On the first day of February, it was cloudy and windy.

Xie Ling's ankle has been completely healed after several tosses, and he has nothing to do at home. A few days ago, Zhu Zhu couldn't bear the boredom and ran over, and Hu Tiehua, who was originally instructed by Chu Liuxiang to "take care of Zhu Zhu secretly", naturally also came over.

He and Lu Xiaofeng gambled from the dinner table to the dinner table, losing more and winning less, but they were persistent and did not give up. Xie Ling was simply touched by this spirit.

Hu Tiehua was also very satisfied with the food she cooked, and fell in love with it after eating it a few times, and immediately encouraged Zhu to stop eating more.

Although Zhu Zhu usually looks too lazy to deal with most people, he is not stupid at all, he has long guessed that this is the person Chu Liuxiang stayed here to protect him, originally he hated that someone followed him like this, but he and Hu Tiehua were really in love with each other in the "eating", and in the end they didn't bother to bother with him.

Xie Ling steamed too many pastries today and couldn't finish them, so Lu Xiaofeng volunteered to help her send some to Ximen Medical Center.

Xie Xing immediately laughed at him for not dying on Qiqi, but it's a pity, in the eyes of the world, there is only that bad-tempered Simon Blowing Snow.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't talk to him, took the food box packed by Xie Ling and went out.

When I went out, I brought back the news that "Chongqi is dead".

He said it was true, not a joke at all, and the sadness in his eyes couldn't be faked.

But Xie Ling still couldn't believe it.

"How could it be ......?"

Hearing the tremor in her voice, Lu Xiaofeng shook his head seriously again, and when he spoke again, his voice was lower than before, "I...... I saw the coffin. ”

He still carried the empty food box in his hand.

Xie Ling almost couldn't stand, and his nails pinched his palms hard for a while before he came to his senses, "Yes...... What's going on? ”

"Dr. Simon said that she was infected with a cold and high fever that did not go away, and she was already in poor health, so she could not survive it."

Chongqi is indeed extremely cold-chilling, she knows this.

After sixteen years, Xie Ling has always known the fact that the medical level here is still relatively backward, but hearing the death of a flower-like little girl who was still coquettish with her not long ago still shocked and saddened.

She thinks that her relationship with Chongqi is worse than that of the children in this house, but this sudden death is still too difficult for her to accept.

From being rescued by Hua Xiyun six years ago and starting to work in the hospital to today, she has seen a lot of deaths. But man is still a selfish animal, and he is also dead, and when a person with whom he has a deeper relationship with himself dies, the words that have been used to comfort the family of the deceased seem ridiculous.

The people in the room who heard the news were all silent and didn't know how to speak, and finally Jiang Xiaoyu sighed and asked his apprentice, "That girl...... When did you go? ”

"Say it's this morning." Lu Xiaofeng's voice was also a little hoarse, "Doctor Ximen said...... She liked her sister very much when she was alive, if your sister is not too troublesome, she will go for a walk. ”

Xie Ling was still trying to restrain the tears in his eyes from dripping instantly, and when he spoke again, he could barely say a complete sentence, so he could only cover his face and nod.

Except for Hu Tiehua, the people in the house are all people who have been with Chongqi for a long or short time, and naturally none of them are missing in the matter of sending her off for the last ride.

Xie Ling finally stopped his tears, and when he was about to pass, he raised his eyes and saw a figure standing in the courtyard after a long month.

The man was still wearing a blue shirt, but he was more dusty than when he first saw him, but he did not hide his spirit, and when his eyes touched their group, he seemed to be puzzled, "What happened?" ”

It was still Jiang Xiaoyu who opened his mouth, "The girl from the Ximen Divine Doctor's house has gone, let's go over and have a look." ”

In fact, with Jiang Xiaoyu's identity, there was no need for this, but at the beginning of Chu Liuxiang's request, Xie Ling and his apprentice were absolutely going to go, so he had to follow it so reasonably.

Chu Liuxiang naturally remembered the girl in her mouth, although she had only eaten at a table, he could still remember that Chongqi was a beautiful little girl who loved to laugh.

The most important thing is that he is younger than Xie Xing and Lu Xiaofeng.

Such a young girl, she actually said she would go.

No wonder Xie Ling couldn't stop crying in front of so many people.

"Since Xiang Shuai has returned, the previous incident is about ......" Xie Ling rubbed his eyes, "No matter what, I...... I'll have to make a trip. ”

Chu Liuxiang knew what she wanted to say, and he also knew her insistence, in fact, he didn't intend to stop her from going to the medical hall, so he immediately turned sideways and moved out of the way, and said softly, "If Miss Xie doesn't mind, let's go over together." ”

The door of the medical hall was closed, and Xie Ling knocked for a while before waiting for the white-clothed West Gate to blow snow to open the door.

Ximen Fuxue, who was standing in front of her, pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were as calm as an ancient well, and he didn't reveal a trace of affection until he opened his mouth to call her.

He called Xie Ling to his sister in a dumb voice.

There was no mercy on his face, but it seemed that he had isolated everyone from him, and he couldn't get any closer.

"Take me, go see her." Xie Ling closed his eyes, and for the first time, he reached out and patted Ximen Fuxue's shoulder as if he was doing to Xie Xing, Lu Xiaofeng, and Zhu Zhu.

