Strategy

As soon as he walked out of the ward, Sang Tian almost ran to the window, held the window frame and took several deep breaths.

Her heart felt like a heavy boulder was pressing on her, and she couldn't breathe. The sky was covered with black clouds, as if it was going to rain but it couldn't rain. I don't know if this feeling of suffocation could be blamed on the low air pressure.

Lin Xue came over and pressed Sang Tian's head on her shoulder: "What's wrong with you?"

Sang Tian really wanted to say "it's okay" as usual, who is she? Facing how thoroughly she has been defeated by fate, now she is just a deserter who has lost all her vigor.

She could only linger on Lin Xue's shoulder, "I can't breathe."

She hugged Lin Xue tightly, like a drowning person clutching at the last straw.She suddenly thought that Lin Xue was like this in the past, being held down in the swamp by life, holding on to her outstretched hand as if it were the last straw.

But at that time, at least Sang Tian still had the courage to go forward, so he was able to force Lin Xue out.

Until now, Sang Tian himself has become a person stuck in the swamp, and Lin Xue has given up investigating Chao Xi's matter under her pleading.

No one else can lead them out of this swamp.No, it's not so much a swamp, it's better to say it's sinking in a deep sea, so deep that the surrounding sea water is black and you can't see the sea surface, the feeling of suffocation makes the whole lung hurt.

At this time, Lin Xue stretched out her hand, gently lifted Sang Tian's chin, and kissed her.

Lin Xue had a very fresh taste in her mouth, like grass, like the dewy wind in the forest, like a person whose shackles are slightly lighter than Sang Tian, ​​swimming out of the sea desperately, not trying to save himself, Just to take a breath of oxygen into Sang Tian's mouth.

When she left Sang Tian's lips, she asked softly, "Is it better?"

In fact, Sang Tian was a little uncomfortable with such gentleness, she always felt that the tugging force on the wolf cub's face was gone, as if all the edges and corners had been smoothed by fate.

Sang Tian patted Lin Xue on the shoulder forcefully: "What you blow into sister's mouth is carbon dioxide!"

Lin Xue finally followed her with a smile, and rubbed Sang Tian's hair: "I'll take you out for a breather."

Sang Tian shook his head: "I have to accompany the old lady."

Lin Xue: "You can't do it in front of your aunt."

But Sang Tian always thought that if Sang Jia's operation failed, she and Sang Jia would only have one month.

It takes five seconds for a normal person to take a breath. That is to say, if she stands here and breathes ten more times, the time she spends with Sanja will be reduced by one minute.

Sang Tian's breathing became rapid, and she even felt that the rhythm of breathing had become a countdown to death, like a bomb about to detonate, ticking, ticking, ticking hidden in her body.

When the "boom" explodes, she will have no mother.

Sang Tian couldn't stand here and think about it any longer. She urgently needed to go back to the ward to see Sang Jia, so she reluctantly smiled and took Lin Xue's hand: "Let's go back to the ward first, or the old lady will get suspicious."

******

As soon as Sang Tian and Lin Xue entered the ward, they saw Sang Jia covering her mouth.

Sang Tian glanced at her: "What's wrong?"

Sangjia said vaguely, "I have a toothache."

Sang Tian: "Come on, old lady! I can already smell the orange in your mouth, don't eat it alone, share it with me."

Yang Jingsi saw that Sang Tian wasn't competing about eating oranges anymore, she smiled and took out the remaining half of the orange from behind her back and stuffed it into her mouth: "I won't give it to you! I will give you all the yelling you just said." Mom is scared out of psychological trauma, you have to pay a price?"

Lin Xue took out an orange from the bag: "I'll peel it for you."

Sang Jia: "Xue, don't get used to her stink. She is angry with you because of glutinous rice cakes. What about puffs next time? Butterfly cakes?"

Yang Jing thought happily: "Who can look like a butterfly cake? What kind of face is that?"

Lin Xue smiled, and still peeled the orange and handed it to Sang Tian. Sang Jia reminded: "Eat some yourself, you see your face is sharp, is it because you are too tired from training during this period?"

Xue Lin: "Don't worry about it without you, I'm trying to control my weight."

But still obediently stuffed a slice of orange into his mouth.

