fingertip quicksand

In the empty hospital, the smell of disinfectant makes people feel a little suffocating, Bai Bai is leaning against the snow-white wall in a decadent manner, she is now in the corridor outside the ward, surrounded by a few scattered people , each thinking about their own things, some are sad and some are calm

She took out a cigarette from her pocket, then lit the cigarette very skillfully, the orange fire burst out, took a deep breath, the orange light became more intense, and the smoke slowly overflowed from her mouth and nose

"Miss, smoking is not allowed in the hospital"

Bai Bai hurriedly wanted to extinguish the cigarette, but found that there was nowhere to extinguish it, so he temporarily put it behind him, and said embarrassingly

"Feel sorry"

The person who reminded him saw that Bai Bai's attitude was still respectful and sincere, so he didn't say any more, but the expression in his eyes was more or less mixed with contempt. Girls smoking, this may not be such a good habit. People think of words like not very serious

After the person walked away, Bai Bai looked at the cigarette in his hand in a daze, and suddenly thought of Nan Jiu again. Every time he thought of her, he would feel uncomfortable as if his chest was blocked, so he didn't want to think about her. In order to suppress these strange feelings, A man ran to the roof of the hospital and lit the cigarette again, one, two, three... Repeatedly mechanical

The phone suddenly rang, it was the ringtone of a text message, and after swiping open the phone, he found that it was a incoming text message, and these Qian Baibai basically didn't need to be confused, and quickly guessed who was calling, and finally suppressed the uncomfortable feeling , suddenly surged up again, and seemed to have become extremely irritable recently, so she couldn't control it at the moment, and dropped the phone to the ground, and the scattered mobile phone parts were located on the cement floor.

As soon as the money was received here, the person who sent the money over there also received the call immediately. Nan Jiu didn't seem to want to answer the call. After thinking about it for a while, she still answered it. Sure enough, the other party's tone was harsh and uplifting. guilty

"You should know that I gave her money."

"Know"

Nan Jiu replied indifferently.

"Knowing that you still transfer money to her"

Patience, Nan Jiu is on the verge of patience, trying his best to calm his emotions and said

"The money you give is only enough to pay for the surgery"

"You are free and I gave her less, are you an idiot? She sold you for money, and you still give her money again and again like an idiot, are you so unloved? You are a man Forget it, it's still a woman, I warn you not to have any contact with her..."

The passage was full of all kinds of insults, which were unbearable, but Nan Jiu seemed to be used to it, and continued to speak in a gentle tone without caring.

"Dad, I still have to work, hang up first"

"I'm not kidding you, I warn you, if you have anything to do with her again, be careful that I break your leg, just like I broke your hand at the beginning"

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Nan Jiu's mouth, an untimely smile, which seemed a bit strange, she quietly looked at her right hand, and raised it in mid-air, in front of her eyes, this hand clearly It's all gone, but still hurts

"Dad, I can't play the piano anymore because of this hand, you... know it"

Why does the culprit have no guilt at all, why does he open these wounds again and again, until the blood is dripping and he refuses to stop

"What do you do with that crap? You can't use your hands. You don't need it! If I hadn't only had a daughter like you, I would have kicked him to death. You know how to embarrass me all day long "

Nan Jiu took a deep breath and remained silent for a long time.

"I'm really glad that the one I like is a girl. If I meet a man like you, Dad, I'm afraid I won't have enough time to kill him. But after this incident, I also found out that men and women are actually the same. It's terrible. It’s bad, there’s no difference between men and women, it’s just that I happened to meet them all.”

When the person on the opposite side heard such words, his tone instantly raised several degrees. Of course, the raised tone was not because of happiness, but because of more anger

"What nonsense are you talking about, don't think that your wings are hardened, you are nothing without me"

Nan Jiu didn't seem willing to listen to these yelling words anymore. After a few words, she hung up the phone and put the phone on the desk with a blank expression. Then the office door was knocked politely for three times. Excuse me, knock on the door softly and formally

"come in"

A tall girl stepped on high heels and walked in slowly, saying

"Mr. Nan, Miss Bai is outside, she said she wants to see you"

The secretary's expression was a little subtle, probably because he was suspicious that Yu Baibai, who has always been impolite, actually obeyed the rules this time and didn't rush in directly, but waited quietly outside

