"Uh..." Xiao Liu looked around in panic, walked around the bed, walked to the far end of the bedside table and started to look through the drawers, "Where is your phone?"
Ou Renjin frowned slightly, "You just answered a call from the Finance Department using my phone."
"Oh, yes, I think I put it over there on the sofa." Xiao Liu smiled awkwardly, walked to the sofa and picked up the phone. He really couldn't think of any excuse to refuse to give him the phone at this time.
While his mind was still in a mess, his body had already handed the phone to Ou Renjin.
Ou Renjin turned on his phone. After just three or five seconds, without even dialing the number, he raised his head and asked him with a dark look in his eyes, "What happened to Ou Shaowen?"
Xiao Liu shuddered and shook his head. "No, why do you ask?"
"Give me your phone, too."
When Xiao Liu pursed his lips and handed over his phone, he felt that he would not be able to hide it any longer today.
Ou Renjin opened his WeChat and found the chat history between him and Ou Shaowen.
The first few sentences were Xiao Liu’s notification that he was in the hospital, followed by Ou Shaowen’s reply that he still had work to do and that although he was very anxious, he couldn’t rush over.
There was indeed a message sent this morning, asking about his health.
Xiao Liu stood aside, glancing at his mobile phone screen, his heart pounding.
"I'll ask you again, what happened to Ou Shaowen?" Ou Renjin threw both phones on the bed and held the edge of the bed tightly with one hand. "You guys who have only met him a few times, how can you be so confident that you can imitate his tone and send WeChat messages and still think you can fool me?"
"Boss Ou, I..."
"The work can't be canceled?" He curled his lips and smiled uninterestingly, "I can accept that he didn't want to break the appointment after doing half of the work, but it's only for that day. On the next day, there won't be any work that hasn't started that can't be canceled."
After saying this, he raised his eyes and stared at Xiao Liu silently. The overwhelming sense of oppression made Liu Xiaojun dare not even look him in the eye.
"You just had heart surgery, so you can't have too much emotional fluctuations, so I..."
He was stuck and couldn't continue.
Ou Renjin fell silent. He did not ask Xiao Liu what happened to Ou Shaowen. He said nothing and remained silent.
He didn't just notice something was wrong today. A long time ago, when Xiao Liu came back to the room and said in a panic that he had just finished a phone call with Ou Shaowen, he had a vague feeling that something must have happened that he couldn't accept.
At that time, he knew that with Ou Shaowen's personality, no matter what the reason was, he would never say that he would be delayed for half a week after knowing that he had undergone heart surgery.
He thought of countless reasons for him in his mind, but in the end he was sure that none of the reasons were valid.
There was only one possibility, that was that he really... couldn't appear in front of him.
"Call Doctor Chen in," he said calmly, his eyes dull, "and tell him that my heart seems to be feeling unwell."
"Ah, I, I, I'll go call him right away." Xiao Liu suddenly came to his senses, turned around and rushed out. Soon, he ran back pulling Chen Sui. Chen Sui's stethoscope was still tangled together, so he untied it hurriedly and came over to listen to his heartbeat.
Ou Renjin sat there and cooperated while he listened.
"The heart rate is normal. Can you tell me more specifically where you feel uncomfortable and what kind of discomfort is it?"
"Xiao Liu," he did not answer Dr. Chen's question first, but said to Xiao Liu beside him, "You go out first. No matter where you go, come back in two hours."
"Oh, okay." Xiao Liu glanced at the two of them, picked up his mobile phone from the bed, left the room, and finally left this suffocating occasion.
He glanced at the time on his phone and stood outside the door in a daze. He felt like a huge stone was blocking his heart, feeling depressed and uncomfortable.
He was already feeling so miserable, and he really couldn't imagine how Mr. Ou felt at this moment.
"Can I meet the family of the heart donor?" In the room, Ou Renjin had not yet broken down as he had imagined. He just looked at Dr. Chen expressionlessly with a sinister look on his face. "This person died suddenly in a car accident. He must have family, right?"
