NO.16 On the occasion of parting
Thanks to his father's phone call, thinking of the mature and steady man, Gan Tian's eyes suddenly became extremely calm. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Gan Tian and Gan Ruo glanced at each other, and tacitly went in opposite directions.
Gan Tian came to the balcony and answered the phone.
"Hey, how is Daddy?" Gan Tian, who had long been obedient, launched a greeting offensive first. According to my father's words, after the preemptive expression of his enthusiasm, the rest of the words will be easier to say.
"Don't give me any of these nonsense, I know you've only thought of me these days when you're short of money. On the other end of the line came a majestic but peaceful, steady and cordial voice. The owner of this voice is Gan Tian's father - Gan Xiangsheng. To be honest, Gan Tian didn't know him very well, especially after his business got bigger and bigger. A large part of Gan Tian's understanding of him comes from his mother, and according to Gan Tian's mother's words, he is simply a model of a living life counterattack. From a farmer to a successful person in the eyes of others, from a profiteer with nothing to the CEO of a group, he has completed all this with his own efforts. The biggest goal in his life is to achieve the take-off of the entire Gan family, but Gan Tian feels that this goal is difficult to achieve. Because in the past, there was no Gan family at all. Now those people in the family are all people with the same surname that he gathered with affection and kindness, and many of them joined after changing their surnames. But no matter what, he is already a standard successful person. Even with Gan Tian, he has been upgraded to a rich second generation with nothing to do.
"Dad, you're always expecting things like God, it's hard to get along with others. Gan Tian complained.
"No, as long as I don't say anything. β
"Dad, you're good. β
"Let's stop talking about this nonsense. I asked directly, how are you and Gan Ruo developing?"
"What do you mean by that?" Gan Tian's voice suddenly lowered.
"You don't really think that I've bought you a sister to come back. Your mother and I have been on a business trip for a while now!" said Gan Xiangsheng with a smile.
Gan Tian turned around and looked at Gan Ruo, who was talking and laughing at his mother on the other end of the phone at the railing on the second floor, and strengthened his thoughts. Then Gan Tian spoke unceremoniously, "I'll also tell you clearly, I've listened to you almost everything since I was a child, but I won't listen to you only this one." Xiao Ruo is Xiao Ruo, my Gan Tian's sister, no one can force her to do anything. β
A slightly mocking laugh was heard.
"I can't imagine that you are still so naΓ―ve, are you willing to watch her marry someone else in the future?" Gan Xiangsheng asked rhetorically.
Gan Tian hesitated for a moment, but still said strongly, "That's Xiao Ruo's own business, it doesn't have much to do with me or you, it's up to her to decide." β
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that. Gan Xiangsheng paused for a moment and said solemnly, "I heard about what happened to you there, listen to your tone, you and Gan Ruo are fine." β
"Thanks to me, it's all right. Gan Tian said casually. Gan Tian didn't have any intention of telling him that he was the purple giant, thinking that even a person like him who had seen a lot of wind and waves would be scared to lose his mind for a few seconds.
"That's good. Gan Xiangsheng's voice suddenly relaxed a lot, and he continued, "It seems that that the small city is no longer suitable for you and Gan Ruo's growth, and your mother and I have decided to let you come to Beichuan Middle School." I've completed the transfer of school status for you and Gan Ruo, and you can continue your school in about two days. The house has been bought, and it is near the school, so it is much easier to get to and from school. Since the finishing work will probably be done tonight, you must leave early tomorrow morning. I've booked my ticket for 7 o'clock, remember not to be late. β
"Seven o'clock!" Gan Tian was taken aback, "It's so early!"
"What? Do you have anything else to do, like go see the girl you're obsessed with. I've told you a long time ago, like that......" Before Gan Xiangsheng's words were finished, he was hung up by Gan Tian fiercely.
