Chapter 805 Leaving
Xu Hongdou wanted to say something, but when she saw Lin Hao and Chen Nanxing looking at each other, she backed off.

Lin Hao invited the two girls to dinner, and then the three of them parted ways.

After returning to the hospital, Chen Nanxing opened Lin Hao's painting and began to appreciate it carefully.

Looking at the lifelike figures in the painting, Chen Nanxing suddenly whispered to Xu Hongdou:
"Dou'er, I think I found something amazing!"

"What's wrong?" Xu Hongdou sat down curiously and looked at the painting.

Chen Nanxing stared at the painting and said as if he had figured something out:
"Look at Lin Hao's painting. We both look very lifelike, but I feel like your portrayal seems to be more detailed!"

"Almost! I feel~!" Xu Hongdou compared them carefully and discovered the problem. She couldn't say anything else.

Seeing Xu Hongdou in a trance, Chen Nanxing took her hand and said, "Dou'er, do you like Brother Lin?"

Xu Hongdou hesitated in her heart, but finally denied it, "No!"

"Really?" Chen Nanxing looked at Xu Hongdou jokingly, but he understood what Xu Hongdou was thinking, so he smiled and said:

"We are best friends. You can't lie to me. You just like him. At least you have a good impression of him, right?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongdou fell silent, feeling extremely conflicted. She definitely had some feelings for him, but she felt that Lin Hao was more interested in her best friend, and she couldn't possibly snatch her from Chen Nanxing!

"I think it's time for you to find a boyfriend!" Having said this, Chen Nanxing was silent for a moment, and then continued:

"Look at me, I had a crush on a new colleague and we had a pretty good relationship. He was good in every way, but unfortunately he was six years younger than me. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to grow up with him, so I didn't agree!"

"But now think about it, when it comes to dating, the sooner you can have a boyfriend, the more you can enjoy it. You don't know how much I regret it. If I had known earlier, I would have enjoyed the feeling of being in love first!"

Xu Hongdou was somewhat moved by what Chen Nanxing said, but she still shook her head and said:

"I admit that I have a crush on him, but he's obviously more interested in you! I can't~!"

Chen Nanxing interrupted Xu Hongdou and said:

"Dou'er, I know your concerns, but look at my current situation, can I stay with him forever?"

"I am destined not to be with him!" Chen Nanxing felt a little depressed when he said this, and then pointed at the painting and said:
"And I feel more and more that maybe Lin Hao is more interested in you, and has more sympathy and pity for me!"

"Nanxing~!" Xu Hongdou wanted to persuade Chen Nanxing, but didn't know how.

However, Chen Nanxing quickly adjusted himself, patted Xu Hongdou's hand and said:
"But I've also figured it out. Even if I can't be with him, it doesn't stop me from liking him!"

"So I want to confess to him, even if he rejects me, I am willing to do it!"

Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Nanxing in surprise. She didn't expect her best friend to be so bold. It was as if she had let go of the shackles in her heart. She acted very freely and at ease. She didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Hongdou, do you think this will work?" Chen Nanxing then fantasized:
"I'm going to date him first. I'm not trying to steal him from you. It's just that I can't be with him forever in my current state. When I'm gone one day, you can just take over!"

"What are you talking about!" Xu Hongdou said angrily, "Who will take over your business?"

"Good Red Bean, I'm serious!" However, Chen Nanxing became more and more excited as he spoke:
"Just because I have never tasted the sweetness of love, and for the sake of our sisterhood, please let me go!"

"I can also help you test this person's character. I'm here to help you get ahead and test the enemy's situation as a vanguard!"

Hearing this, Xu Hongdou said with a smile:

"I really can't do anything about you. You haven't even started dating yet, and you're already thinking about dating someone. It's not even certain whether the other person agrees or not!"

"It's like you're thinking about how to divide the pork before you even kill the pig!"

"Dou'er, please be okay!" Chen Nanxing shook Xu Hongdou's arm coquettishly.

Xu Hongdou said unhappily: "There's really nothing I can do about you!"

"You agreed, that's great~!"

······
The next day, Xu Hongdou took advantage of Chen Nanxing's examination to come to Lin Hao's painting exhibition.

Then he found Lin Hao and told him Chen Nanxing's idea. Finally, he begged Lin Hao to fulfill the last wish of Chen Nanxing, a terminal cancer patient, and have a sweet love with him!

