[48]
The days like this are getting longer and longer. The hearts of the two teenagers are testing each other and warming each other, which has become a short-lived spring day in this clinic.
Chi Qiu began to wait every afternoon, and Lu Ming used to come every afternoon.
Until one day, the keen Chi Qiu noticed something was wrong with Lu Ming.
He asked Lu Ming worriedly, "Are you tired?"
"What?" Lu Ming came back to his senses, looked at him blankly, and found that Chi Qiu was also "looking" at him. Lu Ming paused, and found that his tone of speech was blunt, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he restrained himself a little.
He spoke again, pretending to be relaxed: "What's wrong with me?"
"Every time you talk, you sound like you're having fun, but I think... you're tired. Is something going on?"
Chi Qiusheng was afraid that he would offend Lu Ming if he guessed wrong, so he squeezed his two hands together nervously: "I'm sorry, maybe I'm too sensitive."
Lu Ming leaned on the bench, his wrist was a new bruise. He lowered his head and rubbed his bruises, the slight tingling tormented his nerves and made his slightly long eyelashes tremble.
"No, but I'm indeed a little tired." Lu Ming's tiredness was a tiredness that he didn't know where to start, "But I can't say it, sorry, thank you for caring about me."
He didn't want Chi Qiu to know that he had a mentally abnormal mother, he was afraid that Chi Qiu would alienate him.
Therefore, Lu Ming deliberately shrugged his shoulders, and pretended to smile nonchalantly: "Chi Qiu, you are so amazing, you found out right away. Others... those people think that I am happy every day. But in fact, there is nothing to be unhappy about. , Indeed, there will be happy moments.”
He couldn't go on.
But if Lu Ming was really happy, why would he come to this clinic
While hesitating, Chi Qiu took the initiative to reach out, held his hand unfamiliarly, and comforted him: "It's okay, we all came to Aunt Luo's place because we were a little tired, didn't we?"
Lu Ming nodded, belatedly remembering that Chi Qiu couldn't see, and said: "Yes." He asked, "Then what are you tired of, can you tell me?"
"It's okay not to say, I just think, if I can help you, I want to help you."
Chi Qiu lowered his eyes, and after thinking for a while, his lips parted slightly: "Actually, the doctor said that my eyes are likely to recover."
Lu Ming sat up straight, and his voice was a little louder: "Isn't this a good thing?"
But Chi Qiu shook his head bitterly: "Except for my mother and grandmother, no one is happy for me. If my eyes can see, many things will change. But if I can't see, maybe everyone will be happy."
Chi Qiu didn't dare to tell the fact that he had regained his sight. He told Lu Ming: "Recently, my mother and stepfather started to quarrel frequently, and it reached the point of divorce. My half-sister slipped down the stairs in order to prevent them from getting a divorce. fell down, and there was nothing I could do to help."
Not only that, but it all happened because of him.
Chi Qiu said dejectedly, "I don't know what to do. I don't want to go home now, and I don't know where I'm going." How long can he hide in this small clinic
Lu Ming, on the other hand, seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He held Chi Qiu's hand tightly and squeezed it hard, fearing that it would hurt Chi Qiu.
Chi Qiu blushed, and wanted to pull his hand away, but failed: "What are you doing..."
Lu Ming clenched it shamelessly, like a young boy in first love, shyly scratched his head with the other hand, and said, "I also have something to tell you."
His Adam's apple moved: "My mother finally agreed to divorce, and I may not come to the clinic again."
Chi Qiu was taken aback for a moment, it was obvious that he felt reluctant.
Lu Ming lowered his head and continued: "My mother and I have to go abroad first. She is not in good health. I will accompany her there for treatment for a while. Then, I want to send her to my grandfather. But I'm not going to stay there, I want to try to live my life for a while."
Chi Qiu listened carefully.
Lu Ming took a deep breath, blinked his eyes, and looked at Chi Qiu one more time.
Just this one glance gave him endless courage.
Lu Ming looked at Chi Qiu eagerly, and said, "It might be a while... When I come back, do you want to live with me? You are 15 this year, and I am 17. In fact, it won't be long before we become adults and can move out." live."
Chi Qiu was startled by his words and was too surprised to answer. And his heart was already beating like a drum, deafening.
After all, Lu Ming is just a young man with a fledgling love affair. He was very apprehensive, afraid of being rejected by Chi Qiu, and expressed in a panic: "I think it is a very good thing that you can recover your eyesight. If you can recover your eyesight, we don't have to stay here all day long." In the small garden. I want to take you out to play, to eat delicious food, to see beautiful things! The world is so big, you can always find a place without worries, right?"
