Wu Wan

It has been a while since Zhao Duobao was picked up. Jiang Yi took care of his diet and daily life strictly according to the method instructed by the previous nurse. His condition did not make much progress, but his complexion improved a little.

Part of the money I took from Jiang Junqing to buy a house was spent, and the rest could not be spent in the bank. Jiang Yi was originally a quick-witted person, and his grades were not bad when he was studying, so he started thinking about other things.He originally planned to use the money as start-up capital, go to Z City to work with He Qihua for a period of time, and then develop on his own. Now that Zhao Duobao is by his side, this plan has been temporarily put on hold, but he still decided to contact He Qihua and ask Ask him about the situation in City B.He Qihua has been doing import and export trade in City B for ten years, and the contacts he has accumulated are not so easy to be uprooted.

He Qihua was imprisoned for his wife's crime, but before he was sent to prison, his wife brought a divorce agreement to see him. Only then did he know that his wife had cheated and had an affair with a foreign client.

Two people who were also emotionally frustrated also formed a friendship.

Jiang Yi dialed the number that He Qihua left him before he was released from prison, but the phone was not connected in time. After listening to the waiting tone for a while, Jiang Yi was hesitating whether to hang up, when a magnetic male voice sounded from the opposite side, "Hi, may I Who?"

"Brother Hua, I'm Jiang Yi."

After He Qihua knew about Jiang Yi's situation, he promised to introduce him to an old subordinate who followed him before he was imprisoned. Through him, Jiang Yi could get in touch with more about import and export. Jiang Yi thanked him repeatedly and said that he would definitely go to Z City in the future Thank you in person.

He Qihua smiled honestly, "Xiao Zhu has been waiting for me to follow me after I get out of prison, but the youngest of my family can't follow me in City B, so I have an explanation for him by introducing him to you. It's good that you can treat him leniently, he has been with me for almost eight years."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not treat him badly, and I will definitely have his share in the future when I do it."

"Okay! With your words, I feel relieved, and I hope your lover gets better soon."

"Well, with your good words, I will definitely come to thank you when I have the opportunity in the future."

"It's rare to fall in love with you. If I can help, I will help. My own relationship is in a mess, and I always hope that others can be happy."

"It will be fine."

"Well, I have something to do here, hang up first, and talk about it another day."

"You are busy first."

Not long after the phone was hung up, Jiang Yi received a text message from He Qihua.

Zhu Yu, 139XXXXXXXX.I told him, when you contact him, just say it's Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi said hello.

He quickly contacted him on the phone, Zhu Yuren was very easy-going, and directly made an appointment with Jiang Yi on the phone to chat face to face.

These days, Jiang Yi spends the rest of the time by Zhao Duobao's side, except for contacting him about starting a business. He can't finish talking to Zhao Duobao every day. Speaking freely, most of what I said was the words that I didn't have time to say and the three years they missed.

For example, in those days when Zhao Duobao resolutely left, how could he have trouble eating, tossing and turning, and even whispered Zhao Duobao's name in a dark night when he suddenly woke up, and then slowly woke up in the silence, And then fall into endless regret again.

For example, before being imprisoned, he knew how Zhao Duobao went from shock to anger to pain after collecting the evidence, and finally went to a complete collapse little by little.

For example, how did he spend more than 1000 repetitive and boring days and nights in prison relying on the phrase "it's not hate" that Zhao Duobao said when he saw him for the last time; The idea of ​​having a new life and not needing him anymore desperately and helplessly watched the day when he was released after serving his sentence.

For example, he wished Zhao Duobao could wait for him.

For example, he never stopped thinking about Zhao Duobao.

Like, he loves him.

Many times, Jiang Yi said that his voice choked up.

He held Zhao Duobao's hands, buried his face in them, and tears oozed from Zhao Duobao's fingers, dripping on the ground, on the sofa...

But Zhao Duobao was still like a lifeless statue, staring forward blankly with his eyes open, without any response.

"Why don't you scold me and beat me? Isn't it what you want to see when I go to jail? Why do you torture yourself like this?"

……

In this small room, Jiang Yi's sometimes affectionate, sometimes agitated, sometimes broken soliloquy echoed everywhere.

Like a madman and a poet.

A few days before Zhao Duobao was picked up, Jiang Yi held Zhao Duobao at night and couldn't close his eyes all night. Every time he waited until dawn to find that half of the pillow had been soaked.

