my scheming human boyfriend

Chapter 60

At dawn, Bai Jinyi returned to Mei Xiangzhen's ward.

But there was no one in the ward.

The wind blew up a corner of the curtains, and the cabinets, bedding, everything was cleaned up, and even the patient ID card hanging at the end of the bed was removed.

Where are the parents?

Bai Jinyi immediately took out his mobile phone, wanting to see if there was any news that he had not received.

But there was no news about Bai Peiyun and Mei Xiangzhen in his mobile phone.

They just walked out of the ward.

Bai Jinyi walked quickly to the nurse's desk and asked the nurse, "When did the patient in Ward 303 leave?"

The nurse flipped through the notebook: "It didn't take long. I went down 15 minutes ago."

To leave the hospital, you have to go through discharge procedures.

Bai Jinyi rushed to the discharge window on the first floor, but he didn't see his parents in front of the window.

He thought for a while, then rushed to the parking lot of the hospital again, this time he caught up.

Bai Jinyi had just passed the hospital elevator down to the parking lot when he saw Bai Peiyun.Bai Peiyun and Mei Xiangzhen stood opposite him, separated by a parking lot driveway.

When he saw them, they saw him.

Mei Xiangzhen didn't say anything, and bent down to sit in the passenger seat of the silver-gray car next to her.That was Bai Peiyun's car.

Bai Peiyun also sat in.

The car started, left the parking space, drove into the driveway, and stopped when passing by Bai Jinyi. Bai Peiyun pressed the window and glanced at him: "Your mother and I are going home. You also go home."

After speaking, he stepped on the accelerator again, and the car left directly.

From the beginning to the end, Bai Jinyi couldn't open his mouth to speak, and his parents notified him unilaterally.

In the following time, everything seemed to be set for him and Jian Wuxu to come back to live at home.

But this time the situation was worse than last time.

The atmosphere in the home is getting more and more dull, almost no one in the room is talking, and the sound of the collision of porcelain and the dragging of chairs is so harsh that it is frightening.

Bai Jin wanted to escape.

The only place he could escape to was his own room.

But the room is not safe, or Bai Peiyun, or Mei Xiangzhen, will enter his room to sit after dinner.

Sitting also did not speak, just looked at him silently.

Most of the time, he needs to deal with the explosive growth of parent news due to the approaching high school entrance examination, and he can't pay attention to his parents all the time, but when he looks up from his busy work, he finds that his parents are still watching him. blocked.

At the end of the day, he was lying on the bed exhausted, Jian Wuxu leaned over gently, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Bai, can I talk to you?"

can.

"It's so quiet at home, I feel a little uncomfortable."

Yes.

"If I say anything to you casually, you don't have to pay attention to me, just let me talk to myself next to you, okay?"

it is good.

"Teacher Bai?"

Only then did Bai Jinyi realize in a daze that he hadn't said a word to Jian Wuxu.

He thought it was all said and done.

He took a deep breath, turned his head, and smiled at Jane without a clue.

The dark clouds dissipated, and the moon showed its face.

"Okay." Bai Jinyi said, "Tell me more, I want to hear what you have to say."

With Jian Wuxu's voice, the silent world created by the parents seemed to be broken.

The family is still so dull, but Jane Wuxu is like a bird standing on his shoulder, chirping and chirping. Turn your ears sideways and listen patiently to him talking about the little trifles in the classroom and in the class.

Sometimes I was so engrossed in listening that I even forgot when my parents left.

Parents are undoubtedly dissatisfied with him.

Bai Jinyi understands this.

The more silent they were, the more disappointed they were with him.

Bai Jinyi tried his best to satisfy them, but they were still more and more disappointed.

This weekend, the school did not arrange additional courses for the third grade.

On Saturday, Kashiwa intended to have a day off.In the morning, as soon as he came out of the room, he saw Bai Peiyun sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading the newspaper and looking at him at the same time.

"Where's mother?" He subconsciously asked, but Bai Peiyun didn't speak.

He went to the bathroom, brushed his teeth, washed his face, had breakfast, and cleaned up the dishes. Next, according to his schedule today, he should go out to the hospital.

But Bai Peiyun was sitting in the living room...

Bai Jin hesitated for a while, but still ignored the silent pair of eyes that followed him closely.

