North to Hanchuan

"This is Gu Yuze, this is Dr. Zhong, this is Xu Jin, and I'm Gu Hengbei," Gu Hengbei taught Ji Hanchuan before going out, "Call them one by one, if you make a mistake, don't go out."

Ji Hanchuan kept pinching the tiger's mouth of his left hand with the fingers of his right hand, blinking his eyes and calling everyone: "Gu Yuze, Dr. Zhong, Xu Jin, Gu... Beibei."

Gu Hengbei's cheekbones twitched slightly: "Gu Hengbei."

"Gu Beibei."

"Gu Hengbei!"

"Gu Beibei."

Gu Hengbei was furious: "Did you do it on purpose?"

Gu Yuze quietly pulled Ji Hanchuan's hand, even the children were worried for him: "My little uncle's name is Gu Hengbei, don't call him wrong again!"

Ji Hanchuan pursed his lips and shouted stubbornly, "Beibei."

……

When the door opened again, Ji Ningsheng appeared at the door. When he saw Ji Hanchuan, who was neatly dressed, wearing a hat and a mask, his eyes turned red instantly. Both Ji Hanchuan and Gu Yuze hid behind Gu Hengbei at the same time.

Gu Hengbei frowned slightly.

Zhong Ran said to Ji Ningsheng: "You are the family member of the patient, right? If you agree with me to treat Ji Hanchuan, there are a few things I need to talk about in advance."

Ji Ningsheng licked his lips awkwardly: "Speak."

"Ji Hanchuan's condition is more complicated. If I come to treat him, he must be transferred to my hospital."

Ji Ningsheng nodded respectfully: "That's no problem, I'll go through the transfer procedure later."

"Then," Zhong Ran pointed at Gu Hengbei, with a businesslike expression on his face, "Since the patient only knows Mr. Gu, I will arrange for the patient to have more contact with Mr. Gu in the next course of treatment. You need to sign a consent form." If the patient has any condition during the treatment period, Mr. Gu has the right to make any decision; if any accident occurs to the patient, Mr. Gu does not need to bear any responsibility..."

"What's that called?" Ji Ningsheng exploded immediately, "What do you mean he doesn't have to take responsibility for accidents?"

Zhong Ran smiled and said: "The patient had hunger strikes, climbing balconies and other dangerous behaviors before, and it is impossible to completely eliminate such behaviors in the future. No one can guarantee that he will be absolutely safe every time - Mr. Gu did not help If the patient has an accident and needs him to bear the responsibility, it would be too sad, family members, are you right?"

Ji Ning was so angry that blood rushed to his forehead: "You... what kind of doctor are you?"

"I'm a psychiatrist with a professional qualification certificate," Zhong Ran said patiently and gently, "Of course, if you insist on asking us to ensure his personal safety, we can do it. The conditions of our hospital's soft private rooms are still very good , The isolation chairs are all imported.”

Gu Hengbei put the back of his hand to his lips and coughed lightly, and Zhong Ran couldn't hold back his laughter when he said that.

Zhong Ran glanced over lightly, Gu Hengbei stopped smiling.

His brother is trying to find a place for him, and he has to hold back.

Ji Ningsheng's face turned red like a traffic light, and he was so angry that he couldn't utter a word.

Zhong Ran sighed, quite heartbroken: "Nowadays some people always take other people's kindness and righteousness for granted, they don't want to repay their gratitude, they don't learn from Lei Feng and Dong Cunrui, they must learn from Mr. Dong Guo, and make a lot of troubles. A righteous and kind person would not even dare to help an old lady... this family member, you must not be such a person, right?"

Xu Jin whispered: "Brother Ji, it's understandable for Dr. Zhong to ask for a power of attorney. Don't worry, they won't hurt Han Chuan."

Ji Ningsheng gritted his teeth and squeezed out: "Did you hear what a normal doctor said?"

"Oh," Zhong Ran shrugged, "My doctor's hearing is still normal."

The corner of Ji Ningsheng's mouth twitched violently, as if he had been slapped by someone but he had to bear it: "Okay, the power of attorney...is also fine."

A group of people left the ward and entered the elevator. Gu Hengbei naturally asked Gu Yuze to hold one of his hands. Ji Hanchuan watched eagerly and wanted to hold the other.

