No. 8 Pawnshop

Chapter 56: Reality

When the nurse opened the curtains and the morning sun fell into the ward, Xia Yu slowly opened her eyes, “Good morning, Cheng Dong.” He was not the one he was familiar with bit.

Xia Yu just nodded slightly, did not speak, got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom, the nurse also thought he wanted to go to the toilet.

In the bathroom, Xia Yu stood in front of the sink, looking at ‘self’ in the mirror, with a white face that belonged to Cheng Dong, and a pair of hands that held a pen and a violin.

He, now is Cheng Dong.

Different from Xia Yu’s dazed and already known certainty, Cheng Dong was at a loss when he saw his face in the mirror after waking up. No matter how good he was, he was only a fifteen-year-old child. When I wake up, I change my body, which is unacceptable to normal people.

Just when he didn’t know what to do, Zhong Yuanjie came in on one crutch. Lao Bai’s words made him a little uneasy, and he didn’t dare to ask Ye Li, not to mention that Ye Li might not tell him, so he came to find Xia Yu, Xia Yu should know something.

Zhong Yuanjie asked a few secretly, but this ‘Xia Yu’ didn’t even understand his own situation, let alone talk to Zhong Yuanjie, so he kept silent all the time, only occasionally um oh a few times.

Zhong Yuanjie didn’t take it seriously, he didn’t want to ask Xia Yu much, and he had a good impression on him because of Xia Yu’s experience, and thought he was sad again, So after patting him on the shoulder and comforting him a few words, he didn’t bother anymore.

In another ward, Xia Yu came out of the bathroom and saw Cheng’s parents and Xia’s parents who came in. They all had fruit soup, Xia’s mother was still Cheng’s mother They hurriedly took him to bed, and couldn’t help but say, “You child should rest more, be careful of catching a cold.”

Especially when she saw the familiar and loving gaze of her adoptive mother, the corners of Xia Yu’s eyes were slightly moist, but she was greeted by the words of the Cheng family’s mother, “Dongdong, I brought you your favorite Fuyuanlou. The dim sum and porridge, you probably didn’t eat anything when you woke up…”

Cheng’s mother was rambled, but Xia Yu’s heart was cold and cold again, yes, he is Cheng Dong now, so that’s why he spoke to him so softly . As for Xia Yu, that’s just a poor **** that no one wants.

After Zhong Yuanjie left, Cheng Dong thought about it and decided to go to his ward to have a look. Since he has become Xia Yu, who is living in Cheng Dong’s body? It’s not that Cheng Dong can’t think of it, he just doesn’t want to think about it.

When he walked to the door of his ward and met the indifferent eyes of the familiar young man who was surrounded by and caring for the sickbed, he already understood everything.

He stood there in a daze, noticing that his Cheng family father frowned, but then he remembered that he hadn’t seen his own son for a long time, and his voice was soft. After a while, “Xia Yu, I’ll see you in the afternoon. You’re still sick. Don’t run around. It’s not good for your health.”

“You…what do you call me.” Cheng Dong stared at his father yesterday, why couldn’t he recognize him?

Cheng’s father patiently persuaded, “Xia Yu, be obedient, be good, I’ll call the nurse to take you back.”

Cheng Dong didn’t seem to hear what he said, and said in a daze, “Yes, I am Xia Yu, I am Xia Yu now. You should call me Xia Yu.”

At this time, the nurse had already arrived, and Cheng’s father was not as patient with the nurse as he was with his son. What if you fall and touch?”

The nurse apologized repeatedly and dragged Cheng Dong away. When leaving, Cheng Dong glanced at the familiar boy on the bed again, and suddenly said, “I’ll give you back your things.”

Also, sorry.

Cheng Dong has no intention of revealing the truth. It can be said that he is not qualified to blame Xia Yu, and he owes Xia Yu a ‘sorry” from beginning to end.

Sorry for taking your life away.

The adults in the room were a little stunned when they heard this sentence, and only two fifteen-year-old children understood the meaning of the sentence.

What Cheng Dong wants to say is, since I ‘robbed’ your life fifteen years ago, now I give you my life, from now on I am Cheng Dong, you Xia Yu, two Nothing to do with each other.

Xia Yu suddenly wanted to cry, but when he saw the Cheng family parents and Xia family parents around him, he felt that he didn’t even have the right to cry, he couldn’t To make them doubt themselves, he can only continue to play ‘Cheng Dong’ for a lifetime.

Cheng Dong is not not sad, after all, he is the adoptive parent who has been in love for so many years, but after returning his life to Xia Yu, he is more relieved. When Xia Yu was in pain, he also In the torment, he could not accept the favor of any pair of parents with such peace of mind.

Maybe God played a joke on them when they were born, and now, has put the joke back on the right track.

No matter how many unknowns or hardships there will be in the future, Cheng Dong believes that he will work hard to go on. A bright and relaxed smile appeared on the boy’s face.

A man walked out of the corner of the white wall after Cheng Dong passed by. Old Bai, he looked at the boy’s figure gently, and sighed, this is a good boy.

Ye Li walked slowly from not far away, she had been watching over Xia Yu.

Old Bai turned to look at her, instead of seeing Cheng Dong’s gentleness, he was a little awe-inspiring. He thought Ye Li would just give Xia Yu a tool to retaliate and hurt others, but he didn’t expect that she would actually Reaching out to Cheng Dong, this can only mean, “Do you want more?”

Ye Li smiled and said, “It’s not that I want more, but the pawnshop wants more.”

Old Bai sighed, “Their lives are already miserable enough, why do you need to intervene again?”

Ye Li looked at him with a faint smile in his eyes, “Will you stop it?”

