"Gui!" Scar climbed up the fence in twos, then turned in, squatting in front of the little boy, supporting his shoulders. He was startled, and drew back. Scar took off his helmet and looked at the little boy in front of him happily: "Don't be afraid, it's Dad."
Achai only met with his father a few times a year, nervously trying to break free, was hugged by the scar, "Achai, let's go see grandma together."
"I still have to go to school." The little boy twisted, "Grandpa won't let me go with anyone else."
"It's not someone else, it's Dad." Scar was a little anxious, trying to lift his son to the concrete pillar of the wall. A Guai moved his hands and feet and refused to cooperate.
"Teacher, teacher, that uncle is going to take Achai away!" A child turned and ran towards the classroom.
"Achai, obedient!" Scar tightened his son, but Achai was still struggling, and he couldn't figure it out with the strength of one hand. Seeing that the child was about to come out of the classroom with the teacher, Scar was anxious, and he had to throw his son vigorously across the wall.
At this time, there was only a sharp brake sound. A black car galloped up and turned sharply at the intersection. The body swayed and shook, and it happened to stop next to the scarred motorcycle.
Chen Jiajun pulled the car door and strode over. He grasped the pointed head above the iron railing, raised his foot to step on the carved flower, and leaped his body. After supporting the platform above the concrete pillar with his palm, he sat firmly on the platform. He stretched out his hands: "Gui, your dad has some problems and needs help, can you go with us? Tonight, we will bring you back to find grandpa." His tone was soothing and sincere, and his expression soft.
Both father and son were stunned, and Scar came back to their senses, and lifted Achai high. The child was still writhing, Chen Jiajun hugged him in his arms, leaned forward, and jumped to the ground quickly and neatly. Scar also turned over and looked ashamed: "KC, this will involve you."
"Fortunately, you are the child's guardian, and it is not a crime." Chen Jiajun turned around and handed Achai to Scar. As he said, he kept walking and opened the door quickly, "Time is running out, let's go."
Ye Fei hasn't contacted Chen Jiajun for several days in a row. He sent a text message and did not reply. He always turned off when calling, and did not see his emails and Facebook messages. I couldn't help but call the shop. Chloe said that the boss was invited by other dive shops to investigate. The island is more remote, with outdated infrastructure, inconvenient Internet access, and unstable cell phone signals.
Ye Fei thought that he would go out to sea during the day and eat and drink with his partners at night, so he stopped calling. After more than a week, he felt vaguely anxious. He would receive his own text message. Isn't he too busy to reply to a message? In other words, the island is so closed, there is no signal tower, it is so primitive and wild. Thinking of this, she herself laughed. If Chloe hadn't said he was going to investigate, she really thought Chen Jiajun had staged a Robinson Crusoe.
Ye Fei spent her days like years. Friends asked her to sing at the birthday party. She was absent-minded when sitting in the KTV box. She took out her mobile phone to have a look after a while. Someone pushed her: "Why is Maiba so quiet today?"
She grinned reluctantly: "I have eaten a little bit when I'm full and hungry."
"You didn't eat much just now?"
Ye Fei raised his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows: "I'm afraid that once I speak, it will be your turn."
"I'm afraid you're afraid of you, come and come, what to sing, help you!"
"I'll do it myself." She sat down in front of the small screen, thought for a while, and turned out "Blooming Waves".
Everyone laughed at her: "This is not your style, how come you are getting upset when you go out!"
Ye Fei grabbed the microphone: "Let you envy, jealous, hate, and look at the scenery I see every day!"
The music sounded, a speedboat chopped the waves on the MV, and the colorful coral reefs were clearly visible underwater, and it seemed that the sound of the waves could be heard endlessly. Simple music that had no feeling before, but now it sounds so joyful and intriguing.
