silent garden

After 72 hours of searching, the airline announced that two people were killed and one person was missing.The missing one was Fei Tianlan.When the news came out, Xia Qi had already woken up from shock for a long time and was staying in the hospital for observation.

He faced many people one after another.

First, Zhou Huaiqiong came to City H to prevent him from going to the peninsula.Then, the airline company, the insurance company, and the police took turns looking for Fei Tianlan's family members.They even found it on his head, who was out of reach.

It turned out that Fei Tianlan not only filled him in the emergency contact in the company profile, he was also the beneficiary of many insurances.

This is probably due to the sparse number of close relatives of the Fei family.

Fei Sanjiang has no living siblings. His wife was a military doctor and nurse when he was in the army, and there was no one in his family.

Now Fei Tianlan's closest relatives in blood are a few cousins ​​who have two branches.Some of these people work in Sanjiang Group, and some are abroad.The former belonged to the old group, and it was a group that Fei Tianlan didn't trust.

Therefore, the world is so big, and when Fei Tianlan's life is in crisis, there is only one same-sex lover who has neither blood relationship nor legal recognition to trust.

Oh, and he has some friends.

But he chose a lover who has no interest relationship.

Zhou Huaiqiong, as Fei Tianlan's closest partner at present, has the foresight to bring a lot of information with him in order to deal with all parties.Xia Qi can be found in most of the files inside.

These documents range from a year and a half ago to recent ones.

Xia Qi didn't know what mood Fei Tianlan was in, and put his name into these documents related to personal and rights matters again and again.He only knew that if he hadn't been touched by Lu Zhao, if Fei Tianlan hadn't taken the initiative to find him, he might not have really turned back.

On the day he left Pinggang, he had a heart of farewell.

He thought it was the same for Fei Tianlan.

Even in the past half a month, Fei Tianlan wandered around him every day, but he never mentioned what thoughts he had during that year and a half.He looked like he was on a long errand, taking advantage of his work to flirt with an old flame.Yes, he did make a somewhat affectionate appearance, but wasn't he like this before?

Fei Tianlan, a well-known young master in Pinggang City.Rich and good-looking, even if the old man just went to prison, it doesn't affect him, and he's up to the trend of taking all men and women--he just regards the children boarding at home as fashionable, fresh, Is it fantasy?

Isn't he?

Isn't he!

He is not.

"...Then, please sign your name first, and the compensation matter will be implemented as soon as possible." A voice suddenly reached Xia Qi's ears, and immediately, a pen was handed to him.

He recovered from his daze, looked at the document in front of him, and asked slowly, "Why do you ask me to sign it now?"

"What?" The person in front of him who didn't know whether it was the insurance company or the airline company seemed to have not understood what he said, showing a puzzled look.Perhaps thinking of his grief, he quickly re-explained with a good attitude, "The insurances that Mr. Fei has purchased before his death have all been verified, and you can sign and we can go through the procedure..."

"When did your insurance company do things so quickly?" Xia Qi stared into the other's eyes.

The staff were questioned for no reason because of their high work efficiency, and their politeness was a bit reluctant: "We have always thought that providing customers with the best and most considerate service is our purpose..."

"Who told you to come?" Xia Qi's eyes were terribly cold.

"Ah? Who? I...our manager..." As he said that, the staff member himself felt guilty.It is true that there is no major insurance claim settled so quickly, and he himself is full of doubts on this business trip.

Xia Qi glanced at him coldly, then lowered his eyes, pushed away the pen, and said in a hoarse voice: "I don't sign, and I don't expect him to die. Also, don't use the word 'before' to him. word."

At this point, Zhou Huaiqiong was already aware of the strangeness.

Although Fei Tianlan regained control of a large shareholding and decision-making power of the Sanjiang Group, it has only been a year since he was fully engaged. I don't know how many people in the old department are still looking forward to kicking him down again.If he could die, it would be a dream come true.The insurance company took the initiative to come to the door to implement the compensation, probably because someone was eager to prove that Fei Tianlan was dead and pushed it out.

"Let's go first, Fei Tianlan hasn't been found yet, so you don't have to rush to lose money." Zhou Huaiqiong put away the pen and documents, and stuffed them back into the hands of the insurance company.

"But..." The people from the insurance company looked at Zhou Huaiqiong, then at Xia Qi.The latter obviously wouldn't speak a word to him again.Needless to say, this trip will never be completed.

