Chapter 012: Leaving happy memories at the door of the operating room.
Tang Xiyan and Xixi held hands tightly, looking at the red light. She didn't know why she was sitting here, and what did sitting here mean?
Regarding this issue, she no longer wanted to waste her brain cells thinking about it, just because she didn't want to disappoint her daughter.
If she gets a malignant tumor, there may not be much she can do for her daughter, and this is one of them.
On the rest chair in the operating room, in addition to their mother and daughter, there was also a couple sitting there, probably because their child was sick. The two looked very solemn, especially the woman who wiped her tears from time to time. At this time, the man
He would hold a woman's shoulder and comfort her.
It was also a torturous wait, but Tang Xiyan felt that they were happy.
happiness?
Tang Xiyan had forgotten how long it had been since these two words entered her heart, but now she suddenly longed for these two words, but she was afraid she had no chance.
Tang Xiyan hugged Xixi and kissed the top of her hair, "Xixi, what kind of happiness do you want?"
Xixi looked up at her, as if she was surprised that her mother would ask her this question, but she still answered, "Mom, the happiness I want is actually..." She paused, as if he was hesitating whether to say it or not.
"Say it," Tang Xiyan understood her daughter's little thoughts. She was afraid of accidentally saying the wrong thing and making herself unhappy.
Speaking of which, she has owed a lot to Xixi in the past few years, at least she owes her a complete love.
"...Well, the happiness I want is that my parents still have me, and we can live happily together," Xixi's answer was not what Tang Xiyan expected, but it made her heart hurt.
The happiness her daughter wants is so simple, but she can't give it to her.
"I'm sorry," Tang Xiyan hugged her daughter.
"Mom, can you please stop being angry with Dad? He...actually he saved us." During the whole rescue process, Xixi was awake and saw everything, but today this is the first time she told
Tang Xiyan, even though she already knew.
"Dad got hurt all because of us," Xixi said, with two crystal tears falling down.
Tang Xiyan's heart felt like it was being grilled by fire coals. This feeling was really worse than death.
Two hours later.
Lin Anye was pushed out with tubes inserted all over his body. He was still under anesthesia, as quiet as if he was asleep. In this way, he was no longer cold, no longer violent, and even a little helpless.
He makes people feel sad when he is like this.
Tang Xiyan's test report will not be available until a week later, and she has already prepared for the worst. As the so-called self-healing, she actually knows very well what her illness is.
Thinking that one day soon, she would leave the father and daughter forever, she felt that there was nothing she could not let go of. What's more, she couldn't bear to remember her daughter when she grew up, without any happy moments in her memory.
"Mom, did you say you want to take care of dad?" When Tang Xiyan told Xixi her decision, the light shining in her dark pupils could almost burn people's eyes.
Tang Xiyan nodded.
"Mom, I...I love you so much," Xixi said, holding her face and giving her a sweet kiss.
Seeing Xixi's joyful expression, Tang Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief. She should have done something right this time.
Lin Anye woke up and when he saw Tang Xiyan, he thought he was hallucinating or had not yet woken up from his dream. It was not until she helped him up and her breath completely entered his lungs that he was sure it was true.
.
My heart was surprised at that moment.
However, the pain diluted his joy.
Is she pitying him or giving him charity?
If so, he doesn't need it!
"Who asked you to come, get out!" His tone was cold.
Tang Xiyan raised her eyes, poured him a glass of water, tested the temperature of the water with her mouth, then inserted a straw and handed it to his mouth, "Drink water."
"Get away," he said. His hand had just been grafted and he couldn't move it at all, otherwise he would knock over the cup.
"I'll let you drink water," she insisted, looking at him with a pair of stubborn black eyes.
"Get out!" His temper was on the verge of collapse.
"Lin Anye, do you think you can still yell at me like before?" Tang Xiyan said, forcing one end of the straw into his mouth, ignoring his eyes spitting fire, and sneered, "You
Not anymore."
This woman is not here to take care of him, she just wants him to die quickly!
Otherwise, how could you be so angry with him?
The straw was put in his mouth, but he didn't suck it and fought her silently. Tang Xiyan had no choice but to take the cup away, pulled up a chair and sat beside his bed, "Lin Anye, if you want
I won’t stop you from dying, but your death must not be this time.”
He didn't understand what she meant and frowned.
"If you die because of this burn, then I owe you a life. This debt is too expensive and I can't afford it. And I'm afraid you will ask me to pay it back in the next life." At this point, Tang Xiyan smiled.
Although her smile was thin and cool, it was also extremely beautiful, because Lin Anye hadn't seen her smile in an unknown amount of time.
