Chapter 14 Memories and Him
The unexpected encounter, of course she didn't recognize him.

It was he who recognized her at a glance and walked to her side holding a black umbrella, "An Ran, what a coincidence."

"You..." An Ran stared at the chiseled and handsome face of the young man in front of him seriously, but she had no impression whatsoever and had no idea who he was.

"I'm Shi Jian." The young man introduced him proactively, his voice gentle and low.

"You've changed a lot." An Ran had a pale, almost transparent face, without the slightest smile, and her voice was slightly hoarse, as cold as stirring a smoothie with a glass tube.

"It's natural to change when you lose some weight." The young man smiled, and his temper seemed to be as good as before, "You want to go out?"

He looked at the emergency room door behind the two of them, and then at the surrounding streets.

An Ran hadn't eaten for two days. After lying in the hospital for a long time, he felt like a corpse. He was obviously not dead, but he was no different from dead.

As dinner approached that day, she suddenly saw a circling bird flying high under the bright white sunlight outside the window, and she suddenly wanted to go out to see the sky.

So he avoided the nurse who was doing rounds and changed his clothes alone and slowly walked out of the ward.

At that time, her cancer was in the advanced stage and her health was very poor. She could only walk very slowly.

It took her much longer than the average person to walk from the ward to the hospital entrance.

When she reached the door of the hospital and stood in the sunlight, looking at the busy traffic in front of her, her vision suddenly went dark and she felt that she was still too delusional.

There was no way she could go out to eat at a restaurant alone.

She hesitated in place for a moment, and at that moment, she heard someone calling her.

They are old classmates whom I haven't seen for many years. We have had a brief encounter with each other. We are not familiar with each other, but we are not unimpressed either.

If it weren't for the current situation, An Ran felt that she would quickly find an excuse to say goodbye to him and never see him again.

However, she still directly told him her intention to leave.

Maybe she was too weak at the time and didn't have the energy to deal with it.

"Go out and have a meal."

"Are you alone?"

"Yes."

"I just want to go out for a casual meal." The young man raised his wrist and looked at the time, "I'll treat you."

An Ran was silent. She just wanted to eat and didn't want to be invited to dinner.

But the young man is obviously much tougher and more decisive than when he was a teenager. In her silence, she decided the place and restaurant where the two of them would eat, "Can you eat the simple meal in the cafe?"

"Anything is fine." An Ran responded.

The main reason is that she doesn't know what she wants to eat or what she can eat.

She just lay in the cold ward for a long time and wanted to go out and bask in the sun.

"Then you come with me?" The young man looked down at her with gentle eyes, "Can you leave? Do you want me to help you."

"Please help me over."

By this time, An Ran no longer had the confidence to hold on. She was afraid that if someone walked over alone, she would fall to the ground before she could get very far, and she would not be able to get up.

That would be more embarrassing than asking him to help her.

"Okay." The young man moved closer to her and raised his hand as if he didn't know how to treat her.

An Ran took the initiative to hold his arm.

Shi Jian happened to see the hospital sign hanging on her wrist, "Walk slowly. If you can't walk anymore, tell me. Let's take a rest before walking."

The cafe Shi Jian was talking about was very close to the gate of the cancer hospital, but the distance was only more than 200 meters, but the two of them walked and stopped seven or eight times.

When she sat down in the restaurant, An Ran almost sat on the sofa.

But she only stayed there for a while, and soon managed to sit up straight again.

The young man thoughtfully went to the seat next to him and took a pillow, and gently placed it behind her back.There was a sign between the two of them that said scan the QR code to order food. He scanned it with his mobile phone and stretched it out in front of her, "Look, is there anything you want to eat?"

An Ran stared at the picture above for a moment before her eyesight went dark and she couldn't stand it any longer. "You can see for yourself, I can eat anything."

Shi Jian was silent for a moment, then took back her phone and asked, "Are there any taboos?"

"Don't eat sweet, don't eat raw, don't eat tasteless, don't eat cold."

There are far fewer options.

Shi Jian quickly ordered the meal.

An Ran said when he put away his mobile phone, "I want to drink coffee."

Can cancer patients drink coffee?
Shi Jian didn't know. Shi Jian was in a dilemma, but Shi Jian still complied with An Ran's request. She scanned the code again to open the ordering interface and turned to the coffee column to show her, "Let's see what kind of drink you want to drink?"

"As long as it's not sweet."

Shi Jian ordered her an apple cinnamon latte.

In the end, she basically ate nothing that day except for this apple cinnamon latte.

She didn't eat much at that meal, and Shi Jian didn't eat much either.

The two sat facing each other and chatted for a while. Shi Jian was basically talking, and she absent-mindedly added a few words in the most concise words.

Including but not limited to "um", "right", "no", "ok"...

Most of the time, she was looking at the small garden outside the window behind him.

In the small garden behind him, the blue endless summer bloomed like a blue sea, and the fruits on the lemon trees were ripening.

After watching it for a long time, An Ran felt that her heart became calmer.

The midday sun shone through the clear glass window and fell on her thin, white face. Her meditative face seemed to others to have a fragile and fragile vitality, which was very beautiful.

Shi Jian felt distressed.

He gradually stopped talking.

The person opposite was quietly admiring flowers, and he was looking at her.

What An Ran saw when she opened her eyes was Shi Jian looking at her silent face and asking lightly, "Am I ugly now?"

She felt that she was as ugly as a ghost.

So she didn't look in the mirror very much in the hospital.

"No." The young man shook his head slowly, "It's still as beautiful as before."

"Thank you, I was comforted." The corners of An Ran's mouth curled up quickly, but then dropped again.

"I'm not trying to comfort you, it's true." The young man smiled warmly.

An Ran didn't answer his words anymore.

I don't believe it.

The two sat in silence for a while before she spoke out, "I've had enough sitting. I'm going back first. Thank you for the lunch."

"I'll see you off." Shi Jian stood up quickly.

On the way back, he used his steady and strong arms to help An Ran into the elevator of the hospital building.

This time, the two of them didn't pause much on the way, because An Ran was almost carried by him to the elevator door.

The time of separation.

Shi Jian stood at the elevator door of the inpatient building of the cancer hospital. When An Ran refused to send her upstairs, she said warmly, "An Ran, you are so brave and quiet today. I forgot that you are in pain."

At that time, her heart had suffered too much ups and downs and pain, and she was already despairing, but she still trembled when she heard the young man say these words. 1314
