Chapter 2: Car Accidents
It was night, and it was raining heavily.
A blue warning for heavy rain in the next three hours popped up on the mobile phone, and the wind force reached more than eight levels.
Xu Simu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the crumbling shadows of the trees blown by the storm outside the window, and his heart tightened.
The phone rang, and she answered it almost without a moment's hesitation.
"What do you have to do with Ah Yue to go back at this time?"
There was a question from her mother-in-law in the earpiece, and Xu Simu clenched the mobile phone in her hand, "I...... There are important things to say. ”
"Important?" Yang Qinyu asked rhetorically, "What is important to you? Is it important to have F&R's partners?
At a drinking party, his son received three calls from Xu Simu urging him to go back.
She didn't think that this daughter-in-law was ignorant before, and it was best to be able to be safe and secure without a sense of existence.
This time, it was unexpectedly abnormal, which made her disdainful.
"Yes," Xu Simu bit her pale lip and said word by word, "It's more important than those." ”
Four hours later.
Half past eleven.
There was a knock at the door, and the man pushed it open from the outside.
He was dressed in a formal suit for a dinner party, a tuxedo-style blazer on his arm, cold and reserved, and his eyes swept coldly across the dark living room.
"You're back. ”
A low female voice came from a dark corner.
Xu Simu moved his stiff arm, his fingers flicked to the cup and spoon in front of him, and he raised his eyes to look over.
Seeing each other again after a month is better than a stranger.
"Why are you sitting here?" Zhou Hanyue loosened the two buttons on his neckline, walked up the stairs, and asked casually.
"Waiting for you. ”
Zhou Hanyue's footsteps paused slightly, and his side eyes raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I've been waiting for you for four and a half hours. ”
Xu Simu faced Zhou Han's more and more persecutive eyes, and stated a fact in a very serious tone.
Zhou Hanyue raised the corners of his eyes, "So?"
Xu Simu bit her lip, "I called you during the day," she was a little drumming in her heart, and silently clenched her fingers, "I have something to look for you." ”
"Oh?"
Zhou Hanyue turned around, turned back with gentle steps, walked to the wine cabinet in the side hall, and clicked on the wall lamp on the wall, "Let's talk about it." ”
He bent down and took out two goblets from the wine cabinet, poured a third of the red wine, took a sip first, and handed the other glass to Xu Simu, "Mrs. Zhou, I'm waiting for you to speak." ”
Xu Simu took the wine glass and squeezed it in his palm.
The deep rose-red liquor made her skin as white as snow, and the tips of the fingers holding the glass turned white because of the force.
Xu Simu pinched the pregnancy test stick in her pocket and moved her lips several times.
"I ......"
An abrupt mobile phone ringtone broke the silence, and also broke Xu Simu's slightly lower voice.
Zhou Hanyue connected the phone, and a panicked cry came from the receiver.
“…… It's thundering, I'm afraid ......"
As if to highlight the words in the earpiece, a muffled thunder rolled overhead, and the eardrums stirred.
Zhou Hanyue's mobile phone did not leak sound, but Xu Simu could still hear it, it was a woman's crying voice.
His face changed, he put down his phone and strode outside.
"Where are you? I'll be there in a minute. ”
"Zhou Hanyue!"
Xu Simu stopped him.
Zhou Hanyue didn't even have time to change into his home clothes, just put on a long coat, opened the door and entered the rain curtain.
Her voice echoed empty in the living room, with an echo.
Xu Simu stood alone in the living room, still holding the glass of red wine in his hand.
After Zhou Hanyue left, he didn't come back until the early hours of the morning.
Xu Simu tossed and turned on the bed, the thunder outside the window was very loud, and the wind and rain mixed with Xiaoice and hail smashed on the glass window crackling.
Finally, I was just a little sleepy, and there was a knock at the door.
Xu Simu touched the bedside lamp and propped himself up, "Who?"
The anxious voice of the servant came from the door: "Madam, it's not good, just now the hospital called, saying that Mr. had been in a car accident!"
