Chapter 16 Chapter 2 (4)
byThe works of art are like ordinary ones, they will be shattered with just a light touch, and they can't be pieced together again.
He just didn't stay by his side for such a short time, and such a dangerous thing happened. If the knife stabbed a little more in the direction of the chest, it would be too late.
The gloomy black crawled out of the dark closet, smiled fiercely, and crawled towards Chen Ju's body.
"Get out! Get out! Don't touch him!" Jiang Zhou pushed the doctor away and hugged Chen Ju in his arms, "Don't even touch him!"
"Master Jiang, Mr. Chen is awake. Don't hold him like this. It's not good for the wound." The private doctor said quickly.The body was too weak to pass out.
"Jiang Zhou, don't do this...it hurts..." Chen Ju made a difficult voice from his throat.
Hearing Chen Ju's voice, Jiang Zhou was stunned for a moment, and finally came back to his senses, his reason returned to his body, he looked at the weak man with a frowning face in his arms, a tear suddenly rolled down from the left eye socket, and slid down the corner of his eye to theHis chin landed on Chen Ju's face.
Feeling the hot and humid liquid, Chen Ju's eyelashes trembled, and she wanted to open her eyes to see the expression on Jiang Zhou's face, but her consciousness was quickly drawn into darkness.
The ambulance rushed over quickly, and Chen Ju was carried into the car on a stretcher and sent to the hospital.
As judged by the private doctor, although the wound was deep, it didn't hurt the vitals, but the blood flowed too much. Chen Ju's body was always weak and couldn't bear it, so he needed to recuperate for a while.
After hearing the news, Jiang Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his nervousness relaxed all the time. He staggered and sat on the bench. He stared at his palm, which had been trembling uncontrollably since just now.It was full of the man's blood, and it seemed that the warm touch still remained in his palm. When he recalled the scene in the room, his body shivered.
"Young master, that child was taken away by someone from another force, and the couple who were imprisoned, our brothers found that they were all gone twenty minutes ago." The bodyguard whispered.
Jiang Zhou, who had been keeping his head down, slowly raised his eyes, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Keep looking, and find out who those are."
"Yes, young master." The bodyguard said with a serious face.
"Have someone bring me a clean set of clothes." Jiang Zhou's expression returned to his usual indifference.
"Okay, I'll call someone to bring it over right away." The bodyguard said respectfully.
Chen Ju had a dream. In the dream, Jiang Zhou stood in front of him with a blank face, tears were streaming from the corner of his left eye, and there was a strong sadness in the dark eyes, which made Chen Ju's heart feel uncomfortable, and his eye sockets became hot.
He wanted to ask the man why he was crying, was it because of something sad?But his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't speak a word.
Why are you crying?It was obviously his fault that led to the death of his aunt. If he hadn't forced Jiang Zhou to agree to his agreement, if he hadn't forgotten the gift and delivered it earlier, wouldn't Jiang Zhou have time to save his aunt?
During this period of time, when he was quiet and empty, this idea would pop up. The more he thought about it, the deeper he sank. He couldn't accept staying in the same space with Jiang Zhou. Whenever he saw a man, he would think about thatHow did Jiang Zhou stay in that dark and narrow room for half a month, and what kind of mood did Jiang Zhou live with in the past five years.
All the spearheads are pointing at him, tell Chen Ju that it's all your fault, if it weren't for you, Jiang Zhou wouldn't have suffered from this, if it wasn't for saving you, mother would have left this house long ago, and she wouldn't be in the muddle-headed state she is nowappearance.
Perhaps, when Chen Yifa took out the blade, he was relieved, expecting the sharp blade to pierce his skin.
won't let go
He didn't block the knife for Jiang Zhou, but for himself.
The brain had already made a judgment at that moment and chose the easiest path for him.
Why should he survive?
why?
By the way, it was for his mother, who was still waiting for him to pick him up and rebuild a small house that belonged only to them.
But is mom really waiting for him?Does she really know herself?Is living like this a dignified life for my mother?
Every time we met, my mother looked at him with the eyes of a stranger, tearing and cursing, screaming and cursing him, all this happened in front of my eyes, but Chen Ju chose to ignore it.
He lied to himself that as long as he saved enough money and took his mother out, everything would be fine.
But will everything really get better?He has lied to himself for five full years, but nothing has changed. Mom has already forgotten who he is. The last time we met, although the scar on his forehead disappeared, the pain remained forever.
His mother's eyes full of strange emotions hovered in front of him, and he kept forcing himself to hypnotize himself not to care, not to think, to bury all the bad things and sadness deeply, so that as long as he was smiling, everyone would think he wasWell, then he will be fine, nothing happened.
Yes, don't think about it anymore, what that doctor Jiang Jin said was just sarcastic remarks as a bystander.
He wants to eat well, heal his injuries well, cooperate with Jiang Zhou in acting well, and then save enough money to pick up his mother and lead her to live a good life.
Chen Ju felt that his soul was pulled out of his body. He was floating in the air, looking at himself blankly. Is that the man standing opposite Jiang Zhou with tears streaming down his face?How could he not remember crying?It's just a little uncomfortable in his chest, he has long been used to this kind of discomfort, as usual every time, just ignore it.
Chen Ju wanted to stop himself and ask him what he was crying for, but he opened his eyes as soon as he opened his mouth and before the sound came out.
The light from the corridor shone in, and the ward was shrouded in dim light. In this darkness, Chen Ju saw Jiang Zhou. The man was sitting on a chair, with his long legs bent, his arms wrapped around his chest, and his head bowed down., frowning tightly.
Chen Ju didn't speak or move, and looked at Jiang Zhou quietly in this dim cover. The man's handsome face was much haggard, and a layer of blue beard grew on his chin, which added a decadent handsomeness.
Caught off guard, Jiang Zhou suddenly opened his eyes. The bottom of his dark eyes was bottomless, and he looked at Chen Ju deeply, like a wild beast hunting in the dark, flashing a shivering sternness in an instant.
Chen Ju was slightly stunned, and forgot to close his eyes and pretend to sleep for a while, but it was too late now.
"Are you awake?" Jiang Zhou slowed down for a few seconds before waking up. The sternness in his eyes faded away, replaced by surprise and worry. He stood up and turned on the light on the wall. In an instant, the room became pale and bright, with dazzling lightsChen Ju had no choice but to close her eyes, feeling a burning sensation in her eye sockets.
"How do you feel? Does the wound hurt?" Jiang Zhou asked, his tone was so gentle that he seemed to be a different person, "I'll call the doctor, just wait a moment."
Before Chen Ju could speak, Jiang Zhou hurried out. After a while, the doctor on duty came in with two nurses, performed some routine checks on Chen Ju, asked about the status, and left after confirming that there was no problem.
For a while, Jiang Zhou and Chen Ju were left in the ward. After Jiang Zhou heard the doctor said there was nothing serious, his nervousness finally relaxed. He slowed down and walked in front of Chen Ju.Chen Ju brushed her messy hair behind her ears, and said in a low voice, "Does the wound still hurt?"
Chen Ju leaned on the pillow without any strength in his body. He shook his head slightly, his throat was dry for a while, and he couldn't make a sound.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Zhou walked to the table, poured a cup of hot water, blew on it, tested the temperature of the water, and brought it over, as if to help Chen Ju up.
But when his hand just touched Chen Ju, Chen Ju's body suddenly became stiff, his face was pale, and cold sweat could even be seen oozing from his forehead.
Jiang Zhou was stunned, subconsciously withdrew his hand, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes, holding a water glass in his hand, he stood there at a loss for a moment.
After Jiang Zhou's hand was removed, Chen Ju regained his composure. He leaned on the pillow and panted slightly, his eyelashes fluttering with his breathing.
The ward was quiet for a moment, only the sound of Chen Ju's breathing was left. Jiang Zhou was silent for a while, and put the water glass by the table where Chen Ju could touch it. He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Drink the water."
