Chapter 15 The rain falls
The incident of Xue Qi running away from home, which made me frightened, ended with Xue Qi's final return.
And the rest of the matter is also very simple.
After Xue Qi and I talked in the ward for a while, Yu Hui appeared at the door of the ward with porridge and fruit basket like a ghost, and Xue Qi was still in my arms at that time, so Yu Hui was stunned for a while, and I consciously wanted to leave the room, but I stopped her when I saw it and let her come in.
As soon as I said this, Yuhui stopped at the door for two seconds, and finally walked in with a blank face.
She walked straight to my bedside, and without saying anything special, she put the porridge and fruit basket in her hand on my bedside table.
Obviously, it was Yuhui who bought it for me.
It's really funny, a few months ago, I just took care of Yuhui when she was sick, but I didn't expect Yuhui to visit me today.
History is a striking coincidence.
The atmosphere in the ward was very depressing, Yuhui helped me peel the pear skin, and Xueqi fed me porridge, which was indescribably wonderful. Actually, I can eat by myself, but because after a while, the doctor came to measure my body temperature, and after measuring it, it was still above 40 degrees, so he added salt water to me, and my hands were inconvenient to move, so Xueqi came to feed me.
At that time, I was really impressed.
I didn't think about Xu Bin or the decline in grades, I just felt that in the past 14 years, I have not raised my "daughter" in vain.
After that, it was very simple and very bland, and in the following days, basically I didn't go to Xueqi running away from home in advance, and the focus of my story with Xueqi was on my cold. And speaking of which, my cold was really bad too.
The doctor's statement was that I was too busy and tired in the past few days, and I had suffered from severe wind and cold, so I was physically and mentally emaciated.
If the fever does not go away, it may even affect my brain and cause sequelae.
So for the next few days, I was in the role of an inpatient.
During that time, Ma Yike and some of my colleagues came to visit me one after another.
During the three days I was hospitalized, Xueqi's pick-up and drop-off to school was handled by Yuhui and Ma Yike respectively.
Although I wanted to be discharged early, I was advised by the doctor to spend three days in the hospital.
Three days later, I was discharged from the hospital, my body was still very weak, I walked lightly, and I couldn't taste anything in my mouth. However, my condition is still improving, and of course, I am fully healthy after a week.
On the day I was discharged from the hospital, Xueqi gave me a surprise.
It was Friday, and I drove to pick up Xueqi from school.
When I first arrived at the school gate, I saw Xue Qi and a handsome skinny boy standing in front of a bubble tea shop near the school gate.
After a closer look, I recognized that the boy who was talking to Xue Qi was the same Xu Bin who had molested Xue Qi.
Seeing Xue Qi and Xu Bin talking, my heart suddenly sank again, knowing that something must have happened again, I parked the car for a distance and looked at Xue Qi and Xu Bin from a distance.
But what surprised me was that Xue Qi and Xu Bin didn't talk for long, and Xu Bin actually cried anxiously with a sad face.
Xu Bin looked sad and sad, and Xue Qi turned around to leave, at that time Xu Bin actually shamelessly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to put it on Xue Qi's shoulder, but Xue Qi frowned and said a few more words to him, then resolutely shook his ponytail and turned to leave. Xu Bin, who was still holding two cups of milk tea in his hand, was still standing at the door of the milk tea shop stupidly looking at Xueqi's back.
Xue Qi only walked a few steps, I pulled the car lama, heard my horn, Xue Qi turned around and noticed me, her face looked better, and then walked directly over, pulled the car door and got into the car.
"What were you talking to that Xu Bin just now?" After Xue Qi got into the car, she didn't look very good, so I asked her tentatively.
Xue Qi put down her schoolbag and said in a calm voice, "Xu Bin confessed to me." He said he liked me. ”
"Huh?" I was taken aback. “…… So what do you say?"
"I turned him down. Xue Qi looked straight ahead and said.
"You...... How did you refuse?" Xue Qi's answer surprised me, and I didn't even expect it at all, "Aren't you on good terms with him?"
I still tentatively asked Xue Qi, and at the same time, I also saw Xu Bin looking at Xu Bin infatuated in the distance through the car window.
"It's not much~~ Anyway, I just refused!Let's go home, pa!" Xue Qi blushed, seemingly reluctant to answer my question, she urged me, and I frowned and didn't ask more. I don't know how true what Xue Qi said.
"It's good to refuse, if you dare to fall in love, be careful with me...... Hmph!" I blew my beard and glared at Xue Qi, who also grimaced when she saw me threatening her, and spat out her slender pink tongue at me.
Of course, Xu Bin's business is not over yet, and on the way home, Xueqi once again told me a news that surprised me.
