sneak peek

When Mo Wang regained consciousness, he found himself sitting in a hospital corridor.His head was throbbing, and he didn't realize what happened for a while.After the headache passed, the memory came back bit by bit.

He looked down at himself, the dirty clothes on his body had been changed, and the wounds were all bandaged.Jia De and Li Zi sat across from him, sleeping with their heads tilted.

He was a little confused, how did we come to the hospital, why are we sitting here?

He tried hard to recall that the last thing he could remember was being locked up by Nian and forced to play games.And then...then finally found Gu, Gu was shot, and we fell into an empty room.And then... what happened next?Can't remember.It seems that the "instruction" came into effect at that time.What happened?How long has it been now?Did they get us out?

Mo Wang looked around, and finally found a room not far away with the words "in operation" lit up.

He stood up abruptly and walked forward involuntarily, is it Gu?Is it Gu?Gu was shot and is undergoing surgery?What's the matter now?

Suddenly someone grabbed him from behind. Looking back, it was Meng Ning. She had big dark circles and looked haggard. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she had clearly cried hard.

"Gu, what happened to Gu? Where is he? How did you find us? I..."

"Sit down first," Meng Ning made a "shh" gesture, "Be quiet in the hospital."

Mo Wang lowered his voice, "What happened?"

"Boss... a few hours ago, when we found you, you were walking alone in the wilderness. You had the 'command' at that time, and we couldn't communicate, and you were in a daze. of."

"Only I came out by myself? Then?"

"Then the abandoned factory not far from us...exploded." Meng Ning said cautiously.

The word exploded exploded in Mo Wang's mind, and he seemed to look at Meng Ning unresponsively, "Exploded? What do you mean?"

Meng Ning held Mo Wang's hand, "We are still not sure how the explosion happened. We rushed to the scene, and half of the factory building collapsed."

"Where's Gu?! What's going on with Gu?!" Mo Wang couldn't help but raise his voice, waking Jia De and Li Zi awake.

Meng Ning's eyes drifted to the operation door behind Mo Wang, and her voice was a little choked, "The boss is in there for rescue. Don't worry, he is usually alive and kicking, and he will definitely survive."

Jia De nodded aside, "His condition is not the worst, after the operation, he will be fine."

Mo Wang didn't speak, but he was a little dazed and opened the operation door, and then buried his face in his palms, tears streaming down his face.

Meng Ning patted him on the shoulder, "Don't cry, don't cry, Boss is fine, your eyes are swollen from crying, how will you see Boss later?"

"He let me go." Mo Wang said without beginning and end.

"what?"

"I remembered. Maybe it's because I took the blocker. I remembered the last conversation I had with Gu. We were trapped. Someone had to hold the switch inside to open the exit. He asked me to Go, let me leave him, and he stays in the factory by himself. Then I go, and I go without looking back."

Everyone listened, you looked at me, I looked at you, I didn't know what to say, after a long silence, Jiade said, "You were controlled by 'commands' at that time, you can do whatever he says, you don't have to Guilty."

Li Zi echoed, "Nian is the culprit in this matter, and it has nothing to do with you."

Mo Wang understands the truth, but how can he live with it in his heart?He blamed himself, if he hadn't been so careless and read the 'instruction' into his mouth, when he had to choose between the two, he would definitely have chosen to stay and let Gu go first.At the same time, he also complained about Gu Yexi, how could he be so cruel, make such a cruel choice without realizing it, and let himself escape alone to survive.

"He was shot, and there are so many wounds on his body, I should have left him after he left..." Mo Wang muttered to himself.

"Do you think it's possible that Gu would let you stay and run away? If he did, would he still be Gu?" Gard asked.

Mo Wang shook his head, he didn't want to answer, he knew it was impossible for Gu to do this, but he would rather Gu do it.

"The operation should still be going on for a while. What you should do now is to take a good rest, go home and pack up daily necessities, clothes and so on for Gu. After the operation is over, you can take good care of him. Why are you upset and crying here? use?"

Jia De's words seemed to have some effect, although Mo Wang was still sitting like a dark cloud, but at least he stopped crying.