Chen Ju regained his strength, stretched out his hand to take the water glass reluctantly, and gulped down the water in the glass in one breath. Under the infiltration of warm water, his dry throat finally felt better. He wanted to say thank you, but he still couldn't open his mouth.Make a sound.
Her throat seemed to be blocked, and she couldn't speak a word. Chen Ju's heart shuddered, her face turned slightly pale, and she tightly clenched the cup in her hand.
"Take a good rest and tell me if you need anything. If I'm not here, you can tell Wu Xin that they are outside and no one will approach you." Jiang Zhou regained his indifference and said in a deep voice.
Even if a man hates him, it doesn't matter, he wants to tie him by his side, so that no one can get close to the man or hurt him.
A man belongs to him alone, and no one can take him away, not even the man himself.
If you don't like his touch, you can seek medical treatment, and sooner or later it will return to normal.
These are nothing, as long as people are around, everything can be done slowly.
Chen Ju didn't speak, put the water glass on the table, leaned back on the pillow, pulled up the quilt and covered it, lowered his eyes, he didn't know where he was looking, those eyes should be following him, roundHuhu, full of anticipation and joy.
But now, the man is not only resistant to his touch, he is not even willing to give him a look. Jiang Zhou's heart seemed to be stabbed by someone, and his irritability surged. He couldn't bear it, stepped forward, and squeezedChen Ju's chin forced him to look up at himself.
When he met those empty and dazed eyes, Jiang Zhou's heart seemed to be hit by something, he was suffocated, and he was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses, lowered his face, and said in a low voice: "I'm talking with youYou talk, don't answer."
Chen Ju still didn't speak, a trace of panic even appeared in his eyes, his thin and thin shoulders trembled slightly, and he reacted resistively to Jiang Zhou's touch again.
Such a man made Jiang Zhou feel very frustrated. He didn't let go of his hand. Instead, with a gloomy face, he held the back of Chen Ju's head and kissed him forcefully.
The man's lips and tongue were trembling, very pitiful, but Jiang Zhou didn't stop, and his movements became more violent. He was like a wild wolf who couldn't find his way running around in the dark night, trying to force Chen Ju and himself with pain.Speak, even begging for mercy.
But no, Chen Ju was trembling all over, his fingers clenched his back tightly, and his nails were embedded in the wound on his back, but Jiang Zhou seemed to have no feeling, and kept asking for the man.
Suddenly, Chen Ju's breath became short of breath, and then her body fell limply into Jiang Zhou's arms, and the man fainted out of fear from his kiss.
Jiang Zhou hugged Chen Ju, stopped the punitive kiss, regained his sanity, and looked down at the man in his arms.
Tears remained in the corners of Chen Ju's eyes, and her face was almost transparently pale. Two small cuts were cut on her lips from the kiss just now, and blood oozes out.
The man in his arms was so fragile and flimsy, as if he would shatter if he exerted a little force. Jiang Zhou stared at the man with a look of bewilderment in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by firmness.
No matter what method or method he uses, he will keep the man by his side, and it is best to become unable to leave him, so that he doesn't have to worry about it.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of the man's eyes, Jiang Zhou gently put Chen Ju back on the bed, covered him with the quilt, and leaned over to kiss the tearful corners of the man's eyes.
The next day, Chen Ju woke up early in the morning. Without saying a word, he quietly leaned against the bed and stared out of the window sill.
There are four or five bodyguards standing at the door of the ward. Anyone who wants to come in, whether it is a doctor or a nurse, needs to be checked. Chen Ju is not that surprised by this. On the contrary, he seems to be used to it.Jiang Zhou will make it.
An hour later, Jiang Zhou's call would come on time, and Wu Xin would send it in. When the call was over, Wu Xin would take the phone away again, preventing Chen Ju from having any chance to contact the phone alone.
Chen Ju just put it to his ear to answer every call, and didn't say a word, and Jiang Zhou didn't speak. After a few calls, Jiang Zhou switched to video calls.
Facing Jiang Zhou on the screen, Chen Ju just casually held the phone and turned his face to look out the window.
"Is it so beautiful outside the window?" Jiang Zhou frowned, and whispered, "When I come back, I will take you outside to get some air."
Chen Ju still didn't speak and didn't respond at all. Jiang Zhou stared at the man on the screen with a serious expression. A few minutes later, Secretary Liu's voice sounded from the other end, and he said to Chen Ju: "I can go back at six o'clock, just waitI, do you know?"
After waiting for a few seconds, there was no response, and Jiang Zhou hung up the video call.
Secretary Liu was followed by a private doctor, and said worriedly: "The boss doctor is here, the wound on your back needs to be treated, otherwise it will be infected."
Jiang Zhou stared at the blacked-out mobile phone screen. A pair of tired eyes were reflected on the glass screen, which was very strange. He closed his eyes, opened them slowly, and gave a low hum.
"By the way, boss, Dr. Jiang Jin called today to inquire about Mr. Chen's situation." Secretary Liu said again.
"I see." Jiang Zhou just replied, and didn't say anything else, and Secretary Liu couldn't say anything else.
When the dressing was changed, the doctor said that the wound on Jiang Zhou's back was inflamed, and his body had been suffering from a low-grade fever. He needed to take medicine, otherwise the infection would worsen.
I know my wife can't talk anymore
Jiang Zhou's face was pale because he had just finished changing the medicine, and his shirt was open, revealing the wrapped white bandages. He nodded absently and said, "Okay, go back after you finish the medicine."
Not long after Secretary Liu sent the doctor away, Jiang Zhou received a call from the hospital.
"What did you say? Chen Ju doesn't want to eat?" Jiang Zhou's eyes turned cold, and he said with a serious face.
Wu Xin glanced at Chen Ju, who was sitting in a daze on the hospital bed, and said, "I didn't eat at noon, and my subordinates always thought that Mr. Chen had a bad appetite and wasn't hungry. Wait until now, and changed to a bowl of lighter food."Mr. Chen still refuses to take a bite of the porridge."
Jiang Zhou frowned and said, "I see, I'll go over later."
"Okay, young master." Wu Xin replied.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Xin looked at Chen Ju in the ward. The man sat like this for a whole day, as if he had merged with the things in the room.
It was already seven or eight o'clock after Jiang Zhou finished dealing with urgent matters. The winter night came quickly and early. He looked out of the window, and the city lights merged into a Milky Way of stars in the night, flowing slowly in the dark night.
He took the keys and drove to the hospital. On the way, he passed by the milk tea shop again. Last time, the milk tea he bought for men ended up being cooled and turned into some kind of solid-liquid mixture, which was thrown away.ending.
Even so, when he arrived at the hospital, Jiang Zhou still took a cup of milk tea and a piece of strawberry cake from the car. When he was approaching the door of the ward, Jiang Zhou couldn't help slowing down, subconsciously turned his head to look at the glass next to him, and tidied upLook at the clothes and hair.
"Good evening, young master." The bodyguard at the door bowed immediately when he saw Jiang Zhou.
"Yeah." Jiang Zhou nodded and asked, "Has he eaten anything yet?"
Wu Xin shook his head, and said in a serious tone: "No, apart from drinking some water, the nurse has already come over to give Mr. Chen some nutritional supplements."
"I see." Jiang Zhou whispered, pressed the doorknob, and pushed the door open.
The room was so quiet that it seemed to be cut off from the outside world. The man was leaning on the pillow with his eyes downcast, wondering what he was thinking, like a delicate doll, quiet and lifeless.
Jiang Zhou felt flustered inexplicably. He closed the door and asked, "How do you feel today?"
Chen Ju's eyelashes trembled, but she still didn't answer, just lowered her head.
Jiang Zhou was not angry, walked to the bed, glanced at the porridge on the table next to him, and asked, "I heard from Wu Xin that you haven't eaten all day because you have no appetite?"
