Chapter 105: A Story of Love
Rushing back to school from the hospital that day, when I passed by the liberal arts class, I saw Chu Huoyu sitting in her place pondering, I wanted to go in and say thank you to her, but I hesitated for a moment and didn't stop.
Chu Huoyu has decided to put us in two different worlds, and I don't want her to pay attention to everything about me.
During the next period of time until the final exam, I went to the hospital every weekend to accompany Xiong Yanfei. As Xiong Yanfei's mother said, I took my homework to the hospital, and when Xiong Yanfei was tired, I wrote my homework when I was resting.
My final exam results were very unsatisfactory, although I was still the first in the class, but my overall score was compared with the science class of the first and second middle schools, and I was already ranked outside the top 100.
Father sighed at this.
Zhu Zhuwu also talked to me. He hit the nail on the head, saying that I was emotional and couldn't distinguish between the important and the important. He was right, I missed too many classes this semester, and I couldn't pay attention to the lectures. This is the main reason for my declining grades.
However, I don't pay any attention to these at all, I just want to stay with Xiong Yanfei and accompany Xiong Yanfei through her recovery period.
At that time, I naively thought that Xiong Yanfei would recover well and be able to completely defeat blood cancer.
The day of the start of the winter vacation was the day when Xiong Yanfei was discharged from the hospital and went home. Xiong Yanfei recovered quite smoothly. She would have been able to get out of bed and walk around and bask in the sun outside. Many times, I sat with her in the sun and chatted, humming songs quietly. Of course, it had to be a windless day.
On the day Xiong Yanfei was discharged from the hospital, I rushed to the hospital to help her father carry the daily necessities they had placed in the ward to the car that picked her up. On the way there, I met a little girl selling flowers, and I bought a bouquet of carnations. Xiong Yanfei was very happy to take my flowers, and put the carnation in front of her nose and sniffed it again and again.
I had dinner at Xiong Yanfei's house that day, and I stayed with Xiong Yanfei all day long, and I was very happy. The only thing I was not happy about was that people asked me about my grades, which made me very ashamed. And the whole family felt ashamed, they all felt that they had affected my learning. This made me secretly determined to make up for the missing lessons.
But what really prompted me to correct my attitude towards learning was a conversation a year later, a conversation between me and Xiong Yanfei.
It was a snowy day.
In the south, we have the impression that it has not snowed for a long time.
That day, after several days of continuous gloom, the sky suddenly began to snow heavily. From the beginning of the morning when I rushed to Xiong Yanfei's house, the snow continued to fall for six or seven hours, and it did not stop until two o'clock in the afternoon.
It's white everywhere. On the street, on the roof, on the car parked on the side of the road, on the fence of Xiong Yanfei's yard, on the rockery, in the vegetable field, everywhere was snow-white. What a world covered in silver.
Xiong Yanfei and I are very excited. Building a snowman has been planned for a long time. If Xiong Yanfei's mother hadn't stopped her, we would have all wanted to rush out and feel the snow falling into our necks when the snow kept falling.
As soon as the snow stopped, we walked out of the house. The path in the yard was piled up with a thick layer of snow. Feet on the snow make a crunching sound. The sound was soothing.
Xiong Yanfei wears a lot of clothes, like a giant panda. She wore a hat and a scarf around her neck, and she was fully armed. We all know that Xiong Yanfei can't catch a cold.
I took Xiong Yanfei's hand and walked around the yard. The air is fresh and crisp. Xiong Yanfei grabbed a ball of snow and threw it on me while I wasn't paying attention, and we chased and fought in the snow, forgetting about the illness and everything for a while. Xiong Yanfei's giggles gave me the illusion that she hadn't been seriously ill at all. But Xiong Yanfei's mother's worried call shattered my illusions. Our fight came to an abrupt end.
"Then let's build a snowman, so that my mother doesn't worry." Xiong Yanfei gasped and said.
"Let's go inside. You can't stand the cold. I said.
"It's fine. I'm all warm. In this way, you operate specifically, and I guide. Xiong Yanfei said.
"That's good."
We build a snowman next to the rockery. Xiong Yanfei gave guidance. I rolled the nearby snow to the rockery and piled the snowballs to look like a human. Xiong Yanfei took out the two black beans she had prepared a long time ago and pressed them on the snowman's head as eyeballs.
"Oops, it's so beautiful. Would you like to call Dad to take a picture with us? When the snowman was built, Xiong Yanfei said happily.
"Would your dad do it?" I say.
"Of course I do. Daddy, Daddyβ" Xiong Yanfei shouted into the room.
Xiong Yanfei's father and mother both came out.
"What's the matter?" Xiong Yanfei's father asked with a smile.
"Is something wrong?" The mother asked with concern.
"Look at the snowman, it's such a beautiful snowman," Xiong Yanfei said, "Dad took a picture of us." β
Xiong Yanfei's father returned to the house to get his camera.
