Chapter 111: I won't leave Mr. Cheng behind

The lights in the ward were blazing, and Zhou He couldn't help but close his eyes slightly.

Li Peiyuan quickly finished the call, saw that her lips were slightly dry, poured a glass of water for her, and gently touched her head like a child, and asked, "Is there anything uncomfortable?"

I don't know if it's because I'm sick and extra fragile or what, Zhou He inexplicably gave birth to some sentimentality. Shaking his head with a smile, he said, "No." She paused a little and said, "It's just that the lights are a little dazzling, can my uncle turn off the lights here." ”

The light was so bright that she was dizzy.

Li Peiyuan responded, turned off all the lights, and only left the bedside light.

Later in the evening, dessert was delivered, but Zhou He only ate a small bit. I don't know how to be a little disgusting. She forced herself to go to the bathroom after a while, but she couldn't vomit anything.

Lying on the bed at night, Li Peiyuan didn't know where to take out a book, sat down on the chair at the head of the bed, and said, "If you feel tired, close your eyes, and I'll read it to you." ”

Zhou He couldn't help but feel a little trance, as if he had returned to his childhood. When she was a child, she was sick and lying in bed, and Li Ying would occasionally sit at the head of the bed and read to her with an interesting storybook. It was a tender moment in her memory.

She reluctantly squeezed out a smile and nodded in response.

Li Peiyuan tucked the corners of her back for her, and then read it. He reads it lightly and funny, and his voice is subdued and abrupt, which is very meaningful. Zhou He couldn't help laughing out loud as he listened,

After reading for half an hour, Li Peiyuan's throat was dry, so he stopped and poured water to moisten his throat. He was originally going to continue reading, but Zhou He stopped him and said, "Little uncle, don't read it." Take a break and talk to me. ”

Li Peiyuan's movements paused, put the book aside, and said hello.

Zhou Yiyi couldn't find a topic all the time, but Li Peiyuan said some small things in detail. Zhou He's sleepiness gradually hit him in his soft words.

When she was about to fall asleep, Li Peiyuan suddenly asked softly, "Do you want to see your mother?"

Zhou He's mind cleared up a little, he was stunned, and said in a daze: "No." I will be discharged from the hospital in a few days. ”

Drowsiness hit, and she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Soon there was a shallow, even breathing sound.

Li Peiyuan looked at her pale face in the dim light, put her hand in the quilt, gently walked out of the ward, took out a cigarette outside, and smoked.

Zhou He's sleep still didn't get a good night, and for some reason, his head suddenly hurt in the middle of the night. She was dazed at first, but the pain grew worse and worse, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

The headache was the same as before, and her first instinct was to find painkillers. As soon as I got up, I realized that it was in the hospital, not at home.

She was afraid of waking Li Peiyuan, and just as she was about to lie back on the bed, Li Peiyuan had already heard the movement here, turned on the bedside light, and asked, "What's wrong?"

In just a moment, cold sweat was already dripping on her forehead. Zhou He wanted to say that it was okay, but the headache was too bad, and he said intermittently: "The headache is committed, can my little uncle trouble you to find a doctor to prescribe some painkillers, just take two painkillers." It's only once in a while. ”

Her pale face was already twisted with pain, and she clutched her head tightly in her hands, trying to relieve some of the pain.

Li Peiyuan's eyes were heavy, and he immediately went to call a doctor. It didn't take long for me to bring painkillers.

Zhou Heqiang took it, waiting for the pain to be relieved, and the tense body gradually relaxed. In such a moment, the clothes on her body were already wet with sweat, and she was tired and haggard.

Li Peiyuan originally wanted to ask the nurse to come in and fetch water to wipe Zhou He's body, but she refused, saying that she could do it. I went to the small bathroom and took a simple shower and changed my clothes.

When he dried his hair and lay on the bed, Li Peiyuan asked in a deep voice as if casually, "When did your head start to hurt?"

The pain just now made Zhou He tired, she reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "I had a headache before." She didn't plan to elaborate, but when she saw Li Peiyuan looking at her, she said, "I was frozen when I came here that time, and then I would have a headache from time to time, only occasionally." Just take two painkillers. ”

Her voice was weak and her tone was understated. I don't want Li Peiyuan to worry.

The year she left Kyoto, the snow had been falling heavily. Li Peiyuan still remembers it clearly. He fell silent, but didn't say anything, gently touched her head, and said, "Sleep." ”

Zhou He nodded and said, "Little uncle, you should also rest." ”

Her eyes closed and she quickly fell asleep.

I used to have insomnia, but now I have abnormal sleepiness. It's like making up for everything you didn't sleep well before.

In the past, it took a long time for a headache to occur once, but this time I don't know what happened. She would have a headache from time to time, and sometimes it would not work after taking medicine for half a day, and finally the doctor came and gave injections to relieve the pain.

