Chapter 122: Dandelion Life
"May I ask who of you is the family of Chen Xiaodong (the real name of the second baby). Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" a young nurse shouted.
"I am, I am." I hurriedly answered.
The female nurse walked over with a surgical report and said, "May I ask you are Chen Xiaodong's ........?" β
I was a little flustered, and in a panic I said, "I'm his uncle, Erwa. No, what happened to him? β
The young female nurse's expression was a little gloomy, "His current condition is not stable, he has a slight concussion from a blow to the head, a broken left leg, and the most serious is ......... Comminuted fracture of the right leg......."
My heart sank suddenly, and I felt my legs go limp...........
Holding on to the chair next to me, I continued to ask, "What happened to the surgery?" β
"At present, he is still in a coma, and this operation has taken his left leg back, and now he must be observed for half a month to determine whether he can complete the next stage of surgery." The female nurse handed me the surgery sheet apologetically, then shook her head and disappeared at the end of the corridor.............
The second baby still closed his eyes, his whole body was wrapped in a white bandage, his left leg was fixed by a steel plate, and he sighed heavily in his heart, only hating that he could not bear all this for this poor child..............
The time was close to the early hours of the morning, and I thought that Xia Yuan would arrive in half an hour, but now that three hours have passed, I still haven't seen her.
The white light of the hospital always gives people a depressing feeling, sitting on the chair in the corridor, looking at the huge operation fee on the list, a heart-wrenching pain in my heart, this pain is not about the 100,000 yuan of surgery fees, but the distress of the second baby.
Looking at the starry night sky outside the window in confusion, the innocent smile of the second baby appeared in front of me again, stretching out my hand in the dark night, I seemed to be able to grab him, and then put him on my shoulder.........
.......................
I don't know how long later, I fell asleep on a chair in the corridor, and in a daze, I heard the sound of hurried high heels, and when I looked up, I saw a graceful figure running towards us at the end of the corridor.
I rubbed my eyes and couldn't see clearly, but as the sound of high heels became louder and louder, I realized that it was really Xia Yuan.
Xia Yuan saw that it was me and quickened her pace and ran towards me.
Xia Yuan was getting closer and closer, and she looked out of place running in the long corridor of the hospital dressed in a white evening dress.
She ran so fast that when she was about to get in front of me, she didn't steady her feet and almost stumbled to the ground.
I held Xia Yuan, she held my shoulder, her strength was great, and her expression was even more eager, "How is Erwa?" Isn't it okay..... Luo Bing, you speak. Xia Yuan shook me.
"His left leg has been taken back, but his right leg is comminuted and fractured.... We have to wait for the next stage of observation before we can perform the operation............"
Xia Yuan's expression was painful, her body trembled, and she was speechless for a while.
My heart was also heartbreaking, and at this moment, I didn't know where I got the courage to subconsciously hug her into my arms...........
Xia Yuan seemed to find a shoulder to vent, she buried her head in my arms and cried.
I gently stroked her hair and felt the warmth she brought to me........
After a long time, Xia Yuan came out of my arms, I wiped away the tears after crying for her, and she said to me in a stalk: "Why...... Why...... He was so young that something like this happened....... Yesterday he pulled my trouser leg and asked me to buy her milk tea, why ........... today" Xia Yuan said as tears fell involuntarily.
Xia Yuan couldn't cry, she hugged me tightly, and my heart once again suffered death-like pain............
..................
The night was deeper, Xia Yuan comforted the crying unconscious Sister Li, and after a while, she came out of the ward and sat quietly next to me.
After a long silence, I said, "You just ...... No...... Why did it take so long for you to .......?"
Xia Yuan seemed to be still immersed in grief, she held her hand on her chest and prayed, and replied softly: "I was attending a banquet in SH when you called me, and there was no high-speed rail so late, so I came so late to ........."
No wonder she was dressed like this, it turned out to be a banquet.
She took the medical bill in my hand and said to me, "I'll pay for the second baby's medical expenses." Xia Yuan hesitated for a moment and continued, "I have to go back tomorrow....... Can you help take care of the second baby these days? β
Looking at her eyes again, her eyelashes were very light, and there was a tiredness after sadness, I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her, and then I thought of all the hardships she had endured behind her and the deceit in the mall, and it was even more faintly painful......... But they are powerless.........
I wanted to ask her what she was busy with, but the words went to her throat again: "Then you go first, Sister Li, I will take care of it.........."
"Luo Bing, I'm sorry, I'll definitely come back to accompany Sister Li when I'm done with the past few days."
Although there are a thousand and ten thousand in my heart who don't want her to leave me, I know that she is carrying the obsession left to him by his father.............
I pretended to be calm and said, "Okay, when you come back, maybe the little cub leg of the second baby will be fine, and we can walk down the street together again........"
Xia Yuan nodded, turned her head and took out a bank card from her bag and handed it to me, saying, "This is my bank card, the password 980601 pay the medical expenses first." β
This is the second time I have taken the bank card from her, and I don't know what it feels like in my heart at the moment, and I feel a little inferior.
"Just three days......... I'll come back in three days to take care of the second baby....."
.......................
There was silence all around, I sent Xia Yuan to the door of the hospital, and after getting in the car, she still looked a little hurried, but she still said to me: "I'll go home first, I have to go back to SH tomorrow I must take care of the second baby, remember to call me if you have something............"
"Don't worry, I'll ......"
In the dark, I looked at Xia Yuan, even though I didn't want her to leave, I didn't have a reason to leave her, because her world was more helpless than mine...........
Soon Xia Yuan started the car, she glanced back at me, and disappeared at the end of the night.
I lit a cigarette and wandered aimlessly under the silent night sky, a gust of wind blew, the smoke confused my eyes, and the corners of my eyes gradually felt warm, and at this moment I seemed to see my own distorted life.........
ββActually, life is dandelion, it seems to be free but can't help itself, there are some things, it's not that you don't care, but you care but can't do anything............
