Chapter 330 The world is in tatters, and the puppy is mending
In early February, it is the middle of winter.
Tang'an City is decorated with lanterns and streamers everywhere, and the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger.
Tang'an is known as "the most humane city among the first-tier cities", not without reason.
Su Chengyi walked out of the archery hall and looked up at the sky. Different from the bright and festive decorations on the streets, the dome was gloomy and gray, which is the most common thing in winter.
These days, he spends almost all his free time in the archery hall.
However, Xu Yang, the initiator of this event, is completely obsessed with the three-minute popularity. After coming twice, he no longer wants to waste time on boring bows and strings.
He just likes the handsomeness of archers who are always accurate, and does not like the dullness and tedium of practicing over and over again.
Su Chengyi didn't care about this. When he focused on the bullseye, his mood was as calm as the sea.
You can even feel a bit of Zen.
If he stays like this for a few more days, he may be able to observe the mind and realize the Tao, and escape into Buddhism.
There is nothing there, so where is the dust?
It’s a pity that the mortal relationship is not over yet.
Su Chengyi looked at the eight missed calls on the screen and thought to himself, but still called back.
“Hello?!”
Chu Qingmian on the other side of the receiver was furious.
“Huh?”
Su Chengyi pretended to be calm.
"What are you doing! You didn't even answer the phone. You promised to go to the amusement park today. Oh, you're going to the amusement park!!!"
Chu Qingmian was almost angry. Biting his own tongue.
"I forgot."
Su Chengyi told the truth, he indeed forgot.
But who would have thought that Miss Chu would make such an unreasonable request?
After the lavish birthday party, Chu Qingmian was very dissatisfied. After criticizing her old father, she announced her next plan.
That’s it—live your birthday all over again.
She said confidently that the birthday party was for outsiders, and the real birthday was only celebrated with close friends.
So I planned today’s activity, a one-day trip to the amusement park.
Su Chengyi thought it was nothing, since he was not very busy anyway.
And Miss Chu seems to be very obsessed with the amusement park. If you think about it, you will know that it is probably the shadow of childhood again, and she just needs to make up for it as an adult.
Others had no objections either. Xu Yang himself was the type who loved amusement park projects, Han Bing had always been spoiled by Chu Qingmian, and Lin Tong’s temperament made it even less likely that he would have any objections.
Originally, she wanted to call Sister Lin, but when she heard this, Sister Lin felt like she was facing a formidable enemy and shook her head like a rattle.
Everyone thought it was because she was afraid of spending money or didn’t like to go to crowded places, so they kept urging her to come and play together.
Lin Zhiwan was about to lose her temper and reluctantly agreed. Lin Tong had to help explain that Sister Lin was afraid of heights.
Su Chengyi thought it was a bit funny at first. She had previously thought that Sister Lin had an all-round personality and had mastered all survival skills.
But Lin Tong then talked about the origin of fear of heights.
When she was a child, Lin Zhiwan was not afraid of heights. There was a wild jujube tree on the mountain behind the village, which tasted sweet and sour, but it always grew in relatively steep places.
Many people in the village will take advantage of this season to hunt dates and then carry them to the town to sell them. Generally speaking, it is a good income.
Lin Zhiwan is small and thin, which gives her an advantage when climbing trees, so she always joins the jujube hunting team.
Although she looked calm on the surface, she was still a little worried about falling, not because she was injured, but because she was afraid that no one would be able to do the work at home if she was injured.
The result is that what you are afraid of will come.
There were only so many jujube trees in total, and there were so many people in the village. Lin Zhiwan was still a child, so there was no way she could win over others.
She had no choice but to walk around in circles in the mountains, looking for a place where no one would find her.
The hard work paid off, and she actually found a tree that no one knew about. It was in a very remote location and was close to the cliff.
When Lin Tong said this, Su Chengyi's heart was already in her throat.
To be honest, it's almost obvious what happens next.
This is indeed the case.
Lin Zhiwan really rolled down the mountain all the way!
