Chapter 14 Hey, beauty, remember me
After stealing half a day’s leisure, Tian Mi took a break today and sent away two treasures in the morning. She cleaned up the house inside and outside. She cooked boiled fish at home and bought frozen beer to reward herself.
Normally, because there were two treasures, they never dared to put a little chili pepper in their meals. To Tian Mi, who was crazy about spicy food, it was simply torture. Only when she was alone at home could she steal some chili pepper. However, this kind of good day could be counted on one’s fingers.
The meal was interrupted by a phone call.
“Hey, senior sister, are you off work?”
It was Lin Zhitao, so Tian Mi didn’t think much about picking it up.
No one answered. The other end of the phone was quiet.
“Senior sister?” Tian Mi had an ominous premonition, “Senior sister, speak.”
A low sob came from across the phone. It was intermittent and made Tian Mi’s heart tremble when she heard it.
“Little girl, my operation failed.”
Lin Zhitao’s voice was filled with tears, no longer as vigorous as before.
“Senior sister, wait for me. I’ll be right there.”
Tian Mi didn’t have time to change her clothes and ran out of the house wearing a home uniform and a down jacket.
The hospital where Lin Zhitao worked was the largest general hospital in M City. As a well-known urology surgeon, Lin Zhitao couldn’t catch her breath from the weekly surgery. However, this was her childhood goal. She was willing to die like a bird feeding on its prey.
During the morning’s surgery, Lin Zhitao, who was already exhausted, sat on a stone chair in the front garden of the hospital. She lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake.
Tian Mi sat quietly by the side and gently embraced Lin Zhitao. She patted Lin Zhitao’s back like she was coaxing Tian Tian.
This senior sister of hers was usually like a female man. She was careless, as if she didn’t care about anything, but her heart was soft like a ball of cotton.
Every time the operation failed, he would inevitably shed tears, but when he woke up, he would be able to revive with blood.
Tian Mi always felt that such a senior sister should have a strong arm that allowed her to rely on, understand the disguise of her appearance, and the fragility of her heart that needed to be cared for.
“I want to eat candy.” Lin Zhitao imitated Tian Tian’s tone and acted coquettishly towards Tian Mi.
“Are you alright?” Looking at Lin Zhitao’s rosy face, Tian Mi could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
“Throw my two little ancestors to my mother tonight. You have to accompany me out for a drink!”
Looking at Lin Zhitao’s cat face, Tian Mi really couldn’t bear to refuse. Moreover, she had been troubled a lot lately and needed a little release.
February 30
It had been four years since he had come, but he hadn’t expected that he was still here.
This bar started in a quiet alley on the way to the academy. When Tian Mi was still in school, the shop was not big, and most of the students came from the surroundings. At that time, it was still clear, and the party was drinking, and the lights were pretty gorgeous.
Now that he had come back, his appearance had changed a long time ago. The surrounding shops were slowly being eaten away, and the bar became bigger and bigger. The lights were dim, and the men and women on the dance floor were pestering each other endlessly.
Tian Mi and Lin Zhitao sat at the bar beside the dance floor. The two of them ordered two cocktails, one Persian cat and one blackjack
Strangely enough, many things had changed. They were all different, but the wine that he loved to drink back then was still there.
Didn’t things change? There was no need to leave hatred in the wine.
Tian Mi smiled self-deprecatingly. Mediocre people always disturbed themselves. However, after coming out for a drink, she sighed with emotion. After so many years of living, could it be that her sentimental heart could not be smoothed away?
“Hey, beauty, do you still remember me?”
