Chapter 39

The door of the operating room opened and closed, doctors and nurses kept coming in and out, and the bright red flowers on the white clothes hurt He Cheng's eyes.

He sat on the bench in the corridor, staring at the white as snow wall for a long time, his eyes moved down and landed on the ground.

There was a drop of blood on the ground, which was stained by people stepping on it.

Xu Ran has been pushed into the operating room for three hours, and there is still no news.

The corridor was filled with the smell of blood mixed with disinfectant, constantly irritating He Cheng's nasal cavity.

He doesn't like the smell, but he just sat here for three hours.

What hit Xu Ran was a large truck, which was delivering goods in the middle of the night, and that corner was their only way to pass every night. The street lamp was broken the day before yesterday, and the street reported for repairs, but the work has not started yet.

Who would have thought that someone crossing the road in the middle of the night would not hide when they heard the sound of wheels.

He Cheng moved his shoulders. His body was extremely stiff, his fingers were entangled, and his joints were so tight that they turned white.

From the time when the car lights came on to when Xu Ran fell down, he could see the whole process clearly.

I can't forget the blood red reflected in my eyes.

He tugged at the neckline, loosened the tie that was tightening around his throat, and let out a breath.

After living for twenty-eight years, he has already seen life and death. The once-bankrupt rival jumped off the roof of his company. He Jingtang pointed to the corpse covered in a white cloth and said, this is what happens to losers.

He was fourteen years old that year, and the red spots on the white cloth became a nightmare that haunted him for more than half a year.

Close your eyes, the scene of that year emerges in front of your eyes.

The noisy crowd, the click of the camera shutter, and the siren blared in the distance, tore a hole in the deep memory, revealing the dark inside. He stepped through the opening and saw a ray of light.

Xu Ran stood there in the light, with his back to him. Xu Ran didn't use crutches, his back was very straight, and his gentle outline reminded He Cheng of the past when nothing had time to happen.

He Cheng wanted to call him, but couldn't make a sound. Xu Ran seemed to have noticed it, and turned around on his own initiative.

He smiled.

He Cheng woke up suddenly.

He was still sitting in the corridor of the hospital, his forehead resting on his hands, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

He saw the light in Xu Ran's eyes suddenly brighten and then fade away.

Just before dawn, Liu Ming got the news from nowhere and arrived, bringing a dewy look with him. He Cheng glanced at him, then looked away again.

Liu Ming asked, "What's going on?"

He Cheng ignored it.

Liu Ming asked the nurse directly, but the nurse only said, "It's difficult."

It's hard to save them.

He Cheng's body trembled violently.

calm. He said to himself silently in his heart, don't lose your sense of proportion over such a trivial matter.

trifle

This is a human life.

It is a terrifying thing to watch someone you are familiar with fall down in front of you. At that moment, it seems that the whole world freezes, the wind has no breath, and only the tragic scene under the moonlight is left. He Cheng had to admit that at that moment, he panicked.

He remembered running and squatting down in front of Xu Ran, but was horrified to find that his eyes were dull. At that time, Xu Ran was still conscious, coughing continuously, trying to raise his hand but couldn't.

He Cheng grabbed his hand. Wet, thin and cold.

Xu Ran put a small object into his palm.

In the hospital, He Cheng spread out his palms and saw that damned tie clip, the black gemstone was covered with blood and became dull and dull.

He Cheng suddenly felt flustered and anxious. He got up and went to the bathroom, and kept rinsing the tie clip in front of the sink. He watched the blood flow down from his fingers and merged into a thin stream of water in the clean white sink. into the sewer.

No matter how you wash it, the original beauty can't be restored to its original appearance, only the blood keeps flowing, as if it will never be washed away.

Just like Xu Ran who fell on the ground, He Cheng didn't know where so much blood came from that slender body, it kept flowing out from nose and mouth, and he couldn't stop it.

He Cheng clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the pool. The edge of the tie clip cut a hole in his palm. It was not deep, but it hurt him a lot.

Back in the corridor, he saw Liu Ming talking to a couple over fifty years old.

He Cheng paused, but finally walked over.

Xu's parents almost fainted when they received the news of their son's accident. They booked the plane immediately and rushed over all night without sleep.

He Cheng heard Liu Ming introduce Xu's father and Xu's mother, "That's Xu Ran's friend, He Cheng."

friend.

It was Liu Ming's kindness that did not say that "the entangled ex-boyfriend who caused Xu Ran's car accident" was Liu Ming's kindness. He Cheng raised the corner of his mouth and nodded stiffly, noticing that Xu's father's eyes stopped on him for a few seconds.

This was the first time He Cheng met Xu Ran's family. Xu's father was about the same age as his father, but he looked much older. The hand holding his wife was trembling, but his face was very firm.

He asked Liu Ming, "How is my son now?"

Liu Ming looked at He Cheng, He Cheng closed his eyes, tried hard to erase the figure of the smiling person in front of him, and said, "Still in rescue."

He had no words of comfort to say. Even against two desperate elders.

The four of them waited in the corridor, during which Liu Ming made a few phone calls, sounding like he was arranging things. These should be done by He Cheng, He Cheng knew that he should shoulder the burden now, but his feet felt a little weak for some reason.

