Looking at the rain outside the window, Xia Chengtian felt a little complicated.
He has never liked the rain very much. When his wife was buried in this small town, it also rained heavily.
"Master." At this time, there was a knock on the door and Jin Yuan's voice: "Lunch is ready."
"Oh..." Xia Chengtian walked to the door, opened it, and asked, "Is the second young master of the Huo family alright?"
"Well... I just have a low-grade fever. I took some medicine and I'm asleep now."
"That's good."
Xia Chengtian and Huo Tianheng had a good personal relationship, he had already contacted Huo Tianheng, and said that after Huo Jianan recovered, he would send him back. Huo Tianheng originally wanted to send someone to pick up his son himself, but Xia Chengtian insisted that as a doctor, he hoped that he would recover in his own clinic before sending him back.
Today was supposed to be a day off for the clinic. However, there is usually a doctor on duty, and Jin Yuan is the doctor on duty today. Besides, there is also a nurse, Nan Xiaoyu. As for the cooking, Charlene is in charge. She has always been very experienced in cooking.
"Meow… "
Charlene sprinkled cat food on the plate, and the cat immediately came up to eat. And Xia Chengtian looked at this scene and said: "Cats cannot be kept in the clinic, you can take them home and raise them."
"Got it... Dad..."
At this time, the door of the consulting room on the side opened, and Huo Jianan came out.
"Sorry..." Huo Jianan showed a blushed expression, and said to Xia Chengtian: "Doctor Xia, I'm sorry to trouble you. The medicine money..."
His voice is obviously a little hoarse, and it's obviously not recovered yet.
"Go back and rest." Xia Chengtian walked up, touched his forehead, and said, "It's still a little hot."
Nurse Nan Xiaoyu who was sitting next to Charlene immediately stood up, smiled and said to Huo Jianan: "Do you remember me? Huo Jianan?"
Huo Jianan was taken aback, and took a closer look at Nan Xiaoyu, before saying after a long time: "Are you... Nan Xiaoyu?"
"Well...you remember me so well!" Nan Xiaoyu smiled and said: "I was the cheerleader of your football team back then, and later you said you were going to go to a medical university, so I wanted to go along with you..."
Then she said with a little embarrassment: "In the end I didn't become a doctor, but a nurse..."
Jin Yuan also said hello and said, "Huo Jianan, I'm Jin Yuan... Back then I was in the same class as you..."
"Well... I still remember you..." That's what he said, but Huo Jianan's impression was not very deep anymore. At that time, all he could think about was exams, exams, exams.
Xia's clinic is not big, and there are only a few doctors, mainly because those medical students are more willing to work in large private hospitals. Only a small number of people come to work in clinics in such small towns.
"Let me serve you some porridge."
Huo Jianan said; 'Just...give me a cup of hot water. "
Charlene heard Huo Jianan's voice, and it seemed that her hoarseness was getting worse. She poured a cup of hot water for Huo Jianan, and said, "Hurry up and go back and have a rest."
"Hmm..." Huo Jianan reluctantly nodded, took the glass of water, and took a sip.
After he returned to the room, Charlene returned to the dining table.
"Sister Xia Lin," the nurse Nan Xiaoyu said with a smile, "You like the second young master of the Huo family, right?"
"You, what nonsense are you talking about..." Charlene had just picked up her chopsticks, and when she heard Nan Xiaoyu's words, she almost dropped the chopsticks on the ground, "I..."
"The genes of the Huo family seem to be quite good. Huo Jialin, the eldest son of the Huo family, used to watch Huo Jianan's games when he played football. He is really not ordinary handsome."
"You seemed to be saying just now..." At this moment, Jin Yuan seemed to have thought of something, and said to Nan Xiaoyu, "You just said that you planned to go to medical university because of Huo Jianan? You like him too?"
"Well...that's all in the past." Nan Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "Sister Xia Lin, if you want to chase him, you can also. I have no objection."
"I don't have that idea..."
"But I think you're blushing a bit...haha..."
