The Cannon Fodder Strikes Back

Chapter 37

Yunjinshu’s eyelashes trembled, and the stunned expression on his face was cleaned up, only a right smile was left, “Why are you here?”

Han Jiang raised the corners of his mouth, and Ying Ting raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s okay, just come and see you.”

“Heh, what’s so good about me?” Yun Jinshu shrugged his shoulders indifferently, “I am very tired today. I don’t have the time to accompany Boss Han to blow the cold wind here. If you just take a look, you have already seen it. Please come back when you are done.”

As he said, he picked up the backpack, turned around and walked into the corridor, without any intention to continue talking with Han Jiang.

But Han Jiang stood still, his eyes fell on the backpack held by Yunjinshu. He recognized that the sign above was the trademark of a resort several kilometers away from S city.

His chest was so tight that he felt severe pain in his forehead. He suppressed his emotions and slowly asked, “Where have you been this day?”

Yun Jinshu stagnated, did not intend to hide him, smiled and said, “I didn’t go anywhere, I just went for a walk with my friends…”

Han Jiang’s face sank, and he stepped forward to look at him and said, “Which friend is it with? You don’t even want to answer the phone, right?”

Yun Jinshu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, “It’s you who always call me today?”

Once the words were blurted, there was no time to take them back. Han Jiang’s eyes shrank violently a few times, and the original worry for Yun Jinshu suddenly fell to the bottom.

While standing downstairs waiting for Yun Jinshu to come back, Han Jiang couldn’t help but worry about him. Now that the outside is so messy, he has been told not to go out, but he is not only disobedient, but also missing cleanly.

It’s not that he never thought that he was chased by the paparazzi and couldn’t get out of it, or that he had a job and was too busy to answer the phone… But after finding so many reasons, it ended up being nothing.

It’s not that Yun Jinshu didn’t hear his call, but deliberately didn’t answer it. He would rather go out crazy with others for a day than say hello to himself.

This feeling is like being slapped in the face fiercely, hot and bitter, spreading from the heart to the whole body, turning into a chill and piercing into the limbs.

Han Jiang’s face changed and changed, a smile of self-deprecating aroused, “Yes, it’s me, today I called you a total of 56 calls and sent 49 text messages, looking forward to you every time. Can you give me a little response, even if it’s a word or two, just let me know that you are safe, but it’s a pity…” He smiled bitterly and shook his head, but in the end he didn’t say any more.

Yun Jinshu’s face turned pale, and the fingers that he copied in his pocket trembled. He didn’t know what tricks Han Jiang was playing with. Wen Zeyun had just been caught in the game. He didn’t want to find a back door for him. What does it mean to run downstairs?

The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he smiled politely, “Sorry, I didn’t have the time to answer the phone before. I didn’t mean to embarrass you.”

Han Jiang really didn’t like him treating himself like a stranger, his chin tightened tightly, and slowly said, “What the **** are you up to, don’t even have time to answer the phone?”

Yun Jinshu shrugged, “This is personal privacy, isn’t it, Boss Han is even interested in this? Then you are too broad-minded, right?”

The smile on his face is perfect without any flaws, and even the curvature of the corners of his mouth is as accurate as measured by a ruler, but Han Jiang doesn’t want this. He just wants Yunjinshu to tell him like before. It doesn’t matter if you speak, even if you are gagging and talking nonsense, but the Yunjinshu at the moment seems to be wearing a thick mask. It is obvious that the two people are less than two steps apart, but the distance between each other seems to be separated by an ocean.

Yun Jinshu saw that he was silent, except that those deep black eyes looked at him dull and dark, and his heart was confused for a while, his mouth was tightly pressed without saying a word.

The two people stood under the dim street lamp like puppets, relatively speechless, each other’s shadows were drawn very long, the cold winter night was hung, and Han Jiang’s windbreaker was rustling.

In the stagnant atmosphere, Yun Jinshu’s cell phone suddenly rang again. He didn’t want to be in a stalemate with Han Jiang anymore. He hurriedly avoided his sight and pulled out the cell phone from his backpack in a panic. Phone, but the number displayed on the screen now belongs to Gu Yan.

