Five years have passed since the major world changes that year. During these years, all countries have devoted all their energy to the construction of national infrastructure, so every inch of the destroyed land has gradually regained its vitality.
On the other side, at the Sang family in Jincheng, Sang Chi looked at Sang's mother's bulging pregnant belly and asked worriedly, "Mom, your due date is almost here. Why don't you go to the hospital in advance? Otherwise, I will worry about the little girl in your belly."
"How can you be so sure that I'm pregnant with a little girl?" Sang's mother looked at her son and asked with a smile.
Sang Chi affirmed seriously, "Absolutely, I have a feeling it must be my sister!"
"I like girls too," Sang's mother nodded with a smile, "I hope to give birth to a beautiful little girl."
Mr. Sang, who was sitting next to them, rubbed Mrs. Sang's calf and asked, "Do you have an appointment with your friends today? Are you going out for dinner tonight?"
"Yes, let's wait for them to get off work and make an appointment to have dinner together," Sang Chi nodded.
Father Sang nodded and then ordered, "After you go out to play and eat, go to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities. I will stay at home with your mother. There is no time.
between".
Sang Chi nodded, but then couldn't help but continue, "Mom, I think you should go to the hospital. The due date is almost here, and you might give birth soon. Why are you staying at home?"
"I won't go. I'll go there when the due date comes," Sang's mother curled her lips. "How can the hospital be as comfortable as home?"
Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Sang Chi had no choice but to nod.
But whenever he thought that his parents were both there and his mother could give him another little sister, he couldn't help but feel very happy.
After all, a few years ago, when the world changed, his parents turned into zombies directly, but fortunately, the rain of life that year allowed his parents to become human again.
Otherwise, there would be no happy days of family reunion now. Thinking of this, Sang Chi couldn't help but laugh foolishly.
Sang Chi stayed at home and chatted with his parents for a while, then seeing that it was almost time, he went out to have dinner with his friends.
These good friends all met by chance during the world's upheaval, so they all have a life-and-death friendship.
But the mutation is over, the world is back on track, and everyone's life is gradually getting busier, with everyone either working or studying.
So we can’t be together all day long like we were during the mutation period. Now we don’t see each other very often.
However, although they didn't meet often, their friendship was still very strong. Therefore, when Sang Chi thought about meeting several good friends soon, his heart was filled with joy again.
This time, the place where everyone had a date and dinner was a hot pot restaurant. It was noisy and lively, and the spicy and fresh aroma was right in front of our noses.
Following the waiter's guidance, Sang Chi found a booth and sat down. Then he turned on his phone and sent a message to Lu Ziting.
Sang Chi: [What are you doing? You're so slow.]
The other party responded quickly, and only threw out an Ultraman akimbo emoticon, which was obviously very arrogant, and then replied;
[Don't rush me, I can't hold it in any longer, there's a traffic jam on the road!!]
Sang Chi smiled and replied, "Okay, I got it. I'm sending a message to Huo Shen now. He and Pei Yu haven't arrived yet."
Lu Ziting: [Black question mark face jpg, why are they so slow? Are they stuck in traffic?]
Sang Chi: [I don’t know, let me ask]
After he replied, he wanted to send a message to Huo Shen, but then he thought that he must be driving, so he sent it to Pei Yu.
However, no one responded for a while, so he directly dialed the voice chat. But to his surprise, the person who answered was Huo Shen.
Sang Chi wondered, "Why did you answer Pei Yu's phone?"
Huo Shen seemed to be trying to hold back his laughter and replied, "Pei Yu is driving now, let him drive and practice."
Sang Chi suddenly realized and remembered that Pei Yu had just passed the driving test not long ago.
Thinking of taking the driving test, Sang Chi couldn't help but want to laugh, because Pei Yu, who has always been smart, had a hard time learning to drive. He failed the second subject three times before passing, and Lu Ziting laughed at him for a long time.
However, Sang Chi was also puzzled, because he remembered when he and Pei Yu first met on the Pearl River Bridge during the world upheaval five years ago.
At that time, the thin boy was deftly riding a balance bike and moving quickly through the traffic, as agile as a swallow.
So they are all cars. He is so cool with the balance bike. Who would have thought that getting a driver's license would be so difficult.
Thinking of this, Sang Chi also laughed and replied, "Okay, I understand. You watch Pei Yu practice driving. He is still a novice and can't drive too fast."
Huo Shen also nodded with a muffled smile.
After hanging up the voice call, Sang Chi flipped through the menu and ordered first. He checked a double-flavor hotpot base, and then checked beef balls, fish balls, shrimp balls, tofu puffs, beef and mutton rolls, some corn and vegetables, and other hotpot dishes.
After placing the order, after a while, Lu Ziyun, Lu Ziting, Huo Shen and Pei Yu all entered the hot pot restaurant one after another.
The last time they met was two months ago, but they were already familiar with each other, so there was no awkwardness at all. They skipped the greetings and just sat down and started eating.
The hot aroma wafted upwards, and the numbing and spicy taste burst on the tip of the tongue. Everyone enjoyed it very much.
Lu Ziting took a bite of the beef ball, chewed it a few times and swallowed it. Then, as if he remembered something, he asked, "Do you still remember when was the first time we got together to eat hot pot?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone laughed, obviously remembering it.
Huo Shen smiled and said, "I haven't forgotten. The first time we ate hot pot was after we got off the highway in Yuncheng, and we found a cafe to have a meal."
Sang Chi's eyes sparkled, "At that time, there was a large table filled with all kinds of ingredients, and we ate very well."
