That night, he stayed with me at my grandmother's bedside all night.

When it was gray, I felt my hand touched by someone, and I woke up to see my grandmother open her eyes and blinking at us.

Duan Muqing hurriedly called the doctors, and after the doctors examined us, they shook their heads helplessly, and came to the door to tell us that their consciousness was still clear, but except for the head, the whole body was paralyzed. Previously, I thought that surgery would be possible, but now it seems that even if surgery is performed, the risks are very high. At present, only conservative treatment is recommended.

I forcibly held back the cry that had already reached my lips, walked back to the ward quickly, and held my grandmother's hand tightly, "Grandma, don't worry, the doctor has said that it won't be long before you recover." ”

Grandma smiled and shook her head at me. Motioned to me with her eyes, don't hide it from her, she knows everything.

My tears fell in big pieces. Grandma struggled to move her fingers, only to find that it was already wooden, and she could only twitch roughly. When I opened my mouth again, I couldn't even make a sound. She shook her head with a wry smile and looked at me with relief, as if to say that this was the end of the matter, so that I should not be sad.

I quickly wiped away my tears and nodded desperately.

At this time, Duan Muqing walked in, and when his grandmother saw him, she looked very excited, and her originally dim eyes flashed with hope.

Duan Muqing sat down and gently took his grandmother's hand, "Grandma, I'm Muqing, do you have something to say to me?" ”

Grandma smiled and blinked, and nodded. Then, she looked at Duan Muqing's hand, and then at mine.

Duan Muqing immediately took my hand knowingly, and nested it softly in the palm of his hand.

Grandma opened her mouth and moved, and shook her head helplessly.

"Grandma, do you want to say that in the future, you want me to help you take good care of Xiaoxi?"

Listening to Duan Muqing's words, grandma nodded hurriedly.

"Grandma, don't worry. As long as there is me for one day in the future, I will never let Xiaoxi live a hard life like before. I will take good care of her and protect her. I will love her more than I love myself, for a longer time. ”

When my grandmother heard this, she closed her eyes and shed two lines of muddy tears.

After that, Duan Muqing stayed with me for more than an hour, until my grandmother fell asleep faintly.

I took out the signed document and handed it over, "You go back to the office!" This contract may be able to help you with your next big project. I'll do it here. ”

He took it, "Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long." ”

I looked up in surprise, "Why are you waiting too long?" ”

He smiled faintly and reached out to wipe away my tears from my face, "I'll come to see you whenever I have time and take care of myself." ”

"Mu Qing ......" Seeing that he was leaving, I grabbed his hand.

"Huh?"

I was stunned, "Maybe, it's not the right time to say this now, but I'm a little afraid, I'm afraid that if I don't say it now, when I want to say it in the future, the atmosphere between us will change again." ”

"Xiaoxi, I'm just making you so uneasy?"

I stared straight into his bottomless eyes, "Yes! ”

The corners of his eyes twitched down slightly.

"Mu Qing, what you said in the car yesterday, I believe it came from your heart. And, I think you're right too. Mine is indeed that kind of person. But now, I don't want to be like that anymore, I want to tell you, I love you, Duan Muqing! Love you so much! But please forgive me, because you are too perfect, and in my eyes you seem to be an omnipotent God-man, so that I can't guess or see through. I don't even know what I can do for you. It's not that I love Zhao Yu and people more than you, but I think they need me to help, and I can do it. ”

I sniffed and continued, "It's not because they're more important to them than you. In fact... That's just an escape. I feel incompetent with you, and I feel like I'm still useful with them. Actually, I should have told you that I really love you! It's just that everyone in this world has a different way of expressing love, some people are clear and neat, and some people are... The more you love, the more you hide inside. I'm the latter. I know I'm really annoying to have a personality like this, but that's what I am! ”

"...... Shio"

"If I have broken your heart like this, please believe me, I didn't mean to, I'm really sorry."

He reached out and tried to put his arms around my shoulders, and I slowly stepped back, "I appreciate what you just said to my grandmother, even if it was comforting and comforting her, I really appreciate it!" ”

"Xiaoxi, what nonsense are you talking about?"

I shook my head, "Now that my grandmother is like this, I don't dare to have any other extravagant hopes, between me and you, let's go with the flow!" Thank you. ”

As I spoke, I turned and walked into my grandmother's hospital room.

