Pandora's Box

But when I was about to lose heart, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

"What?! Did it match?" When I received Ke Luo's news, I couldn't believe it, so much so that I made a noise in the library and was immediately kicked out.

"Are there any new volunteers? Are the high-resolution matches compatible? Ahhh, great!"

Shu Nian actually found a new matching bone marrow, and this time the donor was firm and highly cooperative.

This is simply a corner.

Could it be that my prayers have worked?

Everything that followed was like pressing the fast-forward button, and it worked extremely efficiently.

Shu Nian quickly arranged for the operation, everyone was afraid of long nights and dreams, and his body couldn't wait.

This time everything went very well—the donor was very cooperative, his (or her) donated bone marrow was also very cooperative, the operation was a success, and there was no postoperative rejection.

In short, everything is so happy that there is almost no sense of reality.

When Shu Nian was about to be discharged from the hospital, everyone was beaming, preparing for his discharge.

It is a touching and joyful thing to witness a life break free from the shadow of death and stay with the one he loves.

But when I confirmed the celebration process, I couldn't help asking Ke Luo: "You even invited LEE?"

"Correct."

I was puzzled: "Why? First of all, LEE's personality hates this kind of occasion, and secondly, they are not at odds. Are you trying to make things difficult for both parties?"

"Are you sure he will hate it? He likes to be lively."

I said: "There is only one possibility for LEE to appear in the hospital willingly, and that is that the person lying on the hospital bed is himself."

"..." Ke Luo thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's inappropriate. However, I still want him to participate more in our affairs, otherwise he will become more and more like an outsider. Moreover, if he really If you don’t want to come, he will naturally refuse.”

That's true, no one gets LEE by force.

To my surprise, on the day Shu Nian was discharged from the hospital, LEE actually came.

And no one forced him with a knife, he was really willing to come.

However, the other person has come, but it seems that the heart is completely absent.

He didn't seem to intend to, and he couldn't blend into the joyous atmosphere of the scene.

When everyone was celebrating, he didn't respond, he just stood far away from the crowd all the time, sticking to the door, absent-mindedly eating the piece of cake that was given to him, as if he was ready to flee the scene at any time.

Then the door of the ward opened suddenly and slapped him on the face.

I:"……"

I almost laughed out loud.

The person who came in was in a hurry, and said a few words in Ke Luo's ear.

Ke Luo frowned slightly, and then said to us: "I wanted to invite the bone marrow donor, but I couldn't find it. Not only did he ask the doctor to keep it secret, but even the registration information was fake. of."

LEE closed the door back silently, touched his nose, and continued to eat his cake.

Everyone discussed.

"Maybe the other party just doesn't want to be disturbed by others, that's why they defended so well."

"But in this way, we will feel owed, and we should show our hearts."

"Some people just want to do good deeds and don't ask for anything in return."

Shu Nian said with emotion, "It's an unsung hero."

I saw LEE rolling his eyes vividly and for a long time by the door, wondering if he was choking on the cake.

The door opened again, and LEE and his cake were slapped behind the door again.

I:"……"

Director Liu, who was in charge of the operation, came in and greeted everyone with a friendly smile: "Sorry, I'm late!"

Before LEE could come out from behind the door, he was slapped on the wall again—the door opened again, and another doctor came in.

LEE, who was caught one after another, finally let out a weak voice: "Damn..."

I:"……"

It's not that I'm heartless, it's just too funny.

Director Liu hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, this is Dr. Zhu who helped collect the bone marrow..."

The young doctor apologized repeatedly to LEE: "I'm sorry, I'm not sorry!" He looked at each other, he said "ah", and said with a smile: "You are here too? They said they couldn't contact you anyway, I thought you were It’s because I don’t want to meet with patients, so I leave a false address.”

LEE seemed to freeze for a few seconds before he said indifferently, "You got the wrong person."

Dr. Zhu was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately showed embarrassment, and said quickly: "Ah, I'm so sorry! It's because I don't have a good memory, haha..."

The room was quiet for a while, and LEE suddenly said quickly, "I have something to do, so I'm leaving first!"

Before everyone could react, he almost rushed out of the door—literally, because he almost knocked the door away and carried it away.

LEE walked suddenly and fast, leaving the whole room staring at each other in silence.

The atmosphere became inexplicably weird, and I didn't dare to chew the strawberry chocolate chips on the cake in my mouth.

