look back again

Chapter 28

"Hey, Guoqiang, it's really not that I don't want to talk about it. Your son is really too introverted. When I found out that he self-harmed, it had happened several times. Fortunately, he seemed to have a sense of proportion. It hurt the main artery." On the other end of the phone was Lin Guoqiang's friend who let Lin Chen go to the United States after sending Lin Chen abroad. He was a good friend of Lin Guoqiang in high school, and he has been settling in the United States since then, which is why Lin Guoqiang was so relieved to let Lin Chen go to the United States.

"I really want to tell you, but Lin Chen begged me not to tell you, and promised me that he would go to the hospital for medical treatment and would not do anything to hurt himself again. Later, Lin Chen did return to normal, and I was afraid that you would worry , so I have been helping Lin Chen to hide it, what's the matter, is he sick again."

"I don't know the details, but I can mail you Lin Chen's case here."

Lin Guoqiang put down the phone and sighed deeply. He had never done anything that he regretted in his life, but at this moment, he deeply regretted that he should have treated Lin Chen so harshly at the beginning, and should not have insisted on going his own way. He sent Lin Chen to an unaccompanied place. He thought that what he gave Lin Chen was already the best, but he didn't expect that all he gave was harm.He used his ideas to hurt Lin Chen without knowing it. What was his cowardly son thinking when he scratched himself?He didn't know, and couldn't understand, but he held his wife's hand tightly, as if this could make him persevere.

It wasn't until then that he realized that it wasn't that he didn't love his son, but that he didn't know how to express it. The father and son really didn't communicate too much.

When they arrived at the hospital, they found that Lin Chen had indeed fallen asleep as Lu Yuanhang said. Apart from his pale complexion, there were no other injuries visible, and their hearts that were hanging in the air were relieved.Mother Lin took a cautious look at Lu Yuanhang.

"Why don't we stay here, and you go to the doctor to get some medicine first." She knew that Lin Guoqiang's attack must be serious, and seeing his frown that would involve the wound in every move, she knew that if she couldn't bear it No, he won't show it.

Lu Yuanhang was indeed in severe pain. Lin Guoqiang almost hit him on the back. Whenever he moved, he would feel the pain. If it wasn't in front of Lin Chen's parents, he could hardly control it. Hold your expression down.Thinking that he still needs energy to take care of Lin Chen, so Lu Yuanhang didn't refuse, turned and walked to the emergency room.

When Lu Yuanhang came back, Lin Guoqiang and the others had already seen Lin Chen and asked the doctor about his condition. They saw the two of them sitting in the corridor of the inpatient ward without speaking.

"Uncle and aunt, it's already very late today, why don't I send you back, you can come back tomorrow." Lu Yuanhang said.

"You, you should go and have a good rest." Lin's mother was soft-hearted, because when Lu Yuanhang walked in, there was an obvious smell of medicine. Although the doctor must have prescribed the medicine, even if his body was hard, he couldn't help it. toss.

"No, I just asked the doctor to give me an extra bed next to me so I can have a rest. If you don't want to go back, I have opened a room in the hotel next to me, and you can also go to have a rest."

Mother Lin couldn't make up her mind, and subconsciously turned her gaze to Lin Guoqiang, only to see that Lin Guoqiang hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"Let's go back first and come back tomorrow morning."

"I'll see you off." Lu Yuanhang immediately wanted to follow.

"No need," Lin Guoqiang stopped Lu Yuanhang with his eyes. He seemed a bit embarrassed to speak, but he continued.

"You keep it." Then she walked out with Mother Lin.

You keep it, did you get their approval?In a trance, Lu Yuanhang suddenly forgot what to say, just stared blankly at the backs of the two of them, his whole body seemed to be like a pause button being pressed, joy mixed with pain surged up in his head, could he With the permission of Lin Chen's parents, although he had fantasized about it, he never imagined that it would be so easy, just like a dream.

Lu Yuanhang pressed hard on his wound, the pain, it seems that it is not fake, he passed the most difficult step towards Lin Chen inexplicably, could it be that God has mercy, seeing him waited so long and finally Is it his turn to roll over?

I really want to wake Lin Chen up now and share this good news with him, but seeing Lin Chen's peaceful sleeping face, all the impulses were submerged again, Lu Yuanhang showed a silly smile, and the first time Once, I felt that being beaten was such a happy thing. If I knew that if I was beaten, I would be able to pass the level of Lin Chen's parents, why did I go so early.As everyone knows, if it wasn't for Lin Chen's illness, even if he was beaten to death, Lin Guoqiang would not let go.

On the way back, Mother Lin held her husband's hand worriedly, and pressed it silently.

Lin Guoqiang didn't speak either, but held her hand backwards with his other hand.

Let it be like this, how can it be like this, children are the debts of their parents, is it true that they really have to watch Lin Chen die of depression before giving up?Forget it, forget it...

