☆、One hundred and twenty next life okay?
Snowflakes began to fall outside. After seeing off Yang Linxin and Qi William, Su Qiqiao sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and quietly watched the snowflakes outside.
This was the first time she watched the snow so calmly, and it was also the first time someone accompanied her to watch the snow.
"What are you thinking about?" Nan Jinnian sat next to Su Qiqiao and looked at the snow-covered city outside. The white snow and the colorful neon lights contrasted with each other, making the whole city fall into a dream and confusion.
Su Qiqiao leaned against Nan Jinnian's arms, her features filled with a sense of ease and tranquility. She looked up at him and said, "Let's celebrate the New Year here in the future. I heard from my brother that it often snows in the capital during the New Year."
Nan Jinnian stroked her hair, which had grown to her shoulders, and whispered, "I'll do as you say."
"You say... how long can my mother hold on?" In fact, she should stay with her mother, but every time she saw her mother's forced smile, every time she pretended to be indifferent, she felt her heart aching.
It was obvious that she had only known her parents for half a year, but her mother expressed all the love she had not given her in the past twenty years to her in this short period of time. She used to hate her parents and hated why they abandoned her, but... now she couldn't bear them and didn't want to care about what caused her disappearance. She just wanted to be like an ordinary person, with her family being well and her parents in good health.
But God can never see her well...
Nan Jinnian placed his chin on Su Qiqiao's head, his hand grasping her slender wrist. He whispered, "Aunt Su will hold on for you."
Su Qiqiao lowered her head, looking at the pair of large hands with distinct joints, and thought of the person behind her who had experienced the death of both her father and mother...
She remembered what Aunt Nan had said to her, how kind Uncle Nan and Aunt Nan were... and the wonderful family they once were...
The heart never feels relieved, like a stone pressing on it making it difficult to breathe.
"I want to go home the day after tomorrow, okay?" Su Qiqiao looked at him with a hint of pleading in her eyes. Nan Jinnian lowered his head and kissed her forehead before saying, "Well, I'll take you home the day after tomorrow."
The winter morning light is not very dazzling, but it is brighter than usual under the illumination of the white snow.
Su Qiqiao sat up from Nan Jinnian's arms. The man next to her was still snoring softly. She looked at the time and it was already past eight o'clock.
Looking at the marks on his body, Su Qiqiao glared helplessly at someone on the bed, then got up, put on his clothes and walked to the kitchen.
Nan Jinnian was awakened by a loud noise.
Walking out of the bedroom, Nan Jinnian saw Su Qiqiao wearing an apron and making breakfast. Her focused look suddenly made Nan Jinnian feel a little unreal. The picture was really beautiful, as if they were an old couple who had been married for many years. The husband was sleepy, so the wife had to get up to make breakfast. When the husband got up, he saw his wife preparing a delicious breakfast for them.
"What are you standing there for?" Su Qiqiao raised her eyes and saw Nan Jinnian looking dazed. She couldn't help but laugh in her heart: "Go wash your face and brush your teeth quickly. We still need to go out after dinner."
Nan Jinnian was about to go to the bathroom to wash up when he heard the second half of the sentence, but he stopped and looked at Su Qiqiao: "Going out? Are you going out again today?"
"Go to the hospital to see Ah Cheng. My brother just called and said Ah Cheng's condition has stabilized and he might be able to be released from the intensive care unit tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Su Qiqiao seemed very happy about the news. Nan Jinnian also raised an eyebrow when he heard it: "That's good news."
After finishing breakfast, the two of them simply packed up and went out.
However, there was a heavy snowfall last night, which caused snow to accumulate on the road, so the road was icy and not very convenient for driving. So the two decided to take the subway to the hospital.
At the hospital, Brother Liu had been on guard all night. He was ten years older than Huo Cheng and had a family with a wife and children, so he had always taken good care of Huo Cheng. Not only was Huo Cheng the least of his worries, he had always been optimistic about this kid's abilities.
He was very optimistic about this kid when he first met him a few years ago. This kid works harder than anyone else and is more talented than anyone else, otherwise he would not have been able to bring him up in several years.
So he is both a teacher and a friend to Huo Cheng, and can be considered as a half-brother.
Now, seeing the actor he had personally trained lying lifeless in the hospital, he felt bad... Fortunately, he is out of danger now.
Su Zelin patted Brother Liu on the shoulder and said, "Brother Liu, go back and rest. I'll stay here for the next few days. Come back after this kid is transferred to the general ward."
