The Last Love

CHAPTER 113

The morning han jiang que left city B was gray, and there was occasionally fine snow falling in the air. The morning sun hid behind the thick clouds, like a gloomy face quietly looking down on the world.
He muted his phone in his pocket, and the highway to Jincheng was empty, and the whole world was so
quiet.
It was so quiet that it was even a little
sad. The journey takes about three hours and 15 minutes, along Line 13, past three gas stations, and then climbs a short stretch of rugged winding roads to finally



reach Jincheng, his hometown of Jincheng, a small northern city.


The air here seems to be forever filled with fog, there is no money-making industry, so the young people leave year after year, because of the aging of the resident population, even the parks and playgrounds are slowly depressed and closed, and the people who stay there are gradually losing their vitality and attractiveness with the
city.
What almost no one knows is that Han Jiangque actually often drives back alone like
this.
He never took the high-speed train, perhaps because of the habit of driving in the United States, he preferred to drive alone in
silence.
The long drive was as natural to him as a lonely migration of a
beast.
The deficit in memory makes Han Jiangque not good at careful thinking, and he always instinctively returns to his frozen homeland, where the breath is always calling to
him.

......
Jincheng in winter is like entering a long hibernation.

There are often no people on the streets, the snow on the road is shoveled and piled together, and the old buildings on both sides are equipped with iron security windows, and ice cones condense under the
windows. <
He lives in the only Sheraton Hotel in Jincheng, where there are almost no guests and the front desk sleeps every
day.
Han Jiangque slowly drove around the city, and in those few days, the time was sometimes fast, and sometimes it seemed to be very
slow. He went to a



lot of places by himself -- the places he had been to with Wen Ke.


Holliday KTV, East Lake Amusement Park, Beef Noodle Shop on Lin'an Road, and the small shop where they have photographed big stickers, these places have all changed their
faces.
But The North Third Middle School is still
there.
North Third Middle School is still on Luoyang Street, with no trace of renovation in the past ten years, and the paint on the school gate railing has peeled
off. Han Jiangque flipped through the back door of the school as he had done countless times



before, and then walked through the corridor of the teaching building where the cold wind whistled in the dark, and found the classroom where he and Wen Ke had been in the empty classroom, the desks were neatly arranged.


The handwriting on the blackboard is somewhat blurry, vaguely writing the winter vacation homework assigned by the
teacher.
First row, second row, third
row...
Han Jiang Que counted and walked to the eighth
row.
The seat was covered with ash, and he didn't care, but blew the dust away and sat
down.
Han Jiangque set his eyes on the playground, through the dirty window glass, but it was as if he had traveled through time in that instant, and saw him and Wen Ke standing on the playground track
together. <
How could the good student Wen Ke be punished, probably because he was
tired.
But Han Jiang Que couldn't remember what it was because of, only that Tian Ke and him held the textbook high above his head and were punished.

The sun was scorching, and their school uniforms and shirts were all
wet. When he turned his head to look at Wen Ke, Wen Ke's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, but he still secretly spat out his tongue at him.
Wen Ke's face seemed to be so close to
him.
Han Jiang Que couldn't help but gently reach forward, wanting to touch Wen Ke's soft
cheek.
However, the icy touch of the window glass woke him up, and he looked to the
sides.
In the dark classroom, he was still sitting alone, and the biting cold wind was coming from all directions.

He slipped his hand into the drawer of his desk, and when he took it out again, he had nothing on his hands, only a thick layer of dust on his fingertips.

Han Jiangque's fingers suddenly trembled violently.

For several days, he cut off all contact with the outside
world.
He was afraid to communicate with Wen Ke, and even for a moment, he thought he didn't love Wen Ke anymore.

But when he sat here again, he suddenly clarified his
escape.
Because like Wen Ke, he had a long and helpless pain in his
heart. TTen years ago, when he was 16 years old, he



used to sit in the same position and look at the empty palms trembling - "Where did Xiao Ke's medical report go?"


Han Jiang Que jumped up and left the dilapidated classroom as if fleeing.


......
On the Highway 13, a black Audi struggled through the snowstorm.

The cold wind seemed to be roaring against the car window, and the wheels ran over the thick snow quilt, making a difficult creaking
sound.
Jiang Chao cautiously held the steering wheel, he did not dare to step on the accelerator, some sections of the road have been frozen, in such weather driving almost all the time slippery, this is really a very dangerous
thing.
"Mr. Wen, I don't think we can rush like this, the road is very
poor."
Jiang Chao whispered.

