Chapter 27 Chapter 27 He is used to suppressing his emotions, even in summer...
Si Cheng kissed him for a while, then let go of his hand and just hugged his waist.
Xia Ji was angry and was breathless from being kissed. The first second he was released, he raised his hand to pull away.
Si Cheng narrowed his eyes after being hit by him. When he hit him for the second time, he grabbed his hand and warned him, "I don't care what you think. If you do something dangerous like this again, I will lock you up..."
Xia Ji struggled to pull his hand free, slapped him again, and started to spout nonsense, "Then I'm going to die! You might as well just kill me! I'll see what you'll do if I die!"
Si Cheng frowned and grabbed Xia Ji's hand.
Xia Ji was cursing and crying. At this time, Si Cheng's cell phone rang. The caller ID said it was Ding Man, but when he picked up the phone, it was a stranger.
"Hello, is this Ding Man's family? She was in a serious car accident. We are at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jingxi University..."
Xia Ji had already subconsciously stopped talking after seeing that it was Ding Man calling, but now he could clearly hear the voice on the phone. An expression of shock and fear unconsciously appeared on his face.
Si Cheng immediately pulled Xia Ji up and strode out.
Halfway through the walk, he remembered something, returned to the desk, took two pieces of paper, tucked the phone between his ears and shoulders, pinched Xia Ji's chin, and wiped the tears and snot from his face.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately went to Si Guanjun's bedroom and woke him up.
The entire Si residence seemed to be in turmoil. No one went to inform the old man, nor did they dare to inform him.
Xia Ji couldn't help crying again.
Si Cheng dragged him into a car, holding him tightly in his arms as if he was grasping at a life-saving straw.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when the three of them arrived at the hospital. Ding Man was still in the emergency room. Si Guanqing was extremely anxious and called around to contact people in the hospital and dispatch expert doctors from all over the place.
Si Cheng was sitting on the bench in the corridor holding Xia Ji. His expression was expressionless. Only his eyes and his hands tightly holding Xia Ji revealed his true emotions.
Xia Tian felt that he and Si Cheng had become a sculpture.
Seven hours later, Ding Man was finally pushed out of the operating room.
She was in a car accident because of a drunk driver on the opposite side. The two cars collided at high speed and were seriously damaged. She was rescued with multiple fractures all over her body. The other car exploded directly, and both the driver and the car were burned to charcoal.
When Xia Ji stood up, his whole body was weak. Seeing Ding Man's pale face, he called her "Auntie" in a crying voice.
Si Guanqing's eyes were also red.
Si Cheng held Xia Ji's hand tightly.
The three of them followed Ding Man's bed and pushed her into the intensive care unit with the nurse.
The doctor called Si Guanqing over and gave him some instructions.
Xia Tian leaned against the small window of the ward door and watched the nurses surrounding Ding Man, turning on various medical equipment quickly and orderly.
"He was fine during dinner." Xia Ji choked.
Si Cheng looked into the ward through Xia Ji's figure, his eyes still deep, and there seemed to be some deep sorrow in his heart.
He is usually depressed and I rarely see him laugh in the summer.
Looking back at the original plot, it seems that around this time, Ding Man was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She only survived for more than three months before she passed away.
After she left, it was a huge blow to Si Guanqing, and the entire Si family's situation began to decline.
Si Guanqing, who was originally a workaholic, had no intention of handling the company's affairs after her death, which allowed some people with ulterior motives to take advantage of the situation.
None of them could say a word of comfort, they could only wait and wait.
My heart feels heavy as if it has rained heavily for many days in a row.
The old man couldn't keep it secret for long and found out the next day.
The entire Si family seemed to have come to a standstill. His sons and grandsons were all staying in the hospital, and the old man had to go to the company in person to handle urgent business.
On the third day, the doctor finally allowed family members to visit the patient in the intensive care unit.
During this period, Ding Man's electrocardiogram suddenly sounded an alarm and turned into a straight line.
Xia Ji couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down, but was caught by Si Cheng.
Fortunately, the doctor arrived in time and gave them first aid after rushing them out.
Two weeks later, after treatment by several experts, Ding Man finally returned to normal and gradually regained consciousness.
Xia Ji didn't have the heart to argue with Si Cheng about relationships, trust and other such things.
No matter how difficult those things are, they are not as important as Ding Man.
He spent almost the entire second half of the year in the hospital, accompanying Ding Man in her rehabilitation and staying by her side.
The men in the Si family also got back on track. Those who should go to work went to work, and those who should go home to recuperate also went home to recuperate.
J City is located in the north, and the first snow of winter fell at the end of November.
Ding Man was also transferred from the hospital to a nursing home with a better environment.
It was a little after four in the evening when the sky darkened and snowflakes kept falling from the gray-black sky.
After having dinner with Ding Man, Xia Ji read to her.
Because the doctor told her that it was too tiring for her to read on her own, I always read to her in the summer.
