Lu Haiyao came out of the doctor's office and saw Gu Tingchuan talking to a three-year-old boy not far away. The most sincere love was written on his clear face.
The little boy was not afraid of strangers and allowed his strange uncle to hold him.
The little boy looked at Gu Tingchuan longingly with his black, tearful eyes, and said in a sweet voice, "Uncle, can you take me to find my mother?"
Speaking of his mother, the little boy's voice was choked with sobs, and crystal tears hung on his face.
Gu Tingchuan wiped the tears from his face and said with a smile, "Don't cry, don't cry. Uncle will take you to find your mother, okay?"
He looked anxious, as if he was deeply afraid that the little boy would cry, and he was helpless.
Hai Yao had never seen him like this before, and was surprised that he actually liked children with his careless appearance.
She walked over, and Gu Tingchuan looked back at her, teasing the little boy, "Mom, does this aunt look pretty?"
The little baby looked at Hai Yao's appearance seriously, "Of course my mother is the prettiest."
After a pause, he smiled again and said, "Auntie is pretty, too."
Hearing this, Hai Yao couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch the little boy's face.
At this time, the little boy's mother finally found this place, looked at Tingchuan and Lu Haiyao with all kinds of gratitude, and said thank you several times, "Thank you so much, you two. If it weren't for you, I would be so happy."
I'm so scared, this little naughty guy slipped away and disappeared when I wasn't paying attention."
The little boy found his mother, lay on her shoulders, and hugged his mother tightly, as if he was afraid that her mother would disappear again.
"Baby, please tell your uncle and aunt quickly thank you."
The little boy then turned around and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, uncle and aunt."
That cute little look is really endearing.
Hai Yao likes children and feels that if she and Xu Yizhong have a child, they will be complete, but now this completeness can no longer be realized.
For no reason, a trace of melancholy and sadness arose in my heart.
"You like children?"
Gu Tingchuan saw that she was still looking at the direction where the little boy was leaving with a smile, and reached out to hold her hand. He felt the coolness on her hand and frowned slightly, "My hand is like ice cubes."
Hai Yao wanted to retract her hand, but he refused to let go and repeated the question just now, "Do you like children very much?"
She turned back her eyes and looked at him, duplicity saying, "I don't like it."
Hearing this, he frowned slightly, "Why?"
"There are not so many reasons. I liked it before, but I don't like it now. It's that simple."
There used to be a Yi Zhong, and she felt that the child belonging to her and Yi Zhong was pregnant in her belly, which was the happiest thing.
But now...it's impossible anymore.
Gu Tingchuan stopped asking, held her hand in his palm, and sighed, "My hands are so cold, I'm already sick, and I don't know how to wear more clothes."
As he said that, he took off his casual suit and put the clothes on her body imperiously, regardless of her protests, "Isn't this warmer?"
There is his warmth in the clothes.
How could it not be warm?
Haiyao only felt this warmth entering her heart, which reminded her of what Dr. Shicai said: He deliberately asked the expert doctor to cancel all surgeries and stay to see her.
It turned out that he brought her to the hospital to see a doctor.
But he didn't say anything, didn't say anything.
That night, the man who inexplicably became excessive and even angry with her, and the man who cares about her so much now, are they really the same person?
Haiyao no longer struggled to take off his coat, but instead tightened his grip on the clothes, lowered his eyes and asked, "You gave me your clothes, aren't you cold?"
"chilly."
He smiled lightly and saw her looking up at him, with a wicked smile on her lips, "But I have a way to keep warm."
"Um?"
She watched in confusion as he took a step closer to her, then opened his arms, hugged her into his arms, and wrapped her tightly in his arms.
A low voice drifted into Lu Haiyao's ears, "Hold you like this and you won't feel cold anymore."
At that moment, a strange feeling flowed through Lu Haiyao's heart.
And her eyes were red because she was hopeless, and she didn't know why she wanted to cry.
Has it been so long that no one knows how to hold her like this?
It had been a long time since anyone had treated her with such care. She knew that she was insecure, so she liked to be held with open arms and tightly wrapped in someone's arms.
She even began to doubt whether there were really people in this world who would love, care and care about her.
The softest part of her pretended to be strong heart was hit hard, making her eyes red with hopelessness, and she even felt a little nostalgic for Gu Tingchuan's embrace.
