God said I would meet you

"Five hundred a day, going out like flowing water, no matter how much you borrow, you can't stand it."

In the morning, before Zhang Xinli woke up, Lin Jinyu closed the door of the ward tightly, sat alone on the cold bench in the corridor, and chatted with Xu Zhao in the morning breeze: "Is there anything else you can do?"

"I can't help it," Xu Zhao was in a daze. Today, his uncle sent a message for him to go. At this moment, he was about to get up early and go out according to his father's imperial decree: "I only know how to eat, drink, and go back home, old man Don't give me living expenses, let me cultivate my body and mind, and I will give you the remaining two thousand, and I will almost eat fast and chant Buddha."

Lin Jinyu scratched her hair irritably, and said, "Then I'll figure it out on my own...Okay, you can go out, bye."

Medical expenses, living expenses, rent...everything is like a mountain, overwhelming Lin Jinyu. He is very annoying and doesn't know what to do. Classmates, friends, including Zhou Hui and Shihan, everyone who can borrow money He has borrowed all of them.

"Thanks to" the mental state of wanting nothing when he first went to college, after graduation, he lost contact with many of his former buddies. At this time, he suddenly contacted again and asked to borrow money. It is really embarrassing, but Lin Jinyu I still had the cheek to beg one by one, and now no one even begged.

What to do? What to do? What to do……

However, early in the morning, God didn't even give him much time to worry. Before he could agonize for a long time, Lin Jinyu heard a vague human voice coming from the door, as if someone was calling him.

Zhang Xinli should be waking up at this point, Lin Jinyu hastily put away his phone, adjusted his energy, and opened the door to enter.

"What did you do?" Zhang Xinli looked calm.

After the incident, he seems to have accepted the status quo, and he is very cooperative with activities and injections every day.

"Go to the bathroom," Lin Jinyu said while pouring water swiftly, "Why, you miss me after so few minutes?"

Zhang Xinli didn't answer, Lin Jinyu said: "By the way, I will go out to study at night from now on. Lin Ye and Xu Zhao, whoever is free, come over. If you have anything to tell them, don't be polite."

These words sounded familiar, as if Zhang Xinli had said the same thing to Lin Jinyu when he had a broken bone.

"Or come back after eleven o'clock?"

"Well," Lin Jinyu, a master liar, said logically when weaving a lie, "I'm going to put my English aside and concentrate on my professional classes. I'm so exhausted that I might as well just lie here."

Zhang Xinli said lightly, "Yes."

Lin Jinyu couldn't tell from his expression, she thought he believed it, so she went about her own business.

At noon, he went out to buy food, but before he got downstairs, he received a call from a stranger.

The address on the caller ID was in Shanghai. Lin Jinyu picked it up, and before opening her mouth, she said, "You guys bring 5 yuan."

"...Who are you?" Lin Jinyu looked at the caller ID again.

"Don't you remember the person you bumped into?" The opposite said: "Come quickly."

"Oh...wait a moment," Lin Jinyu remembered the phone number he had given to the parents: "...can you come to the first floor to talk if it's convenient for you."

"Why?" The caller was the child's father. His voice was old, showing his exhaustion these days: "We don't want to blackmail you either. It's just medical expenses. We haven't talked to you about compensation yet." After speaking, he sent a MMS over , is the medical bill and the surgery consent form.

Lin Jinyu looked at it and said, "I know, I didn't mean to evade responsibility, and I kept expressing my apologies repeatedly, but..." He thought for a while, and said, "The payment window is on the first floor, let's talk face to face, don't make any noise. Injured rest."

The other side thought about it and agreed.

Lin Jinyu stood at the door and waited for them. After a while, the father came.

The mother probably stayed in the ward to look after the child. The old father who sold cold noodles came to Lin Jinyu and said, "The doctor told us that the operation fee plus other expenses should be 5 yuan. You can pay it yourself. One time." Give it to us, too."

Lin Jinyu didn't have 5 yuan on him, so he said, "Can you... slowly, as you can see, I also need Qianzhi here, and... we are still students, we haven't graduated yet..."

"I would rather not have such a thing, you don't have to pay a penny," the father said, with an attitude of adults communicating with adults, men with men: "Don't say you are a student, even a beast, what do you want us to do?" manage?"

Their family sells cold noodles and breakfast in the streets and alleys. They have to get up at three o'clock in the morning every day and close their stalls late at night. They have no medical insurance and have no choice but to rely on the strength of their small family to fight against accidents.

"I understand, you give me some time, I will find a way."

However, Lin Jinyu is as helpless as he is. They are just two college students who have not yet graduated. His family does not accept him, and his work unit treats him differently because of his "abnormal" orientation. Unfriendly people and things happen one after another. They are all people on the edge of the gray shadow of the bustling city.

"The doctor said, the sooner the surgery is decided, the better," said the cold noodle seller's father, "As soon as possible."

Lin Jinyu repeatedly agreed.

After a long delay, before buying lunch, Lin Jinyu walked out sadly. Before reaching the small stall where she usually buys food, she heard another ringing from her mobile phone, and Xu Zhao sent a message: SOS, I have to remind you, although my uncle It's the leader, but you can't just make a phone call and not see anyone for ten and a half months, and so does he. "

Lin Jinyu stopped scanning the QR code, and replied: What do you mean?

