"Is it also a luxury for a dying man to ask for a Christmas present he wants?"

Suspecting that there was a mistake in hearing, Ruan En's hand that had just been put down grabbed the other party's sleeve again, and she turned her body towards the man, surprised and incredulous, her eyes staring at Gu Ren tightly.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

The temperature of the dark night was getting lower and lower, Ruan En was only wearing a thin sweater, her body was a little shrunken, but she didn't care too much, just blindly asked the person in front of her.

"Speak."

Seeing her anxious look, Gu Ren turned to let go of the hand covering her body and smiled.

"Sure enough, you're still so easy to deceive."

There was a moment of stunnedness, and when Ruan En reacted, he was almost about to open his mouth to scold the other party, but the man took the lead in interrupting those unspoken questions.

"Okay, I won't tease you, I really have something to do, I'll talk about it next time."

Ruan En took a deep breath and thought about it, but he still felt that something was wrong. Gu Ren was about to get into the car, but she pulled him back again, her eyes were extremely sharp for the first time, as if she was examining the credibility of the other party's words. Gu Ren habitually raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, and the two looked at each other for a long time. In the end, Ruan Encai finally came to a conclusion, and forgot that he should be honored as a big brother. She said, "I know Gu Ren, you won't lie to me." ”

I know, you won't lie to me.

The man's face slowly fell silent, no one said to him, I know you won't lie to me. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he can be ruthless, just to achieve his own goals, and the little woman in front of him actually said to him, I believe you. Ruan En felt embraced into a strange embrace, the feeling and taste were completely different from Gu Xiliang, it should be said that there was no taste, only the smell of fabric. She forgot to push it away, or, she remembered, just didn't want to let go at such a moment, when the other person needed it most.

How can you be so cruel to someone who has given you warmth? At least Ruan En couldn't do that, so he let the other party hug. And constantly suppressed the guilt of sudden anger in his heart, and kept reminding himself: It's just a hug between friends, it's not a big deal.

For a long time, Gu Ren's hands showed no signs of letting go, and finally he let out a long sigh.

"I don't want anyone to know."

Ruan En pursed his lips and squeezed out a "Okay." Then he asked as if he remembered something, "What's the problem?" ”

"Liver."

"When did you find out? What do doctors say? ”

The man is patient and answers all questions.

"Soon after you returned to Taipei. What else can be said? Treatment is recommended. But I've never liked the smell of hospitals, so let's see, maybe after this busy while, see if it's an operation or something. ”

Hearing that indifferent tone, Ruan En was a little annoyed.

"Why do I think you're not positive about your health at all?"

Gu Ren pursed his lips silently, "Are you caring about me?" ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Ruan En almost blurted out, she said, "Yes, I care about you." Either way, I've always treated you like family, both before I went to the U.S. and after I came back. ”

"But Ruan Ruan, I really don't like the feeling of being alone in the hospital, listening to the ticking of the hour and minute, worrying about how many days are left in the future. You know, I hate being underdog. ”

And then there was no one to take the white.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and a taxi drove past Ruan En and Gu Ren, and the young people celebrating Christmas were crazily sticking their heads out of the car windows and whistling at the two of them. The car went a long way, and you could still hear hahaha laughter.

"No, at least with me, I'll be with you."

Take care of you as you took care of me. Are you willing to think of it as a matter of care or reciprocation, in short, Gu Ren, I will not let you lie alone on a hospital bed without temperature, waiting for the cold verdict.

The city is lit up with neon, lights are lit up in front of every house, and naughty children hold hands with their parents and play around to make wishes. The white Bentley had been parked at an intersection not far away.

The man in the driver's seat stared at the two people who hugged each other warmly like a couple under the street lamp in front of him, for a moment.

Gu Xiliang's left hand was still on the steering wheel, and his fingertips unconsciously stroked the cold dashboard over and over again, as if he was thinking about something. Finally, he put the small brocade box that he had been playing with in the palm of his right hand back into the container where the sundries were placed in the back seat of the car. In that small brocade box, there were two Ca lying down

tie

The names of the two are engraved in the small circles: C-X L, C-R EN. The style is simple and generous, in the half-circle hollow pattern, evenly inlaid with small diamonds, the women's ring is 3, the men's ring is only 1, and together it is 1, 3.

One, raw.

Working overtime and rushing thousands of miles to come back, just for the unparalleled in my heart.

Oh, Wushuang.

Shifting and reversing, the figures of the two gradually disappeared in Gu Xiliang's eyes, and the car roared in the direction of the Grand Hyatt Hotel. Maybe it's really not a good time for him to appear now.

