There is a bluestone platform at the base of the courtyard wall outside the gate, covered with a simple canopy. Grandpa likes to bask in the sun, and often sits there for most of the day.After grandpa left, Jiang Xiaoxi also liked to sit there when she was not visiting the store, playing with her mobile phone and reading a book. The lazy daylight was just right, and the little happiness was the most heart-warming.

But right now, there is nothing more frightening than that man sitting on that stone platform.

Wei Qidong was dressed in a black windbreaker, with his long legs on the ground, sitting there motionless, his back leaning against the wall, his eyes fixed on the front, his face calm and unwavering.

It turned out that it was not a dream, he really came.

It was too late for Jiang Xiaoxi to go back and close the door.

"Xiaoxi." Wei Qidong stood up abruptly, leaned forward, and surprise flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Xiaoxi took two steps back, knocked his foot on a rock, and supported the door with one hand so as not to fall in embarrassment.

Wei Qidong stopped his movements abruptly, worry and pain flashed by, but he didn't move forward, he kept a forward leaning movement, stood there stiffly, and then called his name: "I don't want to go, just stand Here, don't be afraid, listen to me a few words, okay?"

Wei Qidong stopped his movements, watching Jiang Xiaoxi staggered back and slammed the door shut, and then there was another sound of the lock being slammed shut.

"I'm not going in, I'm just standing outside the door, I just want to say a few words to you." Wei Qidong repeated again, with a wry smile, how many stupid things he did to make such a good Jiang Xiaoxi become turbulent, his Reputation and sense of security have been dilapidated here in Jiang Xiaoxi, and it is easy to destroy, but remodeling cannot be completed overnight.

Jiang Xiaoxi squatted in the door, folded her arms and shook into a ball, crying silently.

The two are separated by a door, but it seems that there is a long river of water.

"I came here last night, on a speedboat." Wei Qidong also squatted down slowly, facing the door, gently stroking the cool and slippery metal with one hand, as if stroking Jiang Xiaoxi's soft hair from the air.

"I miss you very much... The company's affairs have been dealt with, and I want to come to accompany you. When you just left, I wanted to come here, but I was afraid that you would be afraid and that it would affect your treatment, so I just waited until now."

"Before last night, I was still thinking, this time I will apologize, stay with you, and make up for the harm I caused you."

He didn't sleep all night, he just sat on the cold slate and waited for the whole night, his eyes were black and blue, his clothes were messy, and he no longer had the aggressive aura of the past. On the way, the whole body exudes desperate mourning.

"But last night, I sat by the wall and saw that you turned off the lights again and never came out again. That's when I realized that the wait was so difficult, and that's how you felt when you waited at the gate of Lan Yuan that night."

"I just did one of the same things as you, and I can't stand it anymore. I have no face to apologize to you, and no face to ask you to forgive me."

He let out a long sigh, his chest was congested but he couldn't get it out.

Finally he said, "Xiaoxi, I will return the big fish to you. Trust me again."

When watching the video again, Doctor Qin keenly noticed Jiang Xiaoxi's abnormality. He was in a trance, his eyes dodged, like a chick standing on a high-altitude cliff, ready to be crushed to pieces at any time.

"Is there something wrong?" Doctor Qin asked.

Jiang Xiaoxi was a little tired, and nodded slowly: ""He...here. "

Doctor Qin understood.

From that day on, Jiang Xiaoxi hid at home and refused to go out, and even stopped running in the morning.Sometimes, like a thief, he secretly hid at the door and looked out, but Wei Qidong never appeared outside the door again, and there was no movement.

With so many things going on in the Wei family, Wei Qidong is not a person who can come and go freely, so how could he spend time on a small island with him.Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaoxi comforted himself that Wei Qidong might have left long ago.

But soon, Jiang Xiaoxi discovered that someone lived in the vacant house next door.It was a private house of the same size as Jiang Xiaoxi's house. The owner went to live in Yuncheng with his children a few years ago, and it has been vacant since then.

First, the quilt and clothes were hung to dry on the second-floor terrace, and then the messy things in the yard suddenly became orderly, and even the weeds in the gaps between the glazed tiles on the roof were pulled out.

From the platform on the second floor, the room and corridor of the next door could be seen clearly. Jiang Xiaoxi glanced curiously and saw a familiar figure.

Wei Qidong was wearing a black sweater with gray casual trousers on his lower body, his hair was loose, and his expression was calm, which was quite different from his fierce look before.

He walked to the edge of the terrace through two courtyard walls, and the straight-line distance from Jiang Xiaoxi standing there was less than ten meters.

