Human Greed - Chapter 78
When Zhou Yuanyuan returned to the office, the nurse looked around and said, “It’s strange.”
She asked, “What’s wrong?”
The nurse said, “There was a patient waiting for you just now, and it was transferred from Dr. He.”
“Which Doctor He?” Zhou Yuanyuan asked, and the nurse said, “It’s from the ENT department.”
Zhou Yuanyuan nodded slightly, walked to the computer and sat down, frowned when she saw the patient record turned over: “Huh?”
The nurse leaned over: “What’s the matter, Dr. Zhou?”
“Su Yi.” Zhou Yuanyuan said, “I had a friend a long time ago, also named Su Yi, did you see her just now?”
The nurse nodded: “I see, she is a very beautiful woman, she has such a temperament!”
Zhou Yuanyuan was silent for two seconds. She dialed the phone number recorded on the computer, but there was no answer after several beeps. She was just about to hang up when a voice came from the other end of the phone: “Hello.”
The shallow voice, somewhat indifferent and alienated, was very similar to the person in memory, Zhou Yuanyuan called out tentatively: “Su Yi?”
Su Yi froze in place, her hands and feet were cold.
Standing under the scorching sun, the cold came up from the soles of her feet, barely regaining her composure, she said, “I’m Su Yi.”
“It’s really you.” Zhou Yuanyuan said, “As soon as I heard your voice, I knew that you just came to the psychiatric department? I’m Zhou Yuanyuan, do you remember?”
Su Yi’s voice was stuck in her throat, she wanted to speak out, but her throat was choked, and she finally said: “Remember, I have something to do at home, I have to go back.”
Zhou Yuanyuan said, “Oh, what’s the matter with your acute stress disorder?”
Suspected acute stress disorder was written on the record. Zhou Yuanyuan said: “This is not a trivial matter, and psychological problems are also very important. If you have time to finish your work, I will give you a checkup.”
Su Yi paused, and said, “Okay, I see.”
After hanging up the phone, Su Yi sat on the chair blankly, pressing her head with her hands, and it hurt a lot. The sound of the car horn was heard next to her ears, which gradually increased, and suddenly there was a bang!
Her face was pale with shock, her eardrums were bulging and vibrating, and the buzzing sound was about to make her head explode.
The memory was squeezed back without warning, and she flicked through the memories about Zhou Yuanyuan’s figure, and found that it was so clear. It turned out that she had never forgotten those things.
The first time we met, before the film was applied, earlier, earlier, Xu Ruoxing took Zhou Yuanyuan’s hand and said, “This is my girlfriend.”
The **** the other side was crying pear blossoms with rain, her eyes were angry, and she ran away, and she also ran away in a hurry, with an unsent letter in her hand, she sat by the river for a long time, threw the letter in, and it was submerged by the water, just like her A relationship, thrown into a corner where no one knows.
It was agreed not to pay too much attention, but she couldn’t help but want to care, how is Xu Ruoxing, how is she and her girlfriend?
When they reunited in freshman year, she was unprepared, and only took a look in the crowd, and found Xu Ruoxing.
Zhou Yuanyuan was still standing beside her.
They have such a good relationship.
So good that she was jealous, so jealous that she got sick.
After going abroad, her mood improved a lot. Later, she knew that Zhou Yuanyuan also came to the school opposite her. She despicably used her relationship to get close, and wanted to know more about Xu Ruoxing from her.
She knew she shouldn’t, but those sick thoughts tormented her.
Zhou Yuanyuan said: “Su Yi, do you know that Xu Ruoxing is really smart, and she got the first place in the age test.”
she knows.
But can only pretend not to know.
Zhou Yuanyuan said: “Su Yi, Xu Ruoxing is really cute.”
Zhou Yuanyuan said, “Su Yi, Xu Ruoxing called me today.”
Zhou Yuanyuan said, “Su Yi, Xu Ruoxing said she missed me.”
She paused holding the hand of the silk scarf, turned to look at Zhou Yuanyuan, Zhou Yuanyuan smiled like a girl in love, her throat was dry, and said: “That’s good.”
Zhou Yuanyuan asked: “This silk scarf looks good, I think it suits Xu Ruoxing very well.”
Yeah?
She also felt appropriate.
Zhou Yuanyuan took it to look at it: “The more you look at it, the more suitable it is.”
She didn’t speak.
Zhou Yuanyuan realized that she took it first, and asked her, “You like it too?”
After finishing speaking, she handed it to her, and she took it in her hand and said, “I like it.” She said, “I like it very much.”
Zhou Yuanyuan didn’t ask for a silk scarf. On the way back, Zhou Yuanyuan said, “I really hope to go back soon.”
She asked, “What are you going back for?”
Zhou Yuanyuan smiled: “Marry Xu Ruoxing, she said she would always wait for me.”
One sentence shattered all her fantasies. Did they already talk about getting married?
Her hideous little thoughts, being ugly and dirty, made fun of her for being shameless. Since then, she has never seen Zhou Yuanyuan again.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuanyuan still remembered her.
Su Yi lowered her head, her eardrums buzzed, and the voice in her ears turned from far away to nearer and farther away. She heard someone calling her: “Su Yi… Su Yi…”
It’s like hallucinating.
Someone touched his shoulder, and someone called in his ear, “Su Yi?”
She looked up and saw Li Chen.
Li Chen looked haggard, she looked at Su Yi: “Why are you here?”
Su Yi looked at her, fell silent for two seconds, and said for a long time, “Come and see a friend.”
