When Su Qiao woke up again, it was already dark.
The room was brightly lit.
But it seemed very empty.
Su Qiao touched the spot next to her.
But she couldn't touch the child.
Su Qiao felt a sudden emptiness in her heart and was momentarily panicked.
Where are the children?
Su Qiao stood up barefoot and searched around the room.
It was empty everywhere.
Apart from this bedroom, it's all dark outside.
Su Qiao picked up a flashlight, trying to illuminate the outside world.
Still, there was no sign of them.
Outside, yellow sand filled the sky.
It covered everything up.
Su Qiao felt as if she had been hit by a sandstorm, and she fell backward.
My face still had coarse sand particles on it.
The next second.
Su Qiao woke up again.
I reached out and touched it.
It's empty.
But my face looks a bit heavy.
It turned out that Xiao Huai had climbed onto her face.
It was rubbing its little head against Su Qiao's face.
So the sandstorm in my dream was all thanks to Xiao Huai?
Su Qiao found it both funny and helpless.
He reached out and gently patted Xiao Huai's bottom, then moved him away.
The little boy covered his bottom and protested softly.
Although Su Qiao couldn't understand it either.
Xiao Huai whimpered, crawled to his sister's side, lay down, and watched his sister sleep.
The room was very quiet.
A strong arm was wrapped around Su Qiao's waist.
He held her waist tightly in his arms.
His body heat flowed continuously toward Su Qiao.
It dispelled some of the chill of the evening breeze.
I noticed she was awake.
Lu Xiangze also woke up.
His hands tightened their grip.
Su Qiao seemed to be embedded in his body.
It's like an indispensable part of him.
Lu Xiangze's voice was still hoarse from just waking up: "Awake? Are you hungry?"
Su Qiao turned around and buried her head in the crook of his neck.
There was no answer to this question.
Instead, she whispered, "I'm a little scared."
Lu Xiangze also put his other arm around her waist.
He grabbed Su Qiao's waist and pressed her down onto him.
He pressed her head against his chest and gently stroked her back.
"I've always been here."
"I can't bear to part with you. I can't bear to part with the children either."
She actually knew that the reason she fainted today was because there had been no progress for too long.
The spring water was originally meant to provide protection for three days after drinking it once.
Now I have to drink one cup every day.
The reason for this is obvious.
However, these things cannot be accomplished simply by wishing for them to happen.
Scientific research is not an industry where results can be achieved in a short period of time.
But Su Qiao doesn't regret her choice.
As long as she tried.
Then there will be no regrets.
It's one thing to understand something, but it's quite another to actually do it.
She genuinely wanted to live a good life.
But fate is cruel.
This makes her ties to this world heavier and more numerous.
"Can you take me with you?" Lu Xiangze's muffled voice rang out.
Chest vibration.
Su Qiao almost doubted what she had heard.
Lu Xiangze repeated it again.
Su Qiao thought for a moment, but still shook her head.
"What will happen to the children if we all leave?"
"To be honest, I originally wanted to go to university and experience university life. Now it seems like that's unlikely."
I want to expand the business of the vegetables I sell in this space to all corners of the country, so that everyone can enjoy delicious and healthy food without worrying about their grocery shopping.
I want to watch Xiao Huai and Xiao Xia go to school and grow up day by day. Then, I want them to come to me with their partners and say, 'Mom, this is the person I want to spend my life with.'... I want to do so many things. But, will it be too late for me?"
"If there's still time, there definitely will be."
As Lu Xiangze continued speaking, his voice choked with emotion.
Tears welled up in Su Qiao's eyes without her noticing.
Su Qiao and Lu Xiangze chatted on and on about various things, including their speculations about her symptoms and what had happened to make her like this.
In fact, it can be considered a kind of disguised correction.
As long as she escapes her fate for various reasons, that invisible hand desires to rearrange her destiny back to what it was before.
Su Qiao felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it.
I cursed him severely several times.
Thunder rumbled outside.
It was almost daytime.
Su Qiao and Lu Xiangze: ...
They won't even let people talk about it.
They both held back their tears.
Xiao Huai and Xiao Xia are asleep again.
Su Qiao put the two children in the space.
Continue chatting with Lu Xiangze.
By daybreak, the two had managed to get a few hours of sleep.
When she woke up, Su Qiao was still lying on top of Lu Xiangze.
When Lu Xiangze woke up, he still felt a little short of breath.
