Chapter V 071: The road is your choice, who will love you
＊＊＊＊
The wind and snow on New Year's Eve began to get heavier in the second half of the night, and the so-called New Year's flavor was completely blown away by the night wind on the side of the highway. Compared to the warmth of thousands of lights, the Audi car parked on the side of the highway seemed very dark.
Somewhat lonely and desolate.
When the smoking man reached for his cigarette again, he found that the last cigarette in the box had already been smoked.
The emptiness he felt between his fingers made him couldn't help but reach out and throw the empty cigarette case out of the car window, with a hint of cruelty from his heart.
I don't need you anymore!
Nie Zhanyun, I don’t need you anymore!
He picked up the cigarette butt from the ashtray and pinched it between his fingers, crushing it into little bits of powder, while staring firmly in the direction ahead.
Sugar, you're going to need me, soon!
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
What would you do if I disagreed?
If I don't agree--
If I don't agree--
Shu Ran, who was awakened from his sleep, opened his eyes wide and looked at the light above his head as if his pupils had lost focus.
The voice in her dream lingered in her mind for a long time, giving her the illusion that what happened last night was not real and that she was dreaming?
The light in the eyes slowly gathered and returned to its original position. Outside the window were the flashing fireworks and the sound of firecrackers. The sound lasted all night. Jiahe was different from the urban area of D City. Private setting off of fireworks and firecrackers was prohibited in the urban area.
, but here, because of the strong customs, every household will set off fireworks in the early morning. It just depends on the time. Because the time is not uniform, there are intermittent firecrackers all night long.
Boom.
Shu Ran sat up from the bed. Her first reaction was to look at her bedside. She didn't see anything unusual so she looked at the door. Seeing that it was still locked but not locked, she couldn't help but let out a heavy breath.
When her nerves returned to normal, she heard a slight sound, which should be the sound of mahjong playing in the next room.
Shu Ran couldn't help frowning and found that her hands were cold. Then she belatedly discovered that the air conditioner was not turned on last night, and she was restless in her sleep. She lifted up the quilt and exposed her hands, which made her feel cold.
At night, no wonder my hands feel cold to the bone while dreaming.
Shu Ran moved her hands, rubbed her wrists with her hands, and sat up from the bed. While rubbing her hands, she accidentally touched her wrist. The pain came numbly and slowly. She took a breath and looked down before she realized it.
His wrist turned a little blue, which shows how hard Nie Zhanyun squeezed it at that time.
She got off the bed and turned on the air conditioner. It would take time to warm up the room. She walked to the window in her slippers and stared at the fireworks exploding in the sky outside the window, her thoughts drifting far away.
Another year!
Last night was the time to watch the New Year's Eve, and there were a lot of people at home. Grandpa is an elder in the community. There are many people who come to visit during the holidays. Grandma was busy greeting the guests, but she couldn't help much.
A large group of people were sitting in the living room watching the Spring Festival Gala, and she was pulled on the sofa to watch together. However, she never stayed up until midnight. The reason was not because she could not endure it physically, but because she didn't know who mentioned Shang.
Qingwen mentioned in laughter that he saw the two of them hugging each other at the intersection of the community just now.
Shu Ran knew that they didn't mean any harm. The neighbors in this community had a harmonious relationship. Everyone would actively help with any family's weddings and weddings, and no family had any secrets that they couldn't tell. Therefore, once it was mentioned, everyone became interested and pulled her along.
I asked questions, my words were full of concern, and some people who came late went to the mahjong room specially opened on the second floor, not to play mahjong, but to see people!
Yes, Shang Qingwen played mahjong at her house all night!
Shu Ran stood at the window and stretched out her hands to cover her face tightly. Less than ten minutes after she left his car last night, almost as soon as she put her foot down, he followed her in. She was stunned.
, but the people in the room seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time. The uncle from the next door family went downstairs and took him to the second floor. He said that he had been waiting for him for a long time, and the mahjong circle had already been empty twice. Hurry up.
superior!
Shu then realized what she had missed after being dragged away by Nie Zhanyun! He had entered her house before and played mahjong twice with the neighbors.
