Chapter 155: Protecting You with My Life
Tang Luoran looked exhausted, but she still beat her spirits and waited for Zheng Xiaoying to accuse her.
But how could Zheng Xiaoying be reluctant, she hugged Tang Luoran with red eyes, and her words were full of distress, "You must have endured a lot of hard work these days, you don't even have someone to talk to." ”
There is no need to ask, she also understands Tang Luoran's choice - she no longer feels confused, this time she can finally stand firmly on Fu Zichen's side, not out of pity, but from the heart.
In this case, as a friend, Zheng Xiaoying naturally supports her unconditionally.
"Uncle Tang, I'll help you explain to him, you can stay with Fu Zichen these days, if you feel tired, you can give it to me at any time, I'll take the shift." Zheng Xiaoying said cheerfully, in order not to delay Tang Luoran's time, she offered to leave.
Tang Luoran had nothing but thanks.
When everyone was gone, she immediately returned to the bedside, and her eyes fell on his pale face, which looked like a carefully carved statue, or a fragile object, that shattered at the touch of it.
Carefully caressing Fu Zichen's cheek, Tang Luoran was as close to him as possible, listening to his even breath, making her feel at ease.
"Zichen, did you hear it just now? I've never forgotten you, not just five years, but I remember everything that happened in the ten years I've known you. She muttered to herself, saying that she couldn't help but feel sad.
In the past ten years, the most impressive thing is only when they met for the first time, they hugged each other tightly at the same young age, and lived with the determination to die.
In the first five years, Fu Zichen fell in love with Yin Zi, and she could only walk with them as the so-called Yin Zi's best friend, obviously Yin Zi's position belonged to her, but she couldn't get it. For the next five years, the marriage she forced was not happy.
But Tang Luoran didn't regret it at all.
In the silence, Tang Luoran became more and more sleepy, she withdrew her hand, turned to clasp his hand with both hands, lay on the side of the bed, and murmured in a trance, "When you wake up, according to your previous plan, we will repeat all the important days we have missed in the past five years." ”
As she spoke, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally she couldn't resist the deep sleepiness, closed her eyes and fell asleep......
Forgetting how long she had been asleep, Tang Luoran felt someone approaching her in a trance, covering her shoulders with a heavy blanket, and then walking away quickly and gently closing the door.
And when she woke up, as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Fu Zichen looking at her gently, and the thin lips under the oxygen mask showed an indifferent smile.
She's not dreaming, is she?
"Zichen, are you awake?" Tang Luoran stood up suddenly, full of surprise, she didn't even know how to express her smile for a while, her mood fluctuated too much, making it difficult for her to digest.
Fu Zichen half-raised his eyes, although he looked very tired, he could see that he was already conscious, and he could even reach out and grab her cuffs, although he only barely grabbed a small piece.
After reacting, Tang Luoran remembered that she should call a doctor at this time, she hurriedly pulled away his hand and said nervously, "You wait for me, I'll call a doctor, and I'll be back soon." ”
After saying that, she immediately turned around, but was stopped by his soft call, "Luo Ran......" The faint voice became smaller through the oxygen mask, but Tang Luoran just heard it clearly.
She turned around and sat down again, afraid that she would miss every word he had ever said.
"Is there anything wrong with you, how are you feeling now?" Tang Luoran asked cautiously, his brows furrowed.
Fu Zichen couldn't make a sound, just nodded, then closed his eyes again, and lost consciousness.
When he didn't open his eyes to see her, Tang Luoran couldn't hold back his tears, grabbed his hand and put it on his cheek, and the tears brushed down his cheeks, and he couldn't tell whether he was lost or happy.
But no matter what, even if it's only for a few seconds, as long as he can wake up, that's a good thing.
In this way, Tang Luoran was also relieved, she sat on the edge of the hospital bed for a while, then got up and went to the bathroom to wash up hurriedly, and then walked out of the ward, while Jiang Hanchen was outside the door, and the hand hanging in the air had not had time to be withdrawn.
"Coincidentally, I was looking for you." Jiang Hanchen withdrew his hand and chuckled, it didn't look unnatural.
Tang Luoran closed the door and isolated herself from him, she didn't run away, and offered to invite, "Are you free now?" Let's find a place to talk. ”
She knew the time for rejection had come.
Following Jiang Hanchen to the rooftop, they were speechless all the way, and the strange thing was that Tang Luoran no longer felt embarrassed, she had made all the preparations and no longer hesitated.
Jiang Hanchen bought coffee, he handed it to her, asked her to sit down on the bench, and then sat next to her, and when he looked up from this angle, he could take in a large area of the sky in his view.
The cold wind blew, her hair fluttered slightly, Tang Luoran simply pulled her hair behind her ears, turned her head, and smiled at him, "Obviously, we only met not long ago, but it feels completely different." ”
The previous panic and confusion disappeared in just one day.
"Really? I don't feel anything. Jiang Hanchen also chuckled, his smile was suppressed and reluctant, he didn't look at her when he spoke, his eyes wandered, and finally fell on her shoulder.
She always felt the same way for him - reserved and cautious, and occasionally he would want to get along with him, was it really that unnatural?
