Chapter 98 Another Farewell
It was already past eight o'clock in the morning. It was cloudy. Although it was not as bright as the sun was shining, it could still be clearly distinguished through the windows in Feiming's small room. It was already dawn. Han Shu was standing at her bedside now, but she didn't speak.
Ju Nian fell into a cold cellar. She hugged Fei Ming without saying a word, but just quietly clenched her trembling lips with her teeth.
During the time when it was only one or two hours before dawn, Han Shu had a confused dream. He even dreamed of a police car with a long siren sounding at the campus gate. He was arrested by the righteous police officers. The surroundings were filled with people watching the fun. Everyone pointed at him contemptuously, and the whispering was nothing more than his vulgarity and shamelessness. Someone fainted on the spot. It was his mother Sun Jinling, and Dean Han's eyes were red. If someone hadn't stopped him desperately, he would have rushed up on the spot and tear him apart the rebellious son who completely wiped out the old Han's house. Han Shu turned around frequently in the push of countless people, but he could not see Ju Nian, not even a back. He was both lost and melancholy. Although he knew that it was not unfair to fall to this point, if she could be present, even if she gave a very pleasing expression, he felt that he deserved to be at ease.
It was not until the early morning light disturbed his mental journey to imprisonment that Han Shu opened his eyes and took one tenth of a second to revive the memory. He immediately jumped up. Unfortunately, he was still one step late. His posture was barely hanging on the edge of the bed. This jumping posture made him roll and crawl to the ground. Fortunately, he was wrapped in the quilt and didn't hurt. The old wooden rack bed that he didn't see clearly last night was empty.
Although Han Shu has always advocated natural awakening, his biological clock is very accurate and he is not a sleeping sleeper. On the other hand, although Xie Juinian has not had any experience with her, according to his follow-up observation for a long time, as long as he does not work in the morning and there is no special thing, she usually sleeps until the sun is noon before going to the sun to get milk. This time he fell behind her again and felt extremely passive. Thinking of last night, his face became hot, so he quickly put on his clothes, tidied up the bed sheets and quilts, and walked out with a bit of the bullet.
Fei Ming had not got up yet, and the broken bell in the hall also confirmed that it was still early. Han Shu looked at the entrance of the courtyard with a ulterior motive, and there was no police car or law enforcement officer in his dream. Then he heard the sound of the door "creaking", and the victim opened the door from the steam-steamed bathroom with wet hair, holding a basin of clothes in his hand.
Han Shu was a little embarrassed, so he coughed a few times again, trying to attract Ju Nian's attention. Ju Nian ignored him, put down the clothes in the basin, found a dry towel to wipe the water from his hair, Han Shu aggravated the cough again, and the result was the same. He finally confirmed that she was deliberately not going to pay attention to him, even if he coughed, it would be in vain. He was in a loss of confidence. Thinking of the embarrassment last night, it was needless to say, it was a serious sin, but death was a life, and she wanted to kill and cut. At least she would give me a message.
So Han Shuqiqi walked behind Ju Nian with a vague affair, hesitated for a while, and said in a daze, "Look... what should I do?"
He saw Ju Nian's hand wiping his hair stop, and did not look back at him. It was just a time to take a breath, and Han Shu felt that he was almost suffocating.
"You go, don't come in the future." There was no obvious emotional ups and downs in Ju Nian's voice.
Oh... she planned to let this happen, as if it didn't happen. It seemed that he had escaped shamelessly again. Han Shu couldn't tell whether he was relieved or disappointed. He thought a little bitch, he was so bastard, and there was no reason to just let it go. How could she end it in one sentence? It was also blamed himself. Last night, before that incident happened, everything was so perfect and perfect, and he could even feel that he was close to her. Who knew that later the evil spirit made a fuss, and everything was ruined. Her attitude was already kind. Even if he was shameless, he had no reason to stay away.
"Can I wash my face before leaving?" Han Shu can only say that now.
Without saying anything, Ju Nian went to take out his toiletries and walked to the faucet of the patio dejectedly. As soon as he slowly squeezed out a toothpaste of perfect shape on his toothbrush, he heard the sound of calling out from outside the yard.
"Ji Nian, are you at home?"
Who else can this voice be besides Tang Ye?
Of course, Ju Nian also heard it. She straightened her body and subconsciously closed her half-dry hair, looking a little at a loss.
The knock on the door continued, and Ju Nian didn't move.
Han Shu guessed that she must have pretended to be away with her ears and pretended to be away, so she said kindly: "Do you use me to open the door?"
This sentence really worked. Ju Nian immediately turned around and dragged him down, with a suspicious color on his face.
"Don't move."
She put down the towel for wiping her hair and responded quickly to the door.