Sang Tian stuffed the orange into his mouth almost at the same time as Lin Xue, but his face was wrinkled: "Why is it so sour?! It's so sour like the pickled cucumber that Concubine Hua asked Song Zhi to give her to eat!"

Yang Jingsi let out a sigh: "Just now, did you scare us and get retribution? The one my godmother and I ate was sweet."

Sang Tian's teeth were sore, she covered her cheeks and asked Lin Xue, "Don't you feel sore?"

Lin Xue froze for a moment.

"...It's okay, I'm not afraid of acid." She said vaguely.

******

Then it was time for Yang Jingsi and Sang Jia to chase dramas, and they started to chase Sang Tian and Lin Xue out: "Where should you two go on a date?"

Lin Xue thought that Sang Tian was going to stay in the ward, but she didn't expect Sang Tian to drag her out after saying a few words, and asked, "Where are you going to take me to breathe?"

Xue Lin: "Would you like to go?"

Sang Tian nodded: "It's better to be here with Yang Jingsi in such a ignorant state than me here. If I show any flaws, the old lady should really be suspicious."

Lin Xue: "Then I will take you to the video game city tomorrow."

Sang Tian was taken aback: "When it comes to ventilation, it shouldn't be forest oxygen bar, river beach hot spring..."

Lin Xue: "In the video game city, you can fight hamsters, boxing, and zombies. You can relieve stress more." She stretched out her finger to hook Sang Tian's clothes, and looked at Sang Tian eagerly: "I have been training since I was a child. None have been."

Sang Tian thought to himself, this wolf cub is actually very good at it.

If he really went to some forest and river beach, when Sang Tian thought of Sang Jia's emotions, he might stay at home sad and sad, and he would not want to go, but where is the video game city? That was Lin Xue's childhood regret!

Sang Tian patted Lin Xue's head: "Okay, we'll go tomorrow."

******

That night, Lin Xue accompanied Sang Tian back home. Sang Tian was still thinking about Sang Jia's surgery, but she still couldn't fall asleep. When it was dawn, Lin Xue hugged her behind her: "If you can't sleep, get up first." Bar."

At this time, someone actually rang the doorbell.

Sang Tian was very vigilant: "It can't be that Di Ruoxin has finished eating snacks, so she came to the door early in the morning?"

After all, her residence has been exposed to Di Ruoxin now.

Lin Xue: "... how could she finish eating so quickly, don't worry, it's my order for takeaway breakfast."

That being said, she brought in a takeaway breakfast, and quickly placed an order on tb to send to Di Ruoxin.

After Sang Tian washed up, he sat down at the dining table, and Lin Xue had already arranged the soy milk and fried dough sticks.

Sang Tian picked up the deep-fried dough stick that was as thick as his forearm, and was startled: "Fried dough stick? How many years have you not eaten fried dough stick?"

Lin Xue recalled: "Almost 20 years?"

She smiled at Sang Tian: "Now I'm liberated."

Pick up a deep-fried dough stick dipped in soy milk and feed it into his mouth.

Sang Tian saw Lin Xue frowned subtly.

How restrained was Xue Lin's diet before?Go out to eat hot pot with Sang Tian and the others, and order clear soup pot and have to rinse the water again.Sang Tian knew that according to her eating habits for so many years, she was not used to such greasy food long ago.

Starting from the promise to Sang Tian not to check on Chao Xi and to stay away from the arena, but it was barbecue and fritters, as if deliberately cutting off all the ways for him to return to the arena.

Why?Because I'm afraid I still can't let go.

Sang Tian forced a smile and asked Lin Xue, "Is it delicious?"

Xue Lin: "It's delicious."

She tore a fritter again and dipped it in soy milk, and even hooked Gou Sangtian's chin: "Open your mouth."

Sang Tian tried his best to smile and opened his mouth to take a bite.

In fact, this fritters are average, soft and not crispy enough, and the soy milk also smells of not-so-fresh bean dregs.

But when Lin Xue asked her: "Is it delicious?" Sang Tian still smiled: "It's delicious."

She means it.

She even cherished the smell of bean dregs left in her mouth, because it was the proof that she and Lin Xue were still alive and could still sit and have breakfast here.

