Chapter 36 [Forbidden Stealing]
Chapter 36 [Forbidden Stealing]
"Oh my God, Miaomiao? It's so miserable. I went to the mall to buy a bag just now. I just parked the car and turned around and saw Duan Han..."
On the phone, my aunt's voice was intermittent, Jiang Miao absent-mindedly hummed a few times, and Chen Longyu realized something was wrong after saying a few words.
□□ Quiet.
She couldn't help asking: "What are you doing?"
"I'm outside right now." Jiang Miao lowered his voice and took a few steps outside, "Is there something? I'll tell you when I get back."
My aunt had a puzzled look on her face, so she was hung up on the phone.
"that……"
Jiang Miao rubbed her nose, feeling a little uncomfortable, "She's gone, let's go back."
Duan Han hummed calmly.
The two got into the car side by side, speechless all the way.
The black-colored car gradually drove away from the dim parking lot, and there was a lot of traffic outside the window. Jiang Miao rolled down the window, and the loud noises of pedestrians rushed in, which immediately eased the embarrassment in the car.
"Well," Jiang Miao looked at the rearview mirror and brushed her hair absently, "I'm sorry I was in the parking lot just now. My aunt just broke up with her a while ago, and she is in a hurry to find a new boyfriend. I told her After several times, she refused to listen, so she had to say that you are gay..."
"You're right." Duan Han didn't care, "So you avoided her just now, didn't you want her to think you were too?"
"how is this possible?!"
Jiang Miao retorted subconsciously, but she was stunned again when she said this sentence.
In the eyes of my aunt, Duan Han is already a gay guy who was beaten to death, and there is nothing wrong with him.But in Duan Han's eyes, it looked more like he didn't want to come out of the closet, so he kept it from his aunt and didn't want to expose the relationship between the two of them.
"...Don't think about it, it's not like that." Jiang Miao said irritably, "I stopped her just now for other reasons, but it's not easy to explain to you."
"I know," Duan Han said, "I'm not thinking about it."
The red light at the intersection in front of him turned on accurately with the countdown. Duan Han stopped the car, opened a can of Sprite from the small drawer, and handed him the chocolate inside.
"Drink?"
Jiang Miao was distracted, took the Sprite indiscriminately, and smiled politely, "Your equipment here is quite complete..."
"Well, I'm afraid that when you want to drink, I will prepare it." Duan Han looked at the red letter that was beating not far away, with a calm expression, "I'm sorry about what happened just now."
Jiang Miao was slightly taken aback, and said dully, "It's not your fault either. I should have told you in advance. You don't need to apologize."
The more I said it, the weirder it became.
In the end, he still didn't know how to measure, and thought that after the rejection, he could still get along like normal friends. However, this procrastinating way of handling caused the current situation.
He thought about it, and made up his mind, "I'll start looking at the new house tomorrow..."
"Miaomiao."
Jiang Miao raised her head, "Huh?"
"Do you want to think about it?"
Duan Han turned around and said seriously, "I look good and have my own business. Looking at it now, there will be no signs of bankruptcy in the past 20 years. I can fully support your career or hobbies. In addition, Although my parents are stubborn, they won't interfere in my life..."
"Stop, stop, stop!"
The more Jiang Miao listened, the more confused she became. Why did she still sell herself?
"Maybe I didn't express myself clearly. I can't be with you." Jiang Miao was afraid that he couldn't speak clearly, so he gestured with his fingers, "If I do anything out of line these days, let you I apologize to you for the misunderstanding. I have seriously reflected on it just now, and I will find another room to move out later. "
"To be honest, I'm not a person who can accept... that kind of intimacy." He considered it again and again, but decided to be merciless and give Duan a strong dose of medicine, "When I think of kissing or something... I can't do it at all." If you accept it, you will feel a little nauseous."
"That means, apart from intimacy, everything else is acceptable?"
Jiang Miao: "???"
