bet on life
After David left, Xia Xiaobei had already put his clothes on the edge of the bed. Ye Shaoqian was very imposing when he got angry just now. Now he became quiet and it seemed difficult to smile.
Xia Xiaobei was afraid of embarrassment, so he opened the bag he brought and asked him: "Do you want to change your clothes? Aunt Qin said you are not used to the hospital's hospital gown, so I will bring you all your pajamas and slippers."
He turned his head and said "um" softly.
Xia Xiaobei then arranged all his pajamas and asked him, "Which one should I wear?"
His expression was still unnatural: "Whatever you want."
Xia Xiaobei picked a blue-gray one and handed it to him, put the slippers at his feet, and then said, "Then you change your clothes first, I'll go out and wait."
Just as he was about to walk away, his hand was pulled by Ye Shaoqian. He seemed a little disappointed and looked at her and said, "Is it going to leave now?"
Xia Xiaobei was stunned: "Can I still watch here if you change your clothes?"
Ye Shaoqian couldn't help laughing, with a little embarrassed face. He pulled her sleeve and asked, "Can you stay and accompany me for a while?"
He used "Can you?" and had a nearly begging tone. Xia Xiaobei couldn't bear it. He stroked his hand and pressed it on his palm: "I'll wait at the door. Call me if you have anything to do."
He said again: "My hands hurt."
Xia Xiaobei glanced at his hand that was still wrapped in gauze. It was probably hot and the pot with oil was hit straight in, so hesitantly asked: "Do you... can't change it yourself?"
He smiled helplessly and nodded.
Xia Xiaobei suddenly didn't know whether to be embarrassed or distressed. He hesitated for a moment, nodded and turned around. He took the pajamas in his hand and said, "This one?"
"Yes." He squinted his eyes, obviously very helpful, and nodded with satisfaction.
He sat on the edge of the bed, and she stood facing him, bent down to unbutton him. He was wearing a hospital uniform with no design style. The white set looked very beautiful when worn on him. Anyway, it was just a clothes rack, and it was enviable wherever he went.
He opened his arms, Xia Xiaobei unbuttoned and helped him take off his shirt. The air inside was slightly cold, and he was naked and didn't tremble. When her fingers touched him unconsciously, he would squint his eyes and smile. When she put on his pajama jacket, he suddenly grabbed her hand and rubbed his fingers gently on the back of her hand.
Xia Xiaobei was slightly embarrassed, patted the dishonest hand and glanced at him: "Be serious."
He smiled more and more happily, but kept calm and said, "I'm very serious."
But soon both of them couldn't get serious. Because after changing his shirt, he had to change his pants.
Xia Xiaobei took his pajamas and pants, thought for a while, closed his eyes and said, "Stretch your legs."
Ye Shaoqian sat obediently on the bed, stretching his long legs straight. When Xia Xiaobei reached over, he inevitably blushed.
Ye Shaoqian's pleasant chuckling was heard. She didn't raise her head and replied: "What are you laughing at? I've taken a shower for you. Are you still afraid of changing your pants?"
The laughter above his head was stopped very well, but Xia Xiaobei still found it difficult to calm down.
Xia Xiaobeiji coughed unnaturally, quickly helped him take off his pants, then put on his pajamas, and when she buttoned him, he rubbed her hair with satisfaction and said in a low voice: "In this way, we're going to be even."
She lowered her head and didn't hear it clearly. She waited until all the buttons were pressed on, then she raised her head and asked him, "What?"
Her hands were warm, soft, and her fingers were slender. He actually enjoyed it very much. He held it in his palm and rubbed it carefully, kissed her fingertips, and said, "Forgive me for being so selfish, Xiaobei. I know that the person you love is not me. When I learned about this condition, I also thought of letting you go, but you chased me over and asked me why I didn't keep my promise. I really want to take care of you all my life. Xiaobei, please forgive me, forgive me for being so selfish, and forgive me for never letting you go again."
He smiled, but there were countless loneliness in his eyes.
Xia Xiaobei was panicked and held his hand tightly: "I forgive you, I don't care about anything. I just want you to fulfill your promise, take good care of me, and take good care of me for the rest of your life."
"Well," his voice was soft, so unpredictable, "I won't die so soon."
He mentioned this word in an extremely relaxed tone, but she was shocked all over, raised her eyebrows and stared at him: "What nonsense? What are you talking about? You won't die, you won't die at all! David said, your disease is not life-threatening, just undergo surgery... Yes, you can recover with just surgery!"
She didn't know why she was so anxious. She searched her head and went to find the most optimistic words David had ever said. Ye Shaoqian smiled: "I know, forty percent of the winning chances. I have decided to undergo surgery. For you, I will definitely survive."
He rubbed her hair as if he was talking about something that was not painful, not life-related surgery.
