Chapter 16: Car Accident (1)
Li Yue'er
The New Year's Day holiday passed in a flash, and it was time to leave for City C in a blink of an eye. After eating with Uncle Zhao's family that day, I explained to my father that Zhao Zhiqiang is not my beloved, I think my father is not very satisfied with Zhao Zhiqiang, and after listening to my words, he was not too reluctant, but only told me to go out more often to make friends, and if there is a suitable one, you can see everywhere first, and don't always stay alone.
I said yes, but my heart was not warm. I don't like the blind date method that is too purposeful, but the first experience is too staggering, and I can't help but have a little "once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope" concerns, for fear of meeting some other strange people, disturbing the quiet life in vain, it is better to be free and easy. Besides, the administration department is so busy, how can I have the time and energy to think about life's major events at the moment. And Chen Ran, after all, is like a soft thorn, slowly piercing his heart, he doesn't feel anything different on weekdays, but once he touches it, he will have countless pains.
The fine puncture was not removed, and eventually it became an obstruction.
Kairan Chemical has made a big move at the beginning of the new year, although the plan to enter the neighboring provinces thrown out by Mr. Guo has been temporarily shelved under Chen Ran's opposition, but this step will be taken sooner or later. The result of the discussion between Chen Ran and Mr. Guo is to expand the product chain first, get rid of the disadvantage of walking on one foot, and then try to follow up the development. With the rapid expansion of Kairan in recent years, the original production line and plant have been overloaded, and it has long been unable to meet the needs of producing more products, so it is urgent to expand the plant and add new machinery and equipment. Coincidentally, a plot of land in the high-tech industrial park in City C and the attached factory building are ready to be sold, and Mr. Guo and Chen Ran feel that the size and distance are quite suitable after a field visit, and they intend to buy it. He instructed the Administration Department to come up with a report plan as soon as possible and submit it to the Board of Directors for consideration. Without further ado, Mr. Guo went to a meeting in the neighboring city today, and things in the company were a little looser, so Wang Hao took me over to collect some information, so as to complete the tasks assigned by the bosses as soon as possible.
The high-tech industrial park is in the south of City C, dozens of kilometers away from the city, and Wang Hao personally drove me there. Because the construction has only started in the past two years, part of the road leading to the industrial park is still under construction, the road is not easy to walk, from time to time to see a huge excavator rumbling operation, every other section of the pile of high earth and stone, like a hill, the road is potholed, and the vehicles are traveling, which is very difficult.
Today's line is smooth, we are accompanied by the seller to ask, record, take pictures, check the relevant qualification procedures, Wang Hao personally out of the horse, with the experience of the old road and the three inches of the tongue, the situation is very clear, the data collection is also very complete, hard day, the task was completed when it was nearly dusk, seeing that the hour is not early, we set off back to the company.
The sky is getting dark, the park is far away from the city, and there are not many vehicles. At this moment, the night is low, a crescent moon is quietly rising, and the fog is gradually penetrating, and a few flickering lights in the distance, there is a little bit of thin warmth in the haze. Wang Hao and I sat in the car, chatting from time to time, the warm breeze of the air conditioner rippled in bursts, as if lying on the soft grass of Sanchun, with sporadic itching in the fine comfort, but also relieved the fatigue of the day.
"Where did you go on New Year's Day?" Wang Hao asked casually.
"I didn't go anywhere, so I went back to my hometown. If I don't go back to see my dad, he'll definitely have to chase me to City C and beat me. I laughed.
"Oh? Ha, too, this old man, it's all like this," Wang Hao said with empathy, "I usually say that you can work with peace of mind, don't worry about them, don't run home all the time, but I really haven't gone back on vacation, and I complained again." ”
"Yes, my parents must have hoped to see us at any time by their side," I asked casually, "Manager Wang also went home on New Year's Day?" ”
"It's just not, I went to Sanya to play for two days, and I ended up with a good meal at home" Wang Hao laughed at himself, "So I can understand what you just said." ”
Sanya? My mind suddenly came up with the two tickets to Sanya on Wang Hao's desk that day, and I couldn't help but move in my heart, and asked quietly, "Sanya?" That must be very warm, right, Manager Wang went alone? ”
Wang Hao realized that he seemed to have missed his mouth, and hesitated slightly, "No, I went with my friends", after speaking, he seemed to glance at me, and I only pretended not to know.
