The engagement banquet was finally over, Zhuo Xiuning really felt very tired, not only physically, but also the fatigue in his heart could not be described in words, and he never thought about it, because it was useless for him to think about it.
But when he returned to the apartment, he received a call from Zeping.
"Xuning? Are you there?"
"What's wrong?" There was a rare nervousness in Zeping's deep voice, which Zhuo Xiuning could tell when he heard it.
"Minmin... Minmin, she fainted." The deep voice came again, and one could imagine Zeping's deep frown when he spoke.
Zhuo Xiuning stopped for a while, and finally came to his senses, "I'll come over now, where are you?"
"We are on our way to the hospital." Zeng Zeping said.
After cutting off the phone, Zhuo Xiuning took the elevator downstairs again and walked towards the parking lot.
When Zhuo Xiuning came out of the ward, he only felt powerless, because he didn't know how to tell Zeping Huamin's situation.
"Xuning."
Seeing Zeping's worried and concerned eyes, Zhuo Xiuning couldn't help closing his eyes.
Zhuo's father and Zhuo's mother were also on the side, and they all looked at Zhuo Xiuning alone.
"Xuning, how is Xiaomin's situation?" Zhuo's mother asked eagerly.
Zhuo Xiuning lowered his eyes, took off his mask and said, "Xiao Min is already awake, you can go and see her first, and we will wait for all the inspection reports to come out in detail."
When Zhuo's father and Zhuo's mother heard him say this, they couldn't wait to walk into the ward, but Zeng Zeping didn't move. He just looked at Zhuo Xiuning and asked in a low voice, "Xuning, you should already know the result, right?"
Zhuo Xiuning looked at him without speaking.
"Why didn't you say it if it wasn't serious?" Zeng Zeping asked again, staring at Zhuo Xiuning.
Of course, Zhuo Xiuning knew that all this could never be concealed, so he slowly said, "Xiaomi's kidneys are too burdened, and now she is diagnosed with kidney failure." He never looked at Zeng Zeping's face when he said that.
"How could this be?" Zeng Zeping was obviously taken aback, and his face turned pale.
Zhuo Xiuning raised his eyes to look at him, and couldn't help frowning, then he turned his eyes away and said lightly, "You can ask Xiaomin yourself... I just found out about this."
He couldn't face Zeping like this, he didn't want anything to happen to Xiaomin, and he didn't want Zeping to be sad, but—
Zeng Zeping looked at Xiuning, he almost forgot that he was also a relative of Zhuo Huamin, not just a doctor.
"Sorry." Zeng Zeping whispered to Zhuo Xiuning.
Zhuo Xiuning looked at him with no expression on his face, only said to Zeng Zeping, "Go see her first."
"Well." Zeng Zeping looked at him for a moment, then nodded and turned to walk into the ward.
Zhuo Xiuning stood outside the ward for a while, and saw Hua Min's hand being tightly held by Zeng Zeping through the door of the ward.
He turned his face, turned and left the ward.
Coming to the corner of the corridor, Zhuo Xiuning took out a cigarette.
It was still dark outside the window, and the night scene at this time looked similar to the one at the banquet just now, but it was less than a few hours ago, and now people were in the hospital.
Such a dark sky can make him calm.
Suddenly the bell rang in his pocket, and Zhuo Xiuning picked it up.
"Xuning?" It was Cen Yun's voice, "I just heard Pei tell me, what's going on?" Cen Yun asked on the phone.
"… "
"Xuning, how are you, are you alright?"
"… fine."
"Xiaomi, what's her... What's wrong?"
Zhuo Xiuning paused for a while, and then said softly, "She... may need a kidney transplant."
There was no sound on the other end of the phone for a long time, and Zhuo Xiuning didn't ring either. He just leaned against the wall wearily and closed his eyes.
"Xuning..."
"what?"
"...What are you... going to do?" Cen Yun asked in a low voice.
Zhuo Xiuning knew what Cen Yun was asking, he smiled lightly and said, "Do what I should do."
Cen Yun didn't know what to say
, but heard Zhuo Xiuning say again, "Sister Cen, don't worry too much, Xiaomin should be fine."
"Then what do you do?" Cen Yun couldn't help asking.
Zhuo Xiu was quiet for a moment, and then said aloud, "When she gets better, I may leave for a while..."
"You want to leave?" Cen Yun's voice was a little surprised.
"I should have left long ago... Maybe it would be better if I didn't see him..." Zhuo Xiuning's tone couldn't be more casual, but Cen Yun didn't feel relieved.
"Xuning..."
"Sister Cen, I have something to hang up on. If you have time, come see Xiaomin." Zhuo Xiuning said with a smile.
"But Xiuning..."
Zhuo Xiuning stopped talking.
Cen Yun knew there was nothing she could do, so she had to say on the phone, "I'll see her tomorrow."
"Yeah." Zhuo Xiuning answered and hung up the phone.
"Brother, am I not getting better?"
The ward in the afternoon was unusually quiet. The afternoon sunlight poured in from the window and enveloped Zhuo Huamin. However, under the sunlight, Zhuo Huamin looked particularly pale, and her sick face was full of world-weariness. look.
Zhuo Xiuning looked at her lifeless face and said in a low voice, "You can't give up so early, especially at a time like this."
Zhuo Huamin laughed sarcastically, she just looked at the blue sky outside the window and said softly, "You don't have to worry about me, I have already asked many doctors when I was diagnosed with chronic Xi_ng nephropathy last year, but I still can't pay more attention. , the diseased kidney will always be necrotic, but there is nothing I can do..."
"So you never told me?" Zhuo Xiuning frowned. Even though their relationship was not as good as that of normal siblings, they were still a family. No matter how she looked at him, he would still care about her.
Zhuo Huamin turned to look at him at this moment, "Mom said you would donate your kidney to me?"
Zhuo Xiuning looked at her and nodded.
"Why?" Zhuo Huamin asked, "Just because I'm your sister?"
"The chance of rejection caused by blood relationship is relatively small." Zhuo Xiuning looked at her and replied, and then added, "So you should be fine."
Zhuo Huamin lowered her eyes for a long time and said suddenly, "Is it good for you if I die?"
She said this in a very soft voice, because the two of them were not the only ones in the ward at this time.
Zhuo Xiuning was only stunned, and then said, "You won't die."
"If I die, will you tell Zeping?" Zhuo Huamin continued to ask, she didn't seem to want to let Zhuo Xiuning go so easily.
"Xiaomin." Zhuo Xiuning looked at her and asked calmly, "What do you want to say?"
"Don't you hate me for taking Zeping away?" Zhuo Huamin stared at Zhuo Xiuning, as if she wanted to see some marks on his face.
"You're not robbing me like this, Zeping is different from me, and what he loves has always been you." Zhuo Xiuning said flatly.
"You lied." Zhuo Huamin's voice was obviously louder.
Zhuo Xiuning couldn't help feeling a little helpless looking at her, "I don't need to lie, why do you always force me like that?"
Zhuo Huamin didn't look at him, just said, "I didn't want to, but now it's different..."
Zhuo Xiuning frowned, he vaguely sensed what Zhuo Huamin meant by "different", but did not speak.
"If you donated your kidney to me, Zeping will definitely be grateful to you. You are different from others. You are always good friends. No matter if I can get better or not, you will always be in between me and Zeping. ." Zhuo Huamin said to herself.
Zhuo Xiuning was stunned. He suddenly realized that the reason why Hua Min was always targeting him was all out of unease. Because of his existence, she always felt insecure.
