Misha

09

Diao Chuanxia woke up from her grandmother's yelling.

I dragged myself back to my hometown exhausted, and my heart was full of emotions. Every step I took seemed to be stepping on the tip of a knife, and my heart was crushed by some invisible external force.

I thought I would suffer from insomnia, but I didn’t. The temperature in the countryside is low, and there are signs of early winter. There is no air conditioner in the house. Grandma spread an electric blanket under his bed. The temperature outside the bed is cold. Diao Chuanxia’s frozen heart In the warmth of his back, he gradually relaxed.

After this sleep, I slept until the sun was up.

Grandma hunched her back, holding a large pancake just out of the pan with her skinny wrinkled hands, and two freshly peeled eggs were placed on it.Sitting on the wooden chair, Diao Chuanxia swallowed without interest, took two mouthfuls and blew the hot air from the edge of the cake.

"Spent the winter here?" Grandma asked.

"Yeah." Diao Chuanxia nodded, "Accompany grandma for the Spring Festival."

Grandma put the plastic vegetable-picking basin by her feet, picked up a long bean, and chopped off the head and tail: "Why did you come back alone?"

Diao Chuanxia didn't make a sound, just focused on eating.

"The red plum blossoms on the river bank are in bloom. If you are in a bad mood, go there and sit down. Just come back for dinner on time." After saying this, grandma focused on the movements of her hands and stopped talking.

When she is bored, Diao Chuanxia often sits wrapped in a down jacket and sits on a smooth stone surface, looking at the frozen Hongmei River in front of her for a while, and then turning around to look at the red plum trees on the bank.

This stone not only carries his past, but also the memory of a kiss between him and Qi Yushi.

That kiss was different, special, and important, so much so that it overwhelmed what should have been an unforgettable childhood memory.

These days, Diao Chuanxia has been living in a vacuum, with her mobile phone constantly turned off, cutting off all contact with the outside world, and hiding in the countryside alone to heal her emotional wounds.

When he recalled the years of dating with Qi Yushi, he found that he couldn't find anything wrong with the other party. He racked his brains to find something that could be used as a complaint to persuade himself not to be nostalgic and obsessed, no less than an egg It's even tougher than that to nitpick.

Qi Yushi is so good, so good that Diao Chuanxia can only reflect more and more on whether his behavior is making trouble for no reason.I left in a hurry, failed to greet the HR department to handle resignation, and did not find a familiar person to hand over so many trivial matters in my hand. There was a pile of documents in the office that I wanted to bring back too late to clean up, so that it seemed like the past four years. The life in Haijin has become a vain deep in his memory. Four years ago, he walked away with a few clothes, and four years later, he took a few clothes and fled in embarrassment. He didn't catch anything, and left nothing behind. .

Will Qi Yushi blame himself?Will he understand what he's doing?

Diao Chuanxia couldn't stop thinking about these issues in his head, even though the reality told him that these things had become a thing of the past, don't pursue it anymore, think hard, since he has chosen a new path to start a new one, he must be brave.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, Diao Chuanxia leaned against her grandma's body, with her palms facing outwards, and grilled her hands over a charcoal fire.After hesitating again and again, he turned on the phone, and after waiting for a while, WeChat began to scroll down the content, simply counting, at least one or two hundred.

It's all from Qi Yushi.

Diao Chuanxia didn't click on Qi Yushi's dialog box until the WeChat notification tone ended. The last message was sent at the end of January, more than half a month ago.

The content reads: The flowers sent this morning are your favorite pink carnations.

Diao Chuanxia almost bit his tongue to bleed, so he trembled and didn't let himself go back to Qi Yushi's WeChat.

What is Qi Yushi doing at this moment?

Probably the family is celebrating the Spring Festival happily. Is it three or four?

Diao Chuanxia could control the movements of his hands, but he couldn't control his inner thoughts.

He fulfilled Qi Yushi's family, and also needed Qi Yushi to fulfill his cruelty.

So Diao Chuanxia hopes to see Qi Yushi say some cruel words to aggravate his desire to separate, but Qi Yushi won't, even the content of this last message seems to be coaxing.

what to do?Diao Chuanxia buried her head, hid her tears, and wept softly with the sound of the Spring Festival Gala program on the TV.

Fortunately, after that, I didn't receive any more messages from Qi Yushi.

After the Spring Festival, the spirit of spring sprouted in the thin snow. Diao Chuanxia packed his suitcases, looked at several recruiting units, and rented a small house in a nearby compromise location, a one-bedroom house with an area of ​​[-] square meters, enough for him to live in.

