Chapter 92 Is It Okay?
Chapter 92 Is It Okay?
The sunrise time in St. Petersburg at the end of December is very late, and the sun can often be seen only at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and after nine o'clock in the evening, the sunset will rush down again, and the daytime is very short.
When Gong Shichen first arrived, he was exhausted and jet-lagged for a whole day, and he was very uncomfortable with the sunrise and sunset times, but by the afternoon of the 30th, he had completely returned to normal, and even lay down on the window sill leisurely. Together with Yunsi, I watched the pigeons flying past the window with great interest.
Mu Qing was quite happy to see that he had adapted to the environment so quickly, but when the door of his room was knocked suddenly at six o'clock in the morning on the 31st, the joy stopped abruptly.
He struggled to open his eyes, pulled himself out of the bed with difficulty, stepped on fluffy slippers and walked over to open the door, and then he was almost blinded by the bright daylight in the living room.
The culprit who disturbed his sleep stood against the light, with a worried face: "Old Mu, I see that the weather forecast in St. Petersburg today will have heavy snow. Will the museum we are going to go to this afternoon not be open?"
Mu Qing closed his eyes, put his hand on his aching forehead, resisted the urge to open the balcony door and throw Gong Shichen out: "No. If the museum is closed, it will be reminded one day in advance. If there is no reminder last night, it will be opened normally. Museum, let’s just go there in the afternoon.”
"That's good." Gong Shichen breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again, "Then after we go to the museum——"
Mu Qing interrupted what Gong Shichen had obviously made up on the spur of the moment, and asked him directly: "What's wrong with you?"
Gong Shichen was quiet for two seconds, then suddenly looked away: "Actually, that's the one, I just got a piece of news, Liu Yan told me, he said...he said... …”
Mu Qing frowned when he heard this name: "Liu Yan? What can he say to you?"
"that is........"
Gong Shichen hesitated for a while, and then began implicitly: "Then what, didn't the stupid things Liu Yan did this summer make a big fuss? Not only between you two, there are many people on Yu Yifeng's side He wanted to find something to do with him. At that time, he was afraid of revenge and left Chaohai quickly, but recently he went back after the rumors died down. After returning, he originally wanted to go to Yu Yifeng to apologize, but when he went to find someone, Yu Yifeng just left Chaohai."
Mu Qing said calmly: "So?"
Gong Shichen looked at Mu Qing, and gritted his teeth to tell the whole story: "Liu Yan said that he found out that Yu Yifeng bought a cross-border flight, and it seems that he came to see you."
After the news was finished, he looked at Mu Qing anxiously, but Mu Qing's expression did not change: "What else did he say?"
"He only said this, let me tell you to be careful, there is nothing else." Gong Shichen looked at Mu Qing worriedly, "If—I mean, if Yu Yifeng really came to harass you, What are you going to do then?"
Mu Qing was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his tone was somewhat cold: "Even if Yu Yifeng really came here, it has nothing to do with Liu Yan."
Gong Shichen was taken aback by his sudden indifference, but then immediately reacted: "You mean—"
Mu Qing looked at Gong Shichen, and said calmly: "Only you and my mother know about my coming to St. Petersburg. Even the school's website has not been announced. Many teachers in the same department don't know where I went. Why does he, Liu Yan, know?" ? He can’t go through all the Russian school announcement websites with his bare hands, right?”
Gong Shichen frowned following his words: "Liu Yan likes to speculate, and it is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing. He probably still has thoughts about you, so he secretly checked when he returned to Chaohai. I found out your whereabouts, but I didn’t dare to come and chase after you. Later, I happened to find out about Yu Yifeng’s movements and wanted to sell you out through my mouth, and he even stomped on Yu Yifeng by the way—he’s really scheming!"
"In the past when he told me about Yu Yifeng, I could barely count him as kind; but now he is doing this just to disgust me." Mu Qing's tone was cold, and even his expression turned cold, "But it's just An ignorant second-generation ancestor who still wants to make trouble with me, how can you give him face?"
Gong Shichen was used as a pawn without knowing it, and he was in a bad mood: "Did you really treat us like melons? Dare to get on my head, Lao Mu will arrest you He is dozing off, it doesn’t matter if you poke him or not, let me take care of him!”
