In the silent place

Chapter 32

After taking a shower, Zhan Zhao felt a little pain under his eyelids.Stretching out his hand to wipe off the fog on the mirror, he raised his eyebrows close to the mirror and looked carefully.Since I just took a shower, the skin around the eyes looks thin and tender, slightly red, but there is no subcutaneous bleeding.On the contrary, there were small red dots like needle pricks scattered under the neck near the collarbone. He stretched out his hand and touched it, but it didn't hurt.Turning around, grabbed the towel and wiped it on the head twice, changed into pajamas, and walked out of the bathroom.

Jiang Dong heard the movement, propped himself up and turned his head to look. "Washed?"

"En." Zhan Zhao felt sleepy, covered his mouth and yawned.

"Did you get the needle?"

"not yet."

"Call now." Jiang Dong said, standing up from the sofa.

"it is good."

Walking into the bedroom, Zhan Zhao took out the tools and medicine needed for injection from the drawer, skillfully cut open the glass bottle neck of the injection medicine, and sucked the medicine liquid into the syringe little by little.

"Where to play today?" Jiang Dong asked beside him.

Passing the syringe to his cousin, Zhan Zhao touched his butt, then sat on the edge of the bed, rolled up the sleeves on his arms and said, "Slap your arms."

"The hard lump on the butt hasn't gone away yet?" Jiang Dong's head grew bigger when he heard it, and he was most afraid of giving his cousin an injection in the arm. Once the injection was given, the bag would definitely pop up, which made him feel psychologically shadowed.

"Well, not yet." Zhan Zhao said, looking up at Jiang Dong, seeing him standing still for a long time, he knew that his cousin was worried again, and smiled slightly: "I'll beat it, you help me press the cotton wool That's fine." As he said, he raised his hand and took the needle that the other party was holding up in his hand.

Hearing this, Jiang Dong felt as if he was receiving an amnesty. He felt relieved, and immediately responded, "Okay." After the injection, sweat was seeping on his nose. Although he just pressed the cotton wool, he saw that the needle was completely submerged Under the skin, still feel tense.Usually on the buttocks, he stabs fiercely and pulls them out quickly, but on the arms, he really can't do it, the hairs stand on end when he looks at it.My cousin is like a normal person. "I'm going to go out and watch TV."

"Well, then I'll go to bed first."

"Okay." Jiang Dong helped Zhan Zhao pack up the medicine, turned around and walked out of the bedroom, closing the door gently.

With a goal, Zhan Zhao's life becomes more fulfilling, and the days flow by like running water.Bai Yutang's casting work for "Worthy" has also entered the final sprint stage. He is extremely busy every day, and the two are working hard for their lives and careers.After work was over for the day, Bai Yutang looked at his watch, and before six o'clock in the afternoon, he remembered that he hadn't seen that cat for a while, so he was really thinking about it.He has always been a man of action, and at this moment the feeling of longing suddenly came up, and without thinking, he drove straight to Aunt Zhan Zhao's house.

"Boy Bai? Come in quickly." Jiang Yewan opened the door, saw Bai Yutang whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and hurriedly called him into the room. "Are you busy recently? Haven't come for a long time."

"Yes, I can't get away recently, I just got free today." Bai Yutang walked in and looked into the hall. "Uncle, is Zhan Zhao there?"

"He and your aunt went downstairs to buy things, and he will be back soon. You go to the house and wait for him for a while."

Hearing old man Jiang's words, Bai Yutang seemed to have taken a reassurance, and a smile filled his brows and eyes. "You and your aunt are going on this long journey, and the journey is going well."

"It's okay, it's just that the festival just ended and there are a lot of people." The two of them walked into the living room while talking.Jiang Yewan went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea, brought it over and put it on the coffee table. "Sit down, I'll cook, and leave a piece to eat later."

"I'll help you." Bai Yutang said, standing up from the sofa.

"Don't touch your hands, it's all simple home-cooked meals." Jiang Yewan waved to Bai Yutang, walked out of the living room and turned into the kitchen.After waiting for a while, before Zhan Zhao came back, Bai Yutang leaned on the armrest of the sofa, shaking his sore neck, his eyes were sore.In the past few days, the casting of "Worth It" is coming to an end, and the major media are scrambling to interview and report. The daily work schedule is from morning to night, and I am so tired that I can't catch my breath. When I get home, I fall asleep. Several phone calls.As soon as he thought of that cat, his heart was instantly filled with a soft and warm emotion.It's been ten years since Zhan Zhao's appearance, like a stream of clear spring, has flowed into his heart, and after several rounds, it has already infiltrated into the blood vessels and meridians.That person always exudes a kind of tranquility and tranquility, just like the faint blue in the sky, secluded and pure.But he knew that the tenacity and stubbornness in the opponent's bones would never lose to him.He never made a show of himself in doing things, but he had to compete with him in everything. Whenever he thought he had surpassed the other party by a long way, when he turned around, the man was always not far behind him, smiling and silent. moving forward.Even now, it is the same.Thinking of this, Bai Yutang couldn't help laughing, Zhan Zhao is such a person, he is always neither humble nor overbearing, but no one thinks that he is lofty, in the face of the complicated things in the world, no matter whether it is blame or praise, he can always face it calmly and calmly. deal with it.Before he got up, he casually picked up the newspaper on the coffee table and flipped through it. A large block of marks circled in red and blue pens caught his attention. When he took a closer look, they were all advertisements for renting houses for investment.Just as he was about to take a closer look, he suddenly heard the doorbell ring loudly. He threw down the newspaper in a hurry, and ran to open the door full of joy.

