Xiao Rui's condition suddenly deteriorated, and the rescue efforts at Dongli Hospital continued until the last moment.Lin Yi stood by and used almost all available methods. The equipment implanted before could not bring Xiao Rui back from danger.When the monitoring voice gradually became quieter, Lin Yi's whole figure seemed to be emptied out, unable to accept the result.Zhou Xiaofeng and Fang Xiaoran stood aside, no one dared to speak easily.After Lin Yi fainted, he saw his brother Lin Hai taking Xiao Rui away in his dream. His brother comforted him that he had worked hard, and Xiao Rui seemed to finally no longer have to endure the pain.

After waking up, Lin Yi still had tears in his eyes, but insisted on handling the incision left by the intubation on Xiao Rui's leg with his own hands.He spread drapes, sterilized, and sutured, each move almost stubbornly slow, and finally tied a bow.Fang Xiaoran could hardly stand looking at this scene, and Zhou Xiaofeng could only stay by his side silently.It was windy and rainy outside the GICU. When Ouyang Da arrived, she saw Zhou Xiaofeng's expression and immediately understood that Xiao Rui had left.She didn't ask any more questions, just kept the heavy feeling in her heart.In the early morning, when Lin Yi and Fang Xiaoran returned home, they both stopped in their tracks when they saw the “Peace and Joy” house sign made by Xiao Rui himself.The house was full of traces of Xiao Rui's life. Fang Xiaoran entered his room and picked up the T-shirt with the word “安” on it. Remembering that he had said he would wear it to see his father, Fang Xiaoran couldn't hold back his tears anymore.

Lin Yi saw a butterfly landing on the Bianhua flower in the house. After rushing over, he realized that it was just his illusion.Xiao Rui's departure left the house suddenly empty, and Fang Xiaoran didn't know how to pull Lin Yi out of the darkness.Outside the hospital morgue, Zhou Xiaofeng sent a message to Fang Xiaoran to confirm that she was home, and put down her phone after receiving a reply.Ouyang Da went home and hugged the sleeping forest, crying silently.Xiao Rui's illness is over, but the people left behind are trapped in place by this parting.

Fang Xiaoran tidied Xiao Rui's room bit by bit, but every time she picked up something, it felt like it was being stabbed all over again.Lin Yi didn't want others to interfere, and even wanted to carry his sorrow by himself. But the more he did this, the more breathless the silence in the room became.After Zhou Xiaofeng returned to the hospital, he handled his work as usual. When he walked to a familiar ward, he still subconsciously thought of Xiao Rui.When Ouyang Da hugged Lin Lin, she was harder than usual, as if only by confirming that the child was still around could she feel a little more at ease.After Xiao Rui left, everyone's life continued, but everyone was forced to move forward with the vacancy.

When Lin Yi returned to the hospital again, the familiar corridors and wards became unfamiliar.He can read medical records calmly, but it is difficult for him to accept the mention of Xiao Rui.Fang Xiaoran watched him lock up his emotions, wanting to get closer but afraid of pushing him further.Zhou Xiaofeng did not rush to persuade, but only stood by when needed to give Lin Yi some breathing space.Xiao Rui's death did not end on this night. It became a deeper hidden wound on Lin Yi, and it also affected his judgment when facing every young patient in the future.

Colleagues in the ward tried their best to avoid Xiao Rui's name, fearing that any words would drag Lin Yi back to the rescue.Lin Yi accepted this thoughtfulness on the surface, but felt even more lonely in his heart.He would still make ward rounds, watch films, and prepare for surgery on time, but whenever he saw young patients and their families standing together, his eyes would temporarily lose focus.Fang Xiaoran knew that he was also shaking in the loss, but he still wanted to hold Lin Yi first.Zhou Xiaofeng could only remind her not to bear all the responsibility on herself, as she would not be able to get through the road ahead alone.