Brother Liu shook his head when he heard this: "Boss Su, I don't have any other family members in Huocheng. I treat this kid like a younger brother, so I will come to take care of him for two more days. I will go home on the 28th."
At this time, Su Qiqiao and Nan Jinnian came over, not only that, but Yang Linxin followed behind them.
Huo Cheng's condition had improved, and Su Zelin had told her by the way, so she rushed over early in the morning.
"Brother!" Su Qiqiao looked at Su Zelin: "Did the doctor really say Huo Cheng's condition has improved?!"
Su Zelin smiled and said, "Yes, if things go well, maybe he can wake up before the New Year."
"This kid is really troublesome!" Brother Liu said as if he was complaining, but there was a sense of relief between his brows.
Su Qiqiao couldn't help but laugh: "That's good, that's good."
"This Huo City is really more chaotic than during the time of Nan Jinnian." Yang Lin rolled his eyes, but he felt relieved.
Nan Jinnian frowned and then glanced at Huo Cheng through the window. Although this kid helped him block a bullet, he had no intention of getting along with this kid in the future.
"Okay, I just made some food. Brother Liu, please have some. My brother said you stayed up all night." Su Qiqiao picked up the thermos box.
Brother Liu waved his hands and said, "It's okay, I'll go back now."
"No, you've been watching over everything these past few nights. You're more tired than the rest of us. These are a reward for you!" Su Qiqiao stuffed the thermos cup directly into Brother Liu's arms.
Seeing this, Brother Liu had no choice but to accept it, but he glanced at Su Zelin and said, "Actually, I really want Mr. Su to give me a raise. Then I feel that my hard work these days has not been in vain."
"Ahem, I'm going to the bathroom." Su Zelin pretended not to hear and prepared to walk away.
But at this moment, chaos suddenly broke out in the intensive care unit.
Nan Jinnian suddenly walked to the window and saw that the ripples of the machine next to Huo Cheng were gradually flattening, as if they would become a straight line at any time!
"What's going on?" Yang Linxin leaned against the window: "Didn't you say everything is fine?!"
"Brother?!" Su Qiqiao panicked for a moment, but Huo Cheng had been critically ill before these days, but he had survived every time...
Su Zelin was also surprised. The doctor had clearly said that the condition was improving, so why would this happen again?!
Soon, a group of doctors and nurses appeared in the intensive care unit. A nurse came over and drew the curtains, completely isolating the inside from the outside, and Su Qiqiao and others could not see what was happening inside at all.
Nan Jinnian also frowned, hugged Su Qiqiao tightly in his arms and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Brother Liu put the thermos on the chair beside him and rushed to the door of the intensive care unit.
Soon, Huo Cheng was pushed out and then quickly pushed into the operating room.
This is the first time I’ve been pushed into the operating room during this period!
Previously, rescue efforts were always carried out in the intensive care unit, but this time he was pushed into the operating room?!
"Huo Cheng!" Su Qiqiao hurriedly followed, but was pushed out of the door by the nurse.
A doctor came over and said, "The patient's heart and lung functions are rapidly weakening, and his kidney function is also beginning to stop functioning... I'm afraid this time..."
"Doctor! Didn't you say his condition is starting to improve?! Didn't you say he could be transferred to a general ward?" Brother Liu frowned at the doctor in front of him.
The doctor shook his head helplessly: "Last night we did find that the patient's condition was gradually stabilizing, but the patient's kidney function suddenly stopped this morning, and then his heart and lung functions also began to weaken..."
Su Qiqiao's body suddenly shook, and Yang Linxin leaned against the wall with a very bad look on her face.
After that, time passed by little by little, one hour, two hours... Every minute and every second touched people's hearts, making them tremble and fear.
At this time, the doctor came out and shook his head at them: "Sorry... We have tried our best."
At this moment, Yang Linxin and Su Qiqiao both sat on the ground. Nan Jinnian couldn't help but shudder. Then the doctor said, "The patient is still conscious. You can go in and talk to him for the last time."
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Su Qiqiao rushed in quickly.
Yang Linxin also ran in.
On the operating table, Huo Cheng's whole body turned pale under the light, and not a trace of blood could be seen... After seeing Huo Cheng, Su Qiqiao suddenly felt her legs extremely heavy, and Yang Linxin stood behind her, then turned around and ran out again.
Su Qiqiao walked step by step to the bedside, looking at the bloodless face, which was now at peace and quiet... No one was calling her Sister An An anymore. From now on, she didn't have to worry about him, nor did she have to be troubled by his feelings...
