"You were beaten?"
Going to work on Monday morning, the first thing Cen Ji said when he saw Xun Yuming was to ask him what happened.
Xun Yuming held the bruise on the orbital bone, and said, "I accidentally smashed it while I was sleeping."
"Can you blacken your eye sockets while sleeping?" Xiao Zhou clung to a lollipop, standing in front of him like a hill, "You're too dishonest when you sleep."
"It's not me." Xun Yuming took out a petri dish from the aseptic box, sliced the brain tissue into it, and while pulling the microscope, explained: "It's all because of Zhuang Yi's dishonesty that the phone fell off."
If it wasn't for Zhuang Yi who was arguing with him and insisting on hugging him, how could such a catastrophe happen.
A group of people were silent for three seconds, and exchanged glances with each other: "...it's too intense!"
Cen Ji said again: "Teacher... I heard that you and Dr. Liu were fighting for the case?" He had the best news, and the others came over to ask what was going on before they heard the news.
"When did I compete with him for the case?" Xun Yuming frowned, and looked up at him, "Who did you listen to?"
"That's what Sun Zhuo and Xiao Zhao said." As if someone was eavesdropping, Cen Ji lowered his voice and whispered, "I heard that the patient with intermittent amnesia in our department didn't know how to find you in private. Now the attending doctor has been replaced by you."
Xun Yuming suddenly realized that when he met the patient's family members earlier, he did hear that Dr. Liu performed the operation before, but the family members were not satisfied.
"Liu Hongxiang, he looks smiling, but he's not really easy to mess with." Cen Ji reminded him, "If he can't be cured, there's no need to offend him."
"I know it in my heart." Xun Yuming nodded, "I'll talk to him later."
He didn't expect that the patient asked to change doctors so quickly, and he was a little caught off guard.
Taking advantage of the break at noon, Xun Yuming went to the office of the administrative building. When he walked to the door, he met an uninvited visitor. When the other person saw him, he came up and smiled: "Dr. Can't you see me?"
Ren Xueyuan's hair was shorter than when we met last time, and he looked younger and energetic. He was wearing a black jacket and looked quite casual. Xun Yuming smiled politely and said, "I've moved, doesn't Mr. Ren know? Come in and sit?"
He said, "Come in and sit?"
Not "Come in and sit."
"It's inconvenient because there are so many people inside, do you have time to find a doctor?" Ren Xueyuan looked at his left wrist, it was just ten past twelve, "How about having a meal together?"
The last meeting was very rude, and the last time he was let go, Xun Yuming also felt sorry, so he had to agree: "Okay, but the time can't be too long."
Surgery in the afternoon.
Ren Xueyuan walked to the elevator side by side with him, said with a slight smile, "I know a place that eats pork belly in clear soup, not far from here. You had an operation some time ago, how about some light food?"
"Yes." Xun Yuming did not ask.
The two went to the parking lot to pick up the car, went out from the back door of the hospital, turned two streets, and entered a small but very quiet restaurant. The atmosphere in the store is very laid-back, the chef is busy in the middle of the living room, everything is transparent and visible.
Ren Xueyuan ordered the signature Beef Brisket Noodles in Clear Soup and asked Xun Yuming to order.
"I want the same one." Xun Yuming picked up the phone and saw an unread message.
Zhuang Yi: "Are you busy? What do you want for lunch?"
Since he returned to work, he has been going to Zhuang Yi's consulting room for lunch, and every drink and meal is a nutritious meal specially delivered by the Bay Store. Zhuang Yi was terrified by Director Zhan's words, fearing that if he didn't pay attention, he would really develop stomach cancer in the future, so he urged him to eat on time every day and never missed a single meal.
Xun Yuming bowed his head and replied to him: "Eat out with Ren Xueyuan to eat pork belly in clear soup, it won't be past noon."
I didn't want to talk about who I was having dinner with, but I was worried that Zhuang Yi would be unhappy if he knew that he had already hidden a huge matter from him. If he could tell other trivial things, he should try his best to be honest, not to mention that there was nothing shameful about it.
"Is it Zhuang Yi?" The waiter came to serve the food, Ren Xueyuan gave him the prepared one, but he didn't eat it himself.
"Yeah." Xun Yuming smiled.
This person looked like a veteran in Fengyue Field, and he was considerate of every little thing, but he didn't give people any pressure. Unlike the hairy boy, if he performs something in front of you, or does something for you, he must look at you with starry eyes, waiting for your praise, or afraid that you will not see it, every pore is screaming remind you.