After an unknown amount of time, the surgery door finally opened.Gu Yexi was wrapped up like a mummy, there was nothing to see on her body.Although it was all injuries, he finally got over it. After a good rest, he should be able to be alive and kicking like before.Hearing what the doctor said, everyone felt relieved at last.

As for Nian, because he was tied up by Mo Wang, he also failed to escape the explosion.But Mo Wang felt that he didn't want to escape at all, he planned to die there from the very beginning, and the whole game was just his last carnival before he died.He was injured more seriously than Gu Yexi, and he couldn't wake up. The doctor said that he would probably remain in a vegetable state in the future.

ten days later.

"Oh, the weather is so nice today, can you take me out for a walk? Hey! I'm talking to you, where are you going?!"

"My thigh is so itchy, can you scratch it for me? It's also itchy a little higher up, you...why are you staring at me?"

"We haven't seen each other for 8 hours and 07 minutes, do you miss me? Hey, hey, can you talk to me?!"

Gu Yexi's ward is full of conversations like this every day, ah no, it's not really a conversation, because Mo Wang has been ignoring him, so he is talking to himself.

Before Gu Yexi woke up, Mo Wang stayed beside his bed, his eyes were full of affection, and he never moved away for a moment.But after Gu Yexi woke up, Mo Wang started to lose his temper. The two of them almost never lost their temper.But this time Mo Wang seemed to be serious. After Gu Yexi woke up, although he still came to see him regularly every day and take care of him, he just refused to talk to him, with writing all over his face: I am angry, I can’t be coaxed. Good kind!

When Gu Yexi first woke up, she didn't have the strength to speak yet, so the mosquitoes could only coax Mo Wang by humming. After a few days, she was able to speak, and then she began to tease Mo Wang non-stop, begging for peace.

But it doesn't seem to work.

Today, Gu Yexi still continued to stare at Mo Wang aggrievedly, "Can you wipe my body, I think I'm going to go bad."

Mo Wang still stared at the book in his hand, and raised his mobile phone, which showed 11:47.Gu Yexi understood what he meant. Mother Gu would come to take care of her on time at 12 o'clock every day, and then spend the whole afternoon with her. What Mo Wang meant was to find her mother when she took a bath.

"No, I'm old enough to find my mother."

Mo Wang turned the book to the next page and continued to read it carefully, as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Smelly Mo Wang, bad Mo Wang, actually bullying the patient, people are so miserable, yet you still want to bully me."

"Who bullied you?" A gentle female voice came from the door, and one knew it was Gu's mother.

Mo Wang covered the book and stood up awkwardly, "Auntie."

"Yeah. Xiao Mo is hungry, I'll cook something delicious for you! There are thirsty chicken wings, fried cabbage, and..."

Gu Yexi was upset, "You just give him delicious food, you're partial!"

Mama Gu knocked him on the head, "You can't eat these now, just lie down obediently, it's not for you."

Gu Yexi stared at the two people who were serving meals in front of him. He didn't quite understand why they wanted to eat something he couldn't eat in front of a patient, so they couldn't eat it elsewhere?Can't you knock him out before eating? ? ? ?

He watched Mo Wang bite the chicken wing, and suddenly said, "Isn't it good to play mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in TV dramas? Why are you so harmonious?"

Mo Wang was startled, the chicken wings in his mouth fell back into the lunch box, the tips of his ears were slightly red, he was afraid to look after his mother.

Although these days, Mo Wang has not deliberately avoided anything, but after all, he has not formally said to Gu's mother. Mo Wang has always been very well-behaved, and he was very reserved when Gu's mother appeared. This was suddenly exposed, and suddenly felt very strange Excuse me.

Gu's mother didn't know if she had guessed it a long time ago, or she didn't take it seriously, and patted Mo Wang on the head, "Mo Wang is much better than you, and he is handsome. Do you have any objections to me being nicer to him?" ?”

"Mom, you've changed your mind," Gu Yexi said with a sad face, "You used to say that I'm the most handsome in the universe."

"I'm talking about my son who is the most handsome in the universe," Gu's mother looked at Mo Wang in a vague way, "now Mo Wang is my son, right?"

Mo Wang was a little stunned, not knowing how to react.