It was Ke Luo who spoke first: "So, is it him?"

"..."

No one answered for a while, only Zhuo Wenyang said quietly: "From this point of view, he must be the bone marrow donor."

The chocolate chip I was sucking slowly fell onto the plate.

I don't know how to describe what happened next, but Ke Luo immediately chased him out, and the rest of us fell into a deeper silence and bewilderment.

After Ke Luo caught up with LEE, how did the two communicate and what did they communicate with each other? Although I am full of gossip, I don't know.Anyway, when he came to look for me, he looked sullen like he had quarreled with LEE.

But the two of them always quarreled according to three meals a day, and I said I was used to it.

But this time, apart from being depressed, Ke Luo was also faintly excited.

Ke Luo asked me: "Don't you think this is strange?"

I nodded again and again: "Yes, I didn't know that LEE would actually go to donate. Doesn't he hate Shu Nian to death?"

"Not this," Ke Luo said. "The point is, why did he do this match?"

"..."

"The odds of matching are too low. Ordinary people, who are not relatives or relatives, would not try this kind of luck, would they?"

"..."

Ke Luo said decisively: "So, he knows that he has a chance to match up with Shu Nian."

I widened my eyes.

"what do you mean……"

Dog blood novels dare not write like this!

Ke Luo's eyes sparkled: "This can't be a pure coincidence, right? It's not for nothing that they look alike."

"Ohhh!" I exclaimed excitedly.This is so exciting (harmonious)!

"This guy, LEE, is so tight-lipped! He hasn't told anyone about such a big matter!"

"He is like this, and only he knows many things," Ke Luo said, "It seems that no one can enter his world, including you and me."

"Then can Shu Nian get in?"

Ke Luo was silent for a moment: "That's a good question."

"Maybe Shu Nian is really different to him," I analyzed, "It's not me, LEE is actually quite independent, he is definitely not someone who likes to do this kind of voluntary donation. Firstly, he was afraid of losing money, and secondly, he was afraid of pain. This time, for Shu Nian, he has suffered both. Think about it, he can go back on his promises temporarily, and he is still rushing to send it up! If this is not counted Blood is thicker than water, then I will never believe in love again!"

Ke Luo thought for a while and asked, "Then do you think LEE will admit his relationship with Shu Nian?"

"I don't know." The excitement at the beginning passed, and I calmed down, and I also had a little hesitation, "After all, he made the donation without telling everyone. If it wasn't accidentally exposed, he would never plan to let others know. ?”

Ke Luo looked thoughtful.

"Wait, did you tell Shu Nian about this?"

"Not yet, but I went to him later to insinuate. He doesn't seem to remember that he has an older brother. He was too young when he entered the orphanage, maybe only two or three years old, so he doesn't remember much."

"It's no wonder LEE is unwilling to admit it generously. After all, the other party doesn't remember him at all," I sighed a little, "Shu Nian is his last relative in this world, right?"

I only know that LEE was born in poverty back then, because once when he was drunk, he scolded his gambling father who died early in front of me.

He was gnashing his teeth and looked a little bit on the verge of tears. I thought the short choking moment when he didn't speak was because of the rotten gambling father who sold everything in the family.

Maybe not now.

Ke Luo asked, "Do you think the two brothers should recognize each other?"

I was also a little unsure: "What do you think?"

"I think people need family affection."

"is it?"

"I used to think that maybe I didn't need it, but after meeting my dad, I feel really different," Ke Luo said slowly, "I have a lot more sense of belonging to this world. How should I put it, it's like, life There is a way home."

"..."

I thought of myself.

When I realized that my dad was not my real father, I was so confused and lost.

Although Cheng Yichen is very good to me and can make up for my lack of emotional fatherly love in many things, it is still not enough after all. I know in my heart that he is not related to me by blood.

There is no blood bondage in this world, so when I wake up in the dead of night, I will feel an erratic sense of loneliness, faintly feeling that I have no home to return to.

If there is a chance to reconcile with my biological father, even if there is some resistance, do I really not desire it in my heart?

LEE always acted like he didn't care about anything, he didn't seem to need these worldly concerns.

But am I not doing the same thing myself?

If he's my kind of guy, that's what he should want.

Ke Luo asked again: "What do you think?"

We looked at each other for a while, and we both saw each other's answers in each other's eyes.

