dialed three times in a row, and the phone was always turned off, Xia Nanxing's heart was faintly worried, but he couldn't find any other way to contact the uncle, so he could only put the charged battery next to the bed, waiting for him to call.

Waiting and waiting, Xia Nanxing couldn't help but feel sleepy, and finally fell asleep leaning on the head of the bed like that.

After about a few hours, the bedroom door was slowly pushed open from the outside, and a tall figure walked in through the door.

The light in the bedroom was off, and the room was dark, but the man could walk directly to the bed without turning on the light, and vaguely saw the position of the person on the bed by the moonlight.

Xia Nanxing was already waiting for the call, so she slept very lightly, so as soon as this person approached, she was woken up.

Obviously, there was darkness in front of him, and he could only vaguely see his tall figure, but Xia Nanxing felt a familiar aura.

She stretched out her hand and turned on the bedside light with a "snap", so she finally saw the appearance of the person standing by the bed.

Chi Huainan was wearing a black windbreaker, standing in front of her, her deep and handsome eyebrows and eyes overflowing with a thick smile.

"Uncle!" Xia Nanxing called out in surprise, stood up from the bed all of a sudden, threw himself into Chi Huainan's arms, and wrapped his hands tightly around his strong waist.

She never thought that Chi Huainan, who was separated from Beicheng several cities a few hours ago, would suddenly appear in front of her at this time, as if she was in a dream.

"Uncle, I'm not dreaming, am I?" Xia Nanxing raised his head from his arms, looked at Chi Huainan with a pair of eyes full of anticipation and asked, she was afraid that all this in front of her was just a dream of herself, and when she woke up, it would be empty again.

Listening to her words, Chi Huainan couldn't help but chuckle, and sat on the edge of the bed with her, letting her sit on his lap and face him.

"It's not a dream, it's real." Chi Huainan responded with a slightly hoarse voice, and in the next second, the kiss with longing and love fell deeply on Xia Nanxing's lips.

The thoughts of the few days of separation all melted into this kiss, passionate and long.

It wasn't until a long time later that Xia Nanxing was kissed by him and had no strength, and Chi Huainan ended the kiss, and she lay weakly in his arms.

Chi Huainan gently touched the wound on her neck with his fingers, and asked with a distressed face, "Does it still hurt?" ”

The moment he heard Xia Nanxing's strange voice, he immediately asked Tang Jingyan to set the latest flight, but the latest one was three hours later, Chi Huainan couldn't wait at all, and finally drove all the way back to Beicheng from Liangcheng at high speed, in order to see her as soon as possible.

It just so happened that before the call was made, there was no power to shut down, and Chi Huainan didn't even have the heart to pack his luggage at that time, let alone care about it. So it hasn't been charged.

When he was on the road, he had already asked people to find out what happened to Xia Nanxing today.

When he heard his subordinates report that she was injured because she was held hostage with a knife by an absconding criminal this morning, Chi Huainan really felt that his breathing had stopped at that moment, and the high-speed car was almost about to crash into the cross-sea bridge.

This little girl who was held in the palm of his hand seemed to be inseparable from him for a moment, and she must be well protected by his side, so that Chi Huainan could feel at ease.

Hearing Chi Huainan's question, Xia Nanxing quickly shook his head, the hands holding his waist turned into arms around his neck, his head gently leaned on his shoulder and rubbed, and then raised his lips and chuckled: "It doesn't hurt, with my uncle by my side, I can't feel any pain." ”

Chi Huainan listened to her words, and the pity in his eyes was even more obvious.

His broad palm held Xia Nanxing's cold hand tightly, and his fingertips rubbed gently against her delicate and smooth skin, as if he was treating that rare treasure with care.

Xia Nanxing was hugged by Chi Huainan like this for a while before he finally remembered a question. The head was lifted from Chi Huainan's shoulder, a pair of watery eyes looked at his deep eyes, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Uncle, aren't you on a business trip in Liangcheng, why did you come back suddenly?" ”

"I'm done with work, so I'm back." Chi Huainan listened to her question, chuckled and asked, "Don't Nannan want me to come back so soon?" ”

"Of course not, I can't eat or sleep when my uncle is not around!" Xia Nanxing responded with a low smile, then leaned his head on his shoulder again, and the two hugged each other quietly.

Even if they don't say anything, don't do anything, just hug each other quietly, it's already a very happy thing for them.

After hugging her for a while, Chi Huainan finally reluctantly let go of her, and then packed up a change of clothes and went into the bathroom to take a bath.

By the time he came out of the shower, Xia Nanxing was already sitting on the bed nodding his head constantly, but every time he forced himself to open his eyes and not let himself fall asleep.