"I've struggled with you enough in this life. I want to stay away from you in the next life." After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and pulled the straw out of his mouth. "So you have to take good care of the disease this time. As for you in the future,
It has nothing to do with me whether I want to live or die."
Lin Anye looked at her, wanting to see the flaws in her eyes, wanting to see that she was just irritating him by saying this, but unfortunately her eyes were calm.
Is this what she really thinks?
She hates him so much that she even counts her next life?
"Even if I die this time, it has nothing to do with you." Lin Anye's heart was broken, but it broke even more after hearing her words, "Don't think that I became like this just to save you.
…I am saving my daughter, and saving you is just my daughter’s intention.”
Such duplicity made Tang Xiyan sigh in her heart.
He was so proud that he could even tell such a lie, and in the past few years, if he hadn't been so proud and she hadn't been so stubborn, maybe they wouldn't be where they are today.
It’s just that it’s too late to say anything now!
"Really? It turns out you were just taking it easy," she agreed with him with a smile.
He snorted, as if to say, what do you think?
The two have lived together for nine years. Although they have always resented each other, they also understood. Tang Xiyan handed him the cup again and inserted a straw into him, "I came to take care of you at Xixi's request. It's just convenient.
."
She bit hard on the last four words.
"..." Lin Anye was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.
If this woman takes care of him like this, she simply wants him to die faster.
"Drink, it's not worth dying for a woman like me," Tang Xiyan persuaded him mockingly as she put the straw in his mouth again.
If Lin Anye could move, he really wanted to choke her and beat her severely.
The two of them just kept getting along with each other, noisily and harmlessly, but they also had some fun.
One evening, Tang Xiyan pushed him outside. The doctor said that exposing him to sunlight in the early morning or evening would promote skin regeneration, so she insisted on pushing him out every day.
However, due to the large burn area of Lin Anye, the skin graft could not be completely transplanted every time. Even after two months, there were still large areas of skin on his face with burn marks.
Normally, Tang Xiyan would cover him with a layer of gauze when he went out. Today he also covered it, but the wind was a bit strong and it blew it away, and his ugly face was exposed to everyone's eyes.
Adults can still accept it, and at most they sigh. But children may not be able to accept it. Some are frightened and cry, and some come over to scold him.
When Tang Xiyan came back from picking up the tulle, she saw two children surrounding him, calling them ugly. At that moment, seeing the pain in his eyes, her heart felt as if it had been whipped by a whip.
"Shut up," she ran over and scolded them angrily.
After all, he was a child. When he saw the fierce Tang Xiyan, he was immediately frightened and cried.
At this time, their parents ran over and hugged the children protectively, "What's wrong, honey? What's wrong?"
Tang Xiyan was furious and directed her anger towards the children's parents, "How do you usually educate your children to make them so uneducated?"
Originally, the parents felt distressed when their children cried, but now they are being scolded, and they are not happy either, "Hey, why are you talking? Our children are young and uneducated, but you are so old, and you are not well-educated? The whole
Ugly monsters come out to scare people..."
Hearing the adults say that to Lin Anye, Tang Xiyan was really angry. She rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward, "Who are you calling ugly? Say it again!"
"Ugly, just a ghost..."
Snapped--
Before the woman could finish her humiliation, Tang Xiyan slapped her head in the face. The woman became anxious and rushed over to fight with Tang Xiyan. Suddenly, the two women were fighting on the green lawn.
More and more people were watching, and finally the dean was alerted. He came over to calm everything down, and apologized to Lin Anye again and again, "Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry. I will let them apologize to you, as well as Mrs. Lin's injury."
,us……"
"No need," Lin Anye interrupted him, "They were right, I am ugly to begin with."
Hearing his words, Tang Xiyan's eyes suddenly heated up. In the past, Lin Anye's casual stop was an attractive sight, but now that he was being laughed at, he must have felt even more uncomfortable.
Pushing him back to the ward, she remained silent. Lin Anye noticed her emotions and knew that she was blaming herself.
"I'm thirsty," he said, running out of words.
Tang Xiyan poured him a glass of water and handed it to him. Now that his arms could move freely, he no longer had to wait on her, but instead of taking the glass, he held her hand and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Although she tried her best to hide it, he still saw the scratches on her arms. In fact, she was very quiet. She must be very angry if she could fight with others today. Thinking about how Gu Xinting bullied her in the past, she didn't say a word. It turned out that she
It's not that she won't be angry, but it didn't touch her bottom line.
Today, when that woman scolded him, she must have touched her bottom line!
It turns out that he is her bottom line.
