Chapter 70 Ring

"What are your plans next?"

Liang Qi himself had not thought about this problem. His brain, which usually weighed everything and made precise calculations, seemed to have been suddenly forced to press the pause button in the past few days.

"I don't know." Liang Qi answered him truthfully.

Qin Yiyan didn't know what to say to comfort him. If he were facing this situation where his life was turned upside down, he might be even more at a loss than Liang Qi.

Just as the two were silent, there was a noisy sound outside the door.

"Is this little girl's family here?"

“…”

Shen Xiyu heard the shouts of strangers and someone swaying in her ears. She couldn't see who it was. Before she completely lost consciousness, she vaguely saw a familiar figure rushing towards her.

It’s Liang Qi.

Then she can fall asleep.

…

A feeling of dizziness filled Shen Xiyu's brain, and the confusion of wanting to open her eyes but being unable to lift them pulled her into a dream.

She walked into a white room.

There was a little figure in white sitting in the room. Shen Xiyu took a closer look and saw that it was a little girl fishing. There was a round hole of medium size in the pure white floor, and inside was a clear lake.

There was no other color in the entire space except the lake and the little girl's hanging black hair.

Shen Xiyu knew she was dreaming, but she couldn't wake up, so she had to sit next to the little girl.

"Will this catch fish?"

"Yes." A familiar voice.

It was Shen Xiyu himself.

She wasn't too surprised. After all, this was a dream. Anything could happen. She didn't have to care about anything and didn't have to worry about losing anything.

"I really want you to go out and live for me for a few days." Shen Xiyu buried half of his face in his knees, "I'm so tired."

Little Shen Xiyu turned a deaf ear to everything. Suddenly, the fishing rod moved. She skillfully reeled in the rod and a pink bighead carp was pulled up, flapping on the ground.

"It really is a dream." Shen Xiyu poked its face with his hand. "There are fish like this."

"This is the fish I drew myself." Little Shen Xiyu pulled it back into the lake and watched it swim away.

She turned her head to look at Shen Xiyu. Her eyebrows and eyes were almost enlarged in proportion to Shen Xiyu's. Except for some baby fat, they were almost exactly the same.

"You drew it, but you forgot."

"Did I forget? I guess I forgot." Shen Xiyu lowered his head and stared at the lake in a daze. "Then why did you let it go?"

"I didn't really want to catch it." Little Shen Xiyu shrugged, "It doesn't belong to me, and it doesn't belong here."

"Then why did you hang him up just now?" Shen Xiyu asked puzzledly.

Little Shen Xiyu seemed to be angry. He stood up, put his hands on his hips, raised his voice and spoke in a baby voice.

"You're so stupid! Do you understand what fun is? I like it but it doesn't mean I want to stay with it forever. If I do that, it will never be able to return to the sea it loves, and I will just have to watch over this fish every day and see it sad."

Shen Xiyu smiled good-naturedly and asked her to sit down again.

Although there was no sun, two silhouettes, one big and one small, were still visible on the ground.

Shen Xiyu propped up his head and said, "Yeah, even a little kid like you knows the truth. Why am I so stubborn?"

“…”

It was already night when Shen Xiyu woke up again.

What came into view was a dark ward and thick curtains.

She kept her eyes open for a long time without moving. She didn't know if this scene was too much like waking up alone in the lonely evening after a nap. Shen Xiyu's nose was inexplicably sore, and she couldn't explain why.

In the dark night, Shen Xiyu let his tears slide down his temples.

Too many things happened today. Not only was she exhausted physically and mentally, but her eyes were also swollen from crying. Normally, she would never allow herself to show herself like this.

When Liang Qi saw her just now, she must have been very ugly, Shen Xiyu couldn't help but think.

In the darkness, there was suddenly the sound of a door opening. The light outside was very dim, so even if the door was opened, nothing could be seen clearly in the room.

Shen Xiyu quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. She didn't want others to see her crying again.

but……

Is it Liang Qi?

Shen Xiyu remembered that the last person he saw before fainting was Liang Qi. It was because of seeing him that he subconsciously relaxed and did not resist with his extremely tense body.

But what if it’s him, what if it’s not him, Shen Xiyu couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

But she couldn't help but pay attention to the movements in the room.

"It wasn't long after the infusion."

"good."

Shen Xiyu heard the two people's breathing.

It’s Qin Yiyan and Dai Meng.

She couldn't describe how she felt.

People are always like this. They like to deceive themselves and others. As they deceive for a while, they start to think it is true and suppress their desires.

Shen Xiyu calmed down, felt that his tears had dried up, prepared himself mentally, and opened his eyes again.

"You're awake." Dai Meng immediately noticed that Shen Xiyu was struggling to get up.

"Hey, hey." Qin Yiyan took two steps and walked over. "Don't move. You hit your leg when you fell."

If he hadn't said anything, Shen Xiyu wouldn't have felt the stinging sensation in his leg. It wasn't very obvious, so it probably wasn't that serious.

"It's okay." Her voice was a little hoarse. "I didn't get hit."

"Close your eyes, I'll turn on the light."

The light instantly filled the entire ward.

Dai Meng and Qin Yiyan immediately noticed the undried water marks on the pillow and Shen Xiyu's eyes that were swollen like walnuts. They looked at each other and tacitly kept silent.

"You're finally awake. I've been waiting for you to eat." Qin Yiyan carried all the takeout bags in his hands to Shen Xiyu.

The body that had been occupied by emotions for a long time was finally overcome by the fragrance that hit him at this moment, and Shen Xiyu's stomach kept rumbling.

