After a night of torment, Xiang Wan felt a little numb after experiencing all the hardships.
When she sent the message, she didn't expect Bai Muchuan to reply.
After all, it was too early at this point in time.
Unexpectedly, Bai Muchuan would reply in seconds.
"Get up. I'll meet with some finalized team members today to discuss specific matters. It should be a little busy. What's the matter, Xiao Xiangwan?"
The question at the end indicated that he had already discovered what was wrong with her.
It was less than seven o'clock in the morning. According to Xiang Wan's previous habits, he must still be sleeping in. Even if he woke up, he would not send messages to him.
Looking at the familiar and warm text, Xiang Wan rubbed the phone screen, took a breath, and found that his nose was a bit blocked.
"Can you go back to Jincheng?" She mustered up the courage to ask.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to..." Bai Muchuan quickly replied.
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for her to speak, he immediately followed up with a warning, "What happened?"
What's the matter? something happened.
But her matter or his matter, which is more important
The establishment of a national first-level serious crime agency is more important than the love of children... His matter seems to be a major event, right
Xiang Wan leaned her head against the wall, feeling restless for a long time, holding her phone to her chest for a long while before she slowly sent him a message.
"It's nothing, I just miss you."
"I miss you too. Three days, like the past three years." Bai Muchuan showed a smiling expression, "So, Xiao Xiangwan, I am eagerly looking forward to your coming..."
This emphatic enthusiasm almost drenched Xiang Wan's heart.
On the one hand is the relative who raised her, and on the other is her boyfriend who has only known each other for more than three months...
She knew she had no choice, "I sent you a message just to talk about this. Well, my mother suddenly fell ill, and I can't come for a while..."
Bai Muchuan: "Are you sick? Is it serious?"
Xiang Wan hesitated, "Fortunately, I'm in the hospital. The doctor said there's nothing serious..."
She didn't want to make the situation too serious, and Bai Muchuan really didn't think too much about it. After all, it's not normal for a person of this age to be sick.
He asked, "Will it be too hard for you to take care of your mother?"
Xiang Wan: "It's okay."
Bai Muchuan: "Everything is fine. You are not an honest boy. Tell me, is there anything I can use?"
Xiang Wan: "...No."
Bai Muchuan: "Boyfriends are for use, don't be polite."
Xiang Wan: "Really not."
This time, after about ten seconds, Bai Muchuan asked again: "Where's the money?"
"..."
Men and women who have just fallen in love will carefully maintain their image in the other party's mind. Similarly, self-esteem is also stronger than consciousness, and they will be more sensitive when it comes to money. But Bai Muchuan thought that Xiang Wan must have encountered some kind of problem when he sent him a message early in the morning...
So if her mother's condition was not too serious, what would be the biggest problem
Therefore, the question of money was only asked after he thought about it.
Xiang Wan felt a little pity in his heart, and he couldn't help being hit.
It seems that she looks like she is short of money
Or I'm too hard-working, too disappointing...
Xiang Wan rubbed his face and wiped his red eyes, "I don't need it for now, I will ask you for help if necessary."
Swish! A WeChat transfer came over.
No more, no less, ten thousand yuan!
Remarks: Take care of yourself and our mother.
Xiang Wan's eyes suddenly became hot. After holding back the tears all night, they suddenly fell like that.
These days, Bai Muchuan has never sent her a whole number of red envelopes. They are all auspicious numbers that symbolize beauty. auspicious.
In fact, he was carefully maintaining her self-esteem.
Xiang Wan understood, therefore, he understood the value of this man even more.
He is someone she needs to cherish. she thinks.
Looking at the big red envelope worth 10,000 yuan, Xiang Wan thought about his aunt's words of life philosophy, and knew that Bai Muchuan was the kind of man who was willing to spend money for her...
So, sitting quietly in the dead morning of the hospital, her eyes were red and her heart was beating wildly.
"Thank you Mr. Xiaobai for your reward."
"Come on! What's mine is yours. We're a family, so don't be polite."
"...Okay. Just one question. If my family asks what you're up to, can I be honest?"
Bai Muchuan pondered for a while, and replied: "Let's keep it a secret first."
Xiang Wan sniffed sensiblely, "Oh, I see, I won't say anything."
Xiang Wan also knew very little about serious case No. 1.
But she knows some rules of confidentiality. One is that she dare not speak out casually, and must first ask for his consent. The second is that even if she tells my aunt the truth, she will be regarded as a liar by her aunt. Because this institution has not been formally established, it cannot be found on any browser.
"Well... I have nothing to do. Don't bother you, go ahead."
Xiang Wan touched the keys on the phone keyboard like flying, and Bai Muchuan also instructed him carefully.
"Remember to eat breakfast. If my Xiao Xiangwan loses weight from hunger, I will take care of you."
"I see, you too..."
"I'm eating."
"So early?"
"Yeah. I drew up a plan last night, and that's it when I'm done. I'll come out to have some food by the way."
