By the swimming pool of the private club, two young men were arguing in low voices. "I saw her first, Lin Yongchang, I warn you, if you fight with me again this time, don't blame me for being rude." The other sneered, "Zhang Jiazhou, you can say such things. I lent you the membership card of the club, otherwise how would you come in." While arguing, the four eyes looked at the girl reading a book under the shade of the tree. That is indeed a beautiful girl, the combination of human facial features is very wonderful, ordinary eyes, nose and mouth; the arrangement is slightly different, that is, turning ugly into beautiful, and the size is a little bit taller, and it is completely different.

This girl is obviously favored by God, her face is beautiful and refined, her figure is slender, and the most rare thing is that she has a natural bookish look in every gesture. Lin Yongchang and Zhang Jiazhou, a pair of troubled brothers, have been paying attention to her for a long time, and found out that her name is Qin Keqing, her grandfather is the owner of a securities firm, and her parents have divorced and live in a foreign country. See how rare it is to have a family background. At this time Zhang Jiazhou stood up first, "I'll go say hello to her." Lin Yongchang was unwilling to let others go, and immediately followed his cousin.

The two squeezed and scrambled, their feet hooked to the rattan chair first, and the chair hit the sun umbrella, and the umbrella seat fell forward, dragging the lemon tea cake plate on the glass table of the tea table and so on, all clattering and falling towards the girl. All the tea drinkers by the pool were taken aback, looking at the two brothers. The two of them failed to live up to their expectations, and they fell to the ground together, like rolling gourds. Some people couldn't help laughing. Zhang Jiazhou complained, "You clown." "You are ridiculous."

The waiter has come to clean up. The guest's attention returns to himself. Lin Yongchang said in a low voice, "She doesn't even lift her head." Exactly, the girl didn't respond to such noise. She still buried herself in the novel. What is the story that firmly attracted her heart? The two brothers stood awkwardly, at a loss. At this time, another young woman approached Qin Keqing and glared at the two young men. She put her hand on Ke Qing's shoulder, and Ke Qing raised her head. She started to sign, and Keqing replied in sign language. Lin Yongchang understood in a flash.

He opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it. Zhang Jiazhou turned his head abruptly, "She is—" Lin Yongchang picked it up for him: "Didn't you ask about it?" The two hurriedly tugged and fled. When they arrived at the parking lot of the clubhouse, the two fell silent. "it's a pity." "She can't hear." "No wonder you don't look up." "It's said that if you can't hear, you can't speak." The cousin was silent for a while. "Hi, do you have Shao Yemin's phone number?" "I fought several times, but no one came back."

"Just hit it a few more times." "Let's talk outside the city." The two reconciled as before, got into the car and drove away shoulder to shoulder. There are benefits to being inaudible. So many wise men pretend not to hear. Qin Keqing is indeed deaf, her world is silent.Get used to it, and don't feel it is a loss. Her good friend Meng Shaoping handed her a glass of mineral water and murmured, "Clown." Ke Qing read her lips and asked with a smile, "Those two people just now?" Pronunciation has been taught by a master and is very clear.

However, Ke Qing rarely spoke unless she was an acquaintance. Shaoping said: "Don't look at that kind of person, you will still marry a wife and have children in the future." Ke Qing smiled and said, "You are slow to be angry." Shaoping sat beside her, "I'll have a swimming competition with you." Ke Qing said, "I want to go back and see my grandfather." "I'll accompany you." Ke Qing was moved, "Look at you, all your precious time is spent on me." "Hey, I don't know whether you will accompany me or I will accompany you, otherwise my time will be useless."

Ke Qing stood up, tall and slender, a little thinner, and more beautiful. It is indeed a pity that the pair of vulgar things also talked about dialogue. Shaoping: "I'll drive." Ke Qing said, "What is the sound of the engine?" "Talking to you in the morning is like breathing." "Isn't it rumbling like an airplane?" "The plane is whistling—" Shaoping said, "Haven't you felt all the frequencies of the sound from the computer?" Ke Qing nodded, "The most frightening thing is that the weeping sounds of human beings are the same as those of injured animals."

"Although you are deaf, you are not deaf. With the help of advanced equipment, you have a little understanding of the noise in the world." Ke Qing said nothing. home! Qin's House is a semi-detached small bungalow on the mountain, only ten minutes' drive away from the downtown area, with convenient transportation, and it belongs to an expensive location. The old servant came to open the door, "Miss Meng, hello, sister, grandfather is waiting for you in the study." Shaoping sells familiarity with familiarity, "I'll watch TV in your room." Ke Qing walked into the study and knocked on the door.

The old gentleman turned his head. His spirit was shining, his eyes were piercing, his nose was like an eagle, his lips were tightly closed, and he only smiled when he saw his granddaughter. With shiny silver hair, he was wearing a white shirt and dark trousers. He was so neat that he didn't look like an old man. He knew that there was someone waiting for him at a glance. He said to his granddaughter, "Come here." Ke Qing sat across from her grandfather. "I have something to say, listen carefully." "yes." "Sister, here is a copy of my will, take a look."

"I don't want to see, grandpa made a good will." Ke Qing stretched out her hand and pushed the file away. "Most of the cash and real estate is left to you." "Grandfather, I will accompany you to the rose garden." "It's useless for you to come to the securities firm. Give it to your father." "Grandpa, I'll make you tea." "The only good thing that useless unfilial son did was to give birth to you." Ke Qing had to apologize. Mr. Qin sat down, "I was 28 years old when I started my business, half a century has passed in a hurry." She laid her hand on her grandfather's shoulder. The old man's sense of touch was as sensitive as a leopard, and suddenly he shouted sharply: "Who is outside the door?" Ke Qing hurriedly went to investigate, and it turned out to be Meng Shaoping. Shaoping stuck out his tongue, "Start starting a business again?" Ke Qing nodded with a smile, then said sadly, "I just hope I can talk for a few more years." "I'm going to the kitchen for a snack." Ke Qing returned to her grandfather. "Is that Meng Shaoping?" "Exactly." "I never liked this girl." Ke Qing couldn't help laughing, "Grandfather has said that since Shaoping was ten years old." "Is it my prejudice?" "Shaoping has always been my friend and treated me well." "Kenny, you have to be careful." Ke Qing is submissive. The old man held Ke Qing's hand, "You really look like grandma." Ke Qing put her grandfather's hand to her cheek. "The character is also similar, she always said in her lifetime." "That's what I love to hear." "Kenny, I have something on my mind." Ke Qing said, "Grandfather, I will help you finish it." The old gentleman's eyes lit up, "I hope to see you regain your hearing." Ke Qing was surprised, "Grandfather, I have been checked by experts a hundred times, and I know that this matter is hopeless." "No, medicine has made some progress in recent years." But Qing didn't feel sorry for herself, she said: "I live a good life, I have my own world, and I don't lack at all." But the old man said stubbornly, "I want you to hear me." But Qing had no choice but to obey him, "Yes, yes." The maid said at the door of the study: "Lawyer Zhen is here." Ke Qing said, "I'm upstairs, call me if you need anything." When Lawyer Zhen came in, he stretched his hands from his throat to his stomach, indicating that he was hungry. Ke Qing smiled and said, "Make a bowl of shrimp noodles for Lawyer Zhen." When she went back upstairs, Shaoping was talking on the phone, seeing her hang up immediately, he let out a sigh of relief, "The old man is lecturing again?" Ke Qing smiled. "What did you say this time? Ke Qing pointed at her ears, "I'm asked to seek medical attention again." Shaoping said with pity, "He is not willing to replace you." Ke Qing didn't make a sound. "Actually, there is no such thing as a beautiful day in the world. The birds don't speak, and the flowers don't smell good." Ke Qing looked at her, "With less screen, you will become more cynical." "Really," Shaoping laughed, "I thought the world didn't like me." Ke Qing patted her on the shoulder. "I still have something to do, I'll see you tomorrow." "How about a new job?" Shaoping replied: "It's not good enough for the servants to do things." Ke Qing felt that her friends always had a feeling of being underappreciated. "See you tomorrow." Shaoping came downstairs and walked towards the gate. Someone stopped her: "Miss Meng, please stay." She turned her head and saw that it was Mr. Qin. "Come here, Miss Meng, I have something to tell you." Shaoping had no choice but to walk up to him. The old man looked her up and down, his eyes were like lightning, and he darted around her body, he was so timid, what could be hidden from these eyes? The old elves are the scariest, they are another kind of creatures, they are so experienced and their eyesight is too accurate, they are almost half-immortals. Meng Shaoping's back was sweating. The old man said: "Miss Meng, you have been walking around my Qin's house for more than ten years." Suddenly Shaoping couldn't help it, clenched his fist and said, "I know you don't like me being friends with Keqing, because my family is poor, and you think I'm not good enough for Keqing." The old man was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly laughed. Lawyer Zhen who was on the side also laughed. Shaoping's face flushed red. Mr. Qin spread his hands, "Do I give you such a snobbish feeling?" Shaoping had to say: "You didn't stop me from coming to the house." "Miss Meng, I'm not that kind of person." Shaoping asked stubbornly, "Then what do you have to say?" The old gentleman glanced at Lawyer Zhen. Lawyer Zhen came over, "The thing is like this. Ke Qing will go to London for medical treatment next month. We hope you will take care of her during the journey. I wonder if Ms. Meng can spare time?" Shaoping was stunned, and only then did she realize that she was overwhelmed. She was a little ashamed. Only people with the most low self-esteem would work so hard to defend themselves. One can see through Meng Shaoping's psychological state at a glance. She replied humbly: "I am willing to accompany Ke Qing, and I will go back to the company and resign tomorrow." "Miss Meng, we are willing to compensate you for your loss." "I am a friend, regardless of gains or losses." "Miss Meng, you deserve to be paid." How can one speak of a lawyer. "Don't worry, Keqing doesn't need to know about this." Shaoping finally said, "Thank you." Lawyer Zhen helped her restore some self-esteem, and she was still a friend in front of Ke Qing. Lawyer Zhen handed her a check. Looking at the screen, the amount is twice her current salary. She took the check immediately. "Miss Meng, if you want, you can stay in our guest room for a while." Shaoping nodded, "I'll make a decision tomorrow." she went out. Lawyer Zhen looked at her back, "A girl who is extremely intelligent." The old man nodded, "Compared to her, those of the same age are like a stupid little dog." Lawyer Zhen laughed, "You are blessed." The old gentleman bowed his head, "That poor deaf man is a big rock in my heart." "There are always regrets in life." "Life in a hurry, more suffering and less joy." "I think Keqing enjoys life quite a bit, and is optimistic about her fate." The old gentleman sighed, "I hope this operation can help her." As far as Lawyer Zhen knew, Qin Keqing was found to be a deaf child after an examination at birth. Unable to bear the pressure, her parents divorced when she was one year old, and they went their separate ways, leaving Keqing to live with her grandfather. The old man said: "But Qing hasn't seen her biological parents for some time." Lawyer Zhen nodded: "Actually, Keqing is no different from ordinary people." The old man said: "But I can't hear the music, and I don't know the alarm. Think about it, what a loss." Lawyer Zhen tried his best to persuade the owner, "Maybe there will be a turning point in this operation." The old man sighed again.Upstairs, Keqing was watching the animal wonder program on TV, and the subtitles benefited her a lot. When she was a child in a special training school, she was used to all this, but Keqing can handle the details of life with ease. Her oscillating alarm clock is always placed under the pillow, but the maid still comes to wake her up every day. Everyone in the family knows a little bit of sign language, and the old man hired a special person to teach it every day. After a long time, everyone naturally learned a little bit. The most important thing is that her grandfather's great power protects her from harm. "I hope she hears the baby cry," said the old gentleman. Ke Qing was the most obedient when she was a child. She woke up to play alone, and fell asleep automatically when she was tired. She had never seen such a quiet child. No wonder pediatricians say: When a child is too good to be good, he should go to the doctor for examination immediately. In a silent world, there is no sound. She only had Meng Shaoping as a good friend. Half a month later, Shaoping accompanied Keqing to see a doctor. Along with her were lawyer Zhen and a nanny. They lived in an old flat near Regent's Park in London. Lawyer Zhen said: "It's the property that the old man bought in his early years. You can see how tall and comfortable the roof is." The two suites are close to each other and designed in the same way, but Keqing immediately gave up the one facing the park to Shaoping. Shaoping was also courteous, "There is a cherry blossom at the window facing the back street, I want this one." Ke Qing lay on the comfortable bed, and said to her friend: "When this kind of juncture comes, I hook up the most trivial and earliest memories and relive them again." Shaoping grabbed her head with his hands and threw it out of the window, which meant to tell her to forget. Keqing smiled wryly, "About two years old, they called me deaf in front of me, thinking I couldn't hear, but they could tell by looking at their expressions." Shaoping walked up to her and held her hand tightly. After the break, they went to the doctor's office. But the eyes are more than a little nervous. Fortunately, lawyer Zhen presided over the overall situation. The clinic is very modern. It is located in the city center. From the window, there is a lot of traffic. Although Qing can't hear it, she knows that the city must be noisy. The doctor came out. He is a middle-aged man, tall and energetic, with a very amiable smile. As soon as he saw Ke Qing, he said, "I am Dr. Zhang Simin, you must be Ke Qing." Ke Qing shook hands with him, everyone sat down, and the doctor cut to the chase and began to explain. "Ke Qing, I will perform an operation for you." Ke Qing nodded. "Ke Qing, I want you to hear clearly, this operation is still in the experimental stage, and the success rate is only 30%." Ke Jing herself didn't have much hope, so she only replied at this moment: "Understood." "Ke Qing, do you have a certain understanding of your own hearing?" Ke Qing held the corner of her mouth. "If only the eardrum is damaged, technology can overcome it, just like the retina can be transplanted and repaired, but your situation is different. Your auditory nerve is faulty, so the line is broken and cannot lead to the brain. We have to do another A kind of surgery." Ke Qing smiled: "The doctor is really amazing. We mortals can understand such a complicated matter in Mandarin." The doctor laughed too. "The operation is divided into two parts," he pointed to the diagram on the computer screen, "first, a large button receiver is installed on the back of the ear, and then a circuit is placed in the brain to allow you to regain hearing, which is more effective than ordinary electronic ears. The socket implant surgery is ten times more complicated." Meng Shaoping was dumbfounded, and couldn't help asking: "Are there any successful cases of surgery?" The doctor laughed again. Ke Qing said, "I want to know too." Lawyer Zhen was also curious, "This is tantamount to taking over God's unfinished work." Dr. Zhang: "I know you will definitely ask this question." He turned to the nurse and said, "Please come in, little Yongxue." "yes." Everyone waited with bated breath. As soon as the door opened, the girl named Yongxue walked in. She was only eleven or twelve years old, but Ke Qing immediately took a liking to her because of her sympathy with each other. Doctor Zhang said softly, "Yongxue, please show Miss Qin the equipment you wear today." Yong Xue nodded. Doctor Zhang said: "Yongxue, let everyone see your receiver." Yong Yan brushed aside the hair around her ear, but Ke Qing concentrated her attention, she saw that there was obviously a big button protruding under the skin behind the little girl's ear. "Please let Miss Qin take a look at the wiring again." The little girl pushed back the long hair on the top of her head again, but what Qing saw was a small piece of metal planted on the skin. Such an oddity. "Yongxue, please demonstrate the operation process." Yong Xue took out a pacemaker the size of a cigarette box, connected the wires to the top of her head, and gently turned on the pacemaker. Doctor Zhang asked: "Yongxue, can you hear all the sounds?" Xiao Yongxue didn't speak until this time, and she smiled brightly, "Yes, doctor, I can hear all voices." The doctor laughed, "Turn off the pacemaker before going to bed every day, and you can sleep until dawn." Xiao Yongxue suddenly added: "I also wear it at night, and I can hear my father's snoring." When Qing heard this sentence, her heart became alive. "Thank you, Yongxue, you can go out now." The nurse took her away. "Kaiqing, would you like to try it?" But before Qing could say yes, Attorney Zhen had already asked: "If the operation is unsuccessful, what are the sequelae?" "There are no adverse consequences, of course, the patient suffers for nothing, and still has to pay for the surgery." "Can we think about it for a day or two?" "nature." "Doctor Zhang, tomorrow is Keqing's 21st birthday. After that, she can do everything on her own." The doctor nodded, "Oh, there is one more thing, I have to remind Keqing that when the patient opened the skull, he was awake." Ke Qing immediately widened her eyes, showing a terrifying expression. "You won't feel pain, we need to be sure to find the correct nerve line, and you will answer questions all the way through the operation until the doctor is satisfied." Ke Qing finally closed her mouth. Doctor Zhang sent them out. Lawyer Zhen said: "You two girls, let's go have a cup of tea and relax. I still have something to do, and the driver will turn around and pick me up." At the teahouse on Sloan Street, Shaoping sighed, "Look at Miss Qin going out to seek medical treatment, there are a lot of lawyers, drivers and mothers, just like a princess on tour." Ke Qing was silent for a moment, then asked back: "Do you want to be me?" Shaoping had an answer early in the morning: "It's not too late to ask me this question after I heal my hearing." Ke Qing took a sip of tea, "Does Dr. Zhang look like Frankenstein?" "The government hospital thought his surgery was too out of the ordinary, too expensive, and not effective enough, so it refused to fund the research." "Hey, Shaoping, how do you know?" "I've heard of him well. His research work is entirely privately funded, and his grandfather is one of his patrons." "Oh, it's all for me." "Ke Qing, have you decided to have this operation?" Ke Qing nodded. "I will accompany you." Ke Qing held her hand tightly. "But sunny, tomorrow is also my twenty-first birthday." "I know." "I had to be independent already." "Shaoping, I have always admired your independence and decisiveness." Shaoping smiled helplessly. Ke Qing said, "We will celebrate our birthday together tomorrow." Shaoping was a little frustrated, "After the age of 21, it will go downhill immediately, and it will grow old soon." "Are you worried about such illusory things? I have to check the skull for the doctor in the future." Shaoping said with pity, "It's really hard for you." Ke Qing said, "Unfortunately, I don't have any friends in London." "Hey, Keqing, don't worry about it, even if you have champagne and no friends." "You're talking about wine and meat friends." Shaoping said softly: "All friends in the world only appear on sunny days." "And you?" "I follow Keqing." "Short screen, I will make it up to you." "I know that it is better to give than to receive." Early the next morning, lawyer Zhen sent cakes and flowers. The old man talked with Ke Qing on the phone, and the nanny relayed, "Do you think the operation is feasible?" "Very exciting, decided to give it a try." "Great, I wish you success." "Only a thirty percent chance." "That's a reasonable ratio, even if there's only a 1% chance." So Qin Tinggui is a very successful businessman. The two young women didn't go out to celebrate. They chatted quietly in the apartment. "Ke Qing, what is the voice you most want to hear?" But Qing smiled and didn't answer. The cries and laughter of children, the sound of waves and wind, the sound of violin and saxophone music, the sound of love words, the sound of broken porcelain plates, the sound of a needle falling into the ground that is often described in books, the sound of guests after the wedding Cheers, the rustle of feet on autumn leaves. Basketballs crashing, ice cream truck music, seductive pop singers singing, belching, snoring, fish jumping out of the water, torrential rain, rumble of thunder. This is a world of sound and video, unless you can hear it, you are only half alive. "Short screen, tell me, is hearing a pleasure?" "It's something you're born with, so you don't cherish it much." "Yes, I don't remind myself every day: how happy it is to have hands and feet." Shaoping said, "I have a present for you." "I prepared one too." Shaoping took out her gift, which was a small embroidered pillow with "friends forever" embroidered with colorful cross patterns on it. Ke Qing smiled, "I like it too much." Shaoping opened her gift, but it turned out to be a diamond bracelet, sparkling. Shaoping quickly put it on, "This is what you call attracting jade." "Is the size okay?" "As long as it's a diamond, it must fit the size." Ke Qing lamented, "I'm actually twenty-one years old." Shaoping said, "Come on, I'll go out with you." After changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Shaoping took her to a small and exquisite nightclub. The driver was worried, "Miss, this..." Shaoping smiled and said, "Park the car, you can come in too." The foreman came up and asked, "Can the two of you make a reservation?" Shaoping handed him a large amount of British pounds, "Yes, my surname is Wang." "Heh, two Miss Wang, this way." Ke Qing saw it in her eyes, and said with a horrified smile, "Why do you look like a quack?" They immediately got a table near the dance floor. Shaoping continued to instruct the foreman in a low voice, but she didn't know what she was saying, but the foreman kept nodding and bowing. Ke Qing sat watching the fun, not unhappy. I'm having major surgery tomorrow. Like Frankenstein, when you uncover the head device, you don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse. If you are not happy today, you are wronging yourself. The waiter took out more than ten champagne buckets and announced loudly: "Miss Wang, please drink champagne." Then, balloons, confetti, and ribbons were scattered all over the place, and all the guests present cheered. Although Qing couldn't hear it, she knew that the music was loud, because the young men and women had already played solitaire on the dance floor, and everyone put their hands on the waist of the person in front of them, twisting and dancing the samba. Keqing encouraged Shaoping: "Go, go dance." "I'm sorry." "It's your birthday too, go." Shaoping walked into the dance floor, and immediately there was warm applause. The foreman came over and said softly, "This is the bill..." Ke Qing took out her credit card, "I'll pay for it." It's a pity that there is no sound, just like watching a silent film. But Qing has always been just an audience member and has no chance to participate in the performance. She did not realize that a young man was already standing behind her to greet her. The young man raised his voice, but she still didn't respond. The young man walked around to her, smiled and said, "It's really noisy." Ke Qing also smiled. He offered her a glass of wine, "Happy birthday." "Thank you for your congratulations." "My name is Xu Zhongxuan." "I'm Qin Keqing." Xu Jun was surprised, "Isn't it Miss Wang?" But Qing couldn't help laughing, "No, it's not." "Come on, please dance." "What music is this?" "Never mind it, what dance do you know?" "Three steps." "Follow me." He took my hand. Xu Jun is young, tall and handsome, and he somehow gave Ke Qing a gentle and considerate feeling when he came up. They lingered happily on the dance floor for what seemed to be a long time. Ke Qing asked worriedly, "Is the music over yet?" Xu Zhongxuan replied: "Music never ends." Ke Qing laughed. Suddenly, the crowd rushed towards them, pushing the two of them away, and then, someone took Ke Qing's hand and formed a big circle, spinning around non-stop. But Qing was afraid of falling, so she couldn't help shouting happily, expressing her depression, very happy. The driver came over to protect her at this time, and retreated to a corner with her. Ke Qing saw Lawyer Zhen standing aside. He frowned, "Playing so crazy, whose idea was it?" Ke Qing smiled and replied, "Me." Lawyer Zhen didn't believe it, "No wonder, it must be that wild child." But Qing was taken aback, he didn't like Shaoping either. "Let's go back." "But--" "Going home to prepare for admission to the hospital tomorrow." He took Keqing away. But Qing didn't disturb her friends, and today is also her birthday. She said to the driver: "You are responsible for taking Miss Meng home." Lawyer Zhen smiled and said, "Who is the dance partner?" He saw it. "Surname Xu, one of the guests tonight." "A student or already working?" "I don't know, I don't have time to talk about it." "You have to be careful." Ke Qing smiled, "Zhen Lvshuai is earnest." He was angry, "Is this a compliment or a derogation?" Ke Qing leaned on his shoulder, "I know how to distinguish between good and evil." "Really, you have such a great ability?" Attorney Zhen sighed, "I'm still being fooled all the time." The nanny is helping Keqing to pack the clothes and supplies needed for hospital admission. It was fine and went to bed early that day. Dimly seeing a ray of light under the door, it must be that Shaoping has returned. The next day, Shaoping woke her up. Ke Qing smiled, "Did you have a good time?" She nodded, "The beauty of a good day that I will remember until I am fifty." The nanny came in: "Miss Qin, I will help you change your clothes." The grandfather's phone is still answered by the nanny. "Did you have surgery today?" "Exactly." "I wish you success." But Qing didn't want him to worry, "It must be successful." She was surprisingly calm. Lawyer Zhen said behind Ke Qing, "I wonder if she is afraid?" Shaoping replied: "But when it's sunny, it's soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and she will support it." Lawyer Zhen nodded, "You know her very well." "We've been friends for ten years." Ke Qing turned her head, "What are you two talking about?" Shaoping smiled and held her hand, "I can't speak ill of you behind your back from now on." Ke Qing also held her hand tightly. Lawyer Zhen sees everything in his eyes. These two girls have no similarities in their personalities and backgrounds, but it can be seen that they are serious speculators, which is probably a kind of fate.
