desolate

As soon as he walked out of the school gate, Zhou Haiyang asked the two people behind him to wait where they were, and drove the car over by himself.

In the end, Li Qiang accepted Zhou Zena's insincere apology, and his parents also said they would not make trouble after collecting the medical bills.

This result is not good, Zhou Ze looked at the road in the distance and was slightly lost in thought.

Until Pei Ye unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and handed it to him: "Remember to write the review for me."

Zhou Ze almost choked: "...Why?!"

Pei also said confidently, "Because I don't know how to do it."

"..."

Zhou Haiyang drove the car in front of the two, and when they got into the car, he rolled down the window and turned his face out of the window.

As an elder, he should now say something educational to Zhou Ze, but after hearing the reason for the whole incident from Director Yan in the afternoon, he didn't know how to speak at this time.

So he said dryly, "Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry." Zhou Ze said, "Can you take us to the Municipal Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital? We want to see a classmate."

"Ah? Oh." Zhou Haiyang immediately turned the car around.

The journey to the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine was very short, so Zhou Ze and Pei Ye got off the car at the gate and went straight to the inpatient department.

And Zhou Haiyang took out his mobile phone again and again in the driver's seat, wanting to make a call or send a text message to Ma Wenjing, but always gave up at the last moment.

I don't know why, but recently he always thinks of Zhou Ze when he was a child. At that time, he was very noisy, often jumping up and down in the yard to make troubles. The neighbors were very annoying, but they would still smile when they saw him.At least, it is different from now.

It's not that he didn't think that maybe because the child grew up, he became sensible...

But unhappy is visible.

In the end, Zhou Haiyang put the phone back.

……

"Are we going to buy some fruit or something?" As soon as he walked into the inpatient department and got on the elevator, Zhou Ze felt something was wrong when he saw that his hands were empty.

"Tsk, even if you buy it, he won't be able to eat it."

"That's different, how can anyone visit a sick person empty-handed?" Zhou Ze pressed the elevator on the first floor instead.

"Forget it, you go in first, I'll go buy it, and smoke a cigarette by the way."

"Eh…!"

The elevator door slowly closed in front of the two of them, and Pei Ye sat back on the first floor alone.

Where there is money, there are people. There are many vendors who buy fruits or health products at the entrance of the inpatient department. It is easy to find and the variety is complete. The only downside is that the prices are inflated.

Pei was also worried that the young master would just spend money here out of trouble, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to come down alone.

In order to attract customers, the vendors shouted endlessly, and Pei Ye seemed to bring his own shielding device, without even looking at it, he went straight to the small alley across the street.

"...Hey! You hit someone!"

In the crowd, a girl complained indistinctly.

There were a lot of people coming and going at the entrance of the hospital, and it was inevitable that they would bump into each other. Pei didn't pay much attention, but he didn't expect that the girl would bump into him in the next second.

It was a middle-aged man who pushed her, wearing an old brown jacket and a fanny pack, with sharp eyes, and when he noticed that Pei Ye was staring at him, he looked away immediately.

"Wait, where's my phone..." The girl next to me muttered again.

Pei Ye sensed something was wrong almost immediately, and reached out to grab the man's satchel.

The man panicked and hugged his bag: "What are you doing!"

Pei Ye pulled hard on his hand: "Mobile phone!"

The man raised his voice: "I didn't steal it!"

The passers-by around were all attracted by them and looked at them in unison.

Pei Ye didn't let go at all: "I didn't say you stole it."

The man choked for a moment, so he had no choice but to try to pull his hand away: "Then let go!"

Pei also called to stop the female student who was still looking for her mobile phone: "Hey, look in his pocket."

The girl raised her head in a daze, and then looked at the middle-aged man who was caught. After recognizing that he was the one who bumped into her not long ago, she walked over boldly.

"I'm sorry, I'll just take a look..." The girl walked to him, and suddenly saw a familiar mobile phone case in the jacket pocket, "My mobile phone!"

Just as the girl was reaching for it, the man suddenly struggled hard and directly broke away from Pei Ye's control.

"……Eh!"

The girl was thrown to the ground by him.

Pei also watched the man run farther and farther, and there was no need to catch up.Fortunately, the stolen mobile phone was firmly in the girl's hands at this time.

That's it, a good day is over.

He didn't care about the girl on the ground, but clapped his hands and continued to stand aside to wait for the red light.

"That... thank you just now!" The girl came over to say thank you after being helped up.

Pei also yawned and nodded in response.

The girl stood next to him, but instead of looking at the traffic lights, she peeked at Pei Ye from time to time.

Pei Ye felt very uncomfortable being peeped at, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

His face was stinky and fierce, the girl was taken aback and shook her head resolutely, but just after Pei Ye thought that the other party had calmed down, the occasional gaze fell on him again.

Pei Ye asked again: "What are you looking at?"

"nothing……!"

The girl lowered her head, and couldn't help raising it after a while, and finally asked cautiously, "Excuse me...do you know Zhou Ze?"

……

In the ward, the overly quiet environment seemed a bit serious and depressing.

Li Pingan was lying on the bed, wrapped in white, and his face was unbelievably white. The only thing that could show that he was still alive was a pair of lifeless eyes.

