Chapter 37 Chapter 37 The bride is kidnapped.
As expected, Qin Du curled the corners of his lips.
His expression showed a hint of impatience, but he stretched out his hand straight forward, grabbed Liu Jingheng, and carried her horizontally, not forgetting to bring Penny along.
When he turned around, he saw Qin Mu standing behind him like a mountain. His eyes were wet and there was a hint of coldness in them.
"Let go. Liu Jingheng came back to England with me voluntarily." His voice was very low, like liquid nitrogen.
Liu Jingheng: ???
Where to go back?
Liu Jingheng was lost in thought, Liu Jingheng didn't understand.
He opened his mouth, and the word "right" was about to come out when Qin Du interrupted him in a low voice:
"Shut up."
Liu Jingheng pursed her lips obediently.
"Get your spirits together and prepare for the engagement ceremony this weekend," Qin Du said coldly. "By then, celebrities from all walks of life will be present to witness this grand ceremony."
Liu Jingheng: "Okay."
After the short farce, the plot will continue as normal, but Cheng Yaojin appears when the story is about to end prematurely, adding an extra chapter, which can be regarded as a perfect ending to the cannon fodder's ending.
Qin Du raised his foot and took a step.
With a "snap", Liu Jingheng's wrist was grabbed by someone.
When he looked over, he could only see Qin Mu's lowered head, his vision blocked by scattered hair.
The hand holding his wrist kept tightening, almost crushing his radius.
"let go."
"let go!"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Liu Jingheng opened her mouth and raised her eyes. A tall old man in a Tang suit was standing in the dim light, emitting an irresistible majesty and solemnity.
Qin Mu frowned tightly, with a dark color between his eyebrows, which showed his unwillingness and anger as if he was trying to resist.
The next second, the frail old man strode over, grabbed Qin Mu's collar, raised his big hand with blue veins high, and brought it down heavily.
Everyone heard the loud slap, and Penny was so frightened that she jumped up on the spot.
"Qin Mu! You are a heartless beast!" Old Master Qin was furious, his face flushed red.
Qin Mu's face was hit to the side, as if a slap had shattered his soul and spirit. He stood there in this position for a long time.
The old man pointed at him with his finger trembling with anger:
"Back then, your father tried to steal the company's official seal, but I spared him out of brotherly love and gave him a generous resettlement allowance. This allowed you to live a good life in the UK."
"When you were studying in China, you lived in my house. I treated you like my own child. Ask yourself, what have I ever missed from you? I gave you the best educational resources, and the best food, clothing, and shelter!"
"What did you do to us?"
"Chu Yao has been without parents since he was a child. He finally found a wife. If I hadn't secretly followed Qin Du to find this place, you would probably be on the plane to England. What do you want me to do to explain to Chu Yao's parents?!"
A violent storm hit, and Qin Mu's drooping eyes became blurred.
Liu Jingheng was still listening to the fun.
Um……?
etc?
Qin Mu's father? Isn't that you, old man?
Qin Mu clenched his fists, and blue veins appeared on the back of his hands.
What Mr. Qin said was absolutely right. He was able to achieve what he has today because of the support he received from the old man.
But why is the road to finding true love so difficult, long and arduous?
Qin Du looked at Qin Mu dimly and said softly:
"I can let go of what happened today. If you're still in the country this weekend, you're welcome to attend the engagement ceremony between Liu Jingheng and my nephew."
After saying that, he carried Liu Jingheng and left first, leaving the old man to settle the sins.
In the car.
Liu Jingheng's eyes widened.
Stroke it up.
Qin Mu, the villain in the original text, should be Qin Chuyao's uncle, but his father is someone else.
Mr. Qin, a passerby who was online from the beginning and didn't even deserve a name, but his nephew is Qin Chuyao, and Qin Chuyao is the grandson of Mr. Qin, so Mr. Qin should be Mr. Qin's...