Is it enough?

******

After breakfast, Lin Xue called Sang Tian: "Go and sleep for a while."

Sang Tian: "Aren't you going to the video game city today?"

Lin Xue: "...can you show me a video game city that opens at seven o'clock in the morning?"

Sang Tian: "Uh."

Lin Xue: "Come on, I haven't trained for two days, I have to watch the training video to find out how I feel, I can't concentrate when you are here."

Sang Tian had no choice but to walk into the bedroom alone.

She felt that this was Lin Xue's strategy. She was tired from not sleeping much for several consecutive nights, and the sleepiness caused by the blood rushing to her stomach after breakfast finally made her close her eyes.

In the dream, she was standing outside an ice rink, and saw that there were Dai Qing, Di Ruoxin, and Ivanova on the ice rink, but there was no Lin Xue.

Where did Xue Lin go?Shouldn't Lin Xue be on the ice with them?Sang Tian panicked in his dream too.

She looked around, looked around, and finally saw Lin Xue in the last row of the auditorium through the crowd with blurred faces.

She ran over in a hurry: "Lin Xue..." She stretched out her hand and realized that it was not Lin Xue, it was just a wax figure with an empty shell, which was thrown to the ground by her and shattered. God's eyes are still intact, staring at Sang Tian firmly.

Sang Tian woke up suddenly.

She touched the mobile phone next to the bed and took a look. She had slept for less than two hours.

Enough is enough, she dare not sleep anymore.

When she put on her coat and opened the bedroom door, her mind was still full of the dream just now.

The empty eyes in the dream made her keep thinking: Is it really right for her to drag Lin Xue to live with her like this?

When her mind was in a mess, she smelled the fragrance of lavender.

She looked at the balcony through the living room and was stunned.

Lin Xue helped her wash all the dirty clothes piled up at home, and she was drying them on the balcony at the moment. When she heard the movement, she turned her head and smiled at her: "Are you awake?"

Sang Tian was speechless.

It turns out that the feeling of spring is already so deep before I know it.

Through the balcony window, you can see clusters of rich fresh green on the branches.Today's weather is exceptionally good, and the transparent sun makes everything translucent.

Lin Xue also became translucent in the fragrance of flowers, chirping birds, and bursts of lavender laundry detergent.

She was standing there in a loose sweater, her hair was tied up at the back of her head, a strand of hair fell out of her ear, and she was holding up a clothes rail to send up one of Sang Tian's pajamas.

Even though it was such an everyday scene, Sang Tian felt like crying.

She walked over and hugged Lin Xue's waist.

Lin Xue: "Do you want to take off the pajamas and let me wash them again? How did I offend you?"

Sang Tian smiled: "You robbed me of my quilt last night."

I hope Lin Xue didn't hear the nasal sound in her laughter.

Lin Xue in her arms was warm and soft.

Unlike in her previous life when she sent Sanja to be cremated, it was cold and hard.

If Lin Xue's dream is ruined, she and Lin Xue can live a good life in exchange for standing in such an ordinary and trivial daily life, shouldn't she be content?

Sang Tian felt that he was going crazy, being pulled infinitely between these two thoughts.

After Lin Xue finished drying the clothes, she gently hugged Sang Tian back: "Go and change, don't think about anything today, just relax, okay?"

******

When the two went to the video game city, even though it was the weekend, because it was only after nine o'clock in the morning, it was empty and there was almost no one there.

Lin Xue pointed to a row of machines: "Are you good at these?"

Sang Tian picked up the gun to shoot zombies: "My sister will show you the real skills today!"

In fact, when Sang Tian was in school, she was busy studying and didn't come to the video game city very often, but Lin Xue specially brought her here to relax today, so she can't stir up the atmosphere?

And even though she came less often, she was better than Lin Xue who never came, right?

She waved to Lin Xue: "Follow sister, sister will cover you."

Lin Xue: "What if my sister can't cover me?"

Sang Tian said boldly: "Then sister will wear a third uniform for you to see!"

Sang Tian sometimes felt that the existence of this world was to deliberately slap her in the face.

She overlooked an important fact, that is, although Lin Xue has never been to the video game city, she is a professional athlete with excellent hand-eye coordination. Although she has been here a few times, she is a weak chicken who only passed the college physical education exam three times .

