There are too many unexpected side branches in life, even if the sunset is twilight, there may still be wind and rain tomorrow, the kite in the hand will be broken, people can never predict the future, all they can do is to grasp the present.

Lu Shiqi came back from school today and felt that the atmosphere in the house was obviously wrong, Lu Zhiyuan just called Su Nian and told Su Nian: "At five o'clock this afternoon, Lu Shiqi's father died. ”

Su Nian didn't know how to tell Lu Shiqi the news, she clearly understood how hard the death of relatives and friends was to the person concerned, she had no way to say this to a minor without scruples, and the person who died was probably the world in her fifteen-year-old life for Lu Shiqi.

How does she tell a girl that your sky is falling.

Lu Zhiyuan saw Su Nian's desire to speak and stopped: "Little aunt, what's wrong with you?" Do you have something to ask for? Don't worry, for the sake of such a good relationship between the two of us, I will help you keep it secret if I can help you keep it secret. "What I can't help you keep it secret is because Mr. Lu is satisfied with the price.

Su Nian hadn't spoken yet, she had already felt a dry hair in her throat, her eyes were gradually red, and she said with a crying voice: "Your father died"

She didn't know how she told Lu Shiqi such cruel seven words, Lu Shiqi couldn't believe what she heard, she pretended to be relaxed and said: "Although the two of us have a good relationship, don't joke about this matter, otherwise I will be anxious with you." "How could Lao Lu be? Su Nian's joke this time was too annoying.

Su Nian's hand was quietly clenched behind his back: "I'm sorry Shiqi, I'm not kidding, your little uncle just told me that the hospital called him at five o'clock and said that Lao Lu had passed away, and he asked the doctor to tell you the news." ”

Lu Shiqi subconsciously shook her head, and her heart hurt for a while: "Hey, don't joke with me, today is not April Fool's Day." ”

Su Nian sobbed: "I'm sorry, I don't know what to do...... But this news is really true, Shiqi, your father has lung cancer, and only his attending doctor knows about it, and we don't know, including the news of your father's hospitalization. ”

Lu Shiqi said hoarsely: "Don't say it again, the last time I saw Lao Lu, he also accompanied me to visit the commercial street of Z City, and the jokes should be stopped in moderation." ”

Su Nian walked over and hugged her: "I'm sorry I didn't let you see his last face"

Lu Shiqi gradually stopped struggling, tears gradually lowered, on Su Nian's left shoulder, her clothes gradually wet, and then Su Nian heard Lu Shiqi's crying getting louder and louder: "I don't believe you must be lying to me, I beg you little aunt, you tell me, you are lying to me, I won't bother with you about this prank." ”

Su Nian heard the little girl's cry, and her eyes were full of tears: "I'm sorry, I'll accompany you to City C now"

Lu Shiqi struggled out of Su Nian's embrace, and due to the imbalance of gravity, she sat on the ground all of a sudden, her ponytail was scattered, and she was stunned.

Su Nian couldn't stop feeling distressed when he saw Lu Shiqi's appearance: "I have also experienced this kind of pain, I can understand how uncomfortable you feel in your heart, now you are going to accompany me to see him for the last time, after all, you are the only one by his side now." ”

Two lines of tears flowed down from Lu Shiqi's eyes again, and she sobbed: "This is not true, I will go to C City to test it myself." ”

He stumbled to his feet, ran to his room to get his ID card, and ran to the outside of the villa.

Seeing this, Su Nian hurriedly chased after Lu Shiqi, she held Lu Shiqi tightly in her arms, and then told her: "You calm down now, the ticket has been bought." ”

Lu Shiqi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Then let's hurry up, I want to check it in person to see if this is Lao Lu playing with me, do you know that she always likes to make this kind of joke with me?" I used to ask me what would I do if my father died. ”

Then she happily told Lao Lu: "What can I do if my father dies?" Of course I am happy to live, after all, it is really happy to live without my father. ”

Every time he hears this kind of answer, Lao Lu will be stupid: "This kind of thinking is the best, it is true that people have a day when they are born, old, sick and die, and it is not a particularly important thing for my father to go, so you will live well and live the glory of Lao Lu." ”

Su Nian, who came out, did not close the door of the villa, and her relevant documents were also placed in the villa, she said to Lu Shiqi: "Then can you go back to the villa first, and we will leave together later." ”

Sitting on the high-speed train back to City C, Lu Shiqi lay on the seat and couldn't stop crying.

Su Nian took out a handkerchief and helped Lu Shiqi wipe the endless tears from the corners of her eyes.

After getting out of the car, the two of them took a taxi directly to the hospital, and when they arrived at the gate of the hospital, Lu Shiqi's tense and fast pace along the way suddenly slowed down, and then stopped at the gate of the hospital.

