As soon as he approached the door of the ward, Liu Mao's voice came out: "How did I know you haven't had lunch yet? You didn't even say a word."
"Yes, WeChat." Xu Huaisong replied affirmatively.
Ruan Yu paused about one meter away from the door, looked down at the insulation box in his hand, and choked for a while.
Xu Huaisong was ill and confused. He said it on WeChat, but he said it to her.
She just said, why did she receive a message with a very familiar tone and a very confident attitude after she hung up the voice: [Bring me a bowl of porridge at noon.]
The location and ward number are also attached at the back.
Could it be that the message that was intended for Liu Mao was sent to her by mistake
But facing such an instructional sentence pattern, and thinking of Xu Huaisong's transfusion in the ward to handle her case last night, even out of humanitarianism, she couldn't refuse.
Now what? To go in or not to go in
Ruan Yuchu was hesitating in the corridor, when he suddenly heard Liu Mao's deep voice again: "Okay, I'll buy it for you." After speaking, he strode toward the door.
She had no time to dodge, and was bumped into by him, so she had no choice but to laugh dryly: "Lawyer Liu," she said as she lifted the thermos box in her hand, "Buy porridge?"
Ruan Yu was led in by Liu Mao.
Xu Huaisong was leaning against the soft pillow, typing on the computer keyboard, looking as if he was busy with work, seeing her come in, his eyes flashed with surprise.
Ruan Yu said "uh": "Well, the door is open, I heard you guys talking..." He said and shook his phone, "Lawyer Xu, your porridge."
Xu Huaisong seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then realized what was happening, he lowered his head and slid his phone away to look at it: "Oh." After a pause, he added, "I'm in trouble."
Ruan Yu put down the insulated box and the documents in his arms, and said, "Then I'll go first. This document is the final draft of the anti-color palette. I brought it along with you. Just read it when you are in better health."
Liu Mao stopped her with an "hey" sound: "It's a hot day, this trip is considered a waste of time for me, I'll treat you to an ice cream."
Ruan Yu waved his hand and said "no", so when he took a step back and suggested "sit and eat some fruit before leaving", it was hard to refuse again.
Liu Mao beckoned her to sit down on the rest chair, put the thermos box on the table in front of Xu Huaisong, and unscrewed the lid for him.
There is a strong fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus. There are two layers of boxes, one layer is filled with white porridge, and the other layer is filled with red bean paste.
What kind of strange way of eating is this
Xu Huaisong seemed to be very familiar with it. He wiped his hands with a wet tissue and slowly poured the red bean paste on the porridge.
A sense of "excessive" loneliness filled Liu Mao's heart. He asked curiously, "Is this a specialty of your place?"
His wording was "you", but Xu Huaisong gave a natural "um".
Ruan Yu was terrified: "How does Lawyer Xu know that I am also from Suzhou City?"
"Understood." He scooped up a spoonful of porridge, and responded to her with her original words. When he looked up and saw that her face was almost pale, he slightly pursed his lower lip and added, "Your WeChat information."
Oh yes, in her profile, the region column says "Sushi".
fine. It doesn't matter if you recognize fellow villagers, it's fine if you don't know that you are an alumni.
Ruan Yu heaved a sigh of relief, smiled "hehe", and changed the topic as if to cover up: "Glutinous rice is not easy to digest, I'm useless, the taste may not be good, you can make do with it."
"Um."
Liu Mao felt that he was more redundant, and was about to run away, but when he looked up, he saw that Chen Hui, who had been dismissed just now, had returned, and when he saw Ruan Yu, he was pleasantly surprised: "Miss Ruan, are you coming to see Brother Song?"
Ruan Yu thought to himself that this was purely an oolong, but he couldn't really say that he didn't come to see Xu Huaisong, so he nodded and said "yes".
Chen Hui smiled at her, turned around and found that Xu Huaisong had changed to porridge in front of him, and gave a strange "huh".
"Help me take down the tissue." Xu Huaisong interrupted his question in time.
Liu Mao was close to the bedside table, handed him the whole pump, and then patted Chen Hui on the shoulder: "Let's go, the law firm still has something to do."
Chen Hui said "Oh", but turned around suddenly when he came to the door: "Oh, brother Song, I read your email at four o'clock in the morning this morning, and I will give you the information later."
Ruan Yu was taken aback.
At three o'clock in the morning, she must have been "unconscious". Didn't Xu Huaisong say that he fell asleep too, that's why he didn't hang up
She stared for a moment, and then heard his question: "Three in the morning? Are you sleepwalking?"
Liu Mao's reaction was almost derailed: "Xiao Chen made a mistake, that's the email I sent."
Ruan Yu: "..."
This group of lawyers didn't even know who they were going to hear. Why was she so anxious for their clients
"Really?" Chen Hui rubbed the back of his head, walked out suspiciously, and slapped his thigh in the parking lot, "No, brother Mao, it's Brother Song's email, that's right!"
Liu Mao opened the door: "I'm a little discerning, you don't want to work in a law firm anymore?"
