Bamboo horse fell from the sky

After talking on the phone, Yu Ran's mood seemed a little clearer, but she was still used to silence.

Chen Xue thought that Yu Ran was not familiar with Beicheng, so she took him for a walk around, and then hurriedly sent him to school when school started.

After Yu Ran met new friends at school, those things about Qi An faded away.Chen Xue thought so.

But just over half a month after school started, Chen Xue suddenly received a call from the head teacher.

She said Yu Ran had a fight at school and sent two students to the hospital.The moment Chen Xue heard it was completely unbelievable. She stopped what she was doing and hurried to the school.

She walked to the door of the office, but saw Yu Ran with a gloomy face being scolded by several parents, perhaps hearing her footsteps, Yu Ran lazily raised her eyes, but dropped her eyes the moment she saw her. down.

At that moment, Chen Xue's heart was shocked.

She didn't expect that a well-behaved and sunny child could become like this in just over a month, and the culprit was herself.

She apologized to the parents in the office, even though she heard that the cause of the incident was that the children threw smoldering schoolbags into the school's artificial lake.

Seeing her sincerity, those parents thought it was their own children who caused trouble first, so they didn't pursue it further.

On the way home, Chen Xue kept explaining to Yu Ran, saying that she had no choice but to send Yu Ran to this school because Yu Ran's father asked someone to trust him, and it was one of the few schools that could accept Yu Ran to enroll.

If Yu Ran is expelled from school, it will be very troublesome to find another school.

Hugging her wet schoolbag, Yu Ran didn't speak, Chen Xue felt sorry for him and wanted to carry it for him, but Yu Ran refused.

He didn't say anything along the way, walked into the bedroom, locked the door, and took out the wet, ink-stained envelope from his schoolbag.

This was written by Shen Chi to him when he graduated. It was very long, with a total of five pages, but now I can't read every word clearly.

Yu Ran just sat there stiffly, staring at the blurred letter in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.He sat for a long time, until the whole room became dark, before he put the letter away properly.

*

Yu Ran was fined to contemplate at home for seven days because of the fight, and those students who bullied him were also punished and demerited, but these are not important anymore.

Yu Ran looked at the cloudy sky outside the window and called Shen Chi.

"Hello? Ran Ran? Why are you calling me now?"

Shen Chi's voice was very low, as if he sneaked out to pick it up during class.

Yu Ran was stunned for a moment, only to realize that it was time for the other party to attend class.

"Are you in class?"

"Well, math class."

Yu Ran exclaimed, "Then why did you answer the phone?"

Naturally, Shen Chi wouldn't tell Yu Ran that he hid his phone on the table every day, and even set it to vibrate.

"It's not important, as long as you receive it. By the way, haven't you attended class?"

"No." Yu Ran murmured and replied, "I was punished to stay at home and think about my mistakes."

"What happened?" Shen Chi's voice sounded very worried.

"I got into a fight."

"Fight?" Shen Chi became more and more shocked, "Why did you fight with others and get bullied?"

"They ruined the letter you sent me." Yu Ran became even angrier as she spoke, "I should have kicked them into the lake and asked them to fish them up for me."

"Don't be angry, I'll write you another one." Shen Chi comforted him, and then asked, "Do they usually bully you?"

"No, who dares to provoke me." Yu Ran flatly denied, but suddenly asked in a low voice, "But what will you do if they bully me?"

"Run to Beicheng and beat them up again." Shen Chi replied firmly.

Yu Ran couldn't help laughing, but only took Shen Chi's words as a casual reassurance.

But he didn't know that Shen Chi was actually speaking the truth.

"Alright, alright, let me tell you some good news." Yu Ran's tone suddenly became more relaxed, "I will be able to go back to Qi'an to see you soon."

"Really?" Shen Chi was so pleasantly surprised that he couldn't believe his ears at all.

He asked again nervously: "Is this...really?"

"Yes, anyway, I was locked up at home for a week, and I just happened to be free to go back to see you."