“No, I won’t.” Lao Bai closed his eyes,

——

“What do you think?”

At night, Xia Yu was lying on the bed and saw a person in the curtain. She woke up suddenly, but found that the person was Ye Li. She said that to him with a gentle smile.

Xia Yu looked at Xia’s father who was sleeping on the sofa not far away, but heard Ye Li say, “Don’t worry, he won’t wake up.”

Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He looked at Ye Li again and answered her question, “…It’s okay.”

“Just okay?” Ye Li raised his eyebrows, only to hear Xia Yu muffled, “Cheng Dong said to return my things to me.”

“Do you feel guilty?” Ye Li said with certainty in his tone, but smiled, “Why do you feel sorry for him, this is yours, not what he gave you, but you I took it back myself.”

Xia Yu was silent.

The corners of Ye Li’s lips were slightly curved, and he didn’t say much, just said “enjoy the next day.” and disappeared.

The father of the Xia family on the sofa just turned over and fell asleep again. Xia Yu lay back on the bed, pulled the quilt up, and even covered his head. I don’t know if what I’m doing is right or wrong.

As time passed, Xia Yu passively accepted the favor of the two parents.

middle. Before a special drug was developed to deal with this kind of epidemic, those who survived depended on immunity, and Xia Yu seemed to be among the lucky ones.

One day at noon, when Xia Yu was eating the nutritious meal that Xia’s mother made for him, a doctor walked in quickly and whispered a few words to Cheng’s father, but Cheng’s father only said “Xia Yu is sick.” He hurriedly left with the doctor.

Xia Yu saw that the mother of the Xia family who was feeding her porridge shook her hand and almost spilled the porridge on Xia Yu’s hospital gown. The spoon fed Xia Yu gently. Xia’s mother stepped aside and pulled Xia’s father’s sleeve, as if to say that she wanted to see Xia Yu, but was scolded by Xia’s father in a low voice. Xia’s mother was a cowardly woman. Dare to rebel against her husband’s decision.

Xia Yu panicked in her heart, would Cheng Dong die, would he cough up blood like the patients on TV, and even spit out fragments of his liver.

Xia Yu thought, no matter what, he must go to see Cheng Dong in the afternoon, otherwise he will regret it for the rest of his life.

But he can’t wait for the afternoon, and neither can Cheng Dong. ‘Xia Yu’ fell ill and died acutely at one o’clock in the afternoon. When Xia Yu heard the news, she immediately fainted.

In a daze, he heard their conversation, “Will Dongdong really be alright?”

“No, the doctor said that he was only stimulated all at once, and his condition is indeed improving, and he will be discharged soon.”

“That’s good.”

“Let him come home with us after Dongdong is discharged from the hospital.”

“Why are you going home with you? He is the child of my Cheng family, so of course he is going back to our villa…”

The voice is very noisy, but not a word mentions the dead ‘Xia Yu’, it seems that they are also avoiding it. It turns out that Xia Yu is something they want to avoid or even forget.

Xia Yu woke up and fainted again and again. In the numb pain, the dizziness after another, the soul seemed to float to the sky for a while, and the suffocation and heavy breath were felt for a while. When he really woke up, it was already late at night. Xia Yu lifted the quilt and got up from the bed. He pushed open the door and walked out without disturbing the dozing father of the Xia family.

He walked quietly to the ward that once belonged to him, but now it has become empty, the bed is clean and tidy as if no one has lived in it, who would have thought that it was just sent away today one person. The flowers in the glass bottle by the bed had withered beyond their appearance.

Xia Yu stood at the door, looking at the empty ward. He was thinking about what it would be like when Cheng Dong died. He coughed up blood, and his blue hospital gown was stained with blood Red, gradually turning to dark purple. His face must be very pale, his eyes may be wide open, maybe at the last moment, his eyes will be full of resentment and unwillingness towards him, then his breathing stops, his heart stops, and he is covered with a white cloth.

In the end, the only one who will remember ‘Xia Yu’ is ‘Cheng Dong’, no matter whether the fate is exchanged or not, this is the case.

Xia Yu whispered, “Will I die?”

The smile on Ye Li’s face that appeared beside him seemed to be the same as usual, “You won’t.”

Xia Yu suddenly looked at her, his face was extremely pale, “Our souls have been exchanged, so is it actually me who should die?”

Ye Li smiled and said nothing, but her silence seemed to have explained everything, Xia Yu’s heart sank little by little, bottomless sinking.

After the deadly silence, Xia Yu said with difficulty, “I want a pawn.”

“The No. 8 pawnshop welcomes you.” Ye Li smiled and looked at this soul that turned from pure white to black but finally became pure again, the soul that No. 8 pawnshop dreamed of.

When Xia’s father woke up, he found that ‘Cheng Dong’ was missing. He found his wife and Cheng’s parents to look for it together, and finally found ‘Cheng Dong’ on the roof of the hospital. He stood on the edge of the roof, even beyond the railing. As soon as Xia Yu lowered his head, he looked down at the panoramic view of the hospital, and could see the tower in the distance.

The wind blows gently on Xia Yu’s face, he feels very comfortable, because the wind is clean and the wind is free.

The two parents were almost terrified when they saw this scene, “Dongdong, what are you doing there, it’s dangerous, you come down quickly.” Cheng’s mother said hoarsely, she almost used It took all the courage to not faint.

The Cheng family’s father and Xia’s father were afraid of irritating ‘Cheng Dong’, so they could only try to persuade him to come down quickly with a calm voice, and kept moving to approach him, and the medical staff also called in time called the police,

Xia Yu looked back at them indifferently and said, “I’m not Cheng Dong, I’m Xia Yu.”

Then fell straight down.