Although Lin Anye was laughed at, he was in a good mood.
"I don't feel any pain," she said duplicitously, struggling to pull her hand away because his palm was so hot that it burned her whole body.
"Lying in front of me, do you think you're good enough?" He spoke in a domineering tone and opened her sleeves, revealing large scratches, "How dare you say it doesn't hurt?"
She bit her lip and said nothing.
Lin Anye pressed the pager and asked the nurse to bring gauze and disinfectant. Tang Xiyan thought the nurse would do everything for her, but she was wrong. He actually drove the nurse away and cleaned her wounds himself.
"No, let the nurse come." How could a man like him, who could reach out for clothes and open his mouth for food, do such a thing for her? This was something she never dared to think about in her life.
"Afraid that my skills are not good?" he asked back.
She didn't know how to answer. In fact, she was not worried about this, but she couldn't stand such an atmosphere.
At this moment, he was holding her arm with one hand and cleaning her wound with the other. He was so focused that Tang Xiyan felt like the blood in her body was boiling and her heartbeat was racing.
"It's not...I..." she hesitated to explain.
"I will be very careful and tell me if it hurts," he interrupted her, his voice so gentle that it made her feel as if she had fallen into a dreamlike unreality.
She looked at him blankly. His hair was all new, and it was a thin layer close to his scalp. This illness made him lose a lot of weight, and his facial features became more prominent. Although the facial features on his face were
His skin hadn't healed yet, but she didn't think he was ugly at all.
Those who say he is ugly are simply blinded by shit.
"Well..." The pain in her arm brought her back to reality.
Lin Anye raised his eyes, "Did it hurt you?"
His voice was so gentle, like candy that melted in your mouth. Tang Xiyan didn't dare to open her mouth to respond, but just nodded.
"Then I'll be gentler." In fact, his movements were already very gentle.
After a while, Tang Xiyan finally heard him say two words softly, "Okay!"
She breathed a sigh of relief, as if she was very tired, but she didn't look closely. He was the one who was really tired, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
If you use too much force, you might not be able to clean the wound, but if you use too much force, you might hurt her. It's really difficult for Lin Anye's gun-holding hand to be so uncertain.
"Don't fight with others anymore," when Tang Xiyan turned around, she heard his voice behind her.
She was startled when she heard him say again, "Do you think I'm ugly too?"
Thinking of the pain in his eyes before, she turned back and glared at him, "You are not as beautiful as before, but your heart is more beautiful than before."
Is she praising him?
As soon as Lin Anye raised the corners of her lips, Tang Xiyan raised her legs and ran away, and he saw a shy red cloud on her face.
Because of this little accident, the distance between them became closer. Every time Lin Anye looked at her busy figure for him, he felt extremely grateful that he was injured this time. But he didn't know that there was a list in Tang Xiyan's pocket.
, the higher authorities have already sentenced her to death.
"I want to eat pears," he couldn't bear that she was too tired, so he made an excuse and asked her to sit down.
She put down what she was doing, washed her hands and came over to peel a pear for him, but the pear was too big, so she peeled half of it and gave it to him. Unexpectedly, she held it up for a while, but he didn't pick it up. She was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Aren’t you going to stop eating again?”
She knew about his bad temper.
"Who told you that pears can be eaten separately?" he asked, his tone also cold.
Divide the pears, separate!
Tang Xiyan reacted and the corners of her lips twitched. How could the dignified boss Lin be so superstitious?
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the ward. They both turned around at the same time, but when they saw the person at the door, their expressions froze unnaturally.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Anye said, with an unwelcome tone in his tone.
Gu Xinting walked in with a smile, "Of course I'm here to see you...you guys."
Her eyes swept over Tang Xiyan, and the smile in her eyes had a deep meaning. This woman had always been very scheming, and Tang Xiyan knew it very well, but now that she was standing here, it was obvious that she was superfluous. She put the pears aside and stood up to leave.
"Where are you going?" For some reason, Lin Anye felt flustered when he saw her turn around, as if he was afraid that he would never see her again if she left.
"I'll buy you some other fruits," Tang Xiyan said and walked out of the ward without waiting for Lin Anye to speak again.
Gu Xinting looked at Lin Anye's eyes staring at the door for a long time, and her heart felt dull and uncomfortable. What she said was also sarcastic, "As for it? It's so sticky that you can't even separate it for a minute, right?"
Listening to her harsh voice, Lin Anye frowned and said, "If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Gu Xinting heard the impatience in his tone, and the last hope in her heart was shattered, "My leg is broken, so I didn't come to see you."
"No need!"
"..." She smiled bitterly, "I'm here today to tell you that I'm going abroad with my son."
