Inside the hospital.

"Okay, then now you can take your daughter back, and if anything happens again, come back to me, and try not to let her get any more irritation." Su Zhongting looked at Chen Xiaoxu and Chen Jiayan, who gradually got up from the bed, and said.

"Then Jiayan, you wait for me outside first, let's go and hail a taxi first, I buy a bottle of water from the vending machine in the hospital, and I'll come out immediately, do you need it?" Chen Xiaoxu asked.

"I don't need to, then I'll go out first." Chen Jiayan Yaoyao left obediently.

"Well, thank you, doctor, I've already paid the fee, and I'll leave with my daughter." Chen Xiaoxu smiled at Su Zhongting, and then left the ward as well.

Su Zhongting also returned to the office after Chen Xiaoxu left, and there is no work task for the time being. He leaned back in his chair, picked up the picture on the table, and looked at it again for a moment.

Immediately, Su Zhongting opened the drawer, took out a relatively large photo album, opened it, carefully put the photo inside, and closed it gently.

When there was some reminiscence in his eyes again, someone outside the office door where Su Zhongting was at this time began to knock on the door hurriedly and shouted: "Director Su, there is a new patient, please come as soon as possible!" ”

The color of remembrance faded instantly. Su Zhongting tidied up his clothes, opened the door, and left with the people outside the door, starting his busy work again.

At this point, in a taxi.

"I'm sorry, Dad, it seems that I got into trouble today because of my assertions."

The taxi drove in the streets and alleys, and the light of the street lamps that were not too bright shone down, showing Chen Jiayan's side face of half of loss and self-blame.

"How can I blame you, but if there is something in the future, I must tell me first, I must not run out by myself again, this will make me very worried about you, you must not have any accidents."

Chen Xiaoxu sighed helplessly at Chen Jiayan in front of him. Then he asked as if he remembered something: "By the way, Jiayan, I don't seem to have any impression of the boy who sent you to the hospital just now, and I have never heard you mention it." ”

"Cheng Qing didn't have a very prominent performance in our class, so I almost didn't mention him in my chat with you, and he was a boy, and we usually had very little intersection, like today's situation, it can only be said to be an accident. Another point is that all the hot news in the class doesn't seem to have anything to do with him. ”

"Is that so...... Then he has been taking care of you in the hospital for so long, and at this time, it must be later than the usual time to go home, so won't the people in his family worry? ”

"I'm not very clear about his family situation...... But Dad, why are you so interested in him, could it be that you have crossed paths somewhere? Or did you know this person before, but you just didn't remember it? ”

"I don't know, but the name may be the same as one of my colleagues, so I asked out of curiosity. When the new semester arrives soon, remember to pay more attention to him. I feel that his behavior in calling the emergency number to take you to the hospital today is very good, which is enough to make up for his lack of outstanding personality, maybe he still has some hidden skills. ”

"Dad, you work from home all day, and you have colleagues...... But I'll be grateful to him, but before that, there may be some misunderstandings that must be cleared up. Chen Jiayan's tone suddenly hesitated, then took out her mobile phone and opened the chat software.

"Of course, there are colleagues talking to on the Internet, okay, don't talk about it, I've been too tired from working from home recently, and the traffic jam is starting to get ahead, I'll close my eyes in the car first, rest for a while, and wake me up when I get home."

"Well, Dad, you can rest first."

At this time in another taxi.

Cheng Qing clearly understood that the current time was greatly exceeding the time agreed between him and Cheng Xi and Wei Yibai. At this point, it is unrealistic to go to the shopping mall to hang out, so Cheng Qing chose the fastest way to go home and took a taxi home.

"This is a breach of agreement...... Not only did I not go back at the appointed time, but ......" Cheng Qing looked at herself empty-handed, and smiled helplessly, "I didn't buy dinner either, it seems that I can only go to the convenience store to buy a few buckets of instant noodles to deal with it." ”

In his heart, he secretly apologized to the two people at home again, and when he saw that he was about to get home, Cheng Qing said: "Master, stop at the convenience store in front, I need to buy something." ”

"That's good." When the master heard the request, he immediately slowed down and stopped next to a convenience store.

