I build a magpie bridge for my current

Chapter 26

Yi Chen can't remember how the nightmare started.

He survives in a dark environment, not to mention shaving and not washing his face.

There is no big difference between day and night. Every now and then, Zhou Jing will come to help him wash his face, change his clothes, and try to talk to him.

He seemed very disrespectful.

After both his parents passed away, he didn't even arrange their funerals by himself.The driver of the big truck deliberately retaliated against the society. Nine people died and twelve were injured. Yi Chen's parents took a taxi to the station to see him, deliberately hiding it from him and giving him a surprise.

There is no need for Zhou Jing to pursue responsibility, the driver has already violated the law, he died, leaving a son who dropped out of high school, his family is already poor, and he cannot compensate.Yi Chen doesn't know much about these things, Zhou Jing has everything.

it's nothing.

Yi Chen told himself that nothing had changed. He forced himself to forget, thinking that the past had not happened, and the family still had the taste of when his parents were there. They just went, visited relatives, and would come back soon. , and maybe with a gift.

Yi Chen pushed open the door of the room, his eyes were hurt by the light, the sun was already shining outside, he thought, it was daytime.

He didn't look at the time anymore, time was meaningless to him.Every minute and every second passed by his side, he could feel it, but couldn't figure it out.

The world is like an illusion. After he realized that he had escaped, he realized that he was still deeply trapped in it.

He didn't cry, just numb, step by step, doing his own thing.Go to pick up the water, boil the water, wait for it to cool down, drink it, and pick it up again.Everyday meals are delivered to the door and placed at the window, so he can pick them up by himself.

He knew that Zhou Jing did it.

And he didn't want to owe Zhou Jing anything.

Someone came in.

Zhou Jing seems to always have the key to his house, no matter what he says, Zhou Jing will appear where he shouldn't be.

When Yi Chen saw him, he didn't react too much, went back to the room, plugged in the kettle, and sat on the bed.

Zhou Jing followed him in.

Yi Chen, who was wearing home clothes, became even thinner, his body was thinner, like a piece of paper flying away at any time.Zhou Jing didn't know what else he could say, as if his appearance here was to hurt Yi Chen a little more, but he had no other choice.

"Yi Chen." Zhou Jing called him by name, and he said, "Your neighbor's grandson is outside and wants to see you, see you?"

Yi Chen shook his head slowly.

"Okay." Zhou Jing said, "I just told them that you may not see each other, so let them go back first."

"Ah."

After Yi Chen finished speaking, he mechanically added, "Thank you."

Parents passed away innocently overnight, no matter who they are, it is difficult to accept this blow for a while.Zhou Jing experienced her mother's illness and death, but compared with what Yi Chen encountered, I'm afraid the pain is less severe. After all, she is young and has no deep understanding of life and death, and she doesn't know that she will never see her again after she dies. fact.

Zhou Jing didn't comfort him either, knowing it was useless, he poked someone's wound for no reason.All he said was, "I'll be with you every day."

As long as Yi Chen is in pain, he will accompany him in pain.How long will it take for Yi Chen to walk out, and how long will it take for him.

Although Yi Chen didn't know the time, it was already a month later when he really wanted to go out to meet the sun.

When I first started to reconnect with the society, I still felt deeply uncomfortable. I felt anxious when I went to crowded places, and my mind suddenly wandered when crossing the road.

Zhou Jing couldn't keep staring at him, so he sent someone to watch him, and told him to report to him immediately if there was any situation.

After another period of time, Yi Chen returned to normal on the surface, and even found a job.

The new job went well, and he provided board and lodging, and he was the director of operations.

He lives in the company's dormitory with three roommates. The roommates are seven or eight years younger than him. They are polite brothers and funny people. They make Yi Chen laugh every day, chasing and fighting in the room, adding a lot of anger.

When Zhou Jing called him, he was watching two of his roommates cook, and one was in charge of filming.He went to the balcony to pick him up, and Zhou Jing asked him where he was and why he wasn't at home.

Because of being busy, Zhou Jing didn't go to Yi Chen for more than a week, and didn't know about his new job.

Yi Chen thanked him for his help, and was about to return it. He said that the shopping mall was very close to his residence, and he would wait for him there.

