20. Wandering in a foreign land
In the lobby of the hospital, a woman in a Chanel dress raised her hand to stroke her long charming hair, and looked through the thick glass wall to the road next to the hospital, where a Camry that looked like a rented car was parked, and Ye Ning stood next to it.
Ye Ning is in a long dress and trousers, with long hair, slender and elegant, beautiful and attractive, very chic and moving, she is holding her mobile phone, making calls again and again.
The Chanel woman looked at Ye Ning outside, frowned, and asked the secretary next to her: "That woman seems to have been wandering around outside for several days?" ”
The secretary nodded: "Mr. Su, yes." She also seems to have come to find Mr. Xiao, and I saw her asking at the front desk. ”
This person known as Mr. Su slowly took out his mobile phone from his bag, it was a mobile phone of a bit of an age, this model was listed a few years ago, but Xiao Yue was old-fashioned, and since he could use it, he never changed it.
At this time, there was always a phone number in that mobile phone trying to dial in, and the name of the incoming call was stored here: Ning.
Mr. Su's eyes moved, adjusted the vibration of the mobile phone to silent, let the phone continue to call, and then put the mobile phone in his bag.
She said to the secretary next to her, "Go find a nurse in a hospital and find a way to get her out." If she asked about Mr. Xiao, she would say that Mr. Xiao was not in this hospital at all. ”
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she said to the secretary: "This person is a reporter from a media, it is possible that the previous news was spread by her, and now she has chased her to the United States, we must be careful about this person, you don't talk about this matter, please always nurse to drive her away." ”
Secretary: "Okay. American nurses here are more rigid, so I want to find a way to find a Chinese nurse who can talk well and always be able to understand people. ”
Mr. Su nodded: "No matter what method is used, in short, let her know that Mr. Xiao is no longer here." ”
She lowered her head and thought for a while: "I tried to tell her a fake news, just say that Mr. Xiao has been sent to a nursing home in Los Angeles." ”
The secretary nodded and went to do it right away.
Mr. Su squinted his eyes and looked at Ye Ning not far away through the glass, but kept repeating in his heart, Yue Ning, Yue, Ning......
At this time, Lu Fei drove into the hospital, wearing big sunglasses, carrying a thermal lunch box, walked in with a happy expression, saw Mr. Su talking to the secretary, and asked casually: "Yinyin, what are you talking about?" ”
Su Yin is one of the members of the President's Office of Yuening Group.
Su Yin hurriedly smiled, her body moved, and she slightly blocked the view to the outside: "It's nothing, I was talking about the food in the hospital just now, and Xiao Yue probably isn't used to it." It's good for you, you said that you came to accompany the patient, but you went out to eat, drink and have fun by yourself for a few days, but you threw Xiao Yue to me. ”
Lu Fei nodded: "It's too unpalatable, what is this thing called, if it goes on like this, I'd rather eat egg scones and gutter oil from Chinese stalls!" But fortunately, I just made something to eat, boiled chicken soup, I don't know if the heat is in place, anyway, it is better than the hospital. ”
Su Yin smiled: "Xiao Yue is eating less now, let him drink some casually." ”
With that, the two of them walked straight to the side of the hallway.
Walking through the quiet corridors, the two of them came to a spacious and bright ward here, in this ward, Xiao Yue was half-lying there, his head resting on the pillow, his eyes squinting, and his sword eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.
He was pale and thin, as he was accustomed to after a serious illness, but on the whole he was in good spirits, and it was obvious that he was recovering well.
Lu Fei hurriedly took out his insulated lunch box: "I've brought you something delicious, now you're blessed, I didn't expect me to be so virtuous!" ”
Xiao Yue opened his eyes quietly, and after looking at Lu Fei, he looked at Su Yin on the side.
"Give me your phone." He had only one simple sentence.
When Lu Fei heard this, he suddenly had the urge to roll up his sleeves and beat him: "What do you want your phone for?" Aren't you sick? Hurry up and cultivate your body, don't worry about the company's affairs! ”
Su Yin smiled and nodded: "Yes, I will convey it to you if there is anything, the mobile phone has a lot of radiation, and you are a patient, don't be in a hurry to work first." ”
Saying that, she inadvertently went to the bathroom, and when she came back, she still had a smile on her face, took out her mobile phone in front of everyone, and gave it to Lu Fei: "By the way, you take his mobile phone, I have to go out to play these days, you take care of him here, I'm tired, I don't care." ”
Lu Fei took the mobile phone, opened it and looked at it, there were a bunch of missed calls, he shook his head and sighed: "Fortunately, your mobile phone number didn't explode, otherwise the media would have exploded." ”
Xiao Yue stretched out his hand and looked at Lu Fei's gaze that could not be refused, meaning to ask for a mobile phone.
Lu Fei couldn't help it, shrugged his shoulders, and handed it to him.
He took it and scanned the call log.
There were so many missed calls, and there was no one in this that he longed for.
