Looking at the sky outside the window, it was obviously an endless blue, but Yin Zhiming's eyes seemed to be smeared with a layer of heavy gray, and he couldn't erase it no matter what. Zhiming glanced down at the hands of her watch, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and the plane was about to land, she tilted her head slightly, let the tears dry in her eyes, and let her close her eyes and lean on the seat.

This is the fourth year of Zhiming's study abroad, originally there were two more years for her to finish her studies and return to China, but her grandfather suddenly fell seriously ill, she seemed to be the sky falling, and the helplessness and fear at that moment filled her whole heart and brain, she no longer had any calmness and rationality to think, and she didn't want to leave everything behind and buy a ticket back to China.

After getting off the plane and looking at the flow of people coming and going around her, she only felt lonely and cold. She had thought many times that she had returned to China after completing her studies, and with her growth, honor, and the thoughts she had saved rushed to the arms of her grandfather who was waiting for her at the airport early, but none of this was possible, and now she only hoped that her grandfather would be safe and could continue to accompany her.

Zhiming hurriedly ran out of the airport with her suitcase, the more anxious she was at this moment, eager to see her grandfather soon, she thought that her grandfather must be waiting for her to go back. Zhiming tried his best to control his emotions and expressions, and tried his best to say to the driver in a calm tone: "Master, city hospital, please hurry up!" ”

The driver saw her anxiety and rushed to the hospital sympathetically. Although she knew that it was already soon, Zhiming only hoped that the car could be faster, faster, so that she could meet her grandfather soon.

The people on the hospital side were also anxious, in addition to the Yin family, the Sun family and his wife were also outside the operating room. Mrs. Sun looked at the three red characters in the operation, turned around and whispered, "Didn't you let Xiao Qi pick up the inscription?" Why hasn't it arrived yet? ”

Mr. Sun frowned and sighed, "Obviously I specially told him, Xiao Qi is not a person who doesn't know the severity, don't worry, it should be fine." ”

"Ringing ringing ......", at this time, Mr. Sun's mobile phone called, "Hey, Dad, I have a little traffic jam here, and I didn't receive Miss Yin." ”

"Didn't get it?" Mrs. Sun snatched the phone, "What's the matter with you, you can't pick up anyone, Zhiming hasn't returned to China for so many years, how can she be a girl?" How unsafe! ”

Yin Qi couldn't help frowning when he heard his mother's scolding, "I can't help this traffic jam, and I've tried my best to get there, but it's five minutes late, and she's so adult, she should be fine." ”

"You ......" Mrs. Sun still wanted to continue, but fortunately she was stopped by Mr. Sun, patted her shoulder, and took her mobile phone, "Okay, although Zhiming hasn't returned to China for a long time, he is not a child anymore, you don't have to worry." ”

As soon as he hung up his mobile phone, he looked back and saw that Zhiming was hurrying over, his face was red, his eyes were moist, and he tried to walk calmly to the front of the operating room, and kept whispering in his mouth, "Grandpa......?" ”

Grandpa, I'm back! ”

I haven't seen her for many years, Mrs. Sun was stunned at first, looked at Zhiming up and down, slowly came back to her senses, slowly walked to Zhiming's side, and pulled Zhiming's cold hand with a warm palm, "Don't worry, child, your grandfather will be fine." ”

Zhiming looked back at her, and there was a moment of familiarity in his eyes. Mrs. Sun introduced herself empathetically, "I am your Aunt Sun, you should have seen us when you were a child." ”

Zhiming thought back, and it seemed that his parents and grandfather used to talk about Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun, and said to Mrs. Sun and Mr. Sun who were walking over: "Uncle Sun, Auntie is good!" ”

"Don't worry, your grandpa will be fine."

Zhiming pursed his lips and nodded, and comforted himself in his heart, "How is grandpa?" What do doctors say? There was a tremor in her tone, trying her best to control her emotions and try not to let the tears fall.

"Your grandfather said he hadn't seen you for a long time, and he would definitely wait to see his granddaughter."

Zhiming lowered his head, covered his entire face with his hair, and kept wiping away the tears that flowed. She felt a sore throat that made her gasp, and she held her breath for a moment before she opened her mouth wide, but she still couldn't say a word.

Zhiming approached the intensive care unit and saw his grandfather lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by only cold instruments and a patch of white. He was a lot older, there was no blood on his face, he was wearing an oxygen mask, his eyes were closed, he must be very uncomfortable, but he still stood strong and waited for Zhiming to come back.

Zhiming couldn't control his emotions anymore, tears came out of his eyes, and he shouted in his ear: "Grandpa, grandpa, how are you?" I'm Ming'er, I'm back. ”

But grandpa didn't answer him, Zhiming held his grandfather's broad palm and put it on his cheek, and turned his head sideways to feel the temperature of his grandfather's palm, "Xiao Ming'er is back, grandpa." ”

It wasn't until the next morning that Grandpa Yin finally woke up. The nurse gestured out the window. Grandpa Yin opened his eyes slightly, turned his head sideways, and saw his granddaughter, with warm tears flowing from the corners of his eyes.

