After dinner, Yanzi and I went to Yanzi's mansion. Her boyfriend is on a business trip and will probably be back in half a month. Yanzi pitifully begged me to stay with her for a while, so I readily agreed. Firstly, I really feel sorry for Yanzi. I don't want her to be alone. Secondly, I can't go home at this critical time. I'm naturally happy that someone is willing to take me in.
Seeing that I readily agreed to her request, Yanzi danced happily. As soon as she entered the house, she was anxious to find her newly bought pajamas for me. She even stuffed a new blanket on the luxurious bed, as if she was afraid of neglecting this distinguished guest. We lay in the warm quilt, as if we were children, with endless words in our hearts. We talked about the beauty of childhood, the misfortune of marriage, and the hardships of life. When we were happy, we laughed, and when we were sad, we cried silently. It felt like we could not tell each other our stories for three lifetimes. Time gradually dissipated in our endless conversation. Soon, it was midnight. The looming new moon outside the window was suddenly covered by dark clouds. It seemed that a snowstorm was coming. I lay on my side, watching the swallow with a smile on her lips. I didn't know when she had fallen asleep. Afraid that the cold winter night would invade Yanzi's exposed arms, I gently pinched the corners of the blanket for her, hoping that she could sleep soundly tonight and have a sweet dream.
The swallows 'breathing resounded in my ears. Perhaps it was because of the change in the environment, but at this moment, I actually didn't feel sleepy at all. This strange house made me feel a little cold. She wrapped herself tightly in the blanket and slowly closed her eyes. She counted in her heart, just like when she had insomnia when she was young. Perhaps she would snore before she counted to 100. Sure enough, this method was very effective. I unknowingly fell asleep.
Fiery red maple leaves fell on the dilapidated train tracks. The red color was shocking, like flowing blood, making people afraid to approach. Lu Kai was dressed in a straight white suit, making him look even more handsome. He stood on the track covered in maple leaves with a smile, like an angel who had landed on earth. This combination of white and red is as beautiful as a western oil painting in my eyes. Just as I was so happy that I wanted to step into this oil painting and become the female lead, a long train roared onto the track. Its speed was so fast that it was difficult to describe with words. In the blink of an eye, it had already approached Lu Kai's body. I don't know if it was the maple leaves or the blood on Lu Kai's body, but my eyes were red. That red made me tremble in fear and break my heart. I cried out Lu Kai's name and fainted on the fiery track.
"Qiuqiu, are you alright?" Yanzi sat on the bed and looked at me nervously.
I touched my wet forehead and slowly sat up. I said with lingering fear,"I had a nightmare!"
"Is it about Lu Kai?" Yanzi poured me a cup of hot water to calm me down. I drank two sips of hot water and slowly recovered from the nightmare. I told Yanzi about this terrible dream.
After Yanzi heard my story, she called out nervously,""Could something really have happened to Lu Kai?"
Although I wasn't sure if I really liked Lu Kai, I didn't want the scene in my dream to really happen. I prayed for him silently in my heart, hoping that he would be a good person and live a peaceful life.
"Qiuqiu, why don't I accompany you to find him tomorrow?”Yanzi said as she got up and put on her clothes. Through the glass window, she saw that the sky was already bright. She wanted to get up and prepare breakfast.
I slowly put on my clothes and mumbled,"Let's talk about it in the afternoon!"
After eating Yanzi's carefully prepared breakfast, I hugged Yanzi and said goodbye. Then, I rushed out and took the bus to the hospital to work.
As soon as I entered the department, I heard everyone discussing something enthusiastically in the nursing office from afar. However, when I stepped into the office, everyone was silent. Xiao Zhang greeted me with a smile, while the others mysteriously dispersed.
I found it strange. I grabbed Xiao Song, who had a strange expression on his face, and asked,"Girl, what are you guys talking about so enthusiastically? Why did you all leave when I came?”
