hold you in my arms tonight

Xie Yuan's ears were filled with many voices, he heard many people calling his name, he recognized Jiang Xun's voice from the chaotic voices, and saw Jiang Xun smiling at him in the whiteness.

Xie Yuan suddenly felt that he couldn't breathe. He gasped for breath, his hands unconsciously wanted to grab something, sat up suddenly, and found that he was already covered in cold sweat.

He is now in the temporary ward of the aid station, and there is an indwelling needle on the back of his hand, which fell off because of his too much movement, and blood oozes.

Xie Yuan saw Ren Cheng, he said to himself: "Ren Cheng, I had a terrible dream."

Ren Cheng didn't speak, Xie Yuan looked around in bewilderment, he was silent for a long time, after a while he raised his head and said in despair: "It turns out...it's not a dream."

"My condolences are changing, Xie Yuan," Ren Cheng said.

Xie Yuan lifted the quilt. His body was too weak, and he fell down as soon as his feet touched the ground.

Ren Cheng went to help him, and begged: "You should have a good rest first, your body will collapse if you continue like this!"

"Where's Jiang Xun?" Xie Yuan asked, "Where is he now?"

Ren Cheng said: "It will be placed in a temporary mortuary at the aid station."

Xie Yuan wanted to go out, he dragged his heavy body, walked out slowly but firmly, he said to Ren Cheng: "Take me there, I will take him home..."

Ren Cheng reached out to support him, and took him to find Jiang Xun.

Countless martyrs were placed in the temporary mortuary of the rescue station. They could not be contacted with their family members and could not confirm their identities, so they were cremated immediately, packed in small boxes and labeled as unidentified.If the family members can be contacted, the family members will sign the cremation and take them away.

Xie Yuan slowly approached Jiang Xun, the white cloth blocked all the sight between him and Jiang Xun.

Xie Yuan was timid, he was afraid and didn't want to face it anymore, he wanted to escape from here, but he was stopped by Ren Cheng just as he turned around.

"Face it, Xie Yuan," Ren Cheng said, "You will have to face it sooner or later, and you won't be able to escape."

Xie Yuan clenched his fists tightly, and Ren Cheng pushed him a step forward like a marionette. When he approached Jiang Xun, his whole face was already stiff and distorted.

He finally stretched out his hand tremblingly, lifted the white cloth, Jiang Xun's face came into view, and Xie Yuan almost collapsed in an instant, leaning on the table and weeping uncontrollably.

He cried for a long time, his voice was already torn.

Suddenly, his stomach hurt like a fire, he turned around and ran a few steps, vomiting out the bile and stomach acid.

Ren Cheng couldn't bear it, so he went over and patted him on the back lightly.

Xie Yuan felt a pain in his stomach, his internal organs were twisted together, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Ren Cheng watched and had no other choice.

Xie Yuan leaned against Ren Cheng and straightened his body. With scarlet eyes, he walked slowly to Jiang Xun. He bent down, pressed his forehead against Jiang Xun's, and whispered in a tender and affectionate tone between lovers: "Jiang Xun, I will take you with me." You go home, where I am, is your home."

The place where Xie Yuan was was Jiang Xun's home.

Xie Yuan hugged Jiang Xun for a long time, finally he stood up and said to Ren Cheng, "Arrange for the cremation."

"Okay," Ren Cheng said.

The place where the relief station arranges for cremation is in the funeral parlor on the outskirts of Minchuan, several hours' drive from the relief station.

Xie Yuan put on clean clothes, he didn't want Jiang Xun to see his sloppy appearance.

He sat in the car for a long time without showing any expression or speaking, and finally arrived at the funeral home.

He watched Jiang Xun push into the cremation room with his own eyes, and when he came out again, he was turned into ashes and packed in a small box.

Xie Yuan took the box, kissed it, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Back at the rescue station, Ren Cheng had already started to arrange for the return to the imperial capital.

Xie Yuan held Jiang Xun's ashes and sat quietly all the time, when suddenly the female nurse came in leading a little boy.

"This kid keeps saying that he wants to find someone named Xie Yuan."

Xie Yuan moved, and looked at the little boy at the door.

Xiao Nan looked around the room for a while, and when he woke up, he knew that Teacher Jiang was no longer there, but he remembered the promise between him and Teacher Jiang.

Xiao Nan walked up to Xie Yuan and asked him, "Are you Xie Yuan?"

"I am," Xie Yuan's voice was torn into a hoarse voice.

Xiao Nan said: "Teacher Jiang asked me to help him find a man named Xie Yuan. He said he was a man of beauty, he said he wanted Xie Yuan to go on the journey, and he also said that he wanted Xie Yuan to live on his behalf."

Xie Yuan turned his face away in despair, he could no longer shed tears, he could only tremble with heartache.

He didn't think that Jiang Xun was at the end of his life, and what he wanted was for him to live.

But Jiang Xun, why don't you think about it?

Don't think about it, how will Xie Yuan survive without Jiang Xun?

Seeing that Xie Yuan was sad, Xiao Nan continued, "Uncle Xie Yuan, don't be too sad. Teacher Jiang said he loves you the most."

Xie Yuan said hoarsely: "Uncle also... loves him the most."

Xiao Nan said: "Teacher Jiang hopes that you will live a good life, you must listen to him and live a good life!"

Xie Yuan gritted his teeth and endured, after a while, there was a smell of blood in his mouth.