Charlene gave a wry smile and said, "Where is such a thing..."
Huo Jianan...
She couldn't help but glance back, it's been so long since I saw Huo Jianan now, the melancholy temperament on Huo Jianan's body made her feel a little bit moved again, the indistinct feelings from when she was young came back to her heart .
"I... wait for him to recover, and I'll send him back."
If you go back... you might meet Jialan. After so many years, she and Jialan never met again.
Just thinking of this, the door of the clinic opened, and then a woman in purple walked in holding an umbrella.
"Ja... Jialan???"
Charlene stood up immediately, looking at Huo Jialan whose hair was almost completely wet. Although she was carrying an umbrella, it was raining heavily and the wind was strong, so the umbrella might have been blown off several times on the road.
"Miss Huo San..." Xia Chengtian quickly stood up and said, "Your brother is resting inside now. If you haven't eaten yet, come and eat together."
"I'm sorry, Dr. Xia. I'm worried about my second brother, so I'll take a look." Huo Jialan put away her umbrella, and at this moment, her gaze also turned to Xia Lin. For more than ten years after graduating from high school, the two have hardly met each other. Charlene didn't come when she got married.
"I'll... go see him first."
"Okay, he's in this room."
Huo Jialan walked over slowly. When she walked past Charlene, the eyes of the two girls were quite unnatural.
Charlene suddenly felt a little stuck in her heart. However, she didn't know what to say. Back then, Jialan and Rongrong were her best friends, she never expected that they would become like this now.
Jin Yuan and Nan Xiaoyu looked at Xia Lin's expression. They also generally knew something about the situation back then, so they didn't say much at this time.
After a while, Huo Jialan came out and said, "I'll wait here until my second brother recovers."
"Jialan." At this time, Charlene stood up and looked at Huo Jialan: "You're recent, are you okay?"
"Well... still... it's okay."
In Charlene's memory, Huo Jialan was always in good spirits when she was a student, but the way she feels about her now, she really can't give her the feeling of "not bad". Or should I say, she feels to herself now, like a patient with severe depression. The few meetings in the past ten years have always been like this. Obviously, these years, Jialan's life has not been very good.
suddenly…
Thunder and lightning flashed past, and the room actually had a power outage!
"What's going on?" Charlene was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, she heard a "bang"!
"Jin Yuan, go and check the switch." At this moment, Charlene only heard her father's voice: "Charlene, go to the kitchen to find candles."
"okay, I get it."
"Charlene, I'll go with you." Jialan's voice came from the darkness.
"okay… "
Feeling in the dark, Charlene found the kitchen and opened the kitchen door. She rummaged through the drawers, but for a moment she couldn't remember where the candle was.
"Jialan, you...help me find it..."
She looked back at Jialan in the darkness and said.
So, Jialan was beside her to help rummage through the drawers.
"Candles... where are the candles..."
Charlene couldn't help but hit her head. It's been a long time since she used candles, and she doesn't even remember.
"That... Jialan, look through the drawer over there..."
Having said that, she gave a wry smile. It's really funny, after graduation, I haven't seen Rongrong and Jialan for so many years, I didn't expect that the two girls came here in just two days.
At this time, she finally found a candle and a matchbox in the bottom drawer.
"I finally found it... I found it, Jialan!"
Then she pushed open the kitchen door, went back into the hall in the dark, and said, "The candle is found..."
After she lit the candle, Jin Yuan said to her: "I checked the switch. But there is nothing unusual."
"Really?" She looked at Jia Lan at the side and said, "Jia Lan, please sit down, thank you just now for accompanying me to find candles."
She also felt bitter when she said this, after all... now and Jialan, it has reached the point where they need to say "thank you".
"You don't need to say thank you... and it was dark just now, I didn't keep up with you, so I found the toilet..."
For a while, the room was silent.
"You said you... didn't go to the kitchen with me?" Charlene looked around in surprise and asked, "Who went to the kitchen with me just now?"
However, everyone shook their heads.
So... the guy she was in the kitchen with just now...
who is it? ?
