Chapter 34: Live for Yourself
When you are faced with two forks in the road and don't know which one to choose, be sure to listen to your inner voice. While the choices it makes aren't necessarily the right, they're sure to be the best for you...
Ouyang Zezeng, like Wu Yao, hoped that I could undergo surgery. His attitude is also more humble than Wu Yao's, although I really want to listen to him, but when I hear that the person he loves the most is not me, I would rather choose to die.
I have entrusted him with the rest of my life, for whom I can leave my homeland and come to the United States, and for whom I can break with my best friend. But now, what I got in exchange for was not his love, and I couldn't accept such an outcome.
Without his love, I really have nothing, no motivation to live, and no yearning for the future life. Even that "wedding" I don't look forward to anymore...
But even so, I still have to live, I still have to live strong. My life is for myself, not for Ouyang Ze. I have experienced Wu Yao's abandonment, I can be strong, and now I can do the same!
My heart tells me to choose to go on, and to go on alone. Even if he lost Ouyang Ze's love. I still have a better tomorrow, and I still have the people who care about me the most...
"Chen Rui? Where have you been this month! Mr. Ouyang and I are dying! ”
As soon as Christao saw me, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes like a flood, flowing freely from her eyes and running wildly on her ruddy face.
In the face of an unknown operation, the only thing I want to see now is this exotic woman who has cared for me for the past few months, this woman who has been kind to me wholeheartedly and does not ask for anything in return.
I asked Wu Yao to secretly go to her so that she could come and see me, although I don't know if this will be the last time we will meet, but I can still see her, and the darkness that shrouds me in my heart has also been dispelled by her.
Before you die, you can still see the person who is best for you, isn't this the result that people pursue in their lives?
"You didn't tell him, did you..."
"No, I hurried over when I received a call from Mr. Wu."
Chris Tao reached out and stroked my messy bangs in front of my forehead, carefully wiping away the beads of sweat that stuck to the roots of my hair.
"Is it surgery today?"
"Hmm..."
Christao also knows a little about my condition, and although I haven't seen her for a month, she seems to have guessed the development of my current condition.
The expression on her face became painful little by little, and her two curved eyebrows gradually wrinkled. Her lips were slightly open as if she was about to say something, but she couldn't say anything.
"I'll be fine, don't worry."
I reached out to wipe the tears from her face, but when my fingertips touched the crystal water, I felt only a cold touch, not the scorching heat of the human body.
"You're going to be fine! Mr. Ouyang is still waiting to marry you! ”
Cristao gripped my hand tightly, barely smiling from the corner of her mouth. But how do you look at it and feel bitter, it's like a bowl of Chinese medicine that has been boiled for a long time, and there is no other taste except for bitterness.
"Married? Scold... Get married..."
Now I only feel extremely ironic when I listen to this word, and I have completely lost the original happiness and sweetness. Maybe it was from that night that all the words that used to be nice to me have changed...
"yes!"
"I'm not going to marry him, never..."
I twisted my head to the side and twisted towards the window with a beautiful view. Now, only this picturesque natural scenery can make me feel relaxed, and the people are no longer important.
It's the depths of winter, and there's light snow outside the window. The branches and branches were covered with a new white garment, and the white veil was used to hide the lifeless torso. But this kind of scenery fascinates me, and makes me fantasize about being able to stand in such a winter scene and leave a beautiful moment.
The white background, the people and things that have lost their life, and the white snow that renders the atmosphere... Isn't this a picture of a winter death?
"Why? Mr. Ouyang loves you so much, how can you abandon him? How can you do what he did for you? ”
Christao didn't understand it very much, and her tone, which was still steady just now, suddenly became hurried and nervous.
"You don't understand, there are some things you don't know, so you won't understand it, I'll decide."
"Yes, I don't understand you, and I don't know what is going on between you that I don't know. But as a subordinate, I can see things far more real than these secrets between you, and Mr. Ouyang has done much more than you can imagine. ”
Christao paused and continued.
"In the month that you were away, Mr. Ouyang was looking for you outside every day, and every day he didn't think about tea and food, and it was too much to eat a piece of bread a day. After a month, the whole person has lost a lot of weight, and he looks more haggard than before. ”
Will Ouyang Ze really do this? I'm not the one he loves the most, why do all this useless work?
"Do you know what is the one thing he does the most every day? It's to take your photo and secretly cry in the bathroom. Every time I saw him come out of the bathroom, his face was full of tears, and his two eyes were swollen like two walnuts. ”
The person Ouyang Ze cried was not me, and the photo in his hand could not be me. It will only be the "Qing" that he thinks about all night, and it will only be the "Qing" that he loves so much...
Aren't these things enough to touch your heart? Isn't that enough to justify your marriage? ”
"How's his company going..."
Everything is secondary, and now all I care about is his company. I want to know if he will make the wrong decision because of my departure, and if he will keep that money and wait for me to come back for surgery.
"I don't know which company paid for it, but Mr. Ouyang's company's original deficit has now made up for it. Now it's back to the way it was before, and it's starting to make a profit. ”
Heaven will always favor those who are loved, those who are poor, and even more so those who have lost their favorite and are pitiful...
"That's good."
"Why? Why would you give up the choice to marry Mr. Ouyang? Isn't that why you came to the United States? ”
Christao was still struggling with the question, but time didn't allow me to give her another answer.
"On the 12th, a nurse will come and push you into the operating room for surgery in a moment. It's time to meet, so please go out. ”
The nurse in white was like "white impermanence" at this time, holding the white stick in her hand to drive Cristao. Although Christao was driven out, she left her last word.
"Chen Rui! Don't give up, be sure to use your willpower to fight the disease! ”
What a phrase with "Western charm"... Still willpower, still fighting...
In this bleak winter death picture, I got the encouragement of Christao, as well as what she called "willpower", so I will not give up, I want to live! Live for yourself!
