Qiu Mu

Li Jing walked downstairs to Ling Xia's house almost uncontrollably, the wind gradually picked up, and he could hear the sound of the balcony of Ling Xia's house being blown up by the wind.

How can people live in such a dilapidated attic?Li Jing looked at Ling Xia's residence in a daze, and didn't realize that the strong wind had messed up her long hair.

What was Ling Xia doing at the moment, Li Jing looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, maybe she had already fallen asleep, Li Jing's slender figure stood in the wind, the wind that was approaching midnight was a bit chilly.

Li Jing suddenly didn't know why he was standing here, maybe he wanted to see Ling Xia, maybe he didn't want to go home, since he just came out of Zhang's house, he always needed to calm down.Li Jing stood for a while, then turned around and was about to leave.

"Manager Li." Ling Xia's sudden cry stopped her in her footsteps, Li Jing turned her head, Ling Xia walked towards him from the door with a smile, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and said: "Here for you."

"How do you know I'm here?" Li Jing took the piece of paper in Ling Xia's hand with some surprise, but Ling Xia said with a smile: "I saw you upstairs." At that moment, Ling Xia felt unspeakably joyful, if she hadn't just stepped out of the room to check the weather, would she have missed the moment when Li Jing was standing downstairs.

She was afraid that Li Jing would walk away, so she quickly returned to the room, picked up a copy of Li Jing, and ran downstairs. Seeing Li Jing's back, she summoned up the courage to stop her.

"I didn't expect that you would copy it." Li Jing looked at the drawing Ling Xia had given him, the piece of paper was flapping in the wind, Li Jing was afraid that it would be blown away by the wind, so he hurriedly put it away, Ling Xia smiled shyly , Said: "Do you want to go up and sit down, it's just that the place is a little small."

"No, it's late, there might be a typhoon in a while, you have to be careful." Li Jing looked at the old house with some worry, worried that this place would not be able to withstand the typhoon, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It's okay, I've fixed the windows and doors with cardboard boxes, so the wind shouldn't blow in." Ling Xia said with a relaxed expression.

"Fix it with a cardboard box?" Li Jing asked back, unconsciously glanced upstairs again, Ling Xia saw Li Jing's worry, and said, "It's really fine, Manager Li, you should go back quickly, it's so windy."

"Okay, then take care of yourself, call me if you have something to do." Li Jing patted Ling Xia's shoulder, Ling Xia nodded, and watched Li Jing disappear from his eyes.

It seemed that she was in a good mood, Li Jing's appearance surprised and delighted Ling Xia, as to why she was so happy, she didn't know why, so she didn't think too much about it.

At night, the wind howled and the rain drifted.

The rain beat against the glass, making a heavy ding-dong sound, and even inside the room, you could hear the howling wind outside.

Li Jing is used to going to bed late, reading Weibo before going to bed, reading some articles, playing soft music, and a glass of red wine next to her. The habit of living alone for many years makes her like to listen to loneliness in the middle of the night.

Walking to the floor-to-ceiling windows and opening the curtains, the night that could be seen outside the house has been invaded by the violent wind and rain, and the vision on the windows is also blurred, and faint lights in the distance can be vaguely seen.

Holding the red wine in his hands, Li Jing looked out of the window and was a little absent-minded. He heard the strong wind howling outside, the branches were bent, and the rain was so heavy that he couldn't see the outside clearly, as if it had been fogged.Li Jing looked out the window, thought of something, had a bad feeling, she quickly put down the red wine, put on her coat, took the car keys and went out.

The rain was so heavy that even the windshield wipers didn't have time to clear the downpour. Li Jing could only drive the car slowly, feeling anxious and holding the steering wheel with a little force. When he was nervous, he picked up the phone and dialed it.

Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unanswered.....

Li Jing dropped the phone in his hand a little irritatedly, let out a breath, calmed down his emotions, and drove the car forward calmly.

I don't know why the short distance is so far now. When we arrived at the place, Li Jing just opened the car door when he was blinded by the wind. In an instant, his whole body was wet by the rain.

