Xun Yuming called Zhuang Yi to stop, ran over and said, "I want to ask you something."
The elevator door closed slowly, Zhuang Yi obviously didn't want to go in, but he still raised his hand and tapped the door open button. "What's the matter?" He didn't even look back, but turned his back to Xun Yuming.
"You come." Gently tugging at the hem of his clothes, Xun Yuming gave him a gentle smile, and led him to the bench.
With his left hand in his pocket, Zhuang Yi reluctantly followed him, walked up to Fang Buyu, glanced down with a bit of contempt, and urged, "What's the matter?"
Xun Yuming lifted Fang Buyu's shoulders and introduced him: "This is Dr. Zhuang, can you talk to him?"
Before Fang Buyu could speak, Zhuang Yi smirked first, and tilted his head to look at Xun Yuming, as if to say: If you want me to chat, I will chat, in what capacity do you ask me
"Ask him for me, is that okay?" Xun Yuming leaned into his ear and whispered, "I don't have as many conversation skills as you, so I can't ask questions."
"Yes." Zhuang Yiji hated the "hug" just now, nodded, and said: "Let him go to the consulting room to sign the contract. For your sake, I have half a day on January 30 next year."
Xun Yuming was startled, pulled him away, frowned and said: "...can't you ask him now? I just want to understand the relationship between the patient and him, which is helpful for the treatment. And look at him, how much Poor, I'm afraid something will happen to him."
"Sorry," Zhuang Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, spread his hands and said, "That has nothing to do with me."
The repayment payment in the elevator just now was tender and tender, but now the words are sharp and thorny, Xun Yuming really can't figure him out: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing." Zhuang Yi had a calm expression on his face, with a smile on his face, "What should I do?"
"Don't be so mean, okay?" Xun Yuming's begging humbleness was replaced by annoyance, and he said with a cold face, "Forget it, pretend I didn't say it, go back, go back, I won't bother you."
He left Zhuang Yi on the spot, went to Cen Ji and asked, "Which is his family's ward?"
"At 1627, 1627!" Fang Buyu stared up at him with his eyes open for survival, for fear of missing the opportunity.
"Floor 16?" Xun Yuming frowned, secretly surprised.
Many people are superstitious. As the saying goes, "the sick go to the doctor indiscriminately." The number sixteen happens to be the first of the word "Shun", so it is naturally the most auspicious floor. In contrast, in the face of life and death, eighteen is not important.
Therefore, the people living on the 16th floor are either rich or expensive, the VIP wards are worth a fortune overnight, and the high-ranking wards cannot be squeezed into even the money. Fang Buyu was dressed in ordinary clothes, but Xun Yuming didn't expect that his family members had a background.
"This..." It's okay if it's in the general ward, but it's not easy to do it on the 16th floor. There are special guards watching 24 hours in that kind of place, so it's hard to sneak someone in.
Zhuang Yi glanced at him, and said expressionlessly: "1627 is Xue Jiayan's ward?"
"Yes... yes." Fang Buyu was obviously taken aback, got up and asked, "Do you know him?"
"I'm not familiar." Zhuang Yi lowered his head, the marble floor was so shiny that it reflected Xun Yuming's face, his expression was obviously surprised, and he looked at himself evasively. "My mother lived in 1612, opposite him."
He reminded him of the Xun Yu Ming Jing, and suddenly remembered that when Qin Xueyan was hospitalized, Dean Chen personally transferred them to the ward. Zhuang Yi must have a way to bring Fang Unchang there, at least it is worth a try.
but…
He looked at Zhuang Yi, he didn't have the nerve to speak, the quarrel was already unpleasant, how could he beg him now. What's more, Fang Buyu and himself are neither relatives nor relatives, so it's fine to help out as much as he can, and it's hard for him to bother Zhuang Yi for this.
"Let me ask Dean Chen." Xun Yuming said, "If he agrees, let Cen Ji take you in, but..." Family members and patients have the final say on who is allowed to visit patients. "Anyway, I'll ask."
"Thank you!" Fang Buyu was overjoyed, he held Xun Yuming's hand excitedly, and refused to let go for a long time, "As long as his family is not around, he will... definitely see me."
