I want to accompany you to the end of time

Chapter 60 Reconciliation
Xia Nuo's life has changed from two o'clock and one line every day to three o'clock and one line, home-company-hospital.

This day, she just got off work, bought some food and went to the hospital to visit her mother. At the end of the corridor, she saw Father Xia's figure from afar.

The father in her impression was a selfish and irresponsible person, and Xia Nuo's affection for him was not as deep as that of her mother.

After her mother fell ill, Xia Nuo's feelings for him, which had been eased with great difficulty, deteriorated again. She hated herself but hated him even more. She always believed that her mother's illness was left behind by working hard for the family.

It was later discovered that he was silent most of the time, and that kind of silence was not a calm attitude towards things, but rather helplessness and fear.

The winter night came very quickly. At 06:30, it was already dark. Father Xia stood by the window, with a cigarette in his finger, looking ethereally at the dark outside.

I don't know what I'm looking at, or I can't see anything.

It was only at this time that Xia Nuo realized that the man in front of him had grown old, his temples were gray, and his figure was not as tall and straight as he saw when he was young.

For a long time, Xia Nuo just stared at him like this, with an inexplicable feeling in his heart, that long corridor was like a passage of time, half in the past and half in the future.

Father Xia took a puff of cigarette, and then coughed violently. Xia Nuo came back to his senses, walked over, and called him softly: "Dad."

Father Xia raised his head from his cough, and cast a glance at her, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, he hastily covered his expression.

Xia Nuo noticed his red eye sockets.

Father Xia pinched out the cigarette and said, "Didn't I tell you to go back to rest tonight? Why are you still here? You are tired these days."

Xia Nuo ignored his question and asked him: "Why are you here alone, where is my mother?"

"Xiaoxing is here, I'm chatting with her, so I'll come out to get some air." Father Xia turned his head and looked out the window after finishing speaking.

Xia Nuo stepped closer, stood beside him, and looked out of the dark window like him. The two stood side by side, and occasionally other patients, family members, or doctors passed by behind them.

After a while, Xia Nuo heard him say: "Nuo Nuo, these years, it's Dad who's sorry for you."

Xia Nuo was taken aback, she never thought he would say such a thing, the father in her impression was a man who would be arrogant and would not bow to anyone even if he was wrong, and today he would actually say sorry to her.

"I'm sorry, Dad was wrong."

Xia Nuo had a sore nose and lowered her head. She had waited too long for this sentence, but now that she heard it, she felt so uncomfortable and indescribable.

She turned her head to look at her father, and suddenly felt that everything before was not important, as long as the family was together in the future, it would be good.

Xia Nuo smiled reassuringly at him and said, "Dad, let's go back, Mom is waiting for us."

Father Xia looked at her with a complicated expression, and after a while, slightly twitching the corners of his mouth, he replied, "Okay, let's go back."

Back in the ward, Gu Xiaoxing didn't know what he was talking about with Xia's mother, which made Xia's mother laugh.

Xia Nuo: "What are you talking about? I'm so happy, I heard my mother's devilish laughter at the door." While talking, he took out the porridge he bought and put it on the table to cool.

Gu Xiaoxing's face darkened, and he pretended to be angry: "That's a secret between me and my aunt. I won't tell you. I haven't settled with you yet. You didn't tell me about such a big thing as my aunt being hospitalized."

Uh, this matter is Xia Nuo's fault, she winked at Xia's mother, and Xia's mother immediately understood.

"Auntie is to blame for this matter. Auntie told her not to talk about it. You are busy with work, so you run around and make a lot of trouble."

Gu Xiaoxing was still pulling his face at Xia Nuo at first, but when he faced Xia's mother, he changed his clothes and looked cute, smiling and said: "How can you blame Auntie, it's all Xia Nuo's fault."

Xia Nuo saw this scene from the side, a black line flashed across his forehead.

Before she could speak, Gu Xiaoxing changed his distressed expression and said: "Look at my aunt's slender hands are all green."

Xia Nuo couldn't help it: "Gu Xiaoxing, how many faces do you have?"

Gu Xiaoxing rolled his eyes: "I want you to take care of it."

Because of Gu Xiaoxing, the originally dull ward had a little more joyful atmosphere.

After chatting for a while, Gu Xiaoxing was about to leave. He gave Xia Nuo a wink, indicating that he had something to look for her, and then told Xia's mother: "Auntie, you must obediently listen to the doctor, and you will be fine soon. I'll see you when I have time."

Xia's mother was still reluctant to part: "Xing Wazi, come and chat with Auntie to relieve boredom when you have time, they don't even know how to chat."

Gu Xiaoxing promised to come, Xia Nuo was depressed again, and suggested: "Mom and Dad, why don't you just take this opportunity to recognize him as your son and give me to Uncle Gu's family as a daughter."

Xia's mother beamed with joy, and said without hesitation: "That's kind."

Gu Xiaoxing obediently agreed: "I am also willing."

"..."

After saying goodbye to Xia's father and Xia's mother, Xia Nuo sent him out. When there were only two of them left, Gu Xiaoxing returned to his usual way of getting along with her, and complained: "You didn't tell me such a big thing?"

Xia Nuo explained: "If I don't tell you, Xia Yan will tell you." In the past few days, she has only thought about one issue, how to save her mother, and she really has no time to take care of the rest.

"I heard that both you and Xia Yan have had a match?"

The two argued in front of the doctor for a kidney transplant that day, but one person's type matching may not be successful, and one more person will have an extra chance to save his mother. In the end, both of them did the type matching, and the hospital took two weeks to get the results.

Xia Nuo secretly scolded Xia Yan in his heart, he said it was a good idea to hide this from everyone, so why did he tell Gu Xiaoxing.

"Don't tell my dad yet." She tacitly agreed.

"If the matching is successful..."

"If the matching is successful, I will immediately sign the consent form for the operation."

During the conversation, the two came to the door of the hospital.

Gu Xiaoxing didn't know what to say to comfort her, hesitated for a long time, and sighed, "I don't have a position to say anything now, but you remember that you don't have to deal with things alone, don't forget that I am a friend."

Xia Nuo gave him a reassuring smile: "I just found out that I really couldn't accept it, but I still thank God for giving me the chance to save her. I'm really fine now." People who lost their lives should really be grateful.

Now she can only think in an optimistic direction.

Gu Xiaoxing's eyes were bright, and he took out a bank card from his bag and handed it to her.

Xia Nuo looked at him with a puzzled expression, but didn't answer.

Gu Xiaoxing urged: "Take it, I don't know how many catties you have in your pocket."

Xia Nuo refused, "I can't take this money."

Gu Xiaoxing pretended to be funny: "Are you thinking too much, this money is not given for nothing, just treat it as a loan from me, and pay it back later."

Xia Nuo still hesitated, refusing to reach out to take it.

He simply took her hand, spread his palm, and stuffed the card over: "If you're really sorry, when I get married, I'll give you double the share, and it will be regarded as interest."

Holding the card, Xia Nuo was touched, and finally accepted it. I will pay back the debt I owe him later. It is important to see a doctor for my mother right now.

She said, "Then get married quickly."

Gu Xiaoxing smiled: "You go in quickly, I'm leaving."

After watching him leave, Xia Nuo turned back to the ward.
