Chapter 116 Be obedient and I will wait for you to come back
The breeze brings the dusk and the fragrance of roadside grass.
The smell around the cabin is not very pleasant, but it is indeed familiar.
Zhu Yanshi lived in such a place since he was a child.
The fingers hanging by his side began to tremble at a high frequency. When the other party blurted out the word "be good", the light in his eyes became firm.
It's her.
Only grandma would speak to me in such a tone and address me in such a way.
Isn't this the world in the book?
Why is grandma here?
It felt like my breathing was being held back, my chest was being pressed down by a huge rock, and the space available for the trachea to move was extremely narrow.
The sound of air inhaled and exhaled also becomes gradually sharper.
The young man standing under the setting sun trembled a little. When Wang Qiuju withdrew her hand, he suddenly rushed over and gave her a very strong hug.
"Why……"
Wang Qiuju let out a scream. She was hugged by the young man. The arm around her shoulders was shaking violently. She could not control her emotions and burst out in an instant.
Trembling cries and tears fell on her.
Elderly people are easily emotionally affected. Although she didn't quite understand what was going on, her eyes became red when she heard the boy's suppressed crying.
"My dear... is someone bullying you?"
Tears kept flowing out of Zhu Yanshi's eyes. He hadn't heard anyone say this to him for a long time.
He came into this world alone, was never loved since birth, lived in an extremely harsh environment, and finally met someone who was willing to love him.
Because of powerlessness, that short-lived love quickly disappeared.
Growing up in a muddle, he may have some power, status, and money, but in his long life, no one will ever ask him when he sheds tears -
Did someone bully you?
The psychological defense line that was built with great difficulty broke down at this moment.
After not seeing each other for many years, how could he recognize Wang Qiuju just by meeting her once?
Only the very close people will be placed in the most important position in your heart even if they have been gone for a long time.
At this moment, everything was silent, and the only sound in the air was Zhu Yanshi's violently beating heartbeat.
Time passes slowly, and all emotions need time to calm down.
After Zhu Yanshi finally stopped crying, he withdrew his offensive hand. His eyes were still red, and he lowered his head to stare at the ground. It was a long time before he spoke.
"Grandma, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to offend you just now..."
"…I know."
Wang Qiuju smiled gently, with her eyes slightly curved. Zhu Yan always felt that they were like two bright moons.
"Are you missing your relatives?"
She reached out and patted Zhu Yanshi's arm.
Zhu Yanshi's emotions became very complicated.
He had always had a feeling that coming to this world was unreal. Every character that appeared and every event that happened in it gave him a false feeling, and he felt that he would leave one day.
But at this moment, he suddenly had a wonderful feeling, and he felt a sense of relief in his heart, relieved that he had this opportunity.
He doesn't want to leave.
The person in front of him was like God's compensation for his tragic life experience. Once again, he sent her to his side in another way.
This huge and absurd world, in another way, makes up for his helplessness in his youth.
Now, the opportunity comes again, can he seize it?
Can he make up for the regret deep in his heart?
"Grandma, I have some scrap over there. I'd like to borrow your car. I'll bring it over to you later..."
On the way here, Zhu Yanshi organized his thoughts and wanted to trouble the other party, but the words stuck on his lips and he changed his words.
Wang Qiuju didn't care about what had just happened. When she heard the extremely handsome young man in front of her say this, she felt respected.
In this village, no one would care about an empty-nest elderly person who collects waste all by himself. They would even try their best to create difficulties for those who are worse off than them in order to show their own difference.
Phone number for waste collection on rainy days.
He deliberately led people to a bumpy road, watched the tricycle's wheels sink into the mud, and watched the old man standing there helplessly and helplessly.
Everyone is trying to maximize their own interests, but this young man is different. It is also possible that these young people who have left the village to study are different from the residents of these backward villages.
"How can I ask you to bring it to me? I'll drive with you to pick it up."
Wang Qiuju was very happy. She turned around and went into the house to get the car keys. When she came out, she held Zhu Yanshi's wrist affectionately.
When elderly people who have been lonely for a long time see young people who are well-behaved and constantly showing kindness to them, they will involuntarily speak more and show kindness.
“…My dear, why haven’t I seen you before?”
"My dear...how old are you this year?"
"My goodness, you're still in school and you're already working? The adults at home must be worried, right?"
"Good boy...you are so sensible..."
…
The two of them rode an electric tricycle around the winding roads, laughing and chatting all the way, and the atmosphere between them was very good.
Wang Qiuju liked Zhu Yanshi very much. The child would listen to her very carefully, look at her gently with a pair of eyes that spoke, and patiently answer every question she asked.
He said, "You give me the feeling of my grandmother, but she died when I was very young..."
"Grandma doesn't have any relatives either. If you don't mind, you can come and visit us often."
Wang Qiuju's way of expressing emotions is very direct.
The orange-red sunset covered half the sky, and the golden light was reflected on the country road. Time flowed very slowly in an instant.