Chen Ju was still silent, Jiang Zhou said to himself, stretched out his hand to open the dining table next to him, put small cakes and milk tea on it, curled the corners of his lips, smiled and said: "I bought what you like, although the doctorNo, but it shouldn’t be a problem to eat a little.”
The answer to Jiang Zhou was still silence, the man didn't respond at all, he was clearly in front of him, but he seemed to be far away, a sudden irritability rose in his chest, like a wild beast, clamoring, trying to calm his eyesThe man tore apart to see what was going on in his heart.
"You don't have to talk, just eat the food." The smile on Jiang Zhou's face dissipated, and he said coldly, "It's your choice whether you eat it yourself or I feed you."
Chen Ju finally reacted, his face turned pale slightly, he reached out to unpack the cake, but because he was shaking all the time, he did not open it after several times.
Jiang Zhou reached out to help Chen Ju unpack the box. Under his scorching gaze, Chen Ju picked up a spoon, scooped out a small piece of cake, and put it in his mouth.
The taste is usually very sweet, but at this time it seems to be chewing some kind of glue-coated substance, and his stomach churns, but because Jiang Zhou is watching, he can only take a spoon and stuff cakes into his mouth one by one.
It took him less than two minutes to stuff a piece of cake, and then he opened the milk tea again, gurgling and sucking it into his mouth, the milky liquid mixed with the sweetness of the cake, the nauseating feeling hit his head, and his stomach was strongly resisting, but still drinking in his mouth.
"Enough." Jiang Zhou said softly.
Chen Ju didn't seem to hear, she held the milk tea and continued to drink it, as if she was provocative.
"I've said enough!" Jiang Zhou waved his hand, and suddenly raised his voice, only to hear a crash, and the milk tea cup broke and spilled all over the floor.
Chen Ju maintained the original movement, looked at the broken milk tea on the ground, his eyes were full of fear, his face was pale, without a trace of blood, the next moment, he suddenly covered his chest, and vomited all of what he had just eatenAfterwards, he continued to vomit, as if he had to vomit out all his internal organs to feel better.
Jiang Zhou woke up with a start, and walked forward in two steps, reaching out to pat Chen Ju's back, but as soon as he approached, Chen Ju's body trembled violently, and tears fell down.
"Ah... ah..." Chen Ju was speechless, looked at Jiang Zhou in horror, and shrank back, because the action pulled the wound, bright red blood oozed out, staining the hospital gown red, his whole faceIt became pale, and there was no trace of blood on the lips.
A flash of panic flashed in Jiang Zhou's eyes, and he stopped, staring at the frightened and trembling man with burning eyes, slowly clenched his palms, then he walked to the door and said to the outside: "Call the doctor and nurse over."
Soon the doctors and nurses came to the ward, Chen Ju's mood eased a lot, and he leaned weakly on the hospital bed, the doctor re-bandaged the wound, checked Chen Ju again, confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, and hanged Chen Ju againBottle of nutritional supplements.
After everything was tidied up, Chen Ju also fell into a drowsy sleep. He was lying on the hospital bed, his face was pale and transparent, almost blending into the white sheets.
Thinking of Chen Ju's eyes and reaction when he looked at him just now, Jiang Zhou's eyes darkened, his face darkened, he went to sit next to the man, and stretched out his hand to hold that soft little hand.
He can wrap everything in his palm with one hand. Even though the man is already by his side, why does he still feel that something is missing?The hole in the heart became even bigger instead, and the howling wind passed through it, piercing the pain.
It's not enough, it's not enough for the man to stay by his side, he has to make the man completely inseparable from him.
Jiang Zhou took Chen Ju's hand, lowered his head and kissed gently on the back of his hand, his dark eyes glowed with coldness.
For the next three days, Chen Ju still didn't speak, neither ate nor drank, Jiang Zhou took Chen Ju back to his residence, and simply took all the company's work home to deal with, and stared at Chen Ju for three meals.
Although Chen Ju ate it cooperatively, she would spit it out every time she ate it.
Staring at the man who vomited again, Jiang Zhou's face was gloomy. When the servants cleaned up, he turned and left the room, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the number.
Jiang Jin was having dinner, and heard the man opposite complain that he was busy with work every day and didn't even have time to go out for a date, when the phone rang suddenly, he looked at the note, booed the man, and immediately answered the call.
"Master Jiang, I haven't contacted you for a long time. What's the matter?"
"Do you have time recently?" Jiang Zhou's deep voice sounded, revealing a trace of imperceptible fatigue, "I want you to meet Chen Ju, he's not doing well with you recently."
"Okay, tomorrow, I always have time." Jiang Jin agreed quickly, and after finishing speaking, the man across from him put down his knife and fork in displeasure, and he motioned over with a look.
After confirming the time, Jiang Jin hung up the phone, looked at the man opposite, and said kindly: "I'll just go tomorrow morning, and the afternoon still belongs to us."
Wen Yan wasn't very angry at first, but when he saw the man's warm and flattering eyes, the dissatisfaction immediately dissipated. He touched his chin, raised the corners of his lips, and said, "It's fine, but you have to give me some compensation."
Jiang Jin paused, a blush appeared on his fair cheeks, he looked to the side, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I promise you."
The next morning, Chen Ju slept for a long time, because he didn't eat, his brain and body were groggy all day long, and he didn't have any energy to think about other things except sleeping. It felt good, and Chen Ju liked this kind ofstate.
He waited for a while, and when it was time for breakfast, he put on his slippers and coat as usual, and came out of the bedroom. At this time, Jiang Zhou would be waiting at the dining table to have breakfast with him.
But there was no Jiang Zhou at the dinner table today, but a familiar face that he hadn't seen for a long time. When he saw Jiang Jin, Chen Ju's always calm face finally showed a wave of fluctuation.
"Long time no see, Mr. Chen." Jiang Jin pushed his glasses and smiled.
Chen Ju stood there, paused for a few seconds, walked to the dining table, pulled out the chair, picked up the sandwich and opened his mouth to take a bite, chewing slowly.
Jiang Jin stared at Chen Ju for a while, and when he was about to take a second bite, he said, "Mr. Chen, you don't have to force yourself if you don't want to eat in front of me."
Chen Ju paused, stopped chewing, lowered his head, and still didn't say a word.
"We are the same as before. If you don't want to talk, I will stay with you. These two hours belong to you. You can do whatever you want." Jiang Jin said calmly.
Chen Ju's eyes suddenly filled with heat, and big teardrops rolled down, pattering down on the plate.
For the next two hours, as agreed, Jiang Jin did not say another word, and sat there with Chen Ju, waiting for him quietly.
When the time came, Jiang Jin stood up and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, we will meet tomorrow, is that okay?"
Chen Ju lowered her head, paused for a long time, then nodded slowly.
Jiang Jin showed a smile on his face and said: "Okay, then we will see you tomorrow, I hope you can eat something tomorrow."
Coming out of the residence, seeing the circle of people around the door, the smile on Jiang Jin's face disappeared, and he frowned involuntarily and shook his head.
Jiang Zhou came over from not far away and said, "How is it? Did he talk to you?"
Jiang Jin stared at Jiang Zhou with a serious face, and said, "Master Jiang, didn't you think that Chen Ju didn't talk because he didn't want to talk to you, but because he couldn't talk?"
"What did you say?" Jiang Zhou was stunned, his brows furrowed, he was silent for a long while, and then he paused, "You mean, Chen Ju can't speak?"
aphasia
"Well, aphasia." Jiang Jin said in a serious tone, "This is one of the serious symptoms I told the young master before."
Jiang Zhou was stunned, aphasia, and Chen Ju's various reactions in the past few days appeared in his mind, as if his chest had been hit by a heavy object, the sour pain spread, and he was speechless for a while.
"Then, is that why he refuses to eat?" Jiang Zhou made a hoarse voice from his throat.
"Well, Mr. Chen has too many things hidden in his heart. Even if he chooses to ignore it, after a certain level, there will be physical reactions, such as aphasia and anorexia. Mr. Chen has reached a very serious level."Jiang Jin said seriously.
