30. New Decisions

How many years ago did you kiss for the first time?

Scenes from the past flashed through his mind, and Lin Li thought about the taste of the first kiss: sweet and sour wine, Rhine Riesling.

Knowing that she shouldn't compare, she couldn't help but make a comparison.

Xiao Huai doesn't drink alcohol, and clears his mouth with green tea after dinner tonight, leaving a fragrant and sweet taste between his lips and teeth. His breath was shallow, like a breeze brushing her delicate cheeks, evoking a tingling sensation that made her heart ripple with it.

The feelings paid for the old love in those years are like a rose that has bloomed alone, and finally quietly fades and withers at this moment.

Life is wonderful. She lost her ex, and because of her ex, she unexpectedly met Xiao Huai.

The latter is no longer a cover character, not just a perfectly contoured side face, but actually appears in front of her, presents her with a coat with body temperature, and says in a subtle and beautiful voice: "Are you okay?" ”

Love is in full swing, but it ushers in a new situation.

She knows better than anyone that no matter how high-end the label put on Xiao Huai is, he does not forget his true self and is always a man with a gentle temperament. Even in the face of humble and embarrassed strangers, he will give respect.

So, it shouldn't be a pastime for him to kiss her now, right?

All kinds of tenderness welled up in her heart, and she quietly closed her eyes and responded to him shyly and gently.

Delicate tossing and turning, slight rubbing, she even plucked up the courage to trace his lip line with the tip of her tongue...... The soft and sweet kiss lingered, turning into a wordless invitation.

He kissed her deeper, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and hugged her tightly and pressed it into his arms.

Grinding.

Demand.

Entanglement.

According to.

The tantalizing aroma of chocolate in her mouth intertwined with the light tea aroma on his lips and tongue. The two hugged each other on the long silent street of the winter night, immersed in such a kiss, indulged in wantonness, and forgot themselves.

The light of the street lamp is a warm orange, and his and her shadows are indistinguishable from each other, and the picture looks extremely warm.

I don't know who moved his steps first, and the two of them walked forward, hugging all the way, lips to lips inseparable.

It didn't matter how he got to the old bungalow or how he got up the steps, he pressed her against the door, let go of his thin waist with one hand, went up his arm to her neck, held the back of his head and slowly leaned towards him, deepening the kissing posture, and groping his other hand for the zipper of her small bag.

"Whew-" The sound of a zipper opening sounded extremely ambiguous and demagogic in the silence of the night.

He easily found the key to the door.

The phone in her pocket rang suddenly.

Lin Li withdrew his lips, his head resting on Xiao Huai's shoulder, breathing rapidly.

Her jaw and lips felt wooden, and she slowed down for a moment, and instead of answering the phone immediately, she looked up into his eyes.

A pair of eyes drooped slightly, looking misty and deep against the background of the night. The handsome face was lowered, as if there was a thin layer of shyness, how did this expression look like the same person as the act of trying to enter the house just now?

The mobile phone was still ringing, and Lin Li looked at the number, which was actually the landline of the nurse on duty in the hospital.

She didn't know anything was wrong until she got on the phone.

Some people used high leverage to speculate in stocks, and after being liquidated, they were saddled with huge debts, and they couldn't think of lighting gas canisters in residential buildings for a while, which affected the residents of an entire building.

Lin Li hung up the phone and said to Xiao Huai without delay: "You go home to rest first, and I will rush to the hospital to deal with the emergency." ”

Xiao Huai glanced at the key in his palm, but said, "I'll go too." ”

His voice regained his usual composure, unadulterated by any selfish desires. She then changed her mind, reminding, "The emergency room isn't a dinner party, and I probably won't have time to pay attention to you." ”

"It's okay."

Compared with ordinary outpatient clinics, the emergency department is often faced with unpredictable patients and excited family members, and the scene is often very worrying, not to mention that the explosion of a gas tank in the early hours of tonight has caused many people to be injured, and the place has long been overcrowded.

Half an hour earlier, the deputy mayor had called the director of the hospital and asked that none of the transferred wounded should be allowed to die. The director did not dare to be careless, and urgently summoned doctors from the emergency department, burn department, otolaryngology department, intensive care department and other departments to treat the injured residents.

As soon as Lin Li came, he was pulled into the operating room by the head nurse and acted as an assistant, cooperating with the chief surgeon to rescue an elderly man with extensive burns and severe respiratory burns.

The surgical process is complicated, and a series of measures such as anti-shock, oxygen delivery, incision of the air duct, and removal of foreign bodies will last for more than six hours.

Xiao Huai waited outside the operating room for just 20 minutes, and the number of critically ill patients in urgent need of surgery doubled.

In the chaos, a husband rushed into the hall with his wife who had been in a car accident and shouted "help". The doctor on duty carried the person to the examination room and found that the clothes on her lower limbs were soaked with blood, but the wounds were no longer bleeding. It turned out that the major artery in her leg had been cut by a sharp object, and the blood had long since been drained, and the person had long since died.

The doctor said "send people to the morgue" out of duty, and the husband sat on the ground at the door of the emergency room, not crying, and the whole person was dumbfounded.

Xiao Huai couldn't bear to look at it anymore and walked outside to breathe. It wasn't until the emergency hall was less crowded and busy that he returned to the acute care area and sat quietly in a chair outside the operating room.

