Text: Chapter XIX

When Wei Pengfei went to work all day in a uncertain state, flew home at dusk, and walked into his living room, he was surprised to find that Ling Shan was leaning on the sofa, holding a wine glass in his hand. There was no light in the room, Chu Chu and Ah Xiang were not there, she sat there quietly, quietly hugging the twilight of the window, quietly trapped in some kind of contemplation and meditation. "Where's Chu Chu?" He asked. "Chu Chu and Ah Xiang are both at my house."

"And you're here alone?" He was surprised, and walked over, he picked up the wine glass in her hand and looked at it, it was okay, just a light glass of red wine. He sat down on the low stool opposite her, pulled the stool close to her, he faced her, eyes to hers, and then, he closed her hands in his own hands, and said gently, earnestly, and with pity, "Do you have anything to tell me?" I made a lot of phone calls to your house, and your mother said that you were very busy all day, going home one time, running to the hospital one time, and going out again the other. You...... What's wrong? Your face is so bad! You...... That friend, she ...... Dead, isn't it? ”

Ling Shan met his gaze, her eyes dark, deep, misty, and strange. "No," she said in a low voice, "she's not dead. I also called just now, and she didn't die, she just read a book and cried for a while, and then read a book and cried for a while. ”

"Reading a book?" He was puzzled and frowned slightly.

"It's not a book," she murmured, "it's a booklet." ”

He stared at her for a moment, then smiled soothingly, persuasively.

"Alright, Lingshan. You don't have to worry about other people anymore, okay? She is in the hospital, there are doctors and nurses who will treat her, and her parents and family will take care of her. ”

"She has no parents and no family."

"Oh!" Wei Pengfei looked at Ling Shan carefully. "I see, you are a compassionate fairy, and you want to treat her with your love."

"I'm not a fairy," she said expressionlessly, "I'm a monster, Chu Chu said, I'm a monster." "Hey, Lingshan!" Wei Pengfei was a little anxious. "What are you talking about, this matter has nothing to do with Chu Chu, don't you think it's too rich, okay?"

"There is a relationship between people."

"Youβ€”" He stood up and sat down again, squeezing her hand. "What the hell is wrong with you? You didn't get enough sleep? Are you too tired? You're in a bad mood, yes, you're in a bad mood! He sighed softly and took her into his arms, rubbing his chin against her hair. Don't bother, Lingshan. There are so many people in this world, and everyone has their own comedy or tragedy, you can't care so much! You just have to mind yourself! Lingshan, you take a few days off, I will also take a few days off, I'll take you to Alishan for two days to relax, okay? She gently pushed him away and looked him squarely, her brows furrowed slightly, and her heart was heavy. After a long time, he bit his lip and said, "Pengfei, are you willing to help me do something?" "Do a hundred things, a thousand things for you!"

"Really?" She stared at him.

"Of course it's true," he suddenly became a little skeptical, and added, "as long as I can do it!" "You can do it!" "So, what is it? You said! ”

"Pleaseβ€”" She gritted her teeth and stopped.

"What's wrong with you?" Wei Pengfei was puzzled, and reached out to touch her forehead. "There's no fever, what the hell are you going to say? You've always been cheerful, don't you stumble like this, Lingshan, do you have any difficulties, do you have anything unspeakable? You said! What do you want me to do for you? You said! "Okay! I say! She resolutely threw her head and made up her mind. I invite you to the hospital, you are not alone, please take Chu Chu there! ”

"Hospital?" He frowned in astonishment: "Take Chu Chu to the hospital?" What hospital to go to? Do? "Go see that friend of mine." He looked at her for ten seconds.

"You're sick." He said, "You're so tired. ”

"I'm not sick, I'm fine." She raised her voice, her voice awe-inspiring. "Pengfei, do you know who that friend I committed suicide is?"

Wei Pengfei's heart "banged", and his face suddenly turned white.

"Who is it?" He asked in a hoarse voice. "Do you know the woman Chu Chu often calls Aunt Zhang?"

"Oh!" He breathed a sigh of relief: "Is that Aunt Zhang?" ”

"She doesn't have the surname Zhang," she said coldly, "her surname is Pei, and her name is Pei Xintong." We call her Ah Pei. With a "bang", Wei Pengfei's elbow touched the wine glass on the table, and the glass shattered on the marble tabletop. Red wine spilled onto the marble like blood. Like the blood on Ah Pei's wrist. Wei Pengfei's eyes widened, and he looked at Ling Shan without blinking, his face was snow-white, and there was a look of almost fear on his face, they looked at each other, and for a while, no one spoke.