Gu Hengbei didn't do it on purpose, it's just that he just habitually put his other hand in his trouser pocket - of course, if he noticed, he wouldn't let Ji Hanchuan hold it.

There was sobbing in the small car.

Ji Ningsheng asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you, Xiao Chuan?"

Ji Hanchuan was wearing a hat and a mask. No one could see his expression clearly, but everyone knew that he was the one crying. He didn't answer Ji Ningsheng's questions. cry.

Xu Jin and Zhong Ran looked at each other, Ji Ningsheng was so anxious that he had nothing to do, Gu Hengbei looked embarrassed.

Only Gu Yuze couldn't bear it the most: "Altman, why are you crying?"

Ji Hanchuan twitched: "Beibei...don't like me."

"…………"

The atmosphere in the elevator was unprecedentedly treacherous, Ji Ningsheng stared at Gu Hengbei accusingly, Zhong Ran wanted to laugh but held back, Xu Jin persuaded without confidence:

"Han Chuan, there is no such thing, Heng Bei, he, ah..." No matter how unconscionable he is, he can't tell such nonsense as "You Bei Bei likes you very much".

Fortunately, the little angel Gu Yuze came to the rescue.

Gu Yuze hugged Gu Hengbei's hand and shook: "Little uncle, why don't you like Ultraman? He's very good."

Gu Hengbei shook his hand expressionlessly: "If you like it, go and hold him."

"Okay," Gu Yuze went to the corner to hold Ji Hanchuan's hand, "Altman, don't cry, I'll hold you."

Ji Hanchuan was still crying, Gu Hengbei said coldly: "If you cry again, don't go out."

"Ja—" the sobbing sound was suppressed like a brake.

Ji Ningsheng couldn't hold back: "Gu Hengbei, with your attitude, how can I trust Xiao Chuan to you?"

Gu Hengbei glanced slightly sideways, glanced at Ji Ningsheng with thin eyelids, and was lazy to say a word.

Zhong Ran said coolly: "Patient's family members, you can take the patient home now, I think Mr. Gu will wish for it."

Zhong Ran didn't like the person surnamed Ji in the first place. Although he didn't know about the past, judging from the short time that Ji Ningsheng played, it was obvious that this person hadn't treated Gu Hengbei very kindly before.

What the hell, who the hell is begging for whom, Zhong Ran felt dissatisfied.

In the small space of 1.68 square meters, there was wind, rain, lightning, and gunpowder smoke. Xu Jin wiped his sweaty forehead and smoothed things over awkwardly: "This elevator, hello, it's a bit hot."

"Ding!"

Thankfully, the elevator finally reached the first floor, and Xu Jin hurriedly said, "Doctor Zhong, please."

Zhong Ran restrained his temper, said a few words of politeness, and walked in front with Xu Jin.

Ji Ningsheng was a little behind, he looked back at Ji Hanchuan three times a step at a time, Ji Hanchuan pulled the brim of his hat low, holding Gu Yuze with one hand, and tugging at the corner of Gu Hengbei's clothes with the other.

Gu Hengbei noticed that as soon as Ji Ningsheng looked back, Gu Yuze couldn't help but flinch behind him. He slowed down and picked up his little nephew: "Honey, what's wrong with that uncle? So scared?"

"Little uncle, that's a weird uncle." The child hugged Gu Hengbei's neck, pressed against his ear, and told everything about being carried to the balcony by the weird uncle.

When Ji Ningsheng turned his head to look back again, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, a heavy fist hit his face, he cried out in pain, took several steps back, and fell to the ground.

The smell of fishy and salty iron filled his mouth, Ji Ningsheng only felt that his eyes were dark, and his cheeks were so painful that he almost lost consciousness.

"Brother Ji!"

"Xiao Bei!"

Xu Jin and Zhong Ran, who were walking in front, turned their heads when they heard the movement, and rushed over.

"What's the matter? Why did you make a move?" Zhong Ran stopped Gu Hengbei.

Xu Jin helped Ji Ningsheng up: "Heng Bei, if you have something to say, don't do it!"

