Peerless CEO Falls In Love With Me

0After a long while, Qiu Tong's body finally started to turn around. She gently shook off the snow all over her body, lowered her head for a while, and occasionally wiped her face with her hand. Then, she slowly turned around and started to search for me.    

    

I walked over to Qiu Tong and approached her. Although she had already wiped her face clean, I could still see the traces of undried tears on her face, as well as the sadness and melancholy that had yet to be soothed …    

    

I bit my lips tightly, trying my best to control my emotions. I smiled at Qiu Tong. Is the sea beautiful in the snow? "    

    

Qiu Tong nodded slightly and said softly, "Yes, it's beautiful!"    

    

Obviously, Qiu Tong's reply was a perfunctory and absent-minded one.    

    

"Boss Qiu, I was standing here just now. I seemed to hear what you were shouting about? It seems to be a name. What's Keke, are you calling someone? " I suddenly said to Qiu Tong.    

    

Qiu Tong's body shuddered and her facial expression twitched a little. She seemed to realize that she had forgotten about my existence and where I was standing just now. Where did I yell? I coughed twice due to the stimulation of the cold wind on my respiratory tract … "Cough, cough."    

    

"Oh …" "Well, I thought you were calling someone!" "No," I said.    

    

"Who else can I call besides you?" Qiu Tong gave me a lonely look, then said, "I want to go back now... I don't want to walk around anymore. "    

    

As she spoke, Qiu Tong walked straight back, her feet making a slight crunching sound as she stepped on the snow. At the same time, she was accompanied by a sigh.    

    

I followed, heading for the hotel.    

    

We took a shortcut back to the hotel and crossed a winding road. None of the roads in the old city area of Qingdao headed east or west, nor were they straight. They were all crooked and many of the crossroads were not crossroads. Many of them were three-way, five-way, six-way or even seven-way crossroads. The roads were not wide, many of them one-way.    

    

There were few people on the road, and the snow was still blowing fiercely. Qiu Tong and I were walking on the road, but we were not in the mood to see the scenery. Each of us had their own thoughts and kept quiet.    

    

Suddenly, Qiu Tong stopped, her eyes fixed on the ATM that was passing by a bank across the street …    

    

I followed Qiu Tong's gaze and vaguely saw a dark mass. It seemed to be someone lying there.    

    

"Boss Qiu, you —" I looked at Qiu Tong.    

    

"Lying outside in such a cold weather will freeze to death," Qiu Tong said. "Look, there's a man lying on the ground."    

    

"Either a tramp or a drunk." "No," I said.    

    

"The severe winter in the north is fatal for tramps and drunken men. Every year, many people freeze to death in the open air." Qiu Tong sighed and suddenly frowned again. She raised her foot and started to cross the street.    

    

"Boss Qiu, you have to help him —" I followed him.    

    

"Mm …" "Look, this is not a drunk man, this is a tramp. There seems to be a kid lying next to him!" Qiu Tong said as she walked.    

    

As we spoke, we crossed the street and walked over to the ATM. Sure enough, it was a homeless man with a wrinkled face and a beard.    

    

In his arms lay a child about four to five years old. His hair looked like a girl's, and his face was covered with filth. The child lay in the arms of the old man, covered in a thin, tattered blanket, shivering in the cold.    

    

Near them was a brightly lit, high-class restaurant. The place was full of cheers, songs, dances, wine, and people coming and going, but no one would even look up at this vagabond with a little girl. No one would even stop to give them something to eat …    

    

The smell of wine and meat and the smell of frozen bones along the way, I deeply appreciate this point.    

    

Qiu Tong walked over and knelt beside the old man and the child. She first reached out her hand to touch the child's forehead and was startled. "Hot! The child has a high fever!" Qiu Tong said before she suddenly unzipped her down jacket and opened up the blanket. She lifted the ragged child out of the blanket and, ignoring the dirt and filth all over the child's body, pulled the child into her embrace. She tightly wrapped the down jacket around the child …    

    

I lowered my head and looked at the old man. I reached out my hand to lightly push his arm. "Old grandpa, old grandpa, wake up —"    

    

The old man didn't move at all. He seemed to be frozen solid.    

    

"Little friend, is this your grandfather?" Qiu Tong asked the girl while she warmed the child.    

    

The girl coughed nonstop and said in a daze, "My grandfather is sick... My grandpa is going to die... Auntie, please save my grandpa. "    

    

At the sound of the child's voice, my eyes immediately became wet, and Qiu Tong's face immediately started to flow with tears.    

    

I knelt down and touched the old man's nostrils with my hand. I tested his pulse, and there seemed to be a faint throbbing and breathing.    

    

I said to Qiu Tong, "It seems like her grandfather is still breathing. He can still be saved."    

    

"Hurry up and call 120 ah, hurry up and send them to the hospital, the child is also having a high fever!" Qiu Tong spoke urgently and hugged the child tightly, comforting him, "Be good, good children. Uncle and Auntie will send you to the hospital. Your grandfather won't die, he won't."    

    

I hastily took out my cell phone and called 120. It was quickly connected.    

    

"Next to the ATM at 42 Zhongshan Road, there is an old man and a child. The old man is dying and the child has a high fever." I said quickly.    

    

"Are you a relative?" a woman's voice from 120 asked.    

