obsessed with love

Chapter 212 Willing to go alone

Ren Peiyin saw that she shrank her hands and didn't accept it, so she slapped the envelope into Du Ruo's hand.

"Here, take a look for yourself. The amount is quite large, enough to last the days you spent with An Ming. Although this method is a bit straightforward, you should also be clear about it. If An Ming really leaves in a moment of confusion, Marriage, you will not get the same at that time, why not get a fortune now! In addition, you can still give birth to the child, and the Qiao family will take care of it until the end. When the time comes, we will take the child over, and you will get a sum of money. The place starts again, I think, this is the best placement for you..."

Du Ruo took a deep breath, turned to look at Ren Peiyin, and suddenly thought in her heart that this is Qiao Anming's mother, who was as decisive as Qiao Anming, and did not show affection. It turns out that genetic genes are such a precise thing.

It's just that she could have photographed the envelope back in Ren Peiyin's hands, but when she thought of the photo sent by Gu Lan and the scene of her mother lying in a pool of blood at the end, Du Ruo asked, "You came to me, did Qiao An know?" ?”

Ren Peiyin was taken aback, and quickly replied: "I don't know, I came here without telling him, he has already signed the divorce agreement, and he wants to fight for a divorce with all his heart, if you still care about him a little bit, just listen My advice, stop pestering, it's good for everyone..."

Du Ruo smiled, thinking of her mother's reprimand before the car accident, her heart ached so much, she returned the envelope to Ren Peiyin.

"My mother doesn't allow me to be with Qiao Anming, even I know that the whole world doesn't allow me to be with Qiao Anming, but I insist on going my own way, and in the end I hurt others and myself. Now I have received retribution, so I will leave him, but You take the money back, I don't want a cent!"

After Du Ruo finished speaking, she stood up with her hands on her knees. Because she was too tired and her belly was big, she couldn't stand firmly for a while, and then fell backwards. Ren Peiyin supported her, and still put the happiness in Du Ruo's hands inside.

"Hold it, I know that your family's conditions are not good, your brother is hospitalized, and your parents don't have any decent jobs, so take it as a gift from me to my grandson... The deadline for drawing this check is ten days. If you don’t go to the bank to handle it, then the check will expire automatically, you should think it through yourself..."

Du Ruo's mood was so low that she couldn't deal with Ren Peiyin at all, so she didn't bother to say anything, and walked back to the yard after receiving the envelope, thinking that she could put the check under the pillow and wait for him to expire automatically, but Misfortunes never come singly, as soon as Du Ruo lay down on the bed, he was woken up by the ringing of the phone. He opened his sore eyes and picked it up, but the other party was a strange and indifferent voice.

"May I ask if you are Du Liangxing's family member? Du Liangxing hit someone with a car last night and is now being detained in our bureau..."

Du Ruo will always remember that in just 24 hours at the beginning of July that year, his mother was hit by a car and flew to the ground in front of him. She stopped breathing in the emergency room more than ten hours later, and her father hit someone again on the way back a few hours later. …

Happiness is unattainable, she finally mustered up the courage to plan her life, and after that short 24 hours, she reshuffled everything...

Du Ruo staggered towards the alley with his mobile phone in his hand.

The sun was still glaring after ten o'clock. Du Ruo stood at the intersection to take a taxi, his eyes glazed over, dizzy, and he hurried to the traffic police brigade to meet Du Liangxing. He also hadn't slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, and his clothes were full of dried sweat... When I saw Du Ruo, I closed my eyes, and in front of so many traffic policemen, two turbid tears flowed down my face.

Du Ruo thought that day should be her Good Friday, the darkest day in her life.

After a general understanding of the situation, Du Ruo was even more desperate.

What Lu Liangxing bumped into was an old man who couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was walking on the road. The old man fell into a coma on the spot and was sent to the hospital. At dawn, the hospital replied that his life was not in danger, but the old man had a fractured spine and might face the risk of paraplegia. .

The old man's family has not yet come forward and refuses to discuss the issue of compensation, so Du Liangxing cannot be released on bail for the time being. In addition, this is considered a private use of the public car, so the work unit will definitely not count it as a work-related injury, and Du Liangxing is fully responsible, and the insurance company will not bear a lot of expenses. .

