The door was closed, blocking out the sounds of people downstairs. In the room, the wind blew the curtains, adding to the silence.
Xu Tianyin was lying on the bed, looking like he was asleep.
I still remember that back then, he never slept in bed, even if she was with him, he would wake up if she moved at night. Now he was lying so quietly that he didn't even wake up when she entered the room and sat beside the bed.
She likes to see his sleeping face. When he is sleeping, he is completely gone. She likes to see his peaceful face, and she even wants him to spend more time at peace. But now, he was sleeping so deeply, but she couldn't even see the relieved look on his face. His face was all blue and black, and she had to reach out and touch it before she could see his three-dimensional facial features.
Xia Shao sat on the edge of the bed, lowered her head and caressed Xu Tianyin's cheek. Her voice was as soft as the wind blowing in from the window sill, "They all think that I should cry. If I don't cry, it will be unlucky."
No one responded, and the room was still quiet except for the sound of the wind. Xia Shao touched Xu Tianyin's lips and felt his weak breathing under his nose, "I'm leaving. Do you think I have a lot to say to you? I do, but I don't want to say it now. I want to wait until I come back. I’ll tell you again.”
Xia Shao leaned down and placed a kiss on the man's forehead. After a long time, she stood up, turned his palm over, and made an agreed gesture with her, "So you have to remember, I still have something to say to you, so you Don’t leave, you must wait until I come back! You said you wouldn’t lie to me, but you’ve already broken your promise once, and you won’t break your promise again, right?”
When she couldn't hear the answer, she made the agreed position tighter and asked persistently: "Is that right?"
The temperature under her palm was a little cold, so she shook his hand and covered him with the quilt again. Immediately, she put her pillow on his chest through the quilt and called softly, "Senior brother..."
His heartbeat was not as strong as before, and she listened carefully to hear the weak beat. She put all her weight on her hands, fearing that she would press him and make him breathe harder. But her cheek felt the same bulge on his chest.
Xia Shao stood up, gently opened the quilt to check, and found a jade gourd in a pocket on the chest of Xu Tianyin's thin sweater. This jade gourd was originally a pair. The master discovered a piece of good jade and took it to the Feng Shui treasure cave to cultivate for many years. When he accepted the disciple, he gave it to the senior brother and her respectively. It was this jade gourd that made the senior brother search for his master by his breath during the years when he disappeared, but he didn't know that another gourd was already on her body, and the person he was looking for turned out to be her...
Speaking of which, it was this jade gourd that sealed their marriage.
She has worn the gourd around her neck since she became a disciple and rarely takes it off, while her senior brother is used to keeping it close to his chest. He was wearing a thin sweater with a V-neck and his skin was blue and purple, except for his heart where the gourd was placed. The blue was much lighter. When Xia Shao saw it, he immediately took out the jade gourds from his body, made a pair, and put them into the sweater pocket on Xu Tianyin's chest. The color of his chest became lighter at a visible speed. It was obviously the pair of jade gourds. Protected his heart.
After covering the quilt again, Xia Shao put it on Xu Tianyin's chest with nostalgia, "I left it to accompany you, just as if I am accompanying you. You must hold on and wait until I come back!"
She sniffed deeply, smelling the familiar smell on his body, and then seemed to be afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would feel uneasy and leave, so she simply stood up and walked out of the room without looking back.
Xia Shao didn't bring much luggage. She only brought a few thick clothes and toiletries. It wasn't too late to buy the rest of the hiking tools when she got there. Before Wen Ye and Yi Ni came back, Xia Shao said goodbye to her friends downstairs.
Things happened so suddenly. Several people were still eating enthusiastically in the hot pot restaurant at noon, but in the afternoon Xia Shao was leaving for Kunlun. Liu Xianxian even discussed with Yuan Ze and others downstairs whether they should take a long vacation together and accompany Xia Shao. Even if they don't climb mountains and are just stationed at the foot of the mountain, they can still help with anything.
Xia Shao glanced at her and said, "Please calm down. I know you are all worried about me, but believe me, no one cares about his own safety more than me. If I can't come back, he won't survive either... So, You have to believe me, I will definitely come back."
