It was already December, the weather was freezing cold, and the trees in the hospital had lost all their vitality, with dead leaves falling all over the place.
When Zhou Hao went downstairs to pick up the courier, he ran into Jia Lin in the inpatient hall. His old man was discharged from the hospital today and has been in the hospital for half a year. There were a lot of daily necessities here and there, and Jia Lin couldn't do it alone.
"Let me help you." Zhou Hao carried the basin on the ground to the car for him.
"A bunch of useless things, the old man is reluctant to throw them away, and he wants to carry them all home like antiques." Jia Lin complained.
"Why don't you find someone to come over?"
"Odd jobs, too lazy to bother others, the aunt at home is not here today."
The two were busy while talking, and soon, all the things were loaded into the car.
"Thank you, I will treat you to dinner in a few days."
"You're welcome." Zhou Hao said blankly, "You are different from them."
them? Jia Lin smiled, knowing who this person was referring to.
He looked at Zhou Hao closely at this moment, and felt that this person was really good-looking, but he didn't like to talk very much, and always raised his eyelids, but he matched Jiang Yuqian's dumb guy quite well.
Within a few days, Zhou Hao actually received a message from Jia Lin—inviting him to dinner.
Zhou Hao instinctively refused, "I'm on the night shift at night, so I won't go."
In fact, when he first got together with Jiang Yuqian, that person never took him to meet his friends. Fortunately, he was withdrawn and didn't like to meet strangers. However, when I first met a partner, I inevitably harbored some bad thoughts in my heart, and I couldn't wait to tell the world about this relationship.
He deliberately appeared at their hair party, and he will always remember that Jiang Yuqian pretended not to know him with an indifferent face.
What are you doing here? Come and play. That's all they talk about.
The whole party itself is ignored. Then, he saw the legendary "Xu Xu", turned his gaze to Jiang Yuqian, and unexpectedly discovered that such a cold block could laugh.
As soon as I left the hospital gate at night, I saw a cool blue Audi r8 parked at the door, the window was rolled down, revealing Jia Lin's face, "Come up."
Zhou Hao knew that he couldn't evade it, so he no longer held back.
The bustling KTV, the loud sound effect makes people's ears uneasy, Zhou Hao doesn't like this kind of place, his brows are slightly frowned, why is he still singing while eating.
Zhou Hao raised his voice and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing here?"
Jia Lin just smiled and said nothing, and led him forward. The moment he opened the door, Zhou Hao finally understood. It is said to be a meal, but it is actually a small gathering of a few of their buddies.
Jiang Yuqian was leaning on the corner of the sofa with blurred eyes at this time, the button on his shirt was undone, his tie was loosely tilted to his chest, his face was flushed with drunkenness...
Zhou Hao indulged in this attitude for a moment, he thought, unless Cheng Zixu was a straight man, he couldn't figure out why this person would not like Jiang Yuqian.
"Why did you bring him here?" It was Zheng Shichu who stood up noisily, so drunk that he couldn't even walk steadily.
"You guys, did you secretly get yourself drunk before I came?" Jia Lin joked, then turned to Zhou Hao and said, "Go and see Yu Qian."
Zhou Hao didn't intend to go there at first, but it was a little awkward to be alone, so he walked towards the corner of the sofa, but Zheng Shichu tripped over him, and he staggered and jumped on it.
Jiang Yuqian was woken up by the sudden impact, opened his eyes and saw the person in front of his chest, and subconsciously pushed him away.
A long time ago, he might have felt sad for this disgusted expression, but now he is too lazy to be sad, he stood up abruptly, rushed over and gave Zheng Shichu a hard push.
An eye for an eye, Zhou Hao understands this too well. The kid was already quite drunk, and he was unprepared, and immediately fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Zheng Shichu was furious, seeing that the two were about to fight, luckily Jia Lin pulled Zheng Shichu away.
"Fuck, what are you bringing here?"
Zhou Hao stepped forward and punched him, "Who the hell are you scolding!"
"Who of us brothers don't know, Yuqian doesn't like you at all, Zhou Hao, you are a fucking bitch! Girls have more backbone than you!"
Zhou Hao clenched his hands into fists fiercely, and now he was so angry that he wanted to tear this person's mouth open, "Dog's mouth!"
Then he turned to Jiang Yuqian in the corner, that person was purely watching the show as if he had nothing to do with himself, and didn't want to get involved at all.
If it was someone else, Cheng Zixu, damn it, that person would have charged up and beat Zheng Shichu to death long ago.
However, over the years, Zhou Hao has learned to behave well, and he rarely compares himself with Cheng Zixu. Because, apart from humiliating himself, he couldn't think of a sense of comparison.
"Give me some face! He was called by me! Zheng Shichu, can you not be so fucking drunk!" Jia Lin was also completely angry, what the hell was going on.
"I'm sorry." Jia Lin apologized.
Zhou Hao straightened his messy clothes, "Mad dogs biting people, it's none of your business!"
After such a fuss, everyone was not interested in continuing to play, and there were more than a dozen bottles of beer lying on the coffee table. Tian Bin took the microphone and roared twice, but he didn't feel like singing anymore.
