The hospital was filled with the indigestible smell of disinfectant, and it was another week to tell Teacher Zhou that he should obediently attend class.

Gu Zhan came out of the CT room worriedly, holding a few chest x-rays that had just been printed and were still warm.At this time, he was wearing a blue and white striped shirt and trousers unique to the hospital. He looked like a long-term resident. His current destination was the office of his attending doctor.

Ms. Gu didn't know that her rejection had reappeared. If she didn't tell her, if she died suddenly, she would definitely blame Teacher Zhou who didn't know anything.

But should he really keep Teacher Zhou in the dark?

"The situation is not optimistic..." The elderly doctor sighed, "How long has your rejection been going on?"

"Repeatedly, it happened a few years ago." Gu Zhan replied honestly, "But when I was treated abroad that time, I don't think there is any problem... Who knows it started again recently."

"Chronic rejection is like this." The doctor pushed his glasses, "You should stay in the hospital and observe obediently for a few days."

"I'm on the weekend..." Gu Zhan heard the doctor say this, and was a little anxious, "I have something to do on the weekend and I have to go home."

"No." The doctor categorically refused, "You know your own physical condition best, and it's safest to stay in the hospital now."

"I have something to do." Gu Zhan took the film from the doctor, buried his head deeply, and his voice was a bit dull.

The doctor turned the pen and wrote characters that Gu Zhan couldn't understand on the medical record card.The voice was undeniable and firm: "There is nothing more important than life. You must stay in the hospital for observation this week."

Of course there is.Gu Zhan slandered a bit, but agreed verbally.After leaving the doctor's office, he began to think about how to sneak home.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to go out, he bumped into a person he was too familiar with.The scent of the other party's perfume replaced the smell of the hospital's disinfectant, and the man was looking at Gu Zhan seriously.

"Gu... Ms. Gu, why are you here?" Gu Zhan stammered.

"Don't block people's door." Ms. Gu pulled Gu Zhan's sleeve and led him to the corridor, "You have grown up, haven't you? Have you taken my mother seriously?"

Gu Zhan kept silent. He also knew that it would be quite easy for Ms. Gu to find him, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Do you know, Mr. Zhou?" Seeing that Gu Zhan did not speak, Ms. Gu let go of the pole of the trolley case and put her hands on her chest.

Gu Zhan shook his head, then pressed his lips tightly.Although he has persisted until now, when his blood relatives really started to care about him, all the firmly held things in Gu Zhan's heart fell down.

"Okay, okay." Ms. Gu is no longer taller than Gu Zhan, but she still touched Gu Zhan's head on tiptoe, just like she did before, "Let's go to the ward first."

Ms. Gu was still acting vigorously as usual, and when she realized that a large amount of money on the bank card was spent in the hospital, she immediately bought a plane ticket and flew over.Her originally meticulous hair was a little messy, and now she also had dark circles under her eyes because she didn't have a good rest.

"What's going on?" she asked patiently, sensing something was wrong with her cutest son.

"You might find it a bit unbelievable to say it." Gu Zhan covered the quilt under Ms. Gu's gaze, the lights in his eyes seemed to be running out of power, "Teacher Zhou had a car accident and lost his memory."

"He forgot about you?" Ms. Gu frowned, "Are you still together now?"

"We are together, Ms. Gu." Gu Zhan showed a forced smile, "But, am I being cruel like this? Ms. Gu, I can't tell Teacher Zhou that I am going to die soon."

"No, Gu Zhan, how can people die so easily?" Ms. Gu held Gu Zhan's hand, "Mom will try her best to help you continue your life! At worst, another heart..."

Gu Zhan fell silent.It was Anita's heart beating in his chest, the heart of the person his teacher Zhou loved the most. How could he be willing to abandon her?But just like the doctor said, I know the condition of my body best.With every premature beat, every pause, Gu Zhan knew that death was one step closer to him.

He had never been so afraid of death before, but now that death had come before his eyes, he realized that death was so terrible.Or maybe what was terrible was not death itself, but the people he loved and loved him when he was reluctant to exist in the world.

"You are like your father now." Ms. Gu said suddenly, she raised her hand to caress Gu Zhan's forehead, which was bald because it had just been cut to size.

"My dad?" Gu Zhan seldom heard Ms. Gu mention his dad's affairs, so he couldn't help feeling a little more energetic.

"Your father has the same problem as you, and your grandfather has the same problem." Ms. Gu said, "I thought you could escape, but I didn't expect you to." She touched Gu Zhan's hairy body again, "Your father is a writer. When he was the hottest book, he could only sell two or three copies. I bought it. But in my heart, he is the most talented writer in the world. His books are like stars in the sky. , read one page and pick one.”

Ms. Gu paused, as if thinking of something, "Do you remember your favorite book when you were a child?"

"You mean "Little Boat"?" Gu Zhan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Is this written by my dad?"

"Yes." Ms. Gu finally smiled, "That's why you are called Gu Zhan, it is a clear lake filled with boats."

"My dad... When did he die?" Gu Zhan lowered his eyes, "Did he tell you then?"

"No, he didn't tell me that he was sick until his death." Ms. Gu's voice cooled down, "The only thing that was sent to me was a notice to attend the funeral ceremony."

At this moment, Gu Zhan felt that he was really his father's real son.But after seeing Ms. Gu's cold expression, there was not only complaints but also sadness hidden in her eyes.Her sad appearance made Gu Zhan think of Zhou Muzhen, whether after his death, Zhou Muzhen also looked calm like this, but his heart was already turned upside down.

I... Should I tell him?

But it doesn't matter if you tell him or don't tell him.I have already hurt him, and I am destined to make him lose.
