Running Snail - Chapter 48

When Wei Nan returned, he heard a sound of discussion in the house.

It is vaguely that Fei Teng and Yuan Yuan are talking about yesterday’s events. Yuan Yuan seems to have changed Su Minmin a lot, and when he mentions it, he is no longer as ironic as usual.

“Su Minmin is so stupid, I feel unintentional and unbearable. I really can’t see how good Xu Zhiheng is.”

Fei Teng said flatly: “Why do I think he is not a good thing? My girlfriend went back to visit relatives alone, and even made up a lie about how good he was to him in front of the old man. The righteous person is good, and no one knows where he went. As a man, I despise him. Why don’t you even have this responsibility?”

Yuan Yuan smiled and said: “Xu Zhiheng is not Su Minmin’s boyfriend. Su Minmin has always been in unrequited love with the surname Xu. Alas, a woman shouldn’t take love so seriously, or she will make herself so humble and feel pitiful. ”

Listening to their continued discussion, Wei Nan turned and left.

It was late at night, and the full moon hung on the tip was gradually covered by dark clouds.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning pierced the sky, thunder was thundering in the ear, and the rain poured down in an instant!

The rainstorm in the summer was extremely violent. Although Wei Nan had the habit of taking an umbrella when going out, it was clear that the umbrella was useless under the violent storm. The umbrella cover was directly lifted by the wind and blown away, leaving only With a handle and the skeleton on it, Wei Nan’s whole body was instantly drenched in heavy rain, and he took the umbrella bone quite speechlessly and hurried to the dormitory.

The country road became muddy in the heavy rain. Wei Nan ran forward desperately. He couldn’t see the road clearly at night. At the turn, his feet slipped and his body fell straight into the pond!

With the huge thump in the ear, Wei Nan’s whole body was planted in the pond.

The rain was heavier, Wei Nan only felt his mind dizzy, his eyes were blurred, and several salivas were choked in his mouth. While struggling, it seemed that there was some great force, pulling his body into the depths of the pond.

His hands flopped **** the water, but more and more water entered his mouth, breathing became more difficult, and the suffocation in his chest became stronger. Gradually, the struggle became weak, and great fear and despair rose in his heart.

Am I going to die?

Wei Nan thought.

Maybe it’s because of dying, that’s why the brain becomes so clear.

In the chaotic water, pictures flashed through my mind like a lens, as if I was reminiscing about the past 20 years.

When I was learning to swim when I was a child, I drowned and was picked up like a chicken by my brother, but the fear of water has never been eliminated.

I just learned to ride a bicycle in my freshman year. I pretended to be calm and grabbed the handlebar while singing “Turn”. I accidentally fell into the water when I turned a corner, shouted for help, and was rescued by a fellow student. It has also become an unforgettable joke for boys in the class for several years.

When he traveled to Hainan in his senior year, Xu Zhiheng jumped into the sea in order to save people. He really wanted to jump in to rescue him like Su Minmin, but he was still a dry duck who couldn’t swim. Standing on the beach could not say a word, only clenched his hands and looked blankly at the rough sea, with nails deeply pierced into his palms.

Now I am drowning again.

I have never felt that death is so close to me.

Suddenly remembered Lu Shuang. At this time, he should still be sitting in front of the computer playing those small programs. The computer screen is still churning with characters that he will never understand.

He said, I’m going to wear my mouth just to get your mother to agree, so don’t let me down.

He said, do what you should do, but also remember to protect yourself. I am waiting for you to come back healthy and healthy.

He said, Wei Nan, if I can wait for you for one month, I can wait for you for another ten months, one hundred months.

He said, these are all voluntary, so you don’t have to feel guilty.

The gentle and familiar voice still echoed in my ears, but now I was struggling on the verge of death.

Lu Shuang, maybe…you can’t wait anymore.

