Chapter 8, how I wish for my dreams to come true

I watched their departing figures, my heart twisted in pain, as if it were being cut by a knife. My mother, seeing that Lin Xiaozhu had left, finally walked over to me. She has always been someone who does not understand how to offer comfort, only knowing how to chatter on with trivial words. However, at this moment, I did not need comfort; I only needed her to be by my side.

My lips were trembling, the doctor had already turned to leave, and I lunged at him, grabbing his arm: "Doctor, she will wake up, right? You need to be clear, what do you mean by 'it's hard to say when she will wake up'? You are the doctor, how could you not know? Please clarify..."

I did not bring up the matter of her impending departure, nor did I mention any sorrowful stories. We tacitly engaged in light conversation, only speaking of those joyful times.

He nodded slightly and obediently agreed. That selfish bastard has now become so compliant, and I suddenly felt a twinge of comfort in my heart

Mother Ye was on the verge of fainting, and my head was buzzing

It was just a moment; I looked up in terror as that thing came crashing down towards me, but suddenly I felt my body lighten and I flew away into the distance

At last, I saw Moxi, I linked my arm with his, and together, under the witness of the pastor, we entered the hall of marriage

Little Cottage! Do not stop him!

For example, if we ultimately drift apart, years later, in an unintentional encounter, he smiles at me

His arm is strong, and the warmth of his body gradually warmed me, alleviating much of the chill that had made me shiver just moments ago

The rainwater was too cold, and my clothes were already soaked. I crouched down, tightly hugging my knees with my arms, burying my head deep in my arms

Mom, I am fine, I will be okay, everything will be alright

Xiaotong, you have grown up, and there are certain things that you must experience. You need to be brave and not be afraid. Mother will always be by your side. Xiaohan... that was an accident, do not blame yourself too much. Mother believes that good people will always be rewarded, she will definitely wake up

Lin Xiaozhu always accompanied me home, while my mother waited for me at the door, occasionally glancing towards the entrance. Upon seeing me return, she compassionately pulled me into the house.

But now, time has gradually sculpted her into the image of a neighborly aunt, as she needs to go out to earn a living and cook to support her family

The light has gone out

Jumping over a fence, I landed on the stands, and in an instant, a multitude of scenic views unfolded before my eyes. Having lived here for so many years, it was the first time I felt that this city was breathtakingly beautiful

I watched as Yi Dan appeared lost and despondent yet still struggling desperately, and I truly felt a sense of compassion

Ye Bihan, you once said that no matter when I call your name, you will always respond

If at that time they had hit me or scolded me, I could have accepted it, but not only did they not say a harsh word, they instead comforted me

In my dream, I dreamt of many people

She smiled, she gently touched my hair, slightly furrowing her brows, two deep lines appeared between her eyebrows, and my heart tightened

It was Ye Bihan who opened a bottle of beer. I felt a surge of amusement in my heart: "You are quite thoughtful! However, once you go abroad, you absolutely must not touch this stuff!" I took the beer she handed me, and it emitted a hissing sound.

The years I have missed, you have helped me experience

Aunt Ye could not hide the pain in her heart, but still comforted me: "Qingtong, you need not blame yourself; how could you have controlled the materials that fell from the construction site above?"

Mother, it turns out that growing up is such a painful thing!

He pulled me into his embrace, holding me tightly as if I might slip away at any moment.

I want to go to the highest point in this city to take a good look at it; perhaps after leaving for a year, I will miss it very much

It is easy to be indifferent

"Qingtong, let us have a drink!"

For instance, on a rainy day, I saw that he did not have an umbrella, so I brought one to him, and he smiled at me

Doctor! Is she alright? Has she woken up?

This is the reason why I cannot forget you

Yi Dan swayed unsteadily to Ye Bihan's side, reaching out to touch her hair, and I did not step forward to stop him. He actually began to sob like a child. After Mo Xi and Lin Xiaozhu left the ward, only the three of us remained in the room

After waking up, I intended to fall asleep as soon as possible to complete that fragmented dream, but no matter what, I could no longer sleep.

I no longer look at him, nor do I pay any attention to Moxi, who is standing at the foot of the bed in a daze.

