love out of time

Chapter 33

After eating, Jiang Ci piled the bowls in the sink, intending to send Liang Jingxing out.

"It's raining outside, so don't send it off."

Jiang Ci looked down, "Are your pants dry?"

Liang Jingxing picked up the umbrella standing aside, "It's all right, it's almost done."

Jiang Ci sent him to the door, "There is no light in the corridor, go downstairs and be careful." After a pause, he lowered his gaze, and then said, "Thank you."

Liang Jingxing smiled, "Go to bed early, go in and lock the door."

Watching Liang Jingxing's figure disappear at the bend of the stairs, Jiang Cifang closed the door and locked it, and stood still for a while, then she walked to the window, pushed open the glass window, and looked down.

The cold rain hit Xiaoxiao's face, the lights near and far were blurred, and the sound of cars passing by the road could be heard far away in the dark night.After waiting for a while, Liang Jingxing's figure appeared at the entrance of the alley. He did not hold an umbrella and lit a cigarette.

Just when Jiang Ci was about to close the window, Liang Jingxing suddenly stopped and took out his cell phone from his pocket.

Jiang Ci's movements followed suit.

Far away, there is only a little glimmer of light from the phone screen, which is hard to see clearly.I only know that the phone call is very short, it seems to be less than 1 minute.

However, Liang Jingxing hung up the phone, but stood in the rain for a long time without moving.A pitch-black figure seemed to have melted into the night, and seemed a little lonely for no reason.

Jiang Ci supported the window lattice with his fingers, and forgot to move. After watching for an unknown amount of time, Liang Jingxing finally took another step, still drenched in the rain.He held the umbrella in his hand like a crutch.

Long after Liang Jingxing disappeared, Jiang Cifang slowly closed the window.The rain condensed on the eyebrows, she blinked, and the water droplets rolled down.

Liang Jingxing returned to the car and sat in the quiet and dim driver's seat, not moving for a long time, like a frozen statue.The unreal phone call just now and the brief busy tone after that were still echoing in his ears.

Liang Jingxing did not expect to receive a call from Ye Li again after so many years.

With the gurgling of the rain, her voice also showed a somewhat damp quality. It was dull and slow, and it was no longer as clear as before, but her tone was relaxed, and every word and every sentence seemed to be with a smile, "... I should tell you myself, lest you come from other places. Hearing that, I think I am so terribly ill now." She paused, her voice became even lower for a while, "...Jing Xing, so you still use the old number."

Liang Jingxing was startled, and was about to speak, when someone called Ye Li's name at the other end, she answered, and said with a smile to Liang Jingxing, "I'm going to have an examination, let's talk back."

Naturally, there is no "talking later".

A few days later, Liang Jingxing saw a report about Ye Li's serious illness in the scrolling news on the university's official website.

He is still hesitating, one is not sure how sick Ye Li is and how much time is left; the other is that the company and the school have a lot of business, and the delivery is troublesome.

Two weeks passed in a flash.

During this period, Jiang Ci found time to find Chen Juefei at the door of his classroom.When he came out of class, he threw a bottle of Coke in his hand.Chen Juefei was caught off guard and almost missed the catch. After standing still, he stared at Jiang Ci as if he saw a monster.

Jiang Ci's expression was flat, "I was wrong last time, I shouldn't get angry at you."

Chen Juefei was dumbfounded, suspecting that he had heard it wrong, "You...are you okay, tell me again?"

Jiang Ci glanced at him coldly.

Chen Juefei laughed, stepped forward and hooked her shoulder, "Jiang Ci, Jiang Ci, you also have today!"

Jiang Ci gave him an elbow in disgust, Chen Juefei covered his stomach and backed away, with a bright smile on his face, "Since you apologized sincerely, I will forgive you mercifully..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Ci pushed away the crowd, turned and left.