Suddenly fell into silence, making them all at a loss, and Tang Luoran knew that she had to take the initiative to speak this time, so she rarely didn't escape anymore, and said suddenly, "I think you also heard it, I remember everything about Fu Zichen." ”
Does this mean anything?
Feeling a faint panic in his heart, but he couldn't do anything, Jiang Hanchen could only smile bitterly, had to look her in the eyes, and cautiously asked, "Do you really remember everything?" Including feelings for him? ”
"It's not so much that I think about it, it's better to say that I have never forgotten, Jiang Hanchen, I haven't forgotten him." Tang Luoran couldn't answer with a smile, she always couldn't control her tears now, especially when she thought of Fu Zichen, she regretted it.
Why wait until this time to clearly realize that you can't do without Fu Zichen?
Even if she couldn't pretend to be safe, at least she didn't want Jiang Hanchen to see her vulnerability, she held on, "I can't forget him until I die, so I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't respond to your feelings." ”
This is the purpose of her taking the initiative to ask him out today - refusal is the most painful thing, she doesn't want to make Jiang Hanchen sad, but it's better than taking advantage of his feelings all the time.
I thought that Jiang Hanchen would be furious, or simply leave angrily, but I didn't want his reaction to be much calmer than he imagined, it can be said that there was almost no movement, and only the whirring sound of the cold wind whistling in his ears passed.
After a moment, I heard him say in a voice mixed with a smile, "Actually, you don't need to tell me the truth so quickly, it would be better for me to be deceived for a longer time, at least it's not too late to wait for Fu Zichen to wake up." ”
Listening to his tone, he also expected that he would come to this point early on, after all, the twisted melon is not sweet, and the emotional matter cannot be forced.
"I'm sorry, I'm ashamed of you, I am also grateful that you can try your best to save Zichen this time." Tang Luoran let go of her hand and sniffed, she didn't dare to look at him, she looked up at the sky, and let the cold wind blow on her face to the bone.
She paused for a moment and continued with a complicated expression, "You can tell me anything you want in return, except for loving you, of course." ”
"You really don't have any affection at all." Jiang Hanchen chuckled and accepted her attitude completely.
It's not that he doesn't have a temper, but he is still reluctant to be angry with her after all, not to mention, he should have realized that Tang Luoran didn't belong to him, but he still has fantasies, and now he deserves this fate.
Before Tang Luoran apologized to him again, Jiang Hanchen suddenly stood up, put his coffee on the stool, and walked alone to the guardrail on the edge of the rooftop, looking at the outside world through the grid, and the thoughts in his mind kept drifting by.
"Although I am not willing to give you to him like this, since this is your choice, then I respect your choice." As he spoke, the smile on his face still couldn't hold back, the corners of his mouth slumped, and his delicate face could not hide the loss.
"But—" He turned around suddenly, the cold wind filled his white coat, blowing the hem of his clothes, and he put his hand in his pocket, like a painting, "If Fu Zichen treats you badly, or if you want to regret it, you can come back to me at any time, and I will always wait for you." ”
He didn't dare to guarantee when he would be able to wait, at least for now, he didn't have a way to completely let go.
"I see, thank you." Tang Luoran smiled indifferently, she got up from the chair, reached out to pull the messy hair behind her ears, and pressed the hem of the white coat that was blown up by the wind, and looked at him from a distance, her starry eyes flashed, and she suddenly spoke, "It's not too early, let's go down." ”
Jiang Hanchen chuckled and nodded in agreement.
Their relationship ended silently, and even the boundaries of the beginning were blurred, and it was not clear when the relationship began, or if it was his wishful thinking from the beginning, he could no longer tell the difference.
If it was wishful thinking, he wanted to see it at first sight from the first time they met in the revolving door, but unfortunately their fate did not allow them to go in the same direction.
When he went downstairs, the atmosphere in the elevator was very quiet, and Tang Luoran didn't care about the embarrassment, standing next to Jiang Hanchen, but his mind was full of Fu Zichen - I don't know if he woke up? Will you wake up and panic because you can't see her?
Seeing that the number of elevator floors was decreasing little by little, Jiang Hanchen hesitated for a while, and decided to tell her, "I don't know if it's appropriate to tell you this, before Fu Zichen was shot yesterday, he called me and said please take good care of you." ”
It can be seen that Fu Zichen was prepared from the beginning that if something happened, she would definitely not be affected.
"That's what he told you?!" Tang Luoran's eyes widened, obviously she didn't know about this matter, she thought that he just expected that something would happen, but she didn't expect him to think about it so thoughtfully.
Is there still a need to hide it?
Jiang Hanchen nodded, with a calm attitude, "Probably Fu Zichen already knew that something was going to happen to him at that time, but his first thought was that he was afraid that you would be injured, I think he should also be sincere, otherwise he would not have taken his life to protect you." ”
His heart seemed to be torn apart, Tang Luoran covered his heart, frowning in pain.
She hung her head, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
And Jiang Hanchen understood her thoughts, reached out and rubbed her hair distressedly, and then hurriedly withdrew it, not daring to stay too long.
Otherwise, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but regret it.
