In the dimly lit ward, the air was bitterly cold due to the arrival of winter, and even if the windows were closed, the cold could not be stopped.

The sound that sounded in the bitter cold carried a bit of ethereal reality.

"Master, let's get married. ”

The person on the hospital bed raised his head in surprise, looked this way, was silent for a moment, and then showed a gentle smile, "Okay." ”

That kind of gentleness, that kind of happiness, is what he once longed for, what he pursued, what he dreamed of. But since when has he been afraid of such happiness, afraid of such tenderness, and running away from such happiness?

Since when has he forgotten that he can't forget jì for a period of time in his life? Obviously, he wants to remember Yiqiē like that, and he promised her that he won't forget him, why would he break his promise?

Don't...... When you cross, did your brain break down?

It was the closest speculation to the truth - but he knew very well that this qiē had nothing to do with the crossing, and was just a poor coward's choice to escape from reality.

He is just cowardly and timid, fragile and incompetent, wandering the world in confusion. I don't know the meaning of living, I don't know what I live for, I only know that mechanically I abandon the weight of a qiē, and I want to become light, but my empty heart can't support him to go further.

But why should we even throw away such an important thing? It is such an important thing, it is such a precious memory, and it is obviously not something that should be forgotten......

"There is no complete cure for your master's illness under the current medical conditions, so we can only do our best to hope that it can be delayed until the day when a new prescription appears. ”

This delay is far away.

When Master was admitted to the hospital, he was still an ordinary student, and although Master persuaded him many times, he stubbornly chose to drop out. The cost of hospitalization is too high to afford. The meager salary he earned while working during the summer vacation alone was not enough to support this qiē.

Of course, there is no diploma, and if he wants to earn more money, he can only do the most tiring work. At the beginning, he was just working on the construction site, and although he was tired a lot, his body that had practiced martial arts since he was a child was fully able to support it.

Although with the hospitalization of the master, the cram school for the children in the martial arts hall could not be held, and the income of the two dropped sharply. But they still have savings. Before Master's father died, he also left a sum of money as a dowry for his daughter, and the two of them were able to support each other and gradually go on.

But her illness worsened day by day, and her body became weaker day by day. Cheng Dù, who was once able to have a gentle and powerful hand, gradually became pale and weak, and even weakened to the point that he could not even lift anything with a little weight, and in the end, he could only rely on a wheelchair to walk, and he was as weak as an old man in the twilight.

The only constant. Only that gentle smile is always so beautiful and kind. As long as you look at that gentle smile, you can always feel that there is no more difficulty and sadness in this world.

But those things are there after all.

Her body gradually weakened, and her movements became more and more sluggish. The ward was moved from a single multi-person room to a separate nursing unit. The amount of medicine taken and the liquid medicine injected into the body has gradually changed from a small amount once a day to a large amount three times a day.

In the end. Even the amount of medicine was so large that it could be used as food, and his white arms were full of pinholes, and he looked shockingly cruel.

But she was smiling like that after all. He never complained, never said something deflating, just like the warmest sunshine, guiding Qin Hao's way forward.

And Qin Hao's work has gradually increased from the very beginning.

The increasingly high costs, even if the hospital has done its best to alleviate them a lot, it is still not something that he can afford as an ordinary person. The family's house was sold, and even the ashram that Master had inherited from her father was ruthlessly sold.

But it can only solve the urgent need.

He began to work three jobs, and during the day, he worked the construction site doing the most tiring work. During the two hours from evening to night, he would go to make up lessons for the children he had agreed upon, and when the make-up lessons were over, he would rush to the bar to work as a waiter until about three o'clock in the morning.

He spent all his time in the rental house sleeping, but the full schedule of work still made this rest seem a little insufficient. In the eyes of everyone, he was always so tired and sleepy, always in such a hurry, and never stopped to rest.

And the goal he worked hard for was just to be able to spare time twice a week to see that gentle smile in the hospital room. As long as the smile is still there, and that person is still there, his efforts will be meaningful, and his fatigue will be soothed.

