miss me

Bai Qingzhou's gaze was deep and far away, like waves rising up on the broad sea, and the huge waves hit the tip of his heart, making Xia Xinghe's heart beat twice faster.

One second, two seconds.

Bai Qingzhou slightly raised the corners of his lips.

Xia Xinghe came to his senses, coughed lightly, and immediately put away the smile on his face.He awkwardly touched the tip of his nose: "Well, you came back early today."

Bai Qingzhou frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with the 180-degree change in his attitude, but it was only for a moment, and he quickly retracted his eyes, returning to his previous indifferent state.

"It's not early," Bai Qingzhou turned on his phone and looked at the time again, before saying, "5:8, the normal off-duty time is 1:[-] sharp, [-] minutes to change clothes, [-] minutes to walk from the office, there is no error More than [-] minute."

Xia Xinghe: "..."

It doesn't have to be so precise.

If one were to ask Xia Xinghe how he was feeling right now, he would probably say two words "embarrassed" and four words "extremely embarrassing".

He usually goes out at [-] o'clock in the afternoon, and usually returns at [-] or [-] o'clock. He rarely meets Bai Qingzhou face to face. Today, he was so excited that he completely forgot the time. Only now did he realize that it was already dark.

Meeting in such an unclear state, the man in front of him was both familiar and unfamiliar, Xia Xinghe pursed his lower lip, not knowing what to say for a moment.

They have been intimate, quarreled, and haven't seen each other for four years. The distance between them is not only the distance of time and space, but also the distance between hearts. He has never seen through Bai Qingzhou's heart, so Loved and separated, even with all the courage disappeared.

In the past, he stalked Bai Qingzhou with such enthusiasm that his tail turned into a flower, but now the distance between the two was only fifty centimeters, but he didn't have the courage to speak.

The atmosphere was stagnant, and the air was lumpy. Bai Qingzhou seemed dissatisfied with the silence, and finally spoke first: "You just said that the hind legs of bamboo can be stepped on the ground?"

"...Well," Xia Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief, and followed his words, "Although it's still suspended most of the time, it can indeed be put down occasionally."

Xia Xinghe waved his hand towards Zhuzi, and threw out the frisbee with one hand, showing Bai Qingzhou a demonstration, "Bamboo! Come! Want to play?"

When facing Bamboo, he had a smile on his face again, and Bamboo ran out jubilantly, laughing wheezingly, and soon came back with a Frisbee in his mouth.

"Good boy," Xia Xinghe rubbed his neck, and fed him a few snacks, "Do it again?"

Bamboo blinked, jumped and rushed out again.

After going back and forth like this several times, the bamboo was a little out of breath, Xia Xinghe patted its head to show encouragement, and did not continue.

Most Samoyeds love to laugh, and bamboo is no exception. It is very cold in front of outsiders. After getting to know it, it is common for it to be coquettish and cute. Between the two of them, he rubbed Bai Qingzhou's leg for a while, and bit Xia Xinghe's trouser leg for a while.

With this smiling angel by his side, the awkward atmosphere between the two quietly eased, and after a few runs, the condition of the bamboo was clearly revealed—its hind legs could indeed touch the ground.

Although it still runs with a limp most of the time, when it forgets to run, its hind legs return to normal unconsciously, which also confirms the previous diagnosis of the veterinarian - bamboo's injury has healed up long ago, The reason why he is still walking with a limp is actually because of psychological problems.

Bamboo was still rubbing against Xia Xinghe's trouser legs, obediently like a child, Bai Qingzhou's eyes moved slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Very good." After a moment of silence, he added, "... ...I was wrong."

Xia Xinghe was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that he still remembered the quarrel between the two before, and he was embarrassed to take all the credit for himself, and said, "Actually, I also asked others."

In fact, neither he nor Bai Qingzhou had the right idea at first.

Bai Qingzhou didn't think it was necessary, so he never thought of expressing his thoughts with Zhuzi; and although Xia Xinghe wanted to express, he just put his thoughts into action on his own, and wanted to talk to Zhuzi without receiving feedback from Zhuzi. I gave up, never thought that they might just have different expressions, and failed to convey their emotions to each other.

Xia Xinghe hesitated, not knowing how to explain what Aunt Zhang taught him, but Bai Qingzhou didn't mind much, his light-colored eyes fixedly looked at Xia Xinghe, and the corners of his lips slightly lifted: "You are very powerful!" .”

Xia Xinghe's heartbeat suddenly jumped two beats, he murmured "Mmm", and unconsciously turned his eyes away.He seldom heard such a straightforward compliment from Bai Qingzhou, so much so that he left behind what he originally wanted to say.

But even if he was asked to talk, he couldn't tell why. Communication has never been an easy task, both for dogs and people.

After taking the first step, the road ahead will be much easier.The training of bamboo is like this, and so is the relationship between the two.

After that day, Xia Xinghe came to help Zhuzi recover as usual, but he no longer deliberately avoided Bai Qingzhou. Sometimes the two met by chance and would look at each other and smile. Then Xia Xinghe continued to tease Zhuzi, and Bai Qingzhou would sometimes return to Working in the room, sometimes standing next to Xia Xinghe to look at the bamboo, there is no more communication, but it seems to have formed a tacit understanding.

The past is still lingering in their memory, but they all tacitly no longer mention it.

After breaking up that year, Xia Xinghe also regretted the impulsiveness at that time, but Bai Qingzhou resolutely went abroad to study for a doctorate, and there was no room for him to hold him back.

In fact, Bai Qingzhou has always planned to study abroad. He has a clear plan for the future, and Xia Xinghe clearly understands that there is no self in this plan.

