On the third day of the first lunar month, it snowed heavily.
Shen Yiqiong got up early and went downstairs with Xiao Zhi in his arms.
Today's breakfast was made by the invited chef. Originally, the place where they lived would not allow outsiders to come in, but because of Zhou Jiayu's body, they made an exception.
The breakfast was delicious, Shen Yiqiong muttered, saying that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and he had to make some new clothes for Xiaozhi.
The others on the table didn't speak much, and their expressions were dull, as if they were worried about something. In fact, Shen Yiqiong was also worried, but he didn't want to say that Zhou Jiayu once said that his mouth was open, so he was afraid that his words would come true.
"There are a lot of people coming out today, don't wait at the door." Shen Yiqiong touched Xiao Zhi's head, "It will scare people if they are seen."
Since Zhou Jiayu sneaked away, Xiaozhi has been waiting for him at the door every day, but these days it happened to be New Year's Eve, and there were so many people at the door that Xiaozhi could easily cause panic when he was seen.
Xiao Zhi nodded slowly when he heard the words, which should be regarded as Shen Yiqiong's words.
The sound of cars entering suddenly came from outside the door, and everyone was stunned for a moment, then got up in tacit understanding and ran towards the door.
They saw Lin Zhushui's driver driving the car, and they saw another figure, Lin Zhushui, from the window.
"Sir! Sir!" The moment he saw Lin Zhushui's figure, Shen Yiqiong smiled immediately. He thought that Lin Zhushui was back, and Zhou Jiayu would definitely follow him, and both of them would be fine...
Others reacted similarly to him, probably thinking that Zhou Jiayu must be back too.
Such a reaction did not see Zhou Jiayu until Lin Zhushui and Lin Jue, who was sitting in the co-pilot, got out of the car together.
Lin Jue's face was extremely haggard, her eyes were red and swollen, her face was pale, and she looked like she had cried many times. Lin Zhushui stood beside her with no expression on his face, but his long black hair turned grey. There were bursts of coldness on his body - Shen Yiqiong realized as soon as he saw it that the trace of popularity Zhou Jiayu brought to Lin Zhushui was gone again.
This made Shen Yiqiong panic, and even the hand holding Xiao Zhi began to tremble.
No one dared to ask Zhou Jiayu what was wrong, and everyone vaguely felt some ominous atmosphere.
There was a car behind Lin Zhushui and the others, which also drove into the yard. After seeing the car, everyone fell into a deeper silence - it was a hearse used to hold coffins.
Xiao Zhi was ignorant, pulling on his poor sleeves and asking where his father was.
Shen Yiqiong's lips were trembling and he was speechless. He wanted to laugh and gag, but after working hard for a long time, he found that he could not squeeze a word out of his mouth with all his strength.
It was the first time he was so afraid to speak.
The hearse stopped, Lin Zhushui walked over, opened the door, and carefully pulled out an ice coffin from inside, then he slowly bent over, put his face on it, and said softly, "Jiayu, we home."
Xiao Zhi called out dumbly: "Dad." It struggled to jump out of Shen Yiqiong's arms. Shen Yiqiong was reluctant to let go, but it was too strong.
Xiao Zhi ran and jumped all the way, and soon came to Lin Zhushui's side. It called Dad, Dad, and climbed up the ice coffin.
"Dad." Through the glass, Xiao Zhi saw Zhou Jiayu. At this time, it didn't have a clear concept of death. He thought Zhou Jiayu was asleep, so he stretched out his small hands and patted it gently. "Dad, wake up, Dad, wake up, it's Xiao Zhi..." Zhou Jiayu didn't respond to it.
Xiaozhi turned his head blankly and looked at Lin Zhushui: "Dad, why is my father ignoring me, I want him to hug Xiaozhi..."
Lin Zhushui reached out and touched Xiao Zhi, he said, "I'm sorry, Xiao Zhi, I lost him."
Xiao Zhi stayed where he was, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Lin Zhushui's words.
