Cong Xue stared at him intently, the previous unhappiness was swept away at this moment, replaced by her constantly blushing cheeks.

It turns out that being sick is good, at least brother Yichen will care about her a little bit.

At this time, Gu Yichen was obviously a little uncomfortable being looked at by Cong Xue's overly hot eyes, and asked softly,

"Is there something on my face?"

Cong Xue immediately shook her head exaggeratedly upon hearing this, her eyes widened.

"Hey, I was wondering why Brother Yichen was so kind to me?"

Gu Yichen didn't expect Cong Xue to say such a thing, but the expression on his face didn't change, he still kept a heartwarming smile,

"Aren't we engaged? Of course we have to treat you well."

Cong Xue looked at the jade-like man in front of her with a serious face, and then said a little shyly,

"So, shall we get married?"

"Of course~" Gu Yichen shook his head amusedly, and then covered her eyes.

"Sleep peacefully, I'll be with you."

"Uh-huh."

It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night after Cong Xue's infusion. When she walked out of the hospital, the cold wind blew in. Cong Xue was only wearing a short skirt, and she was a little afraid of the cold just after the infusion. The weather was too much for her to bear.

While complaining, he suddenly felt warmth in his shoulders, and then his whole body seemed to warm up. He turned his head and saw that it was Gu Yichen who took off his coat and put it on her body.

"The weather is getting colder, so it's better to wear an extra layer when you go out."

While helping her put on her coat, Gu Yichen did not forget to carefully warn the shivering person in front of her.

Cong Xue stood on the spot and let him put on his clothes. She blushed instantly, lowered her head in embarrassment, and whispered a thank you. I don't know if Gu Yichen heard it.

Along the way, Gu Yichen drove the car very seriously, and Cong Xue occasionally glanced at him, and her handsome profile made her happy.

To be honest, it was the first time to stay alone with him for such a long time, most of them were her, An An and the others, and as she thought, Brother Yichen in private was just as kind and gentle as he was usually.

Maybe it was because she envied An An to be loved so much by Gu Yichen, so she always hoped that one day Brother Yichen would treat her like that, hold her in the palm of his hand, and love her with all his heart.

And from the first time she met Gu Yichen, she fell in love with this gentle and jade-like man in front of her, and she once hoped to be with him.

But gradually she discovered that he treated other people with the same courtesy. Therefore, the bud of her love was strangled in the cradle before it woke up, and she gradually let go of this love. .

During the few years in the United States, I sometimes saw him coming to see An An, but I knew that Gu Yichen would not like me, so I treated him as a friend.

Up to now, she really can't believe that they are actually engaged.

"What are you thinking about?"

Gu Yichen, who was driving, spoke suddenly, and immediately pulled Cong Xue back who was still wandering.

Cong Xue glanced at Gu Yichen, blushing and hesitated to speak,

"Brother Yichen, I...actually want to ask you a question."

"Huh? What's the problem?"

Gu Yichen didn't turn his head, but concentrated on turning the car around an intersection.

"You...why would you want to be engaged to me?"

After asking this question, Cong Xue instantly felt extremely ashamed.

Unexpectedly, the person next to him laughed out loud, with a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

"Xiaoxue, why do you ask this question?"

"I……"

Cong Xue was speechless, could she say that she just wanted to ask him why?

But having said that, it seems that Brother Yichen has never had a girlfriend before, and he has never even found an ambiguous partner. How can there be such a good man who keeps himself clean?

When Cong Xue was still thinking about how to express her feelings simply and rudely, Gu Yichen spoke again,

"I don't want An An to be wronged. I'm not in good health, so I can't stay with her for long, so if there is a woman in the future who can treat An An as well as I do, or even better than me, I will be satisfied."

Hearing this, Cong Xue felt inexplicably sad for some reason, and couldn't help hugging her arm.

Seeing her like this, Gu Yichen thought she was very cold, so he hurriedly turned up the temperature in the car,

"Is this better?"

"Well, much better."

The car arrived at the door of Cong Xue's house not long after. Cong Xue got off the car, took off her coat and handed it to Gu Yichen, but Gu Yichen took the clothes and put it back on Cong Xue's body, softly said,

"It's not convenient for me to drive in the car. You have to walk a short distance to go back. You'd better wear it. You just finished the transfusion and your body is cold."

Cong Xue nodded when she heard the words, and smiled reservedly,

"Thank you Brother Yichen."

"Well, it's getting late, so I'll go back first."

"be careful on the road."

"I know." After speaking, Gu Yichen, who was about to drive away, suddenly stopped and walked in front of Cong Xue.

He looked at her fixedly for a while, then put his hands on her face, and kissed her lightly on the forehead,

"Go back to bed early."