Little Song's big eyes were wide open, and her round face was flushed red. After a while, her eyes lit up, and she said loudly with saliva flying everywhere,"Everyone is talking about the movie they watched last night. It was so good!”She even deliberately put on an intoxicated expression.
I looked at Xiao Song suspiciously. It wasn't the first time we were discussing movies in the department. Why was everyone silent when I came this time? They were probably talking about me. Xiao Song saw my untrusting gaze and slipped into the treatment room. In order to understand everyone's strange behavior, I looked at Xiao Zhang's face. Xiao Zhang smiled sweetly."Sister Ye Qiu, I'm really fine. It's getting late. Hurry up and change your clothes!”
Seeing Xiao Zhang's sweet smile, I calmly walked into the locker room. After the morning meeting, the head nurse waved me to her office. My heart was in a mess. I tried hard to recall if I had made any mistakes at work these past few days, but after thinking for a long time, I couldn't think of any mistakes I had made. In the end, I simply stopped thinking about it. Everything was up to fate. At most, I would just learn to be more thick-skinned!
"Ye Qiu, sit!" The head nurse's attitude today was very kind, and she didn't have any intention of reprimanding me. Seeing her speak to me so humbly, I felt even more uneasy. I didn't dare to sit or look into her eyes. The situation is different from before. Could it be that she wants to have a final conversation with me? (I might be expelled from the department, right?）
"Sit!" The Head Guard pressed me against the chair and poured me a cup of hot tea. I held the cup of tea and became even more flustered. I didn't know how to deal with this terrifying ending.
"Ye Qiu, I've troubled you for the past half a month! You shouldered such a big matter alone and didn't say anything!”The Head Protector sat down opposite me like a kind old mother, looking at me with heartache. I was even more confused by her words. I've already reported to her about the critical patients in the department and the difficult technical operations. I'm not as good as she said. I'm not as righteous as she said.
The chief guard took a sip of tea and said slowly,"Last Saturday, Deputy Bureau Chief Liu's daughter got married. The director, I, and the others attended the wedding banquet. What shocked me was that the groom was actually your husband, Gu Cheng. I thought I got the wrong person. Later, I heard from the leaders in the bureau that Gu Cheng had divorced and married Bureau Chief Liu's daughter with a son!”
When I heard the head nurse's words, I shivered from the cold. I hurriedly took a sip of tea in an attempt to warm my cold heart, but the tea quickly turned into tears and flowed down my face uncontrollably.
"Child, cry if you feel wronged. I understand how you feel now!”The head nurse's eyes were filled with pity. Her gentle tone made me completely lose control. I lay on the table and cried. After crying, she seemed to feel much better. She calmly told the chief nurse the reason for my divorce with Gu Cheng. The Head Guard agreed with my choice and said gently,"A woman can't give up her ideals for a man. If Gu Cheng really loves you, he should respect your choice. Since Gu Cheng doesn't respect your choice, you don't have to worry about him. Leaving him is a good thing for you.”
I wiped away my tears and squeezed out a smile. I nodded in agreement with the Head Protector. I didn't expect that Gu Cheng, that bastard, would actually despise the poor and love the rich. He actually had the ability to get close to the daughter of the Director of the Health Bureau. Actually, this isn't considered Gu Cheng's climbing up. Their marriage can be said to be a strong alliance. And what am I? I'm just a little nurse working under his mother-in-law. If I make her precious daughter unhappy one day, the two of them will kill me as easily as stepping on an ant. I don't want to think about anything. I'll just go back to being a poor girl and work hard. I'll try my best not to let others catch my pigtails.
"Ye Qiu, I remember that you haven't finished your annual leave from last year? Go home and rest for three days to adjust your emotions. I don't want to see you in a daze!”The chief guard smiled and patted my shoulder.
Didn't you finish your annual leave last year? I had long forgotten about it. I didn't expect the Head Protector to remember it. I was so touched that tears almost welled up in my eyes. The Head Protector smiled as she watched me walk out of her office. Unexpectedly, there were a few nurses outside the door who seemed to be eavesdropping. When they saw me coming out, they quickly retreated. I was too lazy to argue with them. I planned to go shopping with Yanzi after changing my clothes. I now realized that shopping and eating were the best ways to relax.