But seeing Su Qiao's sleeping face made me feel satisfied.
Su Qiao woke up early in the morning because of her biological clock.
Seeing Lu Xiangze lying there with a flushed face, she realized that she had apparently slept on him all night.
She quickly smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes.
"I accidentally fell asleep..."
"Yes, I'd be happy to be your mattress."
Lu Xiangze kissed her forehead and then went to cook.
It seemed like the two of them were just talking about ordinary things yesterday, nothing special.
In the instant they turned around, all they could think about was how to escape this damned fate.
Su Qiao went to work as usual.
The senior people in the office were all very kind and caring towards her.
I repeatedly reminded her to take care of her health.
After finishing her work, Su Qiao found Ye Suduo and talked to him about the things she had been researching.
There was also a huge stack of data and drawings, etc.
After reading the first page.
Ye Suduo looked at another page in disbelief.
His fingers quickly turned the pages.
"These details are very comprehensive; it's almost ready for production. What are your plans then?"
Su Qiao didn't expect her second uncle to have such a high opinion of her.
"These are not my research findings; I just saw them in the textbook and copied them down."
"textbook?"
Ye Suduo was puzzled. He had seen many textbooks before, but he had never seen anything like this before.
Su Qiaocai said, "This may just be a dream. I have seen the prosperity of our motherland in my dream. These are just some things that every household has... I have seen these things, and I hope to promote them throughout the country."
Ye Suduo listened to Su Qiao's words and did not ask any further questions.
"I hope my second uncle can keep these for me and release them at a suitable time."
"Aren't you going to publish it yourself?"
What a great opportunity! It's a chance to make a name for yourself.
Ye Suduo didn't understand why Su Qiao was declining.
"I can't go. Besides, I quite like freedom, and doing scientific research isn't really my thing."
Hearing this, Ye Suduo didn't dare to persuade him any further, and simply put the box away.
After returning home, I carefully reviewed those materials.
Divide things into several parts.
We plan to realize them one by one in the future.
Ye Suduo discovered that these were basically improved versions of the original plans.
Basically, nothing needs to be changed.
The list includes both the original and improved versions. With a few exceptions, the improved versions are generally better than the original versions.
Ye Suduo was also surprised by Su Qiao's talent.
To be able to come up with so many projects all at once.
They were all revised very well, which was beyond his expectations.
Time passed quickly.
Su Qiao has been at the research institute for almost a year.
The deadline is fast approaching.
That day, after Su Qiao went out, she saw a sea of crimson before her eyes.
It completely collapsed.
Before she closed her eyes, she saw the ground covered in dust from her slamming.
They also heard Lu Xiangze's heart-wrenching roar.
A stream of cool spring water flowed continuously from the corner of his mouth.
Su Qiao's body, however, was protesting.
Everything around seemed to have stopped.
Lao Hu originally wanted to share the project's success with everyone, since the results from the first day were in.
This product became an instant hit upon its release, with everyone rushing to buy it.
But to his surprise, before he could even send the message out, Su Qiao fainted.
This time, the doctors at the hospital found it increasingly strange as they took her pulse.
The smiles that were once there are gone.
His brows were furrowed tightly.
"Your spouse..." the doctor seemed to be thinking about how to say it.
Lu Xiangze looked at the doctor, feeling a deep sadness in his heart.
When the day finally arrived, he found himself unable to cry.
Because in his heart, Su Qiao has always been there.
"Your spouse... may be unable to move in the future."
Lu Xiangze's eyes lit up. Did this mean that there was still a chance to struggle?
Maybe he'll wake up then?
Moreover, he can only be immobilized; he might recover in the future.
The doctor looked at Lu Xiangze with some suspicion; something seemed off about him.
He was happy that his lover had become a vegetable. Could it be that he was the one who did it?
The doctor looked at Lu Xiangze with suspicion.
Lu Xiangze then realized that his behavior was very strange.
"Doctor, what should I do after this? This should be treatable, right?"
Upon hearing this, the doctor realized what he had been thinking.
He listed the precautions one by one.
Old Hu was also waiting outside. When he heard about this, he was struck dumb.
He just said that he had unearthed a treasure, but after only one year, the atmosphere of the entire research institute had changed, and now he's in a vegetative state.
this……
But there was nothing he could do, no matter how much he regretted it.
The environment and climate here are not suitable for Su Qiao's recuperation.
If she wants to recover, she needs to return to an environment that suits her.
so.