Nan Jiu nodded, still showing no emotion

"Call her in"

Soon, Bai Bai walked in, still in the casual attire, canvas shoes, jeans and a T-shirt, it was neat and tidy

Of course, this is not the first time Bai Bai has come here, but this time he is extremely reserved, and his serious look doesn’t really suit her. This sense of restraint may be due to Nan Jiu’s expression of rejecting others thousands of miles away. There must be some strangeness, but Bai Bai knows that the woman in front of her seems alienated, but in fact it is easy, extremely easy, no matter how you treat her, she will stand there waiting for you, like a fool, but the more she is so easy The more I can't bear to hurt anymore

"I'm leaving after the surgery"

Nan Jiu looked very busy, busy with the things in hand, flipped to the left and looked again, and tapped the keyboard from time to time, as if she didn't care much about what Bai Bai said, just simply hummed

"are you busy?"

Nan Jiu raised her head to look at Bai Bai, a gentle smile hung on her cold face again

"not busy"

The voice paused, then continued

"Just to make you think so"

Hearing these words, Bai Bai didn't know what expression to make, so he simply went straight to the point and didn't say anything else

"I owe you a proper farewell. I am here today to make up for this good farewell, although it is a bit late."

Bai Bai raised his head and looked directly at Nan Jiu. She hadn't looked at Nan Jiu like this for a long time, and finally there was no guilt in her eyes and she no longer dodged

“Thank you and sorry for this time”

Nan Jiu still had that gentle smile on his lips, and nodded slightly, which was regarded as a response and as an acceptance of this "good" farewell

"I'm leaving"

Saying that, Bai Bai turned around and pushed open the door of the office. The wooden doorknob was engraved with patterns of bamboo leaves. Bai Bai also asked Nan Jiu about this question, asking her why she likes bamboo leaves so much, whether it is a business card Whether it is the tactile black bamboo on the handle or the carving on the handle, they all tell everyone how much Nan Jiu loves it

With the strength of the hand, the door opened a hole, and then expanded. The noisy keyboard knocking outside the door and the sound of the mouse clicking from time to time faintly entered the human ear, as if two worlds, separated by this door, Busy outside, idle inside, noisy outside, quiet inside

Inside the quiet door, when Bai Bai was about to leave, a voice came, with a calm tone

"Why don't you go downstairs and have a cup of coffee before you go?"

Nan Jiu asked this very casually, as if she just said it casually, like a conversation between old friends, Bai Bai was silent for a few seconds, just when Nan Jiu thought she would refuse, she opened her mouth

“Also good”

It's good that the two words did not bring joy to the inviter, and naturally it did not bring sadness, it was just a little melancholy

Nan Jiu still followed her previous habits and chose the seat where she often sat, leaning against the glass wall. The position seemed to be just right, with sunlight shining in, but it would not make people feel glaringly uncomfortable. The scenery outside the wall is a bit of a distraction. There are no trees and no flowers and plants. It's just the cars and buses passing by at a fast speed. When the car whistles, it can be heard even through the glass.

"It seems that you like this very much, every time you sit here"

Bai Bai looked around, looking around, he must have found some memories here, after all, he worked here for more than half a year

Nan Jiu stretched out her hand, and pointed her white fingers at the location of the cash register, and said with a smile

"Didn't you find anything?"

Bai Bai looked at the point he was pointing in puzzlement, his expression froze for a moment, and he suddenly came to his senses in the next second.

"Nan Jiu"

Bai Bai called her like this sadly, his tone was full of helplessness, Nan Jiu didn't pursue these things, but stared at the cash register, Zeng Nan Jiu was also sitting at this position, He also looked at the cashier in such a trance, but now he was looking at the location, while before he was looking at the cashier standing there, the cashier was named Bai Bai

Nan Jiu, who has been here many times, did some research and found that the position next to the glass wall is very good, and he can clearly see all the movements and expressions of Bai Bai.

"Do you have to go? You know, I don't want to wait for you anymore"

Hearing these words, Bai Bai felt that there were no waves in his heart. It was as calm as stagnant water. Even if you threw stones at it vigorously, it would not be able to stir up too many waves after all.
