Chapter 25 4. Treat him like an old friend

It's not that Huihui never thought that she would meet him one day in this city.But this day came without warning, and she was at a loss.At that moment, her soul seemed to be out of her shell again, and she floated leisurely into the air, watching the lively tragicomedy in a luxurious and beautiful place: Danny Hagrid was surrounded by a beautiful red-haired girl, followed by his team .They descended two steps from the carved gate into the banquet hall.His eyes seemed to sweep across her face, and then he passed her on the two steps.In the thin flowing air, she seemed to be able to hear his whispered voice, his brisk footsteps without hesitation, and even the sound of his breathing, which was once so familiar to her.But Danny Hagrid had nothing else to do and just passed by her side.

Huihui stayed there for a while, with one foot on the steps and the other under the steps.After a while, she looked back and thought she saw Danny Hagrid's dazzling golden hair, but he was surrounded by people who came up to say hello. They missed it. The lost soul didn't return to her body for a long time. She saw herself going downstairs to find the car in a daze, and sat in it for a long time.The light rain that began to fall at dusk stopped, and it was a clear and clear night. The long leaves of the grass were covered with water droplets, reflecting the light of the stars. The night was beautiful and peaceful, giving people a sense of illusion.

Huihui thought too much, and gradually formed a question in her head that puzzled her: Was that really Danny Hagrid just now?Could she be hallucinating?She always feels a little tired recently, and pays too much attention to the news of annexation and monopoly, so she may be wrong. However, Huihui slowly leaned on the steering wheel, what is she unwilling to believe?Is it unwilling to believe that it is Danny Hagrid, or is it unwilling to believe that Danny Hagrid is passing by her, treating her as a completely transparent person? As if answering her question, a person knocked lightly on her car window outside, and she looked out. The long-lost Danny Hagrid stood outside, nodding and smiling at her.

Huihui was taken aback for a moment, feeling that her eyes were dazzled, why did this person appear so brightly in front of her eyes again? While she was in a daze, Danny Hagrid tapped on the car window again with his index finger, and said to her outside: "Please open the window." What does he want to do?He wants to talk to her?No, no, there is nothing to talk about between them.She looked at him and shook her head, feeling scared in her heart. As soon as she turned the key, the car ignited. Danny Hagrid clapped his palm on the window of her car outside: "What are you doing? Please get down immediately."

She didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence, the car shook, and Danny Hagrid was thrown away abruptly, and at that moment, she rushed out like an arrow off the string. She drank a lot of champagne, but she was sane and level-headed.She just wanted to drive faster, just didn't want to see Danny Hagrid, the car behind was honking loudly, flashing its headlights, telling her to stop, it was Danny Hagrid, he Follow up and ask her to stop. She didn't like it, and her heart was ruthless, and she stepped on the accelerator to the end.The car bumped all the way on the narrow road in the old city, but fortunately, it was late at night, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, and she didn't know how many red lights she had run through.During the process, Danny Hagrid has been chasing closely behind. His car exerted force several times, almost parallel to her, almost forcing her to stop, but Huihui always seized the opportunity to turn the car sharply to the other side. Road.

The road became narrower, the number of cars decreased, the terrain became higher, and the branches covered the moonlight. At this time, she found that she was gradually going up the mountain road.Danny Hagrid, who had been chasing after her, also slowed down at this time, keeping a distance of one car from her, but following her step by step.The mountain road is very narrow, and there is no bend in it. She has no other choice but to go up the mountain. At the top of the hill, it is flat ground with an old bell tower.Huihui wanted to make a sharp turn, dodge Danny Hagrid, and then rush down the mountain along the same road. Who knew that he had expected her to do this, hit the side wheel of the car, pushed the whole car over, and drove Huihui Straight to the wall of the bell tower.She finally stopped.

She didn't turn off the engine, and he didn't move any more. He got off the driver's seat and knocked on her car window again, with no expression on his face: "The car drives very well. Is the insurance amount high enough? " She was silent. "You smell very drunk," he said. "Sit over there, and I'll take you home." She smoked a cigarette in her car. During the process, her hands kept shaking, and her heart seemed to jump out of her throat. She didn't know if it was because of the extreme speed of the car just now, or because she saw Danny Hagrid again. .

He had been waiting for her outside, leaning against her car, a silhouette cut out by the white moonlight. She looked at him, and for some reason, small tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. Huihui got out of her car and changed to the co-pilot's seat.Danny Hagrid got into her car and started slowly on the road. All the way to her home, they had some very simple conversations, she told him that he should turn left here, and then go straight... She asked him: "What about your car on the top of the hill?" Danny Haigh Said: "Don't worry, I will send someone to get it back."

