passion story

This shit is hanging on his body.

"Om-"

There was a sudden vibration in the pocket.

Just before entering the emergency room, he took out Zhou He's cell phone and put it in his pocket.

Caller: soft

The profile picture is a beautiful woman with long wavy hair, probably she is herself.

Xue Lizhen hesitated for a few seconds, and Zhou He on the bed still had his eyes closed, motionless.

He walked out of the ward by accident and picked up the phone.

"What are you doing, it took you so long to pick up?" A soft female voice came from the other end.

"Hello, I'm Zhou He's...friend, he..."

"Huh?" The woman interrupted Xue Lizhen: "Where's Zhou He?"

"He..." Xue Lizhen glanced at the door of the ward, privately he didn't want to tell the girl that Zhou He had entered the emergency room, so that he could stay with Zhou He for a while—but he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the truth Said: "Zhou He drank too much with others, a little uncomfortable, now in the hospital."

"Huh?! Is he all right?"

"It's nothing, it's just an infusion, and he fell asleep."

"Ah, then... But, today is my birthday party."

Xue Lizhen: "..."

"Zhou He promised to take me to Biye Mountain to play tonight, my girlfriends are here," the woman's voice became weaker and weaker: "What should I do?"

"...I'll ask him when he wakes up."

"When will you have to wait? How about you call him for me and give him the phone."

Xue Lizhen took a deep breath quietly, restraining the urge to hang up the phone.

"He just fell asleep."

There was no sound over there.

Xue Lizhen waited for a few seconds and said strangely, "Hello?"

A coquettish voice: "Hmph."

The phone was hung up.

Xue Lizhen: "..."

Zhou He can bear this virtue?Xue Lizhen thought, it's hard to embarrass Zhou He.To put it aside, such a woman Zhou He can't even look at it.Zhou He liked to follow him, and Xue Lizhen thought of himself again. He was a troubled boy with thorns in his adolescence, and then he got together with Zhou He by mistake. Later, his mother had a cerebral hemorrhage and asked Zhou He to marry him. Money... Anyway, I can't get tough anymore.

Hey, what a mess.

Xue Lizhen put the phone back in his pocket, opened the door and walked into the ward.

Then he looked at Zhou He.

Xue Lizhen was startled, and subconsciously paused.

He didn't dare to look at Zhou He's attractive eyes, so he had to cast his gaze out of the window, and said seemingly unintentionally: "Just now your cell phone rang, I saw you fell asleep, so I didn't call you."

"Oh, give me your phone." Zhou He said flatly.

Xue Lizhen handed him the phone.

Zhou He flicked the phone a few times, and then put the phone next to the pillow.

The two were relatively speechless.

Xue Lizhen was flustered, thinking that Zhou He would not find out, and thinking about why I was guilty, so I answered the phone for him without saying anything.

Zhou He opened his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, when Xue Lizhen was already thinking about whether to go down and buy some supper, Zhou He suddenly said:

"Xue Lizhen."

Xue Lizhen was taken aback: "Huh?"

"Do you still like me?"

Xue Lizhen was dumbfounded.He didn't expect Zhou He to ask this question at all.

How should I answer this? !Are you an idiot? !I don't like how you stay in the security department anxiously every day? !I don't like you you wanna fuck me on call? !I don't like you letting you scold me and make you mess up? !I don't like you...are you an idiot? !right? !

But Zhou He went on to himself, "We've known each other for so long, I have nothing to hide from you, so let's just say it straight - it's okay for us to play together, let's resolve each other, help out, etc. Yes... Now that you and I have such a relationship, I won't treat you badly, and it's not good to take care of you too much in the company, but if you want to go out and work alone in the future, I will definitely support you in terms of funds and connections. Xue Lizhen," Zhou Heqing Sighed softly: "I will get married sooner or later, the old man is getting old, his property is waiting for me to take over, he also urged me to get married, Zhou Wen is still watching, I can't... change my trajectory , do you understand?"

Xue Lizhen was silent for a while, then nodded like a robot.

He understands.

A few years ago, when he accidentally saw Zhou He's text messages flirting with a little girl on his mobile phone, when Zhou He said to him, "Aren't we just kidding?", he understood.

