Two days later, in the intensive care unit, Ji Chengzhi, who had been waiting for two whole days, finally waited for the man inside to wake up.
Waking up, that’s good!
Ji Chengzhi saw and finally moved his legs, which had been standing outside for so long they were becoming numb. He snuffed out the cigarette he was holding, put on a sterile gown, and stepped inside.
"You’re awake?"
The sunlight at the end of March and the beginning of April is actually the most beautiful, not too cold or hot, carrying the aura of spring’s awakening. At this mont, as it shone through the glass window, the entire ICU was warm, filled with a sense of life.
Ji Chengzhi ca in and saw the sunlight falling on this person’s face, casting a pale halo on his almost translucent skin. Watching it, he couldn’t help but feel a bit dazed.
It seed like a very long ti since he had seen him so calm.
"Where is she?"
"She’s gone!"
"Where is she?"
"Waiting for you!"
"Hmm..."
The reaction was surprisingly calm, not the excitent he expected upon waking up, nor the hysterical symptoms he feared seeing after hearing bad news.
His emotions were unusually calm.
Very simple conversations, as if he hadn’t just experienced a life-and-death situation, and as if they hadn’t witnessed that thrilling rescue. Their calmness was like an everyday chat.
Is she still here?
Sorry, she’s gone.
Is her child there waiting for him?
That’s definite, he’ll always be given a chance to see him one last ti.
...
As brothers, getting to this point, really nothing more is needed to be said.
Ji Chengzhi suddenly felt a bit blocked in his heart, seeing his pupils constrict slightly, he walked over to pull the blinds down. That way, the light could still co in, but it was not as glaring.
With the blinds down, sure enough, the strong light just now beca much softer. So he walked over, stood in front of him: "Your condition has worsened again this ti, the spasms are keeping the heart arteries from fully closing."
"Will I die?"
"..."
Ji Chengzhi froze for a mont...
Why would he ask this question? Before, he would never ask this, especially not in this tone.
Ji Chengzhi stood there and digested this sentence for a long, long ti before finally tightening his face, replying: "You won’t die as long as I’m here!"
This was a stubborn answer!
As long as he was here, he wouldn’t die, so was he going to try to die?
The patient lying on the bed, hearing this sentence, finally tugged at his bloodless lips, revealing a very faint, bleak smile...
For a long ti after, the two were silent.
This was a silence where even a pin dropping could be heard. In the ICU, apart from the "beep beep" sounds from the machines, there was nothing else, and the whole room was filled with oppression and dead silence.
Ji Chengzhi couldn’t stand being there anymore, he wanted to leave, but feared that once he left, this person who had just woken up might do sothing foolish inside, so he had to hold on, waiting.
Waiting for him to speak!
After all, his current state was very abnormal.
He stared for who knows how long until finally, the person lying on the hospital bed spoke again: "Can you bring the chief of the city public security bureau to ?"