On the way to eat barbecue, we passed by a construction site of a high-rise building, and the noise was so loud that it was irritating. We covered our ears and walked forward with our heads down

The doctor said that the condition is quite serious, and it is difficult to determine when he will wake up

Afterward, we selected a couple's outfit at the mall, purchasing the same women's version, and paraded through the streets wearing them.

He whispered in my ear: "Let's go, we are going home"

At that time, my father was still around, and my mother was not as nagging as she is now. She was very gentle and shy back then, always presenting herself as a little woman in front of my father

I would rather it be me who was struck.

Ye Bihan, despite all my calculations, I never anticipated that you would be hurt. Even if I can no longer encounter his smile, I still do not wish for you to be injured

How wonderful it would be

Why was it not me who was hit

I smiled proudly and said, "With this heroine around, you will miss nothing."

It was during the holiday, and it was nighttime, so the entire campus was unusually quiet. At this moment, there was a sense that this campus belonged to the two of us.

I stood on my tiptoes, striking a pose as if embracing the starry sky, when I heard a sharp crack beside my ear, and I suddenly turned my head.

I swayed my body and walked out of the hospital's main entrance

The rain fell heavier and heavier, and my eyes felt swollen, as if they were about to close. My mother gently patted my back, saying softly, "Xiaotong, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Little Han

I nodded firmly, feeling extremely tired at that moment. After changing into clean clothes, I lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep.

Cheng Qingtong, I give you a thumbs up, fortunately, you remembered this place, otherwise I would have missed such a beautiful scenery

I was just about to cry, but I held back and stood up, glancing at the two of them. After the last conflict, it was difficult for me to envision them in a harmonious scene together. Today, surprisingly, they did not have a conflict and even came to the hospital together, as if they had become a family.

The phone keeps vibrating, yet I do not wish to see anyone or say anything

Little Cottage, you know where my heart is

Isn't love a sweet feeling? Why do I only feel pain?

Her voice suddenly resembled the cool breeze of summer, and also the warm fireplace of winter. I suddenly felt as if I were a child lying in a cradle, listening to my mother sing.

Ye Bihan smiled at me, saying that she has already arrived at her new school and has met quite a few people, assuring me that I need not worry about her

I only feel a chill throughout my body, pacing back and forth at the door of the operating room, never having realized that waiting could be such a difficult and prolonged ordeal

Upon entering the doctor's office, I saw Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye with red eyes. Uncle Ye had a furrowed brow, and I felt a twinge of guilt in my heart; if it were not for me, Xiao Han would not have been injured

Someone knocked on the door loudly, and Moxi went to open it, a figure rushed in.

Family members should first manage their emotions; we will do our utmost to treat her, and the possibility of her waking up cannot be ruled out. We hope for your cooperation

Throughout the journey, we chatted and laughed, feeling no sense of parting, nor did we deliberately think about tomorrow; the present moment is what we should cherish the most.

The three characters "during surgery" serve as a warning light; I often find myself staring at them, causing my eyes great pain. When I try to avoid them and look elsewhere, everything appears blurred.

Alright, enough with the fussing, my ears are getting calloused from all this talk. Are you going to drink or not

I do not know how long I have been squatting like this, it feels as long as a century. A warmth spreads across my back, and my arms are lifted by a pair of strong hands; it is Lin Xiaozhu.

As he pulled me away, we unexpectedly encountered Moxi. I glanced down at the coat of Lin Xiaozhu draped over my shoulders, then looked at him, who appeared somewhat dazed. I wanted to explain, but I felt my body trembling violently, my lips quivering, rendering me unable to speak or make a sound

Blood streamed from her head, staining my clothes, my hands, and even my heart... Her eyes were tightly shut, and no matter how hard I shook her, she remained unresponsive...

I blankly recounted the doctor's exact words to them, feeling a deep pain with every word I uttered. I murmured to myself, "Why wasn't it me who was hit... why..."

I had intended to stop my tears, but they came pouring out again

Apart from being able to wait outside while staring at that light, I find myself unable to do anything else

Lin Xiaozhu: "Qingtong ... ... doctor ... ... what to say ? "

Lin Xiaozhu pointed at my nose and said, "Cheng Qingtong, who do you think you are? Do you think I would take an interest in you? It's simply a joke"

Recently, one phrase she often says is: "Alright, alright, there's no need to bring these things. I'm going abroad, not going to space; if I don't have them, I can buy them." When I was helping her pack at home, I would hear her repeat this phrase to her mother every ten minutes or so.

