Chapter 346: My Mind Is Not Here
Chapter 346: My Mind Is Not Here
Father Ding was relieved to see his son's confidence, but he still pretended to be concerned and said, "You still have to take care of your health."
As he was speaking, Ding Hang suddenly received a call from Hu Zhou.
Ding Hang made a gesture to keep quiet. He had known Hu Zhou for such a long time, and although he had been to Hu's house several times, he had never invited Hu Zhou to his house once.
The purpose was to prevent Hu Zhou from knowing his parents, so that when his parents pretended to be strangers to buy a house in the future, the other party would not suspect anything.
"Hello, Hu Zhou, why are you calling me suddenly?"
Hu Zhou still pretended to be ignorant as before: "Brother Ding, our department will be going out for a field trip soon. It will take about 10 days. During these 10 days, I won't be able to play basketball with you."
Ding Hang frowned. The doctor said that it was a miracle that he had held on until now. In half a month at most, his knee joint would become necrotic, and by then, his whole body would be unable to move.
Seeing that Ding Hang didn't say anything, Hu Zhou was afraid that he would change his plan, so he said, "Brother Ding, wait for me to come back. When I come back, I will treat you to a big meal at my house!"
Because of this sentence, Ding Hang laughed again.
It was only 10 days, which was within a controllable range. In addition, Hu Zhou took the initiative to provide him with the opportunity to come to the house, which saved him the trouble of thinking of excuses.
"That's such a shame, but it doesn't matter. It's only 10 days. When you come back, please share the photos you took with me."
Hu Zhou smiled cheerfully: "Don't worry, I will do it when the time comes!"
After hanging up the phone, Ding's father asked anxiously, "Is this kid going to change his mind, son? The doctor said you only have about 15 days left..."
Before he could finish his words, Ding's mother pulled up Ding's father's sleeve, and Ding's father then realized how anxious he had been just now.
"No, Hu Zhou is a man of his word. Unless someone else breaks a promise, he never fails to keep it."
Ding Hang seemed to have gotten used to it. After explaining indifferently, he walked around the two of them and returned to his bedroom.
I still remember that during the time when he was diagnosed, his parents almost spent all their savings on him.
But when his condition worsened and his younger brother was born, their love seemed to sour.
In the next 10 days, Ding Hang seldom contacted Hu Zhou. Even if he came to ask, he just asked him on the phone how he was doing.
Hu Zhou is worthy of his name as a talker. He is quite good at talking nonsense. He boasted a lot but Ding Hang didn't suspect him.
Soon 10 days passed, and Ding Hang immediately asked whether Hu Zhou had returned.
I thought Hu Zhou would happily invite him to his house, but unexpectedly, Hu Zhou on the other end of the phone said apologetically: "Brother Ding, something happened here, I'm afraid I won't be back until the day after tomorrow."
Ding Hang was so angry that he vomited blood.
His condition has worsened a lot in the past few days. It seems that no miracle has happened to him. The doctor said he only has half a month to live, and he really only has half a month.
Hu Zhou pretended not to know and asked anxiously, "Brother Ding, what's wrong with you?"
Ding Hang didn't dare to reveal his anger at the moment, so he could only lie: "It's okay, I choked on the water."
Hu Zhou snorted in his heart, but said, "Brother Ding, don't worry, I will be back in two days."
Ding Hang always felt that something was wrong, but he also felt that it was unlikely. After all, no one except his family knew about what he had planned.
"Hu Zhou, I think I left something at your house last time. Are your parents home? I want to go get it."
Hu Zhou knew that Ding Hang had some suspicions, so he wanted to commit suicide early. He said apologetically, "Brother Ding, my parents saw that I was not at home, so they went to my grandmother's house in the countryside these days. There is no one at home these days. Please wait for two more days, I will be back soon."
After saying that, he pretended that he was in the mountains and the signal was bad, and hung up the phone.
Ding Hang was so furious, he didn't expect that at this critical juncture, Hu Zhou would frequently encounter problems, causing his plan to be delayed again and again.
If this goes on any longer, he will just have to lie on the hospital bed and wait for death.
If that was the case, wouldn't his careful efforts over the past six months have become a joke?
But at this point, he has no other choice. Since there are primary and middle schools near the community where Hu Zhou lives, most of the residents' children are only primary and middle school students.
These students are picked up and dropped off by their parents when going to and from school, so he has no chance to come into contact with them at all.
There was only one Hu Zhou, who was about the same age as him.
It is not realistic to change the target temporarily now. He can only pray that Hu Zhou really cannot come back in time due to an emergency, and not because he has discovered something.
Of course, the latter has a lower probability, because once something is discovered, as a normal person, one will definitely stay away from him at the first opportunity.
Thinking of this, Ding Hang suppressed the doubts in his heart. However, when he thought that he had to wait for another two days, he felt his blood boiling and his physical condition became worse.
Two days later, the medicine could no longer stop the pain in Ding Hang's body, but for the sake of his own plan, after receiving the invitation from Hu Zhou, he gritted his teeth and went to Hu Zhou's house.
Although Hu Zhou hated Ding Hang to death, he still warmly welcomed him into the house.
Looking at Hu's mother busy in the kitchen and Hu's father constantly serving dishes outside, Ding Hang was stunned for a moment.
Once upon a time, his home seemed to be in the same situation as before, but after he fell ill, he never saw such a warm scene in his home again.
"Hey, Xiaohang, why have you lost so much weight recently? Your face looks sunken."
Hu Zhou also agreed: "Yes, Brother Ding, you were thin before, why are you even thinner now?"
Ding Hang touched his face and laughed: "Uncle and aunt, my stomach has always been bad. You know, I can't digest anything I eat."
"Come here, kid, eat more and replenish your body. Your aunt has cooked all your favorite dishes today."
Ding Hang nodded. It would be a perfect ending if he could have a good meal before dying.
The meal was quickly finished and Hu's mother went into the kitchen. Hu's father also felt that he could not get a word in in front of the young people, so he made an excuse to go to the kitchen to help.
Hu Zhou excitedly took out his mobile phone and handed the photos downloaded from the Internet to Ding Hang.
However, Ding Hang's mind was not on this at all at the moment. If he had taken a closer look, he would have seen that there were still many watermarks on the photos that Hu Zhou showed him that had not been removed in time.
"Hu Zhou, I think I left my wristband in your bedroom last time. Can you help me find it?"
Hu Zhou smiled and said, "What kind of wristband is this? It's so precious. Was it a gift from your girlfriend?"
Ding Hang now just wanted to get Hu Zhou out of the living room, so he quickly admitted, "Yes, yes, please help me find it!"
Hu Zhou stood up with a smile and went into the bedroom, leaving the huge living room to Ding Hang alone.