"You don't have the qualifications to decide someone else's future. After coldly spitting out these words, Gan Tian let out a sigh of relief and stuffed his phone into his trouser pocket. When Gan Tian brought Lin Jing to his house, Gan Xiangsheng behaved very normally in front of her. But as soon as she left, Gan Xiangsheng clearly told Gan Tian that this relationship would not last long, and persuaded him to give up as soon as possible. Although what happened later proved that Gan Xiangsheng was like a god, the various reasons he listed at the beginning, such as 'discord in status and family background', make it difficult for Gan Tian to let go to this day.
After answering the phone, Gan Tian lay on the cold railing and stood for about ten minutes, and then was called back to sleep by Gan Ruo. Although Gan Ruo later told Gan Tian that in fact, he was only lying there for three minutes before he couldn't stand the cold, and he touched back to the room. But what does it matter? As long as Gan Tian thinks so, his behavior at that time will have enough weight to support him to get up at six o'clock tomorrow and sneak out of here without Gan Ruo.
The next day, in room 610 in one of the best public hospitals in Lingjiang County
At about half past six, the girl who lived here turned on the lamp, took out a few books from her schoolbag on the side, put them in front of her, and prepared to start studying. You know, in the late autumn season of the Han River Plain, the genius of this point is bright, and the streets are basically only the sanitation workers with special jobs silently maintaining the city.
Just as she opened an English book and was about to come up with five hundred words, there was a sharp knock on the door.
Who is it so early? Is it too early for those government condolences personnel? Although she had doubts in her heart, Lin Jing still said very politely, "Please come in!"
The door opened, and Gan Tian, who was carrying a bowl of wontons, walked in slowly.
"It's Gan Tian!" she was obviously taken aback, and in a panic she got all her books on the ground. She tried to bend down to pick it up, but her hand retracted halfway through, her hand not long enough. Somewhat embarrassed, Lin Jing immediately lowered her head and looked at her uneasy trembling hands lying flat on her knees.
They all chose to be silent for a while, but this silence did not last long before it was interrupted by a familiar routine she had started first.
"You're here. She said lightly.
"I'm coming. Gan Tian continued.
"I thought you weren't coming. β
"But I'm already here. β
"You shouldn't have come. β
"But I'm here anyway. β
"Why come?"
"I wanted to see you, so I came. β
"Then ......" Seeing that Lin Jing was out of control, Gan Tian hurriedly shook the things in his hand and said, "Your favorite breakfast, if you tear it down, it will be cold." β
Lin Jing hummed softly, then nodded, looking at Gan Tian with the same gentle eyes as before. Gan Tian pulled over the adjustable table used in the hospital, pushed it down in front of her, and put the steaming bowl of wontons on it. She seems to be in good spirits after two days here, and although her skin is no longer as radiant as it used to be, her eyes still show that everything is getting better. Looking at the books scattered on the ground, a bitter feeling spread in Gan Tian's heart.
Gan Tian bent down and quipped while picking up these books from the ground for her, "It's all this time, you still want to read!"
"Hmm. Thank you...... Your ......" Lin Jing stammered suddenly.
"Ravioli. Gan Tian added in due course. In fact, Gan Tian knew that she had forgotten what this thing was called, after all, she should have never eaten this kind of wonton at all. Lin Jing's life is all dependent on government relief, and that little money can only maintain her physical health, but cannot give her any right to enjoy. Gan Tian still remembers taking her out to eat, no matter what he ordered, she would say that it was her favorite thing to eat. Gan Tian felt that she should be telling the truth, but unfortunately, that time could never be returned. The reason why I chose this bowl of wonton today is simply because there is only one store that will open so early, and there is no special significance.
Lin Jing slowly scooped up a wonton with a spoon and put it into his mouth, and then his face changed.
"What's wrong?" asked Gan Tian, who had been staring at her, nervously.
She smiled reluctantly, swallowed the wonton and said, "It's okay, it's just a little hot." β
"Then let's eat later, I just happen to have a few pieces of information to bring to you this time. Seeing Lin Jing put on a deferential look, Gan Tian continued, "Don't worry, I've already asked someone." The school is ruined, but you'll be transferred to a better school, or maybe a blessing in disguise, or you'll be able to go to one of the big cities in the capital. After all, the world will never abandon you if you are as good as you. β
Lin Jing's expression darkened, and he looked at Gan Tian and stopped talking.
