The feeling of depending your fate on someone else's hand is very unpleasant, the several days that she was waiting for his reply, TuRan had thoughts of abandoning the idea of giving birth.
She was already experiencing morning sickness,
from cold to sleepiness,up to not being able to smell certain things. Finally,
even the smell of shampoo can cause her to vomit.
She feels that
this cannot go on, so she speak to the people in her house, move her
stuff and go live with Zhou Xiaoquan. Zhou Xiaoquan lived by herself, two rooms
one hall, the parents give her early dowry. Tu ran took a sick leave from the
company, she nestled all day in Zhou Xiaoquan's sofa.
This time when Turan ran over to her, Zhou
Xiaoquan felt that it was very painful. One was because Turan didn’t want to
mention who the father is, making her curious almost to the point of wanting to
explode. Furthermore, she couldn't freely enjoy eating good food, because
Turan's sense of smell had become especially sensitive, after smelling even a
small amount of any smell,either pepper smell, soy sauce smell, she was able to
incessantly vomit.
Zhou Xiaoquan accompany her to eat porridge for
two days, the porridge was only sprinkled with a little bit of salt.Finally in
the evening her stomach started to become hungry and growling, hurriedly she
went downstairs to eat in the food stalls.
Behind her, Tu ran weakly shouted: "before
you go inside please clean your teeth , even a little cannot bring back."
Zhou Xiaoquan turned her head and smiled at her:
"The woman that lived opposite of our house also pregnant le, the woman
also weak like you , the stomach is already pretty big can still hold and buy
food."
Tu ran went to ask: "There's people living
in the opposite room? Isn't it always empty?"
Zhou Xiaoquan said: "Young married couple
just move, the man also looks quite good, but is always busy, always let the
woman to buy food. Later will your child's father also be like this?"
Tu ran knows that she is trying to probe, also
lazy to care, she turned around and went to the study room.
Zhou Xiaoquan in the cold street eat until she's
satisfied, washed her mouth with tea, then return home.
She went to the apartment downstairs, her mobile
phone started to have disturbing sounds.
The naughty sound comes out: Big brother, don't go, you make me..
She listen carefully carefully it seems like Tu
Ran's voice, she for the first time listen to this kind of ringtone , for a
while she laughed out loud.
Zhou Xiaoquan pressed the call "Hello",
and then heard a man's voice said:
"Tu ran, I.."
Zhou Xiaoquan said: "I am Zhou Xiaoquan, I
mistakenly took Turan's phone, What's your business? I'll get her to call you
back. Hey! I find that your voice sounds pretty vulgar...... What a vulgar
man!"
The man ignored her, directly asked:
"Where's Tu Ran?"
Zhou Xiaoquan look up to the balcony, there's a
shadow of a person standing alone, hand is clutching something like an orange,
then said: "She's in my balcony, smoking."
The man said, "en," then said in an
uncertain voice. "She can't smoke."
"Oh," Zhou Xiaoquan agreed, her head
suddenly thought of something, the more she was thinking she knew there's
something here, and she grew more excited. She grabbed the phone and said in a
loud voice: "Lu Chengyu, turns out it is you who did the bad thing, really
can't tell that you are actually a scoundrel. This is your underground work, In
the dark you actually did underhanded things, I thought that you are pretty
decent, Not like a person who have already eaten, wipe and then want to slip
away . I, that time shouldn't have brought ran ran with me, shouldn't have play
a matchmaker between you two, You like
this is doing an injustice to me don't you know? I really want to hit you,
split you......"
Lu Chengyu seems to be very patient, wait until
she's done scolding, he once again indifferently said: "after five
minutes, I'll call back."
Zhou Xiaoquan immediately ran upstairs, ran until
her stomach becomes a bit painful, she saw Tu Ran already started to go inside
the bed . Zhou Xiaoquan threw the phone to her: "just now the male
adulterer give you a call."
Tu ran lying there didn't move, eyes have not
opened, Zhou Xiaoquan shook her: "Lu Chengyu gave you a call, he said in a
while wants to give you a call again."
Tu ran suddenly reached rapidly under the bed to find a rubbish bin,started
to vomit, because didn't eat anything so there is also no trace of vomit.
Zhou Xiaoquan quickly gave her a cup of water,
Turan started to block her nose, pushed, and said: "this water has a
smell."
Zhou
Xiaoquan started to fell apart: "from now on, water and male adulterer
both are in the vomit black list?"
"That's not my problem," Tu ran pointed
out to her belly, "it's him that really doesn't like."
