...
Li Li walked to the door of Su Beibei's ward, his hand on the doorknob, ready to turn it and walk into the ward. But then he realized that he was a little emotional and it was not appropriate to talk to Su Beibei, so he turned around and went to the fire escape.
Li Li stood in the fire escape and smoked a cigarette. After calming down, he went to the ward.
On the sickbed, Su Beibei lay motionless, with her back to the ward door, looking like she was asleep.
Li Li walked lightly around to Su Beibei's bed. As he got closer, he realized that Su Beibei's eyes were open. "Aren't you asleep?" His voice was gentle, not as sharp as it had been on the phone.
Su Beibei glanced at him and saw that he had nothing in his hands. She guessed that the divorce documents might have been torn up by him.
What will change if you tear up the document?
"Ali." Su Beibei called him.
Li Li quickly bent down and reached out to hold Su Beibei's hand. "I'm here."
Su Beibei looked at the ring on her ring finger and said, "Do you still remember what you said when you put this ring on me?"
The scene on the wedding day seems to have happened just yesterday, everything is still vivid in my mind.
Li Li nodded and said, "Remember, I promised you that I would always treat you well, respect you, and love you for the rest of my life. I also said that meeting you is the greatest blessing in my life."
"Until this moment, I still feel that the best thing I've done in my life was opening XX Bookstore one sleepless night, seeing Colonel Beibei's book, and spending 50,000 yuan to become Colonel Beibei's fan."
Li Li knelt in front of Su Beibei's bed. He kissed her fingertips and said with tears in his eyes, "Beibei, I feel very happy to be married to you. I love you very much, really. Can you please not divorce me?"
When Su Beibei heard what Li Li said, she burst into tears.
Li Li knew that Su Beibei was moved by his words and her idea of divorce had begun to waver.
He seized the opportunity and said, "And Neil, he's still so young, so cute, and so smart. Do you have the heart to divorce me and let him become a child from a single-parent family?"
This sentence hit Su Beibei's soft spot.
Seeing Su Beibei's resolute expression begin to waver, Li Li continued, "Beibei, I grew up in a single-parent family, and you lost your parents when you were young. We all understand how much it affects a child's growth if they don't have a complete family."
"Beibei, for Neil's sake, let's continue this marriage and not get divorced, okay?"
Su Beibei's heart wasn't made of iron. Li Li's words moved her emotionally and logically, and her hardened heart softened bit by bit. Just as Su Beibei was about to nod in agreement, Li Li's cell phone suddenly rang.
The sharp ringing startled both of them.
Li Li didn't want to answer the phone, but Su Beibei said, "Go ahead, don't miss anything important."
"...Yeah, okay."
Li Li took out his cell phone and saw the name of his mother's nurse. He subconsciously glanced at Su Beibei and said, "It's not an important call." This time, Li Li hung up the phone directly.
Su Beibei felt that the call was urgent, as if there was something serious. "Answer it. Maybe your mother really wants to talk to you."
Su Beibei insisted, so Li Li finally called the nurse.
As soon as the call was connected, Li Li heard the nurse shouting loudly and anxiously on the phone: "Mr. Li! Mr. Li, please come quickly! Aunt Li is dying! The doctor asked you to come, please come..."
"Come and see her one last time!"
Li Li's pupils suddenly widened!
"What did you say..." Li Li thought he had misheard. He stood up suddenly and scolded the nurse in a stern tone: "What did you say? Wasn't my mother fine before?"
The nurse was extremely anxious. She spoke rapidly, "Auntie Li has been feeling sick and unwell since noon. She kept asking me to call you, and I did. But what you said on the phone earlier made Auntie Li's blood pressure soar that she vomited blood and fainted on the spot."
"Just now the doctors and others were giving first aid to the old man, but..." The nurse's voice became softer, as quiet as a mosquito, "The doctor asked you to come as soon as possible, the sooner the better..."
Upon hearing this, Li Li's phone fell to the ground.
He murmured, "How could it be..."
Su Beibei also heard what the nurse said. She said in surprise and shock: "Ali, go quickly, go quickly!"
Li Li finally came back to his senses. He picked up his phone, got up and ran out.
Su Beibei stared at the empty house, her heart feeling empty again. She thought for a moment before picking up her phone and calling her aunt.
When my aunt answered the phone, she heard Su Beibei say, "Auntie, the old lady is dying. Take Nei to Jiefang Hospital right away."
The aunt was shocked. "How could this happen? Wasn't the operation successful? How could it suddenly stop working?"
Su Beibei didn't know the specifics, but she guessed that Li Li's mother's sudden illness must be related to Li Li. She didn't tell her aunt about her guess, but just said, "Take Neil with you; she's his grandmother after all."
"well!"
-
Li Li's hands were shaking so much that he didn't dare to get in the car. He ran out of the hospital, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for Jiefang Hospital.
Every minute and every second sitting in the car seemed like a year. Li Li kept looking at the time and the street scene outside the window.
