Chapter 36 Let me go after him

Bai Zhiwang didn't force him to ask him what was going on, nor did he complain that he woke people up in the middle of the night, but just covered him with a warm woolen scarf, and led him into the night.

It stands to reason that with the relationship between the two of them, it would be awkward to go out at night to relax, but Qin Zhou is not only not uncomfortable at all, but is a little greedy for the touch of the palm of his hand.

It was convenient for Bai Zhiwangtu to buy a bicycle nearby with his colleagues, which happened to come in handy this time.He let Qin Zhou swing in the back seat, and started on the road by himself.

Qin Zhou hadn't ridden a bicycle for seven or eight years. The 1.8-meter-two big man was nestled in the back seat, his feet had to be curled up so as not to touch the ground, and his hands had to be tightly gripped behind the seat.

Bai Zhiwang rode the bike very steadily, but he didn't press the brakes when he went downhill like he was a child. When the speed of the dive was fast, the wind whistled in his ears.

This riding style made Qin Zhou very worried. After a while, he felt sick again, and couldn't wait to ask: "Where are you taking me?"

"I don't know, just go for a walk." Bai Zhiwang said so, and drove him to Shazhou Town. There were no people around the Jianrong Market, only a Western Region restaurant was still open.

Bai Zhiwang lifted his feet and put down the pedals, threw the bicycle beside the street lamp, and led Qin Zhou into the house.

"Order." Bai Zhiwang pushed the menu in front of Qin Zhou.

Qin Zhou scanned the menu, always feeling familiar.When they first met, they were in a specialty restaurant, sitting face to face, even facing the same direction.

"You can just order, I'm not hungry." Qin Zhou is no longer a young master with a whole menu, he has learned to manage the house diligently.

Bai Zhiwang ordered a bowl of hot soup, some donkey meat and stir-fried vegetables, "Then eat whatever you want."

It has to be said that he really knows Qin Zhou so well that he hasn't asked a word until now, because he knows that no one can pry Qin Zhou's mouth away if he doesn't want to say it.

Qin Zhou was full after a few mouthfuls. He was used to eating less and more frequently due to his stomach trouble. Seeing that Bai Zhiwang also put down his chopsticks, he sighed heavily.

Bai Zhiwang looked at him inquisitively.

Qin Zhou held his face, helpless and tired: "Meng Xuan broke up and wants to go home."

Bai Zhiwang was very surprised, Meng Xuan has always been active, not like someone who would talk about frustration.

Qin Zhou looked at him and tapped his chopsticks on the side of the bowl: "She wants to go home, so you have to go too. All I care about is going to leave in the end. I suddenly feel... It's meaningless for me to stay here."

Bai Zhiwang took off his chopsticks, shook his head, "I'm still here."

Qin Zhou's mind was agitated, and his thoughts that shouldn't have arisen were fucking crazy, and he couldn't let the other side see it.He didn't speak, thinking to himself, you won't be here all the time.

There was a pencil at hand that was only used to draw the menu, and he had to hold something to hold it when he threw away the chopsticks. It happened that some waiter had placed a piece of white paper under the tablecloth, so Qin Zhou pulled it out and started to draw casually. .

What he didn't finish eating can only be taken care of by Bai Zhiwang. It has been like this since he was 20 years old. For no reason, Teacher Bai was forced to increase a lot of exercise.

Bai Zhiwang moved his chopsticks while Qin Zhou started to write.He never let go of his basic skills, he quickly conceived in his mind, and wrote quickly and accurately. Before Bai Zhiwang finished eating, a sketch was completed.

In recent years, Qin Zhou seldom painted in front of Bai Zhiwang. At most, he just copied the murals, so that the other person was very surprised: "What are you painting?"

Qin Zhou completely followed the impression in his mind, and what he drew surprised him.

"This is me?" Bai Zhiwang took it over and found that it was his own face.

The face and hairstyle of the person in the painting is undoubtedly him at this moment.But the smile and movement are like the young man who sat opposite Qin Zhou and talked eloquently 13 years ago.

"Well, you." Qin Zhou took back the painting, signed it in the lower right corner, and handed it back like that year, "I'll give it to you."

When Bai Zhiwang took it, he asked for the pencil, and wrote on the blank space of the title page: A rose is becoming another rose non-stop. [1]

After Bai Zhiwang finished writing it, he carefully put it into a transparent airtight bag and put it in his breast pocket. Qin Zhou teased him why he was so careful.

"The first painting we collaborated on," Bai Zhiwang patted his pocket, "it needs to be placed closer to the heartbeat."

The man in science and technology was terrified after he got his senses. Qin Zhou's heart was so provoked that the deer bumped wildly, and he still didn't calm down until he returned to the hotel.

Once again, it is very embarrassing to be teased instead of being teased.Qin Zhou decided to let himself cool down first, so as not to burn his old face so badly that he couldn't see it.

As soon as he made up his mind, Bai Zhiwang sent him a voice message, asking: [Are you in a better mood? ]

Send it as soon as you post it, and you have to speak lazily and hoarsely. Qin Zhou wouldn't believe it if he said it wasn't intentional.

But Qin Zhou just ate this set, and replied in a very useless second: [It's much better. ]

Bai Zhiwang: [That's good. ]

Two seconds later, another photo was sent: [I just forgot to say, the painting is very beautiful, I like it very much. ]

It's almost the same as before, the same person, but the tone has changed and the state of mind is also different.It's impossible to say that he didn't touch it. Qin Zhou's mood began to fluctuate since he was sitting on the back seat of the bicycle, wondering if the person on the other side was the same as him.

