This topic let my heart a sharp pain but I still nodded.
Ming glanced at me as if he realized he said something wrong. “Sorry, I mentioned something that made you sad.”
“No, it’s not worth it to be sad for such a person.” I shook my head. “My life and his life were originally parallel lines. I felt so close to him before, but it was just my wishful thinking.”
Sean and I were probably never meant to have a future.
“To this day, I don’t want to say anything to justify him. In any case, I don’t think that as a man, he should do anything to hurt someone he loves.”
Ming looked ahead.
His eyes were a little dim.
“Ming, you are wrong. He doesn’t love me.”
Maybe he loved himself all the time.
Ming did not say anything.
The car quickly drove to a hospital. He took me up. The nurse took us to an office.
There was a doctor in her 40s sitting in the office.
After examining my face, she said, “Your face can be treated, but the recovery period is relatively long, and it is almost impossible to fully recover.”
What the woman doctor said was similar to what the doctor Sean found said.
After that, the female doctor gave me a series of thorough examinations.
She talked about the risks, the preparations needed, and how many times the entire operation was done, and the recovery time.
“Well, I accept.”
The doctor nodded, “Okay, I am going to be here for a few days, and I am going to work out the treatment. You come back the day after tomorrow, and we can start with the first step.”
When I heard that, I wanted to say yes. Suddenly I thought of something and asked the doctor, “There is a very important activity I have to go next month.”
“You can not go unless you do not make up.”
The female doctor heard that when I said that, she understood.
No makeup?
No.
I wanted to put on makeup, and I needed to put on the beautiful and bright makeup. In any case, I had to cover the wound on my nose and put on a good-looking mask.
Then I will give the gift and the secret to Sean.
I thought for a moment and said, “May I ask you to start this next month?”
“I don’ t mind.”
The female doctor did not seem to care.
When Ming and I got out of the hospital, he had guessed my intentions. “You are going to Sean’s wedding, are not you?”
“Yes.”
I nodded.
Ming nodded slightly and thought for a while, “Why do not you come with me? If something happens, I can take care of you a little bit.”
I looked at Ming.
Thinking of all the things Sean had done to him before, I asked, “Did Sean invite you?”
It’s not polite to ask that.
“Yes.” Ming seemed to know my worries and smiled, “I’m still his uncle. He still needs to send me an invitation formally. I didn’t plan to go, but since you want to go, I will stay with you.”
“But...”
“Don’t worry, he won't fight with me on his wedding day.”
Ming seemed to have guessed exactly what I was thinking.
On the way back, Ming asked, “Are you going home? Or where?”
I knew what he said was York No. 1.
It was all packed, but my stuff was all in Daisy’s house.
I gave him the address of Daisy’s house.
Ming took me home.
