Chapter 168: City
Incredible?
Lose one's head?
Hard to accept?
Or does it mean that it doesn't sound like real but has a fatalistic premonition?
Or rather......
For a moment, Ruan Wan's heart was in turmoil, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Until-
She felt Shen Ziyu put her hand on his forehead, and the words he said were rare...... Or the fragility she had never seen in him, already pleading deeply and even pleading.
"Get all right, please, don't ...... again"
Do not leave him again.
Don't leave him alone in this familiar and strange world.
Thousands of words, blocked in my throat, almost choked.
“……”
If this is false, then it is simply possible to confuse the truth with the false, not to mention, what is the need for him to lie to her?
Ruan Wan is not a fool - maybe she is really stupid when facing Du Jinnian, but that is also because she willingly blindfolded her eyes and blocked her ears for him and pretended to be stupid, Shen Ziyu has never enjoyed this kind of treatment, and it is still the case at this moment - people who have loved someone deeply have the ability to distinguish between feelings and feelings.
But the clearer she knew this, the more complicated her feelings became.
The things that were forgotten intentionally or unintentionally in the past naturally emerged from the memory box at this moment.
She remembered that when she went to Qiao's house for the first time in her previous life, she dragged her suitcase to describe a wolf and was ashamed of herself, but she felt a gaze that could not be ignored while walking, she quietly raised her head and saw a handsome young man who was about the same as herself standing not far away, holding a ball in his arm, tilting his head slightly, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of unruly color. She had never seen such a person before, and it seemed so innate that she couldn't help but yearn for it, and she mustered up the courage to smile at him, and he didn't smile at her, but his eyes became a little surprised—he looked at her as if he were looking at something incomprehensible. Soon, she discovered that he, like most of the people in that courtyard, belonged to another world for her.
……
She also remembered that she used to envy the box of beautiful candies that Joe wished to have, and she didn't want to have it, but she just wanted to take a closer look, but she couldn't lower her head and ask for it. She was naïve at the time, and she had enough wishes to make many people laugh off their big teeth - although few of them were eventually fulfilled, and candy was not one of them. His appearance was so without warning, like a summer storm, suddenly blocking her who was alone to buy something. His behavior was also so incomprehensible, he was obviously dissatisfied with her eyes, but he actually threw her a box of more beautiful candies.
At that moment, she was not unmoved, she even stayed where she was, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.
Ruan Wan couldn't help but admit that at that moment, she felt that she was cared for. At that time, she didn't know whether Shen Ziyu's actions were unintentional or out of pity or something else, she really wanted to thank him. But she had no money, and she didn't have anything else to give back as a gift, so she thought about it, and finally remembered that she had learned to knit with her grandmother, so she decided to make something for him, such as a big cat, a big cat, and a big cat......
And then......
The box of candy was identified as stolen goods.
Her mother blamed her, thinking she had lost her face, Qiao Shuqi despised her, thinking that she was not good by nature, and Wu's mother sarcastically said that she was used to petty theft......
She explained, and no one listened. When she said that this box of candy was given by Shen Ziyu, Qiao Shuqi smiled sharply in her voice, "He sent you this? Are you teasing me? If he asks you to give this to your wish, I can barely believe it", she didn't say anything more, but the look in her eyes clearly said everything - with you, you are also worthy of letting him send something?
The look stabbed her, and she didn't defend herself, but she was left with a thorn in her heart.
Could it really be that she was wrong? Is this really what he asked her to give Joe's wish? And she kept it by herself?
If this is true, how ...... Shame on you.
The cruel reality seems to prove it, after which he starts bullying her, as if he hates her. She thought, "That's right," and her heart, which had been a little warmer because of the box of candy, became cold again.
She burned the big yellow and white cat that had been braided, and buried the little expectations she had had for him.
For a long time, she regarded these as black history that could never be touched, but now someone is suing her that this qiē is not true.
Maybe there was more to it than that, and there were many, many things, and all she knew was a small part of the truth, or it wasn't the truth at all. This feeling of "reshuffling the cards" made her a little uncomfortable, and she didn't know how to react for a while, so she instinctively closed her eyes and pretended not to wake up.
Just then, the door was pushed open.
Someone strode in, and the familiar footsteps made Ruan Wan's heart beat wildly.
Shen Ziyu instinctively turned his head, his brows furrowed unconsciously, like a fierce beast defending his beloved treasure, grinning and wanting to tear apart any pretender and disturber. But in the next second, the beast was pinched into a soft jelly monster slime by an invisible big hand. Most men in this world have a natural enemy, whose name is "mother-in-law", and the one Shen Ershao encountered is particularly fierce, it is the mother-in-law of the mother-in-law.
So it's a matter of course that he withered.
He subconsciously stood up and moved out of the way a little.
Grandma glanced at Shen Ziyu, her eyes stayed on the paws that he was still holding on to her granddaughter's hand for a second, and then fell to the bed. She looked at her granddaughter, who was haggard and extremely emaciated, and her heart suddenly ached, and her whole body staggered.
"Grandma!"
