Chapter Twenty-Seven: I Didn't Know This Was My Room
Linuo carefully took the sandalwood box from the doctor's hand, reached out and stroked the delicate carved patterns on the box, and looked up to meet his gaze.
"You say this box is for me?"
The doctor smiled when he saw her reaction, "I have been Anya's attending doctor for many years, and I would say that she is my patient rather than a friend. Over the years, in addition to Feng Tuo, she has talked about the most, and the next thing is to leave the promise. She would often look out the window into the sunlight and mumble to herself as she read your name. The doctor looked at Feng Tuo as he spoke.
She often said that you were born with the sun, never hurt others, and used your warmth to touch the people on the side. I was very curious about you, and I couldn't stop asking her if she had a daughter. She shook her head and let out a long sigh. I asked again, it should be a friend who has been with me for a long time. She still shook her head, then looked at me and said, although she only had a few encounters with that child, the light emitted by Zhou was forever imprinted in her heart. The smile on her face that day was the first time I had seen it in years, and I knew then that you were the girl she was talking about. ”
Linuo listened quietly to the doctor's words, and kept stroking the sandalwood box in his hand, and tears fell on it.
"Auntie, you don't know, I'm no longer the sun that can warm everyone in your mouth, no. ”
"I believe in my friends and I believe in my own eyes. Your current apathy and detachment is only because you have closed your heart. The doctor raised the corners of his mouth.
"You see, the sun is the sun after all, and it will not lose its original appearance because of the obscuration of a thick fog. Okay, my things have been delivered, so I won't waste time here, after all, there are still many patients waiting for me. ”
After the doctor finished speaking, he walked out of the ward, and Linuo walked to the side and sat down with the wooden box. Feng Yun was about to step forward, but after seeing Feng Tuo's eyes, he stopped.
Zhang Xiao stretched his waist and walked out of the cinema and looked at the time, which was still half an hour away from the agreed time. Because the place to eat is near here, he is too lazy to drive there, more at this point in time, it is really difficult to find a parking space.
Taking advantage of the hustle and bustle of the street, he reached out and took out his mobile phone from his inner pocket, the phone book only had that number, and he glanced around, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he pressed the number.
"Lily of the valley, I'm an eagle. Qi Meng sat in the van, and Zhu Yeqing on the side kept tapping on the keyboard, and the gold and silver rings were ready to go.
"We made a reservation at eight o'clock in New World, and I booked a restaurant that served very slowly, and now this order has passed, and it is almost ten o'clock after eating, so you should hurry. Even if there is a change in the middle of the way, it will take half an hour to get from here to the neighborhood where he lives, and you will have enough time to leave. Zhang Xiao cautiously said his plan.
"Understand, if the plan changes, send zero to this mobile phone number. After Qi Meng finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly, and then looked at the three people waiting on the side, "Zhu Yeqing, has the community monitoring system been done?"
"OK, absolutely no trace will be left. Zhu Yeqing replied proudly, and at the same time raised his chin to the two comrades on the side, showing off his strength. Jin Huan gave him a thumbs up, and Yin Huan pouted his lips to show that he was not surprised.
"Okay, then it's up to you. Qi Meng said to the gold ring and the silver ring, "Just in case, I will follow you in." Let's plan for the worst, if Qi Jingli suddenly comes back and blocks us in the house, you are my colleagues, uh.... The rest is improvised. ”
"Of course it's the worst-case scenario, I don't want to be stuck in the room, after all, I told him last time that I didn't keep the key to this room. Qi Meng said with some regret, so that the three people opposite also became nervous.
"OK, let's do it, let's do it quickly!" Qi Meng ordered, and the three of them stuffed the invisible earphones into their ears at the same time.
"Try the sound. Zhu Yeqing saw that they were finished, "1, 2, 3!" The three of them nodded at him at the same time.
"Bring the prepared things and go!" Qi Meng said and picked up the potted plants prepared on the side and pulled the door to get out of the car, and the gold ring and silver ring followed the things to get out of the car, and the three of them took advantage of the night to quickly walk through the community and came to the door of Pete's house.
"Captain, there is no one in the corridor now, you can rest assured that you can unlock it. Zhu Yeqing stared at the many surveillance screens, calmly reporting the situation in the vicinity.
Jin Huan listened to the quick action, took out a thin needle from his pocket, pressed it against the security door, and turned it seriously. The silver ring on the side looked around in case someone suddenly appeared. Qi Meng picked up the potted plant and came to the end of the corridor, turned left and right to find a suitable position, and asked in a low voice.
"How about Zhu Yeqing's location?"
