In An An's eyes, Xu Chengcheng is a heroic girl, full of energy and carefree every day. But the girl in front of her with messy hair, sunken eyes and sallow complexion, is she really the heroic Xu Chengcheng in her memory?
An An's heart skipped a beat, and she asked with concern, "Chengcheng, what's wrong with you?"
"Something happened at home!" Xu Chengcheng held the door, and she felt a little weak. She said listlessly, "Why are you here?" After she finished speaking, she found that An An and Ban Xia were both staring at her.
She finally reacted and slapped her forehead, "Look at my bad memory, I forgot to call you in, come in, the house is a bit messy, don't mind!"
An An looked at Xu Chengcheng's thinner back, her heart felt like it was stabbed by needles, she felt very uncomfortable, she and Banxia looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, but still followed into the house.
The house was no longer just a mess as Xu Chengcheng said, it was a place where there was no place to step, broken glass was everywhere, the same was true for the tables and chairs, they were all tilted here and there, there was no intact place.
An An didn't dare to ask, she silently skipped in the empty space until she was taken to the innermost room, which was a little better, although it was still messy, but at least she could step.
Although An An was brought to the innermost room by Xu Chengcheng, she did not lead An An in directly, but put An An and her friends at the door. She shrugged her shoulders in a generous manner, "You have also seen the current situation of my family." After a pause, she said, "An An, Banxia, my current situation is not good. If possible, I hope you two will pretend that you have never been here. It is best to leave now!"
It is hard to imagine that these words came from the heartless Xu Chengcheng. In An An's impression, this girl just eats and drinks every day and never knows how to worry. However, she has just returned from Shanghai for a short time.
Suddenly, she is like a different person, completely grown up, and knows to consider others. However, this kind of Xu Chengcheng makes An An feel more distressed.
An An's little face was tightly wrapped, and her bright and clear eyes did not show any hesitation, but only full of worry. She called out Xu Chengcheng's full name, "Xu Chengcheng, we are friends!". Just a few short words instantly broke the thread that Xu Chengcheng had been holding tightly for some time. At first, she made a low sob, and in the end, she burst into tears. However, she seemed to be cautious. When she cried, she covered her mouth tightly with her hands, for fear that the sound would be noticed by the people in the room.
An An felt even more upset when she saw Xu Chengcheng like this. Even when Chengcheng's father wanted to send her away in the past, she never cried, and she was not as timid as she was today. But now, it has become like this. An An's heart sank, "What happened?" As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket and carefully wiped Xu Chengcheng 's tears.
Xu Chengcheng sobbed, "I...my mother...will not be long." When she said this, Xu Chengcheng's heart was bleeding! In their family, her mother loved her the most since she was a child.
But now!
But there was no cure, and she could only watch her mother leave. Feeling powerless, Xu Chengcheng felt that she was on the verge of madness every day.
But no, if she went crazy, what would happen to her mother!
Hearing this, An An's heart felt like a huge stone was pressing down on her, heavy and sinking deeply in her chest, as if it would fall off in the next second. She calmed herself down. Cheng Cheng was already panicking, but she couldn't panic. She forced herself to calm down, "Wasn't you fine before? What disease did you get?" Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to die so quickly.
She glanced around the room and found that there was still someone lying on the bed. However, the person was breathing in more than out. She sighed in her heart, closed the door gently, and then lifted up a chair not far away. After placing Xu Chengcheng on the chair, she lowered her voice and said, "You can talk now. Auntie can't hear you."
Xu Chengcheng could have cried loudly before, but she covered her mouth with her hands. It was obvious that she was concerned about the person in the room and didn't want that person to hear her.
Who was the person lying on the bed in the room? It's not hard to guess that it was only Xu Chengcheng's mother.
Xu Chengcheng took the handkerchief from An An, raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes vigorously, took a deep breath, "Thank you An An, Ban Xia!", the only two people who could come to her house at this time, and did not leave after she explained the situation, were these two people.
An An shook her head, "We are friends." It was just a few short words, but Xu Chengcheng, who had experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature in the past few days, completely collapsed. The tears that had stopped fell again, this time it was not a sob, nor a wailing, but the kind of tears that kept falling like beads with a broken string, without any sound, only the subtle sound of tears hitting the ground, if you don't listen carefully, you can't hear it at all.
An An shut up completely. She didn't dare to say anything, for fear of causing Xu Chengcheng's sadness.
