12 Chapter 12

◎The strength is too light◎

Qin Yinian was a little dumbfounded, he couldn't think of the connection.

Why is Shen Lie here? In Chen Jing'an's ward, and being called affectionately, and at night, it was hard for him not to think of something.

"Mr. Shen, why are you here?"

The coat was left in the ward. Shen Lie didn't wear it. He worked on it until midnight. There were no creases that shouldn't be there and the shirt was still shiny. He wanted to smoke, but remembered that he was in the hospital, so he gave up the idea and asked. : "It's weird?"

It seemed like a smile but not a smile.

Qin Yinian restrained his rage and said in a cold voice that he wanted to see Chen Jing'an. Shen Lie took a step forward unhurriedly, blocking the way.

"I told her, she's asleep."

"Don't block the road." Qin Yinian gritted his teeth.

"Mr. Qin is in a hurry." Shen Lie lowered his eyes and pulled his collar. The lipstick on the collar and the traces on the neck were light or heavy, which was very eye-catching. "I was so anxious that I didn't have time to deal with the smell of meat on my body." , do you think it's appropriate?"

Qin Yinian reacted and instinctively pulled back the collar. He eagerly wanted to button it up, as if he could hide it and pretend that nothing happened. He didn't look at Shen Lie: "This is me and "It was about Jing'an."

"In the past, maybe."

"What do you mean?"

Shen Lie didn't explain.

Qin Yinian clenched his fists and frowned restrainedly. He wanted to take action, but there were too many interests that tied his hands and feet. He knew where he was and where Shen Lie was. The world was inherently unfair. Some people are at the top in life, while some people are inferior to others from birth.

Clenching his fists and then releasing them, he wanted to turn around and leave, but when he caught a glimpse of the nurse looking around, he felt that he was being ridiculous. He turned around and asked abruptly: "When did you get together?"

"Sir, this is a hospital, please pay attention. Speak louder." The nurse's voice floated from behind.

Shen Lie raised his hand, chuckled, and motioned for him to handle it.

"How long have you been together?"

"Two years, what?"

"Two years, and this is how you look at her?"

"Otherwise? How should I look at you when you come out of his ward in the middle of the night?" Qin Yinian felt it was ironic, He had been chasing Chen Jing'an for more than half a year. How long had they known each other?

Shen Lie smiled: "And you, where did you come from?"

"This is between her and me."

Qin Yinian looked vaguely impatient: "Tell me, when? Before I was transferred to Bincheng, or After that? I didn’t know that Mr. Shen had a unique taste and a hobby for second-hand

things

. Nian, if you had this intention, you should have said it earlier, why go through such a big circle, it's not like you can't give it to me when I get tired of playing with it."

Qin Yinian raised his hand to wipe his lips, but he couldn't hide the trembling. He felt that he was being fooled and cheated. Disgusting, everything he did became excusable and he wasn't the only one making mistakes. He thought about that night when he took Chen Jing'an to meet his elder brother. Did it start at that time? In front of him, secretly communicating?

He couldn't help but wonder, what would Chen Jing'an look like in front of Shen Lie, gentle, considerate, or the complete opposite?

"How long have you been together? How far along have you gone? Have you kissed or gone to bed?"

The first answer was the sound of the ward door opening.

Chen Jing'an was wearing a hospital gown, her fluids had been transfused, and there were needles and bandages on the back of her hands. The pale lights in the corridor shone on her body, and her complexion didn't look much better. She blinked her eyes slowly, and finally focused on Qin Yinian. In fact, she was not sleeping. She couldn't sleep and was lying on the hospital bed.

She heard those words word for word. For the first time, Chen Jing'an felt that a person was sad to a certain extent, but she was no longer sad. Her eyes were dry and there was nothing left in them.

"Jing'an."

This time, Qin Yinian was really flustered. Seeing her current appearance, his confidence disappeared. How could he not know who Chen Jing'an was.

"I'm sorry, you broke up with me. I was completely confused. Don't take those words seriously. I was really confused and only said it..."

Chen Jing'an walked over to him and slapped him in the face.

"Get out." The voice was hoarse.

With this slap, the last subtle connection between the two people was severed.

Qin Yinian tilted his face, put his tongue against the area where he was hit, and swallowed the unfinished words back into his throat. It was like a fish bone stuck in the past. The pain was not obvious, but it was unbearable. If he swallowed harder, some would just burn. Burning sensation.

Now that the matter is over, what more can be said?

Chen Jing'an blinked and repeated: "Get out of here."

The nurse stepped forward at the right time and took Qin Yinian away. She said that it was late and visitors were not allowed here, so that the patient could have a good rest.

Chen Jing'an looked at Qin Yinian's back until he disappeared in the corner.

it's over.

It's completely over between them.

After a long while, Chen Jing'an turned around and walked back. Shen Lie was still far away, calm and calm. He would always be like this, staying calm and distant. He could choreograph a good show with just a move of his fingers. People like him should become directors.

"Mr. Shen is satisfied with murder and heart-breaking this time?" Chen Jing'an asked.

Shen Lie, who never concealed anything, replied: "I'm too weak."

Chen Jing'an suddenly smiled: "Mr. Shen, I don't want to see you either."

The implication is, get out of here too.

Chen Jing'an walked into the ward. When she closed the door, her face became completely cold. She leaned against the door and stayed in a daze for a while. Her eyes had adapted to the darkness before she walked towards the hospital bed.

Shen Lie outside the door raised his eyebrows in surprise, then twitched his lips for a moment with a deep smile. He did not go in. Although he knew that the ward could not be locked and he did not take his coat, he brought his mobile phone with him and called the driver while getting out. building.

