Chapter 13 See you tomorrow
Chen Shuya cried for a long time. Finally, Cheng Xiang took her to the hospital to treat her wounds and her forehead was wrapped with gauze.
After leaving the hospital, Cheng Xiang asked, "Have you eaten?"
Chen Shuya shook her head.
So Cheng Xiang took her to a noodle shop to eat noodles. While waiting for the noodles, Chen Shuya kept her head down and her eyes were red.
Cheng Xiang felt unhappy and stood up and said, "I'm going to go buy something."
"good."
When Cheng Xiang came back, Chen Shuya was already full, with a large portion of noodles still left in the bowl. He asked, "Aren't you going to eat anymore?"
Chen Shuya shook her head: "I can't eat anymore."
Chen Shuya sent the location to Ning Yan, and Ning Yan asked her to wait for him at the door of the noodle shop.
After knowing this, Cheng Xiang nodded without saying anything. He waited at the door with Chen Shuya and handed the bag in his hand to Chen Shuya.
When Chen Shuya opened it, she saw that it was full of medicines needed to treat the wound, as well as some other unrelated medicines.
Stomach medicine, cold medicine, band-aids...
Her nose felt sore: "Why buy so many medicines?"
Cheng Xiang's voice mixed with the noisy voices and reached her ears: "I bought it for you as a spare."
After a pause, he added: "Of course, I hope you never have to use it."
I don’t know if it’s because the wind was too strong at night or his words were too touching, but Chen Shuya’s eyes were sore and she couldn’t describe her mood.
Ning Yan came very quickly. She was a little surprised to see Cheng Xiang there. She was even more surprised to see the bandaged wound on Chen Shuya's forehead: "What's wrong, Shuya? What happened to your forehead?"
Chen Shuya smiled indifferently, and said calmly: "I touched it by accident."
Ning Yan looked at Cheng Xiang behind her and asked, "Why are you with him?"
Before he could say anything, Cheng Xiang said, "Let's go home first. It's quite cold outside."
Ning Yan took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth and nodded.
That night, Chen Shuya sent a WeChat message to Cai Yan.
Jiangnan: "Mom, please ask for leave for me tomorrow."
Mom: “Okay.”
Mom: "Are you at Yanyan's house? How is the wound on your forehead?"
Jiangnan: "Yes, Yanyan helped me bandage it."
Mom: “That’s good.”
The next day, Ning Yan woke up Chen Shuya, and after she had packed up, Chen Shuya said, "I asked my mom to take a leave, so I won't go to school."
Ning Yan asked: "Are you going home?"
Chen Shuya shook her head and said softly, "I'm going to go find grandma."
Whenever Chen Shuya was in a bad mood, she would go and sit in front of her grandmother's grave. Ning Yan knew this.
My grandmother’s grave is not far away, just in the south of the city.
Just like Chen Shuya’s mood, the weather today was not very good and it was raining heavily outside the window.
Chen Shuya used the remaining money she had to take a taxi.
The rain was heavy, soaking her shoes and socks.
In the past, every time she visited her grandma, she would bring a bouquet of flowers, but this time she didn't. Chen Shuya stood in front of her grandma's grave with an umbrella, and tears fell unconsciously.
"Grandma, I really miss you."
"Mingming, you are my only support, why did you leave me?"
"I'm not doing well, why is it me?"
Gradually, Chen Shuya's sobbing turned into squatting on the ground and crying loudly, and her umbrella was blown very far away by the wind.
In the heavy rain, she squatted there crying, her tears blurring her eyes and mixing with the rain.
When she had cried enough and stood up, everything in front of her eyes went dark and she could not stand steadily, so she knelt straight on the ground.
Blood oozed from her knees and mixed with the rain water. Chen Shuya wanted to get up but she was too weak to stand.
Immediately afterwards, warm liquid flowed out of the nasal cavity. Chen Shuya touched it and it was a glaring bright red color.
She propped herself up on the ground and tried hard to stand up, but her whole body was weak and she couldn't move. She knelt there, wiped the blood from her nose, and suddenly laughed out loud.
"What a rotten body."
"Forget it, it's better to die."
The next second, an umbrella appeared above my head, blocking the wind and rain.
Chen Shuya turned her head and saw Cheng Xiang looking at her with his eyes lowered, his face pale.
She spoke in a hoarse voice: "Why are you here?"
Cheng Xiang didn't answer her, but grabbed her wrist and tried to pull her up.
Chen Shuya said with some grievance: "Cheng Xiang, my legs are weak and I can't stand up."
In the end, Cheng Xiang carried her home on his back. She lay on his back and said, "I was soaked to the skin and you still carried me."
Cheng Xiang said lightly: "Then why don't you stand up and show me."
"cut."
In the silence , Chen Shuya suddenly asked: "What kind of girls do you like?"
Cheng Xiang replied: "You are like this."
For a moment, Chen Shuya's heart was in her throat.
Cheng Xiang then said, "No."
"You are sick?"
…
Half a month later, the summer vacation of No. 1 Middle School quickly arrived. After the exam on the afternoon of the holiday, Chen Shuya was packing her schoolbag when Cheng Xiang behind her suddenly stuffed a draft book into her schoolbag.
She looked at him blankly.
Cheng Xiang said, "I'm too lazy to take the stuff back. I'm afraid the draft will be lost. Can you help me carry it?"
"oh."
However, his reasons seemed reasonable, so Chen Shuya did not refuse.
Before leaving, Cheng Xiang suddenly grabbed him, with a smile in his eyes: "If you have time in the evening, you can go to the bookstore to see the dog."
Chen Shuya was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."
That night, Chen Shuya hurriedly finished her meal, said hello to Cai Yan, and went out.
Before I reached the bookstore, I saw Cheng Xiang on the street with the big golden retriever sitting at his feet.
Chen Shuya smiled, ran to Cheng Xiang and patted him: "Cheng Xiang!"
Cheng Xiang put away his phone, a smile appeared in his eyes: "Where do you want to go?"
"Hmm..." After thinking for a while, she said, "The beach."
Cheng Xiang handed the dog leash to her and walked side by side with her.
There were people coming and going on the street, and with him around, I felt inexplicably at peace.
When they reached the beach, Chen Shuya let go and let the golden retriever roll around happily on the beach.
She and Cheng Xiang were sitting next to each other, the sea breeze blowing towards them. She said, "You are such a good person, who will get you the chance in the future?"
Cheng Xiang tilted his head slightly, with unfathomable emotions in his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse: "If possible, I want to give it to someone I like in the future."
Chen Shuya propped her chin with both hands and glanced at him: "What kind do you like?"
The golden retriever was amused by the waves at the beach. The two of them watched quietly. In the sea breeze, his voice floated into her ears.
"I like those who are like elementary school students."
Chen Shuya was startled and her heart skipped a beat.
After a long while, she turned her head, smiled at him with sparkling eyes and said, "Then I wish you meet him."
After saying that, she turned her head and continued to look at the sea.
Cheng Xiang's gaze stayed on her. He wanted to say that he had met her, but he couldn't open his mouth.
When sending her home, Cheng Xiang took out his phone and said, "Add me on WeChat."
Chen Shuya responded and took out her phone to scan his QR code.
After adding him as a friend, Chen Shuya waved to him and said, "I'm going home. Bye."
Cheng Xiang nodded.
Chen Shuya turned around and walked a few steps, and Cheng Xiang suddenly called her: "Ya Ya."
She paused and turned to look.
Under the street lamp, he was enveloped by the light and smiled faintly: "See you tomorrow."
Her heart warmed and she smiled: "Well, see you tomorrow, Xiangxiang."
