Chapter 139 The hand that has always been held (please vote for me, please vote for recommendations)
Accompanied by the sound of "ding-ding" wind chimes, Xu Hongdou fixed her hair.
At this time, Zhang Wentao's heart was beating inexplicably fast. He breathed out secretly, gritted his teeth, and mustered up the courage to look at the other person.
Holding Xu Hongdou's silky little hand, under the other's questioning eyes, she said:
"Xu...Xu Hongdou, I..." Zhang Wentao was a little excited, his voice was trembling slightly, as if he was speaking out the words that had been stored in his heart for a long time.
"You...are you nervous?"
Xu Hongdou's eyes showed a hint of expectation, and there was an indescribable joy and sweetness in her voice.
"I like…"
Zhang Wentao swallowed his throat and tried his best to control his nervousness.
When he was about to say those four words to Xu Hongdou again, there was a "clang" and the courtyard door was pushed open. Xie Zhiyao ran in in a hurry and shouted: "Zhang Wentao! Where are you! Hurry! Call Pigeon back.
!”
His sudden move startled Zhang Wentao and Xu Hongdou on the steps.
Zhang Wentao, who had no time to regret, subconsciously put down the hand holding Xu Hongdou, and while watching the other party walking towards him angrily, he took out his cell phone, which was still on silent mode, from his pocket.
I took it out and saw that there were already more than ten missed calls.
"Zhang Wentao, what on earth did you do? I can't even explain what I said when I cried on the phone just now!" Xie Zhiyao anxiously ran to the two of them, not caring about controlling the volume at night.
His urging voice was particularly deafening in the quiet night.
The three people in the yard, Damai, Nana, and Ma Ye, were all alarmed by the sounds in the yard. They thought it was a dispute between the two of them, so they quickly got out of bed or ran out of the house, regardless of whether they were still wearing pajamas.
Xu Hongdou saw something was wrong and used her body to separate the two people, but her expression when she looked at Zhang Wentao also showed doubts.
She knows pigeons and has seen them before.
On the first day Zhang Wentao came to the courtyard, it was Pigeon who brought him here. She also knew that Pigeon had gone directly to the ancient town to look for Zhang Wentao when he came back from outside.
"Don't rush me!" Zhang Wentao roared angrily across Xu Hongdou, the veins on his brows popped up, and he glared at Xie Zhiyao who was urging him beside him.
He knew that Xie Zhiyao's anxiety was out of concern for his employees!
However, every time Zhang Wentao is urged to hold his cell phone and make anxious calls, the PTSD caused by the death of his parents will appear.
At this moment, he was frantically rubbing his hands back and forth on his clothes. His palms without sweat felt wet and sticky.
Just like before, it was as sticky as his parents' blood and he couldn't hold the phone.
After a moment of panic, he opened the phone with his trembling right hand and quickly dialed Pigeon's number.
As soon as the call came through, Zhang Wentao anxiously put the phone to his ear and said: "jejejeje, Fuck!"
"Ge...Geve, don't cry, don't get excited, what's going on?!"
Zhang Wentao's voice trembled even more than when he was about to confess his love just now.
On the other end of the phone, Pigeon, who had been crying for a long time, sobbed and cried after answering the call: "Wen...Brother Wen Tao! Madman! Madman is dead!!!"
!!!
!!!
There was a "buzz" sound.
After hearing what the other party said clearly, Zhang Wentao was stunned.
After the tinnitus passed, he suddenly felt that his vision went dark, time slowed down a lot, and the anxious expressions on the faces of others around him seemed to freeze.
The sound on the phone disappeared, and the world became quiet.
But as this feeling was instantly withdrawn, Zhang Wentao staggered two steps involuntarily, his hands trembling even more, panic was written on his face, and tears were streaming down his face before he could even speak.
"Geve...Geve, what are you talking about...the lunatic...how could something happen to him!" Zhang Wentao choked up the first half of the sentence, and the latter sentence was shouted out with a hysterical roar.