Chen Hui understood in a daze, fastened his seat belt after getting in the car, and said, "So, Brother Song was very strange when he met Ms. Ruan. He said that the day he first came, he insisted on me acting in a play, saying that Sister Zhang touched Ms. Ruan. I was in trouble. Later I dialed his voice and asked when I would pick him up, but he answered inexplicably 'no food'... "
Liu Mao didn't know there was such an inside story, so after thinking about it, he sent a message to Xu Huaisong: [You have a limit to playing tricks, small things count, so don't procrastinate against the color palette. Everyone has brought the final draft, and it cannot be justified if it is not finalized.]
In the ward, Xu Huaisong, who had just finished his porridge, picked up his phone, read the message in silence, and typed: [You think I want to procrastinate?]
He and her are like a lotus root that has been cut in half with a knife. Apart from the case, there is no other connection.
But Liu Mao was right, this matter should come to an end.
Seeing that he had finished eating, Ruan Yu took the initiative to put away the tableware, and said again: "Lawyer Xu, take a good rest, I'm leaving first."
Xu Huaisong nodded and opened the file, and when she walked to the door with the insulated box, he said, "Wait."
Ruan Yu turned his head, his eyes questioning.
He said: "Your manuscript has been missing a chapter."
There is a chapter missing. The chapter where the heroine has erotic dreams.
Ruan Yu's heart jumped three feet suddenly.
She tried her best to calm down: "No?"
Xu Huaisong didn't give her a chance to get away with it: "Check Chapter 23."
"now?"
Xu Huaisong nodded fatally.
She bit the bullet and walked back: "But I don't have any manuscripts in hand."
"There is no background on the website?"
He is a lawyer, why does he even know the background of the Women's Literature Network
Ruan Yu slowly opened the background of the phone.
There is no escape, but at least a fig leaf can be found. So she said: "There is a bit of a card on the Internet, I will send it to you on the way back later."
"There is wireless here, the password is four, six, four, eight."
Ruan Yu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and after three minutes, copied and pasted the content of the chapter, copied it into a document and sent it to him, and then said, "Here you are, then I'll go first."
Xu Huaisong frowned at the computer.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"It's too long, it hurts my eyes."
Seems like he came in because of his stomach
"Then watch after you have a rest."
"You read."
"?"
Ruan Yu rubbed his ears: "What did you say?"
Xu Huaisong closed his eyes, lifted the quilt, and lay half of his body down: "I roughly remember the original work, read it once, and I'll confirm that there is no problem, then we can finish work."
"..."
He will be fine, she will be.
Ruan Yu couldn't even hold back a smirk: "I've confirmed that there is nothing wrong with this chapter."
"During World War II, in order to strengthen the protection against fighter planes, the British and American military investigated the distribution of bullet marks on surviving aircraft after the war, and decided to strengthen the places with more bullet marks. However, statisticians pointed out that we should pay attention to the parts with few bullet marks, because when they are severely damaged, It will be very difficult for the fighter plane to return. And this part of the data is often ignored by people." Xu Huaisong closed his eyes and told the story.
"..."
An anti-color palette is stunned to involve World War II, and her book writers don't have this kind of imagination.
Ruan Yu couldn't utter a word of rebuttal, so he took out his mobile phone in admiration.
OK, give him a fighter jet.
Isn't it just a piece of obscenity, who is not an adult yet
She closed the door, put down the insulation box, picked up the phone, pressed her left hand on her right wrist, trying to stabilize herself, then cleared her throat, and said in a mechanical female voice: "Chapter 23..."
The word "Zhang" fell, and someone knocked on the door.
She paused, and Xu Huaisong also opened his eyes.
The female nurse standing outside said through the door: "Mr. Xu, there is a lady surnamed Tao who claims to be your mother and is asking the information desk for your ward number."
A minute later, Ruan Yu, who had no time to escape, met the mother and younger sister of Xiao Huang Wen's hero.
As soon as the door opened, the three women looked at each other for a moment, and Tao Rong and Ruan Yu nodded to each other at the same time.
Xu Huaishi looked at Ruan Yu from head to toe in a daze, and seemed to recognize her: "Ahhh..."
"Xu Huaisong." Xu Huaisong straightened up and gave her a sombre look, "Today is Friday, did you skip class?"
Her attention was drawn back, and she grabbed Tao Rong: "How can it? Mom approved it! You see, you won't go back to Suzhou City after you return to China, so we have to come here specially."
Tao Rong patted her hand lightly: "Your brother is busy." Then he glanced at Ruan Yu who was standing still, "Who is this?"
It was only then that Ruan Yu realized that he was still holding his mobile phone tightly and said hello, "Hello, I am the client of Lawyer Xu, and I am here to discuss work with him."
Xu Huaisong acquiesced to this identity, asked Tao Rong and Xu Huaishi to sit down, and said, "I said it's nothing serious, it's just that the climate is not acclimatized."
"It's all in the hospital..." Tao Rong's eyes turned red, but she stopped at this point, probably because she was worried about the presence of outsiders, so she didn't continue.
Ruan Yu immediately realized that his presence hindered the family, and was about to leave when Xu Huaisong glanced over: "Wash some fruit for my mother."
With an "oh", she turned her head to pick up the fruit basket on his bedside table, and felt something was wrong when she walked outside the door.
Ask her to wash fruit for his mother? Why does this seem weird
She was in a daze when she suddenly heard a crisp voice from behind: "Sister, let me wash it for you!"
