How much love has become a cloud of smoke

Chapter 7 The Death of Boren (2)
Then I saw Chen Jiayan walking over and squeezed into the crowd, and immediately there was a burst of cheers (I think it should be cheers) from the crowd.Then I squeezed in too, and saw Chen Jiayan holding Gao Tianming who was drunk with one hand, and pushing the foreigner who sweared at me just now to the ground with the other, mumbled something, and then pulled Gao Tianming, And me, leaving the bar.He stuffed Gao Tianming into the back seat of his car, and Mr. Gao, who was already unconscious, fell headfirst on the back seat, murmuring without knowing what he was talking about.I sat in the passenger seat and looked at Gao Tianming uneasily. Chen Jiayan started the car, glanced at me and said, "What's wrong? Are you worried about him?"

"I'm worried if he'll throw up." Chen Jiayan felt amused. Seeing that he was so calm, I didn't panic. Anyway, this is not my car. "By the way, why are you here?"

"It happened to be in the bar next door."

"So coincidental?"

"It's a habit to come here with friends after get off work."

That's right, it's often played like this on TV. Rich and senior white-collar workers come to this kind of place after work to "sit and sit". This is a place full of romantic encounters and TV scriptwriters.

"Then where are we going now?" Actually, shouldn't we go directly to Gao's house? The destination is so clear, why do I still ask this question?Could it be that I can't help feeling that every time I'm with Chen Jiayan, I'm dating?Dating?God, how could I have this illusion, there is obviously a drunken second generation ancestor in our car.

What's worse, Chen Jiayan actually looked at me and said, "How about going to the top of the mountain?" I think I was probably stunned by his last "How about you?" mountain top.There are many mountains in Hong Kong City. The poor live in Lion Mountain, the rich live in Taiping Mountain, and Moth Mountain...

In fact, this city is just a small city trapped in these mountains, but it is studded with all kinds of precious and bright gemstones, making it dazzling like a queen's finery at night.

We stood by the fence on the top of the mountain, and the mountain wind blew in my face, straightening out my hair.I couldn't help but look back at Gao Tianming in the car, he was in a deep sleep, luckily he didn't vomit.

"Are you worried about him?" Chen Jiayan looked at me. "I'm worried about your car." I said it again, and it was true.Such a beautiful silver Bentley sports car, what a pity to be vomited dirty, even though he is Chen Jiayan, I know he has enough money to buy a better new car without going to the car wash, but it is really a pity.

That car may not be enough to cover my annual salary. "Don't worry, he's a good drinker and won't vomit."

"How do you know?" Chen Jiayan smiled: "Do you think who will pick up the mess for him every time he gets drunk?"

"You!" I was overjoyed, it turned out that the barrister did the same thing as me, and I suddenly felt that my job was not so humble.

He slightly bent the corners of his mouth, leaned his back on the railing and looked up at the sky.Perhaps because of standing on the top of the mountain, the stars in the sky suddenly became bigger and brighter. "It's so beautiful..." I said with my neck up. "Actually, I can't see any stars now." He said, "When I was young, I could see the sky full of stars every time I looked up. When I grow up, there are fewer and fewer stars... Sometimes you can’t even see one.”

I think there is a deep meaning in these words, but I still can't understand them.The Chen Jiayan at this moment is a little different from the Chen Jiayan I usually see in court and in the office, but I can’t tell exactly what is different. He seems to have suddenly become the same Chen Jiayan who was dazed and silent in the apartment that night. Melancholy yet kind.

Yes, at this time, he changed from a god to a man all of a sudden.Of course, gods can have no emotions, but human beings are another matter.I asked him in a low voice: "Lawyer Chen, are you unhappy?" He turned his head to look at me, his eyes were brighter and more dazzling than the stars. "Chen Xiaoying committed suicide." Seeing me in a daze, he added, "Gao Tianming's 'girlfriend'." I felt someone hit me hard on the back of the head.Chen Xiaoying, 20 years old, the "girlfriend" who sat next to Gao Tianming when the car accident happened that day, a third-year student at the University of Science and Technology... My eardrums buzzed, and my eyes suddenly went dark, and all the stars disappeared. All I saw was a chaotic darkness.

