Dating After Divorce - Chapter 59
The words in my ears continued.
Luo Zhen’s heart is also hurting more and more.
“Xiao Ning’s right ear can hear the sound, but there seems to be something wrong.”
“Sometimes there are many customers eating, and the sound in the store is loud, and I can always see her right ear hurts.”
“I also want to transfer her to the back kitchen, but her situation is really difficult to handle.”
“Hey……”
Another sigh came.
Luo Zhen’s head was blank for a moment.
Her body seemed to be covered by ice and snow, and the oozing coldness penetrated into the flesh, along the blood, and rushed straight to the limbs. The two arms hanging by her side, unconsciously, were in the bone-chilling cold air. Trembling.
For no reason, she remembered the first time she came to Xiangchaxuan to find Ning Rou.
At that time, she also asked the proprietress if Ning Rou was married.
The answer given by the proprietress was no, and she also said that under Ning Rou’s conditions, it was not easy to find another partner.
Ning Rou’s condition? under what conditions?
Luo Zhen always thought that the so-called ‘bad conditions’ meant that Ning Rou was illiterate, had no education, and was married once.
It wasn’t until now that she realized that the sentence was actually implying—
Ning Rou is deaf in her left ear and sick in her right ear. In the eyes of most people, this is undoubtedly equivalent to a disability.
A disabled single mother with a daughter who has a heart attack and is not even four years old, how can anyone consider marrying such a person?
As if awakened from a beautiful dream, Luo Zhen’s palms were full of cold sweat.
She couldn’t believe it.
How could she believe it?
After reuniting with Ning Rou, Ning Rou never told her about her ears.
Her heart was sore and painful, her two thin lips moved unconsciously, and every breath was filled with severe pain like tearing skin and bones.
Even on that autumn night when she was seventeen, when she fell alone in a pool of blood in the stairwell, she had never been so desperate as at this moment.
Desperate, tears welled up in her eyes, but she herself was unaware.
How much has Ning Rou suffered in the past five years?
Thinking of the painkillers at home, the unanswered calls under the moon, her chest was so heavy that it was hard to breathe.
Painful and uncomfortable.
It was daytime, but the light in the room was extremely dim.
Luo Zhen’s face was pale, lined with red on his lips, and he couldn’t see any blood.
There were a lot of things she wanted to ask hidden in her throat, but after a few minutes, she was still quietly stomping on the spot, and those thin lips that were tightly pressed did not even loosen.
The surroundings were shrouded in darkness, and the proprietress didn’t notice that Luo Zhen’s eyes were red, and she didn’t know what the words she just said meant to Luo Zhen.
“I also often persuade Xiaoning to go to the hospital to see a doctor, but she always finds excuses to say no.”
“You’re her friend and you’re so nice to her, I think if you talk to her, she’ll listen.”
Luo Zhen had read all of Ning Rou’s medical records in the past five years, and none of them had anything to do with her ears.
This is enough to show that Ning Rou has never gone to the hospital to treat her ears.
Realizing this, her eyes turned even redder.
The self-control that she was proud of, crumbled into a pile of useless sand in silence.
She couldn’t control her emotions, and she couldn’t ignore the grief in her heart. The moment she released her lips, the long-suppressed pain in her throat was like a flood of unloading gates. With a huge grief, it slammed out of her heart. come out.
Even the voice was full of sadness.
“Did she say, what’s wrong with the ear?”
A simple question took all Luo Zhen’s strength.
She didn’t want to ask, but had to.
Ning Soft is simple and never lies. When he came to the tea restaurant for an interview, he explained his own situation.
It is precisely because of this reason that the lady boss loves her and takes care of her so much.
When it comes to the cause of her ear disease, the sympathy in the boss’s eyes is a little more.
“I heard from her that it was because the postpartum fever was not treated in time that the ear was burned out.”
A word full of regrets, the effect is comparable to the thundering thunder that fell on the ground, and it exploded in Luo Zhen’s ear, completely destroying her world.
She thought of countless possibilities in her mind, but she alone did not guess that this would be the reason—
Ning Rou had a fever after giving birth, no one took care of her, she had no money, and she didn’t dare to go to the hospital. Just like that, she burned her ears alive.
No wonder, no wonder Ning Rou is so afraid of fever, every time there is a little sign of fever, she will immediately buy antipyretics.
Luo Zhen’s head was about to burst with pain, the buzzing in his ears kept ringing, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
At this moment, she didn’t even dare to think about how Ning Rou survived.
The pain on her face was so obvious that even the proprietress could see that something was wrong.
“Miss Luo, are you okay?”
Luo Zhen’s throat moved slightly, and after a long time, he shook his head and replied softly.
“I’m fine.”
“Thank you for telling me this, I will take Rou Rou to the hospital to see a doctor.”
“We just had a conversation, please don’t tell her, can you?”
Very sincere request.
The proprietress agreed without much thought.
It was just eleven o’clock when I came out of the tea restaurant.