Liu Jingheng counted on her fingers for a long time, and her thoughts were like a ball of yarn that had been played with by a cat, becoming more and more confused the more she sorted them out.
He simply went to the person to verify: "Who are you?"
Qin Du started the car, glanced at Liu Jingheng out of the corner of his eye, and said nothing, as if he didn't want to answer this ignorant and boring question.
Liu Jingheng sought help but to no avail, so she decided to just take action.
He tugged at Qin Du's sleeve: "Who are you?"
Qin Du pushed him away: "Quiet, I'm driving."
Liu Jingheng shut up.
And so, with terrible questions in their hearts, the two of them arrived home.
Qin Du got out of the car and threw the keys to Uncle Li:
"Carry Liu Jingheng in."
Uncle Li went there happily, then hesitated at the car door.
There are differences between men and women, and they should not touch each other.
Then they found four young nannies and put Liu Jingheng in a "bridal sedan" and brought her back to the house.
The nannies finished their task and gathered together to whisper:
"It's over. The Qin family is going to change."
"You also...felt it, right..."
"OK……"
Qin Chuyao was originally happily going downstairs to find something to eat after finishing his game.
When I passed by Liu Jingheng's room, I was stunned.
"Didn't you leave?!"
Liu Jingheng answered the question irrelevantly: "Who are you to your uncle?"
Qin Chuyao: "Are you sick?"
Liu Jingheng continued counting on her fingers.
Qin Chuyao is his uncle, Mr. Qin's...
Who is it???
"No, have you told my uncle what I asked you to say?" Qin Chuyao also stopped acting and had no time to accompany him to compete for the Oscars.
"without."
"As soon as possible. The engagement ceremony is the day after tomorrow. This is your only way out." After saying this, Qin Chuyao went to look for food.
Liu Jingheng looked up at the night sky and took a deep breath.
In fact, he had already sorted out the relationship between these people, but he was subconsciously unwilling to admit it.
He still remembered the name in the original text that made him shudder when he heard it.
Qindu.
It turns out that Mr. Qin’s real name is Qin Du.
Liu Jingheng slowly looked at Penny who was wagging her tail at him and asking for a hug.
It was given to him by Qin Du.
Huh? Weird, did Penny always look like this? Like a three-headed hellhound.
*
At five o'clock in the morning, the sky was dotted with pale spots.
Liu Jingheng tossed and turned all night and baked a basket of pancakes.
"Click." The door opened softly.
A slender figure came slowly in the faint blue light of the early morning.
After searching for ten hours, he seemed to have lost all his strength. When he saw Liu Jingheng on the bed, his body suddenly fell down.
Liu Jingheng narrowed his eyes, and without looking, he could smell the unique scent of piety on the male protagonist.
My hand was gently held by a cold hand, and pulled upwards. The next second, a clearly defined touch fell on my palm.
"The nanny said you're back." Cheng Yunqing's voice was filled with fatigue that could not be concealed, but there was also a hint of relief in it.
"I've been looking for you all night." After the relief, there was a trembling cry.
Liu Jingheng felt very uncomfortable.
Maybe Cheng Yunqing recognized the wrong person? This is not Qin Chuyao's room.
"I'm really scared that you'll leave like this. England is so far away. A direct flight of more than ten hours makes me feel like it's the end of the world that I'll never reach."
"I don't want to be a doctor anymore. I'm so tired. I have to repeat those ignorant questions countless times every day. Every patient is so exhausting."
Cheng Yunqing's voice became louder and louder, and it was obvious that there was an element of catharsis in it.
Liu Jingheng listened quietly and even heard the sound of tears falling. He felt indescribably strange in his heart.
In the quiet early morning, the sound of continuous sniffing could be heard from the room.
Liu Jingheng took out a tissue and handed it over.
Cheng Yunqing was suddenly stunned.
He raised his blurry eyes, and in the mist, he seemed to see Liu Jingheng's usually indifferent face.
He hurriedly took the tissue and lowered his head:
"Sorry, did I wake you up?"