One second she was swearing to this man that if he didn't agree to divorce, she would file for divorce in the court. The next second she just entered the house, and he followed her in openly, holding a bottle of grandma in his hand.
Cough syrup as needed.
I'm afraid that no matter how strong Shu Ran's mentality was, it would be shattered by such an unexpected scene. Every time she entered the mahjong room last night, she couldn't help but want to pick up the mahjong on the table and throw it at his face, but
When he raised his face, he took the orange segment on her plate that everyone said was sour and put it into his mouth, saying it was sweet!
Shu Ran didn't sleep well all night. To be precise, it was only around four o'clock in the morning, so it couldn't be said to be a whole night.
She twisted her neck and exhaled in discomfort. When she walked to the door and opened it, she heard the mahjong machine next door ringing again. Her heart skipped a beat. Had these people really been playing all night? She couldn't help but walked towards the door, and
She didn't intend to knock on the door, but she heard the door lock ring, the door opened, and a faint smell of smoke floated in the room. She couldn't help but frown, and then heard someone in the room shout, "Of course, if you don't come again,
, your boyfriend has lost everything!"
The corners of Shu Ran's mouth twitched, and her eyes couldn't help but look towards the seat where Shang Qingwen was sitting. She saw that he was sitting leisurely on the chair, raising his face to look at her, with a trace of helplessness flashing in his eyes when the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
Before Shu Ran said anything, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Of course, I really almost lost everything!"
"It's unlucky to lose as a first-year junior high school student!" The uncle sitting aside smiled and pointed to the seat next to Shang Qingwen, "Come on, of course, come and sit here. Maybe when you come,
He's lucky, as my family said when he was a kid, Ran Ran has a prosperous husband, come and sit down quickly, otherwise Qing Wen will really lose all his money later, and you'll have to pay for it!"
Shu Ran's face was a bit uncomfortable when his uncle said "a prosperous husband", and he glanced at Shang Qingwen. Shang Qingwen was lazily leaning on the back of the chair. He had taken off his coat and was only wearing a bottom-layer shirt.
Wearing a thin V-neck sweater, he felt as comfortable as if he were at home. He raised his eyes to look at her, frowning slightly, and a helpless light flashed in his eyes.
Ji Ma shuffled the cards very quickly. Shu Ran wanted to go downstairs to get something to eat and exit the room, but when she received his helpless look, she stopped abruptly and walked over to stand there.
He whispered: "I'll give you two rounds!"
The three uncles sitting around all laughed, "By the way, I haven't played cards with Ranran for a long time, let's play a round!"
Shang Qingwen stood up, maybe because he had been sitting for a long time. He stood up and took a deep breath, twisting his stiff neck. When he sat down comfortably, he didn't even look back, and just whispered,
"If I win, it's mine, if I lose, it's yours!"
Shang Qingwen's expression was slightly startled, then he laughed and responded in a low voice: "Okay!"
The warm voice that floated to her ears made Shu Ran couldn't help but tilt her face, and quickly turned her mind to mahjong to avoid the embarrassment of blushing and heartbeating.
When Shang Qingwen got up, he went out. When he came back, Shu Ran had already played a round. He was lucky and won a small sum. When Shang Qingwen came in, the people in the room began to laugh jokingly, "Look at it.
, take a look, I’ll just say Ran Ran has a prosperous husband appearance, just think you’re lucky!”
Shu Ran couldn't help but tremble when she was playing cards. Someone sat down next to her. Shang Qingwen sat next to her. She felt that there was someone beside her. She was stunned for a moment and even played a card upside down.
"Qing Wen, let me tell you, Ranran has won a fortune for you after just one round. Doesn't he have the appearance of a prosperous husband? This shows that you, kid, are blessed in this life!"
"Uncle!" Shu Ran couldn't help but widen her eyes. Could you please stop going around on this topic? What a prosperous husband?
Shang Qingwen, who was beside him, looked at Shu Ran's wrinkled little face, smiled, and nodded in approval, "Uncle is right, with Ran Ran, I am indeed blessed!"
Shu Ran touched a card and listened to the laughter in his ears. He almost lost his grip and quickly turned around and glared at Shang Qingwen. He looked at the card and said, "What are you talking about?"
