Chapter 24: Wait for Me

"What did you say?" I heard, but I asked anyway.

"You can't take care of Ah Ke and Xiaole, you haven't fulfilled your responsibilities as a father, and they will only suffer if they follow you. Tong Wangjun said.

"Why haven't I fulfilled my responsibilities as a father?" I disagreed, "Do you have to be rich and powerful to fulfill your responsibilities as a father?"

I was very angry, and Tong Wangjun's aggressiveness made me very tired.

"I didn't want you to be very rich, and I didn't force you to compare yourself with Ma Yun, I just hoped that you could be motivated, why don't you understand?" Tong Wangjun also seemed to have lost the patience to continue talking to me, "When Xiaole is well, you can give her to me, and Ake and I will also take it away." ”

"Do you have to force me like this?" I stared at Tong Wangjun.

"It's not me forcing you, the current situation is all caused by you, I gave you a chance, but you don't know how to cherish it, and you don't know how to grab it. Tong Wangjun glanced at me, turned his head, and stared into the distance, "You go back, Xiaole will leave it to me." ”

"Opportunity?" I laughed twice, almost gritting my teeth, eager to give Tong Wangjun a slap, "Do you expect me to become a white-collar worker in two or three days, with a monthly income of more than 10,000?"

"I didn't expect that, but I didn't see your efforts either. Tong Wangjun said.

"I'm not trying, I'm not trying to set up a stall?" I said.

"But what about the results of your efforts?" Tong Wangjun glanced at me sarcastically, "Is it to let Xiaole go to the hospital?

I stood up and glared at Tong Wangjun angrily, "Can you not be so messy and messing around, is Xiaole's illness something I want to cause?"

"What, you still want to beat me?" Tong Wangjun looked at me, "If you don't have the ability, you don't have the ability, and you will just be a little cruel to women, if you really don't want to cause the current situation, why do you still have nothing to achieve until now, and you will let Xiaole follow you to set up a stall?"

I looked at Tong Wangjun, took a deep breath, and suppressed the urge to beat: "Don't say any more, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself." ”

Tong Wangjun glanced at my forehead, sat opposite me, didn't speak again, stared at Chen Le, and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Wipe the blood off your dad's head. After a while, Tong Wangjun took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and gave it to Chen Ke.

I looked up at Tong Wangjun.

Tong Wangjun tilted his head and looked to the side.

"Dad, your head is down, I can't reach it. Chen Ke walked up to me, "You have a lot of blood on your head, I'll wipe it for you." ”

"It's okay, don't wipe it, you sit. I shook my head.

Chen Ke hung his hands, his eyes were red, and after a while, tears flowed out: "Dad, don't be angry with me, okay, I didn't mean to tell my mother, I'm just worried about you." ”

Chen Ke looked at me timidly again, holding tissues in both hands, stirring them into a ball, tears falling to the ground along his cheeks, and sobbing in a low voice.

"Dad isn't angry, Dad doesn't know that his head hurts, you can wipe it for me. I lowered my head and put my forehead in front of Chen Ke.

Chen Ke raised his hand and found that the napkins in his hand were all crumbled: "Dad, you wait, I'll wipe it for you immediately." ”

I took a napkin again, and Chen Ke carefully wiped my wound, wiping and blowing at the same time, and muttering that it didn't hurt or not.

Tong Wangjun stayed with me all the time, and waited for Chen Le to finish the infusion before leaving the hospital with me.

"My car is in the garage, you wait, I'll send you back. Tong Wangjun said to me.

"We'll go back by ourselves, you go back first. I refused.

"You paid for the medicine, do you still have the money to take the car back?" said Tongwangjun.

"You can walk back if you go, you don't have to worry about it. "I held Chen Ke, held Chen Le in one hand, and ignored Tong Wangjun.

"Do you still want Chen Le to catch a cold again?" Tong Wangjun said behind my back.

I paused, turned my head to look at her: "You send me back, aren't you afraid that Xu Heng will be in a hurry at home?"

"You don't have to worry about that. Tong Wangjun said, "You wait for me here, I'll come over immediately." ”

I stood there and waited for a while, Tong Wangjun drove over, I glanced at the license plate number, it was Xu Heng's car.

