Run in the opposite direction

, Aren't you asking for trouble? "

Qiao Qianyan hummed.

Xing Chen put the honey water to his mouth: "Hey, drink some honey."

Qiao Qianyan grabbed the cup and drank it down, and then Xing Chen tightly wrapped her in the quilt: "Go to sleep, I'll go and wash the clothes, and I'll accompany you later."

Xing Chen opened the bedroom door, went to the living room and called his mother.

"Mom, how is Qiao Qianyan working with you today?"

Xing's mother: "Very good, Xiao Qiao's professional level is very high, much better than those who have worked in my unit for decades."

After listening, Xing Chen said: "After all, he is my junior, so he must be close. But, are you organizing a drinking party today?"

Xing's mother: "That's for sure. I can't have a meal with those bosses at the end of the audit. Oh yes, I took a few girls there today. The boss made a toast, and these girls hid behind Xiao Qiao and finished the meal." , Xiao Qiao drank the most."

Xing Chen thought it was no wonder, he rubbed his chin and said, "Mom, Qianyan is not in good health, you know that. Don't let him drink in the future."

Mother Xing said angrily, "Oh, I was busy and forgot today, but from tomorrow onwards I will take the backbone over there. With them here, there is no need for Xiao Qiao to drink."

Xing Chen: "Alright then, go to bed early."

Xing's mother told him as usual: "You also go to bed early, the guest house you live in has no heating, so you sit on the bed after washing to avoid freezing."

Xing Chen thought that if his mother knew that he came to rub Qiao Qianyan's bed every day, she might faint from anger.He smiled lowly, "Got it."

Xing Chen returned to the bed after washing his clothes, and hugged Qiao Qianyan into his arms.Qiao Qianyan frowned slightly, and muttered, "I'm sorry to spit you all over."

Xing Chen rubbed his temples: "Han Zhe... is that the man who went to grandma's funeral?"

Qiao Qianyan let out a "hmm".

Xing Chen then asked: "You...what's the relationship?"

Qiao Qianyan still closed his eyes: "We were brothers before, but it doesn't matter now."

The suspicion hanging in Xing Chen's heart was denied, and he immediately became at ease, slowly rubbing Qiao Qianyan's temples to help him fall asleep.

Qiao Qianyan got up early in the morning and looked out the window, said while getting dressed, "It looks like it will snow today."

Xing Chen: "When will you finish at night? I will go back to the city to meet a leader at three o'clock this afternoon."

Qiao Qianyan: "Don't you have the key to my house? Don't wait for me to open the door for you."

Xing Chen walked over to help him tidy up his collar, and said with a smile, "I don't want you to open the door. How many days have you not had dinner with me?"

Qiao Qianyan also laughed: "Then it's your mother's fault, you can reason with her."

Xing Chen gets up more than an hour earlier than when he lives in Shibali Township every morning. The weather is getting colder and colder, and it is usually not fully dawn when he goes out.

It was still early when Qiao Qianyan arrived at the unit, and after chatting with a few colleagues, he set off with Xing's mother.

Several people were sitting in a commercial vehicle. Mother Xing and Qiao Qianyan were chatting. She saw snowflakes suddenly falling outside the window and said to Qiao Qianyan: "I have to call Xing Chen at noon to ask if he is short of quilts. He lives The guest house has no heating and is in the sun, so it’s too much to suffer in winter.”

Qiao Qianyan and Mother Xing rarely talked about Xing Chen when they were together. Suddenly, when Mother Xing mentioned the quilt, he coughed guiltily: "Ahem... Xing Chen is so old, you still care about his small things. ?”

Mother Xing clapped her hands and said: "Is this still called management? Hey, I transferred him back from other places a few years ago, and I wanted to see him more, but it turned out that he didn't see anyone for ten days and a half months. He was still a bachelor in his thirties. One, I have to care about his trivial matters."

Qiao Qianyan smiled: "Then he will listen to you?"

Xing's mother rolled her eyes: "It's hell if he can listen. It's just that as a mother, you always have to talk a few words before you can rest assured."

A group of people went to work when they arrived at the company, and continued to work after a quick lunch at noon.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the company's front desk brought coffee and snacks to the financial office, and said to them: "Everyone, can you have something to eat and rest for a few minutes? You are tired after a long day of work."

Mother Xing asked everyone to stop working and rest for a while.

A colleague was surfing the Internet on his mobile phone while drinking coffee, and suddenly shouted: "Oh my God! There was a car accident at the intersection of the third ring road!"

Everyone pulled out their phones to watch the news.A truck collided with a private car at the intersection of the third ring road in Ancheng City, causing a series of collisions at the same time. The wounded at the scene have been sent to the nearest hospital. The number of casualties is unknown.

Qiao Qianyan's heart was beating wildly. The intersection of the third ring road was the road that Xing Chen must pass to return to the city, and the current time was exactly the time Xing Chen said he would come back in the morning.He went outside to call Xing Chen, but no one answered twice in a row, and then the phone was turned off when he called.

Qiao Qianyan felt as if he had fallen into a cellar of ice, and the hand holding the phone couldn't stop shaking, he gritted his back teeth to force himself to calm down, turned around and went into the room in front of Mother Xing and said, "Auntie, I'm in a hurry, can I ask for leave? "

Seeing his pale face, Mother Xing asked concerned: "What happened? Do you want me to help?"