Han Jiang’s expression was condensed, and he looked at him silently, Yun Jinshu pressed his lips tightly, glanced at him, and answered the phone.

“……Hey?”

“It’s me, Jinshu, I think you should be home by the time, but I haven’t seen you call or send a text message to say anything, so I took the initiative to vote for the net, haha, did you not get caught by the paparazzi on the road?”

Gu Yan’s hearty laughter came out of the earpiece, and it seemed particularly harsh in the quiet late night. Han Jiang’s face was already pale, and the palm of his hand holding the red wine was tightly clenched, as if he had exhausted his whole body’s strength.

Yun Jinshu took a few steps forward and nodded indiscriminately, “…Um…no, it’s…very good.”

“You didn’t get tired after playing for a day and you haven’t slowed down now?” Gu Yan said with a sullen laugh on the other side of the phone, “You, just lack of exercise, next time we are free, let’s Let’s go together again. By the way, the cheese prawns we ate tonight are pretty good, and I will have one more next time.”

“Ok……”

Gu Yan was chatting with him on the other side of the phone, but Yunjinshu was sitting on pins and needles. It was clear that he had nothing to do with Gu Yan, even if he did, it had nothing to do with Han Jiang, but he was still very uneasy, even on his back. Even the cold sweat came out.

Gu Yan chatted with him a few more words and realized that Yun Jinshu was not in a high mood, and smiled and said, “Are you sleepy? It’s late, go to bed early, and work tomorrow, Jinshu, good night and good dreams. ”

Yun Jinshu pursed his lips and nodded gently, “…good night.”

After the phone hung up, there was a long beep, Yun Jinshu’s heart became confused, and he moved his gaze aside, and even winked at Han Jiang, and took the phone directly up the stairs.

Han Jiang stood in the cold wind and looked at him. He watched Yunjinshu slowly disappear into the dark night. He was panicked. He ran forward a few steps and couldn’t help calling out his name, “Jinshu .”

Yun Jinshu didn’t stop, he forced himself to say nothing and couldn’t turn his head back, but Han Jiang gave a faintly wry smile from a distance from him.

“today is my birthday.”

Yunjinshu stopped abruptly.

Han Jing’s low voice was like a sigh that seemed like nothing. It was floating in the vast night. The weather was getting worse, and his freezing voice became a little unstable.

“It’s 11:40, and there are 20 minutes to be tomorrow. Can I just take these 20 minutes?”

Yun Jinshu’s lips trembled slightly, and the fingers holding the backpack were stretched tightly. There was almost no blood color in his eyes. He knew that he shouldn’t be like this, but he couldn’t help thinking of the previous ones in his head. thing.

Five years, five birthdays, no matter how busy he was, he would fly back to celebrate Han Jiang’s birthday. I remember one time when he was filming in London, just in time for this day, so he had to temporarily ask the crew for leave, and was offended for this. The charming heroine, in order to be able to rush back to City S before midnight, but the ticket was bought and the gifts were prepared, but in the afternoon London started to snow, and all flights were cancelled.

At that time, he was anxious but weak, and went back to the hotel dejectedly. When he pushed the door, he saw Han Jiang in the dust.

He still remembers the smile on Han Jiang’s face when he raised his head and saw him. He opened his arms and said to him, “The day before yesterday, I read the weather forecast saying that there is a Blizzard in London. I’m afraid I won’t see you today. Even if I took a plane at night, I didn’t expect God to be so face-saving. As soon as the plane landed in the morning, a blizzard started in the afternoon.

Yun Jinshu did not remember what his expression was at that time. Maybe he was crying with joy, maybe he was overwhelmed with joy, but no matter what it was, he remembered that when he hugged Han Jiang tightly, he said softly in his ear. Pass

“Jin Shu, I want to be with you every birthday from now on.”

The past is vivid, but now it is unbearable to look back.