I'm a little panicked.

It's so late, Tong Wangjun actually drove Xu Heng's car over, and it seems that the two of them are really together.

Tong Wangjun drove very steadily, I didn't speak to him, Chen Ke sat next to me, holding my arm, the expression on his face was a little scared.

The car entered the community and went downstairs, after I got out of the car, Tong Wangjun called out to me: "You go back and think about it yourself, it's best to figure it out, Ah Ke and Xiaole follow you, what can you provide for them?"

"I'll give you three days, and if you haven't figured it out, I'll send you a lawyer's letter, and then you won't blame me. ”

After returning home, Chen Ke went to do his homework, I fed Chen Le some milk, but I couldn't sleep while lying on the bed.

"Dad, I don't want to go with Mom, I want to be with you. Chen Ke said to me.

"Don't worry, Daddy won't let her snatch you away. I patted Chen Ke on the back, "Dad yelled at you today, it's Dad's fault, Dad apologizes to you." ”

"It's okay, I don't blame Dad. Chen Ke told me.

The night light of the city shines through the windows, the messy furnishings, and the dilapidated furniture make my heart a little blocked, maybe Tong Wangjun is right, I really don't deserve to be Chen Ke and Chen Le's father, I didn't fulfill my father's duties.

After two more days of injections, Chen Le's hands were full of needles, and the delicate green tendons of his small hands were floating on the back of his hands.

But fortunately, the three-day infusion worked, Chen Le's condition improved a lot, and he slowly gained energy, no longer sickly, and drank milk after feeding.

"How are you thinking about it?" Tong Wangjun sent me a message on time.

I looked at Chen Le, who was crawling around on the bed, holding a blanket against his face, and was silent.

After a long time, Tong Wangjun sent me another message: "You wait for my lawyer's letter." ”

I put down my phone, hugged Chen Le, stood at the window, and watched the traffic in the distance, one by one brightly dressed figures, shuttling through the city buildings.

It's a world, a glamorous and confident world.

And under my feet is another world, helpless and low.

"Da Da ......" Chen Le grabbed the milk powder cap and patted me on the head.

Even toys are just bottle caps.

I packed up the things in the house and called Tong Wangjun.

"What, what else do you want to say?" Tong Wangjun said.

"Come over at night, I've already packed up my things, you can take Chen Ke and Chen Le back." I said.

On the other end of the phone, Tong Wangjun was silent for a while, as if he didn't expect me to agree: "Okay, it's good that you can figure it out." I'll go to your place at night after work, about half past six. ”

After hanging up the phone, I sat in front of the big bag and small bag, speechless for a long time, as if there was an astringent word plum planted in my heart, very sour.

"Dad, what are you doing with so many things?" Chen Ke came home from school, was stunned after entering the door, looked at the big bag and asked me.

"I'm waiting for your mother. I said.

"Oh. Chen Ke answered, put down his schoolbag, and didn't quite understand, "I'll go wash the dishes." ”

"Ake, come here. I called Chen Ke, "No need to wash the dishes, you can go to dinner when your mother comes over." ”

"Mom is coming over?" Chen Ke said excitedly, "Are we going to eat together?"

"Hmm. I nodded.

Chen Ke, Chen Le, Tong Wangjun, and maybe Xu Heng, they will eat together, I won't, I will continue to shrink in a corner of this city and continue my life.

Without Chen Ke and Chen Le, I may be more relaxed, but I am destined to be more lonely, just like the woman next door.

Tong Wangjun arrived as promised.

"Mom, are we going to eat? I'm hungry. Chen Ke threw himself into Tong Wangjun's arms.

"Well, Mommy will take you to dinner. Tong Wangjun nodded, then glanced at me, "Let's go together." ”

"I'll help you take your things down, Ake, carry your schoolbag and go down with your mother first. I walked up to Tong Wangjun and put Chen Le in my arms in her arms.

"There's nothing of value either, I'll buy it for Ke and Xiaole, so you don't have to take it. Tong Wangjun said to me.

I frowned and stared at her: "You go down and wait for me, I'll come down in a moment." ”
