1880. Chapter 1880 Gradually Warming Up (Part 2)
The cold wind blew all night, and when I woke up the next morning, the leaves on the ground outside the courtyard had fallen into a thick layer, and they were piled under the steps in front of the door.
It was a rare rest for Qin Su, but she was used to getting up early, so early in the morning, when it was just dawn, she had already gotten up, cleaned up, and then cooked porridge in the kitchen and simmered it over a low fire. , and then went out for a run.
When she is free on weekdays, she is also someone who attaches great importance to sports. Zhou Zimo also has a private tennis court in the backyard. In the past two days, the two of them even competed.
The sky was gradually getting brighter. When Zhou Zimo got up and finished cleaning up, and went downstairs to make breakfast, he found that the porridge had been cooked in the pot, and some simple porridge and side dishes were also placed in the pot to heat up.
He subconsciously raised his eyebrows and quickly went out to look for Qin Su. However, he found Chief Qin Su in the corridor of the backyard, cleaning the fallen leaves and early blooming plum petals in the corridor.
Qin Su was wearing a loose knitted gown today, and her hair was styled into a bun, revealing her delicate and indifferent facial features. The knitted gown made her look very petite, and her sleeves were slightly rolled up. Lifting her head, revealing a section of white arm.
"Who made you so active in such a cold weather?"
Seeing this, Zhou Zimo walked over in a few strides, reached out to take the broom in her hand, and grabbed her arm with one hand, "There are regular servants at home who come to clean, so you don't need to do this. Are you cold?" Cold?"
As he spoke, his big hand slid down and held her bare hand tightly. A chilling feeling immediately spread along the palm of his hand and into his body.
"Just looking for something to do. It's not that cold, and I'm not that afraid of the cold."
Qin Su glanced at him sideways, her eyes falling quietly on the hand he held tightly, and she struggled subconsciously.
"Nonsense! I know you've always been afraid of the cold."
Zhou Zimo scolded lowly and put the broom aside, "We don't need servants here. Let the servants do these things."
Qin Su also struggled out his hand, glanced at the broom that was thrown aside, paused, then took a step forward, holding on to the handrail in front of him and looking at the blooming plum blossoms in front of him——
"The plum blossoms bloomed very early this year."
"Fortunately, it's about the same time as in previous years. I'm afraid you won't be able to see plum blossoms like this in the northwest, right?"
Zhou Zimo also stood next to her and asked in a low voice.
"The northwest is a poor place with a vast land and sparsely populated areas. It's not like we can grow flowers and trees like this at home. Over there, all the flowers and leaves have withered in winter. The only thing that left a deep impression is the rows of flowers and trees. Poplar trees are planted on the hillside behind the station, and deep into the station is a large expanse of Gobi. The tree blocks the wind and sand and is the most common tree in the northwest. "
Qin Su said lightly, with some nostalgia in his eyes. However, now that he is back here, he can't help but feel a little emotional every time he thinks of everything related there.
Listening, Zhou Zimo slowly turned his gaze away and looked at her quietly. He saw that her long eyelashes were fluttering one by one, and her expression was a little quiet and distant, but she was a little attracted and couldn't come back to her senses.
However, as if he could sense Zhou Zimo's gaze, Qin Su also turned his head to look at him, catching all his eyes in his eyes. After a pause, he finally looked away indifferently and looked at Sui Feng in front of him. Flying plum petals.
"It seems that you still like Northwest more than home. Is there nothing you miss here?"
Zhou Zimo suddenly looked at her intently and asked.
Qin Su paused and said nothing.
"Qin Su, stay with peace of mind. Even if I shamelessly beg you to stay, you said you would give us a chance. Tell me you won't lie to me."
Zhou Zimo said, but he couldn't help but reached out to hold her, holding her shoulders, making her look at him.
Qin Su frowned and wanted to break away, but was held tightly by Zhou Zimo, so she had no choice but to give up and let him watch.
"I have no intention of changing my mind. You are overthinking it. I have always insisted on doing what I say. Once I say it, I must do it well."
Qin Su explained calmly.
Zhou Zimo listened and breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly hugged her into his arms and whispered in her ear, "That's good! As long as you are willing...as long as you are willing, everything is fine."
What he was most afraid of was that she would be so obsessed with leaving here, leaving him nowhere to be found like before. It took a lot of effort to get the news about her, and it took a lot of effort to get to this point, so of course he would not give up.
He originally thought it was just a feeling of guilt, but the more he came into contact with her, the more attracted he seemed to be. She basically didn't have to do anything, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on her, deeply attracted.
After hearing this, Qin Su looked up at him quietly for a long time, and then said calmly, "It's winter now, it must be very cold over there."
"It should be snowing over there at this time."
"Well, the snow usually falls heavily, and the soldiers can't stand it. Especially the recruits who have just passed through, they probably can't stand the severe cold weather, and every time at this time, their thoughts are... Caught very strictly.”
Qin Su said in a low voice.
"Do you find it very hard sometimes?"
Zhou Zimo asked, looking at her with a hint of concern in his eyes.
"Fortunately, I was a little bit unaccustomed to it when I first went there, but then I got used to it."
Qin Su responded without much emotion on his face, "I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye at the beginning, but the mission I received at that time was more urgent, and I had to return to the team and return to the military hospital to recuperate."
This is the first time Qin Su has explained these things to Zhou Zimo, and she has always been the kind of person who doesn't explain too much.
"After I woke up, I sent someone to look for you, but the news I got at that time was that you had left."
Zhou Zimo sighed softly, "I looked for you later, but I couldn't find you after a long time."
"I have already told Mu Yuchen and Su Chen and asked someone to leave a message for them."
"I know, they told me later when I woke up, and asked me to thank you for saving my life."
Zhou Zimo replied silently.
"I'm just doing my duty. At that time, I would choose to save anyone. I think you should do the same."
Qin Su said and turned to look at him, with a rare smile on his lips.
It seemed that he could understand her eyes, and Zhou Zimo also smiled and said nothing.