I do not know why I allowed him to come in at that time. According to common sense, he had previously harmed Ye Bihan, vandalized my family's dry cleaning shop, and even injured me. I should have unhesitatingly asked Lin Xiaozhu to drag him out, and I wouldn't even want to look at him for a second.

Aunt, I am sorry for Xiaohan. If it weren't for me, she would have already arrived at her new school and started a new life by now

No one knows which comes faster, an accident or happiness

You child, why are you still wandering outside in the rain? Why don't you take an umbrella? You are becoming increasingly disobedient, come in quickly and change your clothes

In the final moment, she exerted all her strength to push me out. She was struck by an object and collapsed to the ground.

He smiled faintly in disappointment, walked past me, and left

Ye Bihan, it is truly wonderful to have you here, for with you, I can weave the thread of my more than twenty years of life into an unbroken line

At that moment, it seemed as if there was no sound left in the world, and all that remained in my mind was Ye Bihan alone. I lunged towards her

He probably hesitated for a long time before daring to ask.

However, none of it is true, I was wrong, in the end, I still miscalculated

The doctor removed the mask and wiped his sweat

Perhaps having one more blessing would truly make a difference

I have imagined countless scenarios in which he smiles at me actively

Perhaps even the heavens are showing sympathy for me, as it is currently pouring rain outside, the downpour blurring the entire world. I walked into the rain like this, merging with the water, the coldness of the rain quickly soaking my entire body, gradually numbing my senses

Aunt Ye looked up in surprise, and Uncle Ye was also very surprised

No one expected that something would happen... falling from a great height

After finishing dinner and stepping outside, the sky had already darkened, yet the streets were brightly lit, making it impossible to see the stars. We went together to the school's observatory, which is said to offer the most beautiful view of the city.

I sat in front of her, gazing at her pale face, and for some reason, I suddenly thought of tenderness. I recalled the words that tenderness had spoken to me before, and I felt a deep fear in my heart, fearing that Xiao Han would just leave like this

I raised my glass decisively and clinked it with hers loudly, the beer foam swirling on my tongue, the cool liquid flowing down my chest. Ye Bihan smiled brightly at me, everything remained unchanged, we were still the same as before, together donning our armor, venturing through the world.

Please calm down, this is a hospital, and do not make loud noises, there are other patients here

But why, Moxi Yi, do you always have to be a step late

Moxi's gaze was filled with sorrow, carrying a hint of warmth, as if he wanted to dispel my worries, wishing to offer me a bit of comfort through his eyes. I gently smiled at him, and I thought that smile must have looked even worse than crying

It was only that phrase "I am willing" that had not been spoken, and the dream awakened

Perhaps having one more person truly adds an extra strength

In the face of life and death, what else do I have to let go of? What grudges and resentments do we still hold? Everything is merely fleeting like clouds passing by.

Mother is still the same nagging person, unchanged as ever; it's just that I no longer have the energy to bicker with her like I used to. Water drips down from my body drop by drop, and Mother wraps me up with a towel. I still sneeze every few minutes, unable to stop at all

In recent days, we have completely become conjoined twins, inseparable. She said she wanted to give me a piece of clothing, and of course, I had to help her fulfill her wish, so I accepted without hesitation

All along, the girl in front of me has always been lively and noisy; she has never lain quietly and obediently before me like this. Since the beginning of school until now, it feels like a dream. Many things have happened, yet it seems as if nothing has occurred. When she wakes up, we will still be in our high school classroom, still struggling hard for the college entrance examination. I have not yet met Mo Xi Yi, and she is not preparing to go abroad. Everything is merely a dream. But it also seems as if nothing has happened. When she wakes up, we will still be in our high school classroom, still struggling hard for the college entrance examination. I have not yet met Mo Xi Yi, and she is not preparing to go abroad. Everything is merely a dream.

The memories I have lost are all within your heart

No one expected that thing to come crashing down directly towards me

It was only afterwards that I saw his smile, the corners of his mouth turned upwards, forming a small arc. This was probably the first smile he had actively offered me.

Sure, where would you like to go

I lowered my head and remained silent for a while

With a thunderous sound, thunder rumbled outside

Yet you have never heard, never opened your eyes, and have not responded to me

I felt a sudden heaviness in my heart, as if a heavy stone were pressing down on my chest, making even breathing difficult.