Du Ruo came out of the traffic police brigade, his back was covered with sweat, and his whole body was in a state of slump, as if his soul had disappeared, leaving only his body. Life could be so hopeless, as if overnight, the family was scattered and people died, and the culprit was Who is she, Du Ruo, herself!
If she hadn't been with Qiao Anming, her mother wouldn't have been so angry that she rushed onto the road and got into a car accident. If her mother hadn't had a car accident, her father wouldn't have gone back in the middle of the night and hit someone...

Karma, is there really karma in this world!

Du Ruo stood at the gate of the traffic police brigade, facing a crossroad leading to Sifang, but she suddenly didn't know where she should go!It seemed that whatever she did was wrong, and because of her own selfishness, she made the most outrageously wrong choice, which ended up hurting others and herself!
Qiao Anming has been calling Du Ruo all the time, because the public opinion has made her very ugly. Xiaosan, a vixen, shameless, destroying other people's families for money, such a deep humiliation, he is afraid that she will suffer too much, but Du Ruo never answered his phone calls. She didn't know what emotion she should use to talk to him, tell him her situation, and then ask for his mercy?Or just tell me about Gu Lan sending the photo?But what can be saved in this way?Mother will never come back to life...

That afternoon, Du Ruo received a call from the family of the old man, asking to go to the traffic police brigade to discuss compensation.It was still the traffic policeman who received Du Ruo in the morning. When he saw Du Ruo walking in, he asked strangely, "Is there no one else in your family? Why did you let a pregnant woman run around to deal with the accident?"

Du Ruo supported his sore back with his hands, shook his head, and replied: "There are four people in the family, but one is still in the morgue, one is detained here, and the other is in the hospital bed... I am the only one left. You said it wasn't for me to handle it, who else can do it for me?"

Seeing that her complexion was not good and her tone of voice was gloomy, the traffic policeman frowned and didn't ask any more questions.

The injury certificate of the old man who was hit has been issued. His spine was fractured and he was paraplegic. The family members demanded 30 yuan in compensation. Du Ruo didn't answer, but just stared blankly at the sunlight coming in through the window...

Seeing that she did not answer, the traffic policeman thought that she did not agree with the amount of compensation, so he kindly tugged at her sleeve and reminded in a low voice: "Paraplegic, 30 compensation is not high. If you disagree with this figure, your father Not to mention that you have to be detained, the other party can keep the old man in the hospital all the time, and you can't afford the hospitalization fee and the nursing fee...so agree, you will definitely suffer in the end..."

The traffic policeman spoke so earnestly that Du Ruo's eyelids moved, and he took the compensation form from the traffic policeman's hand and signed it.

Walking out of the traffic police brigade, it was almost evening, and the sun that had been showing off for a day finally restrained its edge, leaving only a little red light hanging on the branches in the west, like a ball of fire, which burned Du Ruo's eyes hard.

30, this amount is not small, and Du Ruo really can't afford it, but she is no longer so sensitive to the number of money, but she is still distracted, feeling that she is still in a dream, just wandering all the way to the door of the house with a dazed expression, I took out the key to open the door and went in, the soles of my feet felt weak, and I fell asleep as soon as I loaded it on the bed...

She believed since she was a child that there is no unbearable suffering in this world, but this time she felt that she really couldn't bear it.

The mother's body is still in the morgue, and the compensation with the driver who caused the accident has not yet been negotiated. My father was in a car accident again. You can get some compensation, but the procedure is extremely troublesome and the cycle is long, so Du Ruo fell on the bed, staring at the ceiling...

She tried to sort things out, but she got more and more confused. When she took out her mobile phone, there were still many missed calls from Qiao Anming, several of which were new records in the afternoon.

She didn't dare to call Qiao Anming because she was afraid that her emotions would be leaked, and she was afraid that her heart would soften.It's not that she is not moved, she is moved to death, her Qiao Anming is willing to give up half his life to make her a promise, but then what?Then what to do?
Things have developed to the present, his mother passed away, Gu Lan was hospitalized, and the matter between him and Qiao Anming has been exposed. As Ren Peiyin said, what is the point of living in exchange for life!
Besides, she loves him so much, how can she be willing to let him sacrifice everything for herself, she is not greedy, she told him earlier in the morning, she only needs it for a while, it doesn't matter for a lifetime!
So Du Ruo turned over with difficulty, reached under the pillow, touched the hard shell of the envelope, took it out, saw the number on the check, smiled at the corner of his mouth, touched his belly with his palm, and said to himself: "Son, Is everyone in the Qiao family so generous?"

