"I'm going to buy you a late-night snack!" Ah Qiang's voice became unusually gentle, and the light in his eyes was so soft, making Xiaobai really feel as if he was in a dream for a while.

She thought that this dream must not be woken up, even if it is fake. Her eyes were staring at Cuong unblinking, as if she were afraid that he would disappear all of a sudden.

The wind in the second half of the night suddenly cooled, and the sky suddenly became overcast, and Xiaobai's heart had a feeling of depression, which gradually became thicker, just when he was irritable.

In the silence of midnight,

A gripping bell rang all at once,

Jingle bells!

Her heart slammed up, Xiaobai looked at the clock on the wall in a panic, at twelve o'clock, her heart jumped suddenly, her eyes shrank in horror, looking in the direction of her son, he slept very sweetly, she heard her son's even breathing, and the heart that had just been pulled up relaxed slightly.

But when the ringtone continued to ring, her fingers trembled uneasily, grabbed the mobile phone in her bag, and looked at the shaky green screen, her heart sank.

An unfamiliar phone number.

For some reason, she always had an extremely bad premonition in her heart, and she raised her eyes to look out the door, and heard Ah Qiang say that there was not his brother who was taking care of herself and Doudou? There were two dark shadows, she seemed to see them, and her heart was a little quieter than just now, maybe she was too nervous.

The ringtone of the mobile phone rang wave after wave, and the calls that rang at this time were usually scam calls, and what harassing calls, so she didn't plan to answer them.

But when it rang for the third time, she still answered, what if Ah Qiang forgot to bring his mobile phone and called, what if it was his brother's?

Her heart skipped a beat, and the horror in her eyes gradually eased.

Carefully pressed the connection, and a familiar and terrifying voice came into her ears from afar,

"Xiaobai, do you want to know where your brother Cedar is?" Jiang Ming's eerie laughter.

Bai Xuejing's heart couldn't help but tremble, and the whole person immediately froze, her fingers stiffened, and the phone almost fell to the ground. She seemed to have guessed the most unexpected thing.

"Jiang Rui," she was anxious in her heart, a burst of panic and fear, he wondered if something had happened to his brother, "Are you with Cedar?" Her voice trembled. What did you do with him? ”

Hearing the fear on the other side, Jiang Rui laughed, "Bai Xuejing, I have paid for you for so many years, you really have no conscience, how can you have no return at all?" Don't worry, I won't kill my future brother-in-law, but if you don't cooperate, I don't guarantee that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, you won't see his bones? ”

"Jiang Rui, don't make trouble, okay?" Xiaobai sobbed softly, and the voice of begging came from the phone in waves, this voice Jiang Rui was familiar with.

"Okay, what should I do with the rest, you know, if the second person knows or calls the police, I'm sorry, Xiaobai, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless, even if I can't live, I have to pull a funeral!" Jiang Rui's crazy voice, word by word, word by word sounded in Xiao Bai's mind like a shocking bullet, and it shook the sound of a boom in his mind.

"He's really crazy!" Xiaobai put down the phone, his eyes began to be in a daze, yes, her brother's life is in Jiang Rui's hands, what should she do?

Looking at the sleeping Doudou, she gritted her teeth, crystal clear tears flowed down her cheeks little by little, flowing into the corners of her lips, she smelled the bitterness, she knew how to do it.

Her heart hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.

At this moment, she looked forward to the day she was late, the day she was late, the day ten years later, but this day, only this day, tomorrow should be different.

Gritting his teeth, the sun today and tomorrow are definitely different in their eyes.

After another half an hour, Ah Qiang finally rushed into the ward with an excited face, "This is the craft of Chongqing people, I know that you are originally from Chongqing, so I specially bought this for you, how about you try it?" Hurry up, it's still hot? Cuong looked at Xiaobai happily and put his things on the bedside table. Hurry up and eat, I'll guard Doudou. ”

Xianglai wanted to tell Ah Qiang Doudou's life experience, but now it seems that she has no need to tell it.

Xiaobai didn't know that Ah Qiang knew Doudou's life experience early on.

An enticing scent lingers through the room.

Halfway through eating, Xiaobai remembered, flashing a pair of bright eyes, "Brother Ah Qiang, I patronized and ate, have you eaten?" ”

"I don't like to eat, I'm afraid of getting hot!" He smiled stupidly, looking at this petite and pitiful woman happily, for ten years, he didn't seem to really know Xiaobai, he kept missing it, and if he missed it, did he like it? Just now, Xiaobai told himself that he was worried about the feeling of being tied to his stomach, that is, he liked it, and hoped that he would keep it up.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiaobai heard Brother Ah Qiang's laughter, and couldn't help but raise his eyes and ask.

"Nothing!" Ah Qiang moved beside Doudou, raised his big hand and gently touched Doudou's chubby fingers, he liked it very much, and carefully touched Doudou's forehead, frowned, and touched his head again, "It's okay, it's not hot, it should be retreated, when it takes a while to two hours, try the thermometer again, and you two sleep for a while, and I'll stand guard for you." ”

Warm and happy tears gathered in his eyes, Xiaobai sniffed, and swallowed it with the sound of eating soup, how good it would be if everything in front of him continued.