He asked with difficulty: "What's your name?"

"Xiao Nan, my name is Xiao Nan, Nan from the south."

Xie Yuan remembered that Jiang Xun had an older brother, the one who died in the Chong'an earthquake many years ago, named Jiang Nan.

Xie Yuan looked at Xiao Nan and asked, "Will you go with me? I think, take good care of you."

Xiaonan thought for a while and nodded.

He said: "I believe in Teacher Jiang, and Teacher Jiang believes in you, so I believe in you too."

Xie Yuan glanced at Ren Cheng, indicating that he can arrange to return to the imperial capital.

The next day, Xie Yuan returned to the imperial capital with Jiang Xun's ashes and the little boy he saved with his life.

The Minchuan earthquake has been completely over, and all search and rescue work has come to an end. The people of the whole country will accompany the people of Minchuan in the post-disaster reconstruction work.

The news began to report that more than 3 people died in the Minchuan earthquake, and the missing persons were not counted, property losses were not counted, and other losses were not counted.

In the land, there is yet another city that will live in the shadow of sorrow and pain for many years to come.

Just like Chong'an back then.

Maybe many people will forget it in the future, but for those who have experienced this disaster, the next 50 years will be a knot in their hearts, and they will never be able to let go of it for the rest of their lives.

After the Minchuan earthquake came to an end, in the post-disaster reconstruction construction, Xie Huaisheng, chairman of the first jewelry empire Huanyu Group in the imperial capital, donated 500 to Minchuan in the name of the group.Later, Xie Qing, the second son of the Xie family, donated 1000 million in his own name.Famous actress Meng Yan donated [-] million.

No one knew that the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Yuan, the heir of the Huanyu Group, had donated all of his personal property.

Xie Yuan took Xiao Nan back to Nanshan Yun District.

There was no trace of a stranger in his whole body, he was decadent and tired, and his words no longer had a trace of warmth.

He handed over Xiaonan to Xie Huaisheng.

"Father, this is Xiao Nan," Xie Yuan said, "I want to ask you, Xie's family, to take care of this child for me. Please."

Xie Huaisheng was a little strange to this lifeless son, he asked: "Have you never considered yourself as a member of Xie's family?"

Xie Yuan pulled out a warm smile, and said: "In my life, there are too few people who care about me, and I care even less. Except for grandpa, Xie's family, it doesn't mean anything to me."

Xie Huaisheng felt a tingling pain in his heart, he hadn't felt such emotion for many years.

"Father, from now on, Xiao Nan, I'll leave it to you."

Xie Yuan bent down and bowed, this was the first time he made such a salute to Xie Huaisheng.

After a long time, he straightened up, turned around, and left.

Xie Huaisheng watched Xie Yuan leave, looked at his distraught back, Xie Huaisheng held Xiao Nan's hand firmly, he thought that if there was a next life, he would try to learn how to be a good father.

Xie Yuan walked to the door and met Xie Qing.

Xie Qinghong looked at him and asked him: "Dog Xie Yuan, do you not plan to go home after you leave?"

Xie Yuan didn't respond, he didn't hear clearly, after returning from Minchuan, his hearing dropped a lot, and he often couldn't understand what others said.

Xie Qing said: "Dog Xie Yuan, I will never call you Dog Xie Yuan again, why don't you go home?"

Xie Yuan smiled at him, but didn't speak.

Xie Qing said: "Xie Yuan, I'm serious. I gave you Huanyu, so I won't compete with you for the family property, okay? Although you bullied me and didn't treat me well at all, but... having a brother is better than not having one." powerful."

Xie Yuan said to him: "Goodbye, Xie Qing."

Xie Yuan walked away, Xie Qing looked at his back.

He always felt that Xie Yuan was still a dog Xie Yuan, he didn't say a word of truth, what he said was goodbye, but in fact he never saw each other again.

Xie Yuan carried Jiang Xun's ashes back to the rental house where he and Jiang Xun lived in college. He had secretly bought this place a few years ago, and originally planned to surprise Jiang Xun in the future.

There are too many memories of him and Jiang Xun in this rental house.

Xie Yuan was lying on the bed in the bedroom, he looked at the ceiling, and Jiang Xun's appearance gradually became clearer in his mind.He reached out his hand to touch Jiang Xun's face again.

He slept.

It was already evening when I woke up, the sky had already darkened, and I couldn't see anything clearly in the room.Xie Yuan turned over and sat up, the feeling of loneliness swallowed him.

He suddenly shouted to the kitchen outside: "Jiang Xun, I want to eat egg noodles with tomatoes today!"

No one has responded.

There was a throbbing pain in his heart, and he wanted to cry and found that his eyes were dry. It turned out that there were no more tears to shed.

Xie Yuan took Jiang Xun's ashes from the bedside table and held them in his arms. He continued to say to him willfully, "What should I do, Jiang Xun, I eat tomato and egg noodles."

Jiang Xun, can you speak well?

I just want to eat egg noodles with tomatoes.

Xie Yuan raised a bleak and hopeless smile, and there was no emotion in his eyes anymore.

When Jiang Xun died, he asked someone to tell him to live a good life, but how did he say how to live a good life?

Xie Yuan looked at the urn, and he asked him: "Jiang Xun, I want to ask you, if the person who died today was Xie Yuan, would you live well?"

You tell me, will you live well?

How are you going to live well?

Xie Yuan sighed and said, "Look, you can't tell."