But after all, it is only the tired mind that is soothed, and the fatigue of the body is not diminished by subjective consciousness. His work continued, his tired life kept moving forward, he didn't have time to stop and think, he could only follow the crowded rhythm and move mechanically towards the future where he didn't know where.

Gradually, he began to wander in a trance, and many times he would occasionally nap while working. Some friends noticed that he was not in a good state and comforted him worriedly, but he smiled and refused one by one.

Because he can't stop, he has to move forward, even if the pressure on his shoulders is about to crush him, but before the bones are completely crushed, even if he climbs, he must crawl forward to the end.

Then he was injured.

As he tied a safety rope to tile a building with dozens of floors, his sleepy spirit was dizzy for a second, his arm slipped off, and then he fell from the sixteenth floor.

Broke an arm.

It is fortunate that he did not die, but his right hand has not been able to exert force since then. Once in good health, he will no longer be able to work on the construction site – which means that his income will be cut by two-thirds.

He still works three jobs, but those jobs that don't require much effort to do are naturally impossible to pay him too much. He tried many ways to find a solution to his predicament, but he had no clue.

So the pace of life continued to move forward, but the lives of the two gradually became poor. She also moved from a clean and bright ward to a cramped and dilapidated ward, and the number of healing potions and potions was drastically reduced, and her condition worsened even more.

She was still awake, but many times she had to fall into a deep sleep, and it took a long time to call to wake her up, and this wakefulness could not last long. Many times, it is only a short paragraph, but she has to be woken up many times before it can be completely explained.

But for this qiē, neither he nor she has ever complained and regretted it. They support each other, depend on each other, and even if it is extremely difficult in this world, they still try to survive.

Then, he pushed her out of her room and hugged her gently.

"Master, let's get married. ”

The person on the hospital bed was surprised for a moment, and then smiled as a matter of course, "Okay." ”

The wedding was soon in place, but apart from his few remaining friends and a few neighbors they shared, no other guests arrived—and no other guests were needed.

He asked the current owner of the dojo, and the other party deliberately vacated the dojo on that day, so that the two could hold their wedding in a familiar home.

On the day of the wedding, it snowed heavily.

The cold white ice crystals gently fell on the road and trees, but he felt that it was the warmest time in his life. Witnessed by his friends, he finally found the happiest warmth of his life - perhaps this warmth has always been by his side, and it was only on that day that he took the initiative to hold it.

"Want something to eat?"

Standing in front of her in the midst of the white snowflakes drifting silently, he asked his wife, who was as beautiful as an angel in a white wedding dress in a wheelchair.

Then I got the answer I wanted.

Want to see the sea ......

By the time she said this, she was so weak that she could barely straighten her spine, and she could only slow down her whole body strength to a wheelchair. But when she looked at him, those eyes were full of sparkling light.

He couldn't refuse.

But there is no need to say the promise again.

The arm that hangs down weakly symbolizes the passing of life. The man who always smiled gently, the most important person in his life, was in front of his eyes, in the wheelchair of the wedding, wearing a white wedding dress, with the most beautiful side of his life, slowly closing his eyes.

No more sound.

White snow is still slowly falling from the sky. In the cold snowflakes, even the sky seemed to sense the sadness here, gloomy and bleak, and there was not the slightest hope of light in sight.

He knelt in front of the wheelchair in a daze, unconsciously holding her body that was gradually losing temperature, but there were no tears of sadness. He just felt the heart that stopped beating, felt the warmth of the distance, felt the color of the passing of life, and lost his own color at the same time.

Pale and deadly, empty and hopeless, that was what came after him. Like the walking dead, I don't know what to live for, I don't know why I want to keep going, I just walk mechanically, mechanically, unconsciously waiting for the last dark moment to come.

Then, I don't know how long it was, when he stood in front of the mirror one morning, he found that his hair was messy, his face was full of stubble, his eyes were gloomy, and he was so decadent that he could not see the slightest hope, and he realized that it seemed that a long time had passed......
