Chapter 2489 Illusion and Reality
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and another summer is coming.
Wang Yaxin has been in the hospital for about twenty days. During these twenty days, except for communicating with the scientific research team about funds, Fang Zhiqiang stayed here all the rest of the time.
Now he has figured it out. Since he has decided to start over, he has nothing to be afraid of. Let Bi Luochun and Chen Qing go to discuss financing matters. Their experience is even greater than his own.
Rich, and the base of the scientific research team was temporarily placed in Tianhu Apartment. For more than a month, it has been quiet and no suspicious incidents have occurred, but Fang Zhiqiang is still a little worried.
When things go too smoothly, it is often the time when people are most likely to take it lightly. It is also at this time that problems are most likely to go wrong. Fang Zhiqiang knows this truth very well, so even if nothing happens all the time, it can still happen.
Fang Zhiqiang will still remind Baldhead from time to time to be prepared at all times so that if something happens, he will not be at a loss.
Xu Chao's treatment plan is very special. Wang Yaxin does not have to take in a lot of nutrients, but she cannot eat any type of food.
According to Xu Chao's explanation, this can slow down her metabolism and also slow down the aging of cells. However, the disadvantage is that Wang Yaxin's current body is extremely weak and she is much thinner than before. The most important thing is that
, her skin has also changed from the smooth and flawless face to the current dull complexion, and her eyes are not as clear as before.
But just doing these things is far from solving her sequelae. These are nothing more than a delaying measure. As for the core treatment plan, Xu Chao did not disclose anything to the outside world. Even Fang Zhiqiang had no idea, although he asked several questions
times, but Xu Chao didn't say a word.
Maybe he feels that those things are medical secrets and cannot be known to others, or maybe he feels that his plan is immature. Now that he is saying it, on the one hand, he is worried that it will scare Fang Zhiqiang, and on the other hand, he may also
Doubt yourself.
As a doctor, the most important thing is to believe in the treatment plan you made at the beginning and to implement it consistently. Once you are no longer as confident as you were at the beginning, then problems are most likely to arise next.
Xu Chao, who has been a doctor for so many years, is naturally very clear about this aspect.
Due to the large amount of infusions required every day, the back of Wang Yaxin's originally smooth hand now looks full of needle holes. Just one look at it makes people feel heartache.
Compared with the situation on Wang Yaxin's side, Li Xiaoxiao's side is more optimistic.
After more than twenty days of hard work, Li Yonggui and his wife finally felt a little more relieved about Li Xiaoxiao's situation. Seeing that Li Xiaoxiao was in this state every day, they finally believed that their daughter could adjust well.
her own mental state.
In the past few days, there have been more smiles on their faces, and the family's living situation has been unprecedentedly harmonious, even more harmonious than before the divorce.
Wang Xia sometimes comes to join in the fun, and stays at Li Yonggui's house for several days under the guise of seeing how Li Xiaoxiao is doing.
In fact, it was because she knew that Li Xiaoxiao would leave soon and wanted to stay with her for a few more days after Li Xiaoxiao left.
However, neither of them mentioned this matter to Li Yonggui, because Li Xiaoxiao did not want the fact that he was leaving soon to remain buried in the hearts of their family. In that case, even if he stayed for a while,
time, they still won't be happy.
Finally, this morning, when the family was having dinner, Li Xiaoxiao finally proposed his "long-planned" plan.
"Mom and Dad, I want to tell you something today." When the meal was almost finished, Li Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke to Li Yonggui and Xiao's mother at the dining table.
Both of them were stunned, and Wang Xia on the side suddenly put down the chopsticks in her hands, because last night, she and Li Xiaoxiao chatted until midnight, and even when Li Xiaoxiao bought the ticket, Wang Xia could see clearly.
Li Yonggui and Xiao's mother both raised their heads and looked at Li Xiaoxiao with puzzled faces, because they both realized that Li Xiaoxiao's attitude at the moment was very serious. She was not like this at ordinary times, at least during this time, and suddenly she was not like this.
There must be something important about the change.
"What's wrong? What are you going to say? Is it so grand?" Xiao's mother asked with a frown.
"Mom and Dad, I have told you before that I want to go out for a walk, take a look, and broaden my horizons. I have been here for too long. What kind of world is outside? I
I almost forgot about it." Li Xiaoxiao sat on the chair seriously and looked at his parents and said seriously.
"You want to leave? Where to go?" Li Yonggui was suddenly stunned, dropped his chopsticks directly on the plate, and asked solemnly.