When the driver received the call, he was in a ward near the hospital. He thought something was wrong, so he reflexively got up from the bed and pretended to leave the room and go downstairs.

It is true that I have to go downstairs and find another room for the boss.

He was stunned for a moment. There was a sofa bed in the ward. He thought Shen Lie was not used to living there, but he heard the boss slowly say: "There is no way, someone told me to get out."

Who?

There were only two people in the ward, and it seemed that the only one who had the courage to tell Shen Lie to leave was Miss Chen.

"..."

But why does the driver feel that the boss is not only not angry, but actually very happy?

It's early in the morning.

The ward was already empty. The hospital informed Chen Jing'an that she had paid her medical and hospitalization fees and that people had been gone for an hour.

The driver went downstairs to tell the truth about the situation. Shen Lie flipped through the documents, page after page. It was not surprising that if she was still here, she would not be Chen Jing'an. He lazily raised his eyelids and asked to drive back to the capital.

-

Breaking up was not as difficult as expected. Chen Jing'an was calm on the surface, and even Ruan Ling was so angry that she cursed Qin Yinian for several days. The person involved comforted her instead, and Ruan Ling also followed suit. Afterwards, they tacitly agreed not to mention the name, as if they didn't. Man, everything is at peace.

Chen Jing'an felt that the breakup was more like labor pain. After all, they had been together for two years and had done too many places and things. She would suddenly think of it, but she had to pretend that nothing happened.

But Shen Lie didn't show up again to give her a breather.

Chen Jing'an thought happily that he might have lost interest in her, or maybe his interest from the beginning was only to turn her life upside down. Now that he had done that, he naturally lost interest and turned to find other fun.

She is trying to return to normal life, taking classes, practicing, visiting teachers, occasionally having social activities, eating and chatting with her senior brothers and sisters, reporting to her parents about her life, and is no different from ordinary college students.

Chen's mother would make a habit of video chatting with her daughter every week to ask about her study status and whether she was short of money. But tonight, Chen Jing'an clearly felt the tiredness on her mother's face, holding her face up and smiling reluctantly.

"Are you busy lately?" Chen Jing'an asked with concern.

Mother Chen shook her head and smiled: "No, maybe she didn't get enough rest."

Chen Jing'an didn't pay attention at first, but after chatting for a few more words, she found that her mother seemed to be out of sorts. After asking a few more questions, Mother Chen took off her eyes and rubbed them. face, and then put it on again, returning to his usual gentle appearance: "It's nothing, you are a child, don't worry so much."

"Mom, I am an adult."

Mother Chen closed her eyes and sighed: "It's your uncle's problem. It's not a big deal, it's just a little troublesome and a bit troublesome."

"What's wrong with uncle? Is it something on the construction site?" Chen Jing'an frowned.

Uncle He Songwen has never been married and treats her as his own child. The two are only twelve years apart, but their relationship is more like that of brother and sister. She always loved to cling to him when she was a child.

"Don't ask, it's all adults' business."

Her parents didn't want to say anything, so Chen Jing'an could only ask her uncle, but she got the same answer.

He Songwen heard that she was a little angry and said with a smile: "It's really nothing. Don't you know about your uncle? I will be in the city in the next few days and come to see our great musicians."

Hearing He Songwen's relaxed tone, Chen Jing'an didn't ask any more questions.

What we really found out was a few days later, when He Songwen and Chen Jing'an made an appointment to have dinner at a restaurant near the school. He Songwen pinched her face and told her that she had lost weight, and ordered a large table of food. After eating for a while, He Songwen's cell phone kept ringing. He asked Chen Jing'an to eat first while he got up to answer the phone.

"Everyone just makes a living. I have been doing municipal engineering for so many years. Not to mention old people, I still have some qualifications. Brother Lin, this shouldn't be done."

"I know, I will correct the problems, but Is it intentional that you keep holding on to me? How many times have you invited me to dinner? How can I pay for this project? "

"Can you do me a favor? I owe you this favor."

"... ..."

He Songwen hung up the phone, turned around, saw Chen Jing'an, and tapped her forehead: "When did you get into the habit of eavesdropping on the phone?"

Chen Jing'an asked, "So it's about the project?"

I couldn't hide it. He Songwen just said a few words. He took over the sewage treatment project in the suburbs of Beijing two years ago. When it was completed, it was stuck in the acceptance process. The supervisor was responsible for not letting in oil and salt. He found all kinds of problems. He had been working on the project for so long. , knowing that the other party intended to cause trouble, the project was reported many times and reviewed in various ways at this time. The project cannot be inspected and accepted, and the project funds cannot be paid. Money is needed everywhere.

"It's normal for people who work on projects, so you don't have to think too much about it. I came here this time to ask for help."

"Is there any way?"

He Songwen picked up some food for her and said no more, "Don't worry about adults' affairs, children."

"Here again." Chen Jing'an held her chopsticks and sighed.

After the meal was over, the phone call came again. This time, He Songwen didn't avoid her anymore. He said all kinds of nice things to her with a smiling face on the phone, and finally the other party gave him a number.

"Write it down."

He Songwen took out the pen and paper he brought with him and wrote: "The surname is Shen, Mr. Shen."

Chen Jing'an shook her hands and the vegetables she picked up with her chopsticks fell back into the bowl. The familiar feeling made her whole body tremble. It was as if Shen Lie was right in front of her, gentle and elegant, he pulled out a chair and sat down opposite her, clasping his hands together, telling her happily that the game was not over yet, that he was not tired of it yet.