I want you to accompany me and watch the turtle swim in the water
Don't be afraid, you won't be lonely
I will always be by your side and make you happy
Ye Fei sang, pretending to swing his body happily, but kept looking at the phone on the sofa. The screen suddenly lit up, and she rushed over and stuffed the microphone into the hands of the audience nearby: "You sing first, I will answer the phone." Holding it in her hand, with his name displayed on it, Ye Fei was so happy that she opened the door and flashed away. Out, "Hey, finally remembered to call me."
He laughed: "It's very lively on your side."
"Friend's birthday, come to K song." Ye Fei hummed, "Have you ever heard of "Small Waves Blossoming"?"
"Yes, all Chinese tourists who come will sing." His voice sounded a little tired.
"Are you coming back today?" Ye Fei pouted, "Where did I go some time ago, and there was no signal from my mobile phone."
"There is a signal, not good."
"Then you won't call me back."
He slowly responded: "The waterproof bag is not tight, the phone is soaked in sea water."
"Ha! I make you laugh at me. It turns out that I am so confused." Ye Fei chuckled, "This shows that the level of the two of us is similar!"
He chuckled softly: "Didn't I be infected by you?"
Ye Fei talked to him about some trivial things that happened recently. After hearing the response there was not very positive, he said: "I heard Chloe said that the island is very remote, and there is no less toss on the road."
"It's okay."
"Forget it, don't hold on and chat with me. You take a good rest and call me when you have energy."
"Okay, there is something on hand, I have been busy for these two days."
"Yeah, pay attention to your body, smoke less, eat less instant noodles... Don't say I'm annoying." Ye Fei exhorted, "Oh, yes, I passed the primary election for that application, and I have to retest in two days. Although Not professionally related, but I can tell, hehe, I think it's quite promising!"
"Yes, you can speak the best, come on!"
"Set aside time in advance." Ye Fei repeated the forum date again, "You are not allowed to go rafting on any desert island."
The singing in the box comes over
Time hurried away without looking back, beautiful women became old women
Oh, then, at that time, I, I, I, and I were already a bad old man
Ye Fei hummed the song, and his heart relaxed.
Putting down the phone, everyone said they had robbed her of her song and asked her to sing another song.
"Ye Fei ordered a place she's been to, I'll also order one I've been to, let's sing together!" A friend went to Taiwan during the summer vacation and laughed, "There really is a place, it's called'Nuan Nuan'. ."
Delicate liking, the thickness of your palm
I feel hopeful for all difficulties
I know Nuan Nuan is in my chest
Ye Fei was really in a good mood this time, swaying his body following the melody, feeling that his chest was also warm, sweetness poured into the corners of his mouth and eyebrows, smiling so much joy.
"Why don't you tell Ye Fei, you may not be able to go next month." Qiu Meixin's voice sounded, she walked along the river bank and sat down beside Chen Jiajun, "Sorry, I heard you talking on the phone."
"It's okay." He curled the corner of his mouth. "Maybe things will be resolved by then." He made a cut on his brow bone, the scar has not healed, and there is also a small bruise on the corner of his mouth.
"You two are really reckless." Qiu Meixin frowned, "Scar does this, why don't you persuade him."
"It happened suddenly. If it's true... I'm afraid he will regret it forever."
"In such a small place, the power of the clan is stronger than the law. Scar is the father of the child, and he has custody in his hands. You have all been locked up for so many days. If it is really kidnapping, no lawyer can help you. ."
"It's really kidnapping. I stopped him in whatever I said." Chen Jiajun smiled, "Don't worry, Lawyer Wu will take care of it. Even if you bother you to run, I didn't expect Chloe to tell you."
"It's because I couldn't contact you, so I called the store to know that you are here." Qiu Meixin's voice lowered. Chloe made no secret of Scar and Chen Jiajun’s being detained by the police. First, he hoped to get Qiu Meixin’s help; second, Chen Jiajun made two calls on that chaotic and hurried morning, contacted the lawyer, and then Asked Chloe to keep Ye Fei secret.
