After I returned to my apartment with Zhou Mo from the police station, I didn't think much about it because these things no longer affected me.
Just after returning to his residence, Zhou Mo was cooking in the kitchen again.
After facing the shrew Xiao Wei today, when I came back and saw Zhou Mo, a warmth suddenly rose in my heart.
This is probably the difference between people!
I really don’t know how I blindly fell in love with Xiao Wei in the first place. It really makes me sick.
After seeing me come back, Zhou Mo took the initiative to greet me: "I'm back. I made yam and millet porridge. This is good for the stomach. You should stop eating foods that irritate the stomach these days."
I was touched again by Zhou Mo's words. She really regarded me as a family member.
I don't know if I have any chance of surviving this disease. If I really don't have long to live, maybe I should stay with Zhou Mo during the last few days.
After all, I really owe her, and of course I also owe An Lan, but I really can't make up for An Lan.
I hope there will be another life, and I will definitely find An Lan and make up for the debt I owe her in this life.
Zhou Mo helped me serve the millet porridge and said to me carefully: "Be careful because it's hot! Don't be in a hurry to eat. Eat some carrots first. This is also food that nourishes the stomach."
I looked at Zhou Mo and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't need to do this. You can eat whatever you want without worrying about me."
Zhou Mo also smiled and said: "These are all things I like to eat! Including carrots, which I have loved eating since I was a child, and millet. My father used to say that when he was young, if he had a bowl of millet porridge like this, it would be the New Year."
"
"Then your father's family environment was not good when he was a child!"
"Well, my dad got his diploma from the countryside, so he comes from a poor family."
"Then your dad is really awesome."
When it came to Zhou Mo's father, she seemed to have endless things to say and said excitedly: "That's not true. I have always regarded my father as my goal in life. My father is the most outstanding person I have ever met.
."
I sighed softly and said, "If your dad were still here, I would really like to sit down and drink tea with him and have a chat."
Zhou Mo suddenly said with some sadness: "If my dad was still here, he would definitely like to get along with you, because your personalities are quite similar."
I have heard Zhou Mo say this more than once, including that An Lan came out if she wanted to marry me. Part of the reason was because I looked like her father.
After dinner, Zhou Mo and I went downstairs for a walk.
She is so considerate to me. I haven't had any pathological reaction yet, but she pays attention to me all the time.
She also carried some snacks such as hawthorn slices with her, saying that she had checked online that gastric cancer patients should not go hungry and should eat whenever they want to eat.
When we were tired from walking, we sat down in a pavilion in the community.
Spring is coming soon, and some green plants in the community have sprouted buds, and it is another season when the grass grows and the orioles fly.
But next year, can I still see such a scene?
When I think of these, I still feel a little sad.
I really don’t want to die, but God still sentenced me to death!
After a moment of silence, I said to Zhou Mo: "Zhou Mo, can I ask you a favor?"
"Please tell me what to do, and I will do it for you." She said as she stretched out her hand to help me arrange my clothes, as if she was afraid that I would catch the cold.
I looked at her and was in a daze for a while before saying, "I want you not to tell An Lan the news after I die, and keep it a secret for me, okay?"
"What are you saying about immortality? You won't die." She immediately rolled her eyes at me.
I continued to say seriously: "Let's not talk about whether we will die or not. If it happens, will you promise me?"
"There is no chance. You should be happy, so that the success rate of the operation will be higher."
After finishing speaking, she said earnestly: "Actually, most cancer patients do it because they have too little willpower. If they want to be more open-minded and happy, they will really be much better."
"I know, I'm already very relaxed and don't think too much about it. I just ask you to hide it from her then."
Zhou Mo sighed and said, "Although I don't know the meaning of what you do, don't worry, I will do it."
"Thanks."
"Don't say thank you, and nothing will happen to you."
As she said that, she took out a pendant woven with red rope from her bag. The pendant was Guanyin and looked very exquisite.
She said to me: "This is the Guanyin Bodhisattva pendant that I went to the White Horse Temple to ask for today. I asked for it especially for you. I will wear it for you."
I sneered and said: "You are still a cultured person, why have you become superstitious!"
"This is not superstition, this is a metaphor. I drew lots today and it was the top one," she said excitedly.
As he spoke, he arranged the red string and then put it on me.
I didn't want to let down her kindness, so I stretched my head towards her and asked her to put on the pendant of Guanyin Bodhisattva for me.
She said to me again: "Don't take it off, Guanyin Bodhisattva will definitely keep you safe and sound."
Seeing her seriousness, I suddenly laughed.
"I hate it, why are you laughing? Don't laugh, this is a very sacred thing." She rolled her eyes at me and said.
I stopped laughing and said, "Okay, I won't laugh anymore, thank you!"
"You said thank you again! Have you ever seen a couple say thank you?"
I shrugged and said no more.
Zhou Mo asked me again: "How are the company's affairs arranged?"
"We have just finished the Spring Festival and there are a lot of things to do. Give me a few more days. When An Lan comes back, I will transfer the company to her."
"When will she come back?"
"I don't know, I told her, it should be just for the next few days."
Zhou Mo thought for a moment and said, "I think An Lan is so smart, you can't fool her, she will definitely guess it."
"As long as we pretend to be more realistic, she won't guess."
Zhou Mo sighed heavily again, as if he was embarrassed.
Not to mention that she felt embarrassed, I felt embarrassed too, because I could even imagine how upset An Lan would be when she found out that I, Zhou Mo, was really doing the fake thing.
But I have to do this, only in this way can she forget about me.
In the next few days, I was dealing with some of the company's backlog of work during the Spring Festival. I also summarized all the group's situations and made detailed reports on the operations of each department.
I didn't tell anyone about these things, including the fact that I was sick. No one knew about it except Zhou Mo.
But that day, when Yang Man came to my office, she suddenly asked me: "Mr. Chen, what are you doing with these data these days?"
I didn't intend to hide it from her, and said directly: "I plan to let An Lan come back to take over my job, what do you think?"
"Ah? Why?" Yang Man asked doubtfully.
"You have been with An Lan for a while, don't you think she is more capable than me?"
Yang Man pondered for a moment and said, "I think you are all very capable. It's good that Mr. An is back, but what about you, Mr. Chen?"
"Of course I'll be there too!" I didn't tell her that I would leave, because it wasn't the time yet.
"That's good. After Mr. An comes back, the group will definitely develop better." Yang Man said happily.
