Han Xiaotao sat beside Mrs. Yang's bed all afternoon, squinting her eyes and taking a nap.
Mrs. Bai brought the warm water back from the kettle. When she put it in, she accidentally made some noise, which woke Han Xiaotao up.
"Aunt Bai, just let me fetch water. You are so tired from working all day, so don't worry about these things." Han Xiaotao unscrewed the thermos, poured a glass of water and handed it to Mrs. Bai.
"Sigh." Mrs. Bai sighed and sat down. "Xiao Tao, are you tired after waiting all afternoon? Go back and rest."
"It's okay, I'll stay with you for a while. Although there are nurses, we still have to take care of the patients. I can also take care of you if I stay." Han Xiaotao sat down next to Mrs. Bai, held her hand and comforted her softly.
Mrs. Bai forced a smile, looked at Xiao Tao and said, "Thanks to you these days, otherwise I really don't know how to support her. A Jing is lucky to have a good daughter like you. Although she and your mother
The relationship between girls is not long-lasting, but the meeting between you and Aunt Bai was probably your mother's secret arrangement, so that you could come to me and accompany me at this time. Xiaotao, your mother and I are like relatives.
The same best friend, now she left early, leaving me and you. Now we will be companions. I also like you as a girl. If you don’t dislike it, you can accept Aunt Bai as your godmother. This is also me and you.
The promise my mother made back then, she is watching from the sky now, and I thought about her long-cherished wish."
"Where did Aunt Bai go? How could I dislike it?" Han Xiaotao said quickly, "It's just a little sudden. I'm afraid that I won't be able to climb up."
"This child, what are you talking about? From today on, you are half of my Yang Lin's daughter - no, you are my daughter. I will treat A Jing's daughter as my own daughter." Mrs. Bai
Said firmly.
Han Xiaotao lowered her head and laughed without refuting. From every conversation Mrs. Bai had, she could tell how deep the friendship was back then, so it wasn't unacceptable now. It's just that she suddenly had to have multiple "mothers"
", I'm not used to it. "Aunt Bai..."
"Still called Aunt Bai?" Mrs. Bai said, frowning and pretending to be angry.
"Ah..." Han Xiaotao paused and shouted awkwardly, "Fuck, godmother."
"Hey, that's right!" Madam Bai finally laughed sincerely in the past few days, but the smile lines on her face became more and more obvious. Han Xiaotao sighed, Madam Bai had indeed looked haggard these days.
There are two patients who have to worry. No matter how strong a woman is, she will not be able to bear it.
Han Xiaotao raised her head and said, "At this time, we should go over and see Bai... Zi Ling." Now that he has recognized Mrs. Bai as his godmother, his relationship with Bai Zi Ling is different, and Han Xiaotao also has some feelings.
Tangled, how should Bai Ziling deal with the news?
"Well, let's go." At the mention of Zi Ling who was still in the hospital bed, Mrs. Bai became depressed again. Han Xiaotao took her arm and walked to Bai Ziling's intensive care unit. He woke up for several days, although he did a lot of examinations.
, and also knew the fate he might face, but he was not as discouraged or cowardly as he imagined.
"Zi Ling." Han Xiaotao walked to the door of the ward and called.
Bai Ziling was reading a book. He raised his head and squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "Come here? How is grandma doing?"
"It's much better. I just went to bed. Thanks to Xiaotao who came to help take care of me. Your grandma can't eat food from the hospital, so she also goes to get takeaways every day. She is such a considerate child." Mrs. Bai was full of praises as soon as she entered the room.
Are you worried that Bai Ziling won't be able to accept this sudden extra sister?
"My godmother said so, so I, my goddaughter, am quite qualified." Han Xiaotao laughed humbly. Perhaps it was the dull atmosphere in this ward that made Han Xiaotao worried that it would affect Mrs. Bai's recovery.
mood.
"Fuck, godmother?" Bai Ziling heard this title and looked at the two of them in shock.
Mrs. Bai smiled and explained: "I have just recognized Xiaotao as my goddaughter. In terms of seniority, she is considered your sister."
"Sister..." Bai Ziling murmured even more surprised, with a look of absence in his eyes. From his most beloved lover to his mother's goddaughter, now she actually told herself to call him "sister", which made Bai Ziling unable to reply.
But God comes. I have been praying to God to let each other's identity take a further step. It turns out that this is the result of God's fulfillment?
Xiaotao knew what Bai Ziling was thinking, and she also knew that he would be disappointed. After a moment of silence, she showed a big smile, pouted and said to Bai Ziling: "What, if you don't accept it, I will be your sister?"
Bai Ziling lowered his head and laughed. Maybe this was God's will. At least God was kind to him, giving him a reason to cling to her. After a while, he raised his head and said to Xiao Tao: "That's it.
You want someone to take care of you and you still think of me as my sister? Don’t hold me back from now on."
