Chu Qiao didn't know why she held him back like this at this time, but Chu Qiao only knew that she was self-willed this time.Ever since she was a child, Chu Qiao has never been like this.So desperately, so flustered, trying to stop a man from meeting another girl.Even if something really happened to the other party, she just didn't want to.

Is this selfish?

Chu Qiao didn't know, she was probably selfish.

Mo Zhengyan smiled, but only thought she was worried about herself, "I'll drive there, nothing will happen."

It is stormy outside, this may be a problem that Chu Qiao is worried about.But in her heart, there was another deep reason.

That is, she didn't want him to go!

Chu Qiao just held him tightly, but still didn't let go. She pursed her lips and looked at him, frowning and repeated that sentence, "It's raining really hard outside."

Mo Zhengyan patted her lightly, signaling her to be at ease, then pulled her hand away, and said, "I'll be back when I go, you continue to sleep."

Chu Qiao held him tightly again, she was unwilling to let go, even at this moment, she was so reckless, almost to the point of unreasonable, even she herself felt that she was so willful and reckless.But she couldn't speak, she didn't know what to say, and she didn't know how to speak.

"Chu Qiao?" Mo Zhengyan's eyes narrowed, with surprise in his eyes.

Chu Qiao bit her lip and looked at him, her thoughts were confused.

At this moment, the call came again, Chu Qiao turned her head to look, and saw the words "Song Yingzi" flashing on the screen.

Mo Zhengyan let go of Chu Qiao's hand, picked up the phone to pick it up, and replied again, "I'm coming."

Chu Qiao was only half lying on the bed, she was silent.

After hanging up the phone, Mo Zhengyan took his coat and put it on, and said, "I'll be back soon."

"On the way..." Chu Qiao wanted to say a word of caution, but before the words finished, it was too late, he had already rushed out, but Chu Qiao felt her heart sink.

Chu Qiao's eyes were a little distracted, and Mo Zhengyan's tall figure quickly walked out of the bedroom.

Chu Qiao was left alone, facing the silent apartment.

And, the world with howling winds outside.

◎◎◎

Mo Zhengyan drove to Song Yingzi's residence, and he drove very fast along the way.When he arrived at Song Yingzi's apartment, he immediately rang the doorbell.

Through a door, Song Yingzi's voice came, "Here we come!"

As soon as the door opened, Song Yingzi appeared in front of Mo Zhengyan in her pajamas.

Mo Zhengyan looked at her, and he was relieved that the whole body was intact.

"Why are you all wet?" Song Yingzi whispered.

Mo Zhengyan's body was slightly wet, the rain wet his shoulders, and some drops of water dripped from his hair.

With a cold air on his body, he suddenly forced in, but the heating was turned on in the apartment, and there was a sharp contrast in an instant.

"Come in!" Song Yingzi hurriedly let him in.

Mo Zhengyan entered the room, turned his head to look at the kitchen again.He took a few steps closer and saw that there were indeed traces of staple food in the kitchen.However, there was no trace of the fire.

Song Yingzi was busy getting him a towel and pouring water for him, "Wipe off, I'll get you a cup of hot water."

The towel was handed to Mo Zhengyan, but he didn't pick it up, but stood at the door of the kitchen. He turned his head to look at Song Yingzi, and asked, "Didn't you say it was on fire?"

Song Yingzi was a little flustered, and he hesitated, "There is a fire! When I was cooking the noodles, I accidentally didn't watch it properly, and it caught fire! Later, I put out the fire with the lid of the pot!"

Mo Zhengyan's eyes turned cold, "How did the fire start!"

When he received the call just now, Mo Zhengyan was also shocked, and his rationality was a little bit disintegrated, so he didn't think about it.If it is just cooking noodles, then it is impossible to catch fire, and it is not a stir-fry.Moreover, after coming here, I realized that there was no such thing as a fire in the kitchen.

Song Yingzi explained, "The water in the pot boiled dry, and then it caught fire. I found out soon!"

