within Temptation

Chapter 36

About a minute later, my cell phone rang through the jacket I had thrown aside.I knew it was Tang Xiaoru who called, and I thought she would hang up after one ring, but the ring kept ringing and kept ringing, as if I had to answer it.

I grabbed my clothes strangely, found out my mobile phone and pressed the call button, the voice of Tang Xiaoru was still on the phone: "Is it Dai Yong? It's me. I forgot to tell you something. Your bicycle, Don’t look for it tomorrow, just throw it away. It’s because of me, and I will compensate you. Also, I will pay you for your treatment expenses, future medical expenses, nutrition expenses, etc. Yes, I can't let you get hurt because of me, but you have to pay for the treatment yourself. In addition, I don't want the employees in the company to know what happened tonight. After you come to work, it's best not to tell anyone in the company. Write down my mobile phone number, if you need anything, just call me, okay?"

I thought about it, anyway, I just have no money now, since Tang Xiaoru wants to pay me for my bicycle and medical expenses, I don't need to be hypocritical.So I said, "Okay, I got it!"

"Well, that's nothing else, good night, goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

Putting down the phone, I calmed down my inexplicable irritability, and stopped thinking about Tang Xiaoru.On the contrary, when my mother comes back tomorrow and sees that I am injured, she may have to nag something.If I let her know that I was fighting with someone outside again, I really don't know how angry and sad she will be.Also, the blind girl named Yingying will come with my mother tomorrow, right?In my mind, the figure of a little girl with pink makeup and jade carvings began to appear.It's been so long, I can't remember exactly what that Yingying looked like.In my impression, she seemed to be a very cute and beautiful girl.Of course, she must be very different now than before.After so many years, the little girl has become a teenage girl.It's a pity that this girl's fate was so many disasters, her father died, her own eyes were blind, and now she even lost her only relative.I really don't know how such a young heart like her can withstand so many repeated blows?
According to my mother's wishes, after Yingying took over, she was to be raised as a family member.In other words, from now on, there will suddenly be a younger sister in my life.I have always been the youngest at home, and I have never felt what it is like to have a younger sister.That's right, since my sister got married, this family has become a bit deserted.I have to work to bear the living expenses of the family, so I must lack time to spend with my mother.After having a younger sister, at least my mother will not be so lonely anymore.

It was very late at night, I was lying on the bed thinking about things, and I didn't know when I fell into a deep sleep.

I don't know how long it took, but I was woken up by the ringtone of my mobile phone.I grabbed the mobile phone by the bed and saw Shi Shanshan's name on the caller ID.I guess she's already at work right now, so if she sees that I'm not here, why don't she call to take care of her?

I smiled, pressed the call button, put the phone to my ear, and said, "Morning, Shanshan!"

"What morning? It's already past working hours now! By the way, I heard from Hu Guoliang that you won't come on leave these two days? I plan to go to another office supplies company with you today, what's wrong? What's wrong? gone?"

"Hehe, no, it's just that there are some things to deal with at home, so I asked for two days off."

"Oh? Is it because of your elder sister's father-in-law's illness? That's right, patients need to be taken care of when they are hospitalized. Your elder sister has to take care of the children and go to work, so she will be really busy. Hmm...Looking at what happened to our colleagues For your sake, if you need my help, just talk to me. Anyway, I have nothing to do, and I am idle, so don't be polite to me, huh?"

Thinking of sending her home last night, Shi Shanshan lost her temper for no reason.Call me now, but as if nothing happened, still as enthusiastic as before.While I was wondering, I also seemed to feel something.But what exactly it is, I am confused again.

However, I can still hear Shi Shanshan's concern for me.It is a great joy in life to have such a worthy colleague.I smiled and said: "Understood, I won't be polite to you, which one of us is with the other, don't you think so?"

As soon as I said this, Shi Shanshan's voice on the other end of the phone went silent immediately.After a while, I thought the phone was disconnected, so I hurriedly said: "Shanshan, can you hear me?"

Finally, Shi Shanshan's voice rang in my ears again: "I hate it, when did you learn Wei Hai's smooth tongue? People are willing to help you because they see you working so hard. Who... who is with you and who?"

I thought this made Shi Shanshan angry, so I put away my joking intentions and said seriously: "I'm sorry, I'm just joking, Shanshan, don't worry about it."

"I know, I'm not angry. Well, I called to see if you're okay. Since you're fine, I'll hang up. Oh, and, these two days, Hu Guoliang asked Ji Yewei to come and run shopping with me , you can rest assured to take your vacation. Call me if you have something to say. Since you are busy, I will not need you to do the work of the driver for the past two days. Well... there is nothing else, so goodbye! "

"See you!"

Putting down the phone, I stayed for a long time, and I didn't know whether Shi Shanshan was angry or not.Later, I simply gave up thinking about it, and as soon as I turned over, I got off the bed.

I still have a little pain in my lower abdomen, but I feel much better than yesterday.At least when I was moving, I didn't feel the stinging pain.I got out of bed and walked slowly to the bathroom, brushed my teeth and washed my face indiscriminately.Thinking that my mother and the blind girl might come back at any time today, I hurried back to my room and packed my blood-stained shirt in a black plastic bag, and I was going to throw it into the trash can outside to destroy the corpse.

There was actually quite a bit of blood on my suit, too, but it was the only decent piece of clothing I had and I couldn't bear to throw it away.In addition, there was a small amount of blood on my pants.In order to prevent my mother from seeing that I was injured, these traces must be removed as soon as possible.

So, regardless of the injury on my lower abdomen, I changed all the clothes on my body and started to wash the clothes diligently.Before I knew it, the morning passed like this.After I get everything done, it's time for lunch.

I didn't eat breakfast at first, but now I feel a little hungry.There was no one at home for three days, and I basically wiped out everything that could be eaten.I looked at all the things I took out from the laundry on the table. Except for half a pack of cigarettes and a lighter, the rest were some coins.

With a wry smile, I took out a cigarette, lit it and smoked it, and slowly began to helplessly count the change on the table.After counting and counting, it is always the same number: two yuan and seventy cents!
Haha, two yuan and seventy cents, what can I buy to fill my stomach?