Her cough slowly got better, and she thought she would be discharged soon. But no, the doctor still went in and out every day, occasionally calling Li Peiyuan and Xu Yuanning to the office.

Zhou He slowly realized that something was wrong, and that morning when the doctor left after checking the room, she suddenly looked up at Xu Yuanning and asked, "Senior brother, am I not just cold?"

Li Peiyuan is here these days, if it's just a simple cold, how can he be here all the time?

Xu Yuanning's body stiffened slightly, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Don't think nonsense, take a good rest." ”

He refused to answer the question head-on, avoiding her gaze.

Zhou He wanted to ask again, but finally fell silent. The topic was not brought up again.

Xu Yuanning probably talked to Li Peiyuan, and Li Peiyuan came over in the evening, and said to Zhou He in the same tone as coaxing a child: "Ahe, there is something that my uncle wants to tell you." ”

Zhou He was drinking water at that time, and when he heard this, he put down the water glass, looked at him, and said, "Little uncle, you say." ”

Li Peiyuan groaned a little and said, "Last time, the doctor found that you had a tumor in your brain, which had compressed the nerves. Your headache is probably related to the tumor, and the doctor recommends surgery as soon as possible. ”

The matter of the illness was concealed for the time being, but the matter of the operation could not be concealed. The reason why I haven't told her all this time is because it hasn't been arranged yet.

She has been having a headache all this time, and she has been refusing to be discharged from the hospital, so she actually has some guesses in her heart.

Li Peiyuan didn't wait for her to speak, and said: "Don't worry, the hospital has invited experts to come for a consultation, and the operation will be carried out as soon as possible after the consultation." ”

Zhou He was calm, smiled slightly, nodded and responded obediently: "Okay." ”

Her calmness made Li Peiyuan silent, he patted her shoulder lightly, and said, "The expert is invited from Kyoto, don't worry about anything." ”

Zhou He still smiled slightly and said, "Okay." She picked up the water and continued to drink.

This night, Zhou Ji did not fall asleep as before, and lay in bed without a little sleepiness. Afraid that Li Peiyuan would be worried, she stiffened her body and lay motionless. It wasn't until he went out that her tense body relaxed slightly.

She opened her eyes and looked up at the snow-white ceiling of the hospital in the dim light. The mind is empty. It was a long time before she closed her eyes. Sleepiness gradually hit, and she still fell asleep.

It was raining outside all this time, and the air smelled of dampness. The experts invited by Li Peiyuan are all well-known in the industry, and they only had a consultation at the hospital at the end of July.

Zhou He checked again.

I don't know if there was an adverse reaction to the drug used during the examination or what, but after the examination, she was nauseous and vomited several times.

I don't know if her surgery was difficult or how, and the first day of consultation was inconclusive. The expert was invited by Li Peiyuan, and he went out to socialize in the evening, while Xu Yuanning stayed in the ward to accompany Zhou He.

Zhou He couldn't eat anymore, so he went to buy white porridge, and she ate a bite or two from time to time. After eating a small half bowl of white porridge, Zhou He couldn't eat it anymore.

It's a good thing that she didn't spit it out again, Xu Yuanning didn't let her again, and poured her a cup of warm boiled water.

Zhou He slowly sipped the water, and he didn't know how to start, looked up at Xu Yuanning, and asked, "Senior Brother Xu, can I go home and live for a few days?"

Although she had a forced smile on her face, she was not in any spirit. Xu Yuanning's heart was heavy, she would get bored if she stayed in the hospital for a long time, and she had been living for more than ten days in a flash.

But he couldn't do anything about it, so he squeezed out a smile and said, "I'll ask the doctor, and if the doctor says it's okay, we'll go back and stay for a few days." ”

Zhou He smiled slightly and said hello now, and stopped talking.

She doesn't need someone to accompany her all the time, and she doesn't know who called Xu Yuanning at eight o'clock, as if she was looking for her. She let him go about his work now, and she should go to sleep, and nothing will happen. Even if it's anything, you can call nurses and doctors.

Xu Yuanning was still not at ease in the end, and did not leave immediately, but said that he would go out when she fell asleep. He's only going out for a while and he's coming back.

Zhou He lay down early. It didn't take long for him to fall asleep in a daze.

Xu Yuanning went to the nurse again to say hello, and asked her to pay more attention to Zhou He's side, so he left in a hurry.

Zhou He woke up in pain, and the lights in the ward were all turned off. Her head stabbed like a pinprick, and she held her head uncontrollably.

Long-term use of painkillers is addictive, and the doctor has clearly told her that she will only be given medication if the pain is really unbearable.

Although she didn't make much noise, she did alert the people in the ward, and after a short squirming sound, they came to her bedside and reached out to press the acupuncture points on her head for her.

