13. Chapter XIII
Su Wen stepped forward quickly, raised his hand to caress his face, and his fingertips were full of distress.
If it weren't for the familiarity she once had, how could she believe that the person in front of her was Li Dongshang! He was as thin as a branch that could be blown off by the wind at any moment, so tall that he shrunk weakly in his clothes, as if he could not even support the weight of his clothes, and would be crushed at any moment.
Su Wen raised her thumb and slid it on his cheek, only feeling the thin bones, she withdrew her hand and wiped her tears, and whispered, "Don't stand here, let's go, let's go in." ”
Li Dongshang nodded, wiped his tears and led her into the house, although he had already expected Jiang Qiulan's tragic situation, Su Wen was still stunned when he saw it with his own eyes.
Jiang Qiulan was lying on the bed, her hair was scattered, her face was pale and gray, the corners of her eyes were densely covered with fine lines, and her eyes had a layer of turbid darkness.
Su Wen walked over quickly, bent down and called her in a low voice: "Auntie, I'm Wen Wen." ”
Jiang Qiulan's eyes lit up, and the brilliance in her eyes quickly dimmed again.
Li Dongshang walked up to her, his face was gloomy, and he said softly: "You know everything about our family, she has been in a bad mood." ”
Su Wen didn't speak, the nurse who was taking care of her looked up at her, lowered her head and continued to help Jiang Qiulan wipe her hands, her five fingers grabbed hard, Jiang Qiulan's fingers trembled, and her knuckles turned white.
Su Wen twisted her eyebrows, walked over and pulled her hand away, and then tested the water temperature, anger flashed in her eyes, she stared at the nurse and asked, "The water is already cold, why don't you change it?" ”
The nurse was stunned for a moment, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she explained casually: "It's just a little cold, and it's not a big deal." ”
Su Wen directly called the complaint, the nurse panicked, and hurriedly admitted her mistake to Su Wen, Su Wen said expressionlessly: "Then go and call your leader, I want to change a nurse who is a big deal in everything." ”
The nurse begged a few more words, Su Wen was very insistent, she had to ask the head nurse to come over, the head nurse was a woman in her forties, she didn't say a word, she criticized the nurse in person, and replaced an older nurse to take care of her.
The nurse's name is Zhou Yan, she is very sincere, and she is also very attentive to taking care of Jiang Qiulan, Su Wen is still not at ease, so she took the initiative to consult the nurse and learn to take care of her personally.
Li Dongshang originally ran at both ends of the hospital and school every day, and he was already exhausted, Su Wen's arrival seemed to give him support, obviously he was still very tired, but the heaviness in his heart was relieved a lot, and life seemed to be looking forward to it.
In the afternoon, he originally planned to ask for leave, but Su Wen said that he couldn't help, let him go back to class, and she would call him if there was something, and he was always relieved to Su Wen, and returned to school.
Su Wen and Zhou Yan helped Jiang Qiulan wash her hair together, Zhou Yan supported people, Su Wen helped Jiang Qiulan blow her hair and braided it carefully, but it was just a little pick-up, but it looked like a world of difference.
Su Wen smoothed Shunjiang Qiulan's hair, suddenly hugged her, and said softly: "Auntie, you are still as beautiful as before, and I will help you tie your hair every day in the future, okay?" ”
Jiang Qiulan blinked her eyes, and then shed tears, dripping on Su Wen's wrist.
Su Wen's face was against her cheek, her eyes were red, but she laughed, she held one of Jiang Qiulan's hands, and said softly: "Auntie, in fact, the matter has passed, it is you who can't let go, people who don't love you won't feel distressed, people who love you are distressed, it's Dongshang, he hopes you are good, we all want you to be well." ”
Jiang Qiulan closed her eyes and just cried.
She also wanted to be well, but now that she was paralyzed in bed like this, life was just a burden, and she didn't want to be a drag on Dongshang, making him hover between hope and despair.
