Chapter 224: Around the World
Xu Huaisheng had just walked out not far when there was a pain in the back of his head, and he reached out to touch it, and warm blood flowed down the gap between his fingers. In the air, there was a faint smell of blood.
Xu Huaisheng's body staggered a few times, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness and fell into the mud full of stagnant water.
When he woke up, he was lying on a hospital bed with a drip in his left hand and a thick layer of gauze wrapped around his head. He tilted his head slightly, accidentally touching the wound on the back of his head, and he couldn't help but gasp in pain.
In addition to the wound on the back of the head, there are colors on the face and body.
The door of the ward was pushed open, and a young policeman in a police uniform walked in, and the two looked at each other briefly, and the little policeman coughed lightly and said, "Is it better?" Do you remember what happened to you? β
"I was beaten...... It seems to be ......" Xu Huaisheng frowned inadvertently, his slender and slender fingers lightly covered the layer of gauze wrapped around his head, and the faint pain on the back of his head was extraordinarily clear.
"You can rest assured, just a slight concussion. The person has already turned himself in and is taking notes at the police station, so let me ask you a few questions first. The little policeman took out the pen and notebook he carried with him, "Do you know the beater?" What happened to the brawl? β
"He's my girlfriend's younger brother, and it's a bit unpleasant." Xu Huaisheng glanced at the little policeman who was taking a few notes, and asked, "Comrade policeman, how do you plan to deal with it?" β
"Oh, this has risen to the crime of intentional injury, depending on how you solve it. Self-negotiation or prosecution is fine. The little policeman closed the cap of his pen and put away his notebook: "I would like to ask you to go back to the police station and deal with this matter." β
"I'm not going to sue, and I'm forgiving him." He said.
Police station. The rain was still falling, and it was pouring open on the glass, leaving shallow scratches one after another. Xu Huaisheng sat in the taxi and glanced in the direction of the police station, he withdrew his gaze, leaned back on the back of the chair tiredly, and completely relaxed.
He didn't plan to sue An Shu, and even pleaded for him. He knew that this was something he owed his affection, so he could only repay it with this trivial matter.
An Shu was not detained, and someone helped him pay a bail. Walking out of the police station, he looked at the taxi that had just left outside the gate, his eyes sank slightly, and he was not grateful to Xu Huaisheng for raising his noble hand to let him go, but was extremely disgusted.
He took out a crumpled letter from his trouser pocket that was wet from the rain, and the cover of the letter read "To Anshu", and he read the content of the letter more than three times, but he still couldn't accept that Zhong Yi just left City A quietly and left his side. And the initiator of all this is the boy she has been deeply fond of for many years - Xu Huaisheng!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The two got off the plane, walked out of the airport, flagged down a taxi on the side of the road, and went directly to their grandmother's house. The air in S City is not as dry as in City A, and with a moist wind blowing through his cheeks, Zhong Yi squinted contentedly.
After living in City A for five years, she still can't adapt to the dry air, and can blow sandstorms and endless rain at any time. Instead, she returned to S City, although it was far less than the salty sea breeze in the small town with the taste of her hometown, it still made her feel a lot more comfortable.
The taxi slowly stopped at the entrance of the alley, and the two got out of the car, took the suitcase and pushed it forward. The blue bricks and tiles, the spread and crooked path paved with bluestone slabs, overlapping with the scene in memory, instantly lost the sense of strangeness.
Grandma stood at the door of the house early and waited, and saw two figures pushing suitcases one after the other not far away, with a kind smile on her face, and greeted her cordially: "Xiaoyi, Yu Chuan." β
"Grandma." Zhong Yi threw away the suitcase in his hand, opened his arms and hugged the grandmother in front of him who had not seen kindness for a long time, his eyes were slightly red, and he rubbed his head against his grandmother's neck coquettishly, "I miss you so much, grandma." β
"Hehe, grandma also wants to be careful. Good ~ let grandma take a good look at my granddaughter. Grandma patted Zhongyi's back softly, and her smile was very kind and kind. She carefully looked Zhongyi up and down a few times, and suddenly pursed her mouth: "Haven't you eaten much outside, you see that you are thin, and your face is a big circle." β
Zhong Yi smiled "hehe", grabbed grandma's arm, and coaxed softly: "Yes, I think about the delicious meals made by grandma all day long, and I have no appetite for other meals, so I asked my brother to pick me up and take me home, and let grandma cook for me every day." β
Lu Yuchuan, who was "ignored", couldn't help but interject: "Grandma, don't look at her thin, her strength is greater than mine." β
Knowing that he wanted to come back and live here for a long time, his grandmother had already cleaned up the room. I don't know what Lu Yuchuan said to her grandmother, she didn't ask me about the emotional things at work, she changed her tricks every day to make all kinds of delicious food for Zhongyi, and within a week, Zhongyi's thin cheeks due to mental illness became "rounded".
Zhong's father and Zhong's mother also knew that she was back, and they collectively came to S City to take a look at her, and when they saw that people were still alive and well, they could eat and drink, so they instantly let go of their hearts.
