I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 247 The Long Farewell
Local taxi drivers in Tang'an need navigation to reach places, which shows how remote they are.

The road is not good either, with eighteen twists and turns.

The sunset is westward.

Su Chengyi was holding the flowerpot and was being shaken around in the back seat.

Obviously, the straight-line distance is not that far on the map.

In Tang'an City, I actually experienced what it means to run to death in Wangshan Mountain.

When he finally arrived at his destination, the driver breathed a sigh of relief at the same time as him.

Fortunately, I didn't run to the wrong place.

Su Chengyi glanced out the car window.

"Jushan Nursing and Rehabilitation Center"

This is it. I asked Granny Xu’s son for the address of the nursing home.

Su Chengyi took out three bills and handed them to the front row.

"Master, could you please wait for me here for a while? About half an hour.

It's not easy to take a taxi when I get out here.You can bill based on your time. "

You can make money just by waiting here. Of course, the driver has no reason to refuse such a good thing.

He nodded hastily, leisurely turned off the fire and started smoking a cigarette and listening to the radio station.

After Su Chengyi got out of the car, he patted the soil that fell from the flowerpot when he was tossing around.

Fortunately it was very dry and did not leave any ugly marks.

After all, you are here to visit a patient, so you still need to pay attention to your appearance.

The iron fence at the door was locked, and only a small door was opened next to it.

Su Chengyi had just taken a few steps closer when someone called him to stop him.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The middle-aged man in security uniform opened the window, his tone was not very good, and he glanced at him up and down several times.

Su Chengyi stood still and replied:

"Hello, I'm here to visit the patient."

"Visiting?"

The security guard curled his lips as if he heard something strange, took out a notebook from the drawer, and then asked:
"What's the name?"

"The patient's name is Xu Huiying."

"Which Hui?"

"Smart wisdom."

"Well, found it."

After confirming that there was indeed such a person in the nursing home, the security guard waved him in.

"You also need to register your personal information. We have strict management here."

Su Chengyi nodded and didn't care.

Seeing how cooperative he was with his work, the security guard's expression relaxed a lot, and he even took the initiative to chat with him.

"You are still a student, right? Did you come alone?"

"just graduated."

“That’s about the same age as my son.

Remember, after entering later, you can only enter the room 213 you reserved, don't wander around.

When the visiting hours are up, a nurse will remind you, don't delay, come out immediately. "

The security guard spoke in a serious tone. Although Su Chengyi was a little strange, he still agreed.

Strict management is understandable, but is this a bit too much?

Su Chengyi walked in with doubts.

The courtyard is well greened and the trees are lush.There are many fitness facilities in the square, and some people wearing hospital gowns are exercising.

Su Chengyi walked past them without attracting anyone's attention.

Although he had always known it was a nursing home, before coming here, Su Chengyi's impression of the nursing home was actually similar to that of a nursing home.

In my imagination, it should be a group of old men and old ladies singing and dancing, like some kind of artistic party.

But here they all have to wear hospital gowns, and the patients are not all elderly people, there are many middle-aged young people.

After walking through the door, the smell of disinfectant was a bit pungent. Before Su Chengyi could clearly see the structure of the first floor, a nurse holding a notebook reached out to stop him.

After verifying that the information was correct, she led him upstairs.

Room 213 is No. 13 on the second floor, in the corner.

While walking through the corridor, Su Chengyi glanced at other wards quietly.

There were a few empty rooms, and in the rooms occupied, they were either sleeping or watching TV.

There are some inexplicable abnormalities among the normal, which cannot be explained.

"213Xu Huiying, someone is here to see you."

The nurse stood in front of the door and knocked.

Su Chengyi raised his eyes and looked over. Granny Xu was sitting on the hospital bed with her back to the door, as if looking out the window.

After not seeing her for a few months, her back seemed to be a lot stooped, and her hair had turned gray.

The nurse's voice was very loud in the quiet corridor, but she didn't move as if she didn't hear her.

"Understand, the patient has Alzheimer's disease and may not remember you."

As soon as the nurse finished speaking, Su Chengyi was stunned for a moment.