"I know you want to be good too, Auntie, I know you're scared, but how can we succeed if we don't try? Auntie, you believe me once, we work hard, we will definitely be fine, the doctor said, as long as the body recovers and then have another operation, Auntie, let's try it once, okay? ”
Jiang Qiulan pressed against her face and nodded lightly.
Su Wen laughed suddenly, Zhou Yan felt that this girl was very beautiful when she smiled, it was a beauty she had never seen before, warm and soft, but with tenacity.
In the evening, Li Dongshang rushed back from school, and when he saw Jiang Qiulan's appearance, tears were falling a little, he hurriedly turned away, and Su Wen walked out of the bathroom with a basin of water.
"You're back, I ordered takeout, it's still hot, you can eat it quickly."
Su Wen put the basin on the cabinet, wrung the warm towel, and carefully helped Jiang Qiulan wipe her face, Jiang Qiulan blinked her eyes, and she laughed, smiling softly and softly, as soft as the sunshine in the morning.
"Auntie, I'll just say, a good mood will only get better, just now the doctor came to check you and said that you are recovering very well."
In fact, she begged the doctor to come over and comforted Jiang Qiulan with words, her illness did not improve in the slightest, but this made her happy, and the doctor said that her mood had a great impact on her illness.
Li Dongshang sat at the table and looked at them, obviously it had nothing to do with each other, but he was as warm as a mother and daughter, he lowered his head, for the first time in so many days, he felt hungry, and felt that the food was fragrant.
After eating, coaxing Jiang Qiulan to fall asleep, the two of them had time to talk, Li Dongshang looked at Su Wen and stopped, Su Wen turned around and said with a smile: "Aunt Zhou, let's go out for a while, please take care of it." ”
"Go ahead, I'm here, I'll call you if there's something."
Su Wen nodded, and the two walked downstairs, Li Dongshang was very familiar with this place, and took her to the leisure area to find a bench, it had just rained, and it was wet everywhere, and the bench still had undried rain, and he wiped it clean with his sleeves.
Su Wen stared at his movements, and his heart was wrapped in a warmth, soft and gentle.
"Alright, sit down."
The two sat on the bench, and Su Wen was a little nervous at this time, so that he had time to think about his shocking worldly actions.
She shook her hand vigorously and said with a smile: "I didn't tell Sù Rourou that I came, she will definitely misunderstand, I'll call her and ask her to fly over quickly." ”
Such a big thing can't help but tell Su Rou.
She took out her mobile phone to make a call, but her hand was held down, Li Dongshang held her hand and pleaded: "Wen Wen, don't call her, please." ”
Su Wen bit her lip and asked in a low voice, "Did you quarrel?" Rourou is a child's temper, you let her more, in fact, she is very sensible. ”
Li Dongshang pressed his thumb on the back of her hand and whispered: "I broke up with her, Wen Wen, I never liked her, I was just seeking justice for me." ”
He didn't say any more, the words 'like you', he didn't have the courage or qualification to say to her for the time being, but from the moment she appeared in front of him, he knew that he would never let go again.
Su Wen didn't ask any more, she took a plane for more than ten hours and took care of Jiang Qiulan for another day, she was really tired.
Li Dongshang turned his head, her face was under the light, with a moonlight-like luster, moving but ethereal, as if it would dissipate at any time, he couldn't help but clench his hands.
"When will you go back?"
He was very reluctant, she was like his support, but Jiang Qiulan was his responsibility, not hers, and she shouldn't accompany him to bear it.
"Me? I'm not in a hurry. ”
Su Wen sighed and said embarrassedly, "I...... I didn't get good grades, I dropped out of school, my mom scolded me, I was going to go out for a walk, just in time for a trip. ”
"Drop out?"
Li Dongshang wrinkled his eyebrows, he remembered that her grades had always been very good.