Liu Xianxian didn't speak. She was usually quick-tongued and loved to argue and argue with others, but she didn't say a word at this time.
Xia Shao was most worried about her, "During my absence, you and your family must not force yourself. Remember my words, be patient for a while and wait for my return."
"They have too much time to take care of themselves now, so they still have time to make me unhappy?" Liu Xianxian snorted, her face darkened because she was worried about Xia Shao. When Xia Shao mentioned her father, her face became even more ugly. But when he looked up, he saw that Xia Shao was looking at her without speaking, as if he was just giving her random instructions, so he turned around and responded, "I know!"
Xia Shao then nodded and looked at Yuan Ze, "I have nothing to say to you. You have always been careful about priorities."
Yuanze smiled bitterly. He didn't know until today that it was a shortcoming to have a sense of severity in everything. She actually had nothing to say to herself. But then, he was glad that he didn't become her concern when she was in such a difficult time.
"As for you two," Xia Shao looked at Zhou Mingxu and Miao Yan again, "I hope you two won't be so awkward anymore when I come back."
The two of them were stunned and looked at each other, each blushing and feeling a little awkward.
Yuanze gave a comforting smile and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on them for you. If anything happens, I'll remind them."
"With you here, I feel more at ease." Xia Shao also smiled.
Several people sighed immediately. It was already this time. It was difficult for her to still laugh. She gave instructions and arrangements one by one. If it were anyone else, he would have been confused and confused.
When Wen Ye and Yi Ni came back, the Huaxia Group's car was already waiting outside the villa. Everyone sent him out. Wu Qunqian, Zhang Zhongxian and others had to take care of Xu Tianyin in the villa and could not go to the airport together. Yuanze and the other two drove to the airport together.
There were thousands of instructions in my heart, but when I said goodbye, I only had the word "take care".
Before the plane took off, Xia Shao looked outside and saw the sunset burning from the horizon, and the silence was as strong as blood.
…
During the four-hour trip, on the plane, Wen Ye and Yi Ni saw that Xia Shao had her eyes closed, so they did not disturb her and let her rest for a while. Unexpectedly, Xia Shao couldn't sleep at all. When she arrived at her destination, it was already dark outside.
As soon as I got off the plane, a cold feeling hit me. There was light snow in the sky. The temperature was indeed much colder than in Beijing.
People coming and going all wrapped up their coats tightly and were in a hurry. Xia Shao and the other three had their own cultivation and their vitality protected their bodies, so they didn't feel too cold.
The person who came to pick up the plane was the company manager of Huaxia Group in this city. This manager could only see Xia Shao at the year-end and group executive meetings, so he seemed very excited and personally drove Xia Shao and the others to the hotel where they were staying. .
The hotel has been booked a long time ago, and the tents and other tools needed for mountain climbing are all ready in the room. The manager is very efficient in doing things.
Naturally, the hall had been booked for dinner early and the banquet was prepared. The hall was already full of people, men and women in suits and dresses. According to Manager Wu, they are all executives and family members of Huaxia Group's company here. Xia Shao came unexpectedly today, but some people from the local business community heard about it and approached Manager Wu tonight to ask for a chance to sit down. Manager Wu didn't know that he had arranged this. Xia Shaogao was not happy, thinking that she would be pestered by some people to greet her as soon as she got off the flight. He was afraid that she would feel too tired and think that she was not considerate enough. So I rejected those people and only brought senior executives from within the company. Xia Shao has always been kind to the company's employees, and she wouldn't have any problem if one of her own came to meet her.
No matter how worried Xia Shao was, she should be gentle when facing her employees. After shaking hands and greetings, she took Wen Ye and Yi Ni to sit down together.
Manager Wu is in his early forties, with his wife and daughter sitting next to him, with a smile on his face. He only had the opportunity to see Xia Shao three or four times a year. Apart from reporting work and making some suggestions during meetings, he didn't have many opportunities to talk. Although I heard that Xia Shao came here for personal matters and asked to prepare all the tools for climbing, as if she was going on a mountaineering trip, but now that she is here, she will probably have to get involved in the company's affairs, so of course he has to behave well.