"I don't have a clear destination. I want to go to places I haven't been to before, see scenery I haven't seen before, and listen to stories I haven't heard before." Li Xiaoxiao thought for a moment.
After a moment, he still said seriously.
"Oops! What you said is so convoluted, isn't it just a poor trip!" Wang Xia watched helplessly as her uncle's eyes changed from confusion at the beginning, to shock just now, to confusion and panic now, she quickly spoke, wanting to change
There is a somewhat solemn atmosphere at this moment.
After hearing Wang Xia's words, Li Yonggui looked at Wang Xia again and repeated: "Qiongyou?"
"Yes, uncle, many young people nowadays will choose this way of traveling, and they will be able to come into contact with many things that we would never be able to come into contact with at ordinary times. Especially children like Xiaoxiao, who grew up with a golden key in their mouths, need to go
Experiencing the days of those poor people will allow them to see clearly many things about the world that they did not understand before, and it will also allow them to feel the simplicity and innocence that they could not have felt before."
Wang Xia explained patiently.
"So, I actually support Xiaoxiao's decision. I think that when she comes back, she will look like a changed person. I'm looking forward to it."
After listening to Wang Xia's words, Li Yonggui lowered his head slightly. He didn't quite understand the concept of "poor travel", but what Wang Xia said was a bit confusing.
Xiao's mother didn't care so much, and immediately said: "How can that be done? She is a girl, going out alone, and how can she live if she has no money? What should she do if she encounters bad people? How can she protect herself?"
"Aunt, Xiaoxiao is no longer a little girl. She is a thirty-one-year-old adult. She has the ability and responsibility to protect herself. As for the safety issues you mentioned, Xiaoxiao and I have already discussed it. If necessary,
All the equipment will be prepared in advance, so you can rest assured.”
Wang Xia continued to explain.
"So, you have already made your decision?"
Xiao's mother was still in disbelief. She couldn't believe that her daughter had such determination, and she couldn't believe that she could really take this step. Moreover, this time, she herself had already said that she wanted to go
It's a place I've never been to before.
"Xiaoxiao, I don't care what considerations you made this decision, but I hope you can change your mind." After thinking for a long time, Li Yonggui finally raised his head again and looked at Li Xiaoxiao seriously and said.
"Why?" Li Xiaoxiao asked without hesitation.
"Even though you are thirty-one years old, in our eyes, you are still a child. You want to experience a life you have never experienced before. This is your right. I can disagree, but I can't force you to
Give up, but I also have the obligation to remind you that this world is far from what you imagine
So beautiful, full of too much darkness and evil. When you are not exposed to them, maybe the world is as pure in your eyes as you see it. But once you are exposed to them, maybe with
You won't be able to get out of that shadow for the rest of your life."
Li Yonggui's words were heartfelt. He had always felt that he was very accurate in judging people. Now he finally understood that it was because of this that Li Xiaoxiao had been so optimistic and positive recently.
He had also figured it out. In fact, Li Xiaoxiao had already thought about leaving, but he just didn't find a suitable opportunity to tell them this.
And now, it seems that Li Xiaoxiao is ready.
"I know that you and Xiaoxia may have discussed it for a long time, but society is always changeable, and plans can never keep up with changes. Just when you thought you were fully prepared, something suddenly happened that caught you off guard.
If something happens, all your plans will be completely disrupted. When the time comes, what will you do to protect yourself?"
Li Yonggui continued to speak, and Li Xiaoxiao and Wang Xia also listened very carefully.
They have to admit that Li Yonggui will always be more mature than them in terms of life experience.
"Xiaoxiao, your mother and I never told you about the darkness of this world before, because we wanted you to maintain a childlike innocence and protect your clean and pure soul. Therefore, your serious world was just for us to
It’s just an illusory world weaved,
If you want to understand how dark this world is, I can spend three days and three nights teaching you science, but I know that you will not believe what I say because you have never seen those things.
, it sounds a bit appalling and unbelievable.”
Li Yonggui continued to speak, his tone becoming more and more serious.
Li Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought for a while. She knew that in recent years, her father had said these inner words to her more and more often, which also proved from the side that she had lived under their protection for too long.
In fact, I have already reached the age where I am learning to fly. Maybe it is because of my parents' doting, or maybe it is because of my immaturity. Even now, my parents still cannot completely trust me.
Li Xiaoxiao knew that this was his failure.
"Dad, I understand what you mean, but just like you said, those things need to be experienced and understood by myself. Listening to stories and experiencing them personally are two completely different concepts, so I think
I should still go out for a walk."
Li Xiaoxiao gave such an answer, leaving Li Yonggui speechless.
