Chapter 67 – Ward

Chi Tang went oversleeping again, and You Yu felt she was not awake at all, confused and unconscious, without saying a word. 

Teacher Ke went to learn more about what happened to Chi Tang’s family, and You Yu also learned from Teacher Ke. Chi Tang’s father killed his lover and a newly born child.

“Chi Tang probably broke this incident when she returned from school and was controlled by her dad. Fortunately, her dad didn’t think about killing her at first, but later he was discovered by neighbors when he wanted to do it. It’s so thrilling… This child was embarrassing for her. I hope she can adjust her mentality.”

You Yu sat on the empty sickbed opposite Chi Tang and had not yet fallen asleep. The night was already late, but the night in the hospital was not quiet, and there were always footsteps and voices outside the door.

A lamp at the foot of the bed casts a dim light, and the room was cold.She asked Teacher Ke to take care of Chi Tang here, so she and Chi Tang were the only people here.

You Yu was a little sleepy after listening to Teacher Ke and the police officer during the day. Chi Tang was still sleeping and was silent. Her black hair was scattered on the pillow, her face was bloodless, and her bruised face was wrapped in gauze.

What happened to Chi Tang? I heard she stayed with her father and the two corpses for two days. How scared would she be during this time? Just thinking about it made You Yu shudder.

Most people have only heard about it from various news reports. No one thought they would be born next to them, but this kind of accident was true. It was born in front of Chi Tang.

Although it was a holiday, Wei Xingxing and the others also heard the news and ran to the hospital to visit. Unfortunately, Chi Tang had little time to wake up. She closed her eyes most of the time, and there were too many people to talk to around her. She would behave. It’s very uncomfortable.

Wei Xingxing and the others were not close. They both came and left. After that, they contacted You Yu on their mobile phones and asked her about Chi Tang’s situation. Even Zhang Meng and her mother, Aunt Ning, came here. I also brought a thermos and made some porridge for them.

Chi Tang’s condition improved after a day or two, and she had more time to wake up. She only called her name when she first saw You Yu. Later, the doctor and Teacher Ke asked her occasionally. He also answered briefly, but did not speak or ask questions. Except for looking a little quieter than before, she didn’t seem to have any major psychological problems.

“It would be too uncomfortable, so I don’t want to talk. Isn’t it a concussion? I will feel dizzy and nauseous. “

Seeing Zhang Meng’s reply on the phone, You Yu still couldn’t rest assured. She always felt that Chi Tang was uncomfortable now, and she didn’t know how to make her feel better.

“It’s here?” A woman stepping on high heels suddenly looked out the door. She saw Chi Tang on the sickbed. Chi Tang’s mom walked in, and the quiet room was suddenly filled with the sound of her high heels stepping on the ground.

The woman was exquisite and dressed nicely. When she came, she stood by the hospital bed and said to Chi Tang: “Mom is going on vacation these days, and the phone is turned off, and I have received no news, so I just came now. Are you okay? “

Did it turn out to be Chi Tang’s mother? Chi Tang rarely talked about family matters and never mentioned her mother. You Yu met Chi Tang’s father once, and she didn’t like that person. Chi Tang’s mother didn’t know what it was like.

She stood up and took a cup to pour water into. Chi Tang’s mother complained that it was too scary. “I was shocked when I heard that the man, Chi Zhang, is sick. I’ve long suspected he’ll want to do it someday…

Ms. Tang Yue came here in the morning, and it was almost noon. The daughter was injured and hospitalized. She should have stayed and taken care of herself, but she didn’t mean it. She watched Chi Tang for a while, talked about Chi Tang’s father for a while, and said, “Mom is very busy and can’t take care of you. I’ll get you a caregiver to help. “

“Whatever you want.” Since she came in and started talking, Chi Tang has only said these three words to her.

Next, the mother and daughter seemed to have nothing to say. Tang Yue turned around and left when she was not feeling well. The caregiver she called hadn’t arrived yet, so she found a place to sit down. You Yu put a glass of water next to her, and only then did she notice You Yu. A little strange, “You are?”

You Yu: “Chi Tang’s classmate.”

Tang Yue: “Oh, come to see her, sit down and talk to Chi Tang.” After she finished speaking, she looked down at her phone.

Chi Tang seemed to be accustomed to such a mother and didn’t even look at her. You Yu sat back where she was. She had rarely spoken to Chi Tang in the past two days, and Chi Tang was reluctant to speak.

At noon, I was planning to go to the hospital cafeteria to get Chi Tang some porridge. Tang Yue waved her hand enthusiastically. “I will order some and let someone deliver it.”

She was Chi Tang’s mother. Taking care of Chi Tang here was fairer than her. You Yu silently put the lunch box back, waiting for Tang Yue to order food. The meals arrived soon. She was a generous person who liked to enjoy life. 

The meals ordered were meat and vegetables, and a large packaged food box, opened in the room, was full of the fragrance of the meal.

“If you are sick, eat more nutrition. This soup can be drunk…” Before Tang Yue finished speaking, Chi Tang, who had been silent, suddenly struggled from the bed and sat up, supporting the armrest of the bed, vomiting.

When the patient vomited, her appearance was not so good. Tang Yue frowned almost subconsciously, and put down the food in her hand with a little disgust, feeling that she had no appetite. You Yu reacted a little faster and grabbed the trash can and water to rinse her mouth.

