It was evening when I received the call from the hospital. Ting Shuang was sitting in a small shop on the street, eating two random bites while typing and chatting with Aunt Wang, whom I saw last time in Hanover. She is Zhu Ao's secretary and one of the first old employees to enter roborun. Ting Shuang feels that she must know something.
But when he asked about the situation in the company after his father's accident, she only said that everything was normal, the same as before.
When Ting Shuang was thinking about whether to mention the ad hoc meeting on Monday, a phone call from the hospital came in.
"My dad is awake?" Ting Shuang stood up abruptly and was hit by the corner of the table on her thigh, "I'll come right over."
The nurse said that Zhu Ao was still too weak and had to be observed for a few days, so he could not be transferred to the general ward, so he could not visit him that night, so he could only go the next day.
Before Ting Shuang didn't have much concept of weakness, what he had concept was life and death.
If you wake up, you will be born; if you cannot wake up, you will die.
When he was born, his father opened his eyes and cursed with rage, just like before; when he died, his father shut up and never spoke again.
And the word "weak" in his mind was nothing more than the one played on TV. He was weak, his face was bloodless, and no matter how weak he was, he was still alive. He could laugh and scold. Ao Shi, he realized that the truth is not the case.
The sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage are serious.
The right half of his father's body was paralyzed and he couldn't move. His right half of his body had no deep and shallow sensations, his right half of his vision was lost, and he couldn't speak clearly when he opened his mouth.
It turns out that weakness is a half-dead state.
Zhu Ao looked at Ting Shuang, his eyes were cloudy, his lips opened and closed, and he didn't know what to say.
The word "criminal" suddenly appeared in Ting Shuang's mind. His internal organs were pinched, and he wanted to get these two words out of his mind, but he couldn't get rid of them.
Zhu Wenjia was also beside him, and after watching Zhu Ao for a long time, he said in a barely audible voice, "Brother... Dad, will this be the case from now on?"
The current Zhu Ao is not at all like the unique father in his impression.
Two lines of tears flowed from Zhu Ao's eyes, from the corners of his eyes to the holes in his ears.
Ting Shuang woke up and said to Zhu Wenjia, "Go out for me."
Zhu Wenjia: "I—" "You go out first, I have something to say to Dad alone." Ting Shuang turned around and compared her mouth with Zhu Wenjia in a place Zhu Ao couldn't see: He could hear it, he was sober , he knows what you're talking about.
Ting Shuang understood Zhu Ao's two lines of tears.
People can die, but they can't live helplessly.
Zhu Wenjia went out, and Ting Shuang squatted beside Zhu Ao and said, "Doctor Cheng said that it was like this when I woke up, Dad, your situation is not bad. After we do rehabilitation or something, it will definitely be better. as usual."
Maybe knowing that he couldn't speak clearly, Zhu Ao didn't speak.
"Hey Dad, just listen to me. It's rare that I can keep saying that you can't retort, right." Ting Shuang joked deliberately.
Zhu Ao twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Laughing?" Ting Shuang also smiled, especially sunny, "Have you decided what to eat for the first time after going out? How about we go for soup? I have a ready-made cook, and the pork ribs and corn soup are very good. "
Zhu Ao let out a "um", and then said something, uh, uh, I don't understand.
Ting Shuang thought for a while and said, "what are you trying to ask? I'm on autumn vacation for the time being, and I'm fine when I'm not at school. Then... My brother is also fine. Auntie is a little sad, but looks healthy. "
Zhu Ao doesn't seem to want to ask these questions.
"Then, Dad, are you worried about the company?"
This time the question was right, but Ting Shuang did not dare to express her doubts and speculations, because Zhu Ao's blood pressure needed to be controlled, in case something happened to her emotions...
"When are you still worried about the company, what can the company do?" Ting Shuang said with a smile, "So many people are recruited just to eat and not work? Let them be busy with the company's affairs, and you can worry about it. Take care of yourself, focus on your health, and put your body first.”
In order to ease Zhu Ao's heart, he told a few more interesting things, and when he was about to end his visit, he carefully mentioned: "Dad, there is something I still have to ask. Before you enter the hospital... Who did you eat with?" Ah? If someone at the table persuades him to drink alcohol, he will have to take the responsibility. Maybe I have to sue him. No matter how bad it is, I have to come and apologize. "
"Let's narrow down the scope gradually." Zhu Ao couldn't answer, Ting Shuang thought of a way, "I ask, if it's right, you can say something, if it's wrong, don't say anything."
"The people who eat with you are people related to work, not just friends with no interests, right?"
"Right? Well, then, is it someone from the company or a partner? Is it a partner who drinks too much when talking about things?"
"No, that's someone inside the company."
"Dad, why are you looking at me like that?" Ting Shuang said, "Do you think I'm so stupid that I should ask Auntie directly?"
Zhu Ao responded and closed his eyes. With his current physical condition, it took a lot of effort to stay awake for so long.
"My aunt and I are polite on the surface, but in fact no one likes to talk to anyone. It's not that you don't know." Ting Shuang smiled and continued the question just now, "Eating with people from the company... If it is an ordinary employee, I don't think it's okay. Someone dare to persuade you to go to the bar? It must be an old friend, and a high-level... Yan Liqian? Or another shareholder?"
Zhu Ao is already asleep.