But it doesn't understand, and the people around it understand.
The first one who couldn't hold back was Lin Jue, her waist began to bend, as if she couldn't bear the weight of her body, and a small sobbing sound overflowed from her throat, like weeping blood.
Shen Yiqiong also began to cry, he slowly walked to the side of the ice coffin, and saw Zhou Jiayu lying inside.
Zhou Jiayu's body was well preserved, as if he was only half asleep. He lay there quietly, his long eyelashes cast black shadows, his lips lost their blood color, and his skin became as transparent.
Shen Yiqiong suddenly hated himself. Why did he call him Zhou Jia Yutan? This was originally a joking title, but at this time it became a stinging title.
Tears fell drop by drop, and Shen Yiqiong sobbed.
He has experienced too many life and death, but has not experienced parting.
"You're back." Shen Yiqiong said in a low voice, "Why did you come back..."
Everyone was very quiet, and the air seemed to be stagnant.
After that, Shen Yiqiong was in a trance state. He watched Lin Zhushui bring Zhou Jiayu back to his residence, but he still had an unreal feeling. He always felt that Zhou Jiayu would come back, he would call him Hei Zai with a smile, he would put on an apron to wash his hands and make soup, and he would hold Xiao Huang and slowly stroke him.
But there was nothing left. Xiao Huang sat silently on the sofa, leaning against Xiao Zhi. No one spoke or moved in the room.
Everyone is digesting the hard truth.
"Why, it's gone if you say no." Shen Musi murmured.
Shen Yiqiang sat quietly on the sofa cushion, unable to say a word.
A few days later, Lin Zhushui personally arranged for Zhou Jiayu's funeral. Shen Yiqiong originally thought that Lin Zhushui would not be able to carry it, but he didn't expect that from beginning to end, Lin Zhushui seemed very calm, and even this calm made people feel frightened, and Shen Yiqiong began to be afraid of the outbreak after Lin Zhushui.
Lin Zhushui arranged everything for Zhou Jiayu. He changed Zhou Jiayu's shroud, painted his makeup, lit the fire, and even sent Zhou Jiayu to the incinerator.
At the last step, Lin Zhushui opened his eyes, revealing a pair of black eyes.
This was the first time Shen Yiqiong saw Lin Zhushui open his eyes. He saw boundless tenderness in Lin Zhushui's eyes. Lin Zhushui kissed Zhou Jiayu's lips, and whispered in his ear. He muttered a few words, and then laughed.
Shen Yiqiong felt cold when he saw Lin Zhushui's smile, he walked slowly to Lin Jue's side, and said softly, "Master, sir, are you alright..."
Lin Jue wore a plain white dress with a white flower on her head. After this incident, her whole person seemed to have faded, the smile on her face faded a lot, and she didn't even speak. love to say.
"Yeah." Lin Jue said, "It's okay." Her eyes were light, and her eyes stayed in the burning incinerator, "I have experienced it too, haven't I survived this too."
But her eyes were red again, "Besides, he has really made up his mind for his temperament. Can I persuade him?"
When she said this, Xiao Jinlong was standing beside her, her expression looked a little down, but she didn't know how to comfort Lin Jue. It was just that the weather was fine outside, but it started to snow again.
The tombstone was also chosen by Lin Zhushui for Zhou Jiayu himself. The feng shui was very good. Shen Yiqiong watched Lin Zhushui slowly put the jar with the ashes into the tomb with a very gentle expression.
Shen Yiqiong noticed that the names of Lin Zhushui and Zhou Jiayu had been engraved on the tombstone. It seemed that Lin Zhushui had made up his mind to be buried with Zhou Jiayu.
However, Shen Yiqiong noticed a detail that made him feel panic-the two names on the tombstone were actually inlaid with gold, which was only done by people who were buried.
Lin Jue was not surprised at all, her expression was indifferent, her eyes looked at the unknown scene through Lin Zhushui. When she buried her lover, she didn't know what she was thinking, and no one knew what she was relying on to survive.