If Zhou He likes girls, he will definitely get married, among other things, if he just comes out, he will definitely be kicked out by the old man, and those real properties will fall into Zhou Wen's hands.

Just because of this, Zhou He will also get married.

Xue Lizhen understands.

But, that's how fucked up people are, it's one thing to know, and another to do it - can't control yourself.

Xue Lizhen got up, said in a low voice, "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette", and then walked out of the ward as if fleeing.

The author has something to say:

It's so cool to abuse...

☆, Fanwai - Xue Lizhen and Zhou He (6)

一

Fast forward to June.

Three months have passed since Zhou He said those words in the ward.

My mother was already speechless, and began to lose control of her bladder and bowels. The doctor said to Xue Lizhen with a regretful expression: "After all, the old man is old and has been ill for so long...you should be mentally prepared."

Xue Lizhen nodded.

In the past three months, he worked in the security department as usual, but simply packed a few clothes and moved back home.Taking care of my mother is very strenuous. In the hot weather, I have to scrub her body every day, apply prickly heat powder, and set the alarm clock to wake her up at night to help her turn over.

Being so busy, he didn't have much time to think about that idiot Zhou He.

Therefore, it was not until June that Xue Lizhen remembered that he hadn't seen Zhou He for a long, long time.

The last time I saw Zhou He, the host computer of his returnee secretary burned out. Xue Lizhen went to move the disabled host downstairs, and Zhou He happened to be explaining something to the secretary at that time.Xue Lizhen respectfully called him "Mr. Zhou", and Zhou He nodded.

Then Xue Lizhen went out with the host computer, his shirt was wet with sweat, sticking sticky to his back.

Behind him, Zhou He was still explaining his work, his voice was calm, his language was fluent, and he popped out a few English words from time to time.

Xue Lizhen couldn't help thinking, when did Zhou He's English become so good?He was obviously so ignorant when he was in school.

Xue Lizhen likes to wear that bracelet when she goes out to eat alone on weekends or goes shopping in the supermarket.

Obsidian - now seems very rustic.Xue Lizhen thought it was good, the deep black looked cool.

Yes, it is the string that Zhou He gave Duan Kexiang.

At the time when Zhou He cheated on her, Duan Kexiang begged Xue Lizhen to accompany her to "catch the adulterer", and then...he caught her.Duan Kexiang cried and threw the bracelet to the ground, and Zhou He walked away expressionlessly with his arms around Xinhuan.Duan Kexiang cried more and more fiercely, so he turned his head and covered his face and ran away.

There is a lesson to be learned, at that time Xue Lizhen only thought that Zhou He was a scumbag, and he really didn't have those unspeakable thoughts.He just thought, this bracelet is quite valuable, maybe Duan Kexiang regretted it later and came back to pick up the bracelet.

He was afraid of being picked up by others, so he picked it up and put it in his pocket, planning to return it to Duan Kexiang when he calmed down.

later--

Of course it was never returned to her.

This bracelet became the secret that made Xue Lizhen both guilty and happy.He can only wear it when no one else knows him, just like he and Zhou He can only kiss and have sex secretly when no one else knows.

Xue Lizhen walked into the supermarket, first went to buy prickly heat powder, and then went to the baby products store to buy diapers.

What brand is good...

"Xue Lizhen?"

Xue Lizhen turned her head when she heard the sound.

"It's really you!" Duan Kexiang was surprised.

"Kexiang," Xue Lizhen was taken aback, "Why are you back?"

Duan Kexiang got good grades and got into college in Shanghai. I heard that he went to Hangzhou after graduation. Within two years, his parents picked him up.

"My second aunt is celebrating her 70th birthday this year, so I won't be able to come back," Duan Kexiang smiled, "I haven't seen you for a long time, shall we sit down for a while?"

Xue Lizhen nodded simply: "There is a milk tea shop next to it, let's go."

Duan Kexiang is even more beautiful.

Of course, she was so beautiful when she was a small town girl in school uniform, and there is no reason not to be beautiful now.