Perhaps it was on such an occasion that intuitively displayed the separation of life, old age, sickness and death, love and hate, that he realized more clearly that life is short, and every minute and every second is extremely important.

Looking at the time, although he had been separated from Lin Li for less than a few hours, he began to miss her again.

I miss her smile, her voice, her kisses, sweet and long kisses......

In the end, he made a deliberate decision.

*

At six o'clock in the morning, less than two hours before Xiao Huai's flight took off, the door of the emergency operating room finally opened.

Xiao Huai stayed awake all night, watching the patient being pushed out, and Lin Li appeared at the door wearing a green disinfectant suit.

Her face was covered by a mask, except for her large eyes, which looked tired in the light.

She didn't notice his deposit, and explained the postoperative matters to the nurse next to her: "Remember to suctioning regularly, be sure to prevent the external tube from coming out, and put the tracheal cannula with the same name in the cabinet next to the bed......"

The gushing advice did not make Xiao Huai impatient, he stared at her, his brows gradually stretched, his thin lips unconsciously raised some arcs, and the smile contained extraordinarily warm feelings.

She didn't look up, not knowing that his gaze had been on her side for long, and turned back into the operating room and closed the door.

After a while, Lin Li took off his surgical gown and walked out of the operating room.

Instead of finding Xiao Huai in the emergency hall, she went to the counter of the nurses' station to inquire and was told that a man suspected of being Xiao Huai had already taken a taxi and left.

Lin Li was deeply surprised. She turned away the interview with the reporter who was squatting in the hospital, hurriedly changed her clothes and ran out to find someone, but the person was gone.

It just so happened that the director of the hospital came over from the general ward, saw Lin Li standing next to the elevator, and greeted him: "Xiaolin, I received an email from you, and I don't have time to read it for the time being, so I'll talk about it when I have time." ”

Lin Li smiled reluctantly: "Dean early." ”

"The director of the emergency department just mentioned you, saying that you have a solid foundation and are decisive and precise." After he finished speaking, he took the elevator to the second floor.

The dean is stern and rarely praises people in person. Lin Fei was happy to hear these words, and then sighed in disappointment.

When you come, you go out in pairs, and when you go, you only have a single shadow. She tried to contact Xiao Huai, and more than a dozen calls were dialed out, but what she heard was always a cold prompt: "The number you dialed has been turned off." ”

Standing outside the old bungalow, she sighed again.

Remembering that he had taken the key, she looked at her feet, bent down with an inquiring mood, and lifted the carpet in front of the doorβ€”a bunch of keys lay quietly on the ground.

I couldn't wait to get home and search all over the living room, but I didn't see anything.

He left, without a word, he came as he said he would, and he said he would leave......

At this time, Lin Li's heart was congested, lying on the bed and tossing and turning, the first insomnia was not because of a dream of a car accident.

The phone on the bedside table rang suddenly, and she glanced at the screen expectantly, but her eyes dimmed again.

Guan Yi's voice poured out of the earpiece: "Miki, something is wrong!" ”

Something big can happen here. Lin Li didn't squeak, and buried his head in the quilt in a sullen manner.

"A stranger called me and wanted to book 'That Year 1936' on Valentine's Day, 14th of February. I asked him his last name, and he said, 'It's not for myself, it's for the boss.' The boss wants to have a candlelit dinner with Miss Lim Lin'. ”

Lin Li was startled and got out of the thick quilt: "Really? ”

"What am I lying to you for? Is this unfathomable boss Xiao Huai? But where did Xiao Huai find out that we were running a restaurant? Did you reveal that? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Oh, it's you! Where have you two got? Hand in hand? He obviously intends to confess on Valentine's Day and confirm the relationship with you. ”

Lin Li's eyes appeared in front of him and the picture of kissing Xiao Huai last night, and remembered that Valentine's Day was his birthday, his face was hot, and he coughed dryly: "Don't make a fool of yourself, what if it's not Xiao Huai?" Even if he chartered a restaurant, he might just want to have a meal. ”

"Xiao Huai doesn't go to eat somewhere else, but comes to our territory, not for you, but for the chef?" Guan Yi swept away the gloomy clouds and mist that had been in place for several days, and her tone was very joyful, "For your lifelong sexual happiness, I will prepare condoms in the restaurant." Durex Ultra Ultra Slim, like it? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Don't be shy, don't you like anything else? Dual-drive dual-shock massager to a shot? ”

Lin Li blushed all the way from his face to his neck: "Don't talk about this." Let me ask you a serious matter, Merrill Lynch is being sniped by large pharmaceutical companies? ”

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds: "It seems to be, but the company has no real evidence." ”

"Which company?"

"That, dad is awake, I'll go and accompany him, and we'll talk back later." Guan Yi hung up the phone after speaking.

Lin Li's heart was full of suspicion, remembering that a colleague in the pharmacy department inadvertently mentioned that he was about to terminate the procurement cooperation with Merrill Lynch and replace it with a well-known pharmaceutical company, so he opened the mobile phone browser and entered the keyword: Dongsheng.

There was hesitation on her face, and after a few moments, her finger slid over the "Search" button and clicked the X in the upper right corner.
