Chapter 1152 My name is Li Xiangnan! I can protect you!
Xu Qiluo was so shocked that he lost consciousness and just kept rubbing his eyes whose pupils were trembling.
She couldn't believe that Ge Dongxu, whom she had been trying to persuade for a whole day, was persuaded to come out by Li Xiangnan's sudden and decisive persuasion.
But then, she quickly understood.
Ge Dongxu, he is also a child just like himself.
Having lost his father, if God gives him another chance, will he watch his biological mother being taken away by the disease again?
If she really did what she suggested to Li Xiangnan, she would use half a month or a month to reshape Ge Dongxu's mentality and build up his mental strength...
Can Mr. Gong, who only has two months left to live, wait long enough?
Thinking of this, Xu Qiluo couldn't help but admire Li Xiangnan's bold and courageous action!
If it were an ordinary person, he would never dare to take such a risk and tell the truth to Teacher Gong’s son!
It was Li Xiangnan, and only Li Xiangnan dared to do this!
"let me help you!"
Before Xu Qiluo could feel more emotion, he saw Ge Dongxu had half come out of the bed and Li Xiangnan had already pulled half of his body out with his hands on his arms, so he hurried over to help.
An extremely sour and foul odor slowly drifted out from the bed along with Ge Dongxu's body. The condensed smell even irritated Li Xiangnan's eyes.
He held his breath and tried to calm himself for three seconds, then reached out to stop Xu Qiluo and shouted, "Fatty, come in and help!"
"Master!" Xu Qiluo knew that he was taking care of himself, and his heart suddenly felt warm.
Especially when she saw that Li Xiangnan didn't care about the dirt and stench on Ge Dongxu and held the child tightly in his arms, she was so moved that she wanted to cry.
Bang!
There was a loud sound of the door being pushed open.
Wang Defa strode into the inner room and was shocked to see Ge Dongxu being pulled out of the bed by Li Xiangnan. He was so frightened that his hair stood on end. He hurried over to support the child who had not come out from under the bed for ten years.
"Dongxu is out?! Xiao Li! How...how did you do it?"
Bang, bang, bang...
Before Li Xiangnan could answer, he heard the sound of tables, chairs and benches being knocked over outside the house, and then Gong Xinmei appeared at the door, holding on to it tightly.
At that moment, the sunlight seemed to penetrate the thick clouds and shine directly onto her wrinkled face.
Her hands were tightly gripping the badly worn wooden door, her knuckles turning white, but her body was too stiff to move, for fear of disturbing the dream she had been waiting for ten years.
Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her chest was filled with indescribable emotions, like a flood about to burst its dam, surging in her eyes.
A strand of gray hair fell from the end of Gong Xinmei's hair, followed by a trembling hand, whose fingertips touched the long-lost sunshine.
She held her breath and watched the hand slowly exert force to support a hunched figure, which gradually emerged from the shadows.
It was his face, the face she had imagined countless times in her dreams, and now it appeared before her eyes.
Ge Dongxu was disheveled, with hair hanging down to his chest. His beard completely covered his chin. His sunken eye sockets and the pair of eyes that were once bright but now a little cloudy were all telling her: this was real, her son was back.
The vigorous young man ten years ago has now become a 19-year-old young man.
The years have already left traces of his growth.
My son’s face has become unfamiliar, but his outline is so familiar!
It was as if her ex-husband had suddenly come back, carrying her son's body and falling from heaven to earth, landing on Ge Dongxu.
Tears burst out at this moment, Gong Xinmei staggered forward with her arms open, as if she wanted to embrace the warmth of the whole world.
Her crying and laughter intertwined together, turning into the most moving melody.
She stroked his hair, his cheek, and his hands, as if she wanted to compensate him for the past ten years of longing all at once.
"Son...son! Mom is so sorry! Mom misses you so much!"
"mom……"
Her son's hoarse, almost inaudible sobs instantly awakened all her memories. She cried even harder, but with the happiest smile on her lips.
At this moment, all the waiting, all the pain, all the despair turned into dust and dissipated with the wind.
