Chapter 17
"Are you at my house?" he asked.
Lin Qi still had the lingering smell of perfume in his nose. He took a deep breath, feeling the illusion that the smell had penetrated into his bone marrow, and replied, "Yes."
He thought of the time difference, and did some random calculations, and found that it was late at night at Helan's side, and it was midnight when he was sleeping with no distinction between personnel and personnel.It's hard to say why He Lan can reply to his message so quickly, and still make an overseas call at this moment.
"I remembered that I haven't given you roses today." He Lan said, a trace of sleepiness finally appeared in his voice, he paused for a while, and then said, "Go to the top floor and pick it yourself, okay?"
……What's the meaning?Lin Qi wanted to ask clearly, but he thought it was what he thought.
He Lan Mingxu rubbed the corners of his eyes almost on the other side of the earth, rubbing away the heavy sleepiness.Outside the half-drawn curtains, the sky was pitch black, with only one or two dimly lit lights flickering in the distance, which probably belonged to the young people who carnivaled all night.
In fact, he had just fallen asleep.Ever since he came here, there have been endless affairs for him to make decisions, and his rest time is only condensed on the transportation from one place to another.But when Lin Qi sent him a message, he didn't want to sleep.
He quit the call and returned to the chat interface with Yueqing. Yesterday Yueqing sent him a photo, which was Lin Qi's medical record card.
Emergency surgery, eleven stitches on the palm.
Just thinking of this, Lin Qi's low voice suddenly came from the phone, and he asked in a whisper, "Maybe you know where it is?"
He Lan put the receiver close to her ear, and heard the rustling voice, Lin Qi should be talking to Ke Ke, that's why her voice was so low, and it was so unbelievably gentle.
A submissive meow followed by the door opening.
Here he is.
The garden on the top floor is very elegantly designed, and the next floor is He Lan's apartment, so Lin Qi went up from the built-in stairs.Just after he finished asking that sentence, Keke had jumped to the ground lightly, clawing at the glass door with its claws.
Many climbing vines were planted in the open-air garden, surrounded by low flower trellises, among which the wisteria orchids were the most, and Lin Qi walked around in a small place.The flower beds on the ground are well arranged, including roses, clivia, and cloud lilies, all of which are vibrant and charming. The entire roof is like another paradise-like world of flowers and flowers.The vanilla is sandwiched with various flowers, which is also very beautiful visually.
Lin Qi finally stopped in front of a pot of hydrangeas.
Among all the bright purples and reds, this potted flower looks particularly inferior, even the flowerpot is an inconspicuous old dark gray.Compared with other flowers, it looks like a disgraced country girl among a group of beauties with natural beauty.
"Put the flower scissors on the table at the entrance. If you find it troublesome, just pull one out yourself." He Lan didn't know what he was doing, and even the cat meowed continuously, so he reminded him aloud.
"I remember that I seem to have thrown this thing away." Keke kept barking, and finally Lin Qi was willing to pay attention to it, and stretched out his fingers to touch its wobbly little head.He Lan made a suspicious voice, and Lin Qi said casually: "The hydrangea on your head, I remember throwing it away when I got angry."
He Lan said: "Obviously, I picked it up."
Lin Qi didn't know what to say, and cursed again: "Are you sick?"
He Lan woke up in the middle of the night with a particularly good temper, obediently scolded: "Yeah."
He said: "At that time you were angry and said to break up, I thought it was only temporary, who knew..." Who knew it was really parted ways.He Lan kept these words in her stomach, thinking of Lin Qi's medical record card, her heart quietly ached.
After all, although the young Lin Qi has a surly temper, he has always been self-willed and reckless in small things, and he broke up because of such a small thing. He still can't believe it.
"Why do you think it's temporary? I'm so angry that I want to kill you." Lin Qi laughed mockingly, "Why should I give you things to wear on others? Just because I give you a lot doesn't mean it's cheap. Even if it is left in your house to rot, it is better than being spoiled by others!"
He Lan was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Don't be angry, we are so far apart." He might have something to say, but he didn't say it.Lin Qi squeezed the phone, and the unreasonable anger was extinguished by the soft calls, so he remained silent. In the silence, the two were guessing each other's mood.
"If I was in front of you, you could beat me up to calm down, but I'm not here, so don't be angry." He Lan spoke slowly, every word seemed to be thought over and over again, and he spit out every sentence carefully. Slowly said, "Lin Qi, don't think about anything else. You just need to know that I really like you, and I will always be there."
If there is any way to prohibit others from confessing their love, Lin Qi must use it on He Lan.This person is too foul, once he knows where Lin Qi's weakness is, he will try to pull out the useless spikes stuck to his body time and time again, but seeing that He Lan is about to get close to his fragile heart, Lin Qi doesn't care at all. law to prevent.
Lin Qi had no choice but to give in, because even if he tried his best to bite this man's hand, all he was willing to leave were tooth marks and no more blood.
The phone call didn't mention anything else, and Lin Qi got more suspicious and didn't send any photos to He Lan at all.So his injury should be kept a secret, which is more to his liking, because he is extremely unaccustomed to being cared about, and it will save another layer of goosebumps.
Chenyue Company took Lin Qi's sick leave, because the right hand was injured, so the design was put on hold.Lin Qi lay at home all day playing with the cats, and Keke was very obedient in his house, and didn't break anything at all.
But one day He Lan belatedly sent him a WeChat message: "My avatar is not a hydrangea..."
Lin Qi opened the screenshot of YOU'RE and sent it to him. After a while, he struggled to death: "This is not me, what is this?"