Shen Chi smiled, showing such a happy smile for the first time since Yu Ran left: "That's really great. When you come back, I will ask the school for leave and spend a few days with you."

"Okay." Yu Ran teased him, "Hurry up and go to class, and I'm afraid that your math teacher will personally arrest you if we continue talking."

"Okay, then I'll hang up, take care of yourself, and call me immediately if you need anything."

"Okay." Remnant Flame replied bluntly, and then heard the beeping sound.

The moment he put down the phone, the joy on Yu Ran's face was wiped out instantly. His face was sullen, and the expression on his face was like the weather outside the window, brewing a crazy rainstorm.

He carried a bulging schoolbag and a suitcase in his hand, all of which he packed in advance without his parents behind his back.

Chen Xue and Yu Jingcheng were not at home today, so he could sneak out by himself.

Yu Ran asked the owner of the Internet cafe next to the school to buy the bus tickets in advance. In fact, if those people didn't come to provoke him that day, he would have to beat up those idiots.But it just happened to hit him with a gun, and Yu Ran was also happy to take this opportunity to vent his anger.

He walked out of the house without hesitation, held up his umbrella and left the dark cage that had trapped him for more than two months.

*

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, so heavy that it was abnormal, Yu Ran got out of the taxi, dragging the suitcase while holding an umbrella.

It was a bit strenuous, but thinking of returning to Qi'an in a day, these troubles turned into sweet sufferings.

The sound of the rain was very loud, mixed with the honking of traffic jams and the harsh sound of brakes hitting the ears, as if a glass had been smashed, and the shattered fragments scratched the ear canal to pieces.

Yu Ran walked forward, looked up and saw the green light on the sidewalk, and a bright smile rose from the corner of his mouth.

Cross this road and you will arrive at the station.

He walked forward, the road in Beicheng was very wide, Yu Ran walked very carefully.

The water under my feet was a little deep, and it covered the soles of my shoes, and I stepped on it with a puff.

It seems to be raining harder.

Just when Yu Ran was about to reach the end of the road, the sound of a rumbling engine suddenly exploded in his ears like thunder.

Remnant turned his head in horror, and saw a red shadow rushing towards him. The other party saw him and quickly grabbed the brakes, but the friction between the tires and the ground was neutralized by the rain, and there was no tendency to slow down in the slightest.

There was no time to dodge this situation, Yu Ran could only subconsciously block the suitcase in front of him.He swore it was probably the fastest reaction he'd ever had in his life.

The trunk cushioned the oncoming motorcycle.But Yu Ran was still knocked into the air.He felt his body vacated for a long time before falling heavily to the ground. The schoolbag on his back gave him a second buffer. Fortunately, the bag was full of clothes and it was not hard.

But the back of his head seemed to be scratched by something sharp, and a piercing pain spread instantly, occupying his entire consciousness.

Yu Ran felt his whole body was shattered, he didn't know if the bones were broken, it seemed broken, maybe it was broken.But he didn't have time to think, his eyes were blurred.

Ruined.he thought suddenly.

Will Shen Chi be angry if he can't wait for him? ． ． ． ． ．

I'm so sorry, I can see it obviously.

He could see him right away.

Thinking of this, Yu Ran suddenly lost consciousness.

The bright red blood slowly smudged out, and with the flow of water, it bloomed in the hand holding the ticket.

*

Qi An is sunny today, and the afternoon class will end soon, but Shen Chi still hopes that the time will pass faster, it is best to skip the waiting and pause on the day when the lingering flame returns.

But the eager mood was quickly shattered by a phone call.

It was Yu Ran's phone call, but the caller was not Yu Ran, it seemed to be a doctor or someone else, Shen Chi was too frightened to tell the difference.He only heard the other party say that Yu Ran was in a car accident, bled a lot and was being rescued.

Shen Chi felt the world turned upside down in an instant, and the blood in his body froze instantly. He held on to the railing next to him tightly, and asked tremblingly, "How is the situation now?"

