It took Shen Yu a full five minutes to digest Kang Lin's words.
After hanging up the phone, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then quickly dialed Aunt Chen's number.
Aunt Chen quickly picked up, and her voice sounded tired, "Sir, are you back?"
"Aunt Chen …" Shen Yu had a lot to ask and say, but now those words were all stuck in his throat, and he didn't know how to say them. He murmured, "Where are you now?"
Aunt Chen seemed a little confused, "I'm at home, and I've already prepared dinner. Will you come back for dinner later?"
Shen Yu nodded, "Come and pick me up, I'm at the airport."
Aunt Chen said, "Okay."
Shen Yu waited at the airport for almost an hour, and then Aunt Chen drove over.
However, when Shen Yu saw Aunt Chen's car, he couldn't help but be shocked — he remembered that there was no car in the Shen family's garage. To be exact, there should be no car worth less than one million yuan.
And the car in front of him should only be worth one or two hundred thousand yuan.
Shen Yu calmly suppressed the emotions in his heart, put the suitcase in the trunk with Aunt Chen, and got in the car.
Aunt Chen didn't notice Shen Yu's strangeness, and asked with a smile while driving, "Sir, did you have a good trip? You said that your friend would send you back, so I didn't come to the airport to pick you up. "
Trip …
Shen Yu chewed on these two words.
Maybe his disappearance for more than half a year didn't have any impact on other people, and they were still living their own lives step by step.
He just didn't know how Tang Li was doing.
Thinking of Tang Li, Shen Yu suddenly felt a little sad, and sighed, "It's okay, just a little tired."
Aunt Chen smiled and glanced at him from the rearview mirror, "You look very tired, go back and rest for a while. There's Xia Zhi in the shop, so there won't be any problems."
It was Xia Zhi again.
In such a short time, Shen Yu had heard Xia Zhi's name for the second time.
In the past, Xia Zhi's presence in his life was not so strong, because Xia Zhi was just an ordinary staff in the dessert shop.
Shen Yu closed his eyes in the sun, and many messy thoughts flashed through his mind. When Aunt Chen saw this, she thought that he had fallen asleep, so she continued driving without saying a word.
After an unknown period of time.
Aunt Chen shouted, "Sir, we're here."
Shen Yu answered in a daze. He opened his eyes and got out of the car.
Then, Shen Yu was stunned.
The place where Aunt Chen parked her car was not the Shen family's parking lot that she was familiar with. Instead, it was in an old neighborhood. The environment was well-maintained, but there were all kinds of cars parked around it, making it very crowded.
While Shen Yu was in a daze, Aunt Chen had already taken two suitcases out of the trunk and walked downstairs.
When she turned around and saw that Shen Yu was still in a daze, Aunt Chen asked in confusion, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Yu suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head with a dignified expression, and followed Aunt Chen into the building.
If Shen Yu guessed correctly, he was now bankrupt.
In fact, Shen Yu didn't need to guess. Anyone with eyes could see that his living situation was no longer the same as before. Even the servants who used to work in the villa had left, leaving only Aunt Chen.
They lived in a rented three-bedroom apartment. Shen Yu lived in the master bedroom, Aunt Chen lived in the second bedroom, and the other room was used as a storeroom. There were a lot of things that were brought back from the store.
The whole house was cleaned and tidied up by Aunt Chen. There was a faint fragrance of flowers in the air. Although it was far inferior to the Shen family's house, it was very warm.
Shen Yu had lived in such a house before. Before he transmigrated here, the small house that he bought in installments was not much better than this.
However, he was still very shocked by the earth-shaking changes in the Shen family in the past six months.
Who would have thought that the Shen family, which used to be so rich, would be reduced to such a state in just six months?
Aunt Chen came out of the kitchen with warm food. When she saw Shen Yu standing in the living room in a daze, she felt very uncomfortable. She knew that Shen Yu certainly couldn't adapt to the current life for the time being, but the reality was in front of them, and they had to learn to adapt.
Moreover, Shen Yu was not alone.
He was dragging Old Master Shen behind him.
Thinking of Old Master Shen in the hospital two days ago, Aunt Chen sighed softly. Her expression was slightly sad.
"Sir." Aunt Chen forced herself to be alert and forced a smile. "It's time to eat."
Shen Yu nodded blankly. "Okay."
There were two simple dishes and a soup. It was quite sumptuous.
During the whole meal, Shen Yu had been thinking about something. His face was expressionless, and he was absent-minded from time to time.
Aunt Chen held the bowl and chopsticks and carefully observed Shen Yu's reaction. Then she said softly, "Old Master Shen's health is not very good. You should go to the hospital when you have time. You have been away for so long, and the old man still misses you very much."
Shen Yu was stunned. "The hospital?"
"Yes." Aunt Chen saw that Shen Yu's eyes were not quite right. She thought that Shen Yu was still angry about what happened that day, so she advised, "Old Master Shen's heart is like a knife made of tofu. Don't be fooled by how he talks about you every time. In fact, he is also very sad after he came down. You should just listen to him. Don't take it to heart, and don't be angry with an old man."
