[Whistle to] Obedience

Chapter 37 Long time no see

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the two went shopping in the south of the city, and saw a familiar figure.

Sui Jie grabbed Chen Youdeng's shoulder: "Look at Dengdeng! Don't you know him well?"

Chen Youdeng: "Are you familiar? You can find a lot of such faces on the street..."

Sui Jie: "???"

Chen Youdeng suppressed a smile: "I'm just kidding, go say hello to him."

That person was indeed Zhang Yuanhang. Sui Jie had met with him occasionally in the three years of junior high school since graduating from elementary school. Later, this kid changed his household registration in high school, and somehow got admitted to the provincial experimental middle school in the provincial capital. Sui Jie also slowly cut off contact.

Zhang Yuanhang turned his back to the two of them, their coastal city was extremely hot in winter, and he was still wearing a down jacket, with his head down, not knowing what he was doing.

Sui Jie approached quietly and patted him on the back.

Zhang Yuanhang almost jumped up in fright, turned his head and saw the two of them, their expressions perfectly completed the transition from surprise to joy.

"Brother Jie! Chen Youdeng!" He bounced up and hugged Sui Jie, and wanted to hug Chen Youdeng again, "Long time no see—"

Sui Jie pulled him by the collar and pulled him away from Chen Youdeng, "You are so powerful, you have traveled as far as Hezhou, and you never came back to take a look."

Zhang Yuanhang scratched his head and laughed, "I will come back to play with you in the future! Hey, you are also here to go shopping? I haven't been back for a long time, and there are a lot of new shops here!"

The three of them sat down in a coffee shop that was not so overcrowded, and chatted about the current situation.

Zhang Yuanhang, just like before, came back enthusiastically with the gossip hundreds of kilometers away, and said that Sui Jie and Chen Youdeng listened to his nonsense as if they were listening to a story. They said that their school used to have a bell tower, and then there was a couple. It was locked up when it was discovered, and it has been locked up until now.

Zhang Yuanhang: "I used to think there was some particularly scary allusion, who the hell knew it was because of this!"

Sui Jie said to himself: "The bell tower is a good place, it's tall and narrow, and there's no one there..."

Chen Youdeng glared at him, Sui Jie sensed Chen Youdeng's emotion, turned his head and smiled innocently at him.

Zhang Yuanhang was curious: "By the way, Brother Mustard, do you have... that?"

Sui Jie: "Which one?"

Zhang Yuanhang winked: "That's the one, you understand. Does sister-in-law have one?"

Before Sui Jie opened his mouth to speak, Chen Youdeng whispered, "It's possible to form a platoon."

Zhang Yuanhang has a good ear, he can hear all this, and said excitedly: "Wow, really?! Brother Jie, you are really good. I was in that crappy school, and everyone was dating handsome boys and girls from Shuangshang Gao. People like me You can only study hard..."

Sui Jie felt guilty: "Okay, okay, it's good to study hard, don't provoke me."

Zhang Yuanhang brought the dog's head closer, "Brother Mustard, do you have any photos of your sister-in-law? The current ones, not the old ones."

Sui Jie fried his hair, turned his head to Chen Youdeng and said, "I don't have the old one either!"

Zhang Yuanhang was puzzled: "Why are you so excited? Oh, my sister-in-law will check her mobile phone, right?"

Chen Youdeng: "No."

Zhang Yuanhang didn't know what Chen Youdeng was talking about, so he didn't think too much about it, and asked Sui Jie to show him the photo. Sui Jie's ears turned red when he teased her, and said, "My lock screen is your sister-in-law."

Zhang Yuanhang cheered and saw Sui Jie turn on the phone, showing the photo of Chen Youdeng staring at the screen in the lock screen interface wearing a cat ear headband.

The two of them watched Zhang Yuanhang slowly petrify from the excitement before seeing the photo clearly.

Zhang Yuanhang pointed at the two with trembling fingers: "This...this..."

The scene was very dramatic, just like when Zhang Yuanhang found out that Sui Jie had an extramarital affair, and that mistress was actually his good sister.The two of them saw that he was funny, Sui Jie added fire, and grabbed Chen Youdeng's shoulders, thinking that he would take a bite, and was resisted to the death, so he could only reluctantly kiss Chen Youdeng's hand.

When it was over, he smiled and said, "As you can see."

Zhang Yuanhang was stunned for a long time, and finally said that sentence: "...fuck me!"

