Chapter 718: Weakness Under the Shell
Carrying Chen Xin's second aunt to send him home, Yang Dongxu felt a little regretful in his heart, because Chen Xin's second aunt always couldn't help but look at him along the way, a little bit of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and a little bit of something else, and he was very uncomfortable to see him sitting on pins and needles.
"Xiao Yang, right? You're also from Hangcheng?" In the end, Aunt Chen Xin still couldn't help but ask.
"It's not an aunt, I'm from Anhui Province, and I studied at a university here in Hangzhou. ”
"Oh...... Then you and our Xiaoxin are ......"
"Friends, or colleagues. ”
"How old are you?"
"Auntie is 25 years old this year. ”
"25? It's too small, ...... with our Xiaoxin" Hearing that Yang Dongxu was only twenty-five, Chen Xin's second aunt frowned. Then I thought of what I didn't say, but the atmosphere in the car became even more awkward.
Fortunately, Chen Xin's second uncle's home is not very far from the hospital, and Chen Xin's second aunt went upstairs to get things, so he could breathe a sigh of relief in the car. Then on the way back, I deliberately drove a little faster, and soon returned to the hospital to relieve this awkward atmosphere.
"You go back first, my second aunt and I stay with the bed. ”
"No, no. Before Yang Dongxu could speak, Chen Xin's second aunt hurriedly said: "Go back and rest Xiaoxin, you still have to go to work tomorrow, the hospital has me and doctors and nurses, your second uncle is also awake, you can go back and rest if it's okay." ”
"But you're alone in the hospital. ”
"Why don't you go back and rest, let your second aunt accompany you today, and tomorrow you come over to take over, and you can cook at home and send it to your second uncle and aunt, the food in the hospital doesn't taste very good." Looking at Chen Xin, who looked tired, Yang Dongxu said.
Originally, Chen Xin had just come back from Qiandao Lake, and he was already very tired when he had to take stock of the accounts on the West Lake, but now he was tossed by the affairs of the second uncle's family, and the tiredness on his face couldn't be hidden.
"Yes, yes, you go back and rest first. Second Aunt Chen Xin nodded hurriedly, and the second uncle lying on the hospital bed also wanted to speak, but he was still a little dizzy and couldn't speak, so Second Aunt Chen Xin continued: "You don't have to come over tomorrow to replace the shift, the doctors have said that your second uncle is fine, just stay in the hospital for observation for a few days, you are busy with your work, don't delay your work because of this matter." ”
"Then I'll go back first. Chen Xin hesitated and nodded.
As for whether she will come tomorrow, she didn't argue with her second aunt, and the second aunt definitely didn't want her to delay her work and disagreed with him to ask for leave. So go back and rest by yourself in this matter, and cook some nutritious meals tomorrow and send them directly to your second aunt's class.
"Why don't you squint first? I'll call you when I get home. Looking at Chen Xin, who looked tired, Yang Dongxu said.
Chen Xin smiled reluctantly, looked up at the inpatient building in front of him, and seemed to be looking for the ward where his second uncle was again, and then he couldn't help but shed tears for some reason.
When she learned that her second uncle had entered the hospital, she almost cried, and when she came to the hospital and saw her second aunt's red eyes, she couldn't help but think about crying. didn't want the panicked second aunt to be at a loss again, she had been holding back, and she couldn't help it anymore at the moment.
Yang Dongxu, who was about to start, turned around and let Chen Xin's head rest on his shoulder: "It's okay, the doctor also said that the rescue is very timely, as long as you observe for a few days, your second uncle will be discharged, and there are no sequelae, and he will get better soon." ”
"I ...... I...... I was so scared just now, if my second uncle has something long and short, my second aunt can't support it anymore, and I will have no relatives in this world. Chen Xin subconsciously reached out and hugged Yang Dongxu, for fear that as soon as she let go, she would be the only one left in the world.
At this time, the hard shell of the previous strong woman who was strong enough to handle anything disappeared. She is just a woman, a divorced woman in her thirties, with no family and no children. Only the second uncle and aunt who have loved him since childhood, if they are gone, she really doesn't know what she should do.
"It's okay, and me, you're not alone with me, your second uncle will be fine, isn't your second aunt okay now? Yang Dongxu patted Chen Xin's shoulder and comforted.
He could feel the uneasiness and hesitation of the woman in his arms at the moment, she was sensible and strong since she was a child, and she was desperately admitted to the university, wanting to better repay her second uncle and aunt.
As a result, not long after living a good life, she faced an unhappy marriage, and in order not to worry about her second uncle's second trial, she didn't dare to go home when she returned to Hangzhou.
I could only rent a house in a large courtyard with a mixture of three religions and nine streams, go to odd jobs, and finally find a regular job, not only being bullied in the yard, but also being manipulated in the factory.
If she hadn't met Yang Dongxu, she didn't know how long she would have lasted. It may not be long before she will put aside her self-esteem and live along, or end her life in the dead of night.
The sudden illness of the second uncle made her completely explode by the uneasiness that had been slowly hidden in her stable life in recent years, and the panic of having no owner and no sense of security engulfed her in an instant.
