Seventy-six
Sure enough, the medical record clearly stated that liver cancer was in the early stage.
"What about Father? In the hospital? Qiao Yi'an leaned towards his mother and asked anxiously.
Qiao's mother didn't answer, only looked at the bedroom with her eyes.
"Why don't you go to the hospital? It's just the early days, and it's completely curable. Qiao Yi'an looked at his mother with a puzzled expression.
"An'er, Mom knows that you are sensible and filial, you have sacrificed a lot for this family in the past few years, Mom knows that if your eldest brother and second sister don't have an accident, you don't have to be so wronged." Qiao's mother said softly, constantly wiping away tears.
"Mother, where is this, I'm not wronged, I've never been wronged, hurry up and send my father to the hospital." Qiao Yi'an got up to go to the bedroom.
"An'er, sit down." His mother grabbed him, "Your father, he won't go to the hospital." β
"Why?" Qiao Yi'an was even more surprised.
"An'er, what kind of girl is Liu, do you really know her?" Mother suddenly turned to Liu Yunxi.
"Mother, does this have anything to do with Yunxi? I certainly know her. Qiao Yi'an looked at her mother strangely.
"If I sue you that she did leave Yingcai because she intervened in the principal's family, you still don't believe it?" His mother asked, staring at him.
"I only believe in Yunxi, she is never like this, she is the purest and kindest girl I have ever met." Qiao Yi'an met his mother's gaze and said affirmatively.
The mother stopped talking and let out a long sigh.
This long sigh of helplessness made him immediately think of the matter between him and Yun Xi, his mother was powerless, or her mother herself was shaken, she was sure that Yun Xi was the girl she said in the information and recordings. This judgment made him break out in a cold sweat, what should he do? My father is sick and refuses to seek medical treatment, and my mother, who is the only one who supports me, has fallen to my father, what should I do?
Qiao Yi'an, who was silent, had already guessed his father's motive for refusing to seek medical treatment, just like a hunger strike four years ago, asking him to promise to marry Xiangzhu, otherwise, his stubborn father would not go to the hospital. And this time is more severe than the last time, how can a disease like liver cancer be delayed? Does he still have time to contend with his father or maneuver?
And the mother obviously knew her father's intentions, but she couldn't open her mouth, she preferred to hear her son make his own choice, so that his son would not give in to coercion, at least psychologically he would not feel too guilty.
Qiao Yi'an pushed open the bedroom door.
The father lay flat on the bed, his eyes staring at the ceiling, his face pale, as if he did not know that someone had entered the room.
"Father!" Joe Yi'an called.
β¦β¦
"Let's go to the hospital!" Qiao Yi'an said.
β¦β¦
My father didn't react, and he didn't blink his eyes. Qiao Yi'an looked at his father who looked like a sculpture on the bed in great pain, he hadn't seen him for a few days, and his father was thin and haggard. The deep sunken eye sockets made his protruding cheekbones thinner, and the pain in his eyes seemed to have accumulated for thousands of years, thick and thick. There was no trace of sadness on his face, calm and indifferent, but it was this calm and indifference that made Qiao Yi'an afraid, this time, his father was really discouraged.
His father had a son in middle age, inherited his father's business at the age of forty, and ran between the shipyard and the school all the year round, without a day of leisure, and broke his heart, so that he could earn the current stable situation......
At some point, my mother came in, sat down beside my father, and looked at my father with infinite sorrow, her eyes full of tears, but they did not fall.
"Zhiyuan, go to the hospital!" The mother pleaded bitterly.
β¦β¦
"Can you lose this big family business, and can you also lose An'er and me?" The mother finally couldn't help it, and big tears fell.
β¦β¦
"Fatherβ" cried Qiao Yi'an, infinitely grieved.
β¦β¦
"Zhiyuan, don't be embarrassed, I-I'm distressed." The mother's voice was like a cry of blood and tears.
β¦β¦
"Mother-" Qiao Yi'an cried out with pity, his legs weakened, he knelt at his mother's feet, buried his head in his mother's knees, couldn't hold back any longer, and sobbed loudly.
"An'erβ" Mother cried out bitterly, and began to cry aloud.
After a long time, Qiao Yi'an gradually calmed down, raised his head, wiped away his mother's tears, and said, "Mother, don't cry, you go and prepare, we will send my father to the hospital." β
Then he turned to his father, took his hand, and said with a forced laugh, "Father, go to the hospital." Otherwise, who will officiate my engagement on the twentieth? β
Father's hand snapped, but there was still no expression.
When the mother saw it, she smiled with tears in her eyes, wiped her tears urgently, and said, "An'er, your father has agreed to go to the hospital, so I'll clean it up." β
Qiao Yi'an looked at his mother, blinked, and pulled out a smile.
Yunxi, I'm sorry! Just like you've never met me! We never knew each other!
Qiao Yi'an sent his father to the hospital, and after completing the hospitalization procedures, he originally planned to accompany his father for a few days, but his father was worried about the evaluation and evaluation work of the school, so he had to do it himself. So Qiao Yi'an helped his father hire a special nurse, and after learning some basic information from the attending doctor, he returned to Guanghua.
During this time, Yunxi called a few times, but Qiao Yi'an didn't answer, and sent a few more messages, and it could be seen that she was very worried because she didn't know what the situation was. But it was just a simple worry, and there was no mention of his engagement. That day, Yuan Yazhu obviously deliberately said that he was going to get engaged in front of her, and she did hear it and reacted obviously. But in the past two days, Qiao Yi'an suddenly disappeared, without any explanation, she didn't ask about the engagement, but just expressed worry and concern, which made Qiao Yi'an feel more and more painful, and her heart stabbed like a needle.
Yunxi, how can you be so forbearing? So empathetic? How do I deal with you? And what will you face?
Qiao Yi'an, who returned to Guanghua, was busy sorting out the evaluation materials on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to think about how to face Yunxi and how to tell her the fact that he was going to get engaged.
How to speak? Sue her directly, and then explain that you are forced to do so? Between his father and her, he can only choose his father? And then ask for her understanding and forgiveness? What a grandiose sound! How selfish and cruel!
They hadn't seen each other for four days. To be exact, Liu Yunxi hadn't seen Qiao Yi'an for four days. Because Qiao Yi'an was deliberately avoiding her, Qiao Yi'an had a way to stagger whenever they might meet, so that Liu Yunxi couldn't see him.
When he saw that Liu Yunxi was able to walk normally on the fourth day, he was so happy that he almost ran up to call her, but he stopped after taking a few steps. Just look at her secretly from afar, and soon, she will know that you are no longer qualified to be near her. Qiao Yi'an painfully reminded himself to admonish himself.