The sun in the sky is so big, but Ke Luo’s heart is so cold.
She stood alone on the side of the road, under the scorching sun, for half an hour in despair.
It wasn’t until the whole body’s flesh began to heat and ache, that he finally covered his face and cried silently.
***
Working in a sugar shop is much easier than working in a tea restaurant.
Compared with Jiang Rong, Song Fu said a lot less.
Her character is more stable and attentive. She can easily find out when Ning Rou needs help, and she can always lend a helping hand in a timely manner to solve problems for Ning Rou.
The two have only been together for one morning, and the relationship has become much closer.
Because it is the first time to work, the two have to stay in the store for a full day, and they cannot leave in the middle.
One to two o’clock in the afternoon is the time for lunch break.
Song Fu sat at the counter to rest, while Ning Rou stood alone in front of the store.
It looks like it’s waiting for someone.
But until two o’clock, no one came in.
Didn’t you say that you will come to see yourself at noon?
Ning Rou’s hand was placed on the glass door, her brows furrowed unconsciously.
It’s only been one morning, and she has already started to miss Luo Zhen.
She rarely called Luo Zhen, but at this moment, she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and pressed the number marked as [1] in the address book.
The string of numbers that represented Luo Zhen and had already been memorized by her heart.
Unfortunately, the phone did not connect.
The beep sounded for ten seconds, but no one answered.
Ning Rou released the phone from her ear, stared at the phone screen, and soon made another call.
However, still no response.
Luo Zhen wouldn’t answer her call, what happened?
Company accident? Or is something wrong with the Luo family?
Ning Rou was a little worried, but she didn’t know what to do.
Her heart was a little chaotic and a little scared.
Afraid that Luo Zhen would have an accident, and that Luo Zhen would just leave him like this.
This feeling is very tormenting, like walking on a tightrope at an altitude of several kilometers, even my heart is hanging tightly, and there is no moment to relax.
It turned out that it would be so uncomfortable to be left behind in silence.
Thinking that during those five years, Luo Zhen spent every day in such pain and suffering, the guilt in Ning Rou’s heart suddenly became stronger.
She wanted to make amends, but didn’t know how to make amends.
It’s like a child who accidentally broke a vase, looking at the debris scattered all over the floor, but even picking it up, he doesn’t know where to start picking it up.
When I was feeling remorse in my heart, there was a vibration from the phone.
Ning Rou looked back and found that Luo Zhen was calling, and immediately pressed the answer button.
“Alo~”
She didn’t ask anything, just called ‘Alo’.
The woman on the other end of the phone heard the soft call, and was silent for a minute or two, before releasing her lips and whispering “um”.
“The company has something to do, so I didn’t see you at noon.”
Luo Zhen’s voice was normal, and his tone was calm as usual.
Ning Rou didn’t notice anything unusual.
Being able to hear Luo Zhen’s voice was enough to make her heart calm down from the unease.
“Company matters.”
“I’m here, everything is fine, the master treats me very well, and Xiao Song treats me very well, you don’t have to worry about me.”
It’s still a soft, soft voice, and Luo Zhen’s heart hurts when he hears it.
She wanted to say something, but didn’t know what to say.
Before she knew it, her throat was clogged with sourness, which made her heart burst into tears again.
She never knew that she was such a cowardly person.
At this moment, he was clearly standing not far from the Tangshui shop, but he didn’t even have the courage to enter the shop to look at Ning Rou.
She feels pain.
Not even able to speak.
Ning Rou still didn’t realize that Luo was really different from this long period of dullness.
The look on her face was relaxed, and there was a hint of joy and expectation in her voice.
She misses Luo Zhen.
She wants to see Luo Zhen.
“Can you come tonight?”
“We can go and pick up the baby from school together.”
It was rare to hear such an intimate invitation from Ning Rou.
Luo Zhen couldn’t help his nose sore, and his heart was terribly uncomfortable.
She wanted to agree, but the two words she said were refusal.
“Feel sorry.”
How dare she see Ning Rou now?
She has no courage.
Just hearing Ning Rou’s voice made her want to cry.
“it does not matter.”
“Don’t say sorry.”
“I’m not angry again.”
Although she was a little disappointed in her heart, Ning Rou did not express this emotion.
She is still in a good mood.
Because Luo Zhen didn’t plan to leave her.
This realization reassured her.
It also reminded her of what Luo Zhen said before——
Plan for the future.
Maybe she should make plans for the future.
At 5:10 in the afternoon, Ning Rou came out of the sugar water shop and went to the kindergarten to pick up her daughter alone.
Luo Zhen didn’t come, and Ning Baobao was a little disappointed.
Seeing this, Ning Rou took the initiative to explain.
“Auntie has to deal with work, so I didn’t come with my mother.”
Ning Baobao was relieved, a little smile finally appeared on his little face.
Come to think of it, she, like Ning Rou at noon, was afraid that Luo Zhen would just leave.
The mother and daughter came out of the kindergarten. Instead of going home immediately, they went to a small clinic nearby.