In fact, Wang Hao didn't know how relaxed my heart was at the moment. Although I don't like Zhang Xiaoqi as a person, she is indeed infatuated with Wang Hao, and it is better to be able to marry her sweetheart than to be affectionate and unattached. Besides, Zhang Xiaoqi was already very sorry for me because of Wang Hao, and their flying just freed me, so I don't have to dodge in front of the two of them anymore, so that the three of them have all fulfilled their wishes, how can it not be easy?
But it seems that Wang Hao misunderstood what I meant, and when he saw that I didn't have time to speak, he coughed lightly, "It's just an ordinary friend, and now it's just going to talk about something, and now it's all settled." ”
My brow furrowed, was it necessary for him to explain it to me like that? But when he said this, it would be strange if I didn't answer, but I really didn't know how to answer, so I had to nod and say, "Ah, yes." ”
Neither of them spoke for a while, and the atmosphere in the car was suddenly a little awkward, I unconsciously opened a little window, and the cold wind outside rushed in, and both of them were excited, and I couldn't help but say, "It's so cold." In my panic, I forgot to roll up the window.
Seeing this, Wang Hao pressed the control button on the side of the steering wheel to help me close the window, and said casually, "It's so cold outside, open the window." ”
"Ah, yes," I couldn't find a suitable reason to prevaricate, so I had to say, "Maybe the heating is turned on too much, a little stuffy, and I turned it on, but I don't know it's so cold outside."
"Hmm" Wang Hao replied sullenly, turned down the heat, but didn't say anything more.
For a moment, the air in the car seemed to stop flowing, and only the breathing sound of the two people seemed to fluctuate in the quiet carriage. I shifted my sore body uneasily, searching my mind for the right topic to break the silence as soon as possible. But I heard Wang Hao suddenly call me softly, "Yue'er".
My heart was shocked, this was the first time he didn't call me Xiao Li, but called me by my name, his eyes seemed to be looking intently ahead, the hand holding the steering wheel was slightly white because of the force, he put away his hippie smile, but he didn't speak immediately, as if he was brewing something, and as if he had made a lot of determination, he took a deep breath, turned his head to look at me, "Yue'er, I ......"
"Manager Wang!" I suddenly made a loud alarm bell, intercepted his words, and the voice was so loud that I startled myself, "Manager Wang, it's so dark, you have to drive well, this road is too difficult to walk!" ”
Wang Hao looked at me with his mouth slightly open, thinking that I didn't expect that I would suddenly interrupt him so loudly, and the words that were about to come out were stuck in his throat, and after a long time, I saw the light in his eyes dim, sighed silently, turned his head to look ahead, and replied, "Okay." ”
The heart I was carrying was just a little more relaxed, and the hands holding the backpack were already oozing layers of fine sweat, and the texture in my palms was so slippery that I could barely grasp the strap of the backpack. I don't think I don't know what Wang Hao was going to say just now, and it is precisely because I understand that I can't let him say it. Once that thin layer of paper is pierced, many things will be turned upside down, and it will be good for me, him, and even Zhang Xiaoqi to stop everything before it is difficult to recover.
I just don't understand, since Wang Hao has gone to Sanya, why would he still make such a move? Didn't he go with Zhang Xiaoqi? It's unlikely, it's so coincidental about air tickets. Looking back on the past few days, it seems that Zhang Xiaoqi has not seen too much joy beyond words, could it be that they went to Sanya, but they were not together? ! I can't help but feel a little scared, this is too unbelievable!
If so, how do I deal with myself? This disturbing situation that can't be avoided, why did I just encounter it? Suddenly, I thought of Chen Ran again, and I couldn't sort it out even more, and for a while, new and old worries came together, which made people's hearts cold like frost, and Wu was annoyed.
The crescent moon in the sky was like a hook, and a few scattered stars shimmered in the distance. Wang Hao drove silently, his shadow declining. I sat next to me, and my heart was not gloomy. It is undeniable that Wang Hao is a good leader, but even if I have been very cautious, it still hurts his heart, even with Zhang Xiaoqi, although there is no right or wrong in the relationship, but after all, I have to go through my own level, and there is no way to replace outsiders who are helpless.
"Xiao Li, are you hungry?" Wang Hao opened his mouth to ask me, and his voice had returned to his usual tone, "I have a few biscuits in my bag, if you are hungry, you can fill your stomach first."