Qiao Qianyan almost blurted out Xing Chen's name, but he is still not sure, so he can't make Xing's mother worry.He calmly said: "There was an accident, I have to go and have a look."

Xing's mother readily agreed: "Well, be careful."

Qiao Qianyan left the financial office and ran all the way, stopped a taxi downstairs in the company, got in and only said to the driver "Go to the Third Ring Hospital" and then kept making calls.

He seemed to be suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. Although the phone was turned off in the past, he still called every few minutes.

Qiao Qianyan's right hand holding the phone was covered in cold sweat, and his left hand was clenched into a fist. His voice was broken and hoarse: "Master, drive faster."

Seeing his appearance, the driver put aside his usual habit of chatting with passengers, and drove the taxi out of the air of a sports car.

Arriving at the entrance of the hospital, Qiao Qianyan took out a hundred-yuan note from his wallet and gave it to the master, then opened the car door and ran away.The driver shouted from behind: "Hey - you don't have any change!"

Qiao Qianyan rushed to the emergency room, rushed to the front desk and gasped, "Where are the injured in today's car accident arranged?"

The nurse at the front desk thought he was a family member, and quickly explained: "The minor injuries are all in the emergency department, and three seriously injured have been sent to the operating room."

Qiao Qianyan: "Do you know the names of the three seriously injured? What age? Are they male or female?"

The nurse shook her head: "Time is too tight, the hospital is still looking for the family members of the injured. Age... There are two men in their 50s and [-] years old, and a younger one."

Qiao Qianyan walked out from the front desk, all kinds of terrible guesses in his mind were about to drive him crazy, he grabbed a nurse to ask the direction of the operating room, and pushed the bustling crowd towards the operating room.

Qiao Qianyan could feel that the soles of his running feet were trembling. When he stepped on the ground, it was like stepping on a wire rope, and his whole body was shaky.I couldn't hear the surrounding sounds in my ears, only the sound of my own panting like a broken bellows.

Xing Chen came out of the emergency department. He scratched his arm. He had just finished disinfection and was about to leave the hospital. When he walked around the corner, he suddenly saw Qiao Qianyan rushing past. He quickly chased after him, grabbed Qiao Qianyan's arm and asked Said: "Qianyan? Why are you here?"

Qiao Qianyan was woken up from an excessive shock. He looked at Xing Chen who was intact in front of him, his eyes were sore and stinging, and he said hoarsely: "Are you okay?"

Xing Chen: "It's okay, just a little bit of skin on the arm. You... read the news?"

Qiao Qianyan roared: "Why shut down the phone when it's okay?!"

Xing Chen was taken aback by his yelling, and took out his mobile phone to have a look, the mobile phone did not know when it ran out of battery and turned off.Seeing Qiao Qianyan like this, he felt guilty and distressed. He hugged Qiao Qianyan at the corner and kept stroking his back and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault, don't be angry. I'm fine, I'm not hurt."

Qiao Qianyan closed her eyes hard, and there was a little unnoticeable choking in her voice: "Xing Chen...don't make such jokes with me."

Xing Chen pressed his head between his necks, lowered his head and kissed his hair, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I will always carry a power bank with me in the future. It will never happen again, huh?"

Qiao Qianyan gradually calmed down, separated from Xing Chen, looked at him and said, "Since I'm fine, then I'll go to the company. Do you still have work in the afternoon?"

Xing Chen stretched out his hand to stroke his face, and said softly, "I'll go to the leader to discuss something. Remember not to drink at night, I'll wait for you at home."

Qiao Qianyan forced a smile, and the two left the hospital together.

It was already snowing heavily outside the hospital. Xing Chen's car had knocked off the bumper in the accident and had already been sent to the shop for repairs.The two took a taxi, Xing Chen got off after arriving at the municipal party committee, and Qiao Qianyan asked the driver to go to the industrial park.

Qiao Qianyan leaned on the back seat and looked at the snow outside the car window. He was sweating from running just now. At this time, the clothes inside were half dry, and there were bursts of cool air on his back.

At this moment, Qiao Qianyan finally realized that to him, Xing Chen was no longer the one who could just leave.

As soon as Xing Chen finished his work, he went to Qiao Qianyan's house.The house in Chengnan Garden does not have underfloor heating installed, and relies on air conditioning for winter.After Xing Chen entered the house, he found that the air conditioner was also broken. He took a tool to check around and didn't see why, so he closed the door and went back to his home.

Qiao Qianyan and his colleagues left the hotel after dinner, seeing a vast expanse of whiteness in front of them.

While waiting for the bus, Qiao Qianyan received a call from Xing Chen.

Xing Chen: "Qianyan, the air conditioner in your house is broken, come to my house after get off work."

Qiao Qianyan moved a few steps to the side to prevent Mother Xing from hearing the sound, and replied in a low voice, "Okay."

The business car took the colleagues home one by one. Qiao Qianyan got off the car at the intersection where Xing Chen's house was located, and walked towards the community stepping on the snow with deep feet and shallow feet.

The north wind howled, and large flakes of snow fell on people's heads. Qiao Qianyan's clothes didn't have a hat, so he could only walk forward with his head down and his hands covering his eyes.while walking
