Zhou Yan's son was hospitalized, and Chen Yuncheng took a day off to visit the hospital.

Before leaving, he picked up a carton of milk from the canteen, pulled down the shutter and locked it, then walked towards the subway station.

Zhou Yan was not in the hospital, and Chen Yuncheng only saw his girlfriend Gu Yaojia living in the ward with the child.

Chen Yuncheng sat down and chatted with Gu Yaojia for a while.

When asked where Zhou Yan was, Gu Yaojia didn't look good and said, "I got the money." She could hear some complaints in her tone.

After all, Gu Yaojia is still young. When they were with Zhou Yan before, they were happy and had nothing to care about, but once they had children, they were stymied by many realistic troubles.

Now that the child is sick and needs money for treatment, it feels unsatisfactory everywhere.

Chen Yuncheng listened quietly and had nothing to say. He glanced at the sleeping child lying on the hospital bed, stood up and said, "Then you all have a good rest, I'll go first."

"Brother Cheng, thank you," Gu Yaojia took Chen Yuncheng to the door of the ward.

Chen Yuncheng waved her hand to tell her that she didn't have to send it off, and walked through the corridor where people came and went towards the elevator.

This is one of the largest hospitals in Chongfeng City. Every ward that Chen Yuncheng passes by is full of patients. There are loud noises everywhere. There are children crying and family members sitting at the door of the ward chatting. The inpatient building seems to be opened in the central Air conditioning, the air is dry and hot, with a special hospital atmosphere. The window at the end of the corridor was open, but it could only be opened with a gap and it was firmly stuck. The gap was so wide that even a child could not get through.

Today is not the weekend, and it is not time to eat, so there is no one in the elevator.

Chen Yuncheng waited for more than ten seconds. When the elevator door opened, he saw a man standing inside.

The man is very tall, and wearing a simple white coat can't completely hide his excellent figure. His expression is indifferent, and the moment the elevator door opens, his eyes fall on Chen Yuncheng's face.

Chen Yuncheng did not avoid his gaze, walked towards the elevator, and at the same time saw the work card on the man's chest. In addition to a photo, the words "Ning Junyan" were particularly prominent.

It turned out that it was really Ning Junyan, and Chen Yuncheng did not admit the wrong person.

He walked in, turned his back to Ning Junyan, and his eyes fell on the constantly flashing floor lights.

The elevator door slowly closed, and the elevator began to descend.

When they went down two floors, the elevator stopped, and seven or eight people came in at once from the outside, and the whole elevator was instantly crowded.

Chen Yuncheng stepped back subconsciously, he felt something stepped on his heel, quickly stopped his steps, turned back and said, "I'm sorry."

Ning Junyan, who was stepped on by him, did not speak.

Chen Yuncheng stood side by side beside Ning Junyan, leaning against the innermost wall of the elevator.

Later, some people came in the elevator, and it became more and more crowded. The air in the small and closed environment was turbid. Chen Yuncheng smelled the smell of smoke and sweat that did not belong to winter. perfume scent.

With his hand hanging by his side, he accidentally touched the back of Ning Junyan's hand, so he subconsciously looked down and saw the expensive high-end watch on Ning Junyan's wrist, and also saw that the cuffs of his down jacket were worn white. Mark of.

Chen Yuncheng suddenly thought that it was fine that Ning Junyan didn't recognize him.

The elevator of the hospital went down to the first floor, all the people in front walked out, Chen Yuncheng followed behind, and Ning Junyan was still behind him.

He stepped out of the elevator, looked up to identify the direction, and was about to walk towards the door of the inpatient department.

At this time, he suddenly heard someone calling his name from behind: "Chen Yuncheng."

How old was Ning Junyan when we separated? Chen Yuncheng remembered that he was fourteen, because he was twelve years old at that time, and he knew that Ning Junyan was two years older than him. Fourteen-year-old Ning Junyan was in a period of rapid development. He was growing taller and his voice became hoarse and unpleasant, so the last thing left in Chen Yuncheng's memory was just the shadow of the voice-changing boy.

Not at all like now, Chen Yuncheng heard the voice of an unfamiliar, low-pitched adult male.

Chen Yuncheng turned around and saw Ning Junyan standing not far from the elevator door.

There were no extra greetings, Chen Yuncheng wanted to greet him with a smile, and asked him when he recognized him, but Ning Junyan just said in a flat tone: "I still have half an hour to get off work, so it's convenient to eat together. Dinner?"

Chen Yuncheng nodded, "Okay."

It was said to be half an hour. In fact, when Chen Yuncheng got into Ning Junyan's Land Rover, it was almost an hour later.

Ning Junyan took off his white coat and changed into a dark coat with a beige cashmere sweater inside.

If this kind of clothes were changed by Chen Yuncheng, it would be cold even if they were on fire when they huddled in his canteen every day.

But Ning Junyan had sufficient heating both in the hospital and in the car. In this environment, Chen Yuncheng felt that after staying a little longer, he could sweat.

When he arrived at the restaurant Ning Junyan had chosen for dinner, Chen Yuncheng took off his jacket as soon as he sat down, revealing the thin sweater inside.

He still felt a little hot, took a sip of lemonade from the water glass, the water was cold.

Ning Junyan sat opposite him, and seldom spoke on the way out of the car until now, but when Chen Yuncheng took off his jacket, his eyes fell on him and he didn't look away for a long time.

After Ning Junyan finished ordering, Chen Yuncheng finally couldn't help but said, "I thought you didn't know me anymore."

Ning Junyan also took a sip of water from the cup and said, "I know."

The two fell silent again.

Chen Yuncheng was suddenly amused. He felt that he had found the Ning Junyan in his memory. At that time, Ning Junyan was also like that. He didn't want to talk more and ignored anyone.

He then smiled and said, "How long? More than ten years?" He actually remembered asking for the time, but he deliberately said it vaguely.

Unexpectedly, Ning Junyan said, "Sixteen years."

Chen Yuncheng looked at him: "I didn't expect you to be a doctor."

Ning Junyan looked him straight in the eyes, "What do you think I should do?"

Chen Yuncheng shook his head, "I can't imagine it."

Ning Junyan asked, "How about you?"

Chen Yuncheng smiled, "I, do a little business."

The waiters brought their dishes one by one.

After eating in silence for a while, Chen Yuncheng asked, "Are you married?"

"No," Ning Junyan answered quickly, and then asked, "Are you married?"

Chen Yuncheng said, "No, I'm still alone."

Ning Junyan nodded and said nothing.

After eating dinner and coming out of the restaurant, Chen Yuncheng immediately put on his down jacket and wrapped it tightly around his body. He saw that Ning Junyan's coat was still on his arm, and he didn't ask him if it would be cold, but just said, "Today Thank you in the evening, then I'll go back first."

They don't even have contact details to deal with.

Chen Yuncheng hesitated, but he saw that Ning Junyan didn't mention it, so he didn't take the initiative to mention it. Although it was Ning Junyan who invited him to have dinner together, he could feel Ning Junyan's indifference and alienation. Maybe they were this meal and they would never see each other again.

Ning Junyan looked at him and said, "I will send you."

Chen Yuncheng said with a smile: "No need, I'm going to take the subway, it won't take much time."

Ning Junyan's tone was calm, and he repeated: "I will send you."

The parking boy at the entrance of the restaurant drove Ning Junyan's car over, got out of the car and handed him the car keys.

Ning Junyan didn't speak any more and walked towards his Land Rover.

Chen Yuncheng had no choice but to follow.
