Chapter 44: The Cold War

In the early morning of the next day, Ren Xu finally opened his eyes from the chaos, and the headache made him frown and turn over, but he suddenly felt that his body was empty, and his whole body had fallen to the ground.

Rubbing his temples, Ren Xu was now completely awake, he turned his head to look around, but suddenly found that he was sleeping on the sofa, covered with a blanket on the sofa.

It seemed that he was talking to Li Xun about Su Nian last night, but as he spoke, he lost consciousness, Ren Xu sat on the sofa and gently rubbed his forehead, turned his head to look, and found that the house was cleaned up as neat as new, and Li Xun was not there.

exhaled, felt that the whole person was filled with the smell of alcohol, took off his shirt and went into the toilet to take a shower, and left to knock on Li Xun's door, but he didn't hear Li Xun's answer, so he had to change into formal clothes and drive.

It was still raining heavily outside, and the sky was gloomy and terrible, Ren Xu sat in the car with an umbrella, and picked up his mobile phone to call Su Nian as usual.

In this week, Ren Xu basically didn't see Su Nian except for the time when he went to pick up Li Xun, he called Su Nian, and Su Nian hung up the phone after just two short sentences.

"Hey. Su Nian picked up the phone, still as indifferent as ever, "Is there something wrong?"

Ren Xu lowered his head and softened his tone, "Su Nian, are you at home, I'll pick you up from work today." ”

Su Nian was leaning on the sofa, wearing a mask with her eyes closed, and she was still wearing lazy pajamas, she took a bite of fruit and said indifferently: "I will rest today and will not go to work." ”

Tao Le was sitting on the side, shaking her feet and eating snacks, her favorite anime was playing on the TV, she turned her head to look at Su Nian's indifferent appearance, and reached out to take out a potato chip and stuffed it into her mouth.

"I'll hang up if it's nothing. Su Nian chewed potato chips indistinctly, looked at the TV and said expressionlessly.

"Su Nian. Ren Xu leaned on the seat and pinched his eyebrows, his brows furrowed, and his tone was a little impatient, "Su Nian, enough trouble, it's been a week." ”

Su Nian, who had just torn off the mask, had her fingers slightly stunned, her eyebrows raised, and she said lightly: "I'm not angry, I just don't want to pay attention to you." ”

Ren Xu frowned, turned his head to watch the heavy rain pouring down, and suddenly felt a burst of irritability for no reason, "Su Nian, you have never been so ignorant. ”

Su Nian was silent for a while, lifted the hair that blocked his eyes, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes, "Do I have to be sensible all the time?"

"Su Nian!" Ren Xu couldn't help but raise his voice, "We're not children anymore, can you be a little more mature!"

"Have I been immature for so many years?" Su Nian couldn't help but amplify his voice, so frightened that the potato chips in Tao Le's hand fell to the ground, and he hurriedly squatted down to pick them up.

Ren Xu felt that his chest was blocked, he suddenly clenched the steering wheel, clenched his back molars, and after being silent for a long time, he barely suppressed the anger in his heart, "Su Nian, you are immature now!"

"Ren Xu. Su Nian lowered her head and laughed softly, the coldness in her light-colored pupils was even worse, she leaned back on the sofa, lifted Erlang's legs, and gently stroked the hair on her forehead, "If your so-called maturity means accommodating and obeying you everywhere, then I'm sorry to ......."

For some reason, Su Nian's words made Ren Xu's heart tremble, and he hurriedly interrupted Su Nian's words, "I didn't mean that, Su Nian." He looked down at his watch, it was almost eight o'clock, and he exhaled, his tone softened a little, "I'll go to work first, if you have time this afternoon, can you come out with me for a meal?" I haven't seen you for a week......

"I'll talk about it in the afternoon. Su Nian hung up the phone.

Tao Le, who was sitting next to him, chewed a small cake, blinked his eyes, and looked at Su Nian with a cowardly expression, "You are too fierce today, this is the first time I have heard you quarrel with him." ”

Su Nian casually picked up the water on the table and took a sip, then turned his head and glanced at Tao Le, "I have always accommodated him, and the result in exchange is that my emotions will become an excuse for him to blame me." ”

Tao Le nodded as if he didn't understand.