Young man, your angle is too strange? ?
"I can assure you." Duan Han held up three fingers, "Until you agree, I will not kiss or hug you, nor will I have any other intimate actions. Just treat it as a platonic love, how about it?"
Jiang Miao: "..."
What is the difference between falling in love without kissing and hugging and salting fish? !
"You're too dazed now." Jiang Miao couldn't help pulling on her seat belt, and said earnestly, "I'm not that handsome, and my personality is not the best in the world. Let go, young man, there's no need to hug me." Nibbling on the same tree, there is no grass anywhere in the world..."
Before he could finish speaking, a bell rang suddenly.
"Sorry, I'll answer the phone." Duan Han heaved a sigh of relief, and looked down, it turned out to be a private detective.
"Hello? What's the matter?"
The conversation next door had started again, so Jiang Miao could only hold back the conversation.
"Well. It's convenient, you say."
I don't know whose call Duan Han is answering.
Jiang Miao drank the Coke in his hand one after another, and the can was empty after a while.He rubbed it, and threw the bottle into the trash can not far away with one hand.
Three-pointers, full marks.
"Did you find it? Where is it? Qinghe City?" Duan Han tapped the recording button and recorded the key words, "Name?...Okay, I got it."
He said something short and hung up the phone.
"Qinghe City? What Qinghe City?"
Jiang Miao, who was in the passenger seat, was a little dazed when she first heard about her hometown.Looking back, this novel is a semi-fictional novel based on reality, and it is not surprising that there is Qinghe City...
But Qinghe City is thousands of miles away from here, and it is still a small city that is not very famous. How could this be mentioned suddenly?
"Hasn't Zheng Ran been checking on River's affairs?"
At the end of the red light, the black Bentley slowly melted into the rolling traffic.
Duan Han replied while driving, "I finally got some clues today. I heard that he is from Qinghe. I just happen to be going on a business trip next month, so I just asked Zheng Ran to come with me."
"Oh, that's right." He said casually, "That River is the same as you, and also has the surname Jiang. I guess the circle name is based on the surname."
Jiang Miao: "......"
He laughed twice, "Not necessarily, isn't Zheng Ran still called Tree? But there is no wood in his name."
"Of course the tree is taken from the river."
After Duan Han finished speaking, he glanced at him, you stupid little fool was written all over his face.
Jiang Miao: "..."
Your uncle's.
He panicked for a moment, and secretly probed, "Then did you find out what his name is?"
"No." Duan Han shook his head, "There are many Jiang surnames in Qinghe City, and we don't know River's age and appearance. We can only infer from the clues he left on social networking sites."
"That's it."
Jiang Miao just breathed a sigh of relief, only to hear Duan Han continue, "But we have found his case in the United States. During the time when the rumors spread, there were records of him receiving tendonitis treatment in the United States. I think, before that, He must have contacted the tertiary hospitals in this city, and continued down this line..."
He paused, and saw Jiang Miao's dull, slightly pale lips from the mirror.
"what happened?"
Duan Han subconsciously turned on the turn signal, parked the car on the side of the road, touched his forehead immediately after unfastening his seat belt, and poked his neck again, with a serious face, "Is there something uncomfortable?"
"I……"
Before Jiang Miao had time to break out in a cold sweat, Duan Han touched her back and forth a few times, and was dumbfounded, "No, it's okay. I'm just...a little surprised."
"Are you really alright?" He frowned, holding Jiang Miao's face and looking carefully, "It was fine just now, why did you suddenly look so bad?"
Jiang Miao lowered his eyes, opened his hands and sat down again, vaguely prevaricating, "Maybe I'm too hungry, the car was a little stuffy just now, I was a little motion sick."
"Hypoglycemia? Did you suffer from motion sickness before? I'll see if there is a pharmacy near here later."
Just as Duan Han was going to get the chocolate, Jiang Miao held down his hand halfway.
