Tomorrow can be expected

The author has something to say: today's second update

Back in No. [-] Middle School, the last class in the afternoon has just ended.

The four went directly to the school cafeteria for dinner.

Today's dinner became extremely silent, and Chen Can and Qian Siyuan were also silent.

"Chen Can, in a moment, go back to class and help Jane understand her book and practice questions. I'll come over after school at night to get them."

"what happened?"

Chen Can didn't understand Jiang Chen's meaning at all.

Why do you want to hear things clearly for Jane?

Jane listens, isn't she coming to class?

"... She probably didn't have time to bring anything in the morning... The monthly exam will be in two days, so bring the books back for her to review... There is always something to do..."

"Ah? No way? Is my goddess going to take part in this monthly exam?"

Chen Can couldn't understand that he had to take the exam after encountering such a thing.

"Monthly exam on weekends, what day is it today? The day after tomorrow... I guess she will go back to school the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. With her character, she probably won't miss the exam."

Not taking the monthly exam means that she cannot reassure those she cares about.

Jane would not make people so worried, Jiang Chen knew this.

"Okay then, I'll help her tidy up when I study late at night."

Chen Can poked at the rice grains on the dinner plate with little interest. The food on the third floor of the cafeteria today was not tasty.

"... If someone in your class asks you, just say that Jane Ting took sick leave. That matter... remember to keep it secret."

Lin Xue did not forget to remind Chen Can.

"I know this, don't worry, I will never forget this, and I will never talk about it."

"Me too. Don't worry, the young master won't say anything."

Qian Siyuan answered.

"No one is allowed to tell, and there is no need to tell. Understand you two?"

"clear."

"Of course I understand."

……

……

A lowly supper spends in mostly wordless...

After school, Jiang Chen came to Class 11 as scheduled, and took Jane Ting's schoolbag from Chen Can.

During the period, many students from other classes who paid close attention to Jane Ting came to inquire about the reason why Jane Ting did not show up in the afternoon.

Class 11 students replied "sick leave" very uniformly.

This is also the answer I got from Chen Can.

After taking Jane Ting's schoolbag, Jiang Chen didn't want to waste a moment.

She parked the bicycle she had ridden in the morning in the school carport, and went directly to the school gate to take a taxi.

……

……

When my aunt saw Jiang Chen at the door of Jian's house again, she was really surprised.

But in addition to being surprised, it seemed to see hope.

The lunch and dinner sent to Jane Ting today, although Jane Ting ate it, she vomited after a while.

Jane heard this state, and my aunt was very worried...

"Student, what's your name?"

"Auntie, my name is Jiang Chen."

"Okay, Jiang Chen. I'm a little worried. Jane heard that she didn't eat anything all day, and almost vomited out all the food she ate. Can you help me..."

"It's okay, Auntie. Don't worry, I'll try it."

Jiang Chen followed his aunt to the kitchen on the first floor of Jian's house.

"Is there anything else I can eat now?"

"Yes, there is also porridge. Xiao Ting's aunt made white porridge because Xiao Ting couldn't eat anything, and also fried some vegetables. The porridge has been warming in the rice cooker. I will heat up the vegetables now, please wait later Bring it to Xiao Ting."

"it is good."

My aunt found a dinner plate from the cabinet, and put some of the hot vegetables on the plate.Another bowl of porridge was placed in the middle of the wooden dinner plate.

These are tableware purchased by Jane's mother.

Jane's mother, whose hobby is painting, also has her own unique taste in aesthetics.

Jiang Chen took the plate from his aunt and slowly went upstairs.

Jian's house after 10 o'clock in the evening is no longer as crowded as it was during the day.

In the lobby on the first floor, there were no longer bustling crowds, only a few solemn adults walked around occasionally.

……

……

Jane was not in her room, so Auntie told Jiang Chen that she should be on the observation deck on the top floor.

Jiang Chen climbed another level.

There was a glass door that shone through, and she guessed it was the door to the viewing platform.

Jiang Chen first carefully placed the dinner plate on the steps of the stairs, and then unscrewed the handle of the glass door.

The outdoor lights of the observation deck have not been turned on, and the light that penetrates into the room from the glass door is nothing but street lights in the community.

Looking out from the room full of light, I couldn't get used to it for a while.

Jiang Chen's eyes were all gray, and he didn't find any trace of anyone.

Confused, Jiang Chen fumbled to turn on the switch on the wall next to the door. This button was indeed used to control the outdoor lights.

The viewing platform at night was brightly lit, and Jiang Chen saw Jane Ting sitting in the corner of the viewing platform with her knees hugged at a glance.

Her heart sank instantly.

……

……

The sudden light frightened Jane Ting, who was immersed in herself alone, and she turned her head to look inside the door.

Realizing that the person standing by the door was Jiang Chen, he turned his head silently.

If it wasn't for Jiang Chen, she might...

Find another corner where there is no one...

Jiang Chen walked over to Jane Ting with the plate in his hand,

"Eat something. At least, some porridge?"

"You know... I don't have much appetite..."

If it was normal, Jiang Chen would be extremely moved when he heard the other party say "you know".

But considering the current situation, Jiang Chen can only feel distressed...

"...I just know that you can't reassure other people if you don't eat."

These words obviously had an effect on Jane.

It was as if Jane would still choose to eat today's lunch and dinner.

Seeing the other party take the spoon and porridge bowl, Jiang Chen felt a little relieved.

"It's just white porridge now, it's just white porridge. You put it in your mouth slowly...chew a few times...take your time. I'm not in a hurry today. If you feel sick to your stomach for a while, I can accompany you anyway. "

Jane Ting paused for a moment with the hand holding the soup spoon, then silently dug a spoonful of white porridge into her mouth.

