Even though this was the first time they had received a critical illness notice, An Lin and Liu Yue still felt as nervous and uneasy as when they received it for the first time.
The two of them were sitting on the bench outside the operating room. Liu Yue frowned and was worried and was held in her arms by her husband to comfort her. An Lin also had a worried look on his face.
It wasn't until they saw the red light outside the operating room turn to green, and the two of them watched the cart being pushed out, their eyes fixed on their son's pale and bloodless face. Only when they saw the attending doctor nodding did they feel relieved.
After a while, the couple stood outside the ward and looked inside through the transparent glass window.
The driver, Uncle Lin, brought them breakfast, "Sir, Madam, the young master will be fine. You should eat something first."
The two of them had been waiting outside the operating room since last night, and they both looked a little tired and haggard at the moment.
An Lin took it and thanked him. Then he whispered to his wife beside him, "I'll let Uncle Lin take you back first. You're tired too."
Liu Yue thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll go back and make some soup so that I can drink it when I wake up."
An Lin: "Thank you for your hard work."
Liu Yue shook her head. It was nothing difficult. Their son was in the ward. How could a parent not be worried or anxious?
The two talked quietly and discussed sending someone to guard them for a while. Because An Lin still has to go to the company, his schedule this morning has been postponed, and he has to go to the company to handle official business in the afternoon.
At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor, the pace was fast and fast.
An Lin and Liu Yue turned their heads and looked over at the same time, and saw a tall young man with cold eyebrows running towards them in a hurry, with a very worried look on his face, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, and his deep eyes filled with emotion. Full of worries.
The young man's temperament was really outstanding, and he also had a calmness that was beyond his age, which made both of them look at him twice.
After a while, the other party's footsteps slowed down and he slowly walked towards the two of them.
"Hello, are these Uncle An and Aunt An?" Xue Shiye asked softly. There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. It was obvious that he was running over, but his voice was not breathy when he spoke.
His eyes were fixed on An Lin and Liu Yue. From their brows and eyes, he could vaguely tell that they looked like they were sitting at the same table. They were undoubtedly their parents.
"I'm Xue Shiye, An Lianxi's deskmate." He originally wanted to say 'friend', but he changed his tone and said deskmate instead. He wasn't sure if his deskmate considered him a friend.
An Lin suddenly said, "It's you."
Liu Yue looked at Xue Shiye and took over the conversation, "You are Xiao Xi's friend, right? Have you made an appointment to go out together today?"
It's a friend... Xue Shiye's eyes moved slightly. He nodded to Liu Yue, his voice became deeper and deeper, "Yes, where is the other person?" He came to look for the person after asking their name at the front desk, and looked to one side. The ward number is here.
An Lin and Liu Yue stepped aside slightly and motioned for him to look behind them.
Xue Shiye looked over. Behind the glass window, the young man was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face. The person who smiled brightly at him yesterday was so quiet and lifeless today. Inexplicably, his heart seemed to have been cut by something, and blood was dripping.
It hurts.
My heart hurts.
At that moment, his breathing seemed to be strangled by something. Xue Shine's lips moved, but no sound came out.
What a strange feeling.
Xue Shinye thought: He actually hoped that it was himself lying inside, not this person.
"Sorry, Xiao Xi is sick and can't go out with you to play." Liu Yue spoke in a low voice, and her voice was choked at the end.
She was happy that her son had made friends at school, but she still felt sad about it. If it weren't for their failure to give their son a healthy body, he wouldn't have to go to the hospital from time to time.
"It doesn't matter."
After a long while, Xue Shiye responded, then with difficulty moved his eyes away from the ward, and met An Lin's eyes, "Uncle, can you let me look at him here? If you don't do anything, just look at... me I want to wait for him to be well,"
Speaking of this, Xue Shine was stunned again.
Because he wanted to wait for An Lian to laugh well.
When he recovers, the first person he sees is himself.
The thought came fast and strong.
Xue Shiye didn't want to ignore it.
An Lin was startled when he heard this, "Okay, then I'll trouble you."
He would still send the people who should be sent, and then Liu Yue went back home first.
As he said, Xue Shiye stayed outside the ward, just looking at the ward and doing nothing.
The phone was still buzzing and vibrating, and he knew it was Shen Jue's message without even thinking about it.
Thanks to Shen Jue, Xue Shiye knew that something had happened to the person he was waiting for.
The first time he saw Shen Jue's message, Xue Shiye's mind went blank and he had no idea how to react.
Obviously the two of them had only known each other for a few days, but it seemed like he had known this person for a long time, his attention was unconsciously attracted to him, and he wanted to be nice to him inexplicably.
Xue Shiye silently opened his phone and looked at it. There was no important news. He asked the other party which hospital he went to. Shen Jue was quite well informed and actually knew that Shen Jue was asking him if he went to the hospital.
[Cousin: Did you really go? 】
[Cousin: Oh no, brother, what kind of heart-breaking friendship do you have with him? 】
[Cousin: We've only known each other for a few days and you already care about him so much! Have you been dropped? ? 】
On the Internet, Shen Jue was very courageous and no longer afraid of his cousin's eyes. After all, the latter couldn't kill him with his eyes through the network cable, so he danced even more happily.
[Cousin: You look like a plastic guy who forgets his younger brother! 】
[Ye: What did you say? 】
On the other side, Shen Jue immediately knelt down after seeing the reply.
[Cousin: Nothing, nothing! 】
['Cousin' withdrew a message. 】
Xue Shiye took back his phone and continued to sit.
Time passed minute by minute, and every second passed very painfully. The people in the ward never woke up. Xue Shiye stared inside, as if reluctant to move away.