I want to understand that that moment is painful, my heart feels sore and sore like being crawled over by countless ants, and it is calm when I really let go.As I grow older, I realize more and more that love is only a small part of a person's life. It makes you happy, makes you miserable, and makes you unable to extricate yourself, but it is not indispensable.

Occasionally, when I think of it, I will sigh and miss it, but the days will always go on.

A week passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the weekend of the second week.

During this time, Xia Xinghe insisted on going to bed early and getting up early, and it was just after six o'clock when he woke up.He drank a glass of milk in the microwave, fried an egg and added it to the slice of bread. While waiting, he went to the desk and turned on the computer.

I was used to staying up late before, and I always slept until the sun was up when I fell asleep. Recently, I just adjusted my schedule. I wrote part at night and another part in the morning. The efficiency was higher than before, and my sleep was more solid than before.

Breakfast was finished quickly, Xia Xinghe opened the article and continued the unfinished chapters from last night.

Writing this new article is not easy, it is not a question of the general direction of the plot, but a question of details.

In terms of the plot, the feedback from readers is good. Many people said, "It's the first time I saw this genre, but I was immediately attracted to it." .

I was hospitalized for more than half a month before, and I saw the joys and sorrows in the hospital, and the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Xia Xinghe defined the dog owner's occupation as a doctor in the article. However, the profession of a doctor is very professional, and it is difficult for non-experts to understand clearly. Xia Xinghe almost every day Half of the time is spent looking up information, and occasionally being picked out by careful readers, he can only be more careful in writing and writing.

Sitting in front of the computer for several hours, the sun rose to a high place without knowing it.After checking the new chapter again, after confirming that there was no problem, Xia Xinghe posted it to the draft box in the background.

The system indicated that the save was successful, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned off the computer, half leaned on the soft sofa next to him, and found a comfortable position to play with his phone.

The moment the phone screen turned on, a WeChat message also popped up.

[Bo: Are you there? ]

[Bai: I'm going to take Bamboo to review tomorrow, today's training will be with you? ]

The last message was sent 2 minutes ago.

[Bo: Haven't woken up yet? ]

There was some dissatisfaction hidden in the flat tone.

Xia Xinghe was so familiar with this kind of Bai Qingzhou, he smiled knowingly, and the expression of Bai Qingzhou frowning slightly and frowning naturally appeared in front of his eyes.

I have to admit that Bai Qingzhou looks good even when he frowns.

Xia Xinghe recalled a time before, he did not know how he provoked Bai Qingzhou, Bai Qingzhou frowned and was about to explode, but he was stunned suddenly, and blurted out involuntarily: "You look so handsome when you frown!"

"..."

At that time, Bai Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, turned his head and said nothing, Xia Xinghe thought the matter was over, but at night, Bai Qingzhou still remembered clearly, deliberately tormented him in other places, tormented him for a long time, and had to be let He cried and said "I dare not" before giving up.

Occasionally recalling the past is quite interesting, but you can only miss it, and you can't start it again. Xia Xinghe returned his eyes to the screen, and drove the strands of thoughts out of his mind, sending a message to Bai Qingzhou.

[Xiao Zhuzi: I got up early, I was just typing. ]

[Xiao Zhuzi: Let’s go together if necessary, I have no objection. ]

In all fairness, regardless of past relationships, Bai Qingzhou is indeed a very good person.

Although a little indifferent and unreasonable, everything he has done is a textbook-level model.

Sometimes Xia Xinghe asked Bai Qingzhou to help record the training data, training time, number of laps, bamboo's gait... all kinds of numbers are complicated and intertwined, and Bai Qingzhou sorted them out rigorously and meticulously, without any mistakes.

Not only that, when Bai Qingzhou recorded the data, he also deliberately considered practicality. He used simple tables to organize and classify the important data. Read clearly, so Xia Xinghe didn't hate to train with him for bamboo.

After the message was sent, Bai Qingzhou replied in seconds.

[Bo: Good. ]

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the sky seemed to be a bit dark, and the sun was hidden in the clouds. Xia Xinghe checked the weather forecast, only to find that it will rain today.

But he had already made an appointment with Bai Qingzhou, Xia Xinghe didn't want to miss the appointment, so he went back, changed his clothes and took an umbrella, and arrived at Bai Qingzhou's house as usual.

Bai Qingzhou was already waiting for him in the yard, the two exchanged a few words, and Xia Xinghe began to help Zhuzi with training.

Zhuzi was already very familiar with this training mode, seeing Xia Xinghe take out his favorite yellow Frisbee from his schoolbag, he immediately barked excitedly, wagging his tail into a beautiful white velvet flower.

Today's weather is really not good, the sky is shrouded in dark clouds, and the autumn wind blows up the dust on the ground, but with the cooperation of the two, everything is in order.Xia Xinghe's training, Bai Qingzhou's records, time passed without knowing it, today's training task was completed very quickly, and it was not affected by the bad weather in the slightest.

After the last set was done, Xia Xinghe asked Zhuzi to lie down and massage his legs as usual, but just after rubbing it twice, a burst of thunder exploded in his ears.

The wind howled and rolled up the dust, and the predicted heavy rain came as expected.

The raindrops were fast and heavy, like pouring down, the two of them and a dog ran to the eaves to shelter from the rain, but the eaves were too narrow and open, so there were still raindrops floating on them.

Bai Qingzhou frowned slightly, and asked, "Go home and sit down first?"

"……thanks."

Xia Xinghe hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

Zhuzi was lying under the eaves watching the rain, unwilling to enter the house, while Xia Xinghe followed Bai Qingzhou into the house. At this time, he really did not expect the rain to last for so long, so long that he could not return all night. Home.