Gu Hengbei's face was livid, he pointed at Ji Ningsheng with his index finger, and lighted it vigorously from the air, and said sharply: "Ji Ningsheng, if you dare to touch a hair of my nephew again, I will throw you off the balcony on the 26th floor! See if I dare !"

Zhong Ran understood it as soon as he heard it, and rushed to beat him as soon as he rolled his sleeves.

Xu Jin was so anxious that he stopped Zhong Ran again and shouted: "Heng Bei, that was a misunderstanding, the situation was urgent..."

"There are not so many misunderstandings!" Gu Hengbei's eyes flashed coldly, like a sharp knife piercing Ji Ningsheng's heart, "Apart from your brother, do you think of others as human beings? You treat your brother as a human being." Extraordinary? Look at him!"

Gu Hengbei stretched out his long arms and pulled Ji Hanchuan, who was standing blankly behind him, to the front, so that Ji Ningsheng could see clearly, "He is annoyed when he sees you now! Since you came to him, what have you done to him? Help? If you don’t go on the right way, you’re going to dive into the muddy water all day long, and you’ll be a fool for a day, and you’ll be a fool for the rest of your life!”

Gu Hengbei's chest was full of anger, like lava that had been suppressed for many years in the depths of the sea suddenly erupted.

"Your brother is here today. He doesn't know anything now. With his current appearance, do you dare to admit to him that you are going to go to northern Burma by yourself? Do you dare to admit to him that you fainted on purpose in the hot pot restaurant?" Is it just to call him back from country A? Since then, you have been urging him to break up with me every day! You have done everything you can to get him to be with Ivanka! You have made a lot of noise and suicide and tortured him Exhausted, you are stalking him like a snake and wishing you could kill him! He is so stupid now, how do you still have the face to stand upright? How do you still have the face to touch my nephew?!"

Ji Ningsheng knelt on the ground with one knee, his face was bloodless, his whole figure was like a withered tree stump.

He stared blankly at the front, his younger brother stood in front of him, his head and face were tightly covered, only a pair of dark eyes were exposed, looking at him strangely and alienated.

Gu Hengbei stared coldly at him, followed by a scalpel-like baptism. When Ji Ningsheng heard Gu Hengbei's heaviest cut, he stabbed himself from the inside out: "Ji Ningsheng, remember , Ji Hanchuan became what he is today, and you owe a lot to him!"

People came and went on the road leading to the outside of the inpatient building, and many people looked at them.

Zhong Ran was furious when he heard that, but he still pulled Gu Hengbei: "Xiao Bei, the child is still there."

Gu Hengbei turned his head, Gu Yuze stared at his big round eyes, he had never seen his little uncle get so angry, he was terrified.

Gu Hengbei walked back to pick up the child, and walked forward without saying a word.

Ji Hanchuan followed behind Gu Hengbei, step by step.

Ji Ningsheng was lifted up by Xu Jin, his body crumbling.

"Brother Ji," Xu Jin said softly, "I'll take you back."

Ji Ningsheng shook his head. He opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally made a sound, hoarse as if he had been rubbed by rough sandpaper: "You go and eat with them, and I will go back by myself."

Ji Ningsheng turned around mechanically, walking back and forth step by step. He couldn't remember how he got back into the elevator again. He only felt surrounded by metal walls, like a frozen cold cellar. Every molecule in the air They were all solidified into ice-quenched blades that pierced his flesh and bones bit by bit.

He squatted down and hugged his arms tightly, as if this would relieve a little pain and cold.

But it was useless, Gu Hengbei's voice kept ringing in his ears, enveloping his whole body in a big bell that was struck, and the huge echo shattered his eardrums, heart and lungs—"Ji Ningsheng, remember, Ji Hanchuan became what he is today, and you owe a lot to him!"

When did it start?

Obviously at the beginning, he just wanted to take care of and protect his younger brother.

"Xiao Ning, this is my younger brother. He is the closest person to Xiao Ning besides mother. In the future, you have to take good care of my younger brother, you know?"

"But he wasn't born by my mother."

"But without his mother, there would be no us. We must know how to be grateful."

He lay on the edge of the bed, seeing the ugly mouse-like child in the swaddling infant, he poked his finger curiously, the little mouse whimpered and cried, and then grabbed his finger, as if it was yesterday thing.

