Chapter 25 Can You Help Me?
Chapter 25 Can You Help Me?
Approaching Ji Chenfeng, standing for him, dating him... There are so many things, everything I have done so far is just to gain his favor and seek benefits for myself.
Being with him is indeed much more interesting than being with Zheng Jieyuan and the others, and the happiness obtained is also very novel. But it's enough to play the couple's game on the surface. After all, people still have to plan more for themselves.
Completely cut off his source of income, and at the same time create a financial gap that he cannot afford, driving him to a dead end with raging flames. In this world, there has always been "the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the poor have no one in the downtown area." No one helped him three years ago, and no one will help him three years later. As such, he had no choice but to turn to me.
Just like a hero in a fairy tale, I will fall from the sky to put out the fire for him and save him from danger. And he would be like the innocent "princess" in the tower, grateful to me, no doubt.
With the blessing of a little bit of kindness, he will surely fall into the trap I weave for him. In the end...it becomes a dodder that depends on the tree to survive, eats the nutrients I give, clings to my feet, and becomes an inseparable community of interests with me.
"Can't find him?"
The nurse at the front desk with "Li Ya" written on the nameplate on his chest smiled awkwardly at me and said, "Sorry, Mr. Sang, Dr. Ji has resigned, and we can't contact him at the moment."
He glanced at the closed office at the end of the corridor, and his tone gradually deteriorated because he did not get a satisfactory answer.
"What about my turtle?"
"I was... taken away by Doctor Ji."
"Can't find people, can't find turtles, you really can't help. Is that what you mean?"
Faced with my strength, the nurse shrank her neck and lowered her head, unable to speak.
"Yes, I'm sorry... Otherwise, I'll give you the contact information of our dean. Can you ask him?"
Ask shit.
Annoyed, he punched the table, obviously without much effort, but the nurse was still so frightened that she took a few steps back.
"Mr. Sang, you, calm down. Dr. Ji is very good, there must be some misunderstanding, he will not abuse your turtle..."
Pressing my lips tightly, I didn't listen to what the other party was saying. I turned around and strode out of the veterinary hospital.
It has been a week since the old thing Wu Rong was bought. Today is the last day of Ji Chenfeng's internship, and it is also the day to inform him of his decision not to renew the contract. But since the morning, I couldn't find him. I contacted Yan Shanhua, but I couldn't get through. I don't know if I was blocked.
Damn it! Where did it go?
Sitting in the car, I nibbled the nails on my thumbs hard to vent my frustration.
Yan Shanhua shouldn't tell him the truth, or why did the two lose contact at the same time? Or did the old man accidentally say something and let Ji Chenfeng realize that I was behind the scenes?
No, it won't.
It was fine until yesterday, and we met two days ago and took him to my hotel to watch a horror movie together. At that time, although he was absent-minded the whole time, his attitude towards me was the same as before. When I pretended to ask, he just said that he was too busy with work and didn't have a good rest, but I guessed that Yan Shanhua asked him for money - as I said, he made up a bunch of nonsense and asked him to find a way to raise money. He was troubled by it, but didn't want me to know out of face.
I've been waiting for him to speak for the past two days, and I've thought through the lines, but now I don't even know where the person went.
Why does this little thing go wrong? Can't it just develop as I envisioned?
Damn, damn it, damn it! !
His fingers suddenly ached, and when he regained his senses, the neatly trimmed nails on the thumb had been bitten horribly.
I frowned in disgust, I grabbed a tissue from the car, wiped my hands rudely, and glanced at my phone again.
Quietly, Ji Chenfeng didn't reply to me whether it was a phone call or a message.
For messages sent to him in the morning, if he was busy even at noon, why would he return me after get off work at night. Because I was almost used to it, I only realized something was wrong at night. When I found the pet hospital, Ji Chenfeng had long since disappeared.
Although I knew that the internship period was three months, I honestly didn't remember it very carefully, which led to the current situation. Rather than being annoyed by others, it is more disgusting and hating for the careless self. It's obvious that so much effort has been put into it, so I should be more careful...
After coming out of the pet hospital, he went to Ji Chenfeng's house again. Looking in from the small kitchen window in the corridor, it was pitch black and there was no sound, it didn't look like someone was there at all.
He hammered the blue iron door relentlessly, but no one came to open the door for a long time, except for the loud noise.
I shuffled down the stairs. I almost fell because of my distraction. Fortunately, I grabbed the rusty handrail next to me in time, but even so, I slipped and sat down on the steps.
It is already winter in Hongshi City, and the sky has been gray since the morning, as if it will rain anytime, anywhere.
Looking at the sky above the slums where wires are interspersed with all kinds of wires, without a single star, I exhaled a long breath.
It's really bad. When people are unlucky, they will jam their teeth when they drink cold water.
Sitting on the filthy steps like this, I took out my phone with my rusty hand, and tried to send another voice to Ji Chenfeng.
"I just went to your house to find you, but I accidentally fell on the stairs. Doctor Ji, it hurts."
Leaning on the railing, someone walked down the steps behind me, and because it was too dark, I didn't even notice me in the corner.
