Chapter 33: Suicide note
A week later, when the delegation entered the back of the Nushan Mountains, Professor Sun suffered from altitude sickness and was taken to the hospital for treatment, where he could only lie in bed all day on oxygen.
The task ran aground, and Shi Guangyan was also recruited after him.
Of the team of three people, only Yan Ci was still strong, and after taking care of the two of them every day, he went to the rock collection area to complete the day's tasks according to Professor Sun's guidance.
"Both of them have stopped cooking, and I am both a father and a mother alone."
Shen Pingxiao was distressed.
"I'll get two days off, I'll pick it up for you."
Yan Ci shrugged his shoulders and clamped his mobile phone, and opened the car door with his free hand.
"Do you think I didn't expect it, Professor Sun refused to leave, otherwise I would have kicked the accelerator and brought them back to Seoul. I'm worried about the professor's body now, so I dare to follow him, if I get angry and react more severely, it will be even more doomed. ”
"Don't worry, I can handle it."
She carried a boxed lunch in one hand and a freshly collected sample box in the other, and sent it to Professor Sun first, and when she saw that the professor was still sleeping, she did not disturb.
When Shi Guangyan saw her coming, he immediately looked bright.
"Senior Sister Yan."
"Are you okay?"
Because of the lack of oxygen on the plateau, Shi Guangyan's face has been showing a reddish color these days, which adds a sense of immaturity to the already young boy.
"I feel a little more comfortable, or I'll go out with you tomorrow to try, and I'm sorry to let you be busy alone every day."
Yan Ci smiled generously and handed him what to eat.
"What's this?"
Shi Guangyan took it and said coldly.
"You take care of us so much every day, your boyfriend should be happy when he knows about it."
The lack of oxygen short-circuited the kid's head, and finally revealed the fox's tail, which was firmly caught by Yan Ci.
"Not happy? I take care of my sick teacher, and my peers, is there anything wrong with that? ”
Shi Guangyan lowered his head and sneered.
"Nope."
Yan Ci's gentle eyes seem to be forgiving a child who has made a mistake.
"Shi Guangyan, he's not that stingy."
"What about you, take care of your body early, and if you delay it for two days, it will really drive people crazy."
After Yan Ci finished speaking, Shi Guangyan looked at her back, lowered his head and laughed at himself.
He could vaguely feel that Yan Ci was pressing the emotions that he hadn't had time to emerge from, making him retreat from the precipice and retreat.
It was a couple that seemed to break at the touch of a button, but in fact, it was indestructible.
The young man's adaptability is stronger than that of the middle-aged man, and in two days, Shi Guangyan recovered completely, and finally shared a little of the burden on Yan Ci's shoulders.
Shi Guangyan followed Yan Ci, didn't even have a chance to show her masculine charm, and even occasionally asked her to turn around and pull her up.
"Senior Sister Yan."
She sounded awkward.
"Just call me a face."
Shi Guangyan was finally willing to admit it generously.
"I really don't have a chance?"
Yan Ci stopped and looked at him with crooked eyes.
"What do you like about me?"
Shi Guangyan thought for a moment.
"Decent, generous, natural."
The reasons he came up with were all descriptions of Yan Ci, and they were all in his eyes, the brilliance of Yan Ci.
"Did you know that I'm actually a scoundrel."
"I just kidnapped him by virtue of his scoundrel."
Shi Guangyan pondered carefully and understood what she meant, she was not a passive person, she was very thoughtful, and all the factors in the outside world were not enough to shake it.
She has a natural barrier and is immune to all one-way attacks.
His one-way emotions were of no use to her.
"Shi Guangyan, people who really like each other, you don't have to chase them, anyone who can be impressed with money, material, or other things is a condition that has taken a fancy to you, not you as a person."
is such a super-rich second generation, Yan Ci is sincerely worried that this fool will be deceived in the future.
Fortunately, Shi Guangyan could listen to it.
"Yan Ci, am I too late?"
"No, it's the wrong person."
Yan Ci carried the sample box and walked forward in a dashing manner.
Shi Guangyan muttered behind her.
"I wish you liked my money."
Yan Ci has more than a month of experience in Xia Ersili before, and now under the guidance of Professor Sun, even if there is no tutor to teach on the spot, he still completes the sampling work very well.
Late at night, she was still sorting out the samples, summarizing the photos she had taken, combining them with geomorphological features, and then putting them into the corresponding sample bags.
When it was finally all done, she yawned and stretched, and when she looked at the time, it was already half past one in the morning.
She looked at the chat records with Shen Pingxiao saying goodnight to each other, and planned to sleep in peace.
The phone rang suddenly.
The corners of her eyes sank, Shen Pingxiao shouldn't have called at this time.
"Hello?"
"Woke you up?"
"No, just getting ready for sleep."
"Why is it so late?"
"What about you, is there something wrong with calling so late?"
Shen Pingxiao paused and called her name.
"Yan Ci ......"
Again.
Yan Ci took the lead.
"It's another mission, isn't it?"
"Hmm."
