074, meet the old man in another country
I didn't know which key to press when I held the phone, and finally it rang for a long time, but I still mustered up the courage to pick it up. Before I could speak, Lei Xi's voice came from the other party: "Ke An, what have you been doing in the past two days, swiping so much money on the card." ”
I almost threw my phone away when I heard the voice, but everything about me and her was just speculation for the time being, and even if it existed, it didn't break, and I didn't have any reason to bring it up in the first place. As her words say, "My bag was robbed. ”
"Oh?" said Leixi lightly, "Then I'll ask Lan Lan to report the stop, do you want to send you another one?"
"No," my throat trembled.
"Are you on the shore now?" asked Reich again.
A few days ago, there was a ticket for my card in the bag I lost, and it is estimated that when the thief swiped the card in large amounts, the other party asked to leave a mobile phone number for verification, right? I first picked it up and said bluntly: "Reich, you have something to do with me, right?"
"Huh. Reich chuckled softly and didn't rush to answer my question: "I heard that your child has dropped?"
"What do you have to say directly, okay? I know that Zhang Nan is dead, and you must hate me as much as they do. "I really can't talk as casually as she did.
"Ke An, you should understand what Zhang Nan's death means to me, right?" Reich finally stopped beating around the bush and answered my question directly, and asked a rhetorical question.
"I don't really understand. "That's the truth, I have to be careful in front of her.
"You're a smart woman, I think you understand. Two battery drain tones came from the phone, and Reich made a long story short: "I'm on my way to the beach now, let's meet later." ”
The tone was not an inquiry, but an announcement, as if she had to find me even if I didn't agree. The hairs on my body stood on end, did I want to find out with me and attack me directly?But if I didn't agree, with the little money I had now, would I be able to run away from her?
Seeing that I didn't reply, Reich opened his mouth again: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you." With that, the phone was hung up.
After a few days, I thought I could try to stand up on my own, but after answering the call, I couldn't calm down anymore. Reich chased from City A to Binhai overnight, and it was definitely not as simple as meeting as she said.
I paced back and forth in the house in a panic, trying to leave but not knowing where to go, and the minutes passed by about 5:03 p.m., and my text message alert sounded. I opened my inbox, and it was the number from Reich just now: "6 o'clock, see you at the cokker coffee in front of Yijiayuan." ”
Seeing Yijiayuan, I basically decided that Lei Xi locked my coordinates, even if I wanted to escape now, it would be too late. If someone wants to look for you, no matter how you hide, you can't hide, not to mention that the people looking for me are not some simple characters. So since that's the case, I can only face it.
Ye Yiding is crazy for love, and I have no reason not to be strong for him. And the so-called strength must no longer survive. Ye Yiding's purpose in doing this is not to see me survive in Tibet.
Thinking about all this, I feel like my whole body is full of strength, no more timidity and cowardice, no longer worried and afraid. At 5:50, I changed into the pure white dress and carefully combed my long hair with a wooden comb over and over again, until it looked like it had returned to its previous luster in the mirror, and then I went out with my phone and keys.
I haven't paid much attention to it for the past few days, but when I got to the gate, I saw the Cokker café across the street. It's on the second floor, and the sign is faintly blocked by the vigorous plants on the street. If you're not familiar with this area, it's unlikely that you'll see that café at a glance.
When I was waiting for the traffic to cross the street, I vaguely saw that inside the glass on the second floor, Lei Xi and Ouyang Lanlan were waving at me. At this point, I'm sure she's been sure she's been where I'm from the moment she calls me. I combed my hair with my hands and walked over with my head held high.
What kept flashing in my mind was what Ye Yiding said when he was leaving, until I got in front of them, I didn't feel stage fright or fear at all. It seems that when people are not really cornered, they really can't estimate their own capacity.
Reich continued to greet her as usual, not cutting into the subject, and I stared into her eyes, trying to find a trace in the few words. In the middle of the ring, Lei Xi turned his head and nodded to Ouyang Lanlan, Ouyang Lanlan took out a piece of paper from his bag and put it on the table, and said, "Ke An, take a look first, did you do this?"
On the paper was a printed Weibo content, and the title of the Weibo was "The Confused Life of a Monogamous Wife of the Son of the Executive Director of CC Group". There are a lot of pictures in it, and the fact that Xu Anzhi and I lived together in Zhang Nan's house during this time is explained in the form of words. In just two days, Weibo has been reposted hundreds of thousands of times, and countless big Vs and celebrities have also reprinted and criticized.