Everyone put on their coats and staggered away.
The three of them came here by car, and they were all drunk at the moment, and wanted to find a substitute driver, but Jia Lin thought that he didn't drink anyway, so he sent them home one by one.
First Zheng Shichu, then Tian Bin, and finally the three of them were left in the car. Jia Lin sent the two to Binjiang No. 1.
Zhou Hao got out of the car directly, ignoring Jiang Yuqian in the back seat.
"Hey! Yuqian is still in the car."
"Wherever he likes to go, it's none of my business!"
Jia Lin knew this person's temper well, and he was probably still angry, so let's send the Buddha to the west. After Jia Lin parked the car, it took a lot of effort to move Jiang Yuqian to the door of his house.
"Ding dong—"
Zhou Hao opened the door, and without losing his temper, he helped the man into his room.
"I'll go, I'm exhausted. This kid did it on purpose, it's not that he's so drunk."
Zhou Hao handed Jia Lin a glass of water, and Jia Lin took a sip of the water and felt a little better.
This was the first time he came to their home, Jia Lin looked around, everything was neatly arranged, the mahogany floor was shiny, and the tea table and TV cabinet were also spotless.
It's rare to see elders who love cleanliness and tidiness so much. Zhou Hao is really an "outlier", but this is a compliment.
"I'm so sorry today, I want to take you to play."
Zhou Hao shook his head indifferently, "It's okay."
I don't know who started it, so the two chatted a little in the living room. Jia Linshun mentioned Jiang Yuqian and Cheng Zixu, and talked about their high school life.
Zhou Hao didn't care on the surface, but in fact his heart was already ups and downs. He was quiet and didn't even dare to intervene, for fear of interrupting Jia Lin's words. Because, he is more curious than anyone else about the past of those two people...
"They are at the same table in high school, you know."
Zhou Hao nodded.
"Yuqian's father runs a company, so he doesn't usually stay at home; his mother is a university professor, and she's under a lot of pressure for scientific research and job title evaluation, so she's usually quite busy.
Yuqian was looked after by his aunt since he was a child, and occasionally his mother threw him to his grandma's house. He is also quite withdrawn, similar to you, and he doesn't like to talk. The four of us have known each other since we were young, and we have known each other since we wore crotch pants.
Cheng Zixu, that was all later. The high school was divided into classes, the four of us broke up, Yuqian and Cheng Zixu were in the same class. Well, in high school, the family arranged a lot of remedial classes, and the few of us hardly saw each other. There was a birthday, when Yuqian's parents were not at home, it was Cheng Zixu who took Yuqian to the playground. It is estimated that the two have gradually become acquainted since then. "
"At that time, did Jiang Yuqian like Cheng Zixu?" Although Zhou Hao didn't want to admit it, there was nothing he could do. The man who had a blind date with him had always been thinking about others.
"Basically, the two often did their homework together, reviewed their homework, and went out to play a lot. When they graduated from high school, they went on a graduation trip. When they came back, Yuqian told us that he liked Cheng Zixu."
Jia Lin weighed Zhou Hao's expression, afraid that this person would feel wronged and couldn't listen anymore, but fortunately, the person in front of him looked as usual, so he continued, "Yuqian is quite boring, it's rare to see him take the initiative to like someone, even though he is a man , but as long as he likes it, the few of us are happy to match up."
"Then what?"
"In the summer vacation of the third year of high school, the rest of us planned a confession for him without telling Yuqian. Although Yuqian and Qi Ge were the first to kill and play later, they were actually quite happy. However, no one expected that Cheng Zixu would reject him. .”
It turned out that he confessed his love once, so did this person hold the ring last time because he wanted to confess his love again
It turns out that no matter how proud and conceited a person is, there are times when he is willing to bow his head. Unfortunately, you are not the one who makes him subdue.
"It seems that he likes Cheng Zixu very much."
"Yes." Jia Lin said teasingly, "But I think you are more suitable for Yuqian than Cheng Zixu."
Zhou Hao also agreed with a smile, very blunt.
After seeing off Jia Lin, Zhou Hao took a shower and went to bed, it was a tossing night. Jiang Yuqian lay drunkenly, and there was a rare silence between the two of them, and they stopped arguing.
Zhou Hao leaned his body closer, trying to absorb some of the little warmth left. He thought radically, let this state continue—he likes Jiang, Jiang likes Cheng, and Cheng doesn't like Jiang.
In this way, both he and Jiang Yuqian are poor people.
It's good to be poor, it's better for two people to be pitiful together than to be pitiful alone.
"Jiang Yuqian, I've been like this for the rest of my life, and I wrong you to stay with me, a lunatic, okay?" Zhou Hao leaned against the man's back, and said these words gloomily.
The next morning, Zhou Hao was sitting upright in the dining room drinking porridge, and he glanced up at the person who had just woken up.
"There's porridge in the kitchen. I'm off to work." Zhou Hao got up, didn't look at Jiang Yuqian any more, and walked to the entrance to change his shoes.
Jiang Yuqian was still in a dazed state, and he had no memory of what happened last night. I pressed my temples hard a few times, but it still didn't help, and I couldn't think of any fragments.
