Chapter 62: He's Gone

Uncle Yu!" Xiao Xi suddenly shouted, with a straight face, "You didn't even see Xiao Xi!"

The little girl was ignored and looked unhappy.

"Hey, Xiaoxi," Yu Chen touched her head and said with a smile, "Why didn't Uncle Yu see our little princess, Uncle Yu was talking to your mother just now." ”

"Hmph, it's not," Xiao Xi pouted, looking arrogant, "You're in love, think I don't know!"

My face was red, I thought that the little girl didn't understand anything, how could she know everything, I was embarrassed to look directly into her innocent eyes.

Don't underestimate children's ability to understand, their ability to understand is stronger than we think, but their way of understanding is different from what we think.

"Xiao Xi is so smart. Yu Chen shaved her nose with a smile.

The little girl smiled proudly, and her tail was about to reach the sky.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xiaoxi's drip was finished. Yu Chen drove us back to the hotel.

The hotel restaurant was still open, and we ordered two light meals and a white porridge for Xiaoxi.

After dinner, Yu Chen sent us back to the room, and I helped Xiaoxi take a bath and coax her to sleep.

He stood by and watched quietly, with a smile on his lips all the time.

When Xiaoxi fell asleep, I crept to my feet.

Before he stood up, he was hugged into a warm embrace.

"Are you tired today?" he said gently.

"It's fine. "I'm still a little unaccustomed to this sudden intimacy, but I didn't push him away," Xiaoxi has to go to the hospital tomorrow for an intravenous drip, and it seems that she can only go back the day after tomorrow. ”

Originally, I was planning to go back to City C tomorrow, but now it seems that I can only delay it for another day.

He turned my body, kissed me on the forehead, and said, "Well, rest early tonight, and I'll pick you up from the hospital tomorrow morning." ”

I smiled at him, "Well, you should go back and rest early." Good night. ”

He also smiled and said, "Good night." ”

After he left, I went to take a bath, and after taking a bath, I felt very sleepy and tired, turned off the light and lay on the bed, but I couldn't sleep at all, and suddenly remembered what Xiaowan said in the afternoon.

She said, "Are you moved or grateful...... Don't mistake others and yourself. ”

I felt depressed in my heart, my head hurt a little, and I stayed up until the second half of the night before falling asleep.

The next day I was woken up by the alarm clock, Xiaoxi was going to the hospital for an intravenous drip this morning, and I set an alarm clock.

Lack of sleep, top-heavy, after washing her face, she felt more awake, and then coaxed Xiaoxi to get up, wash, and help her get dressed.

At half past eight, Yu Chen called and said that he had arrived at the door of the hotel.

We had the morning in the hotel restaurant and then headed to the hospital.

After hanging up the drip, Yu Chen took his mobile phone to play the cartoon for Xiaoxi to see.

I told Yu Chen that I would go to the bathroom and ask him to take care of it.

He responded with a smile, lowered his head and continued to watch cartoons with Xiaoxi.

When I came out of the bathroom, I felt a little dizzy, and when I passed by the hallway, I ran into him!

He probably didn't expect to run into me here, visibly stunned.

The summer sun was too violent, and the sunlight spilled obliquely into the corridor, I felt dizzy, and seeing that his familiar and unfamiliar face was ghosted, I suddenly laughed, how could there be so many Gu Feng.

There was a buzzing buzz in my ears, and the next moment, the scene in front of me was covered in darkness.

When I woke up, I felt a beep in my ears and the lights on the ceiling were shining.

I put my hand over my eyes and blinked, getting used to the light.

"Xia Qing?" a hoarse and low male voice, with a slight tremor in his voice.

When my brain "boomed", I was completely awake, and then I found myself lying on a white hospital bed. Gu Feng was right next to me, his eyes full of worry.

I struggled to sit up, and he held me up.

I shook his hand away, but he hugged me so hard that one hand was on the back of my neck, and I was forced to look up. There seemed to be burning fire in his eyes, but his expression seemed to be extremely painful.

I felt dizzy again, and the darkness came againβ€”but it was his face that fell down, and the cool lips fell to mine.

