Atonement?
Anna wrinkled her eyebrows, “Atone for what?”
“Didn’t you just say that this man was bad to her before, and now he probably also realized that he was too not a thing, and his conscience was condemned, so that’s why he quietly did something to try to soothe his guilt.
If we put it more bluntly, it’s that this person wants to have everything he did in the past erased and continue to be the good guy in other people’s eyes!”
While saying that, Lynx also looked at Anna with concern, “Anna, are you familiar with this person, I mean that man, the man who makes amends after the fact is no different from the man who kneels down and apologizes after a domestic violence, in fact, he’s still a bad person at heart, he’s just trying to find himself an excuse that can atone for his sins, it’s better for you to stay away from it.”
Anna lowered her head and fell into a long silence.
Both hands, however, had clenched the sheets hard.
Self-mockery spread in her heart, and she couldn’t help but bitterly pull up the corner of her mouth.
So, Cedron was just atoning for his sins.
And probably not for the sake of atonement, but for the sake of that “dead” child!
She thought that after all these things, Cedron had suddenly changed.
It was all wishful thinking on her part!
“Anna, don’t think too much, just rest now, okay?” Lynx admonished again.
“Okay,” Anna nodded, more than a little tired in her eyes, “I’m a little tired Senior.”
“Then go to sleep, call me if there’s anything, I’ll be the first to come.” Lynx said gently.
Watching Anna close her eyes, Lynx then got up and left the hospital room.
He went to the nurse’s station.
When the nurse saw Lynx, her eyes were filled with the look of a little fan girl, “Dr. Lynx, you haven’t rested at this late hour, you’ve worked so hard!”
“How could I have worked as hard as you, this is for you to drink.” Lynx said, handing the nurse a bottle of easy-open coffee, “It’s hot, so it’s better for you girls.”
“Dr. Lynx, you’re too meticulous!” The nurse’s cheeks had turned red and her heart was pounding.
Couldn’t help but think in her heart, Dr. Lynx gave herself this cup of hot coffee, couldn’t it be … that she likes herself?
Just thinking about it, Lynx has already done next to the nurse, “I see you have been yawning, this is not good, if the patient calls you in a while how to do?”
“I … I won’t neglect my duty, just drink this cup of coffee!” The nurse rushed.
Lynx shook his head, “How can coffee take effect that fast, this way, you go wash your face, I’ll help you watch from here.”
Ah?
The nurse was a little embarrassed, “But Dr. Lynx, aren’t you already off duty, you still have to stay here …”
“It doesn’t matter, it won’t take much time, it’s more important that you don’t get criticized, go on!” Lynx replied with a smile.
The nurse was persuaded and nodded heavily towards Lynx, “I’ll be back soon then, three minutes at most!”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” Lynx nodded.
The nurse ran all the way, rushed to the restroom, and after washing herself with cold water, she didn’t forget to touch up her makeup before returning to the nurse’s station.
Because she ran too fast, she also made an effort to pick at her bangs a few times, and her voice was petulant, “Sorry Dr. Lynx, I touched up my makeup a little bit, so I’m back late.”
“That’s okay, have a good night shift then, I’m off.” Lynx stood up and walked straight out the door.
The nurse called out to him several times behind him, but froze and didn’t hear him.
Having no choice but to sit back on the bench, the nurse scratched her head in confusion and muttered to herself, “That’s strange, why does it feel like when I come back from washing my face, Dr. Lynx becomes unhappy?”