"Yes, it tasted delicious," Lu Ziyun took off the glasses from his nose, put them on the table, and nodded with a smile, "So, we haven't forgotten it until now."
Pei Yu, who was always silent, heard this. He looked up at Sang Chi and asked in a low voice, "At that time, we took a photo together with a Polaroid camera. Do you still have it?"
"Of course, I must still have it," Sang Chi raised his eyebrows and nodded. Then he took out his wallet, opened it, and carefully and gently took out the photo from that year.
Polaroid photos cannot actually be preserved for such a long time, but Sang Chi went to a photo studio to have someone process them.
So five years have passed, and this photo is still the same as it was back then.
Several people put down their chopsticks, leaned over and began to look at the photo.
In the photo, Huo Shen was smiling and holding up a coconut drink, making a toast gesture. Lu Ziyun had a smile on his lips and looked relaxed and comfortable.
Lu Ziting, preoccupied with eating, looked adorably silly, holding his bowl with a grain of rice on the corner of his mouth. Sang Chi, with his soft, curly hair and a bright smile showing off his white teeth, was holding a Polaroid camera and taking selfies. A steaming hot pot was on the table.
All of them looked towards the camera, but only Pei Yu in the photo looked a little strange, because he was smiling with his lips pursed, his eyes lowered, looking to the side, as if he was looking at someone.
But there was clearly no one around him, so who was he looking at?
Pei Yu pursed his lips slightly, raised his hand to take the old photo, and his fingertips lightly brushed across the empty space beside him in the photo.
He whispered, "I always feel like I have forgotten very important memories and very important people."
His low voice sounded, and everyone present fell silent, because like Pei Yu, they always felt like they had forgotten something.
But when I try hard to recall, all I can find is nothing. I have no idea what I have forgotten... This makes me feel powerless and sad.
The atmosphere in the air became quiet, and at this moment, Sang Chi's cell phone rang frantically.
After he answered the call, before he could react to who was calling, he heard Sang's father shouting loudly, "Sang Chi! Come to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital quickly, your mother is about to give birth! She's already in the operating room!"
"Oh my god!" Sang Chi was horrified. "I'll be there right away!"
After hanging up the phone, he stood up hurriedly and said, "My mother is about to give birth, I'm going to the hospital now."
After saying that, Sang Chi was about to rush out. Huo Shen and the others stood up without hesitation and said, "Let's go together!"
Sang Chi nodded, then quickly said, "Huo Shen, you drive fast, we will take your car."
During the apocalypse, it was mostly Huo Shen who drove, and he was an excellent driver.
Huo Shen nodded seriously and said, "Okay, I will definitely get us to the hospital as quickly as possible."
Several people hurriedly walked out of the hot pot restaurant and then got into Huo Shen's car.
The car that Lu Ziyun and Lu Ziting drove over was parked in the mall's parking lot first, and they would come back and drive away after they were done.
Huo Shen has always been a steady and fast driver. He just stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward. However, even though he was a great driver, the road was full of cars at this time and was very congested.
So there is no way, we have to spend a little longer on the road.
It would take a while for Sang Chi to get to the hospital, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. He said worriedly, "My mother is now an elderly mother, and I'm scared."
Lu Ziting patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, Auntie will be fine. She will give birth to a little sister or brother for us safely."
Lu Ziyun, who was in the passenger seat, turned his head to look at Sang Chi and said gently, "Don't be too nervous, relax. After passing this congested road, the road will be smooth and we will reach the hospital soon."
Sang Chi nodded and took a few deep breaths. Pei Yu, who was sitting next to him, also patted his back.
After seeing this section of the road, it was just as Lu Ziyun said. Soon the road became smooth. Huo Shen stepped on the accelerator and drove into the hospital quickly and steadily.
After parking the car, Sang Chi rushed out, with Huo Shen, Lu Ziyun and the others following behind him.
The obstetrics and gynecology department was on the third floor. Sang Chi felt that he had to wait in line for the elevator, so he rushed directly into the stairwell. Several people followed him in and ran up the stairs.
Arriving at the door of the operating room, Sang Chi breathed lightly and saw Sang's father sitting in his seat, his face also full of anxiety.
He asked, "How long has my mother been in there?"
Dad Sang took a deep breath and said, "It's been a while. I just asked the nurse when I could come out. She said the delivery time is uncertain and depends on the condition of the pregnant woman, so she doesn't know either."
After hearing this, everyone understood that there was no point in being anxious now, and they could only wait.
But as they waited, everyone became uncontrollably nervous, their hearts practically in their throats.
At that moment, the operating room door was opened from the inside, and a female nurse's voice was heard, "Congratulations, mother and daughter are safe!" The hearts of the young people and Mr. Sang finally settled down.
Immediately afterwards, Huo Shen and the others couldn't help but reach out to take the baby in the cradle from the nurse's hands.
But the baby saw that they were all young people and was worried that they had never held a baby before, so she slightly turned sideways, dodged, and said seriously, "You must have never held one before, you can only watch, you can't touch."
Hearing this, Sang Chi and the others nodded quickly, then leaned over to look at the baby sleeping soundly in the cradle.
She slept soundly with her eyes closed, her features delicate and pretty. When they saw her for the first time, Sang Chi and the others felt instantly satisfied, as if their forgotten memories had returned to them. They felt happy and blessed...
At the same time, they smiled and blurted out a simple and nice name as if they had called it thousands of times.
"Sangsang".
