The red sun is sinking in the west, and night is falling.

While the drunken Zhu Yugong was lying on the carpet of the villa with an empty wine bottle in his arms and muttering, Hu Xi, who was wearing a white-on-white and blue-striped hospital gown, walked up to the roof of the inpatient department of St. Paul's Hospital in Vancouver alone.

The temperature in Vancouver in late September was already very low, and despite wearing thermal underwear under the hospital gown, the cold night wind on the roof still made Hu Xi shiver.

Walking to the edge of the rooftop with his arms crossed, and glancing at the staircase behind him, Hu Xi took out a cigarette case and a lighter from the pocket of his hospital gown, took out a thin lady's cigarette, turned his back to the direction where the wind was blowing, lit the cigarette, and took a deep breath.

Putting the cigarette case back in his pocket, Hu Xi rubbed the lighter in his hand with a look of reminiscence.

If Bian Xuedao saw the lighter in Hu Xi's hand, he would definitely be able to recognize that Hu Xi's lighter and the lighter that Shen Fu gave him were the same brand and model.

Bian Xuedao rarely smokes, often opens a pack of cigarettes, and can't finish smoking in a month, and belongs to the kind of person who is not addicted to smoking, so he basically does not have cigarettes on him.

But he will carry a lighter with him, because the "survival maniac" Qi Sanshu told him: "Fire is the key element of human survival and survival." ”

According to Qi Sanshu, if it comes to the end of the world, as long as he is given three things, he will be able to survive in the wild for a while.

The three things mentioned in Qi Sanshu are the source of fire, the kettle, and the knife.

You can't carry a knife or a kettle with you, but it's still okay to carry a lighter. Of course, he didn't bring a lighter to prevent the end of the world, but because it was a gift from Shen Fu.

It is no coincidence that Hu Xi used a lighter of the same brand and style as Bian Xuedao.

At Jiang Yong's son's full moon banquet, Hu Xi talked to Bian Xuedao for the first time, which was to borrow fire from him.

At that time, Hu Xi borrowed the lighter that Shen Fu sent to Bian Xuedao, Hu Xi remembered it after using it once, and then, the ghost made a miracle to buy an identical one.

It's really a ghost!

It's the same as Xiang Bin, who shot and shot Xiang Bin in a car at Dongsen University.

Until today, Hu Xi couldn't tell what kind of feeling she had about Bian Xuedao.

Say she loves to learn the Tao?

Less!

A woman like Hu Xi has almost lost the ability to love, and what she has spent her good youth and beautiful body to pursue is financial freedom and the second half of her life.

Say she doesn't feel anything about Bian Xuedao at all?

Also inaccurate!

Hu Xi is not the kind of woman with a clear price, youth and body are just stepping stones for her to climb up, what really makes her prosperous is her wrist and communication ability. So don't look at Hu Xi's appearance in front of Bian Xuedao, who always looks like Ren Jun picking, you come and do it-me, in fact, the whole Songjiang is really close to Fangze, but there are only three people.

Three men, a little more open-minded female college students have achieved this indicator at the university level.

Therefore, Hu Xi learned the entrance to the road in the KTV private room, and played ambiguously with him in the video, which is a very rare behavior.

Maybe it's really like what Bian Xuedao said to him in front of the hospital bed when he was hospitalized, "I don't love you, and I don't hate you." You sparked my possessiveness, and for a while, I wanted to live with you once, even if it was only for a day, or have a baby with you. I always feel that it would be a pity to meet you in this life, if there is no intersection and nothing to do. ”

It's a shame......

It's a shame indeed!!

A cigarette was exhausted, and the lighter in the palm of his hand was already warm, but Hu Xi suddenly had tears in his eyes.

……

……

"Hu Xi was diagnosed with lymphoma, and after several months of treatment, it did not stop the deterioration of her condition, and my friend in Canada said that she had half a month left at most. ”

"I have a relationship with Hu Xi, because she has the pride of a man and is very righteous. ”

"When you were sick and hospitalized, she begged me to take action at a price of nearly 8 million at a discount, spread the news, and scared An Chunsheng away, so as to prevent several parties from attacking Youdao Group at the same time. ”

"She is a poor woman, sixty percent of the money she earned in Songjiang a few years ago was given to the boss behind her, and two percent were taken away by tigers from all walks of life, and those that fell into her own hands were at most twenty percent, and she had to be picked out by the boss's son again, but in the eyes of the outside world, they thought she was greedy. ”

"The boss's son is interesting to her, she has not let the other party succeed, twice was dragged into the car by the boss's son to use force, she would rather die than obey, and was beaten so that she didn't get out of bed for half a month. ”

London, United Kingdom.

Sitting in the car, holding a mobile phone, Bian Xuedao barely spoke, and Lin Xianghua was always talking.

said that it was "a long story short", but Lin Xianghua seemed to have suppressed a lot of things in his heart, and he couldn't wait to vent it.

