Xu nodded, "My mother-in-law."

Ling Jiangyuan glared at him: "I'm not joking with you."

"Yes, yes, yes." Qi Xu sighed, and said, "It must be possible."

"Good." Ling Jiangyuan smiled and rubbed his head.

Ling Jiangyuan was a little nervous before opening the door.

Although after Qi Xu was injured that time, Jiang Rong completely forgot about this person and this matter, but it is inevitable that she will remember it again at some point, so every time Ling Jiangyuan brings Qi Xu over together, she will be very special. nervous.

Ling Jiangyuan's hand stopped on the door, and he didn't knock for a long time.

Finally, Qi Xu raised his hand to hold the back of Ling Jiangyuan's hand, stroked the back of his hand lightly with his fingertips as if comforting, and whispered: "It's okay. We can face it together no matter what."

Ling Jiangyuan took a deep breath, knocked on the door, and then opened the door.

There was no one in the house.

It looks a little deserted.

Ling Jiangyuan walked around the room without seeing Jiang Rong, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart. He glanced at Qi Xu, and suddenly panicked: "Why aren't you here?"

"What are you in a hurry for?" Qi Xu didn't take it seriously, and smiled, "Maybe I went out for a walk, I'll ask someone."

It didn't take long for Qi Xu to bring a nurse over. Ling Jiangyuan sat on the sofa with a pale face, and all thoughts flashed through his mind.

Seeing someone coming, he immediately stood up: "Hello, where is Ms. Jiang Rong now?"

"You are her son, I remember you," said the nurse, "isn't it?"

Ling Jiangyuan nodded quickly.

"Hey, don't you know?" The little nurse blinked strangely and said, "A man in his fifties came to pick up Ms. Jiang last night. We don't know exactly where he went."

Ling Jiangyuan's hand trembled, and he sat down abruptly.

The little nurse stood back a little nervously.

Qi Xu also realized that something was wrong, frowned slightly, and asked, "Who is that man?"

The little nurse swallowed: "It was the man who sent Ms. Jiang to our nursing home... It seems to be, surnamed Ling. He said he was Ms. Jiang's husband."

Ling Jiangyuan stood up suddenly and was about to go out.

Qi Xu grasped the other's wrist: "Where are you going?"

"... Leave me alone." Ling Jiangyuan said without looking back, "I'm going to find Ling Du."

Qi Xu hurriedly followed: "I'm with you."

"Don't follow me." Ling Jiangyuan suddenly turned around and glanced at Qi Xu.

This glance was extremely calm, so calm that Qi Xu's back felt cold for a while, he frowned slightly, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"You can't solve it." Ling Jiangyuan said, "You will only aggravate the conflict if you go. You..."

He closed his eyes and said, "You go home and wait for me, and I will be back."

Ling Jiangyuan shook off Qi Xu's hand.

Qi Xu clenched his hands into fists, and the feeling of emptiness caused the irritable cells in his whole body to become irritable. With a "bang", Qi Xu kicked onto the sofa, and couldn't help swearing in a low voice.

But he couldn't do anything, he could only helplessly watch Ling Jiangyuan's figure gradually disappear from sight.