Lin Hao looked at Xu Hongdou and asked softly with strong emotions in his voice but very restrained:

"Hongdou, are you really willing to just watch me fall in love with your best friend?"

Listening to Lin Hao's words, Xu Hongdou had mixed feelings. Just as Chen Nanxing guessed, she also felt at this moment that Lin Hao might really like her.

But for her best friend's last wish, Xu Hongdou could only say: "Nanxing's time is running out!"

"Okay, I agree to this!" Then Lin Hao added:
"Actually, no matter what the reason is, I'm happy to help, as long as you don't mind!"

So after Lin Hao finished his art exhibition, he came to the hospital with gifts. However, Chen Nanxing yelled at him fiercely, but when he saw Lin Hao, he couldn't speak.

Finally, with Xu Hongdou's encouragement, when Lin Hao came to the hospital to see her for the second time, she tentatively pursued Lin Hao, and Lin Hao gladly agreed.

In the next few days, as Chen Nanxing's new boyfriend, Lin Hao naturally went to the hospital often to take care of her.

Although Xu Hongdou took time out to go to the hospital every day, she was always busy with work and had to run between the hospital and the company, which made her very tired.

Lin Hao finds different ways to make Chen Nanxing happy every day, making all kinds of delicious food to feed her, and their relationship gradually improves.

On this day, while Xu Hongdou was at home, Chen Nanxing took Lin Hao to the hotel.

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Nanxing hugged Lin Hao's neck and refused to let go, just looking up at Lin Hao.

Looking at Chen Nanxing who was getting thinner and thinner, Lin Hao did not refuse. He lifted her chin and then kissed her hard.

Lin Hao knew that pancreatic cancer would be accompanied by severe pain, so Lin Hao injected her with life energy for a few days.

Let Chen Nanxing's body recover a little, at least she won't be in pain tonight, allowing her to experience the beauty of this night.

······
next day
Chen Nanxing lay on his back in Lin Hao's arms. When he opened his eyes, he looked full of energy.

When Chen Nanxing opened his eyes, Lin Hao naturally woke up as well. He then stroked Chen Nanxing's smooth back and said:

"You're awake, I'll get you breakfast!"

"Let's go down and eat together!" Chen Nanxing said happily: "I am so lucky to have you by my side during the last days of my life!"

"Stop thinking about it, let's go have breakfast!"

Lin Hao smiled, helped her put on her clothes, and then went downstairs with him to have breakfast.

Chen Nanxing looked at Lin Hao, who seemed a little hesitant when answering this question, and had a vague guess in his mind.

That is, Lin Hao actually likes Hongdou, but she doesn't dare to continue asking, for fear of getting the answer she expected.

At this moment, she was full of attachment and reluctance to Lin Hao, and just wanted to enjoy Lin Hao's favor in the last time.

Lin Hao accompanied Chen Nanxing for breakfast and then sent her back to the hospital.

When Xu Hongdou saw Chen Nanxing again in the afternoon, she was a little surprised at her physical condition.

······
More than three months later, Xu Hongdou was successfully promoted to executive director of the hotel.

But perhaps because she was too busy during this period, running back and forth between the hospital and the hotel, she was so tense when she suddenly received the good news that she didn't know whether it broke or relaxed, and she fainted in the office.

Upon learning that Xu Hongdou was hospitalized, Chen Nanxing, who was already becoming increasingly frail and unable to get out of bed, came to Xu Hongdou's bedside in a wheelchair.

Seeing the haggard Xu Hongdou, Chen Nanxing could no longer hold back her tears and burst into tears, apologizing non-stop:
"I'm sorry, Anko, I'm sorry~!"

Xu Hongdou reached out and touched Chen Nanxing's thin face, and comforted him in a weak voice:
"Nanxing, don't cry. You haven't done anything wrong to me. I'm just too tired. The doctor just said that I'm just overworked. I just need to rest for a while!"

"I'm sorry~!" Chen Nanxing cried even more sadly when he heard Xu Hongdou's voice.

At this time, Lin Hao stepped forward, held her hand and said:
"Don't cry, it's not good for your condition. Besides, this isn't a life-and-death separation. Hongdou is just overworked. Don't make her cry too!"

