Wu Qiong locked herself in a small space, supported the door panel with her palms, and stood there for a while, with her forehead resting on the back of her hands as if slack.
She didn't wear much, she just came back from the southern sea island, she wore short-sleeved trousers, and a beige windbreaker on the outside. The shoes were single shoes, which couldn't resist Zhangzhou's damp and cold, and a chill rushed from the soles of her feet to her calves, and she shivered.
Feeling unable to support herself, Wu Qiong suddenly raised her head, took a few steps back, and fell down on the toilet seat.
Her face was bloodless, her eyes were dull and dazed, and she was still cold. Finally, her feet left the ground, and she bent her knees and hugged herself tightly.
The door next door slammed lightly, and someone came in on the phone. Wu Qiong turned her head slightly, not on purpose, but she couldn't help but listen to a few words casually. Within a few minutes, there was the sound of flushing water, and then the door panels collided again, and the sound of heels faded away. There was no one else, and it was as dead as an empty city.
Wu Qiong suddenly panicked, clenched her hands vigorously, as if remembering something, she took a cigarette from her body and bit it on her mouth, the flames sprang up, and when she got close to the cigarette butt, she stopped her movements and her thumb gradually loosened. She put the cigarette close to her nose, closed her eyes and sniffed hard, the smell of shredded tobacco calmed her mind a little, and after a long time, her chin fell back to her knee.
After staying in the cubicle for an unknown amount of time, the cleaning staff shouted outside.
Startled, she opened her eyes.
After waiting for a while, the cleaner knocked on the door of the cubicle: "Is there a lady surnamed Wu inside?"
Wu Qiong was stunned and responded.
Cleaning said: "A gentleman outside asked me to come in and take a look."
She shook her hands uncontrollably, paused for a few seconds, and then opened the door to go out.
Qiu Zhen was no longer in his original position, he was waiting at the corner of the elevator, leaning against him, his eyes were not in focus, and they were cast lightly in the distance.
Wu Qiong walked to his side with a cold face.
He was playing with his mobile phone, and after a while, his eyes found the focal length: "Come out?"
"… Um."
He looked down at her, and said lazily, "I thought you fell into it, and you were going to call the police."
Wu Qiong clenched her fists, lowered her head and said nothing.
He stood up straight and put away his cell phone: "Let's go."
"etc."
He stopped: "What?"
"I fulfilled my promise and ran this trip with you... You should also keep your promise and return those things to me."
Qiu Zhen pursed his lips: "But I don't feel comfortable playing." He nodded at her: "Facing this dead face all day long is simply unappetizing."
Wu Qiong gritted his teeth: "What exactly do you want?"
He turned around and hooked her waist, leading her to go out: "Send you back?" Wu Qiong struggled to break free, and his arms tightened: "There is a new high-end hotel near the Science and Technology City, when do you have time next week, I will pick you up? "
Wu Qiong's back was stiff, and he was dragged all the way out of the airport hall. Qiu Zhen's driver was waiting by the side of the road, and he opened the door of the back seat, trying to stuff her inside.
Wu Qiong held on to the car door: "Tell me why you are willing to give up?"
Her voice was cold, and there was a poisonous sharp blade in her eyes, she wanted to cut him into pieces, the outdoor temperature was low, Qiu Zhen was completely cold from the inside out.
He put his hands back into his pockets, raised the corners of his eyes frivolously: "Stay with me one more time."
Wu Qiong's breathing was slightly stagnant, "Don't push yourself too hard."
He smiled, spread his hands and shrugged: "Go to the police, sue me for harassment, this time I will admit everything, and I will never run away. But, I like to talk nonsense, that matter..." He paused, Suddenly shifted and said: "I thought that Professor Liang was so upright that he couldn't rub the sand in his eyes. Your father accepted the research grant from Jianchang, why didn't you see her surrender herself in a high-spirited manner?"
Wu Qiong trembled with anger: "Who set this trap, you should understand in your heart."
"I don't understand." Qiu Zhen lowered his head lazily, lifted her chin lightly with his fingers, and took a comfortable breath: "I really don't need to send it?... Then wait for my call."
"My surname is Qiu, don't push me into a hurry." Wu Qiong grabbed his neckline violently, his knuckles turning white.
Qiu Zhen didn't break free, and following her strength, he bowed slightly and drew closer. He saw her almost ferocious face, and the fierce light in her eyes. His chest was stuffy for a while, but seeing her collapse, he felt an abnormal sense of pleasure in his heart.
He smiled: "What will happen?"
Wu Qiong squeezed out between her teeth: "Jade and stone will be destroyed."
"Okay," he smiled back, "I'll wait."
The car merged into the main road with a bang, Qiu Zhen leaned heavily on the back of the chair, breathing hard, as if she still had the strength she had just now. He unbuttoned two buttons, looked back, the figure gradually became smaller, stood sideways, and stood there without moving.
The unspeakable emotions in my heart, I don't want to admit it, but I can't get rid of it. He competed with himself, took out the phone, scratched at random, and dialed a random one, which happened to be the big girl.
He changed his tone: "Where is it? I'll go find you. "
...
Lu Qiang and Lu Yin waited in the waiting area. It took ten minutes to take the taxi. The traffic slowed down and gradually drove out of the airport lane.
Lu Yin took off her scarf, lowered her head, and glanced out of the window unintentionally. The car passed by Terminal 1, and there were many private cars parked at the gate. She straightened her body and looked out seriously.
Lu Qiang noticed: "What are you looking at?"
