Chapter Seventy-Eight: I Miss You

In the evening, the police came with the news that the four half-hung kidnappers were arrested by the coast guard at sea, and when questioned by the police, Yao Zhixia finally relented, and she specially informed the police that the brothers also had a seriously ill mother at home, and the younger brother had wavered and wanted to let her go, hoping that the police could treat the young man lightly.

After the police left, the kidnapping storm was over.

"I—I'm going to buy dinner!"

When Ah Yuan saw Yao Zhixia today, he didn't dare to look at her directly, and his heart was all written on his face.

On the night of the car accident two years ago, on one side was Xue Rin who was lying in the emergency room, and on the other hand was Xue Huaiyuan, who fainted directly due to excessive grief, after ordering Lao Yu to guard Xue Huaiyuan in the inpatient department, Qi Hang took A-Yuan to the emergency room, who knew that he bumped into Yao Zhixia who was covering his head and crying in the corridor outside the door.

When the doctor announced that Xue Rin's kidneys were all severely ruptured, and he was afraid that he would not be able to return to the sky, even Qi Hang, who had always been strong, could not stand and was about to sit on the ground.

Under the bitter pleading of the three of them, the doctor could only give a recommendation for Xue Rin to perform a kidney transplant, which is simple, where can I find a kidney that is willing to donate and just matches Xue Rin in a short time?

Qi Hang was already weak, and the doctor rejected her transplant request as soon as possible, and both Ah Yuan and Yao Zhixia did examinations, but only Yao Zhixia's indicators showed that her kidneys were less likely to have a rejection reaction.

At Yao Zhixia's insistence, she was pushed into the operating room with the unconscious Xue Rin, and from that day on, one of her kidneys became a part of Xue Rin's body, extending his life.

Although the operation was very successful, Yao Zhixia experienced a series of sequelae after the operation, Qi Hang placed Yao Zhixia in the best ward in the hospital, taking care of her carefully day and night, while Xue Rin was taken care of by Ah Yuan.

But just when Yao Zhixia was almost recovering, she left a letter and quietly slipped away from the hospital while Qi Hang was going home to rest.

The only request in the letter was to hope that Qi Hang and Ah Yuan could keep it a secret and not tell Xue Rin about the transplant, she was afraid that he would be more painful, and she was afraid that he would never be able to let go of the past.

But what she didn't know was that the person she loved was Xue Rin, Xue Rin who had always been brainless, Xue Rin who didn't hit the south wall and didn't look back, and Xue Rin who went all the way to the dark.

"Do you know what your Sister Zhixia wants to eat?" Xue Rin lay leisurely on the bed, his arms pillowed behind his head.

A-Yuan was stunned and scratched his hair in embarrassment.

"I'm not a picky eater, I can do anything. Yao Zhixia immediately played a round.

"What did I say yesterday? We're going to have a big dinner tonight! It's a pity that now we can't eat meat, we can only eat some light dishes. ā€

"Then I'll order a few more dishes and make up for you!"

After Ah Yuan finished speaking, Qi Hang didn't say a word from beginning to end, she sat quietly on the chair next to Yao Zhixia's bed, and was engrossed in peeling apples with a fruit knife.

Yao Zhixia was very surprised by her knife work, the apple peel was almost dragged to the ground, and there was no break.

"Aunt Qi, you are so amazing!" Yao Zhixia couldn't help but admire.

Qi Hang smiled, "Always take care of Huaiyuan, and it can be regarded as practiced." ā€

"Is there a son of mine in my father's eyes? I'm bedridden here, he's free, and he's going to be chic abroad with those old friends, and he's not coming back. ā€

Dividing the apples in his hand into two, Qi Hang handed one of them to Yao Zhixia, "I'm afraid he's worried, he doesn't know about your kidnapping! Your father, this old scalper, has been busy all his life, and this is a rare vacation." ā€

Yao Zhixia took the apple and immediately handed it to Xue Rin.

"This apple should be divided equally between the two of you! after all, it's a comrade-in-arms in the trench who is unanimous to me, isn't it?" Xue Rin waved his hand and joked.

Yao Zhixia looked away weakly and looked at Qi Hang, but Qi Hang pursed his lips and smiled, "Ah Rin, it's no wonder that Ah Yuan and I are hiding this from you, if you want to find it, go to Zhixia to settle accounts, you have to keep an eye on her, don't let her run away again!"