All that was left was the sunlight in the room and their tightly embraced figures, witnessing this reunion that was ten years late.
"Dongxu!"
Gong Xinmei stroked her son's almost invisible face, grabbed his almost powerless hand, placed it in Li Xiangnan's hand, and said earnestly and anxiously:
"You follow Doctor Li, Mom will accompany you and treat you, okay? Mom will cure you!"
The room fell silent again, and Ge Dongxu couldn't say another word.
No matter how he opened his mouth, no word other than "Mom" could come out of his throat.
His throat muscles had long since atrophied from not speaking for more than a decade.
The fact that he had been curled up in the small space under the bed for so long meant that at this moment, even if he was standing, he had to be supported by Li Xiangnan and Wang Defa on his left and right.
He was able to stand up, but it was very difficult and he could hardly move.
"Aunt Gong, let's go! Let's go to the hospital. Dongxu's ward is ready! Let's go now!" Li Xiangnan immediately instructed: "Aunt, bring your spare clothes and toiletries! Let's go!"
"Hey, okay, okay, let's go, let's go! Dongxu, let's go!"
Gong Xinmei was so excited that she could no longer control her emotions. She went to collect the towels, but before she had finished putting them away, she went to look for a toothbrush, but before she put the toothbrush into the net bag, she was busy looking for her son's clothes, and then for food coupons. She was completely panicked.
"Teacher Gong, don't worry, I'm here, I'll help you!" Xu Qiluo couldn't bear to see her like this, so he hurried to help.
Li Xiangnan and Wang Defa had already carried Ge Dongxu to the door, but when they looked at the bicycles, they soon became troubled.
How to bring Ge Dongxu back?
This is not a car, you can just sit in it!
The back seat of the bicycle is definitely for people who practice what they preach!
No matter whose car Ge Dongxu rides in, he won't be able to hold on to the seat and will definitely fall off from the back!
"Fatty, find a rope and tie him to me! Hurry!" Li Xiangnan helped Ge Dongxu sit in the back seat of the car, holding him and shouting.
A few minutes later, Li Xiangnan put his feet on the pedals, looked at Wang Defa, Xu Qiluo, and Gong Xinmei who was waiting on the bicycle, waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Go straight to the hospital!"
Squeak!
The sound of chains suddenly rang out.
Four cars rode out of the yard one after another.
Li Xiangnan sighed silently in his heart.
At this moment, when Ge Dongxu was carried out of the yard, the light from the outside world suddenly pierced into his pupils like countless silver needles.
He curled up on the back seat of the bicycle, his arms tightly grasping the thin iron of the seat like an iron hoop, as if it was the only piece of driftwood in the storm.
The sunlight danced among the leaves, casting mottled shadows. Every swaying spot of light made his heart beat like a drum and his throat tighten.
Ge Dongxu's vision began to blur, and the noise from the outside world flooded into his ears like a tide - car horns, birds chirping, and crowd noise. These ordinary sounds now turned into sharp blades, cutting his nerves.
His body felt like it was struck by an electric current. A chill rose from the soles of his feet, running along his spine to the back of his head, and his muscles began to spasm uncontrollably.
The trembling started from the fingertips and quickly spread to the whole body, causing Li Xiangnan's bicycle to shake as well.
The wheels trembled and deviated from their direction, running over the pebbles on the road, making a rattling sound, which was like the embodiment of the fear in the boy's heart.
He closed his eyes tightly, but the stimulation from the outside world became stronger and stronger, as if even the air was mocking his cowardice.
Li Xiangnan could feel the trembling in the back seat. It was not just a person's body trembling, but more like a soul trapped in a cage struggling desperately.
He knew that the world under the bed that Ge Dongxu had woven for himself was collapsing, and the fears that were separated by high walls were now swallowing him up like a flood.
"Dongxu, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here! My name is Li Xiangnan! I can protect you!"
The bicycle was shaking and moving forward with difficulty, and Ge Dongxu raised his head.
His world shrank into a piece of cloth on Li Xiangnan's back. Only there could he feel a sense of security.