The whole funeral was very quiet, no one was talking, and the atmosphere was eerily silent.
Xiao Zhi hid in Shen Yiqiong's pocket, and it finally understood the meaning of death. That is, the person who is in the heart of the heart will not come back, but will go to another world
never see each other again.
After everything was over, everyone went home.
Lin Zhushui opened his mouth in the room and instructed them.
Shen Yiqiong listened, but panicked in his heart, he said, "Sir..."
Lin Zhushui seemed to know what he wanted to say, so he waved and motioned for him not to speak.
Shen Yiqiong could only shut his mouth. His hands were clenched into fists, and his nails cut through the palms. He was not Zhou Jiayu, so he couldn't make Lin Zhushui change his mind. He could only watch the situation deteriorate little by little.
Zhou Jiayu's sudden departure took most of the energy out of the room. The atmosphere in the room became extremely lifeless.
Shen Yiqiong has also started to get busy. He has been in the forest for several years, and it is time to go out and practice alone.
Lin Zhushui's whereabouts began to become erratic, and it was almost difficult to see him at home. He seemed to be looking for something, but no one knew what it was.
Shen Yiqiong was worried about hearing the news of Lin Zhushui's death every day, but one day, when he saw Lin Zhushui, who he hadn't seen for a long time, he actually had the illusion that death was Lin Zhushui's relief.
Lin Zhushui's hair was almost completely white. He sat on a chair in the living room with a cup of steaming tea in his hand. Hearing the voice of Shen Yiqiong coming in, he raised his eyes and glanced at him casually.
It was a pair of black eyes, which should have been very beautiful, but at this time, it was like a frozen lake, and only a deadly cold could be seen inside.
He saw Shen Yiqiong, but he didn't seem to see him. After he looked away indifferently, he asked, "What's the matter."
Shen Yiqiong's heart sank. For the first time, he could feel the change in Lin Zhushui so clearly. In the past, Lin Zhushui, although it was cold outside, had warmth in his soul. But the person in front of him was already cold to the core.
"Sir, I'm going to travel." Shen Yiqiong said, "maybe for a few years..."
Lin Zhushui hummed and said you should go.
Shen Yiqiong said, "Sir..."
Lin Zhushui slowly took a sip of tea and said lightly, "If you want to persuade me, don't say it anymore, I know exactly what I'm doing."
Shen Yiqiang was dumbfounded and could only turn around with a wry smile.
A fish without water cannot live, and water without fish is stagnant water. He was there, but it seemed he wasn't there anymore.
Shen Yiqiong left the Lin family and started a solo trip. If possible, he also wants to be a child for life, but people must grow up, no matter how painful the process is.
Shen Yiqiong always thought that the next time he received news from several senior brothers, it would be about Lin Zhushui's death, and he had even made countless preparations in his heart.
But when he just escaped from a bad place and received a call from his senior brother, he heard his senior brother say something on the phone: "We found Zhou Jiayu!"
"What??" Shen Yiqiong was stunned, "Have you found Zhou Jiayu?"
"It literally means, come back soon." Senior brother was very excited.
Shen Yiqiong didn't understand what Senior Brother meant at all, but he said so, and he wouldn't make a joke about Zhou Jiayu, so Shen Yiqiong hurried back home overnight.
Then, he really met Zhou Jiayu.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Once, Zhou Jiayu was a materialist and believed that death is an endless sleep. But later, he met Lin Zhushui and encountered those things, so he began to think about what the legendary Meng Po looked like, whether the Meng Po soup tasted good or not, and after crossing the Naihe Bridge, would he really forget about the past? edge.
So when he opened his eyes and saw the light, the whole person was dumbfounded.
"Wake up, wake up!" An excited voice sounded, Zhou Jiayu's mind was numb, and he couldn't think at all. He felt like he was a solid piece of wood, lying rigidly on the bed, and no part of his body could move. .