"Papa, Xu Bin is going to another place. Xue Qi suddenly told me.
"Transferred to the field?...... Why do you want to go out?"
"That...... Because their family is about to move, Xu Bin's parents have always lived separately in the two places because of their work, but they seem to have bought a new house, so they are moving out. Xue Qi blinked and replied to me.
"What did Xu Bin tell you?"
"Hmm. ”
Xu Bin is moving......
At this time, I remembered that when I checked the chat history between Xueqi and Xu Bin on the computer that day, Xu Bin did mention the matter of moving.
"Yes. "Regarding Xu Bin's move to another school, I finally ended it with these two most concise words. And what I'm most curious about is that incident
"Qiqi, how did you reject Xu Bin?"
"Nothing!"
"Tell me the truth, hurry up and tell Papa!"
"It's really nothing!"
"Tell me!"
"Don't say it, just don't say it!lalala~~~"
Xue Qi just refused to tell me the reason or excuse for her rejection of Xu Bin, and in the end, I didn't get the reason for Xue Qi's rejection of Xu Bin from Xue Qi's mouth. This reason has been a mystery to me for a long time.
It wasn't until I got home that day, and I was chatting with Confinement in France on QQ in the evening, that I learned the answer.
On QQ, I told her all about Xueqi and Xu Bin's relationship during this time, as well as Xueqi's running away from home and my illness in the past few days.
Regarding this story, Yuezi's evaluation is: "What a thrilling story." It's a shame not to see it for yourself.
I said with some dissatisfaction, you gloat. “
Yuezi replied with a smiling expression and said, "No, of course I don't want that to happen." I just think it's a pity that I didn't see the boy who confessed to Qiqi with my own eyes. It can be seen that the boy is also a separated family, and the boy probably lives with his father all the time, so he has a weird personality. Anyway, brother, didn't you do it before? In comparison, you didn't dare to confess to other girls in junior high school, Xu Bin is much bolder than you. Hehe. ”
I sent an angry expression and said, "Are you encouraging Xue Qi to fall in love, you try it again." ”
Yuezi sent an expression that was sealed and put on her mouth, and then said apologetically: "Dog sister, dog sister." But, brother, I finally saw you jealous. Hehe. ”
I replied: "...... Go, you fish me again. “
After that, I talked to Yuezi about Xue Qi's rejection of Xu Bin, and I said that I was curious about how Xue Qi rejected Xu Bin, but Xue Qi just refused to tell me. Gives me some itching.
Yuezi replied, "I can guess this." When I was in junior high school, some boys confessed to me. At that time, I rejected them all for one reason. ”
I anxiously asked, "What reason?"
Yuezi smiled and said, "The secret of girls." I can't say that. “
I was furious: "Can you be a girl? ”
Yuezi replied with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't sell Guanzi, but don't tell Xue Qi." I guess the reason why Xue Qi rejected Xu Bin was probably "
……
Everything is as if nothing happened.
The relationship between me and Xueqi has finally recovered after a small turmoil.
And just more than 1 month after Xue Qi ran away from home, Xue Qi got the fourth place in the class in the final exam, and Xu Bin also transferred out of Xue Qi's class at the end of that semester.
Since then, Xu Bin has never appeared in my life and Xueqi's life......
The story of Xueqi being confessed by a boy for the first time in her life came to an end silently.
……
Of course, despite this, there is still a mystery in my heart that has not been solved, that is, I still don't know why Xueqi's grades plummeted at the beginning, and I still don't know why her grades would inexplicably decline so much for several months in a row.
It wasn't until one day not long after, by chance, that my work computer crashed, and when I borrowed Xueqi's computer to check the Internet, I accidentally learned the answer to the matter.
At that time, I typed the word "I" on the Baidu search bar, but the search bar automatically displayed the following search records:
"I like my dad, what should I do?"
I was startled when I saw that record, and then my heart beat rapidly.
I looked around, and after making sure that Xue Qi was not there, I clicked on her other search records, only to find a lot of keywords that left me dumbfounded.
Those keywords include "love father", "father marry", "I like my father, he likes other women", "stepmother" and so on.
Xue Qi actually searched for these things on the Internet behind my back......
I was truly shocked.
However, when I saw these search records, I felt a raging fire rise in my heart.
A warm and bright flame.
My whole body trembled with excitement.
The dark clouds that had been dense in my heart finally dispersed at that moment.
So that's it......
It turns out that this is Xueqi's little secret.
Thinking of the frequent time I got along with Yuhui in those months, and thinking of those days when Xueqi struggled between me and Xu Bin......
All the answers came out.
It coincides with the answer that Yuezi told me.
Looking at the search records on Xueqi's computer web page, I laughed unconsciously.
Xueqi, it's really cute.