Wen Ke was still persevering and constantly dialing Han Jiangque's phone, and when he heard Jiang Chao's words, his face couldn't help but turn a little pale, and he reluctantly said, "Wait a little longer, maybe the snow will be smaller after a
while."
Jiang Chao looked at wen Ke, who looked haggard, sighed, and continued to drive forward for a

while.
But after stopping at the third gas station, Jiang Chao looked at the steep mountain road in front of him, frowned, and said resolutely: "No, the snow is big, the fog is too big, you can see so low at night and you have to open a mountain road, absolutely not, you are still pregnant, in case something happens, I can't explain to Mr.
Han." <
Wen Ke looked at his mobile phone screen and was silent for a long

time.
Outside was the sound of hail "crackling" on the body of the car, and he actually understood that Jiang Chao was
right.
Couldn't have been more
reluctant.
But he was really unwilling, obviously as long as he drove for half an hour, he would be able to find Han Jiangque.



Ke!"
Jiang Chao's tone suddenly intensified: "There is a small inn next to the gas station, where we can wait for one
night."
Wen Ke finally lowered his head weakly and said softly, "Good."


They got out of the car together, and as soon as they walked outside, Wen Ke realized more clearly how bad the weather was, the cold wind almost made him unstable, he covered his head with his hands, and walked quickly with Jiang Chao to the

hotel. In the midst of the howling wind, Wen Ke vaguely seemed to feel the vibration of the mobile phone,



for a moment he thought it was his own delusion, but when he looked down in a hurry, his whole body trembled involuntarily - Wen Ke almost rushed into the hotel, and without caring about anything, he leaned against the door to answer the phone.

"Xiao



Ke..." "Han Jiang Que!"


Wen Ke grabbed the scarf in his hand, "Where are you
now?" "Xiao



Ke." <
The voice on the phone said, "I miss
you." Then



he paused and repeated softly, "I miss you."
"I miss you

too."
Wen Ke almost choked up and whispered, "Where are you, where are you
hiding?"
Han Jiangque did not answer Wen Ke's question immediately, his voice sounded very distant, as if it were in a tunnel and echoed sullenly: "Xiao Ke, before I said I hated

you." But in fact, I only hate you very little, very little; I also hate Zhuo Yuan, of course I hate him. But the person I hate the most is actually myself.
"Han Jiangque, first tell me where you are, is it in Jincheng?"


Wen Ke tightened his grip on the doorknob.

Han Jiangque on the other side of the phone was silent for a while before he said, "I'm sitting on the steps of your house'
corridor." Wen



Ke's eye circles turned red at once, and he said after a long time: "Is it cold or not?" It's snowing heavily. "It's



not cold. I was watching the snow. Han Jiangque said, "Xiao Ke, there is a very small window in the corridor compartment of your house, do you remember?" I could only see a small corner of the sky. "Remember."



Wen Ke said, "Han Xiaoque, I am also watching the snow." I was in that little inn outside Jincheng. "



"...... You came to me.
Han Jiangque's voice trembled a

little. <

"Hmm."
Jiang Chao had already opened the room, stood silently next to Wen Ke, and handed over a room
card.
Wen Ke nodded and took over, and then walked inside with Jiang
Chao.
This is a small hotel, the room facilities are very old, the lights are dim, as soon as you open the door there is a musty smell, but there is also heating.

Wen Ke took off his coat, and then stood in front of the window and watched the snow flying
outside. He turned to the phone and said softly, "Han Xiaoque, we are watching the same snow, I am very close to you." "Hmm."




Han Jiang Que responded with a low
voice.
The house where Wen Ke lived before was too old, and after ten years, it was basically in a semi-abandoned state, the sensor lights in the corridor failed, everywhere was full of ash, and the corners of the security doors were covered with spider webs.

The place where he was was was dark, and the steps were as cold as if they were
frozen.
He was also sitting here the summer when he lost Wen Ke, when it was pouring rain outside, so he just cried out wantonly.

Han Jiang Que said softly, "I've been thinking about a question for the past few
days. In this life, people are not doomed to have many mistakes, and they can never be recovered. "Yes."



WWen Ke said, "I'm



sorry, Han Xiaoque, it's me..." "I'm talking about myself, Xiao Ke—ten years ago, I left your medical examination form in the classroom."
"I forgot something so
important."
Han Jiang Que said in a dumb voice, "By the time I came back to class on the third day, the physical examination sheet had been spread everywhere, and everyone knew that you were actually Omega or E-level Omega."
Actually, that's where it all started, right? "I know



you..." "Obviously it's



my fault, I caused you to be transferred, I caused you to be talked about by other classmates, but I never apologized to you, but childishly cold war with you -- in fact, I pushed you to Zhuo Yuan myself." 」
Wen Ke finally couldn't help but say eagerly, "I already know about your memory
problem!" I have all understood the fact that pheromone stimulation causes encephalitis, and it was Fu Xiaoyu who told me. Listen to me, the matter of the physical examination list is not your fault, and after that, none of us can predict it. "You know..."