I hugged and said goodbye to grandma. Before leaving, I don't know if it was Diao Chuanxia's hallucinations, or grandma really said that sentence.

"The two of you will come back together next time."

At the beginning of spring, Diao Chuanxia joined a company mainly engaged in recruitment as an administrative assistant. He was dizzy with a bunch of data and reports all day long. Every time he finished, he would be picked out by the manager to make a few mistakes and come back to redo. He often worked overtime until In the middle of the night, I also forgot to eat.

The night outside the window could not find light, and occasionally the sound of cars speeding down the road could be heard, making the empty office even more desolate.Diao Chuanxia leaned against the back of the chair, staring at the ceiling in a daze, the night is the most memorable, so at this moment, Qi Yushi's figure is passing through his mind.

After a busy season of spring in this way, Diaochuan Xia reunited with the midsummer of Qingchuan City for a long time.

The summer in Haijin is stuffy and damp with the humidity from the coast.Although Qingchuan is hot, at least the wind in the shade is clean and refreshing.Diao Chuanxia got into the elevator in the scorching heat and kept shaking his shirt. After a short period of physical cooling, he returned to the office and was finally rescued. He squinted his eyes and stood under the air conditioner to blow.

The phone vibrated in the pocket of her tight jeans, and her thighs were numb from the shock. Diao Chuanxia tilted her body and took it out to open the screen. Surprisingly, it was the female minister of the Ministry of Literature and Art.

Seeing her message, Diao Chuanxia was stunned for a moment, an unspeakable emotion welled up in her heart, she couldn't tell whether it was emotion or melancholy.After graduating for more than four years, the members of the student union went their separate ways, and occasionally contacted, that is, a few people who were familiar with at that time, and the female minister played a major role in it.

One year at the book fair, I happened to meet her, and learned during the chat that she was going abroad to study in graduate school.Diao Chuanxia looked at the content of the message, "Come out to get together?", thinking that he should have read it and came back.

I clicked out a few words with my fingertips and pressed to send them before I realized it. Did the female minister contact Qi Yushi?

Even if we contacted, Qi Yushi was in Haijin, so he probably wouldn't make a special trip just because of a class reunion.

- you and the president aren't together?Why can't you come and he can't?

Diao Chuanxia's body was chilled by this question, and found that this information had a better cooling effect than the air conditioner.

Then came another one.

-Eat at the same place at seven o'clock tomorrow night.

"Old place" refers to the famous hot pot restaurant at the back door of Qingchuan University that they often go to. No matter what the name is, they will basically have a dinner there when they are in school. Fight tickets.

-great, see you tomorrow.

Knowing that Qi Yu would not go, Diao Chuanxia temporarily settled down, adjusted his state immediately, and entered the crazy work mode.

After get off work the next day, Diao Chuanxia didn't have time to go home and change clothes, so she chose a red plaid shirt and dark brown trimming trousers in the morning, and used pomade to create a neat and elegant hairstyle.In fact, before the selection, he accidentally tried on the wine red shirt that Qi Yushi liked, and it fit unexpectedly well. Confused, he weighed it and lost a full ten catties.

Diao Chuanxia sighed helplessly when she lost her weight when she returned to college.

In order to prevent sweating in the subway and ruining his well-dressed clothes, Diao Chuanxia took a taxi to the back gate of Qingchuan University, and sorted out his mood a little on the way.

He must be prepared. Even if Qi Yu doesn't come from time to time, it will be the focus of the party. Fortunately, only the female minister knows about their relationship. A little uncomfortable.

Don't be deliberate, just be natural.After Diao Chuanxia comforted herself, she exhaled and pushed open the door. There were a few unfamiliar and familiar faces sitting at the big round table closest to the door.

"Chuan Xia is finally here." One of the girls waved at him, Diao Chuanxia frantically rummaged through his mind as he walked, and finally found the corresponding identity of this face, which was a member of the Department of Literature and Art.

Diao Chuanxia smiled politely, and poured another sentence into his left ear: "Why do you still have a baby face after four or five years?"

The word "baby face" is still fresh in my memory, so Diao Chuanxia recognized the deputy head of the Propaganda Department by ear.

The female minister patted the seat next to her: "Sit here."

Diao Chuanxia is the worst at choosing seats. He is not good at communicating with people, and he does not take the initiative to create topics. He usually takes two steps when he is rescued, and quickly sits in his seat. He nods and greets everyone at the table.

