Chapter 60(1/2)
Zhao Nanxiao originally thought that he could go back at most ten days and half a month, but unexpectedly, the delay was two or three months.
First, the neurologist postponed his return to China and waited for more than half a month. Then there was a follow-up visit and recovery. The process was very harsh. Fortunately, my mother's condition gradually improved, and everything was worth it. I waited until my mother's health was put down. Then the work came to the unit again. She couldn't go there for the time being, and the dean also sent someone else to serve her. After a busy schedule, she finally came to an end. She finally applied to be transferred to the Bridge Project Department again.
When Zhao Nanxiao went to the dean to apply for the application, he smiled and said in a teasing tone: "Xiao Zhao, although I don't really want to let you go, you have asked for it yourself, so I dare not not approve it. As a young man, I understand, understand, and I will definitely support it."
Zhao Nanxiao suspected that the Dean knew about her relationship with Xu Shu, and he was probably a little embarrassed to hear it from Lao Chen, but he didn't make any excuses and just pretended not to understand.
In this way, two or three months after Xu Shu left, Zhao Nanxiao was finally ready to set off and set off again.
I booked a flight ticket for tomorrow. Because the weather is getting warmer, the tourist season is coming, and the direct flight is gone, and it will take one day to get there. She really doesn't want to wait one more day. She bought a transfer flight without thinking and took off at 6:30 tomorrow morning and arrived at 4:50 in the afternoon.
I really miss him too much.
What does missing someone mean? Only when she finally understands it until now.
I would rather spend a day on the road than meet him one day earlier.
At night, she packed up the things she was about to bring, went in and out of the room. After packing up at nine o'clock, she smiled at her mother sitting in the living room and flirted with magazines, "Mom, I'm fine, I'll leave at around five o'clock tomorrow morning, I'm going to bed, you can go to rest too..."
"Oh no! There is also chocolate, I forgot to put it in!"
Zhao Nanxiao suddenly remembered and hurried to get the chocolate he bought.
This was planned to bring it to Xiaoling, a girl from the immigrant village. She was afraid that Xu Shu would be wronged and unfair to him and didn't care about him, so she bought an extra box for him.
"Luckily I remembered it!"
She stuffed the chocolate into the already filled box, closed the cover again, and locked it, then stood up with satisfaction.
"Mom, I'm going to sleep."
Shen Xiaoman looked at her daughter who was so busy that she flew around the house like a hardworking little bee all night. She put down the magazine in her hand and followed her into her room, asking, "Have you packed up all the things?"
Zhao Nanxiao thought about it carefully again.
Xu Shu didn't buy clothes herself, so he only saw that he was wearing two or three T-shirts. Now that the weather was warm, she bought him two new sets of clothes, underwear, socks, and a good set of men's skin care products to protect his skin who had been working in the wild for many years, as well as sun protection, so he must use it, and also use a new razor.
Finally, there is a box of things suitable for couples to be alone. When she went there, she felt that it would be inconvenient to buy if she wanted to use them.
Of course, I can't let my mother see it, she had long been secretly stuffed into the mezzanine of the box.
"Take them all!"
All the things she bought for him were put in. She checked them several times and nothing left behind.
Shen Xiaoman snorted: "We can finally leave, it's a pleasure to you. It's really a girl who is too young to stay."
Zhao Nanxiao turned his head and saw his mother leaning against the door with her hands crossed her chest, staring at her with a smile, her face couldn't help but feel hot, and she walked over and hugged her and acted coquettishly: "Mom, you wronged me, how could I be happy?"
Chen Xiaoman looked at her lively behavior as if she had returned to her childhood daughter, and she became even more determined to her thoughts.
Xu Zhenzhong's son will be in the current job for another day, and she will not be able to feel at ease for a day.
It's been so time since he has passed, so he should urge Xu Shu to avoid thinking that the words he said to him were optional.
"Forget it," Chen Xiaoman said, "Then remember to ask Xu Shu this time, and just say I asked you to ask him when I plan to propose to you."
Zhao Nanxiao's face became hot again.
"Mom, why are you doing so urgent? Now everyone is so busy with work."
"It's not an excuse to be busy with work. You just need to ask anyway."
"I know, I know, I ask. You go and rest."
Zhao Nanxiao pushed her mother back to her own room, came back, took a shower and lay on the bed, and habitually picked up her cell phone.
Love may really change a person's lifestyle.