No matter how many rounds she played, Lin Xue rushed forward alone holding the gun. She was scratched to death by the zombie's three claws and lay dead on the ground.

Sang Tian put down the gun: "Actually, there is something wrong with my gun."

The wolf cub handed over the gun in his hand innocently: "Then change it?"

Sang Tian patted the back of her hand: "Actually, I don't think it's interesting to beat zombies. Why don't we catch dolls?"

The rhythm of the claw machine is quite slow, and there is no problem that the hands cannot keep up with the eyes. She can always do it, right?

She had already figured it out, if she could get her face back on the claw machine, she would trick the wolf cub into wearing a uniform for her to see!

As a result, as soon as she stood in front of the claw machine, two burly men pushed her away: "Get out of the way, let's go first."

Sang Tian looked up, and saw that the two men were at least three heads taller than her. They were 1.9 meters tall. They were covered in sinewy flesh. A large skull tattoo was exposed on the neckline, and gaudy arms were exposed from the rolled-up sleeves, spreading to the back of their hands. superior.

Sang Tian's heart skipped a beat.

Sang Tian had seen many people of this type in her previous life. Apart from when she was running social news, and when she was checking Yun En, many of them had come to her.

At that time, when many people advised Sang Tian to forget it, they said that these people were too dangerous. They could pick up Sang Tian with one hand like a little chicken and shake it three times for fun. .

Of course, in the end, those people didn’t use violence. She wasn’t picked up like a chick and thrown around three times, but she was finally forced to stand on the top of the building. Into the wind from all directions.

Sang Tian lowered his head and smiled.

What kind of person is she?In her previous life, she was clearly driven to a dead end by these people. In this life, when she saw them jumping in the line of the uncle when buying fried dough sticks, or robbing the seat of a girl with dysmenorrhea on the subway, she dared to go up alone when no one dared to speak out. Those who pointed at these people's noses and scolded them.

She is Sister Sang who is not afraid of anything, that's why she dared to ask Lin Xue to investigate Chao Xi's matter with her.

But now, it was she who pulled Lin Xue to give up.

This energy was gone, and Sang Tian found that she suddenly became timid. When facing these people, for the first time, she was manipulated by the feeling of cowardice and backed away.

Lin Xue came over frowning, and she even gave Lin Xue a hand: "Forget it."

But the wolf cub still has an unruly wildness: "Why?"

Sang Tian was afraid that Lin Xue would fight with these two people. She still remembered the last time Lin Xue fought with the wretched man. It was obvious that Lin Xue was going to suffer. Just when she was about to reach out to stop her, a childish voice sounded: "Yes, Why forget it."

Sang Tian saw that walking towards them was a high school girl, wearing a school uniform with a ponytail and glasses, she looked like a school bully in everyone's impression, the kind who could appear as a typical character in TV dramas.

Sang Tian wondered why Xueba came here?Exam stress too much to relax?

She was afraid that the girl would also be targeted by the big guy, and just as she was about to let her go quickly, the two big guys bowed their heads respectfully: "Sister Ran!"

At this time, the manager of the video game city also ran over in a suit, holding two boxes full of coins in his hand: "Sister Ran, you are here! Everything is ready for you!"

Sister Ran walked up to two burly men, her petite figure was not as tall as their muscular chest muscles: "Didn't I tell you not to make those stinky mistakes of the past? First, recite the core values ​​of socialism to me." once."

Two burly men bowed their heads obediently: "Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony and freedom..."

Sister Ran: "Then what should you do now?"

The two big men walked up to Sang Tian and bowed their heads: "We were wrong! Please forgive me!"

The sound like a bell almost knocked Sang Tian back two steps.

Sister Ran said to Sang Tian: "Don't worry, they are no longer on the same path as before, and now they listen to my advice to work in the stray animal protection organization, but some of the stinky problems in the past have not been completely corrected, and they have to beat them from time to time. "

Sister Ran showed Sang Tian the photos on her phone. The two big men were holding two kittens no bigger than their palms, with girlish expressions on their faces.

Sang Tian: "...how did you subdue them?"

