071 Still friends
The three of them got out of the elevator, and Qiu Yan pushed Caiyue to the back garden of the hospital.
Last summer, when Cai Yue was hospitalized due to injuries sustained in a car accident, the three of them also walked together in a wheelchair, one pushing a wheelchair, and the other staying aside. Who would have thought that this scene would be staged again. It's really like a play and a dream.
On summer nights, there is still a little heat in the air, except for the occasional cool breeze, which makes people feel a little refreshed.
All three just walked silently and did not speak. There was only the occasional chirping of insects and the scent of flowers, which blew into my nose from time to time with the evening breeze. The moonlight and the not-so-bright street lamps in the garden stretched the shadows of the three of them sometimes and sometimes shortened.
Such a summer night is quiet and beautiful, if the three of them are still the same as when she was first injured.
In front of her was a clump of gardenias in full bloom, and Caiyue couldn't help but try to raise her hand to touch the flower.
"Do you want to stop for a while?" Qiu Yan immediately bent down and asked.
"Okay!" Cai Yue replied softly.
She looked at the gardenia in front of her, sniffed the refreshing aroma, and suddenly fell into the memory.
"When I was a child, I was often sick and had to take medicine and injections at every turn. My mother felt sorry for me, so she went to ask a friend who knew Chinese medicine. The friend prescribed a prescription for conditioning, one of which was to pick gardenias and soak them in water to drink. Mom's own health is not good, and gardenia tea is also suitable for her. Gardenias can also be used in medicine.
Therefore, every year when the gardenias bloom, my mother would go everywhere to find a place with gardenias to pick flowers, and many times she was scolded. Later, my body got better after conditioning, but my mother's health became worse and worse. ”
Recalling those difficult and happy days when she was dependent on her mother, Caiyue's nose was a little sore, and the gardenia in front of her became slightly blurred because of tears.
Hearing Caiyue mention Xiao Ling, Xiao Tian also lowered his head sadly. He put his hand lightly on Caiyue's shoulder, tightening it, but he didn't know how to comfort her. Because of Xiao Ling's death, he could not escape the blame.
Xiao Ling was admitted to the hospital because he knew about his relationship with Caiyue, and he was excited for a while, and his condition deteriorated. Later, because Ades wanted to take revenge on him, he killed Xiao Ling to drive a wedge between him and Caiyue. Therefore, it can be said that I did not kill Beren, but Beren died because of me.
Hearing Caiyue mention the past, Qiu Yan felt uncomfortable.
He also gently put his hand on Caiyue's shoulder on the other side, and said softly: "Auntie did suffer a lot in her life, but you have done your best to make her happy and proud because of you." And, at least now, she doesn't have to endure the pain of illness anymore. ”
Cai Yue nodded slightly. People cannot be resurrected after death, and the living can only find more reasons to comfort themselves.
After walking, the three of them returned to the ward.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening, and neither of the two men wanted to leave first, so they simply said goodbye together and left the ward.
The two walked out of the door of the inpatient department together and walked towards the parking lot together. When he arrived at the parking lot, he passed by Xiao Tian's car first, Xiao Tian pressed the car key, and the car gently screamed and unlocked it, but he didn't immediately turn into the parking space.
The two of them said "Let's talk" almost at the same time, and then, almost at the same time, they turned their heads to look away and smiled.
Xiao Tian took out a box of cigarettes from his body, "Do you want it?"
Qiu Yan nodded.
Xiao Tian held the cigarette case in front of Qiu Yan, and Qiu Yan took one and put it between his lips. After Xiao Tian lit it for him, he took a cigarette himself, and then lit it as well. The two sat side by side together, leaning slightly on Xiao Tian's body.
"As far as I know, you never carry a cigarette with you. Qiu Yan opened his mouth first.
Xiao Tian smiled, "Occasionally, I also want to be willful." ”
Qiu Yan took a sharp puff of cigarette and spit it out quickly, "That's why you're banning the moon trap?"
Xiao Tian was holding a puff of cigarette in his mouth, and when he heard Qiu Yan's question, he slowly exhaled the cigarette gently, and slightly tightened the corners of his mouth.
"This matter is my rare willfulness, and it is also my rare seriousness. ”
Qiu Yan frowned, and a heartache slowly spread in the bottom of his heart.
Although even Caiyue herself has always been suspicious, Qiu Yan has always believed that Xiao Tian's love for Caiyue is true. Therefore, for three whole years, although his heart was painful, he basically adopted a concessional attitude, and he really wanted to fulfill and bless them.
It's just that the pain brought by this relationship to Caiyue is too intense. And himself, his love for Caiyue not only did not get weaker and weaker, but became stronger and stronger. Especially when he felt more and more, Cai Yue's heart for him was becoming more and more obvious, and he couldn't help but want to snatch her from Xiao Tian.
It's just that this kind of emotional competition is the most hurtful, and he really doesn't want to hurt Xiao Tian.
