Chapter 23: Reminiscence

By this time, two steaming bowls of wontons had already been served.

"I'm not connected to all of this anymore." Charlene didn't look at the wontons brought to the table and said, "There's no point in you talking to me about this. Zhang Rong is just my friend. ”

Of course, Huo Jianan knew this.

But he just wanted to talk to someone about these things.

For a while, the scene became very embarrassing. Neither of them knew what to say next.

"Forget it...... I also know it's not much use talking to you. Huo Jianan looked at the steaming wontons in front of him, picked up the spoon, and said, "Eat." “

Xia Lin saw Huo Jianan's extremely gloomy expression, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Huo Jianan looked at Xia Lin in front of him, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Your father...... Dr. Xia, is he okay? “

He ...... OK. Yesterday he went out to see a doctor, and he seemed to be a little too tired, and he is still resting. ”

Dr. Xia Chengtian is a doctor who is full of praise even for his father's harshness. At first, he remembered that his father had come up with a large amount of money for Dr. Xia to be his personal doctor, but the doctor finally refused.

My father's consortium has increased its investment in medicine over the years, and the hospitals run by the Huo consortium have set up several elite medical teams over the years, specializing in providing the most professional medical services for politicians and chaebols. My father had always felt that it was a pity that if Dr. Xia could pick up the scalpel again, he would be able to include him in the elite medical team he was building. The reason why his father has always been so enthusiastic about the medical career, according to some of his actions over the years, Jianan realized that his father hoped to achieve the goal of entering politics by providing the most high-end medical services for politicians. He realized early on that his father's purpose in placing his eldest brother in the top medical team he had set up was to pave the way for his eldest brother to follow the same path in politics as he did in the future.

That's it...... For Jianan, it just brings intense exhaustion and burden. For this reason, he completely gave up his dream of becoming a professional footballer. Even now, he can only vaguely regain his former passion when he watches football games.

Just then, it suddenly started to rain outside.

"Yesterday's weather forecast obviously didn't say that it will rain now......" Charlene looked at the sudden rainstorm outside, and couldn't help frowning: "I didn't bring an umbrella either." “

"I'll go first." Huo Jianan took out a piece of New Taiwan Dollar and put it on the table, saying, "You can take the change." ”

"You haven't eaten anything?"

"No need." After he finished speaking, he walked directly to the door of the store. Nor did he listen to Charlene's shouts from behind, and rushed into the pouring rain outside.

He strode and ran in the rain.

The heavy rain reminded him of the last football game he played in that year. In the last football game before entering the third year of high school, Huo Jianan is also very sad. Now, he doesn't want to go home anymore, he doesn't want to care about the conflict between the eldest brother and the third sister anymore.

Charlene looked at the heavier and heavier rain outside and couldn't help but worry.

"The hostess...... Can you lend me an umbrella? “

Xia Lin became worried about Huo Jianan, and after borrowing an umbrella, she went into the heavy rain outside.

"Huo Jianan! Huo Jianan! ”

In the storm, Charlene walked around, but still didn't find Huo Jianan.

"Where has he gone......"

Recalling that year, Charlene remembered that Jialan often took her to the school playground to watch the football team led by Jialan's brother Huo Jianan be invincible on the field. At that time, Huo Jianan has always played as a striker, and the deepest impression is that he actually scored a hat trick in a game, when countless people were boiling, and the cheerleaders on the side of the field shouted Huo Jianan's name. That's when Charlene noticed him. It's just that later, I don't know why he gave up football, and the school football team no longer has Huo Jianan. This has also been a pity for Charlene.

Maybe at that time, she had a trace of affection for Huo Jianan on the field. But maybe that's just a kind of worship of the girl. Later, Huo Jianan attended the same cram school as her. Because of Jialan, she has been helping him with tutoring. During that time, she may have thought about what happened to Jianan, but not long after graduation, Jialan actually gave her an invitation directly, and she never dreamed that her marriage partner was Zhang Rong's boyfriend Zhu Xuhang. Because of this, her relationship with Jialan broke up, and she became estranged from Jianan a lot.

"Huo Jianan! Where are you? ”

The rain continued to sprinkle down the umbrella, and she kept looking around, but there was still no trace of Huo Jianan.

"So much rain, he ran so fast? Also, when he played as a striker on the field, he was indeed walking like a fly. ”

Charlene remembered Huo Jianan on the green field back then, his face was full of radiance and confidence, but now...... The word "depression" was written all over his face. She really didn't know how Huo Jianan had lived all these years. Now that I think about it, when he was in cram school, although he told himself that he wanted to apply for medical school, she could see that he didn't want to be a doctor, and what he really wanted was to be able to gallop on the green field.

"Huo Jianan!"

Walking through an alleyway, she suddenly saw that Huo Jianan in front of her collapsed under the eaves!

"You...... What's the matter with you? ”

Xia Lin is a doctor in the end, and when she saw Huo Jianan's current appearance, she realized that he was only afraid that he was cold. He was sweating before, and now it is raining so heavily, how can he not have a fever?

"You...... Are you okay? Get up, my clinic is nearby, I'll take you back first. ”

……

He woke up.

"I ......" He only felt a little dry mouth and a pain in his head. Then, he looked in front of him.

Then, all he could see was an explosion! His upper clothes were pulled apart, and in his chest, a huge hole was torn, and even the beating heart inside could be seen! However, he didn't even feel the slightest pain! And then he also found that he couldn't move at all! The neck is the only part of his body that can be moved!

"Ah......h

He turned his head and looked ahead.

A man stood in front of him.

When he saw the man's face clearly, his eyes showed a look of horror.

The man's face was unusually pale, and it was completely different from what he had been familiar with. At this moment, the man reached out and reached out to his chest, which had been torn by a huge gap.

He shook his head frantically, but his body couldn't move, his mouth couldn't speak, he could only watch his hands get closer and closer to him, closer and closer......
