Chen Ran

Before the word breakup was spoken, Xiaojuan's mother's phone called, and her voice was even more painful in the silent mountain forest, "Xiaojuan, it's not good!" Your dad was in a car accident and was sent to the hospital! I'm still rescuing, woo, what to do, daughter, what to do......!! ”

"Mom, what did you say?! What's wrong with Dad?! Xiaojuan shouted panickedly into the phone.

"Woo, daughter, your dad was hit by a car! What should I do, if he has three long and two short, how can I live...... ”

I saw Xiaojuan suddenly stunned in the moment, tears gushing out as if she couldn't wipe them off, and the hand holding the phone seemed to freeze, and she didn't even seem to notice that the phone slipped from it. My eyelids jumped, grabbed the phone, and said, "Mom, I'm Chen Ran, why did Dad have a car accident, what's the situation now?" Seeing that it was not a problem for the other head to cry all the time, he hurriedly shouted, "Mom! Mother! I'm with Xiaojuan now, don't cry first, tell me first, what's going on?! ”

"Chen Ran, woo" Xiaojuan's mother came back to her senses at this time, and sobbed intermittently, "This morning, I went out with your dad to buy groceries, and when I crossed the street, this old man was always in a hurry, and seeing that the green light at the zebra crossing was almost over, I asked him to wait for two more minutes, so he had to cross the street in the last few seconds, and then, then, out of nowhere, the car flew out, and he hit him!" Xiaojuan's mother said and whimpered again, "Chen Ran, I just looked at your father, who was knocked out in front of me, and the vegetables fell to the ground, and so much blood was shed, woo, so much blood,......"

Hearing Xiaojuan's mother describe it like this, I couldn't help but feel a knife in my heart, but I knew that I couldn't mess up my mind at this moment, so I hurriedly asked, "Mom, where is Dad now?" How's it going? Did the vehicle that caused the accident be caught? ”

"Your father is now in the First People's Hospital, just pushed into the emergency room, the driver who caused the accident did not run, and is now on the hospital's side."

Hearing that I found the person who caused the accident, I was a little relieved, and hurriedly said to the other end of the phone, "Mom, don't worry, Jiren has its own celestial phenomena, and Dad will be fine." Xiaojuan and I immediately booked the nearest flight back to N City, Dad is still in the emergency room, you must take care of your body, I asked the second aunt's family to accompany you to the hospital first. Hearing that Xiaojuan's mother was still crying on the other end of the phone, I replied, "Mom! Listen to me, don't cry, Xiaojuan and I will be able to go to N City today, and now you are alone over there, you must hold on, wait for us to go back, everything is with us, okay?! ”

Xiaojuan's mother stopped crying, "Okay, okay, Chen Ran, I understand." Son, come back soon, come back soon......"

promised to hang up the phone, regardless of Xiaojuan's muran expression beside me, I immediately dialed the phone number of the second aunt's house in N City and asked them to go to the hospital to accompany my mother first. Immediately instructed his colleagues from the consulting company to book two tickets to N City at the earliest, and everything was arranged, before he turned around and patted Xiaojuan on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, ah?" Let's hurry home and get our documents and go to the airport. ”

Xiao Juan blushed and watched me quickly arrange everything, as if she had just come back to her senses, and fell into my arms with a "wow" cry, "Chen Ran! I'm so scared! If Dad ......, I'm so scared! I'm in a mess right now, what should I do......"

Looking at the trembling figure of Xiaojuan in my arms, I suddenly felt very tired, and in just a few hours, everything was disrupted by flying disasters. But when life and death are at stake, how can I still think about the love of my children anymore, and I can't help but feel gloomy in my heart, "It's okay, Xiaojuan, Dad must be fine, everything is with me, don't be afraid" Tightening her shoulders, I sighed, straightened her shoulders, and said, "Don't cry, ah?" Cheer up, let's go, there's a lot of work waiting for us. ”

Xiaojuan stopped crying, nodded, sat up from my arms, and took out a tissue to wipe her tears, "Well, you're right, there are still a lot of things waiting for us to deal with, now is not the time to cry, let's go quickly." ”

It was close to noon, and the sun poked its head out after the rain had stopped, but Ai Ai was always hiding behind the cascading clouds, lazily glowing weakly. The mountains and forests are quiet, and there are crows flying by from time to time, and the cry is strange, which makes people's hearts feel awe. I looked at the empty temple under the pine and cypress arches, between the gray tiles and white walls, there was finally a loneliness and loneliness in the world, suddenly remembered the signature I drew last year, and then thought of all the things that happened today, there seemed to be a big stone in my heart that weighed me out of breath, as if the vicissitudes of the world were all experienced in just half a year, and countless accidents continued to hit my nerves and perseverance, but finally ended up in a slim and nowhere to be found.

