when you look at me

Yuan Yiping and Wang Jingjing sat outside the ward, neither of them spoke.Wang Jingjing sobbed softly, Yuan Yiping's eyes were straightened, and his curled fingers trembled faintly.

The patients and nurses who came and went seemed to be familiar with this scene, and they just glanced at it lightly when passing by.

Yes, in this place, everyone is dealing with sickness and death, who can take care of whom?

I don't know how long he sat like this, until the smell of food wafted into Yuan Yiping's nose, and he came back to his senses.

Walking was a slim girl, carrying a packaged meal.She is 1.7 meters tall, has a long face and big eyes, and her face is like a peach blossom—if her eye sockets are not red and swollen like walnuts.

"You are..." The girl's voice was hoarse.

Yuan Yiping stood up: "I am Yuan Yiping, a student of Teacher Cui."

"Oh," she pursed her lips, her face was haggard, but her tone was soft: "...Thank you for visiting my mother."

"Should be," Yuan Yiping looked at her red fingers strangled by the plastic bag, and asked, "Here...do you need my help?"

"No, thank you," she glanced into the ward, and whispered, "The doctor said, it's too late." As soon as she finished speaking, two lines of tears flowed from her eyes.

"Of course——" a man's voice came from behind her, Yuan Yiping raised his eyes following the voice, his eyes flickered——he actually saw Wang Yuan walking quickly!

Wang Yuan?Why is Wang Yuan here? !

Wang Yuan obviously saw Yuan Yiping too, but he didn't react at all. He put his arms around Teacher Cui's daughter's shoulders, lowered his head and said softly, "Go in, Dad hasn't eaten yet."

Wang Yuan was tall and broad-shouldered, still the same as when we met last time. He was wearing a neat shirt and trousers. Teacher Cui's daughter lay on his shoulders and wiped the tears from her face, which made her look even more charming.

He took her into the ward, and Yuan Yiping stood there, staring at their backs in astonishment.

"Senior, that's Teacher Cui's daughter, Song Ran," Wang Jingjing thought that Yuan Yiping didn't know the identity of the person, and explained, "That man is her... her fiance, right? Teacher Cui asked me to visit her once before. I had dinner at home and heard that they are getting married soon."

Yuan Yiping watched Wang Yuan take out the lunch box from the plastic bag through a small pane of glass on the door of the ward, bent down and handed it to Teacher Song; Arranged neatly; at the end, he put his arms around Teacher Cui's daughter again, stroking her hair with his palm.

What a filial and diligent son-in-law.

Yuan Yiping stared blankly at all this, no matter how he thought about it, he would never expect to see Wang Yuan again on this occasion.

Teacher Cui's daughter, does she know who Wang Yuan is?Did she know that Wang Yuan was pestering Liang Yuyi not long ago?She knew—no, she knew nothing.

Yuan Yiping slumped back to the chair.

After a while, Wang Yuan unscrewed the door and came out. He glanced at Yuan Yiping and Wang Jingjing expressionlessly, and said, "Go downstairs for a cigarette?"

Yuan Yiping nodded and said to Wang Jingjing, "I'll go down for a while."

There were still tears in Wang Jingjing's eyes, her expression was a little dazed, obviously she didn't understand why Yuan Yiping suddenly wanted to smoke with Teacher Cui's son-in-law.But Yuan Yiping had no intention of explaining, he just got up and followed Wang Yuan away.

Entering the elevator, going downstairs, and walking to the small garden downstairs of the inpatient department, the two of them were silent all the way.

Standing still by the pool in the garden, Wang Yuan lit a cigarette and asked after a few puffs, "Xiao Yuan, do you have a good relationship with Teacher Cui?"

Yuan Yiping felt his brain was in a mess, and replied: "Yes, Teacher Cui is the best teacher I have ever seen..."

Wang Yuan nodded, and after a few seconds, he said thoughtfully, "Well, Mr. Cui and Mr. Song are both very good people. What happened to Mr. Cui is because God is short-sighted." Smoke in mouth.

Yuan Yiping looked at Wang Yuan, Wang Yuan's face was expressionless behind the gray-blue smoke.

"So you," Yuan Yi decided to say it calmly: "You and Teacher Cui's daughter are about to get married, and you still pester Liang Yuyi?"

"Entanglement?" Wang Yuan took a flat look at Yuan Xieyuan, and then smiled: "Liang Yuyi told you that?"

Yuan Yiping didn't speak.

Wang Yuan looked Yuan Yiping up and down, and said slowly: "It seems that you and Liang Yuyi have a good relationship, do you have a good relationship? It doesn't matter, I just want to tell you, don't believe what Liang Yuyi says. Go and ask carefully. Ask Liang Yuyi, should I pester her? She is worthy of me pestering her."

A burst of fire rose in Yuan Yiping's chest: "Then what are you?" He remembered what Liang Yuyi said about Wang Yuanbao's disclosure of nude photos of female classmates during his research.

Wang Yuan smiled again, with a very indifferent expression: "Do you think that the daughter of your beloved teacher is with me, and you are blind? If you want to talk, go tell Song Ran and tell her whether I am worthy or not." Fuck her—not the first person to say that anyway."

Wang Yuan's attitude is simply rogue, Yuan Yiping doesn't know why he called him down.

"Okay," Wang Yuan put out his half-smoked cigarette on the flower bed: "I really didn't expect you to be Teacher Cui's student—I don't know what Liang Yuyi said to you, anyway, I didn't do anything and I'm sorry for her." At this juncture, don't talk nonsense to Teacher Song and Song Ran."

It turned out to be the case.

Yuan Yiping thought, Wang Yuan was still afraid of what Mr. Song and Song Ran knew, even though Yuan Yiping didn't know the specific content of this "what".

Yuan Yiping nodded: "I won't talk nonsense without evidence. I'm leaving. If there is anything wrong with Mr. Cui... please let me know."

Wang Yuan: "Okay, I will inform you."

Yuan Yiping was alone, even forgot to call Wang Jingjing, and walked out of the hospital in a daze.Standing at the bus stop outside the hospital, you can see the brightly lit inpatient building.The teacher Cui he was familiar with was inside, and he was already ignorant.Yuan Yiping thought masochistically, what did Teacher Cui think of during the moment of cerebral infarction?Her daughter's marriage, unfinished projects, or maybe she didn't know that she was about to enter eternal darkness?So what was Yuan Yizhi thinking when he saw his test report again and again and knew that he was going to die step by step?Did he cry quietly?Death—death comes so quickly.

It's too late to prepare well, and it's too late to say goodbye.Like a few people walking side by side, suddenly the ground cracked, and one person was separated from the others, and was left in place forever.

At 47:[-] a.m. that night, Wang Yuan called to say that Teacher Cui had passed away.
