night falls

Chapter 39 Hearing the sound at night 38
In a blink of an eye, it was winter.Christmas Eve, December 24th, was the day when Xiaojia had surgery.

At noon that day, Jiang Gai rushed to the hospital after eating. After visiting Xiaojia in the ward, she went to Wen Shiqing's office to say a few words to him.

But when I opened the door and walked in, no one was there.

Jiang Gai glanced at the black cashmere coat on the hanger and thought that he should have made preparations for the surgery in advance.

Back in the ward, Xia Mian and another nurse also came and said it was time to push Xiaojia to the operating room to wait.

Jiang Gai followed the bed and looked at the oxygen mask that took up two-thirds of his face, feeling sour in his heart.

"Sister Jiang Jie..." Xiaojia called out suddenly. He hadn't eaten all morning, and his voice was a little weak.

Jiang Gai lowered his eyes and smiled: "Huh?"

"Sister Chengcheng said... you will take me to the capital after my operation is completed, is it true?"

He spoke very slowly, and the breath he exhaled when he opened and closed his lips sprayed on the oxygen mask, blurring his little face.

While walking, Jiang Ai reached out and touched his forehead, always keeping a smile on his face: "Of course, when did sister lie to you? Then I will take you to the capital and introduce my brother to you. There is a If my brother plays with him, he will be very happy."

Xiaojia raised her hand, unclenched her clenched fist, and revealed the badge in her hand: "Do you think it will protect me?"

With a sore nose, Jiang Gai looked at the bright red medal and almost couldn't help crying: "It will definitely happen..." She grabbed his hand, held his five fingers, and wrapped them tightly, her voice was a little hoarse. , "Today is Christmas Eve, everything will be safe and sound, just grab it and sleep, and when you wake up, everything will be better."

Zhang Chengcheng listened silently for a long time. She sniffed and raised a smile: "Come on, Xiaojia, sister Jiang Jie and I are waiting for you at the door."

When they arrived at the door of the operating room, the family members were required to stop. Xia Mian turned to look at the two of them and comforted them: "We are going in, don't worry too much."

Jiang Gai nodded, released his grip on the bed handle, and smiled brightly: "Xiaojia, we are waiting for you here, keep working hard!"

The door of the operating room opened and then closed slowly.Ten minutes later, the red "In Surgery" light on the door came on.

Maybe it's because of heartache, maybe because of sympathy, or maybe because of the carefree living environment I have had since childhood.

The appearance of Xiaojia made Jiang Gai have many feelings about the world that she had never had before, and even made her deeply realize the true meaning contained in the four words "people are very small"...

There is probably nothing more important in this world than living a healthy life.

……

At around six o'clock in the evening, the red light outside the operating room finally went out.Not long after, the door to the operating room slowly opened, and Wen Shiqing walked out in a green surgical gown. He took off his mask, revealing his fair face, with soft eyes: "The operation was successful. After the vital signs stabilize, , you can transfer from the intensive care unit to the general ward."

Hearing this, the hanging hearts of Zhang Chengcheng and Jiang Jie finally settled.The latter smiled relievedly at Wen Shiqing: "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Wen."

Wen Shiqing: "It should be."

……

Three days later, Xiaojia's vital signs returned to stable and he was successfully transferred from the intensive care unit to the general ward.

Seeing Xiaojia's gradually improving spirit, Jiang Gai was also happy for him. He went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables early in the morning and cooked several delicious dishes to send to him and Wen Shiqing.

After placing the lunch box in the ward, Jiang Gai smiled: "Sister Chengcheng, you feed Xiaojia, and I'll go to Dr. Wen to deliver a meal!" As she said that, she raised the cloth bag in her hand and patted it.

Zhang Chengcheng smiled evilly: "Oh~ I understand, go, go!"

Then, she happily picked up her rice bag and turned around and went out.

As soon as the ward door was closed, the cell phone in his pocket rang.When Jiang Gai saw that it was Jiao Yan, she stretched out her finger to answer the call and walked towards Wen Shiqing's office: "Hey, old Yanba, what's going on?"

Jiao Yan said lazily while pressing the iPad: "Jiao Zi, when are you going to take a vacation?"

Jiang Gai thought for a moment: "It seems to be January [-]th."

"Then when will you come back?"

Jiang Gai was slightly stunned by this question, and said, "I might be late, and I'll go back like this at No. 20."

"So late?" Jiao Yan exclaimed, "You have Dr. Wen and you don't even want to go back home???"

"No..." Jiang Gai glanced at the door of Wen Shiqing's office, and finally walked to the window at the end, and continued, "It will take almost two weeks for Xiaojia to be discharged from the hospital. I want to wait until he is discharged from the hospital before leaving, because there are still things to do. Think about it."

"Don't come." Jiao Yan sneered, "I don't believe that Dr. Wen is not the reason why you came back so late."