"Chairman, you don't come here often. What we are preparing tonight are local specialties, a whole lamb feast, served by famous chefs. You have worked hard all the way, want to try it?" Manager Wu was quite attentive, and the daughter on the side glanced at her father.
Her father is also a well-known person in the local area. How famous Huaxia Group is in the country, how much face her father has in the local business circle. She has always seen others being attentive to her family, but this is the first time she has seen her father be so attentive to others. of.
Of course, this person is none other than the real head of Huaxia Group, the legendary girl.
Manager Wu's daughter looked at Xia Shao curiously. They all came dressed up tonight, but Xia Shao was dressed normally, wearing a white sheepskin coat, which was different from how she looked in business magazines and on TV. Not ugly, but amazing. I'm amazed that a person who doesn't apply makeup and dresses normally can have such attractive eyebrows and eyes, and his skin is as jade-like as porcelain, glowing under the light. Moreover, she was about the same age as him, but her demeanor was calmer than her mother's. She sat with a smile, quiet and elegant, a gentle and gentle person, but everyone was careful with her.
Manager Wu’s daughter is also a well-known local socialite. She has always been able to talk to girls of the same age in the circle. Seeing the tense atmosphere at the table, she wanted to make her parents look good and said with a smile: "Director Xia, come here to have fun." , why didn’t General Xu come?”
When asked, Yi Ni and Wen Ye frowned immediately.
The daughter of the Wu family was stunned for a moment, and her heart suddenly thumped. She asked because she heard that the two of them had a good relationship, and the two had just gotten engaged, so they were probably still in the sweet period. This topic... shouldn't be wrong.
"You kid!" Manager Wu scolded his daughter, "General Xu is in the military area, how can he ask for leave just because he asked for leave?" After saying that, he smiled apologetically at Xia Shao, "Chairman, don't mind. My daughter is about the same age as you. , is still in college, she is usually spoiled and doesn’t even go to work-study programs. How does she know that work is not easy? "
Xia Shao smiled from beginning to end, her smile never changed, and she didn't seem to mind.
Manager Wu took a look at it, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Jing Gu is talking. Try this dish. I'm sure it will taste different from what you eat in the capital!"
"Thank you, Manager Wu, for taking the trouble to prepare." Xia Shao smiled, picked up the chopsticks, and saw a plate of beautifully decorated kebabs turned in front of her. Although it is not a rare dish, when it comes to local specialties, this is certainly a classic and a must-try. The craftsmanship of the hotel's famous chef is appetizing just by looking at it. I saw the mutton skewers, alternately fat and thin, burnt and shiny in color, and smelled of fat and fragrant meat.
Xia Shao likes spicy food recently, so she picked it up and tasted it as soon as she saw it. As soon as you take your mouth, the aroma is as beautiful as you imagined, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth, and goes straight into your throat. Xia Shao frowned, felt her stomach churning, and immediately let it go.
Everyone at the table was stunned when they saw her expression change.
Xia Shao did not lose her etiquette. She smiled, stood up and said sorry, then went to the bathroom without haste. As soon as she entered the bathroom and closed the door, she started retching. When the discomfort subsided, she raised her head, frowned slightly, and looked at herself in the mirror with puzzled eyes.
After a while, there was a knock on the door. Yi Ni asked her if she was okay, and Xia Shao opened the door and went out.
The whole table was a little uneasy and the atmosphere was dead quiet. When Manager Wu saw Xia Shao sitting down again, he stood up and said, "Chairman, is this banquet not to your liking? Why don't you cancel it and serve something else?"
Xia Shao smiled and said, "It's okay, it's my problem. Maybe it's because I just got off the plane and got a little airsick."
