CHAPTER XXXVIII

The operation went on for a long time, and the man sat on the bench all the time, Shangguan Han was a person who could not sit still, he sometimes paced in front of the operating room, and sometimes sat on the bench that was separated by an empty seat from the man.

Xie Tiannan couldn't stay long and went back, and before leaving, he asked the man's account number, so that he could go back and discuss with his parents to return the money.

But the man didn't want to live or die, and said, "You are all children, how can you have so much money, since you have met it, you should do good." ”

This good deed is inevitably generous, we know more or less the old man, what about him, a passerby, said that doing good is too far-fetched!

Mu Ziyou went to buy food, it's been a day, everyone hasn't eaten, and I don't know how long this operation will take, so I should always fill my stomach.

Now only Shangguan Han and the man remained.

The man first opened his mouth and asked Shangguan Han: "How high are you studying?" ”

Shangguan Han replied briskly: "It's almost the third year of high school." ”

"How's the grade?"

Shangguan Han smiled and replied bluntly: "Rank among the best!" Shangguan Han is not modest, which is very in line with his character.

The man smirked: "Hmm! You can see that you are smart! ”

Shangguan Han was in a state of panic from the time he saw this middle-aged man to the present, and he didn't look at him carefully.

Now take a closer look, this middle-aged man, with a kind face, a square face, full of heaven, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, must have been a standard beautiful man when he was young.

However, his eyebrows furrowed, and he seemed to be worried about the old man's condition.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Shangguan Han made a joke: "Uncle! You are so generous that people think that you are the son of an old man. ”

The man became nervous, and he smiled pretending to be calm, and said, "If I am really the son of the old man, I have no conscience to leave the old man in this poor and remote place. ”

"Hmmm! Makes sense, you put it that way!

Now I just hope that the old man is okay! Otherwise, I would have deeply regretted that I could not help him solve the mystery of the jade lock. ”

The man muttered in a low voice, "The mystery of the jade lock! ”

Shangguan Han glanced at the man beside him, his eyebrows furrowed, and he came up with an idea, so he said again: "The old man must have a son, and this secret is in the jade lock."

It's a pity that he lies in it and his life is uncertain, if he knows that he has a son, then he will definitely survive it. ”

The man looked preoccupied, he raised his eyes and glanced at the operating room, and said something inconsequential, "It may not be a good thing to let him know, it will only increase the sadness." ”

Shangguan Han didn't understand very well, he said: "Having a child is more or less comforting in my heart. ”

The man turned his head to look at Shangguan Han, his eyes were indifferent, and his voice was deep: "Huh! You're still young, how do you know this? When you reach my age, you'll understand that things don't work out. ”

The man also wanted to know the mystery of the jade lock, so he said, "I heard you talk about the mystery of the jade lock just now, does the old man's son already have eyebrows?" ”

"You want to know too?" Shangguan Han asked tentatively.

"Be curious! After all, we know each other now. ”

"I don't know yet! I didn't open it, I have to ask the old man's opinion for this, after all, it's his family matter. ”

"Hmmm! That's right! As soon as the man's mellow voice fell, he said, "You should be about to take the exam, right?" ”

After all, they are parents at this age, so it is not surprising to know about the exam, Shangguan Han replied: "Tomorrow!" ”

"Tomorrow's exam, it's still here, don't you have to revise?"

Shangguan Han smiled confidently: "Uncle! I don't need to review. ”

The reason why the man asked about the exam was just to send them away and give him an excuse to stay here, and now Shangguan Han answered so confidently and simply, he ran out of ideas for a while.

Mu Ziyou came with something, and he saw the two of them chatting energetically.

Her arrival seemed silent, no one paid attention, she only heard Shangguan Han's words, "I don't need to review." ”

Mu Ziyou glanced at Shangguan Han, his face was unhappy, and he said while distributing the boxed lunch: "You don't need to review to take the first test, so I can only go back." ”

The man suddenly had a justifiable reason to stay, so he took the lunch box that Mu Ziyou gave him, and said, "You children, don't review for the exam soon, there's nothing for you here, go back quickly!" ”

Then he opened the lunch box and ate it slowly, as if to tell them that he had nothing to do and that he was spending some time here.

Shangguan Han was so hungry that he was beating the drum, he didn't care about answering, he picked up a few mouthfuls of rice, and before these mouthfuls of rice were eaten, he became energetic, and said, "Ziyou, you go back first, I will report to you if there is anything." ”

The man instantly became stern, put on a paternalistic posture, put the lunch box in his hand on the empty seat on the side, and leaned back on the back of the chair, "I have already paid the money, and now I shouldn't be a bad person in your eyes, right?" If you still don't worry about me guarding here, you don't have to be coy, just tell me to get out!

Do you need to stay here and spend all of them? You are students, you don't think about yourself, you should always think about your family.

What should I do if I run outside all day and night, and I don't say a word to my family, and my family is in a hurry to call the police? ”

Shangguan Han and Mu Zi looked at each other quietly, what this man said was not unreasonable, and it was not a way for them to wait here.

Mu Ziyou gave Shangguan Han a look, Shangguan Han never reported his whereabouts to his family, he and his family were used to it.

Mu Ziyou is different, she has to talk to her mother somewhat.

So she said, "Uncle, I'll leave it to you here, and if you have anything, call here directly." ”

Mu Ziyou gave the man the neighbor's phone number.

Shangguan Han didn't want to leave, but Mu Ziyou had already included him, so it was inconvenient to say anything.

Shangguan Han took out the jade lock from his pocket and glanced at it, the man peeked at it, and Shangguan Han handed it to Mu Ziyou again.

Mu Ziyou didn't look at it and put it directly in his pocket, and the two glanced at each other again and walked straight away with their respective lunches.

The man waited for them to leave, never touching the lunch box again, and he cast his long-awaited eyes to the door of the operating room.

Shangguan Han rode Mu Ziyou's bicycle, Mu Ziyou sat in the back seat, his bicycle was still in the haunted house, and he didn't have to take it back when it was getting late today, so he simply went home first, and Mu Ziyou rode back by himself.

The two of them didn't talk much about the man, they were exhausted by today's events, and the only hope in their hearts was that the old man was okay.

Not long after they returned home, a phone call came at night, saying that the old man's operation was successful, and they settled down.

Mu Ziyou didn't go to bed right away, but read a book for a while, this is her habit before the exam, although it doesn't play a big role, but at least it can make her feel at ease, if she doesn't read, she will have no sleep all night.
