The Third Rose

Mi Sheng fainted, and the scene fell into chaos again.The doctor examined him and said that he was in a hurry and nothing serious.The hospital temporarily arranged that the ward would not be vacant in the middle of the night, so Chen Xingze carried Mi Sheng to the bed in the infusion room to rest.

Chen Xingze was busy all night.He paid for the operation and the ambulance, and arranged for the postoperative hospitalization. He even wrote down every word of the nursing methods the doctor said.After all this work was over, it was already past four o'clock in the middle of the night. Chen Xingze sat down on a stool in the hospital corridor and rubbed his face vigorously.

The little nursing girl also stayed up all night, and was squatting by the wall exhausted at this time.Now no one has the energy to blame her, and everyone is afraid.

Chen Xingze lowered his head and pressed his hands on his temples.

If he hadn't said those words with Mi Sheng's mother, if he hadn't thought of Wu Xingzhi and Zhao Shan, or even if he had stood a little crooked and not met Mi Sheng's mother's eyes, then she might have left by now.In my sleep, amidst the quarrel between my son and others, I bid farewell to this world.

If this is the case, Chen Xingze can't imagine how Mi Sheng will recall this day in the future.

"Fortunately..." The little girl hugged her knees, huddled into a ball and sobbed. "It's a good thing you found out, otherwise it would be really miserable... But she didn't get sick, so why did she commit suicide?"

Chen Xingze was speechless.

The little girl: "Why hasn't the dean come here? I want to resign. I don't want to deal with mental patients anymore."

Chen Xingze sighed and returned to the infusion room.Aunt Wang is looking after Mi Sheng.Aunt Wang is not young anymore, and she was haggard after a sleepless night.Chen Xingze said: "Take a break, I'll take care of him." Aunt Wang's eyes were so swollen that she couldn't open her eyes. She stroked Mi Sheng's cheek and said in a hoarse voice, "The lives of these two women are really hard. What is there to overcome?"

"There's nothing hard to overcome, everything will get better." Chen Xingze told Aunt Wang, "You should go home first and have a rest. Mi Sheng's mother will be hospitalized for a while. Tomorrow, you will bring the daily necessities."

Aunt Wang: "Okay, I'll get it right away."

Aunt Wang left, and Chen Xingze sat by the bed.Mi Sheng sleeps in a very insecure position, hugging his body.Chen Xingze gently stroked his hair.

The little girl didn't understand why Mi Sheng's mother committed suicide, he understood.He knew that Mi Sheng also understood, but he would rather Mi Sheng not understand.With this complicated emotion, Chen Xingze leaned over and kissed Mi Sheng's forehead for Mi Sheng's mother.

Perhaps feeling comforted, Mi Sheng moved.Chen Xingze found that Mi Sheng had been breathing through his mouth, and his nose seemed to be blocked.He touched his lips, chapped and peeled.Chen Xingze went to the nurse on duty to buy lipstick. The nurse said that the pharmacy was not open yet, and brought Chen Xingze a small box of Vaseline oil.

Chen Xingze washed his hands three or four times, and used his fingertips to apply Mi Sheng.Originally, this kind of delicate work was not suitable for men, but now Chen Xingze's heart is thinner than that of a embroidered girl. He has never been so careful when playing the two 300 million violins in his mother's orchestra.

The good medicine is on, and the sky is already dawning.After this day and night of torture, no matter how strong Chen Xingze was, he was exhausted physically and mentally.Tomorrow will be the final exam week, Chen Xingze has to go back to school, he checks the time, it is just after five o'clock, he plans to take a nap, and rush back in the morning.

Mi Sheng likes to slip to the side when he sleeps, the bed is partially vacant, Chen Xingze lays down on it carefully.He originally thought about squinting for an hour and leaving, but as soon as his back touched the bed, he immediately fell into a fairyland, and as soon as his eyelids closed, he fell asleep in a few seconds.

Chen Xingze was finally woken up by the cry of the child getting an injection. He struggled to open it. The sun was already shining, and many people came to the infusion room.Chen Xingze got up in a daze, and put on his glasses.The crying child was hugged by his mother, and the young mother coaxed the child. "Good baby, don't cry, look at this big brother's hairstyle."

Chen Xingze: "..."

He touched his hair, and it was no accident that he was deformed from sleep.He thought that it was already like this anyway, so he might as well make the child happy, so he gave himself a pig's nose, closed his eyes again, and shook his head.The child laughed through his tears, and Chen Xingze became more cheerful.Then he turned his head carelessly, and met Mi Sheng who was standing quietly at the end of the bed.

awkward.

Chen Xingze coughed twice and let go of his hand, but the next second he saw Mi Sheng's left elbow had a plaster cast on it, and his expression immediately changed.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing. I woke up this morning with a swollen arm and couldn't straighten it. After taking an X-ray, the doctor said there was a little bone fracture, and it's okay."

"Ah? Broken bone?" Chen Xingze frowned, "Why didn't you say anything last night?"

Mi Sheng bowed his head and said nothing, Chen Xingze realized that the wind and waves last night, how could Mi Sheng take such pain in his arm to his heart.

"Does it hurt?"

"fine."

"How is Auntie?"

"I just went to see her, the operation was successful, thank you."

"Thank you for what..."

Seeing that Mi Sheng's condition was okay, Chen Xingze gradually felt relieved.Then the focus began to shift, he wondered why everyone was sleeping, and the hairstyles after waking up were so different.He had already exploded, but Mi Sheng's hair was still so soft and well-groomed, with a warm reddish hue under the sunlight.