    

"I'm just passing by. They're homeless." Before I could finish my sentence, the other party said, "Then please hit the civil affairs department. We are a hospital, homeless people can't afford the medical expenses. You should go to the civil affairs department for help."    

    

I was immediately angered and shouted, "You're f * cking not going to save me. If you don't dare to send an ambulance, I'll go to the news department tomorrow and expose you. If you don't believe me, you can try it — hurry up and send an ambulance. Your father will pay —"    

    

I don't know if it was due to someone paying or if they were scared by my threats, but the other side immediately replied, "Okay, let's go to the ambulance."    

    

After hanging up, I sat on the ground and picked up the old man. I took off my cotton clothes and draped them over his body. Then I let him lean against my chest and called out to him, "Old grandpa, wake up — — wake up — —"    

    

After shouting for a while, the old man's body suddenly moved, and then his lips began to move.    

    

I hurried to put my ear to his mouth, and Qiu Tong knelt down with the baby in her arms and approached him.    

    

"Good people... Good people... I beg you to save this child. " The old man spoke in a faint, broken voice, his eyes slightly opened as he looked at Qiu Tong and me.    

    

"Old grandpa, don't worry. We'll save you and the child right away. The ambulance will be here soon —" Qiu Tong said as she held the old man's left hand. My hand was holding the old man's right hand.    

    

The old man's hand was very cold, as if the blood was no longer flowing, as if the breath of life was growing further and further away from him.    

    

"Good people... Thank you... I... I can't take it anymore... I can't get through this winter. " The old man's voice became weaker and weaker, "This child... This child... I found it in the trash bin 5 years ago when I was scrap picking at Hsinghai. It was thrown by someone … I took this kid on a beggar's living and wandered around... This winter's Hsinghai was too cold for them to bear, so they brought their children to beg all the way south, hoping to find a warm place to spend the winter … I never thought that I would encounter a blizzard right when I arrived here. "    

    

Hearing this, my heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife. This child actually had such a similar fate to Qiu Tong. He was an orphan who was abandoned.    

    

He looked at Qiu Tong as tears welled up in his eyes and his body trembled uncontrollably.    

    

"Good people... Please pity me old man, please accept this child, save this child... The child's name is Xiao Xue. The day I picked her up, it was snowing heavily. " The old man's voice became softer and softer. Suddenly, there was no sound. Then, his head tilted to the side, his eyes closed, and he stopped breathing.    

    

"Grandpa — — grandpa —" The child in Qiu Tong's embrace cried out as she weakly waved her thin little arm. This was her only family and source of warmth in the world for the past five years, the only support she had in her young heart. Now that her only family had left her, how sad her child must be.

"Gramps — Gramps —" I shook the old man's body, but there was no response.    

    

The old man's body finally became ice-cold. After experiencing the hardships of the human world, he finally let go of this heartless, snowy night.    

    

Qiu Tong tightly held the child with one hand and held the old man's cold and stiff hand with the other. Her body violently trembled and was in extreme pain …    

    

Soon, the ambulance arrived and a few white coats came down.    

    

Qiu Tong carried Snowy and hurriedly got into the car. I called a few white coats to help the old man onto the stretcher. A doctor-looking man reached out to touch the old man's nose and checked his pulse before saying, "No need to carry him, he's already dead. Leave him here for the civil affairs department to deal with at daybreak!"    

    

With that, the doctor stood up and was about to leave.    

    

"No, he's not dead. He can still be saved. Bring him up here —" Qiu Tong shouted from the car, "Doctor, please, this old man was just talking."    

    

"You clearly died, yet you still say that you can speak and dragged us over to our place. Do you want to raise the death rate of our hospital?" The doctor looked at Qiu Tong with displeasure and said indifferently.    

    

I stood up and grabbed the doctor's arm from behind me. The doctor jumped and looked at me.    

    

"Carry the old man to the carriage!" I glared at the doctor. "Margo Wall, if you dare say 'no' again, I'll cripple you immediately!"    

    

With that, I pushed back with my hand and the doctor cried out in pain, not daring to say anything more. He hastily ordered the men to carry the old man onto the stretcher, get on the stretcher, and head for the hospital.    

    

When we reached the hospital, Qiu Tong rushed to the emergency room with the baby in her arms. A few nurses and I carried the old man into the emergency room.    

    

The old man was dead. He had died a long time ago. The doctor quickly came to this conclusion.    

    

The old man's body was taken to the mortuary. I accompanied it myself.    

    

Then I found Qiu Tong. Snowy had been diagnosed with acute pneumonia caused by fever, which had reached 41 degrees Celsius. Her heart had begun to fail and she was in a coma.    

    

The hospital quickly started to save Snowy. Soon, they hung up the bottle and gave her a fever needle. Then, I went to complete the procedures for the hospital and paid the deposit for the hospital.    

    

Qiu Tong listened to my story about the old man in silence and sighed deeply.    

    

Then, Qiu Tong looked at Xiao Xue who was in the midst of transfusion on the sickbed. After looking for a long time, she suddenly leaned over and put her face close to Xiao Xue's face, not moving at all …    

    

Looking at Qiu Tong's actions, my heart trembled and was moved …    

    

That night, Qiu Tong and I didn't go back to the hotel. We sat together in the ward with Snowy. Lili held Snowy in her arms and leaned against the headboard.
