When the car accident happened, apart from the three of them, Jiang Nuomi was also in the car. Jiang Li was thinking about their situation in his heart, and didn't have any extra thoughts to think about why he would appear in this darkness again.
He anxiously called out Jiang Lin's and the others' names a few times, wondering if they, who were in the same car with him, would also come to this place.
In the dark, he couldn't tell the direction, so he could only look for it aimlessly, calling while running, he called Jiang Lin, Jiang Zhan, Chi Fang, Lu Heng, Xiao Qiheng, Lu Jinghe, Xuan Qing, Shen Yu, Jiang Nuomi, Xiaocutie, Xu Guoren, etc. The names of these people, hoping to get a little response that will make him feel at ease.
It's just that no matter how he shouted or how he expected, there was no response from all around, not even a little echo.
The darkness here is like a boundless space, with the danger of being able to devour people, causing a huge layer of fear to suddenly rise in his heart.
That sense of fear comes from never being able to return to reality, never being able to see Jiang Lin again.
Realizing this possibility, he stopped abruptly, feeling as if his heart was being pressed by a big stone. It was stuffy and painful, which made him so uncomfortable that he could hardly breathe. He could only hold his chest tightly and squat down slowly on the spot. down.
If there is light here, you can see his gradually pale face and bloodshot eyes.
It has only been less than a month since the reunion with Jiang Lin, but they have to be separated in such an unprepared way.
He still has a lot of words that he hasn't had time to tell the other party, and there are still many things he wants to accomplish with the other party, and he hasn't even thought of all the things he has experienced with the other party.
The pain in the heart seemed to be infinitely magnified, gradually expanding around the heart, spreading to every blood vessel and every cell in the body, it was more severe than any pain he had experienced in so many years of living.
"...Why did you leave me alone?"
His teeth were clenched, his whole body was trembling uncontrollably, and his whole body was shrouded in an inescapable sadness.
When he was almost desperate, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of him.
The sudden light made him raise his head reflexively, and he was stunned after seeing the image formed by the halo in front of him.
The one who appeared in front was Mother Jiang from the first world. As usual, she was sitting on the sofa in the living room at home, knitting a sweater with her head down. Judging from the style and size of the sweater, it was undoubtedly the call to Jiang Li. .
After the relationship with Jiang Zhan was made public, Jiang Li retired for three years. During those three years of spare time, he often went back to his hometown to accompany Jiang's mother. The relationship with Jiang Zhan was very good. In his heart, he always regarded him as a mother to treat.
So even though a very long time has passed since the end of the first world, when he saw the other party again, he subconsciously called out: "Mom?"
Mother Jiang, formed by the halo, is about in her early fifties, with a gentle smile on her delicate and gentle face, she looks up at the TV from time to time, and doesn't respond to Jiang Li's cry at all.
Her appearance was like a life-saving rope that pulled Jiang Li out of the abyss.
After Jiang Li came back to his senses, he quickly stood up from the ground as if he saw hope, ran towards her, stopped after running a few steps, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
By Mother Jiang's side, Halo gradually became other people, one, two, three, four... more and more people.
Among these people were Shen Yuzhi, Shen Yu's previous life, Ji Shu, Jiang Zhan's secretary, his manager, assistant in that world, and familiar friends who had worked together in the entertainment industry.
These people may stand or stand, whether they are smiling or angry, their faces are extremely vivid, but the bodies formed by the halo are not real after all, and their figures are staggering, as if they will disperse at any time.
Jiang Li opened his mouth, called out their names one by one, and took a step towards them. In the next second, these people suddenly turned into pieces of light feathers like scattered feathers, and scattered around.
Seeing the makeup, Jiang Li eagerly walked to the place where they were just now, and reached out to grab the feathers floating around, trying to keep a little distant memory, but his hand went straight through the feathers, and he couldn't touch them. Can't hold it.