Han Xiaotao's face turned red, she punched Bai Ziling on the shoulder and said, "Am I that bad?"
"Wow, is this a sister? You're so cruel!" Bai Ziling jokingly covered the sore spot and howled.
"If I don't give you a warning, how do you know I am the sister?" Han Xiaotao raised his eyebrows and declared proudly.
Seeing that the two of them could get along like this, Mrs. Bai felt relieved and smiled knowingly.
"Deng Deng."
A knock on the door interrupted the conversation in the room.
"Doctor?" Han Xiaotao turned around. He was Bai Ziling's attending doctor. "Are you going to have another checkup?"
The doctor flipped through the record book in his hand, frowned and said, "The test results have come out."
Mrs. Bai's eyelids obviously twitched, and she asked nervously: "Are you okay?"
Han Xiaotao glanced at Bai Ziling. Although he usually didn't say anything, anyone who encountered such a situation would be upset in his heart. No matter how mature and sensible Bai Ziling was, he was still a human being, and he was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy. She used
Putting your hands on his shoulders, it seemed that you could convey your courage to him.
The doctor sighed there, as if he was reluctant to say such words, but he had to fulfill his accusation. He looked through the examination records again, and finally his eyes stayed on the results, and said in a deep voice: "It's already
The diagnosis is leukemia."
"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Bai's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Han Xiaotao quickly stepped forward to support her and stopped.
Bai Ziling also yelled nervously: "Mom!" Then his throat seemed to be stuck, and he could no longer say any other words. There seemed to be some kind of sound buzzing in his ears, and he just started to listen.
He didn't know what it was, but gradually he discovered that it was a noun.
leukemia.
"How could that happen? How could this happen?" Madam Bai almost burst into tears, but her dry eyes were unable to shed tears due to fatigue.
"Godmother, don't be like this, don't be like this..." Han Xiaotao said, her eyes turning red and she started to choke.
"What evil happened to me in my previous life to encounter such a thing? Is God punishing me? But why should revenge be taken on my son? He is still so young, how could he suffer from such a disease like his father?
I'm sick..." Mrs. Bai howled, tears finally bursting out and she couldn't stop it. The graceful and noble posture of the past disappeared instantly.
The doctor sighed and said, "Mrs. Bai, don't worry. Master Bai's condition is a hereditary disease in the family. It is still the first time he has committed a disease. If treated in time, the chance of recovery is very high. The most critical issue right now is to find a match."
Bone marrow for transplantation treatment. We have contacted the bone marrow bank, but unfortunately...but we will speed up the search and hope that Mr. Bai will find his own destiny."
"Why...why do you do this to me, why..." Mrs. Bai clutched her sore chest, unable to stand up.
"Mom, don't be like this." Bai Ziling took her mother's cold hand. Han Xiaotao saw that Bai Ziling's eyes were a little red, and there were tears in her eyes, but she endured it with all her strength. She knew that this result was the most uncomfortable.
The real person should be Bai Ziling himself. He is still so young and has a bright future. No one can bear such a sudden blow. But for the sake of his family's emotions, he must hide all the pain and weakness and become a new person.
Must be stronger than a rock.
"Godmother, don't worry. Didn't the doctor say there is still hope? Our top priority now is to find a matching bone marrow. Zi Ling's physical condition is usually good, he can survive until then. As long as we have hope in our hearts, we will
There is life." Han Xiaotao hugged Mrs. Bai's shoulders and comforted her firmly.
Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, don't give up easily.
Han Xiaotao's mind was filled with such thoughts, coupled with worry and exhaustion, which made her a little breathless. When she walked out of the hospital, she seemed to be dizzy. She walked across the road without even looking at the traffic lights.
.
"Du-du--"
The sharp sound of the whistle stimulated Han Xiaotao's eardrums, causing her to suddenly come to her senses and realize that she was standing in the middle of the road with a car speeding towards her.
"Ah!" Han Xiaotao was stunned and froze on the spot, unable to move.
Suddenly, a strong force came from behind and pounced on Han Xiaotao, pulling her back from the wheel at the last second.
"Are you looking for death?!"
Han Xiaotao had not recovered from the fright just now, and half leaned against the broad chest behind her in a daze. The "thumping" heartbeat coming from the chest showed that the other party was also frightened, so there was
He heard the low-pitched roar just now.
Both of them stood there for a while before they had the strength to retreat back to the sidewalk.
"Han Xiaozhu, what do you want me to say to you? Can we ensure your safety by not letting you go out alone in the future?"
These curses seemed a bit familiar, but they made Han Xiaotao have an inexplicable urge to cry. The fatigue of the past few days, coupled with the fright just now, made it impossible for her to calm down for a while. She raised her head and looked at
It took a long time for the familiar face in front of me to speak.
"How will you be here?"
Yes, the dignified eldest son of the Cui family, the acting director of the Sapphire Group, obviously drove home well, but why did he appear at the door of the hospital at this time and save a rough fool?