"I didn't sleep." Liu Jingheng rarely rushed out.
He was certain that Cheng Yunqing's heartfelt words were directed at him.
The reason is unknown.
"You can't stop being a doctor," Liu Jingheng said softly, "You have to be a good doctor, helping patients relieve their pain and become a renowned young expert in the country, bringing honor to your family."
This is the ending of the novel. Although it is a bit exaggerated, Cheng Yunqing deserves it.
Cheng Yunqing was silent for a long time, and suddenly laughed out loud with tears in his eyes.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." He lowered his face and gently placed it on Liu Jingheng's palm. "I don't know why, but after hearing you say that, I suddenly feel that being a doctor isn't so painful anymore."
"I will support you." Liu Jingheng said.
As a cannon fodder, he does despicable things, helps the male protagonists grow better behind the scenes, and eventually grows into a man who can stand on his own.
"Thank you." Cheng Yunqing smiled gently and slowly closed his eyes.
The last word became a breathy sound.
This time he didn't open his eyes again. He was too tired. After eighteen hours of high-intensity work, he needed to rest.
Liu Jingheng gently pulled the blanket over Cheng Yunqing and lay back down herself.
*
When Liu Jingheng opened her eyes, Cheng Yunqing was gone.
There was only a note left by Cheng Yunqing:
[I'm going to the hospital. I'll work and study hard today. You should also work hard. ^_^]
Liu Jingheng's gaze was fixed on the words "Come on", and he was visibly thinner.
While he was still dazed, Qin Chuyao came running in and urged him:
"Hurry up and find my uncle. He happens to be on vacation today. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss this shop."
Liu Jingheng shuddered.
For some reason, when he misunderstood that Qin Mu was the villain, he was afraid, but not that afraid. Perhaps it was Qin Mu's innate gentle temperament that made him feel that he would not die so ugly.
But Qin Du...
Liu Jingheng looked at Penny who was still sleeping soundly with her legs spread out.
It was true that Qin Du gave him cats and dogs, but every time he recalled Qin Du's face, he would unconsciously associate it with those strange and terrifying creatures.
He did resent his parents, but he could never take off his parents' oxygen masks with his own hands.
This is the most basic human nature.
Liu Jingheng swallowed and realized that her fingers were very cold and stiff, and it hurt to move them.
After several mental preparations, he clenched his fists:
I am a sinister cannon fodder. For the happiness of the protagonists, if I don’t go to hell, who will? I am ready.
Liu Jingheng went there in her wheelchair and peeked in at the door of Qin Du's room.
Qin Du got up very early. According to the old man's instructions, he had to call the guests to attend the engagement ceremony tomorrow.
I got up at 7 o'clock and haven't solved any of the problems yet.
He was staring at the phone book in a daze. He accidentally raised his eyes and saw something peeking at the door. His eyebrows suddenly raised and his eyes lit up strangely.
He immediately lowered his eyes again, hiding the emotions welling up in his heart, and said in a steady voice:
"Your dress is ready. It will be delivered to you at noon for you to try on."
Liu Jingheng slowly slid her wheelchair in and couldn't help but tap her feet.
"Um, Mr. Qin, I have something to tell you." His voice was tentative.
"No, I'm not interested in listening." Qin Du didn't even raise his head.
Liu Jingheng tapped her toes a little faster:
"Well, if you don't marry me, you have to show me some bed photos..."
Qin Du still refused to give him a look, his voice was cold:
"Speak nicely and don't act like a spoiled child."
Liu Jingheng:?
No, duck.
He cleared his throat, tried to organize his words in his mind, and opened his mouth to say:
"If you don't agree to my marriage, you have to show me the bed."
Qin Du took a deep breath, and his slow voice was filled with chill:
"Tell Qin Chuyao to stop trying to do anything bad to me."
Liu Jingheng didn't understand how Qin Du knew that it was Qin Chuyao who was behind this.