Lu Chengyu as expected is very punctual, his
phone call came and it is very brief and to the point, the main idea is that
last year he applied to go abroad to study, recently the visa was completed,In
March he would be able to leave for a year. Because the time is urgent, if she
doesn't mind, can or not apply for the certificate first, as for the feast
later on can discuss more. He later mentioned about the matter of the house. He
currently live in his school's building,it's too small and not convenient, then
said when his mother died she left him an old house, but the location is not
convenient and the surrounding is not good,when there's a child it will also be too small, his plan is
to sell out the house, at least it will
be enough to cover up the payment for a bigger house the remaining will be payed with a monthly
loan, so for more than a year, he would have to wronged Tu ran to live in her former home, her birth parents
can also help to look after. And then he once more stated that she should gave
up smoking.
What Lu Chengyu said afterwards, Tu ran
completely didn't put it in her heart, her mood was really happy and moved that
she can keep the child. She thought for a moment: Baby, as your mother, I have
let you down. For a moment, she still finds it hard to believe: Lu Chengyu this
man is pretty blunt, this matter also moves very quickly.
At the end of the conversation, she felt that she
should somehow express her present feeling, so she said to the offender,
"thank you, for not letting me kill my own child." She at that time
was feeling very weak, so the words that came out also sounded gloomy, besider
her Zhou Xiaoquan felt unbearable and shivered a bit, she's very curious what
their talking over the phone and Lu chengyu will have what kind of feeling.
In fact, Zhou Xiaoquan, has always felt that the
matter between the two of them is very strange, usually when they meet is also
not very affectionate, now there's a child, and even more they also insist of
getting married. Unmarried female now have dozen of boyfriends, doing it with
one or two and abortion are not really counted as a big thing, the society is
developing so fast, people's will also become more inconsistent, who can go
pass it? This matter Zhou Xiaoquan also want to discuss it more with Turan,
giving her more sincere advice."PLEASE one must by all means not get
married when just wanting to marry"
"Certainly not," Tu ran said, "I
want to get married to give birth to the child."
"Then why do you have to give birth to this
child?"
"Because we are going to get married."
Zhou Xiaoquan suppressed her temper: "In the
end, why do you have to give birth to the child and get married?"
Tu ran seriously and earnestly looked at her:
"to keep the stability of society, for the purpose of reproducing for
humanity, I can only contribute so little, but now I am proud of myself."
Zhou Xiaoquan shook his head: "I will
summarize it for you, getting married is to give birth to the child, giving
birth to the child is because of getting married, marriageand having the baby
are both in order to walk a different path than the majority of people,
right?"
Tu ran thought for a quite a long time:
"Aiya you sound pretty profound. However, I also believe that you are also
one of the majority of people," then she blinked and winked at her friend,
"and I believe, the adulterer will also agree with your conclusion."
The more Zhou Xiaoquan listen, the more she
thinks that the manner of these two people are lacking seriousness, this is not
a trivial matter and is extremely important, and not to say that this is
related to her best friend's lifelong happiness , so she want to find Lu
Chengyu and ask him clearly. But time and time again, the groom really did not
have a time for her.
At the moment Lu Chengyu is very busy and felt
disoriented, the institution asked him to arrange a team before leaving, he
also encountered a patient's condition that does not look optimistic and so
have to work overtime. The middle-aged director
is very easygoing , worried that he will be hot tempered, so he joked at
him and said: "just contact a bit and now you want to go, want to let you
to toughen up a bit in here, otherwise, when you go back after one year, how
can you bcome a surgeon? Anyway, this is what an experienced person is advising
you"
This is one of the people that he respect so
much, a cardiovascular surgeon that's already old and nearly 80 year old, Lu
Chengyu have been honoring him and was considered his disciple.
(so basically he really respect this teacher of
him and benefited a lot from him)
-----
Thinking back to those days, Lu Chengyu was
thinking how his life went by.
Thinking back to those years, heavy schoolwork
will also inevitably have some youthful love, but still, he will always be
clearheaded enough to find what's the most important thing in his life, and
even in the matter of love, he never
once wasted time . Those days he was indeed still young, only knew how to
advanced forward, so he could easily gave up and abandon things along the way.
It's not that he never fantasize about marriage , only very little. Marriage,
it should be about a process of a
sincere deep love,perfection and have to have a serious outcome, too excessive
and distant. However what is the meaning of sincerity , what is perfection, he felt that these
problems are very profound.
But the, Who will think about it nowadays, we're
all just sleepwalking in this city.
