Chapter 12 Rebirth Song
June 23rd, for me, was a special day.
I'll never forget that day.
That day, Xue Qi lay on the snow-white bed, panting incessantly, coughing did not stop, her little face was pale and bloodless, a pair of black eyes stared at me, and her big weak eyes showed infinite reluctance.
"Papa, my throat hurts......" Xue Qi said to me as she lay on the hospital bed, her face pale.
"Qiqi endured a little oh, the doctor said, Qiqi, your condition is improving, and you can be discharged from the hospital soon. ”
Xue Qi nodded obediently, holding the white blanket with her little hands, looking at me with big black eyes, and was silent for a while, Xue Qi suddenly said to me: "Papa, Qiqi misses you so much, I really want to be with Papa forever." ”
Xue Qi's little hand grabbed my hand, and gently spit out the childish words in her small mouth.
"Qiqi said something stupid, and never lied to Qiqi. I said to Xue Qi with a forced smile.
"Hmm. Listening to my words, Xue Qi nodded slightly, "Papa?"
"Well, what's wrong with Qiqi?"
"Papa, you raised me so big...... It's hard, isn't it?"
Xue Qi lowered her head, her little hands playing with the folded futon, and suddenly asked me.
Xue Qi asked this, which made me stunned for a moment. In an instant, the bits and pieces of the past 12 years, the hardships and hardships I have suffered, are like beer with the lid removed.
Thinking of the beginning when I hid from my father to raise Xueqi, thinking of the time when I ran around the city again and again for her, thinking of the countless efforts I had made for her, and missing one after another beautiful feelings that may accompany me for the rest of my life.
My heart is like a knife.
However, my eyes were still moist, because I didn't expect Xue Qi to be so well-behaved and sensible one day and ask me this.
At that moment, I suddenly felt that everything I had paid for Xueqi in the past twelve years, everything I had done for her, was worth it.
Whether it was sad or difficult, at that moment, I felt no regrets.
"Papa is not hard, Papa likes Qiqi, everything for Qiqi is worth it, Papa feels happy. I touched Xueqi's little brain and said with a smile.
Listening to my words and being touched by my head, Xue Qi slowly raised her head and showed me a faint and warm smile.
"Papa, thank you...... Papa, I like you too. ”
Xue Qi looked at me, grabbed my hand with her little hand, and said, "Papa, if I get well and grow up, I must marry you and be your bride...... Then you don't have to find a new mother, I can be my own mother......"
Listening to Xueqi's words, I was happy, I really laughed, I pinched Xueqi's little face, and said, "Qiqi is talking nonsense again." When Qiqi grows up, you will also meet the boy you like, and then you will leave Papa and live with him. ”
"But papa...... You're the best person I've ever had...... No other boy will be better than you are to me............ Papa, I want to be your bride and be with you all the time. Looking at me, Xue Qi pursed her small mouth, but her dark eyes were full of determination. "Papa, I don't want you to go, okay?"
Xue Qi looked at me with a pitiful look in her eyes.
Looking at her, I finally sighed.
"Okay, then Papa will be waiting for you for ten years. Qiqi, if you still only like Papa alone in ten years, Papa will marry your bride......"
"Okay, then Papa is not allowed to play tricks~"
Listening to my words, Xue Qi smiled, smiled very brightly, she grabbed my arm, and her pale little face showed an unprecedented smile, like a spring flower blooming in the cold winter wax moon.
"Papa, you're so nice......"
Warm little hands grabbed my arm, Xue Qi smiled faintly, looked at me, after a while, she finally couldn't resist, her big tired eyes gradually dimmed, and her heavy eyelids slowly closed.
Xue Qi slept.
"Sleep well and have a good dream. Qiqi. ”
Watching Xue Qi fall asleep, I finally opened Xue Qi easily and grabbed my hand, and slowly pulled the white sheet over Xue Qi's body.
Then, unable to restrain myself any longer, I buried my face in the head of her bed and cried bitterly.
……
That night, I had a nightmare.
I've had countless nightmares in my life, but never one was so real.
