Countdown to the whole book: I only wish you a bright life (6) and be a relative
"Don't cry..." Xi Mo opened his eyes with a faint light and stared at her closely. His voice was low and hoarse, humming in the oxygen mask, a little blurry, but Mingzhu could still hear each word clearly.
.
Wiping away the tears on his cheeks with his fingers, he bit his lip and choked out his voice, "I won't cry, you have a good rest. Don't worry about anything! I will take care of myself, and don't worry about the company. We will wait until you get better."
Xi Mo looked at her with gratified eyes. He was very tired, and his eyes kept drooping downwards. Finally, he closed them slowly and fell into coma again.
Mingzhu pulled the quilt, put his cold hands inside, and stood up gropingly. Thank you for your kindness.
When passing by Ling Xi, she stopped, lowered her eyes and said, "If you don't care about Momo, please don't come to the hospital again. Go back and think about it carefully. If you don't understand clearly, don't come to me again."
After her cold words fell, she walked out of the ward directly, her delicate back hiding great tenacity. At this moment, she could not fall down, she had to hold on.
Whether it's for the company or Ximo.

"Mr. Lan has arranged the company's progress and schedule for the next two months. Now the company is running normally. Miss Xiao doesn't need to worry too much." The special assistant explained respectfully. He was directed by Lan Ximo from the grassroots level.
He was promoted to special assistant and became his confidant in the company.
"Have you made plans for the next two months?" Mingzhu frowned, wondering if his work efficiency was too fast.
"Yes." After the special assistant answered, he hesitated for a few seconds and explained: "During that time, Mr. Lan stayed in the company every day and night. He said he couldn't sleep, so he just finished the work. Everyone in the company admired Mr. Lan
, his abilities are really strong, and although he has very strict requirements on the abilities of his colleagues, he never forces people in the company to work overtime, but he works overtime alone every day."
A few simple words hit Mingzhu's heart hard and caused a shocking wave. She stayed in the company every day and night, couldn't sleep, worked overtime, and a vague figure appeared in her mind, sitting alone in a deserted office facing her work.
, my heart was filled with sadness, and my eyes were sore.
Mingzhu couldn't help but raise her hand and slowly touch the table in front of her. It was hard and cold, but she could still vaguely feel his temperature and breath.
"His body still needs a long period of recuperation, and you have to worry about the company's affairs."
"Please rest assured, Miss Xiao, I will definitely take care of the company for Mr. Lan before he comes back."
"Thanks."
"Ms. Xiao, you're welcome. This is what I should do. If there is nothing else, I will go out to work first."
"good."
The special assistant walked to the door and suddenly heard Mingzhu's urgent voice, "Do you know where else he goes besides the company and the Xiao family?".
"Mr. Lan usually doesn't go anywhere else." The special assistant stopped and looked back at her, "He is a very self-disciplined person and doesn't even like to socialize. He has no fixed place except the company and the Xiao family, but
——”
"But what?" Mingzhu asked anxiously.
"He would often stand alone at the window and look outside. No one knew what he was looking at. I asked him, but he just smiled faintly and refused to say anything."
"In front of the window?" Mingzhu frowned and stood up slowly. She didn't know where the window was, "Can you tell me in this direction?"
The special assistant brought her to the window lattice and looked at the blue sky outside, the snow that had not completely melted, and the sunlight filling the earth. "The place you are standing is where Mr. Lan often stands."
Mingzhu's fingers slowly landed on the window lattice and groped gently. She had a very strange feeling, as if he was standing next to her and stroking the same position, and two different parallel times and spaces suddenly overlapped.
"Is there anything outside the window?"
"It's nothing special, just a city view. But the sky is really beautiful from here."
"Is this direction facing Xiao's house?" Mingzhu asked self-consciously.
The special assistant was stunned and suddenly realized, "Yes! This position is in the direction of Xiao's house. Miss Xiao, you are so smart. How did you guess that?"
There was a silent bitterness at the corner of Mingzhu's mouth, and something struck her heart, which made her extremely uncomfortable. During those days, Xi Mo deliberately avoided herself and left himself alone with Taida. He hid here alone and numbed himself with work. When he couldn't bear it,
Just standing here alone, looking at Xiao Zhai, looking at - myself.
When the special assistant couldn't get the answer, his eyes fell into the distance, and when he landed on her cheek again, he was shocked, "Miss Xiao, why are you crying? Did I say something wrong?"
Mingzhu couldn't stop shaking her head, her tears couldn't stop falling, "It's not your fault, it's my fault... It's always been my fault."
His fingers slowly moved down, and he collapsed on the ground. Crystal tears hung on his cheeks, shining with incomparable apology and regret, and he couldn't stop crying.
The special assistant wanted to pull her up, but he didn't dare. Seeing her crying heartbrokenly and standing helpless, she really didn't know what to do.
It would be great if Mr. Lan was here. Mr. Lan would definitely know how to comfort Miss Xiao.
*****************************************
Mingzhu and Sister Rong have been in the hospital these days. Lan Ximo's condition is much better than when he woke up, but he still can't get out of bed and continues to lie down.