Shang Qingwen felt warm in his heart when he saw her playful gesture of glaring. This little girl probably didn't know how she actually made people feel fierce when she stared. On the contrary, her big, watery eyes widened, and her fierceness was reduced sharply.
More than half of it is more playful and coquettish.
Shu Ran's luck is really good, and she has a strong card counting ability. She has never lost since she came to the table. In one game, she killed everyone, and the three uncles were so shocked that their eyes almost fell off. In the end
Shu Ran deliberately let things slip. After saving half of Shang Qingwen's capital, he lost the remaining half.
Shu Ran didn't stay at the card table for long, but went downstairs to help grandpa prepare breakfast. Grandpa and grandma got up very early every day. It was the habit of almost all elderly people to go to bed late and get up early. When he was in the kitchen, grandpa was in high spirits.
Bo/Bodi talked about the card game last night. He also played a few games. The neighbors finally got together. Playing mahjong has become a friendly way to exchange feelings during holidays. On weekdays, the house is deserted.
Things get lively as soon as the New Year comes, so although Shu Ran doesn't agree with them playing mahjong all night at home, looking at the warm and hospitable joyful expressions of her grandparents, she thinks that maybe this way of keeping up the New Year's Eve is quite good!
In less than half an hour, there was a sound of footsteps in the stairwell. The people coming down looked at Grandpa Ran at the kitchen door, smiled and thanked them and left. Grandpa Ran sent them out. When he came back, he looked at Shu Ran who was cooking glutinous rice balls in the kitchen.
He quickly scooped up a small bowl and urged her to serve it.
Shu Ran frowned, Grandpa Ran pulled her and whispered: "Thankfully Qingwen blocked me last night, otherwise how could I have time to rest as an old man? Your third uncle, second uncle and uncle are famous
He is very addicted to playing cards. Once he sits on the card table, he will not get off the table easily. Fortunately, Qingwen stopped him! You quickly send it up and let him eat and sleep. He didn't even take two bites of food last night. Today,
It’s almost dawn, and people will come to visit us later to pay New Year greetings. If we don’t rest, we won’t have time to rest!”
ah?
Shu Ran was holding the bowl that grandpa had pushed in her hand. As soon as Shang Qingwen came in last night, she was indeed dragged upstairs by her second uncle. She didn't know that he hadn't even taken a few bites of the meal. No wonder she gave it to him later.
He ate the sour oranges with gusto!
At Grandpa's urging, Shu Ran went upstairs with the small bowl of glutinous rice balls and walked to the door of the guest room. The door of the guest room was not closed. She walked over cautiously and caught a glimpse of the man sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. It seemed that he was
Staring at the mahjong tiles all night will make your eyes sore!
She walked over slowly and quietly placed the small bowl of glutinous rice balls on the coffee table aside. She was about to turn around and leave her hand when he reached out and gently held it. Her hand trembled and she looked at him in confusion.
When she opened her eyes, the bloodshot eyes were clearly visible, and the expression on her face was quite tired. When the hand on her wrist softened, a hoarse voice rang out, "It's been a long time since I stayed up late. I'm really exhausted!"
If it hadn't been for listening to what grandpa said downstairs just now, Shu Ran would definitely have said that he deserved it!
But Shu Ran couldn't say anything at this time. She just took her hand back and pointed at the bowl of glutinous rice balls on the coffee table, "Eat it, it's hot!" After Shu Ran said that, she walked out.
"Did you make it?" Shang Qingwen's voice holding the bowl sounded behind him. He picked up the small bowl with great interest and scooped up a round white glutinous rice ball with a small spoon.
Shu Ran didn't even look back and said to him, "No!" After saying that, she closed the door. If she knew that the glutinous rice balls were specially cooked for him, she would not have made them.
Shang Qingwen stared at the glutinous rice ball in the small spoon, lowered his head and took a small bite. He never liked sweets and felt that sometimes eating sweet things would really make him feel better.
He lowered his eyes and smiled, eating bite after bite. Within a few minutes, the bedroom door was pushed open again by Shu Ran.
"What do you mean by the money you put on my desk?"