So strong, so warm...
Such a sense of presence.
This scene happened to be seen by Xu Yizhong, who was standing not far behind them. He stood there and found words to describe his mood at this moment for a long time.
He made a special trip to accompany Carry-on to the hospital for a check-up. While waiting for the results, he came out to smoke a cigarette and saw this scene.
Watching the man hug Lu Haiyao into his arms, Xu Yizhong felt a sting in his heart at that moment.
He couldn't wait to step forward and separate them.
But, what qualifications does he have?
That day, she was packing her things so anxiously that she didn't want to stay for a day, so he imagined moving in with Gu Tingchuan.
Later, when he found out that she was returning to the apartment building where she lived before getting married, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
Hai Yao seemed to be aware of the strange gazes. Anyone who walked by them would glance at them intentionally or unintentionally. She was thin-skinned and pushed him, "Everyone is watching, let go of me."
He didn't embarrass her, he let go of her but still held her hand tightly, "Now that we're at the hospital, let's go see Nian Wei."
"Um."
When Hai Yao heard this, she thought that Nian Wei would be excited and happy for a while, and she felt happy too, so she couldn't help but raise her lips.
However, when I turned around...
The smile gradually disappeared on his lips and became rigid.
She stared at Xu Yizhong blankly, almost subconsciously trying to shake Gu Tingchuan's hand, but she couldn't.
Gu Tingchuan went even further and pulled her over.
"Hello!"
"Gu Tingchuan!"
Haiyao called him in a low voice, trying to tell him to let go, but he seemed not to hear her.
Walking forward, I wanted to pretend to be a stranger and turn a blind eye, but as soon as I passed by Xu Yizhong, I heard him call out in a low voice, "Haiyao."
She paused in her steps and looked back at him for a long time, waiting for his next words.
Xu Yizhong forced himself to look away from their clasped hands. He opened his mouth to say something, but his phone suddenly rang.
He hung up and the phone rang again.
In desperation, I had no choice but to answer.
Haiyao smiled bitterly and let Gu Tingchuan pull her forward. As she walked, tears fell.
Because, she couldn't help but look back and saw him walking towards the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Heart, sour.
It turns out that he really has a child, and grandma will be very happy to have a little grandson...
****
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
He walked out concerned and disappointed, holding the B-ultrasound sheet in his hand, and read it no less than ten times, "How is this possible?"
"I obviously feel like I'm pregnant, I feel nauseous, and my period hasn't come."
"Yi Zhong, do you think this hospital did the wrong examination? How about we change to a few more hospitals?"
Caring held Xu Yizhong's hand and suggested reluctantly.
Seeing that Xu Yi was absent-minded, she shook his hand angrily, "What are you thinking about? You're absent-minded."
He came to his senses and said, "Nothing, what did you just say?"
He frowned with concern and felt unhappy, but he repeated it.
"Didn't the doctor say you just have a bad stomach? Why did you check so many times?"
"Don't I want to be really sure?"
She said with concern and reluctance that she didn't believe she couldn't conceive a child...
****
In the ward.
Gu Tingchuan was talking to Nianwei, while Haiyao was sitting on the bench outside in a daze.
Afterwards, Xiaobei came to the hospital and saw someone inside, so he also sat next to Haiyao and said, "Sister, actually brother Tingchuan doesn't like the second sister."
Haiyao was surprised why he said that, and looked at Xiaobei, "Why do you say that?"
Xiao Bei tilted his head and looked at her with his dark eyes, "You are both my sisters, but I hope you can be happy more. I can see that Brother Tingchuan likes you, not the second sister."
"If you bring him to see the second sister so often, it will only hurt the second sister if you make her sink deeper and deeper."
Lu Haiyao was surprised when he heard this, "Who...who said he likes me."
She couldn't tell at all that that man seemed to like her.
"Also, when did you get so close to him and call him Brother Tingchuan?"
Didn't Xiaobei threaten to settle a score with Gu Tingchuan that time?
Xiaobei lowered his head and said calmly, "Last time I had a dispute with someone at the bar, he helped me out, and..."
Xiaobei's voice lowered, and he looked at Haiyao carefully, "Sister, I told you not to be angry."
"Say it."
"The school had to pay tuition fees in those days, and I...I didn't have that much money. Brother Tingchuan knew that I wanted to make money by working in the bar, so he put 20,000 on my card."