He packed up his things and left.

Xia Qi dealt with several waves of people, tiredness appeared on his pale face.He didn't have any expression on his face, he couldn't see any anxiety or worry, only calm and calm.When there was no one to deal with, he didn't say a word, and he didn't look at people.

Zhou Huaiqiong sat with him for a while, and she still had things to do, so she went out and made two phone calls.

After returning to the ward 10 minutes later, Xia Qi was gone.

He received a message on his own mobile phone: The police said that the marine police on the peninsula and the neighboring islands are still searching for rescue, I will go and wait and see.Do not worry about me.Please contact me if you have any news.

Xia Qi is the last of the relatives of the crashed plane who are still waiting.After he landed on the peninsula, he stayed at the local police station, and followed the marine police until the search and rescue was completely over.

no result.

Because of his persistence, the peninsula and the archipelago under the jurisdiction of the neighboring city were sent for an additional search by marine police.But still nothing.They all told him that it was impossible for Fei Tianlan to survive.Some media heard about his deeds and came to interview him.Facing the camera and the microphone, he remained silent.

The author still wrote an extravagant manuscript, focusing on their love affair, and it was reposted countless times on the Internet.

Later, Uncle Wang, Lin Ge, and Dandan all came to him.Lu Zhao called him.Professor Ye and Tian Hua also knew the truth.Xia Weijun asked for leave and came to take him back to N City.Even Zhou Huailuo, who had disappeared for a long time, called overseas and reconnected with him.

In a few days, except maybe Fei Sanjiang who doesn't surf the Internet in the prison, the whole world will know that Xia Qi is waiting for Fei Tianlan.

Everyone around him urged him to go back.His seldom-used Weibo account has gained countless followers, and the comments are filled with words such as "cheer up", "sorry", and "the living must look forward".He browsed some when he was looking for news at first, but he never read it again.

He stayed in the peninsula for half a month, and his ability to feel seemed to be blocked, and many words and comforts were deaf to his ears.The initial anxiety, worry, and fear gradually disappeared.What he feels most clearly every day is the salty smell brought by the sea breeze.

He is calmer than ever.It was also in this kind of calm that he clearly and unmistakably understood what Lu Zhao had said.

——Fei Tianlan was still there, he could feel it.

Half a month later, he followed the advice of his relatives and friends and left the peninsula.But instead of returning to N City, he returned to Pinggang.

Fei Tianlan's record was still in the fingerprint lock of that house, and he went in smoothly.Fei Tianlan is very lazy. It has been almost two years, but the inside of the house has not changed.If it weren't for regular hourly cleaning, the house would be no different from an abandoned house that no one lives in.

It took him two days to clean it again by himself.On the third day, a stranger knocked on the door outside the courtyard.

He went to open the door and found it was a gardener.Only then did he notice that in the deserted big villa, only the garden was bustling.It was summer, and all the flowers he planted by himself that year grew very well, and patches of weeds naturally grew on the unused land that he turned over the soil.

"Mr. Fei asked me to focus on taking care of the daisies, and not to pull out the weeds." The gardener probably also had access to the Internet, looked at the garden, then looked at Xia Qi, and said cautiously, "Maybe, it's waiting for you to come back and take care of it." Woolen cloth."

Xia Qi raised the corners of his mouth silently, but didn't say anything.

The gardener had finished his work and asked himself if he would come again next time.He nodded and did not change any of Fei Tianlan's arrangements.

After all, in the entire Pinggang City right now, except for the one-acre land of this family, other things originally arranged by Fei Tianlan have deviated from the track.Lin Ge and Dandan went to the door once a day, and told him what was going on outside from time to time.

He can't do anything.

And soon, Lin Ge, who is the director of the Sanjiang Group's legal advisory group, will not be able to support the changes in Sanjiang's world.

It was at this time that Fei Tianlan's news came.

Fifty-two days after the plane crash, and Xia Qi waited at Fei Tianlan's house for 52 days in the afternoon, a number belonging to City H called Xia Qi's phone.In his nearly 34 years of life, he had never experienced the premonition that came from that moment.

Without any reason, he was certain that it was Fei Tianlan.

The moment he swiped the answer button, his breathing was almost stagnant.It was quiet over there, and at first there was no movement at all.After a while, there was a sound of breathing that was obviously deliberately restrained, followed by a light cough of anxiety.