Shang Qingwen had just finished eating a glutinous rice dumpling. When he raised his face, he looked at her harmlessly, "Didn't you say that if you win, it's yours, if you lose, it's mine?"
Shu Ran raised her eyebrows and glared, "Did you win? I calculated correctly when I left that I lost half of it!"
Shang Qingwen scooped up another glutinous rice ball, took a small bite, and nodded, "Well, I won it back later!"
ah?
Shu Ran looked shocked. Wasn't this guy extremely unlucky? She had only been cooking glutinous rice balls for only ten minutes, how could he win so much in one go?
Seemingly seeing the puzzled expression on her face, Shang Qingwen chuckled lightly, "You did feel better after sitting there. What the second uncle said makes sense!"
Shu Ran met his meaningful eyes and gritted her teeth. She immediately felt like she had been deceived. How could this guy be unlucky? He did it on purpose. He did it on purpose!!
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊Gorgeous dividing line＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
The first day of the Lunar New Year is actually the first good weather in the year. The snow fell lightly last night and there was only a thin layer on the ground. After all, Shu Ran didn’t have time to catch up on sleep. He had to meet those people early in the morning.
The embarrassing situation last night taught Shu Ran a lesson for the little ones who came to ask for candies and rice cakes. She had already stuffed all the candies in her bag in advance, and she liked to stand behind the door.
As soon as she heard a swarm of small steps running over, she poked her head out from behind the door, placed a plate with various candies and rice cakes in front of everyone like magic, and gave it to the youngest in a burst of snatching.
The little guy stuffed a full bag.
Shu Ran had a great time playing this kind of game. After ten o'clock in the morning, the little guys asking for sweets left with satisfaction. Shu Ran then put away the fruit plate and accidentally caught a glimpse of the open window on the second floor.
, she wondered if she had accidentally opened it. It was so cold. When she opened the window, the room was freezing at night. She took a few steps back and looked up, and saw the slender figure outside the window. She didn't know he was there.
After standing there for a long time, when Shu Ran raised her head, he looked down at her. When her eyes met, the corners of his lips curled up, and his eyes were filled with starry smiles.
Seeing such an elegant and gentle smile, Shu Ran was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, his heart was beating inexplicably, and he strode into the living room as if he was running away.
The flavor of the New Year is relatively strong in the small places near Jiahe City, at least much stronger than in big cities. For example, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. There is no custom of visiting relatives and friends on the first day of the Lunar New Year here. It usually starts on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
, the first day of the lunar month happens to be the first day of the new year, so the habit of going to the market on the 14th or 70th day of the lunar month has always existed. In today's big cities, such a market is a microcosm of the most lively and simple life.
At this time, Shu Ran, who was standing at the end of the street, looked around. It was crowded with people, and there were also the noisy whistles of passing vehicles, battery cars, and bicycles. In short, the scene was more than just a word "garbled", Shu Ran
I was overcome with regret. At the most critical moment, the person behind me leaned over and asked with a faint smile, "Why don't you leave?"
Walk? How to walk? Can you walk on two legs?
Shu Ran turned around and looked at the man who was sitting in the back seat with his legs bent and still looking long. For a moment, she felt so angry that she was about to go crazy. She was just going to buy a fresh fish for her grandpa. In fact, she usually rode a battery-powered bicycle and it was very fast.
It can be reached, but today, there was a big man on the back of the short electric car. The moment Shang Qingwen got on it, her heart trembled three times for her little Emma electric car. She was really afraid of him.
The car body fell apart as soon as I sat down. What I was worried about was that the battery would be overwhelmed and I would have to rely on physical strength to ride back when the battery ran out. This is not as light as a bicycle, and riding back is still a physical job!
"Get down and walk over!" Shu Ran made a decisive decision, and Shang Qingwen got out of the car. He was tall and attracted people's attention when sitting in such a short car. When he got off the car, his tall figure was also in the crowd.
Standing out from the crowd, it was particularly eye-catching. Shu Ran parked the car at a parking place, locked the car and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you waiting here, or -"
"With you!" Shang Qingwen said, standing in front of her, "Let's go!"
Shu Ran then turned around and walked towards the farmer's market. My grandparents liked shopping here the most. In their words, it was cheap. The most important thing was that they could meet a lot of old friends on the street. It was this kind of atmosphere that they liked.