During this period of time, he stayed in the hospital every day, but he could only contact Xue Jiayan with his mobile phone, and the two secretly texted each other. But Xue Jiayan's forgetfulness is getting bigger and bigger. In the past few days, he often does not reply to his messages. Fang Buyu panicked, like a drowning person, suddenly grasping the straw of Xun Yuming, and refused to let go.
"I know." Xun Yuming didn't expect that his sympathy would cause a little trouble that he couldn't get rid of, and he turned around and told Cen Ji: "You can take him to the cafeteria for a meal, just swipe my card. "
Fang Buyu staggered when he walked, as if he could fly with just a breath. If things go on like this, he might not be able to survive Xue Jiayan.
Xun Yuming sent him away, and then asked Zhuang Yi: "Do you have time? I would like to treat you to dinner."
Busy people whose client appointments are scheduled until next spring, Xun Yuming is not sure whether he will be able to make an appointment.
Zhuang Yi looked at his watch, nodded and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I can't afford it." Xun Yuming's heart hurts when he thinks about half a month's salary for one meal.
"Can I please?" Zhuang Yi walked down the stairs with him to the parking lot, shook the key and asked, "How is it?"
Xun Yuming treats guests sincerely, and for this sake, he can only agree: "Let me invite you, just go to his house."
Zhuang Yi smiled and drove to Sanmenting, Xun Yuming was silent all the way, neither of them made a sound, the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
There was no one else in the store at this time. They stopped the car and walked in. They saw Hai Lanlan sitting in front of the golden camphor in the middle of the lobby doing homework. The long table was not too wide. Lianzi in the book, while guiding him to do the questions.
Seeing the two people coming, Chi Gui said without raising his head, "Today there is only soup noodles."
Zhuang Yi sat next to Hai Lanlan, pinched his cheek, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I'm here to eat the overlord's meal, so I can eat whatever I have."
"Look at Lanlan." Chi Gui picked up the basin, nodded at Xun Yuming, went straight to the back kitchen, and soon came out with two bowls of soup powder, signaling them to stay away and not disturb the children's study.
Zhuang Yi picked a seat and sat down, stirred the flat noodles in the bowl, and asked, "Do you have something to say?"
The stewed beef is unremarkable, and the handful of perilla leaves sprinkled on top are still fragrant. Xun Yuming also stirred, bowed his head and took a bite, the meat was half foam and half lump, with both taste and texture, the fiber was still connected after biting, and the teeth broke immediately when they touched, and it melted after another sip .
Xun Yuming took two mouthfuls, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and looked around, Chi Gui and them were separated by a bamboo screen, and only a shadow could be seen along the gap. He was not afraid of embarrassment, he got up and bowed to Zhuang Yi.
"..." Zhuang Yi was stunned, "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry." Xun Yuming frowned slightly, and said solemnly, "I apologize to you."
"Apologize?" Zhuang Yi was puzzled.
Xun Yuming sat back on the sofa, stared at him and said, "I've been too weak-minded these days. In fact, I didn't expect that I would meet you and work with you when I returned to China. If I knew, I wouldn't come back .”
"I originally thought that we are not lovers anymore, it's okay to be friends. I have been very careful, and I don't want to give you any wrong signals, making you think that I have an affair with you. It is also a stopgap measure to live in your house. I think I can keep my distance from you."
"But I was wrong." He sighed, pinched his temples and said, "Since I don't want to be reconciled with you, I shouldn't have gotten so close to you. Now it's making your imagination run wild, and I can't promise you. It's very unreasonable."
The smile on Zhuang Yi's face gradually faded, and he continued: "I know it's useless to say this, but I didn't mean to get close to you."
That kiss, that pursuit, and the hug in the elevator this morning made Xun Yuming terrified. He found that before he knew it, things had developed out of control. In fact, as early as the moment he met Zhuang Yi, everything was out of control, but he was too self-righteous, thinking that he could hold his own.
Now it's proven that he can't.
"Finished?" Zhuang Yi leaned against the back of the sofa and looked at him quietly.
