leave you

"My mother has difficulty moving, and it's not good to always let the teacher and teacher's wife take care of her." Gu Zhilin seemed to know what he was thinking, and said softly, "I can't get out of bed now, please help me take care of her, okay? "

Xue Jin couldn't understand why he couldn't get out of bed. He felt that he had no position to refuse, but he still wanted to struggle for a while: "My arm is not very convenient..."

Gu Zhilin didn't force him, just when the nurse came in, he explained a few words to him, and then reached for the button beside the bed with his free hand, trying to raise the bed.

Xue Jin rolled his eyes at him angrily, and pushed the bed down again: "Lie down honestly, don't you think about it?"

Gu Zhilin looked at him with a smile, Xue Jin felt a little uncomfortable, and had nothing to do with him, so he reluctantly agreed.

He went back to his ward to change into a decent coat, and cleaned himself up in the bathroom, then he picked up the fruit basket that Yang Zixi brought yesterday and went to Gu Zhilin's place.When the nurse washed the fruit and brought it back, Wan Sennian happened to arrive with Gu Zhilin's mother.

Xue Jin was still thinking about how to explain to his mother, but when he looked up, he found that the aunt pushed in by Wan Sennian looked familiar.

"Mom, this is Xue Jin." Gu Zhilin who was lying on the bed introduced, "My...good friend."

Xue Jin glanced at him subconsciously, and saw that his expression was normal, so he stood up bravely and said hello to Mama Gu and Wan Sennian.

"Hello," Gu's mother smiled at him kindly, "I still have injuries on my body, please sit down."

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Xue Jin gave up the soft chair beside the bed to Wan Sennian, stood aside by himself, and asked them if they wanted some fruit.

Wan Sennian said: "Let the nurse go, you sit too."

Xue Jin didn't move, and the mother who was looking after Gu Zhilin asked him how his injury was with a distressed face, feeling very uncomfortable - Gu Zhilin has been better these two days, if she had come two days earlier, I'm afraid she would be even more sad.

After Mama Gu finished her greetings, he sighed softly, stepped forward and bowed to her.

"Auntie, Gu Zhilin was injured so badly because he saved me, I'm sorry."

Gu's mother was taken aback by him, and even Wan Sennian who was sitting beside her was surprised, but Gu Zhilin who was lying on the bed was just stunned, and couldn't help laughing after recovering.

He laughed not too loudly, but the ward was very quiet, and the others were immediately brought back to their senses by the laughter.

"You kid, you scared me." Gu's mother hurriedly helped Xue Jin up, "Apologize to me for what, you didn't do anything wrong."

She was sitting in a wheelchair, but her hands were not too weak. Xue Jin was afraid of crushing her, so he had to stand up straight.

In his opinion, Gu Zhilin's insanity was Gu Zhilin's fault, but he still had to explain to Gu Zhilin's mother - after all, Gu Zhilin's injuries were almost all because of him, what did the two of them do in private? Communication is their business, and he still needs to apologize in front of the elders.

"It's his choice what he does. I can't control him when he's almost [-]." Gu's mother doesn't know him as well as Gu Zhilin. She laughed, looked him carefully, and said, "It's you...have we met somewhere before?"

Xue Jin blinked.

Gu Zhilin's mother took good care of herself, she smiled with crooked eyebrows, she didn't look like Gu Zhilin, she was kind and friendly, she looked like she was in her 40s.She was wearing a well-fitting coat and trousers, dressed plainly yet tastefully, it was not obvious just now, but now that she was getting closer, Xue Jin finally understood where the inexplicable sense of déjà vu came from when she first entered the door.

What a coincidence.

He raised the corners of his mouth and showed a smile that is very pleasing to the elders: "I was taking care of her dog for a friend before, and there was a little accident when I was walking by the river, it seems that you and another aunt helped me. "

In his usual glamorous appearance, he is not that lethal to the aunts, but now he is hanging one arm, wearing a hospital gown under a thick knit coat, and his forehead hair is hanging down softly. Harmless, no wonder the nurses on the whole floor treat him like a baby, and Mother Gu is no exception.

There was nothing to talk to Gu Zhilin, he didn't know how to chat at all, and it wasn't the first day that Gu's mother knew her son, after caring about her, she turned her attention to others, and soon chatted with Xue Jin.Coincidentally, her favorite gardening and pet Xue Jin can chat a little bit, with a sweet mouth, the pleasure of chatting with him finally slightly dilutes the shock and sadness caused by Gu Zhilin's injury.

"Did the dog last time belong to your friend?" She still remembered Lucas, "Our family also raised a border collie before, and then gave it away because we couldn't take care of it... I really want to get another one in the future. "

Xue Jin had heard Gu Zhilin talk about this before, but he didn't expect that she would mention it to himself when they met for the second time. He was a little puzzled by the accident, but he still smiled and comforted him: "There is a chance, next time I will You can take it to see you."

Although he didn't say anything, he was very strange in his heart: Why did you mention this to him?

Xue Jin found it strange, and subconsciously glanced at Gu Zhilin secretly. He always felt that the latter said something to Gu's mother before he knew it, but the other party's expression was as usual, and he couldn't see any clues, so he had to turn around and continue to accompany Gu. Mom speaks.