Looking at her like this, Chi Huainan felt a feeling of distress in his heart, he immediately lifted the quilt, hugged Xia Nanxing tightly in his arms, and the two of them lay on the bed together.

"Sleep, I've always been there." Chi Huainan lowered his head and landed a kiss on Xia Nanxing's forehead, and said in a low voice.

Xia Nanxing was already very sleepy at this time, and after vaguely hearing what Chi Huainan said, he nodded lightly and shouted sweetly: "Good night, uncle!" ”

"Good night." As soon as Chi Huainan's words fell, the woman in his arms quickly fell asleep.

Listening to the steady breathing of the person next to him, Chi Huainan only felt a strong sense of satisfaction and happiness, and the hand holding her tightened a little more, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep with her.

This night, both of them slept exceptionally peacefully.

Until the next morning, when Xia Nanxing woke up from his sleep, the sky outside was already bright.

She subconsciously reached out to the place where Chi Huainan was lying beside her. But the outstretched hand touched the air, and her brain, which was still a little confused just now, instantly woke up and sat up from the bed at once.

The whole room was empty, and I didn't see Chi Huainan's figure at all.

"Could it be that I was dreaming last night?" Xia Nanxing sat on the bed, scratched his head, and muttered in an uncertain voice.

Everything last night was so real, it shouldn't be a dream, but why did the uncle disappear?

Xia Nanxing couldn't figure out this problem, and was about to pick up and call Chi Huainan, when the closed bedroom door was suddenly pushed open, and then he saw Chi Huainan wearing gray home clothes, pushing the door with one hand and a tray in the other.

"Uncle!" Xia Nanxing shouted to him in surprise, and directly lifted the quilt and ran out of bed and threw himself into Chi Huainan's arms.

Chi Huainan's hand holding the tray trembled, and he almost knocked the tray over.

He lowered his head slightly, looking at Xia Nanxing's white feet stepping on the cold floor like that, and his brows couldn't help frowning. put the tray in his hand on the table, reached out and picked Xia Nanxing up horizontally, and then gently put her on the bed.

Chi Huainan put one hand around Xia Nanxing's waist and propped up the wall at the head of the bed with the other, imprisoning her in his arms.

Looking at each other, Chi Huainan asked in a deep voice, "Nannan, do you remember the last time I said what the punishment for getting out of bed without shoes was?" ”

Hearing Chi Huainan's question, Xia Nanxing was stunned for a moment, looking at him blankly with big eyes, and didn't think about what the punishment he said was for a while.

"Next time you don't get out of bed with your shoes on, I'll make you unable to get out of bed for three days." Chi Huainan knew that she couldn't remember, so she reminded with a smile.

As soon as Xia Nanxing heard what he said, he finally remembered, his face instantly turned red with shame, and he muttered and explained: "I woke up just now and didn't see my uncle, I thought everything that happened last night was just a dream I had." ”

"Silly girl." Chi Huainan lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead, pinned her broken hair behind her ears with his fingers and smiled: "Now you know that this is not a dream, right?" Go change your clothes and get up, breakfast is ready. ”

Xia Nanxing hugged Chi Huainan's waist tightly, nestled in his arms and said with emotion: "Uncle, you are so good, you will spoil me like this!" ”

"My job is to spoil you." Chi Huainan raised his lips and chuckled, then put on Xia Nanxing's coat of home clothes, and bent down to help her put on her slippers.

After washing up and changing clothes, Xia Nanxing and Chi Huainan nested on the sofa, chatting while eating breakfast.

At this time, Xia Nanxing shook the head of the bed, and then reminded her that there was a new short message.

She took out two tissues and wiped her somewhat greasy hands, trotted to pick up the phone, and as soon as she unlocked it, she saw a text message from Shu Qianxi.

The general content of the text message was that something happened to her Shu family, so she was discharged from the hospital today, so that Xia Nanxing didn't have to go to the hospital again.

Xia Nanxing was a little worried about her, so after reading the text message, she immediately called back, but Shu Qianxi's phone couldn't get through.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the anxious look on her face, Chi Huainan asked worriedly.

Xia Nanxing walked back to Chi Huainan's side and sat down, handed it to Chi Huainan, and motioned for him to look at the text message.

"Uncle, do you think something will happen to Qianxi? I called her and couldn't get through. Xia Nanxing frowned and looked at Chi Huainan, his tone full of anxiety and worry.

After reading the text message, Chi Huainan put it on the coffee table on the side, then reached out and hugged Xia Nanxing into his arms, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, it'll be fine, she may be busy, and she will call you back when she is done." ”

"I hope so." Xia Nanxing listened to Chi Huainan's words and nodded approvingly, but he was still very worried in his heart.