Alzheimer's disease?

I didn't know anything about it before I came here. I thought I was staying here because of the recovery period after the surgery.

Although he was shocked in his heart, on the surface he just nodded.

The nurse didn't seem to have any intention of leaving. She didn't even close the door, but just waited at the door.

Su Chengyi walked lightly and slowly walked behind her. The setting sun lengthened his shadow and reflected it on the white floor tiles.

The nurse's voice just now did not attract Granny Xu's attention. After seeing this shadow, she came back to her senses and looked sideways at him.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Grandma Xu, I am Su Chengyi. Do you still remember me?"

Su Chengyi squatted down while holding on to the railing at the end of the bed, trying to keep his posture as low as possible.

Granny Xu frowned and looked at him with a more questioning look.

"Are you Xiaoyi? Impossible, Xiaoyi is here."

She made a gesture with her palm and stopped at the height of her waist.

"You just came to my place. You are such an older boy, how can you be careless?"

Fortunately, I still remember him, but the memory stays in his childhood.

Su Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"It's really me, Granny Xu. If you don't believe me, just look."

He handed the flower pot in his hand to her.

It was a pot of roses in full bloom.

He really nourished the sickly flower he asked for from Granny Xu.

Grandma Xu was startled and murmured, but said nothing.

"This is the flower you gave me."

Su Chengyi stood up and carefully placed it on the windowsill.

The windows in the nursing home are all sealed with iron bars, so there is no need to worry about them falling down and hitting anyone.

"I'm going to college and came to see you."

"Are you really being mean?"

"Ah."

Su Chengyi nodded and walked back to her.

Granny Xu's cloudy eyes seemed to become clearer, and her wrinkled face became more smiley.

"Okay, okay. It's good to go to college."

"You have to take care of yourself. I'll come back during the holidays."

Su Chengyi raised his head, but Granny Xu's rarely sober eyes kept resting on the flowerpot placed on the window sill.

Yes, Granny Xu is a sex lover.

He is someone who will pick up flowers thrown away by the florist and take them home and take good care of them.

But this ward was deserted and desolate, and her children didn't even prepare a single flower for her.

The roses are in bloom, and the wind blows through the corridor, causing the branches to sway, making the place full of vitality.

After a long time, the nurse knocked on the door, as if to remind him that visiting hours were up.

Su Chengyi had no choice but to stand up and said:
"Grandma Xu, I'm leaving first, you have a good rest."

When he received no response, he sighed softly, turned around and walked out.

His hand was suddenly grabbed.

Grandma Xu's hands are rough and full of cracked marks, which are proof of a lifetime of hard work.

Su Chengyi was a little confused, but she took out a small piece of bread from the pocket of her hospital gown and stuffed it into his hand.

It turned out to be an uncommon imported brand, and it tasted soft and not too sweet. Su Chengyi would buy a large box of it online and store it at home.

But this one had been squashed and the packaging was leaking.

"You're too thin. Eat more. You can't just grow taller but not fat."

These words seemed familiar, and Su Chengyi suddenly felt sour in his heart.

Alzheimer's disease made her forget many things, but she still remembered to care about herself.

Memories are a wonderful thing. Those things that Su Chengyi had forgotten are now remembered one by one.

When his parents quarreled when he was a child, he didn't want to hear it, so he hid in the corridor.The sound insulation effect of the old unit building is not good, and neighbors can hear anyone quarreling, but only Granny Xu will come to take him away.

He got full marks in the exam, which is commonplace in everyone's eyes.Grandma Xu would prepare a reward for him every time, maybe it was candy or a ballpoint pen.

After his parents divorced, he would always remember to set aside a bowl for him of the fruits and vegetables that often appeared at the door, and even after making braised pork at home.

Such care is very selfless. In those days when I thought I was abandoned by the whole world, there was still such care from the elders.

Su Chengyi held Granny Xu's hand, her eyes a little blurry.

But she smiled kindly and pointed at the window sill for him to look at.

"Plant flowers in this life, and they will be beautiful in the next life."

Su Chengyi's steps were heavy as he went downstairs.