Xue Rin raised his sword eyebrows lightly, "Miss Yao, I wonder if you can accompany me to the banquet with your face?"

"To the feast, to the feast?"

"Family feast. Xue Rin's eyes radiated a soft light.

Yao Zhixia was a little apprehensive, and turned his head to look at Qi Hang.

"Zhixia, you should have come to our house a long time ago, taking advantage of Rin's birthday in two days, our family will have a home-cooked meal at home, and your Uncle Xue has been kept in the dark until now!" Qi Hang encouraged.

"Birthday?"

Yao Zhixia was puzzled, Xue Rin's birthday was obviously in the middle of summer! She clearly remembered the special birthday party for two when they were on a desert island, where did another birthday come from in December in this winter?

Xue Rin coughed nervously twice as if he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes began to drift, "That's it! That, that, I'll go to the bathroom." ā€

----

At night, only Xue Rin and Yao Zhixia were left in the dim ward, lying quietly on their respective beds, relatively silent.

Xue Rin pricked up her ears to listen to the movement a meter away, but she didn't even hear the friction of the quilt, could it be that she fell asleep so calmly?

Xue Rin turned over in discouragement, allowing himself to face Yao Zhixia's hospital bed, but the room was too dark for him to see Yao Zhixia on the other side of the darkness at all.

"Haven't you slept yet?"

Yao Zhixia's soft voice suddenly sounded in the cool room.

"Hmm. Xue Rin's voice was a little hoarse.

"I ......"

"You ......"

"You speak first!"

"You speak first!"

Xue Rin paused and said, "I saw that bouquet of cornflowers. ā€

Yao Zhixia's heart tightened, "Will you be disgusted?"

"I wanted to take you to see her two years ago, and I knew she would like you very much, but I didn't expect that you would remember her sacrifice day. ā€

"She's the most important person to you, as it should be. ā€

After Yao Zhixia said this, there was no movement on the other side of the bed, and just when she was worried about whether she had said the wrong thing, the person on the bed suddenly lifted the quilt and got up and got off the ground.

"You ......"

Xue Rin didn't hesitate to lift the quilt covering Yao Zhixia's body and burrowed into the quilt like a slippery loach.

"Don't move. ā€

Yao Zhixia shyly moved to the side of the bed, but was fished back by Xue Rin, his arm wrapped around Yao Zhixia's shoulder, and his warm palm caressed her back.

Yao Zhixia couldn't see Xue Rin's expression at this time, her face was buried in his chest, and the fresh smell that only belonged to him mixed with the smell of disinfectant water from the hospital greeted her, making her unconsciously grasp her hospital gown.

Xue Rin pressed his chin against Yao Zhixia's hair, and closed his eyes with peace of mind, the person in his arms did not grow at all as he expected, and was still stiff like a dried sausage, but the warmth in front of him had already made him very satisfied.

"I miss you so much. ā€

The warm voice sounded above Yao Zhixia's head, her nose was sore, she closed her eyes, and gently pressed her forehead against Xue Rin's chest, and the hand that was originally holding the hospital gown was quietly released, slowly caressing Xue Rin's cheek.

There was a slight tingling in his fingertips, but Yao Zhixia was powerless to refuse this unstoppable sinking, and just wanted to nest in Xue Rin's arms for a long time.

"I promise you that I will never leave you again. Yao Zhixia choked and muttered.

----

As soon as he returned to City A, Xue Rin called a moving company to pack up all of Yao Zhixia's belongings, and pulled Xue Rin back to the old house where Xue Rin had been living alone for the past two years.

Before Xue Rin's door opened, Yao Zhixia heard the barking of dogs and cats one after another, as if protesting against the owner's failure to return for many days.

"Who takes care of them when you're away?" Yao Zhixia asked.

"Before, my brother Yue came to help me feed them, but recently he couldn't take care of my sister-in-law and baby, so I bothered Sister-in-law Liu to help me take care of them. ā€

As soon as Xue Rin opened a crack in the door, a few fluffy clumps squeezed out of it, and as soon as the leader of the puff jumped out and went straight to Yao Zhixia, obviously, when it heard Yao Zhixia's voice, it had already recognized the owner who had not been home for two years.

Pengpeng was stronger and fatter than before, and it stood up excitedly, grabbed its two big paws on Yao Zhixia's body, and kept barking, as if complaining about Yao Zhixia's long time of not returning home.