"She probably won't survive." Lingshan whispered. "The doctors kept saving her, but she was bleeding so much and her heart was weak. The main thing is that she has no will to live, and I just called the doctor and said that the probability of her survival is 50%. His eyes were red, and he couldn't say a word, just glared at her.

"She said she did everything wrong, only a hundred." She continued: "She had a secret relationship with Chu Chu, but I stopped her. Now, there she is, I have never seen a more lonely woman than her, she has nothing but death. Wei Pengfei buried his head in the palm of his hand, his fingers were inserted into his hair, he shook his head tossing and turning, and his heart tossed and turned through layers of memories; Sweet, bitter, sour, spicy! There were all kinds of sounds buzzing in his head, like the sound of the tide, like the waves of the sea, like the noise of a waterfall...... Xintong, Xintong, Xintong...... Eventually, the voice became a faint, vague consciousness; There's a woman who is dying! There's a woman who is dying! There's a woman who is about to ...... Fast...... Dying! There's a woman who is dying! The woman's name was Xintong.

"Pengfei, don't be too cruel." Ling Shan's voice was like the voice of a fairy and a god from the top of the mountain: "I know that there are only two people she is most eager to see now, one is you and the other is Chu Chu. You're going to take Chu Chu to meet her! You must! Pengfei, a husband and wife for a hundred days, not to mention that you have a daughter together! What are the grievances and grievances of the past in front of death? Pengfei, she needs you, she needs you so much! ”

Wei Pengfei jumped up from the stool and grabbed Ling Shan:

"Let's go! You go and take Chu Chu, let's go right away! What are you waiting for? ”

Half an hour later, they were at the hospital.

Pushing open the door of the ward, Shao Zhuosheng stood up from the sofa and looked at them in surprise, Ling Shan retreated to the sofa and gestured to Shao Zhuosheng, telling him not to speak or move. Wei Pengfei didn't notice Shao Zhuosheng, from the moment he pushed the door open, his eyes were attracted by the miserable white face on the hospital bed, and he sucked so hard that he no longer had the heart to care about everything else in the ward. He took Chu Chu's hand and strode over. The five-flower tie on Ah Pei's feet and hands had already been lifted, she seemed to be taking a nap with her eyes closed, and when she heard footsteps, she opened her eyes and looked at Wei Pengfei. The tip of her eyebrows twitched, her eyes were like a dream, and a weak smile appeared on her lips. "When people are dying, they must have visions!" She whispered.

Chu Chu recognized the person in front of her, and she screamed:

"Aunt Zhang! How do you sleep here? Aunt Zhang! Are you sick? ”

Pei's eyes widened, so wide that there seemed to be only these big eyes on her thin face. She looked at Chu Chu and said distrustfully:

"Chuchu? Plainly? It's you? Could it be you? ”

"Aunt Zhang, it's me!" Chu Chu shouted: "Dad took me to see you!" Aunt Zhang! ”

Wei Pengfei sat down on the chair in front of the bed, Pei's haggard and thin made him greatly shocked, and his heart ached, the bloodless face, the bony arms, the pointed chin, the deep-set eyes...... He grabbed her uninjured hand at once, held her tightly, and shouted bitterly, passionately, and sadly: "Xintong, how can you make it look like this?" Xintong, how can you be so thin and so haggard? Xintong, doesn't that bastard actually know how to take care of you? Xintong, where is your life force? What about your smile? Where's your ease? Xintong, you can't! No! You can't just lie here like this......"

Ah Pei suddenly had a sense of reality, she looked at Chu Chu, and then at Wei Pengfei, hearing Wei Pengfei shouting like this, a string of bright tears rolled out of her big eyes, she cried and laughed, and was excited, and said excitedly:

"Pengfei, are you still so good to me? You're not here to scold me? Come and laugh at me? See what happened to me today? You don't hate me? Don't blame me? Don't blame me? Don't curse me? ...... "Xintong, will I scold you?" Is it possible for me? I didn't scold you when we finally broke up, did I? Xintong, I have never cursed you, I have never ......" "I know, I read Aitong's miscellaneous. ”

"Did you see it?" He was stunned.

"Yes, yes, I watched." She broke free from his grasp and reached out to touch his hair, his cheeks. "Pengfei. I'm sorry for you, I'm really sorry for you. Everything today is retribution, and there must be gods in the underworld who govern everything in the world. Pengfei, I deserve it, I take the blame, if you are willing to come to see me today, I will die blindly......"

"Xintong!" He shouted, grief and eagerness. "You can't die, you're still too young, there's still a long way ahead of you, Xintong, you can't die, never!"

