The Hope You Gave Me: 13-Confession

Half an hour later, Xin Qi and Min Hui finally "escorted" Tong Minghao back to the hospital. After an examination, the doctor said that it may be because they met a stranger, and the patient suddenly became nervous. He asked them to stay in the hostel for a few more days to get to know Tong Minghao as much as possible.

"When will I be discharged from the hospital?" Min Hui asked.

"It depends on the progress of the disease." The doctor thought she was concerned about the cost. "Since you have already paid the arrears, the hospital doesn't mind letting him stay for a while longer."

A period of time... how long?

Min Hui was a little worried.

This is not home after all. After paying 27,000 yuan for hospitalization fees, Min Hui has already paid all her savings. If she continues to live, she may have to borrow money from Xin Qi.

Xin Qi went to the bathroom first when he went out. The doctor looked at Min Hui and suddenly coughed and said, "Does he have a heart attack?"

Min Hui was startled for a moment, then nodded.

"When I entered the door just now, my lips were purple."

"...innate."

"Then be careful not to do any strenuous exercise."

"What kind of exercise counts as strenuous exercise?"

"Sprint, swim, box—"

“…”

The doctor didn't say more, and Min Hui's heart began to worry again, feeling that Xin Qi's heart was a ticking time bomb. He is now a bomb disposal expert and will explode in front of him if he makes a mistake.

When I went out to see Xin Qi, her lips turned purple. I don't know if it was because of her inexperience or an illusion in her heart. Min Hui felt that the purple was so bright that it looked like she had put on lipstick. Became the vampire in Twilight.

"Are you all right?"

"What can I do?"

"The doctor advised you not to exercise vigorously."

He didn't answer at all, and wrapped her shoulders around her, "Go, go to my room and eat cantaloupe."

"Brother, at least you have to take a bath before eating, right?" Min Hui pointed to the black mud print on her shirt, and the two smiled at each other. The weather was too hot, and the wet clothes were dried by the heat on the way back, leaving only a stench of aquatic plants and dead fish.

"I'm starting to get itchy when you say that." He blinked, "See you later." Then he kissed her on the cheek. A nurse just happened to pass by, and seeing the two of them making out, she covered her mouth and smiled. Min Hui glared at him, and he took her finger into his mouth and bit: "I really want to eat them..."

"Can you be careful in public?"

"Does that mean that you can be inattentive in private situations? Huh? Tian Tian, ​​a sweet and sweet Baby?"

Back to the room and into the bathroom to turn on the hot water, Min Hui's anxiety started to flare up again.

She nervously applied shower gel over and over again, washed her face and hair repeatedly, and murmured Su Tian's name.

If Su Tian has a spirit in the sky, I hope she can have a dream and tell herself what to do now. Tong Minghao can't be discharged from the hospital for a while, Xin Qi is definitely not willing to leave, and the operation time will be delayed. This area is far away from big cities, and in the event of a heart attack, it may be too late to even rescue it. Now he regards himself as Su Tian, ​​and he is intimate and passionate. If you know the truth, you will definitely turn your face. Returning to New York in a rage, it may be possible to operate on time.

Confession, or secrecy?

Min Hui was struggling with a stomach ache, pounding the wall irritably, while turning the shower to maximum, letting the hot water pour over her like a torrential rain.

A lie should never begin, not even with good intentions.

The snowball of logic will keep getting bigger and bigger, until it grows out of control. Min Hui looked at her lobster-pink body scalded by hot water, thinking how happy Xin Qi is now, how annoyed she will be then; how sweet she is now, how much hatred she will be then.

She was suddenly frightened. Fear of the consequences of fear and the torture of guilt.

If he confessed to Xin Qi on the first day of meeting that he was only a person reporting bad news, Xin Qi would be sad and sad, but he would never hate himself.

But now—

Thinking of this, Min Hui felt she couldn't wait any longer, she had to confess immediately.

Just do it!

She turned off the hot water, flushed out of the bathroom, dried her body, put on a T-shirt and shorts indiscriminately, and walked quickly to the next room, her hair soaking wet and not bothering to dry it.

This time, the door took a long time to open.

As soon as Min Hui saw Xin Qi, she covered her face and said, "There's something I've always wanted to tell you—" Just as she was about to continue speaking, she found Xin Qi squinting, her hair wet, and wearing a black silk Pajamas, as if not awake.

"Are you asleep?"

"No, come in and talk." He led her to the sofa, sat down with her, pointed to a plate of cantaloupe cut on the coffee table, "Can you eat some cantaloupe?"

"What's the matter with you?" she asked with concern, "what's wrong?"

"It's fine, I just need to rest." He looked tired, and after saying this, he leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes, "You said, I'm listening."