His body became heavier and heavier, Wei Nan thought desperately, what would Lu Shuang do if he died like this? He paid so much and waited for the harvest with a smile on his face. If he knew that Wei Nan died in the countryside, if he remembered that he tried to persuade Wei’s mother to let his daughter participate in this free clinic, but indirectly killed Wei Nan, a person so serious might live in pain all his life… …

I didn’t pay back the money I owed him, but I couldn’t pay back what I owed him.

I originally planned to stay with him in the future. A person like him is worthy of my care and cherishment. What he wants sincerely, he promised when he was in New York, will slowly change, and one day he will be able to afford it.

But that day hasn’t arrived yet, and he is still waiting. How could he just leave him like this?

Wei Nan’s desire to survive has never been stronger than at this moment. The cells all over his body seem to be struggling, and his hands are dancing desperately, as if to seize all the survival opportunities that can be grasped. Wei Nan stirred the pond into chaos, and muddy water continued to pour into his mouth and nose. Wei Nan never gave up, flapping his arms in the pool.

Perhaps it was the road to heaven. Suddenly, Wei Nan grabbed a net-like object in his hand, which seemed to be a fishing net. Wei Nan grabbed it like a life-saving straw. Wei Nan, who was on the verge of collapse at this moment, could only use the last trace of his strength, grabbed his hands indiscriminately and moved slowly with a heavy body.

The net seemed to be tied to a nearby tree, but it was quite firm. Wei Nan crawled for a long time and finally climbed to the shore. Regardless of eating into the mud, he rubbed his hands and feet on the shore, lying on the shore and breathing desperately.

The air was finally sucked into his lungs again, and his eyes gradually became clear. The violent cough was like pulling up the heart, making my chest sore and spitting out a lot of muddy water.

Wei Nan wiped his face with a muddy arm, and after a long time, he laughed.

The rain became even worse, and Wei Nan was soaked into a soup chicken, with muddy water all over his body, and various water plants entwined in his hair. Fearing that the ground would be too slippery, I would fall down again, so I hugged a tree by the pool and sat carefully by the pool, laughing and crying. Still whispering in his mouth, Lu Shuang, I survived, I didn’t break my word, I told you to wait, and I said I won’t let you down.

I didn’t break my promise.

Wei Nan finally returned to the dormitory. Yuan Yuan and Fei Teng took a breath after seeing her like that.

Yuan Yuan exclaimed, “Are you doing performance art?! Going out with Su Minmin, how come back?”

Feiteng asked, “Did it fall into the water?”

Wei Nan nodded, “It’s okay.” Then he went to take a bath.

Fei Teng and Yuan Yuan looked at each other. In the end, Yuan Yuan trembled: “Did Su Minmin push Wei Nan into the water in a rage?”

Feiteng said, “I guess she accidentally fell into it. She swims very well. The rain is so heavy and the pond is so dirty that she actually climbed up.”

Yuan Yuan was silent for a long time before he whispered: “She can’t swim…”

The two looked at each other again.

Wei Nan took a bath for a long time, rubbed her hair several times, brushed her teeth several times, and when she finally finished cleaning up and appeared in front of Fei Teng and Yuan Yuan with a new look, they found that their eyes were a little dull.

Wei Nan smiled and said, “What’s wrong with you?”

Fei Teng gave a light cough, “You can’t swim, why… come up?”

“I promised someone one thing, I can’t just die like this.” Wei Nan said lightly. “Scientists say that when human beings are on the verge of extreme despair, they often stimulate the human body’s unlimited potential. I guess I actually have a gold medal in swimming I just stimulated my potential.” After finishing speaking, he smiled and walked to Yuan Yuan, “Lend me my cell phone and make a call.”

It wasn’t until Wei Nan turned and walked to the balcony with his mobile phone that Yuan Yuan sighed: “Fortunately, there is no danger. Otherwise, Lu Shuang will strip both of us.” Fei Tengye Nodded solemnly.

Just as Wei Nan was about to make a call, Yuan Yuan’s cell phone rang suddenly. Wei Nan handed the phone to Yuan Yuan, Yuan Yuan picked it up, his face changed a bit, and then handed the phone back to Wei Nan, “It’s your home again.”