It doesn't feel good to feel empty palms, but when he was disappointed, those halos quickly reorganized before his eyes, and then formed the good brother Feng Yu in the second world, the high school class teacher Zhang Ling, Chi Fang's grandfather, Other students in the class and so on.
Familiar and unfamiliar faces made Jiang Li's eyes warm. He never thought that one day he would have a chance to see these people again.
He stood in place, watching those halos continue to spread out and recombine, forming his relatives and friends in every world time and time again.
The students in District D that he took care of in the third world; the nuns, maids, and eunuchs in the Prince’s Mansion in the fourth world; the parents and Lu’s elders in the fifth world, and the sixth world Li's father and the wise abbot master of Jiaqing Temple.
They appeared one after another, and then left one by one, like a well-planned farewell ceremony.
Jiang Li had met them in a car accident, and now he bid them a formal farewell in the same way.
These halos lingered around him for a long time, as if he was extremely reluctant, Jiang Li stretched out his hand again to grab it, but when he touched it, the brightness suddenly shattered as if disturbed.
"Don't go!"
Jiang Li chased after two steps, shouted eagerly, and then saw the halo transform into a human form in front of him.
One two three four five six...
When the faces of those people gradually became clear, Jiang Li's pupils shrank slightly, and he cried out!
Standing side by side in front of them were Jiang Zhan, Chi Fang, Lu Heng, Xiao Qiheng, Lu Jinghe, and Xuan Qing.
After many years, they are still the same as Jiang Li remembers, just a transparent silhouette can easily make Jiang Li burst into tears.
He never thought that one day he would meet them again in this way, and he didn't even dare to reach out to touch them like he did just now, for fear that they would vanish into thin air if he touched them a little.
Those memories that belonged to them followed these faces, and the missing piece of his memory gradually became full at this moment.
And when he recalled all of them, the six people in front of him gradually merged, and the originally transparent figure gradually became real, and finally formed the appearance of Jiang Lin.
He stood in front of Jiang Li, stretched out his hand, and said softly, "I'm here to pick you up."
Jiang Li's fingers trembled, and he slowly grabbed the hand that was in front of him.
When holding each other for real, the fear and panic in his heart were driven away by this warm and powerful hand at this moment, leaving no trace of haze.
His eye sockets were still slightly red, but the corners of his lips finally lifted slightly.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
…
"… Well."
Jiang Li groaned unconsciously, slowly opened his heavy eyelids, and closed them reflexively after they came into contact with the light.
Jiang Lin, who had been waiting by the side, heard the sound, rushed to the bed, and asked eagerly, "Jiang Li, are you awake?"
His voice made Jiang Li turn his head unconsciously. After seeing the gauze on his forehead, he remembered how he protected himself regardless of the danger in the car accident, and quickly raised his hand to touch his face: "What about you? You Are you okay?"
Jiang Lin held his hand, put it to his lips and kissed his fingers, and said in a low voice, "Just wake up, you've been in a coma for a week, I'm almost scared to death by you."
There was deep worry in his voice, and the overly haggard look on his face proved how impatient and scared he had been this week.
Jiang Li thought he had slept at most, but he was unconscious for a week. Looking at the wound on Jiang Lin's forehead, he asked distressedly, "Is your injury serious?"
"It's not serious, it's just a broken hole." Jiang Lin reassured, "Shen Yu is fine, the airbag in the car protected him, but the concussion is a bit serious, he will be fine after a few days of rest, Jiang Nuomi is protected by you In my arms, I didn't get hurt."
Hearing this, Jiang Li finally felt relieved, and Jiang Lin asked again: "Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I'll call the doctor."
Facing Shang Jiang Lin's worried eyes, Jiang Li felt warm, smiled at him, and said, "I'm fine, I just had a long dream, a little tired, but more joyful."
"Dream?" Jiang Lin looked at him puzzled.
Jiang Li moved his other finger, motioning him to come over.
