The three of us drove in different shifts along the way, and the initial excitement was completely exhausted by the seemingly endless highway. I held the steering wheel in my hand, and I didn’t know what I was thinking in my mind. I was just looking forward to reaching my destination as soon as possible.
The only thing I am looking forward to is what Linda and Jason will look like. I think they should also have the same expectations for my appearance.
Finally, under the illumination of the car lights, the airport expressway sign came into view. After another two or three kilometers, we entered Yingbin Avenue, which meant we arrived at our destination, Hanzhou Airport.
A group of three people walked out of the parking lot and went to the international arrivals terminal to wait for Jason and Linda's plane to land. I heard from Qiu Yue that Jason and Linda met in Bangkok and spent some time there.
Let's take a break and come here together.
Di Xiaobo had already told Qiu Yue and me about the situation at Wang Youyi's club on the way. Their club is nominally a tea garden, located in a tea village on the edge of East Lake. Now Wang Youyi has been declared a vegetative state by the hospital, and the club
Of course the people inside understand that Wang Youyi will never wake up, and are discussing with his family members when to stop supporting Wang Youyi.
Of course, this is not a matter of cost, but the club hopes to put him to rest as soon as possible, and he also has an explanation. In the sub-world, the introducer who took Wang Youyi to take the assessment is named Wu Yajun, and he has been there since he came back.
Wang Youyi was being cared for in the hospital. His physical condition and mental state were not very good, and he refused to leave no matter how much others tried to persuade him. The club simply left him alone, but sent extra people to take turns taking care of him.
The sweet voice of the announcer came from the airport broadcast, indicating that the flight from Bangkok to Hanzhou was about to arrive. Qiu Yue took out the pre-prepared pick-up sign with their names on it from her bag. Di Xiaobo and I stood beside her
Behind me, we started waiting at the passenger exit.
I stretched my neck and tried to look for them in the crowd. Although I didn't know what they looked like, I was still quite familiar with their frequency fields.
Two people in the crowd finally caught my attention, one tall and one short. The taller one was a young man with brown hair, a light beard, and a pair of excited eyes in the deep-set eye sockets, looking here.
Come over. He immediately pulled the girl next to him who was also looking around, and the girl also looked towards us.
The girl had long blond hair hanging down her shoulders, and a fair face with two big sapphire-like eyes. After seeing us, she also waved excitedly to this side. It must be them - Jason and Linda
.
Qiu Yue and I also waved to them, and Di Xiaobo beside us waved his arms high to signal them to come quickly. When they came out of the exit, we immediately greeted them.
Jason opened his arms, rushed towards me and hugged me. This guy was almost two heads taller than me. His powerful arms hugged me tightly and said repeatedly: "Hello, Wan. Nice to see you again. It's
been a long time.”
Linda and Qiu Yue hugged each other and were busy greeting each other.
I was a little confused. I could roughly understand what Jason meant, but my English was very poor and my pronunciation was not accurate. I stuttered and replied: "Hello, Jason. I am
very glad to see you again.You have a good time in Bangkok?”
Jason replied: "Yes, we play very well."
After saying that, he put his arms around his shoulders and looked me up and down. Linda, who had already greeted Qiu Yue and Di Xiaobo, also opened her arms and gave me a big hug, and kissed me affectionately.
As warm as a relative whom I haven't seen for a long time.
Linda is about the same height as me. She put her hands on my shoulders and shook me, saying: "Meet you st. Do you have a good time. Wan."
Qiu Yue on the side looked at us with a complicated expression.
I stuttered again and replied: "Hello, Linda. I live very good, also very glad to see you again."
I don’t even know if the grammar and vocabulary used are correct, let alone whether they can understand it.
However, it seemed pretty good, and they should have understood. At this time, I began to miss the days in the Yuan Realm and the Second Realm. At least there was no barrier to communication between us. Unlike now, we have to connect
It's really troublesome to say it with guesswork.
Fortunately, Qiu Yue and Di Xiaobo's English is pretty good. There were five of us, and we chatted while walking. In fact, I chatted, guessed, and gestured at the same time. It was very hard. It made them laugh, which really embarrassed me.
, I regret not learning English well. It seems that my English level is only at the level of CET-4, and the rest is of no use, alas.
