The hand resting on the wrist is not as rough and old as before. It is much younger, but there are still traces of wind and frost, and it is as hot as a new flame.

Li Pei turned his head, looked into Nie Xunqiu's eyes calmly and indifferently, and then slowly pulled his hand away.

That hand was like a lock, with the buckle on, it couldn't be broken by brute force, but because the person trapped was Li Pei, Nie Xunqiu was willing to let him go because he was afraid that the strap would hurt him.

Li Pei didn't speak, but his eyes were enough to give the answer.

——Why do you think I should agree?

Why do you think I still love you?

The eyes had no shape, but they were as sharp as a thin needle, piercing into the bones along the finger joints, and even the heart trembled with pain.

He watched Li Pei leave the small gazebo, throw away the empty mineral water bottle, and start running in the original direction again, as if throwing him away.If they don't stop to have this conversation, the best way is to let each other pass each other, not even needing a nod, and run counter to each other.

Nie Xunqiu stood up, feeling his legs were a little numb. He walked out of the gazebo and saw that Li Pei's figure was getting smaller and smaller, as if he had forgotten the distance he should run, he turned around and followed slowly and distantly. Behind Li Pei.

A little far away, the sound of Li Pei's breathing seemed to be wrapped in the wind, and the faint fragrance of his hair.

In fact, he couldn't hear or smell it, but because he wanted to get close to him too eagerly, he went to him first, and sent back everything he wanted to listen to.

Nie Xunqiu closed his eyes, felt that Li Pei's footsteps had become chaotic and stopped suddenly, a strong and ominous premonition rushed into his brain, he opened his eyes suddenly, and found that the person not far away had fallen Down.

"Xiao Pei!"

In the past, at such a moment, he lost Li Pei forever.

At that time, he seemed to be watching with cold eyes, as if falling into an abyss, unable to move.

In fact, he just didn't have the courage to rush forward and hug him.

Nie Xunqiu rushed to Li Pei's body, not daring to act rashly. He calmed down, took out his mobile phone and called for emergency treatment, and described the patient's condition and location to the other end of the phone. The symptoms were not obvious, so he lay the person on his back and raised his feet to ensure the blood supply to the brain. About 30 seconds later, Li Pei woke up.

He squinted his eyes, had difficulty breathing, and looked a little distracted and confused, as if he was asking what's wrong.

"Don't rush to get up," Nie Xunqiu said in a hoarse voice, "First aid will come right away, don't be afraid, Xiao Pei."

Li Pei moved his fingers and touched Nie Xunqiu's arm, as if grabbing a strong thick rope, so that he would not be swept away by the turbulent undercurrent.He opened his mouth but failed to make a sound. Nie Xunqiu put his ear close to Li Pei's lips, and the heat scratched his eardrum. In the tingling, he heard clearly what Li Pei was going to say:

"It hurts..."

There was a roar in Nie Xunqiu's head, and he quickly held Li Pei's hand, trying his best to restrain his panic: "You will be fine."

There is nothing wrong with you.

Please.

Then came the doctor.Nie Xunqiu has a specialization in surgery, and Nie Xunqiu understands anesthesia. For sudden fainting like this, it is necessary to rely on examination to find the cause.Jiang Weiping is an excellent cardiac surgeon, young and promising, and well-known in the industry. He immediately chose to seek help from her hospital because she knew Li Pei's medical history.

After being admitted to the hospital, Nie Xunqiu notified Li Yan on Li Pei's mobile phone.

Nie Xunqiu spoke succinctly and explained the current situation in one sentence. The sleepy man immediately frowned, put on his clothes and hurried over.

"How is Xiao Pei?" Li Yan came very quickly. His hair was short and he didn't need to take care of it, but the shirt on his body was a little wrinkled. Obviously, he didn't have time to find a new one, so he changed into the clothes from the day before, "Is it serious?"

"I just finished the electrocardiogram, and I'm doing an echocardiogram," Nie Xunqiu said, "There should be a few more tests."

Li Yan's heart twitched, and a little annoyance flashed in his eyes: "Xiao Pei was admitted to the hospital once because of heart palpitations and chest pain when he was young. At that time, the doctor diagnosed it as viral myocarditis. It’s all small, why did I forget to ask.”

Nie Xunqiu heard the undertones in Li Yan's words, and was surprised that Li Yan could stand with him peacefully: "It seems that Xiao Pei has confessed his situation to you."

"As an older brother, how can you not notice his difference?" Li Yan rubbed his face, "Although I don't know why you sent him here, thank you for handling it properly. Sister Ping knows Xiaopei's previous situation. , Maybe the result will be different later.”

"It's what I should do."

Li's acting was too generous, with a sense of proportion, which made Nie Xunqiu feel ashamed.

Such a person who could make him feel kind and gentle with two or three words, but he killed him in his previous life, which caused Li Pei to lose his brother forever, depriving that person of many years of happiness.

He began to thank fate very much, not only for bringing Li Pei here, but also for making Li Yan in this world still alive, having a beautiful family, and loving Li Pei very much.

——That was something that he once destroyed with his own hands and could never be given.

After a round of inspections, the two of them were too anxious to wait, Li Yan didn't know how to smoke, and couldn't find anything to divert his attention from, so he leaned against the wall and asked in a low voice, "Have you and Xiao Pei ever been together? "

Together.

They used to be together.

Nie Xunqiu shook his head: "I didn't treat him well. It turned out that I didn't see my own heart clearly, so I failed him and killed him."

