Chapter 476 Extra Volume 2: Xia Houyuan's High School

Hearing this, Xia Houyuan hesitated for a moment, then picked up the phone.At this time, there was a phone call.It was an unfamiliar number, Xia Houyuan frowned.There are a lot of fraudulent calls these years. Generally, if it is an unfamiliar number, you will be hesitant to answer it, but Xia Houyuan still connected. If it is a fraudulent call, just hang up when the time comes.

After the call was connected, a middle-aged man's voice came from the phone: "Hello, is this the son of Xia Guanghai and Lin Xue?"

Such a familiar opening sentence made Xia Houyuan's heart sink suddenly.

In this world, what is the probability of a person having an accident?How likely is it to die by accident?

Probably some statisticians have done such data investigation and statistics.

However, no matter what percentage, for those families whose family members died in accidents, the pain is [-]%.

During Chinese New Year, the atmosphere is always festive.

Lively celebration music was played in the streets and alleys.

At that time, the Internet was not so developed, and the Chinese New Year was not as happy as ten years later.

Even though it is not like the 90s, there will be dragon and lion dances, but the fireworks are still very rich.

Visiting relatives and friends, meeting acquaintances on the road saying happy new year, children playing fireworks for that kind of game...

This atmosphere continued until the night of the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

But no one knows that at this time, there are also some people who have encountered accidents in their lives. Therefore, instead of being lively, this Spring Festival is as sad as white snow and dim lights.

Wan Hetong looked sideways at Xia Houyuan. In the past few days, he has experienced a series of things such as the bad news of his parents' car accident, contacting funeral services, cremation, etc., and he doesn't even expect to rest.

Xia Houyuan lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye - based on his already thin foundation.

The taxi was driving very fast. It was night, and there were no cars on the road. The snow had been swept to the sides, showing signs of melting.

The dim yellow street lamps ran over Xia Houyuan's face time and time again like weightless tanks.

The blankness and sadness in his eyes make people want to hug him.

Today they sent the urns of Xiahouyuan's parents to the cemetery.The cemetery was very expensive, and Xia Houyuan couldn't afford the money, so Wan Hetong paid in advance.In the past, Xia Houyuan would definitely say that he would pay it back in the future, but this time, his face was pale and he didn't say a word, all his thoughts were on the death of his parents.

The car accident happened so suddenly. While Xia Houyuan was still waiting for his parents to come back at home, his parents crashed into an abandoned building that was about to be demolished because of brake failure. The police said that if it was just like this, they might not have died. However, because of the impact of the car, the dilapidated building collapsed, burying them under the bricks.

Not to mention Xia Houyuan, it took Wan and Tong a long time to accept this fact.

However, Xia Houyuan still had a lot of things to deal with, and he didn't have time to digest these emotions.

The taxi stopped at the gate of the community, Wan Hetong took out his wallet, paid the bill, and looked at Xia Houyuan.Xia Houyuan was still in a daze, unaware that he had already returned home.Wan Hetong had no choice but to raise his hand and pat his thin shoulder lightly.Only then did Xia Houyuan come to his senses.

"Huh?" Xia Houyuan looked at Wan Hetong in a daze.

Wan and Tong said, "We're home."

"Here?" Xia Houyuan looked out the window, answered, opened the car door and walked down.

The temperature was very low, about three or four degrees, and there was a long street at the gate of the community, only the two of them were standing.

Wan Hetong watched the taxi leave and looked back at Xia Houyuan. Xia Houyuan stood there quietly, but his face was curled up in the shadow of the night, so that Wan Hetong couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Xia Houyuan..." Wan Hetong stood one meter away from him, took a step towards him, and then backed away.

"Let's go upstairs." He said to Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan nodded, turned around and walked into the community.

Wan Hetong, however, seemed to muster up his courage, and finally quickened his pace and walked to Xia Houyuan's side.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Wan Hetong held Xia Houyuan's cold right hand.

Xia Houyuan's whole body couldn't help trembling.

Wan Hetong held Xia Houyuan's hand even tighter.

When I got back to the house, the house was also shivering because no one lived in it for several days.

They did not return to Xia Houyuan's home, and Wan and Tong worried that he would be hurt.He took Xia Houyuan to his home.Change shoes, turn on the heating, charge the hand warmer, open the refrigerator to see if there is any food that can be heated and eaten...Xia Houyuan sat on the sofa and watched Wan and Tong busy to and fro, the accumulation of grief accumulated over the past few days In his heart, he couldn't evacuate at all, hooking all his emotions into a trough.

After a while, Wan Hetong came over with a hand warmer and put it in Xia Houyuan's hand.He said, "Warm your hands."

Xia Houyuan's hands were indeed frozen, and the heat from the hand warmer was transmitted from the palm to the whole body.

However, it seemed that those numb pains gradually untied the ice and began to move in Xia Houyuan's body.

Xia Houyuan's eyes instantly turned red again.

Why... died all of a sudden?

Xia Houyuan lowered his head, trying hard to hold back the tears that swirled in his eyes, but the scenes of living with his parents when he was a child flashed through his mind frame by frame, stimulating his tear glands again and again.

From now on he will be alone.

No need to worry about my father's gambling debts outside, no need to suffer from the fact that my mother cheated... Everything suddenly came to an end with their death.

However, this abrupt ending was like a railway track that was cut off suddenly. Sitting on the train, he could no longer reach the expected destination.

The dream in which both parents are still there, and the whole family talks and laughs.

A tear fell from his eye socket and slid down his cheek.

At this time, Wan Hetong came over with a steaming bowl of noodles. He sat down beside him and said, "I cooked a bowl of noodles for you, eat it while it's hot."

Xia Houyuan nodded slightly with his lips trembling.

He took the noodle bowl, took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of noodles and put them into his mouth.

However, at the moment when he tasted the warmth, the hot tears could no longer be held back, flowing down like water that had broken a dam.

A low-pitched sob escaped his throat.