Before leaving, Zhong Mu glared at her and threatened: "If you let me know that you are disobedient and make your grandma angry, go home with me immediately!" Hear no! β
Zhong Yi nodded tremblingly, for fear that if he accidentally angered the queen in front of him, he would have a very hard time in the future. After all, what happened to her in City A, Zhong's father and mother still don't know, once she knows, her every day will be in dire straits. She also deliberately concealed it, for fear that Lu Yuchuan, a pig teammate, would accidentally betray her.
In order to be able to spend his "old age unharmed", Zhong Yi can be said to have done everything he could, shifting the attention of Zhong's father and mother from her to other places, and he was able to spend a few days at ease, and his condition gradually improved.
Lu Yuchuan has a job, so he can't take time to come over to accompany her and her grandmother, and Commander Lu and Ruan Yuhe are even more busy, and they can't see them a few times a month. Father and Mother Zhong came to visit their grandmother in their spare time, stayed for a few days, and finally returned to the small town.
Zhongyi also gradually got used to the current "pension" life, every morning after breakfast, accompany grandma out for a walk, come back after a walk, sit in the small yard basking in the warm sun, drink tea and snacks, chat.
As soon as Xin Rui is not busy with work, she will come to her grandmother's house to accompany her love, eat, talk and take a walk! Later, after finding out that something was wrong, she sighed: Other people have money to make in their escorts, but my escorts only earn a body of fat!
Looking at Zhong Yi's cheerfulness and optimism day by day, Xin Rui sincerely felt happy and relieved for her. Her family likes it, it's not that easy to hit, isn't it.
Once the two get together, they have endless topics to talk about, and although the topics will inevitably fall into clichΓ© plots, they are still talked about with relish and laughter. The two have a very tacit understanding not to mention "Xu Huaisheng", nor to mention the unforgettable love that they like, they mention things other than feelings, such as: travel.
It was an article I came across in a travel magazine detailing the best places outside of China to travel across the Atlantic, across different countries, to an unfamiliar but beautiful town.
She admits that she was moved. She was immediately attracted by the illustrations in the text, and gradually a map was formed in her mind, depicting where she was going.
I like and can't let my grandmother stay here alone, so I persuade my grandmother to travel with her to see the outside world. Although grandma has always lived in the ancient city and never left, she is not a pedantic feudal old man ideologically, she understands the trend and readily agrees without any worries.
The only problem left is how to convince Father Zhong, Mother Zhong, Commander Lu and Ruan Yuhe. If they knew that they were going to take their grandmother around the world instead of a short trip, they didn't have to tell them in advance, she had already guessed the ending!
They wouldn't agree to her madness!
Grandma is too old to withstand the toss on the plane, and they will definitely find all kinds of excuses to put pressure on her and dispel her thoughts. But Zhong Yi will never compromise, let alone bow to them, although half of it comes from her selfishness.
She still dreams of Xu Huaisheng, often in midnight nightmares, his voice, his appearance, are clearly imprinted in her mind, and she can't shake it off. She tried to forget him, but her heart still throbbed, and her tears still soaked the pillow, and finally she tried to forget, which became even harder.
Her feelings for more than ten years revolve around a boy named "Xu Huaisheng", and it seems that it is not easy to forget completely.
Zhong Yi told Lu Yuchuan about this idea, and she couldn't find anyone else who could come up with a good idea except him. She knows that sometimes their brother and sister can always resonate and agree on something.
"Grandma is very strong now, and she has never been abroad in her life, so I think it is better to take grandma out to travel the world now, so as not to leave regrets in the future." Zhong Yi knew that Lu Yuchuan must have a way to persuade them, just like when she came back suddenly in embarrassment, they didn't ask a reason.
"No way!" Lu Yuchuan categorically refused.
"What?"
"With your current physical condition, you can guarantee that you have gone to a strange country and that you will be able to arrange everything properly. Don't forget, you still have my grandma with you. Lu Yuchuan looked at Zhongyi's bulging cheeks, reached out and rubbed her hair, and smiled: "Unless, I'm with you." β
"You? Will you leave the institute behind? He was willing to knock off Lu Yuchuan's hand that "ruined" her hairstyle, and snorted twice.
"I can't just watch you lose my grandmother, the work of the institute can be handed over to someone else." What he's really worried about is probably because of her road idiot!
Favor: "......"
Lu Yuchuan is Lu Yuchuan in the end, and there is nothing he can't do. At first, Zhong's mother was a little opposed to her taking her grandmother to "travel around the world" alone, but after only one day, her attitude towards her changed 180 degrees, and she agreed.
After planning the time, Lu Yuchuan, who was originally going to follow, was too busy to take a break, and the trip directly changed back to Zhongyi and grandma. The visa and passport for going abroad were handled by Ruan Yuhe, who liked to check the country he was going to go to, the climate and weather there, and booked the homestay online in advance.
As the city of S gradually entered the winter, I liked to book the time of my trip on the 16th, take a plane directly from the airport of S city, fly to the United Kingdom first, and start a trip around the world in the countries marked along the map.