"Get out, you're disturbing me." Qin Du was too lazy to pay attention to him and coldly ordered him to leave.
Liu Jingheng wanted to say something, but a strange desire to survive that she had never felt before suddenly emerged and turned into glue that stuck her mouth shut.
"Yeah." He backed out, backed into the garage and left Qin Du's room.
Liu Jingheng breathed a sigh of relief.
The plan failed.
The engagement ceremony is tomorrow. If I can't come up with a solution, I'll have to say goodbye to the boss properly.
Qin Du was lost in thought at the guest list when he suddenly heard the sound of wheels rubbing against the floor.
When I looked up, Liu Jingheng was sitting there like a sculpture, staring blankly at me.
If it weren't for Penny wagging her tail next to him, he would have thought it was a still picture.
"Anything else?" Qin Du didn't want to pay attention to him, but he decided to pay attention to him and hear what he had to say.
"Well, you told me to level up in the game... but my phone fell into the sea."
Qin Du opened the drawer and took out a brand new iPhone 16 and pushed it over.
Liu Jingheng took the phone and fiddled with it for a long time, but didn't know how to use it.
Qin Du couldn't stand his low IQ any longer, so he snatched the phone from him and asked him what his Apple ID was.
Liu Jingheng didn't know, so she put herself in the original owner's shoes and thought about it briefly, then said:
"Aichuyao1225."
Qin Du was stunned for a moment and sneered.
Different models of Apple phones can also use a universal ID, and all the contents of the original phone can be directly backed up and copied.
After automatically downloading all the software and restoring all the data, Qin Du pushed the phone over:
"go out."
Liu Jingheng said "thank you" and left with the new phone.
By the evening, all the guests had been notified. Qin Du put down his phone and leaned back.
At noon, the old man came to call him and asked him to see the dress Liu Jingheng wore at the engagement ceremony. He said he had no time and no interest in seeing it.
In the hall downstairs, Qin Chuyao roared in desperation, while the old man and Uncle Li surrounded Liu Jingheng and praised her admiringly. The lively atmosphere was in stark contrast to the deserted study.
Qin Du looked at the ceiling, his fingers groping for his phone on the table.
Suddenly, the fingers stopped.
He sat up straight and looked at the cigarette box he had accidentally touched.
The lighter lit the cigarette, making a slight burning sound.
Take a deep breath and exhale slowly.
Surrounded by smoke, he slowly closed his eyes.
Nicotine slightly relieved some of the unexplained irritability.
When I turned my head, it was dark outside the window.
Qin Du took the phone, turned on the screen aimlessly, and then turned it off, over and over again.
He clicked it again and his finger landed on the game icon.
After thinking for a long time, he nodded gently.
Liu Jingheng's game avatar is lit.
As soon as I came online, I received his standard Liu-style greeting:
【Hello. 】
Qin Du: [Hmm]
Liu: [Playing games?]
Qin: [No fight]
Liu: [OK.]
A few minutes later, another message from Liu Jingheng popped up:
【Have you recovered from your injury?】
Qin: [Hmm]
Liu: [I'm sorry, and thank you.]
Qin Du didn't want to respond to this boring conversation.
Just about to quit the game.
Liu Jingheng sent a long string of text messages, seemingly transcribed from voice:
I'm getting engaged tomorrow.
【I feel very strange.】
[The mission is completed, I should be happy, but.]
【Suddenly thought of you. 】
Qin Du's emotionless eyes gradually widened because of the last few words.
His fingers curled up for a long time, then he slowly typed:
【Why】
Liu Jingheng:
[It wasn't sudden, but since the day I found out I was getting engaged, I've been thinking about you all the time.]
Qin Du's Adam's apple slid up and down, and his fingers became more and more tense.
Liu Jingheng sent another message:
[The story is coming to an end. For someone as unintelligent as me, being forgotten is normal. However, I still hold onto a small, unrealistic hope: will you remember me?]
