“I’m Zheng Ren. “
“Uncle Zheng, how are you?” Shi Jian reached out his hand.
His hand was a little pale and thin. His veins were green under his skin, but they did not bulge under his thin skin. It was like moss trying to grow in the cracks of rocks, unable to grow into a towering tree no matter what.
His muscles had shrunk, and he was so thin that his bones could be seen.
“Call me big brother.” Zheng Ren said to Shi Jian with a smile.
“You’re so old …”
“Call me big brother.”
“Brother Zheng, Hello.”
“That’s right. ” Zheng Ren was very happy and shook hands with Shi Jian seriously.
When their hands touched, Zheng Ren could feel that his skin temperature was very low and his pulse was very fast.
He was in a bad physical condition and had a terminal illness. He estimated that he had less than a month to live.
“Shi Jian …” He said.
“Just call me little stone, that’s what my mom calls me.” Shi Jian’s voice was a little hoarse. He looked at Zheng Ren and asked in a low voice,”Brother Zheng, can I borrow your phone for a while?”
“Ah?” Zheng Ren was stunned.
“I haven’t played with my phone in a long time.” Shi Jian said gloomily.
“Where’s your phone?” Zheng Ren smiled and did not reject the child’s good intentions.”But I don’t have any games on my phone. I don’t think I can download it in time.”
“It’s fine, I’m just looking. ” Shi Jian said,”any small game, just a few minutes.”
“I remember that half a year ago, you said you wanted to play in a ranking match or something.” Zheng Ren asked in a low voice when he saw little stone holding the phone and his eyes shining with a crystal clear light.
“My mom’s phone is gone, so I gave mine to her.” Little Rock’s hands were thin and weak, but his hand speed was not slow. If not for his condition affecting his body, he would not have been slower than Su Yun.
“Oh? You’re not using QQ to chat anymore?”
“Yes, I know I can’t live for long. There’s no need to leave a deep impression on my classmates and friends. Otherwise, they’ll be very sad when I die. ” Shi Jian said in a hoarse voice,”it’s interesting to be alive. What a pity.”
“……”
Zheng Ren was speechless. He looked at the flashing light on the phone screen and the glow on little stone’s face. He felt a little emotional when he heard what he said.
“Brother, you don’t even have a password to your phone?”
“Yeah, it’s too troublesome to set the password.” Zheng Ren said.
“I can’t believe there’s someone as lazy as you.” Little Rock asked,”aren’t you afraid that others will look at your phone?”
“I rarely use my phone.” Zheng Ren thought about it. He was indeed different from many people now. Without using a power bank, the battery of a mobile phone could last for two to three days. Its biggest use was to chat with her, and other than that, it was to pass on videos.
“Really, only older people are like this, okay? I can just call you uncle.” Little stone was playing with the snake, and his happy smile was very sweet.”What era are we in now? you rarely use a mobile phone. Uncle … Brother, you’re going to be abandoned by the times if you continue like this. “
Tsk, this little fellow’s words were just like Su Yun ‘s, slightly sharp. How could he speak to adults like that?
Zheng Ren smiled as he watched little stone play with his phone. He didn’t say anything, but the more he looked, the more he felt that it was a pity. Her heart felt empty, as if something was missing.
“Little stone, why are you playing with uncle’s phone?” The woman came back and gently ‘reprimanded’ him.
“It’s fine. He helped me adjust the resolution of the screen. I don’t know how to do it. ” Zheng Ren said with a smile.
Shi Jian was stunned, and he looked at Zheng Ren slyly.
“Oh.” The woman did not expose this simple lie.”Dr. Zheng, we’re going home.”
“Wait a moment. Do you have little stone’s X-ray?”
The woman nodded and pulled out the tidying box under the bed.””This is his X-ray and past medical records. I’ve marked the time.”
Zheng Ren looked at the box that was filled to the brim and was even heavier than small stones. He was stunned.
“Doctor Zheng, if you’re interested, you can have them all.” Wen xiaonuan said,”it’s just nice that I’m bringing little stone back. This box of items is too heavy. I’ll have to come back a few times to retrieve them.”
Zheng Ren knew that she did not want to continue with the treatment, so there was no use in keeping these documents and past information. And bringing these things home would only make him think of her, and they were useless.
He didn’t say anything but nodded. He went out to find a small cart for garbage and carried the sorting box up.
After informing the nurses in the ward area that they would return the box, Zheng Ren came to little stone.
“Brother, I’ll return your phone to you.” After playing with the snake for a while, little stone felt much more energetic, as if he had been charged for a few minutes.
Zheng Ren took the phone and looked deeply at little stone.
While Wen xiaonuan was packing her things, Shi Jian said in a low voice,”Thank you for coming to see me. Goodbye.”
“Okay, goodbye.”
“This time, I really have to say goodbye.” Little Rock mumbled.
Zheng Ren’s heart clenched and he frowned.
But Shi Jian was right. Ten days, dozens of days, the White foal would fly by. This meeting was really the last time they would meet.
Would he? Zheng Ren looked at the unpacking boxes on the Gurney outside. His eyebrows were like daggers as he raised them.
He didn’t look back at Shi Jian, but raised his hand and left with the Gurney.
Because there was a Gurney, it was not very convenient to get into the elevator. They had to wait for a long time before the elevator finally returned to the Department of interventional services.
“Boss, did you go out to get some junk? It’s different from the past years. ” Su Yun asked casually when she saw the boxes.
“That child’s information.” Zheng Ren replied,”my family gave up on it, so I brought it back to take a look.”
“……”
This time, even Su Yun was speechless.
His family had given up on him, and he was a late-stage cancer patient half a year ago. Was there any point in bringing back a mountain of information?
He looked at Zheng Ren in confusion, his eyes full of questions.
“Boss Zheng, what child?”
“Half a year ago, I happened to meet a child with late cancer. Now, he’s beyond cure. I’m afraid he won’t live for more than a month.” Zheng Ren said calmly as he took out the documents. Just as Wen xiaonuan had said, the documents were arranged in chronological order with labels in the middle. It was rather easy to find information from a certain date.
Having been a doctor for many years, Zheng Ren had seen all kinds of family members. Basically, most of the people did not bring all the raw materials, and less than 10% of them could bring all the films.
He had never seen someone like Wen xiaonuan.
“Wow, the patient’s family members are so attentive.” Lin Yuan also saw the trick and praised.
“Gurney, send me to the third inpatient department, 18th floor, Oncology Department 3.” Zheng Ren threw the chores to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan was just about to come over and see what was going on when he was thrown out by boss Zheng to work.
With a bitter face, she helplessly pulled the Gurney out of the office.