After walking for a long time, Shu Ran felt that agreeing to Shang Qingwen to bring him here was a wrong decision, because——
"Of course, are you taking your boyfriend out shopping?"
"Hey, Qingwen, let's go shopping with Ranran!"
"..."
Shu Ran had the urge to go back before she squeezed into the farmer's market. Shang Qingwen was calmer than her, nodding and smiling at everyone who greeted them. After a series of greetings, Shu Ran's face did not look good.
Looking at the man following behind him, he couldn't help but said: "Aren't you busy?"
What she actually wanted to say was, when will you leave?
This year's Chinese New Year was really an unexpected one for her. When she called Lin Xuejing last night, she said that Shang Qingwen was also here. Lin Xuejing said "Ah" for a long time without responding. After a long time, she screamed, "See you all."
You’re a parent!”
Shang Qingwen, who was behind her, reached out to give her a hand, avoiding the approaching electric car, and said with a low smile: "Someone told me that good bosses are the most leisurely!"
Shu Ran was surprised, the original words were spoken by her!
"Then you -" Shu Ran was about to say something else, but Shang Qingwen had already looked over there, pointed over there and asked in a low voice: "Of course, what is that?"
Shu Ran's thoughts were interrupted by his sudden words. Following the direction he pointed, he saw a lot of people gathered around the stall, including men, women, old and young. The old man in the middle was waving his long chopsticks deftly from time to time.
Stirring it in the small pot, she looked over and couldn't help but laugh, "That's fried tofu, an authentic snack here! Do you want to try it?"
After Shu Ran said this, she realized that it was the first time she had said such a long sentence to him since last night. What she meant was that she wanted to eat it herself, not that she was asking for him.
Shu Ran was feeling annoyed in his mind about his abnormality, but his hand was held by him, and he strode over to avoid the crowd.
Shu Ran felt that she had come to this stall to eat fried tofu so many times that she couldn't even remember it. It still had a small square table and two long stools, and the old man who fried the tofu was still the same old man who served the dried tofu.
The bucket is still white, and the small pot is placed on a small tricycle. He picks up the stacks of tofu cubes from the bucket with his hands, counts one and throws one into the pot, ten pieces for one dollar, and throws in
Fry it in a pan, take it out, drain the oil, put it into a small bowl covered with a small plastic bag, and add it with homemade hot and sour sweet noodle sauce, and the diners can pick out the pieces with toothpicks.
"Come and sit!" Shu Ran was still looking at the old grandfather's skillful operation, as if it hadn't changed in decades. Just as she was fascinated, Shang Qingwen, who was already sitting over there, pulled her over and sat down.
Shu Ran felt that he had attracted a lot of people's attention as soon as he sat down at this small stall. Shang Qingwen saw that he was not someone who often came to this kind of place to eat. Shu Ran sat next to him and was also looked at by others.
Again, Shang Qingwen next to her behaved very naturally, picking up a toothpick and handing it to her, and also prepared tissues.
Shu Ran saw him looking at the bottle of homemade sweet noodle sauce. At this time, the fried tofu was brought up. He sprinkled the sauce on it, picked up a piece with a toothpick and handed it to Shu Ran's mouth. Shu Ran quickly turned away and lowered his head.
She picked up a piece with a toothpick and put it into her mouth. When she heard the chuckle in her ears, she stabbed the tofu in the bowl twice with the toothpick.
She thought he was just out of curiosity. After she watched him eat two pieces, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "Are you used to eating?"
Shu Ran remembered that Lin Xuejing was also curious to eat this thing when she first came here, but she only took one bite and stopped eating, saying that the taste was weird and she was not used to it.
She was curious as to why Shang Qingwen ate with gusto.
Shang Qingwen was playing with a toothpick in his hand. When he lowered his eyes, his eyes were a little wandering. He smiled and said, "It still tastes like this!"
With a smile, "You can't eat this kind of thing abroad!"
Shu Ran quite agrees with this statement. Indeed, the authentic snacks she missed most during her three years abroad were only eaten after she returned to China for three years. Think about the unpalatable burgers and pizzas she ate in a foreign land.
