The author has something to say: Tomorrow we will have a reunion!
[98]
Chi Qiu was barefoot, ignoring the pain in his body, and persistently groped the wall, trying to find a light switch.
Lu Ming sensed something was wrong, and stepped forward to stop Chi Qiu's bewildered behavior: "Chi Qiu!"
Chi Qiu seemed anxious and flustered, and helplessly explained to Lu Ming: "It's too dark without the lights on, so I can't see. I only have vision in one eye, and it's too dark, so I can't see."
In an instant, Lu Ming guessed the worst possibility.
Chi Qiu in front of him became more and more anxious, even his voice was stained with cowardly crying, he had to ask: "Lu Ming, can you turn on the light for me?"
Since the acquaintance, Lu Ming has never seen such a timid Chi Qiu. He turned Chi Qiu to face him. As his Adam's apple moved slightly, he tentatively waved his hand vigorously in front of Chi Qiu.
Chi Qiu's eyes remained motionless.
Lu Ming's heart was as dead silent as he froze in place. But soon, amidst Chi Qiu's trembling, he calmed himself down for the first time.
Lu Ming held Chi Qiu's shoulder and comforted him, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that the light is broken."
Chi Qiu's eyes turned red in disbelief.
"It's true! Chi Qiu, the light in this ward is broken. The nurse said that ours is the only one that is broken, but there are no other vacant single wards. Can you bear with it? Someone will come to fix it tomorrow."
Chi Qiu's mind is still confused, now is the best time to lie. With Lu Ming's confirmation, he relaxed a little bit from his frightened expression, and asked half-believingly, "It's... is it midnight?"
"Yes." Lu Ming replied straight away, he picked up Chi Qiuheng, and Chi Qiu was so scared that Chi Qiu unconsciously hugged his neck.
After Chi Qiu realized it, he immediately let go of his hand.
In order not to fall, Chi Qiu tightened Lu Ming's coat and shrugged his shoulders. He was safely put on the hospital bed by Lu Ming, and then he heard two sounds of drawing paper, and Lu Ming wiped his feet with a wet towel.
The cold touch rubbed against Chi Qiu's skin, and he didn't dare to move. Still in shock, he asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Lu Ming said with a good temper: "You fell down the stairs, Aunt Su was frightened and called me to send you to the hospital."
Chi Qiu closed his mouth, thinking of Lin Yuming's behavior towards him, his mood was indescribable. He lowered his eyes, thinking to himself, let Lu Ming see a joke. But forget it, his life has long been messed up by others, what jokes can't be seen by others
Chi Qiu turned his head away numbly, and said in a low voice, "Can you use your mobile phone to illuminate it? It's too dark, and I'm not used to it." At the end, he added, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
Regarding Chi Qiu's alienation, Lu Ming consciously withdrew his hand: "Sorry, I came to the hospital in a hurry, and I left my phone in the car."
"Then can you open the curtains for me?" The room was extremely dark, and Chi Qiu's head was still in a daze, very tired, and even thinking was too strenuous.
For a while, he couldn't tell what was wrong, and reconfirmed with Lu Ming foolishly: "Is the light really broken?"
"It's broken." Lu Ming lied one after another and didn't write a draft. He tucked the quilt for Chi Qiu, tidied his messy hair, and replied coherently, "The curtains have been drawn, but it seems to be raining. The dark clouds covered the moon. covered."
Chi Qiu pushed his hand away with difficulty, and asked incomprehensibly, "Why can you see clearly?"
"My eyesight is better at night." Lu Ming was afraid of revealing himself, so he changed the subject, "Are you hungry?"
Chi Qiu shook his head, dragging the wound, crying in pain.
Lu Ming gently sucked away Chi Qiu's tears with a tissue. He looked into Chi Qiu's dim eyes, clenched his fists, and tried to calm down his tone: "Drink some water first, your throat is a little hoarse."
This time Chi Qiu didn't refuse.
Lu Ming gently touched the straw to his lips, and as before, Lu Ming held his hand and let him hold the water glass. Chi Qiu was so thirsty that he drank a glass of water before giving up.
Lu Ming took his empty water glass, hesitated again and again, and planned to ask the doctor for clarification: "I have something to do, you stay here alone for a while."
"..."
"What's wrong?"
Chi Qiu asked, "When will Aunt Su come over?"
Lu Ming looked at the time on his watch: "It will probably take a while."
Chi Qiu didn't say anything on the surface, but he became nervous in his heart. It has been a long time since he faced such a long night alone when he was awake, even if he left a small lamp for him...
He was a little afraid of Lu Ming's leaving, so he pursed his lips tightly and held back his mouth.
Lu Ming saw his troubles, and generously held his hand again, giving him a reassurance: "I won't leave, I will deal with other things later." The most urgent thing is to appease Good for Chi Qiu's uneasy mood.
Chi Qiu frowned awkwardly, as if he didn't appreciate it: "Thank you for sending me to the hospital. After Aunt Su comes, you can go back."
Lu Ming didn't know if this was an improvement, because Chi Qiu didn't let him go now, so he deliberately said: "But Aunt Su looks really tired, you have to give her time to rest. Otherwise, it doesn't seem too Comply with labor law."
"..."
How could Chi Qiu be in the mood to joke with Lu Ming? He frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
Lu Ming also accepted it as soon as he saw it: "Chi Qiu, take good care of your wounds. We won't talk about anything these days." He talked more, and he was very good at coaxing people. Almost every word he said followed Chi Qiu's words. Said, to please Chi Qiu.