Du Ruo fell asleep, didn't sleep well, woke up in bed before dawn, wanted to call Qiao Anming, or at least send a text message, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Just like what she once said in his arms: ... If one day we have to reach the end of the road, don't say goodbye, just pretend that we have never met before, delete the mobile phone number, delete the contact Way, wake up, live their own lives, okay?

How crow-mouthed she is, such pretentious words actually made her complete the sentence.

Sure enough, without saying a word, Du Ruo took the check to the bank, and his mood was very calm along the way, as if a prisoner sent to the execution ground finally sent the check to the window for handling business, his expression was so serious that he seemed to be serious. I'm going to die!
The father had been released on bail, and Du Ruo took all the 30 yuan in cash, stuffed it in a non-woven bag like the one used in supermarkets, and finally piled it heavily in front of the old man's family...

Coming out of the traffic police brigade, Du Ruo walked in front, and Du Liangxing followed closely behind her all the time. She didn't speak all the way, and walked very slowly, her somewhat messy hair fainted into a circle of fluffy fringes under the sun.

After passing the bus stop, she was still walking all the way, Du Liangxing couldn't help calling her: "Xiao Ruo, don't you want to go back by bus?"

She stopped and looked back at her father. The half-worn T-shirt that his father hadn't changed for two days was still stained with blood. Shaking his head, he continued to move forward.

Du Liangxing followed all the way again. Du Ruo felt that the hunched figure behind her was getting harder and harder to walk. She turned her head slowly and said, "Dad... don't follow, let me stay alone for a while..."

She has spoken very little in the past few days, and her vocal cords are sore, so her voice has become hoarse.Du Liangxing tossed and tossed for a few days, the blow was too great, and his mood was very low. When he saw his daughter say this, he seemed to say "hmm", so Du Ruo didn't say anything else, and continued to walk forward with his head down, leaving the hunched figure behind...

Her mind was in a mess, but her heart was blank.

The noon sun was hot on the face, and the skin was burned a little sore. There were no pedestrians on the road, but the noise of the car was loud. The sanitation in the third-tier small cities was not very good, and the wheels rolled up paper scraps and dust on the side of the road.

Du Ruo walked like that for more than half an hour, feeling that the T-shirt on the back was soaked, so she found a step and sat down.

Stomach churning and mind swollen, Qiao Anming's phone call came at that time. She looked at the word "Joe" that kept jumping on the screen, sniffed, and answered.

His voice was very deep, he didn't say hello, he just asked: "My mother went to Xuancheng to look for you?"

She didn't answer and waited a long time.

It wasn't that she didn't want to answer, it was because she was too emotionally blocked, as if all the words had disappeared, and her throat was so painful that she couldn't speak.

He didn't understand her situation, and continued to ask: "Why don't you talk?"

"..." She was still silent.

The other end was a little anxious, as if sighing, and persisted: "Answer me, Du Ruo, what happened?"

Du Ruo had stopped talking, her stomach was already big, and she could no longer hug her knees when she bent her upper body, so she could only bow slightly, and replied with all her strength: "Qiao Anming, we'd better...forget it..."

Suddenly there was no sound at the other end, only slight breathing was heard, which gradually changed from weak to heavy. Du Ruo thought he was going to explode, but he just said in a very low, low to almost lonely voice: "This kind of words, Can we meet again? I'll find you soon, where are you?"

……

Du Ruo hung up the phone, held the phone and sat there thinking for a while.In fact, she was not so sad anymore, too many things happened, she was caught off guard, she didn't seem to have time to stop and feel sad, she just swayed here...the road in front of her was dusty and the wheels were turning, but she was sitting there like a still life.She even despised herself a little, but she didn't cry. From the time her mother stopped breathing to now, she didn't shed a single tear. She just felt like a balloon, stretched infinitely, as if it could be light enough to fly.

It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon when I returned to the hospital, and I ate a meal at the small restaurant in front of the hospital. Although I couldn't swallow it in my mouth, Du Ruo still forced himself to eat half a bowl of rice and drink a bowl of soup.

Although she was exhausted, she was still clear-headed and knew that she could not be hungry for a long time while she was pregnant.

Walking from the hospital lobby to the inpatient building, I met many familiar nurses and doctors along the way, but they didn't say hello to Du Ruo. First, the word "Du Ruo" appeared frequently on major networks and magazines recently. The mistress, the mistress, is still pregnant with an illegitimate child, and the pharmaceutical tycoon, Qiao Anming, is unknown in the entire medical field, so when the nurses and doctors see Du Ruo, they no longer know what expression and tone to use to greet Du Ruo. My mother just had a car accident at the entrance of the hospital. Many staff in the hospital knew about such a tragic incident. In addition, she was in an extremely bad mood these days. She was walking on the road with a blank expression on her face, as if lost. It's like having a soul, and who dares to say hello to a soulless person.