Her long, soft chestnut hair is braided and hangs on her shoulders; she is wearing a pure white dress with a small skirt that flutters slightly when she walks; she has a pair of black high-heeled shoes with straps on her feet, and a cute bow tie on her ankles.

"What have you been doing these two years?" Duan Kexiang asked softly after taking a sip of cocoa.

Xue Lizhen smiled: "I work in a construction company and do some chores."

"Construction company," Duan Kexiang also smiled: "Sounds good."

"How about you, how is Hangzhou?"

"It's pretty good, it's much better than the north anyway," Duan Kexiang said, taking out his phone and pointing out a photo to show Xue Lizhen: "I just took it two days ago, look at the blue sky."

"That's great," Xue Lizhen said sincerely, "Gancheng is completely smoggy now."

It is very happy to meet Duan Kexiang by chance, after all, they have played together since childhood.Duan Kexiang speaks gracefully and looks beautiful, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Xue Lizhen and Duan Kexiang chatted for more than an hour.

"Ke Xiang, I have to go back, my mother can't do without people."

"Hey, go back quickly, I'll go and see my aunt."

"No need," Xue Lizhen felt that there was no need to make Duan Kexiang feel uncomfortable: "The house is a mess, I will tell her what you want for you."

"Then...well, we'll keep in touch."

"No problem." Xue Lizhen smiled at her.

"Okay, then go home quickly, I'm going back to my second aunt's house too."

"Goodbye." Xue Lizhen waved to Duan Kexiang.

Duan Kexiang also waved.

Xue Lizhen turned around and walked towards home. Just after taking two steps, someone patted her on the shoulder.

He turned around and saw Duan Kexiang biting his lip.

"what happened?"

"You..." Duan Kexiang's nose was slightly sweating: "Are you working in Zhou He's company?"

Xue Lizhen choked for breath.

Duan Kexiang asked again: "You... still like him?"

Xue Lizhen: "..."

He cleared his throat with difficulty: "Ke Xiang, what do you mean?"

"This, I really remember," Duan Kexiang stared at Xue Lizhen's wrist: "And at that time, I felt that you two..."

What the hell!

Xue Lizhen's face turned pale immediately.

"Don't be nervous..." Duan Kexiang said helplessly, "I can accept... homosexuality."

"I..." Xue Lizhen wanted to defend, but couldn't say anything.

Duan Kexiang sighed: "Forget it, just pretend that I didn't ask anything, but..."

"That person Zhou He, no way. Xue Lizhen."

In July, Zhou He finally found Xue Lizhen again.

That day, Xue Lizhen just watched the female employees in the company gossip about Mr. Zhou's fiancée. One said that Mr. Zhou's fiancée was so-so-looking, and Mr. Zhou was so handsome... The other said what do you know? I heard that the girl's father is a tax Bureau.

After twelve o'clock that night, when Xue Lizhen was half asleep and half awake, he heard the phone ring.

"Shuiyunjian on Taikang Road, 302, come..." Zhou He's voice was full of drunkenness.

Xue Lizhen scolded this idiot in his heart, why did he drink like this again, because he was afraid that his stomach would hurt?

Two minutes before one in the morning, he knocked on the door of 2.

The moment the door opened, he was dragged in by Zhou He.

Then I dragged it all the way to the bed, as if I had been drugged with so much strength.

Zhou He impatiently tore at Xue Lizhen's buttons, "tack-tat-tat", a series of buttons fell to the ground.

"Zhou He, you fucking..."

"Xue Lizhen, I want to fuck you."

Xue Lizhen was amused, thinking, sure enough, his father's fiancée who is an official in the tax bureau can't satisfy Mr. Zhou?

After thinking about it, I'm so happy, crazy.

"Are you still angry?" Zhou He asked.

"No..." Xue Lizhen put his arms around Zhou He, rubbing his hands back and forth on his tight back.

"What are you doing during this time?" Zhou He asked again.

"Nothing." Did you take the wrong medicine today? So many words.

"Lift up your waist." Zhou He squeezed Xue Lizhen's calf.

"Hmm... hiss! You fucking—" Zhou He entered without warning, causing Xue Lizhen to burst into tears in pain.