"Do you say that?" Ah Pei asked, tears pouring out in strings, her guttural voice choked, and she could barely speak: "How can you be so good?" Pengfei, you can't be so nice to me! I'm a cheap bone, I don't know what to do, I can't even hold the happiness in my hands! I'm bad, hopelessly bad, damn me! I should ...... die" "No! No! Xintong! He tearfully shouted: "You don't deserve to die, you are just true to yourself, you are not wrong......" "Do you still say that I am not wrong?" You...... You...... You ...... Foolish...... Fool! "You used to compose a song that called me a fool and a toad!"

"Do you remember?" "Remember every single thing about you! Your laughter, your crying, your songs, your fluttering clothes, your ice muscles and bones! ”

"So, you forgive me too? Forgive me for all my mistakes? Forgive me for leaving you? Forgive me? Pengfei? You say, forgive me! ”

"I don't forgive you!" "I'm too extravagant!" She smiled wryly. "I don't deserve your forgiveness, I don't deserve it!" "It's not!" He roared hard, his face flushed. "I don't forgive you for lying here like this! I don't forgive you for giving up your life! I don't forgive you for being so pale, so emaciated, so dying! I don't forgive, I don't forgive, I never forgive! ”

Her hand fell limply from his cheek, covering the back of his hand, and she stroked him, gently, weakly. The smile on her lips deepened, but tears welled up in her eyes. "Pengfei, you give me strength, please give me strength, let me live! I don't want you not to forgive me, I can't stand you not forgiving me......"

Chu Chu, who had been standing on the side, looking at them with strange eyes, couldn't hold back anymore at this time, and she cried out:

"Dad, Aunt Zhang, what are you doing?"

Wei Pengfei immediately raised his head, he pulled Chu Chu to his side, solemnly, seriously, and said word by word:

"Listen, Chu Chu! She's not Aunt Zhang, she's not surnamed Zhang, her surname is Pei, she's your mother! "Daddy!" Chu Chu exclaimed. "She's your mother," Mr. Wei repeated. "Your own mother, she is not dead, but over the years, she has left us. Chu Chu, you are already old, you should know the truth. You see, this is your mother, you should call her Mommy! Chu Chu looked at Wei Pengfei suspiciously, and then looked at Ah Pei, her mouth was closed, and she didn't say a word. Ah Pei reached out and touched her cheek, sighed lowly, and said softly, "Don't embarrass the child." Chu Chu, don't call me mom, I don't deserve to be your mom, I'll leave you when you're very young! Over the years, I haven't fulfilled my mother's responsibilities at all, don't call me mom, I can't stand it! I'm Aunt Zhang, I'm just your Aunt Zhang, Chu Chu, I'm sorry for your father, and I'm even more sorry for you! ”

Chu Chu stood there knowing nothing, staring at Ah Pei blankly, she was obviously confused, confused, and at a loss. Ah Pei's eyes were through the mist of tears, and he also stared at Chu Chu tightly. Suddenly, the nature of the mother and daughter knocked on the door between the two, and Chu Chu pounced and shouted:

"Mom, if you are my mother, why should I call you Aunt Zhang! Mom! I know you're alive, I've always known! "Chu Chu!" Ah Pei cried and shouted: "Chu Chu! ”

Ling Shan felt that there was no room for her to stay in this small ward, and her eyes were full of tears. Turning around, she looked at the stunned Shao Zhuosheng, pulled his sleeve, and she whispered:

"Let's go!" The two of them walked out of the ward and glanced at Ah Pei again, the family of three, crying and laughing together, unaware of everything else in the room. They closed the door, Ling Shan carefully hung up the sign on the door that said "No Visitors", and walked downstairs with Shao Zhuosheng and walked out of the hospital gate.

On the street, the autumn night breeze is blowing in the face, with a clear, cool, and refreshing autumn mood. They stood on the street, looked at each other, Shao Zhuosheng said: "I suddenly feel very hungry, I guess you didn't have dinner either, I invite you to eat steak, how about it?" "Good." She agreed.

So they went to a western restaurant, the restaurant was still elegantly furnished, and there were not many people, they chose a corner seat, sat down, Ling Shan looked at Shao Zhuosheng, and said, "I want to have a glass of wine." "I'd like to have a drink, too!" Shao Zhuosheng said.

They ordered wine and steaks. After a while, the wine came. Shao Zhuosheng raised his glass to Ling Shan and said, "What do you usually call me?" "Broomstar." "It's not. Other. "Less tendons." "Yes, I'm a root. I only found out one thing today, I only have one tendon missing, and you are missing seventeen or eighteen tendons. That's not to mention, you're still a brainless person! ”

"What do you mean by a brainless person?" Ling Shan asked.