After eating, she sat quietly on the chair, with a feeling of weakness but forced to smile, hateful Jiang Rui, he can be so crazy, the feeling of the past ten years, is it just a passing moment for Jiang Rui, even if it is a friendship between classmates and friends, he can't do this?

Impulse is the devil, and love is a terrible devil, even more terrible than impulse.

Two hours passed, and it was two o'clock in the morning, and after Doudou tried the watch, Ah Qiang looked at it again and again in surprise, "Doudou's body is good, and he hasn't burned anymore." ”

Looking at Ah Qiang's excited appearance, the corners of Xiaobai's eyes were sour again.

After a while, the clock on the wall sounded the time again, three o'clock? So fast? Her eyes were bright all night, and she felt that time had flown by for the first time, but the ten years along the way, lonely, only spent in thoughts, were like years.

But tonight, she experienced, deeply experienced what it means to fly by like electricity.

It would be nice if time stayed on this night.

couldn't help but let out a sigh, but this sigh was captured by the alert Ah Qiang, he stepped forward and hugged Xiaobai's weak body, "What's wrong?" Still worried about Doudou? ”

Well! She had to answer in a panic that she didn't want Ah Qiang to worry about it, and the heavier Tixue pine was still in Jiang Rui's hands.

Her brother still has a life like a flower, and she won't joke with her brother's life.

"Doudou is no longer burning, if you are optimistic, you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow afternoon!" Ah Qiang comforted Xiaobai, who was trembling all over, frowned and let go of her, and looked directly at the uneasy little face, Doudou was fine. He solemnly looked at this little girl who had been thinking about himself for ten years, and there was a deep sense of regret in his eyes, he had pushed her out of his life alive.

The past ten years have been a punishment for myself.

She forced herself to pull out a smile, "Brother Qiang, I know." ”

Looking at Xiaobai's smile, Ah Qiang's heart also relaxed, fortunately, Doudou was fine, and he was relieved, in the future, they had the future.

The corners of his eyes unconsciously swelled up with a trace of sleepiness, such happiness, but when he closed his eyes, Ah Qiang had no sleepiness at all.

"Xiaobai, tell me about your family background, I don't know this yet." Ah Qiang lowered his eyelids and looked at the little girl in his arms, and his big hand stroked her waterfall-like hair.

"For as long as I can remember, I have been dependent on my grandmother, and my father and mother have not been there, and then I heard that my parents were looking for my grandfather who was scattered and there was no trace."

"Where's your grandfather?" Cuong's eyes suddenly lit up,

"My grandfather is a veteran of guo, min, dang, in the year of liberation, these middle and lower-class soldiers had no chance to escape to Taiwan, so they secretly bought a high-priced ticket and flew to San Francisco, I heard that there is gold everywhere, grandpa said that he wanted to settle down there, so he went first, and then picked up grandma, father and mother." Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh.

But later, after waiting for 20 years, the economic development of the mainland is booming, especially the spring breeze of reform has blown all over the land of Shenzhou, but before waiting for the news of grandpa, my father discussed going to find grandpa with my mother. Grandma said she would take care of us, and then Mom and Dad were gone for another few years. Later, only my grandmother and younger brother were left in the family. The corners of Xiaobai's eyes have been covered with layers of tears again, and he raised his hand to gently wipe the corners of his eyes.

"But after all these years, Mom and Dad never came back." Her voice was choked. "I heard from others that they were smuggled, and they were found halfway through and thrown into the sea to feed the fish, and some said that they were dragged to the mines, and then died at the bottom of the mine......"

She began to hide her face and sob.

"Xiaobai, don't be sad!" Ah Qiang raised his rough hand to help Xiao Bai wipe the tears on his face, carefully, for fear of hurting her smooth little face.

"Later, my grandmother also died, and my younger brother got leukemia in the third year after my grandmother's death, and at that time I really wanted to sell myself and exchange money for my younger brother to see a doctor, and then I was lucky to meet you." Xiaobai nested into Brother Ah Qiang's arms, and tears poured out wantonly, not only the sadness of the family, but also the sadness of the determination she had just made.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew were sewn, they won countless in the world, but in the blink of an eye, it was Cui'e who held her hand on Linqi Road, opened Zhuhu, and parted sadly.

"It's all over, don't be sad anymore, I'll protect you and Doudou in the future!" He patted his chest proudly, swearing.

Cautiously looked up in relief and smiled.

She hopes to wake up one day and open her sleeping eyes to see such a vivid face, dark eyes, tall and burly Brother Ah Qiang, this is the dream she has been chasing all her life, but she feels that it is clearly in front of her, why may it feel farther and farther away?

Bai Xuejing's heart hurts, the reality is always so cruel, she obviously gave hope, but she tore the hope to pieces, and then let you fight, but in the life of fighting and fighting, it is incomplete after all, either this piece is missing, or that piece is missing.

Just like her!