Those eyes came from Bai Peiyun.

But it seems that it does not only come from Bai Peiyun.

During the week of living at home, Bai Jinyi can feel these eyes more and more, no matter he is in the living room, in the room, or in the bathroom, he can feel it.

These eyes exist not only on his father, but also on the floor, wall, cabinet, anywhere he can think of.

It was staring at him all the time.

Just an illusion.Bai Jin knew it clearly.Those eyes didn't exist anywhere in the house, it existed only in his heart.

Bai Peiyun's gaze full of reproach weighed heavily on his heart.

Bai Jinyi's footsteps were heavy, but he still walked out. Just as he pushed the door open, he heard a "dang clang" next to his ears—Mei Xiangzhen moved a bench and sat by the door to trim the flower branches. The sound just now, It was the sound of metal scissors falling into the basin in her hand.

The son looks at the mother, and the mother looks at the son.

Until Bai Peiyun's cold voice came from the room:

"What's the big deal, you have to go out so early? You only have one day off in a week, can't you stay at home for a while?"

The same thing was revealed in the eyes of mother looking over.

Can't stay home?

Why do you have to go there?

Can't you live without him even for a day?

The continuous questioning was transmitted to the bottom of Bai Jinyi's heart in silence.

Bai Jinyi couldn't make a sound.

Whether it's for Bai Peiyun or Mei Xiangzhen.

He didn't want to contradict them, didn't want to argue with them.

...But I can't agree with them either.

His silence completely disappointed Mei Xiangzhen.

Mei Xiangzhen withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, picked up the scissors in the pot, and continued to trim the branches. Her movements were a bit hasty. When pruning the branches, if she didn't pay attention, the thorns on the branches pulled past her fingertips and drew a line. bloodstains.

"..."

Bai Jinyi wanted to speak out, but at this time, Bai Peiyun came out. He was going to talk about Bai Jinyi, but when he saw Mei Xiangzhen's bleeding fingers, he immediately forgot about Bai Jinyi.

"What's wrong with your hand, don't move, I'll get you some alcohol to disinfect it."

It was not Bai Jinyi's turn to speak out.

In the end, he couldn't say anything, so he could only continue to walk forward. Every step was as uncomfortable as stepping into a quagmire.

The weekend passed like this, and on Monday night, Bai Jin couldn't help but be satisfied with the evening self-study. He could go home early and have dinner with his parents.On the way home, he received a call from Bai Peiyun.

This is a rare initiative by Bai Peiyun after a week of silent confrontation.

Bai Jinyi turned on the speakerphone in surprise:

"Dad? Mom..."

He was worried whether Mei Xiangzhen's condition had changed.

But Bai Peiyun's words were very calm.

"Where is it now? When will you be back today?"

"on the way."

"Which way?"

"..." Bai Jinyi, "Dad, I'm driving and can't answer the phone. If there's nothing urgent, go home and say, I'll be home soon."

Bai Peiyun did not hang up the phone as promised, but continued:

"Bai Jinyi, you love to eat shrimps. Today your mother bought shrimps and peeled each one of them. Who would do such a troublesome thing for you except your own mother? Do you remember that you had a high fever when you were a child? "

On the phone, Bai Peiyun talked too much, as if he wanted to say everything he hadn't said in the past week.

"At that time, my father was on a business trip and couldn't take care of the family. Your grandparents were not in good health. It was raining heavily that day, and there was no way to get a car on the road. Your mother was dripping with water and carried you to the hospital. Hello, she fell down, and the child grew up without knowing how much mother's blood and sweat was absorbed!..."

Bai Jinyi put his hands on the steering wheel and focused on the road conditions.

It's time to cross the bridge.

There is a traffic light on the bridge, and the traffic on the bridge is always crowded.Now is the rush hour for getting off work. If you don't pay attention, accidents are easy to happen.

Bai Peiyun's voice still rang out in the carriage.

"I know, my treatment of you is indeed inferior to that of your mother. Your mother's love for you, I don't need to say, you know it well. Come back at night. In addition to shrimp, there are also cooked If you miss your favorite dishes, we will wait for you."

"No need." Bai Jinyi reluctantly said, "There is a traffic jam here, I may be late, it's cooked, don't wait for me, you guys eat first."