Jiang Zhou froze and didn't speak, the expression on his face was obscured for a while, and various emotions surged in his dark eyes.
Seeing Jiang Zhou's reaction, Jiang Jin sighed, glanced at the rows of bodyguards standing at the door, and said earnestly: "I know Young Master Jiang regards Mr. Chen as very important, but you have never tried to understandWhat does Mr. Chen really want."
"I suggest that the young master can get to know Mr. Chen well, know what he really wants, and what really bothers him. In addition, don't push him too hard, give him more time for himself, so that he can untangle Chen as soon as possible.That's all I can say about Mr. Jiang's knot, I hope Young Master Jiang can think about my words carefully."
After Jiang Jin finished speaking, he nodded at Jiangzhou, carried his bag, and walked towards the gate.
After Jiang Jin left, Jiang Zhou stood alone in the yard for a long time, and he didn't enter the villa until all the heat from his body dissipated.
He only took a small mouthful of the sandwich on the dining table, and he didn’t move a mouthful as usual. If it was the past, Jiang Zhou would feel irritable, even angry, thinking that Chen Ju was provocative, and he wanted to fight in this way just to leaveOwn.
Although he refused to admit it, Jiang Jin, the psychiatrist, was right. He had never really understood a man, he just imposed his own ideas on him, wishing that he could return to his previous appearance and regain his love with love.Looking at himself with affectionate eyes.
Walking up the stairs to the door of the bedroom, Jiang Zhou didn't push the door open directly, but chose to knock on the door lightly.
Chen Ju was curled up on the sofa, her head was in a daze, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door, she woke up with a start, and looked in the direction of the door blankly, is it Jiang Zhou?
Probably not, Jiang Zhou usually came in directly without knocking on the door, and usually the housekeeper and servants would not come over at this time.
Could it be that Jiang Jin is back?There were three more knocks on the door, Chen Ju paused, put on his slippers, and walked over.
He opened the door and raised his head. When he saw Jiang Zhou standing outside the door, he froze and subconsciously took a step back.
How could it be Jiang Zhou?when did he come backAll kinds of doubts came to mind, Chen Ju forgot to look away for a moment, and stared at Jiang Zhou blankly.
"Are you awake?" Jiang Zhou said, with a slight arc on the corner of his lips, like a smile, but there was no smile in those bottomless eyes, hiding too many incomprehensible emotions.
Chen Ju couldn't understand Jiang Zhou, and didn't have the mind to think about it. He lowered his eyes and nodded slightly.
Now he just needs to be obedient and not make Jiang Zhou angry.
"The weather outside is very good today, do you want to go out for a walk?" Jiang Zhou said suddenly.
Chen Ju's expression finally fluctuated a bit. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhou in surprise. During this time, the only areas he could move about were the bedroom and the living room, and even leaving the yard would be prohibited by Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou wanted to reach out to help Chen Ju brush away the messy hair, but he took it back and said, "Just now, you change your clothes, and I'll wait for you underneath."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Zhou left the room, leaving Chen Ju standing there alone in a daze. He didn't recover for a long time. What exactly did Jiang Zhou want to do?
Jiang Zhou called Secretary Liu, postponed today's meeting until tomorrow, and explained some important work. After finishing these, Chen Ju still hasn't come down.
He glanced at his wristwatch, feeling restless again, stood up, suddenly thought of Jiang Jin's words, and sat back down again.
About ten minutes later, Chen Ju, who had changed his clothes, came late. He was wearing a white down jacket, which Jiang Zhou had bought for Chen Ju at the beginning.big.
Holding on to the handrail, Chen Ju walked down the stairs slowly. Because she hadn't eaten all the time, she was supported by nutritional supplements. After walking two steps, her legs felt weak.
For a certain distance, he walked for several minutes before he came to the sofa, lowered his head, clutched the hem of his clothes tightly, and waited for Jiang Zhou to speak.
"I checked just now. There is an underwater world nearby. How about we go for a stroll?" Jiang Zhou raised his head, his sharp brows and eyes were soft, and he focused on Chen Ju.
The words "underwater world" aroused Chen Ju's interest, and he opened his mouth. After realizing that he was speechless now, he finally nodded his head.
This is the first time he has walked out of the villa in this period of time. Even the cold wind blowing on his face feels very comfortable. There are many bodyguards standing outside the courtyard.Tighten your palms.
He couldn't walk fast, and he needed to stop for a while after two steps. He was worried that he wouldn't be able to keep up with Jiang Zhou, so Chen Ju sped up on purpose, but I don't know if it was an illusion.He keeps a distance.
When he got to the side of the car, Jiang Zhou opened the door for Chen Ju, and stood beside him. After Chen Ju bent down and sat in, he closed the door, went around, and sat next to Chen Ju.
Sensing Jiang Zhou sitting in, Chen Ju's body tensed up involuntarily, and he sat upright, with his hands clasped on his lap and clenched into a ball.
Feeling the man's tension, Jiang Zhou resisted the urge to pull the man into his arms, and just leaned on the back of the chair, keeping a distance from Chen Ju on purpose.
The car drove for a while, and Chen Ju fell asleep leaning against the side, knocking his head on the glass window, bit by bit, and at the first few times, Jiang Zhou reached out to cover Chen Ju's forehead, and moved gentlyThe man pulled over and carefully let him rest on his shoulder.
This posture can clearly feel the man's breathing, even if he is asleep, the man's breathing is still very weak and cautious, just like how he feels to others.
Jiang Zhou lowered his eyes and looked at the man who had lost a lot of weight. He reached out and brushed the too long hair to the man's ear. His hair should be cut short because of his long hair. Take him to cut it sometime.
Aphasia, anorexia... He didn't know that the man's mental illness had become so serious, and he always looked stupid and didn't understand anything.
Chen Ju felt that he had slept for a long time, and it was always like this during this time. When he was free, he would feel sleepy. As long as he fell asleep, his physical discomfort would feel better. He opened his eyes in a daze, turned his head, and just looked atSeeing Jiang Zhou's smooth chin and tight thin lips, he was slightly stunned.
When did he fall asleep on Jiang Zhou's shoulder?Sitting up straight in a hurry, he happened to meet Jiang Zhou's dark eyes, which were bottomless, as if they could suck people in.
"Are you awake? Do you want to go out and have something to eat first?" Jiang Zhou asked in a questioning tone, an unusual order.
Chen Ju paused and nodded. Although he doesn't want to eat now, even if his stomach is empty, he doesn't want to eat anything. When he thinks about those foods, he feels inexplicably sick.
But Jiang Zhou asked if he wanted to eat, so he wanted to eat something, even if he couldn't eat, but he was obedient so that he wouldn't make Jiang Zhou angry.
The smile on the corner of Jiang Zhou's mouth dissipated, he stared at Chen Ju's face for a few seconds, looked away, and said in a low voice: "Chen Ju, you don't have to force yourself if you don't want to eat."
Seeing such a peaceful Jiang Zhou, a trace of fear floated on Chen Ju's face, he tightly clenched the hem of his clothes, and shrank to the corner of the chair, afraid that Jiang Zhou would get angry, so he shook his head hastily.
Her dry throat seemed to be blocked, but she still couldn't make a sound. Chen Ju's anxious eyes were flushed, and suddenly she covered the back of her hand with another hand. Chen Ju froze and raised her head in a daze.
Jiang Zhou frowned tightly, his eyes looked at Chen Ju tenderly, and a dry and hoarse voice came out of his throat for a while: "Don't be afraid, Chen Ju, I don't want you to be afraid of me."
The man's voice seemed to be pleading, Chen Ju was stunned for a moment, the trembling inside his body seemed to have stopped, and he suddenly felt less resistance to the hand on the back of his hand.
Seeing that the man gradually regained his composure, Jiang Zhou withdrew his palm, restrained the turbulent emotions in his heart, and opened a comfortable distance from the man.