The boy's wish is as innocent as before, and Chi Qiu's heart yearns after hearing it.
"Then what if I can't recover?"
"It doesn't matter if you can't recover your eyesight. I will take you with you. You won't lose it wherever you go." Lu Ming was not in a hurry, he said sincerely, "It's still early, you can think about it slowly."
Chi Qiu's ears were buzzing, he couldn't give an answer at this moment, but gave up the idea of pulling out his hand.
Chi Qiu's heart was pounding, and the throbbing stuck in his throat was a beautiful thing in the boy's mind. He became afraid to look at Lu Ming, and lowered his head to look at the stones and grass on the ground.
Then a petal fell at his feet, and he touched it furtively.
Lu Ming noticed his little tricks, thought that Chi Qiu had split his heart, and confessed unhappily: "It would be great if we could be together forever, I will always like you very much."
Chi Qiu was dumbfounded, it was the first time he was confessed.
Lu Ming was also nervous. He blushed behind his ears and looked particularly disturbed: "What about you?"
"Will you still like me? Will you be with me?"
Chi Qiu didn't answer, but he nodded his head vigorously, and Lu Ming smiled happily.
This afternoon, they had a little more tacit understanding, and the hands they were holding were not separated for a long time.
And this answer that Chi Qiu was ashamed to say when he was young, now, for the 25-year-old Chi Qiu, it is a love sentence that can be said calmly.
He looked at Lu Ming who was sleeping beside him, and pursed his lips.
Who would have thought that the optimistic young man who talked non-stop at the beginning would turn into the lonely appearance he is now.
Chi Qiu only knew a rough idea of what happened to Lu Ming. When no one told him, he didn't know what Lu Ming had experienced before, so he closed his heart step by step.
Chi Qiu's heart ached.
The ten years of separation were too long, they were absent from each other's growth, but fortunately they did not miss each other.
He leaned close to Lu Ming and slept in Lu Ming's arms, which really verified Lu Ming's words of "living together" and "always together".
Chi Qiu smelled the faint scent of shower gel on Lu Ming's body. In order not to wake Lu Ming to sleep, he said in a voice that he could only hear: "I like you too, and I will always love you."
He embraced Lu Ming, and this time, he said it aloud.
Very quiet.
Chi Qiu said, "So you need to get better soon."
In the blink of an eye, it was summer, and the scar on Chi Qiu's arm healed a lot. With Lu Ming's reminder and help, he applied the medicine on time every day and paid attention to a light diet, so he didn't leave deep scars.
Because of this wound, he hasn't been back to Chi's house for a long time.
On Saturday morning, Chi Qiu woke up earlier than Lu Ming, and he planned to go back to Chi's house.
Lu Ming was supposed to go back with him, but there was an impromptu meeting this morning, so he had to go to the company first. He promised Chi Qiu that he would arrive before lunch.
Chi Qiu skillfully helped him tie his suit and tie, and said while tying it: "If you are busy with work, let's go together next time, don't worry." After finishing speaking, Chi Qiu stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
"Come on, work hard."
"If you don't make it in time for lunch, I'll come over in the afternoon." Lu Ming followed Chi Qiu's movements and kissed him back, "I'll take you home."
At Chi's house, Chi Lanyan knew that Chi Qiu was coming, so she asked the live-in nanny, Aunt Su, to wait outside the door early.
As soon as Chi Qiu's car arrived, Aunt Su enthusiastically stepped forward and opened the door of the back seat: "Young master is here, come on, be careful where you step."
As usual, she helped Chi Qiu walk every step of the way, and kept saying be careful.
Chi Qiu did not forget to ask Xiao Yan to take out the gift he had prepared from the trunk and follow behind.
Aunt Su watched Chi Qiu grow up, and asked affectionately: "Young master hasn't come home for a long time, Mr. Chi doesn't say he's happy, but early this morning, she went shopping with me and planned to cook for herself. Hey, where is Young Master Lu, didn't you come together?"
"He has something to do in the company. He's busy first. Maybe he won't come over for lunch."
"Oh, that's a pity. You said last time that he likes to eat scallion fish, and Mr. Chi even picked out a fresh sea bass."
Hearing that Chi Lanyan intended to prepare scallion fish for Lu Ming, Chi Qiu felt a little pity.
Once at his home, Chi Qiu's blinding stick became useless. He entered the room familiarly, and called out first: "Mom, I'm back."
But it wasn't Chi Lanyan who responded to him.
In the living room, Lin Yuming just came out of the study, holding an empty water glass in his hand. When he saw Chi Qiu, there was not much joy on his face, but more politeness and alienation.
