Chapter 74 Surgery

On Thursday night, Lao Lei's family of four was as usual, Lei Meng robbed Lei Meng's iPad, Lei Meng had no choice but to do homework.Li Yuping sat by the bed and peeled apples, while Lei Zhentian held the remote control to switch channels, happily watching the anti-Japanese drama.

Early on Friday morning, Lei Meng called from the cafeteria for breakfast, and the mother and son ate together. Lei Zhentian had been on an empty stomach since he was about to undergo surgery last night, and angrily yelled that they abused the patient.

Lei Zhentian's surgery was scheduled for [-] o'clock in the morning on Friday, Lei Meng and Lei Meng both took a special day off to stay with him in the hospital.

Not long after breakfast, a nurse came to take Lei Zhentian's temperature and blood pressure, and asked about some physical conditions. After finding that everything was normal, the nurse brought a set of hospital gowns for Lei Zhentian to change into.

Lei Zhentian, who had been flaunting his power before, suddenly became timid, holding his hospital gown and tremblingly asking: "This... this...is it about to start?"

"Well, hurry up and get ready, I will push you into the operating room later."

Lei Zhentian swallowed, directed his children to go out, closed the door, and changed into hospital gowns with Li Yuping's help.

"They're all men, why are you so shy?" Lei Meng was speechless, and went out with his mobile phone.

Taking advantage of his inattention, Lei Meng successfully snatched the iPad and followed him out.

The two stood in the corridor, Lei Meng turned on the iPad, connected to the phone's WIFI, and began to browse Li Keran's latest news.When interviewed about his love life, Li Keran confessed that he had just ended a relationship and was in a period of vacancy recently... Lei Meng said casually: "Brother! I think I have hope again!"

——It didn't wait for Raymond to complain mercilessly as expected.

Lei Meng pressed the pause button and looked up at Lei Meng: "Brother?"

The cold wind has been raging for several months, and today is a rare good weather.The sky was blue, as if someone had brushed against it several times with clouds.Feng'er's footsteps also became gentle, slowly blowing on my heart, sending my thoughts to a very high place.

Lei Meng leaned against the window in the hospital corridor, tilted his head and stared out of the window in a daze, Lei Meng called him several times in a row, but he didn't hear him.

Lei Meng followed his line of sight and looked out the window. There was no UFO, only a white line left by the plane passing through the clouds, cutting the sky in half.

Lei Meng glanced at him, stared down at the iPad, and pressed the play button.

Not long after, the nurses rolled over a stretcher with pulleys, let the changed Lei Zhentian lie on it, pushed him into the elevator, and pushed him through the crowds to the outside of the operating room.

Lei Zhentian on the stretcher seemed to be in good spirits, Li Yuping kept holding his hand, but couldn't say anything, all her energy was used to restrain her tears from falling.

Lei Zhentian smiled, beckoning her to come closer, and brushing her fingertips across her red eye sockets: "Don't cry."

Li Yuping looked away, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Lei Zhentian patted her hand, and greeted a pair of children, Lei Meng and Lei Meng were standing beside the stretcher, and Lei Zhentian stuffed Li Yuping's hand into Lei Meng's: "You are Dad's little padded jacket, please spend more time with Mom for Dad .”

Lei Meng nodded, and silently hugged Li Yuping.

"Oh, women are like this!" Lei Zhentian sighed pretendingly, and went to look at Lei Meng again, "Son."

"Ok?"

"are you……"

Raymond showed a puzzled expression: "What?"

"It's nothing." Lei Zhentian turned his eyes away, and returned to his lively appearance: "Hey, go and buy me two cages of crab powder soup dumplings later, I want to eat them after my operation is over!"

Where are the crabs coming from in the winter to make crab noodle soup dumplings for you... Besides, how could it be possible to eat such greasy things after the operation...

Even though there were a hundred reasons to reject Lei Zhentian's unreasonable request, Lei Meng moved his mouth and said, "Yes."

"You count the time well, don't buy it early! It won't taste good when it's cold! I want to eat it while it's hot. Oh, I haven't finished talking yet!"

In the end, the nurse couldn't stand it anymore, and forced the stretcher into the operating room. Lei Zhentian complained intermittently and was isolated in the door, and soon the operating room became quiet.

Lei Meng supported Li Yuping to sit on the bench outside the operating room, and comforted her in a low voice. When she looked up, she found that Lei Meng was still in the original posture, standing there in a daze, looking at the door of the operating room.

"elder brother?"

Raymond didn't move.

"Brother?" Lei Meng increased the volume.

Raymond still didn't move.

Lei Meng supported Li Yuping with one hand, took out her cell phone with the other, and made a call.

"The cool breeze is buoyant, and the autumn moon is boundless. Thanks to my sentimental feelings, the days seem like years..."

The untimely ringtone rang jubilantly, and Lei Meng shivered. Under the eyes of the doctors and nurses around him, he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and turned off the sound.

