Tan Jing was on the afternoon shift, and it happened to be weekends, and she was so busy that she didn't even touch the ground. When she finally closed, she found out that she had been charged 100 yuan in fake money.Receiving counterfeit money is the most frustrating thing. Tan Jing has always been careful. She has never made such a mistake before, and she was too busy today.Wang Yuling happened to be with her in the afternoon shift, and Wang Yuling said, "Why don't you give it to Liang Yuanan." Although Liang Yuanan was always joking and not in good shape, he took good care of the girls in the store. He brought a handful of change and said, "Here, I still have fifteen yuan to buy cigarettes." Although fifteen yuan is missing, the little girls are always happy, and they will say sweetly, "Thank you." Brother Liang."

Tan Jing felt bad, although Liang Yuanan would still spend it if he took it, but it must be equally uncomfortable for others to receive counterfeit money for small businesses. Wang Yuling disagreed: "You are an elm bump." Tan Jing smiled grumpily: "Forget it, let's learn a lesson." In fact, I still feel distressed. A month's salary is only in the early 2,000 plus overtime pay, and I suddenly lost 100 yuan. Of course, I am annoyed.She buried her head and continued to roll accounts, and suddenly heard the sound of wind chimes, and Wang Yuling said, "I'm sorry, we are already closed."

"I want to order a cake." The deep and melodious baritone voice seems to be magnetic, and it is shocking to the ears. Tan Jing raised her head involuntarily, and the first thing she saw was the collar, the collar of the shirt, without a tie, but with two buttons unbuttoned, looking very casual, with a suit draped over one elbow.From the side of the cash register, you can only see the side face of the customer. Although it is only a side face, but with clear eyebrows, he is a rare handsome man. Tan Jing felt very lost, she lowered her head and continued to count the money, and she heard Wang Yuling's voice softened a bit: "Why don't you do this, if you are not in a hurry, pick out a cake today, and you can come to pick it up tomorrow ?”

The man seemed to ponder for a few seconds, and said, "Forget it." Watching him turn around and walk out of the store, Wang Yuling suddenly had an idea and called out: "Please wait a moment, we still have a mounting master who hasn't left, why don't I let him work overtime to make one for you?" Liang Yuanan was already off work, but Wang Yuling called him, and he happened to have not reached the subway station, so he came back quickly, washed his hands and changed his clothes, and went to the operating room. The man thanked him very politely, and then chose the shape of the cake, probably for his girlfriend, because he chose a heart shape and rose patterns all over it.This kind of cake shop sells the best, vulgar is vulgar, greasy is greasy, but love has never been neither vulgar nor greasy.

Wang Yuling was still patiently asking if you want to write on the cake, if you want to sprinkle chocolate powder, if you want to put icing on it, the man said: "Give me a card." The card that came with the cake in the store was very exquisite, and the man seemed to think of something: "I'll get a pen from the car." Wang Yuling hurriedly turned around and called: "Tan Jing, get the pen." Tan Jing had no choice but to send the pen over, and she was so close that she could smell the faint aroma of the man's body, which seemed to be the coolness of mint, or the smell of green tea, pure and clean.

"thanks." The man turned his head to write, because Tan Jing saw his fingers, which were very slender, because he lowered his head halfway. Tan Jing walked quickly to the cashier and sorted the banknotes. When the man came to pay the money, her heart was still pounding, as if seeing Nie Yucheng for the first time. At that time, she had just entered No. 14 Middle School.The homework is heavy and the road is long, so I only go home once a week.Every time I go home on Saturday, my mother always gets her something to eat in advance, and leaves in a hurry before she can say a few words to her.At that time, my mother used weekends to teach piano lessons, and each student lived not close to each other, and had to switch several buses back and forth, but the income was still quite good.Tan Jing knows that her mother is not easy, and she has always been very well-behaved.

When her mother got sick for the first time, Tan Jing was still in school.The class teacher called her out of the classroom and told her that her mother had entered the hospital.Tan Jing rushed to the hospital in a hurry, but she couldn't find her mother in the emergency room. She was anxiously asking the nurse when she heard someone behind her ask, "Are you Teacher Xie's daughter?" The deep and melodious baritone voice seems to be magnetic, and it is shocking to the ears.Tan Jing turned around, and the first thing she saw was the collar, the collar of the T-shirt, the light blue striped T-shirt, a very refreshing and casual big boy.

