Chapter 1192 Reluctant

"Yes, Mr. Li, come in quickly."

Reminded by his aunt's words, Uncle Zhang suddenly realized it, took a step forward and turned around to support the old man's other arm, "Come on, Uncle Li, walk slowly."

Zhang Bo and a few others made way for the old man and watched him walk past them.

When passing by Xiao Xiao, the old man stopped.

Although Uncle Zhang was puzzled, he changed direction according to the old man's intention.

In front is Xiao Xiao.

The young man who saved Uncle Li.

There was a look of realization on his face.

So he came to thank Xiao Xiao for saving his life?
What a stubborn old man.

Uncle Zhang shook his head but didn't say anything to interrupt.

Since we are here now, we should naturally help the old man fulfill his wish.

Perhaps the old man was also worried that if he didn't speak up now, he would never have the chance to thank his savior in person.

However, "Uncle Li, don't say it here."

"Let's go sit on the sofa inside and talk."

"Speak slowly."

"So you don't get tired of standing all the time."

"You don't have to be so anxious."

My aunt couldn't help but complain, "It won't be too late to come back when you're better."

"At least we can wait until tomorrow."

"Xiao Xiao didn't leave so quickly."

"Feel sorry."

The old man's voice was very soft.

But everyone's attention was on the old man.

They certainly didn't miss what the old man said.

Before Uncle Zhang could speak, the old man spoke again.

This time the voice was a little louder and the words were a little clearer.

"Can I talk to this kid alone?"

The old man didn't say who it was.

But everyone knew who the old man was talking about.

Uncle Zhang was stunned for a moment.

"Let's talk alone?"

He wondered if he had heard it wrong.
because
He didn't really understand. He just wanted to say thank you, so why did they have to talk alone?

However, even though he didn't understand, he had no reason to refuse.

"it is good."

"Uncle Li, please come to this room and talk."

Although my aunt was confused, she shared the same idea as Uncle Zhang.

She had no reason to refuse.

Moreover, she saw the stubbornness in the old man's eyes.

Although this made her even more confused.

She inexplicably felt that Uncle Li's persistence seemed to be more than just a way of saying thank you?

But, if it wasn't for thanking you
What else could it be for?

This was Xiao Xiao's second time here, and he met Uncle Li for the first time yesterday when they went out to sea.

These two people are strangers.
What else would an old man miss so much?
He came to meet us despite being so sick.

I also want to talk to Xiao Xiao.

The aunt led the way for the old man.

She brought the old man to Zhang He's room.

Because Zhang He lives on campus, he rarely sleeps in his own room.

The room felt a bit deserted and cold.

The door of the room is too small to accommodate three people side by side.

Uncle Zhang signaled the woman to let go, and he could help Uncle Li into the house by himself.

He helped the old man sit down slowly on the bed.

"Then Uncle Li, you talk to Xiao Xiao."

Uncle Zhang released his grip on the old man's arm and said, "We'll leave first."

Hearing this, Zhang Bo and others turned around and walked out of the room.

The crowded room suddenly seemed a little empty.

"Old Li, take your time to tell me what you want to say next."

"do not get excited."

The woman admonished the old man.

"It's fine."

The aunt walked up to the woman and said, "If there is any noise in the house later, we can hear it from outside."

"The soundproofing in this room isn't that good."

"don’t worry."

My aunt gave me a soothing smile.

The woman's pale face subconsciously returned a grateful smile. "Yeah."

The woman responded in a low voice.

"We're all going out first."

Uncle Zhang looked at Xiao Xiao, "Then Xiao Xiao, you should pay more attention."

"Be careful not to make Mr. Li too excited."

"His body couldn't take it."

"Ok, I know."

Xiao Xiao nodded and smiled.

Uncle Zhang, who left last, closed the door.

There was the sound of a door closing in the house.

The old man stared at Xiao Xiao.

Although this is what he looked like when the old man saw him just now.

However, the fact that there were only the two of them left at this time obviously made the old man more relaxed.

Xiao Xiao felt that the old man's glare was becoming more and more powerful.

He didn't speak.

He was waiting for the old man to speak.

After all, it was the old man who came to see him.

The one who said he wanted to chat was also an old man.

The old man blinked.

He reached out his hand and felt water stains at the corners of his eyes with his fingertips.

This kid, he couldn't help but glare at Xiao Xiao again, his eyes full of anger.

His eyes were wide open with tears, but the other party remained silent.

Play stare-eye with him.

I don't know how to be considerate of the elderly.

"you-"

The old man said hoarsely, "Why don't you speak?"

"I'm waiting for you to speak."

Xiao Xiao sat on the chair in front of the desk, his expression calm, with an almost invisible curve at the corner of his mouth.

elder:.
"Cough cough~"

The old man lowered his head and coughed a few times.

"I'll get you a glass of water."

Xiao Xiao stood up, but was stopped by the old man.

The old man stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Xiao, "Sit down."

"I am fine."

Seeing that Xiao Xiao had no intention of compromising, the old man had no intention of backing down, "I don't want to waste time."

"Listen to me first."

Xiao Xiao looked at the old man for a while, and the old man's hand was still stubbornly blocking him.

He sat back down.

The old man smiled.

"young people."

Although Uncle Zhang introduced Xiao Xiao to the old man at that time.

However, he had just woken up and his mind was still in a mess. He was also quite shocked to see the young man who appeared in front of him on the seabed again.

How could I listen to Uncle Zhang’s introduction?
"Although you gave me the answer when we were in the ward."

"but-"

The old man took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. His rough voice became clearer. “I still feel a little unwilling.”

"Are you also worried that you might have misunderstood me?"

"The more I think about it, the less I can stay in the ward peacefully."

"Tossing and turning."

“I can’t rest well at all.”

"Or, accept your fate and wait quietly for death."

The old man spoke slowly, word by word, as if analyzing his own heart, "As soon as I found out I could speak, I couldn't wait to come to you."

"I want to ask you in person."

"I also want to hear the answer from your own mouth."

"young people."

The old man's wrinkled face trembled slightly. "Really? Is the divine tortoise really of no help to my illness?"

"Even if it's just a few days, it's good."

This time, lying on the hospital bed, he had never had such a strong premonition.

He will probably close his eyes forever on this hospital bed.

Thinking of this, a fear stronger than ever before gripped his mind.

He was scared.

His whole body was shaking.
