Love before marriage

Qi Ran spent a long time on the phone outside, and Chi Heng went out from the pottery room, just in time to hear him arranging Lu Xu's follow-up treatment.Autism is not like many physical diseases. It will be completely cured after the lesion is removed and the wound heals.Autism is not. It has never been cured at all. Like diabetes, it cannot be completely eradicated. It can only be controlled and treated continuously to make the condition weaker and weaker.So this disease is a long march, and it will last for a long, long time. At least before Lu Xu reaches adulthood, he will have to receive treatment.Psychological, physical, both are indispensable.

Qi Ran hung up the phone, turned around and saw Chi Heng, and smiled, "It's almost six o'clock, take the children to dinner, I know there is a good western restaurant nearby, they also serve children's meals, you can take Lu Have a taste."

Chi Heng looked at him quietly.Qi Ran asked: "What's wrong?"

"I promise you."

"Huh?" Qi Ran was stunned for half a second before realizing, "Is it the one I mentioned earlier?"

Chi Heng nodded without saying anything, then turned around and opened the curtain of the pottery room and entered.Qi Ran quickly followed and said in a low voice, "Chi Heng, thank you for your cooperation."

Chi Heng lowered his head and did not speak.

"Actually, it's nothing. You don't have to feel awkward at all. After all, this kind of thing is quite common." Qi Ran's tone was much lighter, without concealing his joy now, "Think about it, don't many men and women still Donate eggs and donate sperm? The current method is very mature, harmless to the body and very fast.”

Chi Heng sighed lightly, "Needless to say, I understand everything I should understand, and you don't need to try to comfort me."

"Okay." Qi Ran didn't say any more, and he just happened to be happy and relaxed. He was not good at comforting or persuading others, and that would always make his scalp tingle, so it's better to discuss some more practical issues.

"Since you agreed, when do you think it's better to do it? I want to do it as soon as possible, and you don't have to worry if you do it early. Next week, when you come to pick up the child next Monday afternoon, we will drop by If you do, it will delay you for an hour at most."

Chi Heng didn't say anything, Qi Ran clapped his hands to finalize the case, "Then it's settled, Monday afternoon."

Lu Xu had a good time that day, and ate a lot of dinner, so he was very well-behaved.After coming out of the restaurant, I went to the playground again. It was really a whole day of playing.Afterwards, Qi Ran sent Chi Heng and Lu Xu back, and it was past ten o'clock at night when they arrived at their place of residence.Lu Xu was so tired from playing that he fell asleep in the car. Chi Heng took off his coat and wrapped the child around him in case he would catch a cold.

Arriving at the gate of the compound, Chi Heng said he didn't need to drive in and got out of the car, thanked him and left with the child in his arms.Unexpectedly, Qi Ran also came down, Chi Heng wanted to ask if there was anything else, Qi Ran took off his coat and handed it to Chi Heng, "It will take a while to walk from here to the apartment building inside, take it and put it on." Blocking the wind, I think you seem to have a cold, take care of your children, but don't let your condition worsen."

"No need." Chi Heng refused almost without hesitation.

Qi Ran paused and put his clothes back.

"You go, don't send me off." Chi Heng said.

Qi Ran said "OK" and when he turned around, Chi Heng called him again, "Wait, doctor, there is something I forgot to ask you."

"what's up?"

"My son has bruises on the back of his neck. You are the person in charge. May I ask what's going on?"

Qi Ran turned around and approached, fiddled with Lu Xu's head lightly, not surprisingly, he saw a small mark on the child's immature neck skin, after looking at it for a while, he understood, and let go of his hand.

Chi Heng stared at him, carefully watching every move and every move, "You know what's going on." He waited for Qi Ran to explain.Qi Ran smiled and said, "As a superior, I actually dislike subordinates who upgrade their relationship from colleagues to lovers, because there are too many entanglements, and they will inevitably use small tricks, which can easily mess up a good cooperative relationship, but there are some people who are keen on it." Here, especially women, they are careful and thoughtful, love to play tricks and never get tired of it."

