Chapter 156: Redeem Each Other
More than ten degrees below zero, she was only wearing a sweater and a base, and she didn't feel cold. Tonight, all feelings and perceptions were taken up by Qiao Zhanbei.
Putting on the down jacket handed by the girl, Ye Mian still felt a warmth enveloping herself, she looked at the energetic girl in front of her, and said sincerely: "There will be a driver to pick me up, thank you." ”
Under the street lamp, the girl put her hands in her pockets, jumped up and down to warm up, looked at her bluntly, and said angrily: "Oh, girls help girls!" ”
Girls help each other.
Ye Mian paused, and the girl in front of her seemed to be shining all over her body, and she couldn't help but smile.
Xin said that he finally didn't get her a new green tea.
Ye Mian looked at the girl gratefully, "I don't know your name yet, I heard that you saved Qiao Zhanbei, thank you." ”
She was full of curiosity about how Qiao Zhanbei was rescued and where he went after he disappeared.
"My name is Song Qiao, call me Qiaoqiao. Actually, speaking of which, it was he who saved me......" Song Qiao said, sticking out her tongue and looking very embarrassed.
It turned out that she was an extreme sports enthusiast who had just come out of exploring a cave in a cliff with a group of friends that day, and accidentally stumbled and fell.
"At that time, he was hanging on an old tree, just a few meters from the bottom of the valley, and I fell down and knocked him down with me, and he used it as a meat pad for me, and one of my ribs was crushed, and I almost pierced my lungs."
Speaking of these, Song Qiao scratched her head embarrassedly, "He saved me, I rescued him with my teammates, we are a professional team, and there is a team doctor in the team." ”
Therefore, when they searched and rescued to the foot of the mountain, Qiao Zhanbei had already been rescued.
Ye Mian secretly thought.
"And his legs ......," she asked again.
Song Qiao: "He has a lumbar spinal cord injury, which caused paralysis of the lower half of his body, which was hit when he fell off the cliff, and his face is also the same." ”
As soon as he heard that his lower body was paralyzed, Ye Mian's heart was uncomfortably blocked.
She stabilized her emotions and asked calmly: "I have been looking for him for half a year, but there is no news, did you help him hide his whereabouts?" ”
"He asked me to do this, he saved me, I helped him hide his whereabouts, and I also reported it back and forth." Song Qiao could understand Ye Mian's feelings of finding a lover for half a year, and she was a little sorry.
Seeing her frowning lightly and embarrassed, Ye Mian pursed her lips and smiled, "You are very righteous, I also know him, if he doesn't want me to find it, there must be a way to avoid me, dog man." How has he been in the past six months, can you tell me about it? ”
Song Qiao was embarrassed, she promised Qiao Zhanbei to help him keep it secret.
She saw a big tree on the side, her eyes lit up, and she walked over, "Tree hole, tree hole, I have a lot of things I want to spit out to you, it's too uncomfortable to hold back." ”
Ye Mian pricked up his ears.
"When Qiao Zhanbei first knew that his lower body was paralyzed, he was quite active in cooperating with the treatment, and later insisted on rehabilitation, rehabilitation is very hard, he is in the rehabilitation room, like a toddler, he fell again and again, in order to be able to return to his wife and daughters as soon as possible, he is very tenacious."
After three months of rehabilitation, he still couldn't stand up except for being able to take care of himself, and the doctor also said that there was little hope, and he began to give up on himself. Every day, he locks himself in a completely dark room, smokes and drinks heavily, has a violent personality, often drops things, and relies on his wife's photos to relieve lovesickness. ”
"A few days ago, he went to his wife's hometown, Xunzhen, and lived in his wife's old house when she was a child, and was almost discovered by his wife."
"Tonight's New Year, he can't help but run out to see his wife and family again......"
"Big tree, big tree, don't tell anyone what I told you......" Song Qiao said, glancing at Ye Mian from the corner of her eye.
I saw her squatting aside, looking at the dark night sky, silently shedding tears.
Song Qiao stepped forward and handed her a pack of tissue paper.
"Thank you." Ye Mian choked.
She imagined Qiao Zhanbei's embarrassment after being injured, the pain during his recovery, the self-abandonment now, the sadness that he couldn't return to his home, the humility of wanting to love her but not having the courage to face it, thinking that his pride and self-esteem were shattered...... She was distressed.
My heart was like a pebble, and it hurt uncomfortably.
The driver came to pick her up, she said goodbye to Song Qiao and got into the car.
The next day, she told the two gray-haired old men the news that Qiao Zhanbei was still alive.
Old Chief Qiao called the guards, and the old man was furious, "Give me the gun!" ”
The guard pulled out his pistol from his holster and handed it to the old chief.
"I'm going to shoot that bunny! This little injury broke him, he is not worthy of being my Qiao Zhanrong's grandson! Old Chief Qiao took his gun and walked to the door.
Ye Mian, who had been freezing all night and still had a high cold, hurriedly stepped forward and stopped him to appease him.
Grandma Qiao wiped away her tears, "Old man, you don't know the temper of your own grandson?" Zhanbei has been growing up since childhood, and it is used to the wind and rain, and the wind and water are used to it! Even if his father passed away and the company was in crisis, he still had a healthy body and confidence in himself. Now, he doesn't have a healthy body, and he's been hit......"
"Grandma, I can understand him too. We can't force him now, give him some space, my side, will pull him up little by little. Ye Mian leaned on Grandma Qiao's shoulder, and said slowly with a heavy nasal voice.
"Mianmian, I'm sorry for you, grandma feels more sorry for you now......" Grandma Qiao's face pressed against Ye Mian's cheek and rubbed it.
Smelling the smell of Grandma Qiao's body and feeling the feeling of her warm cheeks grinding against her face, Ye Mian thought of her grandmother, and she was moved to tears.
In the past ten years, she has long regarded Grandpa Qiao and Grandma Qiao as her relatives and Qiao's family as her own home.
"Grandma, I'm not bitter, Brother Qiao is alive, I feel very lucky and content." She said with tears in her eyes, laughing.
He was her salvation, and now she wants to save him from darkness.
After Chinese New Year's Eve, five days passed, and Ye Mian never looked for Qiao Zhanbei again.
In the room, all the windows were covered by blackout curtains, and there was not a trace of light, only the cigarette between the man's fingers, which shimmered a little scarlet.
Qiao Zhanbei picked up his phone, the screen lit up, he clicked on the photo gallery, and Ye Mian's face appeared in front of him.
Looking at her appearance in the picture, his heart was conscious again.
"Knock knock—"
There was a knock on the door.
He frowned, looked in the direction of the door, and didn't squeak.
"Qiao Zhanbei, I have something to talk about with you, can you come out?"
The voice belonging to Ye Mian came from outside the door.
Qiao Zhanbei's heart trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to snuff out the cigarette, smelling the smoke and alcohol in the room, he couldn't help but get nervous.
Smoking and drinking every day, he died in front of her.
However, he remembered that he was now in a wheelchair......
