Walk all the way

I would like to use my hands to break through the haze that blocks the sun for you, so please don't give up and survive.

The rain in summer always comes as soon as it is said. A gust of wind blows by, the sky is covered by dark clouds, and the light dims at a speed visible to the naked eye. In an instant, the ground is completely wet, and after a while, you can see the blisters appear and burst, and burst and burst again.

There is a curtain of water outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel.

"Ah..." Zhou Ruoqing sighed, "It's raining so hard..." She held her chin to melt the lollipop in her mouth.

"Yes." Lu Peitong replied.

Jiang Chuanxu brought four cups of scented tea, and said with a smile, "Can you two have a meaningful chat." Put the tray down.

"Thank you." Lu Peitong said politely.

Zhou Ruoqing took the lollipop out of her mouth, took a cup of tea, and took a sip, "Because it's too boring." Putting down the cup, she stuffed the lollipop back into her mouth.

"You run here every day, do your parents know?" Zhou Tian also rarely opened his mouth to join the chat.

"I should know. Although they don't ask me where I'm going, they should know it. Besides, they still have to go to work, and it's even more boring for me to stay at home alone."

Jiang Chuanxu took out a few swimming tickets from nowhere: "Want to go swimming?"

Zhou Ruoqing picked up one and looked at it, her eyes sparkled: "Isn't this a ticket for the newly opened swimming pool? I heard that the swimming pool has a very good environment."

"Your brother Chengxuan sent it. It's a benefit from the company to the employees, but some people have no interest in swimming, so he collected several."

"Uncle and aunt are so caring to the employees, it makes me want to work in the company of my uncle and aunt."

"After you graduate from graduate school, you can apply for a job."

"No, no, I'm just talking," Zhou Ruoqing said, "I'm a science student, what do I go to a design company for?"

Zhou Tian also looked at his younger sister and shook his head helplessly.Jiang Chuanxu smiled lightly.

"By the way, Pei Tong can also take two of them, so we can go play with friends." Jiang Chuanxu said.

"Ah, thank you shopkeeper." Lu Peitong didn't give in, and took the two tickets from Jiang Chuanxu with a happy face.

The light outside the window suddenly brightened for a moment, and then there was a rumbling sound.

The attention of everyone in the room was attracted, and it fell silent for a moment.

"Did you feel that there were other voices mixed with the thunder just now?" Jiang Chuanxu asked.

"...No..." Zhou Ruoqing was not sure.

"Go out and have a look." Zhou Tian also suggested.

"I'm with you." Jiang Chuanxu's rare expression was a little dignified.

I took two umbrellas and opened the door. Standing at the door, I could feel the water vapor blowing towards my face.The two looked at each other, and Zhou Tian opened his umbrella first and walked under the pouring sky.Jiang Chuanxu didn't hesitate, and walked out with the umbrella.

The two of them took only two steps to understand what happened. There was a small car accident at the entrance of the ancient street.

An electric tricycle braked suddenly on the side of the road. Not far from the car, a girl was sitting on the ground with a pink umbrella lying not far away. Beside the girl, an elderly man in a raincoat was standing There, a little overwhelmed.

"Uncle Sun, what's the matter?" Jiang Chuanxu asked loudly, walking up quickly while walking.

"Well, I don't know what's going on..." The man called Uncle Sun didn't know why, "I just rode my bicycle and walked normally, and this girl suddenly rushed out, so I quickly braked and turned, but I was still hanging on to her. Oh, this, this is really not my fault, she ran over suddenly!" The man was a little excited while talking.

Jiang Chuanxu comforted him and said, "It's okay, Uncle Sun, this is under surveillance, it's okay, calm down."

"It's not his fault, let him go..." The short-haired girl who had been sitting on the ground with her head bowed suddenly spoke.

All three of them were taken aback.

Zhou Tian also squatted down to hold the umbrella for the girl, and saw that the place where the girl was sitting was a little red.

"You're injured," said the tone as usual, "go to the hospital first."

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, intending to make a call, but the girl grabbed his wrist.

"Not going to the hospital..." The girl raised her head and looked at Zhou Tianyi, with a look of despair in her eyes.I don't know if there are tears in the wet body and face.

Zhou Tian had never seen such a hollow expression before, his heart trembled, and he looked up at Jiang Chuanxu who was standing there.