At that time, Tan Jing was confused and could only ask, "Where is my mother?" "It has been transferred to the observation room. The doctor said that there are no beds in the inpatient department for the time being, and they will be transferred to the inpatient department after a bed is vacated." He paused and said, "I will take you there." Tan Jing followed him through the long corridor of the hospital, and turned another corner, which was the observation room of the emergency center.My mother was lying on the bed, with some instrument tubes inserted into her body, covered with a hospital quilt, her face was pale, and even her lips were gray.Tan Jing said "Mom" and choked in her throat, tears streaming down immediately.

He comforted her: "The doctor said it's all right, don't worry too much." Tan Jing never knew that her mother had heart disease. The mother and daughter had lived together for many years. When she heard about it today, she suddenly felt as if the sky had collapsed and she was lost.Fortunately, although the boy was not a few years older than her, he behaved quite calmly.After telling her the cause and effect one by one, Tan Jing found out that his name was Nie Yucheng. Today, her mother went to his house to give him a piano lesson. Unexpectedly, she passed out in the middle of the lesson. Fortunately, it was delivered in time. It's all right.

Tan Jing is naturally very grateful, thank you again and again.Thank you so much that he felt embarrassed: "Don't see others like this, let alone Teacher Xie, even a stranger should be sent to the hospital if this happened to him." He added, "Mr. Xie usually treats me like this. Good." It was only later that Tan Jing found out that Nie Yucheng had also paid the hospital a deposit of 5,000 yuan in advance.My mother stayed in the hospital for more than half a month, and only went to the bank to withdraw the money after she was discharged from the hospital. Because the doctor kept telling her to stay in bed, Tan Jing had to take it and return it to Nie Yucheng.

The community where Nie Yusheng lived was on a mountain, with the mountain behind and the sea facing, and the scenery was exceptionally beautiful.It was the time when the phoenix flowers bloomed at that time, and there were tall phoenix trees on both sides of the road. The big and gorgeous flowers looked like countless fiery butterflies from a distance.Tall trees shade the black asphalt road, extending all the way to the top of the mountain.The mountain road was tortuous, Tan sat quietly to the terminal of the bus, and she was the only passenger left on the huge bus. The security guard at the gate wouldn't let her in, so Tan Jing borrowed the security guard's landline to call Nie Yucheng, and stood under the tree outside the gate to wait.A layer of messy red flowers fell on the sidewalk, more like a rain of flowers.Tan Jing stood there for a while, when she suddenly felt that something had fallen on top of her head, and stretched out her hand to feel for it, only to realize that it was a fallen flower.Just as he stroked the flowers down his hair, he heard footsteps behind him. Tan Jing turned around, and it really was Nie Yucheng.Wearing a white T-shirt and white trousers, he walked over with fiery red flowers, and smiled at her: "Have you been waiting for a long time?" Tan Jing only saw Nie Yucheng's appearance clearly this time, his brows are clear and bright, he is a rare handsome boy.Tan Jing has always been introverted, and she doesn't talk to boys very much in school, so she blushed before she could speak: "No." She calmed down and handed him the envelope in her hand, "This is what my mother asked me to bring." , and, thank you." Nie Yucheng didn't accept the envelope, but asked first, "Is Teacher Xie feeling better?" Tan Jing said, "It's much better, thank you." Nie Yucheng said: "I'm so sorry, I haven't paid the tuition fees for the past few months to Mr. Xie, let's pay the tuition fees for the 5,000 yuan first, and there is more than 1,000 yuan left, I will make it up in two days, is that okay? " He said it very politely, and Tan Jing didn't know the specific situation of her mother's teaching, but her mother went to the bank to withdraw the money and asked her to send it, so she whispered: "Why don't you take it first, and pay the tuition fee when the time comes." My mother." Nie Yucheng couldn't help laughing, revealing a mouthful of white and neat teeth: "Why are you twisting like this?" Originally it was a very common sentence, but Tan Jing's heart was pounding, as if she had just measured 800 meters in school, and after running for a long time, even her heart was about to jump out. One night after a long time, Wang Yuling, who shared the rent with her at that time, was bored for a while, so she rented a few DVDs of movies and went back to watch them. One of them was called "Heartbeat". I rubbed my arms