Li Yan guessed all of these things.

"I don't know much about Xiaopei's personal affairs. I don't understand what you said. I don't know what caused you to go astray. In fact, it doesn't feel like you don't understand good and evil, otherwise you would You won’t be extending a helping hand to people in post-war countries, right? There are many hypocritical acts, but that’s not for show, let alone Xiaopei was only on January [-]st..." Li Yan paused, feeling that "rebirth" The two words are too awkward, so I changed the wording, "Come here, you won't know about this in advance, and he can't see it, so I put it down to your heartfelt desire to help others. I'm not that Li Yan, I can't forgive you for him, but I won't intentionally interfere with your relationship as an obstacle, so you don't have to feel ashamed of me. Xiaopei is a child with a soft heart, for example? Cats, usually don't feel that How well-behaved he is, it is really hard to say when he loses his temper, he can only be used to it. For example, cats are afraid of water, but they will jump up and scratch out the door when you are in the bath because they are afraid that you will be drowned. If he has a small dried fish and a small fur ball, he will give you all of them. Such a good boy, don’t you treat him well If you want to hurt him, do you think you are stupid?"

Nie Xunqiu stood there in a daze, his shoulders slumped as if his strength had been relieved, he pursed his lips, unable to speak, but felt something break through his eye sockets, and two lines of tears burned on his cheeks.

He was not in a hurry to cover up, and he didn't raise his hand to wipe away the tears.Thinking of the night when the truth came to light, Li Pei was like this too, his eyes widened and tears silently shed, falling on his hands and branding him on his heart.

Yes, he is too stupid.

How could he feel that those sweet and gentle eyes were all taken for granted.

"That's a little too much..." Li Yan saw this man who was stronger than himself crying, but felt a little uncomfortable, "My attitude is to support Xiaopei's choice, of course, on the premise that the same mistakes will not be repeated. If you like him , love him, don't just talk about it, feel in your heart, tolerate and respect everything about him, and become a better person for him, but if it's just guilt, I advise you to go as far as you can, my My younger brother is pampered by me, and I don't need anything."

"No, not guilt," Nie Xunqiu quickly denied, "I love Li Pei for many, many years."

During the long years unknown to everyone, he missed Li Pei alone for a long, long time.

It was all by chance that they could meet again.

After waiting for a while, Ji Changqing rushed over with Li Cong, and Jiang Weiping just got the result and explained to the waiting people.

"Now we should be able to make a diagnosis," Jiang Weiping looked at Li Pei's chest X-ray and echocardiogram, and pointed to the light-transmitting area that shouldn't be there, and the missing area on the other picture. "Originally, thoracoscopy would be more direct. But that technology was popularized not long ago, and I didn’t do much, and I didn’t use the knife on Xiaopei. The current film is also quite clear, Xiaopei’s pericardial defect should be congenital, and there is no special clinical manifestation of this kind of defect, which is relatively rare. , The previous misdiagnosis was also normal. I heard from Dr. Nie that when he went for a run today, the wall of the left ventricle prolapsed during strenuous exercise, and the heart was incarcerated, which is why he fainted. Simply put, he was stuck. What needs to be done now It is the operation to expand the defect and relieve the incarceration.”

Dr. Jiang's words were easy to understand, and everyone except Li Cong seemed to understand. Li Yan asked, "Does it mean to expand the gap? Is it difficult? Is there any risk?"

"It can be understood in this way. What you are asking, no surgery is zero risk," Jiang Weiping said, "It's just that compared to other heart abnormalities, Xiaopei's treatment plan is relatively simple, don't worry, Li Yan, although this case Less, but not without, there is experience to learn from, and the recovery will be very fast. Follow-up will always be followed up, I have to arrange surgery, make an appointment with the anesthetist, and there are still many things to be confirmed before the operation."

anesthesiologist...

Jiang Weiping's eyeballs moved, and she said: "A good anesthesiologist can also reduce the risk, Dr. Nie, do you want to cooperate once?"

Nie Xunqiu hesitated: "I don't have a license yet."

"It seems that except for Beijing, there is no such requirement for foreign doctors for the time being, otherwise your hospital will not want you," Jiang Weiping said, "Experience and resume will not lie, so it is decided, this is the only time to accept private work, Remember to keep it confidential. I will confirm the operation plan, contact the assistants, equipment, and the roving nurse, and the time will be as soon as possible. You just follow the procedure and do the pre-operative evaluation."

If Dr. Jiang knew about the entanglement between him and Li Pei, maybe he wouldn't hand Li Pei over to him so reassuringly.

Who knows if he will suddenly go crazy?

Jiang Weiping didn't know what Nie Xunqiu was thinking. She had observed the surgery performed by Nie Xunqiu. From the perspective of anesthesia, Nie Xunqiu's professionalism was impeccable, and any surgeon could rest assured. The person who cooperates with him—how do you say that, the anesthesiologist saves life, and the surgeon treats the disease.

"Come here, Li Yan, let me tell you the specifics..."

Li Yan's family was left behind by Jiang Weiping, and Nie Xunqiu went to Li Pei's ward alone.

The man woke up and lay quietly on the bed. When he heard the knock on the door, he didn't have the energy to respond.

Nie Xunqiu pushed the door open and came in, and saw Li Pei looking out the window, a small piece was cut out of the sunny sunlight through the window, and fell gently on his chest.

His footsteps were heavy, and Li Pei finally turned his head away. Seeing that it was him, he said lightly:

"You said, if I die again this time, where else will I go?"
