Xia Qingyuan returned to Yanyuan in a daze, without the enthusiasm for work in the past. He first ordered someone to go through the formalities for his daughter to leave school, and then he personally typed a leave certificate, and then sat sadly on the sofa chair in a daze.
Because of his age, he rarely smokes anymore.
But in the past week, he has been carrying a pack of cigarettes in his pocket. When he feels so depressed that he cannot extricate himself, he will light one and let the acrid smoke swirl in his lungs to cheer him up.
But can smoking refresh you?
Xia Qingyuan put out his cigarette with a sad expression, finished the work at hand, stood up slowly, and walked out of the office.
Xia Qingyuan is an old man with great professional ethics. He has never delayed his official duties due to personal matters in his life. He has always been highly rated in the school. But this time, he has to ask for leave, and it is a long vacation.
If he doesn't ask for leave, he's afraid that his wife won't be able to support him alone, and he's even more afraid that,
Xia Qingyuan left Yanyuan and took a taxi to the People's Hospital.
He didn't drive because he was not in good spirits. It would be difficult for him to drive in this state without getting into an accident. And now, he is the only backbone of the family. He can't let himself get into an accident, let alone fall. If he is Fallen, who will save this family on the verge of collapse?
The hospital needed to issue many certificates, and he had countless procedures to go through. Xia Qingyuan, who rarely entered the hospital, felt cold in his heart, and his cloudy eyes were even more dim.
He didn't know what evil he had done, and God wanted to treat him like this,
Have you committed murder or arson? Have you burned, killed or looted? Or have you failed to deal with any student?
No,
None of it,
Then why does God treat me like this?
To treat his own daughter so cruelly,
Xia Qingyuan worked hard to complete the formalities. He squatted alone in the corner of the safe corridor and choked silently, feeling helpless as if the end of the world was coming.
…
tick,
tick,
On the wall, the wall clock ticked. Xia's mother was holding a bowl of fragrant soup in her hand, sitting beside the bed with a confused expression, and quietly staring at her daughter curled up on the bed.
She mustered up the courage several times, but she didn't know what to say.
"Xiao Xia," Xia's mother said in a hoarse voice, "Drink a bowl of soup. You haven't eaten for several days. Mom made you your favorite pork bone soup."
Xia Shuzhu turned over slightly on the bed. Her beautiful eyes that were originally gleaming were dim, and her dry lips looked at her mother who seemed to have aged ten years overnight. She pursed her lips and said, "Mom, put it down. I'll drink it in a moment." .”
"Do you really know how to drink?" As soon as Xia's mother left her mouth, she started crying again.
But she didn't dare to say anything more. She knew that her daughter's mood had reached the bottom. She gently put the pork bone soup on the bedside, hesitated for a while, and murmured: "Xiao Xia, your dad went to the hospital to check you in." The formalities are done, you have a good rest tonight, we will go to the hospital tomorrow."
"Well." Xia Shuzhu nodded with empty eyes and said, "Mom, you should rest early and don't exhaust yourself. Didn't the doctor say that I have a 30% recovery rate? It's nothing. incurable disease."
Hearing this, Xia's mother felt sour in her heart. She tilted her head slightly to hold back her tears, and then said, "Well, don't worry too much. Our family never does bad things and we can always get through this."
Xia Shuzhu nodded and said no more words.
After Xia's mother left, Xia Shuzhu suddenly felt that her body was so cold, and her heart was so cold.
She tried her best to hold on to the quilt to prevent the cold air from penetrating into her body. Her cheeks, which were originally as red as peaches, were as pale as paper. She turned over gently and took out the sweaty mobile phone from the quilt.
His slender fingers pressed on the button for a while, then typed out a text message with difficulty, and then selected the first number. The number's name was Lin Ze.
Xia Shuzhu's fingers were trembling, she wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.
Not sending,
I have to send it,
She was not sure of her survival. She had to break away from him.
Her parents are already suffering enough. She doesn't want one more person to suffer. She can't.
Thirty percent recovery rate,
That was what she lied to her mother and herself,
It was discovered too late. The doctor had already said that the chance of recovery was lower than that of ordinary patients. How could Xia Shuzhu be sure that he could survive?
She is not a very strong woman, and she is not a woman who can easily face death.
She is just an ordinary woman. She cries when she is sad. She wants to be hugged by the man she loves when she is sad. She feels wronged when she is bullied. The most painful thing she has experienced in her life is just being cheated by her roommate. How can she Have the courage to face your own terminal illness,
She didn't, so she didn't want him to face it with her.
With tears streaming down her face, Xia Shuzhu pressed the button cruelly.
"Lin Ze, let's break up."
…
bang bang,
Yue Qun punched and kicked Lin Ze, but Lin Ze kicked him away.
Deng Deng stared...
With a bruised nose and a swollen face, Lin Ze took a few steps back and felt a sharp pain in his chest. On the other hand, Yue Qun also had his eye sockets swollen due to him, and his clothes were covered with dust.
Lin Ze has made some progress,
He could feel it himself, and Yue Qun also felt it.
But there is still a long way to go to meet Lin Tianwang’s requirements.
Yue Qun dusted off his body and dived forward again,
King Lin Tian said that only when Lin Ze defeats himself can he be considered as a master.
Now, he doesn't have the strength to defeat himself at all, so Yue Qun has to keep fighting with him until he can defeat himself, "Wait a minute."
Lin Ze waved his hand, wiped away the blood stains on the corner of his mouth, and took out his mobile phone from his arms in disgrace.
The text message was from Xia Shuzhu,
He hasn't contacted Xia Shuzhu for a long time. Isn't she studying like crazy? Suddenly she asked him, what happened?
Lin Ze quickly opened the text message and was stunned when he saw it.
"Lin Ze, let's break up."
Lin Ze fell into a dazed state and even ignored Yue Qun's attack.
Bang,
His whole body was knocked out, but he remained indifferent.
"What's wrong with you?" Yue Qun couldn't take back his fist and knocked Lin Ze down with one punch. He asked apologetically,
Lin Ze struggled to get up from the ground, holding the phone tightly, shaking his head and saying, "It's nothing."
Then, he turned and walked towards the living room, dialing Xia Shuzhu's number as he walked.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently on a call. Please call again later."
Lin Ze became more and more curious and hit several more times in succession.
But every time, the other party didn't answer, and his heart gradually sank.
"I'm going out for a while."
Lin Ze took his coat and informed Han Xiaoyi who had just come downstairs.
What happened to Xia Shuzhu?
Why did she break up with herself?
Is it because I haven’t contacted her for a while?
But, she shouldn't be such a woman, right?
Then why?
Is it because, does she have a man she likes again?
is that so,
Lin Ze was thinking wildly while driving. He couldn't help but press the accelerator to the bottom and rushed towards Xia Shuzhu's home.
Bang,
After closing the car door, Lin Ze strode towards Xia Shuzhu's home. As soon as he went upstairs, he met Xia Qingyuan who was about to open the door.
"Uncle Xia." Lin Ze walked up to him and asked seriously, "What's wrong with Xiao Xia?"
"She..." Xia Qingyuan's turbid eyes were slightly red, and he stared at Lin Ze with a sad expression. He patted his shoulder gently and said, "Xiao Lin, go back, she doesn't want to see you."
"Why..." Lin Ze raised his eyebrows, and an ominous premonition rushed into his heart.
"She...she has leukemia. She was diagnosed a week ago."
