Chapter 347 Good Times from Now on
When Chang Youwei brought people to clean up the aftermath, he was stunned for a few seconds when he saw Old K with a bruised face and nose.
Then he said with a tut-tut sound: "It has come to this point. Why are you still resisting? What will happen if you resist? This is the outcome. Give up resistance and you will get beaten less!"
After saying this, he quickly asked someone to take Old K away from Chi Xia.
Old K was taken away, and his colleagues were conducting the aftermath search and arrest. Uncle Gen was also taken out, and Chi Xia had nothing to do for a while.
On the hospital bed, Huang Xujie lifted the quilt and tried to get out of bed, but after lying in bed for so long, he fell down as soon as his feet touched the ground and he tried to support himself with his hands to stand up.
He fell heavily to the ground, almost unable to feel his lower body. When he turned his head to look over, Chi Xia was looking at him blankly.
Huang Xujie suddenly laughed, and his laugh changed from a low laugh to a sad laugh: "We were all harmed by him."
Chi Xia stood there blankly: "Yes, we were all harmed by him."
She thought of Qu Bai, her eyes empty: "It would be great if I could kill him."
"We still have to live a good life, why kill him?"
A gentle voice came from behind, Qu Bai walked in and ruffled her hair: "You did a good job."
Chi Xia turned her head to look at him, feeling inexplicably wronged, and tears came out of her eyes again.
Qu Bai patted her arm and walked over to help Huang Xujie up.
"I've arranged a doctor for you," he said to Huang Xujie, "to take charge of your rehabilitation training."
"Okay?" Huang Xujie smiled at him: "Qu Bai, thank you."
"Why thank me?" Qu Bai covered his legs with a blanket: "You are also a hero."
Chi Xia walked over and pulled Qu Bai's sleeve: "He said that your health is very poor, worse than I knew, right?"
"Yes." Qu Bai looked at her gently: "You won't die, believe me."
Chi Xia had tears in her eyes as she stared at him stubbornly, neither saying whether she believed it nor whether she didn't.
"Luo Xun took me to see Doctor Qiu a long time ago." Qu Bai sighed softly: "The medicines I took later were all given to me by Doctor Qiu."
Chi Xia was stunned: "When?"
"After Yu Ji came back, Luo Xun secretly looked for me once."
Qu Bai smiled and said, "I hope I can live until you get married."
"What about the kidney?" Chi Xia didn't listen to his comfort: "Do you want to replace it?"
"Change."
Qu Bai did not hide the truth from her: "Doctor Qiu said that my liver and kidneys are both severely damaged, but it is too risky to replace them at the same time. We have discussed it and decided that I will do the kidney transplant first to be safe."
Chi Xia felt wronged and angry. She wanted to run back and grab Old K's head and bang it against the wall. She cried out, "Then take mine."
"No." Qu Bai smiled and shook his head: "You still have to eliminate harm for the people."
Chi Xia emphasized his voice: "If I were in your place, I could also eliminate harm for the people!"
Ade pushed Yang Shujun in. The dust had settled and the people he cared about were still there. This was the best gift God had given him.
"Mine. "
He finally laughed: "My husband and I have already discussed it. I am destined to be a cook. Cooks can have one kidney, but police officers cannot. Doctor Qiu has already agreed."
"Yes, the cook can, but the police can't."
Qu Bai also echoed Ade's words: "The elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled at home all have to rely on the protection of the people's policeman Comrade Chi Xia."
After saying this, he turned around, squatted down and greeted Yang Shujun: "Thank you for teaching her so well."
Yang Shujun was so sad that she couldn't speak. She just held his hand tightly and nodded.
There was no contact between them, but they seemed so familiar with each other because of one person.
Luo Xun walked in from outside, holding a blanket and thick clothes in his hands: "It's cold outside, wrap Auntie in a blanket."
He gave the thick clothes to Qu Bai: "Doctor Qiu and Guilai are waiting for you outside."
Chi Xia was startled. She glanced back and forth between Qu Bai and Luo Xun: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Luo Xun replied: "Auntie and Huang Xujie both need to be examined and recuperated. Qu Bai's health can't be delayed any longer. Doctor Qiu means that the sooner he receives treatment, the better."
Qu Bai put on his clothes and said, "Ade knows best how much I have taken care of my body over the years. I am in Dongzhou, what are you worried about? Come on, go out with me."
"Go ahead." Luo Xun gently pushed her from behind: "I'll take care of this."
Chi Xia hummed.
As soon as Chi Xia and Qu Bai went out, they saw Uncle Gen standing at the door wiping his tears.
From his condition, they all knew that Uncle Gen had overheard the conversation just now.
The three of them looked at each other in silence. Uncle Gen tugged at his clothes nervously and hurriedly. Finally, he lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry to bother you."
"How can one dislike the troubles of one's own family?"
Qu Bai smiled and said, "During the days I was in the hospital, you and Aunt Gen had to take care of me."
Uncle Gen looked at him with eyes wide open. Soon, he laughed until tears came out and nodded heavily: "Oh, okay, okay, I'll take care of you and make you plump and white!"
"So don't think too much about it."