It's just too smooth and meticulous, but it loses the value of sincerity and enthusiasm. His every action, every sweet word has been meticulously calculated. You also know that these things will not come out of thin air. Behind all the "just right", there must be countless shadows of his predecessors. After countless trials and errors and quarrels, he has been honed to be so seasoned today.
Xun Yuming just found it boring.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Zhuang Yi also knows how to take care of others like Ren Xueyuan, but the difference is that every bit of Zhuang Yi's thoughtfulness comes from the heart, gentleness is his nature, a gentleman is his background, no need to deliberately, True passion.
When we first had an affair with him, Xun Yuming was not sure about his intentions, and was also saddened, thinking that his kindness to himself was the same as that to others, not out of liking, but out of love, he was just too polite That's all.
However, after getting in touch for a long time, Xun Yuming knew it was not the case. Zhuang Yi's upbringing was rooted in his bones and blood. His politeness to others was always polite and alienated. Anyone can let him take care of him willingly for the rest of his life.
In the final analysis, Xun Yuming is just a person with double standards, Zhuang Yi is considerate to him and he feels sincere, Ren Xueyuan is considerate to him and he feels sophisticated. But then again, who can avoid double standards when facing someone they like
Love is inherently unfair.
"You moved to live with him?" Ren Xueyuan asked again.
"Well, stay here for a while." Zhuang Yi made eight-treasure porridge for him in the morning according to the recipe. Xun Yuming was full and not hungry at the moment. He took two mouthfuls of beef brisket powder and slowly drank the soup with a spoon.
Seeing that he had no appetite, Ren Xueyuan ordered another appetizing cup of red bean paste with tangerine peel for him, "I thought you had already broken up with him."
"It's a breakup." Xun Yuming looked up at him, and didn't ask him how he knew about himself and Zhuang Yi. If someone like him, there must be a way. "I don't plan on reconciling with him, but I won't be in a relationship with anyone in the future."
Please also retreat in spite of difficulties.
he thought.
"You're only in your twenties and less than thirty." Ren Xueyuan smiled, without any embarrassment, "It's too early to say that."
"Early?" Xun Yuming twitched the corners of his mouth, "If I can live to be fifty years old, more than half of it has already passed, and the next half should be able to be asserted."
What's more, even if he could live a hundred years, it would be meaningless without Zhuang Yi.
"Is fifty years old too conservative?" Ren Xueyuan asked with a smile, "Medical science is so advanced now, and you are one of the best doctors yourself, so you underestimate your own lifespan."
Xun Yuming took a sip of the sweet red bean paste, smiled wryly and said, "I don't think I should live too long."
Fifty years old is the limit he gave himself.
"Nonsense." Ren Xueyuan only thought that he was a young man talking nonsense, and didn't go into it. He sighed and said, "So Doctor Xun really doesn't plan to consider me?"
Every time we met, his attitude was written as rejection, "Could Zhuang Yi be that good?"
"It's that good." Xun Yuming's tone was so light that it was hard to detect, but Ren Xueyuan heard an unprecedented sense of determination.
"Okay then." He wiped the corners of his mouth, clasped his hands on the edge of the table, and said with a smile, "I won't force you, but I want you to think about one thing, can you promise me?"
"What's the matter?" It seemed that once everyone was rejected, they all had bargaining chips, and Xun Yuming had no choice but to do so.
Ren Xueyuan said seriously: "You have to promise me to keep it a secret, even Zhuang Yi can't tell."
"This..." Xun Yuming didn't want to keep any other secrets from Zhuang Yi, "I can't guarantee it, is it about him?"
"Oh no." Ren Xueyuan shook his head, "Actually, it's nothing to say, but it involves commercial secrets, so it can't be disclosed."
Xun Yuming thought for a while, then nodded and said: "I can only promise you, I won't tell Zhuang Yi, but if he asks me, I won't lie to him."
"...Okay." Ren Xueyuan hesitated for a while, not wanting to give up the opportunity, but finally compromised, "I want you to lead a scientific research project team in our company. Medical research is an area that our company has always wanted to do but didn't do. The future will definitely It is also at the forefront, and I need an authoritative expert to sit in, otherwise it will be too difficult to open the market.”
Xun Yuming was taken aback when he heard the words, and said in astonishment: "So you approached me because you wanted to poach me?"
Co-authoring Zhuang Yi was jealous for nothing, and it was Lao Chen who really should have a sense of crisis.