"This is your freedom," he said, still sullen.
A layer of paleness appeared on Gu Xinting's face, "I have been with you for so many years, and you don't miss me at all?"
She was never willing to give in.
"Gu Xinting, you should know my feelings. I have always told you that it is impossible for me to fall in love with you." Every word he said was so ruthless, like a knife scratching her heart, but she was already numb.
.
Yes, in the past years, although she had been by his side and received his favor, he had always clearly told her that he would not fall in love with her.
The only person he loves in his heart is Tang Xiyan. No matter how cold or bad she is to him, he still loves her just like she loves him.
This is the base nature of human beings.
"So I give up now," Gu Xinting was also proud. She didn't want to make herself lose too embarrassingly, so she forced a smile.
He said nothing, and his deep eyes finally fell on her face.
Gu Xinting endured the overwhelming sadness in her heart and stood up, "I wish you happiness."
He still didn't answer. Gu Xinting took out an equity transfer agreement from her bag and said, "For the sake of following you all these years, give me the last gift!"
Lin Anye was not surprised by her request. In fact, even if she didn't want it, he would take the initiative to give it to her.
Lin Anye looked at the contents of the equity transfer document. He only wanted 2% of the shares, which was reasonable. He signed his name. At that moment, he heard Gu Xinting say, "I want to pay for my son."
Save some money for school."
Lin Anye handed her the signed equity transfer letter, and then said, "I have two properties in the UK, and I will let someone transfer them to your name."
His gift surprised Gu Xinting, but she didn't refuse it. She was not that stupid. She gave him her best time, so he should give her some compensation.
"Thank you!" Gu Xinting said, putting the agreement into her bag and leaving.
Tang Xiyan bought some fruits outside, but her heart was in confusion. During this period of time, she almost forgot about Gu Xinting, and her appearance forced her to think about the past and also made her think about her future.
The medical certificate was always in her pocket. Her time was running out, so it was time for her to leave.
Just the thought of leaving made her heart hurt as if it was being compressed. This feeling had not happened for a long time, but it had appeared frequently recently, especially when she thought of leaving.
Has she started to lust after that person again?
But she no longer has that qualification.
So, she wanted to leave, and she also had to find a reason for her departure, so she looked at the fruit in her hand and finally threw it into the trash can.
When she returned to the ward, Gu Xinting was no longer there. Lin Anye was leaning on the bedside. When he saw her coming in, he asked directly, "Why did it take so long?"
Tang Xiyan looked around deliberately, "How long? Before I came in, I was worried that I would be back early."
Lin Anye could hear the thorniness in her words, but he thought she was jealous and was not unhappy. Instead, he looked at her free hand and asked, "Where is the fruit you bought for me?"
Tang Xiyan glanced at him and said honestly, "Throw it away."
The harsh words made Lin Anye feel a little uncomfortable, but thinking that she was unhappy because of Gu Xinting's appearance, she smiled calmly and changed the subject, "I want to drink water."
"Can't you pour it yourself?" Although his hands and feet have long been healed, she has always been waiting on him to pour water and eat.
Lin Anye raised the corners of her lips, "I want you to fall!"
"Why?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a raised question. The sharp voice was a bit harsh. Lin Anye finally realized that she was not just jealous, "Yanyan, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't call me that, it's disgusting!" Her words became more and more aggressive.
Lin Anye frowned, got off the bed, and approached her, but she was separated by her hand, "Lin Anye, stay away from me."
At this moment, the alienation in her eyes, her indifference, seemed to bring their relationship back to the past.
He hates this sense of distance, he hates it so much!
"What are you making a fuss about? Are you jealous? Let me tell you, Tingting..." He wanted to explain, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Tang Xiyan.
"Don't be so sentimental. If I were jealous, I would be sour by now. How do you love her? Don't tell me. Don't dirty my ears!"
"you……"
"Lin Anye, from this moment on, we are still on the road to returning home. Taking care of you during this period of time is my compensation for misunderstanding you in the past," she said so ruthlessly. It turned out that she took care of him only because of the misunderstanding.
What hurt her father back then.
How can this woman be so cruel?
"I don't care about your compensation, get out!" He was also angered.
Tang Xiyan saw that his face turned blue because of her anger, and his heart contracted violently. This was the effect she wanted, and now she got it, so she could leave.
She took one last look at him and turned around!
However, as soon as her hand touched the door handle, she was grabbed by an arm. Before she could react, she was pressed against the wall on one side...
His heavy breath blew on her cheek, and after looking at her intently for a few seconds with his fiery black eyes, he kissed her heavily...