"Mom!"
Su Fanghua and Qiao Xinyuan, who were following closely behind her, hurriedly stepped forward and supported the old man left and right.
"Mom, you pay attention to your body, Xiaowan is already like this, if you have another third ......" Su Fanghua opened her mouth to persuade.
"Shut up!"
“……”
The grandmother turned her head and looked at her daughter sternly, and didn't give her face in front of other people: "What is the meaning of 'already like this', is this what a mother should say?"
"I ......"
"And you!" Grandma turned to look directly at the person on the bed, and hissed, "You're such an adult, it's not enough to sleep for so many days, don't you get me up!"
When the rest of the room heard this, they all showed unbearable expressions.
What could be more cruel than "a white-haired person sending a black-haired person"? At the moment, Ruan Wan is not ...... But the situation is indeed getting worse day by day, and any loving elder will be in pain to the point of being irrepressible when he sees this scene.
"If you don't get up again, beware of me hitting you. Grandma shook off the two pairs of hands that were holding her and walked towards the bed.
The rest of the people were fine, Qiao blinked his wish and burst into tears.
However......
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Ruan Wan was startled by the sudden arrival of her grandmother, knowing in her heart that she must have made the old man sad now, she quickly opened her eyes, anxious and panicked, and accidentally lost her breath. She could barely breathe, and hurriedly turned over with the last of her strength, lying on the side of the bed and coughing repeatedly.
Grandma: "......"
Others: "......"
Everyone except Ruan Wan was dumbfounded.
The grandmother began to wonder if her daughter's crying on the phone was a bit exaggerated, what "Xiaowan is unconscious", what "it's been three days", and what "it's not good to go on like this"...... It's all nonsense! Isn't it waking up as soon as you scream? And it's the same as when I was a child, and it's easy to choke when I'm in a hurry.
If Grandma was just suspicious, everyone else was in tears and roared in their hearts - what the hell!!
If they had known that "Grandma's Call" would be so effective, they would have personally invited the old man to come or recorded a video of the old man shouting to get up, okay......? Woke up...... Woke up...... It's just -- people have nothing to say and can't complain!
Shen Ziyu sensed the deep malice coming from this world - he had to admit that he had indeed secretly hoped that she would wake up in his own call. Although he also knew that this was a "pipe dream", it turned out to be too ...... Of course, he wasn't unhappy, as long as she was healthy, it was better than anything else......! Too...... He didn't know what to say!
The ward was in a state of embarrassment for a moment.
In the strange atmosphere, Ruan Wan finally regained her breath, and she regained a little strength, she tried very hard to sit up straight, panting low while looking at her grandmother, and showed a smile - she was eager to prove that she was okay, but she accidentally forgot that her disguise work was not in place. Whether it is a haggard face or an emaciated body, it proves what kind of physical and mental torture she has suffered before.
Grandma looked at her little granddaughter carefully, she didn't need to weigh her to know how much she had lost weight, how could she not know? This child was brought up by her, from only as long as an arm to now a little taller than her, from only a few pounds to now she can no longer hold it, from white and tender and lovely to today's radiant ...... She has witnessed her little granddaughter grow into what she is today little by little - if she is a craftsman, then this child is undoubtedly her most successful masterpiece and the greatest pride of her life. And for now......
Grandma raised her hand tremblingly and stretched out her hand towards Ruan Wan.
Ruan Wan felt that the old man wanted to touch her cheek now, so she raised her head obediently and put on a "begging to touch" pose, and then she was slapped in the face.
"Smack!"
When there was a small but clear crisp sound, the rest of the room was stunned again.
The strength of my grandmother, whose hands were always soft and shaking, was not too great, but Ruan Wan was even weaker, so she was naturally hit in the face. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover her face, and turned her head to look at the person in front of her in disbelief - it was the first time in her life that she had been slapped by her grandmother.
The surprise was so great that her whole mind stopped, and she didn't know what to do to react. The memories of getting up in the past quietly popped up, causing her to say in a ghostly way: "Didn't you talk about getting up and not beat me?"
When my grandmother, who was still full of regrets, heard this, she suddenly became angry, and gave her a few more blows on the head: "I'll just beat it, what's wrong?!" Can this child be a little more annoying?
Ruan Wan's mind was now spinning, aggrieved, weak-hearted, afraid, and attached...... A lot of love came to her heart all at once, and the person standing in front of her was her dearest and most trustworthy person, and her tears suddenly fell irrepressibly.
"Grandma......" she choked up, "I was wrong......
Grandma's hand paused, she looked at her little granddaughter who was crying, closed her eyes, and sighed helplessly: This child is always so distressing when she cries.
Regardless of the silent communication between the grandparents and grandchildren, in the eyes of others, this scene is like this-
Ruan Wan, who refused to get up in bed, was woken up by her grandmother!
Grandma gave Ruan Wan a slap!
Ruan Wan cried and admitted her mistake with "whoops", saying that she would never dare not get up again!
Complete.
What is going on with this feeling from "Blue Life and Death Love" to "The Growth of Chinese Children"???