sorely with the washboard, and occasionally looked up at the TV screen.Of course, the film is beautiful and romantic. It turns out that boys and girls all over the world feel so beautiful and good, which makes people feel very sad. The guest took the cake, Liang Yuanan washed his hands and changed his clothes and came out, and asked with a smile, "Let's eat supper together?" Wang Yuling agreed, and Tan Jing said, "I have to go back and do my laundry..." "Your clothes will be washed in a while." Wang Yuling interrupted her, "I told you to buy a fully automatic washing machine, and you are always unwilling." Tan Jing didn't say a word, the monthly rent for utilities, and all the expenses, there is not much money left.Wang Yuling has already dragged her: "Let's go, let's go home and watch TV." Turning along the intersection, there are several barbecue stalls in the alley.Business is going well, and the smoke is smoky.Liang Yuanan was obviously a regular customer, he greeted the boss casually, ordered a bunch of things without any explanation, and then ordered three more glasses of draft beer.Tan Jing said, "I don't know how to drink." Wang Yuling pushed the big glass of wine to Liang Yuanan, and said, "Tan Jing is the most old-fashioned, she doesn't know anything, she doesn't dare to do anything." Thinking about the counterfeit banknotes again, she clattered to Liang Yuanan, "You say she Is it an elm bump?" Tan Jing smiled kindly, and Liang Yuanan asked, "Where's that fake money, can you show me it?" Tan Jing lowered her head and found it from the bag. Liang Yuanan looked at it over and over in her hand and said, "This looks real, no wonder you didn't recognize it." Tan Jing said: "It's all my fault that I lost my head in a hurry. I should have passed through the cash detector, but I forgot." Liang Yuanan put away the money: "Let me spend it for you, I know you don't have the guts to spend it." "It's not good." Wang Yuling had already chuckled: "See, she is so honest." Talking quietly, it's not easy to ask Liang Yuanan to get the money back.Coincidentally, the barbecue was served at this time, and Liang Yuanan greeted: "Come here, it won't taste good when it's cold." He and Wang Yuling just talked and joked, and then confuse the matter. Wang Yuling's rented house was on the same road as Liang Yuanan's, and the two drove the subway together.Tan Jing took the bus home. In the empty carriage, the few passengers looked tired.The light from the street lamp bounced in, like a broken copy of a movie, lighting up the carriage flickering on and off.She put her arms on the car window, and the night wind was slightly cool. Only when she got off work at night, would there be seats on the bus, because she usually got off work very late.Only then did she think about something—in fact, she didn't think about anything.For life, in fact, it has long been numb, but although the mind is empty, the whole person cannot relax. It takes about ten minutes to walk after getting off the bus. This large area is full of old-fashioned residential buildings. There are many small shops and restaurants on both sides of the road. At this time, several of them are open. The lights in the shops are like reflections. One is reflected on the narrow road.When passing by the fruit shop, Tan Jing stopped and bought two catties of peaches.Peaches are cheap and sweet this season.When she was looking for change, a dime fell to the ground. She searched and couldn't find it, but finally the boss had sharp eyes and picked it up for her. The plastic bag containing the peaches was thin and small, but there were no more than five or six peaches, and it was so full that it hurt her fingers after a while.She changed her hand to carry the bag, and when she walked to the gate of the community, there happened to be a very bright street lamp.It was still a very old-fashioned iron gate, and the shadows of the strips of fences were reflected on the ground. She thought for a while before turning around. The car stopped without turning on the headlights.For a moment she felt that this was probably a dream, because it was only like this in a dream.She smiled weakly, as if laughing at herself for not being able to control herself, but she knew immediately that this was not a dream.Because Nie Yucheng got out of the car, he not only got out of the car, but also walked towards her. Tan Jing didn't move, the evening wind blew her skirt like a dove's wings, gently patting her skin.And the peach in her hand was as heavy as a thousand catties, making her fingers red, tight and painful. She regretted buying the peach, maybe she could escape faster with empty hands.But she subconsciously straightened her waist, escape?No, she doesn't need to escape anymore.After many years, she always felt that she was weaker than before, but today, she suddenly felt that the rough life did not make her weak, but