CHAPTER XLII

Qiao Yun didn't give him any response, and after being silent for a long time, he directly cut off the phone.

……

Qiao Yun didn't know how long she would stay in the United States, she was afraid that Qiao Xiaoqiao would not be suitable for being alone in China, so she thought about it again and again and brought her over.

The ticket was set by Chen Chen on the same day, and the next morning, Qiao Ling did not go back with them but dealt with Zhang Mei's matter here.

On the day Qiao Yun left with her children, it was cloudy in City C.

The endless sky was full of black and oppressive dark clouds, and the weather was dull, and even the people were dull.

Her expression was rarely strict, and even when she looked at Qiao Xiaoqiao, her eyes did not have the gentleness of the past.

"Mom, where are we going?" Probably felt the difference between Qiao Yun, the little girl didn't speak all the way, but when they were waiting for the security check, they raised their heads and looked at Qiao Yun blankly and asked.

The little girl's hair was combed by Qiao Ling, a simple bud and a pink bow, which looked cute and energetic in the future, but Qiao Yun felt that such an aura was now very dazzling in her eyes.

Her slightly indifferent gaze made Qiao Xiaoqiao a little frightened, and her small body unconsciously ducked behind her, and Qiao Yun stared at her quietly for a long time.

"Baby!" Suddenly, she picked up the small bag in her hand, reached out to hold the child in her arms, and after a moment of silence, she picked her up again.

The child is four years old and a little heavy, but Qiao Yun still insists on holding Qiao Xiaoqiao and standing waiting for the security check.

I don't know why, Qiao Yun suddenly felt a pang in his heart just now, and it hurt a little, but he figured out a lot of things.

Seeing Qiao Xiaoqiao's bright smiling face, she would ask herself why Xiao Yezi was so painful, she had walked into a strange circle before, but now because of the child's frightened eyes, she suddenly realized.

None of this has anything to do with Little Joe!

Her little leaf may be leaving her soon, but she still has Qiao Xiaoqiao? She is also her child, she is the most innocent child.

It was already night when he arrived in the United States, Ye Chengyu did not come to pick up the plane, and it was Chen Chen who was in the crowd in the airport hall.

Qiao Yun saw him from afar, but she didn't walk over immediately, but slowly pulled the little girl through the crowd.

The people around us looked very different from us, their skin tones and hair, and the little girl's face was full of curiosity and excitement, and the sleepy and languid appearance of the plane before was completely gone.

Qiao Yun's mood was very complicated, looking at Qiao Xiaoqiao's smiling face and feeling healing, he felt heartache when he thought of Qiao Ye.

It was about Chen Chen who saw them, and immediately walked towards them and took the suitcase in Qiao Yun's hand.

"Mr. Ye is accompanying Miss Xiao in the hospital, and I will take you back to your residence first." Chen Chen opened the door of the car for her as he spoke, and after Qiao Yun sat down, he put his luggage and immediately got into the car.

Children are always full of curiosity and yearning for strange places, Qiao Xiaoqiao knows Chen Chen, in front of familiar people, the little girl does not seem very afraid of life, chattering all the way, Qiao Yun is a little depressed, and many questions about the little girl are just trying to answer, Chen Chen is very patient to answer one after another.

Outside the window, it was dark and oppressive, and the elevated shelf was decorated with lights very dazzling and beautiful, especially in the boundless night, it looked very bright.

This trip to New York may be a two-way trip for Qiao Xiaoqiao, but for Qiao Yun, it may be a one-way journey to sadness.

After putting away the luggage and coaxing Qiao Xiaoqiao, Qiao Yun followed Chen Chen to the hospital where Xiao Yezi lived.

The environment is quiet and luxurious, even at night, it looks graceful and luxurious.

Xiao Yezi lives alone in a VIP ward around the corner, she closes her eyes, and from a distance, it is a small lump, full of tubes, if it weren't for the slight sound of the machine, she would have thought that the person lying on the bed must be a dummy.

Qiao Yun's eyes were filled with tears in an instant, falling silently, and his heart hurt as if he had been cut by a knife.

She stood dumbfounded by the door, her legs like they were filled with lead, and she couldn't move at all.

"Why are you here?" Suddenly, a low male voice came from behind him, and Qiao Yun suddenly came back to his senses, stretched out his hand and wiped the tears on his face in a panic, but he didn't expect to wipe more and more.

"I, I-"

Before she could say the word okay, she was pulled into the room by Ye Chengyu.

Under the flickering light, Qiao Yun lowered his head, trying to hide the sad look on his face or the tears that had not yet been wiped away.

Ye Chengyu stood one step away from her, quietly watching her silently.

She didn't speak, and neither did he.

There was silence all around, and the air seemed to slowly condense at this moment.

After a long time, he sighed helplessly, stepped forward, hugged her thin body into his arms, his voice was gentle and a little tired, and said, "Don't be sad, I will do everything I can to save her." ā€

Qiao Yun didn't know what else she could say at this time, in fact, she had long known that Xiao Yezi might not be able to grow up happily, even if she knew this result in her heart, she still didn't want to face it, and hoped that there would be a better result.

"I—" As soon as the words came out, she couldn't stop crying.