Ren Xueyuan tilted his head, with an innocent expression on his face: "If you are willing to follow me now, I will still be very happy. But... business is business, you are right, it is mainly for poaching."
"You are really..." Xun Yuming wanted to say that he was treacherous and cunning, but he held back and didn't say anything. Seeing that it was getting late, he got up and said, "I'll go back and think about it, and I'll give you an answer."
"Think carefully, the price I offered is not low." Ren Xueyuan went out with him, intending to send him back to the hospital.
A black suv just happened to come to the door, Zhuang Yi jumped out of the car and smiled at him: "Mr. Ren is also here, what a coincidence."
The last two words are extremely heavy.
Xun Yuming knew why and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Let's have lunch." Zhuang Yi's expression remained the same, but Xun Yuming knew him best, and he clearly saw that the corners of his jaw were tightened, so he must have not lost his temper.
"Then hurry up, the best beef brisket is sold out at this time." Ren Xueyuan turned his head and smiled ambiguously at Xun Yuming: "Don't forget what I said, Mingming." He turned and left.
As soon as he left, Zhuang Yi immediately lowered his face and looked at Xun Yuming: "What did you say? Ming, Ming!"
"It's nothing." Xun Yuming secretly laughed, got into the co-pilot, put on his seat belt and stared at him.
Zhuang Yi wanted to ask, but it was a private conversation between them. He was not qualified to inquire about privacy. He looked at Xun Yuming through the windshield for a moment, and finally entered the cab reluctantly.
All the way back to the hospital, Zhuang Yi didn't say a word, even Xun Yuming felt uncomfortable, but he really didn't ask, and when he got off the car, he said coldly: "I'll wait for you here at five o'clock."
"Okay, goodbye." Xun Yuming returned to the laboratory with a smile. In the afternoon, he performed a drainage technique that was not technically relevant to him, and went to the parking lot to find him at five o'clock on time.
Zhuang Yi bought a lot of fruits in advance and put them in the trunk silently. After an afternoon, he still didn't talk to him, his face full of displeasure. Xun Yuming got into the car, and while waiting for the traffic light, tugged at the hem of his clothes, "Are you still angry?"
"When did I get angry?" He still refused to admit it.
Xun Yuming didn't make a sound, and after a long stalemate, Zhuang Yi gradually couldn't hold back, and turned around and said, "Why don't you speak?"
"There's nothing to say." Xun Yuming pursed his lips.
Zhuang Yi let out a low snort, his face turned darker, and a dark cloud hung over his head, and he drove all the way to the nursing home.
Xun Yuming led him across the green grass, asked him to wait in front of the lounge chair at the door of the red brick building, and went in by himself. Zhuang Yi could only stay outside, staring at the green mountains and rivers all by himself, feeling more and more depressed.
Ren Xueyuan was really annoying.
After waiting for a long time, Xun Yuming finally came out and called him, "Grandpa invites you in."
Zhuang Yi hurriedly followed him inside. Behind the door was a large corridor with rooms on both sides. Xun Yuming led him up to the third floor, turned to the left, knocked on the innermost room, and walked in.
This room is not big, but it is fairly warmly furnished. There are landscape paintings on the wall. There is a big bed in the middle, and an old man in hospital gown is leaning on the head of the bed.
Seeing this, Zhuang Yi couldn't help being shocked. Grandpa has short hair and an age spot on his thin cheek. He is much older than when we met ten years ago, and his spirit is not as good as before.
"Xiao Zhuang!" Seeing him, Grandpa was so happy that his right hand trembled and stretched tremblingly in mid-air.
Zhuang Yi hurried forward to hold it, rolled his Adam's apple, and said after a while: "Grandpa, I... haven't seen you for a long time."
Grandpa laughed, wrinkling his face. He looked at Zhuang Yi carefully from head to toe, tears filled his cloudy eyes, and said repeatedly: "Okay... good... good boy."
Xun Yuming was afraid that his emotional ups and downs would affect his condition, so he reminded: "Grandpa, let him sit down and talk."
"Sit down...sit down and talk." Grandpa nodded, still holding Zhuang Yi's hand, turned his head and saw Xun Yuming, suddenly thought of something, pointed to the corner of the wall, and said "um", in a short and severe tone.
Xun Yuming was startled, his face flushed red: "Grandpa!"
"Hmm!" Grandpa shouted again, louder than last time.
Zhuang Yi was confused, looked at his grandfather, then looked at Xun Yuming, he saw him slowly moving to the corner of the wall, with his hands behind his back, his back straight, and he stood still facing the wall.
