Chapter 55

Under the bottomless water, Jiang Shou's consciousness gradually disappeared.

When he was about to fall into darkness, more than one person approached him, fixed his head and feet back and forth, brought him up, and dragged him out of the water together.

The moment it broke out of the water, the shaky, cold light disappeared, replaced by endless white and noisy human voices.

"Wake up, wake up, can you hear me?"

Someone opened his eyelids and shone a strong light on his eyeballs. He didn't like this at all, so he struggled to close his eyes again.

"Still conscious, not fainted!"

Before he could react, something hard hit his stomach, and he was slapped several times on his back.This group of people patted their heads without saving any effort, which made his stomach uncomfortable, and he opened his mouth to vomit, and in the middle of vomiting, he didn't know which switch was touched, and he began to cough violently.He just kept vomiting and coughing until there was nothing left in his throat and stomach, and the group of people reluctantly let him go and put him in a relatively comfortable lying position.

Once he lay down, his eyelids began to drop continuously.He was so sleepy that he wanted to fall asleep.

"Don't sleep, wait for the ambulance to come."

It was so noisy that he couldn't sleep at all, and he tried to open his eyes a little.This time he was sure that he really saw Zhuo Shuang, but this Zhuo Shuang didn't look happy at all.

Instead, it looked like she was about to cry.

·

Even though there was a long distance between them, Zhuo Shuang recognized the person dragged ashore by the lifeguard at a glance.

It's Jiangchou.His mind went blank.The drowning man was Jiang Shou.Realizing this, he couldn't care less about queuing up to buy ice cream, and ran back like crazy.

Don't have an accident.He repeated these words in his heart.Please, don't let anything happen.

There were onlookers everywhere near the beach, and even if he kept yelling to give way, he still couldn't avoid bumping and shoving.When he finally squeezed into the middle of the crowd and saw the motionless person lying flat on the ground, the panic that had nowhere to rest in his heart exploded with a bang.

If he had known that such a thing would happen, even if he died, he would not have left Jiang Shou's side for half a step.

"How is he?" he asked, grabbing the nearest person, "how is he?"

The lifeguard glanced at him, "Are you his friend?"

Zhuo Shuang nodded in panic, "Yes, I am."

"The degree is not deep, the person has not completely fainted, and the water that was choked in is basically spit out, and the rest waits for the ambulance to come. Let's see what the hospital says."

Even if the lifeguard said so, Zhuo Shuang still couldn't calm down.It is estimated that the lifeguard also noticed this, and turned his body sideways to let him throw himself in front of Jiang Shou, using his eyes to prove that what he said was not a lie.

Jiangchou lay flat on the beach, her cheeks were pale and bluish, her lips were abnormally red, and her chest heaved slightly.Zhuo Shuang tentatively touched his cheek, but stopped before touching it, because he was afraid that what he touched would not be warm but cold and slippery.

Suddenly he noticed that Jiang Shou's eyelids were slightly closed, and his lips moved twice.

"...Zhuo Shuang." He recognized this mouth shape, it was Zhuo Shuang.

Jiang Shou was calling his name, and for a moment he thought he would cry in embarrassment—the lifeguard hadn't lied to him, and the matter hadn't reached the point of no return.

"Don't panic, I just called 120, and they said the ambulance will be here soon, please wait a moment."

With a pair of soft hands resting on Zhuo Shuang's shoulders, he turned his head and noticed that besides the lifeguard, there was a young couple surrounded by Jiang Shou. I'm about to give birth.

It was his wife who spoke to him.She said that their husband and wife were swimming near the shallow water area, probably because they were about to become parents, and they had a natural desire to protect their children. She noticed that Jiang Shou was in a bad mood, so she couldn't help but take a second look for fear of accidents.

If it hadn't been for her to look at these two more eyes, Zhuo Shuang would have simply

OK.

"Thank you." He was afraid that his sincerity was not enough, "Is there anything you need to help..."

Facing many things with ease, he rarely gets stuck.He didn't know whether he should withdraw money at this time, but the only thing he could get out immediately was money.

Regarding his proposal of repaying the favor, the woman refused decisively, "It's nothing, I just did what I should do."

"But..." He still didn't give up.

The woman looked at him for a few seconds, "If you want to repay us, come and talk to the baby in my belly."

Zhuo Shuang looked at her stomach awkwardly, "Say, what are you talking about?"

For teenage boys, pregnant women are the most vulnerable creatures in the world that they dare not approach, and he is no exception.

"Just say baby, you have to inherit all the advantages of your parents and be born beautifully and healthy." Her eyes were bent, showing a very gentle smile, and she took his hand and put it on her belly, "This It's useless for me to talk to the child's father, it's only useful for a handsome guy like you."

Zhuo Shuang stiffly repeated what she said before, "...to become one of the happiest people in the world." After speaking, he added another sentence on his own initiative.

He could see that she was using her own way to help him relieve the panic and fear that he could not vent.However, after coming here, his heartbeat was not as fast as when he first came here. When he first came here, he suspected that he would have a heart attack if there was any trouble.

"Huh?" Even if he was talking to other people, he still focused more than half of his attention on Jiang Shou, he noticed that Jiang Shou's arm moved, as if he was looking for someone.

"Are you still nervous?" The woman carefully observed his expression, "If you get over it, go and contact your friend's parents. We are here to help."

Zhuo Shuang, who was planning to go straight to Jiang Shou's side, stopped abruptly, "I see, I'll go right away."

Both he and Jiang Shou were underage, it was impossible not to notify the parents of such an accident, and he was not even qualified to sign for Jiang Shou.

·

There is an electronic locker near the changing room. Generally speaking, the clothes and other things that tourists change are stored here.

