Zhong Keke didn't know what he was fighting for.
It seemed that she was always under pressure, she didn't want to face Jiang Yuqiao, but she couldn't help being influenced by his messages.
It was difficult for her to describe this mood.
She can only judge rationally as much as possible, that is, Jiang Yuqiao lives in the same city with her now, no matter what the reason and purpose of his coming here, she will inevitably have more or less contact with him in the next four years.
Whether she wants to face it or not.
She couldn't erase the fact that he was still her brother Yuqiao in the past ten years of growing up together.
Thinking of this, Zhong Keke closed his eyes and stood up reluctantly. As soon as one foot stepped out of the ward, he saw a slender man with long legs on the ground, leaning lazily against the wall.
He habitually put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and held a lollipop in his mouth. Seeing Zhong Keke come out, Jiang Yuqiao raised his eyes and pushed the sugar ball from left to right with the tip of his tongue.
As if he had been waiting for this moment for a long time, he took out a lychee-flavored one from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Keke.
Zhong Keke stared blankly at the man's fair and broad palm, opened his mouth to refuse, "No."
The little girl looked stubborn.
There was a clear disapproval written on his face.
Jiang Yuqiao narrowed his brows and pulled his hands back. Before speaking, he crushed the lollipop and threw the thin rod into the trash can not far away.
Zhong Coco stood still.
Jiang Yuqiao walked in front of her unhurriedly, his dark and pure eyes directly facing her.
Zhong Keke was a little uncomfortable looking at him, and said first, "What are you looking for?"
Jiang Yuqiao looked calm, "It's almost eleven o'clock, why don't you leave?"
"The dormitory has long been turned off." Zhong Keke looked away, "I didn't intend to go back."
Jiang Yuqiao nodded lightly and looked at the sturdy-looking escort chair in the ward, "This hospital's conditions are not that good. You may not be comfortable sleeping there at night."
When he said this, Zhong Keke thought that she was going to sleep on that hard folding chair tonight. But it doesn't have to be sleeping there. Xu Xinya agreed with her, and if it really doesn't work, the two of them will be squeezed into the same bed.
As if guessing what she was thinking, Jiang Yuqiao kindly reminded, "And there may be emergency patients in the middle of the night, and then there is no way to use that bed."
Word to here.
It was only when Zhong Keke came to understand the purpose of calling himself out.
She glanced at Xu Xinya, who was lying comfortably in the room chasing the drama, with an embarrassed expression, "Then do you have a better escort bed?"
Jiang Yuqiao replied simply, "No."
Zhong Keke: "… "
Jiang Yuqiao lowered her thin long eyelashes and looked at her thick top of hair, with a gentle and patient voice, "But you can go to the duty room to sleep."
Hearing this, Zhong Keke raised his head slightly in surprise, "Duty room? For your doctor?"
"The superior doctor asked for leave today, and Corey is the only one on the night shift." While speaking, Jiang Yuqiao leaned down slightly and looked at the little girl with a steady gaze, "You can go there to sleep, I promise not to let others disturb you."
He was always like this, approaching suddenly.
Zhong Keke seemed to have a stress reaction, and subconsciously took a small step back, his heels against the wall.
Seeing her icy expression turned into a little panic, Jiang Yuqiao raised the corners of his lips and stood up straight.
Zhong Keke was instantly annoyed.
The two have been with each other for ten years, and they are all familiar with each other's micro expressions. She knows that she is now clearly understood by Jiang Yuqiao.
Zhong Keke didn't like this feeling.
She pinched the corner of her skirt and refused without hesitation, "Thank you for your kindness, no need."
Jiang Yuqiao was not surprised that she would refuse, and still reminded me lightly, "You are so angry when you wake up, what should you do when you cry tomorrow morning."
Zhong Keke made up his mind not to accept his kindness, and answered simply, "It's nothing to do with you crying."
After saying this, she raised her feet to leave.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuqiao stopped her from behind, "I haven't finished my words yet."
There was a voice in Zhong Keke's heart telling her not to listen, but to go in quickly, but her footsteps were as heavy as lead, and she couldn't move at all.
Just when she was hesitating whether to turn around to face her, the male voice that sounded like a clear spring sounded above her head, "I don't have a girlfriend."
"… "
Zhong Keke turned sideways involuntarily, his expression clearly stunned.
Jiang Yuqiao looked at her candidly, his eyes like a bright beacon in the dark night, "It's that little nurse who doesn't understand the situation."
The voice fell.
There was an indescribable embarrassment in the air.
Zhong Keke tensed the corners of his lips and looked at Jiang Yuqiao with an indescribable expression.