She can read whatever she wants, whether it’s classics or online novels, she loves them all.
At around seven o'clock, Ding Man took her medicine, listened to Xia Tian's reading for a while, and then fell asleep.
She has lost a lot of weight and is not as energetic as before.
Xia Ji closed the book, tucked in the quilt for her, and sat in the plush chair with his head propped up, staring blankly.
Ding Man really looks like his mother. In his previous life, his parents divorced and almost no one cared about him.
From the moment they met, this woman was very nice to her, too nice even.
Xia Ji is a soft-hearted person. As long as you treat him well, he will agree to anything.
Around eight o'clock, Si Cheng and Si Guanqing arrived in the wind and snow, exhausted.
As the year draws to a close, work in the group becomes increasingly busy.
During this period, Si Guanqing took to heart how Xia Ji took care of Ding Man. In the past, because his wife and son loved him so much and he was often at the company, he didn't spend much time with Xia Ji. Now, he has some more real feelings for him.
After asking about Ding Man's condition, he also reminded her to take care of her health and get enough rest in the summer.
After Si Guanqing left, Si Cheng stayed for a while. When Ding Man was seriously ill before, it was often him and Xia Ji who took care of her.
Xia Ji had nothing to say to him. If everything was still the same as before, there was no need to solve some problems, because they would be solved naturally after the past.
But everything was really different, so there was nothing to say. In fact, because Xia Tian had been worrying about Ding Man's affairs during this period, the gap between him and her became deeper.
As soon as Si Cheng walked to Xia Ji, Xia Ji stood up. At this time, Ding Man woke up again, and Si Cheng went over and said a few words to her.
Xia Ji watched from the side without interrupting.
After Si Cheng left, Ding Man finally couldn't help it. When Xia Ji was arranging the books on her bedside table, she held his hand.
"Ji Ji, tell your auntie, what happened between you and Si Cheng? Didn't you like him very much before?"
Xia Ji pulled the chair closer to the bed and asked Ding Man to hold his hand and sit down.
Yes, he liked her. Who didn't like the protagonist? But could he tell her about those things? He was afraid that Ding Man would be hurt.
I remember when we first moved into the Si family's old house, the old man said that he hoped Ding Man could have more children so that the family would be prosperous and the old house would not be lonely and the family would have more people to support it.
What should he do now? Si Cheng was always with him, not even Bai Yueguang, and even grabbed his hand and kissed him when he slapped him. How could he have such a prosperous family? Where could he find a child?
"It's nothing. Auntie, don't worry about these things." Xia Ji said.
Ding Man sighed and did not press the issue. She just turned her head to look out the window and changed her way of speaking.
The thick yellow and white curtains were not completely closed, leaving a gap of a palm's length, enough to see some of the scenery outside the window.
"You and Sicheng grew up together. Have you ever felt that there was something wrong with his personality?"
Ding Man's voice was very soft, mixed with obvious love.
"I was 26 when he was born. The pregnancy was very stressful for me and I didn't have much love for the child. But after he was born and I saw him for the first time, everything was different."
"He was a very cute and beautiful child. I couldn't leave him completely with a nanny, so I took care of him myself, even though I wasn't in good health at the time."
"I did everything for him myself. I couldn't leave him for even a moment. If I couldn't see him for a while, my anxiety would set in. It wasn't until he was four that I gradually recovered."
"He was born with love, and his father and I have always had a good relationship. He should have been a lively and cheerful child. But one day, when he was standing with other children, I realized how quiet he was. It was almost like he had autism."
"He's normal at home, just a little less talkative. But when he's out, he almost never speaks. There's always a blank look in his eyes, no emotion, and none of the innocence that other children have."
Xia Ji subconsciously wanted to pull his hand away, but Ding Man held it even tighter.
She didn't look at Xia Tian, but only at the snowflakes falling under the streetlight outside the window. Her thin hands clenched so tightly that Xia Tian felt pain.
"At that time, I wondered what went wrong. His family clearly had plenty of love and money, and everyone was so kind to him. How could they raise a child with such a repressed personality? It was like he'd been carrying a heavy burden since he was little."
"When I took him to see a doctor, he was very reluctant. I even went to see a psychologist myself, wondering if it was my postpartum separation anxiety that affected him."
"The doctor said there was nothing wrong with him and that his quietness might just be a personality issue. But every time I see him alone, away from people, I can't help but feel heartbroken. I want him to be happy and joyful. I hope he can be like other children, with a smile on his face every day and a carefree life."
"When he grew up a little and showed intelligence beyond that of ordinary children, I finally consoled myself by thinking that the reason he was always so gloomy was because he was too smart and had such a high IQ. I gradually found some comfort in my heart."
"Asking him to participate in a children's variety show is also to see if a change of environment can change his unsociable personality."
Xia Ji also looked out the window. Ding Man's expression of maternal love made him feel heavy in his heart.
