An unprecedented stinging pain hit his whole body. His heart felt as if it had been cruelly pierced by a steel needle. The pain was so painful that he wanted to cry out.
There was a deep apology on Chu He's handsome but confused face. He licked his chapped lips with his tongue, opened his mouth, and said hoarsely: "Sister..."
"Who is your sister!?" A cold look flashed between the woman's eyebrows.
"You!" Chu He strode towards the woman and said in a stern voice, "You are my sister!"
"You are the sister who has worked tirelessly to protect me for sixteen years!"
"You are the sister I will carry with me forever!"
"You are -" Chu He stared at the woman's pale and beautiful face tenderly. "My most beloved sister..."
The woman's body trembled slightly. Under the long curly eyelashes, a pair of black and white eyes stared at Chuhe. For an instant.
My most beloved sister?
What does it mean to be loved here?
"Sister, I'm sorry." Chu He summoned up the courage and raised his arm.
His arm stretched out towards the woman, but his movements were extremely slow. He was afraid of being hindered and was equally afraid of being rejected by the woman.
Fortunately, she was like that back then, no matter what strange behavior Chu He did, she would always not reject him and be reluctant to refuse him.
His fingers touched the woman's smooth skin, and finally landed on the soft and red corners of her lips: "Sister, you are bleeding."
The blood was warm and sticky. It was like the love she gave him. The woman pushed his hand away: "You don't have to worry about it."
"How could I not care?" Chu He unexpectedly took a step closer, only a few centimeters away from the woman's face, and he could even feel the woman's warm breath.
"You are my sister. My only sister. Why are you so cruel that you bite yourself to bleed?" Chu He said incoherently.
heartless?
Who can be crueler than you?
We stayed together for sixteen years. With one phone call and one word, it would end it all and not appear again for eight years?
The woman retreated subconsciously, a hint of throbbing flashed in her cold eyes: "Get out."
Her heart was confused.
Eight years.
She originally thought that eight years was enough time to let go of everything. She even thought that she could take revenge on him coldly and cruelly.
But she overestimated herself and even underestimated the status of the man in front of her in her heart.
Time cannot erase the imprint he left on my heart. On the contrary, it will collapse at the first touch...
The defense line built up for eight years collapsed after a brief conversation. The woman could not face He Ning with her heart as calm as water and cold as ice. She could only drive Chu He out.
Hearing this, Chu He took out a pack of tissues and said softly: "Sister, your lip has been bitten, let me wipe it for you."
"No need." The woman frowned and said inhumanely. "Get out."
Chu He's just-raised arm stayed in the air, and there was a touch of bitterness that was difficult to melt at the corner of his lips. He said, "I'll pack up and leave."
There was an overturned tea set on the ground, and the small coffee table was broken into several pieces. Chu He cleaned it up with his bare hands. Just as he was about to get up, a tearing pain surged through his head.
Frowning slightly, Chu He pressed his right ear with one hand and squeezed hard.
His movement wasn't too big, but he couldn't escape the woman's sight. He pursed his lips, and the woman opened her mouth, then slowly closed it when Chu He stood up with difficulty.
She hates him.
So hateful.
I hate him for being cruel, I hate him for being ruthless. I hate him even more for not having heard from him.
Eight years. He abandoned her for eight years and let her live in hell.
"call--"
Chu He threw all the garbage into the trash can and let out a heavy breath.
The severe pain made his whole body tremble uncontrollably. Unable to move his legs, he sat opposite the woman with a pale face. Trembling, he took out the special liquor and drank half of the bottle.
It’s been three years since I’ve been in such pain…
Chu He broke out in cold sweat, a subtle bitter smile appeared on his pale face, and thought to himself: "Maybe this is retribution?"
The raging headache made Chu He lose consciousness in that moment. He slumped down on the chair and lit a cigarette in silence.
According to the advice of the previous field doctor, he may have suffered from an old illness caused by excessive mood swings, which affected his cranial nerves and caused pain. He shook his head gently, and Chu He, who could barely walk, stood up with difficulty. A smile appeared on his pale face and he said
: "Sister, I'm going down first."
"Wait." The woman called Chu He coldly.
Chu He was startled. He didn't know why.
The woman picked up the landline and dialed a number and said, "Come up here."
One minute.
A middle-aged man about forty years old came in carrying a medical kit. He first saluted the woman with a standard military salute. Then he stood aside and waited for orders.
"Check his head." The woman said calmly. "Especially the right ear."