In the dream, I saw Xue Qi lying on the bed, she smiled and said that she liked me and wanted to be my bride, and she also said that she would be with me forever. I also told her that I was going to be with her forever too.
Then Xue Qi smiled.
And I cried.
In that moment, we finally grasped each other's happiness.
And just when we both grasped the moment of happiness, Xueqi still left me, and with the sound of wind and rain whistling outside the window, she left this cold world.
Then I dreamed that the morning after Xueqi's death, I took the cold Xueqi to the back mountain where my father was buried, and on the Monkey Mountain, I buried Xueqi and buried her in the deepest part of my heart forever.
I also dreamed that I burned all the evidence that Xueqi had ever had in this world, her pictures, her clothes, swaddling clothes, her baby bottle, and all her pictures at the grave......
In my dreams, in the light of the fire that burned everything, I saw the bits and pieces that I had walked with Xueqi, from the beach full of fireworks to the country meadows full of stars, from the bright lights of the city to the red maple forest with thick autumn leaves, and then the snowy world......
In my memory, Xueqi and I are so happy, as if we have grasped the eternity of a moment, grasped the eternal and supreme happiness, and then will be together forever and will never be separated again.
However, when the memories ended, I still buried Xueqi, the angel who made me cry and laugh.
For me, it was a real nightmare.
A nightmare of great sadness and bleakness.
I was so sad that when I woke up from my dream, I still had tears in the corners of my eyes.
But dreams, always wake up.
When I gradually regained my senses, I realized that I was still in the white hospital room, and the bright morning light was shining through the window that had opened the curtains, and I couldn't open my eyes.
In the white morning light, I was surprised to see the beautiful figure that once made me cry bitterly.
Xue Qi stood in the sprinkled white morning light, pulling the corner of the curtain, smiling sweetly at me.
A short white skirt, snow-like skin, bare feet, and long black hair that hung down and was scattered.
Xue Qi stood in front of me like an angel, a pair of clear and innocent black eyes looked at me fixedly, smiling sweetly at me.
The white sunlight illuminated half of her body, as if half of her body had melted into the sunlight.
"Papa, you're awake. ”
Looking at me, Xue Qi finally smiled faintly, she stood straight, soaking up the sun, her hand pulling the curtains, and gently spit out words like the wind to me.
At that moment, I finally came back to my senses, and then there was a fierce joy that almost went crazy.
"Qiqi, can you get out of bed and walk?!"
I couldn't believe my eyes.
I couldn't believe what was happening in front of me.
How many days, how many days and nights, what I look forward to is that one day, Xue Qi will be able to step down from that hospital bed like a shackle.
My only hope is that Xueqi will get better, be able to get out of bed, walk again, and dance again...... Just like before.
Like so many years in hospitals.
It's finally here.
"Papa, I'm much better......" Xue Qi said to me as she stood by the window, smiling and laughing.
As she spoke, her little feet touched the ground slightly, and she also spun around.
The short white skirt swirls gently, with a little bit of sunshine, like a fluttering waltz that has not been heard for many years.
"Qiqi!!" Seeing Xueqi dancing in place, I could no longer suppress the excitement and joy in my heart, I rushed up and hugged Xueqi in my arms.
I hugged her tightly.
I don't want to let go anymore.
I was afraid that in the next moment, someone would take away this happiness from me that I had been waiting for for so long.
"Papa, it hurts me when you hug me...... papa, why are you crying......"
"Papa didn't cry, Papa was happy, happy that Qiqi got better and was able to get out of bed and walk......"
I laughed and cried like a madman, not knowing what was wrong with me.
Perhaps this is what happens when people get long-lost hope in their most desperate moments.
"Papa, I'm so happy. Being held by me, Xue Qi also smiled, and she also opened her slender arms and hugged me. “papa,papa……”
"Huh?"
"Papa, last night, I had a dream. ”
"Oh?"
"Papa, I dreamed of my mother. Xue Qi hugged me, looked at me with dark eyes, and said to me softly, "I didn't see my mother's appearance clearly, but my mother was very good to me, and she told me that she would bless me well...... Then this morning, I found myself able to get out of bed. ”
I looked at Xue Qi in surprise, full of disbelief.
Suddenly I understood something.