"Where to go? How long? ”
"I don't know yet."
Neither of them wanted to say any more about the questions and answers that could be guessed by each other, and they listened quietly to the sound of their breathing getting longer and longer.
"Waiting for your triumph."
She was forcing herself to look at it with an optimistic attitude, but Shen Pingxiao's tone was extremely thick, which made her realize that this mission was probably more dangerous than ever.
"Shen Pingxiao, you speak, you say you will come back."
He was silent, and after a while, he said solemnly.
"Yan Ci, if I can come back safely this time, we will get married."
Yan Ci bit his lip, his eyes swelling with soreness.
"It's not if, Shen Pingxiao, don't say if."
She laughed and cried, cried and laughed.
"I'll just propose to you, you can't break your word."
Shen Pingxiao chuckled.
"Okay."
"Yan Ci, I secretly put a letter in your notebook, I hope you will never open it."
The call stopped, Yan Ci turned over and got out of bed, rummaging through her bag for the notebook that followed her all over the mountains and rivers, which recorded her lost years and all the things she hid in the corner.
She rummaged through the notebook upside down, and sure enough, she found a thin letter on the back title page, with nothing written on the yellowish case, and the seal was not glued, just folded.
When Shen Pingxiao put this thing in, she didn't know.
She wanted to see what was written inside, but she didn't want to open it.
Because she understands too well, this is not an ordinary letter, this is a suicide note left by Shen Pingxiao to her.
Yan Ci put it back untouched again, closed the notebook, and she felt that something was missing.
Photo, what about the photo taken in Colombang?
The pages rattled and she couldn't find it, even though she poured out everything in the package.
Shen Pingxiao took it away.
He didn't want Yan Ci to see that.
The notebook was smashed on the futon, and Yan Ci took things to make a mess.
"Shen Pingxiao, why are you changing my things!"
She crouched down with her face covered, hugged herself on her knees, and buried her face in the crook of her arm.
All night, the lights in the room were never extinguished, Yan Ci couldn't sleep no matter what, and seeing the sky gradually white, she was still awake like a fish in her throat.
In this state, she couldn't do anything, she thought about it, and sent a text message to Shi Guangyan, telling him that she was going to be absent today, and she didn't bother to make up the reason.
After arranging, she caught a glimpse of a uniquely shaped wine bag next to the sample box, which was given to them by the enthusiastic Tibetans who had settled in the village tenants when they first went to the mountains for investigation.
Maybe wine will help her get a good night's sleep.
Yan Ci has a bit of a lot of alcohol for himself, and he knows that he can't drink too much, so this method must work, but he doesn't know how powerful this home-brewed barley wine is.
She threw her head up like water, and gradually the feeling of drowsiness on her head made her breathe a sigh of relief, so that she could always sleep, sleep well, and continue to concentrate on her own business as if nothing had happened.
Alcohol blinds the brain, stimulates the throat and stomach, and the weakness of not being able to breathe does come as promised, and violent gastrointestinal reactions also follow.
Before she could sleep, she had to drag her dizzy and heavy body and run over to vomit.
Handfuls of cold water poured on her face, the cold aroused her brain to be clearer, and she propped her hands on both sides of the sink counter, constantly making "hehe" laughter.
If you really don't have enough brains, how can you still think of drinking to force yourself to sleep.
She was so slow that she rinsed her mouth and washed her face, cleaned herself up, and the feeling on her head was about to break off, and with the last shred of reason, she came out of the bathroom with the door frame.
The pace is getting dragging and the breathing is getting heavier.
She heard the sound of herself slamming on the floor, and she was finally relieved.
Xu is days of rest and recuperation, recuperating enough, Shi Guangyan woke up earlier than usual this morning, and after receiving Yan Ci's text message, he felt that the situation was not right, it was abnormal.
Put on your clothes and go to find someone, knock on the door, but also strengthen your judgment, find the hotel management to force the door open.
"Yan Ci!"
Seeing this scene, Shi Guangyan rushed over and didn't care about morality, so he hugged the person on his knees.
The hotel manager who came with him hurriedly said, "I called an ambulance." ”
He smelled the faint smell of wine coming from Yan Ci's body, and saw the barley wine that had been passed on the side, and thought it was drunk, but the heartbeat coming from his hand was so heavy that it almost looked like he was slapping a ball, and his breathing was also rapid and irregular, with obvious abnormal rhythms.
This is a manifestation of an arrhythmia.
He immediately judged that the face of falling to the ground and not waking up was not a simple drunkenness at all, but due to vomiting, palpitation and other stimuli, catalyzed by alcohol, it gradually triggered a strong altitude sickness, and if it was not treated in time, it would develop into a series of more serious diseases such as myocardial hypoxia, pulmonary edema, and cerebral edema.
The nearest hospital was ten kilometers away, so Shi Guangyan picked her up and walked out.
"Can't wait, I'll take her to the hospital."
And Shen Pingxiao, who was boarding the transport plane at this moment, closed his eyes and rested, not knowing everything that happened here, but he suddenly felt a pinprick in his heart.