"Is it possible?" Bai Peiyun asked back, "No matter what the child does, as a parent, how can you not wait for the child. Your mother has been reading table mats online for the past two days, and she plans to buy them and put them on the table. No matter how late you come back, the food won't be cold."

Bai Jinyi looked ahead.

On the bridge directly ahead, cars crowded together, waiting tiredly and anxiously for the signal lights to change in the gray evening.

As the sun sets, the lights turn on and off, and the city without a break doesn't even need to change scenes, and immediately starts night work, no matter day or night, it is so endlessly busy.

Such crowded, stacked, exhausting traffic and cities are like stones weighing on my heart, so heavy that I can't breathe.

But as long as you tilt your eyes a little, you can shift your sight from the congested road to the river under the bridge.

There is nothing on the river, it is empty, and the gentle river water reflects the brilliance of the city. Those dazzling lights that urge you in the dark, are surrounded by the river water, become hazy, blurred, fade away from the hustle and bustle, and become extraordinarily quiet .

...has also become exciting.

Bai Jinyi was only distracted for a moment.

"Teacher Bai!" Jian Wuxu's exclamation rang in his ears, and then he felt the steering wheel in his hand being turned vigorously. During a violent shaking, the car hit something heavily, and he also hit something hard...

A few seconds of spinning around.

When Bai Jinyi sensed his surroundings again, he heard Jian Wuxu's voice calling him one after another, his mind was still a little dazed by the impact, and he could only slowly and passively realize:

The car's airbag deployed...

The car hit the roadside green belt...

Fortunately, it's just the green belt...

Bai Jinyi breathed a sigh of relief in a trance, and then he heard Jian Wuxu's voice clearly:

"Mr. Bai, what happened to you just now, you were driving into the river just now..."

"...I'm sorry," Bai Jinyi slowly recovered his voice, "I lost my mind..."

Are you really distracted?

"Call the police..."

After Bai Jinyi called the police, he first sent a message to Bai Peiyun, saying that he had something to do and had to go back later, and told them to eat first without waiting for him. Mom was sick, so don't be hungry.

Not long after the news was sent out, the traffic police rushed to the scene and first checked Bai Jinyi for drunk driving and drug driving.

With neither, the question is less serious.

During the traffic police's questioning, Bai Jinyi did not hide the fact that he had answered the phone before, so he finally decided to deduct two points from the driver's license and then compensate for the loss of the green belt.

After the responsibility was determined, the traffic police were ready to close the team. Before leaving, they took a look at Bai Jinyi: "Concentrate while driving, and don't drive tired. Remember to go to the hospital for an examination later to see if there are any hidden injuries left."

"Thank you, I know." Bai Jinyi said.

He didn't go.

The phone flickered, and even though he had replied to the message, Bai Peiyun's calls still came in every now and then.

He finished the car accident and took a taxi home without delay.

When we got home, it was already 07:30.

"I'm back." Bai Jinyi said, "Mom and Dad, have you eaten yet?"

This question was a waste of a question, and at the next glance, Bai Jinyi saw the untouched food on the table, the food was cold, and a layer of white oil had condensed on it.

Why are parents always reluctant to eat first?Bai Jin thought.But it doesn't make any sense to ask.

"... something happened to me on the way." He explained in a low voice, "I'm going to heat up the dishes, let's eat."

After finishing speaking, Bai Jinyi took the dishes into the kitchen and heated them up.

The food was served hot again.

But apart from Bai Jin's accident, neither Bai Peiyun nor Mei Xiangzhen sat at the dinner table.

"I don't have an appetite, you can eat." Bai Peiyun said.

"...Parents." Bai Jinyi said, "There are so many, I can't finish them all."

"Eat it." Mei Xiangzhen said lightly, "It's all made for you, you won't waste it if you eat it, and it doesn't matter whether you can finish it or not."

Bai Jinyi picked up his chopsticks.

But his throat and stomach were full of stones, one on top of another, one on top of another, very much like the traffic flow on the bridge he saw tonight.

Traffic jams the road.

At this time, there was suddenly more color in front of my eyes.

Bai Jinyi raised his eyes and saw that it was Jian Wuxu.

Jian Wuxu sat down opposite him, obviously very worried, but tried very hard to hide this worry.He whispered, "Mr. Bai, shall I accompany you to dinner?"

"..."