La, those three years were spent with me thinking about the dishes and snacks from my hometown even in my dreams.
"I see you are quite good at cooking!" Shu Ran lowered her head and ate, and couldn't help but say what she had always wanted to ask. In fact, Shang Qingwen was really a strange man she had ever met.
However, with her grandfather's precedent, it was not uncommon for a man to cook. But given his status, he cooked for himself every day, which she couldn't understand.
"I'm used to it!" Shang Qingwen smiled, "I really couldn't stand the taste of those fast food, so I just made it myself! The first time I cooked, I almost blew up the kitchen!" He said with eyes filled with tears.
His eyes seemed to have remembered something, and there was a deep recollection in his eyes, but this gaze quickly disappeared and sank into the depths of his eyes.
Shu Ran, who had his head buried, was stunned for a moment, then raised his face to look at Shang Qingwen, who was smiling, "When?"
Shang Qingwen didn't seem to expect that she would ask this, and rolled his eyes, "Twenty-two years old!"
Shu Ran listened for a long time before whispering, "You're quite happy!" She smiled proudly as she said that, "I'm more than ten years ahead of you, and I cooked for myself when I was five years old.
Now!" When she saw Shang Qingwen's slightly surprised look, she smiled nonchalantly, "It's just that I was a little shorter at that time, so I had to use a small stool to climb onto the stove. Fortunately, I was the first to climb up to the stove.
I didn’t blow up the kitchen like you did, I just burned the back of my hand with boiling water!”
Shu Ran wouldn't say that at that time, the house was in a mess, her parents were quarreling, and her nanny was not doing her job. Various practical reasons forced her, who was only five years old, to be hungry and have to make food by herself. Shu Tongya
She is a woman who has never touched the spring water. Ever since Shu Ran became sensible, she has never seen Shu Tongya cook a meal, and her father Ran Qidong has never entered the kitchen. Their kitchen is just a decoration.
That night she woke up so hungry that she ate some buns left by the nanny. In order to save trouble, the nanny often didn't know how to cook at night. Anyway, the host and hostess of the family would come back very late. When she came back, Xiao Shu
Although she had already fallen asleep, saving a meal also saved trouble, but neither Shu Tongya nor Ran Qidong came back that night. She woke up hungry, got up and rummaged around for something to eat, and finally rummaged and removed it.
A few buns were some pasta that needed to be cooked. She was so hungry that she learned the process of cooking noodles as demonstrated on TV, and climbed onto the stove with a stool. However, the memory of that night was something she would never forget.
When she accidentally splashed boiling water, she blocked it with her hand and burned the back of her hand. She endured the pain and opened the door and knocked on the neighbor's door.
Five years old! She was only five years old that year!
Shu Ran lowered his head and poked the tofu with a toothpick, and his eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist. He inadvertently thought of the unforgettable past when he was a child, and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. He was still thinking about that night in his mind.
A little girl cried and knocked on her neighbor's door asking for help.
Can't forget, can't forget!
Shang Qingwen, who was beside him, stared at her for a long time. She said it very easily. She just burned her hand with boiling water, but what he saw in her eyes was a flash of depression and sadness. He put down the toothpick in his hand,
He reached out and took the hand that was on her knee. When Shu Ran was surprised, he took her hand and looked at it carefully. He stared at the back of her hand for a long time and asked softly when he raised his eyes,
"At that time, it hurt a lot, right?"
Shu Ran had no time to hide her misty eyes, a hint of astonishment flashed across her face, and when he held her hand, the tears that kept rolling in her eyes almost rolled out, her eyes
Avoiding looking at him, she retracted her hand, took out her wallet and put it on the table, "Boss, please pay!"
Why did she suddenly tell him this? Shu Ran sniffed and suppressed the abnormal emotions suppressed deep in her heart. When she paid and left the stall, she heard Shang Qingwen's cell phone ringing.
She stood aside and waited for him to finish answering the phone. The call was very short. She looked at his brows and frowned, and couldn't help but glance in her direction. Then he whispered something and hung up the phone.
He walked over and said, "Of course, come back to City D. Your mother needs you now!"
Shu Ran's eyes froze and her heart tightened, what happened to her?
