It was late at night, and there weren't many pedestrians on the open street, which was a stark contrast to the way people came during the day.
The buildings on the side of the street were switched off, and the shops and restaurants were closed.
The whole city was quiet and empty.
I walked around the Sebei Hotel, where dances and songs were leveled.
It took me a long time to find an IP chat.I decided to give Qihuan a long-distance call.There weren't any customers in the conversation.
The boss was cleaning the ground with cigarette butts, melon seeds, and paper trash.
It looked like he was about to retire.
I picked up the phone and said, "Boss, give me a call!" I hadn't noticed it when I was drinking and singing, but now, my mouth was full of the smell of alcohol.
I felt disgusted.Fortunately, her tongue wasn't completely anesthetized and her words were still clear.The boss glanced at it and said impatiently, "Go ahead, but you have to hurry up.
I have to go home..."I pulled a broken stool over and sat down.
I couldn't wait to make a call, but my right hand was hanging in midair, so I couldn't touch the numbers on the phone.
Helplessly, I pulled it back.
Whether I continued to dial or give up, I hesitated.
My heart felt like it was pierced with a thorn, and my pulse was beating softly.Qi Huan's phone number was engraved in his mind and he would never forget it.
However, how difficult was it to display it on the phone now?
Go on, don't lie to yourself...
A voice echoed in his ears.One, two, three...
pressing these twelve numbers seemed to take twelve years."Father used to describe the fragrance of the grasslands, so he couldn't forget about it even at the ends of the world..." The call connected, and the bells continued to ring.
Just like before, it was still De Dema's 'Father's Mother's River'.
The song was soft and refreshing.
Qi Huan loved to listen to this song, and he had been downloading the bells on the internet for a long time.
He was adamant and dedicated to it.There was a long wait, and my heart almost jumped out of my throat, and my mouth was dry from nervousness.
When the bell reached its first climax, "Although I can't speak of it in my mother tongue, please accept my sorrow, my joy" came to an end, and the phone was finally connected, and a soft female voice came from the receiver, "Hello."I shivered and subconsciously shut my mouth, not responding.That was Qi Huan's voice.
It was extremely familiar to me.
I hadn't heard it for months and it was still so crisp and sweet.There were several 'Hello' sounds on the other end of the phone.
When she saw that I hadn't answered for a long time, she suddenly became excited and shouted, "Is Chunlin you?
Is it you?
Chunlin, I know it's you.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Where are you right now?"Qi Huan was smart and had already guessed that it was me.
What should I do next?
I hung up the phone as if I was letting myself down.
After a moment of hesitation, I finally replied, "It's me.
It's late.
Are you still resting?
I, am I disturbing your rest?""Thank goodness, you've finally called.
Do you know how anxious I was when I haven't heard from you for such a long time?
You didn't even tell me when your phone changed its number.
I almost went crazy when I asked around the world to find out where you were.
Chunlin, you really don't want your examination bear anymore?""Calaque Bear" is my exclusive nickname for Qi Huan.
At school, we often go to the library to study, and Qi Huan always lets me go and take a seat first, while I slowly and lazily arrive, and after a while, she must have napped with my arm, like a sleepy koala.Now that the caller ID "Kao Laxiong" had resurfaced in my mind, I almost shed tears."I'm sorry, it's all my fault..." I apologized sincerely."Don't say that.
It's not bad for anyone.
I know you won't leave me alone.
I'm so happy to be able to contact you today!" Qi Huan didn't reprimand me but expressed his joy in an attempt to calm me down."Are you doing well?
Are you still working at the committee?""That's right.
Work is very idle, but it's just that I don't have the heart to work.
I feel like I've lost some sort of passion and motivation in life.
It's all because of you.
Chunlin, tell me about your situation.
How are you doing?""How are your parents?" I didn't want to talk about my terrible situation, so I deliberately changed the subject to avoid her questions."They're all doing fine.
They went on a trip to Europe a few days ago.
Right now, I'm at home with my nanny and she's asleep.
When I got off work, I rented a Korean love movie and turned off my phone.
I didn't want to be distracted when I saw the film.
I turned on my phone and went to the bathroom.
Then, I received a call from you."Did you fight for a long time?
I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, I really didn't do it on purpose..."It was as if I had seen the pitiful look of Qi Huan tearing up again.
It was her patent and repeated attempts, and I feared it the most.
