As soon as I finished speaking, Zhou Mo came to my hospital bed from the nursing bed, then took my arm and looked around cautiously.
Seeing her taking it so seriously made me feel a little scared.
After all, I saw that scene with my own eyes.
I don't know if that's an injustice.
Suddenly, Zhou Mo whispered to me: "Why don't we both stay in the hospital tonight? Let's go and get a room in a hotel outside! It's so scary here, don't you feel eerie?"
I smiled and said, "I'm not afraid. If you're afraid, just go by yourself."
Zhou Mo thought for a moment, then held my arm tightly and said resolutely: "No, if you don't go, I won't go either. Two people are better than one."
"Then can you sleep?"
"I'll sleep next to you."
I smiled bitterly and said, "As for that? How much harm have you done? There are so many people here, why would he bother you?"
"Because I am a soft persimmon and the easiest to be pinched by others!"
I couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Are you the only one who's still a soft persimmon?"
She hummed twice and said: "I am not only a soft persimmon, but also a soft girl. Do you want to pinch me?"
Looking at her teasing look, I don't know if she is really scared or fake.
It was at this time that the nurse on duty came to my ward and reminded us that it was time to turn off the lights and take a rest.
Zhou Mo seemed to be afraid that I would drive her away. As soon as the nurse left, she got up and turned off the light, and then returned to my bedside.
"Move to the side." She said, standing in front of my hospital bed.
"what?"
"I'll squeeze in with you tonight."
"this"
"Stop doing this and that." As she said this, she forced herself onto my hospital bed, and then lay down next to me calmly.
I felt helpless. If I had known better, I wouldn't have scared her.
Fortunately, this is an independent ward. Even if the hospital bed is only 1.5 meters wide, there is no problem if there is someone sleeping next to me.
It's just that this is the first time since I got married to her that we slept together while we were awake.
But although the hospital bed was wide enough, no matter how we avoided it, there would still be physical contact with her.
This kind of contact would make me uncomfortable.
After struggling for a long time, I finally said to her: "Don't rub against me like this, I feel uncomfortable."
"What's wrong? Do you want me to call the nurse?"
I felt speechless and said: "The discomfort I am talking about is not that I am physically uncomfortable, but that I am a normal man. Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhou Moxiao: "What's the matter? Who could have caught up with such a thing? It's a good thing you didn't scare me just now."
I stopped talking and tried to stay as far away from her as possible.
Zhou Mo seemed to sense that I was deliberately avoiding her, so he said to me: "It seems inappropriate for us to sleep together like this. I'd better go back to my own bed."
With that said, she prepared to get up from the hospital bed.
But at this moment, a dark wind suddenly blew through the window, and a faint cry was heard, which was very sad!
After hearing this voice, Zhou Mo got excited and got into the bed again, covering his entire head.
She said to me with a trembling voice under the quilt: "Brother, we are both good people, right? He shouldn't ask for our lives, right?"
I couldn't laugh or cry even more, and said to her: "Stop talking nonsense. What I just told you is all superstition. Fortunately, you are still a senior intellectual who graduated from a prestigious university."
"So what? Haven't you heard that the end of science is metaphysics?"
I laughed even louder: "How come I didn't realize you were so funny before?"
"That's because you didn't understand me carefully. I've always been like this, okay?"
The crying became clearer and clearer, and I was sure it was not an auditory hallucination, but it was a woman crying.
Then I heard the security guard's voice asking about the crying woman downstairs. I didn't hear what the woman said, and the crying disappeared after a while.
After Zhou Mo learned about it, she was no longer so scared. In order to keep a distance from me, she returned to her own bed.
It's just that she moved the escort bed closer to me, and then curled up and lay on it.
I quite like this distance. It's not too close, and it's not too far either.
But there was enough space for me to calmly think about my relationship with Zhou Mo during this period.
Maybe she is right, it is more appropriate for us to call each other brother and sister.
After thinking about it, I became tired, and then fell asleep to the sound of the wind blowing through the window.
I had a dream. I dreamed that the old man who jumped off the building yesterday came back to life. He came to me with a knife and demanded my life.
In the dream, he stood in front of me covered in blood. He asked me why I didn't take money to save him.
I was so scared that I could only keep running, but no matter how I ran, he followed me closely.
I couldn't stop. Slowly, everything became nothing and I began to become nothing.
This dream ended in my panic.
After I woke up, I sat on the bed for a long time
I looked at the bed next to me and saw that Zhou Mo was sleeping peacefully.
But the blanket on her body had slipped off. I got out of bed and covered her with the blanket, only to find that it was raining outside the window.
I didn't go back to bed immediately, I just stood outside the window and watched.
Looking downstairs, the place where the old man fell yesterday has been cleaned up, as if nothing happened.
In a daze, I remembered the dream last night again.
Are you implying something to me?
Maybe my heart is too weak. This kind of thing actually has nothing to do with me, and his death has nothing to do with me.
But after we met him, I still wanted to wait until I was discharged from the hospital to offer him some incense.
Listening to the sound of rain, my heart gradually calmed down.
My eyes stayed on the two street lamps at the intersection outside the hospital. I felt they were very similar to me and Zhou Mo.
They are always in a position where they can see each other and accompany each other, but they can never really touch each other.
The only thing that can intersect is the light they emit, like whispers or inner communication.
Maybe, they are happy.
The cell phone rang at this moment, it was An Lan calling.
In order not to wake up Zhou Mo, I walked outside and connected the phone.
"Hey, why did you call me so early today?" After the call was answered, I asked her.
"Of course it's good news, I wanted to share it with you as soon as possible."
Although she hadn’t said any good news yet, I already laughed and asked her, “What good news?”
"The stock market opened yesterday. The real-time data received this morning is very good. I will send you the specific values when I get to the company later."
"Well, okay." After a pause, I said to An Lan, "There is something I want to discuss with you."
"you say."
"I want that money to be used for serious medical treatment. What do you think?"
An Lan asked in confusion: "Why do you suddenly want to buy insurance?"