made her stronger. Nie Yucheng walked all the way in front of her, the shadow cast by his tall figure under the street lamp enveloped her, she slowly raised her head to look at him, her eyes were only peaceful. He had already recognized her when he was in the cake shop, otherwise he wouldn't have ordered that cake, but she gave him a slap in the face back then, and the money and goods between them have already been settled, and no one owes her any more. Who.After such a long time, when they met again, she found that she no longer complained at all.All the pain and embarrassment in the past can really be diluted or even forgotten with time. Nie Yucheng didn't show any expression, just looked at her calmly.Tan Jing felt that she should say something, not because she was oppressed by his aura, but because she had to say something.Why did he follow her home?Are you curious?No, Nie Yucheng was never curious, and he never did useless things.She felt that she had to speak up, the white-clothed boy who came on the fallen flowers back then was dead, and today's encounter was just a ghost. She even smiled: "Long time no see." He looked at the dilapidated building behind her, and asked indifferently, "Do you live here?" "Yes." She seemed to meet an old friend, her tone was calm and unwavering, "Do you want to go up and sit down?" He raised half of his eyebrows. This man is still so handsome, his every move reveals an extraordinary elegance, his deep voice still seems to be magnetic, but the words can't hide the icy meanness: "You often invite men to come up and sit down." ?” "Of course not." She said quickly, "I don't mean anything else. My husband should be back from get off work. If you don't mind, go up and have a cup of tea." He smiled and said, "No need." He followed her here by car, seeing that she was not doing well, so he could feel at ease.She smiled and said, "Why don't you go up and eat some fruit, I remember you like peaches the most." Once he had a fever and was sitting in the infusion room. She prepared slices of peaches and fed them to him. She felt distressed while feeding him, because his eyes were red from the fever, and there were tiny blood spots in his eyes.At that time, he still called her his wife. At that time, she thought that they would definitely get married. How stupid at that time, she took everything seriously. "Thank you, let's do it next time." He was still polite, as if treating a stranger. She smiled easily and said, "Then I'll go up, goodbye." He didn't say goodbye to her, goodbye, no, never.Today's side is completely superfluous. She doesn't want to see her again in this life, and he must be the same. She walked all the way to the corridor and felt that her palms were damp, and her vest was also covered with cold sweat.She hugged the bag of peaches like she was holding some kind of treasure, and groped her way up the dark stairwell step by step, for fear of waking up something. It turned out—it turned out that it had been seven years. She was not doing well, just as he wanted.She didn't lie, but when she invited him to come up just now, she was really afraid that he would really come up. At that time, she really didn't know how to clean up the mess... When she took out the key to open the door, she heard a clatter in the living room There was a bang, and I don't know what fell down.As soon as she stepped into the darkness, Sun Zhijun had returned from get off work, but as usual, he was drunk.Even without turning on the light, she could still smell the smell of alcohol and smoke on his body. She stopped there for a while, as if gathering a little strength, reached out and fumbled for the switch, and turned on the light. Sun Zhijun vomited all over the room. She opened the windows to let the air in, and went to the kitchen to shovel coal ash to clean up the dirt.Originally, every household used to burn natural gas, but she exchanged a lot of coal dust with Ms. Wang who drove the elevator. Ms. Wang lives in a small bungalow next to the carport. There is no natural gas. She lives very frugally and usually burns briquettes.She begged for cinders because Sun Zhijun vomited all over the floor every time he was drunk.Tan Jing cleaned up the house very quickly, and then fetched a basin of warm water to wipe Sun Zhijun's face. As soon as the towel touched his face, he turned his arm and hit her nose with his elbow, hitting her head hard. Dazed, the whole person leaned back and sat down on the ground. The nose started to bleed, so she picked up the roll of paper, rolled it into a ball and stuffed it, then continued to wipe Sun Zhijun's face and arms.The warm nosebleed slowly soaked the paper roll. When she lowered her head and twisted the towel, drop by drop fell into the washbasin.She went to change a basin of water, and at this moment Sun Zhijun behaved like a big baby and let her play with him.After washing