Li Jing pulled his clothes, blocked the rainwater on his forehead with one hand, and shouted loudly: "Ling Xia, Ling Xia...", no one responded, in such an environment, no matter how loud it is, Being engulfed in the torrential rain, Li Jing did not give up. He walked to the door and wanted to knock on it, but found that the door had been blown open by the wind.

The strong wind seemed to sweep everything, the wooden door was shaken back and forth by the wind, and the leaves on the trees were covered with accumulated water floating on the ground.

Li Jing stepped forward quickly and walked into the house. She had never entered, but just stood outside the door.Dilapidated stairs, piled up with worn-out furniture, rusty or even moldy materials everywhere, and useless things piled up in the aisle.

"Ling Xia, Ling Xia..." Li Jing called Ling Xia's name while avoiding the piles in the aisle.The house has been in disrepair for a long time, maybe the drainage pipe is not smooth, and the water has reached the steps. Li Jing couldn't help shivering from the cold, gritted his teeth, and continued to walk forward.After all kinds of difficulties, Li Jing finally reached the attic. The small wooden door of the attic was not closed tightly. Li Jing straightened her already wet hair and gently pushed the door open.

Li Jing will never forget the scene in front of her for the rest of her life, and her heart is twisted and uncomfortable when she witnesses everything in front of her.The windows of Ling Xia's room were broken by the wind a long time ago, and the rainwater directly entered the room, and too much water accumulated on the balcony outside flooded into the house. There was hardly a clean place in the [-]-square-meter hut. The rainwater flowed along the windows and the roof. The door was knocked in, and it was like raining inside the house.

Ling Xia was squatting in the corner with an umbrella, holding a bag in his hand, the umbrella protected the bag in his hand from the rain, but his clothes were already soaked, maybe she was too scared, her curled up body was trembling , The umbrella blown by the strong wind has been blown almost unable to hold.

When Li Jing stepped into the house, his feet were like stepping into a shallow pond, he didn't care about his own cold, he didn't care about his feet stepping in the stagnant water, Li Jing walked up to Ling Xia, stretched out his hand, and hugged him Ling Xia's shoulder called softly: "Ling Xia."

Although the voice was very soft, so soft that Ling Xia could hardly hear it, but Ling Xia was surrounded by the warmth of being touched. She turned her head and looked at Li Jing in front of her in disbelief. She looked at herself with pity. She was originally beautiful and glamorous. There was a touch of tenderness on her face, and her long hair, which had been beaten by the rain, hung weakly on her temples.

Looking at Li Jing, Ling Xia couldn't speak for a long time, but in an instant, tears came to the corners of her eyes, she wanted to try her best to endure her disappointment.Li Jing supported Ling Xia's shoulder, raised his voice slightly and said: "Follow me." After speaking, he took Ling Xia's hand, Ling Xia didn't refuse, and let Li Jing lead him.

"Manager Li, be careful, there are sundries on the ground." Ling Xia worriedly said to Li Jing, but Li Jing didn't care at all, stepping into the cold stagnant water with high heels, a chill rose up on his body, Ling Xia clearly felt it Li Jing's hands were cold.

"I can go up, and I can go down. You should also be careful, let's go down slowly together." Li Jing smiled and turned to Ling Xia and said something to Ling Xia, but at the last step, he couldn't see the flat ground and stepped on the air.A burst of intense pain hit, Li Jing's expression twisted instantly, but he adjusted quickly, turned his head, and said to Ling Xia: "Be careful, this is the last step, don't step on the air." Ling Xia nodded He walked carefully, and walked to the flat ground safely, without noticing anything strange about Li Jing.

Every time she took a step, intense pain hit Li Jing's ankle. She resisted the pain and did not show.Walking outside the door, Li Jing took off his windbreaker and covered himself and Ling Xia's heads, one arm hooked Ling Xia's shoulder, Ling Xia curled up in Li Jing's thin arms, and walked with Li Jing through the storm middle.

