Huo Mingze and Shen Modi found a coffee shop not far away. After sitting down, Huo Mingze ordered coffee. Shen Modi also handed his personal information to Huo Mingze. She picked up the key points and said: "Thank you for helping me out. The main reason why I went on a blind date is because my father is sick and may not last long. I want to make him feel at ease. Of course, I have indeed reached the age to get married." " Huo Mingze expressed his understanding, nodded, and said about his own situation: "The reason why I went on a blind date is that I really want to get married." A person who has been in love for six years will go abroad as soon as he wants, in the way he hates the most. Then, his bride can be someone else. He can end a six-year relationship or start a new one in six minutes. Shen Modi added: "The burden on my family will be heavier. My father is ill and my brother is in a school for the deaf. If I really get married, I will have to bear the burden of my father and brother. But don't worry, I won't touch you. salary." There is no emotion in a blind date, so it is better to explain these things clearly first. Huo Mingze nodded to express his understanding: "You can use my salary. I said, if you get married, your parents will also be mine. If you have no questions, I can get the certificate at any time. Add a WeChat account first?" I don’t know much about her, but at least she is a filial woman. Filial piety means heart. How could a woman who carried her father and brother on one shoulder be so bad? Besides, he can afford the gamble. "Okay." Shen Modi didn't show any pretense. He took out his mobile phone and exchanged WeChat messages with Huo Mingze. Isn’t that what blind dates are like? Two strangers, when they felt that the conditions were suitable, they started talking about marriage. What's more, she herself came to the blind date for marriage. Just after adding WeChat, WeChat rang, and a message came from my brother: Sister, I have arranged for my father to be discharged from the hospital. Shen Modi's heart skipped a beat, and her fingers trembled with anxiety. She quickly typed: How could Dad be discharged from the hospital if his condition is so serious? My younger brother was born without hearing, so he cannot speak. But my younger brother is very smart. He has been attending a school for the deaf and mute these years. He is very good at typing and sign language. The younger brother replied: Dad insists on being discharged from the hospital. Sister, let dad be discharged from the hospital. In the latter sentence, Shen Modi could even see his brother's desperate and helpless face. She understands, she understands everything. Both her father and brother thought they were dragging her down. My younger brother even carried his schoolbag home last month and refused to go to school. Shen Modi's nose was sore and he immediately called his father. The other end of the phone picked up quickly. The voice of father Shen Weiguo came, very calm and warm, and also in a slow tone because of his illness: "Xiao Di, what's the matter? It was my intention to be discharged from the hospital. Don't blame Xiao Guang." "Dad, are you okay if you don't leave the hospital?" Shen Modi burst into tears, her voice filled with pleading. With outsiders around, she wanted to suppress her tears, but she couldn't. "Xiao Di, if dad's disease can't be cured, don't waste money. Dad promises you that you will take a good rest when you go home and try to live for a few more years, until you get married, until you have children..." "Dad, the only thing that can be cured about your disease is that it is chronic and requires longer treatment. Dad, the treatment costs are not expensive. They are all affordable drugs. Medical insurance can reimburse a lot, so we can afford the treatment. Dad "Don't leave the hospital yet, I'm coming over now." Shen Modi's eyes were red. She tried to persuade her father to stay in the hospital no matter what. "Xiao Di, you don't have to come to the hospital. Xiaoguang and I are already on our way home and will be home soon." "Dad...I'm coming back now." Shen Modi choked, her throat tight. She was very panicked. She always felt that her father seemed to know about his illness. Because there seemed to be a suppressed despair and reluctance in his voice. "Okay, please slow down and pay attention to safety." Dad smiled on the phone and then hung up. As Shen Mo Di listened to his father's laughter, his heart spasmed again. She raised her head slightly, trying to push back the tears in her eyes. But tears rolled down my cheeks. Huo Mingze handed Shen Modi a tissue the moment she put down the phone. "Thank you! Sorry, I have to go back first." Shen Modi took the tissue, turned her head away, and quickly wiped away her tears, not wanting Huo Mingze to see her embarrassment. Huo Mingze comforted: "Life is long, and there will be difficult times. I will send you!" "No, I can just go back by myself, thank you!" Shen Modi left with her bag and went to the bar to pay. Huo Mingze took the lead: "I'll do it!" "You already paid for the coffee before." Shen Modi insisted on scanning the QR code. She habitually doesn't want to owe anyone. Huo Mingze stretched out his hand to hold her wrist and asked her to stay away from the bar. He scanned the QR code to pay and said, "With me, you will never have to pay." Shen Modi looked at the hand on his wrist. Has she been too exhausted these past few years? Is she too fragile? She actually felt that it would be great if they could have a marriage where they treated each other with respect. Huo Mingze had already paid, and he let go of Shen Modi's hand. Shen Modi cheered up, said something to contact her again, and hurried out of the coffee shop. She walked to the side of the road and dropped the car. After a while, a Chevrolet stopped in front of her. Huo Mingze lowered the window and shouted: "Get in the car, I'll see you off." "No, my car is coming." Shen Modi didn't want to trouble Huo Mingze. "I happen to be free and I'll give you a ride. You'll have to wait for a while to take a taxi," Huo Mingze said. "Sorry to trouble you, thank you!" Shen Modi was really in a hurry to go home, so he opened the door and got in the car. Huo Mingze leaned over to fasten Shen Modi's seat belt. Shen Modi's whole body tensed up. Huo Mingze helped her fasten her seat belt and then focused on driving. Shen Modi breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced sideways at Huo Mingze. His fingers on the steering wheel were very nice. Slender, with distinct joints. "Where do you live?" Huo Mingze asked. Shen Modi immediately told his home address: "In Liyuan Community." This house was rented by them. In the past, their family also had their own house. Later, because he discovered that his younger brother was born without hearing, his father sold the house and prepared to treat his illness. However, my mother took away the money from selling the house. That year, she was 11 years old and her brother was 2 years old. The house payment was gone, and my brother's illness was also delayed. At that time, they were still living in Meicheng. After she graduated from college the year before last, their family of three moved from Meicheng to Haicheng. Anyway, they are renting a house, and life is the same everywhere. However, misfortune never feels sorry for the poor. She and her father finally saved 170,000 yuan and prepared to install cochlear implants for their younger brother. Dad was sick and was diagnosed with liver cancer. The doctor said that it had spread and surgery was of little significance. He suggested conservative treatment, anti-cancer drugs, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy. She kept hiding this from her father. She only said that it was because he was too tired after so many years and it was a strain. If he stayed in the hospital for a while, he would get better. Regarding her brother's cochlea, she said that she wanted to save some money to replace it with an imported one. It would be more expensive and she would have to wait another year. Soon, Huo Mingze parked the car at the gate of the community and asked, "Do you want me to accompany you up?"