The man's dark eyes pressed down, and he explained without hesitation, "At that time, a lot of people introduced me to girlfriends, and I thought it was troublesome, so I said that I had a goal, but I didn't expect it to spread and become me. have a girlfriend."
Zhong Keke clenched his fists subconsciously.
I want to say that if you love it, you have it, tell me what to do.
Who knew that in the next second, Jiang Yuqiao suddenly laughed lightly and looked at her for a moment, "It didn't matter at all, but I didn't expect—"
Zhong Keke raised his eyes slowly.
Jiang Yuqiao's peach blossom eyes were slightly curved, and his smile was clear and gentle, "I was heard by my little target."
Fu Ying's surgery did a good job.
According to the chief surgeon, as long as he recuperates well in the hospital, he can be discharged after a week.
Because of their studies, Zhong Keke and Xu Xinya couldn't come to accompany her every day, and after the first night of being in bed, Fu Ying wouldn't let them both come.
That night, Zhong Keke did not accept Jiang Yuqiao's help in the end, and stubbornly chose to sleep in a hard escort chair. Fortunately, there were no patients in the emergency room, and Zhong Keke could squeeze with Xu Xinya in the middle of the night.
But even if two people are thin, it is very uncomfortable to squeeze into a single bed.
Zhong Keke didn't fall asleep at all, and woke up twice in the middle of the night.
The most embarrassing thing is that before 8 o'clock in the morning, the doctors and nurses came to round the room. Zhong Keke was in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Yuqiao followed the chief physician to inquire about the situation.
According to Xu Xinya later recalled.
At that time, Zhong Keke's face was so ugly that he almost jumped out of the window.
Later, after checking the room, Jiang Yuqiao came again.
This time, instead of coming to see his condition, he silently left three breakfasts. Among them, mandarin duck milk tea and cheese beef burgers are exclusive to Zhong Coco.
Zhong Keke came back from the wash, and when he saw this hot breakfast, he instantly understood what was going on.
She didn't want to eat it.
Until I saw the note attached to the breakfast bag, it was handwritten by Jiang Yuqiao, and every tick and stroke carried a familiar stroke and strength—
"Don't compete with your body."
"Eat while it's hot."
Because of this sudden encounter, Zhong Keke didn't go to the hospital much for the next two days.
On the one hand, she was deliberately avoiding it.
Another convenience is that every time she wants to go, something stops her.
Recently, the director has been involved in joining the party, and she and Qi Xue are among the candidates. The two of them usually compete, and no one wants to let go of such a big thing.
It's not that Zhong Keke has to join the party, but she just doesn't like Qi Xue's smug look, especially since she recently talked about a boyfriend.
At this moment, Zhong Keke was immersed in writing the party application in the dormitory. Zhang Yue was watching anime and chatting with her, "I heard her say that she is very handsome, and she is a doctor. I don't know if it is true or not."
"I heard that I still played some games to know each other."
"Do you think it's funny? She usually dislikes us playing games and making noises, but in fact, she is happier than anyone else."
"… "
For some reason, Zhong Keke suddenly thought of Jiang Yuqiao.
Her thoughts were blank for a moment, she stopped typing, and recalled the two face-to-face encounters with Jiang Yuqiao that night.
Seems like nothing has changed.
He was still so cool and gentle, and he was very patient with her.
It's just that she never asked why he came here, because of changes she didn't know about at work, or... for the small goals he said.
Thinking of these three words, Zhong Keke raised his hand and touched his earlobe inadvertently, and the feeling of restlessness and impatience came up again.
At this time, Xu Xinya, who had finished the elective course, called Zhong Keke, "Hey, Keke, I'm going to help Fu Ying deliver something. Would you like to come with me?"
I haven't seen Fu Ying for two days.
Zhong Keke was also thinking about it, and suddenly lost the thought of writing the party application. She buckled the computer and stood up, "Wait for me to clean up, I'll go with you."
When we arrived at the hospital, it was almost noon.
I heard that Fu Ying could already eat some liquid food, so the two of them specially bought hot egg soup and brought some fresh fruit.
But in just two or three days, the ward was already full of people.
Zhong Keke and Xu Xinya sat next to the bed, and the other sat on the escort chair, chatting with Fu Ying. Fu Ying was also in the party quota, but because of her wounds, she could only write on her mobile phone while lying on the bed.
Because they are not from the same department, she has no competition with Zhong Keke, but is worried about Zhong Keke's membership in the party.
Fu Ying knew about Qi Xue, so she couldn't help but say a few more words, "She's not good at heart, you two are straight, try not to conflict with her, and this time, Keke should be more careful, don't let her What tricks are used behind it to grab it."
