Chapter 3 Heart Knot
I don't know how long he slept, but Cao Bo suddenly woke up from his sleep. His first reaction was to look at the old man, but the old man still fell asleep peacefully with a slight snoring.
Cao Bo glanced at the wall clock on the wall and didn't expect that it was only four o'clock in the morning at this time. It is reasonable that Cao Bo should not wake up so easily when he was so tired before, but Cao Bo always felt a little panicked and felt that some things should be done but not done.
Because of what happened in the inpatient department, the outpatient ward was fully arranged. This time is the time when the depth of human sleep is the highest, so except for some slight sounds in the room, there is only the noise of Xia Chan.
Cao Bo walked to the window and looked out. Because this is only the second floor, all Cao Bo could see was the empty yard and a few crooked willow trees.
The moonlight seems to echo Cao Bo's heart. Not only does the dim yellow string moon not look beautiful, but there is also a mist in the sky that makes the moon dim.
Although Cao Bo didn't think about anything in his mind, he was extremely upset. He knew where the crux was, but he didn't know how to solve it.
"Kid, what's on your mind?" Suddenly, Cao Bo heard the old man's voice coming from behind him. Although the voice was not loud, Cao Bo could still hear it clearly in such a quiet room.
Cao Bo suddenly turned around and found that the old man sat up at some point. Cao Bo stepped forward to hold the other party, but the old man waved his hand and said that he was fine.
"The first time I saw you, I knew that you were not a alcoholic in the strict sense. On the contrary, you are still an agile, meticulous and careful person. The old man leaned back, and Cao Bo stood up the pillow and let the old man lean on it.
"So you should not drink often. If you don't encounter something difficult to solve, you will never think of anesthetising yourself with alcohol." The old man was very accurate. Although Cao Bo had a drink when he had nothing to do in high school, when he went to college, Cao Bo hardly drank much.
"Last time it was because a girl had an accident." The old man looked at Cao Bo softly, and his expression was as benevolent as his eyes, which made Cao Bo feel that the other party was very close.
"What's the reason this time?" The old man seems to have seen through Cao Bo: "I can see that it should be an emotional matter, right?"
Maybe the other party has met too many people, so they have rich life experience, right? Cao Bo only felt that he had been thoroughly thought about by this old man.
"If I tell you that the girl mentioned last time actually didn't die, it was impossible for me to have an intersection with her, but through this incident, I found that I had feelings for that girl..." Cao Bo hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Do you think it's incredible?"
The old man smiled. He shook his head gently. Obviously, he didn't take this as a strange thing.
"Since you have a good impression, then fall in love." The old man then suddenly realized, and then the smile on his face gradually stopped, showing an embarrassed expression.
"If you can simply fall in love, you won't worry so much." The old man asked Cao Bo if he had a girlfriend now. Cao Bo felt that since he believed in the other party, it was better not to hide anything.
So Cao Bo briefly described his relationship with Xia Menghan, and also said that he hugged Jin Haoyue at the gate of the hospital at that time, which caused Xia Menghan's misunderstanding.
"Actually, I also know that it's wrong to step on two boats." Cao Bo was like a child who did something wrong in front of the other party. He completely opened his heart.
Cao Bo said that he liked Xia Menghan from the bottom of his heart, and the other party did not dislike his poverty, and still took good care of himself in all aspects of life and aspects.
Originally, Cao Bo thought that he would have a happy life like this in his life, but he didn't expect that the arrival of a Korean exchange group would completely disrupt his emotional life.
Jin Haoyue is excellent and can even be compared with Xia Menghan, and her mind and perseverance are the most attractive to Cao Bo. Coupled with the sudden accident, Cao Bo had to be attracted by the girl.
"Although there are some things I can't say in detail, I can tell you that I have experienced life and death with that girl..." Cao Bo observed the other party's reaction while saying it. If the old man showed even a little disapproval or disgusted expression, Cao Bo would not continue to talk.
However, the old man has been very safe throughout the whole process. There is no expression on his face, which makes Cao Bo's mentality more peaceful.
A few seconds after Cao Bo finished speaking, it seemed that the old man was thinking about how to say it, and then he finally expressed his opinion.