Everyone was shocked by Zhang Wentao's actions for a moment.
On weekdays, Zhang Wentao can only keep a straight face at most, and he has never behaved like this.
But before they had time to react, Zhang Wentao took the phone and ran into the house while cursing the pigeon for talking nonsense. Before anyone had time to react, he ran out with his passport.
Under the moonlight, in the lamplight, his face covered with tears was pale...
He felt as if his heart had been stabbed hard by a file, and then cut back and forth, and that fatal suffocation feeling returned to him.
"Madman, I'm going to find madman..."
…
The next morning, in the international transit hall of LS Airport.
Feeling the warmth from his palms, the decadent Zhang Wentao sat in the rest area with dull eyes.
"Dear passengers, please pay attention. Dear passengers, please pay attention. We are taking LS Airlines, flight number LS380..."
Zhang Wentao knew that people were urging people to board the plane at this moment, but he just listened blankly, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
The emergency contact person written on the madman's passport is Pigeon.
But Ge Ge was so heartbroken last night that he was admitted to the hospital. At this moment, he was the only representative of the emergency contact, flying to Kathmandu first to cooperate with local departments and embassy personnel, as well as the madman’s parents to deal with matters related to the repatriation of the body.
"Zhang Wentao, we are about to board the plane."
Xu Hongdou looked at Zhang Wentao's weathered and lifeless face, and felt as if his heart was being pulled.
Yesterday during the day, he was still well-dressed in the restaurant, with a confident look on his face. At this moment, he was like a walking zombie, showing no reaction to her words.
It wasn't until she gave him a gentle push that Zhang Wentao raised his head indifferently and looked at Xu Hongdou with his eyes downcast.
"oh."
After Zhang Wentao finished speaking lifelessly, he stood up with his head drooped.
"Wen Tao, everything will pass." Seeing Zhang Wentao like this, the haggard Xu Hongdou's eyes were already red, and tears fell down again.
She gently took the other person's hand and said, "I'm with you."
"But, my friend is dead." After Zhang Wentao murmured, he said with silent tears: "We made an appointment to go to Antarctica to see the glaciers together."
After saying that, he wiped his tears, showed a sad smile to Xu Hongdou, stretched out the hand held by Xu Hongdou and said, "Let's get on the plane first."
…
Last night, after hearing the news of the madman's death, Zhang Wentao cried to dryness and finally understood why Xu Hongdou was so difficult to let go and in pain when telling her about Chen Nanxing's death.
The time I have known a madman is not long in my life.
Only less than 8 months old.
But when he was with the madman, Zhang Wentao felt that he had regained his desire to make friends.
It turns out that it is so important to have a partner who can have fun together, and be able to make reliable travel plans.
It was so important that after this friend went to a distant place, Zhang Wentao could only stay in Yunmiao Village in a daze.
You can only spend one morning in a cafe in the ancient town.
Only when you need to go back to the restaurant can you know what you can do every day.
And now, this friend is gone.
It seems that the promise left between two people has no meaning anymore.
But the other person is so important to me, why didn't I stop him from going in the first place? Why didn't I drag him to Yunmiao Village with me?
Obviously I have the opportunity to change.
why?
Why do you have to let yourself feel such pain and helplessness?
Zhang Wentao, who was in grief and couldn't control himself, didn't know how he got on the plane. It seemed like there was a hand holding him all the way.
And this hand seemed to be holding it after showing the ticket...
Alas, forget it, that’s it.
It really took me a long time to write, and I wrote and deleted various versions, and it lasted for several hours and I was still not satisfied.
Finally, I chose this version. It can be regarded as a temporary break from the plot of the TV series and go out with Xu Hongdou. The time will not be too long, maybe only one or two days. However, this journey means a lot to Zhang Wentao, and
It will bring a lot of changes to him. The lunatic has been in trouble for a long time, so he might as well use it.