Bright eyes shine through the curtains into the room, making the light appear a little hazy. Chen Xin's eyelashes trembled a few times with his eyes closed, and he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were confused at first, and then he raised his head slightly to look at Yang Dongxu's sleeping face close at hand, and the panic in his eyes turned into indescribable peace of mind.
Both of them were wearing clothes except for their coats, and apparently they didn't post anything yesterday. All she remembers crying when she got in the car and then fell asleep exhausted.
And the room at this time is her room, and it was obviously Yang Dongxu who brought him back yesterday. As for why Yang Dongxu didn't go back to his room to sleep after wrapping her upstairs, the two of them lay on the same bed.
Thinking that he had been in a daze and sleeping, he had always felt very comfortable holding the big doll that would not let go, Chen Xin's cheeks couldn't help but feel a little hot, and then thinking of the age gap between the two people, his slightly flustered gaze became lost and complicated.
"Wake up?" Yang Dongxu opened his eyes.
"Hmm. Chen Xin nodded, and hurriedly did not dare to look at Yang Dongxu.
"I'll go take a shower and change my clothes first. Yang Dongxu got out of bed, he was held by Chen Xin yesterday and didn't let go, and he didn't have a chance to take a shower after barely taking off his coat.
"Well, I'll make you breakfast. Chen Xin hurriedly got off the bed and lowered his head, still not daring to look at him.
Yang Dongxu raised his hand and looked at the time on his wrist, "It's a little too late to go to the hospital to deliver breakfast to your second uncle, after breakfast in a while, I'll take you to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables first, and I'm buying an insulated lunch box." When you come back at noon, you can cook some food for your second uncle, and then make a soup and send it over. ”
"You don't need you to send me there, I have my own car right down there, I'll just drive, you can go to work and be busy." Chen Xin hurriedly said.
"Then let's finish breakfast for a while, you tell me the accounts that need to be counted in the West Lake Scenic Area today, I will go over to check the accounts today, and when you cook and send it at noon, I will also come back with you, buy some fruit or something to see your second uncle." ”
"No, I'll go see my second uncle later, and if it's okay, I'll go to work. You're busy with you, so you can drive back and forth every day, why are you embarrassed to trouble you. ”
"Okay, be polite to me. If you hadn't helped me manage the mess of Sanwan Travel Agency, I would still be anxious and didn't know who to ask for help. You have just come back from Qiandao Lake, give you a few days off, you don't have to go to work until your second uncle is discharged from the hospital, leave your work to me. How can I rest assured that I can't do it well?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.
"No, it's just ......"
"It's nothing, it's settled, I'm your boss. Don't listen to the boss, be careful I fire you squid. Yang Dongxu wanted to reach out and play Chen Xin's brain, but thinking about it, this action was a bit too intimate.
Although the two of them were avoiding something at this time, they couldn't deny the fact that they had been lying all night with their arms last night, although the underwear or anything was there, nothing happened.
Chen Xin bit her red lips, feeling a little sour and a little warm in her heart, very contradictory. It wasn't until the sound of water in the bathroom that she bit her lip to sober herself up, and then cleaned up the meal she hadn't eaten last night and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
While having breakfast, Yang Dongxu returned to the room and took out a card and put it in front of Chen Xin. Chen Xin looked up at Yang Dongxu, his eyes were a little ashamed, a little lost, a little panicked, and even a little dead silent.
"What do you want?" Yang Dongxu didn't hesitate this time and directly stretched out his hand to give Chen Xin a brain breakdown, seeing her complicated gaze turned into a sore spot, and looking at himself with some annoyance, he smiled and said.
"The money is lent to you, and you will be my long-term worker in the future, do you understand the slave contract? Be kind to me before you pay back the money, and be careful if I get angry and let you pay back. ”
"I don't want to. Chen Xin pouted and snorted, her expression was no longer as complicated as before, but a little cute.
"Take it first, depending on which cousin of yours is temperamental, the money in the hands of your second uncle and aunt must be squeezed dry. You bought a house and a car, and you took a lot of loans, right?
Your second uncle was hospitalized this time, and both of them had their jobs suspended, and even your second uncle may have less money after retiring early. After that, the recovery treatment, nutrition, and living expenses don't cost money, and what do you have to support me?"
"That'...... I'll borrow you. And the money for my second uncle's hospitalization yesterday, I will also pay you back. Chen Xin gritted his teeth and picked up the card.
It doesn't matter if she has no money, she is alone in a tight position, but the second uncle who has just recovered from a serious illness must recuperate well and not leave the root of the disease, and her second aunt can also check her well to rest assured, plus life requires money.
"Of course you have to pay it back, why do you still want to pay the bill?" Yang Dongxu glared at Chen Xin, looking like if you don't believe it, I will beat you.
looked at Yang Dongxu in order to make himself better, pretending to be serious and angry. Chen Xin had an indescribable emotion in his heart, a man would only become childish when he faced the girl he liked.
Love is not only that a woman's IQ is zero, but that a man's IQ has also dropped dramatically. But the two don't seem to be in love again, so it's a bit silly and unclear.