Until Gu Yichen drove away, Cong Xue still hadn't recovered,

"Brother Yichen just now, did you kiss her?"

It was already evening when Xia Qingning returned home by plane. After taking a shower, she began to tidy up the things here.

I also made a phone call with the owner of the house I was renting to discuss the lease term of the house, and agreed on a handover time so that the house could be rented out in time.

After solving this problem, Xia Qingning felt a little thirsty and was about to get up to drink a glass of water, but unexpectedly, she fell back on the sofa after feeling dizzy, her face turned pale in an instant, and her breathing became difficult.

Xia Qingning closed her eyes tightly and clenched her fists, forcing herself to calm down, taking deep breaths to adjust her breath, she knew that no one could help her at this time, except herself.

After a while, Xia Qingning gradually recovered, her eyes filled with sadness, she knew that she had reached her limit after all, after all these years, it was the first time she felt so powerless and uneasy.

She used to not faint once for a long time, but she did it several times in just a few days, and now it's just one of the usual ones, Xia Qingning didn't tell Zhang Shaojun much about these things.

She knew that once she let him know, this person would definitely put down her work and fly over immediately. She didn't want to delay his affairs, so every time Zhang Shaojun called, Xia Qingning deliberately kept it from him.

Feeling a slight pain in her heart, Xia Qingning lay down quietly, which relieved a lot.

The next morning, Xia Qingning went out, and now she gradually found that she was very lethargic, probably related to her illness, but she didn't want to waste the rest of her time on a bed, so every day Set the alarm to wake her up.

Although it was very difficult, Xia Qingning endured and got up.

The air in the morning is humid, with a salty smell, the breeze blows, and the face feels cool. The temperature is not very high in the morning at this time of year. Xia Qingning is wearing a light green coat to wrap herself warmly, and she doesn't feel it how cold.

As soon as I turned around the intersection of the community, I saw Aunt Zhao, who was in charge of cleaning their building, sweeping the garbage on the ground in front.

Seeing Xia Qingning approaching, she quickly stood up and greeted her warmly.

"Lime, you woke up so early?"

"Well, the air is good in the morning, come out and breathe fresh air."

Xia Qingning smiled slightly and responded with the same enthusiasm. "Why haven't I seen you during this period of time? I wondered if you had moved away, why didn't you tell me, and I was afraid that you would dislike my old woman for being too wordy."

Aunt Zhao said with a full face of reproach, which made Xia Qingning feel a little embarrassed. Aunt Zhao usually takes good care of her, but since I haven't seen her for such a long time, I have to blame her.

"Aunt Zhao, if I move away, how can I not tell you? I still think that no matter where I move, I have to take you with me, so that my place will be cleaner than anyone else. "

After listening, Aunt Zhao quickly poked Xia Qingning in front of her,

"Well, you bad girl, don't exhaust me to death, I'm exhausted cleaning this place now, and you still think about how to torture me, an old woman, in the future?

Look at the garbage I collected, "

Aunt Zhao said as she tore open her garbage bag with an indignant expression on her face,

"I don't know who is wicked. After smoking a lot of cigarettes here, he is not afraid of getting sick? It also caused me to sweep here for a long time."

Xia Qingning leaned over and took a look, then said with a smile,

"So many cigarette butts must not have been smoked by one person. It may be that the young people who have just moved in chatted here for a while, and left these cigarette butts."

Hearing what Xia Qingning said, Aunt Zhao couldn't help but frowned and thought about it. A few young people seemed to have moved into the building a few days ago, so it should be them.

"Next time I see them, I have to educate them well, otherwise I will be exhausted."

Xia Qingning exchanged a few more words with Aunt Zhao, and then walked out of the community.

This kind of life made Xia Qingning feel inexplicably at ease, even more at ease than ever before.

Every morning when I go out, I always meet Aunt Zhao who complains.

In the morning, she likes to go to Aunt Zhang's porridge shop to drink corn porridge. It seems that since she moved here, it has become a daily habit.

In the evening, she would go for a walk in the nearby park, watch the new square dance practiced by the aunts, watch the old people talking and laughing with the children, sometimes she would be pulled in to dance twice, and she could dance completely without knowing it down.

In the past, she liked to be quiet and never took the initiative to deal with anyone. After her mother passed away, her character was even more unapproachable.

But ever since she became ill, she has become more cheerful for no reason, caring about people's sorrows and joys, and liking their laughter and laughter. Even Zhang Shaojun was shocked when he saw her at that time, saying that it was simply It's like a different person.

But happiness is often short-lived, and soon she will bid farewell to the world she has lived in for more than twenty years. If you say nostalgia, there is actually not so much reluctance. If you say nostalgia, there is actually nothing to be nostalgic about. It was Gu Qiaoan who made her worry.