Chi Heng understood. He seemed to have a little impression of that female doctor, but he didn't have a deep impression and didn't know who she was.He didn't get entangled in this topic, hugged the child tightly, and only said, "In the future, I want to pick up the child early."

Qi Ran said: "Since the accident happened in my name, I will definitely give you an explanation, an explanation that satisfies you. Chi Heng, I assure you that similar things will not happen again in the future, you You can safely hand over the child to us, that woman will never appear again in the future."

Chi Heng didn't respond.

Qi Ran sighed, "Forget it, you go back first, it's windy and cold at night, I'll tell you later."

The baby moved in his arms, and Chi Heng didn't want to talk much because he was afraid of waking him up, so he turned and left without giving him a look, and he didn't even look back.

Qi Ran looked around at the same spot, and walked slowly outside. He found that this place was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary. He was even a little surprised that there were such low-rise buildings in the city, and the street lights in some areas were still broken. of.

Sure enough, Chi Heng should have no savings.Children with autism not only need physical therapy, but more importantly, psychological therapy, and a good psychologist is very expensive, and the price is calculated by the hour.Furthermore, children can use everything well, isn't this a huge expense?Three years, everything that should be exhausted has been exhausted, and Cary's savings and all salable properties are gone. If it is not because of the real embarrassment of the situation, perhaps Chi Heng would not easily agree to come back.

Three years, this time is carefully predicted by them, there will be no mistakes, the time can neither be too short nor too long.If it's too short, it won't be hard enough to push people to a desperate situation. If it's too long, it won't be easy if the suffering becomes a habit.For ordinary people, maybe there is such a thing as coincidence, but for Chi Heng, it has never been.

A complex emotion suddenly surged up in Qi Ran's heart, flowing slowly through his heart like icy cold water, and he recognized an extremely weak tributary of it—pity.This kind of emotion that he never bothered to possess and thought was very low-level and useless, was actually found in himself today.

The time of torture always comes quickly, as if the appointed day has arrived in the blink of an eye.It was a gloomy day with no light, the air was stagnant and dull, and it was said that there would be a heavy rain.

After work, Chi Heng planned to take a taxi there, but Lu Mingyan stood guard at the door early.Chi Heng didn't want to see him, so he turned around and avoided it, firstly because since he was determined to break off the relationship, he should not get involved, and secondly because, after all, he was going to Qi Ran to complete that kind of task, and he didn't want other people to know about this kind of thing.

That afternoon, Lu Mingyan was also in a bad mood. When Chi Heng ignored him and was about to take a taxi, he dragged Chi Heng into his car without saying a word, fastened him firmly with the seat belt, and then stepped on the accelerator to speed up. Fast again.

Speechless all the way.

It wasn't until later that he finally realized that Chi Heng didn't feel well, he seemed to be motion sick, so he quickly slowed down the car.

After a while of silence, Lu Mingyan spoke first.

"Do you know what you are going to do?"

"I know," Chi Heng said, "Pick up the child."

"Just pick up the kids?"

Chi Heng nodded his head slightly without moving, that's all, he didn't say much, the meaning of not wanting to communicate has been expressed clearly.

"Chi Heng," Lu Mingyan's expression darkened, "You don't want me to know anything now, and you don't want me to interfere, right?"

Chi Heng said indifferently: "That's right, what you said is quite right, you are very self-aware."

"But do you think I really don't know? As for not wanting me to interfere... Chi Heng, do you think it's possible?"

As soon as Lu Mingyan finished speaking, Chi Heng frowned, "Are you showing off, Mr. Lu?" That kind of cold, sarcastic, but affirmative tone.

"No, I'm just telling you the facts. I know everything about you."

What is already his own, is there any need to show off?

"Really?" Chi Heng turned his face away, clenched his hands unconsciously, "Then I beg you, don't say it!"

Lu Mingyan was silent for a moment, and when Chi Heng's anger passed, he changed the subject, "Chi Heng, tell me why the child's surname is Lu?"

Chi Heng kept looking out of the window and didn't look at him, and of course he didn't answer.

Lu Mingyan sighed imperceptibly, "Can you compromise on your own will? Don't torture yourself, you..."

