Wang Tian snuggled gently in Lei Chen’s embrace. Listening to his heartbeat, her heart inexplicably calmed down.
“Perhaps, on the bright side, they have already gone home. The illness was treated in their small clinic. It probably wouldn’t cost that much at one time. They could take it slow. There was still a long way to go, so they wouldn’t have to spend so much at once. People from the countryside are all like this.” Wang Tian comforted him.
She was also a country bumpkin herself, so she understood the feeling of being unable to do what she wanted. She had also experienced the same despair.
Lei Chen pulled her into his embrace, “This is the best plan.” He was silently touched. With Wang Tian, at least he would not fall into endless self-blame and negative emotions like a vortex in the future.
“It’s also the most likely plan. Don’t worry, don’t think too much.” Wang Tian wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. She joked with him, “Don’t be nervous. You’ll puke all over me. I really like this dress.”
Lei Chen pretended to vomit, scaring Wang Tian so much that she lifted her skirt and hid to the side.
Lei Chen stared at her panic-stricken expression and could not help but laugh out loud. He lifted Wang Tian up and pressed her against his chest. Then, he planted a kiss on her forehead, “I told you I won’t throw up.”
He had a check-up a few weeks ago. His severe anxiety disorder had been reduced to mild. Although he still needed medication, it basically did not affect his life.
“Why are you sick? Is it because of that boy?” Wang Tian lay on his chest and looked at him eagerly.
Lei Chen felt that she looked just like a little girl and couldn’t help but find her adorable. He reached out and pinched her little face, “Yes, but not exactly.”
His anxiety came from his father. He had a strict upbringing since he was young. His father drank heavily all year round and had affairs outside. Only he and his strict mother lived at home.
Ever since he could remember, his mother had always said that he had to be a serious person, outstanding in all aspects, and better than ordinary people. Only then would his heartless father come back to see him.
The young him did not know why his father would abandon him. He thought this was all his responsibility, so he took everything on himself.
He studied diligently and got into the best school. He was always recognized as a good student in his class. Until he went to the best medical university in the country, he never thought that his father would abandon him.
In the end, one year, his father returned.
He had brought a woman with him, and he was dressed up in a travel-worn manner. That woman was young and beautiful, and she was gorgeously dressed.
His father gave him a fake smile.
His mother held her forehead and told Lei Chen the truth, “He wants you to treat this woman’s gynecology.”
His father said, “Doctor, can you help my baby? I’ll give her any amount of money. Help her on account that I’m your father.”
The woman, on the other hand, had her nose in the air. She lit a cigarette and looked around Lei Chen’s house indifferently, “Him? This place is too shabby.
It’s not even a hospital.”
“Baby, he’s a doctor from Jiang City First Hospital!” His father had a bright smile on his face as he looked at Lei Chen in a fawning manner, “Why don’t you check her in the bedroom while I wait outside?”
Lei Chen could not accept the father he had always wanted to see was actually such a person. He was greatly disappointed, and his eyes were as red as a bull. The ringing in his ears stung his nerves, and he felt like he was about to cry.
Was there any fatherly love in this man?
He raised his head to look for his father’s gaze, but his father’s silly smile only stopped on the woman who was surrounded by smoke.
“I don’t treat gynecology. I’m an internist.” He was almost hysterical.
Her father was calm, “Isn’t it all the same?”
Only then did he realize that he had been deceived.
He locked himself in the study for more than a month. When he came out, he was already dispirited and looked completely different.
Later, he felt dizzy at work and had no choice but to resign.
Resigning was the last “gift” his father gave him.
His so-called faith and hard work for so many years had been easily burned by him..