Although Zhou He was in great pain, he didn't want to trouble others in the middle of the night, so he said intermittently in a dumb voice: "Senior Brother Xu, I'm fine, you go and rest yours." ”

The person who came didn't speak, still holding the acupuncture points for her.

The pain was getting more and more intense, and the strength in his hand was only temporarily relieved. Zhou He was so painful that she broke out in a cold sweat, but she didn't say a word. It wasn't until the second half of the night that the pain slowly subsided.

She was in a daze, and her body was slimy. Sensing that her body was gradually loosening, the hand that had been holding her head paused, reached out and leaned her head into his arms, patted it gently, and said in a low voice: "Sleep well, don't be afraid of anything, I'm here." ”

The voice in the dark was much darker than Xu Yuanning's, Zhou He's mind was confused, and he was already tired from the pain, and he didn't hear what he said clearly, so he hummed indiscriminately. After saying that, Senior Brother Xu, you should also rest.

The man didn't speak, gently put her to sleep on the bed, folded the quilt for her, and sat down on the edge of the bed, while Zhou He fell asleep groggy.

It wasn't until dawn that she woke up when she heard the doctor come to check on the ward.

Xu Yuanning and Li Peiyuan were in the ward, and after the doctor checked it, he told what needed attention, and left soon. Xu Yuanning also followed out.

Zhou He got out of bed and washed up, and he came back. With a gentle smile on his handsome face, he said: "Pack up our things, we will go home later, the time of the operation is set for the 20th, and the doctor said that you can go back and stay for ten days." But if you feel comfortable, you have to come back immediately. ”

Zhou He was lying on the hospital bed and was almost moldy, and when he heard that he could go back to live for more than ten days, he immediately came to his senses. He stuck out his tongue and said, "Then go back immediately, I'm almost suffocated to death." ”

Li Peiyuan and Xu Yuanning both let her go and responded to the problem.

Zhou He was unprecedentedly excited, and immediately went to change out of the hospital gown on his body. When he went out, Li Peiyuan had already gone downstairs to drive, leaving only Xu Yuanning in the ward.

Xu Yuanning knew that she was like an arrow, and as soon as she went out, she said, "Let's go." Uncle Xiao Li was waiting for us at the door. ”

Zhou He nodded, and the two walked out of the elevator together.

When he was standing and waiting for the elevator, Xu Yuanning took out a box of exquisite chocolates from his pocket, handed it to Zhou He, and said: "This was sent by Mr. Cheng last night, this morning, he didn't know where he heard that eating chocolate can relieve pain when he is in pain." ”

Before Zhou He could react, Xu Yuanning said again: "He came over after you fell asleep last night, I have something to deal with, and he stayed in the ward until dawn before leaving." ”

She froze and didn't speak. It turned out that last night's person was Cheng Wei. Last night's lights were off, and she didn't pay attention to the pain that was dazed.

She seemed to remember that she seemed to have called Senior Brother Xu last night.

Zhou He quickly came back to his senses, reluctantly squeezed out a smile to smile, and said, "Then Senior Brother Xu would like to thank Mr. Cheng for me." ”

Her tone was polite and rusty. Xu Yuanning nodded in response.

Escaping the smell of disinfectant water, Zhou Yi took a deep breath when he left the hospital. Li Peiyuan's car had already driven out, and Xu Yuanning said while walking over with her: "What do you want to eat, or where do you want to go, it's still early, let's go shopping and go back." ”

Zhou He thought for a moment and said, "Is it okay to go to the supermarket? ”

I don't have as much time to come back as I did in Kyoto, but I don't have much time to spare. The dumplings have to be noodles, and it's troublesome, and she hasn't made them for a long time.

Xu Yuanning responded now, and asked her what stuffing she wanted to eat.

She went back and was taken by Xu Yuanning, knowing that Li Peiyuan still had something to do, so she asked him to busy him and asked him to go back for dinner in the evening.

Li Peiyuan looked at the time, but did not insist on it.

There is a big vegetable market near the hospital, and Xu Yuanning took Zhou He to the vegetable market first. He originally wanted Zhou He to wait for him in the car, but she insisted on being together, and he let her go.

She probably didn't plan to go out these days, and bought a lot of vegetables. After buying groceries, I went to the supermarket again. She talked a little more than before, babbling about the dishes she was going to cook for the evening. The joy in the words was palpable.

Xu Yuanning's heart was very sour, but he forced a smile to echo it.

When I went to the supermarket to buy something, Zhou He also bought a lot and picked it up seriously. Xu Yuanning picked a lot of fruits and said that the doctor said to eat more fruits.

The things were almost all bought, and when they left, Zhou He thought about buying some biscuits and other things to put at home, and occasionally they could pad their stomachs when they were hungry.

She just stopped in front of the shelf, Xu Yuanning suddenly remembered that the seasoning at home was almost gone, so he asked her to wait here, and he went to buy it and came to her.