It was indeed Tang Ye. He was wearing the clothes he wore yesterday, and the green hawthorn on his chin showed off. It seemed that he was guarding the bedside of Prosecutor Cai until now. He was haggard, but his eyes were still extremely clear.
Ju Nian opened the door, but the man stood at the door, reached out to slash his hair in his ears, and asked, "Good morning, are you here?"
Tang Ye nodded and smiled, "Happy New Year."
Yes, this is the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. The Orange Year woke up like a dream and replied: "Happy New Year."
She did not let Tang Ye go out of the door and asked him to come in. She didn't know why he left the stepmother who needed care to come to her early in the morning, so she quietly waited for what he wanted to say next.
Tang Ye did not say his purpose directly. He looked at Ju Nian with a thoughtful look and suddenly asked, "Ji Nian, is something happened?"
Ju Nian rushed her hair again in a hurry, and the half-dry ends made people feel upset. She remembered it, no wonder he felt something was wrong. According to local customs, there was no reason to wash his hair on the first morning of the New Year.
Just at this moment, she heard someone coming out of the house.
"Hey, that... I can't find a cup for brushing my teeth."
Ju Nian almost turned around immediately. It was not because she was so eager to see Han Shu, but because she didn't want to see Tang Ye's expression at this moment.
Han Shu stood under the eaves of the corridor with an innocent look on her face, her hair was a little messy, and she almost said the words "I just got up" on her forehead.
As if to deal with Ju Nian's criticism that he had not yet spoken, he said helplessly: "I declare that I did not interrupt you on purpose. If you forgot my car, you parked at the door. How could he not know?"
After he finished speaking the reason, the next thing he said to Tang Ye, "Is my godmother a little better?"
Ju Nian turned around, Tang Ye's expression was much calmer than she thought, and it could even be said to be calm and a little tired. Perhaps it was just the result of guarding the patient all night. He answered Han Shu's question politely.
"It's still like that, there's no life danger, but it's impossible to recover like a normal person in a while. Thank you for your concern."
"She is my godmother too, why do you thank me? I will go to see her later." Han Shu said, pointing to the room and said naturally, "Why come in and sit and chat?"
He responded to Tang Ye's equal politeness, as if the conflicts at work and the embarrassment in front of him did not exist for the time being. However, not only Tang Ye, even Ju Nian suddenly felt that when he spoke, it seemed that he was the owner of the house.
"No need, I'll leave after saying a few words." Tang Ye said without hesitation for a moment.
Ju Nian turned her body and said, "Please come in, it's cold outside."
This scene, this scene, cannot be described as strange, as if everything is misplaced.
The firecrackers at Uncle Cai’s house sounded. This is a traditional custom. The first thing to do when you wake up in the New Year is to open the door and set off firecrackers, which means "a good start". Han Shu seemed to suddenly remember something and slapped his head and asked Ju Nian: "You didn’t buy firecrackers, you still need this omen. Let’s set off firecrackers to get rid of the bad luck of the old year. Otherwise, I’ll buy it at Uncle Cai’s house now."
As he said that, he turned around and put his toothbrush, and then walked towards Uncle Cai's house in three steps. No one objected to this, and perhaps everyone present was relieved of his temporary departure.
Han Shu walked away, and Tang Ye and Ju Nian were left at the door.
"I missed the appointment yesterday, I was so embarrassed." Tang Ye said while standing there.
Ju Nian thought about explaining it. She wanted to tell Tang Ye that Han Shu was driven out of her family, so she took him in to spend the night here. This was the truth, but if you said it, it would be a suspicion of overshadowing it. Since you can't explain it clearly, it would be better not to say it.
"Don't say that, your business is more important." She lowered her head, her half-dry hair drooped, making her face look so small that she felt pitiful.
He had no intention of coming in, and the two people who didn't talk much were silent at the door. Finally, they spoke, but they collided again. They spoke almost at the same time and said the following words.
"He is still good to you."
"How are you now?"
Then they seemed to have not heard each other's words, and they were all stunned.
Tang Ye laughed first, and he made a relieved expression, "I just want to come and see if you are good, so I'll go back to the hospital now."
Ju Nian did not force her to stay and smiled slightly, "Take care."
Han Shu quickly bought firecrackers from Uncle Cai’s store. From where they were standing, he could watch him and Uncle Cai’s smile and wave and then turn back.
"Ji Nian, it seems that I can't escape this time. Sorry, the 'if' I thought was only a 'if', although I really want it, really, I have been doing unrealistic things for half my life." Tang Yeshang suddenly took a step forward, and he said so urgently, as if after the moment, there was no more time, and he and her would no longer have time.
At the moment of speaking, Ju Nian realized that Tang Ye had stuffed a book he had been holding into her hand. It was a paperback version of "Journey to the West". Ju Nian opened it when she first came to Tang Ye's family. They had a small competition for this book.