It was also yesterday, when the young man he brought up stood in front of him with cold hatred in his eyes, Ji Hanchuan said every word without raising his voice, but every word was full of blood: "Brother, in all these years, I have never done you wrong , you kept saying that you wanted me to be happy, but what you did today completely ruined my happiness. Remember, if I was ruined, it wasn't Gu Hengbei who did it, it was you who caused it... I can't forgive."

……

"In my opinion, it's not Ji Hanchuan who should be treated most now, but his elder brother," Zhong Ran leaned back in his chair in a hotel box near the hospital, and complained unceremoniously, "He has a serious illness." Personality disorder, paranoia, split, mania, depression, so you have endured such a person for so many years? Gu Xiaosi, you have never seen what is bitter, hot and salty since you were a child, and you deliberately let this family experience all the flavors of life?"

Xu Jin was ordering live fish outside, only Zhong Ran and Gu Hengbei were in the box, and the other two who didn't understand were ignored.

"Then you're wrong," Gu Hengbei pulled down Gu Yuze's down jacket and hung it on the back of the chair, "I've lived under the same roof with Ji Ningsheng for less than three days a year, Ji Hanchuan is the one who is unlucky."

There is Gu Yuze between Ji Hanchuan and Gu Hengbei, he is poking the plastic on the disinfected tableware in front of him with his chopsticks, when he hears Gu Hengbei calling his name, he immediately looks up at Gu Hengbei, like a well-behaved dog Shaking his head.

Gu Hengbei didn't look at that stupid look: "Take off your coat and hang it on the back of the chair."

Ji Hanchuan obediently took off his down jacket.

Zhong Ran was stunned: "You said that you haven't had much confrontation with Ji Ningsheng?"

"Yes," Gu Hengbei nodded, "When Ji Ningsheng first went to country A, he lived in a nursing home. I heard about the few times he committed suicide in the Chinese circle of friends. I only recognized it when I saw a video shot by someone. That's him, eating melons and eating them at his own house...for what?"

The waiter came in to deliver drinks, several bottles of Coke and two bottles of Wangzai milk, Gu Hengbei put a can each in front of Gu Yuze and Ji Hanchuan, but Ji Hanchuan grabbed his hand.

"Beibei is in pain..." Ji Hanchuan pursed his mouth, and the round tears fell on the back of Gu Hengbei's hand.

It was scratched when Gu Hengbei beat Ji Ningsheng, it just scratched the skin a little, and he didn't feel it at all before, but when he was scalded by Ji Hanchuan's tears, it hurt like he had been sprayed with wax.

As soon as Ji Hanchuan cried, Gu Yuze also found that his little uncle was bleeding, "Wow" burst into tears: "Little uncle, woo woo woo, my little uncle is bleeding, it hurts..."

A duet sounded in the box, each louder and louder than the other, almost cracking the ceiling, Gu Hengbei was funny and angry, and felt a little sore in his heart.

Zhong Ran asked the waiter to find hydrogen peroxide and band-aids, and Gu Hengbei hugged Gu Yuze on his lap and coaxed him: "It's okay, my little uncle doesn't hurt, just rub a little bit of skin, Xiao Ze is good..."

The little one was slowly coaxed down, and the older one took on the great task of crying and howling alone.

Gu Hengbei's headache was about to split, and he still used the old method to deal with it: "Ji Hanchuan, if you cry again, get out!"

Ji Hanchuan didn't hold back this time, instead he burst into tears, the more he cried, the more he cried until the private room was flooded, he was almost out of breath.

Zhong Ran reminded: "It will only make you sadder if you treat him differently. He is similar to Ozawa in mind now. Children cry very simply, such as hunger, pain, fear, grievance and feeling that they are not liked. .”

"Of course," Zhong Ran said, "it's also very easy to coax."

Gu Hengbei looked up at the ceiling, then put Gu Yuze back on the chair.

Gu Hengbei got up and walked to Ji Hanchuan's side, hugged his shoulders, stroked the back of his bald head with the palm of his hand, and said softly: "Don't cry... be good..."

The last sentence was murmured like a soft feather, no one could listen: "...how did you become such a weirdo, idiot."
