restless in the room

In the afternoon and evening, Yu Ji took Wen Changshi to three places.

I saw Wen Changshi hand-planted Metasequoia in a suburban park.

Metasequoia is planted in the center of the park’s claimed forest. It is six years old. It is nearly two stories high. It is surrounded by a wooden fence and a small steel sign is placed on the side. day.

"I can't see it," Yu Ji squatted down, looked at the words on the sign, and turned to Wen Changshidao, "You are so environmentally friendly."

Wen Changshi looked at Metasequoia thoughtfully, but said nothing.

He read all the information that Yu Ji and Zhang Yunzhi could find without scaring the snakes out.

For a few moments, Wen Changshi felt that someone's face was very familiar, and the synapses between neurons would immediately connect, allowing him to retrieve relevant memories from his brain like a normal person.

But most of the time, he gets nothing.

Fortunately, Wen Changshi already knew who attacked him before falling into the sea, but he has not told Yu Ji yet.

After coming out of the park, they walked a short distance and took the cable car to the half-mountain viewing platform in Maoshi. From the viewing platform, they had a panoramic view of the Empress Hotel.

The Empress Hotel is where Wen Changshi made his fortune.

Ten years ago, when Wen Changshi and his mother first arrived in Mao City, they were still unknown outsiders.He bought a strip of land, and the Empress Hotel broke ground.The following year, when Maoshi Gaming opened and Ruishi won a casino operation license, Wen Changshi appeared in the public eye for the first time.

Only half a year later, the Empress Hotel, built along the east coast of Maoshi, opened for business. Ten days of flowing seats, three gaming halls, and eighty gaming tables were set up. There was an endless stream of guests from all over the place, seeking wealth in danger.

More than ten years later, the left wing of the Empress Hotel is being refurbished. The work started before Wen Changshi's accident is now half demolished, and it seems that the work is about to be completed.

There were some tourists on the viewing platform taking pictures, so Yu Ji dragged Wen Changshi to a corner, and asked Wen Changshi to bend down so that he would not be photographed by the tourists.

"No one takes pictures of me," Wen Changshi leaned into Yu Ji's ear and said, "If they want to take pictures, they will also take pictures of you."

Wen Changshi himself was too lazy to wear it, so regardless of Yu Ji's objection, he put a rainbow badge on Yu Ji's hat and sleeve respectively.

Yu Ji looks like a human rights advocacy banner, young people want to look at him more often.

The two stood on the viewing platform for a while, Wen Changshi didn't think of anything, but felt that there were too many people watching Yu Ji, which made him feel uncomfortable, so he dragged Yu Ji away.

Yu Ji looked at the time, and it took less than 10 minutes to come up, so he repeatedly confirmed with Wen Changshi: "You really don't feel familiar?"

"No." Wen Changshi replied with a straight face, pressed Yu Ji's shoulder from behind Yu Ji, and pushed towards the direction of the cable car.

Because he didn't know the situation in Mao City, Yu Ji didn't dare to take Wen Changshi close to Ruishi's group building. He just found an open-air western restaurant with a view of the building in the distance, sat down and ordered something, and looked at the Mao City. The second tallest building in the city.

As dusk approached, Yu Ji took a few sips of coffee, seeing Wen Changshi's expressionless, pensive look, he asked him, "Why are you in a daze?"

After eating half of the main meal, Yu Ji received a call from Zhang Yunzhi.

"Xiao Yu, you go back first." Zhang Yunzhi lowered his voice and spoke to Yu Ji. There was a strange echo in his voice, and it sounded like he was in the bathroom. Go back with the food. No matter how much I persuade you, I won’t listen.”

Yu Ji had no choice but to take Wen Changshi to a taxi and drive back.

When they got to the pier, it was already dark, but it was convenient for them to get on the boat.

Wen Changshi didn't have a crutch for a day, and he was very tired after walking all day. When he went back and changed his clothes, Yu Ji received a text message from Zhang Yunzhi: board the boat.

Yu Ji drove Wen Changshi into the bathroom, messed up his hair in front of the mirror, and asked Wen Changshi, "Does it look like I just woke up?"

Wen Changshi looked at him for a while, then stretched out his hand, rumpled Yu Ji's hair to make it even more messy, and then wrinkled Yu Ji's nightgown a little, before saying, "It looks like it."

Yu Ji carefully closed the bathroom door, walked to the bed, sat for a while, and someone knocked on the door.

"Yu Ji?" Zhu Bailu knocked on the door and softly called his name, "Are you feeling better?"

Yu Ji walked over slowly and opened the door for Zhu Bailu, and said weakly, "I'm a little seasick."

Zhu Bailu was carrying a big restaurant paper bag, showing sympathy, followed Yu Ji into the room, put the food bag on the coffee table, and said to Yu Ji: "I packed some food for you, all of which are good for digestion. s things."

