Zhao Zhixin said yes, in fact, he arrived in more than three hours, a GL8 with a Jiang A license plate drove into the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University, two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, got out of the car in a hurry, did not rush into the ward, and first contacted Liu Yimeng to meet outside.

The man and woman are both around forty years old, well-dressed and have a good temperament, and the man handed over his business card and introduced himself: "Zhao Zhixin, Yalan's classmate." ”

Liu Yimeng glanced at the business card, his information was not updated in time, it turned out that Zhao Zhixin had been promoted from chief engineer to number one, and was the chairman and secretary of the party committee of the unit.

"This is Xu Min, my lover, and Yalan's college classmate. Zhao Zhixin introduced the woman around him, Xu Min asked about Kuang Yalan's condition with great concern, and said that Lao Zhao called me as soon as he got the news, and we immediately put down our work and rushed over, I was going to drive, but I felt it was too slow, so we met at Hongqiao Station, and came by high-speed rail, how is Yalan, and her mental state allows her to see us?

Zhao Zhixin also said: "We were worried that she would be stimulated again, and we were also worried that the old man's heart would not be able to stand it, so we didn't tell her home for the time being, and we will talk about it when we see the situation." ”

Liu Yimeng said confidently: "With the help of the psychiatrist, she has manually erased all the memories after being trafficked, and there will definitely be some touches when I see you, but not to the extent of excitement, but you don't want to mention the abduction." ”

"That's good, that's good. Zhao Zhixin said with emotion, "Twenty-three years, I have been looking for Yalan for twenty-three years, and I have never stopped working hard, but I didn't expect to be found by you, I thank you for Yalan and her family." ”

Liu Yimeng said: "It should be." After a minute, she understood, it turned out that the driver went to the hospital to buy something, and the hospital was surrounded by small shops that ate the patient's economy, and the small supermarkets of flowers and fruits were everywhere, and the driver bought two baskets of flowers and two fruit baskets, both of which were the most expensive specifications.

When the flower and fruit basket arrived, Zhao Zhixin and Xu Min entered the house, the heating in the ward was sufficient, and the two took off their cashmere coats and scarves in their hands, stood at the door, and looked at the old man on the hospital bed.

Kuang Yalan leaned on the pillow, Chun Yu took a spoon to feed her millet porridge, two strangers came in, she didn't recognize it at all, but she still politely stopped eating and asked, "May I ask who you are?"

"Yalan, it's me, Zhao Zhixin. Zhao Zhixin walked over, and Chun Yu gave up his seat very clearly, but he didn't expect Uncle Zhao to naturally take the millet porridge and spoon over: "Yalan, I'll feed you." ”

"Zhao Zhixin?" Kuang Yalan looked at this strange man, tilted her head and looked at it, the man's appearance usually does not change much in the past twenty years, and there is a rare shadow of the young man between his eyebrows and eyes, but he has become more mature, stable and graceful.

A woman's mind is always sensitive and delicate, and Kuang Yalan did not greet Zhao Zhixin, but set her eyes on the woman behind him.

"Who's that?"

"That's Xu Min, a classmate in our class, and now it's my lover. Zhao Zhixin said.

"Yalan, don't you recognize me?" Xu Min stepped forward with a smile.

"Recognize it, you're still so good-looking. Kuang Yalan said, with a hint of vinegar in her tone.

Liu Yimeng and Chun Yu withdrew from the door, Chun Yu had no words to express the touch in his heart, the crazy woman locked in the pigsty and the innocent girl in front of him turned out to be the same person, if the mother followed the normal trajectory of fate, maybe she should be with Zhao Zhixin.

After a while, Xu Min came out first, and seeing the puzzled eyes of the two girls, she explained: "Let them catch up, I want to talk to the doctor." ”

"I'll go with you. Liu Yimeng said.

Xu Min's opinion is to send Kuang Yalan to Shanghai as soon as possible, she put forward her own plan, first use an ambulance from the hospital to the high-speed rail station, and then the local ambulance relay after the railway business seat arrives in Shanghai, the focus is on the high-speed rail stage requires doctors and nurses to accompany the whole process.

"We cover all costs. Xu Min said, "The patient is very weak, we can't let her have any accidents on the road, thank you." He bowed as he spoke.

The doctor knew that this was the patient's old classmate, and it was admirable that he could maintain a deep friendship after more than 20 years, and he immediately expressed his full cooperation.

Liu Yimeng went to the bathroom and happened to meet Zhao Zhixin coming out of the men's toilet, his eyes were red, and he was obviously crying.

Zhao Zhixin was about to say something, when suddenly the mobile phone rang, and he answered the phone first: "Hello, hello, Mayor Jin, a little private matter, don't bother......"

Liu Yimeng returned to the ward, Kuang Yalan's face was full of excitement, and said that I was going home, I can't go back in a hospital gown, I have to buy a new set of clothes, you can help me consult, what to wear.

Chun Leek said What color do you like, Kuang Yalan thought for a while and said red, white shirt with red skirt, red skirt is popular this year.

Young people don't know that Kuang Yalan is talking about the name of a movie back then, maybe she wants to use this way to pay tribute to her lost youth.

It's nine o'clock in the evening, and it's too late to go shopping in the mall, Liu Yimeng came up with a way, the waiter at the Golden Swan Hotel is equipped with a red skirt, you can go to the logistics department to ask for a new one, the white shirt is easier to find, and you can wear a tweed coat outside, with a scarf and a hat, and live together.

In the evening, Zhao Zhixin originally planned to accompany him in the hospital, but there was more business to entertain temporarily, and Jin Muchen, the executive vice mayor of Jinjiang City, had to set up a banquet to catch the wind, so he asked his wife Xu Min to chat with Yalan in the ward, and he went to socialize.

