The Escort

rything carefully, he walked into the ward.

Probably because of lying down for a long time.
She looked somewhat depressed, and when she saw him, Shao Rong’s eyes lit up.
She was wearing an oxygen mask, so she couldn’t speak.
Shao Mingwei hurriedly sat down and gently held her hand.
Smiling softly, he said, “Don’t get too excited.” 

“How do you feel?” Shao Mingwei asked.

Shao Rong blinked and then blinked her eyes again.

Shao Mingwei slightly leaned forward.
“I will tell Rong Rong some good news.
Doctor Sun said that if the matching is successful, you can have a kidney transplant.
In the future, our Rong Rong will be a healthy little girl.”

Shao Rong’s eyes brightened, then it gradually turned gloomy.
Shao Mingwei looked at her with worry. 

Shao Mingwei knew what she was worried about and showed a warm smile.
“Brother is rich, so Rong Rong doesn’t need to worry.
You only need to be happy.
Taking care of your body is also helping brother.”

……

When the visiting period ended, Shao Mingwei came out of the ward.
He leaned against the wall for a long time without moving.
After a long time, he took out his phone again, searching to no avail.
When he was scanning through his contacts, he suddenly saw Sister Zhang’s phone number.

Shao Mingwei’s scrolling finger stopped. 

Staring at the short eleven digits, Shao Mingwei slowly pursed his thin lips.

Finally, he thought, can his pride and feelings be compared with his sister’s life?

Shao Mingwei dialed the phone number.

“Sister Zhang, um, this is Xiao Shao… Can I trouble you to contact Mr.
Min for me?” 

At 8 o’clock the next day, Shao Mingwei changed his clothes and stood outside the door to Tanchunfang box where Min Yu was.

Shao Mingwei pondered as he walked back and forth to Tanchunfang, whether fate is a fickle thing or has Min Yu intentionally come for him.
Standing for a moment to clear out all the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Shao Mingwei pushed the door open.

The last time he came in, the lights in the luxurious and spacious room were dim and human figures were unclear.
Entering once again, Min Yu was the only one sitting under the dim warm light, quietly looking at his phone.
He probably came directly after taking care of the company because Min Yu was still in a formal striped shirt, wearing a meticulously handled tie, and his coat casually draped on the back of the sofa.
Hearing the noise, he raised his head and showed a gentle, delighted smile.

Shao Mingwei closed the door, standing in front of it.
He licked his dried lips and greeted him, “Mr.
Min.” 

Min Yu looked at him.
However, he did not speak, and it took him a while before he finally reacted.
“You’re here… Come over and sit down ba.”

He had difficulty hiding the excitement and joy in his tone, as well as the shyness and longing.
Although under these mixed emotions, he said the sentence slowly and softly, as if the words were melting in his mouth, fearing that the youth would be alarmed.

But Shao Mingwei did not notice.

At this moment, he only felt that the light was dazzling, like an afternoon sun during summer that could burn people.
He also felt that the temperature of the air conditioner was not high enough and the room was not well ventilated.
The air was stagnant, making it difficult for him to breathe, his throat parched.
His complexion was flushed with fine sweat on his forehead.
He thought that the illumination from the light was particularly good and he had nowhere to hide.
He looked like he was stripped of his clothes and was forced to run naked in the public. 

Because he remembered the moment when he resolutely rejected Min Yu in the car.

Although he’s aware that no amount of pride can compare to Shao Rong’s life, Shao Mingwei still feels ashamed, embarrassed, and guilty because he has made a noble and virtuous stance that he would neither bend nor submit to money.
He knows that Min Yu is too good, so he will not waste the other person’s feelings and just ultimately stop seeing each other.
It was he who expressed the attitude that the other party had no chance, but it was also he who took the initiative to find Min Yu.

He had said it all, but now standing in front of Min Yu, Shao Mingwei just wants to find even the smallest crack for him to get in.