Downstairs from where she lived, he got out of the car, looked up, and said to her, "Well, it looks nice here." She nodded: "Well, it's still quiet. Thank you for taking me back, I'm going up." She took a few steps forward, and he called her from behind: "Huihui." She turned around. Between them was the yellow street lamp where Danny Hagrid three years later called her real name—Huihui. Danny Hagrid nodded gently and said to her, "It's been a long time, and you didn't even say hello at the banquet, just left?" She gathered the shawl a little tighter and said truthfully, "I don't know what to say."

"It's fine to say anything. Tell me how you are doing, tell me what you've been doing, tell me why you stayed here and didn't go back to China... I'd like to know about you Things, I'd love to know," he said. "..." "It's too late today, let's meet another day, what do you think?" "..." "My phone number hasn't changed," he said. That night, she had a dream. The plot in the dream was very clean and simple, that is, she was sitting alone on the train, and she was on her way without stopping.The scenery outside the car window is different. Sometimes she sees her original home and kindergarten, and the children are very noisy; sometimes she sees the old building where she and Xiaoduo lived on the left bank of the Rhone, and the courtyard is full of steam. Sometimes she sees Lake Berge, the back of a person fishing on a white sailboat on the blue lake, wearing a sweater and listening to slow rock with headphones.Then she woke up and saw the bright moonlight reflected on her pillow, and she thought quietly: So, whether she wants to remember or look for it, this person is always there.

