"Where to put it?"
Ren Xueyuan held a black umbrella, raised his eyes, and looked at Xun Yuming.
Zhuang Yi gestured towards the balcony with his right index finger, and said, "Mr. Ren doesn't need to hang the umbrella, he will get wet again when he goes out."
"I won't go out for a while." Ren Xueyuan opened the umbrella and put it on the tiled floor of the balcony to dry, then took out four or five melamine lunch boxes from a paper bag he brought, and placed them on the kitchen bar one by one like a picnic On the next day, he smiled and asked Xun Yuming: "Doctor Xun promised me dinner, can't I shirk it now?"
Seeing this, Zhuang Yi tugged at the neckline that was about to suffocate, and also looked at Xun Yuming.
Xun Yuming: "..."
"I've eaten it, and I can't eat too much during the recovery period." He put his hands in the pockets of his pajamas, and stuck between the two, in a dilemma, "That... Zhuang Yi hasn't eaten yet, why don't you two eat it together?"
Ren Xueyuan looked at Zhuang Yi, smiled kindly, raised his eyebrows and said: "Yes, I am Xiaozhuang's elder, so it's not right to invite my nephew to dinner."
Zhuang Yi clenched a fist at his side, buried the other in his suit trousers pocket, and held the car keys inside. He wanted to leave immediately, but he didn't want to leave such a rainy night to Ren Xueyuan and Xun Yuming to share. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Uncle Ren."
Xun Yuming fled away, using an excuse to move a chair in the guest room, clutching his waist and abdomen and staggeringly fled inward. Zhuang Yi grabbed him, rolled up his shirt sleeves, took out two high chairs, placed them in front of the bar, wiped them with a paper towel, and said, "Sorry, I can't take them anymore, I have a handicap."
"..." Ren Xueyuan sneered, and went to move it by himself.
Zhuang Yi helped Xun Yuming to the chair, and asked, "Do you want to eat more?"
"I can't eat it." Xun Yuming shook his head, raised his chin slightly, and motioned for him to help take down the water glass.
Seeing that there was only half a glass of cold water left in it, Zhuang Yi went to mix some hot water, threw in a slice of lemon, and inserted a straw for him.
"Thank you." Xun Yuming took it, turned his head and said to Ren Xueyuan who came out of the guest room: "Mr. Ren, please sit by yourself, there is nothing to entertain you at home."
Ren Xueyuan wiped the chair and put it down, looked at Zhuang Yi, then looked down at his own chair, without making a sound. Xun Yuming observed his words and expressions, and asked, "What's the matter, are you not used to sitting?"
"No." Ren Xueyuan smiled, opened the lunch box, and handed Zhuang Yi a pair of chopsticks.
Zhuang Yi gave him a condescending look, took the chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Uncle Ren."
Xun Yuming frowned, and looked suspiciously at the ground, only to see that Ren Xueyuan's chair was a whole section shorter than Zhuang Yi's, and one of his three legs was lame, sitting up wobbly, touching the ground thump thump.
The two were originally about the same height, but now Zhuang Yi looked much taller than Ren Xueyuan. He picked up a chopstick of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum in a refreshed manner, and asked, "How about some more vegetables?"
Xun Yuming waved his hands helplessly, "Don't eat."
Ren Xueyuan didn't say anything, there were three sets of chairs in the room, when he entered, only one lame one was left, and there was a small stool, which was even shorter. He ate his meal calmly, occasionally glanced at Xun Yuming, and said softly: "Last time I waited for you at the door of the pineapple restaurant for more than three hours, and Doctor Xun refused to honor you."
He seemed to be acting like a baby, and didn't ask him why he didn't go, but only with a touch of resentment.
Xun Yuming swallowed a mouthful of lemonade and said, "Uh... I had something to do last night, so I forgot to inform you, sorry."
"It's okay." He smiled, turning a blind eye to Zhuang Yi.
"Uncle Ren made an appointment to find a doctor, is there anything important to discuss?" Zhuang Yiqing took a sip of water from his cup and looked at him with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Ren Xueyuan looked back, and smiled politely without showing any weakness: "Forgive me for commercial secrets."