"Aiyo, Ye Qiu! Are you going back for your annual leave?" The most seductive nurse in the department, Liu Xue, walked up to me in an unfriendly manner. She was the most beautiful nurse in the department and was very good at seducing men. Most of the male doctors in the department liked to flirt with her. Even the director, who was over 50 years old, took special care of her. Someone had even seen her meeting with the director in a hotel. With someone backing her up, she swaggered around in the department and didn't even put the head nurse in her eyes. However, I wasn't afraid of her. As long as she dared to slack off at work, I would criticize her face to face. This made her hate me and see me as a thorn in her side!
"Why? Is there a problem with me taking annual leave?”My gaze is so cold that it can kill. I hate this kind of foxy woman the most in my life.
"Of course, no problem. It's good to protect your parents. If they give you annual leave just because you're divorced, then I think it's better for everyone to get more divorces!”Liu Xue looked at me mockingly. At the same time, she gave a glance to the nurses beside her. A few nurses who were on good terms with her laughed and said,"Yes, why don't we get a divorce and rest for a while?”
I was so angry that my face turned pale. I wanted to strangle this hateful woman to death, but my rationality told me that I couldn't do that. I should have my manners. If I were to argue with such a cheap woman, it would only make me look like I had no class. I let out a sigh of relief and put on a smile. I said very casually,"Divorce has become fashionable now. It's not bad for you to give it a try!”
Liu Xue obviously didn't expect me to resolve her challenge so easily. She was so angry that her eyebrows were raised and she couldn't say anything.
"Everyone, go ahead. I'll be leaving first!" I easily took off my white coat and deliberately hummed a tune as I walked out of the department. Liu Xue wants to see me sad and down. I won't let her have her way and anger her to death!
After walking out of the hospital, I called Yanzi."What are you doing?"
"I'm watching TV. You're actually not busy anymore!”
"The Head Nurse gave me three days off. I'm in a good mood. Hurry up and take a taxi over. There's a very authentic Sichuan hotpot restaurant near our hospital.”
"Really? Are you finally being generous today?"
"Of course. I can't keep eating your food. Come over quickly!”
"Alright!" Yanzi sounded very happy. It seemed that she had been waiting for me for a long time. I hung up the phone and stood by the roadside to wait for Yanzi. She was indeed called Yanzi. She was so fast that she arrived in front of me in less than five minutes.
"Did you fly here?" I exclaimed.
Yanzi laughed." I've been waiting for your meal. How can I not be fast?"”
We came to this hotpot restaurant while laughing and joking. Although it was only past ten o'clock, there were quite a number of people inside. We found an empty seat and sat down. Yanzi suddenly asked me,"Why is your Head Guard suddenly so kind as to give you three days off?"”
"She knows about my divorce and wants me to go home and adjust!”I said calmly, as if it had nothing to do with me.
"Does everyone in your department know?”
"Yes, everyone knows! It was hard for everyone not to know that Gu Cheng, that bastard, had become the son-in-law of the Director of the Health Bureau!”
"What is it? So close! Tell me!" Yanzi was anxious to know the inside story. I slowly told her what had happened. After listening, I didn't know if she was scolding Gu Cheng or praising him, but she actually laughed out loud and said,"I didn't expect this kid to be so capable!”
"Alright, let's eat!" I stuffed a piece of fried bread into her mouth, afraid that she would continue to talk about Gu Cheng. I didn't want to hear those two words at all now.
Yanzi seemed to suddenly understand what I was thinking. She obediently ate and didn't say anything else. When she was full, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore and said carefully,"How about we go look for Lu Kai in the afternoon?”
I was shocked by Yanzi's words. The nightmare from last night resurfaced in my mind. I nodded with a smile and agreed to Yanzi's suggestion.
