lingering sound late

Chapter 10 Kiss

After leaving the airport, Xiang Wan returned home with her parents.Along the way, none of the three people in the car spoke. Xiang Wan's parents had serious expressions on their faces. Xiang Wan only knew that he didn't have to leave. His parents understood him, but he was faintly worried about what would happen next.Last night, Yu Sheng was still asking Xiang Wan when he was leaving. Looking at the stars outside the window, Xiang Wan remembered the night when he met Yu Sheng a few days ago.That night, he saw that the stars in Yu Sheng's eyes were blurred.Xiang Wan couldn't sleep all night, and in the end, his emotions overcame his reason, and he decided to express his firm attitude to his parents to seek understanding.Even if his parents couldn't understand, Xiang Wan planned to sneak back by himself.Fortunately, my words were forgiven by my parents.But looking at the heavy expression on the lord's face, Xiang Wan worried that he had made a difficult choice for them.

When they got home, Xiang Wan's parents called Uncle Zhong to start packing Xiang Wan's things in a hurry. After a while, they unpacked three large suitcases.Seeing that Xiang Wan still stayed, Uncle Zhong couldn't help feeling sad while being happy.

"Uncle Zhong, let's do as we agreed before." Xiang Wan's father looked at Uncle Zhong and nodded affirmatively.

"Yes." Uncle Zhong took the three suitcases, with tears in his eyes and a trembling voice, he turned around and said to Xiang Wan, "Xiao Wan, let's go with Uncle Zhong."

Xiang Wan didn't understand why she couldn't stay at home anymore.Just looking at the current situation, I can only obey.He took two suitcases from Uncle Zhong and said, "Uncle Zhong, I'll take two by myself. You can carry one for me." Then, he silently followed Uncle Zhong to the gate.Xiang Wan looked back at his parents as he walked, and found that they waved at him and said, "Go, follow your Uncle Zhong."

The gate opened, and a bunch of policemen came outside.

"Captain, this is..." A little policeman said, as if he wanted to stop Xiang Wan and Uncle Zhong.

The captain raised his hand as a signal, walked over to Xiang Wan and said, "You are Xiang Wan, right?"

"Yes, what's the matter?" Xiang Wan looked at the policemen in front of him, feeling a little flustered in his heart, and at the same time he probably knew what happened in his heart.

The captain didn't exchange pleasantries, but just patted Xiang Wan on the shoulder and said, "Hurry up, both of you."

Uncle Zhong led Xiang Wan into the taxi that had already been hailed.In the car, Xiang Wan watched the police walk into his home after he got in the car.He didn't see the scene after that.Xiang Wan remembered the captain's uncle's voice. He had heard it on his father's cell phone when Xiang Wan's father was on the phone.

Uncle Zhong looked at Xiang Wan who was sitting beside him. He didn't say a word, but just lowered his head.He didn't say anything, and Xiang Wan probably understood what happened just now.After getting out of the car, Xiang Wan found out that this was a community, near Yushi No. [-] Middle School.Uncle Zhong took Xiang Wan upstairs to the place where Xiang Wan lives now.As soon as the door was opened, I found that the inside had already been tidied up.Although the space was not large, it was enough for Xiang Wan to live alone.Xiang Wan put the suitcase aside, planning to have a good chat with Uncle Zhong.He knew in his heart that it might be difficult for him to see his parents in the future, but he wanted to know what was going on.So when he was sad, he used his reason to calm himself down.

"You child, I always thought you would cry and fuss. Fortunately, at least nothing happened." Uncle Zhong pulled Xiang Wan to sit down with him, his eyes wet.

Xiang Wan controlled her agitation, and asked as calmly as possible: "Uncle Zhong, I've grown up. Just now in front of my parents, I knew I couldn't mess around, so I obeyed. But, I don't understand, Why did the police come to the house?"

Uncle Zhong sighed, and his voice trembled: "It's all due to that bastard Chen Zhiguo!"

"Uncle Chen?" Xiang Wan was a little surprised. Isn't Uncle Chen a good brother of Dad?The two still have business contacts.

"Yes, that's him." Uncle Zhong said, "You should know some rules in the business field. Before, your father and Chen Zhiguo had a cooperation project and needed to establish a relationship. In the end, I didn't expect to be sold by others. The matter was exposed, that's why he was arrested. It's just that Chen Zhiguo put all the responsibility on your father in order to protect himself. If you want me to say, this kind of brother really doesn't matter."

Uncle Zhong was a little emotional, but fortunately, Xiang Wan knew Uncle Chen. According to his own judgment, Uncle Chen would not be such a ruthless person.When I was young, Uncle Chen came to my house, and my father told me about how they supported each other and started a business together, Xiang Wan thought.Maybe things are far from as simple as Uncle Zhong said, after all, there are some things that Xiang Wan's father would not tell him.It seems that if there is a chance in the future, he will have to learn more information from Uncle Chen. He thought, it's just that this sensitive period is probably inconvenient, and it will take a while.

"Uncle Zhong, I see. Then what will you do in the future?" Xiang Wan asked.

