It had already been several decades since they met again.
Wei Jing held the teacup with both hands, his fingers caressing the warm surface of the cup. The light green tea gave off a refreshing aroma. He looked up and sized up the young man in front of him. He was only eighteen years old, and his face still had a hint of immaturity. The words he spoke were gentle and amiable. He was a completely different person from the arrogant and willful Wei Min from his previous life.
Different life experiences gave everyone a unique personality.
Wei Min's change was not sudden.
"Why are you all sitting there in a daze? It's almost noon. What do you all want to eat? " The man's voice broke the silence of this side of the world. There was a faint smile on his face as he lazily leaned on the sofa cushion. His features were handsome, but his eyes were extremely cold, like a sharp knife.
Wei Jing was stunned by his stare. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This person probably thought that he had a grudge against Wei Min. That's why he's acting like this!
"Anything. I'm not hungry." Wei Jing went along with the man's words.
Wei Min was in the wrong for what happened back then, but the real mastermind was already dead. Furthermore, he was still young at that time. Things had changed with the passage of time, so the grudge that had been buried by time was not worth mentioning to outsiders.
"Then we'll eat anything. Oh right, I forgot that I haven't introduced myself." As Wei Min spoke, his gaze landed on Xu Gen, who was still in a daze. "Hello, I'm Wei Min."
"Oh, oh! Hello, hello, I'm Xu Gen. " He finished speaking in a daze. Then, as if he remembered something, he suddenly stood up and stammered, "Wait, you're Wei Min? Then what's your relationship with Wei Xiaojing? Are you brothers? "
"No, no, no! I said something wrong. " Xu Gen patted his mouth in annoyance. He glanced weakly at Wei Jing and slowly added the second half of his sentence. "Were we brothers in the past?"
Now Wei Jing was his cousin!
Wei Min's hand that was holding the teacup paused. A trace of guilt flashed across his eyes. He replied with a gloomy expression, "Yes. Xiaojing used to take care of me, but I …" He glanced at the young man opposite him nervously. His voice was so soft that only he could hear it. "… I did something terrible!"
"What did you say?" Xu Gen asked.
Wei Min shook his head. "Nothing. Let's order! Do you want to eat steak or pasta? "
Xu Gen rubbed his nose. He was not good at using knives and forks, and when he cut the steak, it always made an unpleasant sound. He did not have to think about it, so he chose the latter. Wei Jing came over after breakfast. His stomach was still full, so he casually ordered a snack.
Xu Gen admired He Di's gaming skills very much. Seeing that the strange atmosphere had passed, he couldn't stop talking, his eyes sparkling as he looked at the other side.
He Di … He Di was a little embarrassed.
The atmosphere of the meal was neither good nor bad. Wei Jing and Wei Min were silent. Only when the other two people asked would they give a brief answer or two. When Xu Gen and He Di saw this, they consciously lowered their voices.
After eating and drinking, Xu Gen was itching to play games. He Di saw that Wei Min was not in a good mood and wanted to go home.
At the crossroad, Xu Gen pointed to the left. "We're going this way. Goodbye." He felt a little regretful that they could not be gay friends.
He Di nodded. He was taller than Wei Min by more than half a head. Standing behind her, he looked like a bodyguard. He said, "Goodbye then."
"Okay. Goodbye."
The two groups of people walked in opposite directions at the same time. Wei Min walked a few steps woodenly. His expression was uneasy and his face was distorted. He suddenly turned around and came face to face with He Di, who was walking behind him. That person was shocked by Wei Min and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Wei Min looked back and could still see Wei Jing's figure. If they met again this time, they might never see each other again in the future.
This was fate given to him by the heavens. He suddenly had unlimited courage in his heart. He lifted his feet and strode forward. The young man turned and waved at He Di, who was behind him. His smile was bright and his eyes were full of the bright summer sun. It was as if he had gotten rid of all the haze. "I'm going to apologize to someone. The person I told you about before."
Although he had done something wrong, it could not be offset with a simple "sorry". But if he did not even apologize verbally, how could that be?
It was a sunny August. At noon, the sun was like a small stove, illuminating the entire B City.
Wei Jing and Xu Gen walked one after another on the street. When they were waiting for a red light, Xu Gen could not stand the weather. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "I'm going to the convenience store to buy some drinks. What do you want to drink?"
