Chapter 125: The Ex-Wife Is Coming
Liu Xiaoguang replied: "Yes, do you like to eat dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut?" β
"I haven't eaten it at all, how do I know if I like it or not?"
"Oh, why don't you come and have a try. There should be no sauerkraut in this season now, this is what Professor Nan's wife used to pack for Professor Nan, and Professor Nan was not willing to eat it himself, and kept freezing in the freezer in the cafeteria. β
Li Mengmeng was a little embarrassed, although she very much wanted to go to the observatory, but what should her father do? She wanted to refuse politely, but it was difficult to speak, first, she was reluctant, and second, she couldn't bear to refuse someone's first sincere invitation.
Liu Xiaoguang hesitated when he heard her, and felt very strange, so he asked, "Mengmeng, can you come?" β
"I'm afraid..." Li Mengmeng just wanted to find a reason to excuse herself, but when she raised her eyes, she found that her father was frequently gesturing to her, and that gesture was to persuade her to agree immediately. So, she had to change her words, "I'm afraid I don't have time now, and I have to go to school in the morning." β
Liu Xiaoguang hurriedly asked: "What about the afternoon?" β
"I'll take a look, and if I can get over, I'll call you in advance."
"Alright then, if you haven't woken up yet, squint a little longer. I'm going to get busy. β
Li Mengmeng was very conflicted, so she took the opportunity to end the call: "Well, I wish you a happy work." β
Li Yunjian had unconsciously come to his daughter's bedside, and said meaningfully: "Mengmeng, you should eat that sauerkraut-filled dumpling, which is a reflection of your own value." β
Li Mengmeng looked up at her father in amazement: "You... Why? β
Li Yunjian glanced up at the ceiling at this time, and let out a sigh: "I am not as successful as him in life and work, but I robbed other people's women, I really feel ashamed." I've finally figured out some of the truths in the world until now. β
Li Mengmeng was curious: "What did you understand?" β
"People's lives are very short, we should do more meaningful things, and don't desperately pursue the so-called wealth and wealth, because these cannot prolong our lives. But as long as you do something meaningful or even benefit mankind, even if your life is short, it will be remembered by future generations. Isn't he now engaged in a glorious and great cause? So, he deserves my respect. β
Li Mengmeng listened to her father's life insights, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart, and said with blurred tears: "Dad... Can you think of this... It's just wonderful. β
Li Yunjian raised his hand and stroked the top of his daughter's head: "Girl, my father did something to hurt him, and now I don't want to ruin his future." If you can give him some spiritual compensation on his behalf and give him the spirit to do the work for the benefit of mankind, then you can atone for his sins. β
Li Mengmeng hurriedly said: "Dad, don't blame yourself. He actually wanted to open it a long time ago, otherwise he wouldn't have entrusted Sister Shuyun to you. β
Li Yunjian couldn't help but sigh: "After all, he is a scientist with a broad mind that embraces all rivers. β
Li Mengmeng questioned again: "You just said that I went to eat other people's sauerkraut stuffed dumplings to reflect my own value?" β
"Yes."
"Why?"
"As long as you go to eat that dumpling, it is equivalent to promoting mutual affection with others, which is an infinite motivation for that scientist, if you activate the creativity of a scientist, don't you let your personal value shine?"
Li Mengmeng was both moved and shy, and she really wanted to fly to the high-rise building that she longed for immediately, but there was a cruel reality in front of her, once she left, who would take care of her father? Even if she thinks about Liu Xiaoguang's emotions now, she can't reveal the truth to him.
Li Yunjian saw that his daughter was hesitant, so he guessed her thoughts, so Wen Yan said: "You can go with confidence, Dad can survive alone for a day." Besides, the nurses here will take care of me too. β
Li Mengmeng looked up at her father carefully at this time, in just a few days, he seemed to have changed from a capable entrepreneur to a critically ill patient, and she couldn't help but have a sour nose.
"Dad... I don't worry about you... I want to be with you..."
When Li Yunjian saw his daughter's affection, he couldn't help but be moved, his body suddenly weakened, and he was about to fall down when he staggered...
Li Mengmeng was taken aback when she saw it in her eyes, and hurriedly turned over and got out of bed to support him: "Dad! How are you? β
Li Yunjian was sweating profusely in an instant, feeling like the sky was falling apart, he couldn't say a word, his huge body was shaky, and he barely fixed him with Li Mengmeng, but it was difficult to help him to his original hospital bed.
"Doctor... Nurse! Li Mengmeng shouted loudly to the door while desperately holding her father's body.
At this moment, the door of the ward was quickly opened, and a person rushed in from the outsideβ
Li Mengmeng felt a little relieved when she heard the sound of the door, she didn't expect the medical staff to react so quickly.
When she looked for it, she couldn't help but be shocked: "Mom? β
When Li Yunjian heard his daughter call her mother, she couldn't help but be shocked, and she also followed her daughter's gaze in the direction of the door-
Yes, it was his ex-wife Yang Lanting who hurriedly broke in from outside the door.
It turned out that Yang Lanting received the notice from Dr. Cheng and knew that her ex-husband was running out of time, which made her extremely sad, and finally went from silent concern to the front. She got up early today to cook a little black chicken soup for her ex-husband, put it in a soup can, and sent it to the hospital in person. Originally, she didn't want to show her head, and planned to sneak a look at her ex-husband, so she handed over the soup can to her daughter and left silently. However, when she approached her ex-husband's hospital room and heard her ex-husband's words, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings, deeply feeling that although the disease destroyed her ex-husband's body, it also washed his mind, as if he had a thorough understanding of life. When her ex-husband was ill, she rushed in without hesitation.
