Shao Yi squeezed the center of his brows. Although he had an infusion and medicine last night, which one was better than ever, he suddenly woke up in the morning and felt his head was still a bit heavy, but when he saw Ling Lan, he thought that he had agreed to it yesterday. The final draft was delayed because of going to the hospital, so it's no wonder Ling Lan came to the door.
Because Ling Lan usually contacts him on Q, and usually doesn't call his cell phone casually, but basically he will take the initiative to find him when there is something to do. He is usually still awake at this time. I'm quite familiar with this habit, otherwise I wouldn't have come to disturb me early in the morning.
Everyone is coming, Shao Yi is not good at driving people away, so let him go, "Come in first!"
After Ling Lan came in, he said to Ling Lan, "Sit whatever you want, I'll go wash up first."
The two have worked together for a long time, so Shao Yi treats Ling Lan as a partner, even if she comes to Shao Yi, she will not be too polite.
Ling Lan took advantage of the opportunity and sat down on the sofa in the living room, "Okay, Mr. Shao, go and do your work first, and leave me alone."
In fact, after Shao Yi opened the door and saw his clothes just now, Ling Lan knew that the time she came today was not suitable. If she was not really in a hurry, she might have gone back first with self-knowledge, and this time it was just a disturbance Mr. Shao got well once.
When Shao Yi went to the bathroom to wash, Ling Lan sat on the sofa and looked around. Although she had been here a lot, compared to the time the two had known each other, that number of times was nothing, so Ling Lan I will cherish it once I come here, and I will take a closer look at what changes here.
Looking at it, his eyes fell on the two bags of medicine on the table. Hao Ritian and Shao Yi went to clean up after taking the medicine last night, and the medicine was left on the table.
Ling Lan frowned slightly, Teacher Shao is sick
Thinking of this, he took the two bags of medicines and took a look. Through the therapeutic effects of the medicines, he could roughly calculate what kind of illness the person who was going to take these medicines had. When seeing Shao Yi's medicines, Ling Lan's expression was not bad. Normally, there are several medicines for fever, and she also took it when she had a fever.
But when she saw another bag of medicine, her expression became a little dignified, especially when she saw oryzanol in it. She carefully looked at the effect of oryzanol, and saw that this medicine mainly acts on the autonomic nervous system and secretion of the diencephalon. After improving and regulating autonomic dysfunction, endocrine balance disorders, and mental disorders, the creases between her eyebrows could kill flies.
A little flustered, she looked at the other medicines, and found that most of them were aimed at the nervous system. Ling Lan's expression was a little stunned, and her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Teacher Shao also had some problems
She has been engaged in the editing industry since she graduated, and Ling Lan has dealt with many writers. From an unknown little writer to being in charge of a big name like Shao Yi now, she has paid a lot, but because of this, she Knowing that the profession of writers looks good on the surface, but in fact it is very stressful.
Problems such as rushing to draft, caving, exhaustion of inspiration, etc. will bring great mental pressure to the author himself. Many authors will have some problems because they cannot bear this pressure, such as insomnia, dreaminess, hair loss, anxiety, etc. Wait until she knows a lot.
But Mr. Shao is a genius in her eyes. She has never seen him worry about the manuscript, and she has never seen him. The teacher will have questions that other authors will have.
But the medicines in front of me can't be faked, so Mr. Shao has been under a lot of pressure recently
Didn't hand in the manuscript yesterday not because it was delayed but because it couldn't be finished
There was a noise from the bathroom, and Ling Lan put the medicine back in place as if her hands were scalded. After she finished this action, Shao Yi also came out of the bathroom.
Ling Lan looked at Shao Yi hesitantly, wondering whether to ask tactfully or pretend nothing happened. She felt that with Shao Yi's pride, she definitely didn't want people to know that he needed to take medicine because of the pressure, but what? If you don't ask, she will be worried.
These two thoughts were intertwined in her mind, making Ling Lan very tangled.
Shao Yi didn't notice her abnormality, but lowered his voice and said to Ling Lan, "Sit down for a while, I'll make some breakfast."
After speaking, he walked towards the kitchen, and the footsteps were barely audible.
Ling Lan paused, and the worry in her eyes deepened. It's over, Teacher Shao really has a problem, and he will take the initiative to cook. God knows that we have known each other for so long. She has only seen Teacher Shao eat in hotels or take out, and cook by herself.
That's just a fantasy, right? !
Ling Lan couldn't resist standing up from the sofa this time, and walked lightly towards the kitchen, standing at the door of the kitchen and watching the man who skillfully started the fire, fried eggs, fried sausages, and cooked porridge by the way, with worried eyes A look of obsession flashed in an instant, I didn't expect this man to be so attractive in the kitchen, especially his expression was much softer than usual, it seemed too easy for people to fall into it.