Su Wen nodded and said in a low voice: "Actually, I have been studying hard, and when I get to college, my brain is not enough, my grades always can't keep up, and my grades are hanging one subject after another, maybe I am not the material for reading, it is better to drop out of school and find something to do, and my father agreed." ”
Li Dongshang touched her head, Su Wen looked up at him, he didn't care much about his own business, he only smiled and said: "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, Auntie loves me so much, I am reluctant to leave." ”
"Wenwen, thank you."
Li Dongshang's voice was hoarse, leaned over her, leaned his head on her shoulder, and held her hand hard, interlocking his fingers. There was a faint fragrance on her body, warm, like the sun, shining on the bottom of his heart, making his fragility powerless to hide.
He said: "Wen Wen, I was very scared, the doctor said that my mother was very sick, and the operation was very risky, if the operation failed, if she died, what should I do?" ”
Su Wen clenched his hand hard, and said seriously: "Dongshang, it is impossible for us to predict every step we will take in the future, there will always be countless variables in the future, what we should do is to try to do what we can at the moment, you can't predict the future of your aunt, but you can take care of her, take care of yourself, hello, she will be happy, this is the only thing you can do for her and the most important thing to do." ”
Without waiting for him to answer, Su Wen untied the pendant from his neck, it was a star carved from crystal, which she had worn around her neck since she was a child, and she put the star in his hand.
"When I was born, there was a master who helped me tell my fortune, and I was rich and prosperous all my life, and gave me this star, which is a real lucky star, and now I transfer my luck to you, and you and your aunt will be safe."
Li Dongshang clenched his hands, obviously it was a mysterious and mysterious word, but it warmed him, he hung the pendant on his chest, and said to himself at him: "It will be safe." ”
Su Wen calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, Li Dongshang didn't go to class, he bought breakfast early in the morning, and then helped Jiang Qiulan wash her face and wipe her hands, Jiang Qiulan's state was much better, at least she no longer cried all day.
Su Wen was originally going to call Su Rou, and she should let Su Rou know about it anyway, but Li Dongshang stopped her, saying that Jiang Qiulan didn't like Su Rou and didn't want her to be in a bad mood, Su Wen didn't insist anymore, and now Jiang Qiulan is the most important.
After breakfast, Su Wen sat on the edge of the bed and chatted with Jiang Qiulan, Li Dongshang sat on the sofa in a daze, when suddenly the mobile phone rang, he glanced at the number, his face changed, and he walked out of the door with his eyebrows twisted.
Su Wen's eyes rolled a few times to look at Jiang Qiulan, Jiang Qiulan blinked, so she got up and walked to the door-
“Dropout? Teacher,mymotherisreallyill……”
Li Dongshang explained anxiously, and soon hung up the phone on the other end, he stood in place for a while, and when he turned around, he saw Su Wen, and hurriedly explained with a smile, "My classmate called, I have a question to ask." ”
"I heard, Dongshang, why do you want to drop out?"
Li Dongshang's smile froze, and the bitterness in his heart opened.
Jiang Qiulan is seriously ill, he has to take care of it, he can't take care of his homework at all, he basically hasn't gone to class much, the teacher has called several times, this time it is a direct warning, if he skips class again, he will be notified to drop out.
It's not a big deal for him to drop out of school if he thinks about dropping out.
"Don't mess around, I said that it's good for my aunt to take care of me, you can go to class with peace of mind, and you don't need two people to take care of you here."
"It's really fine, I'll apply for a suspension of study when I go back, and it'll be fine."
Su Wen persuaded him not to listen, he was a little anxious, bit his lip and whispered to threaten him, "You don't go...... If you don't go, I'll sue Aunt Sù......"
Li Dongshang was stunned for a moment, Su Wen had never threatened others so much since he was a child, he blushed suddenly, stretched out his hand to push him, and looked very inward, "Go quickly, otherwise I will really say it." ”
Li Dongshang couldn't help laughing, Su Wen was a little embarrassed, he raised his hand to touch her head, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go get the schoolbag." ”
Su Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Dongshang was forced to go to school.