In an instant, the memories were like a sea of mountains and clouds, and my mind went blank and my heart beat wildly.

He was like a desert thirsty man seeing an oasis, and the hysterical kisses almost suffocated me, and I tasted the blood of rust.

I woke up from a dream and pushed him away.

He didn't expect my movements, and was pushed away by me, staggering backwards, and then stood in a daze, staring straight at me, his heavy eyes making me almost powerless.

He slowly approached, and I curled up my legs, wrapped my arms, and buried my head, and he seemed to stop.

Silent.

After a while, he said, "You called my name when you fainted...... Triple ......"

My heart was shocked, and I felt inexplicably painful, as if someone had been drilled with a needle little by little, sore, soft and painful.

"I ......," he was about to say something, when my phone rang.

I slowly flipped out my phone, it was Yu Chen, and I picked it up.

He was a little anxious: "Xia Qing, where have you been, why have you been there for so long, are you okay?"

"I'm ......," I said, my voice a little hoarse, and I coughed lightly before continuing, "I'm fine." ”

I got out of bed and walked out of the ward without looking at Gu Feng again.

He stood there, motionless.

When I walked out of the ward, I found that the corridor around the corner was just now.

I met a nurse in the hallway, and she looked at me a few times before she smiled and said, "Are you okay?" You fainted just now, your boyfriend was so nervous, I thought something was wrong with you. It's the first time I've seen someone faint with low blood sugar and be so nervous, it's so scary. ”

She finished and left.

I was slightly stunned and continued to walk towards the injection area.

From a distance, I saw Yu Chen standing at the door of the injection area, holding his mobile phone in his hand, and looked over here.

I walked over, and he frowned slightly: "Why is your face so pale?

I shook my head, felt my legs weak, sat down in the chair, looked at him and smiled: "It's okay, just now...... Dizzy, rested in the hallway. ”

"Why are you dizzy? Go see the doctor, I'll help you hang up the number of Director Chen of the Department of Neurology." He finished and prepared to walk out.

I took his hand and shook my head: "I'm fine, it's just that I didn't sleep well last night." ”

He then said, "If you are still dizzy tomorrow, you must go to the doctor for a check-up." ”

I answered.

Xiaoxi's bits and pieces were almost over, and Yu Chen said that he would go to the parking lot to drive the car to the door first.

After pulling out the needle, I pressed the cotton swab on the back of her hand.

"Grandpa!" Xiao Xi suddenly shouted.

I turned my head and looked at it, stunned, it was Gu Changxiang.

He seemed to be much older, but his brow was much kinder, and he had a frog doll in his hand.

He must have recognized me, too, and his eyes seemed a little complicated, and he walked over.

He handed the frog doll to Xiao Xi in a kind tone: "Xiao Xi, give it to you." ”

I was shocked, how could he know about Xiao Xi......

"Mom, can I take it?" Xiao Xi asked with round eyes, longing written on her face.

Gu Changxiang may have seen my doubts, and he took the initiative to speak: "I didn't expect Xiaoxi to be your daughter. Yesterday I saw her here alone on a drip, so I chatted with her for a while. ”

"Mom, this is the grandfather who told me a lot of stories yesterday. Grandpa said that he still came to the hospital today, and I told him that Xiaoxi was too. Xiaoxi whispered to me, probably thinking that I was not happy that she was talking too much to strangers.

"Mom, can I ask for Grandpa's frog?" Xiao Xi asked again in a low voice.

I rubbed her hair and nodded.

"Thank you, Mom!" she grinned, and looked up at Gu Changxiang again, "Thank you, grandpa!"

Took the frog and touched it curiously.

"Xia Qing," Gu Changxiang suddenly spoke, as if he was considering the wording, and continued after a while, "Zhengfeng is very ill, and he is hospitalized in this hospital...... Earlier this year he told me about him and your mother, and he knew you were his daughter. Speaking of which, our Gu family is also responsible, back then, I shouldn't have agreed to the marriage of Shufen and Zhengfeng without figuring out the matter, which not only hurt your mother, but also delayed the two of them. ”

"In the past few years, Zhengfeng has been looking for you, if you want to, go and see him, he ...... His time may be running out. With that, he sighed, turned to leave, and paused, "You now have your own family, and your daughter is also very lovely." Gu Feng's child, he has ...... in the past few years Alas, I hope you will make him completely dead, so that it is good for both of you. ”

After Gu Changxiang finished speaking, he left.

