In the pot, the steamed chawanmushi was slowly cooking. You Tong raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and a sincere smile appeared on his face. His face was fair and clean, his eyebrows were clear and bright, and his smile was so bright. That smile
More beautiful than the flowers in the mountains and forests
Sitting in a taxi back to downtown Taipei, the car slowly drove through andesite and pine plank roads. Along the way, there were green pines and cypresses, the chirping of insects and birds, and the air was so thick with phytoncides that it could not be dissolved.
Her peaceful face was reflected on the car window, with only her eyes showing eagerness. The time was approaching ten o'clock, and she hoped she could make it in time.
She would never forget the way he looked depressed while leaning on her shoulder in the hospital last night, nor could she forget the helpless expression on his face this morning when he recalled what kind of food his mother liked to eat. It turns out that no matter how strong a man is, there are
When he is weak, it turns out that he is not omnipotent
The wheels rolled, and so did hers
Suddenly, the cell phone in the bag started shouting, and You Tong trembled subconsciously, fearing who was calling with bad news.
He timidly took out the phone, and after seeing the caller ID, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He gently pressed the answer button and said "hello" softly, "Rong Chen... I'm sorry, I have something to do today and can't go to the company..."
It was really bad. This was the first time that she had returned to the headquarters to handle business on behalf of the Tainan branch, but she was absent at a critical moment... However, she had no choice. She really couldn't worry about the hospital and couldn't worry about it... He
"It's okay, just be fine," Rong Chen said softly without asking any questions.
You Tong's fingers holding the fuselage were slightly tightened, and she hung up the phone after saying "goodbye". She felt uneasy again, wondering if Rong Chen already knew about Gu Yirong's hospitalization.
The car circled on the mountain road and drove slowly towards Taipei city.
On the other end of the phone, Rong Chen was holding the hung up phone in his hand. He hadn't put it down for a long time. Under his sharp eyebrows, his slender peach blossom eyes were full of passion, but there was a hint of loss that flashed away.

At 11:20, the taxi You Tong took finally arrived in downtown Taipei and stopped smoothly at the entrance of National Taiwan University Hospital.
After paying, You Tong quickly got out of the car, holding the chawanmushi wrapped layer by layer in cloth bags, and trotted all the way to the elevator.
But the elevator was suspended, and there was a sign saying it was under maintenance next to it.
She turned her head and looked at the other one. There were so many people.
Gritting her teeth, she quickly rushed towards the corner. Looking at the layers of marble steps, she comforted herself that it was only the ninth floor, she could do it!
Taking a deep breath, she rushed forward quickly
First floor, second floor, third floor... When you reached the seventh floor, You Tong felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest, but she still didn't stop and continued running to higher floors. She never knew that she
Her physical strength turned out to be so good, as if there was something pulling her upstairs, leading her legs up unconsciously, and up again.
Finally, the green 9-character logo on the wall came into view. The round circle was posted on the white wall. It was so green and dazzling, giving people a sense of vitality.
You Tong breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at the white door of the ward, his heart beating loudly.
She grasped the cloth bag in her arms tightly, moved slowly, and reached out to hold the door handle. Just as she put her hand on it, she found that the door of the ward was not closed tightly, and it was ajar. There was a thin crack, and faint voices could be heard coming from the ward.
came out
"Don't worry too much, Auntie will be fine." The soft female voice sounded so nice, but it made You Tong feel depressed.
Through the crack in the door, she saw a familiar figure. Zhou Yafei had black hair spread behind her. She wore a silver-white shirt and slim jeans. She had a beautiful face, a slender figure, and a beautiful bracelet on her white wrist.
, all the outfits are so luxurious and exquisite, but they don’t feel superfluous or cumbersome at all, and the whole body is full of elegance.
Zhou Yafei turned to look at Rong Yuchi who said nothing. From her angle, she couldn't see Zhou Yafei's expression, but she could imagine that it must be tenderness and warmth.
Suddenly, a sourness flowed through my heart. I tightened my grip on the bag in my hand, and the chawanmushi with residual heat felt slightly hot to my hands.
The two burns on the back of my hand began to hurt. I didn't feel any pain when I was busy in the kitchen with the old man, but now...
The hand holding the doorknob slowly let go, and the injured hand secretly retracted behind its back.
Silently step back a few steps, turn around, walk to the corner of the stairs, and go downstairs step by step. This time, the pace is much slower.
It took about ten minutes for You Tong to arrive on the first floor, handed the bag in his hand to the nurse at the front desk, forced a smile, and said softly, "Excuse me, please give this to the special care unit on the 9th floor.
people"
"Okay, please fill out the record sheet first." The nurse in pink uniform handed over the notebook and pen.
You Tong took it silently and filled in a few lines, but the name at the signature was empty.
"Miss, you need to sign, this is the rule," the nurse reminded her softly.
You Tong was slightly startled, said "Sorry", and slowly wrote on the paper, but there was only one word "You". For some reason, she didn't want to write the word "Tong" because it would make her think of him.
How to call her, Tongtong...Tongtong...
After completing the formalities, You Tong turned around and left. The automatic door opened slowly, and her tired face was reflected on the glass.
Wandering on the street, but not knowing where to go, there were many flower shops next to the hospital. She subconsciously walked into one and chose a fresh bouquet of carnations, paired with baby's breath.
When I came out, I subconsciously turned my head and looked in the direction of the hospital.
After a silence, he walked resolutely in the opposite direction!
But just after walking a few steps, under a streetlight on the sidewalk, a man's tall body was leaning there, holding a slender cigarette between his fingers, smoking one after another.
"You..." You Tong thought she was dazzled and blinked hard. He was still in the same place. She paused and her pink lips opened slightly in disbelief.