Since I can’t speak English well, I’ll be responsible for driving. The big guy Jason sits in the passenger seat, and the other three people sit in the back. Fortunately, this is a seven-seat SUV, and it’s more than enough space for the luggage of the five of us. Depressing
Unfortunately, they spoke too fast. By the time I thought about it and organized my sentences, they had already moved on to the next topic, and I could only giggle beside them.
I looked at a few cheerful people in the rearview mirror and asked loudly: "Where are we going now? It's already so late. We have to find a place to eat, and then find a place to stay."
Qiu Yue picked up her mobile phone, fiddled with it a few times, and said: "Look at WeChat, the location has been sent to you. I have made reservations for meals and hotels, so you can just navigate according to the address above. Don't disturb our chat, I hate it.
.”
Speechless, still speechless. Jason next to me saw my helplessness, patted my shoulder, shrugged, and said in blunt Chinese: "No way, I look like a woman."
"Oh, my man, don't you know a few words in Chinese? Then don't talk to me in English, just use Chinese, okay?" I said excitedly. Jason spread his hands, looked at me and shook his head.
, said: "I don't understand."
"Okay, then you'd better talk to them." I waved my hand behind me, which made them laugh again.
In this way, we walked and laughed all the way, had dinner, and checked into the hotel. After Di Xiaobo and Wu Yajun got in touch, they decided on the time and place to meet tomorrow. We went back to our rooms and rested.
Early the next morning, the five of us packed up and drove directly to the hospital. Because Wu Yajun and the others were all in the hospital now, as was Wang Youyi. To be precise, Wang Youyi's body was in the hospital.
The solemn corridor, the closed ward, the grieving family members, the distressed colleagues were discussing something with two doctors in white coats. Di Xiaobo was talking to Wu Yajun, and we stood behind him with our hands down, listening.
Di Xiaobo asked softly: "Is it today?"
Wu Yajun nodded and said: "Yes, we have discussed it with the family members, and the family members have also sought the doctor's advice. The doctor is also inclined to end it. Although the family members have agreed, they still can't get over the hurdle in their hearts. This
No, the attending physician is making final confirmation with the family."
My heart was filled with sadness, and I knew in my heart that the moment Wang Youyi from the sub-realm was hit, he was no longer there. What is lying on the hospital bed now is just a simple body, no longer alive.
Facing the doctor's family members, there were still outbursts of grief. It seemed that the matter had been agreed upon. Under the leadership of Wu Yajun, we told Wang Youyi's family members that we and Wang Youyi were business friends and we came here specially to visit.
. Wang Youyi's old father had a head full of white hair. His shoulders were shaking and he held Di Xiaobo's hand, saying words of thanks. But all we could do was comfort him.
Then, we entered the ward one by one. Wang Youyi's wife sat by the bed without saying a word, stroking Wang Youyi's face with her hands, looking straight at her husband with eyes that had long since lost tears, her empty eyes filled with her infinite love.
Nostalgic. A little girl, about four or five years old, kept slapping her father's hand and murmuring: "Dad, get up and play with me."
My eyes instantly overflowed with tears. I lowered my head and wiped my tears. Qiu Yue and Linda were also trying their best not to cry. Qiu Yue silently patted the sad woman's shoulder, and the woman responded with a
He held Qiu Yue's hand tightly, his cheek pressed against it, and the long-dried tears silently poured out of his eyes.
Linda knelt down, hugged the little girl, kissed her, then put her head in her arms and gently stroked her hair with her hands. I looked at the man I met for the first time in front of me, familiar yet unfamiliar. Dark.
His face, his hair was neatly combed, and his eyes were tightly closed under a pair of thick eyebrows. The ventilator mask had left deep marks on his face. We had fought side by side in the sub-world, but this was the first time we met here.
, and it’s the last one.
The ancient saying "It is necessary to know each other when we meet" suddenly came to mind. "How can I say that I have no clothes, I am wearing the same robe as my son?" Qin Feng whizzed past my ears, setting off a huge wave in my heart. This was a huge wave of anger.
The waves are roaring at the raging lightning in the dark clouds, hoping that one day they can submerge the boundless dark clouds, scatter the lightning that tears the sky, and give me a piece of clear water and blue sky.
The memorial service was held on the third day. After the ceremony, we declined the funeral banquet arranged by the family and left after exchanging contact information with Wu Yajun.
Driving a car along the road, five people were silent.
