What Liu Gen said made Xiao Xiao mistakenly think that it was an excuse for him not to go to the United States to marry his daughter.
"Hmph...boy, don't think I don't know that you can't let go of Ouyang Xue!" Xiao Xiaoteng stood up and pointed at Liu Gen: "Liu Gen, if you are a man, you should take responsibility for what you have done!"
Ouyang Xue, yes, and Ouyang Xue.
Liu Gen thought: I have too many responsibilities!
"I'm sorry, Professor Xiao..." Liu Gen stood up slowly, feeling dizzy: "I will explain it clearly to Su Su. It's time for me to go, Ouyang is still waiting for me in the lobby." He forgot to talk to Xiao Xiao.
Talking about Wen Hanmei.
"Stop!" Xiao Xiao shouted loudly as Liu Gen walked toward the door.
Liugen stood still.
Xiao Xiao suppressed his anger, stepped forward, and said in a slow tone: "Liu Gen, please understand a father's heart. I don't want Susu to be depressed because of you. She still has a long life in the future. You understand me."
What do you mean?"
"I know." Liu Gen looked back at Xiao Xiao, shook his head and said helplessly: "But I...can't do what you said, I'm really sorry."
"Don't be too busy refusing. Go back and think about it carefully. I'll wait for you to make the right choice." Xiao Xiao patted Liu Gen on the shoulder and took a deep breath, as if he had sobered up: "Liu Gen, I was a little out of control just now.
, maybe I really drank too much. I am also responsible for the child. If I had not taken Susu away and left her in Nanhai, it would not have happened..."
Liu Gen interrupted Xiao Xiao: "No, it's my fault. Susu said at the beginning that as long as I didn't let her leave, she would stay, but I didn't keep her... Please Professor Xiao don't blame Susu, she
That's right, it was me who let down her affection and failed to be with her when she needed me most. It was my fault that harmed the child..." When Liu Gen thought of the lost child, he couldn't help but feel sad.
My heart arose, the tears that had just stopped filled the corners of my eyes again, my voice was choked and I couldn't continue speaking.
Xiao Xiao also seemed to be infected by Liu Gen's sadness: "Susu asked me not to tell you the truth, but I drank... Sigh..." He sighed: "It's all over. Susu is very strong.
I want you to go to the United States. You are a natural student of medicine. I will not misjudge you. You should receive the best medical education. Even if...even if you don't want to marry Susu, I won't.
I'm asking for it, but I sincerely hope that you will go abroad to learn the most advanced medical technology. The domestic education system and academic research are far behind others. At home, you may be able to surpass Xiao Li Fei's knife in the future, but you will not be able to compete with the first-class foreign surgeons.
Compared with doctors, there is still a big gap. Take congenital heart disease as an example. In the United States, the fetus can be diagnosed with congenital heart disease while it is still in the mother's body. Interventional surgery can be used to repair the problem in the fetus.
The heart valve can be repaired, allowing the fetus to grow healthily in the mother's body. In this way, after the baby is born, there is no need for surgical repair like the ones currently used in China, which greatly reduces medical expenses and neonatal mortality."
"Thank you Professor Xiao for your kindness." Liu Genyou said bitterly: "I really can't take off that military uniform at the moment."
"Don't soldiers retire when their service period is over? You can wait until your service period is over before you go out." Xiao Xiao compromised and said: "Or, wait until you get your bachelor's degree in five years and then apply to go to graduate school.
That’s okay too.”
"Professor Xiao, I..." Liu Gen said in embarrassment: "So, I am no longer just an active soldier."
"Not just an active soldier? What do you mean?" Xiao Xiao frowned and stared at Liu Gen and asked.
"I..." Liu Gen was hesitating whether he should tell the truth: "I am a specially recruited special soldier. I am a lifelong professional soldier. I will rest until death." He felt that it was best not to let Xiao Xiao know too much.
That would do him no good, so I made up this explanation.
"Is there a military order?" Xiao Xiao didn't believe it. How could anyone force someone to this point now?
"So." Liu Gen nodded and replied.
"So you are determined to work in the army for the rest of your life?"
Liu Gen hesitated for a moment and nodded again: "Yes."
"Go away! I misjudged the person!" Xiao Xiao waved his hand, turned around and stopped looking at Liu Gen.
"Professor Xiao..." Liu Gen's throat slid and he swallowed: "You should rest early, I'm leaving." He took a big step, opened the door and stepped out of the room.
Ouyang Xue was sitting on the sofa in the lobby reading a magazine. She looked up from time to time in the direction of the elevator. When she saw Liu Gen walking out of the elevator, she put down the magazine and walked up to him.
"Liu Gen... eh... what's wrong with you?" Ouyang Xue saw Liu Gen's eyes were red: "Have you ever cried?"
"No way." Liu Gen squeezed out a smile and avoided Ouyang Xue's beautiful eyes: "It's not too early to go."
The two of them walked side by side towards the door of the hotel. Ouyang Xue tilted her head and looked at Liu Gen's face, and asked tentatively: "What did Professor Xiao tell you? It's about Xiao Subai..."
"I didn't say anything, just catching up on old times." Liu Gen interrupted Ouyang Xue.
"Then what are you..." The more Ouyang Xue looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong with Liu Gen.