When Liu Rong saw Bai Yutang, she nodded with a smile, turned to look at her nephew, wanted to say something but didn't say it, turned and went into the room.Seeing her serious face, Bai Yutang didn't know what happened, so he pulled Zhan Zhao and asked, "Did you make your aunt angry?"

Zhan Zhao glanced at him, said nothing, changed his shoes and walked inside.Bai Yutang followed him and saw that he kept raising his hand to wipe his nose, so he couldn't help squinting his eyes to look closely at his face.

"The painted-faced cat, here." Bai Yutang said as he touched the corner of his right mouth.

"Excuse me, I'll go take a shower." Zhan Zhao quickly walked into the bathroom, covering his mouth and nose.Bai Yutang, who was behind him, looked at his almost fleeing figure, showing a sly smile.

Standing in front of the sink, Zhan Zhao looked at his face, knowing that he had been fooled, and smiled slightly, letting go of his hanging heart.Spring is dry and prone to nosebleeds.Just now when I was going out with my aunt, my nose bleeds suddenly while walking, my aunt hurriedly helped him to sit on the side of the road, and then ran to the small shop next to him to buy several packs of wet tissues and came back to wipe his nosebleed , shaking hands uncontrollably.Fortunately, the bleeding was not much, and it stopped soon.Unscrewing the faucet, he washed his face, rinsed his mouth again, raised his neck slightly to check, and made sure there was no more bleeding, picked up a towel to wipe off the water on his face, and walked out of the bathroom with a smile.

When I came to the living room, I saw the 'liar' lazily leaning on the sofa.Zhan Zhao walked over, kicked the man's feet, and sat down beside him. "Why? Are you here for dinner again?"

"Actually, I'm here to learn art, but today your uncle won't let me help, so I'm happy to have a leisurely time."

Zhan Zhao didn't listen to his nonsense, leaned over and poured himself a cup of tea, leaning on the armrest and half leaning on the sofa.Seeing that he was leisurely and content like a lazy cat, Bai Yutang couldn't help laughing, and quickly brushed the slightly wet hair on his forehead with his hand. "Cat, you really went to wash your face?" Zhan Zhao glanced at him, put the teacup on the coffee table, raised his hand and scratched his hair randomly. "A kitten catching lice? Come, let me help you."

"Bai Yutang! Your skin is itchy, right?"

Seeing that he was about to be beaten, Bai Yutang immediately raised his arms to protect his body, and muttered with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you don't want to be friendly." He tilted his body and looked sideways at Zhan Zhao. Slowly put away the raised arms, let out a 'hoo' breath, but just as soon as he let down his vigilance, he was kicked on the calf by his foot. "Why are you so violent!" He rubbed his calf and shouted in pain, his eyes were full of complaints and grievances.

"It's easy to kick you!" Glancing at Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao got up and took out this photo album from the bottom floor of the TV cabinet, then picked up the photo he and his aunt just got back from the tea table, and put it in the photo album while looking at it.Seeing the corners of his lips curved, Bai Yutang lowered his head to look intently, moved his body to rub against his side, and tilted his neck to follow him.

"This is a good photo." Bai Yutang said looking at the beautiful pure landscape photo in Zhan Zhao's hand. "Is this Guilin?"

"Well, uncle and the others dropped by."

"Guilin's scenery is the best in the world, and it really deserves its reputation. If you have the opportunity, you must go and see it."

"Haven't you been there?" Zhan Zhao turned his head and asked.

"Well, I've never had a chance." Bai Yutang leaned back on the sofa, passed around Zhan Zhao's back with one hand, and laid it across the back of the chair.Thinking of the sign I saw in the newspaper just now, I put away my playful thoughts and asked with concern: "Mao'er, how is the book club going?"

"I'm still looking for a place. I've made an appointment with a shop owner tomorrow to take a look. The location is pretty good, just near the east gate of the Institute of Science and Technology." As soon as he mentioned this, Zhan Zhao was in high spirits, and Bai Yutang looked at his messy hair. The gleam in Silk and eyes sparkled, and my heart also became excited. "Have you contacted my fourth brother?"