Han Jiangque's face instantly turned pale.




The sore spot that had been hidden for more than a decade was suddenly seen, and he did not want to say it so early, because it seemed to be shirking responsibility.

But along the way, he had been hiding for too long and too tired, so much so that when he heard these words, he even felt a sense of
relief.
His tone didn't even have the strength to be surprised: "You...
You know what? ""Yes."



Wen Ke cut through the iron tunnels.
Han Jiangque curled up like a child, his body trembling slightly under his coat: "Actually, I always want to find a reason for all this misfortune, but every time I think about it for a long time, I feel very
scared." My dad hated Omega because my memory was severely damaged, and I hated you for being Omega, and because of my poor memory, I lost your medical checkup again. You see, everything is mixed together like a ball of yarn, as if it were destined to go to the point of no return for my problems. "It's



easy to push all this to Zhuo Yuan, but when I hate him, in fact, there has always been a hole in my heart."
"Xiao Ke —I am, I am such an unsound person, I can't even remember every word you say, so I have been abandoned all my
life."
Han Jiangque closed his eyes and leaned his head against the wall, and he finally said all the words in his heart: "In fact, what I am really afraid of is that I am not capable of giving you
happiness."
Wen Ke's tears flowed silently.


He heard the pain in Han Jiangque's
heart.
Han Jiangque has been abandoned all his life, abandoned by the Korean War from birth, hurt by Omega's father, and then until his
departure. Even later, because Han Jiangque went to find Alpha's father for him, even Omega's father did not want him because of his "betrayal".
The damage caused to people by such a lifelong abandonment is devastating.
<
Han Jiangque's pain had actually surpassed the word
hate.
How can a person whose memories are even a luxury not feel deeply puzzled and frightened of his
fate?
Wen Ke squeezed the phone tightly and said slowly, "Han Xiaoque, you listen to me, you have already given me
happiness."
"You're right, I'm really cowardly.
After my mother died, I... In fact, I thought about committing suicide, but when that thought came up, I was frightened, so I would even lie to myself, so that I could survive secretly - I have a desire to survive, and this desire to survive comes from you. In those ten years, during the day I sealed the dust of the paintings you gave me, trying not to think about your name; but at night, I became a giraffe, why is it a giraffe, Han Xiaoque, because only you said that I am like a giraffe, it is you who gave my soul a body that can be quietly placed.
"So not only am I weak, but I'm actually very

cunning." I never even been able to give Zhuo Yuan real love, just forcibly restrain myself during the day with reason, so as to be a dutiful Omega, only from an emotional point of view, he and I can't even say who is sorry for whom. I put all this on the power of the mark because I was cunning and inertial, and I did not even dare to admit my cowardice and meanness. Even with you, I'm still subconsciously protecting myself. "I'm



really not as good as Wen Ke ten years ago, and that Xiao Ke won't be willing to bully you like this." Give me a little time to become that he again. You believe me, that little Ke has actually been in my heart, I didn't kill him, when I went to the dance floor and grabbed you tightly, I thought... It's you who still need me. <
"Han Xiaoque, you are the only person in the world who can make the cowardly Wen Ke

brave." "Xiao



Ke..." It turned out that Wen Ke was not born tall, but because he loved him, he became the giraffe in his heart.


I've always needed
you.
He suddenly wanted to hold his Omega.

At that moment, Han Jiangque remembered that in the second year of high school, they secretly drank a bottle of beer together before studying in the evening, and when they returned, they were caught on the spot by the class teacher and sternly questioned why they had the smell of wine on
them.
He stood still at a loss, but the good student Wen Ke said without changing his face: "Teacher, because we ate beer duck together at
night."
Han Jiang Que couldn't help but smile

silly. At the same time, he also remembered his own mood at that



time--how could Wen Ke be so likable.


It turns out that you have been so cunning, but when you admit that you are cunning, even the word has become
cute.
"Han Jiangque."

Wen Ke suddenly and solemnly called out his full name: "Wait for you to come back, mark me,
okay?"
Han Jiang Que held the phone, and after a long time, he whispered, "I love you, Wen

Ke." He



lifted his head, and in the dark corridor, the only glimmer came from the small window in the stair compartment, from which a few snowflakes drifted in and landed on his face, like a gentle kiss.
He thought that he really didn't care so much
now.
This ten years of testing, in fact, they are all in their own way, Wen Ke survived by cunning, and he waited for the giraffe because of stubbornness.

Neither of these is tied to the markup.

None of them are of course perfectly
round.
But fortunately, love is actually a puzzle, and it is precisely because two people have a gap that they can be tightly combined
together.