"Thank you," Yu Ji opened the bag, took out a few dishes, and the smell of porridge and snacks wafted out of the box. Yu Ji thanked Zhu Bailu sincerely, and then apologized, "I'm sorry I didn't accompany you today."

Zhu Bailu shook his head, smiled at Yu Ji, and said, "There will be more opportunities in the future."

Before Yu Ji could answer, Zhu Bailu said again: "Didn't Uncle Shao also say that our two families will go on vacation together in September?"

"Really?" Yu Ji had never heard Shao Yinglu talk about it, so he felt strange at this moment, so he asked, "Is there me?"

"Of course." Zhu Bailu blinked and said, "Uncle said there are still your mother and brother."

Yu Ji's face changed, and he said to Zhu Bailu as gently as possible: "But my mother has passed away."

He himself doesn't mind talking about his family affairs, and he doesn't feel much when it is said. The one who really minds is Shao Yinglu.Shao Yinglu always likes to pretend that the family is harmonious and the children are close, and Mrs. Shao seems to treat all Shao Yinglu's children as her own, which will indeed cause a lot of unnecessary misunderstandings.

Although it's not easy to tell Zhu Bai Lu clearly, Yu Ji would definitely not want to go on vacation with those people who lived in the Shao family mansion.

Zhu Bailu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Her family didn't tell her much about Yu Ji's situation. She only thought that Shao Yinglu had too much gossip outside and that Yu Ji had a bad relationship with him, but she didn't know that the original partner in the family was not the real original partner at all.

"I'm sorry," she apologized to Yu Ji, "I..."

"It's okay," Yu Ji interrupted her gently, and said, "I know."

"No wonder you didn't live with them." Zhu Bailu said, remembering when she went to the Yu family's mansion, Mrs. Shao talked about Yu Ji's extraordinarily affectionate appearance, and her heart felt cold for no reason.

"Oh, let's not talk about this," she paused for a few seconds, reached out to open the lid of the porridge, and said, "You haven't eaten anything during the day, have you? Try it quickly. This is my favorite porridge shop in Maoshi , I can’t eat it in Yishi in the past few months, I think about it all day.”

Yu Ji was concerned about the uncle who was locked in the bathroom by him and didn't have enough dinner, and was still wondering if he would turn his face if he ate Wen Changshi first, when his cell phone rang again.He took it out and took a look. It was Shao Yinglu's life assistant.

"Listen to the phone first." Zhu Bailu said empathetically.

Yu Ji picked up the phone, and Assistant Lu said: "Master Yu, Mr. Yu is getting better today. The hospital contacted me and said that he has been clamoring to see you. But you are not in this city. You can see when it is convenient for you. Make a video with him."

Yu Ji was overwhelmed with surprise. He had never video-chatted with his grandfather before, and meeting him was difficult. He immediately agreed, and the two made an appointment. Assistant Lu said he would call Yu Ji in half an hour.

Hearing Yu Ji's reply, Zhu Bailu guessed something, stood up and said, "I won't bother you, you can eat by yourself."

After that, he went out.

Yu Ji released Wen Changshi from the bathroom, pulled him to the tea table, and said happily, "Eat quickly, I'm going to make a video call with my grandpa in a while, so you just sit on the bed and don't speak or make a sound."

Wen Changshi glanced at the food on display, and said blankly, "Eat, I'm not hungry."

"Why aren't you hungry?" Yu Ji was about to make a video call with his grandfather. He was in a good mood. He even thought Wen Changshi was cute. He removed a spoon, picked up a bowl of porridge, walked over to Wen Changshi, and took a spoonful. As if to feed him, "Take a bite, and you will become smarter after eating."

Wen Changshi turned his head sideways, and the plastic spoon was stuck to his lips, which didn't suit him, and there was a discordant sense of humor.

"Eat," Yu Ji coaxed Wen Changshi with a very sweet voice like a child, "Good boy, open your mouth." Wen Changshi stared at Yu Ji for a long time, and Yu Ji was so frightened by his stare that he wanted to put the spoon in his mouth. After taking it back, Wen Changshi really opened his mouth and ate the porridge that was brought to his mouth.

Because Wen Changshi's awkward appearance was really funny, Yu Ji grabbed the spoon and laughed for a long time before saying, "You are so delicious, I'm kidding you."

Yu Ji sat back on the sofa and found that there was only one set of cutlery, so he went to get the metal cutlery from a suite.

Wen Changshi should use it properly, so Yu Ji gave Wen Changshi the metal tableware, and used the used set himself.

Not long after dinner, Assistant Lu's video call came.

Yu Ji quickly picked it up, and Assistant Lu in a neat suit appeared. He was standing in Mr. Yu's room in the nursing home, with half a wheelchair wheel behind him, and the background sound seemed to be the old man's loud and sometimes soft voice.

