Eighty-nine, sleepless night

It wasn't until it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night that Zhang Nanyan finally received a pager from Li Chunxiao:

"All well!"

In just four words, Zhang Nanyan read word by word, reading stroke by stroke, did not let go of his heart, but sighed more heavily in his heart!

"Everything? Peaceful?

Why did Sister Chunxiao send a pager? What about Brother Lin? He knows I'm worried about him, so he should contact me himself! But he didn't, which proves that he must have had an accident! ”

Zhang Nanyan was so anxious that she had to call Li Chunxiao immediately to ask for clarification.

She grabbed her coat and was about to go out, but when she glanced at the bedroom, the light was still shining through the crack in the door. Xia Baiping hadn't slept yet, and she couldn't let Xia Baiping be home alone late at night.

Zhang Nanyan looked at the telephone on the table in the living room, hesitated for a moment, and plucked up the courage to walk to the bedroom.

"Knock knock."

She knocked on the door of the room, pushed it open, and saw Xia Baiping sitting on the bed, staring out of the dark window in a daze.

Zhang Nanyan said anxiously: "Madam, I want to use the phone, is it okay?" ”

Xia Baiping didn't seem to hear what she said, and still stared at the window attentively.

"Madame......"

Xia Baiping turned her face angrily, as if she wanted to scold, but after seeing Zhang Nanyan, her angry expression turned into surprise.

It's no wonder that the current Zhang Nanyan has a pair of eyes holding back tears, and they are very red; His face was as white as paper; The lips are bloodless; Hair was unkempt and sweaty on his cheeks; She clutched her coat tightly in both hands, her knuckles trembling with the force of whitening.

Perhaps frightened by Zhang Nanyan's appearance, Xia Baiping did not get angry, but asked suspiciously: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Can I use the phone?" Zhang Nanyan's voice was full of crying.

"You can use it."

Zhang Nanyan immediately turned around and ran to the living room.

She dialed Li Chunxiao's mobile phone number.

Can't get through!

Zhang Nanyan anxiously said to herself: "I can't get through!" What to do? …… That's right, Wu Zheng! ”

She desperately recalled Wu Zheng's mobile phone number, she just heard Li Chunxiao talk about it, and never dialed it, fortunately, she finally remembered!

"Toot ......"

“…… Hey, who is it? ……”

"Wu Zheng, where is Brother Lin? …… Wu Zheng! Wu Zheng! ……”

There was a sound of electricity on the phone, and Wu Zheng's voice was intermittent and blurred.

“…… Speak! How not to speak! …… Chunxiao, don't go out, it's too dangerous for you to be alone......"

The call was cut off.

Zhang Nanyan anxiously dialed it again, but could no longer get through.

Zhang Nanyan was so anxious that she was about to cry, the voice on the phone just now was messy and noisy, and she could hear the sound of many people arguing, the situation over there must be very chaotic!

She didn't know what to do!

“050…… 6592…… 0204。 Xia Baiping said a string of numbers indifferently

Zhang Nanyan looked at Xia Baiping in a daze, not understanding her intentions.

"It's the phone number of the hotel front desk."

Zhang Nanyan reacted, picked up the phone in a panic, and dialed the number.

Busy!

Busy!

She kept dialing.

Finally connected, and a busy voice came from the phone.

"Hello, Pearl Business Hotel."

"Excuse me, Brother Lin, no...... Lin Dong...... Are you there? ”

"Is it a guest staying at the hotel?"

Zhang Nanyan took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said clearly: "I came from the capital, and I am a professor and student of the university, the professor's surname is Zheng, and the student's surname is Lin, and his name is Lin Dong." ”

"Oh, looking for Professor Zheng, there were two people looking for Professor Zheng just now! Professor Zheng and his entourage did stay with us, but they are not here now, and they have not been back since they went out yesterday morning. ”

Zhang Nanyan couldn't listen to the polite comforting words on the other end of the phone, and hung up the phone in a daze.

She was helpless and helpless.

She looked at Xia Baiping in a panic and burst into tears: "Brother Lin, and Professor Zheng, I haven't been back to the hotel since I went out yesterday......"

The house is silent, and the sound of the second hand of the clock moving is clear to the ear.

Tick...... Tick...... Tick......

Xia Baiping's cold voice sounded.

"It's normal for them to go to work and not in the hotel. Didn't someone fly over to look for them? Wait for news. ”

Zhang Nanyan forced herself to calm down.

Yes! Sister Chunxiao has already gone to look for them! Be safe!

This night, Zhang Nanyan was worried and sleepless.

Finally, at 7 o'clock in the morning, I received a call from Professor Zheng.

Professor Cheng's voice sounded a little tired, but it was as calm as ever.

Professor Zheng asked about the situation at home and asked Zhang Nanyan to tell Xia Baiping that everything was going well with him and that he could come back when the flight resumed normal flights.

Zhang Nanyan anxiously asked about Lin Dong's situation.

"Lin Dong, he's fine. Oh, he's just coming back, you wait a minute, I'll call him to answer the phone...... Lin Dong, come over for a moment......"

After a few seconds, only a familiar and somewhat unfamiliar voice was heard coming from the earpiece:

"Hey, who's that?"

It was Lin Dong, his voice was the most familiar to Zhang Nanyan, even if it was transmitted through distorted radio waves, she still clearly recognized his voice.

However, his voice sounded hoarse and trance-like, as if he was being entangled in some trouble, struggling and powerless.

After worrying and anxious for a few days, I finally heard his voice at this moment, where can Zhang Nanyan still care about distinguishing subtle abnormalities? Her heart finally landed peacefully, violently rejoicing and violently afraid.

She choked up her voice: "Brother Lin, I haven't been able to find you, I'm worried." ”

“…… Xiao Nan? ......" Lin Dong paused, his voice a little chopped: "...... I'm fine, I'm fine...... It's been a busy few days, so I forgot to pager you......"

Zhang Nanyan listened to Lin Dong's voice and explained distantly. As long as he is safe, where can she still account for this!

Lin Dong told Zhang Nanyan that their work had been completed and they would be back soon. The two spoke a few words and hung up.

Zhang Nanyan put down the phone, only to feel that her body had no strength anymore. She sat down in the chair, her arms were sore and limp, her back was numb, and she just wanted to curl herself up in the chair.

It took a few minutes for her to slowly regain a little strength.

She remembered that Xia Baiping didn't sleep all night, and like herself, she waited all night.

Zhang Nanyan immediately stood up and walked to the bedroom door.

"Madam, Professor Zheng just called back, he is safe, the work has been successfully completed, and he will be back after the flight resumes in two days."

"Ha~ I don't bother to care if he comes back or not! ......" Xia Baiping subconsciously mocked meanly, but in the second half of the sentence, her voice couldn't help but tremble. She finally fell silent, and after a few minutes, she was unable to say, "Turn off the lights, close the door, I'm sleepy." ”