After more than ten minutes, Xu Chengcheng seemed to have finally stopped crying, and the handkerchief in her hand was completely useless. She tightly clenched the handkerchief in her palm, twisting it back and forth, knowing that An An and the others had been waiting for her for a long time, and felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Chengcheng organized the words in her mind, and then she said, "My mother has tuberculosis, and it's in the late stage. There is no cure." Now her mother suffers every day she lives.
When Xu Chengcheng said this, his face was calm, as if he was talking about someone else's business, or as if he was saying that the weather was good today, but An An saw the sadness and grief in Xu Chengcheng's eyes.
Hearing the four words "late stage of tuberculosis", An An's heart instantly cooled down. She didn't know how to comfort her good friend. No matter how many words of comfort she had, at this time, they all seemed pale and powerless. She could only step forward silently and give Xu Chengcheng a big hug.
An An hugged Xu Chengcheng tightly with her arms, buried her head in Xu Chengcheng's ear, and whispered, "It will be fine, we will all be fine together!" It was unclear whether she was saying this to encourage Xu Chengcheng or to herself.
Banxia was tall, even three points taller than Xu Chengcheng, and half a head taller than An An. Even if Banxia lost weight, her frame was not small! She held out her big hands and teased them deliberately, "My beautiful girls, come to my arms and I'll keep you warm."
An An and Xu Cheng Cheng couldn't help laughing when Ban Xia teased them.
An An joked, "Hurry up, go to Teacher Zhen's arms!" After An An finished speaking, she wanted to bite off her tongue. She was so angry that she looked at Ban Xia apologetically, but she found that neither Ban Xia nor Xu Cheng Cheng had any special reaction.
An An suddenly had an idea and slapped Xu Chengcheng on the shoulder, "Did you know that Banxia and Teacher Zhen were together?"
Xu Chengcheng glanced at Banxia and stammered, "When I sent my mother to see Mr. Li before, I met Banxia and Teacher Zhen on the way. They were holding hands!" However, at that time, she was only thinking about her sick mother and didn't think about it carefully or say hello.
After she came back, she was busy and couldn't remember it anymore.
After An An said this, she finally understood.
Xu Chengcheng envied, "Banxia, you actually won the top flower in our school, you are really amazing." Teacher Zhen taught foreign languages, and no one liked his class, but in front of him, there were many girls who could resist falling asleep in class even if they didn't understand!
Unexpectedly, the top flower of Teacher Zhen was won by Banxia. Xu Chengcheng was really happy for Banxia.
Banxia bit her lip, blushed and whispered, "It's okay, it's okay!" She said it in her mouth, but she looked so proud. Banxia really liked Teacher Zhen.
When An An saw this, the slight resistance in her heart also disappeared completely. Even if Ban Xia didn't go to college, as long as Teacher Zhen treated Ban Xia well, the two of them could live happily together for the rest of their lives. Compared with going to college, these were not important.
Xu Chengcheng clenched his fist and hit Ban Xia's shoulder, "You got the advantage and still acted like a spoiled child!", still the typical one.
After this interruption, Xu Chengcheng's mood also recovered a lot. She glanced at the messy ground around her expressionlessly.
An An followed Xu Chengcheng's gaze and looked over. She didn't hide it anymore. She pointed at the ground and asked directly, "What's going on?"
Xu Chengcheng stared at the broken glass on the ground and sneered, "My good father personally brought people to smash it. He came once a day and never missed a day!" This is why the house is so messy and why she didn't clean it up. There is no need to do so. In the first few days, she would cry a few times after each smashing. She felt sad and cleaned up the house while crying.
In these few days, she just gave up. Since it has been smashed like this, what's the point of cleaning it up? Anyway, even if it is cleaned up well, it will be smashed to pieces by that beast.
It's better to smash it directly!
"Why?" An An was a little puzzled. After all, this house was also Xu Weibing's home. He really had no reason to destroy his own home! It is said that a night of love is a hundred days of grace. After all, Xu Weibing and Li Jingying had two children and slept in the same bed for so many years. Now Li Jingying is sick. Even if he doesn't like it, he shouldn't
add insult to injury. Xu Chengcheng chuckled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. There was a coldness in his eyes. To An An, that was not the way he talked about his biological father.
An An felt so sorry for Xu Chengcheng. She reached out and held Xu Chengcheng tightly. Her hand was warm, and Xu Chengcheng's hand was cold. They just held each other like this.
Xu Chengcheng felt the warmth. She looked down at the two teachers' clasped hands. The coldness in her eyes slowly dissipated and she became a little warmer. She spoke word by word, "Because Xu Weibing was infected!!"