In fact, thinking about it, it was impossible in the first place.
There is no emotion in his eyes, and no one can tell whether he is disappointed or sad.
He handed the phone to Lu Fei again, closed his eyes slightly, and said softly in a low voice, "I'm not hungry." ”
And at this moment, when Ye Ning came to the front desk again to harass her, a yellow-skinned front desk lady who looked like a Chinese person finally couldn't help but sigh and told her: "Miss, the Xiao Yue you are looking for is no longer here." ”
Ye Ning listened and hurriedly asked, but the other party gave her the name of the sanatorium: "I also heard that I may have gone here, but I don't know anything else." ”
Ye Ning thanked this person very gratefully and came out in a hurry.
The address of the new sanatorium was very close to the place where she had studied, Ye Ning went to stay in first to vacate the house, and then drove straight to the sanatorium.
All the way, there were motorcycles on the highway, submarines were flying over, and there were convertibles that were free and crazy, Ye Ning drove silently, thinking that this was a free and chic country, as if he was the only one on this highway who was preoccupied and carrying a heavy shell, looking for the man who suddenly disappeared in his life.
She came to the sanatorium, the rules in the sanatorium are not as strict as the hospital, the other party kindly helped her check the recent convalescent staff, and finally the person shook his head politely, and said with a smile, We don't have a person named Xiao Yue here at all.
The Americans didn't understand Xiao Yue's pronunciation, it was stiff and strange to say, Ye Ning smiled numbly when he heard this answer, thanked the others, and turned to leave.
She dialed the phone number that belonged to Xiao Yue again, however, this time there was no dull ringtone, only a beeping busy tone.
No matter how many times she dialed, nothing changed.
So far, she is indeed a little disappointed. Maybe from the beginning, she got the wrong address, but if so, why did the Chinese nurse say it was in a nursing home? Or did she just lie to herself? Or maybe she got the name of the sanatorium wrong.
Ye Ning stood alone outside the sanatorium, and after wandering for more than ten minutes, he finally decided to drive to a friend.
Chen Shanshan, one of her best friends when she was studying in the United States, is also the person who witnessed her and Huo Chen's emotional experience. After graduation, Ye Ning returned to China, while Chen Shanshan obtained the qualification to stay in school and became a lecturer here.
has been in touch for the past few years, Chen Shanshan is not married, and recognizes Nan Nan as her godson, sometimes Nan Nan and Chen Shanshan have videos, one by one. Shanshan will also send some children's supplies and clothes to Ye Ning from time to time.
Chen Shanshan lives in an apartment surrounded by red maples, which is not big, she is single and does not like to live in too big ones.
When Chen Shanshan saw Ye Ning, she was naturally surprised and excited, and complained to her a lot: "Why don't you say anything when you come to the United States, where are you going!" ”
After saying that, she found out that something was wrong with Ye Ning, and the whole person was wilted.
Chen Shanshan was taken aback: "What's wrong with you?" Alas, what's the matter, what about my godson? You came alone? ”
Ye Ning shook his head: "I came to the United States for some things, let's not talk about the specifics, your godson is in China, I entrusted him to others." ”
When Chen Shanshan saw her like this, she didn't ask for it first, and she was hot there to cook for her.
Hearing her cook, Ye Ning was helpless: "You can also cook?" ”
Chen Shanshan is a housework idiot, not to mention cooking, she doesn't know how to place anything at home, it's messy all day long, it's just that now Ye Ning looks at it, and there are a bunch of miscellaneous texts on the cabinet next to her.
Chen Shanshan rolled up her sleeves and held a shovel, a little unconvinced: "I can cook now, you wait, I'll make you a little fried meat!" ”
Ye Ning rarely felt a little like laughing: "Okay, you can do it, I'll wait." ”
She used to cook for Chen Shanshan, and it was rare to be able to eat what she made? Let's wait and see!
Who knew that as soon as she sat there to take a breath, a smell of oil smoke came over, this is an open kitchen, and it is not like domestic gas or gas, it is an electric stove, a bad grasp of the heat, the smell of oil smoke is very large, but this range hood is not powerful.
Chen Shanshan shouted: "Hurry up!" ”
She didn't need to elaborate, Ye Ning immediately understood the meaning, took a piece of paper from the side, picked up a chair and stood next to the fire alarm next to her, and fanned it wildly.
This is what I used to do often, cooking a dish, as soon as there is smoke, the alarm will go off, and the landlord may be angry, so at this time, I will quickly fan the sensor of the fire alarm.
After fanning for a long time, it finally stopped, Ye Ning stroked her forehead, she hadn't rested well in the past few days, and now she was so busy, she was really dizzy.
She held the piece of paper, sat on the chair, and sighed: "Don't toss, let's bake a pizza and eat it!" ”
As she said this, her gaze inadvertently fell on the piece of paper.
Here's a picture.
In the photo, Chen Shanshan and a group of graduates wearing doctoral caps are a group photo.
One of them, that face is so familiar.