Zhu Yeqing in the car quickly picked up another computer, tapped the keyboard a few times, and the screen was instantly displayed on the computer screen, "OK!"
Qi Meng looked at the potted plant that had been placed, and was still a little uneasy, "I still think this is too conspicuous, that kid is very alert." ”
"Captain, you can rest assured, I am still very confident in my results. There are three layers of defense set up inside, the leaves are found, the stakes are gone, the stakes are gone, and the flower pots are gone, so you can rest assured. Zhu Yeqing said as he turned on the backstage defense mechanism, "In any case, I will receive an early warning here, so that we can recover it." ”
Qi Meng was thinking about it, and the door over there had been opened. He walked into the room three times by turn, then closed the door after looking to see that no one was there.
Zhang Xiao walked into the restaurant, found a place by the window and sat down, and the waiter came over with the menu. He thought about it, since it was to buy time, it would be better for Suo and the others to come and order more.
"Give me a glass of jackfruit first, and then order the rest when you arrive. ”
The waiter quickly brought the drink that Zhang Xiao had just ordered. Zhang Xiao took the straw and took two sips happily, this shop was recommended to him by Linuo, and this drink, Linuo said that she would order it as long as she came.
When Zhang Xiao drank it for the first time, he felt that the taste of beer was too weak, but even so, he did not change. Thinking of this, he took out his mobile phone to dial Linuo's phone, rang a few times and no one answered, then he saw Qi Jingli wandering at the door, and hurriedly put down the mobile phone and beckoned to him.
"Brother Li, I'm here!"
Pete looked at it and walked over with a smile, "I didn't expect this point to be so blocked." ”
"Brother Li, this is City B, the heart of the country, there are many people and cars, and I gamble at any time. Zhang Xiao said with a smile, and then handed him the menu.
"I don't know your taste, so I didn't dare to place an order. Look at what you want to eat, just order, don't be polite to me. ”
Pete listened to it for a while, lowered his head and looked at the menu seriously, "Since you said so, then I'm not welcome." ”
"Well, let it go, I can't eat enough for a meal!" Zhang Xiao said and motioned for the waiter to come over, and at the same time took the kettle on the side to pour water for Pete, looked at the waiter who came and said, "Let's order!"
"Then stir-fried beef, sweet and sour tenderloin, garlic fried broccoli, and...."
"Brother Li ordered a hard dish, don't underestimate the amount of food we eat. Zhang Xiao stared at the menu and said, "Brother Li, do you eat fish?"
Pete listened, nodding, "You like fish?"
"I like to eat fish very much, my hometown is close to the Yangtze River, and I basically grew up eating fish. Zhang Xiao said excitedly, "If Brother Li has the opportunity to go to my hometown, I will definitely take you to eat the best river fish." ”
"Since we all like to eat fish, let's order a sauerkraut fish, and then a pimple soup, and two bottles of beer first?" Zhang Xiao nodded, Pete closed the menu, and handed it to the waiter, "Your hometown is close to the river?" ”
"Brother Li, guess what, it shouldn't be difficult. ”
"City Y?"
"Bingo!
Feng Tuo and his entourage finished packing up their things, holding the things that had been tidied up, everyone was worried these days, they didn't sleep well, and they were ready to return to the apartment to rest together. It's more that everyone is more or less concerned about the wooden box in Linuo's hand.
"Feng Yun, you take my car, anyway, we will go back the day after tomorrow, and we won't need this car. The one you drove today, just ask the assistant to come over and drive it back. After leaving the hospital, Zhang Zhang proposed, "That car is also larger than yours, so many things can't be put down." ”
Feng Yun listened to Zhang Li's words, nodded, and took out his mobile phone to send a message to his assistant Li Tong. Then he looked at Feng Tuo and Linuo, their eyes were red, and God was as sad as ever.
"You're going back the day after tomorrow?" Feng Yun thought back to Zhang Li's words, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at him and asked.
"Well, Pete has already negotiated the matter of the cemetery, and when I go back to your brother to sign it, I will call Pete and ask him to go to City X to arrange it first. Zhang Zhang said and glanced at Feng Tuo, "It's better to let Auntie settle in the soil as soon as possible, and return to the roots." ”
"I'll go back with me. Feng Yun thought for a moment and spoke, "Auntie has always been very good to me, and I should have given her a ride." Also, I haven't been back since I was a child, and I want to go back to see what my hometown is like. ”
"It's okay, anyway, the ticket hasn't been decided yet, I'll tell Pete to add you later. Zhang Zhang chatted with Feng Yun as he walked, and he didn't care about Feng Tuo and Linuo, who were thinking about things with their heads bowed in the back.