After his thoughts were seen through, Jiang Gai didn't hide it and smiled calmly: "That's true."

"I'm bored on New Year's Day. Let me check out the air tickets. How about I go to Yanchuan to hang out with you for a few days?" Jiao Yan suddenly suggested.

Jiang Ai's face lit up with joy: "Of course that's good, my sister! I'm looking forward to your coming!"

"Okay, I'll go check out the air tickets later." As she said that, Jiao Yan paused while tapping the iPad, and suddenly said, "Hey, if it were you, Li Zeyan or Xu Mo, which one would you choose?"

"Li Zeyan..." Hearing her sudden question, Jiang Gai frowned for a second, then reacted and was surprised, "It's been a fucking year, and you're still playing this game?"

"If you don't live without a man, you can just use your mobile phone to satisfy your cravings." Jiao Yan said righteously, "Oh, just tell me which one you choose!"

Jiang Gai didn't hesitate: "Of course I choose Li Zeyan!"

……

Li Zeyan?

These were the first words Wen Shiqing heard when he opened the door to his office.

The voice is crisp and delicate, coupled with the unique accent when speaking, Wen Shiqing is very familiar with it.

Turning around, it turned out to be true.

Jiang Gai stood in front of the window, with her back to him, holding a rice bag on the window edge in one hand, holding a mobile phone to her ear in the other, and continued to say: "This kind of tall, handsome, mature, cold-tongued person The arrogant and domineering president is so sweet to my heart!"

Hearing this, Wen Shiqing's heart skipped a beat at the door.

Tall, handsome and mature?Is it simply her favorite? ?
……

"Tch!" Jiao Yan rolled her eyes and didn't take it seriously, "I don't know who it is. It opens and shuts up all day long to warm up to the doctor, but it still feels good."

Jiang Jie: "Luanluanluo!"

"Stop talking, I'm raising a man." Jiao Yan said in a high tone, "You can raise your Doctor Wen!"

Jiang Jie: "Bye! Bye!"

After hanging up the phone, she put the phone away and turned around with a smile on her face.

When he raised his head and bumped into Wen Shiqing's dark and deep eyes, he was caught off guard and took a deep breath.

"Wen...Doctor Wen."

Wen Shiqing glanced at her, and the indifference and gloominess in his eyes made her spine shiver.

She pursed her lips, her face a little stiff: "Then...that..." Could it be that she spoke too loudly and disturbed him?
Before Jiang Gai could finish speaking, Wen Shiqing turned around and entered the office, leaving behind a figure that was ruthless and cold.

Jiang Gai thought about it for a moment, then hurriedly followed him and said dog-leggedly: "Have you eaten, Doctor Wen?"

Wen Shiqing was busy cleaning his desk and did not respond. On his face that seemed to be covered with ice, there was "Don't mess with me" written in capital letters.

Jiang Ai thought that he might not be in a good mood today, so she tremblingly went over to put down the lunch box and ran away. But just as she was about to put down the hand holding the lunch box, the man grabbed the large stack of medical records and slapped the book in her hand. He threw it down, then strode forward to pull the door open without looking back.

There was a loud bang as the door closed, as if venting the great anger in his heart. Jiang Gai was so frightened that he was shocked and confused.

She, she, she... what did she do wrong again? Woohoo...

-

After returning home that night, Jiang Jie took a shower and went to the balcony to call her mother.

Ms. Jiang's mother, Ms. Fang Xin, had just finished making a facial mask and received a call from her daughter. She spoke softly first: "Hey Mustard Seed? What's the matter?"

"Mom, are you sleeping?" Jiang Gai smiled, "I didn't disturb you, did I?"

"No, I just finished applying the facial mask."

"Where's Dad?"

"I went to a social event and haven't come back yet." Fang Xin asked, "Are you going to be on vacation soon?"

"Next week..." Jiang Gai paused for a moment, "Uh, but mom... I might go back a little later."

"Huh? Why?" Fang Xin is a native of R city. She has been married to the capital for so many years, but her accent has not changed much. It is gentle and soft, revealing the unique accent of a southern woman, which is completely opposite to Jiang Gai's.

Jiang Jie: "I participated in a social work activity...it won't end until the [-]th."

"Oh, that's it. Then let me talk to your dad..." Fang Xin smiled and asked, "Then school is on vacation, where will you live?"

Seeing that his mother agreed, Jiang Jie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine if I live with my uncle! He's an old bachelor anyway."

"Okay, then I'll call your uncle then, and you just need to pay attention to your own safety."

Hearing this, Jiang Gai suddenly felt warm in his heart: "Mom, you are so kind... Dad is also kind."

Fang Xin smiled softly: "My biological child, how about it?"

"Hehe, Mom..." Jiang Ge picked at the paint chips on the balcony and said, "I have something to discuss with you and dad."

Fang Xin: "What?"