"Enough!" Chi Heng interrupted in a cold voice, "The surname is Lu to avoid being found out! After I leave, the surname Chi will no longer be used. You will check everyone with the surname Chi, so you must change the surname! Although I It's stupid, but I still have some IQ. And I also know that if you are sure that I am a cruel person, you will guess that the child's surname is definitely not Lu, so this surname is the safest."

"Okay," Lu Mingyan agreed without raising any doubts, but he said, "Since you didn't 'smartly' choose another surname, but chose this one, then you should know what consequences you might bear."

Chi Heng paused, and finally turned his head to look at the person in front of him, his brows were still furrowed deeply, and his tone was a little fierce, "What do you mean?!"

"Once we get divorced, the child can only be with one of us. I am his father, and his surname is Lu, and the paternity test results will show that he is very similar to me, so who will be awarded, you and I should both very clear."

After finishing speaking, there was a dead silence.

Suddenly, Chi Heng got up from the back seat abruptly, with anger and a rare hostility, "You want to snatch the child from me?!" There was a kind of ferocity in the cold tone, Chi Heng looked at the people in front and sneered , "Try it, Lu Mingyan. If I let you take the child away, then I will die!"

Compared with Chi Heng's anger and anxiety, Lu Mingyan was much calmer, and Bafeng continued to drive without moving his eyes, except that Chi Heng's sudden stand-up movement was so violent that it almost made the car unstable. That moment really scared Lu Mingyan Arrived, but quickly recovered his composure.

Chi Heng was so fierce, but his face was still calm.

"I don't need to fight at all." Lu Mingyan said, "Chi Heng, if there is a lawsuit, who do you want to face as the child? Although you are the 'mother', it is absolutely impossible to come forward as a mother. So it can only be the father , but there can only be one biological father, from the surname to the paternity test, who do you think has a better chance of winning?"

Chi Heng's whole person became gloomy, from the anger just now he suddenly became very quiet, but the coldness remained and even became stronger.

"Chi Heng, you can't go to court because the paternity test results have to be shown to lawyers, judges, and many people. Wouldn't it be strange for them to find out that the child's genes came from two men? If the doctor Asked to inspect us separately, can you promise you can accept it? You can't. So you can't fight the lawsuit."

Chi Heng laughed back angrily, "As expected of you, Lu Mingyan, who can match this kind of skills, no matter what you can plan clearly and use it for you, even things that I never thought of, you have already thought about it. Well planned. Well, since you want that crippled child so much, then you can take him away, I'll treat it like a piece of meat bitten off by a dog, it's no big deal. Just right, I don't want to spend my life with a tow bottle Tonight, you will go to Su's house with me, and then to your Lu's house, explain the divorce to your parents, and then go through the formalities. Don't worry, I will finish everything tonight, and I won't delay you at all. Hurry up and take your seed away, I want to be alone."

Lu Mingyan took a deep breath and stepped on the brake, "Chi Heng, do you have to do this? Can you talk to me properly now?" At that time, he didn't understand why Chi Heng said the child was a disabled child, he just thought it was It's mocking him because that's his kind.

"I have nothing to say to you." Chi Heng opened the door and got out of the car, walked inside, ignoring Lu Mingyan.Lu Mingyan also came up. He knew that Chi Heng was angry now, so he didn't talk anymore, but just followed behind quietly.

Lu Mingyan sighed deeply. I don't know when it started, but the relationship between him and Chi Heng became like this. They either spoke sarcasm or quarreled, tearing open the wound mercilessly, and then sprinkled salt.How did it become like this?It seems that the three years of separation have distorted everything, turning love into hatred, and turning mutual belonging into a paranoid and desperate monopoly.In the tug-of-war, no one is willing to retreat.Not giving in is not just because of love, but also the pride and self-esteem engraved in the bones.

Love is a thing, the more beautiful and pure it is, the more fragile it is. It cannot bear poverty, suspicion, pressure, waiting, a third party... Too much can make it easily broken, not to mention that there are conflicts and conflicts in their love. calculating.

Forget it, it's useless to think too much, if you don't think about it, Lu Mingyan just told himself, in short, he will not let go, never.