"You..."
"You..."
Feng Tuo and Li Nuo spoke at the same time, and both of them stopped and looked at each other.
"You speak first. Feng Tuo continued to walk with his things in his arms, signaling to leave the promise first.
"Are you alright?" said Linuo worriedly, something she had wanted to say for a long time. Whether it was outside the emergency room, when he just learned the news of Anya's death, when he hugged her and cried, looking at the morgue, he told the past with tears, and when he couldn't cry, she wanted to ask him.
Feng Tuo's steps forward paused, but he quickly adjusted, and a warm current in his heart filled every blood vessel and every cell in his heart, making him feel extremely warm in the depths of his heart.
"I... OK. Feng Tuo replied softly.
"Hmm—" Lino listened to his answer, and the tight rope in his heart slowly loosened. Thinking about what he was about to say just now, he stuck out his tongue and lips, and then carefully spoke, "You... Just now..."
Feng Tuo listened and turned his head to look at the girl who didn't know when, and had become cautious about what she said. Ten years really doesn't lie, everything has changed. As she confessed, she had changed.
"Don't be so careful in front of me, I'm not used to it. After Feng Tuo finished speaking, he didn't care what her reaction was, he turned his head to look ahead, "You have seen the contents of the box, if you feel burdened, you can hand it over to me for safekeeping." Of course, if you were willing to stay, I would probably be happier. ”
Linuo is very grateful to Feng Tuo for saying this, she has been working hard outside alone for a long time, and she has learned to look at people's eyes and bow her head for three points. It doesn't hurt the peace and doesn't slow down the work. It doesn't matter if she is robbed of her credit, after all, she doesn't have any career intentions, just get by. Linuo thought about listening to the second half of his sentence, glanced up at him, and then looked down at the box in his arms.
"So you know what's in the box?"
"I can't say I know. Feng Tuo turned his head to look at her, "However, I can guess the approximately." ”
"Probably?" Li Nuo looked at Feng Tuo inquiringly, and suddenly seemed to think of something, "Could it be..."
"Hmm!" Feng Tuo sighed, "I think it should be the company's shares, and my mother has ten percent of the shares in the group." It's not much, but it's enough for her living expenses. Now that she's gone, I contacted her lawyer and learned that she had transferred the company shares to you. I thought you knew, but after looking at your reaction in the past two days, I realized that you didn't. Today, when I saw the doctor come in with the box and say that my mother left it for you, I thought that maybe it was an equity transfer contract. ”
Linuo listened without the slightest pause, and immediately blurted out.
"I definitely can't ask for this!"
"I knew you would say that, but..."Feng Tuo said and stopped, standing face to face with Linuo, "If this is my mother's last wish, don't you think about it?" and it doesn't mean anything, it has nothing to do with me, you don't have to worry about me." ”
"Brother, Sister Linuo, get in the car!" Feng Yun shouted at them not far away.
"You think about it, and then get back to me. Feng Tuo looked at Feng Yun in the distance, turned his head and said to Linuo, "They are waiting, let's go over quickly." ”
Li Nuo had no choice but to nod, follow Feng Tuo's footsteps, and walk towards Zhang Li and Feng Yun, who were waiting not far ahead.
Half an hour later, the four returned to the apartment.
Feng Yun and Zhang Zhang put their things away, and Zhang Li went to the room on the third floor where he often lived to rest. Feng Yun originally planned to remind Feng Tuo, but after thinking about it for a while, his eyes rolled and he walked into his room happily, but his ears kept paying attention to the sound outside the door.
Linuo returned to the room with his things in his arms, took them off, and struggled with whether to open the box now. If it is really as Feng Tuo said, there is an equity transfer contract in the box, then what should I do?
Li Nuo raised his hand to support his chin and thought about it, only to find Feng Tuo who was stunned at the door at some point.
At this time, she reacted that this room was originally his, why did she forget it for a while, and her face instantly turned red when she thought about it. Feng Tuo looked at her watch and smiled slightly.
It's good that he doesn't laugh, and a smile makes Li Nuo feel embarrassed, and he starts to pack up his things in a hurry for a while.
"When I came back late yesterday, Feng Yun said that the cleaning aunt of this room has been cleaning, so she let me live here for the time being. "I didn't know this was your room..."
"I really don't know this is my room?" Feng Tuo looked at her helpless appearance, his heart got better, and he leaned against the door frame and asked in a low voice.

If beauty is simply used for display, maybe it is not so meaningful, but if beauty can be transformed into an ability to help more people, and even to make yourself better, then it is very valuable and meaningful.