"Let's go to the underwater world first. If you want to eat, just tell me." Jiang Zhou said softly.
The man looked at him blankly, his eyes were still flushed from the shock just now, Jiang Zhou really wanted to hold the man in his arms immediately, and kiss the end of his eyes, the tip of his nose and the white lips.
However, he needs to restrain himself, suppress the beast inside, a man needs to take his time.
After entering the aquarium, the expression on Chen Ju's face became richer. Jiang Zhou followed Chen Ju, his eyes kept falling on the man's face. Seeing the surprise and excitement in the man's eyes, the corners of his lips raised slightly.rise.
After walking around, Chen Ju was finally tired and had no energy to take another step, so he had to sit on a chair and rest for a while, but his eyes kept looking around. Suddenly, he saw a big flat fish with a funny appearance, subconsciouslyI grabbed Jiang Zhou's sleeve and wanted to tell him to read it quickly, but opened mouth and only uttered ahhh syllables.
Hearing the unpleasant sound from his throat, Chen Ju woke up with a start, and realized that he could not speak now. He turned his head and met Jiang Zhou's eyes.
Because he was too nervous, he forgot to let go of his hand for a while, what should he do?Will Jiang Zhou find that he can't speak anymore?
eat my wife's leftovers
"I saw it too," Jiang Zhou said, "That fish looks very interesting."
Chen Ju regained his composure, Jiang Zhou's gaze made him suddenly feel overwhelmed, so he could only lower his head and avoid his sight.
Jiang Zhou knew what he was talking about, even though he didn't say anything.
After resting for a while, Jiang Zhou brought Chen Ju outside. It happened to be afternoon tea time. Many parents brought their children and couples around various food stalls to buy something to eat.
Passing by a porridge shop, Chen Ju glanced in, it was seafood porridge with various ingredients, he suddenly wanted to try it.
Jiang Zhou also noticed Chen Ju's gaze, stopped in his tracks, and asked, "Would you like to try it?"
Chen Ju was a little surprised. Jiang Zhou seemed to be able to read his mind since the morning, and he could immediately know every bit of his thoughts.
"I'll buy a bowl. If you can't eat it, give it to me. It's okay." Jiang Zhou said.
Chen Ju clenched her lower lip, grabbed the hem of her clothes, and lowered her head in bewilderment.
The porridge obviously smelled delicious, but after Chen Ju ate two mouthfuls, the familiar feeling of nausea reappeared in his stomach, and he couldn't take another mouthful. He held the spoon, his face turned slightly pale.
This was specially bought by Jiang Zhou for him, and he had to finish it. A voice sounded in his mind, and Chen Ju picked up the spoon and continued to stuff the porridge into his mouth.
His wrist was suddenly pressed, Chen Ju paused, his mouth was full of porridge, and he looked up at Jiang Zhou.
"Don't eat if you don't want to eat." Jiang Zhou frowned. He reached out and wiped Chen Ju's mouth with a tissue, then brought the porridge bowl in front of him, took the spoon Chen Ju had used, and ate what Chen Ju had just eatenkeep eating.
Surprise floated in Chen Ju's eyes, he forgot the discomfort in his stomach for a moment, and stared blankly at the man in front of him, Jiang Zhou was actually eating what he had eaten, didn't he always have a cleanliness?Shouldn't it feel dirty to eat leftovers from other people's meals?
A bowl of porridge was a quick solution for Jiang Zhou. He wiped his mouth, looked up to meet Chen Ju's blank eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and said, "It's delicious, wait until you can eat it.", let's come again."
Chen Ju looked away, paused for a while, and nodded slightly.
Coming out of the underwater world, Chen Ju couldn't take it anymore, and as soon as he got in the car, he fell into a drowsy sleep. Jiang Zhou asked the bodyguard to take a blanket, covered Chen Ju, and let him lean in his arms.
When he got to the villa, Jiang Zhou didn't wake up Chen Ju, but carried him back with the blanket attached.
When he put it down, Chen Ju stared open his eyes, looked at Jiang Zhou sleepily, Jiang Zhou's eyes were dark, he leaned in and kissed Chen Ju's forehead, and said in a low voice: "Sleep, I'm right here."
Hearing this, Chen Ju slowly closed his eyes, his fingers still tightly clutching Jiang Zhou's clothes.
Jiang Zhou didn't tear it away, but held the man's hand back, lifted the quilt, and slept next to him.
"Young master, we have found out who that wave of power belongs to." The bodyguard lowered his voice.
"Well, say." The night outside the balcony was dark, Jiang Zhou was wearing a coat, smoking a cigarette, and said in a deep voice.
"It's the second young master's people. They treat people very strictly. It's not easy for our people to make a move."
Jiang Zhou had expected it a long time ago, but he didn't expect that Jiang Qing would act so blatantly and directly rob people. He shook his cigarette butt and said in a low voice: "I see, I will do this myself."
"Okay, young master."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zhou continued to smoke half a cigarette in his hand, his handsome face was obscured under the cover of the night.
In the studio, Song Qingtan leaned on the table and stared at the man with a cold face. The brush drew smooth lines under the man's slender fingers. Various colors immediately appeared on the originally blank canvas, making people move.Keep your eyes open.
Suddenly, the mobile phone rang. Chen Qi stopped his paintbrush without looking at the mobile phone. He pressed the hang up button and continued to paint. The mobile phone rang again.
Seeing this, Song Qingtan raised his eyebrows and said, "Take it, it's not because you dare not take it because I'm here?"
Chen Qi glanced at Song Qingtan coldly, put down the brush, wiped his hands, picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.
"Well, okay, I have time tomorrow afternoon." After saying a few words, Chen Qi pressed the hang up button and continued to draw.
Song Qingtan walked over and said, "Who is calling? Did I tell you that you can leave tomorrow afternoon?"
"It's just a phone call from the studio, let's talk about publishing." Chen Qi finally spoke, his voice was clear and cold, and it sounded nice.
Song Qingtan's smile remained undiminished, he reached for Chen Qi's phone, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just about publishing? Then why didn't you answer it just now?"
There was no fluctuation on Chen Qi's face, he looked at Song Qingtan coldly and calmly, and said, "What does Young Master Song want to say?"
"Chen Qi, you are doing things under my nose, don't think I don't know what you are doing." Song Qingtan said with a smile, and threw the phone back, "I just don't want to care, but don't go too far."
Chen Qi lowered his eyes, and finally there was a trace of fluctuation on his face. He grabbed the phone, and the veins on the back of his fair hand bulged.
"Don't go too far?" Chen Qi said in a low voice, raised his head, suppressed anger in his indifferent eyes, "Why do you say don't go too far, Young Master Song?"
The smile on Song Qingtan's face faded, looking strangely at the man in front of him who was rarely emotionally fluctuating, he couldn't help frowning.
Chen Qi stood up. He was tall, half a head taller than Song Qingtan. Song Qingtan knew that if Chen Qi really wanted to fight him, he would not be his opponent at all.
"My family has an accident, and you won't help me, so why don't you let me find someone else?" Chen Qi approached step by step, lowered his head, and stared at Song Qingtan with burning eyes, "This is too much, then Eldest Young Master Song, tell me, what is it?"Isn't that too much?"
Song Qingtan looked away with some guilty conscience, and said: "That is Jiang Zhou. He and I are good brothers, so we must not make a move. If it were someone else, I would still help you."
"Heh," Chen Qi sneered, his eyes regained his indifference, he turned around, sat back on the chair, picked up the paintbrush, turned his back to Song Qingtan, and rushed the guests, "You can leave if Mr. Song is fine."
Facing Chen Qi's indifferent back, Song Qingtan felt a trace of dissatisfaction in his chest, clenched his fists, and said, "What's your attitude? If I didn't pay for it, would you sell these broken paintings? This studio is also from my young master."I bought it with money, and if you want to leave, you must leave!"
With a snap, Chen Qi put down the paintbrush. Song Qingtan's body trembled, and he straightened his back involuntarily. He frowned and said, "What do you want to do?"