Lu Xiangze took Su Qiao back.
To express his apology, Lao Hu used all his official cars to transport people.
Hearing that the most outstanding expert was currently in S City, Lu Xiangze led his team back to S City.
Su Jin and Xu Mingyue received the news well in advance.
Hearing they were coming back, I prepared all sorts of things early in the morning to make things easier for them.
Su Qiao is like a rag doll now. Although she is dressed cleanly and neatly, she gives people a feeling of emptiness and helplessness.
Seeing her daughter like this, tears immediately streamed down her face.
When Su Jin saw Lu Xiangze, she even wanted to punch him, but she held back in the end.
Finally, their gazes fell on the two little ones at the very back.
Lu Xiangze gently patted Xiao Huai's head.
"These are my maternal grandparents."
Xiao Huai and Xiao Xia stood on either side of Lu Xiangze, holding onto his trouser legs.
I was quite interested in those two kind faces.
Especially when they saw Su Jin, the two little ones almost called out "Second Grandfather".
Luckily, we were stopped.
These things still can't be said right now.
After being reminded again, the two little ones nodded and obediently called out "Grandpa and Grandma".
It melted their hearts.
It eased my sadness a little.
Lu Xiangze turned around and took all the things into the Su family's house.
I wanted to invite the ride-hailing driver to stay for dinner, but he declined.
This indicates that they have other tasks to complete.
Lu Xiangze then did not insist on keeping him.
Following his mother-in-law's instructions, Lu Xiangze placed all the items in Su Qiao's room.
Su Jin and Xu Mingyue took the child away.
Lu Xiangze parked Su Qiao's wheelchair to the side.
He made the bed while talking to her.
Everyone says that talking to people in a vegetative state can help them become more active.
Whether it's true or false, Lu Xiangze will persist.
"I was worried I wouldn't be able to get into the house today, but thankfully Xiao Huai and the others were there. They managed to distract them a little."
My parents-in-law both cried when they saw you today. Although they acted quickly, I saw it all…
Look at you, you're making everyone worry just by playing a game, isn't that a bit much?
I really look forward to you waking up right away tomorrow and saying hello to me, "You're awake!"
I wonder if you can grant me this little wish?
Lu Xiangze rambled on and on.
After saying that, he looked at Su Qiao's expression, hoping to see something different.
Unfortunately, no.
That night, the child was supposed to sleep with Lu Xiangze.
However, Xu Mingyue thought that he still had to take care of Su Qiao, so she took the initiative to take on the task of taking care of the child.
Xiao Huai and Xiao Xia are very easy to take care of.
Lu Xiangze also had time to take Su Qiao to the hospital for a checkup.
The test results from the hospital and the research institute are very similar.
There are just more machines here.
Lu Xiangze did not lose heart, but instead began to inquire about the whereabouts of other doctors.
Last time, when he was in Qingshui Brigade, he was able to ask Grandpa Wang for help.
But I heard that not long after they left, Old Master Wang also passed away.
I have no idea where they went.
No one knows their whereabouts.
Lu Xiangze had no choice but to find another way.
These days, Lu Xiangze spends his days visiting hospitals one by one, following the addresses given to him.
In the evening, I massaged Su Qiao's body using the techniques I had learned.
In less than half a month, Lu Xiangze had lost a lot of weight.
Su Jin frowned as she watched. How could someone like that take care of his daughter and grandchildren?
The next day, he bought several kilograms of pork ribs, stewed them, and specially invited Lu Xiangze to eat them.
Lu Xiangze was utterly flattered.
Su Qiao now basically uses spiritual spring water to maintain her vital signs.
Xiao Huai has seen too much Lu Xiangze taking care of Su Qiao now.
She would also bring her younger sister to wipe Su Qiao's face and hands with her own little handkerchief.
He imitated Lu Xiangze's manner in talking to Su Qiao.
No one could understand what they were saying.
Lu Xiangze, on the other hand, has a knack for coaxing children.
When doing laundry outside, I would listen to the sounds coming from inside the room and respond with a word or two.
He would often think how wonderful it would be if Su Qiao were awake right now.
But he didn't realize that Su Qiao was watching from inside the space.
She could see everything around her, but she couldn't touch it.
She could hear these voices, and she could hear their regrets.
But there was no way to touch them.
All I could do was watch quietly.
She knew she wasn't dead.
Now we just need to find an opportunity to return to our bodies.
But what was that turning point?