Zhong Keke was peeling apples for her and smiled, "I didn't think about it that much, just try it."
"Don't be too light, Qi Xue," Xu Xinya clicked her tongue, as if she suddenly remembered something, and smiled at Ying, "You don't even know, she recently talked about an online dating partner, Just blow it, say that he looks handsome, and he is also a doctor."
When Fu Ying heard this, she was instantly happy, "Why does she sound like Dr. Jiang?"
"Forget it," Xu Xinya glanced at Zhong Keke, "Just because of her appearance, she is probably looking for an online liar, completely unreliable."
Fu Ying nodded, "Well, it makes sense."
Zhong Keke lowered his eyes and peeled the apple seriously without saying a word.
Unexpectedly, the girl who was taking the hanging needle in the next bed heard Fu Ying mentioning Jiang Yuqiao, hesitated for a while, then approached softly and said, "Hey, classmate, do you know Dr. Jiang?"
Hearing this, the three of them raised their heads at the same time.
The girl grew fleshy and looked like a cute little bun. When she talked about Jiang Yuqiao, her eyes seemed to light up, "Do you know why Dr. Jiang hasn't come these two days?"
Xu Xinya looked at Zhong Keke subconsciously.
Zhong Keke's eyes were a little confused.
Although Fu Ying was here all day, she didn't know how the doctors' work was arranged, so she politely shook her head, "Maybe it's a vacation?"
The voice just fell.
The little nurse who came in to change the dressing came over and continued, "Dr. Jiang is sick and asked for leave."
Zhong Keke shaved Apple's hand and subconsciously said, "What's wrong."
The nurse put on the medicine, turned her head and glanced at Zhong Keke, and said calmly, "Who knows."
Zhong Keke: "… "
The nurse picked up the replaced medicine bottle and glanced at a few people, "Maybe it's too popular, you're tired."
Drop this.
The little nurse left in a hurry.
Xu Xinya reacted that she was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and suddenly stood up angrily, "Hey, what's this person's attitude, what's wrong with yin and yang here."
The girl next door nodded, "That's right, what did you say, as if Dr. Jiang belonged to her."
Fu Ying looked at the two people who were filled with righteous indignation and comforted, "This nurse is always like this, don't think too much."
As she said that, she looked at Zhong Keke, whose eyes were blank, "Are you alright?"
Zhong Keke heard the words, and then gradually recovered.
"It's okay," she put the peeled apples in a clean lunch box and handed them to Fu Ying, "eat it."
…
The afternoon class is at half past one.
At about twelve o'clock, Zhong Keke and Xu Xinya said goodbye to Fu Ying and planned to go back to school.
The two have not eaten yet.
Thinking that there is still plenty of time, Xu Xinya suggested that it is better to find a restaurant nearby and go back after eating.
As soon as she got out of the ward, Xu Xinya started to search for delicious food nearby on the app, but Zhong Keke was a little absent-minded and responded to each other.
Although reluctant to admit it.
But at this moment, she was really thinking about Jiang Yuqiao's illness.
In her impression, Jiang Yuqiao seldom got sick. The last time she heard about it was the one that Fu Yuanhang told her.
But then again, being a doctor seems to be really tiring. For someone like him who just came out of school, it is even more tiring. Maybe this time he is sick, and he is really tired.
Thinking of this, Zhong Keke suddenly came up with the idea of calling Fu Yuanhang.
She picked up the phone involuntarily, and before she unlocked it, she suddenly heard a surprised female voice from the front of the corridor, "Doctor Jiang, why are you here? Aren't you sick?"
Zhong Keke's footsteps followed.
Xu Xinya had to stop as well.
She raised her head and followed Zhong Keke's gaze. The next second, she saw Jiang Yuqiao, who was wearing a well-pressed sky blue shirt and navy blue trousers, with a tall and thin figure, not far ahead.
The man's face was too pale, and when he was talking to the nurse, he looked a little tired and cold, until he saw Zhong Keke who stopped in front of him, and the long, narrow and deep peach blossom eyes suddenly showed the warmth of melting ice and snow.
I don't care what the nurses around me say.
Jiang Yuqiao walked to Zhong Keke with his coat in hand, and looked at her intently, his voice slightly sandy, "Have you finished reading your classmates?"
As if being pulled back from a dream, Zhong Keke nodded dully, "Yes."
I thought I wouldn't be able to meet her, but who knew that I caught one, Jiang Yuqiao lightly hooked his lips in a good mood, "That's just right."
Zhong Keke: "?"
Jiang Yuqiao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Let's have lunch together."