Jiang Chuanxu knew what Zhou Tianyi meant and was asking himself what to do.He forced a hasty smile: "Since you don't want to go, then don't go, but the wound still needs to be treated, you can come to our shop first, it's raining so hard, it won't be good if you catch a cold again."

"..." The girl said nothing.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuanxu continued: "This is a street intersection. You should gamble and block the road in a while. Even if you want to die, don't cause trouble for others." Since persuasion is useless, then be aggressive.

Sure enough, the girl responded to these words: "...OK..."

All three of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yeah, carry her back to the store." Jiang Chuanxu arranged, "And Uncle Sun, you are going to deliver the goods, you go first, come back after delivery, it's not good to delay."

"Okay," Uncle Sun agreed, "Thank you, thank you so much." The gratitude was beyond words, "I'll be back as soon as I finish delivering the things."

"They are all old neighbors on the same street. It should be, you should go."

After Uncle Sun left, Jiang Chuanxu picked up the pink umbrella and Zhou Tian also carried the girl on his back. Jiang Chuanxu held the umbrella for the two and returned to the store.

Zhou Ruoqing and Lu Peitong, who didn't know what happened, were shocked when they saw the three of them coming in.

"This is... what happened...?"

Zhou Tian also put the girl on the sofa, and Jiang Chuanxu put away the umbrella and said, "Peitong, go get two clean bath towels; Ruoqing goes to the study and brings the medicine box. I'll explain to you later."

"Okay!" The two agreed to do it immediately.

Both bath towels were for the young girl, one was draped over her shoulders and the other was placed on her head.

Jiang Chuanxu treated the girl's wound.Zhou Tian also briefly explained the situation to the two of them from a distance away.

"I see..." Zhou Ruoqing said, "I think it's better to call Brother Lin Xun and send someone over."

"I agree with my classmate."

They all lowered their voices, and no one dared to speak loudly.

Zhou Tian also nodded, expressing his agreement, and added: "After the phone call, go make some ginger soup."

"Okay." Zhou Ruoqing nodded, "I'll cook some more, you and brother Chuanxu should also drink some, and you two should change your clothes too, you're both wet a lot."

"Ah."

Seeing that her brother answered, Zhou Ruoqing went to the back to make a phone call.

"Is there anything I can do?" Lu Peitong asked.

"Can you bandage a wound?"

"know a little."

"Then please go and wrap the girl's wound, and we will change our clothes."

"it is good."

Lu Peitong replaced Jiang Chuanxu, and Jiang Chuanxu and Zhou Tianyi went to the back bedroom to change.

Lu Peitong continued to bandage the girl's two falls on her legs, and found that they were actually not serious.Just like when I was a child, running wildly with my friends in the alley, I suddenly tripped over a small stone and fell to the ground, causing similar injuries.

"What's your name?" Lu Peitong tried to communicate with the girl.

"..." The girl lowered her head and said nothing.

"The clothes are all soaked, is it cold?"

"..." The girl still lowered her head without saying a word.

Lu Peitong continued unyieldingly: "Why do you do such a dangerous thing, even if you are only injured, your family members will be worried."

"..." The girl still lowered her head and said nothing, but suddenly there was a drop of water on Lu Peitong's hand.

The girl cried.

Lu Peitong panicked: "Ah, did I hurt you?"

"She is not afraid of death, why would she be afraid of pain." Jiang Chuanxu changed her clothes and came to the side at some point, "Look at her wrist."

Looking at Lu Peitong, the scars left by the failed wrist cut were shocking.

"..." Now it was Lu Peitong's turn to say nothing.

"You wrap her up and go to the kitchen to help your senior sister."

"Um……"

Lu Peitong wrapped up the girl's wound, and obediently went to the kitchen.

Jiang Chuanxu put the clothes in his hand on the rattan table.

"The women's dress I wore when I was in college is clean. You don't mind going to the guest room to change it. If you have a fever, you will have to be sent to the hospital."

"..." The girl finally reacted, looked up at the clothes on the table, hesitated for a moment, and stretched her hand into her arms.

Jiang Chuanxu looked at her and sighed: "I'll take you to the guest room, let's go."

Jiang Chuanxu really took her to the "guest room", not a room for tourists, but a spare room at home, a room for family and friends to stay overnight.

"The door can be locked from the inside. I'll wait for you at the door. Come out after changing it. Don't let me call the police." Contrary to her usual gentle image, there was no smile in her eyes, and there was a little indifference in her words.