Mo Zhengyan frowned, and looked at her for a moment. He didn't say much, but said in a low voice, "Since this is the case, you should be more careful in the future."

"Yes, I see!" Song Yingzi responded obediently, and seeing raindrops falling from his hair, she handed over the towel again, "Zhengyan, you should wipe it off quickly."

Mo Zhengyan took the towel and wiped it off, then asked angrily, "It's the middle of the night, you don't sleep well, why do you cook noodles when you get up?"

"I'm hungry."

"How much do you know how to eat?"

Song Yingzi curled her lips, "It's wrong to be hungry easily?"

Mo Zhengyan thought for a while and said, "In the future, don't go into the kitchen again."

"Then what if I'm hungry?"

"You know how to call for takeaway?" Mo Zhengyan frowned.

"Okay." Song Yingzi had no choice but to respond.

After staying for a while, Mo Zhengyan saw that he was all right, and he made a gesture to leave, "Okay, you go to sleep, I'm leaving."

Song Yingzi held him back, "Are you leaving so soon?"

"Do you know what time it is?" Mo Zhengyan asked back.

Song Yingzi frowned, how could she not know, it was almost two o'clock in the morning, "But, it's raining heavily outside today, and I'm alone again, I'd be afraid to sleep alone."

"Song Yingzi, you are already 20 years old."

"So what? You used to live with me!" Song Yingzi said.

After studying in the United States, Song Yingzi lived with Mo Zhengyan for a long period of time.When the two live together, they live in peace and do not interfere with each other.Mo Zhengyan took good care of Song Yingzi, and the gate control was also strict, so he was afraid that something would happen to her.It wasn't until later that Mo Zhengyan returned to China to develop, and Song Yingzi stayed in the United States alone, living alone.

Mo Zhengyan only thought that maybe it was the protection he had given her before, which made her dependent. He whispered, "It was because you were young before, but now you have grown up."

"Are you planning to ignore me when I grow up?" Song Yingzi asked intently.

Mo Zhengyan frowned and shouted, "Xiaozi."

Song Yingzi knew that he was angry. Mo Zhengyan was usually considerate and gentle, but every time he was angry, he would only call her name without speaking.She didn't dare to say anything more, but she was still stubborn, "Then can you stay and sleep tonight? I'm really afraid of such a heavy rain. And it's so late, so don't go back."

"You know, I'm most afraid of rainy days." Song Yingzi said aggrievedly.

How could Mo Zhengyan not know that Song Yingzi was afraid of such a rainy day.It may be because the day Mother Song died of illness was also such a heavy rain.When I was in the United States, one rainy night in summer, Song Yingzi was so scared that she curled up into a ball and whimpered.Mo Zhengyan, who came back late at that time, heard about it, so he went to find out.At that moment, Song Yingzi who helplessly pursed her lips and had tears in her eyes made Mo Zhengyan feel pity.

Since then, Mo Zhengyan never let her live alone as long as it was a rainy day.

At least, not leaving her alone in the apartment.

Mo Zhengyan looked at her, fell silent for a while, and said, "Actually, there is no fire at all, is there?"

Song Yingzi was taken aback for a moment, she was a little embarrassed to speak, and admitted at this moment, "Yes, there is no fire! But I just want to see you, and I just want you to come and accompany me! I'm really scared by myself!"

After Song Yingzi bit her lip, she clenched her fists and stood in front of Mo Zhengyan like a child who made a mistake.

So helpless, just like that midsummer back then.

Even if Mo Zhengyan had any blame, it all disappeared at this moment. He said in a deep voice, "Xiaozi, you have to learn to grow up."

"I know, I know! But now, can't you stay with me for another night?" Song Yingzi begged.

Mo Zhengyan pondered for a while, and then said, "Tomorrow, I will arrange someone to take care of you."

"Then what about now!" Song Yingzi was obsessed with this moment.

Seeing that he refused, Song Yingzi bit her lip and begged again, "Can you do it one last time? Just the last time!"