Zhiming stood on tiptoe and waved to his grandfather, wanting to tell him that Ming'er was back, and Ming'er would guard his grandfather.

Considering the patient's condition, the doctor arranged for surgery three days later, and during these three days, Zhiming also stayed outside the intensive care room inch by inch.

Aunt Sun held Zhiming's haggard face, "Child, you rushed back by plane, and you haven't rested, go back to sleep, Aunt Sun is here to take care of." ”

Zhiming looked back at his grandfather, bowed his head and did not speak.

"Your grandfather doesn't want to see you tired like this, how can you take care of your grandfather if you get sick again?"

Zhiming adjusted his mood and state, and brushed the broken hair in front of him, "Then Aunt Sun, grandpa will trouble you." ”

I simply packed my suitcase, and when I was about to leave, I ran into Sun Qi who came to visit.

Sun Qi looked at the girl in front of him, somewhat surprised, she looked so thin, her pale face was full of tears, her eyes were still wet, and her eyes were full of helplessness and fear. Her hair was messily stuck to her ears, and her casual shirt was a little old, probably too busy taking care of her grandfather to change it.

"Xiao Qi, you are here", Mrs. Sun saw Sun Qi and hurriedly introduced, "This is my son Sun Qi, Xiao Qi, this is the inscription." ”

"Hello, I've heard of it for a long time!" Sun Qi took the initiative to take the lead in greeting.

At this time, Zhiming's eyes were only endlessly gray, and he was wearing a white sweatshirt, blue jeans, deep eyebrows, and vitality.

Zhiming was half a beat slow before replying: "Hello, thank you that day!" ”

"I originally asked Xiao Qi to pick you up that day, but this stinky boy didn't receive it."

Zhiming then remembered that he did receive a message from Aunt Sun in advance that day that he would pick her up at the airport, but she immediately took a taxi away without seeing anyone.

"It's just that Zhiming is going home to change, you can send her back!"

"No need, Aunt Sun, I'll just go back by myself, don't bother!" Zhiming replied immediately. It may be that she has only grown up with her grandfather since she was a child, and she is well protected, she has never been willing to trouble people's character, and it can even be said that she has some weakness.

"I don't feel at ease with you, let's let Xiao Qi send you", he handed over the suitcase in Zhiming's hand to Sun Qi, "You have to send Zhiming home safely!" ”

"Hmm", Sun Qi nodded and pulled Zhiming's suitcase and walked out.

Zhiming followed behind Sun Qi, and the two of them walked into the elevator, but they couldn't help but say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you!"

"It's fine!" Sun Qi replied briefly, his eyes kept looking straight ahead.

Zhiming felt that Sun Qi didn't seem to like her, or that he really didn't like her for the first time, but Zhiming felt that Sun Qi seemed to reject her a little.

The two didn't know each other well and there was nothing to talk about, so it was quiet in the car. And Zhiming fell asleep after a while because he was too tired, and Sun Qi tried to drive the car as slowly as possible, so as not to wake her up.

Zhiming felt the car stop and woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw the familiar house, the long-lost home, the home of her and her grandfather. The happy scenes of living with my grandfather come to mind.

She got out of the car and walked to the door, Sun Qi went directly to the window sill and took the key for her, "I often come to deliver daily necessities to my grandfather, so I know where it is." ”

Zhiming took the key a little lonely, she really hasn't come back for a long time, it's her who missed the time to accompany her grandfather, "Thank you!" ”

Sun Qi moved his luggage down, "Then I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

"Okay, thank you today!"

"It's okay," he turned and left.

After a brief clean-up and only two hours of rest, Zhiming hurried back to the hospital, she was afraid, afraid that if she left for a while......

The next morning the operation was due to be performed, Zhiming slowly pushed his grandfather's hospital bed and sent it outside the operating room, reluctantly looking at his sleeping grandfather. Until the door of the operating room closed, she slowly squatted against the wall, and now she was exhausted and had no strength.

The operation took a long time, it was almost midnight, Mr. Sun and Mrs. Sun fell asleep on the chair, Zhiming stood like that against the wall of the operating room, she was very worried about her grandfather, but she couldn't do anything. Zhiming felt that everything around him was cold, the walls were cold, his hands were cold, his feet were cold, the tears in the corners of his eyes were cold, especially the three shocking words in front of him were even colder. Zhiming raised her hands and hugged herself tightly, but she still couldn't feel a trace of warmth.

Until a hot cup of coffee appeared in front of her eyes...... Zhiming raised his head, looked at the person in front of him, and then looked down at the coffee in the person's hand, without saying a word.

"Take it, it's still hot!" He put the coffee in Zhiming's hand, then turned and walked away.

Sun Qi arranged the affairs of the band, and when he saw that his parents had not returned home, he came to the hospital to take a look. When he walked outside the operating room, he felt the gloom of despair, and he stopped for a moment, it turned out that life and death were so helpless and frightening.