After settling the expenses with the master, Cheng Qing opened the door and got out of the car, and walked directly to the convenience store.

In addition to instant noodles, should I bring something else back... Let's take a look at the fact that I didn't bring enough change with me this time......

Although Cheng Qing can cook, it is impossible to prepare meals if she purchases some cheap ingredients so late. If you count the time it takes, dinner should be pretty much a late-night snack.

And thinking that Wei Yibai is a guest, if you want to prepare instant ingredients, it is obvious that instant noodles are the best choice at present. However, the first time I came to my home, I had to use instant noodles to deal with it, and it was difficult to make a bad impression on people. So Cheng Qing decided to try to avoid this situation as much as possible.

What's more, you have to consider Xiaoxi.

Let's see if the money left is enough to buy a boxed lunch......

This is the most satisfying dinner that Cheng Qing can think of at the moment, and it is not too simple.

Cheng Qing stopped outside the convenience store, fumbled in the backpack on her back, and took out a small wallet. Then I opened it and counted it.

Looks like that's a lot more generous than the budget.

Cheng Qing saw that there was more balance in her wallet than she thought, and she couldn't help but praise her ability to allocate the economy.

So, then......

Cheng Qing saw that the funds were available, so she pushed open the door of the convenience store and prepared to enter the convenience store to make a purchase.

"Hello and welcome."

The warm welcome came, which reminded Cheng Qing of He Zhiyan's service attitude in the morning, and praised it again.

After some selection, Cheng Qing walked to the cash register with a bucket of instant noodles and two boxes of lunch boxes.

"Hello, do you need to heat up the lunch?"

The waiter carefully scanned the information of each product and asked Cheng Qingdao.

"Need to heat up, trouble."

"Since there are a lot of people in the store now, but the heating tools in the store are limited, there are still some heating tasks ahead, can you be patient?"

"Yes." Cheng Qing can only choose to wait at this time, if she goes back with an unheated box lunch, it is not much different from simply not bringing dinner.

"Do you need to soak your instant noodles now?"

The waiter looked at the remaining bucket of instant noodles and continued to ask Cheng Qing.

If it takes a while to heat up, use that time to finish your instant noodles first. Going home and soaking again will waste this waiting time.

"I need to soak it, and the two boxed lunches just now need to be taken out, help me pack them."

"Okay," the waiter heard Cheng Qing's request at this time, handed a bucket of instant noodles on the table directly to another waiter, and said, "Help this guest make instant noodles." ”

"Understood." Another waiter said.

Cheng Qing looked at the scene in front of her, and then looked at the other staff in the store. Everyone works in their jobs in an orderly manner, and from time to time they share some of the responsibilities for others. Even though there are so many customers in the store, the order in the store is still maintained so well.

"Also, do you need a shopping bag?"

"Yes." Cheng Qing replied, then took out all the funds in her wallet and handed them to the waiter.

"This is your change, and there is a shopping receipt, please take it and wait a while, there is a seat on the right hand side for you to sit and rest temporarily, there is free purified water in the store, and if you want to drink, there are also disposable paper cups next to the water dispenser."

The waiter smiled and held out his right hand, pointing to a seating area. Cheng Qing nodded, picked up the ticket and a bunch of odd coins, and sat down after finding a place in the rest area.

"Ding-dong."

As soon as she sat down, the notification sound of her mobile phone attracted Cheng Qing's attention. After Cheng Qing took a closer look, she showed a slightly puzzled look.

"Did I forget it, I remember that I usually know the memory of this kind of chat software." The screen displays a notification message from the chat software.

"Notification messages and the like...... It won't be a weather forecast, a boring video, right......" Cheng Qing clicked on the verification message column with the idea of directly and permanently unfollowing the source and directly deleting this kind of message.