Gu Zhilin was lying on the bed, ordered not to move around, his field of vision was severely blocked, and he didn't realize that he was being watched several times.He talked with Wan Sennian about work, and the latter left soon after. Before leaving, he asked if he wanted to send Gu's mother home, but was rejected: "I want to stay for a while, Teacher Wan. You go ahead, thank you."

Because she stayed, she didn't order the hospital's sick meal for dinner. Xue Jin called and ordered a few light dishes and soup from the restaurant he frequented, and asked them to be sent to the hospital.Originally, he didn't want to disturb Gu Zhilin's mother and son, so he left a portion of the meal and prepared to go back to his own ward to eat, but Gu's mother refused to say anything, so he had to stay together in the end.

After dinner, Luo Shan and his wife came to visit them with Lei Lei, so Xue Jin asked him to take a detour to take Mama Gu home.

Gu's mother likes children, so Feng Qingqing and Lei Lei chatted with her, Luo Shan dragged Xue Jin to the balcony at the end of the corridor, looking as if he wanted to hurry up and talk to him.

"I wanted to ask you last time I came here, what are you..."

Previously, he was so busy with various trivial matters that he never had time to ask Xue Jin why he and Gu Zhilin had a car accident on the highway from Fengshi to Jiangcheng, but now he saw that Xue Jin and Gu Zhilin's mother had a happy conversation , seems to have known each other for a long time, and the doubts in my heart surfaced again.

Xue Jin didn't intend to hide it from him. Although the timing wasn't right, he still told the truth: "It's just what you think, probably."

"You..." Luo Shan looked him up and down suspiciously, "Really?"

Xue Jin didn't speak, and he made up a play in his own brain: "Didn't you all look like fire and water before? Why did you suddenly..."

"I can't explain this matter for a while." Xue Jin shook his head, and explained to him the work he had accumulated, "You go back and go through the formalities, and the two urgent cases will be transferred to you first. Agent, I can deal with the rest after I leave the hospital."

Luo Shan complied, and said again: "What about Gu Zhilin? He's seriously injured, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to handle his work."

"It seems that the cases in his hands are almost closed. Anyway, he can't take on new ones for the time being. If there is a need to deal with the aftermath, Wan Lao will probably help him deal with it..."

Xue Jin saw that his expression had changed in the middle of speaking, and couldn't help asking: "What are you thinking?"

"Since you are all..." Luo Shan gestured, "Then, the previous proposal between me and Lao Jiang..."

Xue Jin was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to mention this suddenly, he hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.

"...Let's talk about it, I don't know what he thinks."

After Luo Shan's family sent Gu's mother back, the ward became quiet again.

Xue Jin sat by the bed and played the game for a while—he could only operate it with one hand, so he had no choice but to give up the mobile game he usually liked, and switched to a pinball game that he could play with one hand.Gu Zhilin lay on the bed and watched him play, until the nurse knocked on the door at nearly nine o'clock: "Wash up and go to bed early, there is an examination to be done tomorrow morning."

"..."

The two looked at each other, and then Xue Jin asked curiously: "He can't move while lying down, how can he wash up?"

"Isn't there a nurse?" The nurse was more puzzled than the two of them, "And you're here too, so it's okay to help him."

The nurse's daughter was sick, and she asked them for leave to go home half an hour ago. Xue Jin agreed after seeing that Gu Zhilin's condition was stable. It is impossible to call her back now.It was nine o'clock at night, and it was not realistic to hire another one, so when the nurse left, he could only bite the bullet and get up to help.

Xue Jin himself is also a one-armed hero, and the hanging arm will not be removed until tomorrow, and now he can't even unscrew the towel, so he can only take the mouthwash and wet wipes to Gu Zhilin, and barely help him take care of them.After dealing with Gu Zhilin's personal problems, he realized that he was sweating profusely in the cold weather.

He went to the toilet to wash his face, came out and took off his half-covered coat, and while wiping his splashed hair, he turned up the heating temperature and complained: "The nurses should be paid more hours."

In fact, he just wiped his body, no matter how tired he is, he complained with half truth and half lie, but Gu Zhilin couldn't help laughing: "Thanks for your hard work."

If you can joke, it means you are in good spirits.Xue Jin looked up at him: "Are you better?"

"Much better, thanks to you."

"Okay, it's just the two of us, there's no need to say so many beautiful words." Xue Jin sat down on the chair beside the bed, reached out and touched his left hand that had been casted, "Do you feel it?"

"It's through the plaster." Gu Zhilin smiled again, "It doesn't hurt, don't worry."

Xue Jin's expression froze: "... I didn't ask you if it hurts."

"Then what do you want to ask?" Gu Zhilin asked kindly.

Xue Jin and him looked at each other for a moment, making sure that he found a little joke in Gu Zhilin's eyes.

He was a little unhappy, and felt that he should give way to others. After thinking about it, he finally said what he had thought before the car accident.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, do you want to... I mean, after you're discharged from the hospital," Xue Jin thought about it, "shall we give it a try?"
