Chapter 035: Middle-aged Woman



About ten minutes later, Shen Hongxing came out with a checklist.

Xu Shuangshuang and the other two came over together, "How is it? Did you pass?"

"How can it be so fast? The final medical examination results will only come out in three days!"

The two of them went to the ophthalmology department together again.

The vision test was done quickly, and both my right eye and eyesight were up to standard.

After all the examinations were completed, the officer told Shen Hongxing that if the physical examination went well, the next step would be a visit and investigation, which was the most rigorous political review.

Shen Hongxing was a little worried that he would not pass the political review.

Leaving the hospital, it was not yet eleven o'clock. Cao Hongxia walked out of the hospital and said to Shen Hongxing, "Boss, it's only noon now. Why don't we go to Baiyun Market to buy clothes now?"

Shen Hongxing couldn't bear to pour cold water on her, so she agreed, "Okay, let's go now!"

Several people came to the roadside and waited for more than 20 minutes before a bus came.

"Old man, let's sit here!" Cao Hongxia pulled Shen Hongxing to sit in the last row of seats on the bus.

Chen Jiayi and Xu Shuangshuang sat in front of them.

"Hey, Hongxia, how about we go to the market to buy some vegetables and spare ribs to make hot pot at home after we finish shopping?" Shen Hongxing suddenly had an idea.

Cao Hongxia and Xu Shuangshuang had only heard of hotpot. They heard that rich people would cook mutton and beef slices in copper pots every year.

Never seen it in person.

I have never eaten it.

They asked Shen Hongxing, "Old man, is that thing really delicious?"

"Of course it's delicious. How about this, I'll make you a couple hotpot when I come back tonight!" Shen Hongxing knew that their lives were hard, so it was normal that they had never eaten hotpot!

A middle-aged woman with her turban on her head sitting in the front rows turned her head and looked at them.

Shen Hongxing didn't care.

Cao Hongxia and the others continued talking.

She was surprised to find that the middle-aged man would turn around and look at them from time to time.

The look in his eyes was particularly malicious.

But who exactly is this woman looking at?

she?

Xu Shuangshuang?

Chen Jiayi?

Or Cao Hongxia?

When the middle-aged woman saw that Shen Hongxing had noticed that she had been peeking at them, she quickly turned her head away and no longer looked back at them.

The road is very bumpy.

After a while, Xu Shuangshuang, Chen Jiayi and Cao Hongxia fell into a drowsy sleep.

The middle-aged woman with a hood turned around again and looked at them secretly.

Shen Hongxing always felt that this woman was strange.

She also closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Sure enough, when the woman saw that she had also fallen asleep, she became bolder and simply came over from her chair, walked up to Cao Hongxia and stared at her.

Shen Hongxing quietly opened his eyes a little.

The woman didn't know if she was confirming something. She stared at Cao Hongxia's face, looked left and right, and finally her eyes fell on the ear beside Cao Hongxia.

Shen Hongxing clearly saw two red moles on Cao Hongxia's ears.

As if she had gotten the result, the woman nodded with satisfaction and turned back to her seat.

The bus stops at Baiyun Market.

Shen Hongxing watched the passengers leave the car one after another, and only woke them up when they were the only ones left.

The woman has left.

Cao Hongxia was not hurt either.

Shen Hongxing did not tell Cao Hongxia what happened on the bus.

There was a dazzling array of clothes in the market, all of which were the most fashionable of the time. Cao Hongxia and Xu Shuangshuang seemed to be having a great time, buying and buying non-stop.

Shen Hongxing and Chen Jiayi bought two sets of clothes for replacement and accompanied them shopping.

Until the evening, several people came out of Baiyun Market carrying bags of things.

Shen Hongxing took them to the vegetable market again.

Bought a copper hot pot.

Spare ribs, beef rolls, lamb rolls, and lots of vegetables and spices.

When I got home, it was almost dark.

Shen Hongxing then told Cao Hongxia what happened on the bus, "Hongxia, when we went to Baiyun Market, a girl on the bus kept staring at you!"

Cao Hongxia didn't take it seriously and smiled, "Woman? What kind of woman?"

"A middle-aged woman wearing a hood!"

What?

A middle-aged woman wearing a hood?

The smile on Cao Hongxia's face disappeared instantly. Her whole body seemed to be frightened. Her legs went limp and she fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Shen Hongxing hugged her in time.

"Hongxia, what's wrong with you?"

Cao Hongxia forced herself to stand up, "It's okay, it's okay!"

The thought kept lingering in my mind: could the woman wearing a hood on the bus be that woman?

In my memory, that girl loved wearing a headpiece the most.

But she quickly rejected the idea.

Impossible.

The girl's family lived in a remote mountain village, how could she possibly come to Chaoyang?

She was overthinking it.

Besides, if that woman really found her, how could she let her go like this? It's definitely not that woman.

right!

That's it.

Besides, she had changed her name a long time ago, and after so many years, how could that woman still recognize her?

Shen Hongxing kept asking, "Hongxia, do you know that girl?"

Cao Hongxia didn't want to make Shen Hongxing worry, so she turned around and gave her a cute smile, "Old lady, how is it possible? How could you possibly know that woman!"

Shen Hongxing didn't believe it.

Cao Hongxia's reaction just now told her that she knew him.

She remembered that Cao Hongxia was going to die this year in her previous life, and her head tightened. Could Cao Hongxia's death be related to the woman on the bus?

no!

She must know who that woman is and her relationship with Cao Hongxia.

Only in this way can Cao Hongxia be saved.

I will never let her die in vain at such a young age again.

She coaxed Cao Hongxia, "Hongxia, we are best friends now. Only if you tell us those things can I help you get out of the nightmare!"

During the days she lived here, she found that Cao Hongxia had nightmares every night and woke up crying every time.

When they were playing together, Cao Hongxia often sat in a daze.

Shen Hongxing had a hunch that the nightmare was most likely Cao Hongxia's death warrant.

"Yes, Hongxia, no matter what happens, we will help you. Don't carry it alone, okay?" Chen Jiayi and Xu Shuangshuang hugged Cao Hongxia.

I want to give her a sense of security.

When I hugged her, I found that Cao Hongxia was trembling all over.

"Don't be afraid, we are here!"

Xu Shuangshuang patted her on the back.

"놖..." Cao Hongxia couldn't finish the words.

Tears flowed silently.

Seeing this, no one dared to ask any more questions. "Okay, stop crying. If you don't want to talk, don't talk. We won't force you! Just remember, no matter what happens, we will protect you at all costs!"

"Old man, Shuangjie, ..."

Shen Hongxing waved the dish in her hand towards her and said, "If you have nothing else to do, I'll teach you how to make hot pot!"

Cao Hongxia wiped away her tears and nodded, "Okay, you teach me how to do it!"

Several people divided the work.

A folding dish.

One to wash the vegetables.

One is responsible for making fire.

Shen Hongxing is responsible for frying the spices.

After a while, a fragrant aroma wafted from the simple kitchen.
