Chapter 23: I make a wish to the stars, and the moon answers my prayers
The big truck seemed to be frozen in front of Qingyu at this time, and Qingyu's speed seemed to slow down, and everything around it seemed to be pressed the pause button.
Qingyu thought he couldn't move at first, but soon he realized that he could, but his speed seemed to be cut in half.
"What the hell is going on? Time stands still? If that's the case, then why am I still moving? Could it be ...... Bullet time? ”
Qingyu suddenly had a bold idea, and he ran to the side of the big truck (roaming might be a bit more accurate, as he was now struggling to run back).
Then Qingyu stared at the big truck in front of him, and for some reason, he suddenly had a feeling.
Then Qingyu rushed towards the truck, but unbelievably, he actually got into the truck!
The moment Qingyu entered, he saw the goods in the truck, and the driver who was motionless and tightly grasping the steering wheel.
However, it takes less than two seconds to get in (the whole thing is in slow motion). Suddenly, as if there was an acceleration, the inertia carried the rain directly through it.
Then it returned to its normal state of time, and Qingyu heard the shrill sound of a horn.
He quickly turned around and saw that the big truck suddenly braked and stopped about a hundred meters in front.
Soon the driver of the car jumped out of his seat, and he was talking to the phone.
"Hello? Is it 120? I think I just bumped into ...... Lying on the grass! ”
"Hello? What's the situation on your side now? Please let me know the location. ”
"You wait a minute."
After saying that, the driver hurriedly ran to the front of the car to see the situation, but strangely, he did not find anyone there, including bloodstains.
The driver's expression looked very frightened, and he hurried to the bottom of the car to look.
It was a long time before the driver stood up, and he looked back at where he had just driven.
At this time, the driver looked like he had seen a ghost, and he picked up the phone again and said:
"I ...... I think I might have run into a ghost......"
"What? Could you please tell me the exact location......"
The driver hung up the phone before he could finish speaking, and then he took a deep breath.
"Calm Liu Chang, calm down ......"
With that, he took out a cigarette and lit it, and after taking a puff, the driver returned to the car.
"What the, it's the first time I've encountered a supernatural event when I come out to deliver a delivery." With that, he took another drag on his cigarette.
At this time, Qingyu also remained invisible, and he did not return to his original form until he crossed the road and moved away from the car.
"What the hell was going on just now? Is it a blessing from heaven or a superpower? If it's a superpower, then the number of times this is obtained is a bit too frequent, right? Qingyu thought and walked.
"It was so exciting, I almost crashed the car. It's still such a big truck, I can't imagine what would have happened to me if I had been hit by that car. Qingyu also suddenly felt a cold sweat break out behind him.
When I got home, before Qingyu could sit down, the phone rang.
The caller ID is Dad, Qingyu sighed and then picked up the phone.
"Hello? What's wrong Dad? ”
"Your sister will come back today, and we will go to dinner together in the evening."
"What? My sister is coming back? Isn't she in the United States? “
Qingyu was surprised, how could her cousin come back suddenly, and she didn't even say hello?
"She was on the plane yesterday, but she only arrived today, and she came back this time because of business."
"Got it, is there anything else?"
"I can't get out of the company now, you help me call in advance to reserve a place in the restaurant for tonight, we will eat there in the evening, and remember to let Brother Jiang pick up your sister at the airport in the afternoon, she will arrive at about half past three in the afternoon."
"Okay, I see."
Qingyu sighed again after hanging up the phone.
When Qingyu was young, he often played with his cousin, and the two of them can be said to be childhood sweethearts.
Because my cousin's parents were in the United States at that time, but my cousin's parents wanted her to stay in China and go to the United States to develop when she grew up.
So my cousin, who was still young at the time, stayed in China and lived with herself and her parents.
But the good times didn't last as long as Qingyu imagined, my cousin later went to the United States, and later developed in the United States after being admitted to university there, but now she suddenly said that she wanted to come back, which was undoubtedly too sudden for Qingyu.
Now that I think about it, the two should have not seen each other for many years, and since my cousin went to the United States, the two have hardly had any contact.
At first, my cousin would make a few phone calls to report her safety, but after a long time and the time difference, even the phone calls became scarce.
At that time, Qingyu was still waiting by the phone every night, waiting for her cousin to call.
"Xiaoyu, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Qingyu seemed to have returned to the past, and that familiar voice echoed in his ears again.
"Mom? Mother! Is that you? Qingyu exclaimed excitedly.
But he found that he seemed to be much smaller, and even his voice changed back to that of a child.
"What's wrong Xiaoyu?"
"Why didn't my sister call yet?"
"Your sister, she's on the other side of the earth, have you seen the twinkles and shinings in the sky? Whenever you have someone you miss, you can make a wish to them and let them communicate your wishes to the moon, and then one day you will meet the person you think about day and night. ”
"Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle, I hope I can meet my sister soon, please convey my wish to the Moon Princess." Qingyu closed her eyes and prayed innocently.
"Mom, did I make a wish?"
"If you look carefully in the sky, if a meteor is crossed, it means that the Moon Princess has heard your wish."
At this time, a meteor also happened to pass through the sky, breaking the silence.
…………
After reminiscing about the past, Qingyu got up and walked to the side of the cabinet, opened one of the drawers, and took out one of the necklaces that had been stored for a long time.
The shape on that necklace is a crescent moon, and the material is made of silver.
"Qingyu, look at the moon princess in the sky, how beautiful it is!"
"yes, it's pretty."
"Qingyu, my sister has something she wants to give you." With that, she removed the necklace she had been wearing from her neck.
"It was given to me by my mom and she said it would bring me good luck. If you miss your sister one day, take it with you and make a wish to the moon. ”
"But sister, you won't leave, why do you give this to me? You're not going to go, are you? ”
"Of course I'm not leaving, just take it, it will bring you good luck."
After saying that, the two of them continued to sit on the balcony and look outside, when a meteor just crossed the sky, leaving a perfect trace, adding another color to the night.
…………
Qingyu put the necklace full of memories back in its place and locked it in the drawer along with her past memories.
"It seems that the wish I made to the stars back then was finally answered by the moon." After Qingyu finished speaking, he walked out of the room.