Wang Qiuju no longer remembers Zhu Yanshi, and even forgot every little detail of their growing up together.
But her personality has not changed. She is still herself, the soft-hearted and loving Wang Qiuju.
I’d rather not remember those difficult days when I raised a child alone.
Zhu Yanshi thought.
He could feel the wind hitting his face, shattering his momentary sense of unreality.
It's enough that he remembers.
Maybe he didn't know the purpose of coming to this world before, but now, Zhu Yanshi seems to have understood it again...
＊
After finishing all the games, today's live broadcast filming ended early. Everyone leaned back in their chairs exhausted, sitting in front of the wooden house, feeling the refreshing breeze unique to the mountains.
How pleasant.
In this peaceful and quiet atmosphere, Chen Shiyi seemed a little impatient and restless, constantly pacing back and forth in front of the wooden house.
I went over and asked Director Li.
"How long has he been gone?"
“…I feel like he’s been out for two or three hours! Is it dangerous for him to go to that place alone?”
“…I better go look for him!”
Director Li was tortured by these words over and over again for a long time. He reached out and grabbed the other person's arm, stopping Chen Shiyi from rushing out.
He glanced down at the time on his wrist.
"...He was out for less than 40 minutes, how come it's been two or three hours?"
"That place is a bit far to walk to. It takes half an hour to go there, and it takes another 40 to 50 minutes to drive back. If you go to look for it, what if you get lost along the way or miss it? Who will pick you up?"
"I'm worried about him going alone!"
“…Why didn’t you tell me just now?”
Chen Shiyi began to pace back and forth again, took out his cell phone to call someone, but no one answered.
"We live in a society ruled by law now. There are surveillance cameras everywhere. No one can get lost!"
Director Li advised.
As soon as the voice fell, the sound of a tricycle was heard in the distance. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw Zhu Yanshi sitting in the passenger seat of the tricycle.
He was talking to the old man next to him with a smile, and the expression on his face was softer than I had ever seen on his face during all the time they were together.
Even though Zhu Yanshi was gentle before, everyone knew that his gentleness had limits.
But it’s different now. All the sharpness has been subsided and the gentleness has returned.
Being comforted and calm.
Chen Shiyi was like a mad dog locked up at home, anxiously looking for its owner. When the tricycle stopped, he pounced on it with a howl.
When he grabbed Zhu Yanshi's wrist, his tone sounded somewhat pitiful.
"What took you so long?"
"I called you, why didn't you answer?"
"No signal?"
“…I thought you were kidnapped…”
Zhu Yanshi had just gotten out of the car when the other person jumped into his arms. He lowered his head and took out the mobile phone from his pocket and found that there were three or four missed calls on it.
"I might have accidentally muted it..."
"Don't do this again next time! I was so worried!"
Chen Shiyi whispered an instruction.
Zhu Yanshi nodded, turned around and pointed to the pile of waste behind him, and said to Wang Qiuju: "These are it, just take them, it's free."
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, bent down and began to move the waste that was piled up in a mess on the ground.
He didn't mind the dust and oil on the waste at all. He had just grabbed a few cartons when he was stopped by Chen Shiyi.
The other party did not ask him why he took the initiative to help the old man collect his things. He just took the things from his hands and said, "Your hand injury hasn't healed yet. Just move a bench and sit next to him and watch."
After saying that, he began to work tirelessly to put all the things into the old man's tricycle one by one.
They were all young and well-educated children. Others also joined in helping to move things. Wang Qiuju was so moved that she always handed the money wrapped in a plastic bag in her pocket to Zhu Yanshi before leaving.
"I can't ask for it for nothing..."
The old man had his own persistence, and Zhu Yanshi had always known it. After weighing the pros and cons and considering that it was free time in the evening, he greeted the others.
"I'm taking grandma home. I might be back late. If you need anything, call me."
"...Director Li just said that they ordered takeout for dinner today, so they don't have to wait for me."
His voice was low, and he carefully reminded others of some things to pay attention to.
Chen Shiyi originally wanted to go with him, but Zhu Yanshi pulled him aside and explained patiently.
"Grandma might feel bad about confiscating our money. I'll go to her house for a meal later. She'll feel better..."
"But the food the elderly cook might not taste that good, and you might not be used to it. The dining environment is definitely not as good as here..."
That was the end of it. Chen Shiyi didn't say anything else. He really liked this kind of talk. Zhu Yan would explain the reasons to him instead of letting him think about it randomly.
He felt relieved and stopped asking questions. He nodded and added something when the other person turned to leave.
"Then I'll wait for you to come back."
Now he is a very obedient dog.
"good."
Zhu Yanshi showed an exceptionally bright smile on his face against the light, the sunlight danced on his eyelashes, the picture was frozen, and people forgot to breathe.
Chen Shiyi also unconsciously curled his lips like the other person.
It's so strange, when I see Zhu Yan, I feel genuinely happy, and he will be happy too...
