Chapter 139: Welcome Back, Lu Yuchuan
After that, they haven't been in touch for half a month.
In the city where they both know each other, they are only a few thousand meters apart, but because of the disruption of the order of life, they forget that important person exists.
Zhong Yi looked at the white wall opposite in a daze, pondering, his hands crossed on his knees, a few strands of hair falling from his forehead covered half of his face, and his eyes hidden between the hair floated with a layer of white mist, blurring the clear eyes.
What is he doing now? Zhong Yi thought, his eyes gently moved away from the wall, and he fell slightly on his right wrist, and the time on his watch showed 16:13. He should be reading a book at this time.
His eyelashes fluttered, and he pondered for a few seconds, pulling out his phone from his jacket pocket, since he wanted to know if he was okay? It's better to make a phone call now and have a good chat, so as not to see each other in the future, and the relationship between their "sister and brother" will fade.
Zhong Yi just pressed a series of numbers, and before she could press the dial button, she was interrupted by Ruan Yuhe's voice, she bent her fingers, turned her head to look at Ruan Yuhe who was walking towards her, and bent her lips and smiled: "Aunt." ”
Ruan Yuhe pursed her lips and smiled, straightened the hem of her clothes, sat down beside her, looked at her gently, and asked, "Why are you sitting here alone?" A few of them are playing cards, so let's go play together. ”
Zhong Yi lowered his head slightly, fiddled with his phone with his fingers, and shook his head lightly: "It's too stuffy inside, and I'm not familiar with them, so I can't play together." Of course, she knew that the "they" in Ruan Yuhe's mouth referred to the children of relatives, although the age difference was not far behind, but she liked to deal with people who inexplicably resisted the title of "children of relatives".
Originally, this group of relatives were just some people who hadn't been going back and forth in recent years, and I don't know where they got the gossip today - Commander Lu came to S City, and happened to meet his grandmother in the hospital, so they made an appointment to visit his grandmother together.
It's just that the timing of the election is unreasonable, and the motive is too obvious, for fear that if the action is one step later than others, Commander Lu will not think about family friendship.
After my grandmother's illness, Zhong Yi can be regarded as seeing through the warmth and coldness of the relationship between relatives.
Ruan Yuhe smiled knowingly, "It's okay not to go in, you don't have to worry about looking at it." ”
Zhong Yi was a little surprised, turned his head to look at Ruan Yuhe, but quickly calmed down, and his expression was very calm. She bent her hand, tapped her fingertips rhythmically on the phone screen, and said with a light smile: "Auntie, if you are tired, go back to Grandma's house to rest for a while." ”
Ruan Yuhe bent the corners of his lips, "Don't worry, I'll have to book a table later, there are more people, and you can't be vague about having a good night." As if he suddenly thought of something, he paused and said: "Yu Chuan just called me and said that he was about to arrive in S City, and I couldn't take the time to pick him up, and your parents were also busy greeting relatives, so I could only care less about you to pick up your brother." ”
"Is my brother coming back?" Zhong Yi was stunned for half a second, looked at Ruan Yuhe and asked in a daze. I couldn't help but think of a phone call I had with him when I was still in S City, and he said on the other end of the phone that the troops might not be willing to take a holiday until the Chinese New Year, and the date of return was not yet accurate, and teased her not to look forward to his return every day.
Zhong Yi rolled his eyes at the phone, and said angrily: "Get out of your uncle, who will miss you every day when they are full." ”
"Yes, I heard from your uncle that the army has an early holiday this year. I got on the train at about seven or eight o'clock last night, and I don't know if I ate on time on the way. Ruan Yuhe stood up, glanced at Zhong Yi, who was still stunned, chuckled, and said empathetically: "If you don't want to go to the dinner, don't go, after picking up Yu Chuan, the two of you will eat directly outside, according to Yu Chuan's temperament, you can't eat enough." But the premise is that you have eaten almost all the food, come to "Hexiangju" and meet those elders and relatives. ”
Zhong Yi nodded, naturally understood what Ruan Yuhe's arrangement meant, and didn't interject much, put the phone in his pocket, stood up and was about to leave.
"Careless." Ruan Yuhe stopped Zhong Yi, who was about to leave, stretched out to her and pinched a few of Grandpa Mao's hands, and said with a smile: "Bring the money, but no one cares about your food." ”
Zhong Yi smiled embarrassedly, turned around and took Grandpa Mao handed over by Ruan Yuhe, put it in his pocket, and responded obediently: "Well, aunt, I'll go first." ”
Along the way, Zhong Yi couldn't hold back the little excitement, and the smile at the corner of her mouth was about to grin behind her ears a few times, but fortunately, she was still a little sensible, and while the driver's uncle observed her from the rearview mirror for a long time, she didn't make up her mind that she was a mental patient, Zhong Yi learned An Shu to put on an "indifferent" expression, "coughed", and turned her head to look at the traffic outside the window.
The taxi quickly arrived near the train station, slowly pulled over, paid the money, opened the door and got out of the car, a cold wind blew in the face, the cold forced Zhong Yi to wrap his down jacket tightly, and trotted all the way into the train station hall.
In half a month, the Spring Festival will come, and the flow of people in the hall is huge, and there are people who come and go carrying large bags and small bags and pushing suitcases, and walking in a hurry.
Zhong Yi stood in the hall and looked left and right for a while, not sure when Lu Yuchuan's train would arrive in the city, so as not to miss the pick-up, she was a little deeply suspicious that she had come early?