This feeling made Chi Qiu feel like he was 15 years old again. It was the same with Lu Ming at that time. Facing himself who ignored him, he kept talking about various interesting topics, trying hard to make him smile.
But the 27-year-old Lu Ming probably had bad luck, and the world of adults doesn't have much luck at all. Now Chi Qiu felt too much grievance in his heart, he couldn't laugh at all, and he didn't accept Lu Ming's tricks at all.
Seeing this, Lu Ming crossed his hands and squeezed, and said actively: "I saved a copy of the surveillance video of Lin Yuming beating you, just in case."
Sure enough, Chi Qiu's expression became a little richer, but on his bruised face, he looked a little pitiful.
Lu Ming didn't know whether Chi Qiu would blame him for being nosy, because according to what Aunt Su said just now, with Chi Qiu's personality, he should forgive Lin Yuming and Chi Xia for what they did.
However, no matter what, Lu Ming will respect Chi Qiu's decision.
Regarding Lin Yuming, Lu Ming thinks it is not too late to settle accounts after autumn. Chi Qiu could not care about the harm he caused Chi Qiu, but Lu Ming couldn't.
What Lu Ming didn't expect was that Chi Qiu quickly thanked him again.
"I remember that Chi Xia has the authority to manage the surveillance at home. According to her personality, it is estimated that this video has been erased now. Lu Ming, you really helped me a lot, thank you."
What Chi Qiu said didn't sound like he intended to let Lin Yuming go.
And Lu Ming was thanked several times in a row, and kept saying: "You don't need to thank me, Chi Qiu, I'm very glad that I can do these things for you."
Chi Qiu's head hurts intermittently, so he simply didn't answer.
It may be that Chi Qiu is really stressed and tired recently. In the completely dark world, listening to Lu Ming's low tone, he inadvertently felt inexplicable peace of mind.
He was so tired that he fell asleep again not long after. This time Chi Qiu didn't sleep deeply, if Lu Ming called him, he could still vaguely agree.
Lu Ming really didn't expect that the trivia he and Chi Qiu talked about would be regarded as a lullaby. He smiled helplessly, and taking advantage of Chi Qiu's falling asleep, he tiptoed out of the ward and went to the doctor's.
The door of the ward opened and closed with a slight sound, but Chi Qiu woke up.
Perhaps it was because he had already slept through it today, and he didn't sleep well, and a little movement could wake him up.
At this time, a nurse pushed the door in and said, "It's time to put on an IV."
Chi Qiu couldn't see where the door was, so he followed the prestige. But the strange thing is that he couldn't even see the light outside the door. He stared blankly ahead, and had deep doubts about the statement that "the light is broken".
Knowing that Chi Qiu is blind, the nurse asked Chi Qiu softly and patiently: "Do you feel better?"
Hearing the sound, Chi Qiu turned his head to the direction where the nurse was standing, and asked a question foolishly: "Excuse me... is the power outage in the hospital?"
The nurse thought he was joking, and hung the bottle on the fixed frame next to the hospital bed while padding her feet, and said, "How could there be a power outage in the hospital? The light is on well."
As soon as the words finished, the nurse lowered her head, and saw Chi Qiu's dazed expression and tears.
the other side.
Lu Ming told the doctor about Chi Qiu's situation in detail.
The doctor flipped through Chi Qiu's medical records and thought, "Which family member of the patient are you?"
"I'm his mate."
After hearing this, the doctor said reassuringly: "Don't worry, he was hit on the head and fell from upstairs. It is very likely that the impact on the head caused temporary blindness symptoms."
Lu Ming grasped the word "temporary" and hurriedly asked, "Does it mean that it can be recovered?"
"If it's really transient blindness, it's basically recoverable."
"How long will it take to recover?"
"Not sure, and not necessarily transient."
Lu Ming swallowed, his throat was dry: "What do you mean?"
The doctor pushed Chi Qiu's case back to Lu Ming: "Actually, it's useless to talk about it now. You should make an appointment for an examination as soon as possible. After the examination results come out, we'll talk about it."
Lu Ming frowned deeply and thanked the doctor.
After coming out of the consulting room, Lu Ming sat on the chair in the aisle for a while, he didn't know how to tell Chi Qiu about this unknown matter.
He wiped his face and went to the bathroom to splash two splashes of cold water. After trying to keep my mind clear, I walked back to the ward quickly.
In the ward with the lights on, came the anxious voice of the nurse.
Chi Qiu just huddled in a corner of the ward, resisting the nurse's care. He curled himself up into a ball, buried his head and hugged his knees, as if he had found a place to rely on in the dark night, hiding himself in despair.
Something suddenly collapsed in Lu Ming's heart, and his whole body was drained of strength.
He gritted his teeth and stepped forward a few steps. Seeing him coming, the nurse said helplessly, "I don't know what's wrong with him, it just happened all of a sudden. He just sat there motionless, and he didn't listen to any persuasion, and the needle couldn't be given." She put away the sling Bottle, "I'll come over later, you persuade him first."
Lu Ming nodded, the soles of his feet were numb, and he walked forward and slowly squatted down on one knee.
"Chi Qiu." He called him, "It's me."
Chi Qiu hugged his knee tightly, without looking up.