This is the county health center. It is very small and rudimentary. The doctor attending the consultation is an uncle in his 50s or 60s who knows a little about all diseases.
Because there is no need to register, Ning Rou always comes here to buy medicine every time she feels unwell.
She is still afraid of the hospital after all.
Holding Ning Baobao and standing at the door for a long time, he boldly walked in.
Her left ear was completely inaudible, and the hearing in her right ear was gradually declining.
The old doctor asked some basic questions. After confirming the symptoms, he didn’t even prescribe any medicine, so he directly suggested that Ning Rou go to a big hospital for an otoscopy examination, and don’t waste any more time.
Obviously, Ning Rou’s right ear can’t be dragged anymore.
For this result, Ning Rou had already made up her mind.
Her expression was extremely calm, and she could not see any panic.
It wasn’t until he turned his head and looked at Ning Baobao who was sitting quietly in the corner, his lips pursed slightly.
Just like when they came, the mother and daughter soon left.
And Luo Zhen has never appeared.
In the evening, Ning Rou left her daughter at home and went to work in a bar by herself.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.
At half past eleven, she returned to the old home on time.
No one knew what kind of tangled shaking her heart had experienced all night.
Luo Zhen taught her to plan for the future.
She listened to this sentence.
It can be cured, which means going to a regular hospital.
When Zhou Ruhong let her go eight years ago, she once said that you should not register identity information anywhere, especially not to leave medical records in the regular hospital system.
Otherwise, Zhou Ruguang would be able to arrest her from hundreds of millions of people in less than a day.
How dare she go to the hospital?
She didn’t know what to do until she put on her nightgown and came out of the bathroom after taking a shower.
In this case, if you want to heal the ear, no matter how you think, there is only one way—
That is to ask Luo Zhen for help.
Ning Rou was lying on the bed, the room was pitch dark, but she couldn’t sleep.
Baby Ning in her arms slept soundly in the cool air of the air conditioner.
Time passed minute by minute, and in a short while, it was past twelve o’clock.
Ning Rou rolled over, her eyes still open.
For some reason, she thought of Luo Zhen again.
It’s been a whole day and I haven’t seen Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen didn’t call her that night.
The more I think about it, the more sober my mind becomes.
In the end, it was total insomnia.
He took out his phone from under the pillow, and when he saw it, it was already 12:30.
Ning Rou’s heart was a little dry and a little anxious, tossing and turning, she didn’t know what happened to her.
She wanted to see Luo Zhen, and she wanted to see it very much.
After hesitating for several minutes, he finally couldn’t hold back and called Luo Zhen.
She knew that Luo Zhen must be working overtime and would definitely not go to bed so early.
As she guessed, the phone was connected in less than three seconds.
This time, she was still the first to speak.
“Alo, are you working overtime?”
Luo Zhen was still the same as during the day, and it took a long time to answer.
“no.”
“Why are you calling me so late?”
Ning Rou bit her lip and turned over again, her whole face buried in her hair, quietly covered with a layer of red.
She remembered what Luo Zhen said to herself before, and her heartbeat was inexplicably faster.
Before he could react, he repeated the words again.
“Nothing.”
“Just wanted to hear your voice.”
Exactly the same words, every word hides the timid love and longing.
With such an obvious hint, the three words ‘I miss you’ are almost said directly.
Surprised that she had said such blatant words, Ning Rou’s face turned red, her five fingers suddenly lost strength, and she almost couldn’t hold her phone.
She was waiting for Luo Zhen’s response, but the sound of the phone hanging up came from her ear.
Luo Zhen hung up the phone.
This surprised her and made her heart start to panic.
Just when he was confused about whether he did something wrong, there was a rush of footsteps outside the house, and then, the door of the room was also knocked.
Ning Rou put down her phone, her heart beating fast.
She knew that the person outside must be Luo Zhen.
It will only be Luo Zhen.
However, why did Luo Zhen go upstairs at once? Could it be that she has been guarding downstairs all the time?
Ning Rou felt in the dark and didn’t even wear shoes, so she walked to the door step by step with her bare feet, and opened the door.
Inside, it’s dark; outside, it’s dark.
She couldn’t see the face of the woman outside the door, but she heard a small gasp, and the faint scent of citrus mixed in the sultry air.
That’s the smell on Luo Zhen’s body.
She will not forget, nor will she forget.
The door was half open, and the woman stood at the door and did not enter the room.
Ning Rou raised her head, and could only glimpse a delicate outline in the darkness. Before she could speak, the woman’s cold fingertips pushed her hair away and quietly landed on her auricle.
Or the left ear that can’t hear a sound.
She couldn’t see anything, and in this dark night, she could only use her right ear to catch her lover’s voice.
She heard a suppressed cry.
In just a second, she guessed—
Luo Zhen knew that her ears could not hear.
The author has something to say: I also really want to write faster, but these two chapters can’t be faster. It’s not Calvin. It’s just so difficult to write. It takes a little time to figure out the characters. Bar