"Are you cool?"

"Sweet you, uncle!"

"One more curse." Zhou He squinted his peach blossom eyes halfway, with a satisfied expression on his face: "I like you so much."

……

The next morning, Xue Lizhen woke up, and Zhou He slept like a dead pig beside him.

The clothes were unwearable, Xue Lizhen hesitated for two seconds, and picked up Zhou He's white shirt from the ground.

Fortunately, the buttons of the jeans were not pulled off by Zhou He.

Xue Lizhen got dressed, washed her face hastily, and slipped out.It's five past six, and Aunt Li will be here at seven.

On the taxi home, he received a call from Zhou He.

"Where are my clothes?"

Xue Lizhen glanced at the driver guiltily: "On me."

"Yo," Zhou He smiled, "Do you want to take it back for collection?"

"I'm in a hurry to get home."

"What's the hurry, I don't have enough, you wait at home, I'll come over after asking Lao Chen to send you some clothes."

"Wait," Xue Lizhen looked at the receding street scene outside the window, swallowed, and said, "I haven't lived in the house in Linhai Bieyuan for a while, and I'm going back to my mother's place."

Zhou He stopped talking.

Xue Lizhen wanted to explain his mother's situation, but he swallowed the words abruptly.Zhou He has a fiancée who is about to get married, and he even went to have sex with Zhou He in the middle of the night - already quite despicable.He didn't want to create a feeling that "he should live in Zhou He's house".What did that become.

"Move back, just move back, it happens that Yang Qing's cousin is coming to Gancheng, and there is no place to live."

"I--"

"By the way, there is one more thing. Let me tell you when I think about it. Prepare the red envelope in advance," Zhou He said lightly, as if joking: "Yang Qing and I plan to get married, either next month or next month."

"...Well," Xue Lizhen felt a little out of breath, and opened the car window wider: "I will make a big red envelope."

"Come on, I'm just kidding, how much money do you earn a month and the big red envelopes?" Zhou He coughed and said, "That's enough, don't talk nonsense, remember to clean up the house in Linhai Bieyuan, don't leave it behind. What a mess, her cousin will be here in a few days."

"no problem."

Xue Lizhen hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, his home arrived.

Xue Lizhen handed over 50 yuan with downcast eyes, but the driver froze when he turned around to give the change:

"Hey, why are you... crying?"

In August, Zhou He approached Xue Lizhen three more times.Xue Lizhen fell in love with a little girl named Tong Keyan, nicknamed Xiaotong, with cute round eyes.

The last time, that night, when Zhou He was heaving on Xue Lizhen's body, Xue Lizhen's phone turned on.

Xiaotong sent a voice, saying that she watched a ghost movie and was afraid to sleep, so she asked Xue Lizhen to chat with her.

Xue Lizhen looked at Zhou He's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and unexpectedly replied "Yes".

Then he fought Zhou He, and Zhou He was punched in the eye by him.

In memory, Zhou He's last sentence is:

"Xue Lizhen, I'm ready to raise a dog - get out!"

五

On September [-]nd, Xue Lizhen lost her mother.

The author has something to say:

Tomorrow will really end this episode...

☆, Fanwai - Xue Lizhen and Zhou He ([-])

一

Mom's funeral was simple, and she arranged it herself-it was a few years ago when she was still sober, she told Xue Lizhen: "Don't make a big deal when I die, just find a place to bury it, don't buy it. Those expensive cemeteries... the ashes can also be placed in the funeral home."

Xue Lizhen didn't tell Zhou He, or to be precise, he didn't tell anyone.There is only a wreath standing alone at the entrance of the corridor, which reads "Brought by the filial son Xue Lizhen".The next day, Xue Lizhen carried the urn to the cemetery he bought not long ago.

The manager of the cemetery repeatedly confirmed to Xue Lizhen: "This...inviting the old man in depends on the day. Do you really decide today?"

Xue Lizhen nodded: "Well, just today."

Xue Lizhen didn't believe in these auspicious and inauspicious things, so he even "disbelieved" his mother. Anyway, Xue Lizhen thought, I am my mother's only family member, and she would agree.