Xu Zhao replied in a second: My uncle is not the only leader, so you understand... Oh, I am so bored, what kind of dog unit, the whole thing, anyway, you'd better find time to go there today, the sooner the better , otherwise it will be difficult to handle, and other leaders may make things difficult for you, so be mentally prepared—my uncle told you to tell me.

That's it, Lin Jinyu understood.

He wasn't very surprised, the unit was not a private enterprise, and it would be difficult for Uncle Xu Zhao to be too outrageous, and it was enough for him to be an outlaw for so long.

Lin Jinyu replied: Got it.

After buying the meal and going back, Zhang Xinli ate quietly. Lin Jinyu looked at the time. It was just afternoon, and the unit should be on lunch break. Now he brought Zhang Xinli's case and rushed over to explain the situation. The head said they were negligent.

Next month is approaching again, and Lin Jinyu received a message reminding him to pay the rent - last time he greeted the landlord and told him to contact him for the rent payment in the future.

"You put it aside after eating, I'll come back later and throw it away." Lin Jinyu turned off the video screen, and said to Zhang Xinli, "You can lift your hands, and you can play with your phone or read a book by yourself. The nurse is very nice, Lin Before Ye Xu Zhao came, he wanted to drink water and call her."

"What are you going to do?" Zhang Xinli looked at him: "How long?"

"Just... the unit has something to do, let me go and ask for leave," Lin Jinyu said with a twist, "I'll definitely be back before dinner."

"Didn't you say last time that the internship is okay?" Zhang Xinli said, "Everything is fine, so I don't have to worry."

"Indeed...very good," Lin Jinyu said, "but formal procedures must be done."

Zhang Xinli asked: "It's been so long, and you're suddenly notified to go through the formalities?"

"Yes," Lin Jinyu answered bravely, "Is it strange?"

He felt that Zhang Xinli didn't quite believe it, and was thinking about what sounded reasonable to say, when he saw Zhang Xinli simply said: "Okay, I see."

...Is this the end?

Lin Jinyu thought to herself: Could it be that the whole person has become docile after being injured, it seems easier to fool than before.

Zhang Xinli was still looking at him with deep eyes. For some reason, Lin Jinyu felt a little nervous—it was a feeling of guilty conscience.He turned around and said, "Then I'm leaving, you... Take care."

The light blue ward door closed slowly, Zhang Xinli raised his hand, and smoothly put the finished box lunch with the plastic bag aside.

……

When Lin Jinyu went to work, the attitude of the leader was exactly as he had imagined. Like countless middle-aged men, they always showed inherent arrogance and disgust towards all the strange, unusual, and deviant things in their ideas.

However, they had to give Uncle Xu Zhao some face. After some highly official exchanges, Lin Jinyu asked Zhang Xinli for leave based on his medical case, and was assured that his internship performance would not be affected.

As for himself, points will be deducted as appropriate in the final assessment.

……

"You can hurry up," Lin Ye urged him to hurry up at the door of the floor at night: "Come back before the agreed meal, is this supper?"

"I can't help it. I'm really too busy. I'm sorry." Going through those procedures is very troublesome. Not to mention the countless chapters to be stamped, the leader had a lot of trouble with him at the beginning. I didn't have time, so I went to work directly.

"Okay, let's go in quickly." Lin Ye finished the task and was about to go downstairs: "He asked a few times, and I said that you are busy reviewing, so you can do it yourself."

The lights in the ward were already turned off, Lin Jinyu thanked him and pushed open the door.

The curtains are open, the moonlight is like a pale yellow puff, the room is quiet, and the child is sleeping.Lin Jinyu walked lightly, wanting to see if Zhang Xinli was asleep.

"Going back?" Under the moonlight by the window, Zhang Xinli looked at him quietly, his dark eyes were like deep pools of water.

"I studied a little longer today, and the road was too far so I didn't come back at night," Lin Jinyu wanted to explain a few words: "I didn't keep the agreement, it's my fault."

"What did you study today?"

Lin Jinyu has been busy all day like a spinning top, and at this moment she is feeling weak and dizzy: "After reading English reading comprehension for a while, you don't know, it can be abnormal, the four options are all right, let you choose the best, it's so damn wrong do not know."

Zhang Xinli remembered that he said before leaving the house that he would put his English aside.

"Go to sleep." Lin Jinyu glanced at the child and said softly, "It will be fine."

It will be fine, he said to Zhang Xinli over and over again, and also said to himself.

The empty bed had already been occupied by the child's parents. Lin Jinyu turned around and was about to go to the corridor to spend the night as before. At this moment, Zhang Xinli suddenly called him to stop, then pulled back the quilt, and said, "Sleeping together."

"..." Lin Jinyu said: "No, it's too strange. This bed is so big that it can only sleep one person. The two girls can still squeeze together, and the two boys...it's too weird. Be careful if it's rumored to be the same."

Zhang Xinli said: "It's okay, it's the same in the first place, you are, and so am I."

"..."

The curtains were drawn, and the temperature in the summer night was just right. On the narrow hospital bed, Lin Jinyu exposed one hand to the outside, face to face with Zhang Xinli, and smelled each other's breath.The sheets were white, and they both seemed to hear the sound of the wind blowing the curtains in the middle school dormitory on the eve of parting that year.

That hug was the end of two periods of youth.

It was late at night, and Lin Jinyu fell into a deep sleep with exhaustion all over his body. Zhang Xinli, who had kept his eyes closed all the time, opened them, sat up slowly, leaned forward, and took out the mobile phone from the pocket of the coat that Lin Jinyu had taken off with his hands that were already able to move.