Just to say, keep her secret. As if in a state of chaos, what he missed the most was her tranquility. Just now, he has been restraining his emotions, his tone is cold and forbearing, put down the phone, and a trace of imperceptible longing and loneliness crossed his face. Qiu Meixin was a little bit sad, thinking that he would always be his closest friend, who could help him solve problems, and be willing to share the joys and sorrows with him, but all this was not as simple as the simple smile of another girl.
Back on the island, Zheng Yunchang invited everyone to drink at the Monkey Bar. He greeted everyone with a smile and kindly said: "Come here, don't frown, it's best to come back in peace."
Several people have their own concerns and are not very interested.
Zheng Yunchang poured wine for them one by one, pushed Chen Jiajun a glass, and said in Chinese: "Buy a pair of firecrackers another day, and then go to worship God and wash away bad luck."
"I'm fine, it's okay."
"Hey, I know you don't believe this, but in business, you always have to win a favor."
Qiu Meixin also said: "Yes, you are not a citizen of your own country after all. If things are going to happen, there will be a risk of deportation, so be careful in the future."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything illegal." He smiled gently, "It makes you worry."
Scar did not understand their language, but he could guess that it was related to his own business: "I still want to leave for a while."
Everyone looked at him together.
"I know, there have been too many requests for leave recently."
"Don't think about it. During this time, stay with your mother at ease." Chen Jiajun patted him on the shoulder, "If you need anything, please tell me at any time."
"Thank you." Scar held up the wine in front of him. "After today, I won't drink anymore."
Chen Jiajun clinked glasses with him: "Well, I'll accompany you, I won't be drunk or go home."
"And me." The corners of Chloe's mouth curled up, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were drooping, and the smile on his face was a little reluctant. "Boss, I also want to ask for leave... Maybe, I should also go home and see my mother. "
"Chloe, you..." Chen Jiajun instantly understood her plan, frowning slightly.
"Thank you for this time, everyone for taking care of me." Chloe still smiled, his wet blue eyes like a puddle of sea water. Scar did not speak, Chen Jiajun knew that what he said was in vain.
The crowd dispersed in the middle of the night.
Qiu Meixin did not return to her place of residence. She took a bend in the garden of the resort and returned to the beach. On the quiet sandy beach, only the fine sound of the flicking of the sea can be heard, and the faint sky light is reflected on the undulating waves, surrounded by a layer of misty blue. She remembered that Jocelyn once said that the first encounter with Chen Jiajun was this kind of beach. A group of grumpy graduates inadvertently stopped him passing by in the game.
Of course, Qiu Meixin did not believe that there was absolutely no intention in this world. On the beach at night, even if you can't see the other person's face, you can still see his silhouette. His posture and temperament are hard to let people not pay attention.
Qiu Meixin thought that since Chen Jiajun bid farewell to her friends in the United States and returned to Southeast Asia alone, she should have realized that this day will come sooner or later, and someone will fall in love with him and be loved by him. What if she had come to him two years before that? She actually had many opportunities, but she never approached. Even if she went back to China to visit her family, she didn't know what reason she was looking for to travel a long distance to the island to find him.
She was afraid of revealing the first girl's thoughts. I don't even know what the people around me think or think. In the circle of friends who study together, Chen Jiajun is undoubtedly a different kind. Since he gave up Wharton to go to the island, his classmates and friends who had admired and admired him all sighed, feeling that he was impulsive and reckless. But what if she came at that time? Without scruples, before Jocelyn appeared. If she comforted him who had lost his sister and gave him happiness and warmth, what would happen now
Qiu Meixin sighed in a low voice, took out the bracelet in her pocket, and put it on her wrist, the color of a coral sea. She twisted her finger, grabbed the bracelet into her palm, and unknowingly, she had already walked to the entrance of the dive shop. When she left last time, she had thought that she would never come to this place again. Now I am back on the island, perhaps to say goodbye to this dream place and the person in the dream.