When she woke up in the morning, she listened to the radio while making herself hot milk for breakfast. The milk was in the pot, a mynah passed by the window, and there was a lot of music and news on the radio. She suddenly heard his name. "Last night at about ten o'clock in the evening, a traffic accident occurred on Verne Avenue in the east of the city. A car collided with a jeep, causing four men including the drivers of the two cars to be injured. The four injured are currently in the hospital After treatment, the condition is stable. The cause of the accident is under investigation. It is reported that one of the injured is Mr. Danny Haig, the president of the Haig Group. At present, the police have intervened in the investigation of the cause of the accident..." Milk overflowed from the small pot, she turned the switch, and went to the phone before cleaning up. Huihui dialed the well-known number while thinking: How could such a thing happen?After ten o'clock, when he was leaving here, he called his driver, and then there was a car accident?How can this happen? The phone rang twice and was picked up, he said "Hello", his voice sounded completely normal. "I, it's me," Huihui said here, unaware that her voice trembled slightly. "Yes, I know it's you, Huihui." "I listened to the radio, you..." "...The car hit a bit, but it's okay, it's not a big problem." She didn't speak for a while. "I'm at Jean Jolais Hospital now, would you like to come over?" he said. "OK." "See you later... drive slowly." She was relieved at this moment, at least on the phone, Danny Hagrid was fine.But when she arrived at the hospital, Huihui found that things were not as simple as she imagined, or as Danny Hagrid described. At the information desk of Jean Jorais Hospital, before she could speak, two reporters with video cameras rushed to ask the staff behind her, "Which floor is 'Hagrid''s media conference on?" "Conference Hall 322 on the seventh floor." So, she took the elevator with the two people to the big room full of reporters. As soon as the door opened, she saw Danny Haigh sitting on the platform in the center of the room, surrounded by his lawyer Fourier, and several " High-rise of Haige Water".The spotlight flashed in a panic, as if it was necessary to turn the wound on the celebrity who had just had a situation, but Danny Hagrid had no flaws. He was wearing a casual suit with a small plaid pattern, a white shirt inside, and a gray-blue silk scarf tied in a Windsor knot.He leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, without a smile on his face, but he looked at ease and comfortable, as if this was not the conference hall of the hospital, but the balcony facing the lake at No. 15, Chambéry du Louvre. Lawyer Fourier held the microphone: "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your enthusiasm and concern for Mr. Danny Hager and the Hager Group. Now the reception is starting. Please ask questions. However, Mr. Hager has limited time, wait A doctor will be asked to do a routine examination soon, so Mr. Hager can only answer three questions from the media." The reporters raised their hands one after another. Danny Hagrid took a look, instructed Lawyer Fourier, and ordered a young female reporter to answer her questions. The female reporter stood up and said, "Raphael Fran, reporter of Dongnan Finance and Economics. Mr. Hager, hello, you look good, how are you?" Danny Hagrid nodded: "Thank you, and you are fine. I have some bruises on my shoulders, other than that, the doctor advised me to drink a little less alcohol, and the rest, as you can see, are fine. " The female reporter smiled: "As far as we know, there are some doubts about the cause and process of the car accident. The police have already stepped in to investigate. Mr. Hagrid, do you personally think that this car accident has anything to do with Hagrid's recent series of big business moves? Yes. Wasn't it a premeditated act of revenge?" Danny Hager replied: "Regarding this issue, please also help me urge the police to investigate. My personal opinion is that this is a very accidental incident. I do business honestly and have no enemies." Next came a middle-aged male reporter from the financial section of "Le Monde". His question was straightforward: "Will your injury affect the acquisition process of 'Yiyun'?" Danny Hagrid didn't even hesitate for a second: "Any of my personal problems will not have the slightest impact on the business decisions that the 'Hagrid' Group has made." The room was very hot with all the journalists' professional machines running at full capacity. Huihui took out her handkerchief to wipe off her sweat, thinking to herself: Just rely on you to fight with him? Huihui was wiping her sweat when suddenly the reporter beside her who came in with her was selected. After the reporter finished asking questions, Huihui just raised her head, blushing, facing the eyes of Danny Hagrid on the front stage . He didn't speak, and asked the reporter after a while: "Oh, sorry, please repeat your question..." His eyes were on her face all the time. Danny Hagrid left the conference hall after answering the three questions from the reporter. After a while, someone opened the door next to Huihui, and someone came to Huihui and said, "Miss Qi?" "yes." "Follow me here, please. Mr. Hagrid is waiting for you." Huihui followed the man out, first went up to the eighth floor, passed the stairway door guarded by the hospital security guards and Hagrid's bodyguards, walked through the long and empty corridor, and reached a room at the end of the west wing veranda.The man knocked on the door and said, "Sir, your guest has arrived." He came over to open the door himself, saw her, and finally smiled: "That room is very hot, isn't it?" Before Huihui could answer, the first thing she saw was the inside of his white shirt, the bright red blood faintly peeking out from the thick bandage on the left side of his chest.She was startled, looked at his face, then at the injury, and stammered: "What, what's going on?" He still said, "Small injury." He said, "Come in, come in, Huihui, tell me how you are. What is this? Is this something you brought me?" The entourage asked him, "Sir, shall I call the doctor?" Danny Hagrid opened the things brought by Hui Hui and said, "Don't use it for now. I'll call the doctor later." In her pockets were two jars of honey from her shop, and two melons she had bought on the way.Danny Hagrid took out a melon, touched the green rough surface, and sniffed the taste again: "This one is a good choice. Buying melons this season is very expensive, right?" "Five euros. Bought it at a fruit shop I know." "Look," he said, "I told you." They sat down on the chairs on both sides of the small round table under the window, and Huihui noticed that his movement was slightly inconvenient, and the chest injury was bothering him.Just now when he faced the reporter, his tough performance was all an illusion. "Is it the car accident that happened on your way back after dropping me off yesterday?" "It has nothing to do with you." He said, "The driver accidentally collided with another car." "Recently I heard the news that you are going to acquire 'Yiyun', so is it possible for the reporter's suspicion?" He shook his head: "The reporter doubts everything." Maybe he didn't want to continue this topic, so he took out a bottle of honey from the bag: "What is this? Why did you buy this for me?" Huihui said, "This is what I sell in my store." "Oh?" He looked up at her, frowning slightly, not without surprise, "Your shop?" She nodded and said with a smile: "I have a small shop that specializes in nutritional products from China, mainly bee products, mainly royal jelly and honey." "sounds good." "Last year's profit was more than 200,000 euros." He laughed: "You rich man." She also laughed: "If you say I'm rich, then I really am." Does he remember the jewelry he bought her?Did he remember the famous car he gave her?Does he remember every silver thread on every closet?Did he remember those two majestic racehorses he was going to give her at the end? She remembers everything, so she doesn't care about things that come so easily, and throws them away quickly, but even a small grain of millet she has earned is sweet.Now Danny Haig said, you rich man, she should be proud of herself. "I gotta go, Danny," she said. "Got to the store." "Okay." He stood up, "You drove here by yourself?" "Ok." At the door he said, "Huihui." "Huh?" She looked up, looking at his lake-like blue eyes that had been intact for three years, and she smelled mint on him again. "I was in so much pain this morning when the doctor was bandaging me, but I was so glad I got your call," he said. I'm even happier. So, so, Huihui, if you have anything, if something makes you difficult, you have to remember that I'm always here." "Well, thank you." Huihui nodded quickly, and then left his room, walking quickly without looking back. Huihui met Mr. Fourier who had finished dismissing the reporters, and heard him say into the phone: "Miss, Danny is resting, and he doesn't see any guests right now. Maybe you can come over this afternoon." She drove her own car back to the store, replied to two orders, and sent a batch of goods to other provinces. She went to Xiaoduo's restaurant for dinner at night, touched her stomach, and drank some apricot juice. She supported her head and recalled the sudden meeting with Danny Hagrid last night, and the polite and warm conversation between the two when they visited him in the hospital today. She saw an international student insert a one-euro coin into the record player of this Chinese restaurant and order an old song: The song lingered in her mind until she sat alone in the dark car, watching a night bird fly across the moon. She lay on the steering wheel, tears streaming down silently.