Mo Zhengyan looked at her for a while and said, "Go to bed, I won't go."

Song Yingzi's worried and frightened face originally showed a smile after hearing his words, "Okay!"

Mo Zhengyan has always kept his promises, knowing that since he said so, he will definitely not break his promise.Song Yingzi was relieved now, she immediately turned around and went to the bedroom.It's just that when he entered the room, he still didn't forget to turn around and remind him, "Zhengyan, be careful of catching a cold, there is a spare quilt in the next room."

Mo Zhengyan nodded silently, and urged, "Go to sleep."

"Got it." Song Yingzi replied, and immediately closed the door and went to sleep.

Mo Zhengyan took off his coat and sat down on the sofa.He took out his mobile phone and dialed Chu Qiao.

Chu Qiao obviously wasn't asleep either, so she got connected quickly.

Mo Zhengyan said "Hello", and Chu Qiao also asked in response, "Is Yingzi okay here?"

"It's okay, she's fine." Mo Zhengyan said, then paused and said, "Chu Qiao, it's raining a little bit outside, and Xiao Zi is afraid by herself, so I'll stay with her."

There was a moment of silence at the other end, and after a while, Chu Qiao said at the other end, "En, I understand."

"You sleep too."

"kindness."

Immediately, the phone was hung up.

Chu Qiao, who was far away at the other end, was holding the phone, looking at the screen where the call had ended, and suddenly felt empty.

This night, Chu Qiao was almost sleepless.She couldn't fall asleep, and how could she fall asleep.On rainy days, he stayed with another girl.Perhaps, he didn't feel anything, he just regarded her as his younger sister.However, has he ever thought about it, what would she think?

Besides, the reason why he stayed was because Song Yingzi would be afraid alone.

Why didn't he think about whether she would be afraid alone?

Chu Qiao was in torment, tossing and turning all night.Before I knew it, the rain stopped and the sky brightened.

Chu Qiao didn't sleep at all, and woke up early.

Under the eyes is a deep bruise, which proves that she did not sleep well.

◎◎◎

Waking up early in the morning, Chu Qiao didn't know where her mood came from, she was still thinking about whether to make breakfast, maybe Mo Zhengyan would be back soon.Thinking of this, Chu Qiao saw that the time was indeed still early, so she cooked the porridge and even prepared a few side dishes.After getting everything ready, Chu Qiao looked at the time, it was almost eight o'clock.In the past, they also woke up at this time.

Chu Qiao hesitated, but still did not call him.She didn't know what she was worried about, or she didn't want to hear that the person who answered the phone would be another person.Anyway, Chu Qiao still put down the phone.She sat at the dining table in a daze, staring at the porridge and side dishes for a long while.

Then he came back to his senses and glanced at the time, it was already half past eight.

Chu Qiao got up in a hurry, she didn't have time to eat breakfast, and ran out of the apartment directly to the company.

It's very cold in the winter morning, especially the heavy rain last night.

The cold wind hit, but Chu Qiao felt that such coldness was nothing.

Maybe it's because of something in my heart, so today's work efficiency is particularly bad.Even his partner, PHS, noticed Chu Qiao's strangeness, and couldn't help asking, "Chu Qiao, what's wrong with you today?"

Chu Qiao smiled, "It's nothing, I just didn't sleep well."

I really didn't sleep well.

"It rained heavily last night, and I didn't sleep well." PHS nodded.

In fact, it was not as simple as sleeping peacefully, the heavy rain directly fell into Chu Qiao's heart.

The muddle-headed day was over, and Chu Qiao didn't know how she got here.When she got off work in the evening, Chu Qiao took a look at her phone, only to find that a text message had come in.

It was from Mo Zhengyan, telling her that she had a party tonight.

Chu Qiao stared at the phone for a while, she remained silent and didn't reply, she just exited the mailbox and dialed Tao Sitian's number.

After connecting, Chu Qiao called out, "Sitian, are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together."