【Even if there is only a little bit of my image.】
Qin Du held the phone for a long, long time.
It turns out that this person can speak normally and occasionally express his feelings.
He looked at the screen. Liu Jingheng's game character was sitting quietly on the sofa in the hall, just like the character's personality - silent, socially anxious, and introverted.
Qin Du still replied:
[I'm very busy and have a lot to deal with every day. I don't have time to recall the scenes of you.]
That's it, offline.
*
The next morning.
Old Master Qin woke up before dawn, happily put on his newly tailored suit, and hired a top stylist to dye his hair black, add some powder, and comb his hair into a youthful look.
Qin Chuyao was arrested with a sad and resentful face.
As for Liu Jingheng, Uncle Li sent him back to his cramped little house in the urban village last night.
According to custom, Qin Chuyao's uncle or uncle-in-law must visit in person at ten o'clock in the morning to complete the ceremony, and then the uncle will pick up Liu Jingheng and take her to the hotel to complete the engagement ceremony under the attention of everyone.
They didn't dare tell Cheng Yunqing about this, and planned to execute it first and report it later.
Anyone with eyes can see Cheng Yunqing's little thoughts about Liu Jingheng. This young man looks so cool and peaceful, and if he is really pushed into a corner, he might just smash the venue.
Cheng Yunqing knew that Liu Jingheng was going to get engaged, but didn't know the exact time, and the whole family kept it a secret from him.
He still doesn't know what it's like and is diligently treating people's teeth in the hospital.
He wanted to be the best dentist, make a lot of money, and buy Liu Jingheng everything she wanted.
Half past nine.
Liu Jingheng was wearing a navy blue suit. The specially tailor-made suit appropriately concealed his overly thin figure, and instead made his waist look slender, which looked very good.
Penny circled around his feet, looking annoyed.
Liu Jingheng couldn't provide his uncle, so Uncle Li took his place as his relative.
Liu Jingheng felt nothing about the engagement and just sat there dozing off like a wooden man.
He was still holding a mobile phone in his hand, and the interface was a game friend dialog box.
He is waiting for the boss's reply.
But it fell on deaf ears.
"Jingjing, we are a family from now on. Don't worry, Young Master Chu Yao won't dare to bully you. Your uncle is here." Uncle Li kept on rambling, but Liu Jingheng didn't hear a word he said.
"Ding Dong——" the doorbell suddenly rang.
Liu Jingheng slowly opened her eyes.
He looked at his phone again, and the dialog box was still stuck on the sentence he had sent: "I'm waiting for my husband's uncle to come."
But as the boss said, he seemed to have no interest in Liu Jingheng's private life.
Or maybe he is really busy.
Liu Jingheng sighed softly and looked at Uncle Li who trotted over to open the door.
Afterwards, a tall man followed behind Uncle Li. He was wearing a black haute couture suit. He had a slender figure, and the suit made his broad shoulders and narrow waist appear. Under the suit was a meticulously fitted snow-white shirt with the buttons buttoned up to the top button.
"Oh, President Qin even dressed up specially today." Uncle Li smiled until all his wrinkles disappeared. "It's time to dress up."
He said this ambiguous sentence again.
After saying that, according to the rules, Uncle Li hurried to pour tea for Qin Du.
Qin Du looked down at Liu Jingheng who was sitting on the sofa.
I still saw the dress that I wasn't interested in yesterday.
From the first moment he saw Liu Jingheng, Qin Du knew he was handsome.
The navy blue suit made his skin look like fresh snow, and the small mole on the tip of his nose was as red as ruby, creating a breathtaking picture.
Qin Du looked away, stretched out his hand, and said as usual:
"Hello, I'm Qin Chuyao's uncle, Qin Du."
Liu Jingheng stood there like a piece of wood for a long time, then slowly reached out and held Qin Du's hand.
His hands were large and slender, with smooth joints, and they were delicate and transparent, the result of being nourished by fine clothes and delicious food.