"You silly boy, I haven't finished my sentence yet. Why don't you worry about yourself? What will you do in the future? I'm worried about your Uncle Zhong." Uncle Zhong said, "Fortunately, your parents were prepared, but It has been inconvenient for them to talk to you about this before. Originally, if you went abroad, you would be able to live a life that is not much worse than before, but you may have to depend on others. Your parents originally planned to let you go to your aunt abroad As for living expenses, Uncle Zhong has them here. But don’t get me wrong, in fact, this living expenses were secretly saved by your parents for them in the past two years. They had already expected such a day, so they planned ahead. It's just that if you don't go abroad now, then I will arrange this for you. Your parents bought this house in my name, and it was in anticipation that you might be reluctant to leave, so I made this second-hand preparation. "

So that's the case, Xiang Wan thought, so her parents put so much effort behind her back, but she knew it too late.But apart from being sad, Xiang Wan was glad that he didn't go abroad, because that aunt didn't give Xiang Wan a good impression.Every time this so-called aunt came to his house, even though she brought gifts, Xiang Wan felt that she didn't like him very much and was just being polite to him.On the other hand, judging from Uncle Zhong's words, he didn't seem to know the whole story.Since this is the case, then I don't have time to be sad here, I have to be strong, Xiang Wan thought.

"Uncle Zhong, don't worry. I know everything. Give me some time to digest. Take care of yourself." Xiang Wan said with a smile.

Seeing Xiang Wan like this, Uncle Zhong felt very distressed. How could he not know how sad Xiang Wan was.But seeing the child so strong, he couldn't bear to say anything more.He got up and patted Xiang Wan on the shoulder. Uncle Zhong said, "I've fixed everything for you here, except for the things in the suitcase. From now on, you'll have to take care of yourself. But I'll call you anytime you need anything." Uncle Zhong's phone, I left the phone number on the refrigerator."

Then there was the sound of Uncle Zhong closing the door behind him when he left.Sitting on the sofa alone, Xiang Wan stared blankly at the corners of the house, or at the buildings outside, replaying in his mind the scene when the police entered his house when he left.He took out a photo of himself and his parents from a suitcase, which was taken when Xiangwan was five years old.At that time, my parents were also in the prime of life, but in their early thirties. Thinking about it this way, my parents are really old now, with a few more gray hairs on their heads, and the wrinkles around their eyes are also faintly visible.Xiang Wan hugged the photo, curled up on the sofa like a lonely cat.With wet eyes, Xiang Wan looked at the sky outside the window, and his vision gradually became blurred.

When Xiang Wan woke up on the sofa, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.His head was dizzy, and he couldn't even realize where he was for a while.Feeling his eyes were sticky, he went to the bathroom to wash his face.Only then did I realize that the interior of the bathroom was also very simple, and the walls hadn't even been painted.After washing his face, he seemed to wake up a little bit. When he remembered what happened today, he realized that he had been on a roller coaster. Only after he got off the car did he realize that the whole world was spinning.

Xiang Wan's stomach growled, and then he remembered that he didn't even eat lunch today.Seeing that there was nothing in the refrigerator to fill his stomach, he tidied up his messy hairstyle just after waking up, and went out.He remembered that he and Uncle Zhong saw a good convenience store in the community.When Uncle Zhong left in the afternoon, he left Xiangwan's living expenses for the first month and the tuition fee for the school report. According to Uncle Zhong, after graduation from university, Uncle Zhong will manage Xiangwan's living expenses and pay them out on a monthly basis.That's good, save yourself the trouble.

Xiang Wan didn't know how to cook, so when he arrived at the convenience store, he planned to buy instant noodles to satisfy his stomach today.But in the end, besides instant noodles, he also bought some snacks, because one bucket of instant noodles was less, and two buckets were more, in case he felt hungry at night.

After shopping and returning home, he went to the kitchen to boil water.After filling the kettle with water and plugging it into the socket, he saw a string of numbers on the refrigerator beside him, written with an oil-based pen.After a while, the water boiled, and Xiang Wan quickly finished soaking the instant noodles, and dragged three large suitcases into the room one by one.Fortunately, the beds and daily necessities are all ready, which saves a lot of burden.The three boxes were filled with clothes, shoes and many photos.Taking out the clothes and laying them on the bed, Xiang Wan realized that he couldn't fold clothes at all, so he took out his phone and looked it up online.It's just that the method he found online made him feel very troublesome, so he hastily folded the clothes and put them in the closet.And the shoes were placed in the shoe cabinet by the door.When he opened the last box, Xiang Wan was already sweating profusely.He slowly opened the zipper of the suitcase and saw many photos of himself and his parents inside.Seeing vivid pictures one after another, Xiang Wan's eyes filled with tears, which flowed down his cheeks mixed with sweat.He neatly arranged the photos with his parents one by one on the desk.There is another photo at the end, which is a group photo of Xiang Wan and Yu Sheng. The moment he saw Yu Sheng, Xiang Wan silently turned on his mobile phone, and found that there were many messages about Yu Sheng, and asked, "Have you left yet?" Did you arrive safely?" or something like that.But at this moment, Xiang Wan didn't know how to reply to him.How I wish this was all just a dream, Xiang Wan thought.

He never responded to Yu Sheng's message afterward. Facing Yu Sheng, he didn't know how to sort out his emotions, let alone how to tell him everything that he hadn't adapted to.The No. [-] Middle School will divide the freshmen into classes when they enter the freshman class. According to the results of Yu Sheng and Xiang Wan, they are likely to be in the same class.So, we will see each other again, Xiang Wan thought.

This night, looking at the bright and white moonlight projecting into the house in the sky, and looking at the stars outside the house, Xiang Wan thought of his parents who left him, Yu Sheng who hadn't met, and Uncle Zhong who had been with him for many years , In the end, fell into a deep sleep.
