After breakfast, Shen Jianian was about to go back to his room to sleep. Cheng Jin looked at the calendar and saw that it was not Saturday yet: "Aren't you going to learn piano today?"
Shen Jianian said: "I'm a little tired, so I asked the teacher for leave."
"Then you have a good rest. I won't clean the upstairs for the time being."
Shen Jia Nian lay on the bed, tossing and turning, because he had something on his mind. Even if he fell asleep later, he did not sleep deeply, and was always in a state of half dreaming and half awake.
Got up at noon, had something to eat, and then went to bed.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, she woke up, picked up her phone, and saw a text message from Fu Jichen, sent more than an hour ago, telling her that she was safe.
Shen Jianian replied with the word "received" and lifted up the quilt. She changed out of her home clothes, put on a sweater and jeans, put on a pair of white sneakers, and said hello to Aunt Cheng, saying she wanted Go out and see friends.
Cheng Jin remembered her husband's instructions and reminded her: "Don't forget to call the driver and ask him to take you there."
Shen Jianian smiled and said that he had just called Xiao Zheng.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Zheng came over, drove the car out of the basement and parked it under the porch.
Shen Jianian waved to Cheng Jin, went out and got into the car, telling Xiao Zheng that he was going to the hospital.
There was a huge traffic jam on the road and it took more than half an hour to arrive.
As Shen Jia Nian opened the car door, he took out his cell phone and called Bai Changxia to confirm that she was in the ward. Shen Jia Nian hung up the phone.
Having been here once before, she found the ward with ease and knocked on the door.
The person who came to open the door was Bai Changxia. He had already put on short-sleeved clothes in advance, his short hair was tied into a low ponytail, his eyebrows were handsome, and he looked more haggard due to lack of sleep for a long time.
"Come here?" Bai Changxia smiled with crooked eyes. Two silkworms squeezed out from under his eyelids. He held the doorknob and stepped aside to make it easier for her to come in.
Mother Bai had just woken up after a long sleep, and she seemed to be in better spirits than before. When she saw the large and small bags of things in Shen Jianian's hand, she frowned and said in an angry tone: "Why did you bring so many things here again?"
Bai Changxia was not polite to Shen Jianian. He took the fruits and nutritional supplements from her hand and said, "Don't listen to my mother. She also said that the nutritional supplements you brought are delicious and don't have a messy taste."
Mother Bai folded her hands and showed an embarrassed expression: "Why do you say everything?"
Bai Changxia raised his eyebrows: "Jia Nian is not an outsider."
Shen Jianian walked to the bedside and nodded in agreement: "Xia Xia is right, you must never see me outside."
Bai Changxia went to the bathroom to wash the fruit, and a voice came out from inside, continuing to dismantle her mother: "She was talking about you yesterday, saying she hadn't seen you in some days, ah, and she was watching videos of you playing the cello on her tablet, and I found out ”
Mother Bai couldn't stop her. When she finished speaking, she glared at her back: "This enemy."
Bai Changxia came out of the bathroom and happened to see her glaring expression. He smiled even more cheerfully: "Don't glare at me. What you said is the truth."
Shen Jia Nian smiled and curled his eyes, feeling rarely relaxed.
Bai Changxia moved a chair for her to sit on, handed her a bowl of washed strawberries and cherries, and sat beside the hospital bed with her long legs crossed: "Why are you free to come here today? Didn't you go to Teacher Yan's place?"
"I asked for leave from him." Shen Jia Nian wanted to meet the person he wanted to see before leaving.
The three of them chatted about some daily topics in the ward. It was after five o'clock, and the setting sun shone in through the window. It was golden and made people feel warm and beautiful.
Shen Jianian stood up to say goodbye, and Bai's mother asked her daughter to go down to see someone off and have a meal outside.
Bai Changxia took a coat and put it on, put his hands into his pockets, and said with a smile: "I still need your instructions, I must give it away."
There were many people waiting in front of the elevator on this floor. The floor was not high. The two took the emergency passage instead. The light was a little dark. Shen Jia Nian held on to the handrail of the stairs and walked down slowly.
The surroundings are quiet, suitable for private conversations.
Shen Jia Nian thought about it secretly for a while, then turned to look at Bai Changxia's blurred face in the dim light. Thinking of the emails she sent to herself when she disappeared for no reason last time, she planned to disclose them to her in advance this time so as not to worry her, but she He didn't make his words completely clear to avoid causing trouble to her in the future: "Xia Xia, I will be busy next time and may lose contact with you temporarily. Don't worry, I will be fine."