In the past, she didn't use her mobile phone very much, just a communication tool, but now she has become a compulsory course for her to read the phone before going to bed every night.
No news about him.
He hasn't contacted himself today.
During the months when the two were separated, he did not take the initiative to contact her first every day, the frequency was about two or three days. Sometimes when they chatted before going to bed, he no longer sent her three or four messages in a row for a simple "good night".
I feel like he is not as sticking to himself as he was at the beginning.
She found out from Chen Songnan that he was very busy with work after he went back this time and often worked overtime until late at night, so she understood.
So tired, there is no extra time and energy left.
But the little loss in my heart couldn't be gone.
Thinking about it, I was quite good at it. When he was sticking to her in the past, she felt that he was annoyed and childish, and told him to be more mature. Now that he is no longer clingy, she can't help but feel lost and feels vaguely uneasy in her heart.
This is actually one of the reasons why she is anxious to go back.
I always feel that he is a little different now than when he was pursuing himself.
She put down her cell phone and picked up a book she read before going to bed, but couldn't concentrate, and hesitated whether to tell him the news that she was going back.
I will be there tomorrow, and it will only be four or five o'clock in the afternoon. She doesn't plan to let him pick him up. She will go there and give him a surprise.
I was looking forward to that moment.
Just as I was thinking, the phone suddenly heard a message from a new message.
Zhao Nanxiao's heart was beating and picked up his cell phone.
"Are you asleep?"
It was sent by him!
"I'm asleep." She replied immediately.
After sending it out, I suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly chased after another one: "I mean I just lay in bed and didn't fall asleep."
"What are you doing?"
She sent three messages in one breath.
He came back: "I just returned to my place of residence and planned to rest."
Zhao Nanxiao continued to wait.
"Then you go to bed, good night."
After a while, he sent her another one, asking her to sleep.
It's that simple?
The separation is not very short. He never asked her when she would go back and whether she would go back or not.
Is it okay if she or not he doesn't care?
Zhao Nanxiao felt a sense of loss in his heart again, and he was a little sad. After a moment, another message popped up.
xs: You haven't said good night to me yet.
Zhao Nanxiao seemed to have the grievance he had when he typed these words in front of him, and the familiar feeling that he had just returned immediately.
The haze of my heart suddenly disappeared and my mood improved again.
"Good night."
The corners of her lips curled up slightly, she replied to him, and finally put down her phone.
After a good night's sleep, she arrived at the airport early the next morning, boarded a plane, left before the city had fully awakened, and flew to the distant place that tied her.
Perhaps it was because of the good things that happened, and her plan had some minor problems. When she was transferring halfway, she was told that the flight was delayed due to weather reasons and the departure time was waiting for notification.
She waited at the transfer airport for an afternoon, and after dark, she waited for the boarding notice.
And according to her original plan, she had already flew to her destination at this time.
After such a struggle, it would be very late to get there at night.
The plateau airport is very small, with few late-night flights, and the surrounding area is desolate. It is too late, so it is a bit inconvenient for her to go there alone.
I can't play any surprise games anymore, so it's better to just ask him to pick me up.
While waiting for the transfer, she sent him a message telling him about his flight information. Maybe he was busy, but he didn't see it, and didn't reply immediately. She called him again, and called several times one after another, but never answered.
It should be that his phone is not around.
The plane was about to take off, and Zhao Nanxiao had no choice but to call Chen Songnan. Unexpectedly, it didn't work, so he had to board the plane first and talk about it later.
When she arrived at the plateau airport, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening, and the box was the last one coming out of the conveyor belt. When she went to the exit, there was no one around. Only the sound of her own foot heels making a step. In this empty airport hall in the late night, it sounded a little lonely and lonely.
When I left in the morning, I didn’t expect to be on the road for so long. The battery of the old phone couldn’t hold on and it turned off automatically after running out of power.
When she packed things yesterday, she remembered everything, but she forgot to bring her phone's power bank.
Zhao Nanxiao didn't know if Xu Shu saw the message he sent him later, so he felt a little uneasy. He dragged the box to the exit last and saw that the place where people were connected to the isolation railing was empty and there was no one.
Xu Shu didn't come.
The light strip above her head was filled with a cold light, and the hall of the plateau airport was empty and silent, as if she was the only one left.
She looked at the dark night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling glass wall, feeling tired and tired, suppressed her depression, walked out, found a staff member on duty at the airport, and wanted to call with her cell phone.
The woman stared at her and pointed diagonally opposite.