In the two days since she took care of Chi Tang, she had never seen such a strong reaction from Chi Tang. She was lying on the side of the bed, looking like she couldn’t vomit anything, but she kept vomiting so much that she looked very embarrassed. Seeing her as if she was about to fall out of bed, You Yu hurriedly hugged her and told her to lean most of her body on her body, lest she force herself to fall out of bed.

Tang Yue still stood on the spot, “What’s wrong? I suddenly vomit like this and I feel sick and call a doctor. “

You Yu looked up at her hurriedly, “I shouldn’t be able to bear this meat, Auntie. Please take it out.” For the past two days, she has given Chi Tang some porridge and clear soup just because she was afraid that she would suffer. Not greasy, she reacted even more than she thought.

The pieces of meat in the sauce on the table had just been taken apart, and the pieces of meat were wrapped in a blood-like thick soup.

Tang Yue packed up casually and took out the bag. You Yu felt that Chi Tang did not vomit anymore, so she took a towel to wipe her face and mouth. But soon she realized that something was wrong. Chi Tang was lying next to the bed, leaning against it, her whole body trembling.

At first, it was a small whimper, and then the voice gradually increased, as if it could no longer be suppressed. It broke out suddenly, not knowing which point was hit, and Chi Tang suddenly burst into tears.

She didn’t know why she was crying. It might be because she was afraid of the previous encounter; it might be because of the shadow her dad brought to her; it might be because of the mother who was far from her; or it might be because she was uncomfortable. However, all this was too sad.

You Yu, sat at the bedside holding Chi Tang. The girl’s slender body trembled with pain. She felt sore in her eyes and almost cried with her. She knew Chi Tang was too uncomfortable, and she didn’t know how to vent.

Chi Tang was very proud of how hard it was to see her cry. But now, she was holding her clothes tightly, emotional, crying and pinching her hand fiercely. You Yu grabbed her hand, hid her in her arms, and kept stroking her back with the other hand.

“Okay, okay… it’s okay, okay.”

After the chaos, Tang Yue stood at the door and said to leave first. People left soon, but the caregiver she was looking for, a middle-aged woman, was staying there. But in fact, Chi Tang had little to do with it. She occasionally wiped her face, served rice and congee, and had spare time. The nurses were happy to be lazy here, only occasionally sweeping the floor, and no one else was seen at other times.

After Chi Tang cried once, she looked better and spoke a bit more. 

She said to You Yu, “You go back.”

You Yu did not agree. She asked her: “Where shall I go back?”

Chi Tang was silent. She moved her lips, and her eyes suddenly turned red again. “You are here to waste time.”

You Yu: “You are not well. I will stay here to take care of you.”

If she was uncomfortable, Chi Tang would not say that she was here with a caregiver she was not familiar with. She would rather endure it by herself than have You Yu worry. She took care of the sick, and when she was a child, she took care of her sick mother. The patients were very painful, and the psychological pain may be more than the physical pain.

Chi Tang didn’t let her go again but fired the non-working caregiver. Her mother didn’t care about it, anyway. She came to see her once, even if she fulfilled her obligations.

Mostly in the ward, there were still the two of them.

“Do you want to listen to songs?” You Yu asked her actively.

Chi Tang:”… I feel dizzy.”

Whether it was intense or soothing music, listening with headphones or playing it outside, she felt dizzy when listening, which was a sequel to a concussion. She even lost sleep after the effect of the medicine.

That sudden cry seemed to restore her perception, but it was accompanied by a variety of emotions. There were too many things on her mind. As long as she lay down, she would be a nightmare, like a quagmire.

She woke up from a short dream. In the dream, she was not killed by her dad; she killed her dad with a knife. The dead person came back and followed her wherever she went.

You Yu woke up as soon as she woke up. She felt very light here and would wake up if she felt a little movement. Seeing Chi Tang sitting up, covering her face, and making a small inhalation sound, she went to kneel on the bed and hugged Chi Tang as before.

“Have a nightmare?”

Chi Tang did not answer.

She raised her head after a while and lay back down again. You Yu sat next to her without leaving.

Chi Tang looked at the white wall opposite and said, “He will be shot.”

She was talking about her dad.

“I hate him. Since I was in junior high school, I have wished he would die.”

She thought at the time that if her father didn’t die, she would just die. It was strange that at thirteen or fourteen, all her classmates around him were happy and busy. Only she has such thoughts in her mind.

“… I’m so afraid of him.”

In the distant memory, when she was a little one, she used to sit in her father’s arms. She raised her head and couldn’t see the table. 

She stretched out two hands to the edge of the table and sat in front of her father, occupying a small part of her chair. Her dad was playing cards; her hands were back and forth on the table, and she looked up. There was a cigarette in the man’s mouth, and the ashes fell on her head accidentally, and the man easily wiped off the soot with his fingers.

more terrible memories.

You’stare’ again? You stared at Laozi again? This would be followed by a slap across the face.

It was countless slaps and fists, and finally a knife.

“He came to me that day. I was scared…”

You Yu raised her hand and covered her eyes with warm palms. She lay down slowly, leaning against Chi Tang.

She hoped that Chi Tang would never cry like this in her lifetime.