After nearly a week of this kind of life, Jiang Yi was able to close his eyes and sleep for a while at night, but he still couldn't sleep well. As long as Zhao Duobao moved a little, he would wake up instantly, afraid that something strange would happen.

For some unknown reason last night, Zhao Duobao seemed very irritable and turned over a lot more times than before, and Jiang Yi stayed up all night because of this.

I was very sleepy after lunch today, so I lay down and took a nap with Zhao Duobao.

He lay on the bed and quickly fell asleep after holding Zhao Duobao into his arms.

This sleep can be regarded as Jiang Yi's deepest sleep since he was released from prison. When he opened his eyes again, it was already dark. The spirit is full of a lot.

However, in an instant, Jiang Yi panicked.

Zhao Duobao, who was supposed to be lying beside him, disappeared.

He forced himself to calm down, maybe Zhao Duobao just got up to go to the bathroom, he shivered and put on his shoes, and blamed himself for being so sleepy, the short ten steps from the bedroom to the bathroom was terrifying.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the bathroom, Jiang Yi's blood began to flow back all over his body, and his limbs felt cold.

Zhao Duobao is not there.

After he forced himself to calm down, his brain started spinning rapidly.

Did Zhao Duobao recover, or not?Where would he go if he didn't recover?

A series of questions popped up in Jiang Yi's mind. Before he had time to think about it, he grabbed his phone and keys and rushed out the door.

Running wildly along the road, shouting, constantly asking passers-by and roadside vendors if they have seen Zhao Duobao, such a slightly familiar scene reminded Jiang Yi of the night when Zhao Duobao was almost killed by a car a few years ago, His heart was even more flustered, and many bad thoughts and pictures had appeared in his mind uncontrollably.

Fortunately, some vendors along the road pointed out Zhao Duobao's whereabouts through Jiang Yi's description.

Jiang Yi didn't dare to stop for a moment and chased in the direction.But the more he chased him, the more he felt something was wrong. He was so busy looking for Zhao Duobao that he didn't have time to see where he was, but the surrounding environment was so familiar that he couldn't help but pay attention.

There are more and more people on the road, and it is much more difficult for Jiang Yi to find Zhao Duobao. A large number of people came to meet him. He stood at a crossroad, looked around, and did not even see Zhao Duobao. .

Jiang Yi stood there at a loss. He didn't know what state Zhao Duobao was in now. If he was still in a daze and didn't speak before, there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents in a place with such a heavy traffic volume. He didn't dare to go down Thinking about it, I glanced at the three intersections in front of me, picked the direction with the most people and ran over.

As he ran down the road, he finally understood where that strong sense of familiarity came from.

This is exactly the direction of his back door in college.

Jiang Yi was stunned, his steps stopped, his center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell, and he had to lean on the railing and bend over to pant for breath.

Why did Zhao Duobao come here?

This became the biggest question in his mind.

The vicinity of the school can be said to be the most sad place for him and Zhao Duobao. Too many irreparable and heartbreaking things happened here. If possible, he would hope never to come again.

Jiang Yi couldn't figure out how Zhao Duobao walked so far in a daze. He didn't know if similar things happened when he was in the nursing home, and he didn't know if it was because his appearance stimulated him so that he could get away. Let him return to the old place in memory.

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and went straight to the community where they lived in the last time with a heart in his heart. He found the house he had rented based on his memory, but he didn't see Zhao Duobao along the way. His heart broke and he knocked on the door .

"Who?" A voice answered from inside the room.

"May I ask if there was a boy wearing beige cotton and linen short-sleeved shorts and home clothes?" Jiang Yi asked in one breath.

"No."

Jiang Yi asked unwillingly, "Is there really not?"

"No, no." The people in the room were a little impatient, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Jiang Yi pursed his lips and said nothing, the hand that was about to knock on the door fell back to his side, and dragged down the stairs.

He still had a place to guess in his mind, but he didn't want to go, let alone actually see Zhao Duobao there - the room where they lived together for the first time.

There were some of their best and most painful memories.Where the truth is, there is also deception.The short time between them, the only time that can be regarded as love, was there.

Jiang Yi didn't dare to stop running, he was afraid that something would happen to Zhao Duobao, but every step was like stepping on the tip of a knife, which hurt his heart.

He rushed all the way to the ninth floor, knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered, and there was no sign of Zhao Duobao all the way.

Before Jiang Yi had time to breathe a sigh of relief that Zhao Duobao was not here, his heart was tightly clenched into a ball, beating in a hurry and flusteredly.

Where did Zhao Duobao go?