To maintain her composure, she picked up a piece of cantaloupe, took a bite, and put it back. I didn't dare to look at his face, I only dared to look down at my feet: "I, I'm not Su Tian."

“…”

"Su Tian fell into the river to save me and disappeared..."

“…”

"I wanted to tell you the day we met. I heard that you had a heart attack. I was afraid that something would happen, so I decided to hide it for a while. Then... I never found a chance..."

“…”

"I didn't mean it. I owe Su Tian a life. If you are angry, you can beat or scold you."

“…”

Min Hui confessed while sobbing, and explained everything from the beginning to the end. Seeing that Xin Qi was silent for a long time, she thought he was too angry to say anything. After saying the last word, she finally Gather up the courage to look up at him: "Xin Qi, can you forgive me?"

He closed his eyes and didn't answer.

"Xin Qi?" She pushed him gently, "Xin Qi?"

He shuddered suddenly, sat up and asked, "Huh?"

"You heard what I said just now?"

He looked at her inexplicably, his dark eyes flashed, and shook his head: "I'm sorry, just now... I fell asleep."

“…”

"Can you say it again?"

"Xin Qi - why did you fall asleep when you were fine?"

"I've taken the medicine, and I usually don't have any major side effects, but just now I don't know why, I'm very sleepy."

"What about now?"

"Still sleepy."

"How uncomfortable it is to be crooked here, let's go, I'll take you to bed." She led him to the bed and lay down, pulling on the blanket.

He held her hand tightly and refused to let go. She had to sleep beside him and rubbed his back: "Is it uncomfortable here? Can I press it for you?"

"Hold me."

She stretched out her left hand and hugged him tightly from behind. He turned over, buried his head in her arms, muttered a few words, not knowing what he was saying...

Alas, busy again! Min Hui let out a long sigh, brushed the roots of his hair with her fingers, and began to hum: "I'm not Su Tian, ​​do you hear? Xin Qi, I'm not Su Tian, ​​I'm not Su Tian, ​​I really am Not Su Tian."

"I know you're not Su Tian..." he murmured, "You want me to call you Min Hui. Right?.

"No—"

"I still like to call you Su Tian..."

Alas, what's this all about! She pushed him hard, trying to wake him up and talk about it again, but he was fast asleep, breathing short and fast, like a baby. She sleeps peacefully and comfortably, just like sleeping in her own home.

Slowly, Min Hui's heart also calmed down.

All in all, in short, she did confess, didn't she? Although Xin Qi didn't hear a word, his courage is commendable!

She felt a lot better.

The air conditioner was cold and she quickly fell asleep.

When Min Hui woke up, the electronic clock on the bedside showed that it was eight o'clock in the evening.

The sound of the air conditioner was a bit loud, and the curtains were closed tightly. Xin Qi was already awake, lying beside her, watching her silently.

She was a little embarrassed to look at him and wanted to turn her face away, but he pulled her back again.

"The other day you said - I hope I don't ask you about your past, because a lot of things happened that made you sad. I've been thinking about how old we were when we were together Isn't it sad enough for us, isn't fate's torture enough for us? You often ask me, why does God do this to us? When will this day -- this day without family and home -- come to an end ?"

“…”

"I want to tell you, Tian Tian, ​​if you don't want to talk about the past and feel sad, you don't need to tell me. No matter what happened in the past, no matter how bad it was, I can understand and forgive it. It won't change my love for you. I came to see you just to tell you that these unfortunate days are over. Whether I'm here or not, I'll arrange the rest of your life so that you can live well Be normal, live happily, live happily. I can't save the whole world, but I can at least save one of you."

“Xin Qi—”

"So, please feel free to love me, trust me, depend on me, and give me the rest of your life. Because now, I am your husband and your only relative in this world. Understand?"

Min Hui's throat was a little dry, a tear fell from the corner of her eye, she said hoarsely: "Understood. But——"

"Think of it this way: Death is no big deal. As long as we're alive and well, it's all small."

He looked at her deeply, his dark eyes like a time tunnel. She didn't dare to look into his eyes, for fear that her soul would accidentally fall into it, follow it, and travel to an inexplicable place.

She wanted to cry but had no tears and was speechless, and said to herself over and over again in her heart that there is no big deal except death, no big deal except death, no big deal except death - but, classmate Xin Qi, your Su Tian... …already dead!

She looked at him in despair, not expecting his lips to press down gently, and at the same time turned over, put her arms around her neck, and began to kiss her softly, from top to bottom , has been kissed to the lower abdomen.

His legs are against hers, his hands are holding hers, and his body is like a large open net covering her body, making her unable to move.

The net tightened slowly, and she was taken out of the water like a small fish, flapping in his arms.