Lei Meng glanced at the phone screen, and asked Lei Meng dumbfoundedly: "Why are you calling me?"

"If I don't call you, how long are you going to stand there stupidly?" Lei Meng put away the phone and said coldly.

"Uh...did I stand there for a long time?" Lei Meng scratched his head and quickly sat on the other side of Li Yuping, "Sorry, I didn't pay attention for a while."

The two comforted Li Yuping for a while. In fact, the three of them didn't sleep well last night. During this period of time, they seemed to be nonchalant, all in order to create a normal state of life in front of Lei Zhentian.No one told Lei Zhentian about the success rate of the operation, and the three of them never mentioned it.Before the operation, as long as Lei Zhentian was there, he could hear his hearty laughter as soon as he entered the ward, as if he was still at home, it was just a different place, it was no different.

Until this moment, Lei Zhentian was actually pushed into the operating room, a door separated his relatives, and a red "in operation" was lit on the top.Li Yuping could no longer bear the emptiness of this separation.

Perhaps, this is where heaven and man are separated forever.

The eloquent Raymond also felt that he was short of words at this time, and any words seemed powerless in the face of life and death.

Lei Meng hugged Li Yuping, gently wiped away her tears, and patted her on the back, just like how Li Yuping coaxed her to sleep countless times when she was a child, using a single word to soothe her anxiety.

"nothing……"

"good……"

"Do not worry……"

Shakespeare said: Weakness, thy name is woman.But sometimes, Raymond feels that women are strong and scary.

Perhaps because Lei Meng felt that he was in the way, Lei Meng told him: "Mom didn't eat much for breakfast, you go to the cafeteria to get some food, otherwise I'm afraid that mother will lose her strength later."

Raymond agreed and stood up like a marionette.Just two steps away, Lei Meng hurriedly called him from behind: "Brother!"

Raymond turned to look at her.

Lei Meng's expression was uncertain, but his eyes showed unusual firmness: "Are you coming back?"

"Of course, it's just to have a meal!" Raymond smiled, "What are you thinking about?"

Going down the stairs, Lei Meng first returned to the ward to get the lunch box, and then walked out of the ward building.He walked all the way to the parking lot and used the car key to unlock the small button car, only to realize that where the lunch box was in his hand, it was clearly the car key.

He stood there, looked hesitantly at the small car with flashing lights in front of him, and then at the direction of the ward building, gritted his teeth, and got into the car.

He glanced at the time on the car, and now he is driving to the airport, usually it takes about an hour to arrive, if he drives fast, it may take four to ten minutes, maybe he can make it before ten o'clock.

He turned on the ignition, started the car, and watched the speed decrease a little bit amidst the roar of the car... Two thousand... One thousand... One thousand... One thousand... One thousand... One thousand...

Song Sifan's lost expression and Lei Meng's firm eyes switched in his mind, like the front and back of a page being turned over and over again.

The speed finally dropped below [-], the roar gradually subsided, and the noise in my mind also subsided, and it was fixed on Lei Meng's face that was about to cry under the firm eyes.

——What are you doing?

Raymond turned off the engine with a wry smile, pulled out the car keys, left the parking lot, returned to the ward, threw the car keys on the table, and found the lunch box.

Holding a heavy lunch box, he dragged his feet to the cafeteria to grab the last bit of porridge left in the pot.

It was already past meal time, and the cafeteria was deserted, only Lei Meng was alone.Probably because she was idle and bored, after throwing the porridge spoon to him, the always aloof cafeteria aunt actually took the initiative to say, "Oh boy, who in your family is hospitalized?"

"My father." Raymond took a spoon and focused on picking the bottom of the porridge pot.

"I see you've been coming here for dinner recently, how is your father?"

"It's an operation." Raymond didn't want to talk more, put down the spoon, and closed the lunch box.

The aunt in the cafeteria was very enthusiastic: "Oh, then I wish your father a smooth operation!"

"Thank you, thank you for your kind words." Raymond thanked him sincerely.

"Can't you just eat plain porridge? I still have a pack of pickles here, so you can eat it with plain porridge!"

"How embarrassing." However, Raymond still accepted it unceremoniously, "Thank you, goodbye."

"Oh, I've been here for a long time, and I've met a lot of people. It's fate to meet you. We are the only place here that doesn't want to say goodbye to you, because seeing you again means that someone in your family is sick again. The hospital It's just a resting place, no matter what the result is, you have to leave here. Do you think it makes sense?"

"You're right." Raymond responded casually, preparing to leave.

The cafeteria lady suddenly lay down on the table at the dining window and asked, "Since the result is leaving, why are you still worrying?"

Lei Meng opened his mouth, wanting to refute that it was different, leaving after recovery and leaving after death were fundamentally two different concepts.

... But what about feelings?Since they are all going to be separated, what's the point of rushing to see them off?

The author has something to say: I found out that I can't be tortured... I fell!