I turned my head slowly and looked out the window at the white world illuminated by the sun.
Xueqi's mother, are you always blessing Xueqi?
The white-gold sunlight was so bright that I couldn't open my eyes, but I seemed to see a new world on the other side of the white light.
And a beautiful face smiling.
……
Next, I took Xueqi for a full body checkup.
The results of the full body examination came out quickly, and Xueqi's diagnostician told me in disbelief that Xueqi's physical condition was even better than he had imagined, and that many of the symptoms that he had thought would worsen seemed to be improving.
Even more incredible things are still happening, after several more comprehensive diagnoses, the attending doctor cautiously told me that Xueqi's body is improving, although it is very slow, but if this continues, there is really a possibility of recovery.
When I was told the results of the examination, the diagnostician was a little surprised and said that he had been doing this department for so many years, and he had seen all kinds of situations, but he had never been in such a condition as Xueqi.
With this disease at her age, she would have had little hope, but now that she has taken a turn for the better, it can really only be described as incredible.
The diagnostician said that it seems that Leptin's new drug is really amazing, and if this drug can be promoted, it may be the biggest blessing for patients with this type of disease in the future.
At that moment, I couldn't believe my ears.
It's a miracle.
The doctor told me.
I thought so too.
And in the following days, Xueqi's recovery also happened to cater to the doctor's statement.
As the days went by, Xueqi's condition really improved, her body began to recover, her blood color was getting better and better, and after two weeks, she was able to walk on the ground, and she was able to walk a short distance.
At that time, I really felt that God was really looking after me.
A week later, I decisively let Xueqi have surgery, after all, drugs only play a role in slow treatment and slow down the disease, and if you want to eradicate it, you have to rely on surgery.
At that time, Xueqi was already 12 years old, and as her condition improved and her body recovered, she was already able to undergo surgery.
The operation took place overnight.
And I waited outside the operating room for the night.
When Xueqi was carried out of the operating room, the doctor told me that the operation was very successful.
The doctor's words came true.
Indeed, that operation was very successful, and did not leave any sequelae for Xueqi, and after that operation, Xueqi really began to recover completely within a few days, becoming lively and energetic.
I spent a lot of money to bring in an internationally renowned internist and it didn't disappoint me.
A month later, Xueqi was discharged from the hospital.
When she was discharged from the hospital, Xueqi had fully recovered.
On that day, she wore a black sunhat with a white background, a pure white skirt, and brand new red dancing shoes that reflected the sun.
More than a year of hospitalization has not left a shadow on Xueqi, the only difference is that Xueqi is thinner and her skin is whiter.
At that moment, Xue Qi's slender figure left a beautiful reflection in the sun.
"Papa, I want to dance to show you. ”
Basking in the sunshine outside, Xue Qi turned her head to squint and smile at me, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth.
"Qiqi, don't make trouble, let's go home and talk about it. I said to her with a smile as I carried my luggage.
"Hmm~~ No, right now!" Xue Qi pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head, and then in front of me, the red dancing shoes moved, the lotus steps moved lightly, and the dreamy little figure outlined a picture-like beauty in the repeated disappearance of light and shadow.
At that moment, she was so beautiful under the sun.
That's the limit of beauty.
That kind of beauty is the limit of beauty, which is the exact opposite of the poignancy of the snow withering.
That kind of beauty represents rebirth, but also light and hope.
What is more beautiful in the world than life?
At that moment, I was stunned and cried.
Looking at Xue Qi's most beautiful dance to express her heart, I couldn't help but applaud.
At the entrance of the hospital, many passers-by also witnessed Xueqi's dancing, and they gathered over and clapped their hands with me. praised Xueqi and said that this girl is so beautiful, she dances very well, and she will definitely be a star in the future.
Only I know that Xueqi is a star who belongs only to me.
"Papa, am I dancing well?" The moment she stopped dancing, Xue Qi looked at me, squinting and smiling.
"Good. Qiqi, you dance very well, Papa likes it very much!" I praised loudly, and Xueqi smiled happily.
That day, Xueqi finally returned to the home she had missed for a long time.
