Chapter XXVI: The Eve of the Storm II

If it weren't for the printed address, and if the building number was exactly the same as the information on the printed card, no one would have thought that there were still people living in this abandoned building that was once jokingly called a slum by the children of the high school district. And living is Situ Shan, who ranked first in the first two exams. A little girl who is not amazing, but quiet and refreshing.

Although she doesn't have the carving of everyone's beautiful ladies, how can such a house be worthy of her as a residence?

Wei Hengyi's heart was twitching, the girl who was injured by himself yesterday was actually recuperating in such a home, and the pain of self-blame came like an elephant eroded by ten thousand ants.

Downstairs at the door of the unit, an old man squatted on the ground smoking a cigarette and muttered to himself.

It's Situ Shan's grandfather.

"Grandpa, how is Situ Shan?" Ruan Xiyue asked first.

Grandpa raised his head and swept the teenagers in front of him with a wise gaze, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

Because there were five men in front of him.

"Shan'er is very strong, I carried her to the school gate just now, and she is resting in the house now."

"Grandpa, I'm sorry!" Wei Hengyi's apology was sincere.

Grandpa stared at him for a moment, nodded in response, stood up and said, "If you want to see Shan'er, go into the house." On the second floor, let's go, grandpa will take you up. ”

Walk into the shabby, dark, moldy staircase, up the dented, slippery staircase, and up the second floor, where you see cracked, faded wooden doors.

"Shan'er! A classmate has come to see you! Grandpa said as he opened the door. The antique and elegant atmosphere comes to the face, the simple but elegant furniture, the sparse but natural light, Situ Shan's home has the connotation of poverty but elegance.

Grandpa led the five companions into Situ Shan's boudoir, and the weak, injured delicate body was propping up from the bed.

"Lie down!" Ruan Xiyue stepped forward with Chen Jiatong and carefully put down Situ Shan's body that had sat up.

"No!" Situ Shan was resisting, "It's just a little bit of a small injury to my waist, don't ......" She said halfway, her cheeks were already red. Words can be disguised, but the body is saying pain.

With the support of the two girls, she still obediently lay down, adjusted her breathing, and her face finally eased.

"Situ Shan, I'm sorry!" Wei Hengyi walked to the bed and said in a deep voice.

"You're right, no need to apologize. Blame myself for not working hard! It's the same in anyone's hands, it's all my own problem! Situ Shan lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, crying.

"I'm ......," Wei Hengyi was at a loss.

"You're great! You should be fine. If I win against you, I'll have your place. If you lose, you won't be able to go to the Sailing School. If you can't go to Qihang School, you won't be able to get out of Qicheng in the future, and you won't be able to live a paradise-like life if you don't go to the "Pure Land"! Situ Dan wiped away a handful of tears, turned his head, glared at Wei Hengyi and said, "But do you want to be so ruthless?" Wouldn't you have it fun throwing me like this? None of the teams will want me. I didn't walk out of the city to live any kind of life! I am now living frugally with my grandfather, not to go to the "Pure Land". I'm here to go out and find Mom and Dad! My mom and dad are out on business, and they've been out there for as long as I can remember! I've been looking forward to seeing Mom and Dad for years! I've been working hard for years! Just because of you! I'll never see them again! More tears fell down Situ Shan's cheeks.

Wei Hengyi's heart was aching, he didn't know what to say.

"He knew he was wrong!" Ruan Xiyue softly relieved the siege, and gently stroked Situ Shan, who was both physically and mentally created, "When we were grouped just now, the four of us wanted to add him to the group when we saw him alone, but he said that there were conditions!" He said he had to take you! ”

Hope penetrates from Situ Shan's ears and overflows from his eyes. She scanned the classmates around her with trepidation, joy and caution, there were five of them!

"What she just said, is what she just said true?" Situ Shan asked Wei Hengyi cautiously, a little uneasy and a little apprehensive.

Wei Hengyi nodded, not daring to look directly at Situ Shan's gaze.

Surprise, self-blame, shame, all kinds of feelings suddenly came to my heart. "I'm sorry! I...... I've wronged you! ”

Wei Hengyi raised his head, relieved. He was forgiven.

"But, what is the SID test? I...... The sacrum is misaligned, and it may be a ...... that drags the legs"

"Where's the sacrum?" Zhang Chengyuan interjected out of place.

"That's it...... Above the tail vertebrae, below the spine. Situ Shan said as she turned sideways and pointed to the position of her lower back.

"I'll carry you, I'll hurt you, if the SID exam requires exercise, I'll carry you the whole time!" Wei Hengyi said firmly.