Especially seeing father Xu's deep gaze, a strange feeling flashed in He Cheng's heart.

Another hour later, the doctor came out and issued a critical illness notice.

Xu's mother was crying so hard that she almost passed out, Liu Ming hurriedly stepped forward to support her. Xu's father stared blankly at the notice handed to him, unable to write for a long time.

The doctor sighed. He understands the feelings of the family members, but time waits for no one.

After being dazed for a while, Xu's father actually looked at He Cheng.

He Cheng was taken aback by him. From those eyes that were very similar to Xu Ran's, he could see the meaning of the question.

He opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Father Xu turned around again, biting a toothpick and signed his name.

"..."

The operation took a total of six hours.

During the two critical illness notifications, Xu's mother had cried so much that she had no more tears, and fell into her husband's arms in a daze. Liu Ming called home to appease Dong Ziqi, but He Cheng was like an outsider, unable to do anything or get in the way.

Finally, before noon, the doctor appeared again and announced that the operation was successful.

Xu Ran saved his life.

But no one felt happy, more, it was the luck of the rest of the life after the catastrophe.

After being transferred from the operating room to the ICU, Xu Ran's body was covered with tubes, his head was covered with bandages, and only his eyes were exposed. The eyes that were originally clear are now closed, as if he is not breathing at ease, only the slight rise and fall of his chest proves that he is still alive.

Xu's parents wanted to wait in the hospital, but Liu Ming stopped them.

"ICU can't visit, you should go to rest first, Xu Ran needs to be taken care of when he is transferred to the general ward, you have to make sure you don't fall down first."

After sending the two elders to a hotel near the hospital to rest, Liu Ming turned back and looked at He Cheng coldly.

"What are you still doing here?"

He Cheng frowned at him. This is the question he wants to ask.

Liu Ming shook his head, "I only know that Xu Ran has a deep affection for you, but it's better for you to just push him into hell."

"I?"

He Cheng finally spoke the first word. hoarse voice.

"Who are you? Could it be me?"

That's right, if it wasn't you, He Cheng, who else could it be

He Cheng squeezed the tie clip tightly in his palm. Every word that I said to Xu Ran at three o'clock in the morning, and every expression on Xu Ran's face, are clearly vivid in my memory.

I could have gone after him. He Cheng thought that even if he ran two steps, I could catch up with him, but I didn't.

The moment the car drove over, Xu Ran didn't hide. It's not that I can't hide, it's that I don't want to hide.

When looking back at him, what was Xu Ran thinking

He Cheng didn't know. He doesn't want to know.

Xu Ran was in a coma for three days.

He Cheng has been staying in the hospital for the past three days. Liu Ming took care of Xu's parents and ignored him at all. He stayed in the car at night, and when he couldn't fall asleep, he looked at the bright moonlight in the sky.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he would see Xu Ran smiling at him, the blood-stained smile, which made him unable to sleep.

Bai Jinming called to ask about the situation. He didn't know what happened to Xu Ran.

He Cheng didn't remember the tone he used to tell him about this matter, he only knew that after he finished speaking, Bai Jinming was silent for a long time, and said, "He Cheng, you are committing a crime."

Three days later, Xu Ran's condition stabilized and he was transferred to the general ward. He Cheng paid some money to put him in a single room, the ward at the end of the corridor, with the best conditions and the quietest.

But this can't make Xu Ran wake up early.

Xu's parents got through the initial panic and began to accompany their son. Xu's mother stayed in front of the hospital bed all day talking to Xu Ran, Xu's father was silent most of the time, only occasionally going out of the hospital to smoke a cigarette.

At dawn, He Cheng heard the sound of knocking on the window while he was half asleep, and suddenly woke up, and saw Xu's father standing outside the car.

When He Cheng came down, Father Xu swung his fist and slapped him hard on the face.

He Cheng didn't hide.

"I know you." Father Xu's voice was so calm that it made people panic, "You are Xu Ran's lover. Tell me, why did he get hurt?"

He followed Xu's father to the ward, Xu's mother only glanced at him, and did not respond to the wound on the corner of his mouth.

Some of the tubes on Xu Ran's body were removed, but it was still shocking to watch. He Cheng went up and shook his hand, cold and lifeless.

"He will wake up." I don't know who he is saying to.

It really made him sure, Xu Ran woke up that night.

It was He Cheng who discovered it first.

He stared blankly at the person with open eyes on the bed for a few seconds, and suddenly realized what had happened.

"Xu Ran, are you awake?"

Xu Ran stared at him blankly, but did not respond.

He Cheng's head was in a mess, and he raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, Xu Ran's eyes moved accordingly. Fortunately, not blind.

"Xu Ran, do you remember who I am?"

no response.

There was the sound of a water glass falling to the ground at the door.

He Cheng and Xu Ran looked out at the same time, Xu Ran opened his mouth, and silently called out to Xu's mother outside the door, Mom.

He Cheng's heart sank hard.

Xu's father also rushed back, seeing him, Xu Ran's eyes flashed a tiny light.

But Xu Ran didn't respond when he looked at He Cheng.

say something. He Cheng shouted silently in his heart, you call my name.

Even if it is disgust or fear, he can accept it.

But no.

The eyes that had been filled with ten years of love were empty. After a car accident, there was nothing left.