The girl entered the room obediently, and closed and locked the door.Jiang Chuanxu breathed a sigh of relief, leaning against the wall, looking up at the ceiling in a daze.

After a few minutes, the girl opened the door with the changed wet clothes and bath towel.

The white cotton half-sleeved shirt and the gray-blue long skirt looked loose when worn by girls. Jiang Chuanxu was thinner than he is now when he was in college.

Seeing the girl came out, Jiang Chuanxu showed a very gentle smile: "It's been a few years ago, it's good that you don't dislike it, after all, I haven't bought any women's clothing since I graduated." He patted the girl's Shoulder, "Let's go down, Ruoqing should have cooked the ginger soup too. Don't mind the attitude just now, if you don't use aggressive methods, I can't bring you to the store."

"..." The girl looked up at Jiang Chuanxu, the despair and emptiness in her eyes disappeared a little.

Jiang Chuanxu saw a glimmer of hope.

"Let's go."

Jiang Chuanxu turned around and was about to go downstairs when a soft voice came from behind him: "Thank you..."

Jiang Chuanxu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, but didn't turn around: "I have to tell them again when I go downstairs."

After drinking the ginger soup, the girl's mood stabilized a lot.

"Can you talk to me?" Jiang Chuanxu asked.

"Hmm..." The girl nodded.

"Why do you want to commit suicide?"

"..." The girl crossed her hands on her lap and said with her head down, "Because it's painful, and being alive is so tiring... No one understands me, maybe people always think I'm cheerful and laughing, but even if I say I'm unhappy and anxious , they all thought I was joking...

The family education is very strict, and the pressure in the third year of high school is also very high... No one believes the troubles I said, anyway, they believe me when I say positive things, and they think I am joking when I say negative things... No one cares...

I told my parents that they just told me not to think too much and just concentrate on my studies... If I talk too much, I'm anxious... I want to go to the hospital, I think I have some depression, but they said that only Only those who are mentally ill will get depression...how can any parent admit that their child is mentally ill...haha...

I try my best to control my emotions, but sometimes I will collapse... I feel that living is so tiring, it is better to die... Anyway, no one will care when I die... I always think so...

After finally passing the college entrance examination, after the scores came out, my parents were cold-faced... How would they know that I am in this state, how can I pass the exam... They don't beat me, they don't scold me, they just ignore me...

I really think it's good to die... When I get to hell, if there is a hell, I will beg the king of hell not to reincarnate, but to be a firewood-burning brat for Po Meng...

I took sleeping pills, but unfortunately it expired, and it has no other effect except diarrhea... I cut my wrist, but I couldn't find an artery, just a little blood... So I took advantage of the rainy day and came to the street with bad vision. Finally, I met you ..."

The girl's tears flowed down, although she spoke intermittently, she was still very organized.

Jiang Chuanxu gave her a tissue.

"If you have the courage to face death, why not use it to face life? People will always tell you to be hopeful, but few people will tell you how to live after hope is lost.

When I was in the third year of junior high school, I also suffered from depression due to some reasons, but it was mild, and it was not to the point of looking for death.

My parents are in design work, and they have to pay attention to the forefront of fashion at any time, so they are relatively open-minded.After they knew about it, they took me to the hospital for examination, prescribed medicine, and assisted with psychological treatment. After about half a year, there was no serious problem, and my senior high school entrance examination was not delayed. "

"Your parents are really reasonable..."

"It has nothing to do with being reasonable, it's just that they are always learning because of the nature of their work, their thoughts can change with the times, and they have a strong tolerance for things."

"You are also very tolerant. If someone else encounters this kind of thing, you won't care..."

"I am a person who really likes to take care of the 'nosy' in the eyes of everyone." Jiang Chuanxu smiled and said, "Girl, you have to go to the hospital."

"But……"

"Listen to me," Jiang Chuanxu interrupted the girl, "a police friend of mine will come over in a while, and he will take you home and have a good talk with your parents. Your parents don't know anything about this, but They will always listen to the words of the police uncle. The problem must be solved, no matter what the method is, you have to try it, right?"

"Hmm..." The girl nodded, "Thank you... May I take the liberty to ask your name and age?"

"My name is Jiang Chuanxu, 'Jiang' from 'Jianghe', 'Chuanxu' from 'Yichuan Tobacco, Full of City Wind Xu'. As for my age, I must be ten years younger than you."

"Are you married……?"