Qiu Yan took another puff of his cigarette, this time slowly.
"What would happen to you if Caiyue chose me two months later?"
It's such a heavy topic! But it's also a topic that can't be avoided! Moreover, isn't this the topic that the two of them want to talk about?
Xiao Tian frowned, and also took a sharp breath, and slowly spit it out.
"But if two months later, Caiyue chooses to stay by my side, what will happen to you?" Xiao Tian did not answer, but asked rhetorically.
The typical thinking of a strong man – never think he's going to lose, at least when facing an opponent, and doesn't easily admit that he might lose.
Qiu Yan chuckled, then shook his head.
Xiao Tian also laughed and shook his head.
The two of them looked up together. Looking up at the bright moon, he just didn't miss his hometown.
Both were silent, the cigarette between their fingers slowly getting shorter.
Finally, Qiu Yan spoke softly, breaking the stalemate silence.
"I take back what I said to you yesterday, no matter what happens in two months, you're still my friend!"
Xiao Tian stretched out his arm, hugged Qiu Yan's shoulders tightly, and slammed it towards his body.
"What you really want to say is 'bad friends', right?" Xiao Tian slanted a cigarette at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were slightly at Qiu Yan, he really didn't look like a serious friend.
When Qiu Yan said the words "You are still my friend", Xiao Tian's heart was really moved and excited. In this battle of feelings, if the price of winning Caiyue is the loss of Qiu Yan, then he will feel that this war is won and lost.
Qiu Yan also had a cigarette between his lips and squinted at Xiao Tian: "You finally have a little self-awareness." ”
Although Qiu Yan took the initiative to start this war, in his heart, he was really the same as Xiao Tian, if it wasn't for the fact that he had to fight, he didn't want to really fight.
The two big men puffed on each other's cigarettes and laughed together.
"If you were a woman, I guess I'd have a headache now!" Xiao Tian looked at Qiu Yan almost affectionately and said with a smile.
Qiu Yan also stretched out his arm and hugged Xiao Tian's shoulder, "Aren't you having enough headaches now?"
"Headache, it's indeed a headache!" Xiao Tian thought of Chu Mingzhu again, and he couldn't help but look at Qiu Yan: "I said Qiu Yan, there are many more women who revolve around you every day than me, how can you handle women's affairs cleanly? What's the secret, tell me quickly?"
Qiu Yan sneered, "How do you know that I handled it cleanly?" After speaking, he took another puff of his cigarette.
Although he is already very grateful to women, there are many indomitable people in this world. Especially for Qiu Yan, a super diamond-level king like Qiu Yan, who has a direct charm value, it is really impossible to completely purge the women around him. Because, send away a pair, and soon another pair will be around.
Xiao Tian blinked and tilted his head to look at Qiu Yan.
Seeing this, Qiu Yan also tilted his head to look at Xiao Tian, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Tian hurriedly shook his head: "I don't want to know." Anyway, it's just more than me, not less than me. ”
"Then you still ask me what is the secret, looking for a fight, right?" said "looking for a fight", Qiu Yan really knocked Xiao Tian on the back of the head coldly.
Xiao Tian didn't expect Qiu Yan to say that he would really fight.
He touched the back of his head in distress: "If you hit lightly, hit here, people will become stupid." ”
"It's good to be stupid. You're just too smart! You can do this kind of thing. Qiu Yan gritted his teeth and finished speaking, and he actually had another heavy brain crash at Xiao Tian.
Although he agreed to Caiyue's request, although he also said to Xiao Tian that he was "still a friend", Qiu Yan was still angry about Xiao Tian's ban on Caiyue. Without hitting him twice, he really couldn't swallow this breath.
Xiao Tian looked anxious: "Deliberately, you must have done it on purpose! If you want to beat me stupid first, you can snatch Caiyue, aren't you?"
Qiu Yan had a completely fearless look, "I want to say yes, are you still thinking about fighting back?"
"You're right!" As he spoke, Xiao Tian was about to knock Qiu Yan on the back of the head.
Qiu Yan had already made preparations, his body tensed, and he dodged away. Xiao Tian strode forward, and was about to continue shooting, but Qiu Yan flashed again. The two of them were just like that, like children, fighting in the parking lot.
In the days that followed, the three of them still met at the hospital bedside from time to time, but apparently the atmosphere was no longer as cold and awkward as when they first met tonight. This made Caiyue's heart feel a lot easier, and she thought that the decision she had made before was right.
A week later, the snake venom on Caiyue's body was cleaned up, and the wounds on the soles of her feet had also scabbed, and some of them had fallen off. So, she was able to be discharged.
Originally, Caiyue could have been discharged from the hospital two days earlier. It's just that Qiu Yan didn't want her to move into Xiao Tian's villa so early, so he insisted on letting her stay in the courtyard for two more days. Cai Yue herself was really afraid of living in Xiao Tian's villa, so she didn't object. In the case of two to one, Xiao Tian had no choice but to back down.
