Views:

I spent most of the day shopping in the mall, then went to have a meal and watched a movie. It was almost ten o'clock when I got home.

Li Wei was extremely tired, so she put on the hot water and asked Qi Jingyi to take a bath first.

While sleeping, Li Wei took the initiative and said, "Sister Qi, why don't you sleep with me?"

"Well, it feels deserted to live in such a big house. It would be nice to have one more person around." Qi Jingyi smiled. Now there are only two women in the house, as if she has returned to the scene when they shared a house a few years ago. .

After taking a shower and blow-drying their hair, the two of them lay with their heads side by side.

Li Wei had nothing to say. At first Qi Jingyi wanted to answer a few words, but then her eyelids became heavy and her body was exhausted, and she fell asleep not long after. This night, she finally didn't rely on drugs to help her sleep.

The next day, Qi Jingyi woke up early and glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside. It was only six-twenty. Seeing that Li Wei was sleeping soundly, she resisted the urge to wake Li Wei and got up to dress up and tidy up. Then I opened the refrigerator and found food to make a simple breakfast.

The alarm clock rang at 6:50, and Li Wei woke up yawning. Her vacation is over today and it's time to go back to the TV station to get busy. She tidied up slowly, but Qi Jingyi went upstairs with the breakfast she had prepared.

"I was about to call you, but you got up by yourself. The food is still warm, so come and have some."

Qi Jingyi cooked porridge, boiled hard-boiled eggs, and combined with the existing cakes in the refrigerator, she managed to make a breakfast.

Qi Jingyi was a little surprised and said: "You know my craftsmanship is just that, so just eat it."

How could Li Wei dislike someone making breakfast? She ate hard-boiled eggs and cake, and drank most of a bowl of porridge. She wiped her mouth and thanked Qi Jingyi with a smile. Then he went back to his room and changed into formal clothes, put on simple makeup and went out. You can't be late on the first day after taking such a long vacation.

"Be careful on the road. You won't be back at noon, right?"

Li Wei nodded and said: "Well, it's natural. Sister Qi is bored when my second brother and I are not at home. I have tidied up the swimming pool in the back. There is a water pipe in the warehouse and you can use it. Swimming in this weather must be good. ”

Qi Jingyi smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about me. You have to leave quickly. You can't be late for work. Be careful when driving on the road."

Li Wei agreed, took the car keys and went out. She was most worried about Qi Jingyi, and she didn't know when Qi Jingyi would be able to open her heart. She just hoped that this day would come soon.

After Li Wei left, Qi Jingyi was the only one left in the huge house. The empty house and the boundless loneliness hit me head-on. It was already June, but it still made people feel chilly. Subconsciously, she hugged her arms tightly.

Silently tidying up the room, taking out all the clothes that needed to be washed in the two rooms, and then throwing them away in the washing machine. Then he turned on the TV and stood in front of him, waiting for Li Weineng to appear from the TV.

It's a pity that she didn't see Li Wei after waiting for three hours, but the three hours were wasted by her like this. Loneliness, emptiness, and helplessness, these negative emotions invaded Qi Jingyi one by one, making her breathless, making her feel that life was boring, and she could not even see the light of hope. What is this man living for

She didn't sleep in the afternoon, and went out in the bright sun without even a parasol. The scorching sun was scorching the earth, making people's skin ache. She just walked in the poisonous sun like this. After wandering around for a long time, she saw a river. The water was flowing endlessly. At this moment, there was a voice in her heart shouting: "Jump down, jump down. If you jump down, you won't have any worries."

At this time, if someone hadn't come over to ask her for directions, she might have really jumped.

Qi Jingyi suddenly woke up after being asked by passers-by. She looked blankly at the unfamiliar environment around her, where she was. How can I get back to Jianbo's house

It was already past six o'clock in the afternoon when Li Wei walked out of the TV station. She called her home, but no one answered the phone after ringing for a long time. Li Wei thought to herself that Qi Jingyi had just arrived in the provincial capital and didn't know where to go, and then dialed Qi Jingyi's mobile phone. The phone rang for about ten seconds before being picked up.

Before she could ask, Qi Jingyi burst into tears: "Weiwei, come and save me, I can't find the way back."

Li Wei couldn't help but panic in her heart and asked quickly: "Sister Qi, don't be impatient. Slowly tell me where you are now and I'll be right over."

"I...I don't know where this is..."

"Sister Qi, don't be impatient or panic. Speak slowly and tell me what landmarks are around you."

By the time Li Wei walked around a lot and finally saw Qi Jingyi, it was almost dark. Qi Jingyi took off her shoes and sat on the embankment like a helpless child.

"Sister Qi, we are going back."

After Qi Jingyi saw Li Wei, she ran towards her and hugged Li Wei weakly. Li Wei saw her bare feet and her shoes were in another place. She hurriedly picked up the shoes.

Li Wei glanced at the endless river and wondered how Sister Qi walked alone from home to this place three kilometers away.

The churning river water made Li Wei tremble in her heart. Could it be that Sister Qi...

Qi Jingyi had already returned to the passenger seat and sat down, without wearing a seat belt. When Li Wei got into the car, she didn't ask anything. She helped Qi Jingyi fasten her seat belt and prepared to go home.

After arriving home, Li Wei made a simple dinner and asked Qi Jingyi to come out for dinner.

Qi Jingyi nodded silently, but the hand holding the chopsticks didn't move very much.

"Sister Qi, do you have no appetite?"

"Well, I'm not hungry." Qi Jingyi put down her chopsticks after taking a few bites.

Li Wei looked at her worriedly, but couldn't bear to blame her, for fear of irritating her accidentally.

Later in the evening, Li Jianbo called and asked Li Wei about the situation at home. Li Wei told her second brother about Qi Jingyi. Li Jianbo paused for a moment and then said to Li Wei: "Can you take a temporary leave from the TV station? My aunt is already in a critical period and she cannot be without someone by her side."

Although asking for leave right after starting work would definitely make it difficult for the leader, thinking of Qi Jingyi's care for him, Li Wei still made up his mind: "Okay, I will talk to the leader later."

"Thank you for your hard work, Weiwei. I'll study a countermeasure when I get back from my business trip." Li Jianbo thought about it carefully.

"Well, I understand."

Li Wei knew that the so-called dangerous period meant that the patient had thoughts of committing suicide, and she shuddered when she thought of the river. Sister Qi has really encountered huge difficulties and can no longer move forward