"Friend application, applicant, add salt."

Cheng Qing carefully looked at the strange verification name displayed on the screen, and read the name again without a clue, and he didn't find any highlights or clues to solve the identity of the number owner.

"Is it necessary to get such a flashy screen name now...... Cheng Qing couldn't help but complain fiercely about this name that made him scratch his head, he opened his profile homepage, the name is very simple, just CQ.

The naming method of using the first letter of the name in capital letters is simple and clear, so that the person who is added to the friend can clearly understand the identity of the person who came, so that the probability of agreeing will be much higher.

However, although the way to get a business card is to say so, there are not many people who have added Cheng Qing's chat software friends. Because he never takes the initiative to share things like chat accounts with his classmates, over time, there are almost fewer people who become friends with Cheng Qing in chat software. This also makes his concise name useless for practical reasons.

Translated it means to add salt as a seasoning and add salt...... Add salt, this can't be Chen Jiayan, right? ”

Cheng Qing seemed to feel a little familiar, and then read the translation results several times, and after simplifying it, she got the name.

"I really have the courage to blacken myself, and generally this English translation screen name may be used as a joke among classmates, but she used it directly."

"No matter so much, anyway, let's agree first, ask who it is, if it's some advertised trumpets, you can delete it." Although she affirmed in her heart that this was almost Chen Jiayan's account, Cheng Qing still had this idea and clicked the button to agree to the application.

"Hello, is that the customer who bought the instant noodles just now? Here is your instant noodles, all the seasoning packets have been added, boiling water has been added for you, please wait a little longer. ”

The waiter walked over with a bucket of noodles and put it next to Cheng Qing, with an excellent service attitude.

"Thank you." Cheng Qing put the mobile phone on the table, took the instant noodle bucket in the waiter's hand with both hands, and put it on the table as well.

The lid of the bucket is fixed by the fork that comes with the instant noodles, which just prevents more heat from being dissipated into the air.

"There are also two of your boxed lunches waiting to be heated, if my colleague comes to ask you after a while after the heating is over, please remember to exchange the receipt." The waiter reminded him and went back to work.

Cheng Qing can only wait slowly at this time, it will take a while for the face to bubble up, and it will be useless to sit here and stare at it. He picked up his phone again, ready to see what the other side would react to if he agreed.

At this time, on Cheng Qing's mobile phone screen, there is only one line of words in the conversation window between the two, that is, "You and Add Salt have been added as friends", which is also a verification message pop-up window that will pop up after the two add friends.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

Seeing that the other party hadn't sent a message for a long time, Cheng Qing decided to test it first.

It seems that there is something on the other side, even if Cheng Qing sent a message first, but after a few minutes, he still did not receive a reply.

Seeing this situation, Cheng Qing lifted the lid of the instant noodle bucket and took a look, and found that the noodles were almost ready, so he picked up the fork and decided to wait while eating.

"Ding-dong." Cheng Qing had just tasted a bite of noodles when she was interrupted by the prompt ringtone of her mobile phone. I picked up my phone and looked at it, and it was the message of the Add Salt.

"Ah, when I added your friend just now, I forgot to add a note, I'm Chen Jiayan, if you look at my screen name, you may be able to guess it, sorry, sorry."

"How did you find out about my chat app account?"

Cheng Qing saw that the other party was Chen Jiayan and asked.

"It's very simple, I found Lulu, I remember that she should have your chat software account, because you usually don't talk to much in the class, so try to find someone closer to you."

"And why did you add me?"

"Would you believe me if I said I just wanted to cheer up all the students in the class and show my friendliness?"

"In the days when school first started, I would have believed it, but now that a whole period of freshman time has passed, and now you come to add friends, your statement seems a little pale."

