Chao Ci woke up the next day.

He Lu looked very haggard, his eyes were black and blue, bloodshot eyes appeared, and his face looked as ugly as a ghost.

But as soon as he saw that Chao Ci was awake, he immediately put a smile on his face and helped Chao Ci up.

"Are you awake? Are you hungry? Let's drink some porridge." He said, passing the white porridge beside him to Chao Ci.

He even scooped it up for Chao Ci and handed it to Chao Ci.

Chao Ci frowned and ignored the spoon handed to his mouth. Instead, he turned to look at He Lu and asked him directly: "What's wrong with me?"

"It's nothing, the doctor said you are too tired and need to rest more." He Lu's expression looked natural.

Chao Ci did not follow his lead, and his expression did not waver at all: "I know my own body, and there is no need for you to hide it from me."

"Just tell me what the doctor says, otherwise it will be the same if I ask myself."

Helu's expression froze.

He put the spoon back into the bowl and said softly: "It's a stomach tumor."

After hearing these words again, Chao Ci didn't seem to have any other special reaction.

But his face turned gloomy.

"Aci, don't worry, I'm not sure yet whether this tumor is benign or malignant. You're still young, you don't know. Even if it's really malignant, gastric cancer is not difficult to treat now, as long as..."

As long as it's not late.

He Lu didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Chao Ci understood what he meant.

"Let's wait until the test results come out." Chao Ci looked at a point floating in the air with a dazed expression.

…

Perhaps Murphy's Law itself also conforms to its rules. It always works when it is least expected.

The test results came out and it was a malignant tumor, late stage.

Standing next to Chao Ci, He Lu's vision went dark, and he held on to his chair before he could barely stand still.

Chao Ci's reaction was much calmer than He Lu's. He just asked the doctor: "How long do I have left?"

The doctor looked very embarrassed: "This is hard to say... If you actively cooperate with the treatment, it is possible to survive for another five years or more."

Five years. A lot of prerequisites have been added.

It was enough for Chao Ci and He Lu to understand what he meant.

"I understand." Chao Ci said.

In fact, Chao Ci's situation is more serious than what the doctor and Chao Ci said.

Later, the doctor looked for He Lu alone. According to normal circumstances, Chao Ci could survive for at most two to three years.

The doctor didn't say anything directly. Of course Chao Ci knew this. He had caused the disease to be diagnosed by the system himself.

I was afraid of affecting the patient's mentality, so I could only tell the family members the truest situation. There was nothing wrong with this, but Chao Ci found it a bit funny.

He Lu was probably the person most easily affected emotionally by this incident.

Sure enough, after He Lu came back, his expression could no longer be described as ugly.

But he still hugged Chao Ci tightly and kept kissing Chao Ci's forehead: "Don't be afraid, A Ci... I will take you abroad. We will receive the best treatment and you will definitely be cured."

I'm not afraid, you are.

Chao Ci sighed silently and patted his back gently.

This pat seemed to have touched some incredible switch, and He Lu suddenly started crying while hugging Chao Ci.

"Aci, ugh...I'm so scared, please don't leave me, okay..."

This guy suddenly cried like a dog, and Chao Ci also had black streaks all over his head.

But due to his character, he couldn't say anything and could only stroke his back again and again.

It was clearly him who was diagnosed with terminal cancer, so why were you here to comfort this guy?

…

He Lu acted very quickly. Within a few days, he contacted the hospital and doctor for Chao Ci and went to Country R, ​​which has the highest level of gastric cancer treatment.

The process of cancer treatment was very painful. In just a few months, Helu's eyes almost became swollen from crying.

He is now on the rise of his career, but he stayed in country R for the purpose of resigning. If he can put work matters online, he will put them online, and if he can't, he will just reject them. He returns to China once a week or so.

Basically, he booked a private flight, waited for Chao Ci to go to sleep, then rushed back to the country, and rushed back at noon the next day.

The one-year period has come, but neither of them mentioned it.

Today, Helu came over with red eyes, ready to push Cixi and take a stroll in the square outside.

Chao Ci was in a wheelchair, being pushed by He Lu.

The weather is very good today, and there are not too many people in the square.

Chao Ci stared at the balloon in the hand of a child, and when He Lu saw this, he went to buy a piece of ice cream and exchanged the balloon with the child.

Attached to the armrest of the wheelchair.

Chao Ci laughed: "You are so boring."

"It looks pretty tied up," He Lu said.

The yellow balloons are floating, which is really interesting.

He pushed Chao Ci and walked slowly, gradually arriving at the riverside.

The wind along the river was very cool, and the trees on both sides swayed gently, leaving twinkling lights and shadows on the ground.

"A Ci." He Lu called softly from behind.

Chao Ci turned his head slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Let's go to Las Vegas to get a license... okay?" His voice was cautious.

Chao Ci was a little surprised. He did not answer immediately, but turned back to look at the bridge in the distance.

River surface, water birds, and reeds.

"I don't have many years to live." He looked into the distance with calm eyes.

"It doesn't matter, just don't dislike me." He Lu's voice became softer and softer as he spoke, as if he was very weak.

[Sigh.] Chao Ci suddenly sighed at the system.

The system was shocked. I had never seen this ancestor look like this before!

【What's wrong?】The system asked him.

[A bit soft-hearted.] Chao Ci said.

The system almost wondered if it had heard it wrong, but it was a bunch of precise data, so it was so easy to make mistakes.

After a moment of silence, it asked tentatively: [How about... let's stop? 】

[…I’m not that soft-hearted, I still have to go back early.] Chao Ci said.

【...Oh, you scumbag!】

"Um."

Nod to Chao Ci.

He turned his back to Helu and could not see the man's ecstasy.

…

Ten days later, He Lu took his court documents to Las Vegas to collect his certificate.

This matter was not hidden from He Lu's family, and their patience reached its limit.

The heir of the family went to country R to live permanently for a small employee without saying a word. Forget it, the small employee didn't live long enough, and he still asked someone to get the certificate? Are you crazy?

That day, someone came to Helu's house, who seemed to be Helu's uncle.

Afterwards, Chao Ci didn't see He Lu for nearly a month.

After coming back again, He Lu lost a lot of weight, but he didn't say what happened, as if nothing happened.

He was still as attached to Chao Ci as before, cooking food for Chao Ci in various ways based on Chao Ci's extremely limited recipes, and sleeping next to Chao Ci at night. His long arms and legs shrank in aggrievedness

A bed board extending next to the hospital bed.

While Chao Ci was undergoing chemotherapy, tears continued to flow.

Chao Ci originally thought that he would leave in two or three years, but with this condition, he could basically only survive here.

But He Lu spent an unknown amount of money on him, and the sky-high treatment fees kept Chao Ci alive until five years later.

The weather was very sunny on the day I left.

However, Chao Ci was already in shape and bones, and his whole body was thin and out of shape.