"What!!"
Haiyao couldn't help but raise her voice and looked at Xiaobei in surprise, "He gave you money? And 20,000?"
"Well, I wanted to pay it back to him, but he wouldn't let me pay it back. He told me to pay it back after I work to earn money."
"Sister, he often asks about you, but rarely mentions the second sister. So based on a man's intuition, Brother Tingchuan doesn't like the second sister. Don't let happiness pass you by for the sake of the second sister."
Haiyao wanted to reprimand Xiaobei, but seeing the sincere emotion in his eyes, the words came to her lips, but she couldn't say them out.
Sighing, helpless, she held Xiaobei's hand and said, "Sister will help you pay back the money. You study hard and don't think about these things anymore, you know?"
"The matter between me and him is not as simple as you think, and he is not the good person you think he is, so don't worry about it anymore."
"But……"
"Stop being so mean, I'm going to be really angry."
Seeing this, Xiaobei lowered his head and sighed, "Okay, as long as you are not with Xu Yizhong, I will support you in whatever you do."
Hearing this, Hai Yao felt a silent sadness in her heart.
*******
On the way back, he asked a lot of questions, and she answered them all in a dull tone, until he stopped saying anything.
It wasn't that far from the hospital to where she lived.
For some reason, the traffic jam was particularly serious today. Haiyao felt that she had been in the car for a long time.
When she got downstairs, she was about to get out of the car without saying a word. He also got out of the car, stepped forward and took her hand, hugged her tightly from behind, buried his head in her neck, and deeply
He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Why are you unhappy again?"
After coming out of the hospital, he knew that she was worried.
Hai Yao wanted to break away, but he hugged her too tightly. She lowered her head and said helplessly, "Gu Tingchuan, how much do you want me to owe you?"
She gave 100,000 yuan to her brother, plus Nianwei's surgery expenses and post-operative treatment. He has always been the one to pay.
That day she went to see the dean, who warmly served her with tea and said, "We will go all out to arrange the best prosthesis and recovery treatment for your sister."
When she asked about the total cost, the dean said vaguely, "As for the cost, Mr. Gu asked us not to mention it to you, so as not to create too much pressure."
Gu Tingchuan contracted his arms, hugged her tightly, and whispered, "You owe me as much as you can."
Stay by his side and pay back for the rest of your life.
She was a little unhappy when she heard this, "Gu Tingchuan, I still have some money in my hand. Can I return it to you? Don't come to me again."
It would be great if the money was paid off and the contact between them was severed.
The person behind her visibly froze. Although he was still holding her, his tone suddenly cooled down, "You just think that I won't look for you anymore? Do you hate me so much?"
He turned her body around and looked at her seriously, "Lu Haiyao, do you really hate me so much?"
To say it's annoying is a bit hurtful.
Especially his current expression made it even more difficult for her to say anything.
After choking for a long time, he said, "It's not that I hate it, it's just..."
When Gu Tingchuan heard that she said she didn't hate her, he felt a little happy. He pulled her into his arms and said, "Since you don't hate her, don't think too much about anything. Just stay by my side and I will be good to you."
Haiyao sighed, knowing that it was impossible to get rid of this relationship for the time being.
She was in no mood and said dullly, "I'm tired, you should go back early."
After finishing speaking, she pushed him away, unable to even say goodbye, and turned around to walk towards the corridor.
****
In the study room.
Lieutenant Xu Yizhi put out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, and looked at the computer news about the company's stock market and his marriage problems with a solemn expression.
Somehow the paparazzi got word of his divorce and revealed that he was having an affair.
As soon as this news came out, the company's stock price plummeted instantly...
He checked the relevant news, stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window in annoyance, looked into the distance, and thought of what he saw in the hospital today.
The more he thought of her nestling in Gu Tingchuan's arms, the more annoyed he became.
I pulled off my tie and let my heart breathe, but the boredom still didn't lessen.
At this time, a clanging sound came from the kitchen.
Then there was the sound of screaming...
He walked out quickly and saw Caring in the kitchen, looking miserable.
There was a fire burning in the pot, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to go forward. As soon as I saw him coming out, I immediately ran over and hugged him aggrievedly, "It's so scary, the fire jumped up all of a sudden."