I was a little at a loss for a while, I looked at Xiao Juan, whose eyes were red and swollen beside me, and I was about to break up, how could I continue this topic at this time. Things change in a blink of an eye, and I still can't say those two words to her after all, which is really ironic and powerless. And a marriage contract, ten years together, at this moment still bind me and her together to face the wind, frost, rain and snow of the world, Yue'er and I, in the face of such life and death family affection, after all, we have to take a back seat.

Suddenly I felt very sad, the road ahead was long, and it seemed that there was no end in sight, whether it was the distance between the soul and the reality.

With a sorrow in my heart, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and without hesitation, I started the car and ran straight down the mountain.

Before boarding the plane, I wanted to call Yue'er, but how can I make it clear in a few words at the moment, the time is in a hurry, I had to secretly send a message to Yue'er under the pretext of going to the bathroom, "Yue'er, I have an urgent matter here and can't rush back to City C for the time being, the return time is to be determined, you have to take care of yourself, wait for me to go back." At the end, after thinking about it, I still added four words at the end of the text message, "No need to reply"

Looking at the "sent" text message on the screen, my eyes were a little moist. At this moment, Yue'er should have received a text message, what kind of mood would she feel when she saw such scribbled short words. Especially the last four words, "no need to reply", heh, no need to reply, what an eye-catching word, straight to the most sensitive part of her heart. Do I have to say that? I kept asking myself, but I didn't want to make excuses for my inability, and I really couldn't do anything better in the face of the current situation, or even more that might be in the future. Thinking of the happiness and satisfaction of her snuggling in my arms the night before she left City C, such reluctant waiting and anticipation, who would have thought that what she was waiting for was such an ominous and vague silent square. I suddenly hated my own incompetence, if it weren't for this car accident, I should have been able to distinguish between Xiaojuan and Xiaojuan at this moment, maybe I was planning to return tomorrow, but now I am running farther away from Yue'er with my wife. If you want to talk about it, if you want to argue, I really understand what it means to have suffering! When I closed my eyes, my heart was like a knife for a while. I was in the corner of the crowded waiting hall, looking at the countless planes taking off and landing on the wide tarmac, and suddenly I realized that this creation made people, like this transparent floor-to-ceiling window, I watched the outside world flow smoothly, but I couldn't step beyond this step to walk to them.

I stood silently for a long time, and when Xiaojuan's phone urged me to board the plane, I gathered my mind a little and returned to her side to board the flight to N City with her.

It was late afternoon when we arrived in N City, and we didn't care about eating and took a taxi straight to the hospital. In the corridor outside the emergency room, all Xiaojuan's relatives in N City were present, and I saw her mother sitting on the bench closest to the emergency room with a blank expression, and next to her was the untouched boxed lunch that had long since cooled down. The second aunt held her hand tightly, and gently comforted her from time to time. When my uncle and other uncles saw us arriving, they hurried forward with anxiety and worry in their eyes.

I greeted them one by one and hurriedly asked, "How is Dad, doing now?" Did the people come out? ”

"Alas," everyone shook their heads, "they've been in for more than seven hours." ”

When Xiaojuan heard this, the corners of her eyes were already sour, and tears were about to overflow again. Hurriedly wiped it lightly and sat down beside his mother, "Mom, Chen Ran and I are back." As he spoke, he put his arm around her shoulders and pressed against her forehead and said, "Mom, it's okay, Dad will be fine......

"Daughter, you didn't see your father like that, as soon as I closed my eyes, I saw that pool of blood...... I was so scared......" The mother said and the tears were about to flow again.

I couldn't bear it, so I walked a few steps closer to this, squatted in front of Xiaojuan's mother, held her and Xiaojuan's hands and said, "Mom, it's okay, Dad is in good health, he will definitely be able to survive this hurdle, you have to have confidence in the doctor, and you have to have confidence in Dad." ”

As he spoke, the lights in the emergency room went out, the door opened, and the doctor walked out. Everyone rushed up, anxious and worried. There seemed to be an indescribable depression in the air, and I saw the doctors and nurses with heavy faces, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in my heart, so I only forced myself to calm down and asked, "Doctor, how is my dad?" ”

After a long silence, the leading doctor finally took off his mask, looked at the expectant and nervous eyes of a bunch of people, pursed his mouth, and said, "The patient was hit head-on, lost too much blood, and is old...... Sorry, we've done our best. ”

I couldn't help but feel a sinking in my chest, as if I had been hit by a heavy object, and I had to stabilize my mind to stand up a little. Xiaojuan's mother fainted before she could speak, and Xiaojuan couldn't help but fall on my shoulder and cry when she heard the words. I held Xiaojuan with one hand, supported the back of the chair beside me with the other, and looked at the busy crowd in front of me, shouting, crying, and ringing, but I seemed to have my soul withdrawn from my body, as if petrified, and I only closed my eyes blankly at the messy figures shaking around me and the flickering lights in the hospital.