It is estimated that he also wanted to ease the embarrassing atmosphere of Shicai, so he thought of using such a topic to divert attention. In that case, why don't I push the boat with the current, which is harmless and respectable. So I smiled and said, "Say it earlier, Manager Wang, my stomach has been growling!" ”
Wang Hao couldn't help but smile and handed me the bag, "Take it yourself." ”
"Howler," I graciously took it, flipped out the biscuit, and asked him, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
"I'm not hungry, but seeing that you eat so sweet, it hooked out my gluttony" Wang Hao looked at me and smiled, "Come on, get me a piece"
I laughed and handed him a biscuit. This kind of Wang Hao is the Wang Hao I usually know, uninhibited, free and easy, and I can't help but be grateful in my heart, thank him for his restraint, so that each other still has a chance to return to the old ways.
Wang Hao was about to take the biscuit from my hand, when suddenly a bright light shot in front of me, shaking the two of us unconsciously closed our eyes, and then there was a shrill horn, and a truck turned from the back of the dirt slope in front of me, and the speed was so fast that it was about to collide with us. In a hurry, Wang Hao slammed the steering wheel, the car skidd, and hit straight on the left dirt slope.
I don't know how long later, I woke up to find my head on the airbag that had been deployed, and it was dark in front of me, presumably the dirt and rocks that had been knocked down had covered the windshield in front of me. I tried to move my body, although there was some pain, but I still felt it, and in a drowsy I saw that my bag had been knocked to the ground, and the contents were scattered, I took my mobile phone, and saw Wang Hao lying on the airbag by the faint light, unconscious, the body in front of the left was seriously damaged, and the broken glass splashed on his face and hands, making several wounds. I called his name loudly, but there was no response, and I pushed the door hard and stumbled out of the car before I remembered that I should call 120 to save someone.
I dialed the phone in a panic, and saw that Wang Hao was still trapped in the car, and the scenes of the explosion caused by the damage to the fuel tank after the car accident in the TV series suddenly appeared in my mind, and my heart couldn't help but rise, and I felt that Wang Hao should be brought out first no matter what, no matter whether the car would explode or not, it was safer to stay outside than inside.
Thinking of this, I limped to the other side of the car. Although he was not seriously injured, he was inevitably slightly injured under the strong impact, and every step made people feel pain in the flesh and skin. Wang Hao's car door had been deformed, and it fell loose when I pulled it, and seeing that his body was not stuck by a foreign object, I shouted his name while trying my best to drag him to the side of the road. I fell to the ground, gasping for breath, my muscles twitching and aching, exhausted by the fear of disaster and my innate instinct to survive, as if I was going to faint.
Lying on the cold road, the terrible night wind whimpered in the air, with a bitter chill, like a small steel knife rustling against my body and scraping over, I didn't know if there were wounds on my body, but I felt that every muscle and blood seemed to be separated from the bones as sore. The crescent moon on the horizon hung high, silently sprinkling a clear glow, everything seemed to have not changed from before, but all the embarrassment and tossing thoughts in the carriage just now were like a world away in the face of this sudden car accident.
Suddenly there was a wave of fear, what would happen if you hit that truck head-on today? With that kind of speed, that kind of impact, I, will I, be here? The heart shrank by itself, and Chen Ran's appearance suddenly appeared in front of him, such warm eyes and smiles, even if they don't belong to me alone, but they can see and see, it is also the beauty of reality, maybe one day I will lose, maybe one day I will leave, but I never thought that this kind of loss and departure are separated by yin and yang.
Under the inky sky, the world is cold and vast, I am shocked to realize that life is so short and fragile in the fear of the rest of my life, those who are intrigued in the workplace on weekdays, those who are bored and depressed in the fireworks and smoke are so small as dust, only those one or two people, one or two people who suddenly realized after encountering the danger of life and death, is the greatest meaning of life.
The sound of the flute of 120 pierced the long night sky, from far to near, bringing the breath of the world and the hope of life, the blue and red alternating lights flickered, shaking people could not open their eyes, the doctors and nurses in white coats quickly got out of the car, skillfully did a preliminary examination for me and Wang Hao, and then carried the ambulance and roared away. Wang Hao had already woken up at this moment, his injuries were obviously more serious than mine, and it was very laborious to turn his neck with an oxygen mask, but he still nodded slightly to me lying next to me after learning that I had dragged him out of the car, and there was a starry light in his eyes. I don't know if Wang Hao's move is also like me because of this unexpected car accident and unprecedented ignition of life, I just feel that no matter how many people around me are crowded, the change of personnel has nothing to do with me, at this moment, I want to see him more than ever, the person who filled my mind and body after I brushed shoulders with death, I just want to see him - Chen Ran.