On the other side, Tao Sitian was complaining bitterly, only saying that she had been working overtime for several days, she was so tired that she was about to collapse, and she was eating now, but it was just a fast food box lunch.As a result, the plan to invite was over, and they could only meet again another day, Chu Qiao hung up.

Walking out of the company with a satchel in hand, pedestrians kept passing by in a hurry.Chu Qiao walked to the bus stop alone, she was always at a loss.When we got to the platform, one group of people got on the train, and another group got off the train. There was a constant flow of traffic coming and going.Chu Qiao didn't move at all, and she didn't know how many buses passed by before her eyes, let alone whether she missed the one that belonged to her.

Just suddenly, I don't want to go back.

Chu Qiao didn't want to go back to the place where she temporarily lived.

She didn't want to go back there, didn't want to see Mo Zhengyan, and didn't know what expression to use and what words to say when she saw him.

Perhaps, not seeing each other for a while is the best choice.

At least, for Chu Qiao it is.

Chu Qiao frowned, and saw a bus approaching, she didn't care about it, and didn't want to know where she was going, so she just got on the bus.

A destination without an end may be the best journey.

Chu Qiao took the bus, and after a few stops, she got off at a stop she knew.She went to find a fast hotel nearby to check in, after completing the formalities, Chu Qiao entered the room, she lay down on the bed, the feeling of exhaustion hit her whole body, she closed her eyes, and fell asleep immediately.

When she fell into a daze, she was woken up by a phone call, Chu Qiao glanced drowsily, it was Mo Zhengyan's call.

She lay down with her eyes downcast, just pressed the hang up button, or directly turned off the phone, and then went back to sleep.

"Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off, please try again later..." A mechanical automatic female voice replied from the other end of the phone, which made Mo Zhengyan frowned.

Mo Zhengyan was very busy this day. After leaving Song Yingzi's place early in the morning, there were constant meetings, negotiations, and socializing with clients, and he didn't come back until eleven o'clock in the evening.But what he didn't expect was that when he came back, he saw an empty apartment.No lights, no people, no breath of any kind.Mo Zhengyan was startled, he immediately turned on the light and searched the entire apartment, but he didn't see Chu Qiao.

At first, he thought that Chu Qiao was working overtime, so he called her.

Then got hung up.

Mo Zhengyan was suspicious and dialed again.But who knew, the phone on the other end had already been turned off, which surprised Mo Zhengyan.

Mo Zhengyan didn't believe it, so he dialed again.

And the answer to him was only that sentence, "I'm sorry, the user you dialed has turned off the phone, please call again later..."

Mo Zhengyan was anxious and wanted to find her, but where to find her.His first reaction was to think of Tao Sitian, maybe if he contacted her, he would know Chu Qiao's whereabouts.Mo Zhengyan called Tao Sitian, but Tao Sitian said that she was working overtime, but when she got off work today, Chu Qiao contacted her and asked her if she wanted to have dinner together.But because of overtime work, Tao Sitian was not free.

Mo Zhengyan paused in his heart, "If she contacts you, please tell me."

Tao Sitian was confused, "Mo Zhengyan, what happened to you and Chu Qiao?"

Mo Zhengyan was a little dazed, "I don't know either."

"She is gone." Mo Zhengyan thought for a while, but he could only come up with this result.It should be counted as gone, but all of a sudden, it disappeared from his eyes and cut off contact with him.

Tao Sitian was surprised, "Huh? Chu Qiao disappeared? Why did Chu Qiao disappear? Did you guys quarrel again?"

quarrel?

Obviously not.

cold war?

Obviously not.

Mo Zhengyan was a little confused, he didn't want to talk too much, but just reminded her, if there is news about Chu Qiao, then contact her immediately.

Tao Sitian couldn't find out why, so she had no choice but to let it go, reassuring him that Chu Qiao would be fine, reassuring him, and agreed to contact him if there was any news.

After hanging up the phone, Mo Zhengyan still couldn't make up his mind, so he rushed out immediately and drove the car around on the road.

Maybe, maybe, like when I was in Bincheng, I met her by chance.

