Three Nine Chapters
His sad back made a little ripple in my heart, and I froze in place, not knowing what I was waiting for, when suddenly, familiar notes flowed melodiously from the piano room, and the sound of agility echoed throughout the house.
I couldn't help but slowly cross to the door with the soothing melody, and looked at the young man who was painted according to the door frame sitting with his back to him, his soft shoulders rising and falling with the rhythm, thinking that it would be great if this scene could be permanently solidified.
At this moment, I can't help but feel sad in my heart, maybe it is the trick of fate that makes us meet again, or maybe this is not a reunion at all......
Until now, I have only learned to live reluctantly, and it is difficult for me to discern my true emotions.
He stopped his vigorous fingers, got up slowly, walked silently around the piano bench, his deep eyes fell on the tips of the hair on my shoulders, and he gradually approached me and made me unconsciously take two steps back.
"This piece is for you!"
He rubbed my crisp hair, bent down slightly, and whispered softly in my ear.
The change in his mood caught me by surprise, so I hid and leaned back, and said in confusion, "Send me?"
He pinned his hands behind his back, stood up straight, smiled warmly, seemed to have forgotten all about what had just happened, he touched the tips of my collarbone falling hair, and said in a daze, "Your new hairstyle is very beautiful, I like it!"
Overwhelmed, I took a step aside, forcing the slender white to keep the gesture of twisting his hair, and to remain unprepared in mid-air.
"That...... Thank you tonight, if you want any thank-you gifts, you can bring them up, as long as I can do it......"
I still remember his saving grace, and although I completely disproved his fallacy, I also understood that what he did was for me.
"Can you really mention it?" he confirmed, surprised.
I looked at it with sincerity and hummed in the affirmative.
"Are you free tomorrow night?" he asked, looking forward to it.
After thinking for a moment, I nodded to him hesitantly.
"Tomorrow, I want to take you to meet a special child"
Looking at his mysterious appearance, I coughed curiously, "Special child?"
"Well, you'll find out tomorrow!"
His clear and bright eyes looked at me movingly, as if carrying a thousand rays of light.
In the face of the mysterious gift he asked for, I didn't ask any questions, and briefly said "good night" to him
When I got home, I followed the doctor's instructions to take the medicine first, but after taking it for a while, a feeling of suffocation came up from the throat, anticipating that the situation was not good, I quickly ran into the bathroom and lay down on the toilet, even the medicine and blood all vomited out, the white ceramic was dyed bright red, and the bloody red liquid melted into the transparent sink, forming a pool of red ink.
I looked at the gorgeous red in amazement, and raised the corners of my mouth in despair......
After a long time, I stood up and walked to the dresser, slowly washing the blood stains on my chin, the transparent water was dissolved into a light color by the bright red and flowed into the sewer, the sound of the water was like a cry in the dark place of my heart, I looked up at myself in the mirror, and indifferently wiped off the pale red water droplets that were about to hit the ground at the corner of my jaw.
The sudden situation made me faintly uneasy, I took out the paper towel in the locker to absorb the remaining water stains on my chin, and then took out the mobile phone in my trouser pocket and dialed Zhao Lingyu for the third call of the day, "Xiaoqing, you ...... today"
"I just vomited blood!"
My cold, nasal voice intercepted the other person's intent joke.
"I'll be here tomorrow!" came the resolute six words on the other end of the phone.
"Don't come", I closed my eyes in weariness when I heard the magnetic low voice, and said firmly, "Don't come!"
"Xiaoqing~" He called my name with a trembling voice, and his tone made a very little humility.
I propped my elbows, frowned, and whispered, "I'm fine, I just want to ask if this situation is ...... explained."
I was prepared for the worst, never expected it to come so quickly and urgently, without leaving me the slightest time for it.
"Xiaoqing, I'll accompany you to do a detailed inspection tomorrow, after all, the equipment in the county is not perfect enough", he couldn't put it aside and made an objective suggestion.
"No, the patients in the hospital need you, don't leave your post for me!" I gently reminded me of the duties of a medical staff.
"Silly girl, you are my patient too! and my most important patient!" he said calmly.
I still insisted, "It's really fine, this symptom may be a side effect of the medicine!"
Between the words, the thumbnail plate unconsciously pressed against the countertop, breaking the nail groove, and the slightest pain stimulated the cranial nerves one after another, I bit my lip flap and stared indifferently at the bloody nail pieces hanging in the air.
"The symptom of vomiting blood should be ...... in the function of the lung tablets," he said unspeakable words with trembling heart, and calmed down for a few seconds before re-saying: "Xiaoqing, you still listen to me and do a detailed examination again in an authoritative hospital, okay?"
I coughed hoarsely for a while, and pleaded with no other way: "Please adjust the dosage of the medicine for me, the bigger the better!"
"Xiaoqing~" My name was called by him very sadly.
"Brother Ling Yu, please!"
I knew the importance of this title, and it was what he had always wanted to hear, and it was heavy enough to force him to agree.
The phone was silent for a long time before I heard him spit out a short "yes" word.
In the midst of the busy voice, I lowered my arm, thinking to myself that this was the first time I had heard him hang up the phone without hesitation.
I put the phone in my trouser pocket with a wry smile, reluctantly ripped off the bright red nail piece hanging from my thumb, wrapped it in a tissue and bent it into the palm of my hand, the annoying red spread quickly, and the tissue on my finger changed and changed, and it took a long time to barely stop.
I took the pills again, and after a long time, sleepiness swept over again.
After several days of wind and rain, the sun finally ushered in the bright sunshine, the alarm clock sounded, I was dizzy, squinted and got out of bed and walked to the window, I weakly opened the curtain that only covered half of the side, and suddenly, a touch of olive morning sun softly hit me instantly, so that the unusually pale cheeks were reflected slightly crimson.
......
The new day is still busy, and the completion rate of the new monthly indicator is not obvious, I gathered the sales and marketing departments to discuss a new round of activity plan, and finally finalized the use of next Monday's public welfare project to do a wave of exposure for the brand.
Time always passes very fast in the enrichment, I just finished signing all kinds of documents on the desk, I saw Deng Li knock on the door, she stacked the documents I signed in the crook of her arm, and said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, have you read the headlines?"
