So during the holidays at home, I created opportunities for my father and mother many times and arranged for them to meet. After the third "chance encounter", my mother came to talk to me. My temperament is like my mother a lot of the time, and I don't drag the mud and ask directly: "Xiaoru, do you disapprove of me marrying someone else?" ”

I panicked for a moment, then replied calmly, "No." But he couldn't help but say: "Dad is different now than before, you can't ...... Give it another try? ”

Mom looked at me deeply for a long time and nodded, "Got it." ”

After that, my mother didn't mention remarriage to me again, and she didn't introduce others to me. And my dad seems to have adjusted, he shifted his focus more back to City A, and the circus no longer attends all the venues, because with his fame, magic performers will come to visit. Dad even had plans to start teaching classes and spread the concept of magic.

In my opinion, the relationship between my father and my mother is getting better, and maybe one day they will announce to me that they are going to remarry.

Until that day, I was disillusioned.

It was an important show that had been advertised for a long time, and it was held on Christmas Eve, the day before Christmas, as a New Year's gift. Dad became famous as the finale performance "Flying Eaves Walking on the Wall". Although my dad has performed this show countless times, I know that a lot of elements have been added to the background, and a lot of new props have been added. And the props are all made by my father.

My dad gave me two tickets to the Grand Theater in advance, and although Zhou Yu didn't like magic very much, I still called him. He also answered on the phone, but I waited outside the Grand Theater until the show started, but no one came.

I couldn't get through when I called him, and I didn't want to miss the performance, so I sent a text message to Zhou Yu and went in first.

During this period, I was a little restless, Zhou Yu rarely released my pigeons, and I couldn't help but think that he really resisted his father's performance so much?

I sent a few more text messages and didn't get a reply, and I felt unhappy. Can't you call in advance if you don't come? What is that? The mood was affected, and the show in the stands felt boring, until the host announced that my father was going to play, and I focused on watching it carefully.

But as soon as my father came on the field, I felt that he was in a wrong state, and others couldn't see it, how could I not understand that I was his daughter. Circling the stage again, I found that the assistant was not Wei Lai, but a strange face.

Although I am not in this industry, I understand that a magic show does not depend on the magician himself, it requires the cooperation of exquisite props and a very tacit assistant. I wonder when my dad changed assistants, and in a way, I have to admit that Wei Lai has a talent for magic, and he can grasp every point very accurately, and the cooperation with his father can be said to be seamless.

Now with a new face, it is obvious that this person is unfamiliar. There were a few times when the details were a little bit off, and they were covered up by the experienced dad, and it was the most exciting part. In the past, Dad didn't wear a seat belt, and people would walk sideways on the side of the six-meter-high platform, and in order to increase the special effects, Dad's clothes would have blue luminous flashes, causing a strong visual conflict to the audience.

When my dad stood on the high platform, inexplicably, my eyelids began to jump.

The hands hanging at my side clenched unconsciously, and even when my father's body turned sideways and gradually walked down, my breath was held, but in the next moment, a blue light flashed by, and there was a dull bang.

There was a deathly silence in the audience!

I don't know who screamed first, waking everyone up. After that, there was a bang, a noise, a boo, and I slowly got out of my chair and ran backstage. I can't believe that my dad fell off that high platform just now!

The backstage is out of order.

No matter how I explain it, the security guards who maintain order at the scene refuse to let them go. I could only look through the crowd to find my father, and finally saw him sitting with his back in a dimly lit corner, and there were medical staff next to him.

This performance is a foreign exchange show, and there are media and leaders underneath, and the impact of such a performance accident is very great. The media did not miss such an opportunity to investigate the situation, and learned from the person in charge that the father fell down and was not a big problem, but he sprained his foot, and he would go to the hospital for a full body examination later.

Someone asked what caused the accident at this performance? Is it the magician's own skill or something else?

The person in charge did not give a clear answer, and only prevaricated ambiguously.

I caught a gap and got into it without anyone noticing my cat's waist, but it was soon discovered. At that time, I was only a few meters away from my father, and he turned his head when he heard the sound, and his eyes met me for a moment, but the next moment he drooped lonely.

When I was ejected from the backstage, someone stopped me and turned my head to see the unfamiliar male assistant.

He said: Teacher Jia asked me to come out and tell you, he is fine, you can go back first.

I eagerly stepped forward and grabbed him and asked, "What happened just now?" Why did my dad fall off it?

His eyes darkened, and he said guiltily: I didn't cooperate with Teacher Jia well, and I don't know why Wei Lai didn't come, so I was temporarily replaced. I've only watched Mr. Jia's performance before, and I've never officially operated it, and I just accidentally pulled the wrong rope. Fortunately, the safety mat under the bottom was thick, and Mr. Jia only sprained his foot, which was fine.

The source of the accident is here, but I have nothing to say.

Turning his eyes and looking at the place again, the person in charge stood in front of his father and said something, looking excited, but his father buried his head and never said a word.

The higher you climb, the more painful the fall will be.