Xun Yuming didn't finish his sentence. He asked Zhuang Yi to come out today because he wanted to have a frank and honest talk, clarify his attitude, and hope to control the situation within a safe range. It is impossible for him to agree to Zhuang Yi's pursuit, the premise is here, there is no need for Zhuang Yi to waste his efforts.
But when facing Zhuang Yi, he didn't know what to say for a moment: "I... you go ahead."
"I understand what you mean." Zhuang Yi's expression was as usual, without any emotion, "It's just a matter of fact, I put pressure on you, I'm sorry."
"But," he continued, changing the subject, "a few things need to be clarified. First, you didn't give me the wrong signal."
Not only did he not give himself the wrong signal, on the contrary, his signal was clear and clear. Since the reunion, he has written three words all over his face: Impossible. It is impossible to get back together, it is impossible to talk about feelings, it is impossible to reproduce yesterday.
"You don't need to blame yourself, even if there is a signal, I have been releasing it all the time." Zhuang Yi said clearly, "Secondly, it was a coincidence that we got close, and I also deliberately facilitated it."
It is impossible for Xun Yuming to resign, not to mention that he signed a contract with the hospital, even if he did not, there is no need to give up his job just because he avoided Zhuang Yi, it would be too naive and too deliberate.
The focus of Zhuang Yi's career is in this city, so he can't just walk away. In the face of Xun Yuming's difficulties, he couldn't remain indifferent. For example, this time, it was imperative and willing to bring Xun Yuming home who was threatened.
"In the end," he said, "just as it is impossible for me to leave you alone, it is impossible for me not to be close to you. Letting you come home with me, chasing you, kissing you, these are all my personal choices. To put it bluntly, my own If you want, you don't care."
"Did you forget what I told you that day?" He was persuasive and persuasive that day, and he had already said it very clearly. "Don't think it's a waste of my time and my appetite. I'm an adult and I know what I want and what I do. If I don't want to, you don't have the ability to delay me, so don't make decisions for me."
"Of course." Zhuang Yi finally smiled, his face remained serious, "The pursuit of this matter involves your feelings, and it is not unilateral. If you don't like it, tell me clearly, I will never give it to you Troublesome. After all..." He shrugged. "Crushes are nice too, aren't they?"
Zhuang Yi eloquently spoke with reason and evidence, without flaws to criticize, Xun Yuming was speechless for a while.
He came here to ask for a solution, but Zhuang Yi didn't expect that with a few words and an understatement, he would directly erase all his problems. If there is no problem, why should he solve it
"Then... I still have to say something." After thinking about it, his attitude must be clear, "I can't agree to your pursuit, I can only be friends with you. If you think this relationship is too deformed, we can also be strangers, I I'll keep my distance from you."
"That's not necessary. We are already relatives, little ears, and this cannot be changed." Zhuang Yi smiled softly, showing an extremely mature and rational expression, which was quite different from his acting like a spoiled brat at night, "Let's eat, friend, hurry up It's cold."
However, secret love will also come true.
Zhuang Yi didn't intend to give up at all. Sometimes the pursuit is like a psychological offensive and defensive battle. The so-called "soldiers' strategy" is the most brilliant tactic. It would be better to moisten things and disintegrate the opponent's defense line silently.
"Then it's settled?" Xun Yuming believed it, his eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled innocently.
To be relatives and friends with Zhuang Yi, but not to be lovers alone, he is looking for his happiness to his heart's content, and he is ready to leave at any time, is there anything happier in the world than this
In fact, why doesn't he wish he could be more selfish, but in the face of his beloved Zhuang Yi, he can't let the other party watch him being tortured by illness and suffering, and he can't let the other party spend the rest of his life for him.
"Well, it's decided." Zhuang Yi smiled, raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and pushed his soup powder to him, "Eat this bowl."
"Can you... help Fang Buyu with consultation?" Xun Yuming judges others by himself. If it were him, no matter what Zhuang Yi asked, he would agree without hesitation. won't be sad.
"Of course." Zhuang Yi said softly, "Then can you do me a favor too?"
"Okay." Xun Yuming asked without thinking, "What's the matter?"
Just say it.
Zhuang Yi smiled and said, "Go and meet my parents."