The next day, Lu Yuanhang was woken up by the pain. Last night, in order to sleep better, he asked the nurse for some painkillers before falling asleep. He didn't expect the effect of the medicine to wear off too quickly. Woke up with a sweaty head.

"Hmm..." Lu Yuanhang sat up with difficulty, putting his hands on his shoulders, so as not to fail to do it all at once.This feeling is so simple, Lu Yuanhang felt that this half of his body seemed to be paralyzed, and he couldn't use any strength. Not to mention, the bones of his body were simply stiff, so why don't he ask for a painkiller to take? .

Lu Yuanhang thought wildly, rubbing his shoulder carefully.

"You, what's wrong with you?"

In fact, Lu Yuanhang had already made a noise when he was about to wake up. Lin Chen woke up early in the morning because he went to bed early last night. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Yuanhang sleeping beside him. On the bed, he was too tall, sleeping on the small bed with his feet exposed, and lying curled up, sweat was visible to the naked eye, it was very painful to think about it.

Maybe it was because the hospital was still quiet early in the morning, maybe it was because the ray of light coming in from outside was too gentle, softening the atmosphere between the two of them, Lin Chen couldn't help it anymore, and asked.

"You're awake, did I wake you up?" Lu Yuanhang didn't want to tell Lin Chen the reason, so he put down his hand on his shoulder and smiled at Lin Chen.

"Are you hurt?"

"No, the bed is too small, it's just a stiff neck, it's okay." Lu Yuanhang said perfunctorily, fearing that Lin Chen would not believe it, he lavishly did chest expansion exercises in front of him, and he almost screamed out from the pain in his heart.

Lu Yuanhang finally understood that pretending to be aggressive would kill people.

"I, I'll go and buy you some breakfast, you, you wait for me." Then he ran away.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, he passed away. Those movements just now were so painful that he almost wanted to cry.

But he didn't buy breakfast in the end, because as soon as he walked out of the hospital, he met Lin's mother who came to deliver breakfast.

"Auntie, why are you so early." Lin's mother had obvious dark circles on her face, and it could be seen that she didn't rest well even after she went back.Lu Yuanhang felt a little guilty when he thought about it.

"Let me get it." Lu Yuanhang didn't know how to comfort her, so he reached out to take the food box from Mother Lin's hand.

"No, you're still hurt, let me do it." Mother Lin looked at the man standing in front of her with low eyebrows as if he had made a mistake, and her heart was also in a mess.For the sake of her son, this tall man stood in front of his little woman, as if he was a little shorter.

While Lu Yuanhang was leaving, Lin Chen got up and took a brief wash. His hands and feet were still a little weak, but at least he had recovered a little, and his throat didn't hurt so much anymore.

Lin Chen slowly walked back to the hospital bed, his thoughts unconsciously turned to Lu Yuanhang, how can he stop worrying about himself later?Also, he was secretive and didn't know what he was hiding.

Before he could sit on the bed, the door behind him opened. Have you bought breakfast so quickly?Lin Chen turned around and saw his mother.

"Mom..." Lin Chen was completely unprepared to see his mother now, he would never have thought that his mother would appear in front of his hospital bed with Lu Yuanhang, he was completely stunned.

"Chenchen, Chenchen..."

Lin's mother also sobbed all of a sudden. It was not Lin Chen's sleeping face that she saw last night, but his son standing in front of her alive. The light from outside covered him through the window, giving him The body was shrouded in a layer of bright light, but the dazzling halo could not stop Mother Lin from seeing his son's thin body under the hospital gown.

Lin's mother walked up and held Lin Chen's wrist in a vain manner, and pressed his palm directly to her heart. She had never paid attention to Lin Chen's wrist. She was simply not a competent mother. After falling down, she has always known that Lin Chen has had a hard time in the past few years, she has always known it.

Lin Chen seemed to have sensed something, and looked at Lu Yuanhang in confusion. Lu Yuanhang didn't speak, but smiled at him. This smile expressed everything, and it must be what Lu Yuanhang said.

"Mom, it's all my fault."

Lin Chen was most afraid of his mother's tears. He wanted to withdraw his hand and cover the wound, but his mother refused to let go, but she cried even harder. He could only comfort her anxiously.

"Mom, I'm like this because I'm sick. You know, I've been depressed."

"However, it was we who drove you out of the house when you were most helpless. It was I who was incompetent and unable to protect you, and made you suffer all kinds of grievances outside. It was me who was so useless as a mother."

"No, Mom, no, it's because I'm too weak and useless."

Lin Chen's eyes were also wet. He finally stopped struggling and was hugged tightly by his mother. This thin woman has never lost her temper in her life, never said a word loudly, but now she is crying bitterly. , and the source of all this is because of her useless son.

"I'm sorry Mom, I'm sorry."