I said in my heart.
Then, I closed the web page, gently closed Xueqi's computer, put it away, and walked out of the bedroom.
I'm not going to reveal her little secret.
Let this secret live in our hearts.
This twist and turn all started with this computer, and in the end, it was finally this computer.
……
Of course, the end of the turmoil does not mean the end of the little legend of my life with Xueqi.
On the third day of the winter vacation in the first half of the second year of Xueqi's junior high school, I ushered in our new story.
That was the story that began on January 19 of the year when Xue Qi was 15 years old.
On January 19th, the third day of the Xueqi winter holiday, it was also a dimly cloudy day, the wind was strong and cold, and the sky was so cloudy that it was almost impossible to see the day.
It was the day before the Spring Festival, and the company had to empty the last batch of goods, so I went to the company early in the morning to supervise the situation so as not to go wrong at the last minute.
In fact, I was worried, without me, the managers in the company can also do very well, but that day I really had nothing to do, with the idea of going to the company to see the good out of the door, and almost two hours later, I returned home, and the next few days, because of the Spring Festival holiday, there is nothing in the company, and I finally began to enjoy leisure.
At about half past ten, I got home, and then I drove the car into the garage in the courtyard, and just out of the garage, there was a soft knock on the door.
The knock on the door was very soft, and when I looked back at the villa, I frowned and went to open the door when I thought that Xue Qi was in the villa.
The door opened, but I froze.
Because there was a person outside the door that I didn't expect.
A little girl.
A little girl with a big stupid bear doll in her arms, a shawl with a disheveled hair, a shabby yellow shirt, and a dirty little girl, or rather, a little Lori.
The little girl looked to be in her teens, not even as old as Xueqi.
The little girl was dirty, her face was covered with ash, her clothes were covered with patches and folds, and she was less than 1.4 meters tall.
Seeing me, the little girl with messy hair raised her head, and I was stunned.
"Little sister. You...... Who are you looking for?"
"Are you Yang Jiandong?"
The little girl looked at me with the eyes of Furui Wubo, and I was startled when I saw the eyes of the little girl in front of me.
No way...... What a pair of eyes?
Empty, resentful, tired, and indescribable...... It feels like ...... Hatred?
This girl seems to hate me?
But do I have a grudge against this girl?
Or rather, do I know her?
How did I not know?
But how does she know me?
Looking into the little girl's eyes, I froze, and then put on a smile:
"Yes, hehe, this is my home, and I am Yang Jiandong. You...... Whose child is it?"
To my surprise, after listening to my answer, the little girl's eyes turned gloomy.
She stared at me and said in a cold, voice, utterly out of her age:
"I am your father's and your stepmother's daughter. My name is Shen Moli. ”
Stepmother?
Sink...... Mo Li?Jasmine?
Because the pronunciation is not very clear, I don't know if the girl's name is Mo Li or Jasmine, probably ...... Maybe Jasmine.
But at that moment, I suddenly understood.
The seeds of calamity planted more than a decade ago...... Today, it finally sprouts.
I finally couldn't escape it.
The little girl still looked at me with resentful eyes, and then she said to me in a hoarse voice:
"My mom died, and she had no other relatives. Only if you can take me in, otherwise...... I'm going to die tonight. ”
The little girl's words were really amazing, and the words she said were completely adult-like, and my face stiffened with shock.
"Little sister, what are you talking nonsense, what about your mother?" I still couldn't believe it, or rather, I was convincing myself in my heart not to believe what was happening in front of me. “”
The dirty girl named Jasmine was still staring at me, and then she suddenly lowered her head a little shyly.
"This. Help me get it. The little girl did not answer my question, but suddenly handed me the big cloth bear in her hand.
Seeing the little girl's movements, I hesitated, I looked at the shabby rag doll bear in her hand and frowned.
Inside...... There wouldn't be any explosives, would there?
At that time, I actually had such an absurd idea.
Perhaps, the mechanism really left too deep a shadow on my heart.
Am I so timid that I don't even dare to take a little girl's rag doll?
I laughed to myself. Then, with a strange feeling, I bent down to pick up the big stupid bear in the girl's hand.
However, just as I took the big stupid bear, the girl suddenly raised her head and looked at me with angry eyes, and then, before I could react, she suddenly stretched out her little hand
"Smack!"
I was slapped in the face with a crisp and loud slap from her.
She hit me?!
I was actually slapped by a little girl?!!
I looked at the little girl in disbelief, staring at her with a grim face, and the little girl, or rather, Jasmine, had a grim face.
The little girl looked at me with eyes that were burning with hatred, and said word by word in a fierce tone:
"It's for my mom!"
Jasmine debuts, the last heroine of this book, and the last little Lori to appear~!!