Jiang Chuanxu smiled lightly, and pointed to the ring on his chest: "I'm in control."

"...Excuse me for asking these private questions..."

"It's ok."

The bell on the door rang a familiar voice, and the person who came in was Lin Xun, not wearing a police uniform, but plain clothes.

Jiang Chuanxu talked with Lin Xun for a few words, and then he was about to take the girl away.

Jiang Chuanxu sent the two of them out. The rain had stopped, the sun was shining brightly and dazzlingly, and the air temperature had not been warmed up by the sun. It was the unique refreshment after the rain.

Jiang Chuanxu gave her the girl's umbrella and the changed clothes: "The clothes have been washed, and they are not dry yet. You can go back and dry them. When you are free, send them to me."

"Well, I will definitely send it back." A sweet smile finally appeared on the girl's face.

Watching the two leave, Jiang Chuanxu raised his head and stretched his neck, and found a faint rainbow in the clear sky.

"Rainbow, it's rare..." He squinted and murmured with a smile.

"Fuck..."

Turning around to look, it was Zhou Tianyi standing at the door of the store calling himself.

"came back."

"coming!"

Trotted towards the door, the sun and rainbow were left behind in the sky.

(Written 8 extra episode)

Although Lu Peitong was assigned to help Zhou Ruoqing, there was nothing much to do. After all, making ginger soup was quite easy.

There were only me and my senior sister in the kitchen, and Lu Peitong just stood beside Zhou Ruoqing, watching her stir the pot from time to time.

"Sister, can I ask a question?"

"Ok?"

"If you make a mistake, don't blame me."

"it is good."

"Senior sister's brother and shopkeeper's, are they lovers, or lovers?"

"Yeah," Zhou Ruoqing admitted generously, "Did you just see it? It's been the second year of working part-time here."

Lu Peitong shook her head: "I noticed it a long time ago, but I'm not sure, and I haven't asked."

"I remember you don't reject it."

"Of course, as a rotten girl, how could it be." Lu Peitong smiled, "It's just that, after all, it's the first time I met in life."

"So, any ideas?"

"Well... I feel that their life and the relationship between them have surpassed many couples."

"That's right. After all, it's been 11 years. How should I say it, old couple?"

"11 years? It's been so long..." Lu Peitong couldn't believe it.

"That's right, they've been together since freshman year, and now they're almost 'uncles', so it won't be long."

"..." Lu Peitong was silent.

Zhou Ruoqing glanced at the thoughtful Lu Peitong beside her: "Are you wondering how they did it? Indeed, there is no red book given by the country, no children, just relying on the love for each other. It’s now. It’s strong, but it’s also painful.”

"Is there no gossip?"

"How is it possible? But it would be too out of character for them to give up because of gossip. My parents kicked my brother out of the house because of it. Gossip is nothing."

"Get out of the house...?"

"Well, my parents think the same as most people and don't accept it. Brother Chuanxu's parents are more open-minded. They can have their own home and this hotel. They have given a lot of support."

"That's it..." Lu Peitong said, "Sister, tell me, will the country recognize homosexuality?"

"Anyway, it is not legally recognized now, and it will not be for a certain period of time. Why should the two-child policy be relaxed? The lack of labor is one aspect, and the other is for the elderly. The state does not have so much money to ensure that everyone will be provided by the state when they are old. Pay for it. Although there are couples who don’t want children, if they didn’t work hard to provide for themselves when they were young, when they are middle-aged, when they can still have children, they may think that it is better to have children. Let's have a child, so that we can be guaranteed when we are old. Same-sex marriage cannot produce offspring, it is dead, and surrogacy is not legal. If the country recognizes same-sex marriage, when you are old, you will say, "You agreed to marry at the beginning, now you I am also responsible for my pension. 'What should the country do? To sum up, it is still an economic issue. Those countries that recognize same-sex marriage have a relatively complete welfare system. Our country is still unable to do so, and there is still a long way to go. There is a long way to go. If one person proposes an idea, thousands of people will echo it, and sooner or later it will spread. The key lies in the economic foundation.”

"..." Lu Peitong was silent again, what Zhou Ruoqing said was beyond her imagination.

"What I said was originally what brother Chuan Xu told me. I never thought of such a thing myself. I, as a younger sister, am content to see them both safe and sound." Zhou Ruoqing turned off the fire, "It's cooked, help me fill it up and take it out for them."

"Yeah!" Lu Peitong smiled and nodded.
