Chapter 19: The Last Straw

Autumn is deep, the trees are yellow, and the abandoned old leaves are fluttering down into the desolate canals.

- Eventful.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Shen Xing suddenly blurted out.

Last night, she tried to hang up the phone in silence, but heard Lin Minsheng's low and compromised voice: "I miss you, I miss you very much." Don't let me find you anymore, hearing your voice makes me feel alive again. ”

She burst into tears.

There is never a contest in love, only whether you know how to give or not.

Lin Minsheng is a person who responds to everything and has a falling body, he once said that love can't stand the wordless wait, and she has become the "wordless" person, not replying to text messages, not answering the phone, and deliberately not charging.

Silence hurts the most.

She wanted to tell him, and she missed him, but there was always a lingering shadow in her mind. That day, my mother's aggressive appearance and red eyes burst into tears, which kept her awake at night. She was like a child who had done something wrong and was waiting to be judged, she had no courage, no pace of her own, and the pace she wanted to follow could not be found in the mess.

She really wanted to escape to a deep mountain and old forest, thinking about nothing, being a confused savage, not thinking about love, and not thinking about the future.

However, just when she was almost overwhelmed by these, the arrival of another news became the last straw that pressed her.

There was an accounting theory exam in the school that day, for which Shen Xing had been preparing for more than half a month, but his mother suddenly called.

Before answering the phone, Shen Xing took several deep breaths, she and her mother hadn't spoken since the last time, and she hadn't gone home, one was afraid, the other was angry, and more was afraid.

Shen Xing answered the phone with apprehension, but what he heard was his mother's panicked cry: "Shen Xing, your father fell down the ladder and injured his leg, and now he is unconscious...... Fell and broke his head......"

The news was like five thunderbolts, and the crying of my mother on the phone and the sound of the ambulance aggravated the anxiety in my heart. She left her books, ignored the exam, and hurried to the hospital.

All the way, she prayed that nothing big would happen, and she was willing to exchange her future, her happiness, her love, and everything she had.

When he arrived at the hospital, Shen's father had been sent to the emergency room and was still unconscious. The pants on the left leg of the fall were cut open, there was no external injury, and the bone on the lower leg was clearly seen bulging, which was a fracture.

How much it should hurt.

Looking at his father's pale face, Shen Xing's heart also hurt.

My mother still had tears on her face, her hair was a little messy, and she was a lot haggard all of a sudden.

She was frightened, scared to the point where she didn't look like she used to. In the past, Shen Xing saw her mother's disgusted look from her father, but in fact, she loved him very much and was afraid of losing him, so she would become discouraged in an instant.

"The family went to go through the hospitalization procedures." The doctor reminded.

Mom didn't react, and her eyes kept falling on Dad.

"Okay."

Shen Xing nodded, wiped away his tears and went to the service desk to go through the hospitalization procedures.

She has been growing up under the protection of her parents, and she has not experienced any ups and downs in life, and on the way to come, she felt that the sky was going to fall, but she grew up in an instant, and felt that she should do something for her family and become their dependence.

Fortunately, everything went well.

The beds that had been tight suddenly became vacant again, and the operation was quickly arranged.

Thank goodness for that.

Although it was not a major operation, they were still very anxious waiting outside the operating room, and their mother's hand shook and shook in Shen Xing's palm, which made her suddenly feel dependent on each other.

Not long after, my father was pushed out of the operating room, with a thick cast on his foot, but he was still unconscious.

The doctor kindly told them: "It's not a big deal, it's a slight concussion, it's a problem of age, so wake up slowly." ”

Their hanging hearts finally landed, and their mother's spirit came back little by little.

"Mom, what the hell is going on? How did Dad fall off a ladder? ”

After returning to the ward and almost settling down, Shen Xing asked cautiously.

"I'm in a bad mood these days, your dad saw the jujube in the backyard red, so he had to go to fetch jujube for me to eat, climb the ladder, and the result was ......" Mom couldn't help crying again.

Get up on the wrong side of the bed.

These words pierced Shen Xing's heart mercilessly like a needle.

Why are you in a bad mood? Because who's in a bad mood? She knows it.

The bane is all with her.

They didn't continue the conversation, and then the nurse reminded them that they could go home and get some groceries and a change of clothes, and the patient would stay in the hospital for about half a month.

Mom quickly made a list.

On the way home, Lin Minsheng called, but Shen Xing did not answer. There seemed to be nothing to say, and there seemed to be no way to talk about it, and she had no time to take care of it.

After taking the things, Shen Xing hurried to the hospital again.

Lin Minsheng didn't let it go, and sent several text messages repeatedly, she just read it hastily, and then simply replied: Busy, I'm free to call you.

She didn't understand why she didn't tell him about his current situation, maybe she felt that it was useless to say, he was 108,000 miles away from her.

She knew from the beginning that geography was the biggest obstacle to long-distance relationships, but she just felt that they would be an exception, and now it seems that she is too confident.

When she returned to the hospital, her mother told her that her father snorted twice just now, and it was estimated that she would wake up tonight, so she kept an inch by the bedside, and Shen Xing took care of the errands. She went to the cafeteria to fetch food, to the water room to fetch water, and completely forgot about the call back.

Lin Minsheng couldn't wait to call again, and when Shen Xing made the second trip to the water, at the end of the corridor of the hospital, she picked up the phone as if she had made up her mind.

"How's your exam going today?" Lin Minsheng greeted him gently on the phone as always.

"I didn't take the test."

"Didn't you say ...... yesterday"

"Lie to you."

The corridor was full of people and the groans of patients, which were noisy.

"Where are you?"

"Where else could it be, school." Her voice was cold.

"What's wrong with you?"

There are some words that Shen Xing has been brewing.

"You have to tell me something."

"Stop calling." She finally said what she had been brewing in her heart.

"Isn't it inconvenient?" Lin Minsheng suddenly stuttered.

"I've talked enough about this kind of long-distance love, and I'm tired of talking, so don't call again."

"Did something happen to you, I'll go to you tomorrow, okay?"

"Don't come to me, haven't you noticed, we've actually been just falling in love with the phone, as long as one party turns off the phone, I don't even know where the other party is, how to find it." Shen Xing took a deep breath and continued, "The person I love must be where my hands can touch, where my eyes can see, and where my heart can feel, and you ......." ”

"Don't talk about it." Lin Minsheng interrupted her, "You calm down first, let's talk another day, okay?" Or meet and talk. ”

His voice was close to supplication.

"No need to change the day, just today. Let's break up, stop texting, stop calling. ”

Parted.

This is Lin Minsheng's most taboo word, the last time Shen Xing said it was just a joke, and he almost turned his face. This time she was solemn and resolute.

There was no response on the other end of the phone, followed by a busy tone.

That's the end of it.

Shen Xing couldn't help squatting down and whimpering anymore.

The person who accidentally broke into her life, the person who brought his own light, will never have anything to do with her, and there will be no room for maneuver.