"I'm a father and a mother, and I haven't said that I've been wronged!

Yao Zhixia hugged Peng Peng tightly, "Peng Peng, I miss you so much, are you doing well?"

"Why don't you tell me that?"

Xue Rin said that, he scooped up the little Simba who was wagging his tail and was running around and held it up in front of Yao Zhixia.

Simba squinted, his little paws kicking in the air, his tail flicking around like a little whip.

Yao Zhixia stared at Simba for a long time, then looked down at Pengpeng, and a kind of fanatical joy welled up in his heart, "This is Pengpeng's?"

Xue Rin nodded proudly, "Its son!"

"Oh my God! Puffy!You're all a dad!" Yao Zhixia happily rubbed Puffy's head back and forth, feeling proud of Puffy's growth like her own mother.

Ding Man, who had a low sense of existence, was a little dissatisfied, and it jumped directly onto Yao Zhixia's shoulder.

"Ding Man, you roof thief, you are getting more and more agile!" Yao Zhixia tilted his head to touch Ding Man's forehead, and Ding Man's snoring sound came from his ears.

Xue Rin looked at the scene in front of him, and his heart softened, once upon a time, home was just a dream for him that had long passed, but now, home was close in front of him, and he could reach it with his hand.

In the evening, the two drove to the supermarket to buy a lot of shopping, and finally returned home with several large bags of daily necessities and fruits and vegetables.

"You rest, I'll make dinner!"

Yao Zhixia was pressed into the sofa by Xue Rin, she simply crossed her legs, and watched Xue Rin run around with great interest.

"Obediently wait for me to fight you!"

Xue Rin wiped a handful on Yao Zhixia's face and hurried to the kitchen, Yao Zhixia turned his head curiously, only to see him holding a knife in his hand for a while and looking for ingredients in a panic, then putting down the knife to wash vegetables, and then turning around to find a knife.

Yao Zhixia couldn't help but laugh and shouted, "Xue Rin, I want to eat the strawberries I just bought!"

Xue Rin, who was looking for the knife everywhere, immediately stood in place, "Okay, good!

After Xue Rin finished speaking, he immediately looked for strawberries in those shopping bags, and Yao Zhixia couldn't bear to tease him anymore when he saw his anxious appearance.

"I'd better do it!"

Xue Rin's hand was suddenly held down by Yao Zhixia, and he looked at the cooking table, which was already in a mess before he started using it, and finally lost the battle.

"Okay! If this meal is given to me, I guess we will not be able to eat it until the second half of the night, but I can help you!"

Xue Rin quickly took out a big potato from the bag and held it up like a child who wanted to show himself in front of his parents, "I will peel it!"

Yao Zhixia nodded dotingly, Xue Rin raised his thick eyebrows and turned to get the peeler, but when he turned around, Yao Zhixia's kiss was suddenly imprinted on his face.

Xue Rin's hand couldn't help shaking, and the big potato immediately rolled to the ground, Yao Zhixia leaned over to pick it up, but was taken into Xue Rin's arms.

"Xue Rin?"

The hand around Yao Zhixia's waist became tighter.

"Hug it first. ā€

Yao Zhixia was a little helpless in her heart, I was afraid that dinner was really going to become a supper.

----

After eating, the two of them took Pomp and Simba for a walk in a nearby park, sharing the joys and sorrows of the past two years with relish, and both eager to make up for their absence.

"Xue Rin, does your father have anything he particularly likes?" Yao Zhixia asked curiously.

Xue Rin breathed a sigh of relief, frowned, and said, "He likes to collect antiques and red wine. ā€

"Oh. Yao Zhixia replied in embarrassment.

As if seeing through Yao Zhixia's thoughts, Xue Rin showed a wicked smile on his face, "What's the matter?

"I'm not! It's just that as a junior, there must be some etiquette when going to meet the elders, right? I am afraid that I can't even afford a bottle of collectible red wine, which is a bit nerve-wracking. ā€

Xue Rin disagreed, "You, don't worry about anything, don't bring anything, you are the biggest gift to him, in the past few years, he has been talking to Aunt Qi about why I still don't fall in love, how I have never been interested in girls, and always hinted to me mysteriously, he is not the kind of person who is not enlightened, I think he treats me as gay, so you don't have to be afraid, he will definitely like you." ā€

Yao Zhixia nodded, still a little apprehensive in her heart.
