Chapter 81: Whiteheads overnight

This time Xiao Hongyan went to Jincheng, Wang Licheng did not accompany her, he was not mentally prepared yet.

    Everything in that city was familiar to him. His close relatives in his previous life, including himself, were there, and he was afraid that his appearance would disturb their tranquility.

    It has been a week since she came to Jincheng, Wang Licheng not only didn't send her here, he didn't even visit her. Normally, he said that the factory was busy, and on weekends, he would send his daughter to Jingshi to learn piano.

    It was fine before, and suddenly he is like this.

    Whenever she thought she did something wrong to make him unhappy, he returned to his previous appearance like a normal person.

    Jincheng is far away from Pucheng, and it takes two or three hours to drive. She just came to work, and she is busy with work, so she has no time to go home. She can't go back, and he won't come.

    "Licheng, when will you come to Jincheng?"

    She would ask this question every time before the end of the call.

    "Well, I'll be there tomorrow."

    She was working there, and he couldn't avoid it all the time. He would never go to Jincheng for the rest of his life. He still wanted to see his grandma and save her life.

    "Then call me when you go to the city, and I'll pick you up."

    He was finally coming, and she happily put down the phone.

    I sent my daughter to school in the morning. He packed up some clothes and set foot on the road to Jincheng.

    As he got closer to Jincheng, he drove slower and slower, saying that he was timid because of the proximity to his hometown, but he was more nervous.

    After entering Jincheng, there seemed to be a mysterious force pulling him, leading him, and driving the car to a place not far from the gate of the elementary school he attended in his previous life.

    At this time, it was the time when school was over at noon, and there were people at the school gate. He watched from afar the groups of primary school students queuing up from the school. He found the class from his previous life in the crowd and saw that little her. Watching her go out and leave the team, and ran to grandma waiting by the roadside.

    Grandma was younger than he thought, with short gray hair, a plump face, and a vigorous pace. If it hadn't been for a sudden cerebral hemorrhage, she should have lived a long life.

    Seeing them walking farther and farther, he couldn't control his footsteps, got out of the car, and followed them far away.

    The sudden appearance of a large truck smashed all his hopes.

    No matter how loud the roar of "No" was, he ran to the truck desperately, but there were more and more people blocking him. A bicycle carrying a child was knocked down by him, and he suddenly fell.

    After falling to the ground, he began to convulse all over his body. He tried to get up but couldn't get up no matter what. His limbs didn't listen to him at all. He also wants to save grandma and her. There were more and more people, and he lay on the ground and couldn't see anything. I wanted to speak, but my throat was tight and I couldn't utter a word.

    The woman who was knocked down picked up the child and the bicycle, only to find that the man who had hit him had fallen to the ground and hadn't gotten up yet.

    "What's wrong with you?" Obviously, he bumped into it by himself, their mother and daughter are fine, why can't he recover from the injury?

    People came and took grandma and her body to the hospital, and he was taken to the hospital together.

    Qin Lan is now the secretary of the township party committee in Ningxiang, Jincheng City. In the morning, she came to the city government for a meeting. When she returned to Ningxiang at noon, she encountered a car accident on the road. She got out of the car to help maintain order. When the ambulance came, the paramedics confirmed that the grandparent and grandson were dead. At this time, someone in the crowd said that there was another injured person on her side. When the wounded were brought over, Qin Lan took a look. It was this look that led her to the hospital.

    The meeting in the morning was presided over by Mayor Xiao Hongyan. Now that her husband Wang Licheng is here and injured, she should go to the hospital with him.

    The traffic police here are already dealing with the scene, and it won't do much for her to stay.

    The ambulance carrying grandma and her left first. Wang Licheng regained consciousness and saw Qin Lan making a call with his mobile phone.

    "Don't, don't tell, Hongyan." He recognized Qin Lan who followed him into the ambulance at a glance.

    "You think it's okay!"

    "Still alive, right?" He wanted to know that grandma and she were all right, what he just saw was fake, and they were still alive and well.

    Qin Lan didn't know the relationship between Wang Licheng and the grandparent and grandson. Even if he knew, he was dead when he died, so he couldn't lie. She shook her head slightly at Wang Licheng.

    What he got was not the answer he wanted to know, his eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched, and his whole body was trembling.

    Why did this happen? He wanted to save grandma, he came to find Xiao Hongyan, and he didn't want to follow them out of the car.

    Why did the car accident happen, what did not happen in the previous life, why did it happen in this life, it must be him, it must be his appearance that hurt grandma and her.

    "Is there no need to inform her?" She saw that Wang Licheng's situation was not very good. He might have known the grandparents just now. Since they knew each other, how could such things be hidden from Xiao Hongyan?

    "No."

    Both grandma and she would be dead if he hadn't gotten out of the car if he hadn't gone to school, and if he hadn't come to Jincheng. There are many, many ifs. Even without him.

    After arriving at the hospital, Wang Licheng asked Qin Lan to help him get his mobile phone and wallet from the car. He is fine now, and he wants to be discharged from the hospital. Qin Lan threatened him and refused to let him leave the hospital. If he didn't go to the hospital for an examination, she would call and tell Xiao Hongyan.