At this time, Shao Yi had already fried the eggs and sausages. He scooped them out with a shovel and put them on a white porcelain plate. Then he looked towards the kitchen door. He heard footsteps just now. Attention is inseparable. After all, you have only mastered the skills for a day, and you may fail if you are not careful during the cooking process.
When Shao Yi looked over, Ling Lan's expression had returned to his usual sophistication, and he joked with a smile, "When did Teacher Shao learn to cook? I'm so surprised!"
In fact, I want to test it first, and then find an opportunity to elicit his current situation, and then find a way to guide or comfort him.
Softness flashed across Shao Yi's eyes, and when Shao Rou was almost dumbfounded, he was about to answer, but he quickly put down the shovel in his hand after hearing footsteps, and walked out of the kitchen in a few steps, looking at the expression on his face coming out of the room Hao Ritian, who was still a little dazed and his eyelids were still glued together, went up to him and said, "Ah Ning, you're awake, go wash your face and brush your teeth first, and you can eat soon."
Hao Ritian still wakes up on time at six o'clock. Firstly, it has only been a day or two. Habits cannot be changed so quickly. Secondly, without the familiar aura around him, the feeling of peace of mind is gone. When it's time to wake up naturally.
But relatively speaking, he slept very well last night. Although he was tired from exercising and took a shower the night before, he fell asleep smoothly, but the quality of sleep that night was really not good, and he kept dreaming. Anyone who sleeps and dreams knows that after waking up from non-stop dreaming, the whole body feels very heavy, and the spirit cannot be recovered at all.
But he slept heavily last night, and he woke up this morning feeling much lighter, but he was still sleepy. If he could, he wanted to continue to sleep, but unfortunately the conditions did not allow him, and his stomach growled when he smelled the aroma of food. No way, he can afford it even if he doesn't think about it.
Hearing Shao Yi say that he can eat after washing his face and brushing his teeth, he subconsciously reached out and touched his forehead, um, it's not so hot compared to yesterday, as expected, it's much better after the infusion and medicine.
Withdrawing his hand, he nodded and wanted to go to the bathroom, but saw through the gaps in his eyes that the footsteps of the woman standing at the door of the kitchen stopped, and his eyes opened suddenly.
What's the situation, there is actually a woman in Lao Gong's house
Seeing his expression, Shao Yi explained without thinking, "She is Ling Lan, my physical book editor, and she has something to do with me. You go to wash up first, and I will introduce you later."
While talking, he pushed Hao Ritian to the bathroom. This time, Hao Ritian didn't refuse, and went to the bathroom with his strength. Although he saw a woman, he believed that his husband would definitely not have anything to do with her other than work. , I'm not worried at all, it was just a sudden reaction just now.
If Hao Ritian was just surprised, then Ling Lan would be unbelievable.
If she read correctly, this man whom Mr. Shao called Aning came out of his bedroom, right
And, through Teacher Shao's reaction just now, the woman's intuition gave her a bad idea. She took a deep breath to suppress that idea, and kept telling herself that she was thinking too much.
After Shao Yi pushed Hao Ritian to the bathroom, he came back again. Ling Lan clearly saw the smile on the corners of his mouth and eyebrows, and he went back to the kitchen to continue his unfinished breakfast.
Ling Lan was in a complicated mood. She went back to the sofa in the living room and sat down silently. Her mind suddenly went blank, and she almost forgot the main purpose of her visit today.
…
Under Hao Ritian's favor, Ling Lan also ate a breakfast cooked by Shao Yi himself. In the past, she must have felt flattered, but now she feels a little overwhelmed.
In her cognition, Shao Yi is a very particular person, but there is a person in front of her who can eat at the table wearing a bathrobe, and Shao Yi will take care of his feelings from time to time, serve him porridge, and serve him. The dishes, what should be done and what should not be done, are basically done, and in her eyes, there is a taste of hospitality.
Ling Lan ate a piece of bread and a piece of fried ham like chewing wax, and couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes were glued to the two people opposite and she couldn't move away. It felt like she was sitting at the same table with them, but the atmosphere between the two It was as if she couldn't insert a third person. The feeling couldn't be described in words. In short, she felt very uncomfortable.
After Shao Yi and Hao Ritian had finished eating, Shao Yi began to introduce them.
"Ling Lan, this is Ning Liang, who lives downstairs from me, and we are friends." There is nothing more, and he had already introduced Ling Lan to Hao Ritian just now, so he didn't mean to say anything more at all.
—That's what he called introducing the two of them.
Because he didn't want to introduce a woman to Hao Ritian, let alone a capable and beautiful woman like Ling Lan, if he could, he wanted to isolate Hao Ritian, only he could see it, only he could touch it, that would be the best !