Home is still home, and it is still the home that records the joys and sorrows of me and Xueqi.
Sofas, TVs, chandeliers, tables and chairs, and even the dusty spiral staircase all bring back memories of me.
The square table that had been knocked over reminded me of my long, long father.
The "Peace of Life" cross-stitch hanging on the high wall reminded me of the unfinished parting song that Ma Yike and I had parted from at the station.
The teacup that had been knocked over reminded me of Tang Mengyan's desperate face when she left crying that day.
And that calendar that has expired reminds me of the madness of my trip around China with Xueqi in the year, and the passionate and difficult past years, but now looking back, it is so dreamlike.
When she came home that day, Xue Qi saw the calendar on the wall, and she said to me, "Papa, the calendar is outdated."
I said, let's go buy a new calendar.
That night, I took Xueqi to the city and bought a brand new calendar, which was an animal calendar with all kinds of cute animals. It was hand-picked by Xueqi herself.
That was also the beginning of a new life for me and Xueqi.
In the following days, Xue Qi's body no longer had any abnormalities, she was as healthy and lively as a few years ago, carefree, and no longer had worries and boredom.
Perhaps the only trouble is Xue Qi's sentence that she wasted two years of study.
But compared to Xueqi's freshmanship, that little thing can almost be ignored.
Because I never cared about Xueqi's studies, my immovable assets alone already have tens of millions, even if Xueqi never goes to school and doesn't work, my money is enough to support her for a few lifetimes.
When it comes to academics, I'm never worried.
As the years changed, Xueqi began to change, and in the following days, she grew rapidly, and almost every few months, I would find that she had grown significantly taller by an inch.
Xue Qi has begun to get out of the stage of little Lori, like a butterfly breaking out of a cocoon, becoming more and more beautiful, and changing more and more in the direction of a girl.
Xue Qi is getting more and more beautiful, more beautiful than ever before.
It's just that her face will always have a bit of innocence and childishness, and she will always be the simple and ignorant cute little girl in my impression.
In the second half of the year, Xue Qi started her 6th grade campus life in another school, but because of the disconnection of nearly two years, coupled with the unfamiliar environment, Xue Qi's grades have not been ideal, and Xue Qi was also very depressed at that time, although I taught her, but Xue Qi's grades still did not go up. Although I don't care about Xue Qi's grades, Xue Qi is always sullen.
However, in October, I received another piece of good news. That good news also brought a turnaround for me Xueqi.
It was a short message.
It was a text message from Ma Yike, and I was overjoyed.
Because Ma Yike hadn't had much contact with me in years. When I saw her text message, I was really surprised and delighted.
Ma Yike texted and said that he hadn't contacted me for a long time, but because there were many things and he was uncertain, he didn't know what to say, and he was really sorry. She also told me that because of her husband's job transfer, she was going back to the city to work, and she wanted to see me, have a meal with me, and see how old she was by the way. She also said that if I want to find a tutor for Xueqi, I can find her and her husband.
At that time, I learned that Ma Yike's husband was a math teacher.
It doesn't get much more exciting news than this.
A few days later, Xue Qi finally met Sister Coco, whom she hadn't seen for 6 years.
And that meeting also became a turning point for Xueqi's grades to start improving again.
But the news continues to my delight.
A few days after Ma Yike's return, I received another message from an unfamiliar mobile phone.
When I saw it, I was immediately unsettled. It was actually Tang Mengyan's message to me.
Tang Mengyan texted me and said, "Boss, I didn't expect it to be me." Boss, let me tell you, I've been admitted to the secretary certificate. I'm doing a good job now, I've got a boyfriend, are you jealous? If you're still waiting for me, don't wait, bless me! But I still want to ask, if I come back one day, would you still want to be my boss?
When I saw Tang Mengyan's text message, I was stunned and immediately emotional, but in the end, I still shook my head helplessly and gave her a positive reply, the reply was very simple, only two words:
Of course.
The moment I replied to the text message, I secretly swore that if Tang Mengyan really came back, I would do my best to protect her. It's like a big brother to a little sister. I will inherit Zhang Yang's former wish, and protect and help Tang Mengyan until she enters the palace of marriage. I want to do what Zhang Yang didn't do, and go higher and farther than Zhang Yang.