Qu Bai comforted him: "Heizi and the others will be here soon and will come to see you soon. We still have to open our bar and live our lives, right?"
Uncle Gen suppressed his surging emotions and nodded: "Yes, we have to live a good life."
"Life is long, we have to live it slowly."
…
Qu Bai and Chi Xia walked outside and stood in the open space in front of the small building. Occasionally, there were police officers passing by.
"Late summer."
Qu Bai spoke first. He looked up at the dark sky and said, "It should be cloudy today, but our sky is clear from now on."
Sadness surged to Chi Xia's nose, and she looked up: "After my memory was restored, I slowly remembered a lot of trivial things, but there was one thing that I only remembered when Lao K took me to the underground cage that day and I got into that human skin."
Qu Bai asked her: "What?"
"Once I was seriously injured. There was no star in the sky that night. I asked you, when will the day come? If it stays dark, what should we do? "
Qu Bai lowered his head and smiled: "What did I say?"
Chi Xia tilted her head back, tears rolling down her cheeks.
A few seconds later, in the dark night, their voices rang out at the same time, in perfect harmony: "If the dark clouds cover the sky and the sin cannot be dissipated, then cover the cloud and create another sun, hanging above the sky and people's hearts."
"But where is our sun?" Chi Xia asked, "Our sun also came too late."
"You are my sun." Qu Bai put his hand on her shoulder: "Chi Xia, you are."
She is hope, she is the sun, she is the support that has kept him struggling in the quagmire for so many years, and she is the destination for all of them.
After a while, Chi Xia laughed: "Yes, I am the sun."
Qu Bai went to see her smile and said, "Do you remember that you once told me that you wanted a big home with lots of flowers, your own room, big windows, and a soft bed? You said you were willing to give me half of it."
Chi Xia chuckled: "I forgot, how old was I at that time?"
Qu Bai gestured beside his legs and said, "It's very small, only about this size. He has only been here for a few days. Not long after you said this, he took you underground."
Chi Xia smiled softly, as if making fun of herself at that time.
“Now we all have it.”
Qu Bai had never felt so relaxed and satisfied as he did at that moment. He said, "When you said this, I knew that we were born to be a family."
"I have money." Chi Xia said, "I can buy you a house and take care of you in your old age. I will also take care of Ade. You will have everything you want."
"Ade..." Qu Bai rubbed his nose with his index finger and laughed: "That kid doesn't have much ambition, he just wants a big kitchen."
"Then I'll give it to him too."
"What about Luo Xun?" Qu Bai laughed at her, "You always favor your family members, what about him?"
Chi Xia didn't even think about it: "Luo Xun understands, he won't mind. I can tell the difference, and he can tell the difference too, and I will treat him well."
"I know."
Qu Bai saw Luo Xun and the others coming out of the small building. He rubbed Chi Xia's head and said, "I will go home, back to our home. I promise you."
Chi Xia wiped away her tears and said, "You know, I have always believed in you."
"Just trust me."
Qu Bai exhaled: "Let's go, see us off and say goodbye to your mother. You still have things to do tonight."
"You are in Dongzhou. I can see you whenever I want. I can see you eight times a day."
Chi Xia said this, but still listened to him and ran towards Yang Shujun.
Lin Wenjue and his men rushed over from their respective battlefields. They hurriedly asked about the final result, and then hugged and cheered in the dark night.
Finally, Heizi ran towards the direction of Qu Bai and Uncle Gen, and Lin Wenjue walked towards the direction of Luo Xun.
They high-fived, bumped shoulders, and stood there in silence for a moment.
"Do you remember?"
Lin Wenjue took out two cigarettes and handed one to Luo Xun: "This is what we said at the last class meeting when we graduated."
Luo Xun smiled silently: "Of course I remember."
Throughout our lives, through scorching sun and cold winter, I will be loyal to my heart, loyal to my motherland, loyal to my people, and use all my blood to protect the country from harm.
“We did it.”
Luo Xun took a deep breath and said, "Old Lin, we did it, but for some people, this kind of justice is many years late."
"yes."
Lin Wenjue thought of Luo Lingfei, he saw Heizi, Uncle Gen, Qu Bai and Yang Shujun.
He missed the enthusiastic and kind girl so much, but she had been buried in the world for so many years.
Justice has come for everyone, but they have been trapped in the abyss for too long to achieve such an end.
He exhaled a long puff of smoke: "We still have a long way to go."
Luo Xun's eyes followed Chi Xia. Her figure was slender and pretty in the night, as if the girl he first met was just an illusory dream in his mind.
"Look." Lin Wenjue bumped his shoulder: "That's our policewoman, the hero of the police station."
Luo Xun smiled: "That's my girlfriend."
"That's not what you said when you first met her."
"That's because I'm blind."
Luo Xun pushed him and said, "Have some sense and stop being a light bulb."
He walked towards Chi Xia and Qu Bai, and saw Qu Bai standing by the car. He waved in his direction before getting in the car.
Luo Xun stopped and waved.
The car drove away, Chi Xia turned around and walked towards him.
Luo Xun thought that every step they had taken had been full of twists and turns, but now that the dust had settled, their life from now on should be smooth sailing.
It should be a good time every day, and we should follow the right time.