"I was hesitant before. Maybe you want to laugh at me, but I was really scared. When David said he was 60% sure, I was afraid. I didn't dare to face the remaining 40% chance. I thought instead of going to a gamble, it would be better to keep the remaining time and do what I wanted to do. I was afraid that you would regret it in the future, so I took my own initiative to push you away. But I have never seen a girl as stubborn as you chased me from a distance. When you rushed out of the parking lot, you stopped me in front of me. I looked at you and I knew that I was finished and I would never leave you in my life. Later, my struggle in the club made me even more embarrassed. I drank a lot of wine and ran to where you lived. At that time, what I thought was that anyway, I might as well take what I wanted for myself once I died."
He told her the words buried in his heart and looked at her with a solemn look: "It was then that I realized that the only thing I wanted to do was to guard you and live with you for the rest of my life. So, I decided to undergo surgery. No matter what the result is, I hope I can give each other a hope."
Xia Xiaobei pressed his face tightly against his chest. This is probably the most beautiful love words she has ever heard in the world!
Because I love you, I am willing to try my best for you and .
Ye Shaoqian stayed in the hospital for observation for a few days. Every time Xia Xiaobei went to help him get medicine, he would have a whole bottle of bottles, all kinds of things. He had to eat more than a dozen at a time. The drug treatment process was extremely hard. Sometimes when he saw his pale face and forbearing smile, Xia Xiaobei was sweating for him. So when the weather was sunny, he often accompanied him on the green space of the hospital.
Just after getting an injection that day, Ye Shaoqian's face was gray and looked extremely scary. Every time this time, Xia Xiaobei wished he could suffer for him.
But he just looked at her, smiled with difficulty, and reached out to her: "Come here, why are you standing so far?"
She approached, held his cold hand, but still didn't speak.
Ye Shaoqian closed his eyes slightly, as if he was resting. It took a long time to open his eyes and looked at her and said, "I want to eat the dishes you cook."
Xia Xiaobei was stunned. In fact, the guards had been bringing the food in the past few days of hospitalization. Needless to think about it, it was Qin Shulan's instructions. The combination of meat and vegetables and the dishes were exquisite. A few Chinese medicines were added to condition it. It can be said that it was the most nutritious and scientific diet, and it also had the effect of diet therapy. I wonder why he suddenly wanted to eat the dishes she made.
As if guessing her thoughts, Ye Shaoqian wrinkled his nose and said, "Don't think I don't know. The aunt always asks people to secretly add bear gall to the soup, which is so bad." After saying that, she was like a child: "I don't care, I'll drink the soup you made."
Xia Xiaobei had no choice but to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables after he fell asleep. He bought all the fresh sea bass, free-range local chickens, soup casseroles, wolfberry, angelica and other medicinal ingredients, and he also had two big bags in his hand.
When I returned home, the kitchen was still the same as Shaoqian left when something happened to him that day. It was messy and a burnt wok was thrown into the pool to soak.
Xia Xiaobei looked at it for a while, shook his head and sighed, rolled up his sleeves and packed it up.
She has always been not good at cooking. She learned to steam fish with her mother Xia, but it was the first time she made soup. She had to take her laptop to the kitchen and search for recipes on Baidu while processing the ingredients. The sea bass was too fresh and jumped around in the plastic bag from time to time, which often made her feel busy.
She spent more than an hour patiently killing the fish, took off the internal organs, and cleaned them. She then slurped the whole chicken she bought into the water and lost blood foam. She stuffed the green onion slices and ginger slices and Chinese medicine into her belly, muttering the words: "Boil the high heat, change to low heat, simmer for two to three hours..." While watching, the phone suddenly rang in the living room. She panicked, and the whole chicken she was dealing with in her hand fell directly into the pot, splashing countless water splashes.
She didn't bother to wipe it, and wiped her hand on her apron and rushed out to answer the phone, because she knew that only Shao Qian was calling at this time.
Sure enough, as soon as I picked it up, I heard his low laughter: "What are you doing? It took me so long to pick it up?"
She was a little annoyed: "You said you wanted to drink soup, you knew I couldn't make soup..."
He smiled and said, "Then you have to thank me for giving you such an opportunity to exercise so that you can be a good wife and mother in the future."
She said helplessly: "Okay, then the future virtuous wife, Miss Xia, may you ask Ye San, if you drink soup with a saltier taste or lighter?"
He thought about it very seriously: "Then let's be lighter."
Both of them were silent for a while, and a faint warm feeling came through the thin telephone line. Perhaps both of them felt it, so no one spoke.
After a while, a gurgling sound seemed to be heard in the kitchen, and Xia Xiaobei jumped up: "I forgot that the fire is not turned off! Oh, the soup is about to be thrown out..."
She was about to put the phone down, but Ye Shaoqian called out: "Xiaobei."
"ah?"
"I miss you."
Four very simple words, she only left the hospital for less than six hours, but this sentence made her blush for no reason across the phone.
She didn't know how shy she was, so she quickly said, "I'll go see you after I finish cooking the soup." Then she hung up the phone immediately.