"By the way, one more thing, I'm leaving here to study in another city. After saying goodbye today, I'm afraid there will be no chance to meet in the future. Gan Tian said in a heavy tone.
Lin Jing's oh was long and soft.
At this moment, Gan Tian's mobile phone rang, and when he opened it, he saw that it was a threatening text message from Gan Ruo. Probably brother, if you don't come again, I'll leave you there or something.
"Are you leaving?" Lin Jing asked sensitively.
"I'm afraid I'll have to go, goodbye. After saying that, Gan Tian stood up and prepared to leave. However, just as Gan Tian turned around, Lin Jing stopped him loudly. When Gan Tian turned to look at her again, she pursed her lips and said, "At least, tell me where you went?"
Without hesitation, Gan Tian took out his mobile phone and put an electronic picture in front of her. Above that, there was a huge crystal pyramid, the landmark of the city he was about to visit.
"It's a landmark of my city, and if you come here in the future, maybe we'll see you again. But I really have to go now. After saying this quickly, Gan Tian turned around and ran to the door of the ward.
Just when Gan Tian had already stepped out of the door with one foot, Lin Jing's voice caught up from behind, "Will you forget me?"
Gan Tian's footsteps froze, but he didn't look back, just laughed softly, "I tried this a year ago, but it seems to have failed." Regardless of whether she heard it or not, Gan Tian rushed downstairs, rushed into the taxi waiting downstairs in the hospital, and then went straight to the airport with Gan Ruo.
Gan Tian, who left in a hurry, naturally didn't hear the sentence "goodbye" said by Lin Jing, who was in tears. β
After living in this small city for so many years, he suddenly wanted to leave, and Gan Tian was still a little reluctant in his heart. But when I think of everything I have encountered here in the past two days, the only remaining nostalgia for my homeland has been wiped out by the heavy reality. After all, people still have to choose life, and life chooses to leave, and leaving means a new beginning.
Gan Tian didn't know much about Beichuan Middle School, but for the city he was about to arrive in, Huaizhou, he probably knew that it was a bustling city. I heard that this city was rated as the top ten cities with excellent environment in country H last year, and I think it should be a garden-like city, Gan Tian can't help but look forward to it. But the specific situation, he has always seen is believing.
At this time, Gan Tianzheng, who was sitting on the plane seat, did not say a word, looking out the window with a sad expression, the wind and clouds in his eyes were changing, and his lips kept shaking, as if he was silently reciting something.
It was only half an hour before Huaizhou Airport, and Gan Tian still didn't show any change in his posture. Gan Ruo on the side really couldn't stand it anymore, so he leaned into Gan Tian's ear and said loudly, "Brother, I know you can't bear that person named Lin Jing." But you've been sad for so long, it's time to let yourself go!"
Gan Tian trembled his lips and turned his head, looked straight into Gan Ruo's puzzled eyes, forcibly suppressed the disgusting feeling in his heart, and said, "Xiao Ruo, you don't understand anything at all. β
"Wait, what's wrong with you, brother. Looking at my somewhat blue face, Gan Ruo couldn't help but get nervous.
"I ......didn't find out until today," Gan Tian retched, then continued...... I'm actually airsick!"
"Don't say anything, don't say anything. Gan Ruo covered her face, looking helpless and disappointed. She paused, then comforted Gan Tiandao, "It's okay, we're going to land soon." β
"Land!" Gan Tian's eyes widened.
At this moment, the captain's delightful voice rang out in the cabin: "Dear passengers, your GH74272 flight is about to arrive. All passengers are asked to fasten their seatbelts, we are about to start landing. All passengers are asked to fasten their seatbelts, we are about to start landing. All passengers are asked to fasten their seatbelts, we are about to start landing. β¦β¦