——Fortunately, there were many branches and vines along the way, which relieved her stress.
It just rained a few days ago, and the soil on the mountain is soft, not the reinforced concrete in the steel forest.
But despite this, she was still seriously injured and could not stand up no matter how hard she tried.
And because he couldn't speak, he couldn't even call for help.
She disappeared for two days and two nights.
Lin Tong said that he was scared to death at that time. He ran up and down the mountain with a flashlight all night looking for someone, for fear that she would be eaten by a wolf.
Furthermore, Lin Zhiwan couldn’t hear and couldn’t speak, so it was even more difficult to find someone.
Fortunately, there were many people in the village. After a comprehensive search, we finally found the dying Lin Zhiwan at the foot of the mountain.
Since then, Sister Lin has been very afraid of heights.
Su Chengyi thought, no wonder she acted so panicked on the last flight back to Tang'an from Beijing.
I originally thought it was my first time flying on a plane and I was nervous, but I didn’t expect such a childhood shadow story.
The most terrifying thing is probably not the moment when you fall from the mountain, but the long two days and two nights when a person falls alone at the foot of the cliff.
Every time I stand on a high place, I will recall that humid, dark, hopeless and helpless memory.
After hearing this story, the few guys who were making noises immediately stopped.
Chu Qingmian apologized to Lin Zhiwan with tears in her eyes, which made Sister Lin so anxious that she almost spoke.
Back to the phone.
"Have you forgotten? Then where are you now."
Chu Qingmian's tone quickly changed from anger to grievance.
Su Chengyi could imagine her pursed lips and unhappy look. He thought about it and switched the voice call to video.
The other party picked up quickly, but it was Fu Rui who was in charge of taking the photo. The boy put on new overalls, with the leash dangling behind him.
Su Chengyi made a "whew" sound at the screen, and it immediately responded with "woof woof!"
The camera turned around and Miss Chu was sitting on a park bench with the dog leash in her hand.
The unhappy look on her face has not yet gone away, and she is waiting for Su Chengyi's explanation.
So Su Chengyi moved the camera and showed her the quiver on his shoulder.
“I just came out of the archery hall.”
Chu Qingmian had already guessed most of it when she saw his casual sportswear.
These days he runs to the archery hall whenever he has free time, just like Hou Yi who suddenly received the task of shooting the sun!
Otherwise, the role of Hawkeye in the Avengers will be replaced, and the Elf Prince in The Lord of the Rings is also possible.
Seeing that the other party's expression softened, Su Chengyi continued:
"I think the amusement park is more interesting at night."
"Why?"
Chu Qingmian He asked curiously as he was easily led away.
“Because there are many projects that are only open at night.”
Su Chengyi said slowly, he lowered his head and glanced at his watch.
Like a haunted house or something.
Of course, you can’t say this to the eldest lady now.
"It's still early. If we go there, we can actually play on both sides."
"Then come over and walk Furui with me first, and then Uncle Gao will send us there."
Chu Qingmian bent down and lifted Furui onto her lap, holding its paws and waving to him.
Su Chengyi took a taxi. The archery hall was not far from Qingjiang District, and it only took ten minutes to arrive.
Fu Rui saw him from a distance and struggled to run over.
Su Chengyi came closer, squatted down and waved.
Chu Qingmian then let go of the rope, and Furui, who was free, immediately ran over.
After a few months, this guy was growing so well that Su Chengyi almost fell to the ground without being thrown by it.
The Chu family's Feng Shui breeders also raise dogs. It is raised like a racing dog. The hair on its body has no impurities and feels great to the touch.
Su Chengyi deliberately pulled Furui's hair upside down until it stood upright, like a hedgehog with explosive hair.
Chu Qingmian, who was following him, looked funny and couldn't help but take a photo with his phone.
Under the lens of the mobile phone, Fu Rui, who was not very smart to begin with, looked even more dull and not very smart.
Su Chengyi laughed and praised:
"Good shot."
"Really?"
Chu Qingmian's expression changed immediately after receiving the compliment. Very impressive.
