Chapter 385 I'm Not Afraid
Su Xing saved a life and earned ten days of life. She should have been very happy, but at the moment she felt a little upset.
Tang Wu patted Su Xing's shoulder and said, "The girl should be fine."
Su Xing nodded, "Well, I hope she's okay."
Tang Wu saw that Su Xing was not in a good mood. She felt a little helpless and couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, she is still young. When she grows up, ten or twenty years later, perhaps some social trends will weaken. Even if some people's ideas cannot be changed, they will not be the mainstream decision-makers in this society by then."
Su Xing heard a soothing tone in Tang Wu's words. She smiled at Tang Wu and said, "Sister Tang is right~"
Although she knew that even eight or nine years later, many people would still measure a woman's value by whether she could have children, at this moment, she was willing to believe Tang Wu's comfort.
The girl's father said he was going home and driving his tricycle to the city hospital, then he stumbled away.
The onlookers gradually dispersed.
Most people have returned to the lake, and fishing with nets is more interesting.
Uncle Wang bought nearly 100 kilograms of fish.
Su Xing, Tang Wu and several members of the Wang family were preparing to return home.
There were a lot of fish in Uncle Wang’s van. Zhao Xiaojing thought the smell was too strong, so she ran over and got into Tang Wu’s car.
As for Wang Erlu, Zhao Xiaojing did not allow him to come, so he went back on Uncle Wang's fishing cart.
……
Su Xing and Tang Wu stayed in Qianguo County, Songyuan for five days and prepared to return to H City on the sixth day.
Grandma Wang was very reluctant to let them go and repeatedly told them to visit her when they were free, especially Su Xing. Grandma Wang emphasized that her home was in Tangshan, not far from Beijing.
Su Xing and Tang Wu agreed very seriously.
Finally, Grandma Wang waved her phone at Su Xing again and said, "If you don't have time to come see me, you can ask me on WeChat if you have anything to ask."
The old lady has been using WeChat for more than half a year and thinks she is quite good at it.
Su Xing nodded quickly and said with a crooked look, "Okay, Grandma Wang, I'll find you. Just don't think I'm annoying."
Grandma Wang smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry!"
Tang Wu's trunk was already filled to the brim with things from the Wang family, including some local specialties and cleaned frozen fish.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Su Xing and Tang Wu said goodbye to Grandma Wang and other members of the Wang family, started the car, and drove away from Qianguo County.
……
In the afternoon, the two returned to City H.
Tang Wu knew that at this time, Su Xing's parents must be busy, and Su Xing would be the only one home.
Therefore, Tang Wu first found a restaurant, and the two had a late lunch together before she sent her home.
Tang Wu gave half of the gift from the Wang family to Su Xing and asked her to take it upstairs.
"Sister Tang, thank you for your hard work. Do you want to come up and sit for a while and have a glass of water?" Su Xing asked.
Tang Wu smiled and said, "Let's do it another day. My old lady knows that I'm coming back today, and she will probably call me at a certain time."
Su Xing heard this and did not insist on inviting Tang Wu upstairs. She waved at Tang Wu and said, "Well, goodbye, Sister Tang."
Tang Wu said, "Goodbye, go up quickly."
Su Xing went upstairs and sent a message to her parents first, telling them that she was home. As expected, her parents did not reply to her message.
She packed up the gifts she had brought back, froze the fish, and organized the clothes in her suitcase.
She returned to her room, collapsed on the bed, and sent another message to He Xu.
Can I stay awake? [Sister Tang and I have already returned to H City!]
She originally thought that He Xu would not reply to her message until the evening, but less than a minute after she sent the message, WeChat rang. She clicked it and saw that He Xu had replied to her with just a few words.
Xu: [Are you home yet?]
Can I stay awake? [Yeah, we’re home~]
Xu: [Is it convenient to connect via video?]
Su Xing didn't reply, but just sent him a video call.
He Xu answered immediately.
The two hadn't video chatted for several days. When Su Xing was at Grandma Wang's house, they only occasionally sent two messages.
At this moment, seeing each other in the video, the young couple showed similar silly smiles on their faces.
Su Xing discovered that He Xu's background was not the laboratory corridor and it looked a little unfamiliar.
"Where are you?" she asked.
"At home." He Xu said, "Today is the weekend, the boss and the assistant teacher are all busy, and we rarely have a half-day off, so I'll go home to see you."
Su Xing realized that the "home" He Xu mentioned was not the apartment on Xueyuan Road, but the He family's home.
"Are all your family members home?" She subconsciously lowered her voice.
He Xu was a little amused, "No, but he might be back later."
"Oh..." Su Xing immediately straightened his back.
"How was your stay in Songyuan these days? Did you have a good chat with Grandma Wang?"
Su Xing immediately started chattering with He Xu about his experiences over the past few days.
He Xu listened very carefully, and when he needed to interrupt, he would not speak perfunctorily, and his words always led Su Xing to continue the conversation.
Su Xing also talked about how he rescued a little girl who fell into an ice cave yesterday, as well as the reactions of her parents and some people around them.
He Xu could hear Su Xing's depressed mood. For the first time, he didn't know how to comfort her and felt that whatever he said would be ineffective.
"Society is progressing, civilization is evolving, and people's concepts will gradually change..."
Su Xing subconsciously asked: "Really?"
He Xu thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, everyone in my family respects life and women."
Su Xing laughed.
There are many phenomena in this society that even if she doesn't like them, she can't control them.
But fortunately, her family, friends and lover around her all have positive values, and there are not so many bad people and things. She should be content.
The two chatted for a long time today, almost two hours.
At this time, He Xu heard a knock on the door.
He replied, "Coming."
Waking up, the voice dropped again, "Is your family?"
"It's my aunt at home." He Xu paused, then said, "There is a sound downstairs. Someone must have come back home."
Su Xing said: "Then go and be with your family, I'm hanging up first!"
He Xu laughed, "What are you afraid of?"
Su Xing immediately said, "What should I be afraid of? I'm not afraid!"
"Oh? Really?" He Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled, then suddenly said, "Then when you return to the capital, come and meet them when you have time?"
"Ah?!" Su Xing was a little panicked when he heard it, "This...wait, let's talk about it later, you should come downstairs quickly, I'm really dead..."
He Xu looked a little helpless, "Okay..."
"Snapped!"
Before he could even finish his words, he saw his girlfriend hang up the video call without any regrets.
He Xu twitched his mouth and moved his fingers.
Xu: [……]
Can you not wake up: [(expression: grinning)]
[I wish you all good luck in 2023. Those who work will get promotions and salary increases. Those who go to school will get high scores in every exam. Those who are yang will be healthy soon, and those who are not yang will never be yang. ]