Xue Lizhen had been running all day without touching the ground, from the funeral in the morning to the time the cremation was finished and she brought the urn to the cemetery.From last night to now, he hadn't eaten three meals, but he didn't feel hungry.

Everything was handled properly, and it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.The cemetery was quiet, and the orange-red sunset slanted on the tombstones.Xue Lizhen sat in front of the tombstone with her knees crossed, belatedly aware that she was hungry.Hungry and panicked.

When he was in junior high school, his mother gave him 15 yuan every day, and he had to rely on this 15 yuan for breakfast and lunch.Although my mother gave me little money, she often reminded him before going out to buy groceries early in the morning: "Lizhen, get up early, don't skip breakfast."

Thinking of this, Xue Lizhen suddenly felt sad, and tears burst out.It's like opening a gate.

Xue Lizhen thought, I don't have a mother anymore.I have no relatives in this world anymore.

Fortunately, there was no one in the cemetery. Xue Lizhen covered his face and wept bitterly, and the sound of sobs echoed for a long time.

two

The next day, Xue Lizhen went to work as usual.Yesterday's sorrow was no longer on his face, and he vaguely thought that some part of his soul—if there was one—was probably taken underground by his mother.

The phone on the desk rang, and Xue Lizhen picked it up.

"Xue Lizhen, Mr. Zhou asked you to go to his office." It turned out to be Zhou He's returnee secretary.

"okay."

Since the last fight, Zhou He never contacted him again.

Xue Lizhen walked to the door of Zhou He's office and knocked on the door twice.

"Come in."

"Sit down," Zhou He pointed at the sofa next to his desk, shaking his chin: "I have something to tell you."

"Yes." Xue Lizhen sat down.

"It's like this. Our company is going to open a branch in Qi County, and now there is an industrial park to be built there. There is a lot of room for development." Zhou He's tone was calm, and Xue Lizhen thought for no reason, was I dreaming the night of the big fight? ?

"I don't think it's interesting for you to stay in the security department. You can go to Qi County, go there to run business and exercise, and you will be the supervisor of the branch in two years."

"...has the company decided?"

"Yes, it's already set. The HR department will send out a notice tomorrow. Let me tell you in advance."

Xue Lizhen was silent for a few seconds, and said, "But my mother... can't do without people."

Zhou He frowned, with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Didn't you hire a nurse? This branch has a very good development prospect. It is definitely better for you to go there than to stay in the security department."

Xue Lizhen knew that there was no room for this matter.

He had no choice but to nod: "OK, when shall I go then?"

"Today is Tuesday... let's go next week."

"……Um."

Xue Lizhen stood up: "Then I'll go back."

"Wait," Zhou He called Xue Lizhen to stop, paused, and said, "I'm getting married on the [-]st of next month."

There was a "boom" in Xue Lizhen's head.

"And...Miss Yang?"

"No, Xiao Han, you don't know..." Zhou He smiled: "She is already pregnant, and she is urging me to get married, so let's get married."

Oh, it turned out to be waiting here.

When Xue Lizhen returned to the security department, her hands and feet were stiff.

Zhou He is getting married, no, Zhou He, Zhou He is already a father.

He transferred me to Qi County, which meant to end it completely, right?

three

Xue Lizhen skipped work immediately, and wandered around the street at noon.Gancheng has developed rapidly in recent years, and the small shops and billiard halls he and Zhou He used to eat in the past have all disappeared.Mom is gone, Zhou He has become a father.

Xue Lizhen was a little dizzy, thinking he might be suffering from heat stroke, so he walked into a bar by the roadside.

At this moment, the bar had just opened, and there were no customers in it, and the waiter was carelessly wiping the bar.

Xue Lizhen ordered a bundle of beer and drank it slowly while leaning on a chair.

From noon to afternoon to night, from empty to overcrowded, from faint light music to hysterical rock and roll, Xue Lizhen stayed until ten o'clock in the evening.He took his time and really drank the whole bundle of beer.

"Hey, brother, are you alright?" The bar owner was a woman in her thirties and 40s. Seeing that Xue Lizhen had been drinking for so long, she asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Xue Lizhen felt that he could speak clearly and quickly, and he wasn't drunk at all.