After about five minutes, a light rain gradually began to float in the sky, and just as I was about to get up and leave, the phone rang. When I saw it was Ji Chenfeng, I quickly picked it up.
"How do you..."
"Where the fuck have you been?"
The two tools were silent, and the next few seconds were blank periods of confusion.
"Where are you? I'll find you." I changed my words through gritted teeth.
It may be that he sensed my anger through electronic signals. Ji Chenfeng was quite sensible and explained his whereabouts without any nonsense.
"I'll send you the location."
According to the navigation, I finally came to a small amusement park not far from the slum. Ji Chenfeng is sitting in the convenience store facing the gate of the amusement park, with a small plastic box in front of him. From the dim silhouette, it is not difficult to see that it is my little bastard.
I pushed the door aggressively and entered the store. In the background of the clerk's "Welcome to XXX", I walked straight to Ji Chenfeng by the window.
They were already so angry that they would definitely do it before, but Ji Chenfeng had to endure it no matter what. So just stopped in front of him, breathing heavily, thinking back and forth between suppressing the violence and punching his handsome face.
In order to find him, I didn't eat dinner. I ran all night and fell. My trousers are still stained with mud, and my body is still wet from the rain. My whole body is cold and sticky. It made me so embarrassed, but he was better, alone in a warm convenience store, and in the mood to take pets to watch the scenery.
"Why didn't you answer the phone?" I asked him sullenly.
He sat on the round stool, looked up at me slightly, and didn't mean to justify his actions.
"……sorry."
The already clenched fist clenched even tighter: "I went to the hospital and they said you left."
"Did they say that?" He showed a self-deprecating smile. "It's not that he resigned, it's just that he didn't pass the internship period."
Sitting next to Ji Chenfeng and eating a bowl of instant noodles, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and shattered neon lights on the huge glass.
The amusement park opposite has been closed, but the lights on the rides continue to flicker, changing into various colorful lights. Among them, the huge Ferris wheel is particularly conspicuous.
"When I was a child, I always envy other children for having their parents take them to the amusement park." Ji Chenfeng looked at the Ferris wheel in the distance.
Pushing aside the instant noodle bucket full of strong flavor, I wiped my mouth with a tissue, and I said, "What a coincidence, so do I."
Ji Chenfeng turned to look at me: "Have you never been there when you grew up? With your... those girlfriends?"
My attitude towards them is probably Sang Zhengbai's attitude towards me - as long as the material conditions are met, the emotional needs are completely dependent on the mood supply. And a lot of times I'm in a bad mood myself, so I can't take care of them at the same time.
"No."
Unable to bear the smell of instant noodles in my mouth, I got up and went to the cashier to buy a box of mints.
"Let's go together anytime." Back at Ji Chenfeng's side, I raised my chin toward the gate of the opposite amusement park, and said, "I have done all the things that I didn't go to when I was a child, and the things I didn't accomplish."
He stared at me for a long time, and a slight arc was raised on his lips: "...Okay."
It should be me who got the rain, why do I show such a wet expression?
Getting closer to the other person, holding his face, I lowered my head and kissed Ji Chenfeng, completely ignoring that this is a convenience store where people come and go, and there are even two shop assistants three meters away.
This kiss seemed to shut down the composure that Ji Chenfeng had been pretending to keep in front of me tonight. He pressed the back of my head and kissed back more deeply. The other hand held my wrist tightly, and from the place of contact, A slight tremor can be felt spreading.
The smell of mint spread in each other's mouths, and the pain on the tip of my tongue pulled back my sanity. When I opened my eyes, out of the corner of my eye, the clerk at the counter glanced at this side from time to time, whispering to each other, obviously they had noticed our outrageous behavior.
Two men kiss in a convenience store. They must feel perverted, right? It doesn't matter, I feel perverted anyway.
To this day, it's very unbelievable, kissing a man, comforting each other, sharing a bed...Everything is disgusting and perverted, and it's just like this.
For power and wealth, people can really become ghosts.
Pushing him away against Ji Chenfeng's shoulder, he grabbed his hand and rushed out of the store. The rain has been much lighter, so it is not a problem to run all the way to the parking place.
"and many more……"
Ji Chenfeng broke free from my hand and returned to the store again. When he came out again, he was holding the grass that had just been left behind, and a newly bought umbrella.
I took the umbrella from his hand, unpacked it, and opened it. I stepped into the rain first, but I didn't see the other person follow me for a long time.
Looking back suspiciously, Ji Chenfeng was standing under the rain canopy at the entrance of the convenience store, staring at me with complicated eyes, the top of the nail bed was pale because of the force of the ten fingers holding the plastic box.
I had a hunch what he was going to say, but I didn't rush it. I just put one hand in my trouser pocket and waited quietly with my umbrella in hand.
After a while, his rigid body suddenly loosened, and the self-esteem in his body that did not want to yield was finally defeated. Lost to... a cruel reality that cannot be controlled.
"Sang Nian..." Through the rain curtain, he asked, "Can you help me?"