The stone that was pressed in the throat was moved away.

Bai Jinyi lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. The saltiness was just right, and the familiar taste soothed his tense nerves. This is the meal made by Mei Xiangzhen, the meal he ate since he was a child...

"...how do you feel?" Bai Peiyun asked in a low voice from the side.

Bai Jinyi turned her head and saw Mei Xiangzhen covering her chest and abdomen with one hand. She turned pale, but shook her head at Bai Peiyun, indicating that she was fine.

Bai Jin tightened his grip on the spoon: "Mom, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Mei Xiangzhen said lightly, without looking at him.

Bai Jinyi did not give up, and said after a while:

"Mom, I think you have to go to another hospital for another look at your illness."

The couple, who were not looking at him originally, looked at him for a moment.

"Why are you talking about this again?" Bai Peiyun frowned and asked, "This is a chronic disease, and it mainly depends on recuperation. Besides, your brother Xue is also careful with your mother, and the hospital is good. Why don't you worry about it?"

"Brother Xue is still young after all, and he is not an expert in treating this kind of disease. I inquired about this kind of expert from the Chinese Medicine Hospital." Bai Jinyi explained his thoughts to his parents, "I'll see if I can get on the number. If it is linked, let's go over there to find an expert to see if there are any different opinions and treatment plans?"

"Experts who are not familiar with your mother's situation may not be useful." Bai Peiyun retorted, "What if the medicine is prescribed indiscriminately and it breaks?"

"Then let's go to the capital." Bai Jinyi changed his suggestion, "It just so happens that I will finish the third grade of junior high school soon, and I have nearly two and a half months of summer vacation free time. I can take my mother to the capital for medical treatment."

This idea has been hidden in Bai Jinyi's mind for a long time, so he can say it so smoothly.

"You only have a little time during the winter and summer vacations. How about normal time? Your mother has a chronic disease, will it show results in two or three months?" Bai Peiyun vetoed again.

"If the road ahead is smooth, it will not be difficult in the future. My father and mother can go to the follow-up visit together." Bai Jinyi.

"..." Bai Peiyun couldn't help but glance at Mei Xiangzhen.

"No." Mei Xiangzhen replied simply.

"Mother?……"

"I will not go to see a specialist, nor will I go to the capital for medical treatment." Mei Xiangzhen, "I know my body well, and I will take care of it myself."

"But mom, the doctor's treatment does not conflict with your own recuperation..."

"You don't need to say it, I won't change my mind."

"Why?" Bai Jinyi still struggled, "This disease is usually not a big problem, but once you get emotional, it will quickly deteriorate, and you have been in a bad mood recently..."

"You have the nerve to say it! Who is the cause of your mother's bad mood? When did your mother's condition worsen and you didn't cause a problem? As long as you don't get angry with your mother, your mother doesn't need to see any doctor, and nothing will happen!" Bai Pei Yun scolded, "You are still making trouble now, what are you making a fuss about!"

There was a long silence.

"...I know, all along, I'm not doing well enough." Bai Jinyi slowly explained, "I can't do everything as you expect, and I can't walk away from you all. I paved the way..."

The silent tug-of-war between parents and children was revealed at this moment.

The child still refuses to look back.

Mei Xiangzhen's anger was instantly ignited.

"You don't want to listen to us and leave Jian Wuxu, but ask me to listen to your advice to see a doctor? Bai Jinyi, since childhood, have your parents taught you to be so selfish?"

"Mom, it's different—"

"What's the difference?" Mei Xiangzhen trembled, "This whole week, you went home, but every day after work, when did you not go to the hospital to see Jian Wuxu? You fainted with anger, are you going out to find Jian Wuxu? Every time you go out, you stab a knife in our hearts! Are you really in such a hurry? Can't you wait? Even if you wait for a day , even when we fall asleep, why don’t you go to him in the middle of the night? You know that I can’t be angry because of my illness, and you wanted me to watch you go out on Saturday, are you trying to force me to death for him? "

"Mom, I hope you're well, so I—"

"So you sent me to the hospital?" Mei Xiangzhen interrupted him, word by word, "Bai Jinyi, let me tell you, as long as you are still with Jian Wuxu and you are still angry at me, I won't Go to the hospital! I will never go to the hospital for treatment, I am waiting to be pissed off by you!"