I picked up Xiaoxi and walked hurriedly, Yu Chen must have been in a hurry.

"Mom, you didn't hold your phone in the chair!" Xiao Xi reminded me.

I looked blankly, grabbed my phone from my chair, and walked out quickly.

Yu Chen's car was at the door, I opened the door of the back seat and put Xiaoxi in, and then sat in by myself.

"Xia Qing?" Yu Chen said suspiciously.

"Huh?" I looked up at him.

"The door didn't close. He said.

"Oh!" I hurriedly closed the door.

The car started slowly, and the white building slowly disappeared into the rearview mirror.

"Mom, look, this frog can speak English!" Xiao Xi pressed the switch on the frog, and the frog told the story in English.

"Uh-huh, okay. "I touched the frog, and it was soft.

"Xia Qing," Yu Chen looked at me from the rearview mirror in the car, with a worried tone, "What's wrong with you?

"No, I'm fine......" I looked up at him, trying to pull the corners of my mouth but couldn't laugh.

He looked at me a few more times, retracted his gaze, and it happened to be a red light, and he slammed the brakes on it, and I hit the backrest of the front seat.

"Hee-hee, mom, you're clumsy!" Xiao Xi was laughing.

I touched her head and smiled.

She continued to play with the frog doll.

The car was quiet, and you could hear the sound of Xiaoyu pulling the frog doll, and the sound of clicking.

"Xia Qing, I saw that person at the door just now......" Yu Chen looked ahead, his tone indifferent.

"Yu Chen, do you know, I fainted after coming out of the hospital bathroom just now, and then I was sent to the ward to lie down for a while, if Xiaowan knew, she would definitely say that I was more delicate than Sister Lin. I said so loudly that even Xiaoxi stopped his movements and looked at me with round eyes.

He turned his head, his eyes worried, "What's the matter?"

"I haven't slept well recently, and the nurse said that it was a little hypoglycemic, and it was fine after resting. I said with a smile.

He was about to say something, someone was honking the horn behind him, the signal light had turned green, he turned around and stepped on the accelerator.

Back at the hotel, Yu Chen answered the phone, I motioned for him to go first, and then took Xiaoxi back to the room.

At noon, I ordered takeout to the room, two light millet pumpkin porridge. Xiaoxi said it was delicious and finished eating all the bowls of porridge. I took two bites, felt no appetite, and put down the dishes and chopsticks.

Xiaoxi played with the frog for a while and began to feel sleepy, she had the habit of taking a nap, plus she was sick, and soon fell asleep.

I lay next to her, touching her face, eyebrows, nose, small, limp.

Fell asleep unconsciously.

When I woke up, the sun was about to set, Xiaoxi hadn't woken up yet, I coaxed her to get up, she shouldn't be able to sleep tonight if she slept for too long.

Xiaoxi got up in a daze, I took the clothes for her to wear, just put the clothes into her neck, the phone rang, it was an unfamiliar local number.

It wasn't flagged as a sales pitch or insurance call, so I picked it up.

"Hello, is it Miss Xia Qingxia?" was a female voice on the other end of the phone, and her voice was neither humble nor arrogant.

"I am, who are you?" I asked.

"My surname is Liu, and I am the head of the legal department of Zhongzheng Group. I am entrusted by Mr. Xu Zhengfeng and need you to sign a few documents on the equity transfer of Zhongzheng Group. What time is convenient for you?" she spoke clearly, word by word.

"I don't know Mr. Xu Zhengfeng. If it's okay, that's it. "I'm ready to hang.

"Miss Xia, Mr. Xu Zhengfeng has transferred the equity in his name to your name, and now you are the largest shareholder of Zhongzheng Group, which has legal effect. You will need to be present at next month's general meeting. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or contact Mr. Xu Zhengfeng directly. Lawyer Liu has a businesslike tone.