Thinking about it again, they hadn't seen each other for half a year, and the flow of people in the hall was large, she was really not at ease with Lu Yuchuan's eyesight and eyesight, in case Lu Yuchuan didn't recognize her, it would have become a sad story.
Zhong Yi raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch, there was still plenty of time, Lu Yuchuan should not get off the train and get out of the ticket gate so quickly, she still had time to make a sign, so that she didn't have to worry that Lu Yuchuan wouldn't see her in the crowd.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhong Yi held up a message that read, "Little friend Lu Yuchuan, your mother called you home for dinner!! Standing near the ticket gate, under the gaze of the crowd at each ticket gate, his face was not red and his heart was not beating.
Many years later, Zhong Yi recalled that she stood alone at the ticket gate in her junior year of high school, holding up the thunderous receiving card with both hands, and was cast a "strange" gaze by every passing melon-eating crowd, and she didn't know what supported her to be able to do it without blushing and heartbeat, and insisted on receiving Lu Yuchuan.
She pondered it carefully, at that time she just wanted to get Lu Yuchuan quickly, anyway, it was he who was embarrassed, just like the advertisement of Want Want Radio, the "protagonist" always received more attention from the audience than her.
Just when Zhong Yi's arms began to be sore, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw Lu Yuchuan wearing a black down jacket and carrying a military bag from a distance, tall and tall, particularly eye-catching in the crowd, holding a train ticket out of the ticket gate in one hand, looking left and right, and his eyes were straight on the Lei Renyu on the opposite receiving card.
Lu Yuchuan twitched the corners of his mouth, his forehead slid down N black lines, and his expression swept back and forth on Zhongyi's body a few times with an unnatural expression. Who can explain to him, he hasn't seen his sister for half a year, how did his IQ drop to such a two!
"Lu ......" Yu Chuan! Before the last two words of Zhongyi were shouted, Lu Yuchuan, who was running in front of her with a brisk walk, covered her mouth, and dragged her arm out with the other hand.
Zhong Yi's brain went blank for a moment, and her eyes widened as she looked at the big hand covering her mouth, and her eyes silently said, "What kind of new way to greet her?" She stepped back again and again with messy steps, twisting her body uneasily, trying to escape from Lu Yuchuan's big hand that imprisoned her. Zhong Yi watched as the receiving card in his hand fell into the hall in the process of struggling, lying alone on the ground, no one cared about it.
It was not until he was dragged to a safe place outside the train station that Lu Yuchuan let go of the hand covering Zhongyi's mouth, Zhongyi felt like he had been reborn, and inhaled the carbon dioxide doped with exhaust gas until his breathing was smooth and stable.
"Lu Yuchuan! Is this how you greet each other as soon as you meet?! Zhong Yi pouted, glared at Lu Yuchuan, who looked calm, angrily, and snorted a few times to express his dissatisfaction.
Lu Yuchuan's expression tightened, and he didn't give any hint to cover her mouth, put his index finger to his lips with his other hand, made a silent movement, and lowered his voice: "Shhhh ”
Zhong Yi was confused, and asked with his eyes, "What?" ”
"You promise not to yell."
Zhong Yi blinked, Lu Yuchuan slowly let go of his hand in a timely manner, pulled her to hide behind the green belt, looked around left and right to make sure that there were no suspicious people, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Hey, I said that your slogan is not a copy of a certain advertising slogan." ”
"You've found out, isn't it eye-catching and eye-catching." Zhong Yi smiled "hehe", suddenly realized that the topic was off the main track, turned back to the topic and asked: "Lu Yuchuan, honestly explain whether you were hiding someone sneakily just now?" Grandma's illness hasn't healed yet, and you've just come back to get into trouble! ”
Lu Yuchuan glanced at her, bent his hand and knocked on her forehead, and said in a low voice: "I was followed!" On the train, I found out that something was wrong, two women kept watching me and followed me off the train, I suspected that they were a pyramid scheme and wanted to trick me into entering the industry. Hey, don't say it, the leader of this MLM organization is familiar with the beauty plan in the thirty-six plans, but it's a pity that the master is not uncommon with a snake face. ”
Zhong Yi glanced at him, "Yo, it's a pity to listen to your tone." Why didn't I deceive you, it's so easy to deceive, but this IQ still comes out to deceive people. ”
Lu Yuchuan bent his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed it on Zhong Yi's head, and raised his eyebrows: "It's a pity, if you don't show up and break my plan, maybe I'll have an appointment with those two "beauties" for dinner." ”
As he spoke, Lu Yuchuan rubbed Zhongyi's hair and moved his paws to her face and pinched it. Well, it's not thin, it's still growing meat.
"Hiss~" Zhong was willing to take pain, knocked off Lu Yuchuan's paws that were pinching her face, rubbed his aching cheeks, and carefully looked at Lu Yuchuan, who was smiling harmlessly and very kindly.
It's a lot stronger than before, her hair is cut shorter, her eyes are more energetic, her cheeks are much tougher, except that her skin is a little darker, a little more heroic, it's not like crying to her on the phone or in a letter all day long, how bad the food in the army is, how difficult the conditions are, he has lost a lot of weight, and he is definitely the most popular one in Africa......
Obviously lying to her, she was worried for a while, really afraid that he would not be able to adapt to the hard life in the army.