"I've rented this place, and I'm going to live here for a while." He looked into Jiang Xiaoxi's eyes and said seriously, "Go for a run in the morning, or go wherever you want, and don't disrupt your life rhythm because of me. Xiaoxi , I don’t bother you, just treat me as an ordinary neighbor.”

"So, he really didn't bother you these few days, just being a neighbor peacefully?" Dr. Qin asked.

Jiang Xiaoxi nodded, Wei Qidong really didn't bother him, he didn't say any apology or do strange things, but he could always see him on the balcony every morning, and he would greet him with a smile and say "good morning".

"Since this person can't get around, try to ignore it, and live as you want. If he makes you feel uncomfortable, you have to express it bravely, and you have to be brave enough to refuse."

Finally, Dr. Qin asked him to take medicine and run on time, and observe for a period of time. If the condition is stable, he will continue to reduce the medicine according to the original plan.

As the end of the year draws near, people who worked and went to school outside came back one after another, and Duoyu Island gradually became lively.

Uncle Guang's small restaurant became even busier, so Xiaoxi began to come to help throughout the day. He ate at Uncle Guang's house at noon, and sometimes went fishing with fishermen. His life was very fulfilling.

Jiang Xiaoxi also started running into Wei Qidong on various occasions.

The running time in the morning is fixed, from 06:30 to 07:30, Jiang Xiaoxi will come out of the house, do simple stretching, and run against the road around the island.

They would often meet in a small street corner park. Wei Qidong ran clockwise, wearing a gray windbreaker with a quick-drying jacket with a half-high collar exposed. Just looking at his appearance, he was really impeccable, even a run would attract the island of morning exercise. People stopped to inquire.

When we met for the first time, Jiang Xiaoxi was too focused on listening to the song, until a shadow caged towards him and said "Morning", he didn't realize who that person was, before his brain and body had time to react, that person ran sideways In the past, the figure disappeared soon, leaving Jiang Xiaoxi messy in the wind.

When he started running again, Jiang Xiaoxi paid special attention to the front. If Wei Qidong was running from a distance, he would lower his head and dodge to the side, pretending not to see, and wait for someone to pass before he started on the road.

Probably Wei Qidong noticed this, in order not to make things difficult for him, when he was about to meet again, Wei Qidong would go around first, and waited for Jiang Xiaoxi to run past with his head down before running back to the road around the island.Now, I just took a look from a distance, and didn't even need to say "morning".

If the temperature is low in the morning and the stretching is not sufficient, it is easy to cramp.Coupled with Jiang Xiaoxi's recent running addiction, the intensity and distance are increasing, and he suddenly got caught halfway.His calf was twisted and twisted into a lump, which caused him to squat on the grassy slope by the roadside and couldn't move for a long time.

"Cramp?" An anxious voice suddenly sounded in my ear.Wei Qidong didn't know when he came. He half-kneeled on the grass, supported Jiang Xiaoxi's knee socket with one hand, and grabbed Jiang Xiaoxi's sole with the other hand and lifted it up.He didn't think it was dirty, he grabbed the sole of the shoe with his hands, raised his head and said, "Push your toes up hard."

He was still wearing the same running clothes, there were fine beads of sweat on his temples and forehead, and he even had a little wheezing in his throat. A person who was not messed up when he was exercising, was kneeling on the ground and grabbing Jiang Xiaoxi's shoes indifferently. The only thing he seemed to care about in his eyes was whether the cramps hurt or not.

It still hurts, Jiang Xiaoxi gritted his teeth and gasped.Wei Qidong saw that he couldn't do it, and he didn't care about his previous scruples. He half hugged Jiang Xiaoxi's waist and straightened his body, letting him lean on his shoulder with strength, and then went to rub his calf.

"Straighten your calves, put your heels on the ground, lift your toes up, and use your strength." As he spoke, he freed his right hand to rub the twisted lumps on Jiang Xiaoxi's legs. "In the future, you need to stretch your feet when you run, otherwise you won't have cramps during the day. I also smoke at night when I sleep, and it hurts more at that time.

Jiang Xiaoxi was sweating from the pain, and finally healed. He pushed Wei Qidong hard, and he staggered back a few steps before he managed to stand still.

Wei Qidong was not annoyed, his eyes fixed on Jiang Xiaoxi's face, and he said after a long time: "I didn't mean to disturb you, but you have cramp, so you can't ignore it."

His knees and trousers were still stained with grass juice and mud, and his palms were also black. He looked in a good mood at the moment, so he didn't say anything more. He waved with Jiang Xiaoxi, said "goodbye", and turned to leave Before going to bed, he said "soak your feet in hot water before going to bed at night", and then ran away.
