C18 Where Are You

"I'm hot, so can we go back?" Qiao Ye said seriously, fanning himself as if he had something important to do.

Jian Mo knew that Qiao Ye was doing this for her sake, so she couldn't push him away anymore. She pushed him back to the hospital. Perhaps it was because of the sun, but Qiao Ye's complexion had improved a lot. It was no longer that sickly pale color, and there was a hint of red in his cheeks. Perhaps it was because of the sun.

A doctor in a white coat was in the room when they came in. "I came to see your situation. I just found that you are not here. It turns out that you went out. It is not bad to be able to go out for a walk now." The doctor began to talk to himself.

When the doctor left, Qiao Ye blushed, and Jian Mo lowered her head in embarrassment. It was as if they were supposed to be boyfriend and girlfriend.

"Cough, cough." She coughed awkwardly, "Let me help you back."

"All right." An invisible awkwardness helped Qiao Ye to get back on the patient, and the ward became quiet again. The two of them were so embarrassed that they forgot to look at each other. Jian Mo bit her lips, not knowing what to say.

"Xiao Mo, is there anything you want to do in the future?" It was Qiao Ye who spoke first, breaking the silence. His eyes met hers, and there was a bottomless ink in his clear eyes.

She shook her head. She was really confused about her future.

"I remember when we first met, you said you liked to dance a lot? Didn't you think about the future? "Qiao Ye mentioned the time when they first met. At that time, they had nothing to say to each other and had no secrets from each other.

Suddenly, she brought up the past. When it came to dancing, Jian Mo's bright eyes instantly dimmed, and her heart throbbed in pain. Yes, how much she had loved dancing in the past, but what was the use of liking it? A few thousand yuan of tuition couldn't be compared to her brother's tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars of entertainment expenses. "I have not learned how to dance anymore. After you left the country, my family felt that it was too expensive to learn how to dance, so they stopped learning."

Seeing Jian Mo's disappointment, Qiao Ye was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect such a thing to happen, so he continued to speak softly. "It's all right. You still have the basics, and if you work hard enough, you'll be back to the way you used to be. Remember watching your dance videos."

Looking into Qiao Ye's eyes, there was not the slightest hint of a joke in them. Instead, they were filled with sincerity. "Can I?" Her voice trembled slightly. She was not very confident in herself, and she did not have much confidence either. After so many years, could she really dance again?

"Yes, as long as you can practice again, I can help you. Besides, Xiao Mo can dance so well. If you don't dance, you will be buried."

"Really?"

"Really."

... ""

Qiao Ye had been telling her about the future for almost the entire afternoon. To Jian Mo, what Qiao Ye had said was a completely new world, and his words seemed to have opened a door to a new world for her.

They talked for a long time, until the sky had completely darkened. Jian Mo wanted to continue, but remembering Yang Zhexu's words, she wanted to go back. Her body, which had been sitting for a long time, stiffened slightly. "I'm going back."

Qiao Ye turned his head to look at the sky outside. "Judging from the sky, it seems like it's going to rain. Xiao Mo, why don't you stay in the hospital for the night? It might not be convenient for you to go back now."

"My family will be worried about me. Qiao Ye, I'll cook something delicious for you tomorrow." Jian Mo refused. If she had been any later and was discovered by Yang Zhexu, she would have been fine, but she was afraid that she would have implicated Qiao Ye.

After thinking for a while, Qiao Ye thought that it was true. With a girl outside, his family would not be at ease, "Then be careful."

"Yes, rest early. I'll be leaving first." Jian Mo waved her hand and walked out of the ward.

The summer weather was like a woman's face, changing at will. There was no reason to say anything.

It was about five o'clock. The sky was dark. Normally, it wouldn't be dark until eight o'clock in the summer.

Suddenly. The thunder rumbled and the lightning fell down like dancing. The sky looked like it was cracked. After a while, the sky became dark. There was only a sea of black in front of them. The wind was blowing and making sounds.

The wind whistled and the thunder rumbled. Lightning split the sky above her head, lighting up almost half of the city. Jian Mo quickly closed her eyes as the sand blew against her face. It was already dark, and there were no taxis on the street.

As soon as she reached the hospital gatekeeper's side, bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the ground with a crackling sound. Jian Mo felt a headache coming on. How was she going to get back now? She was originally wearing a short-sleeved shirt, but she felt a trace of coldness. Her eyes were filled with anxiety. If she couldn't stop a taxi today, she wouldn't be able to go back.

She knew Yang Zhexu's temper very well. If she didn't go home before he did, she would probably suffer again.

However, the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, and the cars were intersecting with each other, showing no intention of stopping.

The phone in her pocket vibrated twice, and Jian Mo's heart also trembled twice with the vibration of the phone. She took out her phone. It was Yang Zhexu, and she had no right to refuse. As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard a low sound. "Little thing, where are you now?"

The sound was muffled by the sound of the rain hitting the ground and the thunder, but Jian Mo could hear it clearly. The rain was getting heavier and heavier outside, and she was trapped in the security room. Only the slight protrusion of the eaves could shelter her from the rain. She put her hand on her phone to block out the sound outside as she spoke. "I'm in the hospital now. It's raining and there's thunder and there's no taxi in the street, so I'll be late." She spoke very loudly, afraid that Yang Zhexu wouldn't be able to hear her.

Before she could finish her sentence, a clap of thunder sounded from the horizon, startling Jian Mo. She gripped her phone tightly, and her voice trembled slightly. "Wait a moment."

Sitting at home, she listened to the trembling voice on the other side of the phone and looked outside. Dark clouds gathered and lightning flashed. She took a deep breath and asked after a while, "Which hospital are you in?"

As he said this, another bolt of lightning fell from the sky. Jian Mo had tried her best to listen again, but because of the thunder, she still did not understand Yang Zhexu's words. "Huh? What are you asking me again?" At this moment, because of the thunder, she didn't want to be afraid of Yang Zhexu anymore.