She then pulled up the photo album on her phone and showed Su Chengyi one by one.
Su Chengyi looked at a few pictures in succession, and then fell into deep thought.
Are there any differences between these photos? ?
It's a bit like taking ten consecutive shots without changing the angle.
This is enough to prove how much Chu Qingmian likes it. I don’t know how much this guy missed the puppy when he was in school.
“Why are you going to the amusement park today?”
Su Chengyi wrapped the rope around his hand and stood up. "Please note that we are not going to the amusement park today, but celebrating my birthday today!"
Chu Qingmian objected.
“Okay, okay.”
Su Chengyi tugged on the rope and had no time to refute.
It felt like he was holding a wild bull running around in his hand, and he didn't know how Chu Qingmian controlled Furui.
"Because I have been busy with company affairs for the past two days, I got word that the TV station is preparing a new variety show."
Chu Qingmian sighed, for this One thing, she was so busy in the past two days that she almost flew into the sky.
"Huh? What show."
Su Chengyi was a little curious.
"I don’t know the specific format yet, but it’s a music variety show anyway! It’s a huge investment, so it’s probably going to be popular.
If nothing else happens, we’ll start discussing candidates in a few days."
Chu Qingmian thought for a while and then continued:
"You don't know Su Chengyi, being the boss is very tiring! With such resources, every artist team will come to you.
Give it to him, she is not satisfied; give it to her, he is not satisfied!
I might as well let a few of them form a group to debut! Just call it TFpeople! ”
You could hear the eldest lady’s resentment, Su Chengyi laughed, stretched out his hand to pinch her angry face.
But there was no way, the only thing she had to deal with in the future was It will be more and more complicated
Su Chengyi suddenly understood why Chu Yuanjiang had to hand over Xingxing Entertainment to her now, because without such a progressive process, it would be more difficult to accept it in the future. .
It can be considered a buffer period.
The advantage of a high-end community is that it is large enough to walk such a large dog.
After walking half a circle around the artificial lake, Furui was still in high spirits, but he was a little tired.
The sun was about to set, and more and more people were walking their dogs. Furui also met many of his usual puppy friends.
The Bernese Mountain Dog is famously docile and never bares its teeth and fights. Sometimes he won't get angry if he is provoked by a small dog, and he is as humble as a big dog.
So Furui has a good reputation in the community’s dog circle, and he has interacted with many puppies along the way.
Su Chengyi looked at the way it was trying to get things done, and couldn't help but think that it was indeed a dog following its owner.
If he was the one raising it, that would not necessarily be the case.
He will definitely be a world-weary puppy with no friends.
Chu Qingmian obviously knows all the dogs in the community. This young lady probably walks the dogs by herself when she is free.
“Lucky~ I just took a shower today, so fluffy!”
Lucky is a smiling angel Samoyed, like a fluffy little cake. Even Su Chengyi couldn't help but touch it twice.
"Pippi is out to play too!"
As the name suggests, Pippi is a husky with very intelligent eyes.
Su Chengyi was very sensible and did not touch it.
Facts proved that he was right, Chu Qingmian was successfully licked by it.
"Fu Rui can't step on Xiao Hu's feet!"
Xiao Hu is a corgi. To be honest, it is not as high as Pippi and Fu Rui's knees.
There is nothing you can do if you step on it.
After Fuli completed today's social goal, he had enough fun and finally walked back with satisfaction.
Su Chengyi couldn't help but think, why are you so reluctant? The Chu family is enough for you to run away without even bothering to go out.
The two of them and the dog had just taken two steps when they saw a golden retriever dog turning out of the intersection in front of them.
Golden retrievers are famous for being only friendly to humans and generally somewhat hostile to their own kind.
The motto of every golden retriever: "There is not a bad person in the world, and there is not a good dog in the world."
So Su Chengyi tugged on the rope and wanted to lead Fu Rui around.
Otherwise, if there were to be a fight, Furui, a coward and a scumbag, would be knocked to the ground by Golden Retriever in a second.