He does all sorts of daring things and asks her "Do you like it?". At first, she just catered to him and just wanted to make him happy. Gradually, she was incited to forget everything. The two of them rolled in the bed, trying various movements, twisting their bodies like an acrobat...

In this regard, they are a match made in heaven. She thoroughly enjoyed the fun of biological instincts, a challenging shooting hunt, and the opponent's teasing, she was almost screamed by him, and she had to bite the sheet tightly. The two played for a long time, rolling from the bed to the carpet and then from the carpet to the sofa... She regretted not bringing the travel sheets. In Xin Qi's opinion, this kind of thing is not afraid of getting dirty. When the stomachs of the two were rumbling, it was only then that they remembered that they had not eaten lunch and missed dinner.

They took a shower again, this time in the same bathroom. Xin Qi gently scrubbed her, looking at the marks he tossed on her body, a little embarrassed: "Does it hurt?"

She bit her lip and shook her head.

Just this one action, he was teased again, kissed her in the water, hugged her, hugged her, he just didn't know how to love her.

At that moment, his kiss rained down on her whole body, Min Hui thought selfishly, how wonderful life would be if she were Su Tian.

She's willing to play like this for the rest of her life, no matter how it ends.

Just wish that day would come later.

***

I ate dinner at a healthy restaurant ten kilometers away from the guest house. Xin Qi thought that the food in the guest house was too bad and had to move to another place.

Until now, Min Hui discovered that Xin Qi was very picky about food and had very high requirements for ingredients.

He has a very good research on nutrition, and he is especially good at ordering food.

Min Hui's family background is average, since she was a child, she used to eat simple things, and there were not many opportunities to go out to restaurants. If you can eat, you will definitely choose special dishes, such as Sichuan cuisine, Hunan cuisine, and Yunnan cuisine. This kind of cuisine, usually only one or two items can be eaten very full and very happy. Due to the rare opportunity, she could not help eating more, and she would feel bloated and even heartburn after eating.

Xin Qi's dishes are all bland and basically authentic, but each one is special. For example, mushroom soup contains only mushrooms and mushrooms. A plate of asparagus has only been blanched in boiling water. Knowing that she has a strong taste, he will order a plate of stewed eggplant with sansho peppers in a pile of mussels.

It was also a pleasure to chat. Xin Qi knows how to find topics, knows how to watch words, and easily bypasses things she doesn't want to talk about.

Everyone doesn't talk about the past, and they don't spy on each other, and they all feel that the current state is good.

Min Hui joked that they are like a pair of netizens who came out to have sex, and SEX is satisfied. Xin Qi immediately pointed to her ring and said that as long as she nodded, he was ready to get married anytime, anywhere.

Besides playing chess, they also found more in common: they both like European history, the Wars of the Roses, jazz and American TV shows, and they can chat for hours on end.

Because they were too hungry, the two happily ate all the dishes. Xin Qi stuffed the last bean sprout into the mouth and said, "Tian Tian, ​​do you know what surprised me the most?"

"Where?"

"You're smarter than me."

"Nothing."

"Really, maybe you didn't see it yourself, but I did. You're smarter than me. It makes me so happy."

"Why happy not jealous?" she laughed.

"I used to have a bad temper, and part of it was because... you're slow, um, and some people around me are so slow to react that I sometimes feel impatient."

"What about now?"

"First, I don't have to worry, my temper won't be so violent. Second, I'm full of curiosity about you, because I don't think I can figure it out."

"I am with you too."

"What do you want to know? About me, just ask."

Min Hui immediately shook her head: "I don't want to know anything."

He looked at her and smiled faintly: "You are becoming more and more interesting."

The phone rang suddenly, and a WeChat message came, Min Hui opened it and saw that it was sent by a volunteer from Xunqin.com: "Su Tian, ​​the DNA comparison result is out, I'm sorry, Tong Minghao is not your brother. . But after a blind comparison, a couple from Harbin was selected, and they are now on their way to Mingshui County."

She sighed and moved the phone to Xin Qi to show him the content on it.

"He's not your brother?"

“What to do?”

"Continue looking."

"The clue has been broken. If you continue to look for it, I don't know how long it will take." Min Hui suddenly hugged his arm and said seriously, "Xin Qi, you should go back to New York first. Surgery first, I will continue to inquire here, and after your surgery is over, come back to China to find out with me, okay?"

"No, it's not safe for you to find it alone. I have to accompany you. And the clues are not broken. You forgot what that Tong Tianhai said: he said that there were two children at the time, both of them one. More than years old. One is black and thin, the other is white and fat, maybe the black and thin one is your brother?"

"Hey, why didn't I think of that?"
