Views:

How is Lin Haishu? Li Wei felt a little uneasy. He couldn't make a phone call now, so he had to secretly pray that everything would be okay.

When the light hit and the opening song played, she had to suppress all her uneasy emotions temporarily. She had to show her best in front of the national audience, not to mention that the person she was going to interview today was a highly respected person. scholars. You should not bring your private negative emotions into the program. This is the most basic quality of a host.

Over the years, we have seen a lot of strong winds and heavy rains, and it’s not a big deal.

Li Wei walked slowly from the stage to the front with steady steps. At this moment, she was the center of the stage. She bowed slightly, looked dignified and calm, and still had the same calm demeanor as before.

Because the scholar is older, it is not easy to come to the TV station to record the program. Her family members stood on the sidelines, always paying attention to the old man's physical condition. Considering the old man's physical condition, there were several interruptions in the middle. It took two hours to finish recording the show.

When the curtain call came, Li Wei went up to give the respected old man a most sincere hug, and said sincere blessings: "Old sir, I hope you can live a long life and be healthy forever!"

The old man's family expressed their gratitude to the program crew for taking care of their old man. After finishing this program, Li Wei felt tired, but she had no time to rest, so she hurried out of the studio and went straight to makeup. In the room, she opened the locker and took out her mobile phone. There were two missed calls on the mobile phone, from her second brother. She couldn't take care of her second brother for the time being, so she had to contact Lin Haishu first. However, a cold voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sorry, the number you dialed has been turned off."

Why just turn it off? She hurriedly changed out of her clothes and put on her own clothes. She didn't have time to send the clothes to the laundry room, so she had to put them into the closet first. She hurriedly walked out of the studio and called her second brother. The call was put through, but unfortunately no one answered. It seemed that the second brother was not available at the moment. She didn't go to the office and got off work directly. When she passed the lobby of the TV station, she saw a news broadcast on the TV station.

"At about four o'clock in the afternoon, a vicious traffic accident occurred at the Yangrong Interchange on the Third Ring Road in our city, caused by a rear-end collision. The taxi hit the guardrail, the driver died on the spot, and a passenger was also seriously injured. He has been sent to the hospital The hospital is conducting rescue operations. The specific cause of the accident is under investigation.”

If Lin Haishu wanted to come to her, he would have to pass through this overpass. She glanced at the text message Lin Haishu sent her. It was exactly 15:57, and there was no news after that. Her heart was beating fiercely, no, it wouldn't happen by chance. He must be fine.

Li Wei hurried out, and this time Li Jianbo called again.

Li Wei pressed the answer button.

"Second brother, you called me twice in succession. Is there anything wrong?"

"Hurry up and come to Heep Hong. We have admitted a patient who was injured in a car accident. There is a photo of you in the patient's wallet, and you were the last person contacted."

Li Wei's heartbeat became faster and faster, and she was almost out of breath. She asked nervously: "Second brother, he is at your place, so what can you tell me about his condition?"

Li Jianbo paused for a moment before saying, "If you want to come and see him for the last time, maybe it's not too late."

The phone slipped from her hand and she fell to the ground. All the emotions could no longer be suppressed, and he regretted in his heart: It's all me, it's all me. If it weren't for seeing me, he wouldn't have suffered this misfortune. God, he's not even thirty yet.

Tears couldn't help flowing. Later, a colleague pulled her up, picked up the phone and handed it to Li Wei: "Anchor Li, what's going on?"

Facing the concern of her colleagues, she looked back sadly, her eyes were red, but her throat was choked and she could not speak. It took a while to hold back a word: "Thank you."

She had no time to delay, she had to rush to see Lin Haishu for the last time. She hurriedly walked out of the TV station. She sprained her foot because she was walking too fast. She stopped a taxi and headed to Heep Hong Hospital.

The taxi driver was a warm-hearted person. Seeing that something was wrong with Li Wei, he even asked with concern: "Have you encountered any trouble, madam?"

Li Wei said calmly: "It's okay."

It was originally a half-hour drive from the TV station to the hospital, but during the evening rush hour, she actually walked for fifty minutes during this half-hour.

These fifty minutes were the longest and most painful period of her life. After getting off the car, she hurriedly ran towards the hospital. She couldn't run fast due to sprained feet and staggering. Li Jianbo called Li Wei and asked her to go directly to the morgue.

She entered the elevator and pressed the number for the minus three floor. She was the only one in the elevator, and her tears fell like a bursting dam. The elevator door opened, with bright fluorescent lights and eerie silence. Someone was waiting for her at the elevator door.

"You come with me."

Li Wei limped and kept up with her second brother. Li Jianbo walked more than ten meters and then looked back at her. There was something wrong with her sister's walking posture, so he came back and took Li Wei's hand.

After walking into a room, Li Jianbo reached out and pushed open the door. It was extremely cold in the room. There was nothing but a bed. It seemed like there was someone lying on the bed, but it was covered from head to toe with a white sheet.

Li Wei slowly moved over. She couldn't believe that she and she were on the phone two or three hours ago, and in the blink of an eye, they were already separated from each other. She wanted to see the person lying down, but the hand she stretched out couldn't stop shaking. Li Jianbo opened the sheet for her.

It had only been ten months since they last met in Edinburgh, and he was still as handsome as ever. Even though he had died in a car accident, there was no visible injury on his face. His eyes were closed, as if he was asleep. The bright fluorescent light made his skin even whiter, and even his lips were no longer a bit red. She reached out her hand, wanting to touch him, but in the end she did not reach out to touch Lin Haishu's face, but held his palm, as if there was still a faint warmth left.

Li Wei slowly knelt down in front of the bed, feeling extremely guilty: "I'm the one who hurt you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. If I hadn't come to see you, nothing would have happened. Why did you just catch up? "

Although Li Jianbo didn't quite understand the situation, he still pulled Li Wei up and lent his shoulders to Li Wei to rely on.

"Everything in the world is unpredictable, so you don't have to blame yourself too much. This was a hurdle, and he happened to not get over it."

The heart slowly sank. At this moment, all the makeup on his face was gone, but Li Wei couldn't care about it anymore.