him, she took off his shoes and changed the towel to wipe his feet.Seeing him lying on the sofa, I knew that I couldn't get him to the bed, so I took the bed towel from the bedroom and put it on him, so that he could sleep well. After finishing all this work, the bangs were already wet with sweat and pressed against his forehead.She took her pajamas to take a shower, and then came out to do the laundry.Sun Zhijun's jeans were so thick and heavy that they could only be cleaned with a brush. She was only too busy to sweat again, and finally took the basin to the balcony to dry the clothes. The night wind on the balcony was very cool, and she couldn't help standing for a while. Just a short moment is enough to think of many things. When people are extremely tired and sleepy, they will always recall their best and happiest times.This kind of memory is too extravagant, she leans on the screen door, there are people far and near, the lights of thousands of houses are dotted, and the sound of distant cars comes, it is like another world.The appearance of Nie Yucheng still disturbed her today, she always felt that her heart was dead, but why did he want to kill him? Fortunately, she was married, she had never been so grateful, but there was a small voice of panic deep in her heart.In fact, what if you are not married?The resentment between them has been deeply rooted, Nie Yucheng said: Tan Jing, do you think this is over?It's early, if you don't ruin your reputation, I will never let you go. Being ruined is nothing, she, who is a thousand times more painful than being ruined, has endured it. Even she herself didn't know how she survived in the end, but fortunately, it was all over. When she woke up the next morning, Sun Zhijun was already sober.He has gone to work.She sometimes works the morning shift and sometimes the evening shift, and he also sometimes works the day shift and sometimes night shift.After work, Sun Zhijun went to a small restaurant to drink with his colleagues, and he would never come back until he was drunk.At first she persuaded, after all, drinking hurts the body.Later, once she persuaded her for a long time, he punched her with his fist and knocked the bowl of hangover soup in her hand to the ground. The porcelain bowl shattered and the soup splashed all over the floor. Don't persuade him anymore. She takes a break at work, so she doesn't have to go to the store all day today.After tidying up, she went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and made stewed beef brisket with tomatoes and fish balls.The price of beef has risen sharply, and she can't take care of it anymore. After finishing these two dishes, she put them in the lunch box. She had already taken the transportation card and planned to go out, but after thinking about it, she sat down again.She didn't want to go anywhere today, including Grandma Chen's. She spared a whole day for no reason, and she washed all the sheets and bedding at home.I carefully cleaned the oil fume and scale on the kitchen tiles, and finally cleaned the toilet.After tidying up inside and out, and the windows were clean everywhere, she took off her rubber gloves and took a sip of the herbal tea hanging on the window sill.After drinking tea for a while, she became restless, got up again, took the key to open the drawer, and took out the passbook hidden under the bottom plate.Sun Zhijun hasn't paid her a penny for almost two years. His little salary is not enough for drinking and playing cards.The water, electricity and gas at home have to be spent on everything, so she had to save as much as possible.But no matter how much I can save, I can't save much. For so many years, there are only more than 10,000 yuan in the passbook. This is the emergency money she kept in the bottom of the box. Every once in a while, she takes it out to have a look, but the more she reads, the more worried .She had suffered from having no money. When her mother was dying in the hospital, she was waiting for money to save her life, but she couldn't think of a way.Since then, she has been suffering from heart problems. Every few days, she always takes out the passbook to look at it, but no matter how she looks at it, there will be no extra zero in the end. Unhappily, she packed up the passbook and locked it, her eyes fell on the peaches she bought yesterday.The fluffy fresh peach is like a young girl with cardamom, with a fresh and sweet breath.In fact, she had stopped eating peaches for a long time, but yesterday, by a strange coincidence, she bought two catties of peaches.In the past, when she met Nie Yucheng, she was fascinated by ghosts, but until now, when she saw him, she would still lose her mind. "Look! Nie Yucheng!" When Nie Yucheng walked into the outpatient clinic, the little nurse next to him saw him and quickly pushed the arm of another little nurse, as if a movie fan saw an