Jiang Lin lowered his head for some unknown reason, and leaned his ears closer. As soon as he got close, Jiang Li raised his head and kissed his cheek, and then heard him say, "I remember it all."
This sentence made Jiang Lin's hand holding Jiang Li suddenly increase his strength, and turned his head to look at him in surprise.
"I kept you waiting, Mr. Jiang." Jiang Li looked at him with a smile in his eyes: "Please continue to teach me more in the days to come."
Jiang Lin didn't answer right away, but stared at him for a long time, then bent down, carefully and carefully pressed his lips to his lips, not moving for a long time.
It took a long time before his voice sounded in the huge ward.
"Please teach me a lot, baby."
…
After Jiang Li woke up, he stayed in the hospital for a few more days, and after making sure that there was no problem, he and Jiang Lin left the hospital.
When he was in the hospital, Xu Guoren had approached him and rushed over from City A immediately after learning that he was in the hospital. He returned to City A only after he was safely discharged from the hospital.
Shen Yu was discharged from the hospital earlier than Jiang Li's, and when Jiang Li was discharged from the hospital, he was the one who picked him up.
After the weather warmed up, Jiang Li and Jiang Lin rebooked their flight tickets back to City L.
The book bar is managed by a dedicated person, and Jiang Li doesn't have to worry about it. After packing up his and Jiang Lin's things, he finds time to invite the staff of the book bar out for dinner.
Knowing that he was going to settle down in city C, the employees of the book club were very reluctant, and expressed the hope that he could come back often.
After the dinner, Jiang Lin came to pick up Jiang Li.
Jiang Li thought of the time when Xiao Zhou gave him rice cakes years ago and wished him an early divorce. Before getting into the car, he rubbed the little girl's head and said, "Thank you for your blessings before. I'm done, and you should work hard."
After speaking, he opened the door and got in the car, and left first.
Xiao Zhou stood for a long time before he realized what he meant, and jumped up in surprise!
Others didn't understand what charade they were playing, and curiously asked what blessing, Xiao Zhou said mysteriously: "Secret, it's just a very good thing!"
Before leaving L City, Jiang Li took Jiang Lin to a cemetery in the suburbs to worship his parents.
The two burned incense in front of the tombstone. Looking at the photo of his parents on the monument, Jiang Li sighed and said to Jiang Lin: "In the past, I came to see them alone. Now that you accompany me, they can feel at ease."
Standing beside him, Jiang Lin reached out to hold his hand, and said to Jiang's father and Jiang's mother solemnly and solemnly: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, I will take good care of him in the days to come."
Listening to his promise, Jiang Li tightened his hand.
On the second day after sweeping the tomb, the two took a plane back to City C.
On the day of their return trip, a long Weibo post that read "Actor Jiang Li brought a mysterious man to pay homage to his parents, the two of them clasped their fingers tightly, the relationship is close, the actor is suspected to be gay" went viral.
This Weibo is full of pictures and texts. The photographer took photos of Jiang Li and Jiang Lin from several angles. There are several photos of the two interlocking their fingers and smiling at each other. In the photos, Jiang Lin's face is a bit blurred. Jiang Li can recognize it at a glance.
Although Jiang Li has withdrawn from the circle, his fame is still there. Not long after this Weibo appeared, it was forwarded tens of thousands. The keyword "Jiang Li gay" was quickly searched, and soon Jiang Lin's His identity was also picked up by netizens.
Due to the incident of the two people, the Weibo system crashed twice in a short period of time.
When the relationship between the two sparked an uproar on the Internet, Jiang Li and Jiang Lin were still on the plane and didn't know about it.
The public relations department of the Jiang Group pulled down the trending searches as soon as possible, and asked the author who posted the Weibo to delete the original manuscript, but at that time, the number of retweets had exceeded 100,000, and many web pages had screenshots, so it was impossible to post All related messages are removed.
