"I believe he hit his head in the last car accident?" Jiang Chen said in our solemnity.
"Well, he changed a lot after that accident though," Jiang Chen answered his own question. But, all of us just saw Xie Tianyu smile stupidly. "But, he handles the business quite well. I mean, more perfect than before though," he continued.
"There might be some sequelae?" Mimi asked.
Oh, right. Two months ago, Xie Tianyu had a car crash. He was sent to the hospital and had a coma for 13 days, after that, he changed but not changed? Ugh, it was also quite hard for us to describe it.
Anyway, these two guys, Jiang Chen and Xie Tianyu were obsessed with accidents on the road.
"But, I am indeed serious. I like you. No, I love you at first sight," Xie Tianyu made a firm statement.
Bang! Mimi hit her hand on the table. She looked like a mother chicken when its chick was being taken. "No, you lie! The first time you met her, you didn't even have any flinching or care whatsoever!!" She yelled.
"Calm down honey," Jian Chen chimed in.
Yes, Mimi right. Honestly, the first timeline, I and senior Xie met was different from Brother Chen and Mimi gathered all of us. It was the next week after the small wedding of Yin Ming and my mom. The grandfather of senior Xie was my dad's military nanny during his training. He was invited to this wedding alas couldn't come because senior Xie got bus accident and need to recuperate at the hospital.
Brother Chen got the most physical injuries, even his right foot needed to be amputated. As for Senior Xie, he got a local nerve injury. He has a problem with his sensory ability to feel hot and cold. Actually, after long rehabilitated for more than two years. Everything went well again. Until he got another car accident two months ago.
I almost forgot about our first meeting. We met at Xie's manor. The grandfather was so kind and I liked him the most. He was different from my father's dad. I still remembered how he just kept silent all the time in the countryside. He just smoked cigarettes a lot. But Grandpa Xie's lame joke was so fun. More information: Yin Ming, my favorite dad was an orphan.
At that time, I met Senior Xie in his wheelchair. He wears lots of thick clothes even though I felt tight for him. He just ate his porridge silently. Both of them lived together in the big manor with few bodyguards and maids. Senior Xie's parents also divorced in his first year living in the world. After then, his dad died of brain cancer after fighting for four years. It seemed his mom had never seen her after the divorce. No other thought on the first impressions.
The second meeting was at the first year anniversary of two sick lovebirds, Mimi and Brother Chen. I was a bit late because I fell and hurt my knees. My walk was a bit limp at that time. He just sat while eating his salad silently, took a glance at me for a moment, and kept eating again. He just smiled when Mimi asked him anything, sometimes he answered some questions. Mostly said many things to Brother Chen. He didn't say greetings or even smiled at me. It was a little bit awkward. But, I talked more with Mimi and Brother Chen.
I believe after this formal meeting, I never met him again until two months ago. Mimi asked me to go camping with her friends on the outskirts villa. I knew some of them, so I agreed with her. In the middle of our bonfire singing events, Mimi got a call from Brother Chen about Senior Xie's accident. So, I went with her to the hospital.
There was nothing serious but I tried to calm Grandpa Xie and feed him some warm food. Mimi and Brother Chen have been quite taken aback since I knew Grandpa Xie. I told them a simple sentence, "Grandpa Xie was my dad's military nanny during his training back then."
I came to the hospital for a week until I had to focus on my exam. I talked with Grandpa Xie a lot. We played chess and mahjong. I rarely asked about their family's situation. Grandpa Xie also knew my intention was just for accompanied him to the hospital. My dad also came to visit every day but only stay briefly, just brought us lunch and went back.
Honestly, I also have a certain weird feeling after Senior Xie woke up after the long comma. I heard from dad's call, Grandpa Xie asked me to come to the hospital again after the exam finished because Senior Xie wanted to meet me. At first, I thought he want to thank me because I accompanied his grandpa. But, I was wrong!!
He became weird, weird enough until Grandpa Xie decided to take CT Scan, and MRI, to check his brain. Grandpa also consulted with many experts. But, nothing was found. Only the psychologist suggests getting therapy sessions after an accident.
I am not trying to be eccentric or narcist. But, Senior Xie is indeed quite clingy toward me.
"Let's change the phone number?" The first statement he said was when he met me at his VVIP ward. Even Grandpa Xie couldn't close his mouth. I could only follow what he ask, after all he was a patient.
BUT! He kept sending me 'Good Morning', 'Good Night', 'How's your day?', 'Have you eaten? Wanna hang out?'
These massages were not fit when Senior Xie did it. After all, he was 9 years older than me!!
I rarely send a reply back since most of the time my phone was on plane mode. Why? After being accepted into university, my step-sisters from my dad's family kept sending a message to ask me many things. The reality was they hired a very good teacher for those twins. I did not know what they want. I blocked their numbers and changed to a new number. Somehow, my mom still sends my new phone number to dad. Later he gave my numbers to my step-siblings. The cycle kept recycling. I wouldn't bother telling the truth to mom, since she was so busy with her job.
My mom also couldn't stop me or my biological dad to keep in touch. Since he kept the promise to give me some pocket money until now. I bet his wife didn't know about this matter.
Since I lived in a dormitory and spent my life entirely in class, library, dorm, and night market around the campus. I rarely met Senior Xie. But, somehow I had a wild guess that he sometimes came to my building dorm or stand in a very far-away corner at the night market. Just my wild guess. I didn't have any proof though.
Back to reality, Senior Xie rubs my hair again and I grip his hand. "Don't! I styled it quite a long. Don't disturb the serenity of my hair!!" I stared at him angrily. Somehow, his face got closer and he touch my cheek. No, he kisses my cheek.
"What the heck!!!" Mimi shouted.
"Calm down, honey!! I think it is a good thing. Finally, Tianyu's spring comes," I still looked at Senior Xie's smiling eyes, then I heard a punch sound. I looked at the couple. Brother Chen rubbed his shoulder while Mimi tried to come here.
"Say the truth! Since when did you like her?" she pointed her forefinger at Senior Xie.
"The first time I met her in my manor. Her dad and mom came to meet my Grandpa. It was after I've been released from the hospital," he said calmly.
"But you don't even say anything at me," I said quietly. He smiled again at me, but I looked at other things, not really wanting to face his smiling eyes. "I was quite stupid for realizing my emotion. After the last accident, I think it is a good thing to show my interest to you," he continued.
"Wow," Brother Chen and Mimi chimed in together.