idol, all the little nurses turned their heads and saluted him together.He actually didn't notice that someone was looking at him, and went straight to the elevator.A group of young nurses felt relieved, and one said: "It is said that Dr. Nie is the most handsome doctor in this hospital, and it is true." The other said: "He is the most handsome doctor among single doctors, but it is a pity that Dr. Chang is married. , in fact, Dr. Chang is more handsome than Dr. Nie." "I don't think Dr. Chang is as handsome as Dr. Nie. Besides, Dr. Nie is taller than Dr. Chang. A tall man is called Yushu Linfeng. But Dr. Chang looks like Lu Yi, and he looks so handsome when he smiles. Dr. Nie doesn't like to talk very much, he is always rigid. A face, didn’t I have a classmate who was out of my mind? She said that she had never seen Dr. Nie smile, and she didn’t know if it was true.” "You have a classmate on your mind? Then why don't you hurry up and get close to the water. It is said that Dr. Nie doesn't have a girlfriend yet, so tell her to work hard to get this diamond king, how good it is!" "What's the use of being close to the water? The whole hospital knows that Dr. Nie's father is Nie Dongyuan. Do you know Nie Dongyuan? The chairman of a listed company earns more than he can count every day. I heard that their family even has a private jet. Diamond king and fifth, the carat is too big, who is worthy of ordinary people, let's see." The elevator stops at the fourth floor, where both the Cardiac Surgery and Thoracic Surgery are located.There are many patients waiting to be called in the hall, and the electronic screen keeps scrolling, announcing the order of registration.It's much noisier here than the inpatient department.Nie Yucheng seldom came to the outpatient clinic. Normally, every doctor had to be in the outpatient clinic three days a month, except for the director and deputy director of the department.However, Nie Yucheng had a lot of surgeries, and the queue was too full, so the director of the department said, "Don't make an outpatient appointment for Xiao Nie." No one in the department gossips, after all, surgery is more tiring than outpatient.When he first arrived at the hospital, although his colleagues treated him very politely, this politeness was somewhat alienated.A son from a rich family, returned from studying in the United States, with a double doctorate degree, insisted on working in a public hospital.Although they are one of the best hospitals in the country, most of the colleagues are worried, including Director Fang of the department, who is said to be angry with the dean and does not want him.But after a long time, everyone got to know each other, and it became better for Nie Yucheng.After all, he is skilled, caring to patients, and has no temper at all.It's not his fault that he has a rich chairman's father, so most of the colleagues in the Department of Cardiac Surgery have a good impression of him.Director Fang is even more fond of him. He takes him with him every time he consults. Everyone says that even the eccentric Director Fang likes him. Nie Yucheng really likes him. But the ones who like him the most are the little nurses in the hospital. Although he is not very talkative and rarely participates in the group activities of the hospital, his popularity has always been ranked first in the hospital's gossip list, and even the most approachable Gastroenterology doctors often come second.The little nurses love to study what kind of shoes Nie Yucheng is wearing, because when the doctor’s gown is put on, only the shoes are exposed. It is said that some people secretly took photos of his shoes with their mobile phones and sent them to the BBS inside the hospital. Dr. Li was looking at the radiography, and when he saw him coming in, he nodded and said hello: "I'm not sure, so I asked you to come and have a look." The film is obviously not from this hospital, and patients often bring the film and medical records to other hospitals, so Nie Yucheng didn't think too much about it. He looked at the film carefully, and then said, "Let the patient do another radiograph. Well, if you want to schedule surgery." Dr. Li said: "Patient's parents heard that our radiography is more than 1,000 more expensive than the original hospital, and they are not happy." Nie Yucheng glanced at the film again, it was clearly the heart of a child, and nowadays parents would like to go through fire and water for their children, this kind of parents is rare.So he asked, "Where is the patient?" "In the waiting room outside, I asked the nurse to call them in." Tan Jing never dreamed that she would see Nie Yucheng here, she was stupefied for a moment, Nie Yucheng obviously didn't expect it, so she was taken aback.Tan Jing sat down in a panic, and changed hands to let the child sit on her lap.Nie Yucheng looked at the medical records. The name and