He used to remember Han Jiang’s birthday firmly, but now he has forgotten it like this. I couldn’t tell whether it was relief or emptiness, but I still remember that I had promised Han Jiang that he would spend every birthday for him. After all, I owed him once for the missed appointment in Wudu that day.

Now, just take it as it is and return it as it is, and you can leave without a trace of concern in the future, right?

As time passed by, Han Jiang almost gave up hope while waiting, but Yun Jinshu stood on the stairs and turned around, glanced at him faintly and said, “Come on.”

——

Twenty-three: fifty-two minutes and forty-one seconds.

In less than eight minutes, this ups and downs of the day is finally over.

After entering the house, Yun Jinshu put down his backpack, poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Han Jiang, “There is only coffee and water. It is too late, so no coffee will be served. Boss Han will drink it.”

“Clear water is good.”

Han Jiang took the water glass and looked at the small apartment with one bedroom and one living room. The decoration is very simple, but it is clean and tidy, and it is very homely.

Putting the cake and red wine on the small coffee table, he smiled gently and said, “I couldn’t get through your phone. I thought you were entangled by the paparazzi, so I wanted to buy a piece of cake. You can pad your stomach, but I heard you have eaten with Mr. Gu just now, so forget it.”

Yun Jinshu let out an “um”, looked at his cold red cheeks and asked, “You have been waiting outside? Why don’t you go and sit in the car?”

Han Jiang took a sip of hot water and felt his whole body finally warmed up. He smiled and shook his head. “Many paparazzi in my car recognize it. At this time, I don’t want to cause trouble for you, so I just walked over by myself.”

Yun Jinshu suffocated and looked away, “I don’t like sweet things. Anyway, it’s your birthday today. Just take care of the cake and red wine. You don’t need to put it here.”

Han Jiang pursed his lips and raised his head to look at him, with a gentle look in his eyes, “If you don’t like it, throw it away. Anyway, the birthday cake after the expiration date is no more delicious.”

Yun Jinshu lowered his head and didn’t intend to answer his words. He sat on the sofa holding a cup of hot hot water, watching the time on the phone go by little by little, and Han Jiang’s birthday passed in a minute.

The room was so quiet that only the sound of each other’s breathing could be heard, and at this moment, suddenly he didn’t know where he came from, and suddenly Han Jiang touched his nose in embarrassment.

Yun Jinshu couldn’t help laughing, Han Jiang saw his eyes softer, “Sorry… I was in a hurry to come out today, I wanted to have dinner with you, but…”

He nodded clearly, Yunjinshu was a little bit dumbfounded. He had known Han Jiang for six years. From start to finish, he was gentle and handsome, and he had never been in a predicament like today.

Sighing, he put down the cup and stood up, “Wait a while, I’ll get you a bowl of noodles.”

Han Jiang did not refuse this time. One is that he is really hungry at the moment, and the most important thing is that he misses the time with Yunjinshu very much, misses the taste of that bowl of noodles, and of course misses Yunjinshu nestled in his legs even more. Looks asleep on top.

There was the sound of beating eggs from the kitchen, and after a while the aroma of a pot of small green onions drifted into the living room, Han Jiang slowly leaned over, leaning on the door frame and watching Yunjinshu skillfully cut the tomatoes into even small pieces , Stir-fried a few times in the pot, poured half a bowl of water and boiled, grabbed a handful of dragon beard noodles and put it in.

The Yunjinshu did not change from the day when he left the Jade Villa. He still had clean short hair, a straight back, and a blue plaid apron around his waist, instantly making Han Jiang want to come forward and hug him.

He wonders why there is a person in the world who can give him such a strong feeling of home, even if he does not have it in the military district compound. He hates that rigorous, rigorous and rigid old mansion, a father who is obsessed with politics and noble but difficult to get close Mother, and the servant and housekeeper of a house, everything is perfect, but only a piece of firework is missing.

He couldn’t help but walked over and stretched out his arms to hug Yunjinshu from behind, but his arms fell halfway through. In the end, he didn’t make a sound, but silently exited the kitchen.

