(The second one is sent, and everyone who has a recommendation ticket in their hands hopes to support it, thank you very much.) ）

At this time, Li Peng walked in from outside, carrying a KFC plastic bag in his hand. He walked two steps quickly to the middle-aged woman, and said with some embarrassment: "Auntie, I'm really sorry." Now is not the place to eat, I walked around the neighborhood and didn't see anything for sale, so I had to run to a short place to buy KFC, you can deal with it. ”

The middle-aged woman saw the beads of sweat oozing slightly on his forehead, took the plastic bag in his hand, and said with a smile on her face: "Look at you, sit down and rest." Honestly, I'm not hungry at all right now. Pingping hasn't woken up until now, how can I, a mother, be in the mood to eat. Wait a minute, when she wakes up, I'll eat with her. ”

After listening to the middle-aged woman's words, Liu Tao's heart trembled slightly. It is said that the hearts of parents in the world are pitiful, and this sentence is not false at all. When he had appendicitis and needed surgery, his parents were by his side 24 hours a day, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and he didn't dare to leave for a moment.

Perhaps hearing what her mother said, Wang Ping slowly woke up, and when she tried to open her eyes, she found that it was pitch black in front of her. Her mind flashed back to the scene when Sun Chao poured sulfuric acid on her last night, and she couldn't help but shout.

When the middle-aged woman heard the shout, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Wang Ping's hand and comforted: "Pingping, don't be afraid. Mom is here. ”

"Mom, am I blind? Why can't I see anything? Wang Ping asked in a panic. If she really can't see things, and her appearance is ruined, then her life in this world will be meaningless.

"Nope. Pingping, listen to your mother. You now have a bandage around your face, blocking your eyes, so you can't see anything. When the bandage is removed, you will see. The middle-aged woman explained with tears in her eyes.

"Mom, am I an ugly monster now?" Wang Ping then asked. Is there anything more important to an eighteen-year-old girl than her looks? Everyone has a love for beauty, let alone at such an age like a flower and jade.

"It's not. You just have a little bit of a wound on your face and need surgery. By the time the surgery is done, you'll be as beautiful as ever. The middle-aged woman endured the sadness in her heart and said in a very calm tone.

"Really? Does it cost a lot of money to have surgery? Wang Ping continued to ask.

"Don't worry, it won't cost a few bucks." When the middle-aged woman said this, she quickly changed the topic: "Pingping, Liu Tao and Li Peng from your class came to see you after knowing that you were injured. They're right next to you right now. ”

"Isn't Liu Tao from Class 5?" Wang Ping thought for a moment and asked rhetorically.

"You have such a good memory, I'm from Class 5. But Li Peng and I are buddies, and he wanted to come to see you, so he dragged me by the way. Liu Tao gave an answer.

"Thank you for coming to see me." Wang Pingqiang squeezed out a smile and said.

"There's no need to be so polite. You can recuperate here with peace of mind, and if you need anything, you can tell your aunt. Liu Tao said.

"Yes." Wang Ping nodded, and said with some sadness: "Seeing that there are still more than two months to go before the college entrance examination, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing." I don't know if I can still take the college entrance examination as scheduled. ”

"Yes, why not." Liu Tao hurriedly said: "As long as you recuperate with peace of mind, it is estimated that it will not take long to recover." When the time comes, you will naturally be able to take the college entrance examination. ”

"Really?" Wang Ping asked in disbelief.

"Yes. Trust me, soon you'll be fine. Liu Tao gave an affirmative answer. If he puts it in front of him, when he faces this kind of thing, he can only silently bless in his heart at most. But now, he has some family background and the ability to help others, so he naturally won't sit idly by.

Wang Ping heard what he said so surely, and didn't continue to ask at the moment, but just nodded.

"Li Peng, I still have something to do at noon, so I have to go first. You can stay here with Wang Ping and Auntie. Liu Tao looked at the time and stood up as he spoke. When he participated in the biology competition yesterday, he had already made an appointment with Cui Ying to have dinner together at noon today, and he definitely couldn't be late.

"Okay! If I don't go to class in the afternoon, you can ask my class teacher for a leave. Li Peng readily agreed.