He didn't need to worry about the company's affairs, and Mingzhu didn't worry either. She just sat in the ward every day, either listening to the radio or reading Braille books, and didn't speak much.
Xiao Zimo was hospitalized before. She was relatively familiar with the place and didn't need Sister Rong to worry. She could just concentrate on taking care of Xi Mo.
The Chinese New Year will be here in a few days, and the hospital is obviously deserted. All that can be heard are probably the trivial things about the Chinese New Year. But all these seem to have nothing to do with Mingzhu. She has locked herself up and completely isolated herself from the world.
After Xi Mo took a nap, he opened his eyes and saw her sitting in front of the bed, with a book on her knees, her face calm, touching the Braille book, very attentive and concentrated.
"It's almost the Chinese New Year, you should go back." Xi Mo said calmly, his voice still slightly hoarse just after waking up.
Mingzhu put down her book when she heard the voice, as if she hadn't heard it, "Are you awake? Are you hungry? I'll pour you some water!" Before he could answer, she stood up and walked to the table to fumble for the water bottle, holding the cup carefully.
Because I couldn't see, I could only pour half a glass of water based on my feeling and walked up to him.
"Mingzhu, be obedient. Don't stay in the hospital. Go back with Sister Rong as soon as possible. There are nurses here to take care of me." Xi Mo took the water glass and took a sip.
Mingzhu leaned over and touched the stool, sat down slowly, and then spoke: "The doctor said that you can go home to recuperate in a few days, but you will still have to use a wheelchair. Your body is not suitable for walking. You will come back after the new year."
"Pearl..."
"Xiting and Lianlian should still be in Beijing, let them come with them." Lan Xiting and the others were kicked out of the Lan family. She probably knew something about it.
"Are you willing to forgive them?" Xi Mo's eyes flashed with surprise.
Mingzhu's expression was indifferent, her thin lips pursed slightly, as if sighing, as if helpless, "After all, we are all relatives."
No matter how much I hate you, how can I bear to embarrass you?
Mingzhu, let’s go! Don’t worry about everything here, it’s just you and me, find a place where no one knows us, and start over! These words have been stuck in Xi Mo’s throat, and he wanted to do this from the moment he knew the truth.
She said that too many things had happened and he could no longer say such things.
"Mingzhu, you can choose not to forgive." Xi Mo pursed his lips, his tone showing distress. He would rather she be sharper and more selfish. As long as she lives an easy life, anything will be fine.
"I don't want to mention the past anymore. You have a good rest. Sister Rong will take you out of the hospital in two days. You can inform Xi Ting and the others yourself. I'll ask the doctor to see if there is anything else I need to pay attention to."
As she stood up, turned around and was about to leave, Lan Ximo suddenly grabbed her hand, raised his head and stared deeply into her face, saying in a hard voice, "Mingzhu, are you -" Forgive me?
Mingzhu didn't move for a long time, and she didn't ask him anything. She just stood and didn't push his hand away.
Xi Mo looked at her expression, his heart gradually became cold, and he was immersed in the water little by little. She was willing to stay in the hospital, to accompany him, and to let herself and Xi Ting spend the New Year at Xiao's house. This was just to sympathize with and repay herself.
That's all for Xiao's enterprise.
Lan Ximo, what are you still hoping for?
The strength of her fingers slowly moved downwards, her eyes filled with loss and desolation. Just when her fingers were about to leave her wrist, Mingzhu suddenly turned around and grabbed his hand.
Xi Mo stiffened and looked up at her in disbelief, as if he was dreaming.
Mingzhu's expression didn't change much, but her hand holding his trembled violently, betraying her calm mood. Her voice was cold and cold, "Have a good rest and wait until you get better."
Is this considered...forgiveness?
Mingzhu didn't say anything, she just leaned forward and held his silhouette with both hands, and her lips fell on his forehead, "Momo, it's okay."
Xi Mo didn't say anything, his eyes were shining brightly as he stared at her, and there was hope in his eyes again, as if he was alive again.
*****
When Mingzhu returned to Xiao's house, Ling Xi was sitting on the sofa, with his pink down jacket and pink backpack beside him.
"You are finally willing to come back."
There is no emotion in the lukewarm words.
Mingzhu stopped and said nothing. Sister-in-law Rong said, "Master Ling Xi, where are you going?"
"Go home for the New Year!!" Ling Xi stood up and walked to Mingzhu with a swagger, showing an innocent smile, "My father called me and asked me to come and take me back if I don't know how to go to the New Year! So -
Sorry, I can't stay with you."
"It's okay." Mingzhu said calmly without any surprise. She touched the T-shirt with half sleeves on his shoulders and frowned, "Why don't you wear something warmer? Xuerong is very cold."
Seeing that she was willing to talk to him properly, the corners of Ling Xi's eyes couldn't help but turn up, and her tone became relaxed, "I want to be beautiful! But you, don't take advantage of my absence to fight with the big-tailed wolf.