"No need." Jiang Miao stepped back and took a breath, emphasizing again, "No need, I'm fine now. It's just that I took a breath just now and didn't recover."
Duan Han paused, and then slowly retracted his fingertips after a while.
At that moment, he remembered what Jiang Miao had said to himself, saying that he was too rigid and always lived as if wearing a mask.He obeyed and tried to take it off, but this time, he seemed to see the mask on Jiang Miao's face.
He tried his best to untie it, but it seemed that the mask was the result of Jiang Miao's behest.
...Maybe he really misunderstood.
"it is good."
Duan Han answered like this.
·
After returning home, he couldn't eat hot hot pot. Jiang Miao said that his throat was a little sore. It may be that the temperature difference has been too big recently, and his tonsils were accidentally inflamed.
Duan Han didn't say anything, and ordered a takeaway porridge for him, and bought a box of Banlangen and 999 Ganmaoling by the way.
After get off work the next day, Duan Han sat in the office working overtime after a long absence, when he suddenly received a strange call.
The numbers come from far across the ocean.
There are very few people who know his personal phone number. Although there are a few who have studied abroad, they have stayed in North America so far...
Duan Han picked up the phone with a declarative tone, "Calm."
"...I'll go." The person on the phone sighed suddenly, "I purposely used my new number to call you, so that you can still recognize me?"
"After all, among the people I know, there are only a handful of people as boring as you."
Even so, there was a slight smile on Duan Han's face.
Since he moved to the big city from his grandparents' house, most of his friends have lost contact with each other, and few of them can still communicate now.Calmness is one of them.
Calm Rong was born in a lawyer's family. When he went up to his grandparents, he scared his parents, aunts and aunts. The family is all lawyers and they love their profession very much.
Calmness is an outlier in their family.
When he was in high school, he fell in love with the violin with all his heart. In college, despite the opposition of all his relatives, he filled in the major of piano. .
Duan Han turned on the world clock and took a look, "It's only nine o'clock in the morning at your place. It's not your style to wake up so early... have you returned to your country?"
"...Brother, it's boring for you to do this."
Calmly and completely convinced, "I kept my name anonymous and finally wanted to give you a surprise, and you broke my carefully prepared plan."
"Thank you, I have seen too much about your surprise, so I will leave it to your little girlfriends."
"What are you talking about, I'm single, don't pour dirty water on me." Calmly poohed him, "I'm telling you something serious, our group wants to adapt a classic symphony... You don't even understand , anyway, we want to incorporate some elements of Chinese style. Right now we are collecting folk songs in City C, which will last for about a week, see if you have time, let's get together?"
"Are you in City C?"
Duan Han was very surprised.
City C is very close to Qinghe City, about half an hour's drive away.
The leisurely gathering method is also very simple, just open a private room or booth, drink and chat, and if there is a ball game, which team will win, if you make a mistake, you will 'pay for the drinks tonight', very luxurious and dissolute. It is completely inconsistent with the old-fashioned and upright lawyer's family.
For a while, Duan Han wondered whether Congrong was picked up from outside. When he was young and naive, he secretly plucked a piece of his hair. Unfortunately, he couldn't find Congrong's hair for DNA test, so he gave up.
Duan Han usually annoys this kind of drinking party the most. When he was about to refuse, he suddenly thought of something, and after a long silence, he suddenly changed his mind.
"I'm going to Qinghe tomorrow. You book the time and send it to me with your name and location." He warned, "Just drink, don't order me those messy things."
"...?"
Cong Rong was still smiling mischievously at first, but he was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, "Ah? What, you really want to go?"
Duan Han: "Yes."
"Didn't you not like these before?" He said calmly, pulling his hair, and said with a sad face, "I was joking with you just now, Mr. Duan, tomorrow we will have a fellowship, so you can pity me. Here's my chance to get out!"
"..."
Duan Han slammed the notebook shut, as cold as ice, "I'll see you at ten o'clock tomorrow night."