He pricked up his ears to listen to the people at the dinner table exchanging their experiences in the workplace, some were showing off, some were just stating, and more were making fun of each other. Of course, recalling the time in college is also an indispensable part, and it should be regarded as their eternal gathering Theme of.

During their conversation, Diao Chuanxia followed the evoked memories and recalled the details of college life. From the beginning to the end along the timeline, every scale on the horizontal axis has Qi Yushi.

As I listened, the sounds around me faded away, my consciousness fluctuated, and my throat felt dry and tight. I thought that I could use intensive work to dilute the miss of Qi Yushi, and let the exhaustion drive me to go home after work and go to bed and sleep, but Once there is a little memory about Qi Yushi, it will be beaten back to its original shape.

Diao Chuanxia pinched her pale fingertips red one by one, falling into deep miss for Qi Yushi.

"President!" The female minister shouted.

Suddenly interrupting his thoughts, he heard the boss at the door yelling "Oh, who is this, it really hasn't changed at all", Diao Chuanxia raised his head in shock, watching the tall and thin figure getting closer and closer to him, His eye sockets were getting more and more swollen, and his heartbeat was so fast that he was a little hypoxic.

Qi Yushi went back to his freshman hairstyle, and Diao Chuanxia caught sight of his casual attire, giving him the illusion that he was still in college.

"Is everything okay?" Qi Yu greeted them with a smile.

"That's definitely not as good as you, successful people." The basketball team captain punched him in the chest.

Looking around, there are more or less things on the other empty chairs, only Diao Chuanxia's side is left empty.Before, Diao Chuanxia thought that the female minister let him sit next to her because of her high EQ to take care of herself, but now that she thinks about it, she really has ulterior motives.

When Qi Yushi sat down, Diao Chuanxia pursed his lips and didn't know what to say. The performance of the whole table was very good, only he was very rigid.

It seems a bit too deliberate.

Just when he was about to speak, the back of his neck was covered with heat. When Diao Chuanxia looked at Qi Yu in a daze, he suddenly heard him say, "Have you been drinking?"

"No." Diao Chuanxia tried his best to look natural, "Poured a glass and left it, without moving."

Qi Yushi picked it up and sighed: "I'm late and keep everyone waiting, I will punish myself."

"The president is still good at drinking." Someone applauded applaudingly.

Diao Chuanxia has been eating the dishes on the plate without saying a word.

It took me a long time to recover, and I found that the amount of food on the plate was only increasing.Qi Yushi occasionally chatted with others, and occasionally lowered his head and said in Diao Chuanxia's ear: "Eat more, you've lost weight."

Patronizing in a daze, he didn't realize that there was an extra hand on his waist, so he froze and didn't move any more. He listened honestly to a table of people chatting, and searched for Qi Yu's unforgettable voice.

Full of wine and food, the group wanted to sing, but Qi Yushi refused.

He transferred a sum of money to the female minister, and threatened to invite everyone for the second half. He was tone-deaf and drank alcohol, and his feet fluttered, so he wouldn't cause trouble for them.

The female minister had a smirk on her face knowingly, with a familiar expression and a familiar tone: "Don't work too hard."

Qi Yushi raised an eyebrow at her.

Diao Chuanxia originally wanted to go with the female minister, but before he could move his legs, Qi Yushi turned around by holding his collar and walked towards the opposite side of the road.

It wasn't too late, circles of light fell on the road at equal distances, Qi Yushi's face flickered, Diao Chuanxia took a step behind him, unable to look away obsessively.

After walking for a distance, the corner has a wide view, and it is a five-star hotel.

"Yu Shi." Diao Chuanxia called to stop him, "I, I have to go home."

Qi Yushi turned around and looked at him, took a step forward, and rubbed the fine hair on his forehead: "Chuan Xia, don't you miss me?"

Thinking, scratching your heart and lungs, thinking about it day and night, but thinking about it, once you step back into your field, the half a year you have survived so hard will be forfeited.

"I don't want to." Diao Chuanxia turned his head away.

"Duplicity." Qi Yushi took his hand and led him to his place, "I only listen to the answer in your heart."

The moment the hotel door was locked, Diao Chuanxia knew that there was really no way out for that night.

The familiar smell of each other bumped into the nostrils, and the desire that could not be suppressed when eating, became more and more inflated in the quiet space at this moment, and the heartbeat was so fast that it made people dizzy.Qi Yushi kissed the person in his arms that he was thinking about day and night, and he could do a complete set of movements with ease without turning on the lights. By the time the two of them fell on the bed together, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

Diao Chuanxia was covered in sweat, his body was in a mess, his consciousness was hazy, his eyelids were fighting, and Qi Yu was whispering incessantly in his ears.He couldn't hear what he said specifically, but he only knew that a pair of arms were always around his waist, and he fell asleep in this overly comfortable and comfortable feeling after a while.