And when Jiang Lin couldn't be contacted, the public relations department didn't dare to deny his relationship with Jiang Li. They could only wait for Jiang Lin to get off the plane and report the matter to him.
When they received the news, Jiang Lin and Jiang Li were on their way back to the car, and their faces became very gloomy after hearing the news.
"I see, collect the information from this media." He hung up the phone and told Jiang Li.
Jiang Li knew from the very beginning that his relationship with Jiang Lin would not be kept secret for long. As a public figure, his words and deeds were always watched by others, and he was used to it.
I just didn't expect these people to be so shameless that even the photos of him sweeping his parents' graves would be used to attract attention and stir up traffic. It's really hateful.
He took out his phone and opened Weibo.
His last Weibo was the one that told his fans that he was safe. At this time, there were over 400,000 comments on Weibo.
Click on the search on Weibo, although the hot searches of him and Jiang Lin have been withdrawn, but just input his name, and the three keywords "gay" will appear later.
He took a quick look at the comments of netizens, and found that there were all kinds of comments, some supported him, some scolded him, and some strongly condemned the shameless act of secretly filming in the cemetery.
Jiang Lin saw that his face was slightly cold, and reached for his mobile phone, not letting him read those bad comments: "I'll let someone deal with it, you don't need to worry about it, and don't read it."
Jiang Li suddenly said, "Do you mind if I make it public?"
Jiang Lin immediately replied: "Of course not, I can't ask for it."
In this society, homosexuality is still not accepted by the public, and many people still feel that the existence of their group is abnormal and violates the laws of nature. So the reason why Jiang Lin didn't mention making it public is that he didn't want Jiang Li to suffer criticism from others.
Although Jiang Li asked this question, he already knew his answer in his heart, after all, he had already made it public in the game world.
For him, the relationship is between the two of them. Except for the close friends around him, there is no need to tell anyone else, but now that it has been exposed, he has nothing to hide.
So he edited a Weibo on the homepage, and then Aite posted Jiang Lin's Weibo that hadn't been posted for thousands of years.
—Jiang Li V: KISS YOU @江林
As soon as he finished editing and posted it, he heard "Okay" next to his ear, and when he raised his head, Jiang Lin lowered his head and kissed him, and the other party's voice overflowed from his lips.
"KISS YOU."
As they exchanged lips and tongues, the driver in front did not look sideways, and slowly raised the partition between the front and rear seats, leaving a space for the two of them to be alone.
Jiang Li's Weibo confirmed his and Jiang Lin's identities, and Jiang Lin also reposted his Weibo.
This time, the Jiang Group's PR department didn't press the heat any further, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them were once again ranked first in the most searched list. Information about the two of them accounted for four of the top ten most searched lists.
The enthusiasm for the public relationship between the two fermented for several days before it slowly subsided, and netizens also began to be diverted by other news.
Later, another netizen broke out that the media that took photos of the two of them and published articles to attract attention had declared bankruptcy, and the public relations department of the Jiang Group also collected a lot of evidence from people who insulted Jiang Li on the Internet, and filed a complaint with the court. litigation.
Both Jiang Li and Jiang Lin didn't take these things to heart. After returning to City C, Jiang Lin also took Jiang Li to sweep the graves of his parents and grandfather. In this way, the two of them officially met their parents. .
On May 21st, Jiang Lin's birthday, the two registered their marriage abroad.
On the day of registration, Jiang Lin's circle of friends that has not been updated for thousands of years suddenly posted a picture of fireworks, which shocked his partners on WeChat and some subordinates of the group, and they all guessed what he meant by this.
After Shen Yu flashed out his fireworks and Jiang Li's lighter at the same time, his expression can be said to be indescribable.
It was not enough to eat the dog food of six worlds in the game, and he had to eat it again when he came back here. It was enough for him to serve these two people.
Because Jiang Nuomi was still in the country to take care of Shen Yu, Jiang Li and the others didn't stay abroad for too long, and returned to the country on the third day after registration.
