i'm not a bad man

Chapter 358 Before Departure
Because it was already 03:30 in the morning, I simply slept in the hotel in the scenic area and set the alarm clock to eight o'clock. Because I had already made a travel plan with Xiao Chen and planned to leave at nine o'clock. I would be able to arrive in Tianjin in the evening. .

I slept so deeply that the alarm clock rang in my ears several times before I opened my eyes in a daze, and then got up in a daze.

When I arrived at the hotel lobby, I saw Xiao Chen sitting on the sofa with his daughter, surrounded by many bits and pieces of daily necessities. For them, this was just the beginning of their displacement, and this was also the beginning of their journey. The reason why I drove to Tianjin was because I wanted to take not only Xiao Chen and his daughter, but also all their things.

I didn't go to them immediately, but stood and looked at them from a distance. The child looked very depressed and sickly. This appearance was obviously caused by the unbearable treatment. She just kept shrinking in the small room. In Chen's arms, she was completely uncurious about everything around her, as if Xiao Chen was everything to her.

……

Sighing softly, I walked to Xiao Chen's side. Xiao Chen noticed me and was about to get up. I held him down and said, "Let's rest for a while. A friend will go to Tianjin with us later." .”

Xiao Chen nodded, then lowered his head to the child huddled in his arms and said, "Jani, call me uncle."

The child looked at me, her eyes filled with a sense of powerlessness that should never appear in her. This sense of powerlessness made her look a little tired, tired of the world, and tired of her own destiny.

Seeing that she didn't speak, I took the initiative to smile and said to her, "So your name is Jiani?"

She still didn't speak and just shrank into Xiao Chen's arms. Xiao Chen was afraid of neglecting me, so he shook her again and asked her to call me uncle.

"Don't force the child, she will scream after she gets used to it."

I couldn't understand Xiao Chen's mood, so I didn't know why he cried again. He kept his head down, and tears flowed down his face and onto his neck. It was at this time that the child named Jiani finally opened his eyes. After saying that, she wiped away Xiao Chen's tears with her little hands and said in a childish voice: "Dad... don't cry... Jiani will be very good. I'm not afraid of injections or taking medicine..."

"Jani, this is our benefactor...this is our benefactor!"

Jiani looked up at me again, but in her world, she had not yet formed an understanding of the term benefactor, so the way she looked at me was still blank, and I felt even worse... I was afraid of myself Even after trying their best, they still couldn't give them the best result because the disease was too dangerous, and Luan Yu was the one who would lead the way.

I wanted to get rid of this emotion, but looking at them, I became more and more sad. It wasn't until Qiao Jiao suddenly appeared at the door that I suddenly came back to reality.

She didn't come empty-handed. She held several dolls, large and small, in her hands. Then she trotted to us and bent down to look at the child huddled in Xiao Chen's arms.

Qiao Jiao didn't act too solemn like me. She put her hand on the child's leg and said with a smile: "Kid, what's your name?... If you can tell me your name, I will give it to you." I’ll give you a doll, okay?”

For a child, a smiling face is probably the best softener, so after she looked at Xiao Chen and got encouragement from Xiao Chen, she really said back to Qiao Jiao: "Sister, my name is Jiani."

"Your father's surname is Chen, so your full name must be Chen Jiani, right?"

Jiani nodded, and Qiao Jiao smiled again: "Is sister smart?"

"clever."

"You made my sister so happy. Then I'll give you another doll... I'll give it all to you. It's been a long time since I met such a cute little sister!"

After saying that, Qiao Jiao placed all the dolls she brought next to Jiani, and then stretched out her arms to hug her. Qiao Jiao seemed to have endless things to say to her, and asked her to name these dolls. These are her good friends. To give them names is to give them life.Jiani may not be able to understand her words, but she is really close to her...

This kind of affinity is certainly not something Qiao Jiao is born with, but she understands what her children need better than I do, and I do act a little too heavy in front of my children.

……

Just as Qiao Jiao was coaxing the children to have fun, my phone vibrated in my pocket again. The call was from Zhao Yingrou. After answering the call, she didn't talk to me first like before. Nonsense, but he said to me straightforwardly: "Remind you, what the child needs to bring when he is hospitalized...his father's ID card and their family's household register must be brought, as well as the medical insurance card. If you don't have medical insurance, bring a new one." Rural Cooperative Medical System, our hospital's system is relatively strict, and you must bring your child's vaccination booklet... In addition, some daily necessities, try to bring as much as you can. Things in supermarkets near the hospital are generally expensive, so don't increase the number of patients. An unnecessary burden.”

"Okay, I'll confirm with them later."

"Ah."

"Have the beds and other arrangements been arranged over there?"

Zhao Yingrou seemed a little stressed. After she sighed, she replied: "When you arrive at our hospital, you will know how tight the beds are. Many patients are in temporary beds and live in the corridors of the hospital... So, these beds are really I sold all the face I could to find him...I'm not asking for credit in front of you. It's indeed this thing that makes me feel a little uncomfortable...Giving this bed to you means that I promised it to others before. The beds cannot be cashed in. The people who come here are all seriously ill, and no one can afford to wait... We can only see if there are any vacant beds in the back and quickly fill them up."

After pondering for a while, I replied: "Thank you very much."

Just as I was saying thank you, I was already thinking about buying something for her when I arrived in Tianjin. Since she helped so much, if she asked me to send a car to her dad at this time, I would I think I will agree to her, because if I bite the bullet, I can still squeeze out the money to buy a car.

No, Zhao Yingrou replied calmly: "I didn't want you to thank me. If you really feel sorry, then just thank us for our friendship..."

"Then...what's there to thank you for? They're all old calendars...How about I give you a bag, which brand do you like? Or, I give you the latest Apple mobile phone, don't you have it?" It’s a habit that must be changed every time it’s new.”

"Come on, if I really accept these things from you, wouldn't I really become a black-hearted doctor who takes red envelopes from you..."

I smiled, and Zhao Yingrou asked again: "Have you set off yet?"

"It's ready to go."

"Well, please be safe on the road. I will send the location of the hospital to your mobile phone right now."

After saying this, Zhao Yingrou hung up the phone neatly, and I was in a daze. I just felt that her speaking style was completely different from the girl I chatted with before, let alone her when we were in love.

Maybe this time, she was really talking to me as a doctor.

I subconsciously looked outside again. The sky was clear and the snow had almost melted...

But I don’t know if this is a signal of good luck!
Of course Tianjin is a city that I am very familiar with, but when I decided to embrace it again, everything seemed strange and full of unknowns!