So Du Ruo floated all the way to the corridor of the ward with his head covered, and when he reached the door, he heard Zheng Xiaoran's voice, pushed the door open, and Xiaoran was sitting on Xiaofan's bedside peeling oranges for him.

Xiao Fan first saw Du Ruo appear, raised his head, and shouted: "Sister..." His voice was also hoarse, his eyes were as red as a bunny, and he seemed to have cried again.

Du Ruo sniffed and said "um", Zheng Xiaoran turned around and saw Du Ruo at the door, with disheveled hair and a red face from the sun, but even so, he still felt thin, not at all like The plump appearance she had when she left Tongcheng.

Emotionally surging, Zheng Xiaoran took a sharp breath, and the circles of his eyes immediately turned red. He couldn't help but was afraid of crying in front of Xiaofan, so he dragged Du Ruo directly to the outside of the ward.

Du Ruo didn't resist, and was dragged by Zheng Xiaoran all the way to sit on the garden bench on the first floor of the inpatient building.

The two women stood side by side, one expressionless, the other wrinkling his nose, tried his best to hold back the sourness, and asked, "Du Ruo, why did you make yourself look like this?" Heavy, completely leaked emotions.

Du Ruo looked very calm, and replied: "It's too hot, I've walked for a long time, and I'm a little tired." He spoke very slowly, and kept looking ahead as he spoke, as if he was looking at something very seriously. , and it seems that there is no focal length.

Zheng Xiaoran felt distressed, and asked tentatively: "What's going on? Auntie is fine, why...?" Zheng Xiaoran couldn't help asking, but regretted it after asking, so he could only hold the back of Du Ruo's hand tightly, Thumbs rubbing back and forth over her protruding knuckles.

She thought Du Ruo would not answer, but the corners of her mouth curled up, and she said in a voice that was almost hoarse: "Qiao Anming's wife sent some photos to my mother. I aborted the child, but I didn't want to, and finally she rushed onto the road, just in front of the hospital, was hit by a truck, her skull was broken, and she couldn't be rescued..."

Her words are very clear, but a few words, as if she was reading a very sad poem. After finishing the reading, she pursed her lips again and stopped talking. It's like a blank.

Zheng Xiaoran still remembers that when he left Tongcheng, Du Ruo's belly was not so big, but he gained some weight, his skin was stretched out, and the thin layer was like an egg with its shell peeled off, and he was wrapped in a loose chiffon skirt Walking in front of you, like a soft white cloud.But now, the skin is tanned, and the hair around the ears is full of drooping and scattered hair. When the wind blows, it sways messily. What's more, the belly is already so big, wearing a light green cotton T-shirt, the whole person is sitting there upright, like a small pine tree that is about to fall but insists on standing upright.

She originally prepared a lot of comforting words on the way to Xuancheng, such as "You can't come back to life after death, you still have children, father and younger brother to take care of, so you have to mourn and change, and cheer up...", or how she cried too much Powerful, she hugged her in her arms, let her rub some snot on her clothes, patted her on the shoulder, and endured it with her... But now seeing Du Ruo who is so calm, Zheng Xiaoran who is ready Her comfort was useless at all, she felt that Du Ruo next to her seemed to have been sucked out of her soul, leaving only an empty frame.

At the end of the injury, there will be nothingness, a vast expanse of despair, and there will be no more sorrow.

When it was getting dark, Du Liangxing came to the hospital, and when he saw Zheng Xiaoran was there, he talked to each other again with tears in his eyes, and finally turned to look at Du Ruo, who sat by the window all afternoon, not talking much, even rarely move.

Du Liangxing was a little worried, and walked over and said, "Xiao Ruo, go back and rest, I'll be with Xiaofan in the hospital..." After one night of grief and two nights of detention, Du Liangxing was also tossed and thin, so he just went back to take a shower , and changed into a clean short-sleeved one, so he looked refreshed.

The human heart has a very strong ability to bear. No matter how great the suffering is, it feels as if the world will perish because of it. Only the same.

When Zheng Xiaoran heard what Du Liangxing said, he also helped to persuade Du Ruo: "Go back and lie down for a while, even if you don't want to sleep, you have to think about the child..."