At this time, Yang Lanting ignored her daughter's exclamation, and had no time to meet her ex-husband's surprised eyes, but first placed the soup can in her hand on the bedside table next to the bed, and then turned around to help her daughter support her ex-husband.
When Li Yunjian saw that his ex-wife had come to help him in person, he quickly cheered up, and with the assistance of the two of them, he struggled back to his hospital bed.
Li Mengmeng didn't have time to ask Yang Lanting why she came, and as soon as her father's body fell on the hospital bed, she told her: "Mom, you take care of my dad first, and I'll go to the doctor." β
Unexpectedly, Li Yunjian suddenly made a voice: "Meng Meng don't!" β
Li Mengmeng froze in amazement and looked back: "Why?" β
Li Yunjian tried his best to calm down, and smiled at his daughter: "I... It's already much better... Don't want a doctor... Want to say a few words to your mom..."
Li Mengmeng looked at her mother with hesitation.
Yang Lanting's concerned gaze kept on Li Yunjian's face covered with beads of sweat, and while reaching out to wipe it, he asked, "Yunjian, can you really stand it?" β
Li Yunjian still covered up: "Well, I'm fine." β
Seeing this, Li Mengmeng had no choice but to change her mind, hurriedly bypassed the hospital bed, and took a towel from the other side, intending to wipe Li Yunjian's sweat, but because Yang Lanting occupied the main position, she handed the towel into her hand.
Yang Lanting had a towel in her hand, and she was more considerate of her ex-husband.
While Li Yunjian felt the warmth, his heart was full of guilt and uneasiness: "Lanting... What are you doing here? β
Yang Lanting didn't expect that she would come face-to-face with her ex-husband, so she had to explain: "Today is the weekend, I specially boiled a little chicken soup for you at home to help you replenish your body." β
"Oh... Thank you for your hard work. β
Li Yunjian was moved to tears when he thought of his ex-wife getting up early in the morning to make chicken soup for him, and he didn't know what to say.
Yang Lanting was the same, but a deep gaze stared at her ex-husband's face, as if she wanted to share his pain.
Li Mengmeng saw that the atmosphere was a little silent, so she hurried to the soup can, and unscrewed the lid, and a fragrant fragrance filled her nose.
"It's so delicious, dad drink it while it's hot, right?"
Li Yunjian took the opportunity to say: "Okay... It's been a long time since I've drunk your mother's chicken soup. β
Li Mengmeng carefully picked up the soup can, and slowly poured the chicken soup inside into a small bowl on the bedside table...
When she came to her father with half a bowl of chicken soup and a spoon, Yang Lanting calmly stretched out her hands to her daughter: "I'll come." β
Li Mengmeng handed the small bowl and soup spoon to her without hesitation.
Yang Lanting had already covered the towel on her ex-husband's chest before, and then turned her eyes to him: "Shall I feed you chicken soup?" β
Li Yunjian's eyes were already blurred with tears, and he nodded silently.
Yang Lanting slowly sat on the chair next to the bed, held the soup spoon in one hand, and gently stirred the soup bowl held in the other hand.
Li Mengmeng stared blankly at the touching scene in front of her, this is clearly a portrayal of a loving couple, where is it like a divorced man and woman?
Li Yunjian drank the chicken soup in the bowl in one go, and praised again and again: "It's so delicious, I haven't drunk such a delicious soup for a long time." β
Yang Lanting handed the empty bowl back to her daughter: "Mengmeng, pour another bowl of chicken soup!" β
When Li Yunjian finished drinking the second bowl of chicken soup, he never drank it again.
Yang Lanting saw that he had drunk enough, so he was no longer reluctant, but he felt that staying in the ward like this would be very embarrassing on the scene, so he stood up: "Yunjian, you have a good rest, I should go back." β
Li Yunjian immediately cast an anxious look at her: "Are you going to leave now?" β
Yang Lanting nodded: "Well, there's nothing for me here, I should go back and get busy." β
Li Yunjian's deep voice said: "I know you are a nursery worker in the kindergarten, but isn't it a weekend today?" Can you stay with me for a day? β
Yang Lanting stared at her ex-husband with stunned eyes: "Stay with you for a day?" β
Li Yunjian nodded slowly: "Well, talk to me..." It's been a long time since we've had a good chat together. β
"This..." Yang Lanting hesitated.
Li Mengmeng saw her father's attachment to her mother, and quickly persuaded: "Mom, just accompany Dad, I have something to go out later." β
Li Yunjian's eyes lit up: "Yes! Meng Meng is going to meet her boyfriend. β
Li Mengmeng's face flushed, but she didn't refute her father.
Yang Lanting had overheard some of the conversation between their father and daughter outside the ward before, and knew that her daughter was invited to eat dumplings, so she motioned to her daughter: "You go." β
Li Mengmeng saw that as soon as her father saw her mother's arrival, she was like a different person, and she was a lot more excited, and finally said with relief: "Then mom will accompany Dad, I'll be back soon." β
Li Yunjian hurriedly said: "Mengmeng, don't be too anxious to go back to the ward, let's accompany the scientist more." β
Yang Lanting also said: "You have been in the ward for several days, don't worry about it here, it's time to go out and change the air." β
Under the persuasion of her parents, Li Mengmeng simply packed up her belongings, said goodbye to her parents in the ward with a complicated feeling, and then pushed the door out-
However, when her eyes fell on the corridor outside the door, her eyes were suddenly shocked again-Xiao Shuyun was standing outside the door!
