It was an extremely sunny day, with warm winds mixed with the salty smell of the sea constantly blowing on the bodies of every visitor and seeping into everyone's hearts. The warm feeling and salty taste are very intoxicating.

It seems that today is indeed a good time to come out and play. Especially on this world-famous cable-stayed bridge across the sea, it is full of people and tourists.

The bridge, called the Bauhinia Bridge, has attracted countless tourists from home and abroad since it was built 15 years ago, as it is the longest sea-crossing bridge in the world. And the sea area where the bridge is located also has a nice name - Dolphin Bay.

The bridge connects the world's largest island city, Bauhinia City, and the famous coastal city of Baichuan across the sea. Standing on the bridge, you can not only overlook the beautiful sea view, but also smell the unique fragrance of redbuds.

In the sea under the bridge, you can still see dolphins chasing and playing from time to time, and what is more attractive is that you can occasionally see beautiful women in swimsuits posing in various graceful poses, standing on the back of dolphins and performing dazzling trick dances.

The slightly arched orange-red fashion bridge is like a rainbow across the sky on the sea, which is breathtaking. And the silver-gray cables that densely pull the bridge body give people a strong visual tension, as if a trace of Qinxuan has been submerged from the sea into the clouds.

Countless seagulls in the sky circled around the cable in a neat array, and from time to time they chirped extremely cheerfully, coupled with the pedestrians walking back and forth on the bridge deck, as well as passing vehicles, it was like a note overflowing from the piano hyun, playing the most beautiful heavenly sound.

Everything is so warm and harmonious and pleasing to the eye. Almost all the tourists on the bridge are smiling, sometimes screaming, sometimes holding up their mobile phones to take selfies, as if they will leave lifelong regrets if they do not release the happiness of their whole bodies.

However, this is not the case for all tourists, for example, at this moment, a middle-aged man stared at the distance with a sad face and lost his mind for a long, long time.

Behind him stood a very young and beautiful girl, the expression on her face was the same sadness, but in her sadness there was also a strong unwillingness and sympathy.

The girl's name is Ni Na, she is 26 years old this year, and she is a top student who graduated from a famous foreign university. She also graduated with a double degree in medicine and psychology, and after graduating and working in the best hospitals abroad for two years, she resolutely gave up the excellent working environment and good remuneration to return to China.

After returning to China, she did not choose to work in a big hospital, but worked as a hospice at the largest Bauhinia Seaside Sanatorium in Bauhinia City. Bauhinia City is not only the largest island in the country, but also the only city in the country that is full of bauhinia flowers, and also has the best beach in the country, so the Bauhinia Sanatorium is also the best private sanatorium in the country.

The so-called hospice service she is engaged in is actually to accompany terminally ill patients to live as happily and happily as possible in the last days of their lives, so that patients can finally leave this world without regrets.

The reason why she gave up her good future as an attending physician in a big hospital and chose this inconspicuous small career is because she has always had a regret in her heart, that is, she failed to fulfill her responsibilities as a daughter during the dying time of her adoptive father.

Her adoptive father suffered from liver cancer two years ago, because he usually did not pay attention to his body, and he was particularly fond of drinking, and when he was extremely unwell, he was already in an advanced stage when he was sent to the hospital, and he died after only half a month in the hospital.

At that time, Ni Na was studying abroad for graduate school, and it was the most intense stage of her studies before graduation, and she would graduate in half a month. In order to avoid his illness affecting his daughter's studies, her adoptive father forcibly endured his thoughts and did not tell his daughter the truth.

Because he knows that this last half month is the most critical period for his daughter to be busy with her graduation thesis, anyway, there is still half a month at most, and her daughter will naturally come back to see him after completing the thesis defense, so why bother to deliberately ask her to rush back.

Although he knew that he would die soon, he was still confident that he would hold on for another half a month, and as long as he saw his daughter one last time, he would die without regrets. However, on the night before half a month was about to arrive, he had just finished talking on the phone with his daughter, who had boarded the plane and was about to return to China to see him, and his condition suddenly deteriorated, and his abdomen quickly became swollen like a pregnant woman.

Before dying, while vomiting blood, he entrusted a nurse to tell his daughter that if he wanted to know about her biological parents, he would go to the Baichuan City Procuratorate to inquire about a case 23 years ago, case number BC19980526007.

It's just that he is not sure that he will be able to find out about her biological parents through this case, but this is also the only secret he has hidden from her in his life. Originally, he was entrusted to keep this secret forever, but at the moment of death, he decided to tell his daughter, because she had the right to know about her biological parents.

Because Ni Na's flight had already taken off and her mobile phone was turned off, the hospital was unable to notify her of her adoptive father's death in time. As soon as Ni Na got off the plane, the moment she turned on her mobile phone, she received a voice message from the hospital, and the moment she listened to the message, she rushed out of the airport and rushed to the hospital like crazy.

