Don't ask about the future

"Minister Yan, hello, I'm Gao Shengxi. I'm sorry to disturb you. It's just that the only person I can think of who can help sister Yun is you."

Hearing the anxiety in Gao Shengxi's words, Yan Wenqing immediately had a bad feeling.

"What happened to Yi Yun?"

"Chairman...she, she hugs Yuanyuan and refuses to let go, and she won't listen to anyone who persuades her. Minister Yan, can you come over and see the chairman, just for a while!"

"Don't worry, speak slowly. Is Yuanyuan sick?"

Yan Wenqing still remembered what Yi Yun said about Yuanyuan's poor medical examination results some time ago.

Gao Shengxi's tone was tinged with tears:

"Minister Yan, Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, left last night..."

The moment Yan Wenqing stepped into the Shangjing base, he could feel a depressive emotion coming from the gate.Everyone I met on the road spoke softly and walked carefully, as if they were afraid of making too much noise and disturbing someone's rest.

"Where is she?"

Yan Wenqing asked Gao Shengxi.

"The chairman is in the break room in her office. She locked herself in there for a day and a night."

Gao Shengxi's eyes were red when he spoke,

"Yuanyuan left, we were all very sad. But sister Yun didn't eat or drink, didn't cry or make noise, and didn't do anything, which was even more worrying. I went to tell her in the morning that the cremation was ready. Today You can send Yuanyuan there. She was furious and kicked me out of the house. Ever since I was a child, Sister Yun has never said a single harsh word to me. Minister Yan, I am so scared, I am afraid of her..."

Gao Shengxi couldn't continue talking about the following words, Yan Wenqing understood what she meant, and held her hand:

"I'll make her get better, don't worry. Now is when she needs you most, you can't mess up, understand?"

Gao Shengxi wiped the corners of his eyes and nodded obediently.Yan Wenqing took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

"Xiaoyun, it's me."

It was quiet inside the door, without any movement.When Yan Wenqing raised his hand again, the door opened with a "click".

In the dark interior, thick curtains blocked the sunlight outside the window, Yi Yun stood behind the door, his ghostly silhouette startled Yan Wenqing outside the door.Yan Wenqing stabilized his emotions, and said in a deep voice:

"Let me go in with you, okay?"

Yi Yun stepped aside, opened the door a little wider, and let Yan Wenqing in.

Gao Shengxi didn't dare to go far, and Hou was outside the office, anxious, so he wandered involuntarily in the corridor.Yi Yun, who was roaring loudly with red eyes, was like a lioness who had lost her cub on a rampage. This was the first time Gao Shengxi had seen her lose control of her emotions in many years.

She didn't expect Yuanyuan to occupy such an important position in Yi Yun's heart.This made her both moved and surprised. What moved her was that Yi Yun would cherish what she cherished so much; what surprised her was that she would lose her temper so much.

On that winter afternoon 12 years ago, the only chance that little Gao Shengxi thought of for help in his desperation completely changed everyone's destiny.The appearance of Yuanyuan became an accident full of turning point significance.

For Yi Yun, if Yuanyuan was saved, the matter could have come to an end.However, this young lady from a rich family who seemed not interested in anything started to help Gao Shengxi's family uninterruptedly for many years.Gao Shengxi once asked Yi Yun why he took such special care of her by "doing so much".After listening to Gao Shengxi's question, Yi Yun asked back:

"Xixi, in your image, have you ever witnessed the so-called brilliance of human nature?"

Gao Shengxi thought for a while and said:

"Sister Yun's help to me and my family, as well as the care for the rescued animals, is the only one I have ever seen."

"And all of this is due to you, Xixi, you are the root of all good causes. The greatness of human nature is all in a single thought."

This is Yi Yun's kindness to Gao Shengxi, she is the noble person in her life.Even though Gao Shengxi clearly knew that Zhang Wenzhi was the one who could bring her happiness, but the friendship for many years was the truth that Gao Shengxi kept in his heart and was above all else.Although her stubbornness was unfair to Zhang Wenzhi, she couldn't ignore Yi Yun.

"Hee Hee, go get a cup of coffee and some food."

About half an hour later, Yan Wenqing opened the door of the office and whispered instructions to Gao Shengxi who was standing outside.

"Sister Yun, she...?"

"She's fine, don't worry. It's just that she hasn't eaten for a long time, and she's not feeling well. Go and get her something to eat."

"it is good!"

It seems that calling Yan Wenqing without authorization was the right decision!A big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and Gao Shengxi trotted out all the way.

"Xixi has already contacted the staff of the funeral home. If you don't want to go, I will send Yuanyuan there with her later."

"It's okay, I can. You can't delay your work because of me."

"But I don't..."

"Since I promised you, this hurdle will be over."

The downcast in Yi Yun's tone made Yan Wenqing feel uneasy.

"I'll come back to accompany you as soon as I get off work, okay?"

"Okay." Yi Yun said softly, "Thank you, Wen Qing."

Raising his hand to support Yi Yun's haggard cheeks, Yan Wenqing said softly:

"Then you can eat something obediently now and don't worry me, okay?"

Nodding obediently, Yi Yun picked up the clear porridge Gao Shengxi sent over.After guarding Yi Yun and eating all the food, Yan Wenqing left, and before leaving, he told Gao Shengxi to pay attention to Yi Yun's mood, and then reluctantly left the door in peace.

The Lunar New Year was approaching soon, and the key inspection had just finished half a month, so there were a lot of things to do, and Yan Wenqing was very busy.What happened to Yi Yun happened suddenly, and the orderly work suddenly lost its original rhythm.There were countless ties in my heart, as if there was an invisible thread that tied Yi Yun and her together.Even the slightest emotional fluctuation of the other party can make her miss it.Time has become difficult, and space has become inexplicably narrow.Yan Wenqing seemed to be coerced by work, and stayed in the office, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.Doing things reluctantly, thinking about people elsewhere.After finally getting off work, I packed up my things at an unprecedented speed and hurried to leave.