Although Zhang Nan is not a celebrity, the CC Group executed by his father-in-law has appeared in the public eye many times. Two years ago, CC Group also funded the establishment of the CC Women's Fund, which is dedicated to providing financial assistance to sick women who have been victims of domestic violence and poverty. So once this matter appears on Weibo, it will naturally arouse everyone's high sensitivity.
Seeing this, I finally understood why Zhang Nan was so excited before he died. This is not only a matter of losing the face of the south, but even the entire Zhang family and even the CC Group have been pushed to the forefront by this incident. I put the paper back on the table, shook my head and replied unequivocally, "Not me." ”
"I don't think it could be you. Reich took over, "I think you understand, I want to know how Zhang Nan died." Although there were many witnesses at the scene, as the only person closest to the scene, you should know it. ”
In fact, Zhang Nan's death was really an accident and coincidence. I couldn't refuse to answer, so I had to say truthfully: "Originally, Ye Yiding just came to talk to me about something, but when he came, he happened to run into Zhang Nan and wanted to strangle me." ”
"Is it because he saw the Weibo content?"
"I think so. ”
Lei Xi thought thoughtfully, supported his head with his hands and fell into deep thought, and only raised his head for a long time, "Then I know, you stay in the coastal area first, don't go anywhere." If I have anything else, I will let Ouyang Lanlan come to you. ”
"But..."
"By the way, I have already reported your lost bank card, and it will take a while to reissue it. I'll bring it back next time I come, what do you think?"
Since the last time I received the card, Zhang Duoduo had an accident, and I also made myself childless, and I didn't dare to accept any more charity from Lei Xi. I politely declined her kindness: "No, I'm not busy with you." ”
"That's okay, take care of yourself here, don't let Chen Yimei and Zhang Luo find you. "Chen Yimei is my mother-in-law, Lei Xi got up and left after settling the account with Ouyang Lanlan.
I sat in the café for a long time and didn't come back to my senses, Lei Xi came so far to the sea, it was really so easy to let me go?
I watched the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, and suddenly I saw the voice and shadow of a familiar woman in the crowd. When I was taken to a public hospital by Ye Yiding for the first time, Xu Anzhi held a bloody child in front of me, and the dream was so terrifying that I can still remember it vividly. And that familiar figure was the one who lived next to my hospital bed that day, and kept muttering: "How can it be stillborn".
In this strange place, I can see strangers who have crossed paths, and suddenly I have a sense of familiarity, and I want to go downstairs to say hello to her. I got up with my phone and went downstairs, and in front of the café there was a woman carrying a burden and selling fruit, and the woman was haggling in front of the stall.
I followed and stood next to her, pretending to be shopping, and when she finished buying fruit, she turned around and saw me. Her gaze stayed on me for a few seconds, "I seem to know you." ”
"Hmm. I nodded excitedly: "We spent time in a ward in City A Hospital. ”
The woman looked down at my belly and asked unexpectedly, "What, what about your child?"
Maybe it was because we had all had the same experience, but I didn't feel the slightest bit of outsight, nervousness, and casually said, "It's gone." ”
"Oh," the woman handed me a plastic bag of fruit and greeted me, "Come, get one?"
I picked a peach, "You live around here?"
"That's right. The woman pointed across the street, "Where do I live?"
"No, it won't. I didn't expect her to live in the same neighborhood as me, and I was a little excited: "I live there too." ”
"Why don't you go to my house to sit down? Finally, I can meet patients from City A here, and I can live in a community. "Maybe she thought the same way I did when she saw my stomach go down.
Even more coincidentally, she actually lived across the street from my house. I rarely go out these days, so I don't have many opportunities to see each other. During the chat, I learned that the woman's name is Bai Hehe, her hometown is in a very remote mountainous area under the coast, she used to work in City A, but she broke up with her boyfriend because she lost her child, so she returned to Binhai.
I remembered in a trance the older woman standing next to her, the cold face of the outcome of the stillbirth.
Bai Hehe's impression on me today is different from that day, after she saw me, she kept telling me about her situation, and after she roughly explained her basic situation, she asked me: "What about you? How did your child fall? Could it be that you are the same as me, the child fell and was driven away by your mother-in-law, right?"