Holding it in your hand feels like a piece of cool and smooth jade.
Liu Jingheng got goosebumps.
If he had not heard the story of his uncle, he might have appreciated this rare handsome man.
After a hasty handshake, Liu Jingheng immediately retracted her hand.
Qin Du sat symbolically at Liu Jingheng's house for a while, looked at his watch, and said to Uncle Li:
"I'm taking Liu Jingheng to the hotel now. Uncle Li, go back to the Qin family to get your things and hurry over."
Uncle Li nodded, took Liu Jingheng's hand, and coaxed:
"Let's go with uncle, please?"
Liu Jingheng: Where are you going? The mysterious road leading to the underworld?
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Uncle Li nodded with relief, tears streaming down his face.
Liu Jingheng got into the car, and Penny also jumped in consciously.
Seeing Qin Du driving, Penny felt irritated for some reason and made a low gurgling sound in her throat, as if giving a warning.
The car drove through the wide main city avenue and headed towards the hotel.
The car was as quiet as a crematorium. Liu Jingheng tried her best to hold her breath and didn't dare to provoke anyone.
The car stopped at a red light, which was very long. Qin Du put the car in neutral and leaned back.
What should I say? Congratulations to Liu Jingheng for getting what she wanted?
Never mind, he wasn't interested in boring cross-species communication with Liu Jingheng.
Although he was looking straight ahead, his gaze couldn't help but fall on Liu Jingheng.
Liu Jingheng still held her cell phone tightly, glancing down at it from time to time.
Qin Du felt that he did not have the bad habit of peeping, but at this moment he was a little curious about what Liu Jingheng, who had a temperament as calm as a chrysanthemum, was obsessed with at this moment.
His body moved to the right imperceptibly, his eyes falling on Liu Jingheng's cell phone.
The next moment, his eyebrows paused, and after a brief moment of shock, his brows furrowed deeply.
He was waiting for his reply.
Qin Du raised his hand, rested his elbow on the car window, and covered the corner of his lips as if to conceal it.
"Liu Jingheng."
Liu Jingheng was so frightened by the sudden greeting that she almost dropped her phone.
He hugged the phone distressedly: "I'm here."
"Qin Mu returned to England today." Qin Du said lightly.
"Oh..." He didn't want to know.
"I remember he said that the sunset at the airport is a rare poetic scene in a fast-paced city." Qin Du said again.
"Yes..." Qin Mu did say that, and Liu Jingheng had an impression of it.
The red light went off at the last second and the green light came on.
Qin Du stepped on the accelerator cleanly and neatly, and the car ran across the stop line.
The sound of the engine could not drown out Qin Du's voice:
"I want to go and see it."
Liu Jingheng:?
What about me?
The car sped along the main city avenue, and instead of turning where it should have, it drove straight towards the cross-sea bridge ahead.
The end of the bridge connects to the airport.
"Where are we going?" Liu Jingheng asked boldly.
Qin Du pressed the accelerator with his toes, and the warm wind of mid-May blew in through the slightly opened window.
The wind blew his hair, and Qin Du casually hung up the phone call from the old man.
He did not answer Liu Jingheng's question, but followed the huge flow of traffic, speeding towards the unknown future.
*
The car stopped in front of the airport.
Liu Jingheng looked at it for a long time and finally said:
"I don't want to go to England."
Qin Du unbuckled his seat belt and said, "Get out of the car, or I'll send you to northern Myanmar."
Liu Jingheng: This joke is not funny.
He obediently followed and got out of the car, but suddenly remembered that he was a paralyzed person, so he quickly collapsed back in, praying that Qin Du would not see him.
"I'm very curious, which master taught you your superb acting skills?" Qin Du asked without any context.
Liu Jingheng: ...
"Learned from...Wozki Yanjiud."
Qin Du chuckled: "So he's just a charlatan."
Liu Jingheng: "Yes."
"Come down and take a walk. You can fool others, but don't fool yourself." Qin Du said.