"Are you going back?" Zhou Jing suddenly called out when he said this, "Ah—" followed by a loud noise, which stopped abruptly.

Yi Chen's heart trembled suddenly, and many guesses lingered in his mind. His voice trembled a little, and he called him softly, "Zhou Jing..."

Zhou Jing.

He has no more thoughts, only eager to hear an answer.After a while, a voice came, and Zhou Jing said, "It's okay, I'm still here, it's okay, my phone fell, Brother Chen..."

A false alarm.

Yi Chen asked him, "How soon will you be there?"

"Before five o'clock." Zhou Jing even smiled when he spoke.

Yi Chen arrived 10 minutes earlier. When he saw Zhou Jing, he saw gauze on his head and bruises on his cheeks. He naturally remembered the phone call just now.

"Let's go, Brother Chen, where to eat? What do you want to eat?"

"what ever."

A few days ago, Yi Chen was used to eating light food, and even a little bit of oily smell made him want to vomit. Zhou Jing knew about it, so he said to eat vegetarian dishes.When he left, Yi Chen asked him, "How did you do it?"

"This one……"

Zhou Jing was embarrassed to say it, he hesitated for a while before saying, "The road was being built in front of your house, and I fell into a ditch when I was leaving..."

The fall was not light, and after spinning around, lying at the bottom of the pit, the first thing to do was to find the phone.

Yi Chen looked down at him, his hands were scratched, sterilized, and applied with lotion, the wound still hurt.

Zhou Jing was afraid of pain and illness.I used to carry it by myself when I was sick, but after getting well with Yi Chen, I learned to act like a baby and use my illness for my own benefit.

It's just that time has passed, and now he can only smile at Yi Chen, and said casually: "It's scratched."

When he arrived at the restaurant, Yi Chen sat down and asked Zhou Jing to order. When the food was served, he asked, "How much should I pay you back?"

Zhou Jing still didn't know what he was asking.

Yi Chen said, "Before, the money you spent...to deal with those things..."

Zhou Jing's heart twitched, and she asked after a while, "Do you have to pay it back?"

Yi Chen didn't answer and fell silent.

Zhou Jing smiled wryly, "Then can I pay back what I owe you?"

"You don't need to pay it back." Yi Chen said, "I don't hate you."

They had never met Yi Chen when he was traveling.When Yi Chen returned home, he encountered drastic changes. Although he saw Zhou Jing, he was still a stranger.Now that I have returned to society again, I feel like a world away.He travels far away when his parents are there, and when his parents are gone, traveling far away is meaningless.

And Zhou Jing, has always been that Zhou Jing, never changed.

Zhou Jing knew that today might not be so happy. When he left Yi Chen's hometown, he fell so hard. When he was spinning, he wondered if Yi Chen would feel sorry for him, but he only thought for a moment, and dismissed enough absurdities. idea.

So what, it's not for him to bear everything by himself.Bitterness is bitterness, no matter how hard it is, you have to follow what Yi Chen said, and settle the accounts clearly. It is best to calculate that the two of them are clear and owe nothing.

"Okay." Swallowing the bitterness in her throat, Zhou Jing asked, "Can we go out to eat often after that?"

"I don't think so."

Zhou Jing thought that after that incident, Yi Chen's attitude should soften, but in fact it didn't.The stone in his heart was smashed down, and the late death sentence was pronounced. There was no sign of loosening, and no change was seen. He presumably was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid that the rope would strangle his neck again.

How could it be, Zhou Jing thought, the rope was obviously wrapped around his neck, and if Yi Chen became more ruthless, he would suffocate.The farther Yi Chen went, the tighter the rope became, and sooner or later he would suffocate to death, sooner or later.

But Yi Chen no longer looked back at him.

No matter how much he cries, pleads, touches people with affection, or threatens and lures, all kinds of methods are useless, and he has suffered a crushing defeat.

"I'll go back and ask someone to list the details." Every sum of money, every sum of money he advanced, Yi Chen will return to him.

Even though Zhou Jing thinks that he should soften Yi Chen's heart after accompanying Yi Chen through that difficult time.But the facts are in front of our eyes, and no one can do anything about it.

He didn't intend to use his mouth to say illusory love words anymore.

He comforted himself that at least the current Yi Chen could eat and not resist meeting him, that was enough.