After getting into the car, Li Jing immediately turned on the air conditioner, fearing that Ling Xia would be freezing, so he turned the heater to the maximum, blowing on Ling Xia, but he broke out in a cold sweat because of the pain mixed with the pain in his feet. Enduring the pain, he still started the car. the car.

"Manager Li, why did you come here? How come..." Ling Xia really wanted to ask why Li Jing knew that such a thing would happen to her. At that time, she only wanted to protect her precious albums and manuscripts, and never thought about it. Someone would suddenly appear by her side in the future, and she never expected that it would be Li Jing who appeared when she needed someone the most.

"I didn't protect you well last time, so I won't leave you alone this time." Li Jing thought in his heart, but he just smiled softly at Ling Xia and didn't say anything. He continued to drive, looking at Li Jing like this, Ling Xia Xia was indescribably touched, she wondered if Li Jing not only regarded her as a colleague, maybe they were considered friends?But Ling Xia didn't know how to convince herself that she and Li Jing had friendship between friends.

"Xiao Xia, call me by my name when I'm not working." Li Jing added another sentence. She really didn't want to hear Ling Xia's unfamiliar and official "Manager Li" outside of work. harsh.

"Okay, Li Jing...Miss Jing." Ling Xia called out very unaccustomed to it, Li Jing looked at Ling Xia in surprise after hearing this, and responded happily.

Finally, I drove to Li Jing's residence. When I got out of the car, Li Jing's left foot had just touched the ground. Due to the pain, he couldn't stand still and almost fell. Ling Xia rushed forward, supported Li Jing, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ?”

"I sprained my ankle just now, it's okay, you support me." Li Jing said while enduring the pain, she couldn't tell whether it was sweat or rain on her forehead, Ling Xia's heart suddenly started to ache, she could clearly feel her heart beating a little Unlike usual, she hurriedly adjusted her breathing, for fear that she would get sick anytime.

This is Ling Xia's first time stepping into Li Jing's house. The decoration of the house is unique, not luxurious but exquisite. The whole house is about 120㎡, so it seems a bit empty to live alone.

Li Jing gave Ling Xia his own clothes, and asked Ling Xia to take a shower first, but he supported the wall and struggled to take out ice cubes from the refrigerator, wrapped another towel, and applied a cold compress to the sprained area.

"Sister Jing, let's see a doctor, you are so serious." Ling Xia came out of the bathroom again and said, Li Jing raised his head to look at Ling Xia with one hand on his foot, and said, "Why did you come out again? Hurry up and wash and return the clothes."

"You haven't washed yourself, haven't changed your clothes yet, I'll support you, it's inconvenient for you." Ling Xia had no words from Li Jing, so he ran over to help Li Jing after speaking, Li Jing shook his head helplessly, and said: " Okay, okay, I'll wash, so, you go to the small bathroom to take a shower, help me put the water in the big bathroom, and I'll just take a bath, okay?"

"Okay." Ling Xia walked towards the bathroom with a smile, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Jing's mouth.

The foot injury gradually became swollen, Li Jing looked at her feet helplessly, and sighed, knowing that for a long time, she could no longer wear high heels.

Ling Xia looked at Li Jing's feet, and immediately blamed himself, if it wasn't for looking for him, Li Jing wouldn't have hurt his feet, so he took Li Jing's hand and said: "Go to the hospital, you can't drag it like this, cold compress It’s not a cure for the symptoms.”

"It's windy and rainy outside, I can't drive, how can I get there?" Li Jing said to Ling Xia unmoved.

"Then let's take a taxi, I'll call the taxi number." Ling Xia was about to take out his mobile phone, but Li Jing hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, saying: "I promise you, go to the hospital tomorrow, okay, it's too late now." Li Jing Jing said in a compromising tone, then Ling Xia put down the phone, worriedly held Li Jing's feet with his hand, and watched carefully.

Li Jing looked at the focused Ling Xia, and didn't understand where her usual aloofness and indifference had gone, but following Ling Xia like this, she felt a little happy in her heart, even she couldn't figure it out.It's just that this cold big house suddenly made her feel warm.