Everyone was relieved, but Manager Wu quickly replaced the waiter and added a few light dishes. Xia Shao ate these light dishes that night, but she still felt tasteless and had a very weak appetite. But she concealed it very well. In order to prevent the employees from worrying anymore, she said a lot, asked about the company's situation, and asked the executives about their families. Even the family members brought by everyone were not left out. Once understood. After the meal, everyone's faces became redder and redder as they ate, and the atmosphere became warmer and less tense than at first. However, no one noticed that Xia Shao rarely moved his chopsticks, except Wen Ye and Yi Ni.
After the dinner, everyone left with satisfaction. Manager Wu stayed until the end and explained that he would arrange for someone to send Xia Shao and the others to a county near Kunlun Mountain before leaving.
Xia Shao returned to the hotel room. As soon as she entered the room, Yi Ni asked, "You haven't eaten much. Why don't you ask the hotel to send you some midnight snacks."
She usually doesn't talk much, but is actually very attentive.
"No, it's probably because I'm airsick. I couldn't eat the light food just now, so don't order anything else." Xia Shao no longer had to maintain a smile in front of the two people, so she said lightly, with a tired look on her face.
Wen Ye frowned and stared at Xia Shao, "There are many people who fly here and there every day, and many of them get airsick by plane?"
What he said made sense. Yi Ni was also stunned and looked at Xia Shao strangely.
How could Xia Shao not know that she never got airsick? She was also feeling strange and said, "Maybe I'm in a bad mood today and I'm too tired. I should just take a night's rest."
That's what it sounds like. Something happened to Xu Tianyin, and she had been feeling depressed, and it was possible that she was feeling unwell. Seeing that Xia Shao's eyes were getting tired more and more, Wen Ye and Yi Ni stopped disturbing her and asked her to go to bed quickly.
Xia Shao originally thought that she would be unable to sleep due to her heavy thoughts, but she didn't expect that she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she touched the bed. When I woke up the next morning, I felt more energetic, so I called the hotel's morning receptionist and sent me to the bedroom.
Breakfast is simple, including milk, omelettes, sandwiches, and dessert. The fried egg was golden and the yolk was still tender. This time Xia Shao didn't even move. She only smelled the aroma of the fried egg, frowned, and went to the bathroom to retching. When she came out, Yi Ni and Wen Ye looked at her worriedly at the door.
"You've had a night's rest, are you still not feeling well?"
"I got sick?"
The two of them exchanged words. Wen Ye reached out and touched Xia Shao's forehead. Xia Shao ducked away with a smile and touched the boy's head. "It's okay. Maybe he's not acclimatized."
"Is it because of airsickness, a bad mood, or just acclimatization?" Wen Ye was dissatisfied with being shunned, and wanted to go against his master again with his eyes hanging.
"I think it's better to go to the hospital." Yi Ni said.
When Xia Shao heard this, she naturally refused. Going to the hospital is too time-consuming. It requires registration and consultation. It takes at least half a day. She didn't want to waste even half a minute.
"That won't work! If you get sick on the mountain, it will be more trouble than now. If you don't want to go to the hospital, you can ask Manager Wu to bring a doctor." Yi Ni said.
This proposal didn't waste much time, so Xia Shao had no choice but to agree. As soon as Manager Wu received the call and heard that Xia Shao called the doctor, he immediately thought that she was seriously ill. She was out of breath when she came, and she brought an old man with her, saying that she was a retired military doctor who was friends with her father.
The old doctor had a kind smile. Although Xia Shao's identity was known, it was obvious that at this age, he had taken everything lightly and did not talk much. However, Xia Shao was quite polite and said hello to the old man. The old man smiled and obviously liked her very much. He sat down and asked about her.
After hearing her situation, the old man asked her to stretch out his hand and felt her pulse. His eyes suddenly became clear, but he sighed.
This sigh made the three people in the room anxious. Manager Wu asked faster than Yi Ni and Wen Ye, "Uncle Wang, what is wrong with our Director Xia...?"
But the old man smiled, sighed again, and said with emotion, "Young people nowadays don't know much about their bodies. How can work and making money be as important as their own bodies? It's been almost two months, and they haven't even thought about it yet." I don’t know! Alas! How careless this is!”
“…”
The whole room was stunned.
Xia Shao froze on the sofa.