The door was locked, only a white night light was on in the corridor. Qiu Meixin hesitated for a moment, bypassing the shop, and couldn't go far, where Chen Jiajun lived. She raised her hand and knocked gently on the door, but no one answered. Qiu Meixin turned and left, the more she walked, the slower her pace, until she gradually stopped. She folded back, put her hand on the doorknob, and pressed down tentatively.
Just hearing a "click", a gap was exposed in the outer door.
The hall is empty, with motorcycle helmets and a few pairs of shoes on the shelves, not much different from a year or two ago. Two years ago, Chen Jiajun was injured while riding a motorcycle. Everyone came to visit him. During that time, she often went in and out of this house and helped him greet other friends. Everyone was chatting and laughing together, eating small Thai hot pot, drinking and chatting here. At that time, she was the closest person to him.
Whether it is a German female coach who cooperates with Chen Jiajun in the potential shop, or a local girl who sells souvenirs to him coldly, or is dignified and stable, or young and charming, he just responds indifferently. Many people are paying attention to him, but they haven't seen him paying special attention to anyone. For a long time, Qiu Meixin felt that after Jocelyn left, she was the only woman around him worthy of closeness and trust. His surging enthusiasm has probably burned out, and no matter who walks by his side, there is no way to walk into his heart.
Qiu Meixin whispered: "Jia Jun, are you there?" No response was heard. The door leading from the hall to the bedroom was hidden, her palms on it, her heart beating fiercely, very nervous, and she didn't want to go back. Pushing open the door gently, the air conditioner turned on very wide, Qiu Meixin took advantage of the moonlight coming through the window, picked up the remote control hung on the wall, and turned the air conditioner down.
Chen Jiajun lay down in his clothes, leaning on the bed, and the room was filled with a touch of alcohol. Qiu Meixin walked to the bedside, put down the bracelet, and looked at his face with very nostalgia under the cool light moonlight, feeling sore and faintly painful. She couldn't help raising her hand, and carefully brushed her finger across his brow bone. Hearing him in a drunk dream, he murmured: "Ye Fei."
Qiu Meixin's nose was sore.
The man in front of him was angry for a girl he had met not long ago, and for fear of her being sad, he stayed up and hurried back to the island overnight after drowning in Songxi. He even got rid of the shadow brought by Jocelyn, and calmly said to everyone that the love in his heart is love, and there is nothing to compare.
Qiu Meixin seems to have seen the cheerful, optimistic, chatting and laughing Chen Jiajun when he first met many years ago. He just became more calm and knows how to take care of others. The precipitation of years and the tempering of suffering made this man even more charming.
However, he really couldn't belong to her anymore.
Qiu Meixin once thought that she could face Chen Jiajun calmly, but when she saw his eyes looking at Ye Fei, she suddenly realized how envious and jealous Ye Fei she was. That was the identity she wanted most, she wanted all the love Ye Fei could get. In the previous eleven years, if she could accumulate such a little bit of luck, she was willing to use everything she has now to exchange this love, she should not have had any hesitations and worries, she would not be as sad and regretful as she is now.
Qiu Meixin's heart jumped hurriedly, panic about to pop out of her throat. She sat sideways on the edge of the bed, lowered her head, her lips lightly touching his. Chen Jiajun raised his hand and hugged her head.
Ye Fei stood in front of the mirror and sneezed.
Zhao Xiaoting, who came in from outside the bathroom, was startled by her: "Looking at the mirror in the middle of the night, her expression is so weird, mumbling, scary?"
Ye Fei squeezed a pile of prepared materials, adjusted her manners and expressions in the mirror, took photos from the left and looked at the right: "Tomorrow is the last round of interviews, I have to practice again."
"Don't you take a good rest and make sure your face is radiant?" Zhao Xiaoting yawned, "Are you going to look into the panda's eyes?"