"Not yet." Regarding Jiang Ping, Zhan Zhao had very complicated emotions in his heart.Since we had dinner together last time, the other party sent him some book bar decoration drawings every now and then. He looked at them one by one, and there were all kinds of them.Fourth brother Jiang's enthusiasm made him both moved and guilty. If possible, he didn't really want to bother Jiang Ping. He didn't know what else to do besides say thank you.Sighing lightly, he made up his mind. "When the place is fixed, I will ask the fourth brother to go and have a look."

"Okay, I'll say hello to him later."

"Don't." Zhan Zhao quickly interrupted Bai Yutang. "The fourth brother has been sending me information, and he has spent a lot of thought on this matter. When I need it, I will go to him."

"Then don't look outside, I'm afraid that you will trouble my fourth brother, and you will look far away."

"No, I won't go to someone else just because of my fourth brother's skills." Zhan Zhao knew in his heart that if Jiang Ping helped him like this, if he went to find someone else, he would look down on them.He has always understood this bit of worldliness.Smiling and lowering his head, Zhan Zhao continued to insert photos into the album.The black hair blocked his forehead and covered his eyes, but it just highlighted his straight nose bridge and water chestnut-like curved lips.Bai Yutang looked sideways at the person beside him, wishing he could hold him tightly in his arms and love him a lot.Sighing, he slowly retracted the arm that was resting on the back of the chair behind Zhan Zhao. "Mao'er, the filming of "Worthy" will start in a while, I will be busy for a while, remember to call me if you need anything."

"Well, okay." Zhan Zhao raised his head and smiled faintly at Bai Yutang. "I wish you success soon." After finishing speaking, he touched his head, feeling that something was wrong there, and muttered to himself: "Isn't that what you said?" After thinking about it for a while, suddenly his eyes rolled, his eyebrows curved, and he smiled Anglican said: "Good luck with the start and smooth shooting!" At the end, he added: "It should be right this time."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao, and felt that the cat's silly and nonchalant appearance was really cute, so he jumped over and hugged Zhan Zhao's head, and kissed him on the hair with a 'baji'.His subordinate's body froze, and he immediately realized what he had just done.Teng let go of his hands and stood up, his eyes quickly glanced at the kitchen. "I...I'll help you uncle." He stammered and walked out of the living room as if fleeing.

During dinner, Bai Yutang peeked at the people around him from time to time. Zhan Zhao's expression remained the same, he couldn't see anything, and quietly listened to his uncle and aunt tell him the interesting things he saw during the trip. Ask a few words with a smile.

"Xiao Zhao, come, drink while it's hot." Liu Rong filled a bowl of soup and put it in front of her nephew's table.

"Thank you, aunt." Zhan Zhao smiled lightly, showing a mouthful of broken teeth, looking a bit childish.

Jiang Yewan looked at Bai Yutang on the opposite side, pondering while eating, always feeling something was wrong.Normally, this kid can speak well, what's the matter today?He only cares about grilling rice, and rarely even takes a bite of vegetables. "Boy Bai, are you tired?"

"Ah?" Bai Yutang stopped his chopsticks and raised his head. "Uncle, what did you just say?" Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, knowing that Bai Yutang had something on his mind, so he didn't want to ask more questions. He pointed at the dishes on the table with his chopsticks, and said with a smile, "It's okay, come on, don't be too polite. Eat more food." Zhan Zhao next to him sipped the soup gracefully, without lifting his eyes.

After dinner, Bai Yutang scrambled to help the old man clean up the dishes.There was no sign of Zhan Zhao left or right in the living room, and he was about to go to his bedroom to see that person came out of the bathroom with his cheeks puffed out.When he saw it, he was overjoyed and asked with a smile, "What are you doing?"

"It's okay." Zhan Zhao held his breath when he spoke, which sounded a bit strange.

"toothache?"

"Well, wisdom teeth." Zhan Zhao rubbed his right cheek.

"Get it out, mine has been pulled out a long time ago." Bai Yutang's wisdom teeth grew early, and they were pulled out as soon as they came out. "Once and for all."

"En." Zhan Zhao smiled and walked into the bedroom.In fact, he had already asked Dr. Han. He used to take anti-inflammatory drugs when he had a toothache. Recently, he felt in good health and wanted to solve the problem. However, the blood test showed that the platelets were too low, and the tooth could not be pulled out. I can only endure it for the time being.

Bai Yutang stood at the door holding the door frame and didn't go in. "Cat, there is an interview tomorrow morning, I'll go back first."

"Well, good." Zhan Zhao just walked in, then turned back.

Going to the living room to get his coat, Bai Yutang stood at the door and looked at Zhan Zhao, hesitating to speak. "Cat, I..."

"Be careful when driving on the road." Zhan Zhao instructed, and at the same time interrupted what the other party was about to say.Bai Yutang's gaze was like lightning, as if trying to see through his heart, making it difficult for him to face it.

"Goodbye, cat."

Zhan Zhao nodded lightly, but couldn't say goodbye.The door was lightly closed, he stood for a while, then walked back to the room silently.