In order to take care of him, his parents quit their jobs far away and worked hard in the ward all day long.

The hardworking woman cries all day long, with a sad expression on her face, and only occasionally when she faces Li Pingan, can she pull out a few forced smiles.

The old man I met before was not there. It is said that he was worried that the old man would not be able to bear it, so he kept it secret.

"Thank you for coming to see him." Li Ping'an's mother aged a lot overnight, and she didn't have the energy to clean herself up. "He must be very happy."

Zhou Ze nodded politely.

He didn't know whether Li Pingan was happy at this time, but he guessed that it shouldn't be. After all, he put himself in the situation and thought about it. He mustered up the courage to prepare to die, but he didn't die.What was supposed to be settled once and for all, but now he still has to face a crippled body and sad relatives, this kind of mood should be full of despair.

He walked into the ward, surrounded by the smell of disinfectant and alcohol. Li Ping'an's mother tucked him in the quilt by the bed, and then went to fetch water with the water bottle in her arms.

Li Pingan slowly rolled his eyes and looked at Zhou Ze, as if saying hello to him.

Zhou Ze stood in front of the hospital bed without saying a word.

Time went back to a few days ago, Li Pingan's clothes were hung by the branches downstairs after jumping off the building, and the buffer was added before landing, which saved his life.

Although I don't know if I'm lucky.

Not long after, I heard that he was hospitalized, and other people in the class also came to see him. He must no longer want to hear about the school affairs, but at this time Zhou Ze thought about it and found that he had nothing to say.

So after thinking for a long time, Zhou Ze only asked some irrelevant questions.

"Are you still going to school?"

Li Pingan shook his head slightly.

"then you……"

When the words came to his lips, he couldn't say any blessings. He always felt that it was futile. After thinking about it, he said, "...your parents are very worried about you."

——I hope the family can keep him.

However, Li Pingan suddenly called his name in an extremely hoarse voice.

Zhou Ze responded, "What's wrong?"

Li Pingan didn't speak, but slowly looked towards the window.At this moment, finally, there was no longer only despair in his eyes, but fragmentary and hopeful lights appeared in his eyes.

Zhou Ze didn't understand for a while, and just looked at the blue sky with him, but soon, Mother Li came back after fetching water, and brought back dinner for the evening.

It was inconvenient for Zhou Ze to stay any longer, so he left.

When he walked out of the building of the inpatient department and passed the small garden downstairs, he raised his head again, the sky gradually turned dark blue, and the pale moon also floated out. Li Pingan's ward was on the sixth floor, and the windows were not covered by anything , should be able to see the moon exactly.

……

When he received Zhou Ze's call, Pei Ye was walking out of the police station two roads away from the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The two spent a total of ten seconds on the phone. When Zhou Ze arrived in a hurry, he happened to see Chen Xujia and Pei Ye coming out together.

Zhou Ze yelled sullenly, "Pei Ye."

Pei Ye's gaze finally moved from Chen Xujia to Zhou Ze's face: "...ah, you are here."

Zhou Ze strode towards Pei Ye, but the closer he got, the more uneasy he felt, as if he was worried that something would leave him.

He pretended to be calm and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Xujia was not unaware of Zhou Ze's hostility towards her, but the more she was like this, the more she wanted to get closer.

"It's okay, I met a thief, and your friend helped me." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and thanked Pei Ye, "Thank you, I treat you to dinner when I have time."

Pei Ye said: "Then please do it now."

Chen Xujia & Zhou Ze: "...?"

But in the end, Zhou Ze didn't understand why the three of them sat at the same dinner table.

So, taking advantage of the time when the waiter came to change the paper on the baking tray, Zhou Ze pulled Pei Ye to the meat freezer.

He asked: "What's the matter with you?"

Pei also concentrated on picking and picking among the pile of meat: "What's going on, didn't you tell me all the way here, I will do a good deed every day when I see righteousness."

This little word is quite slippery...

Zhou Ze glanced at him wordlessly: "Then you are a good person, why do you want to spend money?"

Pei also said: "I'm not Lei Feng. I pay for doing good deeds—either pay now or owe it."

Zhou Ze said: "...OK, then did she tell you anything?"

Pei also paused, as if thinking of words: "...I said something, but I can't remember."

Zhou Ze frowned, and wanted to ask more questions, but when he turned around, he saw that the other party had already returned with a full tray, so he had to put the matter aside temporarily.

"Are you... As for carrying two plates?" Chen Xujia couldn't help asking when he saw the things in their hands.

"Why..." Zhou Ze was about to put the tray on the table, but when he looked down, he found that he only took one scallop.

He smiled awkwardly, and poured the lone scallop onto Pei Ye's plate.

Chen Xujia said to Pei Ye while arranging the barbecue, "You are so welcome."

At a glance, what he took was all meat, and the only vegetable might be the two Chinese cabbage leaves at the bottom of the meat bowl.

Pei Ye didn't seem to be able to hear it, and while spreading the baking tray to the brim, he kept putting the grilled meat into Zhou Ze's bowl.

"Okay, I can't eat..."

"Look at your arms and legs, eat more."

"It's too boring."

"I eat less meat."

"..."