The white roof, white walls, and the smell of disinfectant in the air all told Zhou Jiayu the fact that he was lying in the hospital.
A doctor hurried over, and Zhou Jiayu's voice that was almost crying with joy rang out again: "Wake up, wake up—"
Zhou Jiayu turned his head and saw a girl with a big belly sitting beside him. The girl was full of tears and looked at him with surprise.
"Who are you... Who..." Zhou Jiayu said with difficulty, his voice weak as a mosquito.
"Zhou Jiayu, it's me." Fortunately, the girl heard him clearly, and leaned into his ear and said, "You wake up, our child is about to be born."
Zhou Jiayu: "..." He was stunned for a while before he realized, "Child? Our child?" His mind was in a mess, as if he had been filled with paste.
"Yeah," the girl said. "Can you touch it?"
Zhou Jiayu stretched out his hand and touched it slowly.
The girl said, "Are you happy?"
Zhou Jiayu nodded stupidly.
"Hahahahaha, idiot, you really don't remember anything." The girl laughed when she saw Zhou Jiayu like this, her face was full of tears, "I'm not your girlfriend, Besides, you have been in a coma for more than three years, where is the child?"
Zhou Jiayu's mind was still dull, and he couldn't fully deal with what the girl in front of him said. He only knew the fact that the child was indeed not his own. He was a little disappointed and muttered that he thought he should have a child...
The girl laughed again and said where did your child come from, maybe it was born in a dream.
Zhou Jiayu was inexplicably wronged.
Because of sleeping for too long, Zhou Jiayu's body and memory are very bad. Later, after several reminders, I realized that I had suffered a car accident three years ago, and I have been asleep since then. Originally, the doctor said that the chance of recovery was very slim, but I didn't expect that after lying down for so long, I actually woke up.
But Zhou Jiayu didn't remember the past at all, and his mind was very confused. He always felt as if he had forgotten something very important and wanted to remember it hard. But his friend said that there is no need to worry, he is a single dog with no worries, forget it, forget it, you can start over anyway.
There are three friends in total, two males and one female. One of them is a couple, and the girl just got pregnant. They have known each other since childhood and have always had a good relationship. After Zhou Jiayu encountered such a thing, he never thought of giving up on him.
Zhou Jiayu is naturally very grateful,
However, after lying in bed for so long, Zhou Jiayu's body was indeed seriously affected. The first is that the body is weak, and the limbs are very slender, and can't even stand up.
"Rehabilitation will be more troublesome," the doctor said. "It requires a lot of willpower from the patient."
Although the doctor said so, Zhou Jiayu still gritted his teeth and held on. He wanted to quickly recover his physical condition and retrieve his lost memories. He always felt that he had missed something very important.
Rehabilitation is indeed very painful. Zhou Jiayu has to spend dozens of minutes on the distance that others can walk in dozens of seconds. The worst thing is that my body is completely unable to get used to exercise, and I sweat profusely after a little movement.
His legs also shrank, and there was a huge scar from a car accident on his spine, which looked extremely hideous.
Those friends are all married and have their own families, but they still come to see Zhou Jiayu every three or four days. It can be said that the relationship between them is also very good.
Zhou Jiayu learned from them that they all came out of the same orphanage and regarded each other as brothers and sisters, and Zhou Jiayu had been taking care of them, so after Zhou Jiayu was in a car accident, they chose to stay silent. guard.
In the car accident that year, a total of three people died, all of them from Zhou Jiayu's unit. Zhou Jiayu was seriously injured, but he escaped.
"Then I'm really lucky." Zhou Jiayu said, "Do I really have no girlfriend?"
The pregnant girl laughed: "Why do you always ask this question? Could it be that you had a strange dream? Of course you don't have a girlfriend anymore. You like boys, how can you have a girlfriend?"
Zhou Jiayu: "..." He was shocked.
His friend was so sure that he was obviously not lying, so Zhou Jiayu began to think about his sexuality, wondering if he really liked cute boys
Such doubts continued for a while, until one day.