    Why do they like to threaten him with Xiao Hongyan, if they hadn't promised Xiao Hongyan to come to Jincheng?

    No, no one can be blamed for this, it is he who is wrong, only he should not have appeared.

    In the afternoon, Xiao Hongyan called.

    "Why haven't you arrived yet?" She had been waiting all afternoon.

    "I have something to do, so I can't go."

    Wang Licheng's tone was a little blunt, and Xiao Hongyan hung up the phone angrily.

    The one who promised her to come suddenly didn't come again. Not only did he not coax her, but he was also so fierce. When did he treat her like this? He has changed since she came to Jincheng.

    To wait for him, she didn't arrange any work for half a day in the afternoon. She clearly said that she would arrive at noon, but she didn't call her if she didn't come and even beat her up. The more Xiao Hongyan thought about it, the angrier she became, and she planned to ignore him.

    When it was getting dark, Wang Licheng drove Qin Lan away. Qin Lan did have something else to do, so he left after seeing nothing serious.

    When he first came to the hospital, the doctor gave him a general examination, and everything else was fine, except that he had some kidney problems and needed to be re-examined.

    After Qin Lan left, he went through the discharge procedures. He had inquired, grandma and she were both in the morgue, and he was going to accompany them.

    Wang Licheng gave some money to the staff on duty in the mortuary, and he wanted to stay in the mortuary with his grandma and herself for one night.

    He sat on the ground against the wall, keeping his eyes on the place where grandma and her body were kept.

    Grandma has never enjoyed a day of happiness. She has a strong temper, and her relationship with her children is not very good, and they have not done any filial piety in front of grandma.

    She is less than eight years old this year, and she is only in the first grade of elementary school. Her parents did not love her since she was a child, and the only grandmother who loved her is gone. His appearance even deprived her of the right to grow up.

    He sat like this all night with his eyes open, and when he came out, his hair was gray and his face was black and blue from the cold, which frightened the staff on duty in the mortuary.

    "Are you okay!" Don't be anything, he doesn't want to lose his job because of earning this 1,000 yuan.

    Wang Licheng ignored him and walked out of the hospital like a wandering soul. He wandered around aimlessly, and he went to familiar places where they had or would have laughed in the past.

    As he walked, he came to the scene of yesterday's car accident, and the people around him were still discussing what happened yesterday.

    "I think yesterday's car accident was a little tricky. The driver said that he didn't turn the steering wheel into the crowd, and the car hit the grandparents by itself."

    "You listened to his nonsense, and it was not to shirk responsibility. How could the car hit someone by itself."

    Wang Licheng wandered around the city for a day without eating or drinking, and it was his daughter's phone that woke him up.

    "Dad, our school has a school celebration the day after tomorrow. Can you come to attend?" She talked with her mother on the phone last night, and she also invited her mother. Her mother agreed, but when she asked about her father, her mother said she didn't know.

    Hearing what mother said, she knew that they must have quarreled again, and that father hadn't coaxed mother yet.

    "Okay, I can participate." He also has a wife and children, what would they do if something happened to him? He wants to live well.

    He didn't ask about grandma and her car accident case. For them, the dispute would only be about the amount of money lost, and if they lost money, they would argue about how to divide the money.

    He has money now, but he has no intention of giving them a cent. In that family, money is the bane.

    He promised his daughter to go to the school celebration and opened a room in Jincheng that night to have a good rest, but he didn't fall asleep all night.

    In the past, as long as he fell asleep, he would dream all night. At that time, he complained that he would stop dreaming, but now he stopped dreaming, and he couldn't sleep all night.

    When I wake up in the morning, my hair is a little grayer and my beard has also faded. He cleaned up and went to Jiangcheng by himself. He needed a good haircut and dyed his hair black, so he didn't want them to worry.

    In the evening, he sat in the living room of Jiang family's family all night, and he didn't dare to fall asleep. Every time I close my eyes, my mind is full of grandma and her, and I can't sleep at all.

    When he closes his eyes, he will think of grandma and herself, and when he opens his eyes, he will doubt the meaning of his existence.

    He has been caught in a strange circle these days, he doesn't know what the meaning of his life is. Whenever this time, he will desperately miss his daughter and Xiao Hongyan, dragging them out of the dark corner. He had them, and another mother, and he was no longer alone.

    But even so, he still couldn't forget that grandma and she were dead, and he was the one who killed them.

    In the past few nights, he has been affirming himself for a while, denying himself for a while, over and over again, keeping his eyes open all night until dawn.

    When his daughter called him in the morning to ask if he was back, he was still sitting in the living room. The curtains in the house were all drawn, making it difficult for him to tell the time.

    "I'll go back right away, you wait for me at home."

    "Dad drive slowly, Mom and I will wait for you at home."

    She is very busy and shouldn't be returning to Pucheng to participate in this school celebration. The current principal is the father of my sister-in-law. She also taught at this elementary school, and her daughter is still studying at this school.

    This is where she and Wang Licheng reunited, and where they were together. This place has a special meaning to both of them.

    So she took the time to come back, she thought that she could see Wang Licheng when she came back, he would coax her and make her happy like before, but what was waiting for her was a cold room.

P.S. Due to exam, I will not be posting anything for about a week (unless it was already scheduled before).