She stepped back and tapped the glass with her finger: "It's him."
Lu Qiang raised his eyes and looked at the position she pointed to. Standing near the car, one tall and one short, confronted each other indifferently in the howling wind.
The speed of the car was very fast, and it passed by the car window. Lu Yin sat back and looked at him sideways.
Lu Yin licked her lips: "I saw that woman just now."
He echoed.
"In the bathroom at the airport, she hid in it to smoke, and then I almost knocked her over... She didn't seem to have enough energy, and she was thinner than me. I didn't expect to be with him."
Lu Qiang asked, "Are you tired?"
"Not tired, I slept all the way." Lu Yin answered casually. I always feel that she is very familiar, as if I have seen her somewhere.
"Eat out tonight?"
She thought for a while, "Let's do it at home, we will pass by the market in a while." Lu Yin leaned against him, and Lu Qiang hugged her tightly, listening to her ask: "Do you know that woman?"
He didn't want to lie to her, and he didn't want her to know too much about the past, so he closed his eyes and meditated, pretending he didn't hear it.
Lu Yin pressed against his chest, tried to recall, and suddenly remembered that snowy night, when she was at the gate of the police station, she saw Tan Wei leading two people out. That day she was wearing a red padded coat, with neat short hair, A fuzzy and soft facial features are reflected.
It was also that night that she learned her identity from Tan Wei.
***
Life finally returned to the track before leaving. Lu Yin took a public holiday and asked for leave after the year, and her work piled up like a mountain. She was busy for more than a month before she was free.
I ran into Chen Rui in the corridor. If the two had no official contact, it would be difficult for them to meet each other. Since they confirmed their relationship with Lu Qiang last year, she told Chen Rui frankly that he was also knowledgeable, and they didn't bother with each other after that.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Rui said that he had a girlfriend who met on a blind date during the vacation.
Lu Yin was really happy for him, but she couldn't help but lamented that time passed so fast, a name suddenly popped up in her mind, when Chen Rui first fell in love with her, she and Liu Zecheng had just broken up, originally thought that apart from him, she would never meet someone she really liked again People, even if they meet, their feelings must not be as deep as this.
A year passed in a flash, and there was another person beside her, and her initial thoughts also quietly changed unconsciously.
Lu Yin smiled, walked to the end of the road, pushed open the window, outside the window was the swaying treetops, touched it with her fingers, the branches were already stained with greenery, the spring breeze was warm, it was a new year.
She breathed lightly, stood for a moment, and sent a message to Lu Qiang.
Lu Qiang is on day shift today, and he works as usual.
Lao Li's daughter gave birth, and the husband and wife were busy taking care of it, so they resigned early and went to other provinces. A few people from the community property have left one after another. This job is not very interesting. Now that he is not alone, Lu Qiang has already planned for the future, and began to think about other ways.
The security booth temporarily recruited a newcomer, a kid from the countryside, ten years younger than Lu Qiang, simple and honest, honest and competent at work.
Lu Qiang lived in Lu Yin's house, and he had paid for the house in the market for three years, so he simply sublet it to him at a lower price. The child was grateful in his heart, yelling one big brother at a time, rushing to do all the heavy and tiring work.
On this day, he changed shifts with Lu Qiang on time, and Lu Qiang and Lu Yin made an appointment to eat outside.
There is a new shopping mall on Qufu Road. It has five floors. It is a medium-to-high-end consumption level. The restaurant is on the top floor. After two people eat, they go down from floor to floor. The fourth floor sells bedding, kitchen utensils and tableware. Astonishing.
Lu Yin looked at him and blinked mischievously.
Lu Qiang asked: "Want to buy?"
She shook her head: "Just look, the price is too expensive."
"It's not that I can't afford it."
"It's not necessary to be able to afford it. Besides, there is nothing lacking in the house. No matter how well-built it is, it is not my own house."
Lu Qiang raised his eyebrows: "Hint me?"
Lu Yin brushed her broken hair behind her ears, her cheeks flushed, "You're thinking wrong, I don't mean that," she paused, and said clearly: "Even if we want to buy a house in the future, we have to pay half of it each. I'll let you take it yourself."
He likes this topic, so he teased her and said, "Try around the bush and propose marriage to me?"
Lu Yin's mind was stabbed in half, and she muttered: "I'm not young anymore."
I don't know if Lu Qiang heard it, but at the same time, he was embarrassed and angry at his frivolous tone just now. A little bit decadent and a little bit lost, she turned her head slightly, and for a moment, she lost her mind to speak.
When the two left the shopping mall, Lu Yin didn't cooperate well, so Lu Qiang took her into his arms with a little effort.
As night fell, the starry sky overhead faded, and the city lights were dazzling, reflecting on the face, covering the original color of the face.
Walk slowly along the street.
Lu Qiang asked: "Does my mother know what the package is?"
"… have no idea."
"Account book."
Lu Yin was taken aback.
Lu Qiang said: "Don't think about it blindly, you shouldn't be the one to worry about."
"What's the meaning?"
"I have no education, no job, a bad past, and a criminal record, no matter how I look at it, I am not good enough for you." He kissed her sideburns: "I got you with my face, so I should worry about it. "
Lu Yin pursed her lips, and there was no obvious fluctuation in his mood.
He immediately asked, "When did you get the certificate first?"
"… ah?"
Lu Qiang said: "My son's name is always justified."
Lu Yin didn't understand: "Where did the son come from?"
Lu Qiang smiled: "Our frequency is also fast."