I can't lose to him.
……
Life is still going on, and good news is still coming one after another, because Xueqi's clinical trials have proved that the effect of Leptin's new drugs is effective, my cooperation with Leptin has deepened, after the introduction of a large number of Leptin's new drugs, with the best effect of the new drug, Sanxin company has set off a revolution in the medical community, many people in the medical community said that under the conditions of this new drug promotion, the survival rate of patients with diseases like Xueqi will increase significantly in the future. The only downside is that the price of that new drug is too expensive for the average person to afford.
Of course, that's all for later.
Everything is getting better, and with the Doomsday years in the past, my life has finally reached a new peak.
Due to Chairman Tang's retirement, I finally inherited 51% of the company's shares and became the new chairman of Sanxin Company.
After becoming the chairman, I promoted a lot of newcomers, but my work was a lot free, except for occasionally doing product experiment reports, doing business personnel inventory, many times, I am a free person.
For a long time, I have almost become a leisure person with nothing to do, and I can even be like Mr. Chen at the beginning, not leaving the house all day long, and I can still sit on the dividend profits brought by the rising tide of shares.
Because of the comfort and leisure of life, sometimes, I even have hallucinations, thinking that time has gone back to many years ago, back to the time when I didn't have a job and only two people with Xueqi, and I was so happy during that time.
In the days when Xueqi's condition deteriorated, I even dreamed of it, wasn't this the kind of life I longed for?
Now, the dream has come true.
It was then that I finally understood the true meaning of life.
Life is a dream, and you never know what will happen to you in the next moment.
Sometimes you think that you have achieved supreme happiness in a dream, and when you wake up, you find that you have nothing, you are just having a sweet dream.
And sometimes, when you're cornered and desperate, you wake up crying only to find out that it's just a mischievous nightmare.
When you wake up from a nightmare, you will find that the real life is the other side of the nightmare.
And for me, the nightmare is a thing of the past.
Of course, dreams in life are not always dreams. For me, dreams can never be predicted.
Just two months after I inherited the company's shares, I got the last news about Tang Mengyan.
That evening, I was reading the newspaper in the living room, and Xue Qi was eating in front of the sofa while watching TV.
Hearing Xueqi's words, I put down the newspaper in confusion and looked at the TV, only to find that the TV was doing an interview about working outside, and the female reporter with short hair and glasses happened to find a couple of passers-by and asked them about their work.
What surprised me a little was that the man interviewed by the reporter actually looked three points like me, but he looked a year or two younger than me.
However, what made me even more unbelievable was that the girlfriend with the man who looked like me was actually the girl I would never forget.
Tang Mengyan, just in front of the TV, held her beloved boyfriend's hand, smiled together in the face of the reporter's interview, telling about the hard work of working in the field and the kindness of her boyfriend to her.
At that moment, I only felt like I was deep in the thunder, but there was a kind of abruptness like a stone sinking into the sea.
It was a complete relief.
At that moment, I felt unspeakable in my heart, was it regretful, was it uncomfortable, or was it a long sigh?
I can't tell you what it tastes like.
If I had to name that taste, I would only call it once.
Because the interview was only a few dozen seconds, Tang Mengyan quickly left the camera.
But the scene in front of the TV is forever imprinted in my heart.
I know I'll never forget it.
But that doesn't mean jealousy or remorse, but some kind of relief and relief.
Tang Mengyan didn't lie to me, she did have a new life.
At that moment, looking at the TV that had been transferred, I was stunned, but I could only express indescribable happiness in my heart.
Finally, I took out my phone, rummaged through the messages one by one, and finally found the text message that started with "Boss", and gently pressed the "DELETE" button.
"Yan Yan, I wish you happiness. ”
While pressing the DELETE button, I blessed myself in my heart.
That night, the wind and rain were like the eve of a nightmare, and I was standing on the balcony on the third floor with Xueqi, feeling the oncoming raindrops and looking at the wonders of the world where lightning was intertwined in the sky.
Looking at the lightning that swept across the sky, and the torrential rain that swept the land, I don't know why, I suddenly had some indescribable excitement and enthusiasm in my heart.