"It was discovered this morning. She died in prison. She broke her toothbrush and cut her artery." Chen Jiayan's voice was very flat and steady.In such a quiet and cold night, it was like a cold stream flowing through my heart and blood vessels bit by bit, flowing all over my body, and I felt cold.He looked back at Gao Tianming, who was drunk on the back seat of the car: "Probably I shouldn't have told him." Chen Jiayan stood side by side, so close, with the mountain breeze blowing, looking at the drunk second generation ancestor in the silver Bentley.

Actually, shouldn't we say something more romantic, or, do something more romantic?But now my mind is full of Chen Xiaoying whose name and face don't match.Why did she commit suicide?Did she commit suicide?Or was "murdered"?Could Gao Tianming... also feel guilty?
So, what about Chen Jiayan?Does he also feel a little sad? "Lawyer Chen, what's wrong with you..." I took a breath before continuing, "You can tell me."

He smiled slightly, looked down the mountain with folded arms, and said, "I thought I had handled it well enough, but I didn't expect that I would still cost a life."

You have really done a good job.I said silently in my heart. "Probably I believed in myself too much. I didn't expect Chen Xiaoying to be so decisive and say something that shouldn't be said. If I knew this, I would rather send Gao Tianming to jail. I overestimated my judgment." He used self-deprecating words Said in a tone, "I really think that I am a god."

You really are God.What I wanted to say in my heart was surging, but I finally held back. "But I think you have done well enough." I looked at Chen Jiayan and said, "At least Miss Xue has been properly settled now. Actually, you are right, sometimes we just think about how to punish criminals, But they neglected to protect the victims. Now at least Ms. Xue’s medical expenses are settled, and I hope she can recover one day.”

Chen Jiayan smiled at me and said, "Are you comforting me?" Isn't that obvious.I spread my hands. "Have you walked past that?" Chen Jiayan suddenly raised his finger and pointed to a bench that looked like a balance beam in the pavilion not far away. "When I was young, I didn't have any fun. I liked walking on this kind of stool. When I reached the end, I would suddenly worry about falling. At that time, my father would reach out to catch me. Have you ever played?"

"I've played it." I jumped up and swayed around twice to show that it was not difficult.Chen Jiayan followed and said, "Close your eyes."

"what?"

"If I say, close your eyes and walk, I will reach out to catch you when you fall, do you dare to try?"

He stretched out his hand to me, and I was stunned for a moment. Judging from this height, I shouldn't fall to pieces.Since this barrister is in a bad mood at the moment, it doesn't matter if I play with him. At any rate, he has saved me from fire and water several times, and I have to repay the favor of a drop of water.

I secretly made up my mind and boarded the bench and closed my eyes. He said one step forward, I took one step forward, he said turn left, I then turned left, he said three steps, I took three steps.In fact, I have never played this kind of game, because when I was young, the children didn't like to play with me. I always hid in the corner and watched them play.

Suddenly, my feet were empty, my heart tightened, and then I fell into Chen Jiayan's arms.He lowered his arms a little, hugged me, and put me firmly on the ground.I checked that there were no missing arms or broken legs, and I was secretly glad that my judgment was really accurate, but I didn't expect Chen Jiayan to hug me suddenly.I was caught off guard and fell into his arms, what... what's going on?
"Chen, Lawyer Chen," I patted him on the back and said, "Are you okay?"

"Thank you." He said softly, "Believe in me." Actually, at that time, I didn't know why I chose to trust Chen Jiayan.Many, many years later, when I thought about it, I realized that I fell in love with him early on. At that time, I was only thinking about making him happy, and I didn't even consider my own comfort.I'm not stupid, I'm just stupid.

Vol.3
The next day I didn't see Gao Tianming's movement until 02:30 in the afternoon. Sister Rong asked me if it was okay, and I couldn't tell, so I ran upstairs to see the second generation ancestor at the risk of my life.When he came back last night, Chen Jiayan carried him upstairs and threw him on the bed. As for what happened afterwards, I don't know, I only know that Chen Jiayan drank a cup of coffee and left.

At that time, I was very worried about Chen Jiayan, and my mind was full of Chen Jiayan.I chased him all the way to the yard, saw him open the car door and got into the car, and hurriedly shouted: "Lawyer Chen..."

