Dear Chen Jiu

I looked at the time and played the game for a while, leaning against the hard chair and not feeling sleepy at all.

I simply increased the speed of the drip bottle, and went home early after hanging up.

Inadvertently glanced at the man next to him, who was sleeping with his head on his side unaffected.

Strange, why there is always a very inexplicable feeling.

I saw that his drip bottle was about to run out, and out of guilt, I cleared my throat, "Your salt water bottle is about to run out."

He was very light sleep, and moved his fingers when he heard this.

I ignored him and continued to play with my phone with my head down.

I looked down and watched this man pass by me. When he came back again, there was a glass of water in front of my eyes.

This person is quite righteous, I just raised my head to say thank you, but my words got stuck in my throat.

All the weird emotions I suppressed in my heart just now were well explained the moment I saw this face clearly.

"Thank you."

I took the water and drank it in one gulp.

"You're welcome."

According to my understanding of Chen Jiu, this is in return for reminding him that the salt water dripped out just now.

It was really as clear as ever with me.

I secretly increased the speed of the drip bottle, but it was in vain. Even if I drank the salt water in one breath, I couldn't keep up with his speed, and I was already dead.

Chen Jiu picked up the coat on the seat and sat down again.

"Uh, do you have a cold? I think the water you hang is different from mine."

I looked up at him, looking for nothing to say.

"No."

"Oh."

I squished the plastic cup I had finished drinking and then restored it, repeating back and forth, "Why are you here alone?"

"Or else?" Chen Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly.

Then what is the difference between you and me who are single, I thought to myself.

"It's not in the middle of the night. If someone comes to pick you up, do I still expect to get a ride?" I said with a playful smile.

"can."

He glanced at his phone and said calmly.

Someone really came to pick him up, assistant or fiancée?

Forget it, I don't have to be such a shiny light bulb, I still have some of that.

The main reason is that it is too heart-wrenching to actually meet a fiancée.

If my fiancée makes some intimate moves with Chen Jiu in a delicate way, I'm really afraid that I will do something illegal and disciplined at that time.

I made up the picture in my brain, suddenly pantothenic acid in my stomach felt like vomiting, I hurriedly stood up to find a trash can.

Chen Jiu stretched his legs calmly and gently pushed the trash can to my side.

I turned my back to the trash can and coughed for a while, but finally couldn't spit out anything.

"I'm just kidding, I have another bottle left after hanging this one.

You go first, don't make people wait. "

After speaking, we looked at each other in silence.

After a while, he turned his face, "I drove here by myself."

Oh, I thought about it in my heart, it's okay to give it to my old classmates.

"Then trouble you."

After I finished speaking, I looked at my drip bottle with a sad face, and Chen Jiu sat aside and looked at his mobile phone.

I hate that this drip bottle can't be done any faster. If Chen Jiu's patience is exhausted, I really have nowhere to reason.

But seriously, is this the first time Chen Jiu has been waiting for me? I leaned back in my chair and looked at the ceiling of the hospital wondering.

It is impossible to say that you are not happy at all, although this behavior does not mean anything.

After all, after contacting Chen Jiu these few times, no matter in private or in public, he is very decent, not as unkind as he was five years ago.

Now Chen Jiu can't find a single flaw in what he says and does, but I can't help but feel secretly happy in my heart.

My heart seems to be tightly bound by Chen Jiu. If he treats me better, I will be very happy.

"Why did you come to hang the water?" I still couldn't help but want to ask.

"Old problem."

"Stomach pain."

I asked tentatively.

Chen Jiu looked away from the phone screen and looked up at me.

"You drink a lot, and you don't eat on time.

did you-"

I want to say, you were like this when we lived together before, but I could still take care of you at that time, does anyone take care of you now?

It seems very inappropriate to say this, especially like a shameless villain who provokes other people's feelings. You don't care what they do, it's none of your business.

I suppressed my words, and changed my rhetoric, "You still have to pay attention to your body, anyway, the body is the capital of the revolution."

I watched the salt water drop by drop from the infusion bottle, and slowly lowered my tone.

Chen Jiu followed my infusion bottle and looked at me, "Well, that's right."

...

Uh, my cold is really an accident.

***

The two bottles of intravenous drip were quickly finished. I followed Chen Jiu to the hospital parking lot to pick up his car. His car was the black business Mercedes that his assistant drove last time.

When I stood by the passenger door, I really hesitated for two seconds whether to sit in the front or the back, and finally opened the passenger door.

"address?"

"18, Building 504, Nanyuan North District..." I blurted out, and then realized that there was no need to report such details.

"Ah."

Chen Jiu buckled up his seat belt, and I followed suit.

"Do you want to adjust the navigation?" I kindly reminded.

"Need not."

As Chen Jiu said, he turned the steering wheel with one hand and reversed the car, looking very familiar with it.

"When did you learn how to drive?" I took my eyes off his hands and looked at the windshield in front of me and asked.

"Junior summer vacation."

It was the time when I just left Jiangzhou, after Chen Jiu said this, the car fell into silence.

I looked sideways at the car window, trying to find his reflection on the window in the night.

Meeting Chen Jiu today was really a coincidence, and being able to share a closed private space was completely beyond my expectations. I wanted to ask a lot and wanted to say a lot, but I didn't know which sentence to say when it came to my mouth.

After passing a few traffic lights on the hospital side, Chen Jiu suddenly said, "Do you want to learn to drive?"

I came back to my senses and hurriedly replied, "Yeah, isn't it convenient to always take a taxi when going out?"

"I'll send you the contact information of the driving school later."

"Yeah, that's great.

Thank you, I am worried about which one to apply for. "

...

I sniffed, and at the moment when my nose was clear, I smelled the scent of Chen Jiu in the small space.

When I tried to sniff again, my nose was blocked again.

I wiped my nose with a tissue on my side, but my nose didn't live up to it, and I couldn't smell anything, so I had to resign myself to sitting upright.

But there is always an end to the twists and turns of a road. No matter how greedy I am for this short stolen journey, when I see the iconic buildings near my home, I know I am going home.

To my home alone.

Chen Jiu turned the steering wheel around the road and drove into the community. When he reached Building 18, he stopped.

I unbuckled my seat belt, it was getting late, otherwise I could find an excuse to ask him to sit up.

"Thank you for today."

I say it sincerely.

"You're welcome."

Chen Jiu took out the cigarette case from the storage box in front of the car while talking.

"You... have an upset stomach?"

"fine."

He didn't light his cigarette, probably because I'm still here.

It's too outlandish.

"Smoking is bad for your health," I thought for a while, and then said, "Would you like to sit up and drink some hot water?"

"no need."

He declined my invitation.

"Then go home early and rest."

After saying this, I opened the door and got out of the car.