Perhaps even the worst of people have a sincere heart, but they simply present themselves as too wicked

I placed my palm on my heart, feeling its rhythm. Glancing out the window, I said to him: "Someone has long since occupied this place."

I struggled to push him away; he was somewhat reluctant, but as I continued to resist, he eventually let me go

This way, not only will you not be injured, but even Moxi Yi will feel a bit nervous.

A layer of dust covered the steps of the observatory. The two of us crept up quietly, and the chain at the door could be opened just enough for us to squeeze through.

I nodded slightly, pretending to be strong: "Of course, she will definitely wake up, and I will wait here until she does."

However, her mother is also right; it is natural to feel concerned when one has left their hometown to go to such a distant place

Ye Bihan, you must wake up, you absolutely must wake up quickly

But at that moment, you turned and left once again. I do not understand why, even when you are so close, you still refuse to come to my side. Even if it is just to take a look at me now, to say a word of indifferent comfort, such a simple thing, you still cannot do.

We did our best, but her injuries were too severe. Her life has been saved, but it is difficult to say when she will wake up

This makes one feel as if youth has always been so joyful

It was not until a shadow appeared beside me that I realized someone was behind me. When I turned around, I saw Lin Xiaozhu. He looked at my swollen eyes, seemed to want to say something, but after stammering for a long time, he still did not speak.

You stay here to take care of her, there cannot be no one here

When Lin Xiaozhu and Moxi arrived together, I was lost in thought, gazing at her and reflecting on the bits and pieces of the past. I was so absorbed that I didn't even notice when they came in

Lin Xiaozhu saw that the visitor was Yi Dan, and turned to pull him outside. However, to her surprise, Yi Dan was incredibly strong and refused to let go of the door. Although Mo Xi knew that Yi Dan had wronged Ye Bihan, he was still Yi Dan's friend, and it seemed that Yi Dan was not here to cause trouble today, so he chose not to intervene

She said, Xiaotong, do not be afraid, mother is here

As long as she is present, it is the greatest comfort to me

However, if it weren't for Xiao Han pushing me away in time, today I should be the one lying on the hospital bed

Their actions immediately ceased, and Lin Xiaozhu was somewhat perplexed, yet she slowly released her grip

Bang

I turned my gaze to the corner where we often sat, and it seemed that Ye Bihan was sitting there, laughing joyfully, occasionally gesturing towards me across the table, commenting and critiquing. Those were such happy times

I just let Lin Xiaozhu lead me forward. Mo Xi silently followed behind us, and at that moment, I truly hoped he would catch up, take me away from Lin Xiaozhu, and bring me to his side. I longed for the person who would say to me, "Let's go, we are going home," to be him

Qingtong, do not torment yourself like this; if you continue this way, it will make me very sad

So I want to say, Ye Bihan, it is truly wonderful to have you

The fear within me is gradually consuming me, and I am afraid that I will never see her again from this day forward

I kept my head down, and my appearance of crying and laughing seemed to frighten him. He tightened his arm and pulled me into his embrace... I just let him hold me like that

Whether in the bustling crowd or amidst the pouring rain, I can always recognize your figure at a glance. Your slightly lonely silhouette, your sharply defined profile, and the clean, pleasant scent have entered my dreams more than once

My body suddenly stiffened, as I initially thought he merely wanted to comfort me, but at this moment, I already had a rough idea of what he was about to say.

Cai Qihang has found a promising entrepreneurial project, which is gradually getting on track, and he has also started a new relationship with his girlfriend; they are deeply in love with each other

Qingtong, I must admit that I have fallen for you, and I have liked you for a long time. I have never been so attentive to a girl before; you are the first. Just think about it, if it weren't for you, why would I have gone out of my way to save you late at night without even touching you? Why would I help you find so many brothers to deal with that Yi Dan? And why would I inexplicably feel angry when I see you with Moxi? ... Qingtong, if you are willing, let me protect you; I will not let you suffer even the slightest harm! ... Qingtong, if you are willing, let me protect you; I will not let you suffer even the slightest harm!