At this time, Shu Qianxi, after sending a text message to Xia Nanxing, immediately stuffed the shutdown into his bag, and then urged the taxi driver to drive faster.

She received a call from her mother Fang Xinlan early this morning, saying that her father Shu Chuan was sick and asked her to go home quickly, and her tone sounded very anxious.

Shu Qianxi didn't know what was going on, but listening to her mother's anxious tone, she didn't dare to delay, so she quickly went through the discharge procedures, and then stopped a taxi and rushed towards Shu's house.

Half an hour later, the taxi finally stopped at the gate of the Shu family's villa, hurriedly paid the fare, and Shu Qianxi ran quickly towards the villa.

As soon as I entered the door of Shu's house, I saw Fang Xinlan and the family doctor sitting on the sofa in the living room talking, and their expressions looked very solemn.

"Mom." Shu Qianxi shouted Fang Xinlan, and then quickly ran to her side and asked anxiously, "How is my dad?" ”

Hearing Shu Qianxi's question, a trace of grief crossed Fang Xinlan's face, and the emotions that she had been holding back finally broke out, and she began to cry as soon as she hugged Shu Qianxi.

Fang Xinlan was so excited that she couldn't speak at this time, so she could only hug her and cry bitterly. And Shu Qianxi listened to her mother's cry, her heart was hanging high, anxious and worried.

Seeing that her mother's emotions couldn't stabilize for a while, Shu Qianxi hurriedly looked at the family doctor on the side and asked anxiously, "Doctor Chen, what's wrong with my dad?" ”

"Miss, master, he ......" The family doctor looked at Shu Qianxi sadly, but when the words came to his mouth, he seemed to be unable to say anything at all.

Shu Qianxi looked at him like this, his heart was like a fire, and he shouted anxiously: "You mean, what's wrong with my dad!" "Sir, he'...... It is already advanced stage of lung cancer. After the family doctor said this sentence in a deep voice, he turned his head away suddenly, and couldn't bear to look at Shu Qianxi.

And after Shu Qianxi heard his words, his face turned pale, and his face was incredulous.

"No...... No way...... It's absolutely impossible! Shu Qianxi's arm holding Fang Xinlan was trembling violently, her eyes had become red, and her mouth kept repeating this sentence.

Shu Chuan's health has always been very good. Even the common cold and cough are rare, how can it be that just a little sickness can become an advanced stage of lung cancer?

It can't be, absolutely impossible!

"Miss, I know you don't believe it, but it's true." The family doctor sighed heavily: "Half a year ago, the old man has been found to be in the middle and advanced stages of lung cancer, he is afraid that you will worry, so he has been secretly treating, but the effect of the treatment is not obvious, the cancer cells have spread in the past few days, so it has reached an advanced stage." ”

Every time the family doctor said a word, Shu Qianxi's face turned white, and finally turned completely pale, almost without any blood.

If it weren't for Fang Xinlan's support, her whole body would almost be paralyzed to the ground.

After taking a few deep breaths, Shu Qianxi finally asked in a dumb voice, "Now, is there any treatment plan?" ”

"The cancer has spread, and with today's level of treatment, there is no way to do it at home and abroad. We can only use the most conservative method now to extend the life of the old man as much as possible, but in this way, he will be very miserable......"

In fact, Shu Qianxi knew very well what the family doctor said, she just didn't want to believe it.

After a long while, Fang Xinlan's mood finally calmed down a little.

"Xiaoxi, you go up and see your father first, he still has something to say to you." Fang Xinlan patted Shu Qianxi's hand and said in a choked voice.

Shu Qianxi nodded, turned around and walked up the stairs quickly.

Standing at the door of the bedroom, Shu Qianxi took several deep breaths, and finally calmed down his emotions, and then forced out a smile, pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as I pushed the door open and entered, I saw Shu Chuan lying quietly on the bed, his eyes closed, and his face, which was originally very energetic, had become almost lifeless at this time.

Shu Qianxi walked to the side of the bed with difficulty, reached out to hold Shu Chuan's hand, tried to suppress his tears, and called softly: "Dad." ”

Hearing her call, Shu Chuan's originally closed eyes slowly opened, and his hand held her hand with some difficulty.

"Creek." Shu Chuan called her in a hoarse voice, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

Shu Qianxi looked at him like this, and the tears that had been suppressed were completely uncontrollable, and they continued to fall down his eyes, and the hot tears fell on the hands of the two of them.

"Dad, don't worry, it's going to be fine, you're going to be fine." Shu Qianxi sucked? Zi, Qiang smiled and comforted Shu Chuan.

Shu Chuan listened to her words, just smiled bitterly and shook his head, he knew his own body very well, now that it has reached this point, where can it get better?

