A philosopher once said that the inevitable gap between life and death is the process in between, also called life.
Whether a person lives a wonderful or mediocre life depends entirely on the path he has taken and what he depicts on the empty rice paper...
Gong Tao nodded as if he understood, and said, "Grandpa, uncle, and aunt are just people who live wonderful lives."
Gong Xue showed a sad smile. Gong Tao said it well, but the result is not something ordinary people can bear. If time goes by and there is a chance to save the deceased relatives, then she will say no to fate without hesitation.
!
That night, the night sky was surprisingly beautiful.
The stars in the sky seemed to have turned into living elves, blinking at her constantly, vivid and shining. Gong Xue believed that grandpa, father and mother were incarnated in that eternal galaxy, using other
A way of love lights the way for her future...
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the starlight was getting dimmer. At this time, a bright new star rose in the south. This star was surprisingly bright. She had never seen it before, but when she first saw it, she felt inexplicably familiar and familiar.
kind...
Gong Xue's black pupils lit up, and instantly, her eyes seemed to be filled with thousands of stars, and her eyes were filled with dazzling, alluring heartbeats.
Her fingertips subconsciously held the bullet casing on her chest.
plateau..
is it you?
It was you who sensed my sadness and longing and came to see me, right?
When I was stunned, a dazzling white light suddenly passed through the dark night sky...
Shooting stars! She saw shooting stars!
A shooting star emitting beautiful light soared from the south and quickly slid towards her direction.
Although she didn't believe in making wishes, at the moment when the meteor streaked across the sky, Gong Xue still closed her eyes devoutly and silently made a wish for the distant plateau, hoping that he would be safe and healthy, and that they could be together forever.
Hands and sons carry the old...
When she opened her eyes again, she found that the shooting star had disappeared, and even the star that was shining in the south just now could no longer be seen.
She was stunned for a moment, thinking she had a visual impairment. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the night sky again, and found that there was really no visual impairment!
Is she dreaming, or is she hallucinating because she is too tired?
No matter what the possibility was, it was difficult to cover up the loss piling up in her chest. It was like a wall that suddenly rose up, blocking her and making it difficult to breathe.
When the hands of the clock pointed to six o'clock in the morning, Gong Xue, who had stayed up all night, supported the coffin table and stood up slowly.
It's time for grandpa to hit the road.
The morning light outside the window cannot keep the silence of the night, the dawn has come unstoppably...
"Ring---------" The harsh ringtone broke the silence of the Gong family..
Gong Tao opened his sleepy eyes and called out in confusion: "Sister..."
Gong Xue patted him and said, "You can sleep a little longer and I'll pick it up." Afraid of disturbing Aunt Tian, she dragged her stiff and numb legs to the phone and answered it as usual.
"Hello, I am Gong Xue."
There was a rustling noise coming from the receiver, like someone talking or breathing. If you listened carefully, there seemed to be a faint sound of...crying?
Crying?!
Her eyelids twitched and she clenched the phone with her fingers. "Hello, I'm Gong Xue. Can you hear me?" She repeated her greeting again, but there was still noisy and confusing noise on the other side of the phone. She was about to continue.
When asked, suddenly, there was a click, and the world became pure.
The other party disconnected the phone first.
Who is it?
Normally, she would have laughed it off and dismissed it as a boring harassing phone call, but today, this mysterious and unsettling phone call made her suddenly want to investigate...
Gong Tao got up and poked his head toward the living room, "Sister, who is it?" He saw that Gong Xue didn't move for a long time and didn't say a word, so he thought something had happened.
While Gong Xue called back the switchboard, she said to Gong Tao: "No one said anything! I'm afraid I dialed the wrong number! I'll ask the switchboard to see where the number is."
The answer from the switchboard was very dedicated and refused to say where the call came from. Later, Gong Xue got angry and said that she would sue them for lax censorship and allowing outside calls to harass the residents of the military compound. The switchboard then checked the incoming call and said:
"The call just now came from Military Region B."
"Military Region B?" Gong Xue carefully searched for people who had dealt with Military Region B in the past and found that only Shi Jingtian was likely to call during this time.
She thought it was Shi Jingtian, and she couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking that he might call again, she washed up on the first floor and sat by the phone in the living room to wait.
Aunt Tian made breakfast and went upstairs to wake up Gong Xue's uncle and aunt. Gong Tao had also washed up. Like Gong Xue, he was wearing pure black mourning clothes. "Sister, it's time to eat."
Gong Xue raised her eyes and smiled slightly at the delicate Gong Tao, "Well, you eat first, I'll wait for a call from my classmate."
The wait lasted for half an hour. Uncle and aunt arrived late. Zhang Suqin directed Aunt Tian to reheat the rice, and then dragged Gong Tao over. While glancing at Gong Xue with a wary look, she muttered something in her son's ear.
say something.
Gong Tao looked bored, but because there were too many guests at home, it was difficult to get angry. When he finally broke away from his mother, he turned around and saw a group of people standing in the hall.
"Brother Fei!" Gong Tao couldn't help but rushed towards Xie in surprise.
"Stop!" Xie Fei held down Gong Tao to stop his overly enthusiastic movements, and then looked at the bleak and thin figure in the living room, "How is your sister?" The Xie family has been experiencing frequent changes recently. He last night
I just rushed back from my hometown after attending my uncle's funeral. This morning, I called Fan Linsong and Zhang Zikang to go to Gong's house to help.
Gong Tao looked sad, with a hint of distress in his brows, "My sister has stayed up for three days and three nights without sleeping. Look at her, can a gust of wind blow her away!"
Xie Fei chuckled, "Your sister won't be able to survive another three days and three nights, believe it or not?"
Gong Tao touched his nose, smiled shyly, and said nothing.
Gong Xue also saw Xie Fei and the others at this time. She walked a few steps quickly, came over to say hello to them, and then grabbed Xie Fei, "You have Shi Jingtian's contact information, right? Can you tell me?" She was afraid.
Shi Jingtian knew about his grandfather's death, so he did something to fight against his parents.
Xie Fei's eyes were wandering, and he couldn't tell Gong Xue intuitively. But it was impossible not to say anything, because she had already touched his mobile phone regardless of the difference between men and women. Xie Fei purred twice, protected his important parts, and protested: "Hey, Xiaoxue
, where are you touching!"
Only then did Gong Xue realize how unethical her behavior was, but she was really anxious. She even wanted to contact Su Lianlian, who was preparing for the college entrance examination, to ask for Shi Jingtian's number, but Su Lianlian turned off her phone.