Sister Ran pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose, her eyes became far away.

The manager of the video game city said: "Because Sister Ran is a legend in the world, the highest score of every machine here is made by her. Who dares to refuse?"

Sang Tian looked at Sister Ran: "So you came to the video game city early on Saturday morning? And you don't go to class? Sister, let me tell you that you will regret it..."

She didn't know how many five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulations she had read before she was admitted to R University. How could this little girl be so wasteful of time?

As a result, the manager of the video game city whispered in her ear: "Sister Ran has already passed the math competition and was admitted to University B. Those courses in high school are too easy for her."

...Okay Excuse me!

Sister Ran asked the two big men: "Why did you come so early today?"

One of the burly men showed an extremely aggrieved look, and pointed at the claw machine: "I want Bingdundun! Sister Ran, we have been playing alone for half a day since you didn't come yesterday, and all the coins are folded here!"

In fact, Sang Tian was also interested in Bingdundun, a commemorative product for a certain large-scale sports event held in Beicheng, and the popularity has remained high until now. The most important thing is that there is no place to buy it. It is simply the "" The treasure of the town hall".

Sister Ran glanced at the two big guys: "How many times have I told you, don't compete with this kind of machine that doesn't rely on technology. The parameters of others are all set. If you don't swallow your coins, whose coins will be swallowed?"

It turned out that the claw machine where Bingdundun was located was not the type with telescopic claws, but the numbers randomly selected by the turntable on the console below.

Sister Ran called the manager over directly: "Is there any other game that can win this Bingdundun?"

Unexpectedly, Sister Ran dotes on his little brother.

Of course the manager didn't want to confess Bingdundun easily, but when he heard sister Ran's tone, he wanted to collect points again. This is a living sign that his video game city is better than all the businesses nearby!

He pointed at the dancing machine: "If you break your previous record, you can also win the same type of ice piers."

Sister Ran frowned subtly.

The record of this dance machine was made by her before. She became famous with this dance machine back then, and the video is still widely circulated on a certain music.

Even for a master like Sister Ran, that match was her super-level performance, her pinnacle work, so that the record fell asleep for two years, and even she herself has never broken it.

But her two younger brothers clasped their palms together in front of their chests and looked at Sister Ran expectantly.

Sister Ran started to take off her school uniform jacket.

Sang Tian was slightly disappointed, she couldn't get Bingdundun, she couldn't make the old lady happy, the old lady wanted one very much before.

At this moment, Xue Lin said, "Wait a minute."

Sister Ran and her younger brother looked at Lin Xue.

Lin Xue asked the manager: "If I break her record, I can also take this ice pie, right?"

Manager: "Of course, we have fair competition here."

Lin Xue also took off her coat and threw it to Sang Tian, ​​who nodded at Sister Ran: "Then come on, let's compete."

Sister Ran glanced at Lin Xue up and down: "Have you played the dancing machine before?"

Sang Tian felt that Sister Ran's eyes were really poisonous, and at a glance she could see that Lin Xue was very unfamiliar with the video game city.

Lin Xue said frankly: "No."

Sister Ran: "Then I will give you [-] points."

Lin Xue: "Don't, I stand on any field, and I have never relied on others to let me win."

Sister Ran smiled: "Okay, I like it, but I won't bully you either."

She called the two younger brothers: "You play it first, let her get familiar with the gameplay, and practice the steps I taught you by the way."

The two younger brothers went up with a serious face. Unexpectedly, the height of nearly 1.9 meters jumped up quite nimbly. The super fast pace dazzled Sang Tian, ​​and the dancing machine shook for a while.

As a result, when the two got off the dancing machine, they looked like middle school students who didn't pass the exam and were going to see the head teacher. Sure enough, Sister Ran said sternly: "It's too slow, at least double the time to go back to practice."

Why does Sang Tian think these words are so familiar?Think about it—isn't this what Wen Xinzhu said to Lin Xue? !

Sure enough, it is not easy to be the top in any field.

Sister Ran asked Lin Xue: "Is the gameplay clear? But this song is too slow to get points. We have to play the racing mode, and the speed is only a few times faster than this. Can you do it?"

Lin Xue raised her eyelids lazily: "I still don't know how to write the word no."
