The whole honeymoon trip, except for the quiet second day of the Lunar New Year, became an overtime trip for their law firm.
Gu Ping was a very casual person in his life, because it was a honeymoon trip, the room for two people was much larger than the room reserved temporarily by those people. In order to facilitate the work of so many people, it turned into an office indirectly.
At first, his colleagues were very embarrassed, but after two or three days they became familiar with each other, and found that Tong Yan was even more casual. Not only did he give up the room, but he also worked as an assistant for free.
It's just that the subtle communication between two people is really jealous of all kinds.
In the end, even the secretary who had just graduated became jealous, and even said that he couldn't bear it, and he must marry himself out within the year...
Sometimes without her help, Tong Yan took the initiative to flash people and ran to the hotel’s private beach to bask in the sun.
The honeymoon holy land is full of lovers.
She was sitting under the sun umbrella, playing with the fine sand with her bare feet.
Suddenly I remembered that I ran into the sea with excitement that day. I thought I could feel as comfortable as in a swimming pool. I didn't expect that a small wave came over and was filled with sea water. It's really bad taste, astringent and bitter.
Fortunately, there was Gu Ping who fished her up behind her, otherwise she would not know how many sips would be enough. It's a pity that good people are not rewarded. The first thing she got up was to turn around and give him the saltiness in her mouth...
Tong Yan let out a sigh of relief and lay on his back on the sun lounger.
It's really hot, I don't know if he will be too sad in the room.
After all, she was not at ease, and quietly sent him a message: How much heartbeat
Soon, he replied:
97, in the normal range. TK
She was a little relieved: I really feel distressed when you work around the clock and sleeplessly.
If you choose to live an easy life today, Mrs. Gu may face endless work in the future. At that time, I am afraid I will not only feel distressed. TK
She couldn't think of how to reply, so he came to ask her again:
If the lifeguard is not nearby, don't go to the sea by yourself. TK
She lay on her back on the sun lounger and slowly pressed the keyboard: eh. I lie down and read, not going to the sea.
Just sitting on the beach until dusk, she walked back slowly, holding the book that was basically taken out of the room. There are activities organized by the hotel on the beach today. Men and women are walking out of the hall, only a few scattered people are walking backwards.
She walked to the door of a row of elevators and patted the upward button casually.
The door suddenly opened, and many people still came out. Unexpectedly, Gu Ping was also among the crowd. When the two saw each other at the same time, she stepped back two steps and leaned against the wall to wait for him.
"I was wondering if you were over a second ago, and seeing you the next second, is it a good idea?"
He was so rare that he didn't joking, and took the magazine in her hand: "I changed the ticket and will fly back to Beijing tonight."
"Isn't there two more days? Something at home?"
She asked him intuitively.
"It's my grandfather's business. I told you that he had a liver transplant two years ago. After the operation, his creatinine is always high. We have not stopped dialysis. We always pay attention to his kidney problems. Unexpectedly, he started to have blood in the stool last night. Today, the gastroscopy confirmed that it was bleeding from the descending duodenal ulcer, and he is now in the ICU."
He tried his best to use words she could understand.
"Okay, I'll go back and pack things now."
She did not dare to delay, and immediately went back to the room with him.
There is no chance to choose the time for the air ticket that is temporarily changed. The two raced against each other to rush to the airport and almost missed the flight. The seats for two people are the last row, and the seats are difficult to adjust. I didn't just feel uncomfortable in the first half of the journey. After two hours, my waist was sore to my neck.
He speaks very little and eats very little.
Tong Yan had never seen him like this before. In the middle of the night, the people on the plane started to fall asleep. He still flipped through the magazine in his hand, turning the pages at a very fast speed, as if he was reading it, or just for doing something. .
She put her hand on the book page, waited until he looked at herself, and finally frowned and said softly: "This seat is very uncomfortable to sit on. You haven't slept for a few hours in the past two days, will you be overwhelmed?" She untied spontaneously. The seat belt on his body, "While the stewardess didn't see it, lay on my lap and sleep for a while."
There are only the two of them in the last row. Take all the armrests away, and there is no problem lying horizontally.
She knew it was absolutely dangerous to do so, but she only thought of comforting him in this way.
Gu Pingsheng seemed to be aware of her intentions, rolled up the magazine in his hand, and tapped her forehead: "If you suddenly lose weight on an airplane and you don't have a seat belt, you will easily get out of the seat and hit the top of the cabin."
