Ferocious Dog of Old - Chapter 78

[Chapter 78]

Tao Xiaodong went out for a total of two hours. If he knew that so many things would happen in these two hours, he would not have been able to go out that day.

Tao Huainan had a high fever for three days, and was so drowsy that he didn’t know what to do. He also occasionally screamed when he was in a coma, and would cry incessantly. Tao Xiaodong picked him up and patted his back.

Tao Huainan was unconscious in a coma, and only knew how to cry and call “little brother”, sometimes desperate, sometimes murmured, and sometimes infatuated. Tao Xiaodong held his head in his palms and coaxed softly, his brother’s shoulders were broad and he felt the same sense of security, but he wasn’t a little brother after all.

The child who hasn’t woken up doesn’t know, how can there be a younger brother, he may never have a younger brother.

I can’t control my crying in my dream, but it’s okay to wake up. Tao Huainan has never cried since he woke up, and never mentioned Chi Cheng. Tao Xiaodong understood him, touched his head, and told him I was in touch with Brother Ku, don’t worry.

Tao Huainan nodded numbly and said, “Thank you, brother.”

His voice was speechless, and the words “thank you, brother” were spoken several times and he could not say clearly. He lowered his head and sat with his back slightly hunched. The smell in the hospital was not that bad, but Tao Huainan still felt that the warm room temperature made his head swell and made him feel sick.

Tao Xiaodong didn’t accuse too much, and didn’t ask what happened between him and Chi Cheng.

“I have something in my heart to tell my brother, and my brother will help you make up your mind.” Tao Xiaodong sat behind Tao Huainan, supported him with his back, and spoke to him calmly, “Brother knows you are sensible, and you have a lot of things on your mind, I want to hear from you.”

“Whether I’m busy or not, whether I’m with Dr. Tang or not, it doesn’t delay our closeness. I do a lot of things for your well-being, otherwise it’s nothing. It ‘s pointless.”

Tao Xiaodong wrapped one hand around Tao Huainan, clasped one wrist of Tao Huainan, and rubbed the back of his hand like he played with his hands and arms when he was a child.

“There’s nothing that can’t be done. Looking back in a few years, it’s nothing.” Tao Xiaodong hugged his younger brother, leaning against him with his thin and thin back, Tao Xiaodong rubbed his hair, pinched his ears, and said , “Don’t go to the horns, baby, don’t hurt yourself.”

Tao Xiaodong didn’t finish his words, but Tao Huainan understood the last half of his unspoken sentence. He has always been sensitive and smart, and he knew that his brother wanted to say “don’t hurt the people close to him.”

However, the damage is inevitable and irreversible.

Tao Huainan turned around and hugged his brother, burying his face on his shoulder, he was as light as a child.

“Brother, I’m sorry…” Tao Huainan pressed against his brother’s shoulder, hoarsely and sincerely said, “I don’t want to… hurt you.”

“Brother knows,” Tao Xiaodong rubbed the back of his head, “you love us more than anyone else. ”

Tao Huainan closed his eyes that couldn’t see anything, and was speechless for a long time.

The family has completely lost the breath of Chi Cheng, no one is indifferent and silent, but their eyes have always stopped on Tao Huainan. Tao Huainan was no longer as nervous as before. He no longer deliberately controlled himself not to sleep, but he couldn’t fall asleep normally.

Tang Suoyan asked him softly if he wanted to chat with a brother.

Tao Huainan knew he was talking about a doctor, but he still shook his head.

He still occasionally refuses to communicate and does not speak.

But after shutting himself up again, he took the initiative to come to find Tang Suoyan, carrying Tao Xiaodong on his back, and said in a low voice, “Brother Tang, can you…find a doctor for me?”

Tang Suoyan immediately replied: “Of course.”

Tao Huainan pursed his lips and whispered, “Thank you, Brother Tang. I’m sorry…for making you worry.”

Tang Suoyan smiled, patted him and said, “Don’t be nervous, just chat.”

He was taken by Tang Suoyan’s hand to the doctor, Tao Xiaodong knew, but Tao Xiaodong was willing not to follow. Tao Huainan didn’t want brother to know, Tao Xiaodong pretended not to know.

The doctor’s surname was Qi, and he was older than Tang Suoyan. He was a senior in a different major at that time.

When Tao Huainan came last time, he was very uncooperative, his eyes and mouth were closed tightly, and he didn’t say a word. This time, the doctor snapped his fingers in his ear, and the sound was not too loud. Tao Huainan didn’t expect it, and after reacting, he took a small step to the side.

The doctor said to Tao Huainan gently: “Go in and sit for a while? Are you nervous?”

Tao Huainan shook his head and said, “No.” The

doctor took him in and gestured to Tang Suoyan to sit first.

The doctor’s hands are wide and warm, and they don’t feel oppressive on the shoulders. He half pushed Tao Huainan to a sofa and said, “Sit down.”

Tao Huainan set up a sofa and sat down, putting his hands on his lap.

“Come on, just the two of us here.” The doctor poured him a glass of water and put it in Tao Huainan’s hand, which to a certain extent gave Tao Huainan something to hold in his hand, which relieved his confusion.

The doctor sat opposite him, said something irrelevant, and his eyes fell on Tao Huainan from time to time.

However, Tao Huainan did not show any more nervousness except for being at a loss when he was alone with strangers in a space at first.

The doctor went around in circles for a while, and finally got to the point.

He leaned on the sofa, looked at Tao Huainan and said, “It’s very hard, right?”

Tao Huainan blinked and said nothing.

The doctor seemed to understand him very well, soothed his nervousness, and said in advance: “I will keep a secret for you for the time being.”