Wei Jing was also uncomfortably hot. He glanced at the red light. This street was more complicated. This light was 90 seconds. "Get me a bottle of cold mineral water!"
"Okay! Then wait for me! "Xu Gen said and walked back to the road they had just come from.
Wei Jing stood by the street. He was like a withered cabbage under the sun. He walked to the right. Under the shelter of a big tree, he finally felt better. Not far away, a large truck suddenly sped up like crazy. It went straight to the side of the road.
When Wei Jing heard the scream, he was looking at his phone. When he looked up, a huge object suddenly crashed into his eyes.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment. The sun disappeared and turned into a cold winter night. The young man stood there in a daze. In his heart, he was screaming — Run! Run quickly! But his body could not move. Everything started to rewind in his eyes.
He was drunk. His body was heavy and his limbs were weak. He stood on the street in a daze. He did not do anything, but he was hit by a large truck. His head hit the ground. After a moment of sharp pain, he became numb.
The alcohol had numbed his body and mind. Everywhere he looked, there was a bright red color.
Was he really reborn? Was everything in front of him reality? Could it be that everything he experienced was just a fantasy before he died?
The large truck that was the same as the one in his blurry memory. He was also hit and sent flying. It was like a painting that was left in the depths of time. A warm liquid splashed on his face. The young man made a meaningless sound. He opened his eyes. Blood stained the hot ground with a different color.
But … this was not his blood.
Wei Jing stared blankly at the ground. When the truck crashed, the front of the truck directly hit the big tree behind him. A circle of people surrounded him. They caught the driver who reeked of alcohol. There were also enthusiastic people who dialed 110 and 120.
Wei Jing just stared blankly at the person on the ground. He was wearing a white and blue striped T-shirt and a pair of beige casual pants. His body was curled up and his face was covered by his black hair. Only his blood-stained neck was exposed.
"Hehehe …" Wei Jing suddenly could not breathe. He clenched his right fist and pressed it against his chest. His breathing was rapid and his eyes were sore, but he could not cry.
This was the person he had just met.
The person he had just decided not to meet in the future.
The person who was just standing in front of him with a silent expression. Occasionally, he would smile, but he still had a lot on his mind.
He wanted to say — Why did you save me? Didn't you hate me back then? Now that we haven't met for so many years, why did you suddenly come back?
Everything in front of him was like a ridiculous joke. It was a melodramatic plot written by an unreliable scriptwriter.
"Wei Jing."
His eardrums were hit by a loud sound. Wei Jing's muddled brain suddenly sobered up a little. He looked up and saw Xu Gen running over in a panic. His tears fell one after another. They were like pearls with a broken string, smashing onto the hot ground.
He staggered and ran to Wei Min's side in a panic. His shoes were stained with blood. He placed his hand on the youth's black hair, but he did not dare to move.
Would he die? Just like himself in his previous life?
His body was smashed into pieces. His face was hideous. He turned into a pile of ashes and was buried in the cold ground.
"The ambulance is here, the ambulance is here …" The crowd screamed in surprise. Wei Jing followed closely beside the nurse. He watched as they carried Wei Min into the car with a stretcher. Wei Jing quickly followed. He shouted to Xu Gen behind him, "I'm going to the hospital with you. Tell He Di."
In the car, the nurse started to stop Wei Min's bleeding and gave him an IV drip.
Wei Jing sat at the side. His voice was cautious and his eyes were full of hope. "Doctor, how is he? Will he be okay? "
The nurse was busy with her hands and said with a heavy expression, "It's hard to say. We have to see if his brain is injured. Family members should be mentally prepared."
These words were like a sledgehammer that smashed his head. Wei Jing felt dizzy and almost fainted. There were abrasions on his arms and legs. The white skin had been scraped off, revealing the red flesh underneath. When the car hit him, Wei Min pushed him away and he rolled on the ground.
It was very painful. It was extremely painful. It was even more painful than when he died in the car accident.
Why was it so painful? It was so painful that his heart did not listen to him. His numb and stiff fingers dialed a familiar number. Before the person could speak, the youth's choked words came out along with his tears.
"Big Brother, I'm on my way to the hospital.
Wei Min was hit by a car to save me. It's very serious. Big Brother … I'm so scared! If anything happens to him … I'll … burp … even if I die … I won't be able to … rest in peace … burp … "