Outside the window, a solitary figure stands there, the rain blurring his features and soaking his clothes. Yet, no matter how indistinct the view may be, I can still clearly recognize that it is him, Moxi Yi

Countdown of one day

The ambulance arrived, and they took you away from my side. My heart was almost being tugged by you the entire time. You entered the operating room, and the words "Surgery in Progress" were continuously illuminated above.

The time I have forgotten, will you remember

At that moment, the doctor arrived at the ward and informed us to go and hear the final results. I hurriedly followed the doctor to the office, and Yi Dan, who also wanted to follow, was stopped by me

Lin Xiaozhu's gaze drifted to the window, where he saw Mo Xi standing there just a moment ago, and he also saw the figure turning away. When he turned back to look at me, my face had long been etched with sorrow and sadness

Why? Why is growth so difficult

Let him in

I was stunned, my heart was racing. The doctor came out, drenched in sweat, with a furrowed brow.

How I wish that my beautiful dreams would come true

The doctor, with a grave expression, held the examination report and said: "The patient's condition is quite serious; currently, they are in a vegetative state"

Our emotions were quite low; after leaving the office, I stopped Aunt Ye.

Why have you never thought to strive for it?

I must say, he truly has the ability to move people in this manner

Uncle Ye smiled and said: "Qingtong, don't say that. If you were Xiaohan at that time, you would have done the same. In the hearts of your uncle and aunt, you and Xiaohan are the same; both of you are our daughters..."

Lin Xiaozhu suddenly placed his hand on my shoulder, and I had no choice but to look up at him. His gaze was rarely so gentle; the one who was always arrogant, domineering, and passionate was now standing before me with deep affection.

A circle of people surrounded us, someone called for an ambulance, and I just sat beside her, crying uncontrollably.

"You may sit down. The doctor just cannot specify when she will wake up, which means she will eventually wake up. So... do not worry." After I said this, it felt as though I was comforting myself.

I can finally cry out loud without restraint or concern. I leaned on my mother's shoulder, allowing the tears to flow freely; her slender shoulder has become my most solid refuge at this moment

However, when I looked closely, I realized that the person sitting there was not her, and the one opposite her was not me either; it was merely two unfamiliar women having coffee.

For example, he was moved by me, he realized that he had truly fallen in love with me, and then he smiled at me

Unknowingly, I found myself at a coffee shop that I often visited with Ye Bihan. Due to the rain, there seemed to be few people inside the coffee shop. From the outside looking in, it appeared warm and cozy. A few friends sat at a table, chatting and enjoying coffee, what a delightful life it must be

Uncle Ye: "Cooperate, we will definitely cooperate well. As long as it can cure my daughter, any form of cooperation is acceptable..."

After tidying up, Ye Bihan said: "Qingtong, let's go out for a walk"

Lin Xiaozhu saw me lost in thought again, so he took the initiative to step forward. He gently squeezed my arm and said softly, "Qingtong, it's alright. Xiao Han is just tired and wants to sleep in. Once she has had enough rest, she will naturally wake up. Let's wait for her to wake up together."

I can't take care of the other patients! Hurry up and treat her for me... I was pulled away, the doctor walked far off, and my tears had already blurred my vision, making it impossible to see anything. After crying for a while in place, I suddenly became a bit more alert, stood up, and rushed into her hospital room.

I felt heartbroken for her and did not want her to worry about me any further, so I immediately wiped away my tears and stood up from the ground

It is said that when ostriches encounter danger, they always bury their heads in the ground, believing that if they cannot see the danger, they are safe. At this moment, I am like an ostrich; self-deception is the only way I can escape.

It may be quite normal to hear a boy confess his feelings to the girl he loves, but if that boy were Lin Xiaozhu, it would be different. He has always been known for treating relationships as a game, and to hear him say such words at this moment is truly surprising.

Why is it so difficult for you to take a step towards me?

Cheng Qingtong! Do you really have to demean yourself like this? Do you not know that everyone is looking for you? Can't you spare me some worry?

Ye Bihan has only three days left before going abroad. She has been busy preparing all day, and by now, everything is basically in order.

At this very moment, I suddenly feel that those past trivial disputes are nothing significant. Now, in the face of true life and death, perhaps we should adopt a more open-minded perspective.

Finally, someone has criticized me, and I no longer have to engage in self-criticism continuously; this is quite good

I am particularly afraid that he will say: "Sorry, we tried our best"