Chen Qi didn't speak, stood up, walked to the sink, washed off the paint on his hands, packed his bag on his back, and walked outside the studio.
Seeing that Chen Qi was about to leave, Song Qingtan stepped forward, grabbed the man's arm, and said angrily, "Where are you going?!"
"Didn't Young Master Song say that?" Chen Qi stopped, turned his head, and looked at Song Qingtan coldly, "You bought these with money, so I'm the only one to go."
"Do you really want to talk to me like this?" Song Qingtan gritted his teeth and said word by word, "If it weren't for me, would you be where you are today? Even if you throw these paintings on the street, no one will take a look!"
Chen Qi's eyes were still calm, as if Song Qingtan was not talking about him, just like the first time we met, he just sat indifferently in the crowded downtown area, with two paintings in front of him, Song Qingtan didn'tUnable to understand what was painted on the painting, he was immediately attracted by this indifferent man. He wanted to see if there would be more expressions on the man's handsome face.
So he paid for Chen Qi's painting. On the first day, the second day, and the third day, until a week later, Chen Qi did not appear on the street. Song Qingtan panicked and found that he only knew the man's name.I can still see the inscription on the painting.
In this way, he waited for a month, and Chen Qi appeared on the street again. Song Qingtan restrained his inner excitement, and went up to ask the price of the painting. Chen Qi, who didn't talk much for a while, looked up at him for the first time, indifferently.There is something extra in the bottom of the eyes.
"Do you like my paintings very much?" This was the first sentence Chen Qi asked him.
Song Qingtan was very excited. He used to play while he was in school. Now that he's out to work, he doesn't take the lead. When he encounters a problem, he asks Jiang Zhou to help him solve it and give him a suggestion.
His head was empty, and he didn't have any so-called artistic cells at all. He bought these paintings and threw them in the room to pile up.
"Well, I like it very much, I think, how should I put it..." Song Qingtan racked his brains to find a few useful words from the poor vocabulary, "Every time I see your paintings, I feel very sad, and I want to keep doing this.Watch."
There was a slight wave in Chen Qi's eyes, and he picked up a new painting next to him and handed it to Song Qingtan, saying, "This is for you, no money is required."
"Ah? Thank you," Song Qingtan took the painting flatteredly, and took out the wallet from his pocket, "But you're lucky if you don't give me money. I'm not short of money, so I'll give you money."
"No need." Chen Qi said coldly, "If you give me the money, return the painting to me instead of selling it."
"That won't work!" Song Qingtan quickly took the painting back, with a bright smile on his face, "Okay, if you don't pay, can I treat you to dinner?"
Chen Qi stared at Song Qingtan's smiling face for a few seconds, and said, "Okay."
After recovering from his thoughts, Chen Qi had already left, leaving Song Qingtan standing alone in the empty studio, staring at his palm dipped in paint, feeling a tight pain in his chest.
What exactly is going on?Why did he and Chen Qi become like this? Is there something wrong with him?
The phone rang suddenly. Song Qingtan wanted to hang up, but when he saw the note, he pressed the answer button, and said weakly, "Hey, what's the matter?"
Jiang Zhou's cold voice sounded: "Do you know a man named Chen Qi?"
"Ah? Why, what's the matter?" Song Qingtan's voice suddenly stammered.
"He ruined my business, I want to talk to him." Jiang Zhou said in a deep voice, holding the information he just got in his hand, Chen Qi in the photo looked at the camera coldly.
Wife ate, excited
"Ah? What's wrong with him?" Song Qingtan pretended to be confused and asked.
Jiang Zhou said: "I have something to talk to him about."
"Can't you talk to me? He usually doesn't care about things. If you talk to him, he will be pissed off. I had a fight with him just now." Song Qingtan complained.
"No." Jiang Zhou frowned and lowered his voice, "Don't flirt with me. I want to see Chen Qi tomorrow morning, otherwise we won't be in touch anymore."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Zhou hung up the phone. At this moment, the upstairs bedroom door opened, and Jiang Jin came out from inside. Jiang Zhou put Chen Qi's information back into the folder.
"How is it?" Jiang Zhou stood up and asked.
Jiang Jin pushed his glasses and said, "It looks much better than before, and I can eat half a bowl of porridge by myself."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice, "Thank you very much."
"It has nothing to do with me," Jiang Jin said, looking straight at Jiang Zhou, "It's you, Young Master Jiang's care during this time that made Mr. Chen's condition much better."
"Because of me?" Jiang Zhou asked. During this period of time, he would go out for a walk with Chen Ju every day. Sometimes, he would watch a movie together.So contradicted.
"Of course," Jiang Jin smiled, "As I said before, Young Master Jiang is too hard on Mr. Chen. Give him more freedom and think from his point of view. It will be good for Mr. Chen's condition."s help."
Jiang Zhou seriously thought about Jiang Jin's words, more freedom... If too much freedom is given, will a man fly farther and farther like a kite with a broken string, until he can no longer find it...
"I see." Jiang Zhou frowned, his face was a little more serious than before, "I will consider Dr. Jiang's words, but I can't give him freedom for the time being."
Jiang Jin paused, and finally sighed helplessly, and said, "Okay, Young Master Jiang, think about it carefully."
After speaking, he left the villa with his bag on his back.
Jiang Zhou stood there for a while, got up and went upstairs, and walked to the door of the bedroom. The door was unlocked, and Chen Ju could be seen sitting on the sofa through the half-open gap. He was lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking..
Dong dong dong, Jiang Zhou knocked on the door lightly, Chen Ju was startled, raised his head to look at the door, saw that it was Jiang Zhou, thought of the unfinished porridge on the table, hurriedly picked it up, and prepared to continue eating.
"No need to eat," Jiang Zhou said, walked forward a few steps, and took the bowl from Chen Ju's hand, "I'm going on a business trip the day after tomorrow, you come with me."
Chen Ju was stunned, on a business trip?Where are you going on a business trip, is it far away?Why take him there, he can't help much.
As if understanding the doubts in his eyes, Jiang Zhou raised the corners of his lips and said, "There is a nice hot spring there. Didn't you really want to travel to places with hot springs?"
Chen Ju was slightly stunned. In the past...it was in high school, he and Jiang Zhou mentioned the words several times, and Jiang Zhou still remembered such a long time ago.
"I have to deal with work in the company these two days, so I can't accompany you at home for the time being. If you need anything, you can contact Wu Xin." After Jiang Zhou finished speaking, he paused for a while, and took out a new mobile phone from his pocket, "If you want to find me, you can call me a video."
Chen Ju stared blankly at the mobile phone. Since the car accident, he has never touched a mobile phone or other communication tools. Jiang Zhou looked at him as if he was guarding a prisoner.
"I'm going to the company. Do you want to go with me or stay at home?" Jiang Zhou casually put his phone on the table.
Chen Ju looked at the phone, his heart was beating wildly, he was silent for a while, and wrote three words on the cardboard: Is it okay?
The cardboard and pen were specially bought by Jiang Zhou, and they have been stored for a week. This is the first sentence that appeared on the cardboard.
Jiang Zhou opened his hand, Chen Ju was stunned for a few seconds, then he came to his senses and handed him the pen.
Only the sound of rustling strokes on the paper can be heard around, it is very quiet and makes people feel very comfortable.
"You can do whatever you want." Jiang Zhou handed the pen to Chen Ju after finishing writing.
Chen Ju took the pen, stared down at the big characters flying in the air, paused for a while, and slowly wrote down a word: "Think"
Seeing that word, a trace of surprise floated in Jiang Zhou's eyes, he tightened his palms, suppressed the urge to hug the man immediately, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
Walking out of the villa, Chen Ju felt that his legs were weak and trembling slightly. Although there was nutrient solution, his body would feel very tired after only a few movements.
Jiang Zhou stood in front, stretched out his hand towards him, and said, "Do you want me to hold it?"
