Chapter 55 Sweater



Suddenly, a sentence echoed in my ears: Aunt Gu and Sister Gu don’t know how to knit sweaters...

Lin Qingping suppressed the doubts in her heart and began to wash it inside and out. However, when she was washing the inside from the inside out, she discovered a detail that was very easy to overlook.

On the left hem of the sweater, there was a very small piece of black cloth sewn on it. There was a very small word written on it, so faint that it was almost invisible.

She carefully identified the character and found it was "Chen".

She suddenly understood why the stitching of this sweater looked familiar.

Because she had seen it not long ago.

The sweater that Chen Xia held in front of her and asked her to bring to Gu Juncheng was knitted with exactly this kind of stitching.

Lin Qingping felt as if her heart was hit hard by a sledgehammer. She held the sweater in her hand and stared blankly for a long time.

"Huh? You are washing clothes too? Are you from Captain Gu's family?" A family member who looked about the same age as her came over. He had a sweet and lovely face and spoke to her with a smile, holding a basin of clothes in his hands.

Lin Qingping smiled and said, "Yeah."

"I'm the family member of Wu Tianping in the next ward. My name is Meili. What about you?"

"My name is Lin Qingping." Lin Qingping had almost finished washing and was packing up her things with a smile.

Mary nodded and frowned as she looked at the basin of clothes, thinking and poking them with her fingers. It seemed that she didn't know how to wash clothes.

Seeing that Lin Qingping had finished washing, he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll invite you to wash clothes with me next time."

Then he continued to study the basin of clothes.

Lin Qingping had something on her mind, so she didn't talk to her any more and left with a basin of washed clothes.

Because the weather was very cold, the hospital had a boiler to heat the radiator, so Lin Qingping put her clothes on the radiator to dry.

Xiaotian came to call her, "Sister-in-law, go and eat something."

Lin Qingping felt upset and looked back at Gu Juncheng. When he first woke up, she was so excited and ecstatic, but now it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her, chilling her heart.

But Gu Juncheng was glaring at her, as if he knew she hadn't eaten all day.

Was it Oda who said that?

In fact, she hadn't eaten for more than one day. Ever since she learned that he was injured in Gujia Village, she had lost her appetite and could not eat.

Fine, she went to eat, lest he lose his temper again.

Still, it was late at night and there was no food left in the cafeteria. When she walked out of the inpatient building, she felt the cold wind biting into her bones.

"Sister-in-law!" Oda chased out.

Lin Qingping turned around.

"The leader asked me to take you to dinner." Xiaotian added, "It will be fine in a while. The nurse is here."

Lin Qingping nodded, not wanting to argue with Xiaotian.

Oda took her to a small restaurant next to the hospital and ordered a bowl of hot noodles for her.

Lin Qingping ordered two bowls.

Young people of Oda's age eat a lot and get hungry quickly.

Oda scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

Lin Qingping sat down in the shop.

The boss served them steaming hot noodles and gave each of them an egg. "Today is the last day. We will be closed tomorrow. It's Chinese New Year!"

Yes, tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, no wonder all the shops outside are closed.

"Xiaotian." While eating noodles, Lin Qingping asked him, "How long has your captain been wearing that sweater? It looks quite old to me, why is he still wearing it? Doesn't he have any other clothes?"

Xiaotian thought for a while, "It's been a long time, right? I saw it when I came to the captain. When the weather is cold, the captain wears this when he goes out in casual clothes. He cherishes it very much and probably won't throw it away."

Lin Qingping felt like chewing wax the moment he put the noodles in his mouth.

She remembered that she had knitted a sweater for him as well, and she had finished it before his birthday. She had come all the way to visit him and celebrate his birthday, but in the end, he didn't care at all.

She remembered a lot of things in an instant and connected many small things together.

No wonder, when she said she wanted to visit relatives, he told her not to go; the last time he came home and she was so happy to be with him, he asked her for a divorce.

At that time, she was still thinking, she had never mentioned divorce in her previous life, so why did he mention divorce after he was reborn?

Could it be that in her previous life, Chen Xia went to the city and never returned to the village? And her rebirth also changed Chen Xia's trajectory?

She suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

When he asked for a divorce, she stubbornly refused and threatened him with all kinds of words. She came with the intention of making amends and wanting to love him well once and for all, but who knew that she would end up ruining his plans?

Later, he never mentioned divorce again. Was he scared by her unreasonable remarks? Was he afraid of bringing a bad influence to her? Did he decide to be responsible for her after marrying her?

He is indeed such a responsible person...

Otherwise, he obviously didn't love her in his previous life, but he still left her so much money and asked his family to take care of her because he felt guilty about her.

Then, she remembered that he refused to have sex with her in both his past life and this life. Was it because he really couldn't do it or didn't want to?

For a moment, she was filled with thoughts and only her brain was working non-stop. Her whole movements were mechanical. She ate the noodles mechanically, one mouthful after another, and swallowed each mouthful mechanically. She didn't even know when the noodles in the bowl were finished, and she was still stuffing chopsticks into her mouth one mouthful after another.

Until Xiaotian looked at her in surprise and asked her, "Sister-in-law, are you not full? How about another bowl?"

She suddenly came to her senses.

"No... I'm full, let's go." Lin Qingping said hurriedly.

When I returned to the ward, Gu Juncheng was awake.

Lin Qingping felt very sad when she saw his appearance.

He has always been so serious, always solemn in front of her, and sometimes even fierce. She suddenly wanted to know what he would be like in front of Chen Xia. Was the young Cheng Zi also so serious?

She said she came to take care of him, but in fact, there was not much she could do in his current condition. She just watched the medicine in the bottle, turned him over every once in a while, and emptied the urine in the urine bag.

When people are idle, they are particularly prone to being overwhelmed by their emotions.

Lin Qingping didn't want to be trapped in sad mood.

A bed for accompanying patients had been placed in the ward, so she sat down on it, took out a notebook and pen from her bag, and began to draw pictures for next spring's collection, which she had promised Director Hu.

She kept drawing and drawing until the nurse came to turn off the lights, and then she put away her pen and notebook.

She did not forget to ask Gu Juncheng if he needed anything.

He closed his eyes and shook his head.

Lin Qingping didn't say anything, but just reminded herself to be more alert at night, not to sleep too deeply, and to wake up more often.

Then, he lay down in her accompanying bed.

As a result, she found that she was overthinking and couldn't fall asleep. She couldn't fall asleep at all.

She had no choice but to conceive her new design in her mind. Only by devoting herself to her career would she not be sad, right?

But, I don’t know when, the pillow became wet.

She is clearly conceiving and designing it?