"...Okay." The boss shrugged and left.

……

"do not move."

Xue Lizhen blinked and found that his head was resting on a hard object.

The light in his field of vision was dim, and he stared wide-eyed for a few seconds before realizing, "Zhou He?"

"Hmm. How do you drink like this?"

"...Where is this?" He felt Zhou He's hand on his shoulder.

"It's in the taxi, it's almost home."

Xue Lizhen thought, am I dreaming?

Zhou He didn't speak, and Xue Lizhen didn't speak either, for fear of breaking a good dream.

In fact, he knew it was not a dream.

——So I dare not speak anymore.

After a while the taxi stopped, Zhou He paid the money and dragged Xue Lizhen out of the car.

The moment his feet hit the ground, Xue Lizhen slid straight down.

"Fuck, you're stupid!" Zhou He quickly pulled him up and put his arms on his shoulders.

Xue Lizhen thought, it seems that I am really drunk.

"Let's go to your house," Xue Lizhen hung on Zhou He and smiled, "Will Xiao Han be willing?"

"...Xiao Han doesn't live with me now."

"Oh," Xue Lizhen continued to ask, "Then would you like it?"

Zhou He sighed, and warm breath brushed Xue Lizhen's ear: "I don't want to come to pick you up?"

"Yeah, why are you here?"

"The bartender called me and said you asked me to pick you up."

"Then you're here."

"Otherwise, I'll make you drunk to death." Zhou He squeezed Xue Lizhen's wrist: "There are steps ahead."

Xue Lizhen put his face to Zhou He's chest, and under the cover of the night and mottled tree shadows, he lightly bit a small piece of skin exposed by his collar: "You carry me upstairs."

Zhou He pushed his head away: "Don't make trouble, it's on the 12th floor, let's take the elevator."

Zhou He's "Don't make trouble" hit Xue Lizhen's chest like a trembling electric current.

Xue Lizhen said stickily: "Then you...carry me in the elevator."

Zhou He stopped and looked down at Xue Lizhen: "Are you sure?"

Xue Lizhen leaned over and rubbed against his lips.

In the next second, he was directly hugged by Zhou Heheng.

During the lingering interval, Xue Lizhen asked Zhou He: "Am I a bitch? You are the father of a child."

Zhou He stopped for a second, then squeezed Xue Lizhen's face firmly, and said in a low voice, "Shut up."

"Zhou He," Xue Lizhen hugged his waist, "This is the last time."

"……Um."

"Come on, hurry up." Xue Lizhen smiled drunkenly.

four

Xue Lizhen and Zhou He went crazy until 02:30 in the morning.

In the end, Xue Lizhen couldn't straighten her waist, so she grabbed Zhou He, wrapped her arms around his waist and asked, "Will I come when you get married?"

Zhou He seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said, "Come if you want."

"I'm afraid that I will go to your wedding," Xue Lizhen buried his face in the depression in the center of Zhou He's shoulder blades: "I will snatch you."

Zhou He patted Xue Lizhen's arm: "Okay, go to sleep."

"Zhou He," Xue Lizhen's nose was sore, and two lines of tears welled up: "Is it okay if you don't get married?"

Zhou He was silent.

"My child... my child, by the way, she is pregnant," Xue Lizhen twitched violently: "Don't get married, stay with me, okay?"

Zhou He remained silent.

"I beg you."

Xue Lizhen begged drunkenly.

After a while, he heard Zhou He say:

"No."

His face was pressed against Zhou He's back, and when Zhou He spoke, there was a slight vibration, like a hot knife scraping his cheek.

"I'm serious, Zhou He," Xue Lizhen wiped the tears from his face on the bed sheet, "I beg you just this once, and I will never beg you again."

"I said no!" Zhou He seemed to be angry, and suddenly pushed Xue Lizhen's arm away, and got up and got out of bed: "Is it interesting for you to be so fussy? Aren't you a very straightforward person before? Xue Lizhen, I was with you at that time." When you're together, to be honest, I think you're a man, not as procrastinating and annoying as a little girl—it's boring if you're like this, Xue Lizhen."

