Zhang Xueyao was not embarrassed by a kiss, but I became a little uncomfortable.

Early in the morning, I left Zhang Xueyao's house, walked to my residence, the dawn was just dawning, the hard-working cleaning aunt on the street was already cleaning the street, I passed by a breakfast shop, bought two steamed buns, a cup of soy milk, sat on the bench and ate slowly.

There were a few taxis passing by on the road, as if they had been driving all night, listless, and slow.

I walked for about twenty minutes and returned home, and when I walked into the basement, the light suddenly became pitch black, and I didn't turn on the wall switch, for fear of affecting the rest of the scumbag.

With the help of the light of my phone, I quietly groped for my bed and wanted to change into a set of clothes, because after I got drunk and vomited unconscious yesterday, there was a lot of vomit stuck to this suit, which made people feel very uncomfortable wearing it.

Brother Scum was still asleep, and I rummaged through my clothes gently, for fear of waking up Brother Scum.

"Only now?"

Brother Scum's hoarse voice sounded with questioning.

I didn't respond like a thief.

Brother Scumbag lit a cigarette and took a few deep breaths, and wisps of smoke suddenly drifted out of the basement.

The lights in the room were lit, and the scumbag brother rubbed the corners of his eyes and continued to ask, "Where did you stay at that girl's house last night?" ”

I nodded a little flusteredly, and then hurriedly explained: "Brother scumbag, I drank too much last night and couldn't come back, so I lay on the sofa in her living room for a night. ”

Brother Scumbag frowned after hearing this, and didn't answer, he stood up with a cigarette in his mouth, and went out with his slippers to make it convenient.

When I saw him walk out, I hurriedly found a set of shorts and shorts in my duffel bag, quickly changed them, and I took the dirty clothes out of the basement and threw them into the large laundry tub in the yard.

Then I sat down on the bench, lit a cigarette, and as soon as I took the first puff, my stomach began to cramp like a protest, and I retched for a while, and then I snuffed out the cigarette in my hand, and I only felt my eyes blooming, my head was swollen, and I was in great pain.

Brother Scumbag poured a glass of water and brought it to me, and asked me lightly, "When will you go back to your hometown?" ”

I took the cup, took a big sip of water, looked at the scumbag brother and said, "If you have today's ticket, then leave today, if not, then buy tomorrow." ”

"Why don't you take a plane back, it's fast, and you don't have to suffer."

After hearing this, I smiled bitterly and said: "There is no airport in our small town, and the nearest airport is far away from my home, so I just bought a sleeper and slept all the way home, which is also quite enjoyable." ”

"Oh, then if you can't leave today, just wash your clothes at home, and tell me when you're sure when to leave, and I'll send you."

"Don't need to be a scumbag, I'll take a taxi directly to the train station and get on the train."

"Don't talk nonsense, have you eaten breakfast?"

"Uh, I did."

Brother Scumbag was busy again, boiled a pot of millet porridge, boiled two salted duck eggs, and ate it in a big gulp.

After sending off the scumbag, I took out my mobile phone, checked the return ticket for the past few days, looked carefully for a long time, and did not find the day's, I checked the next day's, there was a car, but it was very early, at seven o'clock in the morning, I booked one directly.

After buying the ticket, the mobile phone rang, it was Sun Kai calling, and I was busy answering.

"Xiao Tao, when are you coming back?"

Sun Kai was on the phone with a deep urging tone.

"Well, tomorrow's ticket, probably the next morning."

"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'm just one of you, come back quickly, everyone misses you a lot, come back brother to accompany you to have a good drink."

I thought to myself, after drinking like this, my body is probably going to be scrapped, so I smiled and said, "Okay, not dishonoring the mission." ”

The two of us chatted briefly a few more words, and then hung up in a hurry.

I finished washing the dirty laundry in the laundry tub and walked out of the yard.

The weather in the city was still sweltering, with thick clouds and a hot feeling of hot wind, and even though I had lived here for months, I still hadn't fully integrated into the subtropical climate.

I came to the fruit supermarket and wanted to go to the hospital to see Professor Liu before leaving, after all, she was the one who wanted to do me a lot of help, so I bought some dragon fruit, oranges, bananas and other fruits, and took a taxi to the inpatient department.

I walked through the spacious corridor of the inpatient department with a plastic bag of fruit, and saw Professor Liu's ward open, and an old man in his 60s came out, I had never seen this person, so I hurriedly walked over.

The old man was startled by my haste, and as soon as I reached the door, he stopped me and asked, "Young man, who are you looking for?" ”

I looked around the ward and found that Professor Liu's bed had changed its face, so I hurriedly asked the old man, "Excuse me, why is the patient who lived here before, an old woman in her seventies, missing?" ”

The old man was wearing a dark gray sweatshirt, his hair was unkempt, a pair of black woolen trousers, which were stained with mud, and a pair of rubber shoes, which could no longer distinguish the color.

He frowned after hearing this, coughed twice and said, "Oh, that patient has been discharged." ”

I was a little short-circuited for a while, and I thought to myself, didn't Professor Liu say that she would wait for me to come back before I was discharged from the hospital, could it be that she and Uncle David went to New York first?