At that time, whenever she cried, my heart would twist like a knife.
There must have been something to surrender obediently.
There was no trick at all.
But now it was not like that.
Come on, comfort me.But what could she say?
She should just ask her parents and distract her."When will your parents be back?""I'll be back in two days.
I know that you have some opinions on them, but don't blame them for my contributions, Chunlin.
Mother has already agreed to our matters.
She said that as long as you come, you can consider it."I was stunned.
As the saying goes, it's hard to change one's nature, so why would the stubborn and aggressive old woman change her mind?
It should be a joke, right?

It was Qi Huan who made up the lie to comfort me, right?
But then again, even if Old Madam Qi really changed her mind, it would be in vain.
I definitely wouldn't go there!
I once hurt my self-esteem too much.
I said that if I had a backbone, I wouldn't watch her live a life of shame.
I would never!
A hint of a hero's heroic aura of kindness and hatred swept through my heart..The boss urged me to close the door.
I ignored him and continued to quietly listen to the phone."Why aren't you talking?
What happened?""Nothing much.
I had some drinks with my colleagues today.""Why are you still drinking?
Drinking will hurt your body.
Don't be like this in the future.
Don't be loyal anymore.
Promise me, okay?""Okay.
""Chunlin, isn't your family doing well?
How's Uncle's health?"The boss urged me again.
I reached out to signal for it to end immediately and said to Qi Huan, "It's alright.
Qi Huan, it's getting late.
You should get some rest.
You still have work tomorrow.
""No, no, no.
Tell me your phone number first.
I can't lose you again!"I didn't want to say anything.
Qi Huan insisted on it again and again, and in the end, he had to wipe away his tears.
Sure enough, he succeeded.
The two of them exhorted each other and gently hung up the phone.After the call ended, I felt much more at ease.
I stretched lazily and got up to pay.
There weren't many banknotes left in my wallet.
I didn't know when this ghost unit would be able to pay a salary.
I didn't know where I would be able to fill my stomach if I didn't receive any food.
I was really unlucky!"How much?" I asked the boss."Four pieces eight!" he replied in a stiff voice.I took out a five-dollar bill and handed it to the boss.
The boss took the money to find the change.
Suddenly, he remembered something and threw the money back at me.
He ordered, "Change it!""What's wrong?
Is the money not clean?""What's the meaning of this?
There's still a corner missing here, useless coins!"I opened my wallet and saw that there were only three notes worth one dollar inside.
Then, I showed them to the boss.
"That's all.
It's not enough...""Then I don't care, you have to pay.
" The boss didn't give up."Just take that one.
Do you want it or not?" I threw down my words and walked out.The boss grabbed my arm and pulled it hard.
He didn't forget to shout, "You want to run?
What are you waiting for?
If you don't have money, call me!""You have to figure it out.
Who didn't pay me?
Isn't that money?
Let go of me!" I was enraged.
I swung my hand with wide eyes, but I didn't get rid of him.
"You need to take an inch and step on your nose and face.
If you continue to pester me, I won't be polite to you!" I warned him sternly, but he refused to let go.I gathered all my strength and waved my hand again, knocking him down on the shelf selling beverages and cigarettes.
The bottle came crashing down.I punched him in the chest again, and then walked out of the room.
There was a dirty scolding behind me.The more I walked forward, the more I felt suffocated.
Tiger Descends was bullied by dogs, and even a small peddler dared to bully me!
No, I had to fight back.
I had to give him a look.
I quickly observed the surroundings and found a small forest at the corner.
It should be a park by the street where the old folks came out in the morning to exercise.
It was big enough, so if they ran in or walked across the road, they wouldn't be caught.Well, that's it!
I picked up a small stone on the side of the road and held it in my hand.
It felt pretty good.After I prepared my weapons, I snuck back to the shop and walked a few meters away to take a look.
There weren't any people or cars around, and the street lamps were dim.
It was a perfect environment to kill and rob people.
If I didn't do anything now, I wouldn't be able to do anything.
I murmured to myself that I should aim at the window and throw the stone over.Crack wner in the room was stunned by the sudden attack.
He paused for five seconds, then came back to his senses and ran out cursing.
I wasn't stupid.
I ran into the forest and turned around to the opposite street.His speed was too fast, and his soul almost couldn't keep up...Since there were no pursuers, I should be safe.
Naturally, my footsteps slowed down.