Bai Changxia's raised steps paused and landed on the next step: "What are you busy with?"
Shen Jianian dug her nails into the wooden armrest and pretended to smile relaxedly: "Keep it secret for now."
Bai Changxia narrowed his eyes at her suspiciously, feeling that she was a little weird today. After thinking for a long time, he tried to guess: "Did she accept a new performance announcement and sign a confidentiality agreement?"
The first episode of "Shining Starlight" hasn't aired yet, but Shen Jianian's fame has spread, and some commercial actors may come to her after hearing the news.
Shen Jia Nian smiled but said nothing.
Seeing her reaction, Bai Changxia thought she had guessed it right, but she couldn't admit it openly due to the agreement.
The two people walked out of the safe passage, and the light was bright.
Bai Changxia looked at Shen Jianian. The evening glow shone on her face, and the fine fuzz on her skin was dyed light gold. Looking at the horizon, the sun was like a sanded salted egg yolk, red in the middle, and a circle around it. Orange.
Shen Jia Nian raised his neck slightly, feeling the temperature of the setting sun, and suddenly turned to Bai Changxia and said, "Do you have anything else to do next?"
"The hospital has nurses taking care of it. It doesn't matter if you go back later. Are you okay?"
"I have something to ask of you."
"Be polite to me. If you have any questions, just tell me." Bai Changxia took his hand out of his pocket, took her arm, and led her outside the hospital.
Shen Jianian pretended to be a little shy, pointed to the restaurant across the street and said, "Let's eat first, and then we'll talk after we finish. I'll treat you."
"Then I'll have to kill him." Bai Changxia joked.
The two of them crossed the road, walked into a nicely decorated restaurant opposite, and ordered four dishes and one soup.
Bai Changxia poured herself and Shen Jia Nian a cup of barley tea each. Holding the cups with both hands, the heat spread on her face. She looked over Shen Jia Nian's shoulders and towards the floor-to-ceiling windows facing the street outside, recalling some memories of school days. I shared with Shen Jianian what happened during the period: "Do you remember that there is a very delicious chicken on the street behind our school? We go there to eat once a week, and every time we meet boys who come to chat with you. , I drove them away for you."
Mentioning the past, Shen Jia Nian showed a warm smile on her face. Recalling the carefree time at that time, her tone was inevitably nostalgic: "Why don't you remember that one time I was a gangster from another school and didn't say anything? After just two sentences, you started to touch me, and you almost got into a fight."
Bai Changxia pinched his arm through his clothes: "Muscles are not exercised in vain."
Shen Jia Nian smiled even brighter and narrowed his eyes into curved arcs.
The waiter brought the dishes they ordered and put them on the table. The two of them chatted while eating. It was getting dark after dinner, and the street lights outside came on one after another.
Bai Changxia took the initiative to ask Shen Jia Nian what happened when he asked her to ask her for something in the hospital.
"Don't you have a jade carving workshop at home?" Shen Jianian said, "Can you let me go in and use it? I want to carve something."
Fu Jichen gave her his own piece, and she wanted to carve one with her own hands and give it to him.
Bai Changxia made an "OK" gesture with both hands and waved it in front of her, indicating that there was no problem at all. As she pushed open the glass door and walked out of the restaurant, she said with a smile: "When I was just eating, I was thinking about what big thing you would ask me to help with. It turned out to be this, a piece of cake. Do you want to use it now? Or wait until tomorrow." Let’s talk during the day.”
Shen Jia Nian thought for a while, it was best to finish it as soon as possible: "Now."
"OK."
Bai Changxia did not hesitate, stood on the roadside, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called the workshop master to make sure there was someone there, and decided to take Shen Jiannian there.
The two of them were in a car driven by Xiao Zheng. In the car, Bai Changxia couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked Shen Jianian: "Why do you think of carving something?"
As soon as she finished speaking, something suddenly occurred to her. She glanced at the black rope wrapped around Shen Jia Nian's wrist. There was a delicate jade carving hanging from the bottom. She had seen it in the hospital before and thought it looked familiar. Now she remembered that it was Fu Jichen who was holding it. The one I was playing with. She noticed it when we went to Tanfu Temple last time.
"As a gift?" Bai Changxia raised his eyebrows, his tone slightly raised.
Shen Jia Nian did not hide this, pursed his lips and smiled softly: "Yes, give it to him."
It is self-evident who this "he" refers to.
Bai Changxia looked at the smile on her lips and was very sure that she was now so in love with Boss Fu that she couldn't help but love him. (End of chapter)
