Xiang Guifan can get out of bed, but he still can't do any strenuous exercise.
He is now like a fine porcelain. It will be damaged if it is knocked or bumped. He needs to be well maintained.
Lin Nanfeng drank a lot of chicken soup from Xiang's mother. In the next few days, he went to Xiang's house every day to help Xiang Guifan with recovery exercises.
Later, he had no problem walking, but it would take time for him to recover his running and jumping.
Because of my mother's work, there are occasional emergencies, so we installed a telephone at home. In the middle of the night that day, the phone suddenly rang.
Lin Nanfeng got up to answer it.
"Go back to Su Province right now. Someone will accompany you to the train station later."
The person on the other end of the phone was Qin Shouguo. His voice sounded very tired and unusually serious.
"What happened?"
Lin Nanfeng was worried. If nothing was wrong, Qin Shouguo wouldn't call at this time.
There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment.
He said solemnly, "Shadow is dead."
Lin Nanfeng held his breath, staring at the window right in front of him with a dark gaze, his heart feeling like it was being viciously grabbed by someone.
After a long while, she held onto her last hope and asked, "Have you verified your identity?"
Qin Shouguo didn't answer directly on the phone, but said solemnly: "Don't wait for your mother. Come back first. A few people in Beijing will go to the train station with you, and they will also come back to see Yingzi off."
Qin Shouguo waited until the person on the other end of the phone said "OK" before hanging up.
In the room, Lin Zhengran didn't see her daughter come back for a long time. When she went out, she saw Nanfeng sitting on the sofa.
The night made her look very small, as if she was completely engulfed in darkness.
From a distance, Lin Zhengran felt the sadness emanating from her daughter, a feeling she had never seen in Nanfeng before.
She was suddenly frightened and stepped forward to ask:
"What happened?"
Lin Nanfeng looked up.
The night was too dark, without any light at all. Lin Zhengran couldn't see his daughter's expression, but he felt her nod slightly, and then shake her head.
There are too many secrets between his daughter and Qin Shouguo, and Lin Zhengran has become accustomed to their occasional silence.
She guessed that the call must be from Qin Shouguo, and something happened in Su Province.
Lin Zhengran wrapped his daughter in a shawl and held her in his arms.
"If you feel really bad, just cry. Mom is here and will always be by your side."
Lin Nanfeng couldn't cry, and he didn't dare to cry.
This road was difficult to walk, and she was a girl. She was afraid that if she showed weakness, her mother would deny her and ask her to turn back.
Lin Nanfeng clenched his fists, lowered his head and bit his lips, a fishy smell spreading in his mouth.
This slight pain was nothing compared to the heart-wrenching pain she was feeling at the moment.
Lin Zhengran felt his daughter's breathing becoming heavier.
Soon, someone knocked on the door and she stood up when she heard the sound.
She recognized the voice outside. She glanced at her daughter, then stood up and went out to open the door.
When Fatty and the others came in again, my daughter came out after changing her clothes.
Upon learning that they were about to return to Su Province, Lin Zhengran felt uneasy and wanted to go with them.
They had originally planned to go back in the next two days, and there was still some work to be done, so it would not be a problem to ask others for help.
Fatty and Xiang Guifan didn't understand what was going on, they just received instructions to set off immediately back to Su Province.
If we ask them to go back at this time, they must know that something has happened.
Looking at Lin Nanfeng's expression again, it was basically confirmed.
The fat man wanted to ask Lin Nanfeng what happened, but was stopped by Xiang Guifan.
Xiang Guifan slowly shook his head at him.
Lin Nanfeng asked Xiang Guifan as if he had just seen him, "Are you alright with coming back with us now?"
Xiang Guifan shook his head and made a gesture.
Compared to himself, he was more worried about her, Xiang Guifan frowned tightly.
They boarded the train at daybreak. It was an express train, but it still took three days and two nights.
As soon as I got out of the train station in Su Province, Qin Shouguo was already waiting outside.
There were several other people with Qin Shouguo, and these people were probably ordered to be recalled just like them.
Lin Zhengran stepped forward and asked solemnly, "What happened?"
Qin Shouguo didn't expect that she would come back with him. He pursed his lips and raised his hand to stroke his wife's shoulder before saying, "The little girl from the Hu family is gone."
As soon as Qin Shouguo finished speaking, Lin Zhengran's face was filled with shock and he staggered back.
As if he had expected her to do this, Qin Shouguo put his arm around her waist in time, turned around and stuffed his wife into the car.
Xiang Guifan and the others did not look surprised because Lin Nanfeng had already told them on the train.
On the way back, everyone in the car was silent.
Lin Nanfeng did not sit with her mother. She didn't even dare to look her in the eye.
Since these people have chosen this path, they have long since become indifferent to life and death, but their families are different.
They are just ordinary people. Faced with separation of life and death, and seeing their loved ones die, they will be afraid and terrified.
She grew up with Aying and went out together, and now Aying is dead.
The mother would empathize, would imagine Aying as herself, would be sad, and even hysterical, so Lin Nanfeng didn't dare to have too many expressions on her face, she couldn't show weakness.
In early spring, the wind and sand in Su Province are so strong that they make people's eyes red.
The weather is bad today. It is a dark sky, windy, and the atmosphere is so depressing that it makes people feel breathless.
When Zhang Aimei saw Lin Nanfeng, she felt like she had found a life-saving straw. She ran forward and pulled her to the coffin, crying:
"Aying, look who's here to see you. Nanfeng is here. You two will go to the movies together later. Mom will give you some money. After the movie, you can go shopping and buy a little skirt. No, buy two identical ones. Didn't you say you wanted to wear a skirt with Nanfeng..."
No part of Hu Ying'an's body was intact, but Qin Shouguo was able to find him back intact. This also proves that China's current strength is getting better day by day.
Lin Nanfeng touched her face with trembling hands. It was so cold. She looked peaceful and calm, but her body was covered with countless knife wounds. How painful must she have been when she was alive!
"Nanfeng!" Zhang Aimei's once proud voice was now hushed to the dust as she pleaded, "Call Ah Ying. She's so close to you, she treats you like a sister. Maybe if you call her, she'll wake up."
Zhang Aimei had no tears, but her eyes were full of signs of near-collapse and madness.
Lin Nanfeng nodded, turned to the person lying in the coffin and said with a sob:
"Aying, we still want to drink together, watch movies together, wear skirts together, and live together in old age. Didn't you promise me that? Our wish hasn't come true yet."
Lin Nanfeng took the white cloth beside him and covered her body, and tears fell on the cloth.
In the blink of an eye, a large area of the cloth was soaked. She lowered her head and said in a low voice:
"You said you would definitely come and see this great world we created together. How could you go back on your word and leave now..."
The people below did not respond to her, and it was even less likely that they would respond.
Zhang Aimei clutched the coffin and said to her daughter in a sad voice, "Aying, Mom was wrong. Come back. Mom will never leave you, and will never abandon you."
"——Aying."
"My Aying——"
Hu Ying'an is dead.
She stopped at the most beautiful age of her life, at the age of 21.
