Boyi had grown accustomed to hearing Qianqian's chirping voices and seeing the lights on in his own house every day when he returned home. But this evening, when he returned from work, he found his yard completely dark, and he felt strangely anxious.
He hurriedly opened the locked gate and didn't even have time to push his bicycle into the yard. He rushed into the main room, turned on the light, and searched inside and out.
After all, he couldn't find Qianqian, so he rushed out of the hospital and ran towards the storage room, wanting to see if Qianqian had gone to pick up Xiao Youchen.
As soon as he reached Wen Dazui's house, he anxiously asked, "Big sister, is Qianqian here with you?"
Wen Dazui glanced at his man and replied calmly: "No! Why? She's not home?"
"No!"
"You...you had a fight?"
"No! She was fine when I left this morning." Boyi panted and scratched his head, puzzled. "Sister, please take care of Youchen tonight. I'll go to her store to check on her. She's alone and I'm afraid she might get into trouble."
"Okay, go ahead and take a look."
As soon as Wen Dazui finished speaking, Boyi rushed into the night, riding his bicycle as fast as he could to rush to town.
With the last incident with Wang Hao as a precedent, Boyi always had a bad feeling in his heart, fearing that something might happen to Qianqian.
Qianqian, besides being a bit thick-skinned and following him around all day, was actually a really nice girl. It was just that he was unlucky enough to have her. Anyway, he had already decided on Shumei. He had already missed her once, and no one could make him miss her again.
Although they cannot be lovers, as a friend, he cannot ignore Qianqian's safety.
By the time Boyi arrived in town, all the shops were closed, and under the dim streetlights, only one or two figures could be seen occasionally. The quiet of the night magnified Boyi's worries. He pedaled faster and arrived at Qianqian's barber shop.
The barber shop's door was locked and the lights were off. Boyi banged on the door desperately, "Qianqian, Qianqian, are you there? I'm Boyi, are you in there? Qianqian..."
Qianqian was very confused. This was clearly her home, but she couldn't sleep in her own bed. However, she could sleep soundly at Boyi's house. As she was tossing and turning in bed, she suddenly heard Boyi's voice and thought she was hallucinating.
She covered her ears tightly and closed her eyes, "Xiong Qianqian, can you be more capable? Can you still hallucinate like this?"
Seeing no movement from inside, Boyi's knocking on the door and calling out intensified, so much so that Qianqian could hear them clearly even with her ears covered.
Qianqian put down her hands that were covering her ears and listened carefully. "That's not right! It doesn't seem like I'm hallucinating. Could it really be Boyi? Boyi, Boyi is here to see me..."
She jumped out of bed excitedly, and without even having time to put on her clothes, she rushed to the store to open the door.
"Bo Yi, is that you?"
While opening the door, Qianqian once again confirmed whether she was hallucinating.
"It's me, are you okay?"
"I...I'm fine!"
"Okay, if you're okay, I'll go back first. Don't open the door, go back to sleep!"
After hearing Boyi's words, Qianqian realized that he was about to leave, and she quickly shouted to keep Boyi. Just now, she was unable to sleep because of worrying about him. Now, God had finally shown mercy and sent Boyi to her. How could she let him go without even taking a look at him?
"Come in quickly! What are you doing standing outside like an idiot?"
As soon as Qianqian opened the door, she dragged Boyi and his bicycle into the store, locked the door, and threw herself into Boyi's arms, hugging him tightly.
Boyi pushed Qianqian away uncomfortably. "When I got home and saw you weren't there, I thought something had happened to you! Since you're fine, I'll go back..."
Qianqian placed her fingers on Boyi's lips and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't force myself on you. I'm really happy you can come today. I have to take care of the store from now on. This place is too far from Little Taiwan, so I can only go back every Sunday. It's so late now, just stay on the sofa for one night! Is this not too much to ask?"
Boyi originally wanted to refuse, but Qianqian's last words blocked the words that were about to come out of Boyi's throat, and he could only acquiesce to Qianqian's request.
It really worked. With Boyi around, even though they were just under the same roof and not in the same room, Qianqian fell asleep quickly. It turned out that what she missed was not the bed at Boyi's house, but the feeling of having Boyi so close by.
But for Boyi, the night was so long. He tossed and turned countless times, but could not hear the rooster crowing. He did not understand why he was so nervous. It was as uncomfortable as sleeping on firewood.