The middle-aged man took out the tools and asked Chu He to sit on the edge of the bed with his head lowered and accept the middle-aged man's examination.
After a detailed inspection, the middle-aged man had a slightly strange expression. He pressed the back of Chu He's head with his rough fingers and asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Chu He shook his head.
The middle-aged man pressed Chu He's ear again and asked, "Where is this place?"
Chu He frowned slightly. He endured the pain and said, "A little."
"Do you have a headache at night?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Occasionally." Chu He replied.
"It's often, right?"
Chu He was speechless and did not respond.
After receiving the answer, the middle-aged man saluted the woman and said, "This gentleman's ear nerves were severely injured. There are also residual sequelae on his brain. But according to modern medicine, if he can be saved, he should not have such serious sequelae."
"
The woman's face was tense and she said calmly: "Check his body too."
"No need." Chu He waved his hand hurriedly. "Sister, you know, I have loved fighting since I was a child. It is inevitable that I will get bumped and bumped. They are all old injuries, so they don't matter."
Hearing this, the woman waved her hand and signaled the military doctor to go out.
The military doctor hesitated for a moment, then approached the woman and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "This gentleman does have a hearing problem in his right ear. In layman's terms, it's the back of the ear. It's caused by trauma to the ear nerve."
After the military doctor left, the woman's tense face could no longer hold on. She looked at Chuhe in confusion, and said in a trembling voice: "When did you get hurt?"
"Protecting the chief five years ago." Chu He pretended to be exaggerated and smoothed his hair that was messed up by the military doctor. "At that time, a cannonball came over. I couldn't avoid it, so I had to hug the chief and throw myself on the ground."
That time was the closest Chu He came to death. He suffered severe head injuries and extensive burns on his back. It took him half a year to recover before he could get out of bed.
The woman's plump and charming body trembled slightly, her cold eyes gradually melted, and she asked: "He said that if you treat it well, there will be no sequelae."
"The environment does not allow it." Chu He said with a smile. "It is lucky to be able to save a life."
"Take off your clothes." The woman almost gave a military order.
Chu He was stunned for a moment. He said awkwardly: "It's so cold. You'll catch a cold if you take it off."
The woman walked to the window in two steps and closed the curtains. She turned around and said in a deep voice: "Take it off."
Chu He stayed where he was, but didn't dare to take off his clothes.
He has grown up.
He is no longer the little brat who can be naked and let women take a bath. He is not even the coward who crawls into women's beds on thunderstorm nights. He doesn't dare to take off his clothes simply because he is shy.
"You can't hear well in your right ear. Can't you hear in your left ear too?" the woman asked in a very uneasy tone.
Chu He was stunned for a moment. He turned his back to the woman bitterly and took off his coat and shirt.
There is a large scar on the fourth vertebrae of the back. It is not like the scars under the corners of the male protagonists in the movie that are very beautiful. The scar is not beautiful, it is a bit abrupt on Chu He’s smooth back, and even makes people feel numb.
The woman slowly leaned over, her cold eyes melting.
He raised his slender jade fingers and carefully touched Chu He's warm back.
Chu He tensed up, not daring to move, let alone turn around.
He doesn't understand women's thoughts and doesn't dare to disturb her.
"Does it hurt?" the woman asked in an extremely complicated tone, no longer cold.
"It doesn't hurt." Chu He shook his head.
"How come it doesn't hurt?" the woman changed the topic. "One of my soldiers was hit by shrapnel while fighting riot. He was in terrible pain. His face was filled with tears and snot."
"It really doesn't hurt." Chu He shook his head stubbornly.
He doesn't want women to be sad. He doesn't want to make women sad.
Doesn’t hurt?
On the battlefield rescue table with such a harsh environment, even anesthetics were in short supply. After the operation, Chu He, who had saved his life, breathed his last. The sweat on the operating table was enough to wash one piece of clothing.
The woman gently approached Chu He, pressed her warm palm on the scar, and rubbed it gently: "When I was a child, I hit you on the palm of my hand naughtily, and you always cried and screamed. You refused to stop for a moment. Later, you learned to be patient when you grew up. Once you
I got into a fight with some gangsters and got beaten to a bloody head. I took you to the hospital and even joked with me leisurely. When I turned around, you were rolling on the bed and screaming. In fact, I was right outside the door. I was afraid.
You are too embarrassed to come in."
Chu He turned around suddenly, held the woman's soft palm tightly, his eyes were slightly red and said: "Sister, can we start over?"