"No problem." Liu Tao nodded and said to the middle-aged woman: "Auntie, I made an appointment with a friend to have dinner together at noon, and I will come to see you in the afternoon." ”

"You can do it if you have something to do." The middle-aged woman hurriedly said.

"Wang Ping, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and when you are discharged from the hospital, let Li Peng invite you to a big meal." Liu Tao said to Wang Ping.

"Yes." Wang Ping nodded.

Liu Tao waved at them, and then left the ward. Out of the hospital gate, he flagged down a taxi and headed for No. 1 Middle School.

Soon, the taxi arrived at the door of No. 1 Middle School. Liu Tao paid the fare and got out of the car.

Since it was not yet school day, there was no one at the door. Liu Tao waited at the door for a while before he heard the bell ringing after class.

One after another, students came out of the school.

Liu Tao looked around, and occasionally met one or two familiar faces, said hello to each other and left in a hurry.

After a while, Cui Ying walked out of it and walked in front of Liu Tao.

"Are you in a hurry?" Cui Ying asked a little embarrassed. Originally, she walked out as soon as she got out of class, but as soon as she left the classroom door, she was stopped by a boy from the next class, holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand to confess to her. This is not the first time such a situation has occurred, so she was not surprised, calmly rejected the other party's confession, and then turned to leave. However, because of such a delay, by the time she came out, the day students in the school were basically gone.

Liu Tao glanced at her, shook his head, and asked, "Where do you want to eat?" ”

"Let's find a restaurant nearby and have a bite to eat." Cui Ying replied.

"Okay!" As soon as Liu Tao finished speaking, he grabbed her hand carelessly, and then walked across the road.

Cui Ying didn't expect Liu Tao to behave like this at the first meal, and he happened to be caught by him without checking it. Originally, she wanted to break free, but when she saw Liu Tao looking at the traffic from side to side, she dispelled this idea. The reason why he grabbed her hand was nothing more than to cross the street.

Sure enough, when he crossed the road, Liu Tao naturally let go of his hand. I found a restaurant that looked good, and the two walked in one after the other.

After finding a table and sitting down, Liu Tao put the menu in front of Cui Ying and said with a smile: "You can order whatever you want." ”

Cui Ying was not polite, and ordered two stir-fried vegetables and two bowls of rice.

While waiting for the food to be served, Liu Tao poured a cup of tea for the other party and said with a smile: "It is said that the eighteenth year of the female college has changed, but I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have become a big beauty." ”

"Wasn't I pretty before?" Hearing Liu Tao's words, Cui Ying asked a little unhappily.

"Beautiful, of course pretty. But it's prettier now than it was then. Liu Tao hurriedly said. In a sense, Cui Ying was the first girl he ever liked. For the first time, for him, there was a special meaning. Originally, he thought that he would never see each other again in his life, but he didn't expect to meet here, which was really an opportunity given by God.

"Liu Tao, I want to ask you. When I left Binjiang City and went to study in other places, I wrote you several letters, why didn't you reply to me? Cui Ying took a sip of tea and asked lightly.

"Have you ever written to me? How did I not know? Hearing the question raised by the other party, Liu Tao was stunned for a moment, and then asked rhetorically.

"As soon as I arrived in the field, I wrote to you, and I wrote about seven or eight letters, but every time the mud cow entered the sea and there was no news." Cui Ying saw Liu Tao deny it, and then said.

"I really haven't heard from you. I was still thinking, why didn't you write to me? Do you know? At that time, I was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and I was hoping that you could write to me. Who knows that after waiting for half a year, you didn't write to me. Later, I went to high school and came to No. 4 Middle School. Liu Tao hurriedly explained.

"Wouldn't it? I did write to you at the time. Did you lose your faith on the way? Cui Ying said with some self-muttering speculation.

"Did you write your address correctly?" Liu Tao asked.

"The address must be right, and I'm not stupid." Cui Ying glanced at him and said.

In this case, it is really puzzling. Where did those letters go? Liu Tao then asked.

"How do I know. Could someone have intercepted my letter to you? Cui Ying guessed.