Zhuo Shuang opened the door with her wristband, first took out her bag and put it aside, then dragged Jiang Shou's schoolbag out from the deepest part.

Jiang Shou's schoolbag is the most common kind, with two pockets on the left and right. After saying sorry, he unzipped the first zipper on the top, and stretched his hand in, intending to find Jiang Shou's cell phone as quickly as possible.

He remembered that Jiang Shou often put his mobile phone in the mezzanine here... he found it.Thinking of Jiang Shou, who was in an unknown situation on the other side, he was so upset that he didn't notice that something was brought out with him.

It's a photo, a photo glued to a phone case.

He has been taught from childhood that he should not casually peek at other people's personal belongings, but the photo is in his hand, and it was torn off from the plastic phone case with a light tear, revealing the colored side, as if it was in his hand. The stripper, who was naked in front of him, tempted him to take another look at it with his graceful figure.

You can't blame me for that.He originally planned to take a look at it and give it back to Jiang Miao, that's what he planned.

The photo is a group photo of a man and a woman, the woman has a domineering beauty, the man... the pale light of the fluorescent lamp fell on him, his fingers slowly slid across the man's face, and it appeared in a trance that the drowning person is not Jiang Shou But their own illusion.

The man is as handsome as a prodigal son, and standing with that woman, the same is true for a golden boy and a jade girl, and a pair of lovers.However, the point is not this place, the point is that he recognizes this man.His heart was beating violently in his chest, and he was inhaling and exhaling vigorously, but the oxygen just couldn't get in.He was drowning, he was drowning on this flat and wide ground, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why his eyes turned black.

He called the man in the photo his father for more than ten years. Even if he died or turned into ashes, he would never forget the appearance of this face.

seems to have a soul with him

The induction was normal, and the fluorescent lamp above his head flickered twice, reflecting his complexion in a particularly terrifying way.

Why does Jiangchou have this photo?What does it have to do with what Jiangchou said "you will be very angry"?

He had a strong premonition that this was one of the two photos that he accompanied Jiang Miao to the photo studio to restore at noon that day.

Afterwards, Jiang Shou told him that the photo was destroyed, and he saw that Jiang Shou was lying, but he just thought it was some family matter that was inconvenient to tell him—he cared more about concealing it than Jiang Shou hiding something from him. the thing itself.

It was as if God made a bad joke with him, he never thought that this matter or this photo would have something to do with him.

—What is your opinion on this matter?

Why did Jiangchou ask such a question?A seemingly absurd guess slowly took shape in his mind, causing him to experience a blank mind for the second time in a short period of time.

Dong dong dong, the blood kept rushing into his brain, and the rapid heartbeat echoed in his ears. When he regained consciousness, a brand new crack had appeared on the edge of the photo, which just split Zhuo Zhenning's body in two.

He let go of his hand, and the photo fell to the ground.Calm down, he must be calm, Jiang Shou is still waiting for him to go back in the ambulance, he can no longer waste time here, just for a guess that doesn't know the truth or not.

Jiangchou's mobile phone does not have a password, and the background is also the one that comes with the system.He was a little surprised when he saw that there were only five people in the address book with him added, and his name was ranked first with an a in front of his name.He always knew that Jiang Shou's social circle was narrow, but he never knew it was so small.He found the contact with the note "Mom" and pressed the call button.

"Hello, Auntie Jiang, I'm Zhuo Shuang, your son's classmate. Your son accidentally drowned while playing with me in the water park. Now we are going to send him to the hospital. Are you free to come?" After replying, he said softly, "I'll send you the address of the hospital later, just call me when you arrive."

Jiang Shou said that this photo was a relic of his grandparents, so it can only prove that Zhuo Zhenning had an affair with the woman in the photo, and this woman may be related to his grandparents.

Unless she was the same person who spoke to him just now, he wouldn't believe it.

He will never believe it.

·

An hour later, he was sitting on a bench in the hospital lobby, holding the torn photo in his hand, and scrutinized it carefully up to the light.

Jiang Shou's phone in his pocket vibrated, he slowly moved away from the photo in front of him, and looked in the direction of the door.

Under his unbelievable gaze, the woman, whose facial features and photos basically didn't change much except for her age and attire, walked in front of him.

"Are you... Zhuo Shuang's classmate? I am Jiang Shou's mother. How is he now?"

The woman's hair was disheveled, and she was still wearing a shopping mall uniform. It looked like she ran out of work in a hurry.

He exhaled slowly, "He..." He realized his voice was hoarse when he spoke, and cleared his throat, "It should be fine, I'll take you to see him."

She was the woman in the photo who was hugging the young Zhuo Zhenning.

He likes Jiang Shou's eyes the most. When they first met, he remembered that this boy had a pair of beautiful eyes.

Jiang Shou's eyes are almost exactly the same as hers, and anyone who has eyes can tell that she is related to Jiang Shou by blood.

She is Jiang Shou's mother, she has a relationship with Zhuo Zhenning, and Jiang Shou is just one year younger than him, so Jiang Shou is the illegitimate child.

Numerous vague guesses and intuitions became the reality he was least willing to accept.

Why Jiang Shou always subconsciously resisted his approach during this time, why Jiang Shou drowned after he said that, everything can be explained.

After Jiang Suqing was sent to the ward, he stood at the door, lowered his head, buried his face in his palms, and slowly exhaled the sour air in his lungs.

He never thought he would have such complex feelings for a person.

mixed feelings.Hate, since he was sensible, there has never been a day when he has not hated the illegitimate son who made him so unfortunate, but even so, those likes and loves are true.

Ai and hate could not be offset each other. He hated to rush in and sorrowful, but if time came back, at the moment he found Jiang Chou drowning, he would still do the same.

He had been betrayed, so completely betrayed by the person he fell in love with for the first time in his life.