"Mom, my hands can't fit in. Xiao Xi tugged at her clothes and tried to put her hand in her sleeve.

I hung up the phone and helped Xiaoxi get dressed.

The sun is setting in the west, and the sky is orange.

I took Xiaoxi downstairs and took a taxi to the hospital.

By the time I arrived at the hospital, the slightest glow in the sky had disappeared.

found the inpatient department, asked the nurse, and led Xiaoxi slowly in.

The hospital was full of white walls, beds, and sheets.

I walked to the door of the ward, the metal door plate glowing coldly, and through the glass of the door, I saw a large patch of white, with a slight bulge under the white sheets, only a part of it could be seen.

I knocked on the door, and the sound of someone coming over, the door opened, and it was a middle-aged woman in a nursing suit: "May I ask who you are?" she said.

"My name is Xia Qing, I'm looking for Xu Zhengfeng, is he staying in this ward?" I said.

"Wait a minute, I'll ask. The middle-aged woman walked in and soon came out again, "Please come in." ”

There was a sofa at the door, so I hugged Xiao Xi and told her: "Xiao Xi will sit here for a while, and my mother will come out soon." ”

"Mmmm, mom, go ahead, I'll play with frogs. She tugged at the frog and put it in a different pose.

I touched her head and walked inside.

The eyes were white sheets, the person on the bed was pale, wearing an oxygen mask, his hair was almost gone, his cheeks were sunken, his cheekbones were high and raised, and the red, red, green and green tubes were submerged under the sheets.

Hearing the voice, he opened his eyelids, and when he raised his hand, he seemed to have a hard time, removing the oxygen mask from his face.

"Xiaoqing. His voice was weak, and his half-open eyes seemed to light up, "You're here?"

I nodded, sat down on the stool next to the bed, and glanced at him, "Mr. Xu." ”

His eyes seemed to dim instantly, and he sighed: "I'm sorry for you and your mother......"

"Mr. Xu," I clasped my hands and my eyes drooped slightly, "I came to ask you to withdraw the equity transfer." ”

There was silence in the room for a moment, and just as he wanted to speak, he coughed violently, as if he couldn't breathe, and the nurse hurriedly walked in, he stopped coughing for a moment, and waved his hand to signal her to go out.

"I have already signed, Lawyer Liu has already completed the formalities, and I can't get it back. His voice was weak but firm, and he continued for a while, intermittently as if recalling, "Four years ago, after you asked me those questions, I had doubts, and then I went to G City, and I learned about the events of that year...... I saw your mother and ...... downstairs Her husband, she was happy and I didn't bother her. ”

He paused and took a few breaths before continuing, his voice with a sense of forbearance: "I have never fulfilled my fatherly responsibilities to you, I have been looking for you for the past four years, Gu Feng has also been looking for you, that child is braver than me back then, he has carried the project of the year alone." Then you disappeared, and he searched for you all over the world. ”

I listened in a daze, my fingers twisted together a little red, and I didn't interrupt him.

"My only concern right now is you. Gu Feng is a good boy, and he is an infatuated person like his mother. Back then, Xu Gu's two families married, and Gu Lao didn't agree at first, but later agreed. At that time, I didn't know why, but in the third year after I got married, one day Shufen shed tears in front of a photo, and when I saw that photo, I instantly understood. That was Gu Feng's biological father, and he looked very similar to me. She confessed to me that she had never loved me and that I was only married because I looked similar to her ex-husband, but then she found out that it was just a similar skin after all, and she said she was sorry for me. I couldn't bear to see her blame herself so much, and I confessed to her that the only thing I love in my life is your mother. When she heard this, she was relieved. Later, we got along as friends and only maintained our status as husband and wife in front of outsiders. Later, Shufen became depressed and fell ill because she missed Gu Feng's father too much, and went to the United States to recuperate. Maybe Gu Feng was still young at the time, he didn't understand the things of adults, he thought I had done something to his mother, so he didn't want to see me all these years. ”

He said a lot of words in one breath, and gasped weakly for a long time as if he had exhausted all his strength, and looked at me sadly: "The people I am most sorry for in this life are you and your mother. She should hate me, I don't expect her to forgive me, I just hope that she can live this life peacefully and happily. I'm running out of time to do anything more for you. I don't want you to recognize me, I just want you to be happy. ”

He suddenly gasped sharply, and I was at a loss, and the caretaker rushed in, pressed the walkie-talkie at the bedside, and soon a bunch of people poured in.

