When Zhang Lan heard that I rejected Chu Rui, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Maybe in Zhang Lan's eyes, Chu Rui is the top man I can touch. During the few months that I have been friends with her, Zhang Lan knows something about my situation.

The moment I picked up the phone, Chu Rui looked out the window with an awkward expression.

"Hello..." My voice sounded a little weak.

"I heard from your friend that you had surgery. Sorry, I just had an important meeting and my phone was muted." Su Beicheng apologized in a low voice: "Why are you in such a hurry to have surgery?"

"The doctor recommended this operation. Otherwise, it would be too painful and I couldn't bear it." I was not angry that Su Beicheng didn't come because I never counted on him.

"How are you doing now? Do you need me to come over?" Su Beicheng asked in a low voice.

"No need, I asked a friend to help me. The operation is already done, and the next step is just postoperative observation." I know it is not convenient for Su Beicheng to come here. He has just taken office. If his love affair is reported, it will not be good for his development.

"Jingjing, I have transferred some money to you. You should have a good rest. I will pick you up when you are discharged from the hospital." Su Beicheng said guiltily.

I hummed softly, "Then I'll hang up first. I'm a little tired."

"Okay." Su Beicheng was waiting for me to hang up the phone, so I hung up directly.

Chu Rui clenched his fists angrily and said, "Isn't he going to come over? See, I knew that people like him can't give you a sense of security. When you need him the most, he is a coward."

I accidentally pulled the wound and shuddered in pain. I took a deep breath and said, "I didn't want him to come. It suits me perfectly that he can't come."

"You are just stupid..." Chu Rui has always been hostile to Su Beicheng.

I said bitterly, "Okay, let's not argue about this. I'm really grateful that you can come. Also, thank you uncle for helping me arrange a bed."

Chu Rui then returned to his serious look: "It was mainly my uncle who helped you. I just made a phone call for you."

“That requires some connection.” I said with a chuckle.

My words seemed to have touched Chu Rui's sore spot, and he looked at me with a hint of helplessness.

Although Su Beicheng cannot be with me all the time, his relationship is very strong, and Chu Rui knows this very well.

Zhang Lan was standing next to me, listening to my gossip with his ears perked up, and looking at me with eyes full of curiosity.

That night, Chu Rui insisted that he stay here with me, and Zhang Lan left.

The two of us stared at each other.

Chu Rui's personality is still that of a lively and active big boy. He would run to the nurse's station to chat, and then run to talk to his uncle.

I no longer have injections. Lying on the hospital bed, watching the sky gradually sinking outside the window, I feel more emotional.

If I decide not to get married in the future, I can actually have a child. When you are sick, your heart becomes fragile and you will feel fear about the future.

So, I may not want a man, but I must have a child. And this time, it must be born from my belly and be connected to me by blood.

Of course, the child’s genes are also very important. I can’t find an ordinary man to have a child. If I want to have a child, I want to have a child with filial piety engraved in his genes.

For some reason, when the word "filial piety" flashed through my mind, the way Su Beicheng got along with his grandmother seemed a little strange to me.

Su Beicheng is not only capable, but he also took care of his grandmother on his own for three years despite his busy schedule, and the old lady looked very energetic.

However, I don't have the courage to secretly give birth to a child with Su Beicheng.

Once he finds out, not only will the child belong to him, but I may not be able to escape from his clutches.

A chill crept through my body, waking me up instantly.

It seems that I have to consider the matter of children later. For now, I should take good care of my health and continue to work hard.

In the early morning, Chu Rui fell asleep on the small bed next to me with his arms and legs spread out. I had just taken a nap, but because the wound was a little painful, I couldn't sleep anymore.

In addition, the nurses hope that I can get out of bed and move around more often. They are worried about intestinal adhesions, which will have more serious consequences.

A person who gives up even on feelings will never give up on life easily.

So, I didn't wake up Chu Rui, but found various angles and got out of bed quietly.

I was wearing a loose hospital gown, my hair was tied up casually, and even my face was lightly made up, which showed how sudden this surgery was.

I moved step by step to the door, and seeing that the door of the ward was open, I decided to go out and take a look.

I walked slowly forward along the corridor.

Suddenly, I heard crying from the ward next to me, which scared me. Then, I saw Ji Mu and several doctors rushing over.

When Ji Mu passed by me, he brought up a gust of wind, and I couldn't help but look at him.

I don't know if he recognized me, but when I saw him rushing in to rescue the patient, his eyes were calm and composed. His determination to fight against death was extremely charming in my eyes.

I felt like I must be sick and stupid. Even when I was so weak, my heart was still beating restlessly.

A cart passed by me, and I heard Ji Mu's voice: "The trachea must be cut open, otherwise he will die. Arrange the operation quickly."

I leaned against the wall and watched this group of people rushing to the operating room. The patient's family members were crying all the way with weak legs. The scene of separation of life and death was despairing.

The corridor returned to silence and I could hear my own breathing becoming faster.

When we think about human life, it seems tenacious, but it is actually fragile. A life can be alive and kicking one moment and die the next.

What is the regret of life?

What do people think about in their final moments?

How should we write about the subject of life so as not to leave any regrets?

Should you embrace it passionately, indulge yourself recklessly, or settle down, find a way to be happy, and then take your time?

I leaned against the wall, feeling panicky inside, but when I thought of the scene of Ji Mu saving people just now, I felt warm in my heart.

I returned to the room and Chu Rui changed his position and continued to sleep. It’s good to be young and have a very high quality of sleep.

Early in the morning, I was awakened by the nurse's voice. When I opened my eyes, I found a circle of people surrounding my bed.

The leader was actually Ji Mu. He brought a group of interns and stood around my bed. My head was buzzing.

Chu Rui next to him stared at Ji Mu with a dark face, as if he was dissatisfied with why he brought so many people to see me.

"Ms. Yin, Dr. Ji needs to use your condition as a medical record to explain your condition to this group of new interns. Please cooperate for a moment." The nurse told me gently.

Only then did I realize that I had become a little monkey in the zoo, for people to watch.

Ji Mu bent down, and his fingers touched my skin. The heat from his fingertips made me tremble slightly.