After he finished speaking, he returned to the room with a serious expression and concentrated on dealing with things.
Mu Qing turned off the headlight in the living room, looked at the dim night light for a while, but did not return to the bedroom, but turned around and went to the kitchen, making himself a cup of hot cocoa.
The sweet warmth entered his throat, diluting the vague irritability in his heart, and allowing him to capture his thoughts very clearly.
When he heard Gong Shichen relay Liu Yan's words just now, the first thing that arose in his heart was not the resistance to Yu Yifeng, but the anger at Liu Yan's gossip.
Even though it is impossible for him and Yu Yifeng now, when someone wants to take the opportunity to slander Yu Yifeng, he is still unwilling to listen subconsciously.This may not be what a rational person should do, but it is the most straightforward proof that he loved this person.
Mu Qing sat on the sofa in the living room with hot cocoa for a while, looked at the street light pole faintly coming from the window, and heard the rhythmic breathing of Yunsi in the cat's nest not far away, suddenly wanted to take a look Cityscape at night.
Thinking in his heart, he wrapped his pajamas tightly, took another thick coat and put it on, then opened the balcony door and walked out.
Because of the cold all year round, most of the balconies in St. Petersburg have sealed windows, but even so, the temperature on the balconies is still much lower than indoors.Even though Mu Qing wore enough thick clothes, the coolness of the balcony still made Mu Qing shiver.
He simply stretched out his hand and opened the window of the balcony, allowing the cold wind to pour in, completely dispelling the last remaining drowsiness.
The hot drink in his hand was the only source of heat, Mu Qing held the cup with both hands, leaned against the thick edge of the window, and quietly looked at the still-awakened city in front of him.
He didn't wear glasses, so all the lights and tall buildings looked hazy, only the river not far away vaguely refracted the lights and moonlight.
It doesn't feel the same as when I wear glasses, but it's not the same.
Mu Qing took a sip of the warmed hot drink, and was about to pull back when his eyes suddenly caught a glare of light.He followed the light subconsciously and looked around. Amidst the roar of the engine, he saw an unknown color cube galloping from the other side of the bridge, and stopped at the intersection again.
A moment later, a vague black dot came down from the illuminated colored square, and a moment later, the wheels of the suitcase were rumbling on the ground.
Perhaps due to the influence of Gong Shichen and Yunsi, or perhaps for some other reason, Mu Qing didn't immediately walk back into the room with the cup in his hand, but put the cup beside him casually.He stayed by the window sill and watched the black shadow get closer and closer, and even guessed his identity with great interest in his heart:
In such a hurry, it doesn't look like a tourist here for the New Year's Eve. Could it be a local who came back from another place and is going to celebrate the New Year with his family?still......
Messy thoughts were swirling in his mind, and he subconsciously wanted to lean out to take a look, but the cup placed by the window was taken by his arm, and he flipped it out along the wide open window.
"Oops!"
"Bang!" The mug fell into the snowdrift with a dull sound, and the person who had just passed under his window sill stopped and looked up.
Although Mu Qing's house was only on the third floor, he didn't wear glasses, and it was dark now. With his eyesight that could not distinguish between humans and animals five meters away, it was really difficult to see the other person's expression clearly.Mu Qing looked at the people downstairs and yelled softly: "Sorry bro, I accidentally dropped the cup, did I scare you?"
The people downstairs still looked up at him and didn't answer.
Seeing that the other party still didn't move, Mu Qing added another sentence after thinking about it: "I'm very sorry, please wait for me!"
He casually grabbed two bags of candy from the cabinet in the living room, and hurried downstairs.
The person who was startled by him just now was still holding the suitcase and standing there, Mu Qing rushed to the person's side: "I'm very sorry, I accidentally—"
Before Mu Qing finished speaking, the other party suddenly grabbed his arm and hugged him into his arms with unquestionable strength.
The cold embrace completely surrounded Mu Qing, and the familiar aroma of woody amber lingered in his nose.
The man holding Mu Qing moved closer to the ear of the person in his arms, and begged in a low voice: "Can you not push me away?"
He confided in a low voice: "I'm sorry, but I really miss you."
