Chapter 987 Snowman
The heavy snow outside makes the gray city feel cold and pure.
However, Ning Weimin, who was dressed warmly and walked out of the hospital with Qu Xiao, was in a more depressed mood than when he first arrived.
If nothing else, it was the first time he saw a chemotherapy patient today.
In his mind, he still clearly remembered Qu Xiao’s mother in her prime one or two years ago.
She was a pretty woman who looked very dignified, liked perms, and was always smiling.
Her excellent genes not only gave Qu Xiao an outstanding appearance, but also perfectly matched his handsome father.
Especially when people reach middle age, they look more and more like the movie actor Wang Danfeng.
But it had only been less than two years. When Ning Weimin saw her again, she was already extremely thin.
The appearance is withered and the hair is falling out.
Even the optimism, kindness and aura in him were gone.
This huge contrast made Ning Weimin feel a lot more emotional.
It is impossible not to think about the shortness of life, the unfairness of life, and the feeling of powerlessness that is difficult to control in the face of the harshness of fate.
He suddenly discovered that in fact, the most difficult thing in life is not success, fame, or wealth.
But the four words "health and safety".
Like the "Five Blessings" Kang Shude once told him, excess is never enough, and none of them is indispensable. That is the summary of all the blessings that people dream of.
Compared with the "luck, wealth, longevity, happiness, and wealth" that modern people admire, they appear to be philistine and superficial.
How many people from ancient times to the present can have longevity, wealth, health, virtue, and a good death at the same time?
Even emperors are few and far between.
Looking at it this way, if he was still worried about the mystery of his life experience in the first few days, it is really a small problem not worth mentioning.
To say something that shouldn't be said, for him, the tragedy of the Qu family was like a refreshing dose of refreshing medicine.
In one fell swoop, he was pulled out of the unnecessary troubles he was feeling, resolving his depression, and re-correcting his attitude towards his own life.
As for Qu Xiao, this girl's inner feelings at this time were exactly the opposite of Ning Weimin's.
Since I returned to China, I have faced a sudden family disaster and my mother is on the sickbed.
Qu Xiao felt like the world was shattering and the earth was shattering, and he shuddered. He longed to cry out his troubles to Ning Weimin.
But she is also a strong and independent girl.
She didn't want to show weakness in front of Ning Weimin, nor did she want to act coquettishly. She didn't want to put any pressure on Ning Weimin.
I am especially grateful that Ning Weimin has helped me a lot. Especially knowing that he is currently busy with important matters in Tokyo, I dare not, and are unwilling, to bring out my private affairs at home. Disturb his mind.
What's more, in name they are just superiors, subordinates and friends.
So she never contacted Ning Weimin or disclosed her predicament.
Instead, he silently shouldered the burden, tried his best to share his father's worries, and helped him take care of his sick mother.
On the other hand, she really hopes that she can be independent, strong, and omnipotent. It would be better if she could help Ning Weimin solve his problems.
But then again, a girl's shoulders are too delicate, no matter how strong she is, there is a limit.
Not to mention she is so young.
Having silently shouldered the burden of life for a long time will inevitably make you tired and lonely over time.
She will also be more eager for care and help, and want to see Ning Weimin more and more, and want to pour out her troubles to him.
At this moment, Ning Weimin actually appeared.
And as soon as they met, they found a new way to bring a solution to Qu Xiao's family.
So regardless of whether Ning Weimin's idea comes true or not, this is like a ray of hope that sweeps away the uneasiness and darkness in Qu Xiao's heart.
Which girl in this world doesn't like the story of "Daddy-Long-Legs"?
What girl doesn’t want an omnipotent hero to lend a helping hand when she needs it most?
Ning Weimin has become a simple and safe harbor for Qu Xiao.
At this moment, Qu Xiao’s love for Ning Weimin was simply beyond strong.
Whether it is moved, grateful or anything else.
Anyway, these emotions can be integrated with love, becoming hot, exciting, and even a little abnormal.
She had ten thousand impulses to throw herself into his arms.
She wanted to turn into snow, rustling down, and land on his body and shoulders.
However, she was a little afraid and shy to show it.
Although I really wanted to take another step forward and give it a brave try, I didn't know what to do for the moment. I just suppressed my face and turned red, and hesitated to speak.
While she was hesitating, she was inspired by the still falling crystal snowflakes and the already deserted streets.
She finally had an idea, took advantage of the situation, and sent out an invitation.
"It's snowing heavily. There is a street garden over there. Let's build a snowman together..."
"Oh...what?" Ning Weimin woke up in shock. After coming to his senses, looking at Qu Xiao, who was smiling so brilliantly, he was actually quite confused.
"No, it's so cold, don't let you freeze..."
"Such heavy snow is so rare, I haven't seen it for several years. Besides, I'm dressed like this It won't freeze. Let's go..."
Qu Xiao took Ning Weimin's arm and pulled him hard.
Ning Weimin looked up and down for a while and saw that she was very interested, showing a rare lively childishness.
I was really stubborn, so I had to compromise.
"Okay, then I'll push the snowball, and you can do the rest. Don't freeze your hands."
"No, I'm not afraid of the cold. Let's do it together, otherwise it's okay What’s the point?”
"It's up to you to dress up the snowman. I'll do the rough work, and you'll do the fine work. Don't forget, it takes physical strength to make the snowball big. Unless you just want to make a small one." Ning Wei People explain it considerately.
"Well, I can also help you deliver snow..." Qu Xiao accepted.
This girl is indeed very clever.
With the division of labor and cooperation, the two worked together to build a beautiful snowman in less than thirty minutes.