Chen Ju looked around subconsciously. The number of bodyguards had not decreased. He stood in two rows outside the villa. He clenched his palms and shook his head slightly.
"Okay, then don't hold me." Jiang Zhou withdrew his hand.
Chen Ju pursed her lips, and a trace of surprise floated in her heart. During this period of time, Jiang Zhou seemed to be a different person. He didn't force him to do anything. He really couldn't understand what Jiang Zhou wanted to do.
When he arrived at the company, looking at the doorway with people coming and going, Chen Ju felt a little timid in his heart. He hadn't come out to see so many people for a long time. During this time, he seemed to be isolated from the world.
Following Jiang Zhou into the company, Chen Ju lowered his head and tried his best to ignore those strange eyes. After walking into the elevator, Chen Ju felt relieved. After a short distance, a layer of cold sweat had already oozed from his forehead.
"It's okay." Jiang Zhou nodded slightly, and stared at him with dark eyes. There were too many incomprehensible things hidden in those eyes, which made Chen Ju feel sore in his heart, and he looked away in a panic..
Jiang Zhou started working. Chen Ju sat on the sofa beside him and waited quietly. Secretary Liu brought him blankets and food. After taking a nap, Chen Ju felt hungry for a long time.Reaching out to pick up a piece of bread, he took a small bite, and it tasted sweet and sweet, without any nauseating feeling, so he took a few more bites, and quickly finished the three small breads.
Suddenly, Chen Ju heard the sound of the pen falling, and trembled, like a frightened little rabbit, retracted into the blanket again, and looked at Jiang Zhou timidly.
Jiang Zhou withdrew his gaze from staring at the man, pretended not to notice the appearance over there, bent down to pick up the pen on the ground, his fingertips trembled slightly when he picked up the pen, all because of being too excited.
From the beginning of work to the present, Jiang Zhou has 50% of his attention on the man, watching him in a daze, sleeping, staring at the movie on the iPad, and his eyes do not know where to wander.
It wasn't until the man fell asleep that he devoted himself to his work. Just now, when he heard the movement, he raised his head and glanced over there. When he saw the man taking small bites of bread, Jiang Zhou stopped., Even breathing became more careful.
Because he was too focused, he forgot that he was still holding the pen in his hand. With a snap, the pen slipped from his fingers. The sound alarmed the man who was eating, and he retracted his tentacles like a frightened little snail.
A trace of annoyance arose in Jiang Zhou's heart, and when Chen Ju looked over, he subconsciously looked away.
Picking up the pen, Jiang Zhou looked at the sofa again, and Chen Ju nestled back again. He glanced at the bread on the table and ate three in total. Could it be too dry?
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhou sent a message to Secretary Liu: "Bring Chen Ju a cup of hot milk."
"Okay, boss." Secretary Liu replied quickly.
In less than a few minutes, an employee brought in a cup of hot milk, put it on the table, nodded to Chen Ju, and left the office with a tray.
Chen Ju stared blankly at the hot milk on the table, hesitated for a few seconds, picked up the cup, held it in both hands, and took a big sip. The bread that was stuck in her throat just now felt better because of the hot milk.
After drinking the hot milk, Chen Ju felt sleepy again, retracted her bare feet into the blanket, leaned on the sofa, and closed her eyes.
After sleeping for a while, he wanted to go to the bathroom a little bit, but just as he sat up and put on his shoes, he heard Jiang Zhou's voice: "Where are you going?"
Chen Ju picked up the cardboard and pen, and wrote three words: "Go to the toilet."
Jiang Zhou probably wouldn't let himself go alone. Even if he went for a walk outside during this period, he never acted alone. Even if he went to the toilet, Jiang Zhou would wait outside.
"Okay, let's go." Jiang Zhou said.
Chen Ju was stunned for a moment, then raised his head. After Jiang Zhou finished speaking, he continued to work, not intending to go with him.
Seeing that the man didn't move, Jiang Zhou raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Do you want me to accompany you?"
Chen Ju came back to her senses, a faint blush appeared on her pale cheeks, she hurriedly stood up, shook her head, and hurried out of the office.
Until the door closed, the indifference on Jiang Zhou's face disappeared, his eyes darkened, and he called the plainclothes bodyguard outside.
"He's out, follow, don't get caught."
"Good boss."
Hearing footsteps behind him, Chen Ju glanced suspiciously. It was a staff member wearing black-rimmed glasses, with his head down, playing with his mobile phone and walking towards the toilet.
It turned out to be an employee, but he thought it was... Maybe he thought too much, Jiang Zhou was really different from before.
After entering the toilet cubicle, Chen Ju's heart was beating wildly. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and pressed the familiar number, but when he was about to dial, he stopped.
I still can't speak now, so if make a call like this, the hospital will think it's a harassing call.
After thinking for a while, Chen Ju thought of Li Qing, because he used to work in a hotel, and sometimes called Li Qing to ask about his work, so he kept remembering Li Qing's number.
"Brother Qing, I'm Chen Ju, can I trouble you to visit my mother in the hospital these few days? I want to know how she is doing."
Sent a text message and got a reply soon.
"Okay, brother is busy these two days, can you go there early in the morning the day after tomorrow?"
"Okay, thank you Brother Qing."
"Thank you, thank you, I'm busy first, so I won't talk about it."
Looking at the text message on the screen, Li Qing's grinning face appeared in front of Chen Ju's eyes, and his eyes couldn't help feeling a little hot. After turning off the phone, he hurried out, Jiang Zhou was still waiting, he couldn't stay in the toilet for too long.
Jiang Zhou knows the truth
As soon as he came out of the toilet, Chen Ju saw the employee again, leaning against the door to make a phone call, saw him come out, glanced over here, and continued to call.
"Well, I'll be right back."
Won't be fined for calling like this during work hours?Chen Ju didn't think much about it, and walked towards the office. When passing by the tea room, she caught a glimpse of the coffee machine inside.
By the time he realized it, Chen Ju had already turned into the tea room.
"What?" Jiang Zhou's face became gloomy when he heard the words on the other end of the phone, "It's such a short distance that you can lose people, what use is it for me to ask you!"
The bodyguard on the other end of the phone apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Eldest Young Master, I'll look for it right away, it should be nearby."
"Look for me quickly, don't talk nonsense!" Jiang Zhou raised his voice and became emotional. He hung up the phone, stood up, and walked towards the door.
As soon as he opened the door, Chen Ju appeared outside the door with a cup of coffee. Chen Ju was about to open the door when he saw the door opened unexpectedly. He still kept the habit of pushing the door, and leaned forward.
"Be careful!" Jiang Zhou stretched out his hand quickly, and the hot coffee was spilled in an instant. He saw it, but he didn't dodge it. Instead, he chose to grab Chen Ju's wrist and let the man fall into his arms.
There was a clear and crisp sound, and the glass fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Chen Ju lay on Jiang Zhou's chest, breathing the man's breath, his heart beat faster, and his body became stiff..
Feeling the change of the man in his arms, Jiang Zhou let go of his hand. After confirming that the man was standing still, he took a step back, opened the distance between them, and said in a deep voice, "Are you all right? Did you get burned?"
Leaving the man's embrace, Chen Ju's breathing eased, and she shook her head lightly.
"Please call the cleaner to come over and sweep the broken glass on the ground." Jiang Zhou said to the staff at the door.
"Okay, boss." The male staff got up quickly and went to call the cleaner over.
When Jiang Zhou saw the man with downcast eyes and pale face, the irritability in his heart faded away, and his gloomy face turned clear. He heard the call saying that the man had disappeared just now, and his mood suddenly sank. All kinds of irritability and angerHis chest throbbed, and at that moment, many extreme thoughts of capturing the man flashed through his mind.
Fortunately, the man didn't run away, but came back obediently.Jiang Zhou can't guarantee that if the man really escapes, what will he do? Those dark thoughts will stick out from his chest like chains at a certain moment, binding him tightly, heThere is no way to control them.
