Dear Chen Jiu

Chapter 82

When I slept on the bed under the quilt until it was dark, the phone kept ringing in my ears.

Yesterday, he dragged Chen Jiu to hang around, and the intense sex didn't subside until the middle of the night.

Afterwards, I sat on the edge of the bed wrapped in a quilt and watched the fireworks in the distance.

"It would be great if we were in Qingjiang."

I can't help but feel a little regretful.

"Huh?" Chen Jiu leaned against the head of the bed with a somewhat lazy voice.

"Look," I turned around excitedly, took his hand, and motioned him to look out the window, "You can set off fireworks when you return to Qingjiang."

"It's beautiful."

Chen Jiu commented casually.

"Hey, that's still far behind you."

I took his hand and kissed him lightly.

Later, he talked to Chen Jiu for a long time, but he just listened quietly, and when he fell asleep completely, the sky had turned white.

On the first day of the new year, who on earth is so persistent!

I reached out and touched the phone by the bed, and said impatiently, "Hello?"

"Xiao Zong, Happy New Year."

He casually touched his side and found that Chen Jiu was no longer on the bed.

I reached out to pick up the clothes scattered on the floor last night, and accidentally knocked off the alarm clock next to the bed.

Where did Chen Jiu go?

"Why are you in such a hurry?" asked the other end of the phone.

"My boyfriend is gone."

As soon as the voice fell, there was no sound over there.

Only then did I wake up completely, and I took the phone from my ear, and the word 'Mom' was written on the screen.

"mom?"

What is it like to come out on the first day of the new year?

"I, I..." I hurriedly put on my clothes, took a deep breath, and cleared up my thoughts, "Mom, I have a boyfriend."

"Oh."

The response from that end was flat.

"It's a boyfriend."

I repeated.

"Your mother is not deaf."

"Oh."

"When your dad and I go back, take him home and show us."

"No."

Without even thinking about it, I directly refused.

I went straight to the study and opened the door, and it was exactly as I expected.

This man is really a dedicated workaholic, and he doesn't forget to work during the New Year.

"Your dad and I don't eat people."

"No, you misunderstood." I sat down on the desk in front of Chen Jiu, "I still want to ask what he means."

"So what's so good about raising a son, you know how to turn your elbows out.

Can you be a little bit more angry, speaking of which, you have been chasing him for so many years..."

After hanging up the phone, I was in a good mood.

Although the coming out of the closet was caught off guard, it went much smoother than I expected.

Maybe it was because of the chat before the new year, or maybe it's because I haven't talked about a girlfriend in these years...

My mother was surprisingly calm in this matter.

"Chen Jiu," I pulled his collar and put my arms around his neck, "will you go home with me some time to see your parents?"

Hearing this, he paused his hand holding the pencil, and I gently comforted him along his back.

"My mother is very good, she will definitely like you very much, and treat you like her own son, you believe me.

If you want, when you have time, come home with me, okay? "

***

After the new year, the weather turns fine and the temperature gradually picks up.

We went back to Qingjiang together on a sunny day.

Tomb-sweeping day is approaching, and we are going to visit grandma in the cemetery when we come back this time.

Driving through familiar streets and shops, memories of the past emerged one by one.

"Chen Jiu, I like you, you can be my boyfriend."

"Student Chen, good morning."

"Chen Jiu, my name is Gu Zong."

"Chen Jiu, I'll wait for you to get off work."

"Chen Jiu, will you take me home?"

"Chen Jiu, I brought you candy, it's very sweet."

"Chen Jiu, don't worry, I'm here."

……

Scenes of the past flashed through my mind like a movie, and I never forgot the details about Chen Jiu.

Suddenly my heart softened, and I looked sideways at the co-driver, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed.

Some time ago, he went on a business trip to other provinces, and when he came back from the cold, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

After being together obviously, his stomachache has improved a lot.

So this time, alarm bells went off in my head and I blurted out the words to resign.

So Chen Jiu completely ignored me for two or three days.

He was seldom talking, but when he touched Ni Lin, he cherished words like gold.

"Chen Jiu, it's almost time to arrive at our school."

I motioned him to look out the window.

"Oh."

He said lightly.

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I knew that this person was still at odds, and I couldn't force it with Chen Jiu at all.

"I was wrong, I would never quit my job and stay at home.

If my boyfriend gives me a chance, I will definitely correct my attitude towards work. "

Based on the principle of solving the problem, I sincerely admit my mistake.

In fact, the job in the securities company is indeed getting more and more busy, and I can't stay with Chen Jiu in many cases.

For several nights, I finally rushed home early and wanted to be with him, but I accidentally fell asleep sitting in the study because of exhaustion.

I understand why Chen Jiu is angry. It is nothing more than that he feels that work is a part of life, and it is very important to have his own life.

He doesn't want me to focus all my life on him.

But not everyone is like him as a workaholic. In my heart, being with your loved ones is the primary task of a good life.

In the past two days, I have been thinking about changing jobs.

"Chen Jiu, you also have to promise me that we will maintain at least three video calls in the morning, noon and evening when we are on business trips.

I said that you have to add clothes when the temperature is cooling down, and you must eat the meal I ordered on time when it is time to eat. "

It wasn't until the car stopped at the next traffic light intersection that Chen Jiu's voice sounded slowly.

"twice."

He said.

"it is good."

I smiled and accepted it as soon as it was good.

Arrived at Longquan Cemetery.

In front of grandma's tombstone, I put down a bouquet of lilies, and the old lady in the photo still smiled at me gently and kindly as always.

"I'll come and see you."

I remember that summer with countless memories, and I also remember this old lady who taught me to be brave.

Chen Jiu sat in front of the tombstone for a long time, and the evening wind blew until night fell.

We went back to that familiar alley together.

It was the rush hour when the school was over. From time to time, there were groups of high school students coming down from the bus stop across the road. They were dressed in school uniforms, youthful and confident.

"Chen Jiu, our school has changed its uniforms, they were not so good-looking before."

I point to the students in the distance.

"Ah."

"How do I remember that you never wore a school uniform when you went to school?"

"ugly."

"Oh, but when I first met you, I was wearing that school uniform. Do you think I'm ugly?"

When I came back to my senses, Chen Jiu had already walked some distance into the alley.

But this time, I no longer have to look at Chen Jiuyuan's lonely back.

I ran forward a few steps, held his hand under the cover of night, and walked side by side on the way home.

"So, am I ugly in school uniform?" I insisted, "Why didn't you answer."

"do not remember."

"Oh," I leaned closer to him, "it's pretty if you don't remember, you just don't want to admit it."

Laughing all the way to the corner at the end of the alley, pushed open the gate of the yard, the wicker chair that grandma was sitting on was still there, and the vines in the corner were still growing.

This is the No.11 year when I met Chen Jiu.

The time is just right, and the lover is with you.