As a result, Furui was stuck in place, unwilling to move.
The same thing happened to the golden retriever on the opposite side. No matter how hard the owner pulled the rope, he would not move forward.
Chu Qingmian was stunned for a moment and suddenly lowered his eyes.
Su Chengyi noticed it, turned his head and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"The golden retriever puppy in front is Bobo."
Chu Qingmian whispered.
Bobo?
Su Chengyi searched for the name in his mind and suddenly recalled it.
Bobo is a friend that Xiaohua met when she went to the hospital before. I am afraid that she is the first and last friend in her life.
The two of them fell into silence at the same time because they thought about this matter.
Bobo suddenly ran over dragging his owner.
Su Chengyi thought that Bobo came to fight with Furui, but unexpectedly, he pounced directly on Chu Qingmian, wagging his tail happily.
“Oh, it’s you!”
Bobo’s mistress was also very happy to see them.
Chu Qingmian touched Bobo's head, raised her face and said with a smile:
"Hmm! What a coincidence. Bobo came out to play too."
"Not out to play, This guy has been wilting recently, so I asked for leave to take him to see a doctor.”
The hostess patted the dog on the back.
“Huh? Nothing happened!”
Chu Qingmian suddenly became nervous.
"No, no, there's no problem. I guess I just don't like the new dog food, this guy."
The hostess complained with a smile.
Chu Qingmian breathed a sigh of relief and also laughed.
Perhaps it was because Furui was still young, so Bobo did not quarrel with Furui like he quarreled with Xiaohua, but adopted the calm attitude of a big brother.
After the hostess took Bobo away, Chu Qingmian stopped smiling and sighed softly.
Of course Su Chengyi knew why she sighed.
After Xiaohua left, what was left was not only some hard-to-touch memories, but also traces that would appear from time to time in life.
Maybe it has secretly asked Bobo to touch it the next time we meet.
After thinking for a while, he asked:
"You rarely have time, do you want to go see Xiaohua?"
Although it is a sad thing, it must be faced anyway.
Chu Qingmian squatted on the ground and did not answer.
After a long time, as if she had gathered enough courage, she finally nodded.
Xiaohua’s grave is the same as before. It is a very small mound and hardly attracts any attention.
The noisy and lively Fu Rui seemed to realize something and became quiet at this time.
Su Chengyi held it and stood a few steps away, watching Chu Qingmian walk forward alone.
No other actions, just standing quietly for a while.
Su Chengyi looked at her back and suddenly thought that it was already February again.
It has been one year since I was reborn.
The first acquaintance she met when she was reborn was Chu Qingmian. A year later, she seemed to have changed a bit.
Looking back at the way she tilted her head and smiled at that time, I still feel that it is very healing.
“Su Chengyi!”
As if he had discovered something, Chu Qingmian suddenly turned around and called him.
Su Chengyi responded and stepped forward.
"Look."
Chu Qingmian squatted down and pointed at the mound.
A few foxtail grass actually grew on it, and they were swaying gently in the breeze.
For the first time, I think Setaria chinensis has such an vivid name.
Su Chengyi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth as if she saw Xiaohua's honest look wagging her tail again.
"Did you hear that?"
he said.
“What did you hear?”
Chu Qingmian stretched out her finger and gently poked the dogtail grass.
"The little flower is talking. It said, happy birthday Chu Qingmian."
After a long while, Chu Qingmian said "hmm".
Su Chengyi pretended not to see her tears falling down.
Sometimes I have to believe that there is a so-called "miracle of love" in the world. Otherwise, how can we explain these few fresh grasses that grow in the cold winter?
The love of a puppy is often the purest type, especially for a puppy that has never been loved. It is only in its last moments that it can be considered truly alive.
The world is in tatters, and puppies are mending it.
Thank you Xiaohua for the birthday gift.
Su Chengyi said in his heart.
Thanks to the book friend Mr. Power, the only divine bishop, with tail number 8751 and tail number 5287, for the reward! Thank you for your subscription and voting support~