"Xiaoxi, Dad has something to give to you." Shu Chuan's hand trembled and took out a yellow document bag from under the pillow and handed it to Shu Qianxi: "Open it and take a look." ”

Shu Qianxi opened the document bag in her hand suspiciously, took out a document from it, and when she saw the content written on the document, her face changed instantly.

This turned out to be a suicide note, and the content of the suicide note turned out to be to give 70% of Shu's property to Shu Qianxi, and the remaining 30% to Chi Shaoqian.

"Dad......" Shu Qianxi opened his mouth to speak, but Shu Chuan opened his mouth first.

"Xiaoxi, your parents only have one daughter, we have been spoiled since childhood, and we will never force you to do what you don't want to do. But now that I'm like this, I can't take care of the company's affairs anymore. I can only pin my hope on you. After Shu Chuan finished speaking, he gasped heavily: "I know that you don't understand the company's affairs, you can go to Shao Qian to help you." I know that the Chi family's condition has been very bad recently, and if the two of you manage it together, with the help of the Shu family, the Chi family will be fine. ”

After Shu Chuan finished saying this long paragraph, he fell silent and looked at Shu Qianxi quietly.

Shu Qianxi was already very emotional when he saw this suicide note, and now he heard him say such a thing, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

If it had been before, Shu Chuan would have no opinion on making this decision, but now, Chi Shaoqian has done such a thing, and the marriage between them does not know how long it can last, Shu Chuan gave 30% of the Shu family's property to Chi Shaoqian, which is really a bit hasty.

But because Shu Chuan and Fang Xinlan have always wanted her to live a carefree life, she has been doing what she likes since elementary school, such as painting and dancing, and has never been exposed to shopping malls.

If she is left alone, she will definitely not be able to bear such a heavy burden as Shu's.

Now it seems that the most suitable candidate is really only Chi Shaoqian left.

Just as Shu Qianxi was hesitating how to speak, the bedroom door was pushed open again, and it was Fang Xinlan who led Chi Shaoqian in.

Shu Qianxi looked at the sudden appearance of Chi Shaoqian before he came back to his senses, he saw him walk to the side of the bed and whispered to Shu Chuan: "Dad." ”

Shu Chuan nodded with satisfaction: "Shaoqian, my days are numbered, and you will have to take good care of our creek in the future." ”

"Dad, don't worry, I've contacted the best doctors and hospitals with the most advanced technology, and I will definitely cure you when the time comes." Chi Shaoqian's eyes seemed to be slightly red, and his tone of voice became choked: "Qianxi is my wife, I will definitely take good care of her, you can rest assured." ”

Shu Qianxi on the side listened to Chi Shaoqian's words. There was a look of surprise on his face.

This kind of Ji Shaoqian made her feel very surprised, and she didn't even know how much of what he said was true and how much was false.

Just as Shu Qianxi was looking at Chi Shaoqian intently, he suddenly turned his head and collided with her gaze.

Those deep eyes seemed to be overflowing with tenderness, and they were no longer as cold as before.

"Okay, with your words, I can rest assured that I will hand over Qianxi and Shushi to you." Shu Chuan nodded again and again with a relieved smile on his face.

Shu Qianxi looked at his parents so relieved, and could only swallow all the words that were about to come out of his stomach.

Originally, Shu Qianxi wanted Shu Chuan to be admitted to the hospital, but because there were still a few days before the New Year, they felt that it was really unlucky to spend the New Year in the hospital, so they didn't want to go. Shu Qianxi's persuasion for a long time was useless, and in the end he had no choice but to compromise.

stayed at Shu's house until the evening, Shu Qianxi was still reluctant to leave, she really wanted to be by Shu Chuan's side twenty-four hours a day, and make up for the missing time.

It wasn't until Shu Chuan fell asleep after taking the medicine that Shu Qianxi reluctantly left the room.

"Xiaoxi, Shaoqian, the room has been cleaned up, you guys should rest early." Fang Xinlan looked at her daughter's tired appearance, and stroked her head distressedly: "You haven't eaten dinner, why don't your mother go and cook something for you to eat?" ”

Shu Qianxi looked at her mother's tired face, and there seemed to be tears rolling in her eyes, but she kept holding back and didn't shed it.

Reaching out to wipe away the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, Shu Qianxiqiang said with a smile: "No need, I'm still losing weight!" Mom, you also rest early, I'm next door, and you can call me anytime if you have anything. ”

Fang Xinlan nodded, turned around and entered the bedroom.

As soon as the bedroom door was closed, only Shu Qianxi and Chi Shaoqian were left in the corridor, Shu Qianxi looked at the closed door intently, and Chi Shao