On that day, not only Xiong Yanfei and I took a group photo, but also their family of three, and took several shots.
Xiong Yanfei's parents always seem to have worries that can't be eliminated.
Back in the living room to bake the fire, when only the two of us were left, Xiong Yanfei suddenly said, "Will this be the last time I will see snow?" It's really beautiful. It's so unreal. β
"What? How could it be the last time? I took Xiong Yanfei's hands in mine.
"Your hands are so cold."
"Who told you to talk nonsense?" I say.
"Do you believe I can see snow again and again?" Xiong Yanfei's eyes were sad.
"I believe it." I say.
"Don't you know that Jenny in 'The Story of Love' died of my disease?" Xiong Yanfei asked.
"Ahh You're different from Jennifer. You've found the best fit, haven't you? I've heard that there are people who have had your disease and have lived for decades, really. "I held Xiong Yanfei's hand tightly.
"I know you're comforting me. But the probability of that is very small. β
"No, I don't want you to say anything like that."
"I didn't say I'd die," Xiong Yanfei smiled, "Maybe I can also create a miracle." β
"I like Xiong Yanfei who thinks like this."
"Don't you like me if I don't think so?" Xiong Yanfei pulled his hand out of my hand.
"Nope." I say.
"You see you're inconsistent. Nervous, right? β
"I'm sweating all over my back."
"Exaggerated."
"Don't believe you're touching? I sweat as soon as I'm nervous. β
"I really touched it." But Xiong Yanfei just made a move, "Zheng Qihang, I'm thinking, how good it would be if human beings could overcome this disease." β
I looked at Xiong Yanfei.
"No, I'm not just for myself. Do you know? In the Shanghai Cancer Hospital, I have seen how many people with the same disease as mine have died in despair. Some of them can't wait for the right fit, and some can't afford the expensive treatment, so they go home in despair. And going home means death. What a cruel thing to do. I was really scared at the time. I was worried that I wouldn't find the right fit. I even felt like death was all around me, but my consciousness was clear. I kept pushing death out. I want to live. I want to live. Xiong Yanfei's tears flowed out of his eyes.
I re-grasped Xiong Yanfei's hand. "Say no more. Don't reminisce about it. You've come out. β
"But that kind of experience is not something that can be forgotten if you want to." Xiong Yanfei continued, "I found a match, but my family was almost dragged down by me. I feel so sorry for my mom and dad. You see how emaciated they are, and how much they worry about me. β
"Everything will pass." I say.
"So I hope that I can recover as soon as possible, so that my parents don't have to worry about me anymore, and on the other hand, I can go back to school. I had a very naΓ―ve idea that if I could live to go to college, I would definitely choose a medical university. I'm going to delve into the treatment of leukemia, even if it's a little bit of a breakthrough. Xiong Yanfei stared out the window (the door to the living room was closed), his eyes full of yearning. But I know it's a fantasy for me. Xiong Yanfei withdrew his gaze.
"How can it be a fantasy? You have your own experience in this area, which is more conducive to your study. That's the most authoritative. "I feel like I have a five-flavor bottle in my heart.
Xiong Yanfei said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, Zheng Qihang, you are very talented in reading." Lying in a hospital bed, I thought that if you were willing to fight in this area, maybe you could overcome leukemia. You have made a great contribution to humanity. This life is incomparably fulfilling. β
"Me?" I didn't expect Xiong Yanfei to set it up like this.
"I'd like to be your first-hand. Have you ever thought about what university you want to go to? β
I shook my head. "I never thought about college."
Xiong Yanfei continued: "Actually, even if you don't go to overcome my disease, it is very meaningful to just be a doctor. For the patient, the doctor is his hope and his savior. The profession of a doctor is great. People, birth, old age, sickness and death, this disease is inseparable from doctors. β
"I'll consider your suggestion," I was suddenly excited, "but only if you're with me." We go to medical school together, we discuss the various conditions of patients together, and if possible, we work together to solve the world's problems of leukemia. Do you think it's good? β
"That's wonderful." Xiong Yanfei said.
That day, when I came out of Xiong Yanfei's house, sat on the bus, saw the workers clearing the snow on the road, saw the children having a snowball fight on the side of the road, and saw the lovers walking hand in hand in the snow, I recalled what Xiong Yanfei said over and over again in my mind.
Really, I haven't even thought about what kind of person I want to be. I never set what career I would pursue in the future. Of course, I didn't think about what university to go to.
But half of my high school life has passed, and this is a very rapid thing, and it seems that entering this campus is still yesterday, and half of it has passed without thinking about it. In the same blink of an eye, the remaining half will be gone, how can I not think about what university to go to, what career to pursue in the future?
And Xiong Yanfei has already set me up. Be a doctor and, if possible, conquer leukemia.
I certainly can't let her down!