There was silence on the phone for a while. Jiang Gai pursed her lips to organize her words and said in a deep voice: "Mom... I want to adopt a child..."

Fang Xin on the other end was really stunned: "Adopt a child?"

"Um……"

Later, Jiang Gai told Fang Xin everything about Xiaojia's experience and condition, including the reasons why he made this decision——

She wants to give Xiaojia a home, so that Xiaojia can truly feel... the warmth of a family.

Fang Xin thought silently for a long time and gave an answer.

"I don't have a problem." Mother said, "As for your dad, I'll mention it to him first, but with his enthusiastic temperament, he shouldn't object."

The speed with which her mother agreed was beyond Jiang Gai's expectation. She was a little unbelievable for a moment: "Really, Mom! You agreed?"

"Well..." Fang Xin suddenly became annoyed: "But your brother's side..."

"My brother is fine!" Jiang Gai responded hurriedly, "My brother listens to me the most, and he must be very happy to have so many brothers accompanying him! When the time comes, let me go back and tell him!"

"Okay." Fang Xin chuckled twice, "It's getting late, you should go to bed quickly."

"Okay Mom, go to bed early too. Good night."

-

The next Saturday, Jiang Gai woke up very early.The reason was simple. She thought over and over all night - why was Dr. Wen so angry yesterday?And did she do anything stupid yesterday?
The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't figure it out. In the end, she couldn't sleep at all. She almost opened her eyes to the sky.

Early in the morning, Jiang Gai knew that Wen Shiqing was taking a day off. After holding it in all night, she couldn't hold it in any longer. She picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and sent Wen Shiqing a message.

You have to die, right?
……

Wen Shiqing was working the night shift last night and was worried that the patient might have an emergency at night, so he barely slept a wink.

Around eight o'clock, he changed his coat and was about to go home from get off work. The phone on the table just rang, and a WeChat message popped up——

[Xiaoyu Xiancao: Dr. Wen, were you in a bad mood yesterday? ]
Seeing this news, Wen Shiqing subconsciously recalled what she heard her say at the office door yesterday.

"Of course I choose Li Zeyan... This kind of tall, handsome, mature, cold-tongued and arrogant domineering president is my favorite!"

……

Wen Shiqing frowned, feeling a little irritated for no reason.

Before she could reply, another message came from her: [Dr. Wen, have I made you angry? _]
Wen Shiqing stared at the message note for a long time and typed: [No. ]
However, the little temper contained in these two words is probably only known to him.

[Xiaoyu Xiancao: Then why were you angry yesterday...]
Wen Shiqing buttoned up his coat, took his briefcase and walked out while typing: [I'm hungry. ]
Jiang Jie in front of the mobile phone screen: "………………"

-

December 12st, the last day of 31.

The next day was the New Year's Day holiday. After the last class in the afternoon, the students in the class began to discuss enthusiastically where to celebrate the New Year in the evening.

[Level 17 Weng Yuhan: Are you guys dancing to the disco? ]

[Level 17 Zheng Yu: OK!There is a new Galaxy Club on Donghu Road, which is said to be great! ]

[Level 17 Shen Beihan: You can consider it. ]
[Level 17 Ji Sisi: Go, go, go! ]

[Level 17 Lin Yang: Add me! ]

[Level 17 Chen Bing: I’ll go too! ]

[Level 17 Zheng Yu: If anyone else wants to go, please let me know. We all have a class reunion together. ]
……

As soon as the news came out, other students in the class participated enthusiastically. Shen Beihan glanced at Jiang Jie who was watching a drama next to him, and called out: "Jiezi! Shall we celebrate the New Year together tonight?"

Hearing the sound, Jiang Gai pressed pause, turned around and looked at her in surprise: "Aren't you going to be with your little brother on such an important day?"

Shen Beihan: "He also has a party with classmates from the department in the evening, so I won't mix in. Besides, New Year's Eve is fun when there are many people."

Jiang Gai asked her: "Where to cross?"

Shen Beihan shook his cell phone: "Look in the group. Everyone says they want to go to the disco. Are you going?"

"Disco..." Jiang Jie drawled a long voice lazily, "I don't really want to go."

……

Three hours later, Galaxy Club.

Loud and rhythmic hot music filled the whole dance hall, and black DJs with dreadlocks shouted mics on the high stage, pushing the atmosphere of the audience to the highest point wave after wave.The young men and women on the dance floor twisted their bodies and swayed to the strong drumbeat from the speaker.

"Jiang Ai! Come on up and jump!" Shen Beihan shouted loudly into Jiang Ai's ear and raised his finger to point to the stage in front of the DJ booth.

Jiang Jie put down the wine glass she had drank in her hand, and nodded repeatedly, her excited and enthusiastic appearance was completely different from her who couldn't tell three hours ago.

Pah pah pah...well, it smells so good.
