Qi Bai's mother's name is Bai Sang. After Bai Sang and Qi Ruishan divorced, they left Xiacheng and cut off contact with the Qi family, including Qi Bai.
In the marriage between Bai Sang and Qi Ruishan, Qi Ruishan was at fault. Whether it was the law or the will of Qi Bai, who was just in junior high school at the time, he wanted to live with his mother.
But Bai Sang gave up custody without hesitation. When Qi Bai was in school, he took the property that was distributed after the divorce and left without hesitation.
Since then, there has been no news for many years.
Qi Bai didn't expect to hear the news of Bai Sang from Chen Shaojiao's mouth.
Still the same news.
After being stunned for a long time, Qi Bai found his voice:
"Breast Cancer?"
Chen Shaojiao 'um', his voice lost the lightness of his usual hippie smile, and it was a little low:
"Late... It was found out last month. Aunt Bai didn't let me tell you, saying that I didn't want to disturb your current life, but..."
He felt that Qi Bai had the right to know.
When it comes to the end, Chen Shaojiao lost his voice. He has never seen Aunt Bai in such a big age, but when people face life, old age, sickness and death, they can't help but feel sad.
What's more, this is the mother of his best friend.
With such a big disease as cancer, his mother knew that she would put down the grudges of the older generation and come to the hospital to visit, so Chen Shaojiao naturally had to come and see.
Bai Sang is almost 50 years old. After the cancer was diagnosed, the situation was not very optimistic. The first examination was an advanced stage, and the spread of cancer cells could no longer be suppressed. The doctor said that the ideal state is to last for another half a year.
If the situation is not good, a week, half a month, a month...
No one can tell.
All these years, Qi Bai didn't say anything, but Chen Shaojiao knew that since his parents divorced, Bai Sang had become a scar in his heart, and it would be better if he couldn't touch it.
When was young, had a deep relationship, and biological mother, whom hadn't seen for more than ten years after the divorce, contracted cancer...
No need to think in a different position, Chen Shaojiao knew that Qi Bai was definitely not feeling well now.
Chen Shaojiao felt that fate was so fucking unfair, and that all the bad things had left Qi Bai on the table.
Chen Shaojiao was so fucked up in his heart, he slowed down and said to Qi Bai, "If you want to come back... tell me, I'll pick you up."
Later, Chen Shaojiao said a few more words. Qi Bai couldn't remember anything, and he didn't even remember how he hung up the phone.
Qi Bai has not heard from Bai Sang for too long.
In the first two years, he would still inquire about each other's news, but Bai Sang changed his mobile phone number after the divorce, and his grandfather refused to reveal any news.
Qi Bai, who was in junior high school, realized it later - oh, I am also Qi's family.
She is avoiding me.
Mom wants to go to a new life, and she will only stumble in her footsteps.
Since then, Qi Bai has never asked Bai Sang any news.
Over the years, the only one who mentioned Bai Sang in front of Qi Bai was Qi Ruishan, and the sentence that followed:
Your mother didn't want you back then, but I brought you up with all my hard work, so you repay me like this?
Qi Bai stared at the unfinished painting in front of him and sat motionless for a long time.
He always thought that he would never hear from Bai Sang again in this life...
At the Xiacheng high-speed rail station, Chen Shaojiao picked up Qi Bai.
After getting in the car, Chen Shaojiao kept looking at him cautiously, not knowing how to say what he wanted to say.
Qi Bai was wearing sunglasses, frowning when he saw his unwillingness to speak:
"Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes. If you don't know, you think you have a crush on me."
Chen Shaojiao, who was just worried about Qi Bai's current state: "..."
Chen Shaojiao laughed angrily: "Who the fuck has a crush on you, I'm straight!"
Seeing that Qi Bai could still joke with himself, Chen Shaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Qi Bai slightly twitched the corners of his mouth and closed his eyes.
The car drove out of the high-speed rail station with many people, and Chen Shaojiao glanced at Qi Bai again, trying to keep his tone calm as usual:
"Go to my house first or...?"
Qi Bai said softly: "I have booked a hotel, go to the hotel first."
Knowing that Qi Bai didn't want to disturb him, Chen Shaojiao sighed in his heart and said yes.
On the way to the hotel, Qi Bai didn't ask a word about Bai Sang's current situation, Chen Shaojiao didn't know how to speak, and the atmosphere in the car was a little dignified and silent.
When he arrived at the hotel, Qi Bai put his luggage, Chen Shaojiao asked him if he wanted to go to the hospital now, and he could take it by himself.
Qi Bai sorted out his things without raising his head:
"You go back first, I'll go by myself later."
Knowing that Qi Bai was not mentally prepared to meet Bai Sang, Chen Shaojiao did not force him to send the ward number and bed number to his mobile phone:
"Then I'll go back today and see Aunt Bai tomorrow."
Qi Bai made a low "um".
When Chen Shaojiao silently left the switch and went to the door, Qi Bai stopped his hand in arranging things.
The hotel room was carpeted, and Qi Bai sat on the floor, watching the news from Chen Shaojiao for a while.
It took almost no time to make up his mind to come to Xiacheng, but when he really got here, Qi Bai doubted whether he was right here.
After all, that person... didn't want to see himself.
His existence will always remind Bai Sang of the failed marriage and the hysterical and hysterical days at the end of the marriage.
Chen Shaojiao was right in thinking about being close to the hometown, and Qi Bai was indeed not mentally prepared to meet Bai Sang.
He didn't even know what Bai Sang, who was nearly fifty years old, looked like.
Bai Sang's appearance when he was young hadn't been remembered for a long time in his heart, and the face in his memory was already vaguely vague.
Qi Bai tried to pull out the Bai Sang in her memory, and added a few wrinkles to the corners of her eyes and face, but failed.
He couldn't imagine it.
Qi Bai stayed in the hotel for more than an hour before going out to take a taxi to the hospital.
There were flowers and fruit baskets for visiting patients at the entrance of the hospital. Qi Bai lingered on the beautifully packaged bouquets of lilies and carnations for two seconds before paying with the fruit baskets.
