Power and Wealth

Peking City.

North entrance of Peace Street, Dong Jia.

On a bright morning, Dong Xuebin nested in a warm and snoring duvet, lazy to get up.

The heating in the house is not very hot, only the nest is the warmest.

After flying back from Seoul yesterday, he went back to this one bedroom where he lived with his mother for several years. The last time Aunt Xuan helped clean the house, no one lived for a while. There was a thin layer of dust on the furniture in the house. Dong Xuebin cleaned the room by himself for half a day before he took off his clothes and took a hot bath, then drilled comfortably into the nest and slept until now. No pressure, his task for two days is to wait for Sister Yu to return to Beijing, then she will go back to the county together, so there is nothing to do, rarely can sleep a lazy sleep.

But nothing to do is also a very depressing thing.

Yingyun Xuan and her parents went to Hong Kong and Macau two days ago and will be back before Spring Festival.

Now Dong Xuebin is idle. He has been stripped and smoked several cigarettes in his nest. He doesn't want to do anything today. Alas, I don't know if Yu's gauze has been removed.

I made a phone call. It could be a signal problem. It didn't work.

Just about to call again, the iPhone 4 screamed and called.

As soon as he saw the number, Dong Xuebin laughed dry, rubbing his head with fluttering hair, sitting up from the bed, clearing his voice, “Hey, little Ceci, are you on cold break? ”

“Brother, woo...” The intermittent cry came.

“Oops, don't cry, don't cry.” Dong Xuebin nervously said: “What is this? ”

Yu Xixi snorted and wept: “My mother... my mother... my face... my face..."

Dong Xuebin knew that he had not hidden it from her. "I'm sorry, you were preparing for the final exam the other day. Your mother and I didn't dare to tell you when we talked about it. Um, your mother's face has been caught for a while. I have already accompanied Yu to Korea for surgery. Today you can probably remove the gauze. If it works well, you won't have any scars on your face. Put your heart into it. In a few days, I will go back with your mother to see you. ”

“Ooh, my mother... my mother... is she really okay? ”

“Oh, brother, promise to bring her back to you in one piece, don't cry, okay? ”

The little guy started crying a lot less, sucking on his nose, "... hmm! ”

Dong Xuebin said: "Okay, write your cold homework. I can check it when you get back.” It was the little Ceci who hung up the phone.

Alas, I hope Sister Yu recovers.

No, we can't. We have to succeed!

Dong Xuebin forcibly suppressed his crushed mind, did not let himself think, pulled the nest out to brush his teeth, and then went into the kitchen and put together his own breakfast. He didn't know how long the eggs were in the fridge. Good thing he could still eat them. Dong Xuebin stalled two bags of eggs, one bouncing yellow, one ripe, plus a bag of rapidly expiring Nestlé coffee that flipped out of the cabinet, and his stomach was full.

Bells, bells, bells.

I'm brushing the bowl. The phone rang.

After dumping the water on his hand, Dong Xuebin quickly walked to the living room. “Cell phones, cell phones...” Take a look, it's Yu Mixia's number, "Miss Yu? Did you remove the gauze? ”

“… well, dismantled. ”

“What's going on?” Dong Xuebin reminded the gallbladder.

The other end of the phone was chaotic, "Me, I've been to the capital airport, just got off the plane. ”

“What?” said Dong Xuebin, stunned. “Are you all back? Why didn't you tell me earlier? You wait, I'll pick you up. ”

“The phone signal is bad, I can't get through, so I'll wait for you in the airport lobby, and I know where we are now. It's too big. I, I can't find the exit. ”

“Don't go anywhere, just wait for me. ”

Dong Xuebin didn't expect Yu Meixia to fly back so soon. It seems that she and Seoul are not being honest, so she hastened Zhang Jingjing's flight ticket to her. In that case, the treatment should have ended yesterday. This morning, she just removed the gauze to see the results. Since the hospital agreed to Yu Meixia's return, that means that the wound on her face is probably nothing. Um, I just don't know how the recovery will work.

Take the bag, Dong Xuebin rushed downstairs.

Mercedes-Benz Business was dumped in an underground parking lot in a neighboring neighborhood when he came to Beijing earlier. He ran over to get in the car and Dong Xuebin went straight to the airport.

After entering the airport lobby, Dong Xuebin called her and confirmed Yu's location for half a day.

After inquiring with a staff member, Dong Xuebin walked west and looked for Yu Meixia's figure in the crowd.

… Found!

Not far away, in front of an airport cafe, Yu Meixia was dragging a small suitcase. She couldn't help but stand there and look to the right, as if she had come to another foreign country. The expression on her face was impatient and disturbing. Dong Xuebin took a breath, and the moment he saw Sister Yu, his heart was cold, because Yu Mixia still had a mask on her face. If she really recovered well, why wear a mask? So she still has scars on her face? And to the point where you have to wear a mask to get out of the house?