Doctor Chen froze in his tracks. The moment he heard this, he felt cold all over. He knew that Ou Renjin might have guessed the truth. They didn't even need to carry out the plan that Ou Shaowen was injured in a car accident and was in the hospital.
If I had known this would happen, there was no way I could have hidden it from him.
He did not try to make up more lies to cover up the truth. He just tried to appear calmer, just like he had rehearsed many times, and said with sorrow: "In fact, the person who had a car accident and donated his heart to you... was Ou Shaowen."
He did not give Ou Renjin a chance to interrupt, and spoke faster unconsciously, "The afternoon you came for the physical examination, before that, he had just been in a car accident and was sent to us for rescue. I'm sorry, the iron piece directly pierced his aorta, and he lost a lot of blood. He couldn't be rescued... The last thing he said was that he must donate his heart to you..."
Ou Renjin laughed softly, without shedding tears, and he didn't look broken at all. "So what's your plan now?"
His chest rose and fell gently, like a volcano about to erupt, showing its final calm. "You know I won't accept this, so you just make it a done deal, and then use the last wish of the deceased to kidnap me? You have his heart in your body. Even if it's to live up to his wish before he died that you could live, and live up to the heart he gave you, you have to live well and treat his heart as the continuation of his life? Something like this?"
"If you dare tell me again that he died in a car accident," Ou Renjin raised his eyes and looked straight into his eyes, "I will immediately dig my heart out again. It's not easy to put it in, but it's much easier to dig it out. You don't have to be a doctor to do it, right?"
His expression was extremely strange at this moment. "I hate it most when people force things on me that I don't want. If I say I don't want it, then I don't want it. I won't take it no matter what."
"Ou Renjin!" Chen Sui was in a panic. He couldn't even tell whether Ou Renjin was lying to him or was serious. At the same time, he felt that if it were him, he might really do such a thing.
He didn't dare take this as a threat.
"So," Ou Renjin said hoarsely, "you still insist that the heart in my body is really Ou Shaowen's, right?"
"It is indeed his," Chen Sui took a deep breath, "but he is not dead yet."
She told more lies, trying to appear calmer, and said with sorrow, as if she had rehearsed many times, "In fact, the person who had a car accident and donated his heart to you... was Ou Shaowen."
He did not give Ou Renjin a chance to interrupt, and spoke faster unconsciously, "The afternoon you came for the physical examination, before that, he had just been in a car accident and was sent to us for rescue. I'm sorry, the iron piece directly pierced his aorta, and he lost a lot of blood. He couldn't be rescued... The last thing he said was that he must donate his heart to you..."
Ou Renjin laughed softly, without shedding tears, and he didn't look broken at all. "So what's your plan now?"
His chest rose and fell gently, like a volcano about to erupt, showing its final calm. "You know I won't accept this, so you just make it a done deal, and then use the last wish of the deceased to kidnap me? You have his heart in your body. Even if it's to live up to his wish before he died that you could live, and live up to the heart he gave you, you have to live well and treat his heart as the continuation of his life? Something like this?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm not someone who would cooperate with this kind of drama."
"If you dare tell me again that he died in a car accident," Ou Renjin raised his eyes and looked straight into his eyes, "I will immediately dig my heart out again. It's not easy to put it in, but it's much easier to dig it out. You don't have to be a doctor to do it, right?"
His expression was extremely strange at this moment. "I hate it most when people force things on me that I don't want. If I say I don't want it, then I don't want it. I won't take it no matter what."
"Ou Renjin!" Chen Sui was in a panic. He couldn't even tell whether Ou Renjin was lying to him or was serious. At the same time, he felt that if it were him, he might really do such a thing.
He didn't dare take this as a threat.
"Can you please don't get excited first? Think about Ou Shaowen. He has given so much for you. He would be so pitiful if he knew that you let him down in the end." His eyes were red, and thinking about Ou Shaowen's current appearance as he saw on the monitor, he felt angry and sad.
"So," Ou Renjin said hoarsely, "you still insist that the heart in my body is really Ou Shaowen's, right?"
"It is indeed his," Chen Sui took a deep breath, "but he is not dead yet."