I hurriedly took out my mobile phone, found the mobile phone number that Professor Liu gave me last time, and dialed it directly.

The phone went through, and my nervousness was relieved a lot, beep, beet, beet...

"Hey"

The phone rang, it was Professor Liu's kind and hoarse voice, and my hanging heart finally landed.

"Liu, Professor Liu, I'm Wang Tao, have you been discharged from the hospital?"

The other party thought for a moment, and then said kindly: "Yes, I am not used to living in the hospital, so I simply moved to live at home." ”

When I heard this, I was completely relieved.

"Uh, where is your house, I want to go over and see you."

"Aren't you going back to your hometown for the wedding, haven't you left yet?"

"I'll leave tomorrow, I want to see you before I go"

I took the plastic bag in one hand and walked to the next bench and sat down.

"Okay, it just so happens that your Uncle David is going to contact you today, you need an ID card to go abroad for a passport, as well as a no criminal record, as well as a physical examination report, etc., he will contact you at that time."

I was a little excited after hearing this, and quickly thanked her and said, "Thank you so much, are you okay, oh, by the way, where do you live, I'll go over immediately." ”

After Professor Liu gave her the full address of her home, I hurried out of the inpatient unit and flagged down a taxi in front of the hospital.

The taxi drove for about half an hour, and then came to Professor Liu's community, which is a teacher's building, with a uniform floor height of 15 floors, the color of the building is light brown, and the windows are semi-arc-shaped, which is very European-style architectural style.

I took the elevator to the sixth floor, found the house number, rang the doorbell, and a moment later, a middle-aged woman opened the door.

She wore a pink apron and rubber gloves in her hands, her hair was a little messy, her eyes were large but not looking, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were deep, as if they had been carved by a knife.

I asked her in some surprise, "Is this Professor Liu's home?" ”

"Oh yes, come in."

She speaks loudly and urgently, and at first glance she is a person with a straightforward personality.

She let me into the house, I changed my slippers, handed her the fruit in my hand and said, "Where is Professor Liu?" ”

She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, "Lying in the bedroom, well, that room." ”

I followed her gaze, and it was a white wooden door, the texture on the wooden door was clearly visible, and the pattern resembled the branches and leaves of an orchid.

I looked at the living room again, and the whole home style was inclined to elegant white, with white ceilings, white coffee tables, white sofas, and white TV cabinets.

There are unknown carvings on the TV cabinet, various tea sets on the coffee table, and several pots of flowers and green plants on the balcony.

A transparent crystal chandelier hangs in the living room, highlighting the brightness of the whole space, giving people a fresh and comfortable feeling.

I was just looking at it when Professor Liu's weak voice came from the bedroom: "It's Wang Tao here, let her in." ”

After hearing this, I hurriedly replied, "It's me, Professor Liu." ”

With that, he walked towards the mysterious bedroom.

I gently pushed the door open, and a faint scent of herbs came to my face, and I took a deep breath and instantly felt refreshed.

Professor Liu was half-lying on the bed, still looking haggard.

But her face was slightly ruddy, much better than when she was in the hospital.

This bedroom is very large, like a small living room, sofa, TV, coffee table, bookshelf everything, but with the living room just now is completely two styles, this bedroom as a whole gives people the feeling of nostalgia, old-fashioned TV, wooden coffee table, wooden sofa, even the bookshelf is a unified Nanmu color, ancient rhyme, the taste of books is very strong.

Professor Liu saw that I was a little restrained, so he smiled faintly and said, "Don't see outside, sit down." ”

I walked over to a single sofa and sat down, looked at Professor Liu and asked, "Are you feeling better, and are you feeling unwell when you go home?" ”

"It's no big deal, just keep it at home."

I was also a little relieved after hearing this, and asked again, "What about Uncle Dawei?" ”

Professor Liu stroked his falling gray hair and said softly: "He still has some things to do when he returns to China, so he found a nanny to take care of me. ”

I understood what she meant, and at this time, the phone rang, it was Zhang Xueyao, and I thought to myself, what is she looking for me again.

I apologized and said to Professor Liu, "I, I'm going to answer the phone." ”

Professor Liu smiled and waved his hand, and I walked out of the bedroom and answered the phone.

"Hey, you, where are you?"

She spoke slowly, as if she was embarrassed by the kiss in the morning, as if I had forcibly kissed her.

"I'm at Professor Liu's house"

"Oh, when are you leaving?"

She said this very eagerly, but also a little weak.

"Leave tomorrow morning"

"When will you be back?"

She asked impatiently.

I thought to myself, what is the matter with this girl today, so I replied, "It won't take a few days, it's just a wedding, and I'll be back soon." ”

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone, and I felt a little embarrassed, so I asked her, "Is your dad okay with drinking so much yesterday?" ”

After hearing this, she seemed to be very angry, and said contemptuously: "Who cares if he has anything to do." ”

I smiled and said, "Miss, let's take a break, your dad is also good for you." ”

"I'll see you off tomorrow morning."

"No, Brother Scumbag will send me to the station, you can go to work with peace of mind."

After chatting for a while, we hung up the phone, and Professor Liu left me at her house for lunch, and explained to me some things about going to New York, and I said goodbye to her.