Maybe this fall is just a sprain, but the psychological weight bearing is afraid that it will be aggravated.

I looked around, and there was no pity, comfort or sympathy on the faces around me, and they all regarded this incident as a lively watch, they were curious, mocking, and felt that it could become a point of conversation after dinner.

After another look at my father's shrunken back, I turned and walked out of the theater.

took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Yu's number again, and this time it worked. It only rang twice, and it was picked up, and Zhou Yu's voice came: "Jia Xiaoru I'm sorry, I can't catch up with you because of something." ”

I asked, "Zhou Gongjin, can you find Wei Lai?" ”

He seemed stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

"I want to see her."

"What's going on? Jia Xiaoru? You're in a bit out of shape. Zhou Yu was very sensitive, and he immediately sensed that something was wrong from my tone and behavior. I didn't want to explain what had just happened to him on the phone, so I said, "I'll tell you later, and now you can help me find Wei Lai first." "In my mind, if others can't find Wei Lai, he Zhou Yu will definitely be able to find it.

But after listening to Zhou Yu's pause, a clear voice came from afar: "Wei Lai is here with me." ”

My heart tightened, and I doubted my ears, "What did you say?" ”

"She and Miko are next to me right now. You take a taxi to Tianyu Accord on Penghu Road, and I'll tell you when you come over, and call me when you're there. ”

I snapped the phone, my fingernails digging into my palms. Looking up at the night sky, there was a haze.

Did you know that you shattered the dignity of a magician. If this is your revenge on me, then please come at me.

Sitting in the taxi, my head was full of my father's lonely and sad back, and I felt my eyes moist when I thought about it. Dad actually wanted to take this opportunity to reach the top again, and then retire to concentrate on being a magic teacher and teaching some students to do magic shows.

He had hinted to me that my mother wanted to live a stable life.

So he actually wants to be with his mother again, and even though his mother had the idea of remarrying before, she is also trying to get back together with his father.

I think everything is going in a good direction, and who knew that such an accident would happen.

Tomorrow's news and newspapers don't know what to say about this performance accident, which will inevitably deal a heavy blow to my father.

When I arrived at Penghu Road, I didn't call Zhou Yu, I walked directly into the store, my eyes searched, and I didn't find anyone. A waiter came to ask, I thought about it, and lowered my head to press Zhou Yu's number.

The ringtone of the mobile phone came from a nearby private room, the door was not closed, only half-hidden, and the fingers pushed it open with a slight push.

Zhou Yu, who was standing by the door, came into my sight, his eyebrows were frowning, and his expression was not very good.

There seemed to be a soft sobbing sound coming from inside, needless to say, it must have been Wei Lai.

I suddenly felt disgusted, why did I come to Zhou Yu again and again? This man is my boyfriend.

I was about to push the door in, when suddenly the mobile phone in my pocket rang, and the movement immediately attracted Zhou Yu to turn his head, and he saw me. When I picked up the phone, Zhou Yu was walking towards me.

But in the next moment, the phone in my hand slipped from my fingertips.

I don't know if my phone was broken, but I just knew that I would turn around mechanically and run away. When I grabbed the door, I was dragged from behind, and I couldn't hear what Zhou Yu's mouth was saying when he opened and closed.

The mouth asks over and over again: "You let go." ”

He stubbornly refused to let go, opened his hand to hug me, hugged me tightly in his arms, spoke with his lips close to my ear, and entered his eardrums in a rare voice: "Jia Xiaoru, don't you run away every time you ask without asking?" I'll explain it to you. ”

I raised my head and looked at him with a pleading gaze, "Zhou Gongjin, I beg you, will you let me go?" I ......" and the latter words could not be said because I was trembling all over.

His dark eyes flashed with doubts, but he resolutely refused to let go, he said, "No, let you go, and you will have to mess with me like last time." This time we settled the matter at once, I didn't have anything with Wei Lai, this time it was her who had an accident......"

"Shut up! I don't want to listen to you, my dad had an accident, he had a car accident! ”

I screamed hysterically at the last sentence.

Zhou Yu froze, his face stunned.

He then stuffed me into the back seat of the car and repeatedly asked me where the accident was.

Just now, an unfamiliar voice on the phone was asking, asking me if I knew the owner of the mobile phone, because the owner had a car accident and fell on the road, and the mobile phone number that the owner didn't dial in the end was mine.

Thinking desperately in the confusion, I finally remembered that the address reported by the caller was on Heping Road.

In fact, there is no need to deliberately look for it, because the 120 ambulance is whistling. As soon as Zhou Yu stopped, I rushed out of the car, but I felt that my legs were weak and planted forward, and Zhou Yu hurriedly ran over to help me up.

Pushing aside the crowd, I saw my father.

His face was covered with blood, and he was carried to a stretcher by the paramedics, and was about to be sent to the ambulance, and there was a large pool of blood in the vacant space under him, and a big, big peace fruit was rolled.

Today is Christmas Eve......