Liu Jingheng went down and took two steps honestly.
Afterwards, I realized: “How did you know?”
His disguise was clearly perfect, so perfect that it was indistinguishable from the real thing.
Qin Du didn't respond to him and didn't even look at him.
The first day he met Liu Jingheng, he discovered that Liu Jingheng was a strange person who would not show her mood on her face, but would show it on her feet.
His little feet were shaking so much that he thought ten sewing machines wouldn't be enough for him to step on once he got to the police station.
Now that the secret has been exposed, Liu Jingheng will no longer act.
Recall the Green Tea Quotes, when your scheming is discovered, you should respond like this:
I admit I was wrong. I just wanted my brother to notice me because it must be boring for him to be with her. I just wanted him to find life interesting.
Liu Jingheng read it over and over again, clenched her fists, and opened her mouth:
"Because I..."
“It’s boring.”
Qin Du leaned against the car, and his sight was of layers of clouds floating in the blue sky at noon.
"I see."
Liu Jingheng didn't know what she should do. She observed Qin Du's posture, with his arms folded across his chest, one leg stretched out, and he leaned leisurely against the front of the car.
His movements are as stiff as a puppet.
Time passed by minute by minute, vehicles outside the airport came and went, and everyone was trying to race against time.
The two people leaning on the front of the car and looking at the sky achieved relative stillness among the crowd of people coming and going.
Liu Jingheng glanced at Qin Du quietly. The contours of his profile were meticulously carved, and his slightly raised chin always revealed an innate dignity and awe.
He was still staring at the sky with a focused expression.
Penny enjoyed this environment very much. She curled up at the feet of the two men and stared at the sky with them.
Inside the car, the cell phone that Qin Du placed on the seat lit up for who knows how many times.
The old man on the other end of the phone was furious and started to blame Qin Chuyao, pointing at him and scolding him:
"You are such a grown-up, but you can't even take care of your wife."
Qin Chuyao looked aggrieved on the surface, but he was like a rocket soaring into the sky in his heart.
In ten seconds, I want to hear the great news that Liu Jingheng will return to England with Uncle Qin Mu.
Uncle Li also tried to call Liu Jingheng. His phone was the same as Qin Du's, lying quietly on the passenger seat, lighting up over and over again.
"What's going on? They left earlier than me, so they should have arrived earlier."
Uncle Li had a bad thought in his mind and quickly contacted the Ministry of Transportation to inquire about all the immediate traffic accident information.
More than an hour passed.
Liu Jinghengming opened his mouth, wanting to ask how long they would take to install the sculpture.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
He was not familiar with Qin Du, but he knew him a little bit and knew that he would not get a response even if he asked.
So I simply moved my foot forward and moved my body slightly to relieve the muscle stiffness.
"Go wait in the car." Qin Du's voice came.
Liu Jingheng didn't hesitate to be polite with him: "Okay."
I got in the car obediently and fell asleep in a second holding my phone.
Liu Jingheng didn't sleep well last night and got up early. Now, no matter how busy the traffic and noisy it was outside the window, he felt as if he had fallen into a vacuum environment, which gave him a sense of security.
…
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Liu Jingheng suddenly opened his eyes. After a long, deep breath, he raised his hand and touched the sweat on the tip of his nose.
I was dreaming again.
I dreamed that year a real estate developer came to acquire the welfare home and said he wanted to build it into the largest bathing center in the city.
The director said that if the welfare home is gone, these children will have no home, and there are also children with congenital heart disease who need surgery. Until the funds are raised, the children do not have the physical strength to wander around with him.
The real estate agent said, "I'm acquiring your property, not stealing it. Of course, you'll get what you deserve. With this substantial acquisition fee, you can buy the hospital, not to mention a congenital heart disease hospital, with just a word from you."
This tempting condition put the dean's father in a dilemma.
A group of children gathered together and whispered, their faces full of sorrow:
"Are we going to be driven away? Where will we go next?"