An international call took more than 20 minutes.

At the end, Lin Xianghua said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Bian, I know that the following words should not be said by me, but I still have to say that Hu Xi's time is running out, and I think she must want to see you before leaving, but she doesn't want to disturb you, for fear that you will reject her." ”

Lin Xianghua continued: "I assure you in the name of the three generations of the Lin family's ancestors, what I just said is true, Hu Xi did beg me to help you buy time at a cost of nearly 8 million, she treats you differently than others......"

Lin Xianghua's tone was very excited, but many things could not be confirmed, Bian Xuedao did not answer, did not express his position, he held his mobile phone, and was silent.

On the other end of the phone, with a light sigh, Lin Xianghua said: "Okay, don't bother you, wait until I send you the address where she is hospitalized, I won't tell her that I have contacted you, the decision is in your hands." ”

End the call.

Bian Xuedao didn't hand over the phone to Li Bing as usual, he held the phone, leaned back on the seat with his eyes closed, and didn't know what he was thinking.

When he returned to the apartment, Shen Fu had already woken up.

She reclined on the couch and continued to watch "The-Thorn-Birds."

Seeing Bian Xuedao enter the door, Shen Fu put down the book and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Bian Xuedao sat down and said, "I've eaten." ”

Shen Fu asked, "Have you gone to see the house?"

Bian Xuedao nodded: "Well, I went to see a real estate." ”

Closing the book, Shen Fu said solemnly: "Don't buy too expensive, don't buy too big, I don't know when the financial crisis will pass, you are a business, you can't have no cash flow in your hands." ”

grabbed Shen Fu's feet, put them on his legs, and said, "Don't worry, I know in my heart, no matter what, I can't treat you and the child badly." ”

Shen Fu is not a hypocritical woman, hearing what Bian Xuedao said, she smiled softly, reopened the book in her hand, looked at the book and said, "Go for an afternoon, you go to the bedroom to rest for a while." ”

Gently kneading Shen Fu's toes, he said, "You seem to have always liked to read." ”

Shen Fu nodded: "Yes, I have already thought about it, when I retire, I will make sure to read at least 8 books every month." ”

"8 copies?" Bian Xuedao said: "The thicker tome, you can't finish reading it at all, right?"

Shen Fu said lazily: "Of course, it depends on the situation. ”

Bian Xuedao asked, "What is the purpose of your reading?"

Shen Fu thought for a while and said: "In order to meet with all kinds of good things such as good people, good things, good things, and good feelings, in order to experience the thinking and life of another life in the world through the writer's words." ”

After Shen Fu finished speaking, he looked at the floor-to-ceiling window opposite and recited silently: "Good people, good things, good things, good feelings......"

Nothing was said all night.

……

……

Next.

Shen Fu's state was a little better, and after breakfast, she pulled Bian Xuedao out and said that she wanted to buy clothes for Bian Xuedao.

When I came to the UK to learn Taoism, I only brought a small travel bag, and there were not a few clothes in it, and Shen Fu was interested after hearing about it.

She took the students to the famous "Savile-Row" in England.

Compared to the busy Piccadilly, Savile-Row, a few steps away, is as quiet as if you have traveled through two worlds.

Savile-Row is a 200-year-old street in London's West End, which has been home to some of the world's best tailors since the early 19th century, and has since become a mecca for haute couture. If Parisian fashion is "after womenswear", the tailor-made menswear of "Tailor Street" is the "king of menswear".

Take Bian Xuedao to a men's clothing store called Henry-Poole, where Shen Fu pulls him to carefully select fabrics and styles.

After asking, I found out that a fully bespoke two-piece suit at Henry-Poole starts at £3,800 and takes 10-12 weeks to make, which means you won't be able to wear it for a while.

Moreover, because Bian Xuedao was visiting for the first time, there was no body data of Bian Xuedao in the store, so in order to ensure that customers were 100% satisfied with the effect of the clothes, the tailor in the store asked Bian Xuedao to try on the clothes repeatedly until they fit completely before letting him go.

In the end, Shen Fu spent 7,800 pounds to customize two sets of formal clothes for Bian Xuedao.

Coming out of the men's clothing store, Shen Fu was still interested in shopping, and the two went to the department store with their bodyguards.

In the department store, when passing by a counter specializing in lighters, Bian Xuedao happened to see the lighter that Shen Fu gave him.

In the next moment, he thought of the cold woman who came over to borrow fire from him in a black evening dress, the charming woman who was intertwined with his grievances.

Huxi ......

She only has half a month to live.

An hour later, on the way back to the apartment, Bian Xuedao put his arm around Shen Fu's shoulder, looked at the car window and said, "Something happened, I can't continue to accompany you." ”

Shen Fu whispered: "You go, I know to protect myself." ”

Bian Xuedao nodded, and said to Li Bing in the front seat: "Now call Yang Enqiao and ask him to book me a ticket to Canada tomorrow." ”