Regardless of whether this still thin shoulder can bear the name of the sword god in the future or something else, she only knows that at this moment, Ximen Blowing Snow is like a string that tightens itself to the tightest, and he may not need others to loosen him and he will slowly recover, after all, he is Ximen Blowing Snow, but she still can't bear it.

Doctor Simon's face was also very bad, standing in front of the hall and frowning, he raised his eyes slightly when he saw her coming, and his voice was very deep, "Ah Ling is here." ”

Chongqi's coffin was behind him, not yet closed.

Xie Ling tried to suppress his crying with every step he took, but even though he didn't make any sound, tears kept rolling down his eyes.

The little girl lying in it had a very peaceful expression, red lips and white skin, as if she had just slept quietly, and she was so well-behaved.

"She's not in good health, I'm confined in the hospital and can't go out, and I don't know a few people, but I'm kind to you, you can come and see her, she should be happy."

Chu Liuxiang stood behind Xie Ling, watching her cover her mouth and sobbing in a low voice, tears sliding down her fingers all the way to the ground, making a snapping sound. He lowered his head and took out the handkerchief he had lent her last time from his bosom, but he did not hand it over, but took it in his own hand to wipe away the tears from her face.

Although it is about impossible to wipe it off at this moment.

Xie Ling remembered that when he made pastries for Chongqi here last time, he was still thinking that it was not clear when the case would be resolved, so it was rare to see Chongqi a little more.

I didn't expect that to be the last time.

"Thank you, girl, for your condolences."

Xie Ling shook his head and nodded, and said in a fragmented sentence: "She is talented, talented...... So small. ”

Lu Xiaofeng and Xie Xing's eyes were also very red, although they didn't cry.

Chu Liuxiang sighed silently, reached out and patted Xie Ling's back to give her a good breath, and then glanced at Chongqi lying in the coffin, and couldn't help but think of his own conjecture when he saw this little girl for the first time.

…… Did you guess wrong?

Probably sensing the doubt in his eyes, Dr. Simon, who was standing on the side, also glanced at him.

And he looked at him and thought about it seriously, but in the end he didn't ask anything.

Xie Ling was really sad, he didn't even eat dinner after returning from the hospital, and kept locking himself in the kitchen and refusing to come out.

Lu Xiaofeng and Xie Xing wanted to persuade her, but when they went in and saw her steaming Chongqi's favorite plum blossom cake, they were silent again. Both of them also remember when they first saw Ximen Blowing Snow, at that time, Lu Xiaofeng was ten thousand blind to Ximen Blowing Snow, and Xie Xing at that time didn't know who he was for when he came to his house late to ask for plum blossom cakes.

As Xie Ling said, she is so young.

Even if everyone knew the fact that she was frail and sickly from the beginning, they never thought that she would only live to this age in the end.

"Let your sister vent for a while." Chu Liuxiang stopped Xie Xing, who wanted to go into the kitchen again, glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu's master and apprentice who was sitting at the table not far away, and said, "I have something to do and I have to go first, you can go in again in an hour to see your sister, and persuade her to rest early." ”

Xie Xing answered, and didn't ask him what to do, "I know." ”

Chu Liuxiang reached out and touched his head, "Don't think about it, I'll come back as much as I can." ”

He said that it was all the time, but when he really came back, it was already early in the morning, and the light in Xie Xing's room had been turned off, and he thought that Xie Ling should also sleep, but when he passed through the roof of Xie's house, he realized that the light was still lit in the kitchen.

Xie Ling is still there.

The plum blossom cake was already cold, but she was still standing in front of the mold, stunned and silent, and only blinked once for a long time. I don't cry anymore, but the sadness in my eyes still makes people can't help but soften their hearts when they see it.

Chu Liuxiang didn't deliberately slow down, but she didn't care either, and she didn't look back.

It was the dead of night, and the fire that had been extinguished was silent, and he heard himself speak, "Miss Xie." ”

Xie Ling suddenly retracted his mind and turned to look at him, "You...... What's wrong with it? ”

"Naturally, I'm worried about Miss Xie." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "I understand Miss Xie's feelings, but no matter how sad she is, it can't be used, isn't it?" ”

Chu Liuxiang naturally sees these very thoroughly, but she is a layman, and in her two lifetimes combined, she is also close to the age of confusion, but she still can't be light.

"What's more, Ah Xing is worried about you." Chu Liuxiang said again.

“…… I'm fine. She was just so sad, she hadn't shed so many tears in a day until now, but she didn't seem to have really vented at all, and when she returned to the kitchen at home, she couldn't help but think of Chongqi when she was coquettish with her.

"It's over, Miss Xie should go back to her room and sleep." Chu Liuxiang paused and added, "Even if you don't sleep, it's good to close your eyes and lie down." ”

In fact, he didn't say that Xie Ling really didn't realize that the time had passed, and she really didn't feel sleepy, but she also knew that Chu Liuxiang was doing it for her good, so she had to nod, "Okay." ”

Chu Liuxiang finally showed a slight smile when she saw her respond, "I know that Miss Xie likes that little girl very much, although today's parting is sad, but maybe I will see you again in the future." ”

Xie Ling didn't think much about it, just thought that he was trying to comfort himself.

After all, after crossing over, she couldn't help but not believe the statements of those past and present lives.

But Chu Liuxiang said again, "I won't lie to you." ”