Wei Nan walked back to the balcony with her mobile phone, and whispered: “Why did you call Yuanyuan mobile phone?”

Lu Shuang said in a deep voice, “I just called you, but I can’t get through.”

“I… the phone was soaked in water and it broke.”

“Are you all right?” he asked suddenly.

Wei Nan’s eyes were sore, pretending to be calm and said: “It’s okay, what can I do, this is not very good.”

Lu Shuang was silent for a long time before exhaling softly, “That’s good.”

“I will be fine. I promise you to come back healthy. If something happens to me, my mother won’t take your skin off.” Wei Nan chuckled lightly, “Right, why are you suddenly? Ask?”

Lu Shuang said, “It was raining here just now, and the thunder was loud. I suddenly felt uneasy. I always felt that something happened to you, and I couldn’t get through the phone. I was worried about you.”

Wei Nan tightened his fingers and said softly: “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Lu Shuang chuckled: “Okay, it’s okay. After the free clinic is over, come back quickly. I’ll wait for you.”

“…Hmm.” After hanging up the phone, Wei Nan held the phone in a daze for a long time. Finally, he sighed slightly and turned to Yuan Yuan and said, “I fell into the pond, don’t tell him.”

“Oh…” Yuan Yuan nodded.

That night, Wei Nan had trouble falling asleep over and over again, thinking a lot.

When he first met Xu Zhiheng when he was young, he passed the cold air around him, and later confessed and broke up in college.

For a whole ten years, I have been acting as a secretly in love with him, hiding in the corner, carefully capturing information about him. Later, I was able to fall in love with him, but also with a pious mood. In that short January time, I walked cautiously on thin ice every day.

That feeling is always unforgettable.

That kind of day, but it won’t last long.

In fact, at the moment when he thought he was going to die, Wei Nan thought about Lu Shuang the most.

That one has always guarded himself and paid a lot of Lu Shuang for himself. Lu Shuang, who always stood beside him with a smile, sheltered himself from wind and rain. When Qi Juan’s mother died, she was by her side without any regrets, and Xiao Qing was obliged to be with Lu Shuang when she was married abroad.

Human hearts are always fleshy, and he treats each other like this, how can he not be tempted?

I just kept suppressing my feelings in my heart, pushing myself to a dead end, and suffering every day in the illusion created by Xu Zhiheng. So I repeatedly ignored Lu Shuang, until now, when finally facing the life and death decision, I suddenly found out—

In fact, there is an important thing that I have never told him.

There are still another ten years, two decades, many ten years from now, I want to live with you.

At that moment, I realized that I had always felt at ease with Lu Shuang, because the string in my heart had already been touched by him, and he was just too stubborn to drill the horns and didn’t notice it.

The young self and Xu Zhiheng, that pure love and short happy time, after all, can’t be with each other for life. That is only suitable for memories, and can only be left in memories.

Su Minmin said that falling in love with Wei Nan is the happiest thing in Xu Zhiheng’s life.

In fact, she was wrong. The happiest thing in a person’s life is not to miss what he once had, but to cherish everything in front of him.

The happiness of the present will always gradually cover up the happiness of the past.

Because of people, one should always look forward.

The holiday clinic was quickly over, and another early morning, everyone embarked on their way home.

The villagers waved to bid farewell and gave a lot of seafood they caught. Wei Nan even received a small purse made by an old man, a cute little white rabbit with a carrot in his mouth, lifelike.

Looking at this piece of land that had only stayed for less than a month, and at the brilliant smiling faces of the folks, Wei Nan couldn’t help but raised his lips slightly. The cheerful music sounded and the car finally set off. Outside the window, on the eastern horizon, the morning sun gradually rose, reflecting the clouds on the horizon.

There will be many such beautiful mornings in the future.

Our lives are still so young, so why bother to spend them in the past.