But after finishing talking just now, he turned sideways and lifted all the handrails in this row one by one.
Then grandly, she lay her back on her lap: "Wake me up in ten minutes."
She nodded, put her hand on his body, and embraced him.
He did not speak any more and closed his eyes.
Tong Yan put his forehead on the back of the front seat and watched his sleep quietly. Because of the time lag project, there is no so-called Spring Festival holiday in those countries, and he has really worked a lot these days.
But in two minutes, his breathing has gradually calmed down.
She remembered what he had just said, quietly avoiding his face, and unfastening the seat belt on her waist, as if doing so was practical. If you encounter weightlessness in an airplane, how can you not let Mr. Gu hit the roof of the cabin alone
The plane landed at 5 o'clock in the morning.
They pulled their luggage into the taxi, and Tong Yan immediately reported the name of the hospital. Gu Pingsheng stopped her, but decided to go home first: "Although I am in a more familiar hospital, this time is not suitable for visiting." He reminded her.
Tong Yan was stunned, but felt that he was much more nervous and helpless than him.
It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when they actually arrived at the hospital. Two people walked through the long corridor to the lobby outside the ICU, crowded with people. Ping Fan was embracing her arms and talking to the two doctors at the door. She turned her back to here so she couldn't see them. Instead, the two doctors stopped first, one of them waved at him, and pressed the doorbell with her backhand.
She is so familiar with this place. When the two met for the first time, his mother left here, and her mother was given first aid here.
Tong Yan consciously stayed outside the closed glass door without a seat, and stood in the corner by the elevator.
After a while, Ping Fan came out first. She said that she had been watching outside all night and was too tired to stand. She half held her arm and went downstairs to find a place to rest.
He said he was hungry, and finally sat down and ordered two cups of hot tea.
She held Tong Yan's hand with both hands, and her tone slowly became sad: "Do you know why I studied medicine? I just think people are really easy to get sick. But before studying medicine, I think the hospital can cure any disease. After learning, I feel that life is really fragile. Looking at it, most of them are very difficult to cure."
She didn't feel like a medical student.
But there is also the helplessness of birth, old age, sickness and death, and there is no word to comfort people at all.
Ping Fan sighed with emotion, stopped talking, and blew the tea in the cup aimlessly. After a while, I reluctantly smiled: "You see that I am twelve years older than you. In some places, I am inferior to you. At the beginning, I was with TK in the United States. I heard his classmates say that your grandma was sick so badly. I can’t believe it, you really didn’t say anything, and took care of it for a few months."
She shook her head: "I'm very fragile, but who made him suffer such a serious illness, forcing me to carry it myself."
"Yeah, you are still a child. We should be vulnerable." Ordinary supported his head wearily, alleviating the sleepless sleeplessness. "I asked TK, his physical condition is irreversible, and it will definitely get worse and worse. , If one day you really can’t hold on and break up, what should you do?”
After I finished speaking, I quickly felt that what I said was a little cruel, and quickly reviewed myself: "Don't mind what I just said, the doctors were all silent and used to predict the worst results."
"I don't mind, I am also used to thinking about the worst first, and then everything suddenly becomes clear."
Ping Fan laughed and continued with what I didn't finish just now: "Then, he said what I just said. It should be said that I stole what he said. He said that you are still a child and you should be vulnerable," she deliberately let go In a relaxed tone, "So, if you are fragile someday and can't hold it anymore, no one will blame you. I won't, let alone TK."
She probably guessed that these words ordinary said, alluding to the possibility of them breaking up.
She did not answer this ordinary assumption.
Later, Ordinary changed the subject and began to talk about the elderly’s illness, as well as some of the efforts she had made after they left: “People are always more and more stubborn when they are old, just like children. You have to repeatedly coax and persuade. Slowly she will smile and accept it," she seemed confident, "this time I was hospitalized, my grandfather's first sentence was to let TK come back, so I believe that spring will bloom soon and nothing will be a problem anymore. ."
She nodded in agreement.
Those illnesses and disasters, family rejection, will not be a problem for her at all.
There is a secret that has stayed in her heart from the phone call between Ping Fan and her.
It was her birthday that day. In order to celebrate with her, her mother stayed outside the school gate at around 7 o'clock in the morning, and waited until noon to rest before finally seeing her. But she has exhausted all the vicious and mean language and rejected her mother. That's why something happened later. My mother drank several bottles of liquor in the room alone. After being found, she was sent to the hospital for rescue.