Shu Ran, who hurried home from the street, told her grandparents about the situation. Her mobile phone was thrown far away by Nie Zhanyun last night and broke. That's why Shu Tongya didn't call her. Her grandparents also
Knowing that Shu Tongya remarried and joined the Qin family, they never asked how they were living in the Qin family.
When Shu Ran hurriedly packed up and went downstairs, Shang Qingwen had already driven out. He came here last night by taking the subway, but because he wanted to be more convenient, he had someone prepare one here in advance.
Just a car.
The two of them took a car to the subway station. The expressway was still unblocked. Taking the subway back was the most convenient and fastest way. As soon as they got on the subway, Shu Ran couldn't help but wonder if Uncle Qin's condition was abnormal.
When Shu Tongya called that night, she happened to hear the nurse asking Shu Tongya to get the medicine.
Shang Qingwen, who was next to him, hung up the phone, met her expectant gaze, and comforted: "Of course, it's okay!"
Shu Ran shook her head, "Tell me the specific situation. My mother is very stubborn. Even if she breaks a tooth, she will swallow it by herself. She will not show weakness in front of outsiders. She has never
I mentioned Uncle Qin's illness before, and I want to know if Uncle Qin's illness has relapsed again, is it serious? How is he doing now?"
Shu Ran became nervous and became incoherent. Shang Qingwen looked at her slightly changed expression and said with some hesitation: "I have inquired specifically, and he is in the rescue room now! He is not out of danger yet!"
Shu Ran's heart suddenly tightened, and she murmured in a low voice, "Uncle Qin loves her so much, he won't leave her alone!" Shu Ran suddenly turned to look out the car window, and reached out to pat her with a somewhat anxious expression.
Car window, "How long until we get to city D?"
"Of course!" Shang Qingwen, who was beside her, grabbed her and hugged her tightly, "We still have an hour and a half to reach City D, so it's already the fastest!"
A string of tears rolled down Shu Ran's pale face, "I, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it in time, I'm afraid that I--"
"Of course!" Shang Qingwen hugged her, held her little face with one big hand, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid!" It seems that every time she faces such a thing, she
The fragility of any child can't help but be revealed, just like the last time grandma was suddenly hospitalized, her nerves were tense all the way, and the stubborn she finally couldn't help crying when she stood outside the ward door. Faced with the problem of her parents,
She is like a weird child who never shows how much she cares in front of them, but actually cares more than anyone else in her heart!
Shang Qingwen contacted Guan Yang when he got on the subway. As soon as he got off the subway, Guan Yang had already driven his car and was waiting at the station entrance. Shu Ran looked at Guan Yang who drove over and felt a little sorry. It was the New Year's Day.
As soon as she got into the car, she said softly, "I'm so sorry for troubling you!"
Shu Ran's little move made Guan Yang stunned for a moment. Guan Yang glanced at Young Master Shang and smiled meaningfully, "Madam, don't be polite, I'm not busy either!"
Shu Ran knew that what he said was also polite. How could anyone not be busy during the New Year? Shang Qingwen, who was sitting next to her, looked at her apologetic expression, leaned over and whispered: "Guan Yang's parents and relatives are all abroad. He is indeed
not busy!"
Shu Ran didn't expect that he would explain to her. After hearing what he said, the guilt in her heart became much lighter. However, Shang Qingwen came too close to her, which made her a little uncomfortable, so she leaned to the side.
.
Seeing her move further away, Shang Qingwen's dark eyes flashed and he slowly sat back.
The journey to the hospital was not far, just because many road sections were under traffic control during the Spring Festival, and there were more cars on New Year's Day, so it was already half an hour before they arrived at the hospital.
Shu Ran was about to run upstairs as soon as he got off the car, but Shang Qingwen grabbed his arm and said with a deep eyebrow: "Slow down, you don't know which operating room he is in, follow me, I will take you there!"
"You know?" Shu Ran was so confused at this time that she didn't think about anything else. She just wanted to get off the car and run upstairs. As for how to find Shu Tongya, she had forgotten that her mobile phone was broken.
Can no longer be contacted.