"This scenario is possible. At that time, I remember that the letters were all taken by the life committee. When Liu Tao said this, he asked another question: "Who was the life committee member of our class at that time?" ”

"After all this time, where will I remember." Cui Ying thought for a moment and said helplessly.

"I remember it was a woman, I just can't remember her name. If you see it one day, you might remember it. Liu Tao said.

"Whoever she is. I didn't think we would meet here. By the way, why did you end up in No. 4 Middle School? I remember that your academic performance was quite good at that time. Cui Ying asked with interest. When he was in junior high school, Liu Tao's academic performance was indeed among the best, if he kept it, it should not be a problem to be admitted to the first middle school, at least he had to take the ninth middle school.

Hearing this question, Liu Tao was choked for a while and didn't know how to answer. Does he want to sue the other party because of you and me that he went to the fourth middle school? No! He can't say that! In this case, it is estimated that Cui Ying will feel guilty in his heart, and he doesn't want to see her unhappy.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "I had an accident when I took the high school entrance examination. ”

When Cui Ying saw him say this, she was embarrassed to continue to ask questions. At this time, the meal was served, and the two chatted while eating, chatting about a series of past events that happened in junior high school, just like yesterday.

When the food was almost finished, Liu Tao got up and prepared to settle the bill. When he pulled out the money, he realized that the money in his pocket was not enough to pay the bill. Originally, he gave all the 100 yuan bills to Wang Ping's mother, and there was still some change left in his pocket. When I came, I spent another ten yuan on a taxi, and the rest of the money was naturally not enough to pay the bill.

"Boss, can you swipe your card here?" Liu Tao asked a little embarrassed.

The other party looked at Liu Tao and shook his head.

"Cui Ying, you wait for me here, I'll go out and get the money." Liu Tao smiled wryly and said.

"Boss, how much is it?" Cui Ying didn't answer his words, but asked at the boss.

"Thirty-eight in total." The boss clicked the calculator a few times and called out a number.

Cui Ying took out a hundred-yuan bill from her pocket and handed it over. The boss looked at the authenticity and then made change.

"Let's go." Cui Ying took the change and counted it, then put it in her pocket and said to Liu Tao.

"Didn't you say I'd invite you? You wait here, I'll go get the money and pay you back. Liu Tao said as he looked around to see where there were banks around.

"No, I don't. I'll invite you this time, and you'll invite me next. Cui Ying saw him like this and said with a smile.

"Okay! Then I'll invite you next time. When Liu Tao saw her say this, he no longer insisted on it at the moment. Anyway, the coming day is long, so there is no need to rush for a while.

"It's not early, I want to go back and take a nap. Are you okay? If nothing else, that's all for today. Cui Ying said.

Liu Tao shook his head and said, "When are you free?" I'm going to have to treat you to a meal anyway. ”

"Sunday. I'm free on Sunday. You can call me then. Cui Ying said this, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and said, "Tell me about your mobile phone number, and I'll call you." ”

"I haven't bought a phone yet. In this way, tell me your mobile phone number, and I'll buy a mobile phone and send you a text message later. Liu Taojian said.

"Okay! But what if you don't have a pen? Cui Ying asked helplessly.

"You say it twice, and I'll write it down with my head." Liu Tao said with a smile.

“138XXXXXXXX。” Cui Ying repeated it almost ten times until Liu Tao nodded.

"Okay, you can go back quickly, don't delay class." Cui Ying urged.

"Yes." Liu Tao nodded, grabbed Cui Ying's hand again, sent her to the school gate, and then waved goodbye.

When Cui Ying entered the school gate, he turned around and walked to the side of the road to stop a taxi and drove in the direction of the People's Hospital.

When passing a bank on the way, Liu Tao asked the driver to stop the car, and then he went to the ATM to withdraw 10,000 yuan. Then, when passing by a mobile phone store, he went in and bought a Nokia mobile phone, and by the way, he got a mobile phone card. After he came out of the store and got into the car, he saved Cui Ying's mobile phone number as soon as possible, and then sent her a text message.

Seeing that he was so busy, the driver couldn't help but shake his head. When he arrived at the destination, Liu Tao paid for the car, said goodbye to the driver, and then got out of the car.