"That's it." Zhuang Yi glanced at Xun Yuming who was drinking water with his head buried in concentration, and said again: "If it's about laboratory funding, I don't think Uncle Ren will waste any more time, he has clearly transferred the patent right to me , the lab’s first round of funding has now arrived.”
He used to call Xun Yuming "Doctor Xun" in front of people, but now he deliberately bites the word "Mingming", like a feline that only uses scent to mark its territory.
Ren Xueyuan was startled, nodded, and said, "Congratulations then, Dr. Xun is a gold mine, very valuable to dig."
Zhuang Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, and said half seriously and half jokingly: "I'm here to plant trees, not to mine."
When Xun Yuming heard the words, his heart moved, and he turned to look at him. Their eyes met, and soon they separated. Zhuang Yi thought to himself, the biggest tree is you, Lin Haixueyuan, it is simply a big forest for one person, an eyesore.
Ren Xueyuan didn't say a word, took two mouthfuls of food, and said to Xun Yuming: "Doctor Xun, I didn't finish this meal today, you still owe me a meal. Don't worry, I will never let you go out with me this time." No matter how shocking your stomach bleeding is."
"..."
Why do you always invite people to eat, when other people's families are too poor to afford it
Zhuang Yi remained silent, his face dripping with gloom, and he watched Xun Yuming from the corner of his eye. The latter gulped down two sips of water and said, "Well...then Mr. Ren will come to the hospital some other day, and I'll treat you to eat. It's my apology."
After all, he released other people's pigeons and made people wait for three hours in vain, Xun Yuming felt a little sorry.
Zhuang Yi recalled the last time he said he would invite himself to dinner, but in the end he just went to the cafeteria. He curled his lips and said, "Uncle Ren, is your company still focusing on drug development? Have you ever been involved in medical technology research?"
Ren Xueyuan took out a tissue, wiped his mouth, and replied, "This... it hasn't been involved in this business yet, but it's not impossible in the future."
Zhuang Yi nodded and said: "The market of medical technology research is a tough one, and it is too difficult to conquer it, and it will take a lot of time. Oh, by the way, Uncle Ren will retire soon, right?"
"Cough-cough cough!"
Hearing this, Xun Yuming choked on the trachea with a sip of water, and coughed with a red face. Zhuang Yi hurriedly put down his cup to help him knock his back, his expression was unpredictable, as if he was quite dissatisfied with his performance.
Ren Xueyuan's face turns blue and turns white. After all, he is an old fritters who have been up and down in the mall for many years. In the end, he just smiled and said: "I think, but unfortunately, the younger generations are not up to par. There is no one who can replace me. I can only suffer two more." Years of hard work."
"Yes." Zhuang Yi rubbed Xun Yuming's back, but turned his face to Ren Xueyuan, "As you get older, you need to be more aware of crisis."
He usually dislikes others using age to attack a person, and thinks it is the most base and despicable way. Aging is the inevitable end of human beings. The today of others you laugh at is the tomorrow of yourself that you have to face. But at the moment, he doesn't care about that much anymore, this person in front of him is really difficult to deal with.
Ren Xueyuan hummed, seemingly unwilling to fight with him on this topic, and asked Xun Yuming: "Does the area where Doctor Xun lives is going to be demolished? I have an empty house by the Moon Lake, facing the mountain. The scenery is good, the air is good, and the surrounding traffic is convenient, anyway, it is empty, why don't Dr. Xun move there for a temporary stay?"
Xun Yuming had a sore throat, cleared his throat, and declined politely: "No need, I can find a place to live by myself."
Zhuang Yi's face darkened, and he said: "That's so embarrassing, Uncle Ren is too generous. However, Moon Lake is not close to the hospital, right? It takes two hours to drive in the morning and evening rush hours. Obviously time is tight, so I'm afraid it's not suitable to live there."
As he said that, he looked at Ren Xueyuan with a smile on his face, but Ren Xueyuan was also looking at him.
"I...well, I'm going to the bathroom." Xun Yuming hurried away.
A meal was full of swords and swords, and the two of them came and went, fighting each other, and Xun Yuming was caught in the middle so that it was difficult. After finally holding back in the bathroom until Ren Xueyuan said goodbye, he finally lay down on the mattress and breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhuang Yi cleaned up the table, turned on the tap, squeezed a little hand sanitizer into his palm, stared at the sink, and rubbed his hands slowly. Xun Yuming lay opposite, under invisible pressure, swallowed his saliva, and said: "I didn't ask him to come here."