How did that happen?

Or scarred?

At this time, Yu Meixia saw Dong Xuebin, suddenly as if she had found the main bone. She rushed over with a suitcase. "Xiaobin, are you here? ”

Dong Xuebin stopped looking at her face. "You... let's go first. ”

Yu Meixiayi, uh, followed Dong Xuebin closely.

Out of the airport, Dong Xuebin helped her get her luggage into the car and drove on the airport highway. Sister Yu's face had multiple scars. Dong Xuebin had been involved for half a day without asking. Mainly he didn't want to sprinkle salt on Yu Meixia's wound. She would naturally tell herself when she wanted to say it. Let her calm herself for a while. Anyway, this has already happened. If she can't do it, she will undergo a second surgery.

Along the way, Dong Xuebin hung a smile and tried to create a relaxed atmosphere.

“Are you hungry? It's almost 11: 00. Where are we going for lunch? ”

“Listen to you.” Yu Meixia: “I have never been to Yanjing, I don't know what to eat. ”

Dong Xuebin introduced: “Yanjing is a snack, donkey rolling, sheep and mutton, big bowl of tea, roasted duck. By the way, we have a donkey meat burning shop downstairs. Let's go eat there. Uh, donkey meat burning doesn't look like Yanjing snacks, haha, whatever.” Dong Xuebin didn't have to look in the mirror to know that his forcibly squeezed smile must not look good now, "Go and eat. ”

North entrance of Peace Street.

Dong Xuebin and Yu Meixia ordered a pot of donkey sunflower soup and a few flames.

Yu Meixia looked at him and said, "Bin, are you in a bad mood? What's going on here? ”

“Ah?” Dong Xuebin sweated for a moment. I should ask you that. Are you in a good mood for scars on your face?

“By the way, I haven't shown you my face yet.” Yu Mixia remembered.

Dong Xuebin's heart said, “Well, why don't you eat first, while the donkey soup is hot. ”

Yu Meixia shook her head and was coming over to face Dong Xuebin. She bit her teeth, touched her hand on the mask and gently took it off.

Dong Xuebin's mood was so complicated that he squeezed his eyes and his heart beat. He didn't dare to look.

One second... two seconds... the mask was finally completely removed.

Dong Xuebin blinked and blinked his eyes. When he saw Yu Mixia's face, he was stunned. He stood up from the chair and bent over. He couldn't help but hold Yu's face and stare hard at her face. He looked at the white and tender skin. He looked sharply at where there were other marks? Dong Xuebin shocked: “Aren't you recovering? How nice of you to recover! What are you trying to scare me for? I thought you left a scar on your mask! Oh, my God! Isn't this recovery? ”

Yu Meixia shyly bowed her head, “I, I don't really speak much, but since I have scarred my face, you have been encouraging me, giving me confidence, and taking me to Seoul for surgery, I, so I wanted to be the first to show you when I returned home, wearing a mask. ”

Dong Xuebin shouted, “You should have told me, I almost scared the shit out of you! ”

“I'm sorry.” Yu Meixia bites her lips, "thank you, these days… thank you. ”

“Hey, why are you talking about that?” Dong Xuebin held her face: “Show me again, hey, how nice, don't say that the skills of the sticks are not really blown, um, just a little imprint is not good, but it's nothing, who doesn't have a chicken pox and pleats on their face? That's good enough.” Yu Mixia's face was completely restored at a distance, but there was still a little trace close to it, but it didn't hurt much.

With his face in his hand, Sister Yu's face was a little hot. “The doctor prescribed me some medicine and said that if I used it continuously, the mark would disappear. ”

“Okay, that's good.” Dong Xuebin Haha smiled and was in a great mood. “He went to the hotel to eat and celebrate. ”

Yu Meixia was also happy, rarely showing a smile.

Dong Xuebin looked at her for half a day before retrieving her eyes. Today she let go of a matter of heart. Therefore, Dong Xuebin patted the table, called the owner of the donkey burning shop, and found out that the wallet photographed more than a thousand yuan. “Boss, there is a table to count. Today's dinner I invited.” Go ahead, Dong Xuebin hugged the fellow eating at the table next to him. “Everybody eat well and drink well. Today's bill is mine, boss, two more plates of donkey meat on each table! ”

The boss had a good time, "Okay! ”

The people around just heard Dong Xuebin talking, they both understood what was going on.

“Little brother, thank you. ”

“Dude, how embarrassing is that? ”

Dong Xuebin laughed: “Happy today, everyone eat whatever you want. ”

Several young men were also very eye-catching. Seeing Dong Xuebin invited him, he hugged his fists and congratulated Yu Meixia on her recovery. “Congratulations to the elder sister. ”

Sister Yu blushed and hurried to thank her.