In the taxi, her mind is full of the figure of her adoptive father, in her memory, she and her adoptive father have lived together since she was a child, in order to avoid that her stepmother may not be able to treat her well, her adoptive father never married.

So although she grew up and became sensible, she didn't feel sad when she knew that it was not her biological father who raised her with hard work, because it was enough to have an adoptive father who loved her like this in this life. On the contrary, he didn't miss his biological parents who ruthlessly abandoned him.

When she rushed to the hospital morgue in grief and saw her father's body, which was distorted and deformed by the swelling, she fell to her knees and cried for a long, long time.

If it weren't for the nurse who had been caring for her adoptive father during this time helping her out of the morgue, she might have been crying all the time. In addition to telling her adoptive father's last words, the nurse also told her that during her adoptive father's hospitalization, every time he woke up, he stared at the door of the ward with the most expectant eyes for a long time.

Obviously, her adoptive father was so lonely and tormented in the last days of his life, he must have lived like a year, and he was always looking forward to being able to come back to stay by his side and accompany him through the last days of his life.

After dealing with her adoptive father's funeral and entrusting her adoptive father's house to a friend, she went abroad again, because only abroad would her heart not hurt so much. It is only abroad that she can deceive herself and deceive herself, her adoptive father is still alive and well at home, and only in this way can she live less painfully every day.

It wasn't until two full years passed that she came out of the grief of losing her adoptive father. In the past two years, she can only forget the pain when she works hard. Even if she came home late, she often had insomnia, and even when she just fell asleep, she would dream that her adoptive father was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes open, stretching out his hand and trying to summon her, and every time she would shout loudly for his adoptive father to wake up from his dream.

Not being able to stay by her adoptive father's side when he needed her the most, so that her adoptive father's last days of happiness and happiness was always a thorn in her heart, and every time in the dead of night, this thorn would get bigger and sharper, and it would always pierce her whole body.

That's why she decided to give up her privileged life abroad two years later and returned to China again. Coming to the nursing home where her adoptive father last lived, she wanted to choose a patient of the same age as her adoptive father, and do her best to let the patient leave this world without any regrets, so as to make up for the biggest regret in her heart, only in this way can her future life return to normal, otherwise she will only live in pain forever.

Today is her second day of official work in the nursing home, and the middle-aged man in front of her is a patient of her hospice service. The patient's name is Liang Jianying, and his life experience is also extremely miserable. It is said that he was also a top student who graduated from a famous foreign architecture school, and he was one of the youngest well-known architects more than 20 years ago.

He designed the world-famous cable-stayed bridge more than 20 years ago, but he did not expect a serious quality accident to occur during the construction of the bridge, resulting in the death of dozens of construction workers.

Eventually, the cause of the accident was determined to be a design flaw. Liang Jianying, as the general manager of the design, was naturally imprisoned and sentenced to life imprisonment. I thought I would spend the rest of my life in prison, but I didn't expect that he was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer half a year ago, and unless someone was willing to donate bone marrow to him, he would have to wait for death.

How could a criminal who caused such heavy casualties back then receive the support and help of members of society? Moreover, the conditions for bone marrow transplantation are very harsh, and it is not possible to transplant by random donation, and it is best to have blood relatives and immediate family members, especially children, to donate to increase the success rate of surgery.

And when he was imprisoned, he was not married, he had no children at all, and his other relatives completely cut off contact with him after he confessed to the crime, that is, he had no hope but to die.

And he himself was very peaceful, he didn't ask anyone, he didn't blame anyone, and he was ready to die of illness in prison.

Just to his surprise, when the public security hospital ruled that he would have to live for a month at most, a well-wisher came forward to apply for medical parole for him, and paid a huge amount of money to send him to the best bauhinia sanatorium in the country.

On the day he was sent to the sanatorium, Ni Na also happened to come to this sanatorium to report, and after reading Liang Jianying's information, she chose to serve him without hesitation.

First, Liang Jianying's overseas study background is similar to hers, and she can have a common language; Second, he is almost the same age as her adoptive father, and he looks a little similar, which makes her feel inexplicably kind. Although he is still a criminal, after all, he has been in prison for more than 20 years, and he has also borne the punishment he deserves, not to mention that there is still one month left to live, and Ni Na automatically ignores this problem.

Today is her first day of serving Liang Jianying, and when she accompanied Liang Jianying to eat breakfast in the morning, at the request of Liang Jianying, they came to the Bauhinia Bridge together. Since she wants to accompany Liang Jianying to spend her last days happily, Ni Na naturally tries her best to meet all the reasonable requirements of the patient.

After all, he had designed the bridge and built it many years after he had been in prison, so it was understandable that he wanted to see for himself what his design would look like when it was finished.

So Ni Na accompanied Liang Jianying from the sanatorium to the bridge slowly, after coming to the bridge, Liang Jianying first carefully inspected the bridge, and then stood silently in front of the railing, looking into the depths of the sea in the distance, and fell into contemplation.
