When Zhang Zi'an heard this, he could roughly guess what would follow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Guo Dongyue is a highly educated person, and the professional quality of the designer requires him to be meticulous. He comforted his mother that night, but after hanging up, he never fell asleep again. The next day, he flew back to China and went directly to his mother's house to take her to the hospital for a check-up. Guo's mother resisted very much, saying that she was in good health and should not waste the money, but in the end, Guo Dongyue almost coaxed her to the hospital.

After running several hospitals to no avail, he was finally diagnosed with Alzheimer's syndrome in an authoritative hospital.

Guo Dongyue blamed himself for not noticing earlier? He looked up some knowledge about the disease on the Internet, and although the cause is unknown, there is evidence that widowed, withdrawn, and depressed elderly people tend to have a higher incidence rate.

His father died young, and his mother brought him up almost entirely single-handedly. He slowly grew up, went to college away from home, and then went abroad to study, and after work, in order to be closer to the company, he rented a house near the company to live by himself, and often traveled on business, except for the New Year's holidays, often only once a month to return home.

In the process of fighting for work and career, he didn't take into account his mother's feelings of being alone, and even felt impatient when he received a call from his mother to report his safety, and he would hang up after saying a few words. His mother is retired, and because she has always been demure, she doesn't like to hang out with relatives, she doesn't have any special hobbies, and she can't get along with the aunts who dance square dances all day long......

Every time his mother called to report safety on a business trip, he always dealt with it casually, but never asked how his mother was doing...... Of course, if it was just a headache and brain fever, even if he asked, his mother would definitely hide it.

Guo's mother didn't know what kind of disease she had, but thought that Guo Dongyue was worrying and spending money blindly - patients with Abenzheimer's disease were no different from normal people most of the time in the early stages of the disease, not to mention that Guo's mother herself did not feel abnormal, even in the eyes of others, it was normal, and it was difficult to diagnose even in the hospital.

Guo Dongyue hired a full-time nanny for his mother, because it was easy to get lost outside and couldn't find her home when she got sick. Guo's mother was used to living alone, and a stranger suddenly came to the house, which was very uncomfortable. She thinks it's a waste of money, her son is older, it's time to think about saving money for marriage, although Guo Dongyue earns a lot, but no one thinks that there is a lot of money. Despite this, she still couldn't get rid of her son, so she had to agree to come down and let the nanny take care of her.

The nanny was hired by Guo Dongyue at a high price, not to mention her professional quality and ability, and she got along with Guo's mother quite well. However, as Guo's mother's condition deteriorated, her temper became more and more eccentric and withdrawn, and when she became sick, she would suspect that the nanny was a thief who quietly entered the house, and she called the police because of this. Sometimes the nanny went out to buy groceries, and in order to prevent her from leaving the house and getting lost, she would lock her in the house, and she suspected that a bad guy had kidnapped her and called the police again...... The police were also tired of coming and going, and the nanny also resigned several times.

Many people persuaded Guo Dongyue to send her to an elderly apartment, but it was not a problem to go on like this, and he did not agree to it anyway, and did not want to send his mother to a place full of strangers, because his mother was exactly the same as a normal person when she was not sick, and he did not want to associate her with the word "patient". Sometimes when he came home, he saw his mother sitting in a rocking chair in the living room with glasses and reading the newspaper, and he felt that more than ten years had passed in a flash.

Until one time, his mother raised her eyes from the newspaper and smiled gently at him, and he responded with a smile, feeling that she had a ruddy complexion, a very good complexion, and a shining light in her eyes, as if she were several years younger. His heart was suddenly filled with hope, maybe a miracle had happened, and the medicine had alleviated the condition?

She smiled and asked curiously, "I see that you are a little familiar, may I ask who you are looking for?" The child's father has not come back yet, why don't you wait?"

Guo Dongyue had forgotten what had happened after that, and when he came back to his senses, he was woken up by a young man in a bartender costume who told him that the bar was closing.

Guo's mother's condition gradually worsened, and she spent less and less time awake, often forgetting what to do after standing up, standing in a daze, and even forgetting to sit down. Her memory was like a broken pearl necklace, the rope was inexplicably missing, and the remaining pearls were lost one by one.

She still remembers Guo Dongyue and can occasionally recognize him, but most of the time she only remembers him when he was in high school, which is her pride. She would anxiously ask for food at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., saying that the child was about to get out of school, and that she couldn't go hungry no matter what.

Guo Dongyue would try to explain to her at first, saying that I am Dongyue, your son, I have grown up. At first, after tireless efforts, she could still remember, smile at him, and ask how the work was, was it hard?, and as time went on, the explanation became pale and weak, and the expression on her face became more and more indifferent, revealing obvious impatience, and even on one occasion she pushed him away, stood up and screamed not to pretend to be my son......

She stood like this for two minutes, the anger on her face disappeared, she returned to her calm, and smiled at Guo Dongyue, who was pushed aside: "You sit for a while, the weather is cold, I'll go and find out my son's clothes for Qiu Dong......"

From that day on, Guo Dongyue knew that he had disappeared forever in her memory after college. She wasn't to blame, because since he went to college, the connection with her had become weaker. This is retribution, and this must be retribution.

He knew very well that this was just the beginning, and that in the future, she would irrevocably forget him in high school, junior high school, and elementary school, just like an old photo that was fading.

When she forgets everything, the flame of life will be extinguished.

Before you know it, there is silence in the store. Lao Cha turned off the TV, Fina stopped napping, and Xinghai squatted to the side, letting the kittens frolick. Even Richard, who had been noisy all day, didn't interject again, only occasionally scratching the feathers on his chest. Everyone was listening to Guo Dongyue's story, but the snow lion was still staring at Fina's tail obsessively, ignoring the things around him.

Guo Dongyue's tone was very calm, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him, but Zhang Zi'an could feel the pain hidden under this calm.