He looked back at me, but I said, "Are you okay?" After watching too many TV dramas, I would spit out such non-technical dialogue.He smiled at me and said: "If you leave Gao's house alive, I will treat you to dinner." This proposal is very suitable for me, I nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay." Now I ran upstairs and saw the door It was slightly open, so I pushed it carefully, but a pillow flew over and nearly threw me out through the crack of the door. "Who let you in!" Gao Tianming roared angrily, so scared that I stood at the door and hugged the pillow for a long time without moving.Wherever I come in, I'm still just standing at the door.

Gao Tianming sat on the bed, propped his head with one hand, and grabbed the quilt with the other. The silk-like quilt half covered his body. He, he, when did he take off his clothes... I hurriedly turned around, He stammered, "Mr. Xiao Gao, that Sister Rong asked me to see if you're up."

But he just scratched his hair and said: "My head hurts." Nonsense, a person who drank two dozen beers and hungover until dawn without a headache is a wine master.I quietly turned my face to look at him and said, "Then let Sister Rong make you a cup of ginseng tea, okay?" I saw him nodding his head.So I did so, and a few minutes later I came up with a cup, only to see Gao Tianming lying on his back on the bed in a big shape, with the quilt casually draped over his body.I called him several times and he refused to answer me. Only then did I realize that he was a little abnormal. I walked over and raised my hand to touch his forehead. As expected, it was the temperature of fried eggs in a frying pan.

It's over, the young master has a fever.He tossed and turned on the bed for a long time, and suddenly said: "I'm cold." I hurried downstairs to ask Sister Rong what to do, and Sister Rong said very calmly: "Call Dr. Chen." Looking for a family doctor?I don't think so.Rich people who catch a cold have to go through all kinds of quarantines like pandas entering the zoo.I said, it's just a fever, can't I find a thermometer to measure it?Sister Rong said no, and added that the young master had to be seen by Dr. Chen every time he got sick since he was a child.

Then I had no choice but to ask her to call Dr. Chen, and I sat by the bed and watched over Gao Tianming.He was cold and hot for a while, and his hair was wet with sweat in a few minutes, but he shivered under the quilt.

While I wiped his sweat with a towel, I applied ice cubes to his forehead. He tossed and turned on the bed for a long time, shouting words that I couldn't understand.After finally waiting for Dr. Chen to arrive, he turned out to be a professional family doctor with all kinds of equipment, auscultation, temperature measurement, and pulse measurement. After a complete set of tests, Dr. Chen said it was all right, it was just a cold.

Is the level of this doctor really credible?It looks similar to me, and I can tell it's a cold.

Dr. Chen prescribed the medicine, and then Sister Rong went downstairs with him, and I still covered Gao Tianming with the quilt, only then did I hear him call "Mom".After all, he is just a boy in his early twenties, and when he is sick, he misses his mother most.I saw his eyebrows twisted in pain, and couldn't help but sighed softly.

No matter how willful, tricky or inhuman, he is just a patient now.I'm not going to take revenge on him at this time, let alone he is my boss and I rely on him for my salary.I could only stay by his bedside all night, wipe his sweat and change towels, give him medicine as the doctor ordered, and stay by his side.

When I was young, I used to take care of the children who lived with me like this. Although they were very unkind to me, I learned a good skill in taking care of others.Because of my meticulous care and care when I was sick, Ai Ai's attitude towards me has changed a lot.Therefore, if you master a skill, you will not be afraid to travel all over the world.

After tossing like this until the evening, he finally calmed down, and I was so tired that I fell asleep at some point.

But when he woke up, the person on the bed was gone.I panicked, it was midnight.I ran to the balcony and looked into the yard, but I couldn't see anyone anywhere.When I went downstairs to the living room, there was no one there. I was so anxious that I was like an ant on a hot pot. If Gao Tianming was taken away by aliens like this, I would probably have to go to an alien planet to find him.

The most frightening thing is that this little young master will not run out to spend time and drink to make trouble while the fever subsides.

It wasn't until I saw his red sports car lying quietly in the garage that I was sure he hadn't gone out.Then I saw him by the pool.