"Minister, the documents you want!"

Sitting in the outer office was Yan Wenqing's secretary Guan Tao. Seeing Yan Wenqing holding a bag and about to leave in a hurry, he called her to stop.

"You put it on my desk, I'll see it on Monday."

"on Monday?"

"It's okay, just put it there!"

Is this still the minister in the department who handles things quickly and can only rush work and never delay?Guan Tao was so shocked by Yan Wenqing's words that his eyeballs almost fell out!

"I'll put it on the table for you. Minister... goodbye."

"See you next week."

Yan Wenqing gave the other party a running back, and quickly left the office without looking back.

It was less than a month since I visited Yi Yun's house last time, but Yan Wenqing felt like it had been a long, long time.Gently opened the door, the room was quiet, no lights were turned on, and there was no sound.After closing the door, it took two seconds to adjust to the light in the room.Only then did I see a dark figure sitting on a big cushion in the corner.That cushion was originally a small bed for Yuanyuan to sleep on.

"Xiao Yun."

Crouching beside Yi Yun, Yan Wenqing saw clearly that she was holding a small wooden box in her arms.

"Xiaoyun, it's me."

Reaching out to hold Yi Yun's face, Yan Wenqing's heart tightened.The originally handsome face was full of tears.The big eyes that are full of air are full of sadness.The red/naked/naked pain on Yi Yun's face pierced into Yan Wenqing's heart like a dagger.At that moment, she clearly realized that unconsciously, she had irretrievably fallen in love with this extremely kind, awkward, cautious, sometimes silly and innocent woman in front of her, but at the moment she was deeply in pain.

Apart from tightly hugging her and the dog that had turned into a box of ashes, Yan Wenqing couldn't think of anything to comfort Yi Yun at the moment.I felt her body trembling faintly, the wetness in her chest was expanding little by little, and silent crying was the most painful expression.

The pain in Yi Yun's heart seemed to spread to Yan Wenqing's heart through his close body, and for a moment, the pain of losing his beloved in his memory spread to Yan Wenqing's chest again.Tears slipped silently down her cheeks.The face of the person who she thought she would never forget had already been blurred in memory, and was replaced by the face of the person crouching on her chest.Yi Yun laughed loudly when he was happy, hesitated when he was confused, gentle when he was intimate, and the deep affection in his eyes every time he looked at her.All of a sudden, the word Yi Yun had been engraved into her soul like a bone marrow.

Lowering his head and pressing his lips against Yi Yun's forehead, Yan Wenqing combed her short hair with the softest kiss.Maybe it was finally tired from crying, maybe the kiss had a healing effect.Yi Yun gradually changed from sobbing to calm, from calm to silence.The whole space froze in silence as if someone had pressed the pause button.Yan Wenqing didn't want to disturb Yi Yun's thoughts that had finally calmed down, and let her hug him and kneel on the ground.After a long time, Yi Yun's hoarse voice sounded slowly:

"Wenqing, thank you."

Face to face, head to head, Yan Wenqing said softly:

"Why do you want to thank me?"

"I don't know how I'd get through today without you."

"Fool, don't be afraid, I will always be with you."

With his face buried in Yan Wenqing's chest, Yi Yun silently nodded.Although Gao Shengxi disturbed Yan Wenqing without her consent, it was not Yi Yun's original intention.But Yi Yun knew that if it wasn't for Yan Wenqing's appearance, she would have allowed herself to sink into endless darkness and be corroded by pain.

This morning, the moment the door was pushed open by Yan Wenqing.In the gap between black and white, Yi Yun saw not just a single person, but a rainbow like hope.She is acutely aware that the world is still going on, and she is aware that the world still holds a place in her heart.Yi Yun was redeemed by the rainbow light that appeared in time, so he collected his emotions and cheered up again.It is destined to take time to restore vitality, but with a heart to rely on, it is no longer weak and willing to become stronger.

After taking the round urn from Yi Yun, Yan Wenqing helped her stand up slowly, only then did she feel that her legs were so numb that she couldn't move.Yi Yun noticed Yan Wenqing's discomfort, so he quickly squatted down and rubbed her legs, Yan Wenqing held her up:

"Fool, get up. With you helping me, take a while, and it will be fine soon."

"Wenqing..."

"Stop saying thank you, I don't need it. What I want is for you to get well soon, understand?"

"Ok!"

Yi Yun nodded, and his eyes turned red again unconsciously.

"The little fool who made me cry again."

Holding Yi Yun's face, Yan Wenqing wanted to wipe away the tears falling from Yi Yun's eyes with his fingertips, but found that this guy who turned into a crying bucket couldn't persuade him at all.I had no choice but to stick my lips to catch those salty and astringent teardrops bit by bit.

Finally coaxed Leiren'er well, and took care of her to lie down on the bed smoothly.Probably because he was exhausted from crying these two days, Yi Yun fell asleep as soon as he hit the pillow.Seeing that Yi Yun was sleeping deeply, Yan Wenqing was not tired at all, and the sleepiness of her body did not affect her clear thinking at all.Stretch out a finger, and gently draw the outline on Yi Yun's face.The slightly swollen eye circles, against the background of the red cheeks, made this handsome face look like a baby.

Love was not my original intention at first, how could I surrender in such a short period of time?Those teasing and probing intentions were originally supposed to be one-sided efforts, but how did they become two-way effects?The human heart is really an unfathomable thing.

"Big fool, what should I do with you in the future?"

Leaning over and kissing Yi Yun's lips, Yan Wenqing told herself in his heart:

"It's just trying my best."