These are not hidden from Kuang Yalan, she is sincerely happy for her old classmates, and said to Xu Min: "Zhao Zhixin is now an old stick, and the mayor will invite him to dinner." ”

Xu Min said: "Lao Zhao later went to Fudan to study for a master's degree, and now he is not only the leader of the enterprise, but also enjoys the special allowance of the State Council, and is a deputy to the National People's Congress." ”

"What about you, Xu Min?"

"I teach at the university. ”

"You are all very good, I have been delayed for more than twenty years, and I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with you. Kwong Yalan was a little gloomy.

"No, if you take care of your body, you will be better than all of us. Xu Min endured her grief and said, she knew that Yalan's life was nearing the end, and every word she said and everything she did now was hospice care.

Kwong Yalan was very weak, and after chatting for a while, she fell into a coma, and the doctor said that this kind of lethargy was very dangerous and could become a long sleep at any time.

Zhao Zhixin hurried back not long after he went, he explained that the unit had several projects and Omijiang enterprises had cooperation, and he came in a hurry, so he borrowed a car and driver from the cooperative unit, but he didn't expect them to notify Mayor Jin, and he had to find time to socialize, which was really troublesome.

He said vaguely, but Liu Yimeng knew that this was definitely not an ordinary project, and it was not easy for the executive vice mayor of the provincial capital city to meet him.

Zhao Zhixin changed his words and mentioned the disappearance of the year, Liu Yimeng was right, Zhao Zhixin is the initiator of the so-called summer social practice, and Kuang Yalan is his lover, although it is the kind of ignorant and unclear relationship, but the classmates all know that because of various mistakes, the two were separated in the field, and then Kuang Yalan disappeared completely, Zhao Zhixin looked for a long time without a trace, which became a knot in his heart for a lifetime.

"I have an unshirkable responsibility for what happened to Yalan. Zhao Zhixin sighed, "Where did you find her?"

She was abducted and trafficked to Huluya, and for more than 20 years, she has been under house arrest in Baomiding Village, a small mountain village that does not have access to roads and only grows buds, and has given birth to two children, the younger one died, and the older one is her. Liu Yimeng whispered, his eyes on the spring leek in front of the hospital bed.

"No wonder, this kid's eyebrows and eyes are a little like Yalan. Zhao Zhixin nodded, "Hulu Cliff, I have an impression of this place name, at that time I suspected that Yalan was abducted and trafficked, we searched everywhere, posted a search notice, I should have been to Hulu Cliff, but found nothing." ”

That night, Zhao Zhixin and his wife stayed at a hotel near the hospital, and arrived at the hospital at half past five the next morning, but the ambulance and accompanying medical staff were not in place, and they waited until eight o'clock before all the personnel arrived, but it was the morning rush hour of traffic in Omi.

Kwong Yalan has put on a red dress with the help of Chun Leek, her daughter is thoughtful, in addition to this red skirt suitable for winter wear, there are also thick leggings and a pair of boots, and then with a lace women's white shirt and V-neck cashmere sweater, the outside is a cashmere coat and a scarf velvet hat, the mother is as happy as a little girl in new clothes, she can now accept herself in the mirror.

The mother is not very old, and she looks not bad, after grooming and applying a little powder, she is also radiant, at this time, Chun Leek can no longer overlap the person in front of her and her mother, this person is just Kuang Yalan, and the abused crazy woman in Bao Miding has nothing to do with it.

Yesterday's party with Mayor Jin was not all useless, Mayor Jin arranged for the traffic police department to escort the ambulance to the high-speed rail station, all the way the police car opened the road, the siren sounded, given that the escort was an ambulance, the people who were blocked on the road did not scold the street, but took the initiative to get out of the way.

Liu Yimeng and Chun Yu accompanied the whole process, they arrived at the high-speed rail station and did not take the conventional route to check in and enter the station, but the ambulance drove to the platform, and waited for the high-speed rail to arrive at the station directly on the train, a patient plus medical staff and escorts, almost half of the carriage, this is a business class car, the seat can be adjusted to lie flat, in Kuang Yalan's memory, the most advanced train is just an electric locomotive, let alone seen this kind of sci-fi seat, all the way in amazement, and even forgot the pain.

Zhao Zhixin only contacted Uncle Kuang on the high-speed train, he did not call in advance because he was afraid that the old man would not be able to sleep well all night, and it was most appropriate to contact him a few hours in advance, so that there was a psychological buffer period and not too long to wait.

When the train entered the urban area of Shanghai, Kuang Yalan's eyes never left the window, Shanghai has changed too much, with high-rise buildings and busy traffic, which is not the same as the hometown in her memory.

After getting off the train, the ambulance from Shanghai came to relay, the medical staff from Omi took the next train back, and Kuang Yalan got into the ambulance. Refreshed, she refused to lie on the stretcher, had to sit and watch the scenery, the doctor respected her request, the ambulance took the Yan'an elevated road through the bustling Shanghai, through the tunnel to Pudong Lujiazui, specially detoured to let the Shanghai daughter who had been separated for 23 years see today's Pudong, towering skyscrapers and intricate urban elevated roads, shuttle vehicles, huge billboards, Kuang Yalan was dizzying, she asked Zhao Zhixin: "We have achieved four modernizations, right?"

"Yalan, we will discuss the four modernization things later, your house in Jing'an District has been demolished, and now the second elder lives in Pudong, I have already contacted them, you will be able to meet them soon, don't be too excited. Zhao Zhixin was vaccinated in advance.

Kwong Yalan said I know, but when the ambulance drove into the gate of a community on Laoshan Road, she recognized at a glance that the two elderly people standing at the door were her long-lost parents.