"His condition is hard to tell. You should hurry to xx Hospital. Aren't you his elder brother? There are no other notes in his cell phone address book, only you. If you know his parents' phone numbers, contact them immediately."

Shen Chi's face was pale, he felt exhausted but he still trembled and said, "Okay, I'll be right away... Please, save him."

He quickly hung up the phone, and immediately called Yu Ran's parents.

Chen Xue almost passed out after hearing this, and they rushed to the hospital, but they couldn't even see Yu Ran's face, so they could only wait outside the emergency room.

After more than three hours, the afterburn was pushed out.

Fortunately, except for the more complicated injury at the back of the head, the injuries elsewhere are not serious.The doctor said that if the follow-up care is good, there will be no sequelae, but the scars may leave scars.

Only then did Chen Xue and Yu Jingcheng feel relieved.

*

When Su Yun heard about this, she immediately booked a ticket to Beicheng with Shen Chi.

The nearest train ticket had to wait until the day after tomorrow, but before Shen Chi could set off, he received a call from Chen Xue.

"Is it Xiaochi? I want to talk to you."

Shen Chi felt that this was the most uncomfortable and painful conversation in his life.

The last time, when Chen Xue told him about Yu Ran going to Beicheng, he still paralyzed himself. This was all for the future of Yu Ran. Even if he couldn't meet each other, he could still contact him.

But this time, Chen Xue said to him:

"Xiao Chi, Auntie hopes that you and Ran Ran will stop contacting each other. The more frequently you contact, the stronger the desire to go back to Ran Ran."

"We are helpless. This time he ran away from home and fortunately saved his life, but next time, how can we keep him." Chen Xue's voice became choked up.

"Auntie can only beg you. Ran Ran is too stubborn to overcome this hurdle for a while, but in fact, is there anything you can't solve at your age? After half a year, you will find that these are no big deal at all."

"I can't let go of the fire, Xiaochi, can you help him ruthlessly?"

Afterwards, Chen Xue told him what had happened, and Shen Chi knew that Yu Ran had sneaked out without telling them.

He wanted so much to go back, so desperate to see himself, that he was hit by an overloaded motorcycle on the way to the station and put in the intensive care unit.

She also told Shen Chi the real situation of Yu Ran, every word was like a sharp knife piercing his heart full of holes.After he finished listening, what followed was overwhelming guilt.

He regretted it, he shouldn't have let the lingering flames go to Beicheng.

Or going back further, he shouldn't provoke the lingering flame, he deserves to be alone, instead of greedy for the warmth, pulling the lingering flame into his world, and finally causing him to be covered in bruises.

Blame him.

It's all his fault.

He was the one holding on to the lingering flames.

He is the source of all misfortunes that linger.

Shen Chi heard a sentence of reprimand from the bottom of his heart.

The phone rang again, and he received a photo of Yu Ran lying on the hospital bed in a photo taken by Chen Xue.

The face that used to be full of smiles was now bloodless, with scars all over his body, so fragile that it seemed that he would lose his breath just by touching it.

This picture is the nightmare that he still wakes up in the middle of the night many years later, and it is also the fear that surges in his heart every time he embraces Yu Ran.

Shen Chi's whole body was cold, and his chest was suffocated. He couldn't help squatting down to take a deep breath, and then his heart twitched violently.Only now did he understand what a deep pain is, like someone cruelly cutting open your chest with a dagger, tearing out what you protect in your heart, and then smashing it to pieces in front of your face.

But Shen Chi was different, he had to do it himself.

Shaking his hands, he sent the last text message to Yu Ran's cell phone.

"Yu Ran, don't come back, I won't wait for you."

In an instant, the body seemed to weigh a thousand catties, but the soul was empty and desolate.

The author has something to say:

If Yu Ran didn't return to Qi'an,

Many years later, Shen Chi, who was struggling to get into Beicheng University, found Yu Ran: Hi, wife!

Afterburn: gun

At the beginning it was you who wanted to separate, separate, separate (bushi)