Over the years, she has always felt that she is a strong person, even if she used to be very fragile, but after encountering those things that must make her grow strong, she has no time to be sad or to lament sadly, and now that she has taken off all the disguises on her body, she suddenly feels very tired and sad.

For many powerless things, even if you believe that man will win the day, you have to accept the bad facts.

"Don't be upset." Ye Chengyu rarely comforts people, the comforting words in his stomach are obviously barren, these days, he is also very uncomfortable, the pain in his heart is not much less than Qiao Yun.

"I know, I just... I'm just a little uncomfortable. Qiao Yun suppressed her voice and sobbed quietly, she fell into his arms and shivered, like a frightened little beast.

Ye Chengyu held her waist firmly, looked down at the top of her head, and for a while, raised his hand to pat the back of her hand, and gently smoothed her out.

"If you are sad, vent it, and I will accompany you."

……

At midnight, Qiao Yun finally got tired of crying and fell asleep. There is a separate room next to Qiao Ye's ward, Ye Chengyu has basically lived here for the past few days, and at this time, Qiao Yun is lying on the narrow single bed with his clothes.

He stood in front of the bed and stared quietly at her sleeping face for a long time, and finally moved his body and turned to walk towards the balcony.

Smoke, emitting a little fire in the boundless darkness.

He lit a cigarette between his slender fingers, but he didn't smoke it in a hurry, just quietly looked into the distance, in a daze.

Such a Ye Chengyu is rare, over the years, he is like a never-tired work machine, his brain is running all the time, in his dictionary, there is no failure, only no hard work, but now when facing Xiao Yezi's affairs, he is really full of pressure and frustration.

He probably really couldn't snatch the child back from the clutches of death.

He had persuaded Qiao Yun to kill her more than once, but when she appeared in front of him alive, he deeply realized how wrong he was back then.

In life, many things are in a thought. He is not a saint and will not be completely innocent, but the situation back then ...... Ye Chengyu held his breath, exhaled deeply, and closed his eyes.

"Why didn't you sleep?"

Qiao Yun slept unsteadily, and woke up after a few moments, and when she woke up, she saw a person standing on the balcony.

Getting up and coming over is her casual movement.

"Why did you wake up?" Ye Chengyu extinguished his cigarette when he heard her speak, and turned to look at her.

"It's okay, maybe not used to it." Qiao Yun lowered his eyes and said lightly, and then raised his eyes to look at him, "Why don't you sleep so late?" Smoke here. ā€

Ye Chengyu frowned slightly, and did not take her words, Qiao Yun knew in his heart, looked at him again, he did not look as high-spirited as before, he had a trace of tiredness between his eyebrows and eyes, and now it was dark and green, Qiao Yun's heart was stagnant, and he was a little distressed.

"You haven't had a good rest all these days, have you?" When she asked this, Ye Chengyu didn't nod or shake his head, but the answer was obvious.

"You are not an iron body, Ye Chengyu, don't you pay the most attention to your own life and rest? What's going on now? She deliberately diverted the topic of Xiao Yezi, but he didn't allow her to escape at all, grabbed her wrists with both hands, and forced her to look at herself, "Yes, but in the face of such a child, Qiao Yun, you sue me, what should I do?" ā€

Sue me, what can I do to shorten the distance between us? Sue me, what can I do to snatch our children from the hands of death......

After a long time, Qiao Yun raised her head again, her eyes were red and swollen, but this time she tried not to let the tears in her eyes slip.

"Ye Chengyu, in fact, you also know what the result is, I have already read the hospital report on the way to New York, in fact, Xiao Yezi... Xiao Yezi has no hope of surviving, if it weren't for those instruments, maybe she would have left a long time ago, I am a selfish mother, let alone a competent mother, I ...... I want to give her a healthy body and watch her grow up happily, but this is not the case, and I sometimes wonder if I have done too much evil in the first half of my life, so all the retribution in this half of my life is on my children......"

"But if it's my reason, I'd rather God punish me and give me a healthy little leaf-"

Before she could finish speaking, her lips were 'gagged'.

Ye Chengyu felt sorry for such Qiao Yun, obviously it was not his fault, but he took all the responsibility on himself. As a man, these pressures should not be for women.

Both of them were like trapped beasts, tearing each other 'and biting each other's lips, without the slightest tenderness to speak of.

In the dark night, two young and hot bodies were comforting each other. Qiao Yun hugged Ye Chengyu tightly, her heart was like a lonely boat in the long river, crumbling.

The two were entangled all the way to the narrow single bed, but Ye Chengyu didn't do anything excessive except for kissing.

Both of them are like people who have fallen into the water, comforting each other and venting their depression in a fierce way.

After the kiss, there is a room of tranquility.

"Ye Chengyu, let's not torture Xiao Yezi...... Good no good? Watching her live in pain is worse than wanting me to die, I can't bear the pain for her, and I don't want her to spend her life like this at the end of her life......"

She leaned over his shoulder and sobbed softly.

Giving up a fresh life seems to be just a matter of words for Ye Chengyu four years ago, but this is really difficult for Ye Chengyu today.

The mood is different, and the things you cherish are also different.

After a long time, just when Qiao Yun thought he was asleep, he said one word in a hoarse voice: "Okay." ā€
