There, last winter, your little note lured me into an adult massage parlor.

When it comes to illness, Zhou Yi is far more dedicated than eating and sleeping.

In just one and a half months of winter, she has caught cold three times.

One round of procrastination lasted for seven or eight days, leaving only a period of adaptation in the middle before entering the next time with great fanfare.

No, it didn't take long for the last time, and her nose was stuffy again.

She just couldn't figure it out, how could Xiangzi catch a cold after stuttering steamed stuffed buns?

Could it be that the weaker sister Lin is actually stronger than her?

Zhou Yi was exhausted physically and mentally.

Seeing Zhou Yi passing by, Grandma Miao from the bun shop called her enthusiastically, "Xiao Jiu, today are some buns stuffed with pork and cabbage, would you like two?"

Zhou Yi shook his head listlessly, "If you don't eat, it won't taste good in your mouth."

Grandma Miao heard that Zhou Yi's voice was wrong, and asked with concern: "It's only been a few days, why are you so misbehaved?"

Zhou Yi didn't have time to speak, his nose was sore, and tears burst out uncontrollably.

Seeing her distressed, Grandma Miao swiftly picked up a few hot buns and hung them on Zhou Yi's wrists, then pulled up the hood of her down jacket and said, "The medicine is ready? Then go home quickly, and sit next to the heater."

Zhou Yi nodded bitterly, pulled himself together and walked back.

The snowy winter is suffocating, and the wind blows on the face like a knife.

Zhou Yi walked backwards for a few unsteady steps, lowered his head, bit the zipper of the down jacket and pulled it to the end, then rubbed the edge with his chin, and buried most of his face in it.

Both hands were unambiguous, and they were firmly in the pockets, with a medicine bag on one wrist and a steamed bun on the other, swaying back and forth like patrolling the street.

Going back to the east, you have to walk up some steps. The snow on the top is very slippery after being trampled and polished, and you have to trip a few times every day.

Zhou Yi was afraid of falling, and because he hid himself too tightly, blocking his sight, he had to move down more cautiously.

Finally moved to the head, but was blocked by a few pairs of feet.

Zhou Yi didn't raise his eyes, and turned his steps to the side.

Unexpectedly, one of the feet also followed.

Still on the other side.

Zhou Yi sighed silently, stood still and raised his head.

There were four young men standing a millet away from her. The leader had a flat nose, and his face was protrudingly fat. When set off, his facial features seemed to be forced into the flesh by the bottom of a pot, which made people's eyes hurt.

"Brother, please let me go." Zhou Yi said politely.

The elder brother took a mouthful of saliva and spat viciously on the side of the road, "You still want to leave after beating someone?!"

"...??" Zhou Yi's wandering gaze was fixed on the elder brother's face for a few seconds, but he really didn't remember who this person was.

So, I have never seen it before, who did she hit?

"Brother, did you admit the wrong person?" Zhou Yi asked patiently.

The eldest brother grabbed back casually, and pulled out a "thin monkey" with bruises all over his face for Zhou Yi to identify, "Did you make the bruises on his face?"

"It's her!" The thin monkey pointed at Zhou Yi's nose with a sad and indignant expression, "I was walking on the road, but she was kicked over by me!"

"Shut up!" The eldest brother slapped the skinny monkey on the back of the neck and shouted angrily, "You have the guts to say that you were kicked over?! Ah?! You have the guts to say it! You can't even beat a girl, you Still have the face to say!"

The skinny monkey was splashed with saliva by the elder brother, holding his head in aggrieved way and shrinking back, not daring to speak any more.

After finishing the housework, the elder brother caressed his big oiled hair that was popular in the 1970s and 1980s, and said to Zhou Yi: "Sister, don't worry, and look at it carefully."

Zhou Yi didn't need to admit it, as soon as the skinny monkey opened his mouth, she remembered it—it was indeed her who kicked his lower back, and he kicked him to the ground and rubbed it out forcefully.

so what?

Some people like to make cheap money when they have nothing to do.

Zhou Yi raised his eyelids and twitched a smile, "So what?"

"Apologize if you do." The elder brother said, "What about the previous matter, I won't bother with you. You should also give my brother face today and say "I'm sorry". success? "

It will definitely work in the past.

Zhou Yi has always felt that he is honest and responsible, and he likes to go down the stairs the most.

this time...

Zhou Yi glanced at the thin monkey's smug expression, and said in a soft and tired voice, "I'm in a hurry, no."

The elder brother's expression became ruthless, and his tone became more threatening, "It won't take you long for the matter of talking and talking!"

"Oh..." Zhou Yi lowered his head and put his collar around his sore nose, "I'm sorry, my mouth is slow."

"I gave you a face, right?!" The elder brother raised his voice, "This is the only chance, it won't be so easy after it..."

When the eldest brother said the second half of the sentence, a sudden gust of wind came in, causing his vocal cords to tremble, and his voice turned around eighteen miles away, which sounded very funny.

Zhou Yi is not in the mood to listen to jokes right now.

Just after the gust of wind blew, her Tianling Gai was almost frozen and brittle.

The intense discomfort made Zhou Yi lose his patience, and he didn't bother to continue talking with them, so he stepped on the skinny monkey's feet and walked hard.

The thin monkey screamed in pain and jumped up on the spot.

At the same time, something hit Zhou Yi on the back shoulder.

It was very heavy, and through the fluffy down jacket, she could feel the dull pain spreading in an instant.

"I let you go?!" The eldest brother shouted from behind with a vulgar accent, "In a word, do you apologize!"

Zhou Yi turned his back to a few people and said nothing, his back was straight, and he remained motionless. His back looked like the terrifying tranquility before the storm, but his front... had a red nose and tears in his eyes.

she!

real!