He was awakened by the dazzling morning light.

Focusing his gaze, he woke up quickly, and the messy floor caught his eyes. Diao Chuanxia was stunned for a moment, breathing regularly with Qi Yushi beside him.

He resisted the soreness all over his body, went into the toilet to wash up carelessly, changed his clothes and sat by the bed, his eyes were hot, he wanted to touch Qi Yushi's face, but he held back.

Diao Chuanxia remembered Xiao Qing's words, dreams begin in summer.So the person in front of him is like a magnificent dream in his life, even if he no longer has the courage, no matter how difficult it is to leave, he still has to endure the heartache and has no choice but to break up decisively.

Diao Chuanxia walked along the road step by step, his eyes stared forward blankly, and kept asking questions in his mind, how is Qi Yushi doing during this time?Has the relationship with the family been reconciled?And Lin Wanhui...

never mind.Diao Chuanxia's eyes were red, and his fingernails made a few marks on his palms so that he could distract himself from the pain and stop thinking about it. He had to pack up his mind and face life again.

Shuttle in the bustling campus of Qingchuan University, today is the day for freshmen to report.

Diao Chuanxia walked past the dormitory building and saw many familiar scenery along the way. He couldn't help but imagine Qi Yushi's figure in each scenery, so vivid and bright.

He was running around like a headless chicken, without direction or purpose.Walking around the campus again and again, for some reason, sadness suddenly surged out. Diao Chuanxia quickly squatted down, hugged her knees, and cried loudly.

He misses Qi Yushi.

He couldn't take it anymore.

I don't know how long I cried until my eye sockets hurt, I cried until my body and mind were exhausted, and I cried until the pain could be temporarily relieved by weakness. Diao Chuanxia showed a pair of red eyes, staring at her toes, and a touch of red came into her eyes.

At some point, a hand-woven red rope appeared on the left ankle, and a stone that looked like a heart was tied to the red rope.

"Keep it as a souvenir and use it to marry you later."

When he missed Qi Yu, his emotion suddenly disappeared. Diao Chuanxia raised his head. He wanted to stand up, run back to the hotel, and never let go when he wanted to hug Qi Yu.

There was a man standing against the light across the road.

Looking at each other, the man smiled and walked towards Diao Chuanxia slowly.

Diao Chuanxia was stunned in place, raised his head slightly following the approaching figure of the man, looked at Qi Yushi's clear and deep eyes, and blinked vigorously.

"Why are you crying?" Qi Yushi rubbed the skin under his eyes with his fingertips, "Diamonds will definitely be bought for you, we have money."

In a second, Diao Chuanxia tilted her head and suppressed a smile with tears in her eyes.

Qi Yushi tightly bound him into his arms.

"Your way of 'thinking about me' won't work, go another way." Qi Yushi buried the tip of his nose in Diao Chuanxia's hair, and took a deep breath, "Follow me and stop running around, okay?"

Diao Chuanxia nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

The two hugged each other for a long time, ignoring that this was their alma mater. When Diao Chuanxia heard the discussion, she wanted to push Qi Yu away, but she couldn't push it away, so she had to give up.

"You came to the class reunion, what should you do if you miss work?" He asked in a low voice.

"I'm not here to attend the class reunion." Qi Yushi patted him on the back, the heat of his palm was comforting, "I'm here to go home with you."

Diao Chuanxia frowned and looked at him: "What...what do you mean?"

"It means that I am unemployed, and I have to start from scratch again. Before I find a job, I have to rely on you to support me." Qi Yushi took Diao Chuanxia's hand and walked towards the main entrance of Qingchuan University.

The "Nongjiashushe" project has been launched and is proceeding step by step. Qi Yushi has fulfilled Diao Chuanxia's wish, so naturally he has no regrets.

He knew that without Diao Chuanxia's Haijin, he would not be able to stay for a moment.

Diao Chuanxia sniffed: "Then, what about uncles and aunts? Will they be angry with you?"

"Anger is temporary, but love is forever." Qi Yushi turned his head and looked at Diao Chuanxia, ​​the sun was shining from behind him, with a gentle smile in the corner of his eyes, "The future is long, let's work hard slowly."

Another year of sweetened summer, but sweeter than the past seven years, Diao Chuanxia looked at Qi Yushi, as if ushering in a new beginning, and as if they had never been separated in the past.