Lin Qi was annoyed to death. He Lan Mingxu was so fucking ostentatious. He made a phone call and scolded as soon as he connected, "Isn't this what Qingzhou club you are from? Since you want to pretend to be a bitch, send a promotional email." When you use your mother's personal email address?!"
He Lan was scolded face to face, but instead laughed and said, "Okay."
In the afternoon, I received a call and asked Lin Qi to go downstairs to pick up the courier, but he hadn't done any online shopping recently, so thinking about it gave him chills.When signing, the courier brother was so frightened that his legs were weak, Lin Qi gave him the pen, and took the heavy package to the elevator.After thinking about it, he thought that it might not be from the Lin family animal, but the sender's name was completely unfamiliar.
Carrying the package upstairs, the opposite person was moving. The host saw Lin Qi and waved to say hello: "Mr. Lin, good afternoon."
Lin Qi and this family are just nodding acquaintances, others think highly of him and call him Mr. Lin.He also respected the other party, and nodded before entering the door, which was regarded as a polite response.
Keke jumped up and down on the sofa, and then climbed onto Lin Qi curiously, observing what he was doing as if checking his territory.Lin Qi pushed its forehead, and took the key to poke open the courier box with difficulty.The tape was torn off, revealing a box of external wound medicine, which was full, as if it was about to jump out at any time and throw a plaster on his face.
Lin Qi said clearly, "Your father bought it."
Keke gave a gentle cry, indicating that it knew.
After seven days, the game came to an end in a blink of an eye. Lin Qi discovered this while walking in the park one day.And the Helan people were still abroad, so looking back on these days, they didn't say much in total.
He sat down on the bench and the cat was very docile on his lap.Lin Qi stared blankly at the playful children in the sandpit of the community, wondering what answer he should give, and listed a few sentences in his mind, all of which felt unreasonable.
The children who were playing suddenly scattered in all directions, and one of them ran towards Lin Qi, his face was as red as a ripe apple, and he opened his mouth with a sword: "Uncle!"
Lin Qi squeezed one eye and tilted the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself, he is only 27 years old, what kind of uncle is he? !uncle? !He stared very gloomyly at the ignorant little boy, who was looking at Keke obsessively, and said, "Uncle, can you let me touch it."
"No, my cat loves to scratch people." Lin Qi flatly refused.
The little boy wrinkled his face into a bitter gourd, and said oh dejectedly, but he refused to leave, reluctantly still focused his attention on the kitten, and whispered: "I'll just touch it, and you can help me hold it down." Is the paw okay, just touch it."
Children probably have a natural affinity for strangers, and even corporate bullies like Lin Qi have become amiable "uncles" in their eyes.Lin Qi narrowed his eyes, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and said, "Okay, just one moment."
"What are you laughing at?" Someone asked him, the voice came from nowhere, with the smell of the journey and the ethereal feeling like in a dream.
Lin Qi's heart skipped a beat. In front of him was an open space, where a sycamore tree cut into the orange sunset light in the distance.As the voice drifted down from above, he raised his head and saw a familiar face turned upside down, with a hint of longing in his pupils.
Lin Qi held back that smile, and didn't let it turn into overly expressive happiness, and said: "I remembered one thing, we used to go to the flower and bird market to buy potted plants, and when you took off the mask, the child of the flower seller cried in fright .”
19-year-old He Lanmingxu was disciplined by his family to be strict with his words and smiles. His eyes were like knives and his temperament was like ice. His classmates dared not approach him lightly.When negotiating the price, He Lan took off the black mask, as if she was about to kidnap a child in the next second, and the five-year-old son was so frightened that he ran behind his mother and cried loudly.
He Lan also thought of this, lowered his head and traced the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and said with a light smile: "I used to pretend to be fierce on purpose, so that others would be afraid of me, why aren't you afraid?"
Lin Qi stopped talking, and lowered his head to grab the soft paws.The little boy had been carefully touching it for a long time, so he thanked him happily for going to find his little friend. Before leaving, he said crisply: "Goodbye, uncles!"
Lin Qi was very depressed. Seeing the small figure of the child running away, he blurted out, "Which bastard is this? Why do you call me uncle? No matter how bad I am, I have to be considered a 'big brother', right? Uncle?! He also It’s called the exit! I’m only 27, and I’m 27 in my prime!”
He Lan said quietly beside him, "It's already 27."
Lin Qi raised his eyebrows, and was about to vent his anger about being called uncle on He Lan, when this man suddenly leaned over and nibbled on his lips, lightly touching the water, coming and going like the wind.Lin Qi didn't even realize it, He Lan had already taken advantage of it, and jokingly whispered into his ear: "I thought it was only eighteen."
Lin Qi: "..." Then he gritted his teeth and said, "If it weren't for your cat being a living thing, it would have slammed into your face by now."
He spoke fiercely, but the roots of his ears were red.He Lan knew that Lin Qi had always been like this, and insisted on getting angry to cover up all his emotions, so he just smiled silently and went upstairs with him silently.
Lin Qi entered the password to open the door, and when he bent down to put the cat down, He Lan suddenly said, "Your password is my birthday."
"..." Lin Qi raised his eyelids impatiently, kicked on his shoes in the hallway, and said disdainfully, "I can use it any day I like, it's none of your business."
As soon as he kicked off a shoe, He Lan held his left hand, and then wrapped an arm around his waist. Lin Qi was carried by He Lan to the low cabinet next to him, with his back against the wall, his hands and feet, and his foreheads facing each other.Lin Qi rarely cursed or got angry, and looked at He Lan fearlessly with a pair of bright black eyes.
He Lan clasped Lin Qi's clenched left hand with his fingertips, and asked softly, "It's none of my business, so why are you still so nervous?"