I'm sick of a cold!

Restlessness swept over.

Zhou Yi took out a hand from his pocket to wipe his tears, but as soon as he came into contact with the cold air, he immediately shrank back, closed his eyes tightly, and took a deep breath.

When the soreness in the nasal cavity disappeared, Zhou Yi turned around slowly and came back, looked at his elder brother's sharp eyes and said, "Don't say you can't do it today, it's impossible even if you pass your first seven."

At 2 o'clock in the morning, the director called me to do an interview. After that, I spent the whole day writing, revising, and editing like a spinning top. Finally, I was so busy that the show was broadcast, and Mu Qinglin was numb.

This is the normal state of TV reporters, and it has been like this since she graduated and entered the provincial station.

"Sister Mu, are you still leaving?" Mu Qinglin asked the intern with his last breath before leaving.

"Wake up for a while." Mu Qinglin looked up and saw the vicissitudes of the intern's face, and joked: "Can you make it to the regular defense?"

The intern nodded sincerely, "Can't..."

"Why don't you hurry up and write your resignation report?"

"what?"

"I have a sample essay here."

"Miss Mu!"

A howl from the intern broke the dull atmosphere in the office.

Mu Qinglin took advantage of the brief lucidity of his mind, and began to screen the news topics to be reported in the tomorrow morning meeting, and he packed his things and left after eight o'clock.

It was still early at this point, and Mu Qing had nothing to do when he went back, so after thinking about it, he decided to go to the Red Gate Alley for a drink to pass the time.

Hongmen Lane faces the Yong'an River at its back, the river is clear, and flowers are flying all the year round. After being transformed into a special scenic spot a few years ago, it has contributed a lot of GDP to the economic development of the city. The other side is full of modern office buildings such as Provincial Taiwan. Buildings are connected to each other, blocking Hongmen Lane tightly. Every day until the sun starts to set in the west, there will be no direct sunlight coming in.

Fast on one side and slow on the other, the two completely different rhythms of life did not have the slightest impact on the people in Red Gate Alley.

Relying on the historical district under their feet, they have retained the architectural style of the late 1990s and insisted on self-government. The government departments dare not demolish or modify it. The development is dull and lagging behind, and it still maintains the disorder and congestion of more than ten years ago. , from time to time, because of various violations of law and discipline, it will make headlines, so that no one cares about the adjacent districts, and throws them all as hot potatoes.

The first time Mu Qinglin and his colleagues went to Hongmen Lane for entertainment, they were tricked. Someone took away their mobile phone and wallet, and felt that the place needed to be rectified urgently.

Later, she went to have a drink by herself, and the atmosphere created by the straightforward music, ambiguous lights and loud voices on the street was unexpectedly real.

This authenticity can overshadow the exhaustion in the workplace.

After that, Mu Qinglin went there often, and it became a habit over time.

Another reason is convenience.

There is a small path connecting Hongmen Lane next to the provincial platform.

Go along this path, you can go to the east end of Hongmen Lane.

There were few people in Dongtou, so Mu Qinglin didn't walk that hard—the steps were smooth and her thoughts were scattered. It was so heavy that she staggered back a step before she managed to stabilize herself. Even the leather shoes she bought a few days ago were not spared.

Fortunately, this group of people will hold their feet, otherwise she will have to limp to work tomorrow.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect someone to appear here suddenly. I owe you the money I just stepped on your foot, and I will pay it back after I finish solving the trouble."

When the group of people spoke, they waved their hands back and took off their hats. Only then did Mu Qinglin realize that the one who hit her was a girl with a clear and bright face, but her expression was not too bright.

It was as if someone had pulled him by the shoulder and pushed him over.

As soon as Zhou Yi said something, he would go up and kick people.

Mu Qinglin glanced at the two strong elder brothers who could stand against her on the opposite side, subconsciously dragged her back, and at the same time quickly turned sideways, caught the fist swung by the elder brother, and took advantage of the momentum to hit the rough concrete wall.

The elder brother let out an "Aww" in pain, and instantly lost his ability to fight.

The situation suddenly changed, and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to act rashly.

The awkward and eerie silence lasted for a long time before someone reacted, rolling up their sleeves and trying to jump up.

"What are you doing? It's you guys again!" The patrolman roared from the side, "The 20,000-character inspection is not enough!"

The older brother, who had recovered, trembled when he heard the familiar voice of the patrolman, and said "Zhou Yi, wait for me!" and ran away, so fast that the coach of the national team would probably be jealous.

After a period of chaos, the surroundings returned to calm.

Zhou Yi moved his arm that was still tightly held by Mu Qinglin, and said in a warm tone, "I didn't see it, you are pretty good at it. Thank you just now."

Mu Qinglin let go of his thoughts, and wanted to say, "I'm just a little bit stronger than you who were unilaterally picked up by others, and I really don't have any skills." When the words came to his mouth, he felt bad and hurt his face, so he changed his words: "You're welcome..."

Zhou Yi smiled brightly, stretched his foot in front of Mu Qinglin, and said generously: "Step on it, and you will be paid back twice."

Mu Qinglin looked down at Zhou Yi's chubby snow boots, and didn't move for a while.

"Don't step on it? If you don't step on it, I'll leave." Zhou Yi shrank her neck and said, if she didn't go back to grill the radiator, her bones would be frozen.

Mu Qinglin shook his head, looked down at her and said, "You don't remember me at all?"

"Huh?" Zhou Yi stared at Mu Qinglin in a daze for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "I'm sorry, sometimes I suddenly become blind."

Mu Qinglin gave a short laugh, relaxed his shoulders, pointed to the garbage dump not far away, and said, "That's right there. Last winter, you lured me into an adult massage parlor with a small note."