Zhou Hehe responded and continued to pick it up on the shelf.

She picked out the biscuits, and was about to choose some snacks that could resist hunger, when she looked up and saw Cheng Wei standing at the other end of the shelf. He is still in a suit and leather shoes, which is particularly eye-catching in the supermarket.

Zhou He didn't expect to meet him here, and just as he was about to greet him politely, he walked over and asked, "What do you need, I'll take it for you." ”

His voice was low and hoarse.

Zhou He put the small bread in front of him into the cart and said politely: "No, I can get it, thank you Mr. Cheng." After a slight pause, she continued: "Thank you Mr. Cheng for the chocolate this morning." ”

She's very unfamiliar.

Cheng Wei's footsteps stopped. Zhou He nodded at him again and said, "I won't bother if Mr. Cheng wants to go shopping, Senior Brother Xu is still waiting for me." ”

After she finished speaking, she pushed the cart and left, and Cheng Wei stood in place and did not move for a long time.

Zhou He directly pushed the cart to the cash register, and then called Xu Yuanning, saying that she was waiting for him over there.

When she went back, she was a little embarrassed, and she didn't talk much. Fortunately, after arriving home, I had the energy again, and I didn't even rest, and after washing my hands and changing clothes, I started to make bread dumplings.

At home, her spirits were much better than when she was in the hospital, and even her pale face was a little bloody in the busyness. Although Xu Yuanning was afraid that she would be tired, he still didn't stop her.

At noon, the two ate dumplings, and Zhou He ate two small half bowls. Dense fine sweat broke out on his forehead.

She has always had a lunch break in the hospital these days, and after eating, Xu Yuanning went to wash up, and she handed over her resignation to Meng Shan.

She has been on leave for a while this time, and as for the operation, she doesn't know how it will turn out yet. She is no longer up to her current position.

After sending the email, she went to bed and lay down, planning to take a lunch break.

Not long after lying down, the doorbell rang outside. She was in a daze, knowing that Xu Yuanning was there, but she didn't get up to look.

I woke up after taking a nap for more than an hour, and the whole person was much more relaxed. When I went downstairs, I didn't see Xu Yuanning, only the occasional noise from the kitchen.

Zhou He walked over, and Xu Yuanning was preparing the evening's dishes in the kitchen. I want her to do less work when she cooks later.

He heard her footsteps, looked back, and said with a slight smile: "Wake up, I boiled red dates and white fungus soup, and it's still hot, come over and drink it slowly." ”

Zhou Hehe responded and went into the kitchen. Xu Yuanning had already taken a bowl from the cupboard and gave her a small bowl of white fungus soup.

Zhou He took it, and Xu Yuanning said again: "When you went to sleep, Mr. Cheng sent two fish over, saying that they had just been caught from the lake, and they were very nutritious, how do you like to eat, is it good to steam?"

It turned out that someone rang the doorbell at that time, and it was Cheng Wei's person who sent the fish over, and Zhou He blew the white fungus soup and said, "I have always been in good health, so I don't need to make up for it." Senior brother, if Mr. Cheng sends something over next time, please don't send it again. ”

Xu Yuanning was stunned, but didn't say anything, and nodded in response.

Zhou He smiled and drank the white fungus soup. The white fungus soup is stewed very badly, neither sweet nor greasy. She drank it and filled it again.

Although she asked Cheng Wei not to send food over, but when Li Peiyuan came back in the evening, Cheng Wei actually came over with him. He was still the same as when he met him at noon, and when he entered the house, his eyes fell on Zhou He.

Zhou He didn't look at him, nor did he speak, and served soup and rice.

This is the first time in this time that I have been cooking at home. Several people were very supportive, and with Xu Yuanning's active atmosphere, the atmosphere at the table was not too stiff.

After eating, he probably wanted to leave space for Zhou He and Cheng Wei. Li Peiyuan went outside to make a call, and Xu Yuanning went upstairs to take a bath. There were only two people left in the living room, Cheng Wei and Zhou He.

The atmosphere was extremely quiet for a while, and after a while, Cheng Wei asked in a low voice, "Do you have a headache when you come back today?"

He still vividly remembered the way she had a headache last night.

That day, he went on a business trip after signing the contract she asked people to send over, and it was only later that Lao Cao called and learned that she was hospitalized.

"It's all good. After a slight pause, she raised a pair of clear eyes and looked at Cheng Wei, and said, "Mr. Cheng doesn't need to send anything over in the future, whatever you need, Senior Brother Xu and my little uncle will prepare." Don't bother with the journey. ”

Cheng Wei's throat was very dry, and her deep eyes locked her, and she shouted, "Ah He......"

Zhou He didn't go to see him, don't look too far, and said, "It's not early, Mr. Cheng, please go back." I won't leave Mr. Cheng behind. ”