At that moment, I went crazy, I ran to the railing, and in the face of the electric rain in the sky, I suddenly put my hands into a horn and shouted into the night sky of the city:
"Qiqi, Papa loves you!!Papa likes you so much!! Papa will always be with you!!!"
Electricity and light are intertwined, the rain does not stop, and the thunder rumbles.
Seeing my actions, Xue Qi was also shocked by me, but soon, she also ran to my side, across the railing, facing the raindrops in the sky, tore open her loud and crisp little voice and shouted with me:
"Papa, I love you too! Qiqi wants to be with you! forever!"
"I love you!"
"I love you too!!"
"Forever ......"
“……”
The sound and shout, like the purple lightning and green thunder blooming in the night sky, spread between heaven and earth, and spread to the end of the universe with the help of the never-ending light.
Until the end of time and space, there is no end.
That night, in the midst of the storm, Xueqi and I finally got rid of the bitterness and pain of the past 12 years, eliminated all the gloom in our lives, and broke the ice in our lives.
We were really happy that night.
When I woke up in the morning, I looked out the window at the sun-drenched sky and the earth.
I laughed.
Because I know that the end of the world is already yesterday.
And today, it is a new beginning.
……
……
And the story of me and Xueqi continues.
One day, I was watching TV at home, and Xue Qi suddenly rushed out of the toilet in a hurry, with joy and excitement on her face.
"papa!papa!" Xue Qi called me eagerly, her face uncontrollable with excitement.
"What's the matter, Qiqi?"
"Papa, I have blood in my urine...... Is it menstruation?" Xue Qi said loudly, revealing a white crescent moon.
Hearing this, I was stunned, and the remote control in my hand fell on the head of the bed.
The brain went blank.
For a while, I couldn't speak, and I didn't know what to say.
With a bit of innocence, a bit of expectation, and a little shyness, Xue Qi showed a bright smile to me.
She is no longer the stupid girl who doesn't know anything about sex and is stupid enough to show her little ** to other boys.
But in front of me, her stupidity was never reserved.
"Papa, you said that girls can get pregnant when they menstruate, papa, can I be your bride and give you a baby?"
“papa?”
“papa!”
“……”
……
Maybe you can't hear it
Prayer for the sound of the wind
But you can't forget it
A dance of snow and flowers
In the most beautiful season
The breath of the sun is pulsing
Like the heartbeat of spring
Flew over the reckless forest
Breaking the boundaries between the sky and the sea
Come to your side
Just to see you
Maybe you don't know
How many old dreams
And you always want to look
Laughter from childhood
In the purest of years
Recorded flowering season after the rain
It's like the plucking of the wind
Crossed the mighty Mirror Lake
The curtain of the earth and the rainbow was lifted
Stop in your heart
Pull at your heartstrings
But the wind is always silent
Gently sprinkle the dream
Wait until the rain is over and the sky clears
It's you on the other side of the sky
On the other side is me
If the spring flowers no longer wither
Whether it's our story
and will no longer be submerged
It's like a legend in a fairy tale
Over and over again
Retelling
……
Whether it is for me or for Xue Qi, the past 12 years, whether bizarre or twists and turns, are just a few of the legendary stories of our lives.
And the story of me and Xueqi is just a small story among thousands of stories in this world.
After all, people are still alive, time is still passing, and the story will continue forever.
What awaits me and Xueqi in the future, I don't know, but I think that whether it is a storm or a harsh winter, there will always be a day when flowers bloom and rainbows bloom and ice and snow are released.
As God once said:
"Let there be light. ”
There is a long night, and there will be a dawn.
There is a cold winter, and it will return to spring.
If there is a storm, it will appear as a rainbow.
If there is a nightmare, it will wake up.
Because I have nothing to do at work, I take the time to record the legendary stories of me and Xueqi in the past 12 years in my notebook. I was twenty-eight years old the year I started writing. Of course, for me now, the time to write this story is also in the past.
Because now, I am 36 years old and a man with a successful career. And the final result of me and Xueqi will also reveal the mystery at the end of this story.
