half thorns, half joy

When Xiao Zihan arrived at the hospital, Tang Xuan just went out to buy dinner and walked to the ward with it.

"Have you eaten?" Xiao Zihan walked up to Tang Xuan, took the lunch box from Tang Xuan's hand, and asked.

Tang Xuan shook her head and sighed, "I haven't eaten, I don't have much appetite."

When Xiao Zihan heard the words, he immediately said, "It happens that I haven't eaten either, so let's bring the dinner up for them, and then go out to eat together."

"Go out to eat?" Tang Xuan thought for a while, "That's fine, the hospital is too stuffy, so go out and get some air."

Entering the ward, the nurse was measuring Huang Tingting's temperature and blood pressure. Tang Xuan handed the lunch box to Huang's mother and stood by to watch for a while.

After the nurse finished measuring, Huang Tingting wrapped herself in the quilt again, as if unwilling to communicate with anyone.

Tang Xuan was worried that she did this because she saw Xiao Zihan was there, so she lowered her voice and gave Mother Huang a few instructions before taking Xiao Zihan away in a hurry.

Xiao Zihan didn't feel the slightest bit about this.

He didn't pay much attention to Huang Tingting's emotions at all. Standing in the ward, his thoughts had already flown to the street outside.

Smelling the unique smell of disinfectant in the hospital, all he could think about was what to take Tang Xuan to eat later.

After leaving the ward and the inpatient department, Xiao Zihan immediately said to Tang Xuan, "Why don't I take you to eat crayfish."

"Are there any crayfish sellers around here?" Tang Xuan couldn't help asking.

Indeed, the hospital is in the suburbs, and there are not many places to eat, let alone crayfish.

But for Xiao Zihan, this is not a problem at all.

"There are some for sale in the city, let's drive there." He took Tang Xuan to the parking lot without waiting for Tang Xuan's rebuttal, and opened the door to get in the car.

Tang Xuan's heart was in a mess. Although she didn't have much appetite, seeing Xiao Zihan's high spirits, she had no choice but to follow her into the car.

Xiao Zihan turned the steering wheel and turned on the car music by the way.

Li Zongsheng's vicissitudes of voice flowed out, instantly attracting Tang Xuan's attention.

Tang Xuan quietly listened to Li Zongsheng finish singing "Song for Myself", then turned to Xiao Zihan and said, "I didn't expect you to start listening to Li Zongsheng recently."

"Just listen to it." Xiao Zihan smiled.

He has always been more casual in this respect, he doesn't deliberately pursue any style or taste, he listens to it if he likes it, and doesn't listen to it if he doesn't like it, full-screen personal preference.

Tang Xuan already knew this, but what she didn't say was that she liked Li Zongsheng very much, and had liked him for many years.

Li Zongsheng's songs can calm her restless mood instantly and give her the power of tranquility.

Xiao Zihan chose to play Li Zongsheng's song for her at this time. Whether she knew she liked Li Zongsheng or it was just a coincidence, it made her very happy.

About half an hour later, Xiao Zihan's car stopped in front of a crayfish shop.

Tang Xuan got out of the car, looked around, and took a deep breath.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Zihan parked the car, walked over and saw Tang Xuan gasping for air, so he asked curiously.

Tang Xuan scanned the buildings around the Lobster Shop with her fingers, and finally landed on the sign of the Lobster Shop, showing some doubts, "Have we been to this shop before? When we just graduated from university, we lived outside, you I often take me here to eat."

Xiao Zihan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It seems that your memory is not bad, I thought you forgot."

"I'm not old yet, and it hasn't been a few years. How can I forget it?" Tang Xuan took Xiao Zihan's arm, and the two walked into the store side by side. "It's just that the surrounding buildings have changed. For a while, I wondered I just can't get up."

After entering the crayfish shop, Tang Xuan suddenly discovered that the waiter who came to receive them was actually the same person.

A few years have passed, and the woman's hairstyle and appearance have not changed at all, except for a few more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and her darker skin, everything else is almost exactly the same as it was a few years ago.

"Two?" the woman asked with a smile.

Xiao Zihan nodded, "I want a box."

"Okay, please come inside."

Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan went into the private room and sat down. Xiao Zihan ordered two servings of garlic lobster and one serving of shrimp tail, and another serving of noodles.

The waiter went out with the menu. Tang Xuan touched the familiar tablecloth and sighed heavily.

"Unexpectedly, nothing has changed in this store." Her tone was a little incredulous, with a little emotion, "Although the buildings outside have changed, nothing in this store has changed, not even the waiters."

Xiao Zihan reached out and took Tang Xuan's hand.

In fact, he came here to eat crayfish on a whim, but sitting here and looking at the same decoration as before, he also had some feelings.