Besides, he said: "Didn't you tell me that night that he was busy and couldn't come? Why did I break the appointment again. "
Zhuang Yi snorted, and said with a sneer, "I'm doing him a favor. If I hadn't called you away, where would he have the opportunity to play a bitter scene?"
Xun Yuming curled his lips, and muttered: "It's not me who recruited you, why are you acting weird."
After washing his hands, Zhuang Yi came over with a water glass and his medicine, put his long legs on the floor, and sat beside him: "You don't know why I am so yin and yang?"
"I..." Xun Yuming took the medicine and put it in his mouth, and swallowed it with a gulp of water, "How do I know?"
Of course he knew, he knew very well, but he had to be stupid, he had to lie, he had to play a role that he hated to the core.
Seeing his appearance, Zhuang Yi couldn't help feeling angry, and clamped his chin, forcing him to look at him: "You don't know?"
His tone was soft and indifferent, as if he could fly away with the wind, but the pronunciation of his words was extremely heavy, with a hint of danger.
Xun Yuming couldn't help his heartbeat speeding up, and looked at him anxiously, there were countless secrets in those melancholy eyes, like handfuls of stars sprinkled into the vast Milky Way, the halos shone, speckled, illuminating the invisible darkness But there are many lies lying around.
Zhuang Yi leaned down, face to face with him, almost skin-to-skin, his low and deep voice came out of his throat, with a touch of shame and anger: "You little liar!"
Xun Yuming held his breath and held his voice, not daring to breathe, Zhuang Yi's slightly heavy panting hit his face like gentle kisses, and the hairs all over his body stood up quietly. Zhuang Yi looked down at him, the unwillingness, resentment, grievance and the little bit of helplessness in his eyes fell into his eyes.
Zhuang Yi got closer and closer, the bridges of the two noses overlapped, time and space expanded infinitely at this moment, and then shrunk sharply, he pressed his forehead against his, and said, "It's not hot."
Xun Yuming pinched the skin on the side of his thigh and twisted it one after another, and finally he let it go. He couldn't help breathing shortness of breath, blushing and heartbeat, and couldn't calm down for a while.
Sure enough, he was still angry, but his anger was so gentle, like a knife wrapped in cotton wool, and glass mixed with icing sugar, which made people love and fear, and couldn't stop it.
Zhuang Yi put the water glass back into his hand and said, "I'm leaving."
"Wait!" Xun Yuming shook his hand, and the water splashed all over his pillow.
Zhuang Yi picked up his suit jacket, put his right hand back on his shoulder, put his left hand in his pocket, his ring finger was beating restlessly, "What else?"
"I... about the house." Xun Yuming didn't know why he had to explain to him, but he was doing it, and before he could react, the words slipped out, "I won't live in his house."
"Then where do you plan to live?" Zhuang Yi asked back, it won't be long to live here.
Xun Yuming said, "I'm going to live at Grandpa's house."
Zhuang Yi wanted to say something, but was choked back by his words, so he could only nod his head: "Well, it's not far there."
"You..." Xun Yuming paused, "Go back quickly, it's getting late, it's raining and the road is slippery."
Zhuang Yi hesitated to leave, so he drove him away; but Zhuang Yi really wanted to leave, but he felt a sense of loss in his heart. Remembering that he didn't have an umbrella, Xun Yuming got up in a hurry, covered his sore wound, and ran into the bedroom to get him a flowered umbrella, "Wait, wait, bring this!"
He had already walked out of the door, Xun Yuming chased after him, Zhuang Yi smiled softly: "No need. Remember to eat more apples and supplement vitamins."
Xun Yuming agreed and watched him go downstairs.
Zhuang Yi walked to the corner, raised his hand backwards, and said loudly: "Remember to eat the red ones!" The man had disappeared outside the unit door.
Xun Yuming clicked on his WeChat avatar, smiled at the red snake fruit, "Of course the red ones are eaten."
The author has something to say: Apple will appear in the next chapter.