It was almost noon, and An Lianxi just woke up. The anesthetic on his body had not yet worn off. His body felt like it had been filled with lead, and he was unable to move.
This feeling is very familiar.
When An Lianxi saw the white ceiling, he knew he was in the hospital again. He sighed in his heart and wanted to turn around.
Just at this moment, a low, familiar voice sounded in my ears, "Wake up."
The sound of footsteps came, approaching him. An Lianxi's eyes moved and he saw an unexpected person, "Xue,"
"Don't talk." Xue Shiye interrupted him.
An Lianxi blinked.
Why is Xue Shiye guarding him? Why is Xue Shiye here? A series of questions flashed through An Lianxi's mind.
Every time after entering the hospital, the first thing An Lianxi saw when he woke up was either a doctor or a nurse, and the most common ones were his parents. Therefore, he never thought that he would see anyone else besides them the first time he opened his eyes.
But strangely enough, he didn't hate it, and was even...a little happy.
Was it because he didn't come as promised that Xue Shinye came to find him?
An Lianxi couldn't help but feel guilty in his eyes. The other party was his first friend and he was willing to ask him out to play, but he refused.
"I'm not,"
"I know."
It's his problem, knowing that the other person is not in good health, yet still asking him out.
Xue Shiye didn't even dare to think about what he would do if An Lianxi became ill after the two of them went out.
Just thinking about it made him feel a strong suffocation, and his heart throbbed violently.
If he didn't take good care of the person and didn't send the person to the hospital in time.
What will be the result.
Xue Shiye's breathing became heavy.
At this time, Liu Yue, who had just gone to wash the spoons, came back. This matter could actually be done by the nurse, but she was already used to doing things herself for her son.
After coming in, Liu Yue found Xue Shiye standing beside the bed. His pace quickened a little, and he stepped forward and said, "Little boy, are you awake?"
"...Um."
An Lianxi answered in a weak voice.
The tips of Xue Shiye's ears moved slightly.
Little boy...
"The doctor said it will take a while before you can eat. Are you hungry?" Liu Yue sat on the edge of the bed and took An Lianxi's hand from the quilt.
Xue Shiye looked over and immediately lowered his eyes with a thought in his mind.
Liu Yue was still saying: "Xiao Xue has come to see you. He has been waiting for you here for a long time."
An Lianxi's eyes slowly moved to Xue Shiye, who turned slightly sideways and looked away, "Thank you, thank you."
Xue Shiye: "No, thank you."
He wanted to say no need to say thank you, but in the end he realized there were other people in the room and quickly changed his words.
Liu Yue had a very good impression of Xue Shiye. He didn't talk much and seemed to have a calm personality. He really cared about his son. The more she looked at Xue Shine, the more she liked him. He was a good kid.
"Auntie also made some soup for you, please drink some." Liu Yue said, it is now lunch time.
Xue Shiye paused and said, "Okay."
Liu Yue was still waiting to eat with her son, but after a while she received a call. It was An Lin who asked her to go home and help pick up the documents and put them in the safe at home.
An Lin felt relieved when he learned that his son was awake, so he called. The company was too far away from home, and he had things on hand that he couldn't leave for the time being, so he could only ask Liu Yue to help deliver the documents.
Liu Yue agreed and looked at Xue Shiye hesitantly when she came back.
If there were only caregivers at this time, it would be enough to bother the caregivers, but now there is Xue Shiye.
Xue Shinye said: "If Auntie has anything to do, leave this place to me."
Liu Yue saw that he had seen through her, so she said a few words to him, and finally said goodbye to her son before leaving in a hurry.
When Xue Shiye saw the person leaving, he sat down in Liu Yue's previous seat. An Lianxi's hand was still exposed. It was a very clean and beautiful hand, with round, full and neatly trimmed nails, and some pink on the fingertips.
When An Lianxi saw his mother leaving, he wanted to talk to Xue Shiye, but before he could open his mouth, his hand was held.
He was startled.
Xue Shiye said nothing.
The room was silent.
An Lianxi didn't speak again for a while, not knowing what to say.
Xue Shiye held his hand no matter what.
It was different from when his mother held him. Xue Shiye's hand... was so big, it seemed to be a bit bigger than his.
An Lianxi thought again that Xue Shiye was rubbing his head before.
It seems different when his father rubs him...
As he thought about it, the tips of his ears seemed to feel hot, and he hurriedly stopped his thoughts.
I don't know how much time passed, but An Lianxi heard Xue Shiye say: "You can eat now."
An Lian scoffed, "Oh," and said slowly: "Then, could you please help me shake the bed?"
Xue Shiye stepped forward and helped him shake up the bed. He put one hand on his back and placed a pillow. When he took his hand back, he couldn't help but twist his fingertips.
The back is so thin.
"Can I trouble you again and call the nurse over for me?" An Lianxi raised his face and looked at Xue Shiye.
Xue Shiye stood beside him and had not yet moved away. At this time, his head was slightly lowered, and the distance between the two was a little close.
"What are you calling the nurse for?"
An Lianxi fluttered his eyelashes twice and said, "Call the nurse and feed me..."
He still has an intravenous drip in his hand and can't feed himself at all. His reactions are much slower than usual, and his speech is also slower.
Xue Shiye looked at him and lowered his eyebrows.
An Lianxi looked back, his heart skipping a beat, feeling something strange.
Suddenly, he heard something.
"Can't I?"
An Lianxi was stunned.
Xue Shinye leaned a little lower, looked level with him, and spoke slowly, word by word.
"Let me take care of you."