"I …" Shen Yu's body was a little trembling.
He was trembling, as if he was suppressing some kind of terrible emotion back into his stomach. After a long time, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "Is Grandpa okay?"
Aunt Chen shook her head and did not say anything.
So the topic ended there.
Shen Yu was afraid that he would be exposed, so he did not dare to ask more.
After running around for a day, his body was extremely tired. It was as if he could fall asleep in a second as soon as he touched the pillow. However, the fact was that he was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
After an unknown period of time, he slowly closed his eyes. Suddenly, countless faces of Old Master Shen and Tang Li appeared in the darkness.
Those faces were extremely pale, and they looked at Shen Yu expressionlessly.
Then, they opened their eyes together. "You impostor."
Shen Yu, who was half-asleep and half-awake, was so scared that he suddenly sat up in bed. A fine layer of cold sweat had overflowed on his forehead. He wiped the sweat on his face with the back of his hand and took the phone on the bedside to look at the time.
It was two o 'clock in the morning.
There was still a long time before dawn. Unfortunately, he could no longer fall asleep.
Shen Yu got out of bed and walked to the window. He found an opened pack of cigarettes and a lighter on the windowsill.
He used to smoke. After transmigrating to this world and taking in Tang Li, he slowly got rid of this bad habit. However, he remembered that the original Shen Yu had a smoking habit in the novel. Perhaps these things were arranged according to the plot line of the original.
Shen Yu leaned against the windowsill. For a moment, he felt so weak that he almost couldn't stand.
Sure enough …
He underestimated the power of the original plot.
Shen Yu took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, picked up the lighter and lit it. The long-lost smell of smoke instantly filled his entire cavity and even went into his throat. Shen Yu choked and kept coughing.
In the end, he coughed until tears came out.
The soundproofing in the old community was not good. Shen Yu could only cover his mouth and try not to make too much noise.
After a long time, he finally recovered. He packed up the cigarette box and the lighter and threw them all into the trash can beside his feet.
After standing for a few minutes in the cold wind, Shen Yu was ready to go back to bed and continue to sleep. At this moment, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of light downstairs.
Shen Yu lived on the third floor. In addition, it was an old community. The height of the floors was very low. He could almost see the scene downstairs at a glance.
However, it was the middle of the night. The street lights in the community were not so bright. He could barely see a car parked downstairs and a person sitting in the driver's seat.
The front of the car was facing his window.
Shen Yu didn't know if it was an illusion or not. He actually felt that the person in the car was staring at him.
This sudden thought startled Shen Yu. He hurriedly closed the curtains and walked back to the bed in two or three steps.
He couldn't sleep the whole night.
The next day.
Before seven o 'clock, Shen Yu, with a pair of panda eyes, got up.
He didn't expect that Aunt Chen would get up earlier than him. When Shen Yu was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, Aunt Chen, wrapped in a thick coat, came back with a car key in her hand.
Seeing Shen Yu coming out of the kitchen with a plate, Aunt Chen was obviously stunned. Then, she was extremely happy.
"Sir, you are up so early." Aunt Chen put the gloves on the shoe cabinet. She went into the kitchen to wash her hands and said, "I just went to the store to count the materials. Everything is normal. The account book is in the drawer of the cashier. You can go and have a look if you have time."
Shen Yu nodded, "I will go to the hospital first."
Aunt Chen was very happy, "Go. Leave the other things to me. If there is anything I don't understand, I will ask you."
"Aunt Chen, come with me." Shen Yu found a suitable excuse, "I am worried that grandpa will be angry when he sees me."
Aunt Chen thought for a moment, "Okay."
After having lunch at home, the two of them set off for the hospital together.
Grandpa Shen stayed in the private hospital where Dr. Liu worked. The hospitalization fees and medical expenses were extremely expensive. Now, Shen Yu naturally couldn't afford it. He was supported by Grandpa Shen's spare money.
Shen Yu bought a fruit basket and a bouquet of flowers from the supermarket near the hospital. When she arrived at the hospital, she saw a figure standing guard outside the ward before she even reached Old Master Shen's ward.
When he got closer, he saw that it was Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang, who was wearing casual clothes, looked much younger than before, but he couldn't hide the tiredness between his eyebrows.
When he raised his eyes and saw Shen Yu and Aunt Chen, Uncle Zhang opened his mouth silently. He didn't say anything and silently retreated to the side.
Shen Yu's expression was complicated. He quietly glanced at Uncle Zhang from the corner of his eyes, then pushed the door open and entered.
Aunt Chen didn't follow him in. She consciously waited outside the ward.
The ward wasn't big. It was even smaller than the bathroom of the Shen family. Fortunately, although it was small, it had all the essentials, including a bathroom and a small kitchen.
Grandpa Shen was lying on the bed with an infusion tube in his hand. His face was as pale as a sheet of white paper.
The author has something to say: Sorry …
The ending is stuck. I will update another chapter later. It will probably be over after a few tens of thousands of words.