Xue Lizhen closed her eyes, and two more lines of tears slid down her temples and onto the pillow.

Because I love you.

五

Guangzhou is very hot and humid.

This is Xue Lizhen's first impression of Guangzhou.

On the train going south to Guangzhou, he happened to run into a junior high school classmate, the little girl who used to be a flamboyant little girl, but now she is a mother-to-be with her belly upright.

"Hey, let me tell you, Duan Kexiang, do you still remember?" the female classmate asked gossipingly.

"remember."

"Her, I heard someone say it some time ago," the female classmate lowered her voice ambiguously: "Now I'm a mistress."

"..."

"She has only graduated from university for a few years, and she has brought her parents to Hangzhou. Is the house in Hangzhou affordable for her family? I heard that she is next to an old man who is engaged in real estate. He is almost [-] Already!"

Xue Lizhen thought of Duan Kexiang's exquisite makeup and clothing on the day they met.

"Hey, tell me, she's so beautiful, and she's a college student. She can't marry someone. She has to be the old man's mistress..." The female classmate changed the subject and said to her husband next to her, "I want to eat bubble tea." noodle."

The man shook his head helplessly: "Be obedient, you can eat after a few more months."

Duan Kexiang bit her lip and said, "I don't discriminate against homosexuals." The back of Duan Kexiang's fluttering dress, Duan Kexiang...do you have so many difficulties?

Then he naturally thought of Zhou He, Zhou He had his reasons.Xue Lizhen didn't know why she thought so - she made it as if she and Zhou He were a pair of fateful couples.

Before Xue Lizhen left, he transferred to Zhou He the 10 yuan that Zhou He had lent him.In fact, he saved enough 10 yuan two years ago, but he has not paid it back.I always feel a little evasive and lucky in my heart. I am not with Zhou He because I am cheap, but mainly because I still owe him money, such a big favor... To put it bluntly, I am making excuses for myself.

Because I love you.

Xue Lizhen smoked a cigarette facing the bright southern sunshine, then went back to the house and continued to look for a job.

A classmate of his when he was in vocational high school was doing well in Guangzhou. Last year, he called to ask him if he would come to Guangzhou.At that time, Xue Lizhen simply replied "I won't come", but he didn't expect to come here a year later.

Let Zhou He get married, we are completely over.Xue Lizhen thought to herself.

But what he didn't expect was that in the second week after he made up his mind, he heard while chatting with colleagues from the security department on the Internet——

Zhou He got lung cancer.

The author has something to say:

Tomorrow, tomorrow must end...

☆, Fanwai - Xue Lizhen and Zhou He (8)

一

Xue Lizhen called Zhou He's buddies and got a positive answer.

Lung cancer...

Mom is gone, now Zhou He is going too?God, are you going to take everyone I love away?

No, I don't love him anymore, I...

Xue Lizhen's brain seemed to explode, and there were all kinds of fragments in a mess.

When he realized what he was doing, he was already standing at the ticket window of Guangzhou Railway Station.

"Go to Gancheng, the fastest car, please help me look."

"...The fastest is the high-speed train at 09:30 tonight. It takes eight hours and arrives around 05:30 tomorrow morning."

"Okay, let's go this way and buy a ticket."

"Business seat, first class seat, second class seat, which one do you want?"

"second class."

……

Xue Lizhen returned to the rental house, quickly packed a few clothes, unplugged the room, and cut off the power at the main switch at the door... After doing this, he suddenly realized that it was two o'clock in the afternoon.

There are still more than seven hours.

Xue Lizhen sat slumped on the floor, clutching her phone tightly—do you want to call Zhou He?

What can you say on the phone?How did you get lung cancer?Aren't you fucking going to get married? Do you have lung cancer?Zhou He, are you kidding me?

In fact, there is nothing to say, but Xue Lizhen just wants to hear Zhou He's voice, even if he said "I'm getting married". Guangzhou and Gancheng are so far apart, and Zhou He seems to be at his fingertips. The butterfly, flapping its wings, is about to fly away.

Zhou He.

