Chapter 28 Wandering
In the ward, Xi Juan looked at his handsome and gloomy son and sighed helplessly.
"Aze, it's not that Mom wants to object to you being together. It's just that you are my son, how can I be willing to see you become a victim in this relationship, repeatedly frustrated and hurt? Feelings are not that you will be rewarded if you give, but on the contrary, the more you give, the more your heart hurts. If she still can't accept your feelings after this experience, then you have to force yourself to let go no matter what. ”
"Mom, although she didn't accept my feelings directly, she was already trying to come to me, didn't you also say that she proposed marriage in front of you? I've waited so long for this opportunity, how could I give up? As for what the future holds, he doesn't want to think about it, but for now he won't give up no matter what.
"If she can be with you best, I'm afraid I'm afraid of her ......" Xi Juan suddenly paused and looked at the door, Xue Zuining happened to push open the door and came in, and when he saw Xi Juan next to Xu Ze's bed, he pulled the corners of his mouth.
"Auntie."
"Where have you been? Why didn't you talk to me when you were discharged from the hospital? Xu Ze, who was lying on his side, wanted to sit up while speaking, but Xi Juan hurriedly held it down, "You almost let the wound crack just now, don't move again." ”
"Mom, I'm fine, you can go back first." Xu Ze urged his mother to leave.
Xi Juan glanced at him and looked at Xue Zuining.
"Xiao Ning, Aze can eat, I brought him porridge and soup."
Xue Zuining nodded, "Aunt Xie Lu." ”
Xi Juan smiled softly and patted her on the shoulder, "You have to supply nutrition for two people now, so you have to eat more." ”
Xue Zuining saw her eyes fall on her abdomen again, she couldn't help but feel a little cramped and uncomfortable, and wanted to talk about the child several times, but she had already promised Xu Ze that she would talk about it when he was well.
As soon as Xi Juan left, Xu Ze immediately became restless and wanted to try to sit up, Xue Zuining heard Xi Juan say that he almost let the wound crack just now, obviously in a hurry to find himself, he felt a little self-blame, held his hand and said, "Don't move, I'm not leaving, I'm here to accompany you." ”
"But at noon, you also said that you would accompany me, but when I went back to the ward, I didn't see you coming up." Xu Ze's tone was complaining, but there was no blame on his face.
Xue Zuining didn't say anything, pulled over a chair and sat down.
"Aren't you hungry? I'll feed you some soup and then some porridge. ”
"Have you ever cried?"
Xue Zuining froze, and the hand stretched out to the thermos froze for a moment.
"Your eyes are red, you must have cried." Xu Ze frowned, "For what?" ”
Xue Zuining shook his head and silently brought the soup over.
"Xue Zuining, don't you want me to help you get your heart back? In that case, you should be honest with me, so that I can know what you are thinking. Xu Ze grabbed one of her hands and looked at her with dark eyes, "Even if you cry because of him, I want to know what you are crying for him." ”
"Nope." Xue Zuining lowered his eyes, "I'm just upset, haven't I always been like this." ”
"Is it really just upset?"
"Hmm."
"And because he ......"
"It's all clear." Xue Zuining didn't want to remind himself of that scene again, so he interrupted him and scooped a mouthful of soup and handed it to his mouth.
Xu Ze looked at her thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.
The surroundings were quiet for a while, and Xue Zuining fed him some soup and porridge, but he didn't eat it.
"Xue Zuining."
Xue Zuining looked at him.
"Did you decide to break off your relationship with him completely because I saved you?"
This question has been tangled with him all afternoon, and he has been hesitating whether to ask it clearly, but he is afraid that asking the answer will make him very sad.
But he didn't feel comfortable without asking, so he couldn't help but ask.
Xue Zuining was silent, and only said after a while, "Although it is not ruled out that it was because you sacrificed your life to save me that I made this decision, but mainly because I didn't want to continue to entangle with him like that." ”
"Then when am I going to officially visit your elders?"
Xue Zuining was stunned again, as if he didn't expect him to say this suddenly.
"Now, you've seen my parents, and out of courtesy, of course I'm going to visit your elders and make it official."
Xue Zuining lowered his head, "They...... Should come to see you at the hospital tomorrow. After all, she said that it was Xu Ze who saved her, so even if they didn't believe that she broke up with Lu Huaining because she liked Xu Ze, based on Xu Ze's life-saving grace to her and the friendship between the two families, the Su family would definitely come to see him.
"Do you know what it means that we've met both parents?"
Xue Zuining raised his eyes, caught a glimpse of the joy in his eyes, was a little sad, couldn't bear to hit him, and only smiled lightly, "My grandfather suffered a gunshot wound when he was young, and the weather changed suddenly a few days ago, and he is recuperating from his injuries and his body has not fully recovered yet, and his temper is not very good, so don't talk nonsense in front of him tomorrow, lest he have a black face on the spot." ”
"Don't worry, I won't say anything else, coaxing the old people is my forte, and I guarantee that they are very satisfied with their future son-in-law." The more Xu Ze spoke, the more interested he became, and the happy expression on his face was like a child who had received a beloved gift.
"The thought of meeting my elders tomorrow makes me suddenly so nervous." Xu Ze grabbed her hand and kissed it on the mouth, saying that he was nervous, but he looked relaxed and expectant.