It happened to be sunny that day, Zhou Jiayu finished rehabilitation and was pushed out for a walk by a friend.
The friend said he was going to the toilet, so he left him alone in the garden.
Zhou Jiayu sat under the shade of the tree, took a nap with his eyes half closed, and fell asleep slowly listening to the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the treetops.
He didn't open his eyes until the sound of footsteps came from beside him, and muttered, "Are you back?"
"I'm back." It was not a friend who responded to him, but a hoarse male voice. Zhou Jiayu opened his eyes and saw a beautiful man.
The man's eyebrows were picturesque, his long white hair was tied behind his head, his body exuded a fresh sandalwood scent, and his black eyes were staring at him tenderly. Zhou Jiayu's heart jumped uncontrollably in an instant. Before, his friend said that he liked men, and he just took it as a joke. Until this moment, Zhou Jiayu was convinced that he really liked men, and he did. people in front of you.
"Hello." Zhou Jiayu stammered, "I, have I seen you somewhere?"
The man raised his eyebrows, showing an intriguing expression.
Zhou Jiayu was a little scared for some reason, and slowly pushed the wheelchair back a little bit, but he was reluctant to retreat too much, so he could only raise his head and continue to whisper, "What's the matter?" You …why are you… looking at me like that.
The man suddenly bent down and hugged him tightly. The man's strength was so great that it seemed to crush his body. Zhou Jiayu was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, like a quail.
At this moment, he saw a piece of white paper slowly emerge from the man's pocket. Zhou Jiayu thought at first that the paper was just dazzling for him, but who knew that the piece of paper actually climbed down the man's back to the top of his head, and began to tug at his hair excitedly: "Dad, Daddy!"
The paper was screaming in a high-pitched voice.
Zhou Jiayu felt the shattering of his three views, and he even began to wonder if he hadn't woken up from the dream at all.
"Too thin." The man put his chin on Zhou Jiayu's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I have to gain weight in the future."
Zhou Jiayu didn't move, and cautiously asked if you had mistaken the person.
I don't know which point this sentence touched the man. His breath suddenly became irritable. He squeezed Zhou Jiayu's chin and said, do you know how long I have been looking for you
Zhou Jiayu was at a loss.
The man kissed him directly.
The two touched their lips and Zhou Jiayu involuntarily grabbed the man's shoulder. This feeling was so familiar that he even felt that he had been in love with a man for a long time.
"I've been looking for you for a long time." The man said, "I only know your name is Zhou Jiayu, I don't know if you are a man or a woman, whether you are young or old, and whether you are still alive—"
Zhou Jiayu's breath from being kissed was uneven, and his eyes even began to glisten because of the lack of oxygen. He gasped for breath, frightened by the man's brutal eyes.
"But anyway, let me find it." The man said, "I can't stand it anymore."
After he finished speaking, he directly picked up Zhou Jiayu, and after Zhou Jiayu exclaimed, he took him out of the hospital directly.
Zhou Jiayu struggled and even tried to call for help, but under the vicious eyes of the man, he turned into a quail.
What did I do to hurt people? Zhou Jiayu thought secretly in his heart, how did he make people like this, and why is he so thin, shouldn't it have something to do with himself
The car roared out of the hospital, and Zhou Jiayu euphemistically asked if he could make a phone call with his friend.
The man threw the phone to him, and Zhou Jiayu said the password.
The man said a number, and Zhou Jiayu said, "Hey, why is it my birthday?"
The man sneered: "We already have children, why can't we use your birthday?"
Zhou Jiayu: "..." He raised his head silently, and saw a piece of white paper on top of his head that was still addicted to his hair, "This?"
The man said: "You still dislike it?"
The white paper on his head suddenly stopped and bent his head down: "Dad, do you despise Xiao Zhi?"
Facing Bai Zhi's accusing gaze, Zhou Jiayu cowardly said in three seconds, "No no, I'm just too happy."
The man and the white paper showed a satisfied expression.