"This is for you." Mi Sheng came to Chen Xingze's side and handed him a stack of wet wipes.Chen Xingze thanked him and wiped his face with it.

Mi Sheng stared at him from the side, "Brat..." He was about to say something when Chen Xingze's cell phone rang, and it was Shi Kai who called, and when he got through, he yelled at him.

"You can't come back yet! Do you want us to go for you for the exam?!"

"Hui Hui Hui, I will return right away! You can push me up again!"

"I respect your ancestor!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xingze turned to Mi Sheng, "What, what did you want to say?"

Mi Sheng lowered his head slightly, bent his neck at a nice angle, and said softly: "...it's nothing, you want to go?"

"Well, tomorrow is exam week."

Chen Xingze got out of bed and stretched his muscles a little.

"A week's exam?"

"more or less."

"Go home after the exam?"

"Not that fast."

Mi Sheng hesitated to speak, Chen Xingze put his bag on his back, and Mi Sheng followed up and said, "I'll see you off."

The two came to the hospital door in silence, and Chen Xingze said, "Then I'm leaving."

Mi Sheng stopped him again, "Little devil."

Chen Xingze turned around.

Mi Sheng hesitated and said: "You can come to me again after the exam, or I can come to you. I will return the money to you. I am not used to using cards. Can I return your cash?"

Chen Xingze found that when Mi Sheng said these words, his eyes seemed to shift a little for a certain moment.He is usually not good at guessing people's hearts, but at this moment, he suddenly understood his true meaning.

He returned to Mi Sheng and said to him: "If you miss me, just call me. As long as you call, I will come even if you are taking the exam."

Mi Sheng opened his lips slightly, as if he didn't expect Chen Xingze to say that.

Chen Xingze smiled at him, "You know, right, as long as you call me, I will definitely come." He helped Mi Sheng remove the broken hair on his forehead, "Have a good rest and take care of Auntie, I'm leaving first."

The wrist was pulled, and Mi Sheng grabbed him instinctively.He was only able to use his right hand, and even with all his strength, the bones and tendons on the back of his hand were all highlighted.

He didn't say a word, he just held Chen Xingze tightly and refused to let him go.

Those eyes looking at Chen Xingze were red.

Chen Xingze suddenly remembered what Mi Sheng's mother said to him last night - despite his usual strength, he is actually very timid and loves to cry.But he didn't cry so much before, because he was bullied when he grew up.

Chen Xingze's heart seemed to be soaked in lemon juice.He took half a step forward and hugged Mi Sheng tightly.He listened to the trembling breathing beside his ears, and the more he listened, the more uncomfortable he became. "Don't do this, I'm going to cry if you do this again." Mi Sheng also hugged Chen Xingze, "Little..." There were only two words, but they were out of tune. Mi Sheng buried his face in Chen Xingze's shoulder, and after a while, Chen Xingze felt his shoulders wet.

The man in his arms was so thin that there were only a few bones left. Chen Xingze also saw a few white hairs mixed in his hair. He remembered the Mi Sheng he saw when he was 17 years old. Some of it is faked.

Now less than five years have passed, but Mi Sheng seems to be ten years older.

Chen Xingze hugged him even more gently, and asked in a low voice: "Are you scared? It's okay, don't be afraid, everything will get better."

Mi Sheng said weakly: "It won't be fine..."

"Yes, definitely will." Chen Xingze said stubbornly to him, "Didn't you tell me before that we will all be happy."

"That was a lie to you."

"Hey, as long as I believe it, it's true."

Mi Sheng buried his head deeper, and he held onto Chen Xingze even harder, wishing he could embed his whole body into his body.Chen Xingze followed his back, "I didn't expect you to be quite strong."

It was already afternoon when he returned to school, and Shi Kai scolded him again.

"I think you are too happy to leave!"

Lu Xiaofei said: "Hey, you didn't use the word correctly. Judging by his appearance, it should be something like 'joying while suffering'."

"Stop making trouble."

Chen Xingze threw away his schoolbag, took off his clothes and hurriedly took a shower, clutching every minute and every second.

The next day, the exam week began. Chen Xingze thanked himself for working hard on weekdays, and he could enjoy the exam by relying on his experience.

In the examination room, he was still thinking about Mi Sheng. He originally thought that after the year of repetition, he would have reached the reading standard of Chairman Cai Shikou, but the facts have proved that it is difficult to change the country's nature, and dogs can't change their eating/shit.Halfway through the exam week, Chen Xingze's heart flew to Mi Sheng's side.

But Mi Sheng's side was not stable. During Chen Xingze's exam, he didn't make a single phone call. At most, he sent a message to say good night before going to bed.Chen Xingze once felt that the scene of Mi Sheng reluctantly leaving at the entrance of the hospital that day was all his imagination.

After finally enduring the exam, Chen Xingze was finally able to let himself go.He left the examination room and rushed directly to the hospital.At the door of Mi Sheng's mother's ward, Chen Xingze saw Mi Sheng talking to a woman.The woman folded her arms and had a face similar to Mi Sheng's, but her expression was indifferent and her eyes were rather severe.Mi Sheng kept his head down, his face was pale, as if he was admitting his mistake.

In Chen Xingze's mind, he judged that this woman should be Mi Sheng's younger sister.

He was afraid that Mi Sheng would be bullied, so he stepped forward quickly.