Xue Zuining's hand stiffened, resisted the urge to withdraw it, and deliberately squinted at him a little uncomfortably, "Others pointed guns at you and didn't see you frowning, and you were still being shot for me like a fool, you are not even afraid of death and are you afraid of seeing people?" ”
"I'm not afraid when I take a bullet for you because I don't want you to be hurt, and I'm a man, and a bullet can't kill me."
Seeing that he said it easily, Xue Zuining remembered that he was lying in a pool of blood and still looking at himself and laughing, and his nose was so sour that he couldn't open his mouth for a while.
"Look, I cried again after saying it well, why didn't I know that you loved to cry so much?" Xu Ze wanted to wipe her tears, but he was restrained by the wound and was powerless.
"I'm crying, you're stupid." The bullet doesn't have a long eye, and the other party deliberately wants his life, if the bullet hurts not his lungs but his heart, then does he still have a life?
Is it worth risking her life to save a woman who has another man in her heart?
Xu Ze pursed his lips disapprenorely, "Fools have stupid blessings, didn't I just get a blessing in disguise this time?" "To be able to be with her, let alone cultivate for half a year, he is willing to let him be disabled.
The two didn't know how long they had been chatting, Xue Zuining saw that Xu Ze was not sleepy, and subconsciously glanced at the time, seeing that it was already more than eleven o'clock, remembering the chaotic situation in front of him, he sighed softly in his heart.
"Hurry up and go to sleep, I'll go back when you're asleep."
"How can I sleep with you?" Xu Ze reluctantly put her hand on his face, and sighed faintly, "When will I be able to hold your hand to sleep like this all the time, without worrying that I won't see you when I wake up, and I don't have to worry that all this beauty is just a flash in the pan?" ”
This kind of Xu Ze made Xue Zuining feel distressed, but this distress was not the pain in her chest when she saw the injury on Lu Huaining's face on the isolated island and the blood at the corner of her mouth, but just felt sorry for his stupidity, and felt sorry for his dedication.
Even if the emotional debt can be measured in money, what she owes Xu Ze is a huge amount of money that she will never be able to repay.
"You go to sleep, I'll come over early tomorrow, and I'll make you whatever you want to eat."
Xu Ze stared at her for a while, and suddenly grinned, "Are you ready to be a cook for the rest of your life?" ”
Although he didn't want to hit him, there were some things that Xue Zuining had to say.
"Xu Ze, I said that the premise of being a cook for you for a lifetime is if you can get my heart back, and this is not an easy thing, I said...... My heart is in Him...... So don't get your hopes up for it......"
"I know, but I can wait."
Looking at his determined gaze, Xue Zuining was speechless for a long time.
It was already early in the morning when she got home, Xue Zuining thought that it must be quiet and lonely in the villa so late, but she didn't expect to find that the elders of the Su family were waiting for her in the living room when she opened the door, and the old man of the Su family had a particularly ugly face.
"Zui Ning, why did you come back so late? Have you eaten? Su Yi's mother, Xi Yue, grabbed her slightly cool hand and asked with concern.
Xue Zuining shook his head with a light smile, "I'm not hungry." ”
She looked at the old man with a pale face, "Grandpa, your body hasn't recovered yet, and you've been on the plane for so long, why didn't you rest early?" ”
The old man of the Su family snorted lightly and opened his mouth to reprimand, but when he saw his granddaughter's obviously thin face, he paused again, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and eased his emotions before saying, "What is the matter between you and him?" What are you doing to protect him and say that he likes another man? ”
"Grandpa, can you not mention this matter in the future?"
"But there are some things that don't exist if you don't mention them, and a blind person can see that you love him, so how can you like other men? Did you repay the favor because that man saved you? ”
"Nope."
"What's that?"
Xue Zuining sighed, feeling helpless and irritable about the old man of the Su family's stubbornness and domineering, and his eyebrows unconsciously twisted.
Women know how to feel sorry for women best, Xi Yue couldn't bear to look at her embarrassed, and hurriedly spoke, "Dad, Zuining doesn't want to say it, don't ask, you see it's not early, you go to rest early, I'll make some food for Zuining and the child in her belly." ”
"Auntie, no, I'm not hungry."
"How can someone of this age not be hungry without eating? My aunt knows that you have no appetite, but you have to eat some, and no matter how thin you are, you will become a mummy. Xi Yue pinched her fleshless cheeks, her face full of distress.
Xue Zuining didn't refuse her concern anymore, nodded and sent her into the kitchen, but the old man didn't get up and go back to the room to rest.
Seeing this, Xue Zuining couldn't leave.
"I really regret that I didn't rely on your mother's heart for what I did in the first place, otherwise how could such a thing happen?" The old man looked into the distance, and the lovely sweet smile of the little great-granddaughter appeared in his mind, although he had never met, but he liked it from the bottom of his heart, and that little touch was simply a copy of his own woman when she was a child.
"I thought he could protect your mother and daughter and give you a happy life, so I tried to convince myself to keep you by his side and forgive him for the harm he had caused you." But he never imagined that things would turn out like this, and it made him regret it.
Xue Zuining looked at his grandfather who was remorseful and blamed, but he didn't know how to comfort him.
There were some things that didn't exist because she didn't want to mention them. The sudden departure of her daughter left a wound in her heart that would never heal. Her heart hurts, but she still wants to comfort her family calmly. And every time I mention my daughter's matter, it's like pouring salt on that wound over and over again, obviously my body is numb to pain, but I still feel the pain of eating my bones.
She didn't know how long she could last.