Yun Jinshu brought out the tomato and egg noodles in the pot on the table, took a paper towel and wiped his wet hands, glanced at Han Jiang, and did not ask him to come and eat, so he walked out of the restaurant alone.

Han Jiang just smiled, picked up his chopsticks and started to eat. The taste of the noodles was not very good, far inferior to the bowl of “clear noodles” made in Yunjinshu last time, but he was very satisfied.

The clock had already pointed to 0:16, and it was a new day. Yunjinshu glanced out of the window. I don’t know when there was a heavy snow in the sky, and the night has been dyed pure white.

Looking back at Han Jiang who was eating the noodles, Yun Jinshu said with no expression, “Your birthday is already past. Let’s leave after eating the noodles.”

Han Jiang paused with his chopsticks, and raised his head after eating the last piece of noodles in the bowl. After a while, he said briefly, “Okay.”

Yun Jinshu didn’t expect that he could promise so simply, but he was stunned for a while.

After Han Jiang took the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen and washed them, he walked to the living room and took out a piece of paper from his pocket and placed it in front of him. You have to finish what you should say before leaving.”

He unfolded the folded paper and pointed at it and said, “This is the contract we signed at the beginning. I thought about forcing you to come to Emerald Villa anyway. Let’s talk about it again, but before I come today, I I don’t know why I brought it, Jinshu, I promised to give you freedom, so you hold this contract in the future and you want to tear it off or keep it. It has nothing to do with me.”

Yunjinshu stared at the black-and-white contract with his own name signed one by one, knocking over the five-flavored bottle in his heart.

The plot of this life was flipped like a world change. In the previous life, he had spent five years without escape from the **** of this contract, but now he held it in his hand with ease.

He squeezed his lips and squeezed the thin piece of paper. After a moment of silence, he started to start his hands. Soon after, the curse-like thing was broken into several pieces, and it looked a little dazzling when it fell on the clean floor.

From now on he is free, and he is no longer a puppet controlled by Han Jiang, nor is he a shield for anyone.

After Han Jiang watched him tear it off, although he was disappointed because Yun Jinshu wanted to leave him so eagerly, he still had a smile on his face, “Can I pursue you equally in the future?”

Yun Jinshu did not answer his question, but pointed to the door and said, “Go back, there is an umbrella at the door.”

Without getting the answer he wanted, Han Jiang just gave a wry smile and opened the door with the umbrella at the door, “Then…I’m leaving, Jin Shu, thank you for celebrating my birthday with me.”

Yun Jinshu waved his hand, but still didn’t look at him, the door slowly closed, Han Jiang’s last figure disappeared before his eyes, and he raised his head, his chest was so tight, but he didn’t know why.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and the wind is blowing, and soon I can’t see people’s shadows on the road. Yun Jinshu forced myself not to think about how hard it would be for Han Jiang to walk on such a street right now. The heart took a bath and got into the bed.

On a snowy night, the entire S city was as cold as an ice cellar.

In the second half of the night, the temperature was getting lower and lower, and Yun Jinshu, who had finally fallen asleep, curled up and still couldn’t sleep, but after a while, he suddenly heard a violent knock on the door.

He woke up suddenly, put on a piece of clothing and ran out. The door of the room was still humming. He opened the door and found Han Jiang sitting on the ground.

At this moment, his forehead was full of cold sweat, trembling clearly, but his expression showed deep horror and despair. Yun Jinshu was about to speak in astonishment, but Han Jiang suddenly hugged him fiercely.

Yun Jinshu really didn’t know what he wanted to do. After breaking free, he pushed him a bit, “Han Jiang, what do you want to do when you don’t go home in the middle of the night and stay at my door?”

Han Jiang stroked his forehead with one hand, his messy hair no longer looked like the handsome and handsome before, “Jin Shu…I had a dream. I dreamed that you were thrown into the sea, and I stood on the shore and watched. I watched you sink, and I couldn’t even shout or move… I woke up immediately, and then couldn’t help but want to see you.”

Yun Jinshu was stunned for a moment, and then a face turned pale…