The high-speed train was a bit late. At [-]:[-] in the morning, Xue Lizhen got off the train and stood on the platform of Gancheng Railway Station again.At this time, autumn has already entered the north, and the air is a little bitter, which is very different from the bright and warm southern country.

Xue Lizhen almost jogged to take a taxi.

"Chunhe District, hurry up, hurry up, please!"

He was so anxious that he looked like he was going to eat people. The driver might have been frightened, and he stepped on the accelerator silently without saying a word.

Fortunately, today is Saturday, and there are not many cars on the road. In less than 10 minutes, the taxi rushed to the gate of Chunhe Community.

Xue Lizhen paid the money in a hurry, and ran towards Zhou He's house with a canvas bag.

Flying all the way downstairs to Zhou He's house, Xue Lizhen remembered, what if Zhou He is not at home?

Zhou He should be in the hospital right now?

Moreover, Zhou He's house is a new-style community. If you want to enter the corridor, you have to swipe your card or ring the doorbell downstairs. Only when the people upstairs click "Open the door" can you enter the corridor.

Xue Lizhen took out his cell phone, his fingertips trembling, and dialed Zhou He's number.

It rang for a long time and no one answered.

Every "beep..." was a drumstick hitting his heart heavily.

"Xue Lizhen?"

Suddenly a voice came from behind.

Xue Lizhen turned her head, and saw Zhou He holding a large bottle of mineral water in his hand, looking at him in surprise.

He is here.Xue Lizhen thought.

Zhou He lost a lot of weight, his lines became sharper, but his complexion was pale.

"Didn't you go to Guangzhou—" Zhou He looked at the bulging canvas bag in Xue Lizhen's hand: "Are you...back?"

Xue Lizhen approached Zhou He, regardless of whether there were passers-by around, he reached out and touched Zhou He's face: "I heard that you are sick."

Zhou He smiled ugly: "The one that spread fast enough—is sick." After speaking, he coughed twice.

"Zhou He," Xue Lizhen dropped the bag in his hand, wrapped his arms around his ribs and tightly hugged him: "...Zhou He."

"Hey." Zhou He responded and hugged Xue Lizhen back.

Zhou He never mentioned marriage again, and Xue Lizhen didn't dare to ask.He accompanied Zhou He tremblingly, set an alarm on his phone to remind Zhou He to take his medicine on time, and then waited with Zhou He for the result of the puncture—no, it should be said that it was the result of the trial.

I don't know if it was because of his illness, but Zhou He's killing and decisive ruthlessness disappeared, and his whole person became silly and sweet. He had to be reminded to take medicine, fed when he drank water, and hugged when he slept at night.

Xue Lizhen felt that she was raising a child.

"Lizhen, how is Guangzhou?" Zhou He asked softly, nestling on Xue Lizhen's chest.

"Great."

"Have you found a job there?"

"A company notified me to go for an interview." Xue Lizhen rubbed Zhou He's hair: "I came back before I went."

Zhou He raised his head and smiled: "I'm so sorry for you, really. I found out, I've always wanted to fight Zhou Wen, Zhou Liye, and Zhou Liye's bastards in the company... fighting back and forth, In fact, I just couldn’t swallow that breath—it wasn’t necessary.”

Xue Lizhen turned her face away from him, feeling a bad premonition in her heart.

Sure enough, in the next second, Zhou He kissed Xue Lizhen on the lips, and said in a hoarse voice, "You treat me best... I'm sorry."

Xue Lizhen's nose was sore, and tears were about to come up again. He closed his eyes for a while, and forced them back.

Zhou He is explaining the funeral.

You're not fucking dead yet.

Going to get the puncture results tomorrow.

Xue Lizhen took off his loose T-shirt and asked Zhou He, "What are you doing?"

Zhou He was stunned, and blinked: "That's not what I meant."

Xue Lizhen thought it was strange, Zhou He would still refuse.

"That's what I mean." He pulled off Zhou He's pajama pants.

Xue Lizhen drove and the destination was the hospital.

Zhou He looked out the window the whole time without saying a word.

While waiting for the red light, Xue Lizhen squeezed Zhou He's palm: "What's for lunch?"