"Xiao Xia, can you stay here with me for the time being?" Li Jing suddenly said to Ling Xia, Ling Xia raised his head and looked at Li Jing, he didn't know what to say for a moment, hesitating how to reject Li Jing, but then Hearing Li Jing say: "Look at my feet, I can't take care of myself, can you bear it?" Seeing the change in Ling Xia's expression after speaking, she knew that Ling Xia would find a way to reject her, and the only way to persuade her to stay Only for this reason.Li Jing knew that Ling Xia's house could no longer be lived in. If it hadn't been for such a weather, Ling Xia would not have accepted anyone's help.

"Then, I'll take care of you, I'm really sorry, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have been hurt." Ling Xia said with guilt, but Li Jing hurriedly said: "Xiao Xia, don't apologize, I was not careful." After finishing speaking Holding Ling Xia's shoulders, Ling Xia suddenly stepped forward and hugged Li Jing.

Li Jing was overwhelmed by Ling Xia's sudden actions. For a moment, everything seemed to stand still. Ling Xia hugged Li Jing and said, "Thank you, sister Jing." Thousands of words Ling Xia turned into these three Facing Li Jing, she was at a loss for words. Even though she usually likes to write and embellishes words with gorgeous rhetoric, she can't say it now.

"Don't say thank you, be good~" Li Jing stroked Ling Xia's hair and said, maybe she had a similar state of mind, she always had an indescribable love for Ling Xia, neither of them had parents, they were both independent and strong Being alive, even if she has made some achievements now, it can't make up for the loneliness in her heart. She thinks that Ling Xia should be the person who understands her mood best, and she is also the person who understands Ling Xia's mood best.

After midnight, Li Jing arranged Ling Xia's room, poured a glass of red wine habitually, turned on the computer and browsed the web for a while, read real estate news, and browsed some forums.

Li Jing had already forgotten when he developed this habit, every night without red wine, he couldn't fall asleep, his eyes were fixed on the screen, but his eyes unconsciously glanced at the room where Ling Xia slept.It has been three years since I bought this house, except for the occasional uncle who came to see it, and Zhang Ning who came to sit there, no one else has been here, let alone stayed overnight.

Ling Xia, inexplicably, became special in her life like this, appeared very suddenly, got close very suddenly, maybe Li Jing really needed a girlfriend, a good friend.She understood very well that there are very few people as simple as Ling Xia, who are as pure as white paper, and left an impression on Li Jing from the first sight.

It was the first time to sleep in such a warm big bed, Ling Xia actually suffered from insomnia, the sheets on the bed, the sheets were all new, and the faint fragrance of Li Jing's body was faintly lingering in the drowsiness.

Is Li Jing asleep?Ling Xia thought, got up, opened the door, saw that the light in the living room was off, thought that Li Jing had already rested, so he walked towards the living room alone, but saw Li Jing standing on the balcony with a glass of red wine in his hand, the delicate There is a computer on the small wooden table.

At this moment, Li Jing's back is facing Ling Xia, looking at Li Jing's back, Ling Xia's eyes are a bit blurred, at this moment she is not wearing a hearing aid, but she seems to be able to hear the voices in Li Jing's world.

Her back is full of loneliness and strength, and her back is so beautiful.Such an excellent and almost perfect woman, what is she sad about?What has she experienced that made her so cold that people couldn't get close to her, yet she cared deeply for herself.

Ling Xia suddenly felt that Li Jing at this moment made her feel very distressed, she was like a cold and beautiful manjusawa flower, blooming to its fullest when she showed her sharpness, but behind her was endless loneliness and tenderness.

Quietly exiting the living room and walking towards her own room, Ling Xia breathed out, she knew that there was nothing absolutely fair in this world, and there was nothing absolutely unfair, just like at this moment, she couldn't hear any sound, but she listened with her heart, but listened Arrived at something different.She believes that everyone's story can be written into a book, if possible, she really wants to read the book that belongs to Li Jing, she believes that every page is wonderful.

The author has something to say: Actually, I personally like this chapter better, especially Li Jing's various performances