She still remembered that Huo Cheng always made all kinds of funny-looking moves just to make her laugh when she was suffering from depression;
She still remembered that Huo Cheng used to like to sit on the balcony with her to bask in the sun, and then search for this joke on his phone;
She still remembered that Huo Cheng always had people dress her up beautifully and force her to go out for a walk, and then tell her about the various behaviors of passers-by.
She still remembers the former Huocheng...
Yes... She remembered a lot... At that time, she wondered why she couldn't fall in love with him? Why couldn't she be with him? Why was her heart always so narrow...
"Huo Cheng..." Su Qiqiao called his name in a very light voice.
"Can you please not leave?" She held his hand, which was growing colder and colder.
But the person on the bed couldn't give any response.
She gritted her teeth to stop herself from crying, but her voice couldn't stop trembling: "If you leave, what if I get depressed again?"
"Are you really so cruel as to make me sick?" Su Qiqiao still couldn't help it, because she felt that the hand was getting colder and colder, and even made her feel that the palm of the hand was like a piece of ice.
"Acheng, I'm sorry... I know you like me, and I know everything you've done for me, but I still can't fall in love with you. My heart is too small, and I can't let you go... Acheng!" Su Qiqiao still burst into tears. She held his hand tightly: "Why do you have to be so good to me! Do you know that I can't give you what you do for me! I can't give it to you!"
Nan Jinnian rushed in upon hearing the noise. Seeing Su Qiqiao gradually collapsing, he quickly walked over and said, "Qiaoqiao!"
But Su Qiqiao couldn't hear any sound at this time, so she began to shake Huo Cheng: "Huo Cheng! Get up! Can you please get up! Get up and hit me, scold me! I beg you not to die! Please don't die!"
"Qiaoqiao!" Nan Jinnian hugged her tightly: "Don't do this..."
"Huo Cheng! Wake up, I know. Are you trying to scare me? Do you want me to agree to be with you? No! I won't be scared by you! Open your eyes, I won't be angry if you open your eyes, otherwise I will be really angry! Huo Cheng!"
But the person remains motionless...
The lines of the instrument became flatter and flatter, and the breathing became weaker and weaker.
Suddenly, Su Qiqiao stopped crying. She calmly walked out of Nan Jinnian's arms, then climbed onto Huo Cheng's chest and whispered, "How about this... You go wait for me in the next life, and then I'll be with you in the next life... So... in this life, you forgive me, and in the next life, you can get it back however you want, okay?"
"If you don't say anything, it means you agree, right?" Su Qiqiao looked at him.
Suddenly, Nan Jinnian saw the fingers beside the bed move slightly. He looked at Su Qiqiao fiercely: "Qiaoqiao!"
However, Su Qiqiao did not hear his voice. Seeing this, Nan Jinnian looked at Huo Cheng's fingers again, and sure enough, they moved again!
"Qiaoqiao! He moved!" Nan Jinnian raised his voice this time.
Su Qiqiao finally looked up at him, and he repeated, "I saw his fingers move!"
At this moment, the doctor at the door suddenly rushed in and said, "Proceed with emergency treatment immediately!"
"You go out first!" The nurse pushed Su Qiqiao and Nan Jinnian out of the operating room.
Su Zelin looked at the two of them, and the red marks under his eyes showed that he was not feeling well either.
Su Qiqiao suddenly grabbed Nan Jinnian's sleeve: "Anan! Huo Cheng is not dead! He is not dead, right?!"
Nan Jinnian pursed her lips, then nodded: "He won't die easily."
Su Zelin and Brother Liu came over and asked, "What's going on?"
Su Qiqiao said happily, "Acheng is moving again! He's not dead yet! He's still alive!"
Soon, the doctor came out of the operating room. This time, he said with a smile, "It seems that Miss Su's words just now aroused the patient's strong will to live. This time, the patient made it through!"
"Ah! That's great!" Su Qiqiao excitedly jumped onto Nan Jinnian, who quickly caught her. Su Qiqiao exclaimed ecstatically, "Huo Cheng made it! He made it!"
"Yeah, I heard it." Nan Jinnian also breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Zelin was a little surprised when he heard this. He walked up to the doctor and said, "Did you really make it this time?!"
"Yes, and... the patient is showing signs of waking up. I guess he will wake up after the anesthetic wears off!" The doctor was also surprised.
After all, this case can be said to be a miracle.