"But it's impossible for LEE to take the initiative to break through this layer of window paper."

"If the mountain doesn't go to Muhammad's side, let Muhammad come to the mountain side."

Ke Luo said, "Then I'll persuade LEE tomorrow."

I volunteered: "I'll go find Shu Nian."

Ke Luo nodded: "Okay. When the time comes, you can directly bring Shu Nian to LEE's house, and we will solve this problem on the spot."

Shu Nian has just been discharged from the hospital and is still recuperating in T City. I came to visit the next day. Shu Nian is a delicate and considerate person. He probably noticed that I would go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. In order to let me relax and talk, he sent Xie Yan away. up.

After I told our guess, he was surprised: "So, is he my brother?"

"It is very likely. Of course, further verification is needed. I think the two of you can have a face-to-face meeting. Would you like to?"

His whole body became radiant, making his thin and plain face vivid: "Of course I am willing!"

"However, LEE may not cooperate," I said cautiously, "he has a good heart, but his mouth is bad and awkward. He may say some hurtful things, don't mind... ..."

Shu Nian smiled, and said, "Don't think of me as weak."

On the car to LEE's apartment, Shu Nian and I imagined the scenes of brothers meeting all the way, some were cold, some were enthusiastic, some were embarrassing. It made me tense up.

Then Shu Nian's phone rang suddenly, I glanced at the caller ID, it was Ke Luo.

I was suddenly excited: "Is there any progress?"

Shu Nian answered the phone and turned on the speakerphone: "Hello?"

A voice came from over there: "Shu Nian..."

Then there was a strange sound, and the call was suddenly cut off without warning.

I was very surprised: "What's wrong?"

Shu Nian called back again, but it was already unavailable.I called Lee, but no one answered.

"What happened?"

"They won't be, are they fighting?"

Shu Nian was surprised: "Is it possible? I think LEE is a gentleman."

I can only say: "The two of them are indeed gentle people apart, but together they often fight like cats and dogs."

"..."

In addition to the tense atmosphere in the car, there was also a touch of weirdness.

When I arrived at the door of LEE’s apartment, I rang the doorbell frantically, but there was no answer. I simply took out the key and opened the door. A while ago, LEE was afraid that he would lose the key and forget it, so he just left a spare with me.

As soon as the door opened, Shu Nian and I were both stunned.

They were indeed fighting.

But it's not the kind of fight we imagined.

I stared dumbfounded at the entanglement between LEE and Ke Luo in the living room.Both of them looked disheveled, and Ke Luo had half of his trousers off.

"???" I said, "Did I bother you?"

Ke Luo had already gotten away immediately, and stood aside without saying a word, his face flushed, and he didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry.

LEE was still lying on the ground, he was neither ashamed nor annoyed, although his face was not good-looking, but he was very calm and generous, he just smiled and said: "Xiao Jing, do me a favor."

"Huh? ==??"

His face was pale, but he still smiled: "My wound seems to be open."

We sent LEE to the hospital in a hurry. The wound on his stomach from the previous appendicitis operation really collapsed, so he went into the operating room again and had it stitched up again.

During LEE's operation and postoperative drowsiness, it was our turn to wait outside with Shu Nian.

From time to time, Shu Nian and I could chat, but Ke Luo remained silent.

In this awkward atmosphere, I was too embarrassed to talk to him, and even avoided looking at him.

Why the two of them fought hand to hand, and what happened during the hand to hand fight, I don't know, and I dare not ask.

After LEE woke up, I went to visit for a round, chatted with LEE for a while, and ate more than half of the food I brought. LEE seemed to be indifferent, so that I was a little worried. Does he really need Shu Nian?

When it was Shu Nian's turn to go in and visit, Ke Luo finally said, "You don't have to doubt, he is your brother."

I quietly peeked through the gap in the shutter to watch the interaction of the two people inside.The long section ahead was rather boring, Shu Nian sat there quietly and patiently peeling apples, and LEE Zai was also patiently dressing up and pretending to sleep, which made me yawn endlessly.

Until later, LEE finally seemed to be unable to pretend anymore.

I couldn't hear what they said, but at the end I saw them hugging each other, and LEE seemed to be crying.

I couldn't help but burst into an aunt's smile.

so good.

This is much happier than I imagined.

Can I have a day like this too?