Although Li Chen was curious that she had a friend in the hospital, she didn’t ask any further questions. She was too busy to take care of herself, and she didn’t have the time to pay attention to others. The two of them sat down. sit on the chair.
After a long time, Su Yi remembered to ask Li Chen: “How is your aunt?”
Li Chen said, “It’s okay.”
She looked at Su Yi: “I’m sorry about what happened yesterday.”
“I never thought…”
Su Yi said, “It’s okay, you’ve worked hard too.”
Somewhat polite, Su Yi’s attitude was indifferent, Li Chen was deeply trapped in her own world, and did not notice Su Yi’s abnormality, she lowered her head and looked at her hands, trying to support Su Yuran in the past, it was really blind and naive Ridiculous, she couldn’t even support herself.
Seeing her slumped look, Su Yi’s heart was touched, and she suddenly asked, “Would you like a drink?”
Li Chen looked at her and nodded: “OK.”
The two went to the bar near the hospital. At 1:00 p.m., there was no one there, and it was quiet inside. Li Chen went in and asked Su Yi what to drink, but Su Yi didn’t know, so she looked at the waiter: “Do you have any recommendations?”
The waiter immediately recommended three or four good wines in high spirits, Su Yi nodded: “Go ahead.”
Li Chen didn’t say anything, and sat opposite Su Yi.
The two had their own concerns, Li Chen seemed to suddenly remember: “Where is Ruoxing?”
Su Yi thought for a while: “She’s gone to discuss business with Mr. Zhao.”
Li Chen remembered that the matter of special materials was supposed to be her job, but now Xu Ruoxing was busy. Li Chen said: “Her side will end soon, and I can go back to work soon.”
“It’s okay.” Su Yi said, “You should have a good rest first.”
Her tone was very slow and her expression was calm. She was holding a glass of wine when she heard someone approaching her: “Miss…”
Su Yi turned her head, her eyes were indifferent, her side face was tense, her whole body was filled with a strong sense of alienation, she looked at people coldly, the young man who had just grown up was caught by her eyes, and he didn’t finish the following words, Su Yi said indifferently: “Is there something wrong?”
The young man quickly shook his head: “No, it’s all right.”
Said and walked away in despair.
Li Chen looked at Su Yi, and suddenly smiled: “You didn’t seem to have lost your memory just now.”
Su Yi lowered her head, lowered her eyes, took a drink, and asked Li Chen, “I didn’t lose my memory before, what was it like?”
“It’s cold.” Li Chen blushed slightly after drinking, and said, “It’s like a piece of ice, I’m afraid that Ruoxing won’t cover you warm.”
Su Yi fell silent.
Li Chen said, “You’ve been married for more than two years, right?”
Su Yi looked at the wine in the glass, which was amber in color. As she moved, it hit the rim of the glass, causing circles of ripples. She nodded: “Well, it’s been more than two years.”
“Actually, back then, we didn’t believe it. We thought it was Ruoxing who lied to us.”
Li Chen didn’t believe it anyway, she smiled foolishly, she was obviously a little drunk, she drank too fast, there was no buffer at all, it was hard not to get drunk.
But Su Yi was not drunk.
She lowered her head: “Why?”
“Because Ruoxing, she used to…” Like a switch, it suddenly stopped, Li Chen slapped his forehead: “I’m talking nonsense again.”
Su Yi looked up at her, drank silently, and didn’t follow up to ask.
before what?
Is there a story about Zhou Yuanyuan before?
She knows it all.
She even knew that before marriage, she would give Xu Ruoxing a chance to repent.
Su Yi picked up the cup, took a sip, the phone rang, and vibrated against her lap, she picked it up to see, it was Xu Ruoxing, Su Yi was holding the phone, her whole body was tense, her face reddened by alcohol turned white at the moment.
Xu Ruoxing made two phone calls but no one answered, she frowned, feeling uneasy, just about to make a third call, when she answered the phone, Su Yi’s voice came: “Hello.”
One word made her let go of all her tension, Xu Ruoxing asked, “What are you doing?”
Su Yi looked at Li Chen and said, “Outside.” After a pause, he added, “Drink with Li Chen.”
“Drink?” Xu Ruoxing asked, “Where is it?”
Su Yi said, “It’s near the hospital.”
Xu Ruoxing said, “I’ll be right over.”
Su Yi opened her mouth, the phone had already been hung up, she sent Xu Ruoxing the location, picked up the cup in front of her, drank a few cups, and Li Chen leaned on the seat, sank deep into it, without making a sound.
The surrounding area is very noisy, and there are more and more people, but Su Yi feels quiet. Those voices are far away from her at this moment, and she can’t hear any sound in her ears. It seems that a lot of cotton has been stuffed to isolate those voices. outer.
She drank one cup after another. She couldn’t remember how many cups she drank. On the dance floor, someone twisted her waist and began to swing. She kept looking at the door.
A long time later, a person came in at the door, wearing a gray shirt, a brown professional skirt, and wearing slender high heels. She was tall and slender, with her hair tied behind her ears, showing a beautiful face. Many people saw her from the moment she entered the door. There was a lot of movement around, and there were a lot of people who wanted to strike up a conversation, and all their eyes fell on her.
Whenever Xu Ruoxing appears, she is always the focus.
Su Yi also looked at her.
In my memory, the person with facial features gradually opened overlapped with the figure in front of him, blending in little by little, and the sound of high-heeled shoes, stepping on the marble, also stepped into Su Yi’s heart.
Her eye sockets were warm, and the corners of her eyes were red.
Xu Ruoxing, long time no see.