"I heard that I'll be assigned to another welfare home, but I don't want to be separated from you..."
"It's all Liu Jingheng's fault. If he hadn't been holding Dad back, we wouldn't be wondering where we'd wake up in the garbage dump tomorrow."
"I don't understand. He's very pitiful because he's sick, but his parents don't care about him anymore. Why would Dean Dad give up all of us for an outsider?"
Their whispers were like thunder, as if they were deliberately spoken for Liu Jingheng to hear.
That night, nine-year-old Liu Jingheng made an important decision:
He packed up all his belongings - an old faded crocodile toy and two patched clothes, and quietly left the welfare home under the cover of darkness and strong wind.
Wandering aimlessly, Liu Jingheng didn't know where to go.
Until he was discovered by a patrolling policeman and brought back to the police station, Uncle Hat taught him seriously that children should not run away from home because of a temper.
Liu Jingheng's tone was light, mixed with a hint of depth that was not in line with her age:
"I want to find my mother, but I don't know where she is."
Uncle Hat was silent.
This is the simplest question asked by a nine-year-old child, but even if the police have all the abilities, they cannot give a definite answer.
The child could not tell the names of his parents, and the three words "Liu Jingheng" could not be found in the system.
He has forgotten his original surname and only remembers that his mother would call him "Jingjing, Jingjing".
So on the day he was adopted, he gave up his original name and changed his surname to Liu like his father, the dean, and was given the three characters "Liu Jingheng".
Later, the police notified the director's father to come and pick him up. As soon as they met, the director's father hugged him to check if he was injured. The middle-aged man who remained unmoved in the face of the storm burst into tears just because he had been missing for six hours.
Dad said, "Your illness needs to be treated, and the other children won't move."
Later, Liu Jingheng learned that in order to raise money for his surgery, the director's father sold his ancestral home in his hometown, and like them, he became a homeless person.
From that day on, he learned to stop being attached to the world and stop dragging anyone down. Perhaps this was the only thing he could do to repay his father, the dean.
In the silent car, Liu Jingheng rubbed her sleepy eyes, her knuckles wet.
"Woof?" Penny barked happily when she saw he woke up, then jumped into his arms and wagged her tail.
Liu Jingheng came back to her senses and looked out of the car.
The bright sunshine in my memory before going to bed is gone. The earth is painted with a layer of bright orange, the twilight is spreading, and the sky is burning with brilliant clouds. The whole world is so quiet at this moment that you can hear a pin drop.
Liu Jingheng slowly raised her eyes.
At the front of the car, the tall man had his back to him, his straight figure blending into the bloody setting sun, clearly outlining his shape.
A kind of indescribable desolation and beauty.
Liu Jingheng was stunned for a long time before she remembered to check her cell phone.
There were dozens of missed calls from Uncle Li.
For games that you have not exited yet, there will be a small red dot in the friend column.
Liu Jingheng clicked on the red dot, and her pupils suddenly froze.

Qin Du's face was immersed in a gentle orange, concealing a bit of sharpness.
"You sleep well." Qin Du said.
Liu Jingheng: "Yes."
After a while, he opened his mouth again, wanting to tell Qin Du about the troubles he had caused due to his oversleeping, but was interrupted by Qin Du:
"Shut up and look up."
Liu Jingheng raised her head in confusion and followed Qin Du's gaze.
The next second, the pupils suddenly dilated.
The magnificent airport building looks as small as a speck of dust against the backdrop of the mountains and sea. The entire world before our eyes is covered by layers of fiery clouds, which are not just a single orange, but also permeated with the tenderness of violet.
The outline of the mountain was coated with a layer of light and brilliant gold. Liu Jingheng's eyes trembled as she admired the rare treasures bestowed by nature to the world.
At this moment, my heart is quiet and silent.
But he still wanted to ask: "Why take me to watch the sunset?"
Qin Du's sight was attracted by the sunset. After a long while, he whispered:
