1373 The Only Difference is the Person (1/2)
When Zhang Zian squatted on the tires, the parents had already gotten dressed and went out. They urged, ”We are leaving. You should hurry and get back to the house.”
”No! This tire has a problem! This tire here; the right front wheel!” He stood up in a hurry and hit the tire from the side. He struck it very hard as if trying to deflate the tire on the spot.
”Is there a problem? What is the problem?”
Usually, his father is responsible for driving, so he bent down to look and said, ”No problem at all. The car was fine when they drove it earlier.”
”No problem? The tracks on the tires are almost smoothed out. How can it be okay? They are fine driving this before, but if you drive this now...”
Zhang Zian's volume suddenly increased. He never yelled at them so loudly before. Yet, at this moment in time, before he had said much to them, he started choking up. In his brain were fragments of memories. Another way of depicting it is that he hit a brick wall in his thoughts, and he cannot continue speaking.
His parents didn't know why he was so emotional and were very puzzled. They secretly wondered if it was because the morning blind date was not successful and so he was in a bad mood.
”But, this tire has to be changed, and it will not last for a few more days.” It may be because of the boy's accident; his father softened his tone and agreed with his son. ”Zhang Zian is right. We cannot be so lax with driving. It is fine if there is no accident, but when one happens, it will be a terrible thing. Besides, the auto repair shop is just nearby. Let's change the tires first, then go look at the pets.”
”If you want to change it, you might as well change all the tires. The others are also near their end.” Zhang Zian walked around the car again and saw that the condition of the other tires was not good as well.
It takes a lot of money to change four tires all at once.
The mother was somewhat distressed by the money but did not object.
”Be sure to change it! You must! You can't promise me now, only to turn around and only do it a few days later!”
Zhang Zian is not like himself suddenly and continued nagging, much like an old man.
”I know what I promise you I will do. I will not fool my children.” His father laughed cheerfully. His son behaving like that reminded him of all the interesting things he did when he was younger.
Zhang Zian is not in the mood to crack a joke. ”Be careful when driving on the road. I would rather you slow down and drive slowly, don't rush. Also, don't fight with others on the road for space.”
”Haha, I had a driver's license much earlier than you! Don't worry!”
Although the father sounded like he didn't care from his words, the boy's accident was still fresh in his mind. It gave him enough reminders to watch the road, so he listened carefully to Zhang Zian's warning.
Zhang Zian was still restless. Even when his parents drove to the nearby auto repair shop, they were asked to send a location pin to confirm that they were actually changing tires at the auto repair shop.
That evening, his anxious mood was only relieved when his parents returned safely.
After his parents came back, they were very happy. They talked very late and slept later. They had found a good pet breeding base and will buy pets from the new one in the future.
The next day...
Zhang Zian woke up earlier than yesterday. This time he can't blame his biological clock. It is really something in his heart that is bothering him. In addition, yesterday, he slept a lot more in the afternoon as well.
Even in his sleep, Zhuang Xiaodie, in her traditional Chinese costume walking down the mountain road appeared in his mind.
This does not mean that he fell in love with her at first sight. It only proves that the visual impact and presence are extremely strong. If it was someone else and not Zhang Zian, be it a man, woman, or child, they will not forget her as well even only after spending a short time with her.