Lu Shiqi's legs couldn't stop trembling, she felt that you were about to fall to the ground as soon as it was dark in front of you, Su Nian grabbed Lu Shiqi tightly, and Lu Shiqi didn't fall down.

Su Nian said anxiously, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Lu Shiqi forced herself to open her eyes: "Let's go in, little aunt, can you help me?" ”

Su Nian couldn't say anything, she could only hold Lu Shiqi tightly and tell her through action that she would always accompany Lu Shiqi.

Su Nian didn't know what she should say to be appropriate, because when her relatives and friends died, all of them seemed to have accepted this fact, and they wanted to grieve but found that they didn't even have the strength to grieve.

Chen Dongming had already called Lao Lu's attending doctor, and the attending doctor saw that the time should have come, but he hadn't seen anyone yet, so he called Su Nian: "Hello, is it Miss Su?" I am the attending doctor of Mr. Lu Tairan, have you come to the hospital now? ”

Su Nian answered the phone with one hand and supported Lu Shiqi with the other: "Hello, we have now come to the gate of the hospital, if we want to see Mr. Lu Tairan, do we need your consent?" ”

The doctor said, "Where are you now, I will go to look for you, and then lead you directly to Mr. Lu Tairan." ”

Lu Shiqi listened to the doctor's words and knew that some things had actually been decided, but she still didn't believe that he was going to test it in person.

Following the doctor to the morgue, an eerie aura filled around them, Su Nian was a little scared in her heart, although her previous experience could be regarded as very colorful, she had experienced everything, but when she came to the morgue to see the corpse, she really had never experienced it.

Watching the doctor lift the white cloth on Lao Lu's body, Lu Shiqi threw herself at Lao Lu's corpse out of control: "How did you become like this?" Hurry up and stand up, you say you're going to protect me for the rest of my life. ”

The doctor and Su Nian hurriedly stopped Lu Shiqi's behavior, and the doctor had seen a lot of birth, old age, sickness and death every day: "The deceased is gone, please let him rest in peace"

It turned out that this was the daughter that Mr. Lu Tairan had been thinking about before, leaving the small child alone in the world, he was not at ease until he died, and he still wanted to accompany Lu Shiqi.

Lu Tairan, this patient is the calmest he has ever seen, but also the most uneasy patient, he is not afraid of death and even longs for the day to come, but he is not worried about his daughter, and finally one day after his condition is stabilized, because of the long-term treatment, his voice has become very hoarse: "Doctor, my condition has stabilized now, I want to be discharged from the hospital, I want to see my daughter." ”

After checking Lu Tairan's data, it is very unstable, although the scope of the data is normal for the time being, but he can't guarantee whether Lu Tairan's body can withstand it after being discharged from the hospital.

In the end, in Lao Lu's pleading eyes, the doctor still agreed to his request, he is also a father, he has no way to refuse a father's request to see his daughter, this may be their last face, no matter what the reason is, he has to agree.

"You can only be discharged for one day, and the next day you have to stay in the hospital honestly."

Lao Lu laughed faintly: "Thank you for being with me at the last moment of my life"

The doctor said no more, turned and walked out of the room with the case book.

Lu Shiqi's tears couldn't stop flowing down, at that moment her world fell apart, she remembered that Lao Lu went to Z City to see herself, she was disrespectful to Lao Lu on the street, and even ignored him, she was obviously eager for his arrival, she obviously loved her very much, but she didn't say a word to him I love you, didn't say a word to him: "Father, you finally came to pick me up and go home, I have been waiting for you here for a long time." ”

Lu Shiqi's heart seemed to be tightly clenched together, there was no space to breathe loudly, and she heard her own weak voice shouting Lao Lu again and again.

From then on, she really had nothing, she was wronged and there was no place to hide, without her father's protection, no one was smiling at her that wasn't funny, and no one would tell her stupidly: "I just want you to be happy." ”

Su Nian accompanied Lu Shiqi to kneel in front of the corpse, although she had never met Lu Tairan, she admired this father for resisting the fear of death by himself, and arranged the rest of the things for the child early.

In the past, when I was sad, a pair of warm palms would always stroke my hair and listen to myself sobbing quietly, and that person would never come again.

No one can understand how sad her heart is, holding her curled legs with both hands, Lu Shiqi has entered a world where only she is mourning.

Tears snatched out of the frame from the bright eyes, covering his face with both hands, but the tears of the bean were flowing out of the middle of the fingers, the world is so big that there is no place for her to have no hesitation, and there is no old Lu in the world.

The doctor watched the two people cry bitterly in front of the corpse together, it is not a way to cry like this all the time, he understands the grief in the hearts of his relatives, but the order that should be observed, still needs to be observed.

He squatted down and said, "He had been worried, and he said that you should be alive and well without him." At least that way he can leave with peace of mind. ”