"People's hearts are the most difficult to think about. I can't say that you are right or wrong to do this, because there is no sign of feelings between the opposite sex." The old man said that he could not provide too much advice on this aspect. After all, it was a matter of two people, and outsiders had no right to speak.
"You just need to remember what I said before. You must make the final decision carefully, because I think you will be very happy no matter which girl you are with, but you have to see clearly which one is most suitable for you." The old man couldn't help but wake up again when he said this: "Although indecision hurts three people, you can't recognize your heart clearly, and it's even more unfair to everyone after rashly choosing."
Finally, the old man also said something that Cao Bo had never considered.
"Although it may not be feasible now, in such a society, as long as you have the ability, what if you have both fish and bear paws?" The old man whispered in a deep whisper, "Girls from two countries, it depends on what means you can use..."
Cao Bo naturally understood what the other party meant, but he felt that it was good to have one of the girls with his own conditions. Who is qualified to sit and enjoy the blessings of others?
"Don't underestimate yourself at any time. You should know how high your ideal is and how high your achievements can be."
At that time, in the bar, Cao Bo's heart knot had actually been untied a lot. Although this conversation did not involve much substantive content, Cao Bo's heart was much brighter.
At that time, Cao Bo silently planned that after dealing with the old man's affairs, he immediately went to Xia Menghan. No matter what the future results between them would be, Cao Bo must let the other party understand what he was thinking.
After talking about his own affairs, Cao Bo felt that he had to talk to the old man about his condition. Although the old man insisted on not agreeing to the operation before, there were some things that must be done.
However, Cao Bo just talked about calling the old man's son. The old man suddenly became hot like an explosive that pulled the fuse.
"Impossible! Why bother him with this little thing?" The old man shouted in his voice, and then he found that he was in the ward. There were many patients and accompanying family members sleeping, so he immediately closed his mouth, so the sound just now did not wake anyone up, otherwise he had to fight.
"How is this a trivial matter?" Cao Bo tried to keep his voice down and asked, "Why can you see through other people's affairs, but you are so obsessed with yourself?"
"Do you raise your son just to avoid causing him trouble? If you are really not here, do you think he will be happy?" Cao Bo didn't want to hide the other party's condition, otherwise the old man would think he was in good health.
After the old man heard Cao Bo say that he could only live for one day at most, his expression really faded, but in an instant he became relaxed again.
"Oh? It seems that my script can last for another month!" The old man's optimism really made Cao Bo sigh, and the old man seemed to have made up his mind not to have surgery. Cao Bo really couldn't figure out why he made such a decision.
"If it's a money relationship, we can all find a way together..." Cao Bo still tried to persuade the old man to find his son back and discuss it.
However, the old man waved his hand and told Cao Bo that his body was already like this, and the family's savings could not bear the cost of the operation at all.
And that bar is the hard work of the old man's son. Even if the current situation is not good, the old man has to keep this industry. He firmly believes that if his son returns to China in the future, he can live well with this bar.
"You don't have to persuade me. I'll leave the hospital at dawn." The old man said that he would try his best to save some money. As for the deposit paid in advance, he would return it to Cao Bo when he got home.
"I'm old. What's the point of living two more years?" When the old man said this, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes: "My wife left three years ago, and my son was not around..."
"Then you have to get your son back as soon as possible!" Cao Bo felt that since he could not persuade the old man to have an operation, he could turn to let him find his son back. As long as he knew his father's condition, Cao Bo felt that as long as he was a normal person, he would not object to the operation as soon as possible.
And Director Liu will go to other places in two days. It is urgent to find the old man's son to come back quickly, or to contact him immediately.
But even such a proposal was rejected by the old man, which made Cao Bo very difficult to understand. Didn't the old man want his son to be with him in the last period of his life?
"Don't worry about my affairs." The old man said that he was a little tired, so he lay down in ** again and turned his face inside as if he was deliberately avoiding Cao Bo.
Cao Bo felt that he had tried his best. Who knew that this stubborn old man was so stubborn, but since he had insisted on doing so, Cao Bo had to sit back in his chair and stared at the moon outside the window.
"Ky." The old man suddenly whispered, "Thank you."