"Follow me!" Shang Qingwen got out of the car, whispered something to Guan Yang, and then pulled Shu Ran towards the hospital building.
Outside the ICU door, Qin Yufei was standing at the door, pacing back and forth anxiously. He didn't know who he was calling, and his tone was a little irritable. The last sentence was, "Come or not, it's up to you!" After saying that, he hung up the phone fiercely.
When he turned around, he looked at Shu Ran who was hurriedly walking towards this direction. His expression softened a little and he went to meet him.
"Of course, you're here!" Qin Yufei said as he glanced at Shang Qingwen, who was following Shu Ran, and nodded towards him as a greeting.
"How's Uncle Qin? Where's my mother?" Shu Ran looked around but didn't see Shu Tongya, and couldn't help but feel anxious.
Qin Yufei looked worried, "Dad is still in the ICU under observation, Aunt Ya couldn't bear it and fainted, now rest in the lounge!"
Shu Ran's heart tightened, "Take me to see her!"
In the lounge, as soon as Shu Ran came in, she saw Shu Tongya sleeping on the bed. Her face was a little pale, and she could see a strong look of tiredness. Shu Ran walked over and stood beside the bed, watching her sleep from time to time.
She frowned tightly, and her heart throbbed with pain every time she frowned.
"Aunt Ya has been taking care of dad in the hospital during this time. It's been really hard for her during this time!" Qin Yufei walked in and said softly.
I don't know if it was because of the long-suppressed injustice in her heart, but Shu Ran's inner anger was activated when she looked at Shu Tongya who was lying on the hospital bed. She turned to look at Qin Yufei, "Where are your Qin family members?
?Is there anyone left in your Qin family?"
She knew how beautiful Shu Tongya looked on the outside, but what kind of dire straits she was in. Shu Ran knew better than anyone else. Ruan Xin was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the so-called relatives of the Qin family had dinner together that night.
She could clearly see the faces of those people. Such a big thing happened, and they were the only two people in the hospital?
Qin Yufei was startled, with a hint of helpless embarrassment on his face, "Of course, they -"
Shu Ran frowned when she saw Qin Yufei's hesitant expression. She had already seen Qin Yufei's cowardice, otherwise Ruan Xin would not be so rampant at home. She saw Qin Yufei's cowardice.
Unable to speak any more, she turned around and took a deep breath. When she turned around, she found that Shu Tongya had woken up on the bed and was looking at her with her eyes open. After staring for a long time, a look of distress appeared on her pale face.
Come smile.
"My daughter, are you feeling sorry for me?"
Shu Tongya's voice was a little hoarse. When she said this, her face was calm and her eyes were shining with luster.
Shu Ran's eyes turned red, she turned away and pretended to be calm, gritted her teeth and said loudly: "You chose the road yourself, who wants to feel sorry for you?" As she said this, her body began to tremble due to the fluctuation of emotions, and she turned around.
She covered her face and ran out of the ward. Shu Tongya, who was left on the hospital bed, burst into tears in an instant!
My daughter, how come you are just like me, with the same sharp mouth and soft heart, the same cold face and soft heart!

Shu Ran ran out of the room and leaned against the wall at the door. She caught a glimpse of Shang Qingwen standing at the door. She hurriedly lowered her head to hide her red and painful eyes, but she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and wanted to cry. Why does it happen every time?
Whenever she was in the most embarrassing state, he would see her, and all her embarrassment and weakness would be exposed in front of him.
Shu Ran moved away and wanted to leave for a while. When she saw Shang Qingwen walking over to block her, she was about to reach out and push her when she heard a rush of footsteps and the sound of someone arguing in the corridor.
"Ruan Xin, stop, do you hear me?" It was Qin Yufei's suppressed voice.
"What's wrong with asking her to help? Who can help the Qin family now? Qin Yufei, please let me go!" Ruan Xin's scream attracted the attention of many people in the corridor, including Shu Ran.
Monk Qingwen.
"Ruan Xin, shut up, you-"
Ruan Xin screamed and ran towards this side, pushed Qin Yufei away, and shouted when she saw Shu Ran, "Shu Ran, didn't you marry Shang Qingwen? Please help the Qin family,
The Qin family is almost finished!"