Gu Yexi answered it very naturally, "Yes, yes, hey, only the newcomers laugh, who listens to the old ones crying. I'm sleepy, I'm sleeping, please keep your voice down while chewing chicken wings!"

After lunch, Gu's mother proposed to take a walk in the yard downstairs. After Mo Wang covered Gu Yexi with a blanket, she followed her downstairs.

The two walked relatively silently, Mo Wang was still at a loss and slightly embarrassed.He has long believed that Gu Yexi is a person who will be with him all his life, and he has also imagined the situation of meeting his parents many times, but what actually happened is very different from what he imagined.He has never tried to develop to this point with anyone, and he is very nervous, afraid that Mama Gu will not have a good impression of him, afraid that Mama Gu will not accept him, afraid of everything.

"Xiao Mo?" Mother Gu said with a smile.

"Ok?"

"Xiao Xi likes you very much, doesn't she?"

"Uh, um."

"Then you like him too?"

"Yes, I like it very much," Mo Wang said immediately, and then seriously added, "I love him."

Gu's mother smiled, a very happy smile, "Then, can I trust him to you?"

Mo Wang looked sincerely, "Yes."

"That child has many shortcomings, and I hope you can tolerate it."

"He has no flaws," Mo Wang blurted out, and later felt that he was too flattering, "Even if there were, I don't care."

"Don't be too accommodating to him. Sometimes you have to make him change. It's not good to wrong yourself too much."

Mo Wang shook his head, "No grievance. With him, nothing wronged."

"Silly boy," Gu's mother took Mo Wang's hand, "If he bullies you, just tell me and I'll pinch his ears."

Mother Gu's hands were warm and soft, not at all like the hands of an elderly person. Mo Wang felt warm in his heart, and nodded heavily, "Yes."

Gu Yexi slept until dusk, and when he woke up, he found that Mo Wang was still in the ward. He felt a little strange. His mother usually accompanied him in the afternoon.

"I'm thirsty." Gu Yexi whispered.

Mo Wang put down the book and carefully fed him water.

"Where's Mom?"

Mo Wang wiped away a drop of water from the corner of Gu Yexi's mouth, "She said she has an appointment with grandma to play mahjong."

"She still lives at your grandma's house?" Gu Yexi complained in a low voice.When Gu's mother came to see Gu Yexi, Grandma Mo Wang also came. The two hit it off right away, and finally stayed at Grandma Mo's house temporarily, saying that she hated Gu Yexi's pig's nest.

"Ah."

"Hey, no, you talked to me! You talked to me! Ha! I knew it, you couldn't help it! Admit it, you wanted to talk to me a long time ago, right?!" Gu Yexi suddenly found Mo Wang No longer being a black-faced dumb, I was so happy that I wanted to jump out of bed.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Mo Wang took Gu Yexi's hand, "I'm not angry with you, I'm just angry."

"I knew you didn't want to be angry with me."

"But I'm really angry, I...you want me to go alone, and you want me to leave you in that damn place. How can you be so cruel?"

Gu Yexi squeezed Mo Wang's hand tightly, "Is it possible? I left you and ran away by myself? Or did the two of you die together in that ghost place? If you were me, would you do the same? Are you willing to do this for me? If I die, why can't I die for you?"

"I...so I'm not angry with you, I'm angry with myself, I shouldn't be so careless, if I wasn't controlled by the 'command'..."

"How can there be so many ifs? Aren't we all fine now~ I've said it all, I have the aura of the protagonist, and I can't die. Don't be so dark. If someone sees it, they think I'm bullying you." Gu Ye Xi raised her hand, trying to touch Mo Wang's face, but she couldn't reach it.

Mo Wang bent down consciously, put his face into Gu Yexi's palm, "Promise me, there will be another time..."

Gu Yexi interrupted him, "There will be no next time, nothing will happen in the future, we are all fine."

"Even if something happens, we will face it together and escape together, do you hear me?"

"All right, all right, you can say whatever you want, okay? Classmate Mo? Mr. Mo? Officer Mo?"

Mo Wang finally smiled, lowered his head and kissed Gu Yexi's forehead.The light of the setting sun shone on the two of them, wrapping them up.

For a time, it seemed that heaven and earth overlapped.
