That night, Eric completed the discharge procedures for Qiao Xihe, and then used the car he rented to send her to other places.

Qiao Xihe wrapped the thin blanket on his body tightly and curled up in the back seat of the car.

Eric deliberately put soft and soothing music in the car, which he only played after consulting the doctor, and heard that this was conducive to Qiao Xihe's recovery.

Qiao Xihe closed his eyes and listened to the music, and his heart gradually calmed down.

Before being discharged from the hospital, Eric said: "Things have evolved to this point, and there is no turning back, so we can only look to the future." ”

He also said: "This is your life, only your life, no matter what outsiders do, you have to live your life well, because there will be no second time, so you have to cherish it." ”

Actually, this sentence sounded very ordinary and weak, but she stopped in her ear, and suddenly it suddenly dawned.

Yes, it's just the loss of a love, it's just a shame to run around, she still has her own future, and her father needs to be taken care of, she has to be strong.

Her heart was so calm that she didn't want to cry anymore.

At the moment, she just wants to go to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, where the traffic is not very convenient, and there is not even the Internet, and it is said that the mobile phone signal is also good and bad, and the villagers can only go to the village chief's house to borrow a landline phone when they are calling.

She can quietly wait for the day when her father will be released from prison, and she can also escape all the news from the outside world.

When she gets her dad and settles down in the new city, she will start a new life.

Probably, he will never see Pei Ting again in this life.

In the future, I won't be worried or sad.

Thinking of this, she smiled pale and weakly.

Eric glanced at the woman in the back seat from the rearview mirror, hooked the corners of his lips, and continued to drive seriously.

Three hours later, they arrived at a small county town, first found a random hotel, and planned to change into a small agricultural tricycle tomorrow morning to enter the village.

The innkeeper looked at the couple in front of him sleepily, "Coincidentally, there is only one room, you husband and wife can make do with it." ”

"......" Eric looked at Qiao Xihe embarrassedly and corrected: "I'm sorry, we are not husband and wife, nor boyfriend and girlfriend, just ordinary friends." ”

"Hey, hey. The innkeeper looked at them meaningfully, took out a key and slapped it on the table, "Love or not." ”

There is only such a small hotel in the small county, and if you don't live there, it will not be comfortable to sleep in the car all night. Eric thought for a while and said to Qiao Xihe: "That's it, you sleep in the guest room, and I'll just have a bowl in the car." ”

Qiao Xihe said softly: "But...... It's going to be uncomfortable......"

"It doesn't matter, after all, men and women are different, and it's inconvenient to talk to you about the same room. Eric said.

Qiao Xihe didn't have the energy to fight, and nodded slightly, "Okay then." ”

Eric took the key and sent Qiao Xihe to the upstairs room, carefully checked that there was no problem in the room, and then took out the clean sheets from the plastic bag he brought over, and threw himself on the bed in the guest room, "You can sleep in peace, so that you will have the strength and good spirit tomorrow." When I get out, you're going to have to lock the door behind you and put the chain lock, you know?"

"Hmm. Qiao Xihe replied, barely squeezing out a smile, "Thank you, Eric." ”

Eric scratched his hair embarrassedly, "It's my hobby to help others, okay, have a good rest, I'll go downstairs, maybe I can beg my boss to spend the night on the couch in the hall." ”

"Good night. Qiao Xihe said.

Eric said, "Good night." ”

He gently brought the door to the door and went downstairs.

Qiao Xihe still had a headache at this time, so he slowly lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

All around, it's quiet, there's not a hint of the big city's glittering neon lights or noise.

At this time, in her mind, Pei Tingyuan's figure involuntarily appeared again, and the sweet words that Pei Tingyuan said seemed to echo in her ears.

She remembered that before going to the Seychelles, she and Pei Tingyuan went to visit her father together.

Although Dad was worried, he blessed them.

Qiao Xihe smiled bitterly, his fingers tightened the leaflet, and tears poured out of his eyes uncontrollably, sliding across his face and wetting the sheets.

She didn't know when she fell asleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn outside.

Her head didn't hurt much anymore, she stood up, looked out the window at the old buildings of the small county town, and in a trance, she felt like a world away.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by Eric's voice, "Xihe, are you awake?"

Since he decided to be discharged from the hospital yesterday, Eric has changed his name, no longer calling Qiao Xihe "Mrs. Pei", but directly calling his name.

"Well, I'm up. Qiao Xihe got up, tidied up the clothes on his body, then walked over, opened the door of the room, and then saw Eric's bright smiling face, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing her stunned, Eric himself was stunned for a moment, and then quickly restrained his smile, "I'm sorry, I ......"

"You're hungry. Qiao Xihe said first.

Eric was stunned again, then regained a smile on his face, lifted the plastic bag in his hand, and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, there is nothing delicious in the small county, only soy milk and buns were found, do you want to eat them?"

"Thank you, I love to eat. Qiao Xihe took the plastic bag, put it on the small table in the guest room, and then went to the bathroom to wash.

When she came out after washing, she saw Eric still standing at the door of the guest room stupidly.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Xihe asked puzzledly, "Why are you standing at the door stupidly?"

"How can you enter a lady's room without a lady's invitation?" said Eric.

"Poof......" Qiao Xihe couldn't help but be amused by his old-fashionedness.

The smile in Eric's eyes deepened, "You're finally smiling." ”

"Huh?" Qiao Xihe was stunned, and then smiled, "Come in and have breakfast, we have to find the tricycle that happens to go to the village later." ”

"Don't worry, I've got you covered. Eric said, "I'll see you at the door at nine o'clock." ”

Qiao Xihe looked at Eric, and somehow, all the previous suspicions and boredoms disappeared at this time.

Fortunately, I recognized such a "righteous" friend and accompanied her all the way here.

She lowered her head and finished her breakfast in silence.

Simple soy milk and meat buns, eaten in the mouths of hungry people, are as delicious as the delicacies of the mountains and seas.

After breakfast and resting for a while, Qiao Xihe and Eric came to the door of the hotel, and the innkeeper still looked at them with an ambiguous gaze, and then whistled.

None of them paid any attention to the innkeeper and went straight to the farm tricycle.

"That's right, Eric......" Qiao Xihe pondered for a moment and said, "You may not be able to adapt to the conditions of the mountain village over there, so you can accompany me here." ”