The doctor methodically administered the first aid, and I was squeezed into a corner, and my brain was still dumb.

He lay there lifeless with his eyes closed, as if he had stopped breathing, and I suddenly felt frightened, remembering when I was a child, when there was a thunderstorm, I hid alone in the small room under the covers and covered my ears, and the thunder sounded one after another as if it were about to split the sky, like the eve of the appearance of a monster on TV. At that time, adults always scared children and said that if they were not obedient, there would be monsters coming out to take the children away.

It was a sunny day, but I felt as if there was thunder in my head, and I was drenched in cold sweat.

A warm hand took my hand, soft.

I looked down, Xiao Xi didn't know when she ran over, she looked up at me, her eyes were clear: "Mom, what's wrong with that grandpa?"

Her words brought my thoughts back, and I realized that the doctor had finished the examination, and an older male doctor came up to me and said, "Are you a family member of the patient?"

Somehow, I nodded.

"The patient's condition is not very good, and he may not be able to survive tonight, so be mentally prepared. He looked at him heavily, nodded, and walked out, followed by the other doctors and nurses.

I leaned against the window, the sun was shining, and suddenly I felt so weak that I could barely stand on my feet, and I had to fight hard against the wall to stand still.

The doctor gave him analgesia, and he fell asleep.

I finally couldn't support it, my body slid down, squatted on the ground, and hugged Xiaoxi, her body was warm and soft, with a faint milky fragrance.

There was a soft touch on her head, she was touching my head, and then she held my face, and touched my eyes, I noticed that there was a coolness, and she kissed my forehead: "Mom, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." ”

Children don't know what sadness is, only what pain is. In the past, when she fell down and wanted to cry, I would kiss her on the forehead and say that it didn't hurt or hurt, and she wouldn't cry.

I sat on the stool with Xiaoxi in my arms, she glanced at the person on the bed, and said curiously, "Mom, is this grandpa sick?

I kissed her forehead and said, "Well, grandpa is sick, Xiaoxi is good, don't disturb grandpa to sleep." ”

An hour later, Xu Zhengfeng woke up again, and when he saw Xiaoxi, he was surprised and looked at me suspiciously, with some kind of expectation.

"Her name is Xia Xi and she is my daughter. I paused before continuing, "It's also Gu Feng's daughter." ”

His eyes suddenly lit up, as if he wanted to raise his hand.

I let Xiao Xi carry her to the hospital bed, and his hand lifted with great effort and touched her head.

"Xiaoxi, call grandpa. I shook her little hand.

"Grandpa. Xiao Xi was very obedient and looked at him with round eyes.

His eyes filled with tears and slipped down the corners of his eyes.

Xiaoxi climbed to the head of the bed and kissed his forehead: "Grandpa doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." ”

His tears flowed even harder.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Xu Zhengfeng completely closed his eyes.

I stood at the door with Xiaoxi in my arms and watched the doctors and nurses rush in again.

"Mom, what's wrong with grandpa?" Xiao Xi looked at me and asked.

"Grandpa fell asleep. "I felt soft in my hands and legs, and I could barely hold her.

Two people walked down the hallway.

"Grandpa!" Xiao Xi shouted, and when she saw another person, she called out again, "Uncle Shuai." ”

Gu Feng's eyes were heavy, he looked at me deeply, then at Xiaoxi, and went into the ward to find a doctor.

The night was deep, dark and gloomy like a monster with teeth and claws.

You silently turn to the side, facing the night. In the depths of the night, there are dense lamps. Together, we're going to see you again. Goodbye, for goodbye. - "Goodbye" Gu Cheng