The next day, Ruan En accompanied Gu Ren to the hospital, and the doctor suggested that it is best to be hospitalized if possible, and if time does not allow, at least once a week to go to the hospital for antibody injection, and then find the most suitable time for surgery. She didn't understand those medical things, so she could only look at the dark shadows on the examination films in a daze. Ruan En's mobile phone forgot to charge, and he used the universal charger to rush in the hospital for about half an hour, and after accompanying Gu Ren to inject antibodies, just turned on, Gu Xiliang's call happened to come in.

"Where are you?"

Glancing at the person beside her, Ruan En was a little weak somehow, but she felt that she had nothing to do with it, and her feelings for Gu Ren were frank and open. The main reason may be to help Gu Ren keep such a secret, she doesn't know if it's right or wrong. After all, thinking about the worst side, it may be that heaven and man are forever separated. But I have promised the other party, I can't say it, I can't say it.

Putting away the little guilt in his heart, Nguyen tried to speak calmly.

"Coming back?"

"Just arrived."

If she could, she would like to immediately throw herself into Gu Xiliang's arms, and say numbly: I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns. But in the current situation, she really can't laugh anyway, and even the answer is full of words.

"Oh, that...... Xiaoxue was in a bad mood, so I accompanied her to go shopping, and I went home later. ”

There were probably a few seconds of silence on the other side of the phone, just a few seconds, so fast that she didn't even feel anything wrong.

"Then be careful, I'll wait for you at home."

After closing the line, Ruan En let out a long breath, and Gu Ren put an inquiring gaze on her face.

"Xiliang is back?"

"Hmm."

"Let's go, I'll send you back."

"No need, I'll take a taxi back by myself, you just finished the injection and need to rest."

She was indeed worried about his body, and of course she was afraid that he would send her home, and Gu Xiliang would find out that she had lied. Gu Ren understood what he meant, and he didn't force him to stay, and accompanied her to take a taxi before leaving with confidence.

And Gu Xiliang hung up the phone normally, still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom on the second floor, slowly feeding the warm water in his hand over and over again to his lips. The same message was repeated over and over again in the passenger plane in the bedroom, which belonged to He Xue's voice.

"Get away for a while, don't worry, don't look for me."

……

As soon as Ruan En entered the door to change his slippers, Gu Xiliang happened to come down from upstairs. She stood up straight, a little hesitant in place, and somehow didn't dare to get too close to the other party, but Gu Xiliang smiled at her first.

"What loot did you go?"

Spread your hands, "I'm just a companion, there's nothing to buy......"

The man nodded thoughtfully, and the conversation changed.

"When I came back, I saw a newly opened Sichuan restaurant, which seemed to be good. Don't you like spicy food? To go or not to go? ”

Ruan En's depressed mood was swept away by Gu Xiliang's simple words at the moment, she was sure that she was thinking too much, so she took action instead of thinking, and held the other party's arm with a smile in a few steps.

"Okay."

The decoration of the newly opened Sichuan restaurant is not luxurious, it can be said that it is ordinary, but the taste is full of authenticity. Ruan En fell in love with the dish called Spicy Fish Pieces almost from the first bite, and the chopsticks rarely caught the others in the whole process. She's always been like this, falling in love with something, wanting to have it all the time, and it's hard to focus on anything else. Gu Xiliang discovered this very early, so he had so much confidence to go to the United States to bring her back. That's because he clearly knows that Ruan En is a girl who misses the old.

Seeing that her mouth was spicy, Gu Xiliang didn't stop it, but just handed over the water at the right time.

It was a lingering night, of course.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that the two fell asleep exhausted. Gu Xiliang wrapped his hand around Ruan En's body, and the hot breath in his mouth exhaled in the girl's ear, itching.

"Ruan En, do you know, in my life, I hate being deceived the most, no matter what the reason, even if it is a white lie."

"But because it's you, I'm willing to back down."

"Three times, just three times. I can act like a fool, no matter how much panic you sow, these three times, I will forgive you. ”

It was so tired that Ruan En only felt what the person in his ear was saying in a daze, and he didn't have the heart to delve into it at all, but just muttered a few "hmm" to answer. The temperature inside was warm enough, and Ruan En's small arm was exposed, she suddenly shivered, and hurriedly closed her eyes and put her hand into the quilt. So the man squeezed the quilt tighter, and the hand holding the other party tightened.

Are you so afraid of the cold? Fool.

At that moment, Gu Xiliang suddenly believed that there was really such a person in the world who made you reluctant to treat her badly.