So much so that he didn't understand what the nurse was saying next to him.

When approaching the door, Su Chengyi seemed to be waking up from a dream, suddenly raised his head and asked:

"Can the recuperation plan here be upgraded? How much does the most advanced one cost?"

The nurse was stunned by his question, and it took her a long time to answer:

"Yes, yes, but you still look like a student, right?

Looking at the information is a neighbor relationship?Do you want to upgrade Xu Huiying? "

"Yes."

Su Chengyi nodded.After the formalities were completed, the nurse said that they would gradually start changing rooms and changing nurses tomorrow.

Su Chengyi left the nurse’s contact information for subsequent confirmation.

When we walked to the square, the group of people had almost left, and now there were only a few people left.

The nurse saw this and explained:
"It's dinner time soon, most of them have gone to the cafeteria to eat."

"so."

Su Chengyi stopped asking.

At this time, the setting sun took away the afterglow, and the surrounding lights lit up.

Su Chengyi turned around and took another look at the brightly lit building. His original intention was to see Room 213, but his attention was attracted by the only unlit room on the top floor.

Different from other rooms, this room has a sealed floor-to-ceiling window. The curtains are only opened a little, and a thin figure is standing against the glass.

It looked a little scary at first, as if she was about to fall at any moment.

Su Chengyi couldn't help but take a second look.

At this glance, Su Chengyi suddenly recognized who this figure was based on the light in the room next to him.

His steps suddenly froze in place.

The mysterious silent girl who comes to steal things in the neighborhood.

She is actually in this nursing home?

Su Chengyi suddenly knew where the bread that Granny Xu gave him came from.

This was the brand of bread he prepared for this girl in the milk crate at the door of his house.

Seeing him staring at the position upstairs, the nurse couldn't help but explain:

"Do you think that child is strange? Actually, he's fine, but he doesn't speak.

It doesn't sound like it's autism, people are smart.

I was only six or seven years old when I first came here, and I haven’t had any relatives come to visit me for so many years.”

At this point, the nurse suddenly realized that she had spoken too much and shook her head to stop talking.

"Why is her room different from others?"

Su Chengyi asked casually without turning his eyes.

The girl seemed to recognize him, holding the glass with both hands and looking at him with her eyes open.

"Hey! We don't abuse patients in our hospital. This child didn't know what happened some time ago and kept running out secretly.

I had no choice but to let her live in this room temporarily. "

The nurse was afraid that he might misunderstand something, so she hurriedly explained.

"Yeah. What's her name? Can you tell me?"

The nurse actually had some respect for Su Chengyi. He had just upgraded his annual package without blinking an eye. He must be rich or noble.

Just saying a name should be fine.

After hesitating for a moment, she replied:

"Yu Xia."

Su Chengyi nodded, then put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, turned around and walked out.

Behind him, the girl's pupils gradually darkened like a room without lights on.

The driver at the door waited longer than expected. Just when he was getting impatient, Su Chengyi took out three more bills and put them on the front seat.

This move had a significant effect, and his anger value was reduced to 0 again.

It was even harder to drive on the road in the dark. When we returned to Tang'an City, the night view mode had been turned on in the main city.

An advertisement for the "Idol 101" program was playing on the large LED screen. Su Chengyi watched it carefully for a while, and Chen Jinzhi's face flashed past.

This lens is great for the human eye.

The taxi passed by Qinghe District, and Su Chengyi's destination was not yet home.

I really made appointments with too many people today!

Su Chengyi was actually very tired, and she just felt that she really shouldn't overestimate her energy next time.

The car was parked at the intersection of Olive District. It was around seven or eight o'clock in the evening, which was a busy time.

Most of the people here get off work at this time and are going home in groups from nearby construction sites and other places.

Of course, you might go to a food stall or something like that on the way to eat braised vegetables and drink some wine.

As soon as Su Chengyi got out of the car, he saw a familiar figure among the people moving at the intersection.

After all, it is quite rare for a long thin person like him.

He Wufei lowered his head and stared at the ground. He was always in this floating state, like a monk entering samadhi.