But this time, Mo Zhengyan walked around the city for two or three hours, but he didn't see her.

I didn't see Chu Qiao again.

In the end, Mo Zhengyan had no choice but to return to the apartment.

That night, the insomniac was replaced by Mo Zhengyan.

He didn't sleep all night, sat on the sofa in the living room, and smoked cigarettes all night.

◎◎◎

The next morning, before dawn, Mo Zhengyan drove to the vicinity of the company where Chu Qiao worked.He drove the car to the road opposite the company, smoking a cigarette and looking around.Maybe, after a while, he will be able to see Chu Qiao.However, Mo Zhengyan sat in the car from before five o'clock until nine o'clock, but he didn't see Chu Qiao.

Among the chaotic crowd, Mo Zhengyan kept watching and observing everyone who entered the building.

Mo Zhengyan couldn't be more familiar with Chu Qiao's figure, he can recognize it with just one glance.

But at this moment, he did not find Chu Qiao.

It was as if he had lost her.

Mo Zhengyan was in such a hurry.

Nine o'clock is the company's punctual working time. Mo Zhengyan took out his mobile phone and called Chu Qiao's company.

It was a man who answered the phone.

Mo Zhengyan asked, "Has Chu Qiao come to work?"

"Chu Qiao? Not yet."

Mo Zhengyan didn't say much, and hung up the phone.No, he hadn't seen her.He didn't want to leave and continued to wait.Another hour later, the secretary also called to ask Mo Zhengyan for instructions, "Mr. Mo, there is a meeting at ten o'clock in the morning."

"The meeting is postponed, and today's schedule is all postponed!" Mo Zhengyan said, and hung up.

Another cigarette was exhausted, and Mo Zhengyan became anxious. He called Chu Qiao's company again.

But this time, the answer was, "Chu Qiao? She just called to ask for leave and said she was not feeling well."

Mo Zhengyan's heart tightened, and before he had time to say anything, he hung up and dialed Chu Qiao's number.While waiting to find her, Mo Zhengyan kept calling her number, but the phone was always turned off.When did she turn on the phone again, why didn't she contact him, why didn't she reply to him.Didn't she see his phone number and his message?

But at this moment, after the panic, the only thing I can be sure of is that nothing happened to her!

She called the company to ask for leave!

To Mo Zhengyan's surprise, Chu Qiao's phone finally turned on, and it was no longer the female voice prompting the system, but the voice waiting for the connection!

Mo Zhengyan's heart tightened, and he desperately hoped that she would answer the phone quickly.

However, the phone was hung up again!

Then, a message came in.

It was sent by Chu Qiao, just over ten words - I want to calm down for two days, I will contact you again, don't look for me.

Mo Zhengyan's eyes narrowed, and he dialed again. Chu Qiao's number was already turned off again.

……

In the hotel room, Chu Qiao watched the screen turn black, and she put the phone aside.When she woke up in the morning, she still felt very tired and didn't want to go to the company or anywhere.Chu Qiao knew that if she went to work in the company as usual, then Mo Zhengyan would probably be waiting near the company.But she still didn't want to see him, at least not yet.She hasn't cleared her thoughts yet, and she hasn't figured out how to face it.

In a hurry, Chu Qiao thought about calling the company to ask for leave.Of course, she also saw countless missed calls and text messages.There are Tao Sitian, and more Mo Zhengyan.Chu Qiao first called Tao Sitian back and told her she was fine.Tao Sitian asked what happened, but Chu Qiao didn't want to say more.Tao Sitian was silent, Chu Qiao didn't want to say anything, so she didn't continue to ask, but just reminded, "You should go back to Mo Zhengyan, he is very anxious, he called me early in the morning to ask me."

Chu Qiao said "En", and not long after hanging up, Mo Zhengyan's call came in.

That beating name seemed to disturb Chu Qiao's heart.

She hesitated for a while, but still refused to answer.

Only one message was sent.

Chu Qiao felt that she needed time to calm down and sort out all this.