When it was almost finished, Qu Xiao’s face turned red and he breathed hot air while correcting the face of the snowman while appreciating the masterpiece with great joy.
"Does it look good?"
"It looks good. Only you can make a snowman so beautiful, I can't do it alone..."
Ning Weimin admired it sincerely. Hearing the praise, Qu smiled brightly, and his voice was like the impact of ice cubes, pure and crisp.
"If you like it, I will make one for you every time it snows."
"Thank you."
Ning Weimin didn't know how to word this sentence that meant something, it was just a formal response.
"I saw a very beautiful poem in the newspaper recently, do you want to listen to it?"
Qu Xiao suddenly mentioned another seemingly unrelated thing, Ning Weimin had a vague premonition of something.
“……”
So even though he didn't get the answer he wanted, he stared at the snowman's crooked smile, gently covered his cheeks with his hands, and recited it in a low voice.
“The fog wetted my wings, but the wind did not allow me to hesitate any longer. Shore, my beloved shore, I just said goodbye to you yesterday, and you are here again today. Tomorrow we will be at another latitude Encounter. It is a storm and a light that connects us. It is a storm and another light that separates us. You are here day and night, even if we are not afraid of the ends of the earth. On my voyage, I am in your sight.”
After hiding it for too long, she finally found the courage to confess.
She loved him. She didn’t know when it started, but she had already fallen in love with him and couldn’t extricate herself.
What has really hindered her all this time is the panic and sensitivity to this emotion due to lack of experience, as well as the inability to have enough courage and confidence to express it.
However, she loved him so much. She wanted to hug him and be hugged by him.
I want to cry with him, laugh with him, work hard together, and run towards hope together...
Although there were changes in her family later, she was deterred for a time, and she did not dare to drag everything down anymore. Love someone.
But now all her worries have been put aside, and she finally decided to face the difficulties, even if there is only a glimmer of hope.
"You remember it so clearly." Ning Weimin sighed, clearly feeling that Qu Xiao's eyes were different.
He was a little at a loss, a little panicked, and didn't know how to respond.
“This snowman... looks like you?”
Although Qu Xiao was facing the snowman, as if he was talking to the snowman, the target of his attack was Ning Weimin beside him.
"Well..." Ning Weimin said perfunctorily and wanted to run away. "We should go."
"Why are you so anxious? Can I kiss it?" Qu Xiao was bold and persistent.
For a girl who is shy and has no love experience, this is undoubtedly an act of reckless abandon.
"You are really fooling around. It's such a cold weather. Let's go quickly. I'll take you back. Don't get cold."
Ning Weimin responded vaguely, which was a tactful refusal.
He just wanted to leave this place of right and wrong, and suddenly realized that the current situation was the one he had been trying to avoid.
However, there is no turning back arrow when the bow is fired. Now that Qu Xiao has been launched, he will definitely approach step by step.
"I'm not cold." She said tremblingly, "Brother Ning, I...for you...me, both of us..."
She didn't lie, her blood was rushing The temperature was enough to relax her body.
The reason why her voice sounded like this was not because she was cold, but because she was a girl who was in love for the first time and longed for love.
The snowman was born for the sunshine, and she was born for him.
It's a pity that Ning Weimin fell into the intertwining of contradictions, like a dying larva stuck in a spider's web.
There was a smile in front of his eyes, but in his mind was Matsumoto Keiko. She was different from the shy and cute girl in front of him, but she smiled like a holy mother...
He suddenly Be alert, and finally realize that there is no way to avoid it, and it’s time to cut it off, otherwise it will be harmful to everyone.
Although in his mind, the best way to solve this problem has not yet been decided.
Although Qu Xiao is currently experiencing great pain in life, it would be extremely cruel to hurt her emotionally again.
But time waits for no one, and when things have reached this point, he can no longer think about it anymore. He must see the outcome.
"Xiaoqu, I have something to tell you...I am in Tokyo and already...have a girlfriend..."
…………
Be refused.
Five minutes later, after listening to Ning Weimin’s stumbling confession, Qu laughed as hard as he fell into an ice cave when he heard the bad news.
She turned around in shame, her back to Ning Weimin, and her body began to tremble.
This time, it’s really cold.
Qu Xiao knows that love is difficult.
But she didn’t expect that her love would be so difficult to reach.
She can never catch the light...
She bit her lower lip hard, trying to control herself.
But almost as soon as he turned around, a few tears burst out of his eyes and fell on the snow.
A few drops hung on the cheeks, almost condensing into ice beads.
"I...I'm sorry!" Ning Weimin knew he was wrong, but he didn't know how to comfort him, and he was in a panic.
However, to his great surprise, Qu Xiao reached out and covered his cheek, taking the opportunity to wipe away his tears.
After a while, she suddenly raised her head, breathed into her hands a few times, and said with a smile.
"Brother Ning, thank you. I will always remember your help to me. You don't need to apologize, I am happy for you and hope you are happy. Really..."
After that, She patted the snow on her body a few times and walked towards the road outside the garden in the middle of the street.
Ning Weimin followed silently, looking at Qu Xiao's back, wondering whether he should speak or keep silent.
The window paper was finally pierced, but what they got was not relief, but even heavier.
Although the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain, the pain is just as fatal.
Ning Weimin felt that his body and muscles had become stiff, his conscience and emotions had become numb, and even his brain and heart seemed to be frozen by ice and snow. He only felt unspeakable frustration and guilt.
At this moment, the snow is falling even harder.
Colorful snowflakes fell silently on the snowman behind the two of them.
It seems to protect it, but also seems to submerge it.
The snow is falling quietly, falling...