So he didn't sleep all night? Xiang Wan was suddenly a little thankful that she didn't tell him the truth.
Otherwise, how should he choose
Don't you make it difficult for him
Xiang Wan lowered her head and typed slowly: "Mr. Xiaobai, take care of yourself."
Bai Muchuan: "Received! I promise to complete the task, please rest assured the leader."
poor! Still like teasing her so much!
Looking at the relaxed Bai Muchuan, Xiang Wan felt a ray of light in his heavy heart, and curved his lips in a rare way.
"Okay, waiting for your triumphant return."
After sending the last message, Xiang Wan packed up her phone, slowly closed her eyes, and listened to the swishing sound of the cleaning lady in the corridor, her thoughts were gradually gnawed by anxiety.
…
Xiang Wan's spirit was in a weird state of excitement.
Flustered, anxious, uncomfortable, but unable to really fall asleep.
When Cheng Zheng came over, he deliberately slowed down his steps, but Xiang Wan still heard it.
She opened her eyes sensitively, and saw his worried gaze.
"Are... are you okay?" Standing in front of her, Cheng Zheng pointed to the hospital ward, "Why don't you go inside and find a place to rest?"
Xiang Wan shook his head, "I can't sleep."
She didn't ask him why he knew, why he came.
At this time, she didn't even have the energy to say a word.
Cheng Zheng looked at her disheveled face, frowned lightly, sat down beside her, and handed her a cup of hot soybean milk. He was sitting upright, and his face was as cold as ever, "Auntie is currently in the ICU, and you can't help if you stay in the hospital." Going to work. Go back and rest! There are doctors and nurses here who will take good care of her."
"I'm going to wait for her to wake up and see her get better."
It was not the first day Cheng Zheng knew about her stubbornness.
Looking at his small face that seemed to have lost weight overnight, he fell silent.
"I asked just now. Auntie's operation was successful. All the intracranial congestion was cleared. The CT examination results showed that the blood vessels in the brain and neck were normal. The current routine examination indicators, blood pressure, heart rate, etc. are all normal..."
"Then why hasn't she woke up yet?" Xiang Wan looked at him anxiously.
Her eyes were red, full of anticipation, and fear.
Every family member of a patient has such an expression when they see the doctor.
Cheng Zheng: "This... recovery requires a process."
Xiang Wan's tone was a little anxious, "Then when will you wake up?"
"It varies from person to person." Cheng Zheng really wanted to say something pleasant to comfort her. But he is an academic by nature, so he can't say those sweet things, so, after a moment of hesitation, he gave her the worst result, "Some people will wake up soon. There are also some people who won't wake up for a lifetime—"
Xiang Wan's eyes widened suddenly.
When the doctor came out of the operating room and told her that the mobile phone was a success, she had already automatically thought about her condition in a better direction.
She even thought that her mother would wake up today after a night of rest and a good sleep.
I never thought that there would be such serious consequences...
"You don't have to be too nervous." Cheng Zheng immediately comforted her when he saw that her expression was not very good, "I'm talking about the worst outcome, which usually won't happen."
Xiang Wan: "..."
The heart that has been suspended, how can it come down.
Cheng Zheng thought about it: "But when Auntie wakes up, you have to persuade her more in the future, keep a calm mind, and try not to be overjoyed or sad. This is easy to be stimulated, and her blood pressure is high..."
Xiang Wan raised her eyebrows slowly, "Even you know that she has high blood pressure? Why don't I know?"
Cheng Zheng lowered his brows slightly: "I found out when I took her for an examination last time."
Xiang Wan took a breath, "Why didn't anyone tell me?"
Cheng Zheng: "Didn't I tell you? Oh, that's why Auntie didn't let me tell you. In fact, many elderly people will have high blood pressure..."
With a hmm, Xiang Wan fell silent.
It's no one's fault but her own.
Stopping there, she glanced at Cheng Zheng and changed the subject.
"Thank you for visiting my mother. Come back, Cheng Dui..."
As soon as he sat down, she pushed him away.
Cheng Zheng's eyes were inexplicably clouded.
"Today is Saturday, I have nothing to do, let's sit here for a while. I know some people in the hospital, maybe it will be useful."
"Oh. Then... thank you."
"We are friends. If you say more, you will become unfamiliar."
It's as if... It's not unfamiliar at all.
Xiang Wan smiled, feeling that at this moment, she didn't even have the strength to refuse...
Unable to chat with Cheng Zheng, she quietly closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair, like a sculpture that had been drained of strength.
She thought that if he was bored, he would leave naturally.
However, Cheng Zheng was born to be the kind of man who can endure loneliness.
He didn't bother her, he didn't move, just stayed by his side silently like that.

Well, I'm fighting for the third watch! Little sisters, if you have a vote, vote for Ergeng. It's the end of the month and it's going to be cleared.
In addition, everyone grows up in a different environment, has different views, and has a very different view on things. Let's discuss it reasonably, and seek common ground while reserving differences...