Situ Shan closed her eyes and responded with tears.

"Come on, Situ Shan, I haven't introduced our team members to you yet, yesterday...... You left first, and you didn't see their wonderful performance. Ruan Xiyue stepped forward to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere and said, "Leng Changhe, Zhang Chengyuan and you and I are all classmates, so I won't talk nonsense." But I've got to introduce you to this girl, this is ......."

"Chen Jiatong" Situ Shan said his name.

The partners present were surprised.

"I usually pay attention to people who have excellent grades." Situ Shan smiled and said, "Only by knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can you ...... Increase your chances of winning. After that, he looked at Wei Hengyi and said, "Hey, but some people usually don't show the mountain and don't leak!" ”

"But I ......" Chen Jiatong couldn't believe that Situ Shan would know his name.

"Without my parents' tutoring, I was on my own in the cultural classes, so every night, I was the last one in our school to walk out of the classroom. Half a year ago, I stumbled upon a figure running alone at the end of the long-distance running team training every night. Chen Jiatong is very good at hiding his strength, and every time he waits for everyone on campus to run out, he starts to practice running. But she always left her schoolbag on the side of the road, and of course I had seen the student ID card hanging on the schoolbag! ”

More than one person felt like waking up from a dream.

"You, you, you! It's so scheming! Ruan Xiyue poked Chen Jiatong's shoulder with her hand and said with a half-smile and half-disgust.

"The praying mantis catches cicadas, I didn't expect to be seen!" Chen Jiatong smiled and stuck out his tongue and said.

"We've already signed up for the group." Zhang Chengyuan stepped forward and said, "You can rest assured that you will be able to raise it for the past two days." Whether it's intelligence or fighting, our group is very strong! ”

After a while, the partners withdrew from Situ Shan's residence and let her have a good rest.

Grandpa sent the classmates to the door of the building. Wei Hengyi walked last, turned around hesitantly, and asked, "Grandpa, Situ Shan's parents are out?" ”

"Yes!" Grandpa replied in the affirmative, with an excited and proud look on his face. "Her parents are both academics in the high school district, and the organization told them to go out to work!"

"They...... How long have you been out? Wei Hengyi still asked.

"Hey, it's been more than fifteen years!" Tears suddenly flowed on Grandpa's kind face, "They are very busy going out to work, I wonder about them!" ”

Wei Hengyi nodded, waved to his grandfather, and left.

Night.

Wei Hengyi flipped through the TV show.

I heard a noise outside the door and the sound of someone pulling out the key.

Wei Hengyi felt uncomfortable. He knew that his father must have come back drunk.

Five years ago, my mother died of cancer. But Wei Hengyi grew up strong, and he didn't fall because he had a strong father. A father whose flesh and blood can withstand the storm, always encourages himself to be optimistic and strong, and gives him a happy childhood.

I remember when I was a kid, I liked to play single-player action games with my dad. Wei Hengyi has always only liked to choose characters with long-range attacks, and when he encounters an enemy head-on, he will deftly run away and dodge. I remember when my mother just died, my father took him to play games. His father said to him, "Do you hate the sickness that killed your mother?" The **oss in the last level of the game is the disease, let's avenge our mother together, okay? Wei Hengyi, who was distracted at that time, finally found the sustenance of emotional catharsis. For the first time, the father and son joined hands to fight to the end, but unfortunately they did not pass. Wei Hengyi was so angry that he was going crazy, and he punched around. His father hugged him, looked at him and said, "Do you know why you can't beat him?" The son's tearful eyes widened as he listened to his father's answer. Because you've been dodging. Don't run away, don't be afraid of losing blood, don't be afraid of the enemy in front of you, if you go up and fight like a man, the enemy will naturally be killed. For the sake of Mom, promise Dad to be a little man, do you dare? Wei Hengyi nodded desperately with tears in his eyes. Next, Wei Hengyi chose a short-range strength hero and moved forward senselessly. This time he won. In fact, he knew that he won mainly because his father played well, but the knot of his mother's death was finally untied.

Since then, imperceptibly, Wei Hengyi has become stronger, daring to face difficulties, and optimistic. The father and son have endless words, they exercise together every day, and their father teaches him martial arts and ball, and the father and son live a special man's life. For Wei Hengyi, the loss of his mother is acceptable. Because the sky is falling, there is really a father to carry it.

But.

Three years ago.

Father fell.

Wei Hengyi's father is a professor of pharmacy, and one day three years ago, the sky fell and everything changed......