"Yes, this shows that some things will not change." He continued Tang Xuan's words, "No matter how the outside world changes, some things will not change."

Tang Xuan squeezed Xiao Zihan's hand tightly, "Yes, such as this store."

"Like... us."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then the smile turned into a big laugh.

Tang Xuan laughed so happily that tears even overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

"Ah... I didn't expect that eating a crayfish would make us feel so much." Tang Xuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sniffed.

Xiao Zihan didn't say anything, he just squeezed Tang Xuan's palm.

After a while, the lobster and noodles they ordered were brought out by the waiter.Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan put on plastic gloves and started eating.

Eating crayfish is a very refreshing thing. Peeling the shrimp shell and sucking the spicy sauce can make people devote themselves to it and forget all their troubles.

After eating, Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan ate with relish for nearly an hour.When the battle was over, Tang Xuan was almost unable to stand up.

"I'm stuffed again." Tang Xuan slumped on the chair, smiling helplessly and bitterly, "I remember when we came, every time I was stuffed, there was no exception."

Xiao Zihan was also very full, but not as exaggerated as Tang Xuan. He took off his gloves, wiped his hands with a hot towel, and called the waiter to pay the bill.

"Do you want to sit down and rest for a while?" Xiao Zihan asked Tang Xuan after paying the bill.

Tang Xuan shook her head, supported the table and stood up, "If you want to rest, you have to go out to rest, let alone rest here, the smell makes me want to eat again."

"Let's go, let's go for a walk outside."

After paying the bill and leaving the crayfish shop, Tang Xuan put her hands on her hips and let out a long sigh.

Obviously what happened to Huang Tingting happened only a day or two ago, but she felt that she had been tired for a long time.

Xiao Zihan held Tang Xuan's hand, and the two of them walked comfortably on the spacious and quiet sidewalk, blowing the cool evening breeze.

At this time, there were not many vehicles coming and going, and the lights of the residential buildings on both sides of the street were turned on. It was dinner time for every household.

The city also seems to have become warmer.

Xiao Zihan saw that the atmosphere was very good, so he said to Tang Xuan, "When I came out today, Baby Yuebai kept asking me about you, saying that he missed you very much and wanted to see you. I thought it would be inconvenient today, so I promised him that tomorrow Bring him to see you."

Hearing what Xiao Zihan said, Tang Xuan felt guilty.

She paid too much attention to Huang Tingting's affairs, and didn't even pay attention to the needs of her two children. It was her dereliction of duty as a mother.

"Okay, bring them over tomorrow and I'll cook for them," Tang Xuan said with guilt.

As soon as Tang Xuan finished speaking, she remembered the bathtub where Huang Tingting committed suicide in the villa, and couldn't help feeling a pimple on her back.

Although no one was killed in the end and Huang Tingting was one of her own, she felt very uncomfortable when she thought of such a bathtub of red water.

She didn't even want her two children to go to that house.

"Why don't I cook for the children after I change my place of residence." Tang Xuan hesitated for a long time before saying, "Tomorrow, I'll find a cake shop or something, and I'll just meet the children."

Of course Xiao Zihan knew why Tang Xuan said that. What he was waiting for was Tang Xuan's words. After hearing Tang Xuan's words, he answered casually, "Why don't you come home. If you stay outside like this, the children will feel more troubled." Thinking about it. Especially, our Yuebai is a clever little ghost."

Tang Xuan was about to agree, but after thinking about Zhao Suizhi, she fell silent again.

Until she finished walking with Xiao Zihan and returned to the car, she didn't answer Xiao Zihan's suggestion directly.

Of course, Xiao Zihan didn't ask any more.

After getting in the car, Xiao Zihan started the car, turned the steering wheel to get out of the parking lot, and asked Tang Xuan, "Should I go back to the hospital?"

"Yes." Tang Xuan nodded, "I'll settle them down when I go back, otherwise I won't be at ease leaving Tingting's parents in this unfamiliar place."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Tang Xuan leaned on the back of the co-pilot's seat, her eyelids sank slightly, as if she was already sleepy.

After tossing all night and day, she was really tired.

She originally wanted to take a nap in the car, but for no reason, her mind was confused, her heart was beating fast, and she always felt uneasy.

After arriving at the hospital in a daze, Xiao Zihan parked the car and got out of the car with Tang Xuan.

Originally, at this time, the hospital would be quiet, and the number of patients and family members coming and going would be much less than during the day.

But today was an exception. There were dozens of people standing downstairs in the inpatient department, chattering, not knowing what they were talking about.

In addition, there is a police car parked in the aisle next to the inpatient department.

"What... what's going on here? Is something wrong..." Tang Xuan grabbed Xiao Zihan's hand anxiously and tightened it.