Xia Qi felt as if his soul had returned to his place, and his blood was boiling hot and boiling.But because he was too nervous and concentrated, he consumed too much energy in a short period of time, his body suddenly became weak, and he fell down on the steps in front of the door.

He only heard himself calling out the other person's name tremblingly.

"Fei Tianlan."

Then I heard Fei Tianlan answer: "It's me."

"Fei Tianlan." Xia Qi clasped his neck with one hand to prevent the crazy emotions in his body from rushing around.But he still yelled that name several times in a row almost unconsciously.He didn't stop until Fei Tianlan didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

He was sure he had just gone mad.It turns out that the madness of human beings is not all about topsy-turvy, but also silent screaming.

It took a while to calm down before he recovered, and Fei Tianlan's crying and laughing also healed.His voice was a little strange, deeper and rougher than before.

He said: "Xia Qi, you are the first person I think of after I was reborn... No, you are the first person I think of after recovering my memory... Not right, you are..."

As if realizing that he was incoherent, he paused, took a deep breath, and spoke again: "They said that when I was stupid, I only remembered your name. So, it should be said, I forgot everything, and I still remember you name."

Fei Tianlan was the last passenger to jump off the plane. At that time, the situation of the plane itself was already very complicated.The fuselage was very hot, and his parachute seemed to be affected, and it failed to protect him from the heavy rain and turbulence like other umbrellas.He finally fell into the sea in the dark, not knowing what kind of sea it was.

But it was also the unsafe umbrella that blocked the progress of a fishing boat. The fishermen salvaged the obstructing umbrella and fished him too.

It is said that that night, the fishing boat also experienced a narrow escape.If it hadn't been for changing the driving angle to salvage him, the fishing boat might have been thrown into the sea by a whirlpool.

Both he and the fishing boat had narrow escapes.

Among them, his life was even more difficult and dangerous.Falling into the sea from a high altitude, the waves hit, and nine and a half out of ten people who encountered such a thing might have died.So when he returned to the shore, he only had half his life.

The medical conditions within a radius of tens of miles of the fishing village are limited. He was hanged for two days in the hospital in the town before his vital signs were stable.But has not woken up.The fisherman who rescued him was superstitious, and even invited several great immortals to do it for him to call his soul.After calling all night, he actually woke him up.

However, the nerves of his brain were damaged by the impact of the waves, and he had problems with many functions.I don't remember anything, and I'm stupid.

He didn't have anything on him to identify him at the time, and he couldn't contact anyone if he couldn't remember it himself.Although there were several days of postings on the Internet, no one in the fishing village paid attention to it, and no one connected him with the tragic hero in the post.

In this way, he worked as a fool in the fishing village for more than a month.

"Fool?"

"Well, idiot." He uttered a few voices unique to people with dementia on the phone, babbling, "That's it. If you find me earlier, you can bully me at will, and I will never resist."

"..." Xia Qi had nothing to say, but really wanted to hit him right away.So I finally remembered to ask him where he is now, how to find him, and book a ticket immediately.

Hearing this, Fei Tianlan suddenly fell silent.Xia Qi keenly felt that his mood had changed, and he also became anxious, and asked cautiously: "What's wrong? Don't you want to come back?"

"I..." Fei Tianlan sighed deeply, very painfully and deeply, but he just didn't say it directly.

Xia Qi was anxious: "What are you doing!"

"For me, I have been fishing every day for the past two months. Now my skin is dark, my hair is long, and my fingernails and toenails are full of sand. I doubt it's more than that, maybe there's sand in my ears. Anyway..." He He sighed again, "Not handsome anymore."

Xia Qi: "..."

Xia Qi didn't speak for a long time.

Fei Tianlan waited for Ah and the others, but he panicked. He said "Ai ai" twice but didn't hear a response, and said aggrievedly, "Look, once you hear that I'm not handsome anymore, you don't want to talk to me anymore."

"...Fuck you, bastard!" Xia Qi couldn't bear it anymore.

Fei Tianlan immediately fell silent.Just like this, the two were silent for a while.No one wants to hang up the phone.

After a long time, Xia Qi spoke again: "You send me an address, and then wait there, I will pick you up right away."

Fei Tianlan was very obedient: "Okay."

"Then hang up first."

"Ah."

"Bye."

"Hey."

"Bye-Bye……"

"and many more!"

"what?"

"You... really want to rape me?"

"……roll!"
