Before leaving, although the old man's face was full of smiles, but I knew that he was reluctant to let us go, after all, in this happy years, the child abandoned him, and was already lonely, but now because of a game of chess, the old man knew me, and I took care of him so much, the old man's soul was also a little comforted.

After a few more words to the old man, we returned home.

On November 15th, half a month passed, and on this day, all of us were idle at home, the little fox was holding the mobile phone and playing non-stop, while Lao Dai and Li Muyang were sitting in front of the computer and yelling, Sister Yu was watering flowers in the back garden, and I was fine, just sitting on the sofa holding a notebook and writing stories about what I had experienced in the past few years.

But at this moment, my mobile phone suddenly rang, I picked it up and looked, but it showed an unfamiliar number, I pressed the answer button in confusion and looked at the dense words on the laptop screen, and said: "Hey, hello".

"Is it Lin Xuan, Mr. Lin?" It was a female voice who spoke, and this female voice thought about it for a while, and I was not impressed at all, but I continued: "Ang, yes, may I ask who you are"?

"I'm from the First Hospital of the University of Medicine, and we have a patient here who said he wants to see you at the last time, you see, can you come over for a visit?"

Hearing this, I frowned directly and said, "Which patient"?

"His name is Du Minghua, he is a patient with terminal cancer, his condition suddenly deteriorated this morning, and he has collapsed on the bed and is dying, he said that he wants to see you before leaving."

Listening to the somewhat sad tone on the other side, I put the computer aside and asked in shock: "How is it possible, isn't the old man's physical condition very good the day before yesterday, how could it suddenly deteriorate."

"We don't know about this, so you might as well come over quickly."

After speaking, the other side hung up the phone directly, I squeezed the phone tightly, and my hands began to tremble unconsciously, yelling: "Hurry up and go to the hospital!" The old man can't do it"!!

After speaking, I opened the door directly and ran out, Sister Yu, Li Muyang, Lao Dai and Little Fox all ran out and said, "What? Did I hear that right? What did Lin Xuan say"?

"The old man can't do it, go, go to the hospital"! Sister Yu said.

Everyone hurriedly rushed out and got into the car to the hospital with me, on the way, Li Muyang looked at me anxiously and said: "Isn't the old man okay the day before yesterday, how can he say that it will not work."

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, it should have been the nurse from the hospital who called me just now and said that the old man wanted to see us before leaving."

"No, so suddenly." Sister Yu said with a frown and shocked.

I shook my head again and said to the driver, "Please hurry up, thank you".

The driver's eldest brother didn't speak, but I obviously felt that the speed of the car had become faster, and it didn't take long for us to arrive at the hospital, I paid a hundred fares in advance, and I didn't even ask for a fraction, and rushed directly into the hospital's inpatient department.

After arriving at the inpatient floor of Mr. Du, I saw many people gathered around the door of the ward that I was familiar with, and the door of this ward was the ward where Mr. Du was.

We all squeezed into the ward with great difficulty, but saw several doctors around the bedside of Mr. Du's bed, as if making the last rescue action, I gasped and walked over directly, looking at Mr. Du lying on the bed with his eyes closed in shock and asked, "What's wrong with the old man?" How can you say that if you can't do it, you can't do it"?

One of the doctors standing next to me shook his head, sighed and said, "We don't know, it's a sudden deterioration."

"What do you mean? You guys are doctors, and you told me you don't fucking know"??

I lost my temper and yelled as I grabbed the doctor's collar with both hands.

Lao Dai Xiaofox and Li Muyang walked up to me quickly, pulled me away, and said, "Dude, don't worry, speak slowly."

"Yes, can you not be in a hurry? Yes? I came here just to hear a clear "?? I turned my head to look at Li Muyang, but my hand was still holding on to the doctor's collar, and the doctor frowned and said, "You are a family member of the patient, right?" This is the hospital, and it won't do you any good if you make such a fuss, and we'll do our best."

"No good? Even if I beat you today, no one will dare to touch me, and if you don't make it clear today, I will definitely smash you." I raised my fist, and when Sister Yu saw this, she walked up directly and took my hand and shouted, "Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan!" Calm down, you can't be presumptuous now, listen to what they have to say."

I ignored Sister Yu, just like this stalemate with the doctor, after a few seconds, I suddenly heard Old Man Du sigh, I turned my head to look at Old Man Du, but saw him slowly open his eyes, I directly pushed the doctor in front of me, walked to Old Man Du, and hurriedly asked: "Old man, old man, you, what do you think, now."

Old man Du smiled slightly, shook his head and kept moving, but I couldn't hear what the old man was saying, I leaned my ear over and said: "Old man, you have to hold on, we can win, don't give up, don't, you said yes, you want to win for me."

Halfway through speaking, my voice suddenly choked up, some people may say, hey, it's not your real relative, do you need to play emotional drama, but I said that it was all fart, for me, I have long regarded this little old man who likes to laugh and play chess as a relative.

Old man Du slowly raised the old man's hand, I directly held the old man's hand, and listened to the old man say: "You, it's good that you're here, I, I can go with peace of mind, I really can't stand it anymore, I should have died on the battlefield at the beginning, and now let me live for a few more decades, I, I'm already content".

Hearing this, I burst into tears and cried and said, "Old man, why did you say that you were leaving, wasn't it okay the day before yesterday, I still want to play chess with you."

The corners of Old Man Du's mouth raised, his head slowly raised, and he leaned into my ear and said in the lowest voice: "Xiao Xuan, you are a good person, I can see you for the last time before I leave, I don't regret it".

The old man's voice became smaller and smaller, and then his head fell directly on the pillow, and his hand instantly loosened, I looked at the old man with wide eyes and shouted, "Old man! Old man! Don't sleep, old man"!!

Everyone understood when they heard me shout, Sister Yu also instantly turned red, covered her mouth, and the three buddies also lowered their heads and sighed heavily, the ward was very quiet, very quiet, I held the old man's hand tightly, tears had flowed all over my cheeks, I lowered my head and shoulders kept shrugging, enduring not letting myself make a crying sound, and finally I couldn't help it, and directly bit my fist, even if the tears and saliva were mixed on my hands, I didn't care, I have been looking at the old man Du who still has a smile on his face, his life, although it is plain, but it is more open than everyone else, I remember that the old man said to me, either he is busy with life or he is busy with death, but why does God tease people like this, those lawbreakers are at ease, these good people will be harmed, this world is unfair.

At this moment, I clenched my fists tightly, crying, and yelling: "Drag those three mongrels over to Lao Tzu, damn, my father is gone, and I won't come to see them, are they worthy of being humans"!!

Li Muyang didn't speak, sighed and called Team Liu directly, roughly talking about what happened, and then Li Muyang hung up the phone again, and walked back to the ward, Sister Yu walked to my side, put one hand on my shoulder, and said in a choked voice: "Lin Xuan, don't be sad, look at the old man, go peacefully, and it is also a choice to not be offended."

I lowered my head and didn't speak, I still kept holding Old Man Du's hand, but his hand slowly became cold, and it wasn't until this moment that I dared to believe that the old man had really left, really left.