The book is very old, but it is Tang Ye’s favorite and often read.
"You keep this," he said.
Ju Nian's sensitivity in her bones made her instinctively flip through the book when she took it. She easily opened one of the pages with a bank card inside.
"this……"
Han Shu got closer and closer, Tang Ye pushed Ju Nian's hand without any doubt, and interrupted her rejection that she had not been able to say. "There is not much money, but every penny is clean. I used to have a friend, but fortunately I kept it. On the charge I was guilty of being punished, I am afraid that it would not be enough to repay the money. I don't know that I can't afford it in my lifetime. My aunt has no problem with her life, so I will divide the money into two parts, one for my aunt and one for you. If you keep it, it will always be useful."
He said it sincerely, as if he had already thought of all the reasons for her to refuse.
"This is not a gift, Ju Nian. If you treat me as a friend, don't say anything...I just can't rest assured of you."
Tang Ye was still faint when he said this, neither worried nor troubled, as if he was just waiting for the ending he knew. But this thoughtless entrustment made Ju Nian feel sad from his heart.
She actually thought about entrusting her life to him. If she had to have a entrusted life, she might not love her deeply enough, but she was warm enough, and they understood and understood each other, which was enough to support each other until they were old.
I didn't expect that even a "if" might not be true would break so quickly.
Ju Nian knew all the things in prison too well and couldn't help but worry about Tang Ye even more.
As if to dissolve the invisible sorrow, Tang Ye laughed mockingly, "When I first came, I saw Han Shu's car, I was really stupid, but I thought again, this is not a bad thing."
"What good and bad things?" Han Shu heard some words even though he was still a few meters away.
Tang Ye smiled at him, "I'll leave first."
"Don't talk for a while?" Han Shu continued to act like a fool, and also saw an extra book in Ju Nian's hand and asked, "Hey, what are you holding?"
Tang Ye explained: "A book I brought over."
"I'm just giving this book during the New Year? It's not a precious lonely book, right?" Han Shu said half-true.
Tang Ye also knew that he had no right to deal with all his property now.
At this time, Ju Nian handed the book to Han Shu with expressionless expression and teased, "Will you confiscate it?"
Han Shu did not dare to pick her up, and replied to her: "I saw nothing."
Tang Ye said to Han Shu: "I have a heartless request. If the books in my house are of no value, instead of becoming waste paper at that time, I think it would be better to give them all to Ju Nian, please."
Han Shu was stunned for a moment before saying, "It's too early to say anything before the verdict."
Tang Ye was not entangled with this issue and said to Ju Nian: "I am really leaving, I'll say hello to Xiang Feiming on my behalf." After that, he turned around and left.
Han Shu held firecrackers and looked at Ju Nian who was silent with an old book, and said, "I didn't drive him away." He seemed to have forgotten that he was actually the one who was about to be driven away.
"Do you want to call Fei Ming to watch me set off firecrackers?" Han Shu was afraid that the fuse would be damp, so he found a place where firecrackers could be hung throughout the yard.
Ju Nian also planned to see how Fei Ming was. When she got up, she went to her room to see it once. The child was sleeping very well.
When she walked under the eaves of the corridor, she heard the crisp sound of something breaking on the floor at the same time as Han Shu.
The sound came from Fei Ming's room!
Han Shu almost immediately threw away the firecrackers and ran to Fei Ming's room with Ju Nian.
Fei Ming lay on the bed in a strange posture, and the glass lamp on her bedside table fell to the ground and broke.
Ju Nian picked up Fei Ming without hesitation, and carefully, she was so scared, as if she was afraid that Fei Ming would be like glass, and would break if she was not careful.
Fei Ming's face was very red, and he opened his eyes blankly, "Aunt, my head hurts a little."
"It's okay, it's okay, let's go to the hospital right away." Ju Nian looked at Han Shu with a begging look, and she began to be glad that Han Shu had not left yet.
Fei Ming shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt a lot. Let's go when dawn. Is Uncle Han Shu leaving?"
She just said these words very normally, and she didn't realize the immediate pale face of the two adults.
It was past eight o'clock in the morning. It was cloudy. Although it was not sunny, it could be clearly distinguished through the windows in Feiming's small room. It was already dawn. Han Shu was standing at her bedside now, but she didn't speak.
Ju Nian fell into a cold cellar. She hugged Fei Ming without saying a word, but just quietly clenched her trembling lips with her teeth.
Han Shu slowly stretched out his hand and shook up and down in front of Fei Ming's eyes, which had no focal distance.
"Aunt, did Uncle Han Shu leave last night? He said he had no place to go." Fei Ming said with some difficulty.
Ju Nian closed her eyes sadly, and Han Shu's hand drooped down dejectedly.