Ling Lan has already looked Hao Ritian up and down several times. In her eyes, Hao Ritian has the word "common" everywhere. She really can't imagine why Shao Yi became a good friend with him.
"Mr. Ning." Ling Lan said hello to Hao Ritian politely, but she didn't see anything on the surface.
Hao Ritian nodded, "Hi, Miss Ling."
When he was eating just now, he had a panoramic view of Ling Lan's expression changes from the corner of his eye. He was very sure that this woman had thoughts about his old Gong, but he couldn't tell more.
But at least for now, Ling Lan is still the editor of his old Gong, the two are partners, and Ling Lan hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, so he has a pretty good impression of this woman.
Looking at the time, compared with yesterday, the time is much more relaxed, so there is no need to be too eager, his eyes glanced at the medicine on the table, Hao Ritian smiled suddenly, looked at Shao Yi and said, "Let's take the medicine, we can't have a day There is no meal, and I should go to work after taking the medicine."
Although he didn't laugh at Lao Gong because he was afraid of taking medicine last night in order to save face, he really wanted to laugh in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel happy when he mentioned this matter again.
Shao Yi, "...OK."
No matter what he thought in his heart, at least he still had a natural expression on his face.
Hao Ritian raised his eyebrows, watched him go to pour water, and without a word, he took the medicine bag and prepared the medicine to be taken. He did it once last night, and it will be easier to do it today.
When Shao Yi poured the water and came over, he found that there was another small pile of medicine waiting for him. He paused imperceptibly, but still sat down without changing his expression.
Hao Ritian glanced at him with a smile from the corner of his eyes, swallowed his medicine in one gulp, then stared at Shao Yi and waited for him to finish. Now that he knew that he was afraid of taking medicine, in order to prevent him from throwing away the medicine when he was not around, he Felt like I was staring at him every meal.
—This is definitely not an episode of bad humor, well, definitely not!
Ling Lan could see clearly when Hao Ritian was removing the medicine, and the corner of her mouth could not help but a wry smile. Just now, she thought that the medicine that Shao Yi would take because of mental stress was Mr. Ning's. Not to hurt Shao Yi's self-esteem to comfort him, but it turned out that she thought too much about everything before!
Watching Shao Yi take the medicines one by one, Hao Ritian got up and carried his medicine bag, "Busy if you have something to do, I'm going back to change clothes and go to work, well, if you have time at noon If you don't, come to the store with your medicine and find me, and I will watch you take your medicine on time."
Shao Yi, "..."
What happened to the sudden feeling of guilty conscience that I hated taking medicine and was found out? !
Hao Ritian had already walked to the bathroom, and said as he walked, "I'll take the dirty clothes with me, and for the bathrobe, I'll bring it to you when I get off work at night, okay?"
Shao Yi, who was still wondering if he had been exposed, hurriedly stopped and said, "You don't need to take the dirty clothes down. Please put them there first. I'll wash them off together later. I'll send you down first."
After finishing speaking, Hao Ritian would not give Hao Ritian a chance to refuse, so he said to Ling Lan, "Wait for a while, I will come back after seeing A Ning off."
Ling Lan didn't answer in a daze, and when the door was closed with a snap, she blinked her eyes, and suddenly felt the urge to cry.
She has been secretly in love with Shao Yi for a long time, and she has always known that Shao Yi has no girlfriend, let alone a girlfriend, not even a good female friend, only a cousin named Shao Rou who occasionally comes over, and she even met several times.
Because of Shao Yi's honest attitude towards everyone, Ling Lan didn't dare to confess easily, worried that even his editor wouldn't be able to do it after the confession, so it would be better to maintain a cooperative relationship with him in this way so that he could get close to him. She was the only one, and she felt that no matter how hard-hearted a person is, his heart would be warmed by her after a long time.
Facts have proved that her choice is right. In the past few years, there have been no unfamiliar women around Shao Yi. She is the closest to him. I believe it will not be long before she has the courage to confess. Completely shattered her delusions.
She is a woman, she knows what it feels like to like someone, and she just looks at the expression of the person she likes, and the expression Shao Yi looked at Mr. Ning today shocked her, and she wanted to lie to herself It is impossible to think too much.
If it wasn't someone he liked, how could a person like Shao Yi have such an expression, and why would he cook himself just to make breakfast for him? !
Her eyes were a little red, but after hearing the doorbell, she quickly wiped the corners of her eyes to adjust her expression. It was Shao Yi who had sent the man back, still holding the bathrobe the other party was wearing just now.
"I kept you waiting for so long. I'll change clothes and we'll go upstairs to talk." Shao Yi was a little sorry for making Ling Lan wait so long, so he quickly put the bathrobe back in the bathroom after speaking, and then went back to the bathroom. The bedroom was changed into home clothes.