Tao Huainan was still a little hesitant, but his unspoken struggle was seen by the doctor last time. through. He smiled and said to Tao Huainan, “Are you scared?”

His tone was very relaxed, and he spoke very relaxedly, as if it was not a big deal, as if he had seen a lot, he said to Tao Huainan, “It’s alright, don’t be afraid.”

From now on, Tao Huainan will come to visit regularly. Doctors do psychological intervention here.

The doctor’s words mattered. He promised Tao Huainan to keep secrets for him, but he really didn’t tell Tang Suoyan about the content of the treatment. Maybe he was thinking of a doctor, which made Tao Huainan really trust him.

Tao Xiaodong asked several times, not to spy on Tao Huainan’s secrets, but to know if he should pay special attention. Tao Xiaodong didn’t understand psychology after all, and he was afraid that something he said accidentally would irritate him.

He also specifically asked once if he could mention his little brother in front of Tao Huainan.

The doctor waved his hand and smiled and said, “He’s not as fragile as you think. Where did he think he’s gone? On the contrary, he has a strong mind and is much stronger than ordinary people. Usually, there is no need to say this or not, and there is no need to avoid anything.” What the

doctor said It’s not quite clear, Tao Xiaodong said: “He sometimes doesn’t like to talk, just like before, he closes himself up.”

“You can remember him…” The doctor’s words stopped here, and the words he was going to say were changed. “Remember the cycle of this situation. He has always remembered it himself. Anyway, you can count it as an observation.”

Tao Xiaodong agreed. The doctor and Tang Suoyan are very familiar with him. Not so lively. Tao Huainan fell asleep, Tao Xiaodong did not rush to call him, and sat outside chatting with the doctor for a while.

The doctor likes to chat very much, and even made an appointment to call Shang Suoyan and Chen Rin for dinner next week. Chen Rin was Tang Suoyan’s roommate, and they had a good relationship when they were in school.

Tao Huainan woke up and walked out by himself, Tao Xiaodong opened his mouth to give him a hint: “Here.”

Tao Huainan came over by himself, Tao Xiaodong said, “Don’t worry, there is nothing.”

“He needs a blind stick, it’s too dangerous. now.” The doctor said to Tao Xiaodong.

Tao Xiaodong looked at Tao Huainan, who was walking slowly, and did not reply immediately. Tao Huainan has always disliked the blind cane. He would feel insecure when walking with the blind cane.

“You can’t follow him forever. In the future, he will have a lot of his own time. Seeing that he is going to college, you will follow him too?” The doctor smiled, “You have to let go when it’s time to let go. Don’t be reluctant.”

Tao Xiaodong also smiled . , looked at Tao Huainan and said, “I’m not reluctant.”

Tao Huainan took the initiative to pick up the blind stick, but he wasn’t quite used to it, and he always stumbled.

No one was holding him all the time. He had forgotten how to use the cane he learned in the blind school when he was a child, and he had to learn it a little bit again.

Before walking on the road, he couldn’t tell that he was blind, always a decent boy, and now he is finally labeled as a blind man. He is not proficient in walking, and sometimes he fails to find an obstacle with his blind stick, and he may fall on the ground.

He knew that his brother was with him, so he immediately turned around and smiled reassuringly, ”

It’s alright, it’s alright.” The shallow wounds on his arms were almost healed, but the marks of the wounds on his body were never going away. , it usually takes a long time to see a bad small hole, and this time it is estimated that it will take two months to clear up.

I learned to walk with a blind stick, and I fell again with broken skin on my arms and legs, and my hands and bowls were broken when I fell. Tao Huainan was treated by Brother Tang, and habitually blew on his wrist.

Tang Suoyan laughed at him: “Like a child.”

Tao Huainan smiled too, touched the knee pads that Brother Tang had prepared for him, and said softly, “It won’t hurt when you blow it.”

Tang Suoyan knew what he was thinking, and held it. He blew on his wrist and asked, “Does it work like this?”

“Ah,” Tao Huainan nodded, “it works.”

When not talking, Tao Huainan would sit on Chi Cheng’s study chair. one day.

Sometimes it’s sitting upright, sometimes squatting on a chair and tucking your knees.

He was less terrified of sleeping, but still couldn’t. When I can’t sleep, I also come to sit on this chair. Occasionally, I will sit with my back to the table, with my back against the edge of the table, and my face towards the back of the chair.

He never shy away from mentioning Chi Cheng at home, and his brother didn’t shy away from him either.

Brother has contact with Chi Cheng, and Tao Huainan can sometimes hear brother calling him. He would not deliberately lean in to listen, nor would he deliberately avoid it.

Brother said that Chi Cheng had been admitted, and he said about the school. Tao Huainan gave a soft “wow” and said with a smile, “That’s great.”

Tao Xiaodong touched his head and face, but said nothing.

Tao Huainan went to one of their local schools to study psychology.

He was far from getting enough points from the medical school. Tao Xiaodong did not let him go to the special education college. He submitted applications one by one. In addition, Dr. Qi asked an acquaintance to submit them, and finally Tao Huainan was allowed to go to school.

Dr. Qi even promised him: “I will personally take you to the medical school when you are in graduate school.”

Tao Huainan turned towards him in surprise, shaking his head with a smile.

“Don’t shake your head,” Dr. Qi flicked on his forehead. “Don’t be discouraged, you can’t forget our little secret.”

“I didn’t forget it, I remember it all.” Tao Huainan said seriously.

“That’s fine. You have to count what I say, or I’ll be finished,” the doctor said.

Tao Huainan pulled the corner of his mouth, nodded and said, “I will.”