Chew obediently and swallow slowly into your mouth.

There is warmth in the stomach.

……

……

hot summer.

Although there is a bit of cool wind at night, it still can't drive away the annoying heat.

Not long after he got outside, Jiang Chen was sweating on his forehead.

I really don't know what the girl in front of me is thinking?

Sometimes it's cold...sometimes it's hot...

really...really...

Worrying...

Amid Jiang Chen's gentle persuasion in a disguised form, Jian Ting ate a few mouthfuls of porridge and some vegetables.

This time, there seemed to be no discomfort.

"Are you going to wait here for heatstroke?"

Jiang Chen was a little sullen, but he didn't want to speak loudly to her.

……

……

"...When I was in junior high school, my dad often went on business trips... Mom often took me to sit here and watch the stars..."

What Jiang Chen wanted to say was choked in her throat, so she sat quietly and listened to Jane.

"And then? What will you talk about?"

"...A lot...My mother and I are actually very similar to friends...When I was young, she respected me very much...I can become what I am today, a large part of the reason is her influence...She is A...a, very good mother."

Jiang Chen reached out and patted Jane Ting's back lightly,

"I know, I can tell from the first time I saw you, you are, her best... baby."

Under the moonlight and lights, two lines of tears fell from the corners of Jane Ting's eyes.

……

……

"The first time I met you, you definitely don't remember it. It was the first day you came to No. 1 Middle School, and you hadn't come to class at that time. How should I put it? Teacher Liu was when we started school, and you weren't there yet. When you came to the school, she announced you as the study committee member and the representative of the Chinese class of our class. I was very curious at the time, who is this "Jian Ting"? Later, I heard from my classmates that you are the No. .[-]. I thought, well, then you can indeed be a study committee member..."

While remembering, Jiang Chen handed the tissue in his purse to the other party.

"Then I thought, how come this Jane Ting hasn't come to school yet? Could it be that she can skip classes because of good grades? But the teacher said, you asked for sick leave. Well, this deepened my curiosity about you. Then there was the day you came, it was really a coincidence... I ate in the school cafeteria for the first time, and after the meal, Chen Can took me to visit the girls' dormitory. I was a day student before, and I had never seen a school What the dormitory looks like. Unexpectedly, the teacher’s dormitory was being remodeled at that time, and Teacher Liu shared the same dormitory with Chen Can’s friends. We just arrived at the dormitory, and before we had a word with Chen Can’s friends, Teacher Liu came back ...and took you with her. She seemed to see you coming to school on the first day and explained some things to you. Then, she asked you to take away our class's homework book..."

Jiang Chen paused, but he was no longer embarrassed.

"You must not know how shocked I was when I saw you for the first time...and...surprised...I felt as if I saw the light...so...such a you, for any mother Said, it's all the best, the best. I think, because of you, she must be very happy."

……

……

Jiang Chen felt some weight on his right shoulder...

Jane Ting leaned against Jiang Chen and looked at the sky full of stars.

It should be sunny again tomorrow.

The sky is full of twinkling stars...

At this time of being dependent on others, it seems that Shu Qi is no longer willing to harass Jiang Chen.

She and Jane Ting sat quietly.

If company can heal more, Jiang Chen is willing to give it.

……

……

The weight from the right shoulder was getting heavier and heavier, Jiang Chen cautiously sounded out,

"Jane listen?"

After a while, there was still no response.

It seems that he fell asleep.

……

……

It was almost late at night, when my aunt found the viewing platform again, she saw Jian Ting, who was asleep, leaning against Jiang Chen's side.

The aunt went downstairs quietly and called her brother to help.

The uncle carefully picked up Jane Ting and went back to the bedroom on the second floor.

My aunt gently covered her with an air-conditioning quilt.

Along the way, Jane didn't even wake up.

Jiang Chen remembered that Jane had heard that she was a light sleeper, but this time, it was as if she was lethargic.

Jiang Chen felt even more sad and uncomfortable.

……

……

Seeing that it was getting late, my aunt and uncle wanted to keep Jiang Chen to spend the night at Jian's house.

Not wanting to bother the adults who had been busy all day, Jiang Chen rejected their kindness.

When he was going downstairs, Jiang Chen used his mobile phone to call the taxi driver he knew well.

The master is already on his way to Xingqiao Community, so my aunt and uncle are no longer attached.

……

……

In the hall on the first floor, the elderly father sat in front of the coffin and shed tears.

The mother, who couldn't bear the pain of losing her daughter, passed out and could only rest in the bedroom.

Father Jian was still entertaining colleagues and friends who came late at night.

Relatives of Jane's family are also busy entertaining guests.

Either pouring tea, or entertaining guests and offering incense to the spiritual tablet...

……

……

"Aunt"

Jiang Chen stopped his aunt who was walking in front of him.

The taxi had already stopped in front of Jian's house, and my aunt was about to bid farewell to Jiang Chen politely.

……

……

"...I want to offer incense sticks to Aunt Jane, is that okay?"

"Of course, of course. I'll take you there."

My aunt never thought that Jiang Chen would make such an application.

……

……

Standing in front of Jane's mother's coffin, Jiang Chen stared at the smiling woman in the photo.

She took the three sticks of incense from her aunt, and silently closed her eyes.

Hello, Auntie.

First time meeting, my name is Jiang Chen.

I am a good friend of Jane Ting.

You may not know me.

However, I have had your sandwich once and it was delicious.

Jane listen...

She loves you very much.

I hope your spirit in heaven can bless her,

This life,

Happiness, peace, health and longevity.

I know that you will bless her.

If given the chance, in another few decades.

When Jane is very old, when I am very old...

if there is another world

hope that time

We can all meet without regret

goodbye with a smile...
