clear moonlight

It is rare to see such a lively scene in a hospital ward.Even on weekends, almost no one would visit the department on this floor, and Lu Ci and Shen Zitong, who clocked in on time twice a month, were already familiar faces in the family.Although in most cases, Shen Zitong was unable to enter the door quietly and then leave quietly like Lu Ci did.

Lu Ci understands that it's not because Shen Zitong is too weak or he is too cold-blooded, everyone expresses their grief in different ways, and Lu Ci has chosen to be the one who is calm and calm and needs to support everything at critical moments from the very beginning.

When they walked to the parking lot, Shen Zitong nodded to him and turned directly in the other direction.On weekends of every even-numbered week, Shen Zitong basically chooses to spend the time from leaving the hospital to returning home by himself.Lu Ci would ask him where he went as usual at the beginning, but he gave up asking after getting an ambiguous answer.Compared with the process, Lu Ci focuses more on the result.Since Shen Zitong would return to his usual state when he was with him in the evening, Lu Ci would not interfere too much with what happened.

Because right now his own situation is not good.

He has accepted the reality that Shen Mingxi's time is running out, and he has cast a mask of calmness for himself, and everything is proceeding steadily according to the plan.He should calmly accept Shen Mingxi's departure, and then take on the responsibility of being Shen Zitong's elder brother.Although Lu Ci knew very well in his heart, compared with Shen Mingxi, he couldn't play the role of a reliable big brother at all.

Lu Ci clearly remembered those scenes that he couldn't love the most, as well as the laughter and squabbles and peace and tranquility that belonged to the three of them.

For example, Shen Mingxi would sacrifice his lunch breaks and weekends one after another without complaint, sitting upright at his desk, looking at the document information on the iPad for the teaching handouts of the week.Lu Ci was past the age of compulsory education at that time, and his family adopted the usual "happy and free" breeding model, so many things related to the curriculum were handled by Shen Mingxi.Anyway, he is still in charge of Shen Zitong's studies, so he can take care of one child and take care of two children.

"Brother." Lu Ci stood behind him and poked Shen Mingxi's back. He was not particularly tall, but he was not the same kid as before, but in front of Shen Mingxi, he still looked a little small and thin.

The person being called is still busy checking the boxes listed on the screen.He has never liked to pack too many textbooks and teaching materials in his children's school bags, but the electronic display screen is not good for eyesight.Every time Shen Mingxi did these things, he felt distressed and helpless, so he would give Lu Ci the greatest tolerance.

"Take it if you like it, but let's buy a new one, you can't wear it in my size." Shen Mingxi turned around and just caught Lu Ci's colorful body. He couldn't help but smile, and raised his hand to touch the back of his head. He asked with crooked eyebrows, "What are you and Tongtong doing behind my back?"

Lu Ci curled his lips, knowing that Shen Mingxi didn't dislike his short stature, but he still felt a little unhappy, so he simply grabbed Shen Mingxi's shirt with one hand, and changed the subject domineeringly and arrogantly: "That's for me, I'll give it to you." You can hang it in the closet."

In fact, Lu Ci also knew that he was making trouble for no reason, but Shen Mingxi had always doted on him, no matter what Lu Ci wanted, as long as it didn't involve legal and principled issues, he would get it for him.

Shen Mingxi is such a person, generous and frank, easy-going and kind.Although Lu Ci was still looking for the perfect love in his dreams at that time, when he recalled everything in the past again, he also had to admit: if there hadn't been that accident, if they hadn't found a suitable dating partner after adulthood, Then Shen Mingxi will definitely become his future lifelong lover, no matter whether Lu Ci likes it or not, Shen Mingxi has always been the best and most suitable.

Until that accident happened, until the "always" in his impression was shattered by reality.

"I'm sorry." Lu Ci stared at Shen Zitong's back gradually disappearing at the exit, and finally turned around. He will drive halfway across the city in a while, so it is really not suitable to vent his emotions at this time.

However, it is certain that your mind does not stay on the vehicles coming and going. The more you want to forget about some things, the tighter you get entangled.After almost tripping over the steps, Lu Ci temporarily decided to go to the nearby supermarket first, buy some things to stuff in the refrigerator before driving back, and it would also save Shen Zitong from repeating a few words about how careless he usually is about his diet.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Lu Ci was still distracted by the wild thoughts that had finally stopped, and when he realized that he was too close to the person in the black coat directly in front of him, it was too late to stop.Lu Ci took a small step back, and when he looked up again, he had put on an apologetic smile and said, "I'm really sorry."

"It's okay." The person in front of him was surprisingly easy to talk, and when he turned around, Lu Ci finally matched the familiar voice with the face in his memory, and then his expression changed. It's a bit subtle - it's not that he doesn't like Chen Qianxia, ​​it's just that at this time and place, he really doesn't know how to face this person.

"Are you sick?" No matter who they met in the hospital, most people would subconsciously react this way, and Lu Ci was no exception. What's more, this kind of polite concern is more suitable for the current atmosphere.As he spoke, he cast his gaze at the bag in the opponent's hand—Chen Qianxia was carrying a white plastic bag, which seemed to contain a lot of things.

But at this time, his focus is obviously different from Lu Ci's. It might be better to say that he put all his energy on the person in front of him.Seeing that the other party was staring at her with slightly doubtful and worried eyes, Chen Qianxia managed to suppress the little joy in her heart, and explained with a smile: "I'm just here to prescribe some cold medicine that is always prepared during the season, don't worry, I'm fine Son."

Lu Ci nodded, trying not to look directly at the other person's eager and direct eyes, and replied: "It's fine, I'll go first." After speaking, he waved his hand at the person.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Chen Qianxia hurriedly stretched out her arms to stop him, "Hey, wait..."

Seeing that Lu Ci really stopped, he got stuck instead, faltering and saying: "Are... are you uncomfortable?"

"I'm fine." Lu Ci's strength is not strong enough to break through Chen Qianxia, ​​so he can only let the other party pull him honestly. Anyway, even if he escapes by chance, that person can't let him go immediately.

"Then..." Chen Qianxia's first reaction was to care about Lu Ci's body. After being rejected, he naturally shifted the possibility to "visiting a sick person".

He just wanted to ask, "So which friend are you here to visit?"? After observing the obvious displeasure on the other party's face, Chen Qianxia seemed to feel that it was unnecessary to mention this question.

Because the answer is right in front of you.