"It's fine, just be careful, don't step on the shards of glass." Jiang Zhou stretched out his hand to pull Chen Ju over, but just as he stretched it out, he thought that the man was afraid of his touch, so he took it back.
Unexpectedly, before he retracted his hand, Chen Ju suddenly took the initiative to grab his hand. A trace of surprise flashed in Jiang Zhou's eyes. He stopped and looked at the man, afraid that if he moved, he would scare him.
Chen Ju frowned, staring nervously at his reddened hands, and opened his mouth worriedly, only syllables came out of his throat. He had to look up at Jiang Zhou, and anxiously gave Jiang Zhou the burnt area with his fingers.look.
It's all red, and you need to apply the medicine immediately, otherwise it will foam, and it's all his fault. If he didn't pour coffee on a whim, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened.
Jiang Zhou has always been less sensitive to pain than ordinary people from the past to now. If the burn on his hand had been left in the past, he would not have taken such a small injury seriously, and it would heal itself in a few days.
But seeing the anxious look of the man, he was so worried that he forgot to be afraid, his soft hands held his hand carefully, teardrops fell down, hit the back of his hand, and landed on Jiang Zhou's heart, his heart was itchy,He stared at Chen Ju, and said in a low tone: "Hiss, it hurts."
The guilt in Chen Ju's heart deepened, and he gestured hurriedly, going out to call for someone, and the medicine box came over.
Ahhh, an unpleasant syllable came out of her throat, and Chen Ju was very annoyed why she couldn't speak suddenly.
"Don't worry," Jiang Zhou put his palm on Chen Ju's shoulder, and said in a gentle voice, "There is a medicine box here, it's in the cabinet under the bookshelf, can you help me get it here?"
Chen Ju nodded immediately, walked towards the bookshelf, squatted down to get the medicine box.
Seeing the anxious back of the man, Jiang Zhou glanced lightly at the cleaner's aunt who was picking up the broken glass, squatted down halfway, and said with bent lips: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to trouble you."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand to help pick up the debris on the ground. The auntie cleaner was flattered and said with a smile: "Thank you boss, I will do this kind of thing, or I will hurt the boss's hand."
"It's okay." Jiang Zhou smiled, picked up a sharp piece of glass, secretly exerted force with his palm, and immediately a bloody gash was drawn on the palm of his hand, and bright red blood dripped on the glass piece.
Seeing this, the aunt hurriedly said: "Oh, boss, let go! Why did you break such a big hole, you need to disinfect it quickly!"
Jiang Zhou didn't feel any pain. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Chen Ju who was running over in a hurry, frowned, and said with pain: "It's just a cut, it's nothing."
"Ah, ah..." Chen Ju ran over anxiously, grabbed Jiang Zhou's hand, and when he saw the impressive wound in his palm, his expression turned serious, and before Jiang Zhou could speak, he grabbed his wrist and pursed his lips, pulling the person to the side of the sofa.
Chen Ju pointed to the sofa, Jiang Zhou sat down obediently, opened his palms, and said in a low voice, "It's just a small injury, it's fine."
"No! Wounds are easily infected in winter!" Chen Ju hurriedly picked up a pen to write a line, and threw the whiteboard in front of Jiang Zhou.
Seeing the crooked words, a smile appeared in Jiang Zhou's eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, and he said, "Okay, please help me bandage it up."
"Sit down." Chen Ju wrote two more words, then sat next to Jiang Zhou, opened the medicine box, and carefully treated Jiang Zhou's wound.
Jiang Zhou lowered his eyes and stared intently at Chen Ju. The man pursed his lips, frowned tightly, and treated his wound seriously. It was only a small injury that could make a man so attractive.In his heart, it seemed that he had turned back into the boy whose eyes were full of himself. Jiang Zhou's eyes flickered slightly, rippling with unknown waves.
After treating the wound, Chen Ju finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and wanted to put the medicine box back, but because the ground was too violent, his head suddenly became dizzy, his body swayed, and he fell backwards.
"Chen Ju!" Jiang Zhou immediately grabbed Chen Ju's arm and pulled the man into his arms.
The dizziness faded, and Chen Ju realized that he was actually sitting on Jiang Zhou's lap, with a trace of heat on his cheeks, and he wanted to stand up immediately.
Suddenly being hugged at the waist, Jiang Zhou's low voice seemed to be pleading: "Don't be afraid, Chen Ju, just let me hug you for a minute, okay?"
A man's voice came from behind, with a buzzing trill. Chen Ju lowered his head, just in time to see Jiang Zhou's injured left hand, and stopped struggling without moving again, and gave Jiang Zhou a hug.
A minute passed quickly. When Jiang Zhou let go of his hand, Chen Ju was still in a daze. He didn't expect it to end so soon. When he realized that he had such thoughts, his cheeks immediately became hot and he stood up in a panic., carrying the medicine box to the bookshelf.
Looking at the man's hurried back, Jiang Zhou's eyes darkened a little, and he slowly tightened his bandaged palms, as if the man's body temperature still remained in the palms.
One minute is not enough, if possible, he wants to hold the man in his arms all the time, melt into his blood, it is best not to leave his sight for a moment.
There were not many people in the coffee shop in the early morning, and the warm sunlight came in by the glass window, dancing in the coffee on the table.
Chen Qi looked at the man sitting across from him calmly, without any emotion, disgust or anger on his face, as if the two of them had no entanglements.
"The last time we met, I felt that there was something wrong with the way you looked at me," Jiang Zhou said, his eyes were cold, "Did you tell Chen Ju something?"
"I just told him the truth," Chen Qi said calmly, looking at Jiang Zhou, "Could it be that Young Master Jiang dare not let Chen Ju know what he has done?"
"I dare not?" Jiang Zhou leaned on the chair, crossed his long legs, and raised the corners of his lips, "Why dare not? Did I do something outrageous?"
"I just cleaned up those who have been bullied." Jiang Zhou's eyes gradually turned cold, like a demon climbing up from hell, with a gloomy chill all over his body, "a bunch of garbage."
Chen Qi's indifferent eyes flickered, and the man in front of him made him shudder.
"I know, they did something to offend Chen Ju," Chen Qi said after a long silence, "So I won't say much about what Eldest Young Master Jiang did before, but I've been discouraged enough, there's no need to drive everyone out, right?"
"Make a deal," Jiang Zhou said, tapping the table with his fingers, eyes half closed, and said slowly, "You should be clear about Chen Ju's situation over the years, tell me, and I won't pursue it any further."
Chen Qi stared at Jiang Zhou for a while, then said, "Okay, I hope Young Master Jiang keeps his word."
The heat of the coffee dissipated, but no one took a sip, and lay quietly on the table.
"Five years ago, Chen Ju's father was framed and imprisoned. A group of debt collectors ran to Chen Ju's house. Chen Ju just came back from school and was caught by those people. I don't know what happened that half day.When we rushed over, the aunt was holding Chen Ju, who was unconscious, and wanted to jump off the building, but it was my father who stopped them."
A short sentence condensed too much information. Jiang Zhou seemed to be hit on the head with a stick, and he was stunned. The blood in his body seemed to have stopped flowing. He opened his eyes slightly and looked at Chen.Qi, unbelievable words squeezed out of his throat.
"You mean, five years ago, in the first semester of the third year of high school?"
"Yes, Chen Ju didn't go to school after that time." Chen Qi paused, looked at the man with an ugly face in front of him, and said, "Do you want to continue?"
Distressed
"Continue." Jiang Zhou opened his lips.
"My second aunt went crazy very quickly because she was mentally stimulated. My parents didn't want to take care of her and found it troublesome, so they threw her into a mental hospital." Chen Qi stated calmly, without doing anything for his parents.Justified, "When Chen Ju found out, she cried and begged my parents to take my second aunt out, but my parents refused because they needed a lot of medical expenses and they couldn't afford it."
"He has been in my house for five years, it can be said that he has had a very bad life.