Throughout the morning, Zhang Yuanhang kept asking about the two of them, and those who didn't know thought it was the staff of the dating agency.

However, due to the thin-skinned Chen Youdeng, Zhang Yuanhang didn't ask in-depth questions. Before leaving, he wiped his mouth as if he hadn't eaten enough: "Good fortune makes people, good fortune makes people."

Sui Jie: "A match made in heaven, let's make fun of you, uncle."

Zhang Yuanhang laughed "hahaha", finished the last sip of latte, and patted his buttocks: "I wish you two a happy marriage for a hundred years! Have a baby early!"

Sui Jie also laughed "hahaha", and cupped his hands in thanks: "I accept your words!"

After the two psychopaths bid farewell, they parted ways at the entrance of the coffee shop. Sui Jie clamored to go to the movies, but Chen Youdeng had no choice but to fulfill his wish. He bought a ticket for a Lunar New Year movie in a nearby crowded theater, leaving only the corner one. Two seats, there is no way.

As a result, while waiting for the movie to start, the two received a call from Xiang Ying, saying that Fang Youzhen had passed out again.

Braving the cold wind and rushing to the hospital, the two of them saw Xiang Ying smoking on the lawn outside the hospital, his prairie wolf Rong Zheng shaking its fur in the wind.

"Xiang Ying!" As the two ran closer, Xiang Ying extinguished the cigarette burning up to her fingers on the lid of the trash can, and turned to face the two of them.

Xiang Ying's eyes were red.

They looked at each other uneasily.

In the morning Xiang Ying went downstairs to buy breakfast, but when she returned to the ward with hot fish porridge, she found Fang Youzhen lying on the floor of the toilet.

"It should have happened in the past few months." Xiang Ying said in a low voice when he got on the elevator with them, "The doctor said it's coming soon, it's not easy to hold on for so long..."

His lips quivered slightly, imperceptibly, but both children could tell.

After the winter vacation, the two of them visited Fang Youzhen several times. Although he still tried to create a relaxed atmosphere while talking and laughing, they could all see that Fang Youzhen's complexion was already very bad, and he seldom sat up. It sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It was barely saved today, but it might not be the case next time.That's what the doctor said.

The widowed guide has survived alone for more than six years. This is shocking news no matter where it is placed. Fang Youzhen has struggled for so long, perhaps...

"Maybe it's really time." Chen Youdeng murmured.

Sui Jie knew what he was thinking, and quietly held his hand.

They took the elevator to the ward where Fang Youzhen was. Fang Youzhen hadn't woken up yet. Xiang Ying leaned over and tucked him in the quilt, and said, "Now I only wake up for two or three hours every day...sometimes I can't eat, and I vomit when I'm fed porridge." , talking to him and not responding..."

Xiang Ying rarely rambled so much, especially when facing their two children, it seemed that she was really flustered this time.

Sui Jie patted his arm and said, "Don't be sad..."

He was already as tall as Xiang Ying.

Rongpipi also swam to Rongzheng who was lying on the ground, grunted to comfort the frustrated prairie wolf, and stretched out his short, fat paws to stroke its head.

Rong Zheng rarely avoided Suanpipi's closeness, but closed his eyes and swung his tail from side to side.

Xiang Ying didn't speak any more, but the despair in her eyes seemed to overflow.

Fang Youzhen's skinny body was wrapped in a loose hospital gown, like a piece of paper that would be blown away by the wind at any time.

They stayed with Xiang Ying until night, and at nine o'clock, the nurse came to chase her away, and they had to go home.

The two of them walked side by side on the road, their hearts were heavy, and they had nothing to say along the way.

Passing by the brightly lit gymnasium at night, people in the square are laughing and having fun, children are laughing and throwing cannons everywhere, teenagers and girls are forming a circle to release fairy sticks, and many people are buying expensive fireworks. He ran over to touch the lead wire with his ears open, and ran back to his partner with a hahaha smile, watching a bright light leap into the black and blue night sky, and then explode into extremely dazzling gorgeous flowers.

Sui Jie stopped to watch the fireworks that were blooming one after another, and Chen Youdeng stopped after him, looking at his side face that was illuminated by the bright and bright fireworks.

After a while, the loud noise of "bang bang bang" stopped, and the echo gradually disappeared in the distance, leaving only a few wisps of smoke floating in the air, implying that extremely beautiful but extremely short moment just now.

The two stopped watching and raised their legs to leave.

This time, the hand was held extremely tightly.