Her birthday was the day when both mothers were rescued at the same time.
In the end, it became his mother's death day.
She was forced to sign and left the hospital that day. Later, when she was told the truth about her mother's rescue, her hands and feet were stiff and numb, and the fear and fear that penetrated into her heart would never be imagined by anyone who had not personally experienced it.
So, she understood all his feelings.
As far as she is concerned, how important Gu Ping's life is, I am afraid that even he himself cannot imagine.
She was always looking at her phone with a little restlessness.
Even though he knew that Gu Ping was only in the ICU, he was always uneasy. Gu Pingfan stayed all night, except that his face was not very good, there was no difference.
According to her words, people who want to be doctors must have a superhuman personality, otherwise they will be spinning for thirty-six hours at every turn. How can it be possible to persevere? "TK used to be in very good health," Gu Pingfan took out the card and handed it to the waiter in response to the bill in his hand. "In order to be a qualified surgeon, he always pays attention to physical exercise, and also learns how to cook vegetables with me... "
"He said," Tong Yan bowed his head and tied the scarf. "He is left-handed like me. He said that in order to practice the sensitivity of his right hand, he would cut 20 potatoes into shreds every day, so that he could use both hands during surgery. Work at the same time."
She remembers clearly the shock of seeing the potato shreds that Gu had cut out for the first time in her life.
Such neat sword skills are definitely hard work.
"Yes," Ping Fan smiled with regret, "He worked so hard, but he still didn't have the opportunity to be a good doctor. I used to be particularly jealous that he could live abroad. It was eight years ago, and it was not as good as it is now. It's common. After I grew up slowly, after learning about my little aunt's things, I felt that he was particularly pitiful. Then there were so many things, one after another, without stopping."
Ordinary results for the waiter's list, scribbled signing, and also ended the conversation.
When the two returned to the hospital, Gu Pingsheng had already come out of the ICU and was communicating with the elders about his grandfather's situation. When Tong Yan walked over, he stopped slightly and told her that he was going to guard here and let her go home to rest first.
Although she was a little worried about his body, she didn't say much.
After arriving home, Tong Yan took the sheets dried before the vacation from the balcony, and cleaned the bedroom and bathroom from the inside out. Yehang all night, the whole day with fear, coupled with high-intensity labor, finally exhausted all her energy, and hurriedly took a shower and went to bed.
The curtains in the bedroom are custom-made, as long as the curtains are closed, no light source can be seen, which is very suitable for deep sleep.
But because of too many things pressed in my heart, I couldn't sleep well after all.
I don’t know how long she woke up from her dream suddenly, because of the layered dreams, she couldn’t tell whether she was at school, at home, or still on the island on vacation...
In the end, the unique taste of home on the duvet made her gradually get rid of her trance.
I don't know what time it is, and I'm still empty around.
Her throat was a little dry, and she moved her arms lazily, wanting to get up and pour a glass of water.
But just now I stretched out my arm, before I sat up, I saw the figure beside the bed. He is back? Tong Yan reached out to touch the bedside table and wanted to turn on the light. Just now he touched the light switch and he was stunned.
When he opened his eyes just now, he hadn't adjusted to the darkness of the room. Looking at it now, he found that he was leaning against the edge of the bed in a squatting position, carefully and slowly taking something out of his pocket.
She seemed afraid to wake her up.
He only heard some muffled, squeaking noises, like medicine pellets slipping through a plastic bottle.
Tong Yan didn't dare to move any more, put his hand on the edge of the bedside table and stared at him in the dark. He put his hand on his mouth, swallowed the medicine directly, and then continued to lean against the bed in that distressing posture for a long time.
I don't know how long it has been.
He finally leaned over and sat on the carpet along the side of the bed.
In the previous posture, Tong Yan could still judge whether he was ill at any time, but now she was sitting silently, she really panicked, and soon turned on the light and sat up from the bed.
"Why did you wake up suddenly?" He quickly got up and leaned over, "I woke you up?"
The voice was in his ears, a little comforting, and hoarse and tired that he didn't know himself.
She rubbed her eyes and smiled softly: "I had a nightmare just now and I was frightened awake." Carefully suppressing her tears, her eyes were completely red when she put her hands down, "You just came back?"
He hummed and touched her face.