age on the cover of the medical records were filled in by the patient himself. He recognized Tan Jingjunxiu's handwriting.It reads: Sun Ping, six years old, male.Said to be a six-year-old child, but because he was too thin, he looked like a five-year-old at most.The hair was thin, yellow and brittle, so it was shaved very short.But they look very similar to Tan Jing, and they can tell at a glance that they are mother and son.The child probably has dark lips and obvious symptoms of cyanosis because of insufficient blood supply to the heart.But the eyes are dark, a pair of jewel-like eyes, a little timidly looking at the stranger in front of him, he turned his face away after a while, and whispered: "Mom." Tan Jing coaxed him: "Hey, we don't get injections." Dr. Li adjusted his glasses and said, "We still recommend doing another radiography. It seems that the condition of the blood vessels is not clear now. This radiography was done a year ago, and it can't be delayed until now. If it continues, there will be no surgery." chance." Tan Jing muttered: "I know." "If you know it, don't procrastinate." Dr. Li said, "There are risks in the operation, but the cure rate is also very high. You should go back and discuss it with the child's father. The earlier the operation, the better the effect. Don't delay." "Okay." Tan Jing lowered her eyes, "Thank you." As soon as they left, Dr. Li shook his head: "It's really a crime. You can tell at a glance that you don't have money for surgery. If you drag it on, the child will be finished." Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered, "Hey, why did you forget the radiography tape? Take it away." He hurriedly called the nurse, "Xiao Chen, hurry up and get the patient back, she forgot to take the tape." "I'll go." Nie Yucheng took the tape away, and went straight out of the consulting room.He glanced at the elevator, then turned and headed for the stairs.Sure enough, Tan Jing was walking down the stairs with her child in her arms. "You forgot your belt." Tan Jing didn't make a sound, put the child on the ground, then took the strap and stuffed it into the bag she was carrying, and picked up the child again. "Tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary stenosis, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy, tetralogy of Fallot is one of the most common congenital heart defects. The only treatment option is surgery to correct the deformity, Otherwise, you won’t be able to live past the age of twenty, and your son’s pulmonary artery stenosis is serious, so it’s hard to live past the age of ten.” Tan Jing raised her eyes and looked at him: "What do you want to say?" He was standing taller than her. He was much taller than her, so he could only see the top of her hair. The fluffy and dry hair was casually combed into a ponytail and tied behind her head with a rubber band.It's not that he didn't think that one day he would meet her again, and he also thought that one day she would become a mediocre woman.This is what it is now, mediocre almost boring, the ivory skin that once fascinated him is as dull as old plastic, the hair has long lost its luster, and her hand clutching the bag strap, the knuckles are thick, the skin It was so rough that it was far beyond her age—it used to be that she only wore a ring number nine, and it was almost heartbreaking to hold such slender and soft fingers in her hands. Now these hands were almost unrecognizable to him.Presumably a sickly child and an inconsiderate husband made her what she is today. He suddenly felt a kind of blissful hostility, almost sneered, and said word by word: "This is retribution!" She looked at him a little fixedly, and as if subconsciously, she hugged the child tightly.She didn't hear it, and she seemed to be in disbelief when she heard it, and asked in a murmur, "What did you say?" "I'm talking about your son's illness." He pointed at the child's cyanotic face and said happily, "His illness is your retribution." He thought she would say something, or even swear. He had seen some women swearing, and the hysterical appearance was disgusting.If she really cursed, he would feel extremely happy. But she said nothing.Those lacquer-like eyes, exactly like those of a child, were only quickly covered with a layer of mist, with tears in their eyes, and they still looked at him a little steadily, as if they didn't know him at all.After so many years, maybe they have already hated each other, wishing that the other party would not live anymore.He has a kind of joy after killing, like being on the operating table, removing the lesion and peeling off the tumor neatly.She used to be a tumor in his life, and now he can finally strip her clean. She only looked at him for a short moment with teary eyes, and then quickly lowered her head, probably because she was afraid that he would see her cry.She has always been so strong, she