Lu Ruorong heard the conversation between Chen Zihan and Huang Xiaojuan just now.
She was a little embarrassed. She didn't expect Chen Zihan's mother to be so sensitive that she could notice this.
When Chen Zihan asked her again, she hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
Chen Zihan looked at Lu Ruorong in surprise, but still handed the phone to her.
"Hello, Auntie. My name is Lv Ruorong, and I'm Zihan's classmate." Lv Ruorong greeted Huang Xiaojuan openly.
Huang Xiaojuan was actually not completely sure that the person who went to Jinling with Chen Zihan was a female classmate.
She was just trying to scare Chen Zihan.
But unexpectedly, there was really a female classmate next to Chen Zihan.
"Hello, classmate Lu, thank you for staying with Zihan!" Huang Xiaojuan's reaction was still very quick. After a moment of hesitation, she immediately replied, "We will arrive in Jinling this afternoon. Let's have dinner together then. This brat brought female classmates out to play and caused trouble outside. Just wait and see how I deal with him."
Lu Ruorong was a little amused, but she still replied politely: "Auntie, although Zihan was a little impulsive in the fight, he did nothing wrong. He's fine now, don't worry. I have classes tomorrow, so I have to go back this afternoon. Next time I have the chance, I'll meet you again and have dinner and chat with you, okay?"
"Oh, why are you so anxious!" Huang Xiaojuan was still unwilling to give up and asked Lu Ruorong to take two more days off to meet with them and have dinner together.
In the end, Chen Zi Han couldn't stand it anymore and snatched the phone back from Lu Ruorong, asking Huang Xiaojuan not to be so unreasonable.
Afterwards, he hung up the phone on his own initiative, citing a bad signal.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong were both a little embarrassed.
"I didn't tell my mom about you." Chen Zihan spread his hands and said innocently, "When he called to ask yesterday, I just said that I was out playing with a classmate."
After a pause, he immediately asked doubtfully, "Could it be that guy Wang Zhenjun who said that? Or Yang Xiaodong?"
Chen Zihan brought Lu Ruorong out to play, and only Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun knew about it.
The two of them shouldn't shout about this.
But if Huang Xiaojuan called Wang Zhenjun to ask, Wang Zhenjun probably wouldn't be able to hide it.
"Forget it, let's not worry about it." Lu Ruorong grabbed Chen Zihan's arm and tilted her head to ask him, "Do you want me to meet your parents?"
"I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed!" Chen Zihan answered honestly, "And I also think now is not the right time for them to see you."
Lu Ruorong lowered his head in thought for a moment, then asked Chen Zihan, "What time will they arrive in Jinling?"
"About half past three."
"My train leaves at four in the afternoon." Lu Ruorong smiled sweetly, "How about I meet them at the station?"
Chen Zihan said vaguely: "We'll see then. Maybe their car will be late, so we won't be able to see them then."
Around 2001, train delays, like flight delays later, were a high-probability event.
Especially for long-distance trains, delays of several hours are common.
Seeing Chen Zihan say this, Lu Ruorong said nothing more.
However, she still prepared for the meeting with Chen Zihan's parents.
After lunch, she took Chen Zihan to a nearby store to buy two gifts, which she planned to give to Chen Yingrong and Huang Xiaojuan when they met.
Lu Ruorong has a very good upbringing and she understands the ways of the world very well.
Seeing that Lu Ruorong had prepared to meet his parents, Chen Zihan was a little amused.
Chen Zihan already had a rough idea of Lu Ruorong's personality.
This is a very intellectual and smart girl, with strong independence, but she usually doesn't show it, giving people a gentle feeling.
But her true character was just like what she showed when she took him to the hospital for a check-up: stubborn and unwilling to be influenced by others.
It is difficult for others to change what she has decided.
Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan also have very unique personalities.
When he thought of this, Chen Zi Han felt a little headache.
Trying to find a balance in front of these girls felt a bit like courting death to him.
After lunch, the two of them strolled around the Presidential Palace for an hour.
Chen Zihan originally wanted to take Lu Ruorong to visit the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Holocaust, but found that there was not enough time and prepared to cancel the trip.
"Let's go for a walk!" Lu Ruorong looked at his watch and said softly to Chen Zihan, "Let's go to the door and pay tribute to the victims."
After thinking about it, Chen Zi Han agreed.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when the two took a taxi to the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Massacre.
You still need to buy a ticket to enter the memorial hall to see the exhibition.
Free admission is available only after March 1, 2004.
This made Chen Zi Han speechless.
Anyway, they didn't have time to go in for a visit, so they just stayed outside for a while.
The weather today is not very good, a bit gloomy.
In this kind of weather, visiting the memorial can really stir up people's emotions.
Standing at the entrance of the memorial hall, looking at everything around them, Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong were silent.
The numbers 1937.12.13 and the other numbers on the stone tablet hurt people's nerves so strongly.
No one could imagine what the people living in Jinling City experienced that winter more than sixty years ago.
Countless people died in accidents.
For the survivors, those were dark days that they could not bear to look back on.
Chen Zihan told Lu Ruorong in a hoarse voice:
After the fall of Nanjing in December 1937, an average of one Chinese person died at the hands of the invaders every twelve seconds.
What does 300,000 casualties mean?
Someone once estimated that if all the victims of the massacre stood together hand in hand, the line would stretch from Jinling to Qiantang, a distance of 320 kilometers.
The total weight of their blood reached 1,200 tons, and their corpses could fill 2,500 train cars!
"'Victims' is by no means a cold number, but a historical tragedy made up of living lives. It is so concrete and so painful." After saying this, Chen Zihan bowed respectfully in the direction of the monument, then silently clasped his hands together and closed his eyes in the direction of the memorial hall.
Like him, Lu Ruorong expressed his remembrance of the victims in his own way.
Afterwards, the two bought a bunch of chrysanthemums from a nearby location and placed them respectfully in front of the monument.
"The fragile annals of history cannot bear the weight of these humiliations. There are some blood and tears that even the passage of time cannot wash away!" As he prepared to leave, Chen Zihan solemnly said to Lu Ruorong, "We must remember that history. All of us should remember this history."
Lu Ruorong nodded seriously. She was impressed by the solemnity and passion that Chen Zihan unconsciously revealed.
She replied softly, "We will never forget this history. We will never surrender, because we are Chinese, and we have long been strong!"
Chen Zihan didn't say anything else, but just held Lu Ruorong's hand tightly.
He believed that the only person who could understand him on these matters related to history was the girl in front of him.