When she returned to the kitchen, the casserole was indeed covered with large white mist. The lid was sizzling with water splashes. She hurriedly lifted it up, and suddenly got scalded her hands and pinched her ears for a long time. Finally, she turned off the heat and simmered it slowly and slowly, took the spoon and skimmed the foam a little bit. She did this for the first time seriously, but she felt full of happiness in her heart.
In the evening, she went to the hospital to see him with a food box and a heat-insulating bucket.
When she reached the door of the ward, she suddenly heard someone talking inside. She thought that maybe a visitor was coming. Shaoqian's friends were mostly extraordinary people and did not dare to neglect them, so she knocked on the door politely.
Shao Qian smiled at her and said, "You are finally here."
"Yeah." She walked in, and it happened that she was checking rounds every day. David was there, and there was a girl she had never seen before. She was tall, wearing a goose yellow velvet sweater, with a pleated skirt above the knees and a calfskin boots. It was already the meaning of early spring. When she turned to look at her, her big eyes were flickering at Xia Xiaobei, but she didn't mean to introduce herself.
Xia Xiaobei was not inconvenient to ask more questions. Just as he glanced at him, he saw the girl holding the exquisite and gorgeous lunch box in the big hotel in his hand, and the color suddenly dimmed and secretly hid the insulation bucket behind him.
It happened that David was also observing the lunch box and suddenly asked: "Did you order it in Kunlun?"
The girl nodded proudly: "I made an appointment with the chef there, and added several precious medicinal herbs, including deer antlers and ginseng..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by David's rude laughter: "Tsk tsk, I should make up for it too. Anyway, Ye San can't eat it, don't waste it, just respect me, brother."
The girl suddenly looked at Ye Shaoqian with grievance: "Third Brother--"
Ye Shaoqian always smiled and said, "Didn't David just said that? I'm just recovering from a serious illness and I'm not replenished. How can I eat these nutritious things? Anyway, throwing them away is a waste, so I'll satisfy his cravings."
Even the patient said this himself, and the girl's face turned blue and white, so she threw all the lunch boxes into the trash can: "I won't give it to him if I lose it! Humph!" She spread all her anger on David's head.
When the girl walked away, Xia Xiaobei curled her lips, thinking that she had been in vain, so she turned around and threw the insulation bucket into the trash can. Fortunately, Ye Shaoqian stopped her and insisted that she take it for him to see what it was. Xia Xiaobei couldn't persuade him, so she threw it into his arms: "Anyway, it's not as good as your little girl."
He opened it with great interest, and the aroma of chicken soup suddenly spread in the ward. David, who was beside him, showed a mouth-watering expression, looked into the insulation bucket and said, "No wonder you made people angry. It turned out that you had prepared the chicken soup for love long ago."
Xia Xiaobei was stunned: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Ye Shaoqian held the chicken soup and pinched her little nose with his hot hands: "What are you intentionally or not? She smelled the soup and knew that there were bear gallbladder and deer antlers inside. I want to vomit when I smell it now. It's still my wife, you make the soup delicious."
David on the side couldn't stand his soreness and sighed: "Oh, just stimulate me as a bachelor. No one can make soup if you fall ill in the future."
Xia Xiaobei was a little embarrassed: "I have made a lot of them, and I also have steamed fish, let's eat them together."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shaoqian snatched him away: "No, this is for me. I can't eat it alone."
Xia Xiaobei looked at him helplessly: "I can really finish eating?"
Ye Shaoqian nodded firmly.
David couldn't stop shaking his head: "I really want to ask your former girlfriends to come and see what is the difference between Mr. Ye's food-protecting side and a puppy."
Xia Xiaobei rounded his eyes: "Oh... It turns out that your old lovers are all in Beijing."
Ye Shaoqian hurriedly shook his head: "No, don't listen to him talking nonsense." Then he gave a warning look.
If David hadn't heard of it, he would have assumed it was all revenge for him to threaten his medical license a few days ago.
When David left, Xia Xiaobei sat obediently on the edge of the bed, took spoonfuls of spoonfuls and blew the soup cold and fed it to him.
He ate very well, picked up a chopstick and fish meat, and then drank the soup. He ate whatever she fed him. The corners of his mouth were slightly bent, and the entire insulated bucket of soup was drunk by him.
While feeding her, she asked him: "Who was that girl just now? Your former girlfriend?"
"Where is my sister." He ate it smelled good and explained in a vague way.
"Sister?" The doubts in her eyes became deeper.
Seeing that she had misunderstood, she quickly added: "It's not what you think, it's really my sister, my dear sister."
She said: "You have a little daughter?"
He shook his head: "No, it's my brother-in-law's youngest daughter, the Lu family's youngest daughter. When I was a child, I always played behind our butts. Didn't I help my brother-in-law's company a while ago? I happened to meet her on winter vacation and took her to dinner several times. This time I don't know where she heard that I was sick, so she insisted on coming to visit her." After that, she added: "You little girl, can you be jealous?"
Xia Xiaobei glanced at him: "Who said I was jealous? It's a pity that I just gave her the food box."