Dai Meng laughed, "I told you not to eat."

"I'm not skipping meals." Shen Xiyu quietly defended himself.

"You won't feel dizzy if you eat." Qin Yiyan said as he pulled the table, "You ate a little in the infirmary this morning and you haven't eaten since then." "I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're so thin now that you look unrecognizable. You fainted twice a day. What do you want? Do you want to lose your body?" Dai Meng's tone was not very good. She knew that a lot of things had happened to Liang Qi and the others recently, but Shen Xiyu and the others were unwilling to say, and she would not take the initiative to ask about such things.

However, as a friend, seeing Shen Xiyu ruining his body like this, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't angry. Fainting twice in one day, even a strong person couldn't stand it, not to mention that Shen Xiyu's body was not very healthy to begin with, and his work and rest schedule was also hellish.

Although Shen Xiyu was a person who didn't like being controlled or nagged, her friend's words of reproach at this moment sounded particularly warm, and she felt a long-lost sense of relief.

Qin Yiyan echoed, "That's right, you and that Liang... ah!"

"Why did you kick my butt!" Qin Yiyan turned around and glared at Dai Meng, covering his butt and screaming.

"I don't like you." Dai Meng glared at him and continued with the work at hand.

"You..." Qin Yiyan had just said half of his words when he suddenly realized what he had just said. He almost wanted to slap himself. Why did he speak without thinking at the critical moment?

He looked up at Shen Xiyu guiltily, and found that the other party had no reaction, and his heart was relieved a little.

"Come, eat, eat. I bought some soup. Drink more. It's very nourishing."

The three of them had a happy meal together. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention those heart-wrenching things, but just chatted about family matters.

Shen Xiyu still had no appetite, ate little and quickly, put down his chopsticks early, and listened silently to the two people arguing with each other.

A sense of peace filled her heart.

it's all over.

*

After dinner, Dai Meng went to help Shen Xiyu get medicine. Only Qin Yiyan and Shen Xiyu were left in the room packing up their things.

There is a royal blue box next to the pillow.

Shen Xiyu picked it up doubtfully, thinking that it must have been dropped by a previous patient, and that he would put it at the nurses' station when he went out.

Qin Yiyan looked at her hesitantly, and Shen Xiyu keenly perceived what he meant.

She took out the box again, hesitated for a long time, and opened it.

It is a plain ring inlaid with blue diamonds, and the English words S&L are engraved on the inner ring.

It's her favorite color.

Qin Yi saw that Shen Xiyu didn't speak or move for a long time, so he mustered up the courage to speak, "Xiyu, if you don't want..."

"No."

Qin Yiyan was a little confused, "What do you mean?"

The girl also realized that her answer was a bit incoherent, "No, I don't want it."

Shen Xiyu couldn't help but ask, "When did he buy it?"

"I don't know. He gave it to me when I returned to Jiangcheng at the beginning of the year. He said that if...if he really couldn't come back, he would hand it over to you and let you do whatever you want with it." Qin Yiyan scratched his head, feeling a little down. "But if it weren't for the incident with Brother Shengrui, maybe he didn't expect that you would see each other again."

The joints of Shen Xiyu's hands turned white as he held the box.

"So he was here, huh?"

"Well, he brought you here, and after your condition stabilized, he left. He said that you wouldn't want to see him again."

Shen Xiyu couldn't help laughing, and laughed so hard that his stomach hurt a little. He squatted on the ground, holding on to the wall, and tears came to the corners of his eyes unconsciously.

Qin Yiyan felt complicated when he saw her like this. How could he not see that Shen Xiyu had been forcing a smile just now?

Shen Xiyu gradually calmed down and pressed his eyes with his palms.

He stood up and put the box in his coat pocket, holding it tightly.

"Liang Qi is such a fool."

“…”

Dai Meng's home was right next to the hospital, so Shen Xiyu and Qin Yiyan sent her back first.

Despite Shen Xiyu's repeated refusal, Qin Yiyan still insisted on sending her home, saying that he was afraid that the patient would faint on the road again.

"That's not that exaggerated. I fainted three times in one day."

Qin Yiyan looked her up and down and said, "I think it's uncertain."

Shen Xiyu patted his face, "What's wrong? I won't look haggard now, will I?"

"You've been busy as a top all day. It would be strange if you didn't look haggard."

Shen Xiyu was a little anxious, "Then I won't be ugly all day long, will I?"

Qin Yiyan didn't quite understand girls' train of thought, but he did understand Shen Xiyu a little.

"Miss, you're still as beautiful as a flower, okay?"

“…”

The way back to Shen Xiyu's house was not too long, and the two of them arrived there by just taking a stroll.

At the entrance of the community, Shen Xiyu stopped and said goodbye to Qin Yiyan.

Looking at his back as he walked in the opposite direction, Shen Xiyu couldn't help but think of this road in the past. It was always someone else who walked with her, and he would never just stop here and leave his back to her.

Sure enough, it still hasn't reached the end.

"Qin Yiyan!"

"Huh?" The boy turned his head. "What's wrong?"

"Tell him I won't contact him anymore, but I've never really blamed him. I think I've learned what he wanted to teach me. If, if there really is a chance..."

Shen Xiyu got stuck in the middle of his speech. What's the point of having a chance? How could anyone tell what would happen in the future? How could he have made the same mistake as Liang Qi?

Qin Yiyan was still waiting patiently for her to continue.

"It's okay, there are no ifs, just the first two sentences."