"Let's go. I suddenly had a fever yesterday. Aning took me to the hospital for a consultation. It was already late when we came back. We fell asleep after taking the medicine. I forgot to promise to give you the manuscript. It's my fault!" Shao Yi explained as he walked upstairs.
Ling Lan could hear his closeness to Mr. Ning from his simple explanation, got up and followed, and forced a smile, "It doesn't matter, Teacher Shao's body is more important, but in a day, we will hurry up a little Just click on the progress."
When they arrived at the studio on the second floor, Shao Yi took out the manuscripts he had written and handed them over to Ling Lan. The manuscripts were all handwritten. If you can receive it, you don’t even need to come here in person!
Shao Yi has been used to handwriting since the beginning of writing. He usually expresses the manuscript to the publishing house when it is due. Sometimes it is completed very early, but sometimes it is delayed. At this time, the editor Ling Lan It came in handy.
Ling Lan took the manuscript. This handwritten manuscript is very precious to her. Teacher Shao usually doesn't want it after finishing it, because everything he wrote is clearly recorded in his mind, and he really doesn't care about his handwritten manuscript. I feel nostalgic, so this handwritten manuscript is basically collected by her.
But this time after receiving these handwritten manuscripts, she felt unprecedentedly heavy.
Seeing Shao Yi handing over the manuscript to her, he sat down in front of the computer, turned on the computer, and said to her, "This time I'm really bothering you, but you can go there yourself, next time you can call me, I will try my best Delivered just in time."
"Okay." Ling Lan responded in a low voice.
Listening to the sound of the computer being turned on, she tightened her hands holding the manuscript, hesitated for a while, and then asked, "Ms. Shao, do you have someone you like?"
Shao Yi looked back at her in surprise, Xu Shi really wanted to share his mood at this time with others, or maybe Ling Lan was a reliable partner, he replied without much hesitation, "Yes!"
"We've known each other for a short time, but I feel like I've known him for a long time. You want to be with him all the time. Can you understand that feeling?" Shao Yi had a little joy in his expression and tone .
Today Ling Lan saw a side of Shao Yi that he hadn't shown before several times, she said, "Of course."
She felt that no one could understand that feeling better than her. She had been secretly in love with Shao Yi for more than three years. She spent the best years of her life secretly in love with her. How could she not understand it? !
Taking a deep breath, Ling Lan suddenly asked, "Can I know who Teacher Shao likes? I think there must be something special about the person Teacher Shao likes!"
Shao Yi frowned, and answered her question without hiding anything, "You've already met him."
"Yes... Mr. Ning?" Ling Lan obviously knew the answer, but she still wanted to get an affirmative answer from Shao Yi, and then let herself give up.
"Yes." Shao Yi nodded affirmatively.
This word made Ling Lan completely lose that bit of luck. Not to mention how rare it is for Shao Yi to admit it in person, based on her understanding of Shao Yi, the person he likes will definitely not change again, and neither will anyone else. When she entered his eyes again, her heart was bitter and astringent, but Ling Lan still smiled.
"Congratulations, Teacher Shao, I hope you can get together soon, but I can see that you are not together yet!" She gave her blessing in a playful tone, without showing any strangeness at all because Shao Yi likes someone of the same sex.
Shao Yi smiled more sincerely this time, "Thank you!"
"Then, teacher, you should be busy first. I'm going to take the manuscript back, so I'll leave first!" Ling Lan's expression showed no flaws.
"Okay, I won't send you off. Be careful on your own way." The person who spoke has already turned around and opened the document, and started to catch up with the progress of the work. He still has to go to find that person at noon today, even if he takes medicine together. willing.
The number of times Ling Lan came here was not infrequent, it was like this every time, so Shao Yi was not too polite.
Without responding again, Ling Lan left the studio with the manuscript in her hand, closed the door behind her, went out of the room, entered the elevator, went all the way to the garage, opened the car door, sat in the driver's seat, and put the manuscript in the passenger seat Only then did he lie on the steering wheel and weep silently.
The secret love of more than three years ended without a problem. No matter how strong a woman is, she will feel sad, but knowing that Shao Yi has someone she likes, and seeing the joyful expression on his face when he mentions the person he likes, she can't do anything. destructive behavior.
She really likes Shao Yi and hopes that he will be happy, even if that happiness is not given by her.
Everyone has a different definition of liking, maybe this is how she likes it!
Taking a few pieces of paper to wipe away her tears, Ling Lan quickly started the car and left. Although the relationship ended without a problem, the career she had worked hard for so many years could not end without a problem. The meaning of life is not all for love, she has a lot of truths I understood it years ago.
Hao Ritian didn't know that he quit automatically without being a 'rival in love'. Now he really wants to hit someone regardless of his demeanor, because the uncle and nephew who failed to intercept him yesterday came again, and the viciousness is really impressive. Want to slap it up!