"Well, I won't cry, I won't cry anymore!" Chen Nanxing said while wiping her tears.

Just by looking at Lin Hao and Xu Hongdou, Chen Nanxing had already made a decision in his heart.

Xu Hongdou was indeed overworked, but she was also under too much pressure. Fortunately, she was young and felt much better after the infusion.

The hotel also gave her two days off so that she could have a good rest.

Xu Hongdou thought that the matter was over, but when she arrived at the hospital on the third day, she found that Chen Nanxing's bed was empty.

He then called Chen Nanxing, but the call couldn't go through, so he went to the nurses' station anxiously.

"Nurse, where is the patient in bed number three, Chen Nanxing?"

Seeing Xu Hongdou's anxious look, the head nurse said softly, "Bed number three has already been discharged this morning!"

"Discharged?" Xu Hongdou then asked quickly, "Who handled the discharge procedures for him?"

"It's her parents~!" said the head nurse.

Xu Hongdou felt relieved and quickly called Chen Nanxing's parents, but still no one answered.

Just when she was extremely anxious and was about to call Lin Hao, Chen Nanxing sent her several messages on WeChat.

Seeing that it was Chen Nanxing's WeChat, I quickly clicked to play, and then I heard Chen Nanxing's somewhat weak voice:
"Hongdou, I'm sorry, please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. After thinking about it for a few days, I decided to leave here!"

"You don't have to come looking for me, just let me leave quietly like this!"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be so selfish. I knew Lin Hao liked you and you liked him too, but I still got in between you two!"

"During this period, I really enjoyed Lin Hao's care for me. It made me experience a sweet love, but in fact, I have always felt a little uneasy in my heart."

"Because I am afraid of becoming a hindrance to you, I can only leave you without saying goodbye!"

"I think about it carefully. Rather than letting you watch me die sadly, it is better to leave beautiful memories in your hearts."

Seeing this, Xu Hongdou couldn't stop her tears from flowing down, and then she continued to listen to the rest of the voice.

"Oh, by the way, we agreed to go to the South of the Colorful Clouds to eat, drink, have fun, and see the beautiful scenery together. Now I'm afraid I can't go."

"I feel like there are still a lot of things I haven't had time to do. You're the only one who can eat and play for me!"

"You must eat well, sleep well, and live well. Most importantly, I have returned Lin Hao to you!"

"Lin Hao is a good person. He has taken good care of me during this period. He is a good man. He will definitely be very sad if I leave without saying goodbye. This is a good opportunity for you!"

"Hongdou, I'm actually really envious of you. Although he has been doing his best to take care of me during this period, I know that although he likes me, he feels more pity and sympathy for me. Although after these few months of getting along, he already has me in his heart."

"But I know that he has always liked you in his heart!" At this point, Chen Nanxing said with a smile in his tone:

"Don't just rely on your good looks and wait for others to chase you!"

"Maybe it's because Lin Hao is an artist. He's a bit passive. If you have a chance, you should be proactive and just jump on him. That's what I did!"

"Lin Hao is a bit naive in terms of emotions. He was sympathetic and compassionate to me at first, but I know he already has me in his heart, which is why I have to leave."

I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to let go of his feelings for me, which would only make things worse, so I tricked him into going to Caiyunzhizhinan.

"I already feel guilty for stealing your love. We are good sisters. If I still monopolize him, I would be a bad person. Now I return him to you. Go to the south of the colorful clouds to find him!"

At this point, Chen Nanxing was already in tears, and finally reminded: "Also, you must be happy!"

Xu Hongdou listened to the last part of the voice message in a daze and was speechless for a long time.

She heard the struggle in Chen Nanxing's heart and didn't know what to say for a moment. She could only return to the rented house silently, listening to Chen Nanxing's voice messages and recalling the past years.

When I think about how I have been busy with mediocrity for so many years, I don’t even know what I was busy with. I originally thought that I was earning money to buy a house and a car and live a better life.

But after what happened to Chen Nanxing, she suddenly realized that her life should not be like this...!

It was not until dawn that Xu Hongdou came out of her memories and made a decision in her heart.

Pick up the computer and start typing with determination~!

On the other side, Lin Hao arrived in the south of Caiyun and came to the outside of Yunmiao Village. Lin Hao took out his luggage from the space and then dialed a number!
