"Yes." Huo Mian answered truthfully.
"Are you afraid?" Qin Chu's voice suddenly became gentle, as if he was coaxing a child.
"How could it be? I went to medical school and am no longer interested in corpses. But when I think of grandma lying inside, I will inevitably feel sad."
"Birth, aging, sickness and death are the laws of nature. None of us can change them. You can be more liberal."
"I know."
After Huo Mian said that, she asked additionally, "Why are you still up so late?"
"I just came back from a business trip."
"so late?"
"kindness."
"Then you must be tired. Go to bed early." Huo Mian said softly.
Unexpectedly, Qin Chu had no intention of taking a rest and replied, "Just keep the phone on, I'll be with you."
Perhaps he was afraid that Huo Mian would refuse, so Qin Chu added, "I will keep vigil with you like this."
Facing Qin Chu's kindness, Huo Mian really had no reason to refuse. She also knew deeply what his temper was.
I don't know if it's because I stayed up late or something, but I just feel my eyes are slightly sore...
"good."
After a long silence, Huo Mian only replied with this word. Then she put down her phone, and the page showed that the call was still continuing.
It's just that the two of them stopped talking...
This kind of companionship is undoubtedly the most special. Although it has no real meaning, Huo Mian feels that she is no longer alone on this sad night...
Huo Mian silently burned paper for her deceased grandma without any sleepiness until dawn.
At half past five in the morning, it was just dawn.
Huo Siqian walked over wearing a black shirt and black trousers, holding an old LV scarf in his hand.
Without waiting for Huo Mian to say anything, he directly put it on her body...
"I do not need."
"Put it on, it's a relic from grandma's lifetime, unless you dislike it."
After hearing what Huo Siqian said, Huo Mian was too embarrassed to refuse, otherwise it would be like she disliked grandma's things.
Huo Siqian looked Huo Mian up and down and smiled, "Sister Xiaomian, this dress is worth a lot of money."
"You're wrong, it's a high imitation."
"Oh, really? I said that Sister Xiaomian's salary as a nurse shouldn't be that high. But then again, your job makes little money and is tiring. Have you ever thought about it, Huo's can help me when you come back? ?”
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in Huo."
Huo Mian decisively refused...
Huo Siqian seemed to have expected Huo Mian to say this, so he just smiled and said, "Heh, do you have a grudge against Qian?"
"No, I have a grudge against you."
Huo Siqian spread his hands very innocently, "Sister Xiaomian, I have always been very friendly to you, you shouldn't be like that to me."
Huo Mian didn't say anything. At this time, an Onmyoji who had been found for the burial came over and said, "It's time for the wake, you go and sort it out first. We will leave the city for burial starting at seven o'clock."
After hearing this, Huo Mian slowly stood up, but found that her knees were too numb and she collapsed on the ground as soon as she stood up.
Huo Siqian subconsciously went to help him, but she dodged him and she fell to the ground.
"Why do you have to...? I can't eat you." Huo Siqian was helpless.
Huo Mian didn't say anything, but stood up slowly while holding on to an iron pole of the memorial shed, and then walked towards the rest area nearby.
Seeing Huo Mian being so stubborn, Huo Siqian smiled even deeper...
Huo Mian found a quiet place and just sat down, when she suddenly realized that her phone seemed to be on.
He should still be on the phone with Qin Chu, so... did he hear the conversation between him and Huo Siqian just now
I took out my phone and took a look. Sure enough, the call was still going on...
She didn't know if Qin Chu was asleep, so she carefully took it to the phone and asked, "Qin Chu, are you asleep?"