Hearing the word "children", her dull eyes seemed to flicker. Du Ruo looked back at Xiaofan and walked out without saying a word. Uncle, I will accompany her back..."

Du Liangxing's eyes were a little red again, his voice was sobbing violently, he buried his head to cover the corners of his eyes, and said, "Okay, you stay with her, I really don't feel at ease seeing her like this..."

Zheng Xiaoran's nose also started to turn sore, so he didn't dare to answer, nodded his head a few times and went out in the direction of Du Ruo.

Du Ruo walked quickly, and seemed to think of something on the way, and quickly took out his mobile phone to call Du Liangxing: "Dad, Xiaofan doesn't know about the fact that you bumped into someone and was detained, so don't tell him..."

Zheng Xiaoran was in a hurry to chase all the way, and only saw Du Ruo when he reached the entrance of the hall.

She supported her back with one hand, and grabbed the phone with the other. The screen of the phone was on, and the faint white light source reflected the outline of her hair blown by the wind. Zheng Xiaoran took another breath, chased after her, and pulled Du Ruo Arm, pretending to be relaxed and said: "I will accompany you back, stay at your house at night, and share a bed with you..."

Du Ruo stopped, didn't speak, and walked forward with his head down.

Gu Lan was finally out of danger. Aunt Qin went to Dr. Qin and asked her if the situation could be cured by surgery. A husband who trusts and relies on is in danger of being taken away, so Aunt Qin is heartbroken, thinking that if the young lady recovers from her illness one day, maybe life will not be so difficult.

Doctor Qin also read the newspaper and knew that Qiao Anming had a woman outside, so he sympathized with Gu Lan's situation, but sympathy was sympathy. At least she was still a doctor and was responsible for her patients, so she answered clearly: "Actually, surgery is not impossible, but the chance of success is very low. It would be better if it was a few years ago, because she was still young at that time, and her body was still able to hold on. I once suggested that Mr. Qiao consider letting her He has never agreed to Gu Lan's heart transplant, but I can understand that he has always been very careful with Gu Lan. He has his concerns and doesn't want her to take this risk, because Gu Lan's heart disease is a bit complicated, so it is extremely It is possible that if the operation is not successful, you will not be able to get off the operating table..."

Dr. Qin has been the family doctor of Qiao's family for so many years, so he somewhat understands Aunt Qin's anxious temper, so he tried to explain in a calm tone so as not to scare her so much.

But Aunt Qin still started to wipe her tears, and said in a broken voice: "Our young lady is suffering. She used to be in poor health. At least my uncle can take care of her. Now my uncle has a woman outside, and that woman is pregnant with a child. When the child is born, How can our young lady be accommodated in this family, if she gets sick so often, I don't dare to think about how she will live in the future..."

Dr. Qin frowned a little. She saw Qiao Anming's care for Gu Lan over the past ten years, so she took off her glasses and patted Aunt Qin on the shoulder: "Okay, Aunt Qin, you are worrying too much. Not really I spoke for Mr. Qiao. Gu Lan’s disease is a fetal defect. In her case, many patients would not live to be 20 years old. Purchasing imported medicine to maintain, maybe she is long gone..."

Aunt Qin raised her head when she heard this, and stopped crying: "Master was very kind to my uncle during his lifetime, and his last wish was to let him take good care of Miss, so he should do these things, not to mention Miss is still his wife..." He sobbed a few more times as he spoke, and there seemed to be a bit of anger and resentment in the tone of those words.

Doctor Qin still had something to say, but he felt that this was a family matter between the Qiao family and the Gu family. She was an outsider after all, so she sighed and didn't say it.

Qiao Anming has already arranged his work itinerary for the next few days, and he has bought a ticket to Xuancheng.

After Ren Peiyin came back from Xuancheng, she went directly to the hospital to find Gu Lan, and told her that Du Ruo had accepted the check, so that she could recover from her illness and not agree to Qiao Anming's divorce.Gu Lan agreed, but she was actually not happy in her heart. She and Qiao Anming had been married for so many years, and only the first few years the old lady had a smile on her face, but after she found out that she hadn't had children for a long time, the old lady's face was a little relieved Go, after Gu Zhengmao's death, Qiao Anming's career is getting bigger and bigger, and the old lady's expression is even more willing to let her go, but this face that has been cold to her for more than ten years suddenly warms up.

Gu Lan was lying on the hospital bed, looking at the same heart-warming orange light, she couldn't help laughing, it's so strange, this is the first time that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have "same enemy Kai" in more than ten years!