hugged the child, turned around and left. The corridor was not bright, and she walked to the dark bottom step by step, and could no longer see it. When he was about to leave work, Nie Yucheng received a call from Secretary Zhang, who said, "Mr. Nie would like to invite you to dinner." "I'm busy." Secretary Zhang has a good temper. If he has a bad temper, he can’t be Nie Dongyuan’s secretary. He smiled and said, “You’d better come to see Mr. Nie. He’s been very busy recently. .” The stalemate between father and son lasted for more than a year and a half. At first Nie Yucheng was a little angry, but now he doesn't even bother to get angry.Secretary Zhang kept politely inviting him, and he went.Of course, the appointment place is a high-end club, and from the outside all the way in, there is almost no one else to see except the waiters.After entering the private room, I saw Nie Dongyuan sitting alone at the table. Over the years, Nie Dongyuan has been pampered and respected. In his own business empire, he always said the same thing, no matter who he met, he always looked calm and arrogant.But seeing his son, he still seemed very happy: "How is it? What shall we have for dinner tonight?" "casual." Nie Dongyuan took the menu card to the waiter and said, "Arrange it." After dismissing the idlers and others, he looked at his son: "Why did you lose weight again?" "No." Nie Yucheng didn't even lift his eyelids, "Speak up if you have something to say, I know your time is precious." "You, no matter how old you are, you are still like a child." Nie Dongyuan poured a cup of tea for his son himself, and said, "You haven't been home for more than half a year, so you don't have to be angry with Dad, right?" Nie Yucheng didn't bother to answer, and kept flicking his phone. "You also know that I have high blood pressure and high blood lipids. Maybe one day when I close my eyes, I will never see you again." Nie Dongyuan seemed very sad, "You really won't forgive Dad?" "You never do anything wrong and don't need my forgiveness." Nie Dongyuan laughed, "Stubborn temper!" The waiter gently knocked on the door outside, the father and son stopped talking, and the dishes were served one after another, and the warm light reflected them, and they were all delicious. "Try this." Nie Dongyuan said, "Don't you like to eat lion's head, and you also say that the chef at home makes big meatballs? The chef here said that he is from Suzhou, so I asked you to come here today to taste his meatballs." How's the craft?" Nie Yucheng remained silent, the waiter had already brought over the porcelain cup, the braised lion head was very tasty, but he just put his teeth back into the bowl, without any appetite at all.Suddenly I heard Nie Dongyuan say: "You should also have a girlfriend. You are already thirty years old, and you are busy with surgery all day long. Although a man should put his career first, he can't even have a girlfriend for his career." Find one. If this continues, if I die one day, I won’t see you get married.” "I'm not interested in women." Nie Yucheng was indifferent, "You just think I like men." "Nonsense!" Nie Dongyuan's suppressed temper finally exploded, and he threw the small porcelain spoon in his hand on the bone plate with a "clang", "Aren't you just for that chat? It's been seven or eight years and you still look like you're going to die." The way I live. How did I give birth to a son like you? You are so obsessed with you! You think I don’t know what you’ve lived these past few years? The girl surnamed Tan has already married and had children, and you’re still here How can she be worthy of you as a lover? How can she be worthy of you, huh? " "It has nothing to do with her." “跟她没关系？”聂东远冷笑起来，“你是我儿子，你眉毛一动我就知道你想什么。跟她没关系，你这七八年过得跟和尚似的，连看都不看旁的女人一眼？跟她没关系，你学什么心外科？跟她没关系，你能口口声声跟我说，你对女人没兴趣？我看你是被她下了蛊，我真是想知道，姓谈的那丫头哪里就值得你迷成这样？” “真的跟她没关系。”聂宇晟却是一脸的厌倦，“你不用在这里乱猜疑，有合适的人我自然领回来给你看。” 聂东远又冷笑了一声：“这话从六七年前，你就说过了。你在国外没遇上合适的人，回国来，医院里，也没遇上合适的人。在你心里，全天下最合适你的就一个谈静。可惜她这会儿只怕早嫁了人，说不定连孩子都有好几岁了。” 聂宇晟慢慢地握紧拳头，聂东远扫了他一眼：“怎么？戳着你的痛处了？” 聂宇晟愤怒地紧闭着嘴，并不吭声。 “你死了那条心吧！”聂东远说，“天下好女人多的是，放开眼来挑一个，哪个不比她强。” “我吃饱了。”聂宇晟将餐巾往桌上一扔，“我要回医院上夜班。” 一直开车走上四环，才发现车窗没有关，风呼呼地灌进来，吹得两颊滚烫。他踩着油门，车子其实有巡航功能，可是浑浑噩噩，脑子中是一片空白。 有很多很多次，他都想过，如果一恍惚，会不会冲进对面车道，撞个粉身碎骨。 可是终究还是没有。在国外的时候，可以用课业麻痹自己，博士学位一念就是两个，做不完的试验，写不完的paper；回到国内来，可以用忙碌来麻痹自己，做不完的手术，排不完的会诊。可是见到谈静的那一刹那，所有的一切卷土重来，就像是海啸。隔得那样远，他也一眼认出来那是谈静。她穿着蛋糕店的制服，低着头在那里忙碌。生活将她磨砺成另外一个人，可是他仍旧一眼认出来，那是他的谈静。 是真的鬼迷心窍，才会走进去，那时候就像踩在云上，看着她，一分分地近了，更近了，近得触手可及。后来她抬起眼睛看他的时候，就像中间的这七八年，不曾过去。他心里一阵阵地发软，觉得自己都有点把持不住，想要伸手去碰触她的脸，看她是不是真的，真的就那样站在自己的面前。 她变了很多，可是又一点儿也没有变，就像是梦里的样子。 他曾经无数次地想过，再见了谈静，会是什么样的一种情形，想到最发狂的时候，就对自己说，不能再想了，可是这一天真的来临，却原来，亦不过如斯。 没有天崩地裂，没有排山倒海，原来她也只是一个活在世间的凡人。 原来，曾经那样深刻的爱，最后也只留下不可磨灭的仇恨。 连他自己都不知道，为什么要说那样刻薄的话，尤其对着一个无辜的孩子。 此刻才渐渐明白，原来是嫉妒。 嫉妒那个跟她结婚的男人。 嫉妒那个跟她生孩子的男人。 嫉妒得发了狂。 他几乎不能想像她跟别的人一起生活，他根本不能去想，只要这个念头一起，他就觉得自己要失控，有一种毁灭一切的冲动。这种冲动让他几乎同时也想毁掉自己，毁掉这个世界。 谈静。 谈静。 多么普通的两个字，可是刻在了心上，今生今世，再不能忘。