Recently, there are a lot of troubles, whether it is the progress of the frustrated project or the old friends who have gone away, Qin Zhou is very depressed.But when he listened to the voice from the other side, he felt that as long as Bai Zhiwang accompanied him to press the road in the yellow sand on a moonlit night, everything would not be so bad.

It would be a lie if he said he wasn't moved, but he didn't know who to talk to about all these thoughts.If you call Ding Gu, you will definitely get scolded, and you can't talk to those good friends in the art circle. After thinking about it, a psychologist who has never met is more suitable.

Qin Zhou found his contact, Bright. Although he knew that the other person must be asleep at this point, he still decided to leave a message about his troubles first, and talk about it in detail tomorrow morning.

Qin: [Hi, would you like to consult something?Please reply me when it is convenient for you. ]

Unexpectedly, the other person was also a night owl, and he replied in seconds: [You said. ]

Qin Zhou was surprised: [Are you still asleep? ]

B.: [I'm busy at work. ]

Qin: [Sorry to bother you. ]

B.: [It’s okay, it’s my pleasure to give you advice.Is there any emotional distress? ]

Qin Zhou thought for a while: [It's not really a problem. ]

The other party was puzzled: [That is? ]

Qin Zhou paused, he knew that Bai Zhiwang had already handed him olive branches quite frequently.He used to avoid it at will because of a lot of worries, but after today, he really couldn't ignore his heart.

The art of war taught people to exhaust themselves again and again, and he was afraid that Bai Zhiwang's patience would run out if he dragged on like this, so he had to take the initiative once.

The five characters were deleted and typed before they were sent out: [I want to chase someone. ]

The opposite person was a little helpless, and really wanted to ask "Isn't he chasing you?" After thinking about it, forget it.

So Qin Zhou looked at the "typing in progress" on the opposite side for a long time, guessing that this was going to be a long speech.

However, he only sent one sentence: [Conveniently tell me who you want to chase? ]

Qin Zhou was a little embarrassed: [My ex-boyfriend. ]

Bright. seems to be a lot more relaxed, and the speed of reply has also become faster: [So that's the case, so what are your concerns? ]

Qin: [I...have never chased anyone before, so I don't know how to start. ]

This is true, when you were young, you couldn't even talk about "chasing", it was purely because the two hit it off.

The other party didn't speak, Qin Zhou went to wash up when he was bored waiting, and found a new message when he came back after cleaning.

B.: [Farewell. ]

Qin: [Huh? ]

B.: [Don’t move if you don’t know how to chase people, wait for someone to chase you. ]

Qin: [? ]

Qin Zhou didn't receive a reply later, and he really didn't "move" that night, not because he was obedient, but because he was too sleepy and fell asleep directly.

He was so tired from working overtime these days that he fell asleep until noon the next day, and the three alarm clocks failed to wake him up.Unexcused absences will deduct hundreds of dollars. Qin Zhou was afraid for a while, so he hurriedly checked his email.

Just when he was regretting, he received a message from the girl in personnel affairs: [Mr. Qin, please go to the OA to confirm the process of rescheduling. The team leader has already approved it, just wait for my feedback to confirm. ]

Only then did Qin Zhou remember to check the human resources management system, and found that Bai Zhiwang had asked for leave for him at past eleven o'clock last night.

It turned out that a certain person didn't ask a word on the surface, but in fact, he had already quietly paved the way for him.

However, such a caring person disappeared after posting the phrase "The painting is beautiful".

Qin Zhou has been in love for so many years, and he knows the truth that he should not rely too much on his mobile phone, so he decided to clean up the house first.The accommodation conditions in Shazhou Hotel are not particularly good. In ordinary small single rooms, clothes are hung in the small window next to the bed to dry, and they need to be taken to the large balcony to get rid of humidity.After finishing the busy work, it was past four o'clock in the afternoon, and Bai Zhiwang still didn't say anything.

Qin Zhou then went downstairs to eat, lingeringly eating until six o'clock, then went to a nearby stall with his colleagues to buy some Yangguan grapes, and sprayed some water on the potted cactus. new news.

No, I really can't wait this time.

Teacher Qin fully absorbed the lessons learned from the past, and didn't want the little flame to be extinguished in the cradle.In view of the fact that the psychologist had given some invaluable suggestions, he felt that he still needed to inform the other party.

Qin: [Forget it, let me try it first. ]

B.: [What's wrong? ]

Qin: [I think he doesn't seem to have any intention of chasing me recently, so he doesn't want to wait any longer. ]

That's why Qin Zhou dared to speak so clearly to a stranger when he was old and had no time to play around.Ten years ago, he would never be able to say such a thing, without the slightest reserve that his predecessor should have.

The person on the other side didn't know whether he was stunned or what, so he didn't reply for a long time, and it took a long time to send a message: [Wait a little longer, he should be looking for you. ]

Qin Zhou has already started to feel irritable. He should be strict about what he should do!The back grass that should have been obtained was taken away by other rabbits.

He was not an obedient and good student in his bones, so after exiting the chat box with B., he immediately found [Bai Zhiwang], clicked in and was ready to type.

However, before the keyboard jumped out, his phone started to vibrate - it was a WeChat message from Bai Zhiwang.

[Boat, are you asleep? ]

Qin Zhou took a deep breath, and his fingertips felt inexplicably numb.Was it really hit by the mediator with half a bucket of water?

Qin Zhou typed quickly: [Not yet, why? ]

Bai Zhiwang: [The moon has fallen asleep. ]

Qin Zhou put down his phone and put his hand on his left chest, trying to calm down his numb heart.

This sentence was sent by him to tease Bai Zhiwang before, and it is estimated that only the two of them can understand it, which means, "I miss you very much".
