the little things in life

It was already one o'clock in the night when Xu Xingzhi received the call. He felt a little flustered and had a bad premonition.

The phone number was unfamiliar, and he heard the person inside ask him in accented English if he was Mr. Xu Xingzhi.

He replied, "Yes, what's the matter?"

The other end of the phone said, "Do you know Mr. Lin Chuyuan?"

He quickly replied: "Yes, may I ask what happened to him?" His heart began to pound.

There was a new person on the other end of the phone, who should be a Chinese, she said: "Xu Xingzhi, I am Teacher Liang, Lin Chuyuan is in City C of country W, and now something is wrong with his body, he asked us to tell you, And please don't disturb his mother, if possible, can you come to City C to see him?"

"What's the problem, why can't he call me directly?" Xu Xingzhi jumped up from the bed directly.

"Calm down first, it's inconvenient to talk on the phone, can you come?" Teacher Liang said.

"I'll book the nearest flight right away. But you want to tell me what's wrong with him?" Xu Xingzhi tried his best to control his trembling body, trying not to sound so excited.

"I can tell you that he is safe for the time being, let's talk about other meetings! You must come here as soon as possible! Take care!" Teacher Liang couldn't bear to continue, she hung up the phone.

Xu Xingzhi immediately booked a plane ticket. Regardless of the fact that it was already late at night, he called the hospital to ask for leave.I quickly packed my luggage and went to the airport.

Xu Xingzhi was thinking along the way, what's wrong? What is "something wrong with the body"?What will happen to Lin Chuyuan? Fighting and fighting will definitely not happen with Lin Chuyuan's character.Was it because of a medical dispute that the patient or family member was injured?I got sick?What's wrong?He didn't dare to think deeply, he was terribly afraid.The whole person fell into an extremely uneasy mood.This nearly [-]-hour flight was the most painful and torturous one that Xu Xingzhi had ever sat in in his life.

When he rushed to the hospital, he saw a 30-year-old lady waiting for him at the hospital gate. "Teacher Liang, you are Teacher Liang!" He stepped forward to shake hands with Teacher Liang, "Where is Lin Chuyuan?"

"Are you Xiao Xu? You don't look very well. Drink some water first." Liang Sujuan looked at him with unshaven beard, messy hair, bloodshot eyes, and somewhat slack eyes, and was frightened. jumped.

"I want to see Lin Chuyuan, I want to see him." The flustered Xu Xingzhi no longer cared about his due courtesy.

"Come with me!" Teacher Liang took him to the door of the isolation ward of the ICU.Through the glass, Xu Xingzhi saw Lin Chuyuan lying on the bed with a non-invasive ventilator, a huge mask was buckled on his face, and his facial features could hardly be seen clearly.Xu Xingzhi couldn't believe the scene in front of him. His legs softened and he knelt on the ground at the door of the ward. The string that had been tense in his mind snapped.The whole body was exhausted, unable to speak a word, and could not shed tears.What he saw was worse than any idea he had imagined on the road.Teacher Liang quickly went to help him. Xu Xingzhi was about 1.8 meters tall, and Teacher Liang couldn't help him no matter what.

"What's wrong with him, why is it like this?" Xu Xingzhi sat on the ground for a long time before he squeezed out this sentence.

The medical staff helped him up and sat him in the family rest area. "Xiao Xu, please calm down first. A patient he took care of before was confirmed to be infected with A virus. After we found out, we quickly found Lin Chuyuan and carried out isolation and symptomatic treatment. At that time, he had already developed a virus infection. The early symptoms of the disease. He asked us to contact you as soon as he knew about it." Teacher Liang said, shedding tears: "It's only been a few days, I didn't expect the disease to progress so quickly."

"I want to see Lin Chuyuan's doctor in charge." Xu Xingzhi said this with the last sliver of reason in his heart.

Teacher Liang took him to DR.S's office. DR.S expressed his regret. He explained his illness to Xu Xingzhi, and then told Xu Xingzhi: "You are also a doctor. You should know what the concept of A virus infection is. We can There are very limited things to do, I hope you can understand." These familiar words seem to have been said by Xu Xingzhi to the patient's family, but at this time, he is the one who listened to these words, and his mood is very different. Say there is no mood at all.

"Can I go in and see him?" He couldn't imagine that he came from thousands of miles away, but he couldn't get close to or touch his longing lover.

"Virus A is highly contagious, Dr. Xu, you should understand." DR.S said.

Xu Xingzhi returned to the door of the ward in a daze. He looked at Lin Chuyuan's ECG monitoring, and his vital signs were still stable.He slid down against the window edge of the ward and sat slumped on the ground.

"Xiao Xu, if you go on like this, there's no way out. You should eat something and rest!" Teacher Liang was very distressed when he saw his distraught appearance.

"Ms. Liang, can you buy me something to eat, I want to eat here, it's closer to him." Xu Xingzhi had almost no strength to speak: "I'm sorry for your inconvenience!"

Teacher Liang brought a simple lunch box and motioned him to get up and sit outside to eat, while Xu Xingzhi sat on the ground and refused to move.

"After dinner, go to the hotel and take a rest, I've already reserved a room for you," Teacher Liang said.

"No need, I want to stay with him here." Xu Xingzhi said, he picked up the rice mechanically, put the food in his mouth and swallowed it indiscriminately.

"Xiao Xu, Xiao Lin has something to give you, but you must promise me to go to the hotel to rest for a night before I can give it to you." Teacher Liang saw how stubborn he was, so he had no choice but to make a bad move.

Xu Xingzhi dragged his corpse-like body back to the hotel under Teacher Liang's persuasion.He was very tired both mentally and physically. Rather than falling asleep, he passed out on a hotel bed overnight.

When he woke up the next morning, he felt as if he had had a nightmare. He couldn't believe that his lover, who had called him on the phone a few days ago, was now lying on the hospital bed dying, with his life hanging by a thread.He regretted, regretted how much time was wasted in the cold war with Lin Chuyuan.He regretted that he was busy with work and didn't get along well. He regretted that he didn't even go to see Lin Chuyuan off on the day he left.Sometimes we think too much, but we don't cherish the fleeting time in front of us.

Xu Xingzhi got the notebook that Lin Chuyuan left for him.He opened the notebook, and the familiar handwriting on it read:

Do it, don't feel sad or hurt yourself for me.Life and death are fate. After I leave, I hope you can treat my mother well and take care of your health. I am just a small thing in your life. Please forget me and live a good life.