"Mister," Assistant Lu turned around, and patiently said to the old man in the wheelchair, "Young master is here, look."

He turned the camera a little bit, and Yu Ji saw Mr. Yu's face.

The old man's eyes were wide open, his lips and hands were trembling pathologically, and he was muttering words.Assistant Lu brought the camera closer to Mr. Yu. Yu Ji carefully distinguished and heard what his grandfather said. Grandpa nervously repeated: "Where is Yu Ji, where is Yu Ji, what should I do about Yu Ji."

"Youyi, what about Yu Ji?"

He said to Assistant Lu again: "Ah Lu, show me Yu Ji."

Sitting not far away, Wen Changshi saw Yu Ji's expression change.

"The young master is right here." Assistant Lu squatted beside Mr. Yu and told him.

"Grandpa," Yu Ji called him, and found that his voice was unsteady, so he took a deep breath and said calmly, "I'm here, I'm outside, and I'll see you in a few days."

Mr. Yu looked at the screen, struggling to identify the young man on the screen.

The front camera of the mobile phone stretched Mr. Yu's face that was deformed by Parkinson's and complications even more horribly. His eye sockets were deeply sunken, and saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth. The handkerchief wiped him clean.

Until the end, Mr. Yu did not recognize Yu Ji.

He was arguing to see Yu Ji all day, and even Shao Yinglu let go of the quarrel.But in the end Yu Ji really appeared, and he didn't even recognize him.

Unable to see Yu Ji, Mr. Yu began to swing his hands and feet violently, and slapped heavily on the armrest of the wheelchair. Yu Ji stared blankly at the uncontrollable mess scene, saw the medical staff enter the door, and called his grandfather. A tranquilizer was given.

Assistant Lu took the mobile phone to the corridor of the nursing home and apologized in a businesslike manner.

Yu Ji hadn't recovered yet, nodded numbly, and asked Assistant Lu, "When can I see him again?"

"Perhaps we have to wait for the old man to be more stable," Assistant Lu said conservatively, and he seemed to mention it casually, "By the way, young master, Mr. Shao said that he will go on vacation with Mr. Zhu's family in mid-September. Please kindly Don't forget to spare time in advance, okay?"

Yu Ji was stunned for a moment, his lips moved, and he heard himself say: "Yes."

Yu Ji sat on the sofa for a long time, with his eyes open, but he didn't seem to be able to see what was happening around him. Even Wen Changshi got out of bed and walked over, but Yu Ji didn't notice.

"Yu Ji, are you okay?" Wen Changshi looked down at Yu Ji and asked him expressionlessly.

Yu Ji raised his head, thought for a while, and then said, "All right."

"You..." Wen Changshi seemed to want to ask Yu Ji something, but he held back and did not ask. This is not in line with Wen Changshi's usual style, but Yu Ji is not in the mood to think about it.

Wen Changshi reached out and touched the top of Yu Ji's head. To him, this was probably a soothing gesture.

"Don't cry again today." Wen Changshi whispered.

Yu Ji closed his eyes, unwilling to admit it: "Why are you crying again?"

Wen Changshi didn't take his hand back, nor did he argue with Yu Ji.His hand slid from Yu Ji's hair to his face, and his thumb stroked Yu Ji's trembling eyelashes.

"He still doesn't know me." Yu Ji said suddenly.

Persistent pain is a dull pain, and it will pass after you bear it. The pain of hope and failure is overwhelming, and you want to cry out, but you can’t do it.

Yu Ji moved forward slightly, leaned his head on Wen Changshi's waist, and hugged Wen Changshi.Wen Changshi's hand immediately pressed on Yu Ji's shoulder. Yu Ji knew that Wen Changshi probably didn't like this posture, and wanted to push Yu Ji away, but Yu Ji's heart moved, and he hugged him even tighter.

"You are too ruthless," Yu Ji said with a nasal tone in his voice, eyes closed, "I'm so uncomfortable, why don't you coax me."

After a while, Yu Ji heard Wen Changshi ask him: "How to coax, tell me."

It didn't sound like he felt too irritated because of being too close to Yu Ji.

Yu Ji felt that Wen Changshi seemed to be the same as before, he didn't like physical contact very much, but it was a little worse than before, so he didn't just push him away and say don't touch me.

"That..." Yu Ji wandered for a while, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind, and said to Wen Changshi, "Then you call me Master Sheng."

He let go, looked up at Wen Changshi, and Wen Changshi also looked down at him.

"Are you calling?" Yu Ji pursed his lips and asked Wen Changshi.

Wen Changshi put his hands off Yu Ji's shoulders, squatted in front of Yu Ji with bent legs, looked at Yu Ji at the same level, looked at Yu Ji for a while, and called Yu Ji with a straight face: "Master."
