Yun Jin was struggling to walk in the middle of the desert with no edge in sight. The scorching sun made her feel as if she was about to turn into ashes in the next second. She was very thirsty and her head hurt. cactus. But something vaguely called her ahead, she had to keep walking, keep walking, and then gradually dried up...
"Cheng Zheng...Give me water..." In the dream, she unconsciously uttered these words before waking up, and halfway back to consciousness, she began to smile wryly, tugging on her chapped lips, causing a tingling pain. She was confused, it was no longer the days when the two of them were rubbing each other's ears and temples, where was the person who was beside her who was muttering and pouring water for her? It's just that these words blurted out so naturally, so naturally she made her mistakenly think that he was still lying beside him when he opened his eyes.
Just when she was holding her dizzy head and wanted to get up to find water, a cold glass was shoved into her hand without tenderness.
"You are the queen mother, and you know that you are enslaving people when you wake up." This kind of rude words won't come from someone else's mouth except him.
Yun Jin watched him for a few seconds, her consciousness replaying in her mind like slow motion. Yes, in the hospital, she and her uncle had just sent mom away. After the nurse pushed her away, she squatted there, feeling that the sky was getting brighter. Then he came and he said, "Cry, Yunjin." She actually cried in his arms until she couldn't cry anymore. So far, the sadness of losing a close relative has returned to my heart again.
The person standing beside the bed was stared straight at by her, and she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, "Your brain is burned out, look... watch me do... why."
Yun Jin unintentionally laughed at his sudden stammer, and looked around the room: "Where is this?"
"My house." He answered naturally.
"Which home is yours?" Yun Jin frowned slightly.
Cheng Zheng glanced at the ceiling, "I'm not an adopted child, I only have one parent and one family."
Yun Jin's response was to get out of bed immediately, ignoring her own sense of powerlessness.
"There are no ghosts in my house, why are you scared like this?" Cheng Zheng held her down angrily.
Yun Jin sighed, "I have to go to the hospital, my mother just passed away, and there are still a lot of things to do... By the way... Where's my uncle?"
"It took me a whole day to think about your mother. If I was waiting for you, it would be too late. Don't worry, your uncle has already settled the formalities in the hospital. As for your mother... According to your uncle's wishes , is to be cremated at the crematorium in the provincial capital first, and then go back to your county town to handle the rest." I don't know if it was because of her mother's loss, the tone of his last few words was much softer.
Yun Jin lowered her head, it turned out that she had slept for so long. When I woke up, my mother was really separated from her forever. "Where is Uncle now?" she asked.
"Go back first. You have been having a high fever. You have been lying in the hospital for a long time. I see that you are fine, but you have been in a daze, so I will send you back to my house to rest first."
Yun Jin stroked her hair with her hand: "Oh, that's it, then thank you, I think I'd better go back first, it's not good for your parents to see when they come back."
Cheng Zheng's tone suddenly became sharp: "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of, you haven't seen my parents, they will eat you?" "They're not at home anyway."
"But I still have to get back as soon as possible, my uncle is already very tired." Yun Jin tried her best not to let Cheng Zheng misunderstand her meaning.
"Then you have to eat before you leave, and I'll take you back." His tone couldn't be refuted.
Yun Jin didn't fight him either, she got up from the bed, her stomach was really hungry, there was no need to compete with her body. When she got up, she took a look at the whole room. It was the first time she had known him for so long. At first glance, it is known that it is a male living space. The furnishings are not complicated, but the ingenuity of the design can be seen everywhere, and the cleaning is also very clean. In fact, Cheng Zheng is a very simple person. As long as the living is comfortable and clean, the rest of the requirements are not very high, so the two also had a happy time in their original dwelling.
Cheng Zheng handed the medicine to her, she silently swallowed the glass of water just now, and followed him out of the room. There were already meals and tableware in the restaurant. Cheng Zheng sat down first and emphasized, "Let me tell you first, Aunt Chen has returned to her hometown. The food is takeout ordered downstairs, so you can eat it as soon as you can."
Yun Jin wasn't as picky about what he was eating, she just nodded slightly after hearing it, sat across from him, and picked up the bowls and chopsticks. The memory of the last time the two of them ate face-to-face alone was as far away as a previous life. Yun Jin took a chopstick and put it in her mouth. One sip, make sure it's not your emotions that affect your taste. She wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything. She stretched her chopsticks to another plate of something she didn't know what it was. After chewing a few times, she quickly poured herself a bowl of soup. She just took a sip. This time she couldn't bear it. Stopped, he had to sigh, put down the tableware, and looked at Cheng Zheng, this guy actually didn't move, and focused on her with a strange expression.
"Cheng Zheng, where did you order takeout?"
"Sichuan people downstairs opened 'Shudi Renjia', is it okay?" He answered quickly, obviously expecting her to ask this question.
"You offended their boss or chef?"
"I'm not sick. Why, isn't it delicious?"
"It's hard to eat." Yun Jin was rarely so direct, she watched Cheng Zheng take a bite, and then cursed in a low voice.
"Can I understand that you are the chef of the 'Shu family'?" Yun Jin said as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Zheng's face immediately turned red, he quickly put down his chopsticks, grabbed the bowl from her hand, and hurriedly said, "Forget it, I'll go downstairs and buy it." After speaking, he ran back to the room to get it. key.
Yun Jin looked at his hurried back, and said in a low voice, "Cheng Zheng, why are you suffering?"
His back froze, "This is my business."
Yun Jin also stood up. Actually, I just wanted to say that I… am very happy. "
Cheng Zheng turned around slowly, "That... it's actually a weird recipe, I swear I strictly follow the procedures and steps..."
"Is there any materials in the kitchen? I'll do it."
Yun Jin was busy in the kitchen, Cheng Zheng leaned on the door frame and looked at her without saying a word. Old memories come back little by little.
Yun Jin smashed the eggs into the pot and felt a pair of hands wrapped around her waist silently, followed by his breath, hot behind her.
"Let go, Cheng Zheng."
"impossible."
Yun Jin was speechless. It seems that they have been repeating this sentence since they met: Cheng Zheng, let go - I won't let go. But when he really let go of her, she hurt more than anything.
"No matter what reason you use, I won't let go again." His voice came out over her shoulder, muffled.
"But if you don't let go, the eggs will be mushy."