Su Chengyi walked up to him, stretched out his hand and shook it, and then he raised his head belatedly.

"Ah, here you are."

"Why did you just wait here?"

Su Chengyi asked.

"I just came back from the construction site, I thought you would be arriving soon."

He Wufei smiled, took out a can of Sprite from his pocket and handed it to him.

"It was given at the construction site."

Su Chengyi glanced at him and didn't give in. He was indeed a little thirsty.

After opening the Sprite and taking a sip, He Wufei led him towards the alley.

"Have you eaten?"

"not yet."

"Then what should we eat?"

"It's all right."

"Cold noodles?"

"it is good."

As the two of them walked on the road, Su Chengyi noticed that He Wufei was deliberately keeping a distance from him.

He was still wearing clothes from the construction site, which were full of dust and looked like cement dust.

Su Chengyi lowered his eyes. This guy had bronchitis and smoked frequently.

Now I work in a construction site like this again, and I inhale a lot of dust.It is very possible to get pneumoconiosis.

After saying these two words when they met, he had already coughed several times, almost like a walking consumption ghost.

A corner of the white glove was exposed from the pocket, and even then it could be seen that the edge had been frayed.

Su Chengyi reluctantly put her hand on his shoulder.

"Hey, there's ashes on me."

He Wufei avoided it for fear of not being able to catch it.

Sure enough, this is the reason.

"It's not like it can't be washed off."

Su Chengyi didn't care.

Seeing that he persisted, He Wufei sighed and said nothing more.

When they arrived at the cold noodle shop, before He Wufei could say anything, the proprietress turned to the cook and said:

“A serving of vegetarian cold noodles!”

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

He Wufei quickly took two steps forward to stop him.

Only then did the landlady see a young man with good features following behind him.

"Oh, you brought friends here today? Why don't you eat something good?"

He Wufei smiled and replied:

"Yes. Two cold noodles with shredded chicken and two fried eggs. Then a plate of braised pig ears and a bottle of beer."

"okay."

Su Chengyi had never eaten in a small shop like this before, and he didn't know where the signboard was, so he simply followed the arrangement.

The dishes arrived quickly, the braised pig ears were soft and glutinous, and the shredded chicken cold noodles were refreshing and soothing.

He Wufei poured the beer into a plastic cup, raised the glass with a smile and said:

"Congratulations, you are the top scorer in the college entrance examination."

Su Chengyi picked up the Sprite and clinked the glass with him.

"Are you going to report in soon?"

"uh-huh."

Su Chengyi didn't really want to talk about this topic.

He Wufei was originally a member of the key class of No. [-] Middle School. If Xu Zhihan hadn't happened, he would have graduated from a key university by now.

The two ate in silence for a while, and Su Chengyi suddenly asked:
"Let me ask you, He Wufei, have you ever thought about leaving Tang'an City?"

He Wufei was stunned by his question.
He comes from a small fishing village, and Tang'an City is already a big city to him.

If everything went well back then, he might still have some ambitions to see the world, but now.
After a while, he shook his head.

Su Chengyi flattened the finished Sprite can, took out a card from his pocket, and pushed it in front of him.

"Game Design and Production"

This is a promotional card for a training course.

He Wufei looked at Su Chengyi without knowing why.

The latter slowly took another plastic cup and poured the bubbling cold beer into the cup.

"I signed up for this class for you. The total course duration is three months. It is closed and includes food and accommodation.

Of course, whether you go or not is completely voluntary.

Over time, I will set up a game studio.

If you are willing, come to the capital to see me after the course is over. "

After Su Chengyi finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and looked at him levelly.

He Wufei's fingers trembled slightly.

Is there any reason why he doesn't want to?

In the bustling food stall, he seemed to see Xu Zhihan sitting on the empty chair opposite with his chin propped up and a smile on his face.

"He Wufei, look at the world for me."

So he nodded slightly, so subtle that it was almost imperceptible.

Of course, a plastic cup cannot make a crisp, ceremonial sound when touched.

But at this moment, he only felt that his life was already in a pool of stagnant water. Suddenly, because of the collision of the rims of the cups, some waves miraculously arose.