&&

In the next few days, Duan Muqing occasionally came back to visit my grandmother and me, always looking hurried, as if there were many things to do. And every time I come, I repeat a sentence.

It won't keep you waiting too long.

The relationship between us has been so awkward.

And I really don't have those extra thoughts to think about the relationship between children and daughters at the moment. I'm just fine now, staying by my grandmother's side. Quietly accompanied her through the last journey of her life.

Sometimes I stay in front of my grandmother's hospital bed and doze in a daze, and when I suddenly wake up, I can always see my grandmother crying.

The more I wiped those tears, the more I wiped them.

It really broke my heart.

On that day, to my surprise, Xiao He of the company brought a big fruit basket and a large bouquet of flowers to visit my grandmother.

Before I could ask her how she knew, I could hear her babbling about work as soon as she sat down.

"Hey, Sister Xi, you don't know! You're not in the department now, it's the tiger monkey in the mountains who dominates the city. Those colleagues in our department are simply living in a dire situation! That old monster scolds people every day in a weird way, so that we can't do anything every day, so we just listen to her lectures! You don't know how perverted that person is, scolding you and asking you to take notes while listening, write down all the things she scolds you, and then write down what you have learned. I was arrested and scolded several times, and my ears were wooden. She's a Red Guard! The rhythm of criticizing people to death! ”

I smiled helplessly, "That's no way, I can't go back here for a while, and it's useless for you to look for me." Otherwise... Let's take a look. ”

She immediately shook her head, "He? Forget it! Although it is true that a man has great power, but he knows who I am, will he listen to what I say? Besides, that's a notoriously busy man, and it doesn't seem like he's usually busy these days, and it's harder to meet him than it is to meet you now! ”

I thought about it too, and then said some inconsequential words of comfort, and she kept shaking her head.

It wasn't until the moment before she was about to leave that she looked at me with worried eyes, "Sister Xi, I'm worried about you!" Recently, colleagues have been rumoring that the old monster has secretly contacted some of the old leaders who supported her before, and is ready to make a comeback! You'll have to be careful. ”

I'll just hear that.

In the office, there is no shortage of these gossips.

Besides, even if it were true, I really didn't have that energy right now! At this moment, there is nothing more precious than the time I can spend with my grandmother.

If I really lost my position as director because of this, I would admit it.

However, when I heard this in my grandmother's ears, it didn't smell like this. She was afraid that she would drag me down, so she kept motioning me to go out to work with her eyes.

At first, I tried to persuade her, but she glared at me indignantly and shook her head in feigned anger. Later, when she saw that I ignored me and was ready to stay like this, she simply went on a hunger strike in protest.

At first, I thought it was just a whim, so I didn't take it to heart.

But until noon the next day, no matter how much I fed her, she wouldn't open her mouth. If you dare not go to work, I will starve myself to death.

It's not a thing to take nutrition potions all the time, and it's impossible to break her mouth and stuff it!

But if you continue to toss like this, grandma's body will ......

Just when I was overwhelmed by my anxiety, the caretaker who had been by my side gave me a move. She has been with her grandmother since she was hospitalized at the beginning, and she knows her grandmother's temper in all aspects. Tell me to follow my grandmother's wishes and go out for three or four hours a symbolic day.

She took advantage of this time to coax my grandmother to eat the food and I will come back.

Come to think of it, although she is not a long-term solution, it is better than my grandmother being hungry. I nodded helplessly, and I agreed.

I pretended to surrender and told my grandmother that I had gone to work, and asked her to listen to the escort. When my grandmother saw me picking up my bag and preparing to go out, she finally had a smile on her face.

I was anxious and uncomfortable.

At this time, my grandmother was still thinking about me, but what have I done for her after so many years?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I was really ashamed.

If this person doesn't get up, even an elevator will be against you. I waited for a long time, and the elevator was stuck on the first floor below, so I simply chose to take the stairs.

I went down to the second floor in one breath, and my knees were faintly sore. I walked over to the railing and wanted to rest for a while. The second floor is the obstetrics and gynecology department, and I saw many pot-bellied women being led around by their husbands or mothers-in-law, and my heart was both sour and envious.

At this time, I saw two familiar figures, and I was instantly stunned.