"You don't have a mind at all! You must be suffering from cerebral deficiency! ”

"How?" "What to say! How else to say? If you had a brain, how could you bring that Aitong Miscellaneous Book? That's it, you actually brought Wei Pengfei's father and daughter to the hospital and directed such a good show! Now, it is a husband and wife, mother and daughter are reunited. What about you? What should I do in the future? "Me?" Ling Shan said a word blankly, picked up the wine glass, she took a big sip, and suddenly laughed. She laughed, smirked, and said while laughing, "Yes, I'm a brainless person, and I suffer from anencephaly!" She stared at Shao Zhuosheng with a lovely smile. I'm sorry, Shao Zhuosheng, I ignored you! Ha ha! I'm sorry! She touched Shao Zhuosheng's cup with her cup and said loudly: "Brainless people respect a cup of young roots!" She threw her head back and drank her glass.

Shao Zhuosheng did not hesitate, he also dried his own glass, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered two more glasses of wine. "Guess what's going on right now?" He asked.

"I don't know." She still laughed and said, "I don't have a brain today, I can't think of anything." "We are now-" Shao Zhuosheng sipped his wine and said, "We are both fallen people at the end of the world, why should we have known each other when we meet?" "Nonsense!" Ling Shan also sipped wine. "We've known each other for four or five years, so why should we have known each other!" "You can still think, you still have a little brain!"

"No, I thought it with my cerebellum!"

They looked at each other and smiled, and when they clinked glasses, they toasted again. Ling Shan called the waiter and asked for two glasses of wine. "If we drink like this, we'll all get drunk!" Shao Zhuosheng said.

"The drunken road is stable and frequent, and it is unbearable!" Ling Shan muttered and raised her eyes to look at Shao Zhuosheng. "I now know why Pei loves to drink, and Pengfei also loves to drink, it turns out that wine can make people light and carefree. Also, it makes people laugh, so why do I want to laugh all the time? ”

"You're wrong!" Shao Zhuosheng shook his head desperately. "Wine can make people cry, and Pei cries every time he gets drunk." "Not necessarily," Ling Shan shook her head desperately. "Every time Wei Pengfei gets drunk, he sits there in a daze like a wooden man!"

They looked at each other, laughed, toasted, toasted, and called wine.

"Hey, Lingshan, I have a suggestion." Shao Zhuosheng said.

"What advice?" Ling Shan grinned.

"You see, both of us are a little unsound, I am a young man, you are a brainless person, and we are both miserable people at the end of the world, and we have known each other for many years. Simply, how about we organize a sad family? ”

"Sad family?" Ling Shan giggled. "I've never heard such a strange name. I found that you are full of speech today, and your eloquence seems to have improved greatly. "Because of the wine." "Hmm, Ah Pei will cry when he is drunk, Pengfei will be in a daze when he is drunk, I love to laugh when I am drunk, and you love to talk when you are drunk. "How?" "What?" "Our 'sad family'!"

Ling Shan raised her eyes and stared at Shao Zhuosheng.

"Oh, no." She suppressed her laughter, and suddenly became serious. "Shao Zhuosheng, let's not do stupid things, we know that it is a tragedy, we should avoid it. No, let's not create one more couple for the world. ”

"Resentful?" "Yes, if a year ago, we were united, forget it, now, you don't love me, I don't love you. The result of organizing a broken family is to create a broken family. No, no! I'd rather embrace celibacy than organize a broken family! "That makes sense!" He exclaimed, "I want to toast you!" ”

They toasted again, and then ordered wine, and neither of them knew how many glasses it was, and they both staggered a little and were groggy.

"Since you don't organize a sad family, what are you going to do?" He asked.

"I don't know." She sipped her wine, tilted her head in contemplation, and smiled. "I'm going to go far, far away, where no one is around. What about you? ”

"I'm going to go far, far away, somewhere there's no one." He said. "So be it!" She laughed inexplicably again. "I'll go to the South Pole, you go to the North Pole, and when we go, we'll talk on the phone and report each other's safety!"

"Wonderful!" He was greatly admired: "Let's make a decision!" ”

"Cheers!" She raised her glass.

So they laughed, clinked glasses, toasted, and called wine. Then, Ling Shan was confused, she drank too much wine, she only remembered that she had been laughing, laughing all the time, that Shao Zhuosheng had been talking, had been talking, they had been raising a toast, raising a toast,...... Then, they ate the steak and were full of wine and food. Then, somehow, they got to the train station, and then, it seems, they bought two tickets, one to the South Pole and one to the North Pole.

Her last memory is that she got into the car to the "South Pole".
