Two months later, on a moonlit night, it was already silent outside. Occasionally, there will be the barking of dogs and the crying of children, floating into the house faintly. Huai Ru lay on the bed tossing and turning, really able to fall asleep.
I have to go to the airport early tomorrow morning to catch my flight home, but I always feel a little confused in my mind. The sound of the clock on the wall, the crackling of the floor due to dryness, and all kinds of small noises made Huai Ru feel his heart ache.
The night outside the window screen was as cold as water, Huai Ru didn't know exactly what time he fell asleep, he only knew that he slept really hard. Even in the dream, it seems to be full of all kinds of distress.
In the haze, Huai Ru was dazed to see Wan Qing reach out her hand, feel the temperature on his forehead, then tuck the quilt for him again, and said in an extremely soft voice: "You Don't worry, I've set two alarm clocks. It's still early, if you sleep a little longer, there will still be troubles on the long-distance plane."
Huai Ru glanced at Wan Qing's melting smile, and soon fell asleep again.
Because he is prone to anxiety, coupled with long-term irregular work and rest, he has always had poor sleep quality. Every time I wake up in the middle of the night, or when I have a nightmare, it is easy to disturb Wanqing's rest.
Every time here, Huai Ru always feels a little guilty. After all, Wan Qing's work is not easy on weekdays. There are so many things in the laboratory, and nothing is easy.
But Wan Qing always patted his arm and comforted him in an irrelevant tone, letting him go back to sleep as soon as possible.
On the morning of the second day, Huairu opened his sleepy eyes, the sky was not bright yet. There was a faint sound of footsteps downstairs, and Huai Ru saw Wan Qing's figure busy back and forth.
"Wan Qing, why did you get up so early?" Huai Ru subconsciously said, "I'm still early for departure, so you should go back to sleep again."
"It's okay, you didn't sleep well last night, so hurry up and close your eyes to rest your mind. I see that your suitcase is in a mess and a pile of clothes are stuffed in a mess, so I'd better clean it up for you. There are also suits and shirts, which are all wrinkled." It looks good, I have to use the clothes dryer to iron it, and it will be more decent when I go back to China to give lectures." Wan Qing replied.
"Look at me, I'm just a fool. I've never done things as carefully as you. It's an old problem, and I really need to change it." Huai Ru smiled and shook his head: "I can't just let you do it alone, let me make breakfast .¡±
The morning breeze blows through the window, and the golden sunlight slowly reflects on the kitchen wall. Huai Ru fried bacon and raw eggs, together with a few slices of heated bread, made a simple sandwich. Then he used the muffin maker to fry a few pieces of Wan Qing's favorite muffins, and sprinkled some honey and blueberry jam on them.
The couple ate breakfast comfortably at the bar in the kitchen and chatted for a while. The two had a tacit understanding, and neither of them mentioned work. Most of the chats were about trivial daily matters, such as wild rabbits eating vegetables in the backyard last night;
Seeing that the clock pointed to nine o'clock, Wan Qing sent Huai Ru directly to the airport. The couple solemnly hugged at the entrance, which was counted as a short farewell.
Huai Ru's back disappeared at the entrance, Wan Qing looked down at her watch, and then hurried to the parking lot. She has to drive back to the office, and today there is still a video conference between two experimental collaborators. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
