After leaving the phone booth, Qin Guanglin took a deep breath.
The weather was too cold, the snow had not yet melted, and white cold mist spit out from his mouth and drifted into the air.
Anyway, he felt much more at ease.
Walking back downstairs, he turned his footsteps and continued to walk until he returned home. Mother Qin was frying dried fish. She poked her head out with a shovel and said, "Why not?"
"I went shopping with my little... friend."
"kid?"
"friend."
Qin Guanglin responded and went straight into the studio.
"Are you eating here at noon?" Mother Qin shouted towards the closed studio door.
"Don't eat."
"oh."
After getting the answer, Qin's mother returned to the kitchen with a shovel and continued frying her own small dried fish.
Qin Guanglin sat in front of the drawing board and changed to a piece of plain paper, holding a pen to think for a while, writing and drawing on it, occasionally stopping to think for a while with his eyes closed.
More than half an hour later, a messy mind map appeared on the drawing board.
He tapped his forehead with a pen, and after a while, he drew a circle around the word 'sedation medicine'.
— Why not be mentally unstable.
Putting everything together, Qin Guanglin frowned and came to this conclusion.
It is true to buy duck feet in the middle of the night, and it is true to make phone calls.
It is likely that in the process of buying duck feet, I saw a phone booth and ran to make an emergency call-very funny, but this is the most reasonable explanation.
Besides, he really couldn't figure out why a good-looking person would run out at midnight and make an emergency call for more than a minute in the phone booth, and then buy a duck paw and go upstairs as if nothing had happened.
are you crazy
… are indeed sick.
This would explain why she didn't tell the truth - no one who secretly did such a wicked thing would want to let close people know... unless there is something wrong with the head.
I need to have a good chat with He Wu...
Qin Guanglin threw down his pen, tore off the paper on the drawing board and tore it into pieces, crumpled it into a ball, put it in his pocket, opened the door and went out.
"Do what? Give me some."
Qin Ma looked at him in confusion, "Didn't you say you won't eat it?"
"Did you say anything?"
"...I didn't do yours, go out and eat."
"oh."
Qin Guanglin strolled back to Nanfei Road with his pocket in his pocket, casually ate some steamed dumplings at the Shaxian Hotel, threw the shredded paper balls into the roadside trash can, and went upstairs to catch up on sleep while yawning.
It's really hard not to sleep all night.
When I woke up again, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Why don't you get into bed and squeeze him awake? When you saw him wake up, you touched his forehead and asked, "Have you been sleeping since morning? Or just took a nap?"
"Take a nap."
Qin Guanglin still hadn't regained his energy, so he yawned and hugged her tightly, "I thought you wouldn't come back until night after shopping."
"Just wander around... Here's your hat."
He might as well get up and take a brown cotton hat from the bedside, with two plush balls on it, and her yellow one is barely a couple's style, "I can't find the blue one... just this one too."
"Okay, it's good."
Qin Guanglin took it and tried it, put it aside and looked at the time, saw that it was past four o'clock, got up and said: "Go to my house for dinner, my mother asked you when I went there at noon, it's okay if I don't take you back My meal."
"It's not that exaggerated."
Why didn't he have any objections, sat up again, put on his shoes, and went downstairs with Qin Guanglin.
"Where's my key?"
Qin Guanglin asked suddenly.
"Here, do you want to drive to buy groceries?" Why not take out the car keys from the bag and hand them to him.
"No... I'll take something."
Qin Guanglin climbed into the car, looked back at He Wu who was standing on the side of the road, took off the driving recorder and put it in his pocket, then picked up the recipe she put in the back seat yesterday, closed the car door again, and went to hold her hand .
"Let's go."
"I forgot to take it up yesterday... Do you want to pass it on to your mother?" He Wu asked.
"Let her hold it to pass the time. Anyway, she scratches on the top of the food every day. She must like it."
The two walked around the vegetable market arm in arm as usual, and returned to Qin's house with the vegetables. Why not go into the kitchen to cook, Qin Guanglin handed the recipe in his hand to Qin's mother, turned around and entered the studio and locked the door behind him.
Although it is speculated that He Wu may be under too much mental pressure and some inexplicable behaviors, but it is still necessary to make sure again - he asked He Wu to drive out in the morning, that's what he thought.
Shopping with Xiaoqing... He intuitively felt that it was not that simple.
Turning on the recorder, Qin Guanglin found out the time of this morning, turned on the double speed and began to watch, feeling a little uneasy and a little guilty in his heart.
Seeing someone else's driving route is tantamount to peeping.
On a more serious level, it's distrust of your partner.
Ten minutes later, the trace of guilt in Qin Guanglin's heart disappeared without a trace, and he raised his arms and looked closely at the picture on the screen.
That big garbage dump... 116 Heyuan Lane!
The place I went to yesterday.
He frowned and looked at the motionless scene. There were only a few pedestrians passing by occasionally. Why didn't he even get out of the car, parked beside the garbage dump for more than 20 minutes, then reversed the car and left.
The car drove all the way to Beicheng, picked up Gu Xiaoqing who was dressed thickly, and then turned to Shengtian Plaza, why not talk and laugh with Gu Xiaoqing and leave the parking lot, a few hours later Gu Xiaoqing was holding a shopping bag and holding milk tea, He might as well take the brown hat, get in the car together, send Gu Xiaoqing back to Beicheng, and then drive back to Nanfei Road.
Fast-forward to finish the day's itinerary, Qin Guanglin turned the time back to the section of Heyuan Lane, looked at the garbage dump on the screen and fell into deep thought.
What is she doing here
Everything else is normal, only here it feels inexplicable, just like the phone call last night.
Could it be that she is still a child lover? Just to take a look at that small garden? Stalking
A series of thoughts appeared in Qin Guanglin's head, he shook his head violently, put aside the messy thoughts, put away the recorder and went out.
"What are you making? It smells so good." Qin Guanglin leaned against the door of the kitchen to watch Mother Qin and He Wu busy.
"Can't read? Can't even do a favor." Qin Ma glanced at him, and was a little annoyed seeing his idle appearance.
It's good to be a girl, caring and sensible.
"Isn't it impossible to stand up... The kitchen is so big, you come out, and we can do it."
Qin Guanglin smiled and helped Qin's mother out, and rolled up his sleeves to help He Wu.
"Yesterday's little garden... How is her study?" He asked casually while cutting vegetables.
"Xiaoyuan? She's good at studying, like the top ten."
"Hmm... It looks cute. I didn't expect it to be good for studying."
"You like your daughter so much?"
He might as well throw the vegetables into the pot, make a sizzling sound, stir-fry a few times with a shovel, and continued: "We will definitely have some in the future."
Qin Guanglin tilted his head and said, "Are you so sure? What if it's a brat?"
He Wei paused for a moment, tilting his head and smiling at him.
"Then we will live forever."