"I said, it's nothing!" Liu Gen raised his voice and glared at Ouyang Xue with an annoyed look on his face.
"Why are you being so fierce!" Ouyang Xue pouted and took Liu Gen's arm: "It's like I've noticed that you've done something bad."
"I'm sorry, Ouyang, I have a headache, maybe it's because of drinking." Liu Gen realized that he shouldn't take his anger out on Ouyang Xue.
"Is there really nothing wrong?" Ouyang Xuet knew Liu Gen too well: "Tell the truth, did you cry just now?"
"Men don't shed tears easily. Why am I crying for no reason?" Liu Gen cracked his mouth and said with a smile: "It was Professor Xiao who asked me to take off my military uniform and go abroad to study medicine. I refused him in person, which pissed off all of us.
The great hero Xiao was scolded by him."
After walking out of the hotel and walking to the car, Ouyang Xue said before getting in: "I think you can consider Professor Xiao's suggestion. Even if you are expelled from the school again, as long as you can work towards your ideals, there is no difference between home and abroad.
"
Liu Gen opened the car door and looked at Ouyang Xue's beautiful face: "Ouyang, do you really think so?"
Ouyang Xue smiled and got into the car.
Liu Gen also sat in. Ouyang Xue started the car and said, "As long as your ideal can be realized, I support it."
"I will not go to the United States. My home is in China." Liu Gen said resolutely, looking at the night outside the windshield.
"If my dad hears what you said, he will definitely give you extra points." Ouyang Xue drove the car: "When I was in high school, my mother wanted me to take international classes and apply for foreign universities in the future, but my dad said
, why do you have to study in a foreign university? Don’t forget, we are Chinese!"
"Ouyang, summer vacation is coming. Go home and spend time with your parents. You haven't gone back during winter vacation." Liu Gen changed the subject.
"Well, now there is a car from the base to pick you up. It's time for me to go home and go on vacation with my mother." Ouyang Xue said.
Mentioning the base made Liu Gen's heart, which had calmed down a bit, start to tighten again. He thought of his current situation and also thought that Ouyang Xue might also be targeted.
"Ouyang, if one day I..." Liu Gen suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart: "I mean, if I do anything to hurt you in the future, please forgive me, because no matter how deeply I hurt you, then
This is not my intention..."
"Liu Gen, what are you talking about?" Ouyang glanced at Liu Gen inexplicably: "Close your eyes and squint for a while. I'll drive the car slower."
Liu Gen obediently closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, but his heart could not close. He was thinking about the child he lost. Although the child may not have been formed when Xiao Subai miscarried, and he could not tell whether it was a boy or a girl, but
After all, it was his own flesh and blood. If Xiao Subai had not had an accident, the child might have been born long ago and would be three or four months old. Liu Gen believed that Xiao Subai would be a very competent mother, but he could not fulfill his responsibilities as a father.
Liu Gen's heart felt as if it was being minced in a meat grinder.
When he got home, Liu Gen lay on the bed with his clothes on without taking a shower.
Ouyang Xue turned on the air conditioner, pulled a thin quilt over him, and kissed his face: "Have a good sleep, good night." She gently closed the door and went to the attic to read. The final exam was about to begin.
However, Liu Gen couldn't fall asleep. He tossed and turned, his mind was filled with children, and he thought he should call Xiao Subai, so he got up, walked out of the bedroom, went to the living room, took out his mobile phone from his bag, and glanced up the stairs to the attic. He knew that Ouyang
The snow was up there, and he didn't want her to hear it, so he went back to the bedroom, locked the door, and then called Xiao Subai.
The bell rang a few times before Xiao Subai's voice came: "Brother Gen, have you seen my dad?" It seemed as if Liu Gen had already known that Liu Gen would call.
"I just came back from the hotel where Professor Xiao stayed." Liu Gen said: "Susu, Professor Xiao told me, I'm sorry, those days were difficult?"
After a moment of silence, Xiao Subai spoke, and Liu Gen could hear her sobbing.
"Brother Gen, I didn't protect our child well. I'm sorry for you..."
"Susu, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me in time after you found out you were pregnant, maybe I wouldn't have..." Liu Gen choked up with regret.
"I deceived you and did not take the medicine. I knew that the person you loved was Ouyang Xue, so I wanted to use the excuse of being pregnant with your child to tie up your grandma. But when I knew that I really had your child
, but suddenly I didn’t want to do that. I just wanted to give birth to the child and raise it alone... But I didn’t expect... The damn Yankees, they killed my child... I hate the United States and all the people here...
"Xiao Subai said intermittently on the phone, sobbing, and all the suppressed shadows were vented towards Liu Gen.
Liu Gen listened quietly and shed tears silently, feeling guilty for not being able to be by Xiao Subai's side.
Just when Liu Gen got up and opened the door to the living room to get his mobile phone, he heard the sound of the door opening downstairs. He put down his textbook and wanted to come down to see if Liu Gen wanted to drink water. When Liu Gen walked into the bedroom and closed the door, Ouyang Xue saw it.
So, after she went downstairs, she walked directly to the door of Liu Gen's bedroom, raised her hand to knock on the door and went in, but she heard Liu Gen talking to someone, and happened to hear, "Su Su, why didn't you tell me earlier? What if you knew you were pregnant?"
If you tell me in time after you have the child, maybe I won't...' At this sentence, she was stunned.