"The second half of my words is serious, though, and I do want to express my friendliness. First of all, I would like to thank you for your help today, in the hospital, I have not been able to say thank you once. ”

"Secondly, you are not a person in a small group in the class, they have a relatively strong sense of community, and they generally believe that their circle of friends will rarely continue to expand outward, because they are also afraid of the eyes of others in their original circle."

"Also, you're Lulu's friend, and there's something I want to ...... Explain it to you, because it's not good to talk to her in person, I hope you can help me convey it to her after you know it. ”

"What's the matter?"

Cheng Qing had been eating and watching when Chen Jiayan sent the message, and saw that the inside of the noodle bucket was almost bottoming out, so she fished out the remaining noodles again, put the instant noodle bucket aside after eating, and replied with four words.

"On that rainy day in the first semester, we had planned to wait for Lulu, but her mission was not completed. But that day, it was Xiao Zhixin's ...... Birthday, but because school had just started, she didn't tell us because she wanted to surprise us. ”

I was waiting for Lulu to tell her after handing out the brochure, but I saw that she never came, and Xiao Zhixin's parents had already booked a private room in the hotel, and the invited guests had already arrived. But only the hero didn't show up.,In order not to make the guests present impatient.,So we need to go over immediately.。 ”

"But it was a rainy day at the time.,Because I'm really worried that the traffic will be extremely congested in the evening rush hour.,The birthday hero may not be able to catch up with the hotel.,And Lulu's phone couldn't be dialed at that time.,In desperation.,So we left first.。

"I heard Lulu later tell us that you helped her that day, so I want to say thank you again here. And you, as Lulu's friend, may also have some ...... for me and Xiao Zhixin because of this incident Views and the like, today, I can find the opportunity to tell you the real reason. ”

"Then why can't you tell her these reasons directly, but let me tell them?"

"One was that I was afraid that she would blame us because we weren't there for her when she needed help, and the other was that on her birthday, she invited me and Siu Zhixin, and I was even more ...... about it Guilty. ”

"Don't worry, I think Lin Xinlu will definitely accept your apology after understanding the reason, because she generally accepts the kindness of others."

"Also, on the day it rained, I remember that when you went out, you seemed to be discussing something, it should be the question of whether to stay and wait for Lin Xinlu."

"Original...... You have seen ......" Chen Jiayan sent a text with a hint of surprise at this time, and then she continued to send, "Then, thank you, I'm ready to confess these things to her now, so I won't bother you, I'll go offline first." ”

When the topic ended, while Cheng Qing put away her mobile phone, the waiter came over with a boxed lunch.

The freshly heated lunch box is still a little hot, and the store is very careful about the packaging, and there is a heat-insulated cardboard next to the lunch box, which you can use to pick up the lunch box. And there is also a bag on the outer layer.

"Is this your lunch?" At this time, a different waiter came over and asked.

"Yes."

"Please give me your receipt."

Cheng Qing took out a neatly folded receipt from her pocket and handed it to the waiter. The waiter confirmed the goods on the receipt, and then after scribbling his hand on it, he handed the lunch box to Cheng Qing.

Cheng Qing looked at the status bar of her phone, and the number showing the time on it jumped a lot because of waiting. So Cheng Qing thanked the waiter and left quickly.

"It seems that I didn't reply to Xiaoxi's call just now......"

Cheng Qing opened the call record and took a look, and on the column where the contact note was "sister", all the red color of the missed call was displayed.

"It's really getting busier and more chaotic......"

At that time, when Cheng Qing was just about to reply, the taxi that was stopped arrived. When I got in the car, I only cared about explaining the master's destination, and because I only wanted to solve the dinner problem along the way, I put aside the reply.

When I arrived at the convenience store, I could have remembered this incident during the waiting time, but because Chen Jiayan added his friend, after some conversation...... Cheng Qing didn't remember this incident again until now.

After walking for a while, looking at the sky that was gradually darkening, and then at the subway station near his home not far from his field of vision, knowing that there was still a not too short distance to go home, Cheng Qing had to speed up his pace again......