Jiang Nuomi is not used to unfamiliar places, so Shen Yu came directly to their house to serve the little guy to eat and drink.
During this period, Shen Yu kept sending videos to Jiang Li and Jiang Lin, saying that he was about to be killed by their little ancestor, and that he often stayed up in the middle of the night and squatted by the bedside to stare at him, which would scare him half to death.
On the way home from the airport, Jiang Lin received several wechat messages from Shen Yu, probably saying that Jiang Nuomi messed up again today, always playing on his face when he wasn't paying attention.
Across the screen, Jiang Li could feel his collapse, took Jiang Lin's cell phone to comfort him and said, "It will be here soon, please bear with it."
Back at home, Jiang took out the key to open the door, and as soon as he opened the door and Jiang Lin went in, he saw a white hairball pounced towards him.
He quickly embraced Jiang Nuomi in his arms, and as soon as he hugged it, he heard a "pop" in his ears. Before he could react, he was sprinkled by a large colorful firework.
Of course, Jiang Lin beside him was not spared either, both of them, as well as Jiang Nuomi in his arms, had colored paper faces.
"Wow!!!!!!"
Shen Yu waved a huge firework tube in front of him and shouted at them, "Happy wedding!!"
Behind him, hung a large banner with gold letters on a red background, which read: Warmly congratulate Brother Lin on his new wedding, happy sister-in-law! ! ! ! !
Jiang Lin: "..."
The scene was so familiar, Jiang Lin's face turned black in a second, he threw the luggage in his hands aside, strode over, grabbed Shen Yu who was about to escape, and pressed him on the ground to rub against him violently.
Shen Yu's wailing echoed in the living room, Jiang Li was overjoyed, and patted Jiang Nuomi's head.
Jiang Nuomi rubbed his palm: "Meow~"
…
Jiang Li lived to the age of ninety-one, and this time he left before Jiang Lin.
Before he died, Jiang Lin shook his hand, leaned over and kissed him, and said: "You have a good rest, this time I will see you off, wait for me."
Jiang looked at him reluctantly, held him back with his last strength, moved his mouth, and then slowly closed his eyes.
Jiang Lin understood what he meant.
"I can wait a little longer," he said.
However, not long after he left, Jiang Lin called his son in.
The two of them adopted a child when Jiang Li was forty-five years old and he was forty-seven years old. Now the child has grown up and married a family.
He looked at his son, who was already past his age, and said calmly, "Your father is too lonely on the road alone, I don't worry."
The son heard the meaning of his words, his eyes were red, and he called out hoarsely: "Father..."
Jiang Lin was still holding Jiang Li's hand, looking at him with the tenderness and love accumulated all his life: "I used to make him wait, but this time I can't let him wait too long, I owe you money after all. A lot for him."
The son looked at him, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Go out." Jiang Lin said, "I'll see him again."
The son took a deep look at him and Jiang Li on the bed, turned around and left the room, leaving time for them.
That night, Jiang Lin lay beside Jiang Li, gradually lost his breath, at the age of ninety-three.
…
-end-
The land of the North Pole, the upper realm of the ancient times.
In the empty and dignified Taikoo Hall, a boy in a white Taoist uniform stepped quickly into the hall from the outside, walked up to a white-haired old man in the upper seat, and knelt down respectfully.
"Really, I just received the news that Zhenjun Linyuan and Palace Master Jiangli have returned from the ancient mirror of Xumi."
Dagu Daoist frowned, opened his eyes, and before he could speak, a white ball lying on the futon next to him suddenly jumped up and rushed out of the hall at lightning speed.
"and many more… "
The little boy was startled, and was about to chase after him, when the Master Taigu said: "Let it go, it has been waiting for this day for a long time."
"Yes, real person."
After the little boy retreated, there was only Daoist Taigu left in the hall. The benevolent old man pinched his fingers casually, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes.
"It's good to be back."
