Although his hometown is colder than Shanghai, and even the exhaled cold air is clearly visible, Cheng Mu is still very excited, and he is in a good mood and chats with Brother Qi while walking.

Well, in fact, Cheng Mu has been saying happily, but Brother Qi nodded silently, occasionally casually um-ahhh

The two walked out of the station, looked for a taxi, and listened to the familiar local accent of the driver's uncle, Cheng Mu sighed.

He has only been away from his hometown for half a year, and he feels that the state of mind of returning to his hometown is so complicated, how will those who have been away from their hometown for decades, or even a lifetime, feel.

Cheng Mu didn't know, but he knew that his life had just begun, and he was destined to continue to soar bravely in the vast sky in the future.

Looking at the familiar streets outside the window, every place he had played, Cheng Mu was even more excited, like a child who had never seen the world, and kept chattering in Brother Qi's ear.

"Hey, Brother Qi, look at that KTV, do you remember when I finished the college entrance examination and got drunk there?"

"Hey, the business near this square is still so good, and there are so many people in winter!"

……

"By the way, what's wrong with our Internet café? Are Sister Zhang and Wang Dong still working as network administrators? Cheng Mu talked straight for a long time, and suddenly said a question that Brother Qi had to answer.

Brother Qi nodded lightly, but his eyes were staring out of the window like Cheng Mu, as if he was full of concern, and still did not speak.

"Damn, what's wrong with you? Or not brothers? ”

"Of course!" Brother Qi looked at Cheng Mu who was chattering helplessly, when did this kid talk so much.

"That's good. Since it's a brother, sue me sù what are you thinking? ”

Cheng Mu is not a fool, Brother Qi obviously has something to hide from him. He didn't want to ask, but after all, he couldn't help it.

"Let's take a look at the scenery first, I'll chat with you, you'll always know something." Brother Qi tightened his lips and squeezed out a reluctant smile at Cheng Mu.

Cheng Mu squinted slightly. staring at Brother Qi, who pretended to be relaxed, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and all the excitement disappeared in an instant. Shen asked tentatively, "It can't be that something happened to my family, right?" ”

Brother Qi shook his head and said that Cheng Mu should not think about it, but his tone was fragile, as if he didn't even believe it.

Cheng Mu looked at Brother Qi who was spitting out, and suddenly felt that it seemed to be dark in front of him. A huge sense of powerlessness came up. I couldn't help but repeat a sentence in my heart:

Something must have happened at home!

"Brother Qi, don't hide it from me, isn't it my dad?" After a long time, Cheng Mu, who was frowning and silent, finally spoke.

My mother was on the phone with me a few days ago, so it shouldn't be anything; As for his grandparents, their bodies are still strong, and it is unlikely that anything will happen in the past six months.

It can only be his father who hasn't heard a voice for nearly two months!

My father liked to drink when he was young. I've always had high blood pressure, and my heart is not good. Originally, he was quite worried about him, but because his mother smiled every time he called, Cheng Mu didn't think about it.

Perhaps, it's because I don't dare to think about it.

Cheng Mu bit his lower lip tightly, frowned, clenched his fists, and waited for Brother Qi's answer with his eyes wide open.

Brother Qi let out a long sigh, turned his head, looked at the nervous Cheng Mu and said softly: "Actually, since some things have happened, you have to think about how to face them, instead of being sad." ”

"Crying is a coward's act and won't solve anything."

Cheng Mu heard Brother Qi's ambiguous words, but he didn't have the slightest politeness, and shouted directly: "Zhao Tianqi, you tell me the truth!" ”

Brother Qi was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect that he hadn't said anything, Cheng Mu was so excited. Even the middle-aged master who was driving in the front row was curious to watch the two people behind him in the rearview mirror.

"Xiao Mu, don't get excited, all you can do now is to face it." Brother Qi patted Cheng Mu on the shoulder and motioned for him to calm down.

"Faced? What happened to you and asked me to confront? Do you say it or not? ”

Cheng Mu almost roared and shouted, the more Brother Qi said this, the more he felt bad in his heart, his mind kept buzzing at the moment, how could he calm down?

"If you don't say yes, I'll ask myself!" Cheng Mu directly took out his mobile phone, wanted to find his father's phone and called directly.

Brother Qi didn't stop him, he really couldn't bear to tell the news to his best brother in person, and he looked at the excited Cheng Mu calmly at the moment.

Since the National Day, Cheng Mu has called his father's phone, and his mother is always on the other end. Otherwise, it means that the father's unit has something to do; Or just take a nap or something, anyway, I never heard my father's voice again.

This time, it was useless for the mother to say anything, and the father's voice must be heard!

Cheng Mu listened to the ticking sound quietly, every sound seemed to be a giant hammer smashing on his heart, and even the scenery outside the window was so bleak in the corner of his eyes.

Beep ~ The phone was connected, and it was not surprising that it was the mother's voice over there.

"Son, homesick? What day are you getting your ticket?"

The mother's tone was very normal, and it seemed that through the cold phone, she could still see the kind and doting appearance of the mother.

"Well, what about my dad? Let him answer the phone! Although her mother was well disguised, Cheng Mu still went straight to the point.

Brother Qi was silent, quietly looking at the anxious Cheng Mu.

"Your dad? Oops, he just went out, and his phone was left at home. ”

"I don't care, why do you always answer my dad's phone when I call me? How long will you hide it from me? Cheng Mu smiled self-deprecatingly, and his tone was as cold as ice.

The mother seemed to be silent for a long time before she sighed and said, "Is it the child of the Apocalypse who sued you?" ”

Cheng Mu glanced at Brother Qi next to him, and nodded yes.

"Alas, let's talk about it when we come back, the situation is better now, there is no danger to life, don't worry about it." Mother thought that Cheng Mu already knew everything, and continued to talk about herself.

Cheng Mu closed his phone weakly, as if all thoughts were lost, closed his eyes tightly, and slumped back in the chair.

Sure enough, something happened to my father, and it sounded like he was still very strict.

Under Cheng Mu's tightly closed eyelids, there were faint tears pouring out, and Brother Qi said in a deep voice: "Do you go to the hospital first, or go to the house first?" ”

"Was it his heart attack? Why should it be involved in life-threatening situations? Is there so strict? Cheng Mu suddenly opened his eyes, ignoring the tears in the corners of his eyes, and asked Brother Qi quickly.

"It's only been a few days since I came back, but I learned the news at the time of the National Day, and I remember calling you, and I'll know the details when you see them."

Cheng Mu was in a state of confusion, remembering that although his father was a small clerk with a bit of real power, he was upright all his life, and his reputation among relatives and friends was very good, and he admired his father the most when he was a child.

But such a good person, why did the disease find him?

National Day, National Day, after thinking about that time period, I seem to be leading the thief ship team carefree, playing all kinds of happy games, my son, is simply too unfilial!

"Oh my God! Why did you not sue me for such a big thing, why, why! ”

"Father, don't make any big deals, I'll be there right away, son!" (To be continued......)
