Chapter 19
She had a happy family, a mother who loved her, and a father who loved her.It's a pity that all of these were wiped out overnight.

She had just turned ten years old at that time, was in elementary school, and lived in school.

That night, as soon as the lights were turned off in the dormitory and the students were about to go to bed, the class teacher knocked on the door of her dormitory, hurriedly asked her to get dressed, and hurriedly dragged her away.

The moment she arrived at the hospital, she came to her senses and looked at the class teacher.His eyes seemed to be full of pleading, he didn't want to hear what he guessed in his heart, the result that something happened to his parents...

"Your parents... had a car accident..." the head teacher said softly, with pity for her.But when it reached her ears, it was like a thunderbolt that wanted to blow her to pieces.

After hurriedly asking where the operating room was, she ran away, fearing that she might not see her parents later.

Finally, outside the operating room.Looking at the red, dazzling "in operation", she finally couldn't bear it, and fell helplessly on the ground, wiping tears secretly.

A hand holding a tissue reached out to her without warning. "It's okay, uncle and aunt will be safe."

If his appearance was like a ray of sunshine, warming her words, then his words were undoubtedly like a gust of breeze, soothing her helpless heart.

She stared blankly at the tissue, then threw herself into his arms, sobbing.

He, who has always been obsessed with cleanliness, didn't dislike the way she was teary and wiped all over his body. He allowed her to "play tricks" in his arms, and patted her on the back lightly to comfort her.

After she calmed down a bit, she finally woke up.Looking up, I saw his parents, who hurriedly called "Uncle and aunt..." and saw his shirt wet with his own tears, feeling a little embarrassed.

In fact, he is the son of her mother's best friend. The two have known each other since childhood, but they are not very close.This time, because of her parents' accident, she started to have strange feelings towards him.

After a night, the lights in the operating room finally went out.But what she received was the news that her parents died after rescue failed.

He rushed to the operating room like crazy, only to see the cold corpses of his parents.All the mental hints I did before, all disappeared.She threw herself on her parents, crying unknowingly.

Later, he still took her away.Otherwise, with her emotions at that time, something would definitely happen.

Her parents' funeral was handled by his mother alone.As for her, she became an orphan and was taken into his home by his parents.

In the days when she first arrived at his house, she still couldn't accept the fact that her parents had passed away, and she seemed to be unable to recover from it. She lost most of her weight and even asked for a month's leave.

During that month, he talked with her all day long, took her out for a walk, told her interesting things around him; cared about her, took care of all her emotions; even learned about all her preferences...

Similarly, his parents also love her very much. The family gave her a different kind of love.Finally, she cheered up again.

From now on, he has been guarding her side, giving her to rely on, making her depend on.But this also made her have a strange feeling for him, which became the beginning of all this.

But crushes rarely end well.Most of them are just sad, licking the wound alone.

In her second year of junior high school, she was busy with the high school entrance examination.After finally having a vacation, he took her to the playground to relax.

She wants to play a carousel that looks very childish, and he will take pictures of her; she wants to play an exciting pirate ship, and he will hold her hand when the ship starts; When she's scared, put her at ease...

A visit to the amusement park undoubtedly increased the relationship between them.To him it might just be brother and sister, but to her it might not be.

On the way back, he crossed the road first, followed by her.

But when she was in the middle of the road, a van ran a red light and ran straight into her.With a face full of shock, she fell down...

But when he just turned his head, he saw this scene and rushed over quickly.Before she fainted, when she saw his anxious figure, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

When I woke up again, it was already a day later.When she opened her eyes, she saw him who might have been too tired and fell asleep by her bedside.

I wanted him to sleep more, but I didn't think that he would wake up with a little movement.I had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and smile at him.

And seeing her smiling, he was excited, distressed, and blamed himself.By himself, he took care of her for more than a week.

The relationship between the two seems to be getting closer.

His family owns a company, and his parents often travel on business.Except that at the beginning, in order to accompany her who had just arrived, she didn't go on a business trip, and it seemed that she was rarely at home.

He misses meals that have a "taste of home".I always feel that it was the most delicious thing in the world at that time.

For this reason, she went to find his mother and learned how to cook.

Cutting vegetables time and time again; being splashed with oil again and again; frying vegetables time and time again...but none of them could stop her heart.

After more than two years and many failures, she finally cooked good dishes, all of which have a "taste of home".When people taste it, they can't help but praise her.

But she doesn't care about other people's comments.Seeing him eating with gusto in front of her undoubtedly filled her with joy, and it was also her greatest motivation.

In her third year of high school, he took over the family's company.Both of them are very busy all day.One is busy with study and the other is busy with work.For several months, I haven't sat down to have a good talk.

But overtiredness will always cause trouble... She originally had a slight cold, but she was too busy studying to take care of it.As a result, my body got worse and worse, and my little cold turned into a high fever of [-] degrees.

After lying on the bed for more than half a day, he came in a hurry.

Because when he received her news, he was away on a business trip for a meeting.In order to come back, he squeezed nine hours into three hours.After the meeting was over, I immediately caught a plane.

Seeing her on the hospital bed, he seemed to be saying that she didn't pay attention to her body, didn't think about herself... But his eyes were full of pity.

For some reason, her tears fell.Maybe it's because of him, since his parents passed away, he has been protecting and loving himself.

She studied financial management in college, and she wanted to help him so that he didn't have to work so hard.

It turned out that the relationship between him and her was going on according to the previous track.But in her junior year, everything changed.He began to pay attention to the distance between them. Although he still cared about her, there was already an invisible gap between them.

She pretended not to know, but her heart was already turbulent.Maybe he has someone he likes.

When she was in her senior year, he happily found her and said that he was going to get married, and reminded her to go home for the wedding...

She nodded and said yes with a smile on her face, and specially blessed them, because there was still something to do at school, so she came with a smile... But this was just a disguise.

As early as the moment she turned around, she burst into tears.Did not make any sound, crying a little ugly.It's just that he, who was immersed in happiness, didn't notice it.

She went back to the dormitory and cried all night...

On the day of the wedding, seeing the slightly swollen belly of the woman beside him, she knew that there was no way for her.Drinking a glass of wine with a wry smile, she stepped forward and blessed them with a smile.

After graduation, she chose to go to another company and became a small manager.She said she wanted to come out to practice, but it was an excuse she made to escape him.

There was an unforeseen event, and she received the news not long after she came out to work that he had a car accident, and the rescue failed and passed away.And his wife had just given birth at that time, and after hearing the news, she bled profusely and disappeared...

When she arrived at the hospital, she tremblingly lifted the white cloth on his head, and cried again for no reason, just like her parents had passed away.It's just that this time, there will never be a "he" to accompany me again.

She took over his company and adopted his son.He just manages the company in an orderly manner and leads the company forward step by step; he takes care of his son carefully and gives all his love...

I don't know if it's because she can't forget him all the time, or because she wants to raise his son better, she never married.Later, his son asked her childishly, "Why doesn't aunt find someone to accompany her?" She also patted the little baby's head and smiled.

This period of secret love, she had already forgotten when it completely started, but now it will still continue.Even if the two can't be together, even if he is no longer here...