"Tao Le. Su Nian looked at her with complicated eyes, and after a while, she smiled bitterly and gently pinched Tao Le's face, "You have to be a princess all the time, so that someone will be willing to spoil you every day." ”

"Su Nian, what are you doing so sadly all of a sudden. Tao Le rushed over and hugged Su Nian's neck, "If you have time to be sad, you might as well think about how to surprise your little brother for a while! I brought him a bottle of men's perfume, and I don't know if he likes it or not!"

Helplessly stretched out his hand to grab Tao Le, Su Nian patted her head, "Why did you think about your little brother just when you came back, why don't you want to think about your sister and me, I've been out for so many days, have you brought me a gift?"

"Oh, Sister Su Nian. Tao Le rubbed Su Nian's arm coquettishly, "You are such a rich petty bourgeois life, and you are not short of emotion, but our lovely brother Li Xun, where can you have the money to take care of yourself, plus I happened to be absent when he was injured in a car accident some time ago, and I really feel very guilty in my heart." ”

She pouted, blinked her eyes, and looked at Su Nian simply and cutely, "You see my sister, I get five or six thousand a month for manuscript fees, where can I have the money to buy you a gift again, can you understand your lovely sister?"

Pushing Tao Le's head away with one finger, Su Nian got up from the sofa, walked to the kitchen, cut some fruit and put it on the plate, poured yogurt and put it on the table, "Ask where my brother is, I'll accompany you to find him, this kid hasn't moved from yesterday to today." ”

After getting the instruction, Tao Le rolled on the sofa with a smile and sent a message to Li Xun: Brother Li Xun, you had a car accident some time ago, but it was just in time for me to participate in the writer's training class, I'm really sorry, now I'm back from outside, do you have time, I'll treat you to a meal!

The mobile phone buzzed non-stop, Li Xun stretched out his hand from the quilt in a daze, took the phone and looked at it, exhaled lightly, and got up from the quilt tiredly.

"Little master, are you awake?" Next to him, a bowl of hot noodles had been placed on the dining table, and Grandma Huang smiled and touched his forehead, "You had a fever last night, and your face was red, are you feeling better now?"

Li Xun suddenly realized that Grandma Huang took care of him all night last night.

The narrow bed can only sleep one person, Li Xun fell asleep in a daze at Grandma Huang last night, and Grandma Huang took care of it for a night, although Li Xun knew that he was only hot last night because he drank too much wine, but looking at Grandma Huang's kind face, Li Xun still felt very guilty.

"When you get up, let's eat. Grandma Huang set the side dishes on the table, "I am also poor here, there are no good dishes and good food, you can eat together, do you have to go to work in a while? Grandma will go out to see you off in a while." ”

"No need grandma. Li Xun walked to the kitchen, this cramped two-bedroom apartment, the kitchen and sink are shared.

The brand-new tooth cup and toothbrush were bought by Grandma Huang this morning, the cup was already full of water, and the toothpaste was squeezed on the toothbrush.

It was good that I didn't have a nightmare last night.

Li Xun lowered his head and put the bowl into the sink, Grandma Huang hurriedly reached out to stop Li Xun and kicked him out of the kitchen, "You go quickly, hurry up, I'll do the rest, you go to work." ”

Li Xun quietly looked at Grandma Huang's back, sighed, turned around and walked out.

The alley in the early morning was full of the smell of food, the dripping rain fell down the eaves, Li Xun stepped on the deep and shallow puddle, and instantly soaked his clothes again.

"Little Master!" A hurried voice came from behind him, and Li Xun turned his head when he heard it.

Grandma Huang held a yellow umbrella and ran towards him, and in the heavy rain, she blocked the umbrella above Li Xun's head, "It's raining heavily, why don't you take the umbrella?"

Li Xun hurriedly held the umbrella and walked back with Grandma Huang's arm, "Grandma, why did you run out like this, it's raining heavily, don't your legs hurt?"

Helping Grandma Huang into the house, Li Xun walked out with a yellow umbrella again.

In the depths of this rain-washed dark alley, Li Xun's yellow umbrella is like the most eye-catching scenery in it.

At this time, Sewol Medicine has fallen into a busy situation.

Ren Xu poked his head out of the office and looked at Zhang Meng, who was bending over and saying something, "Hasn't Li Xun come yet?"

The workstation next to him was empty, but it was already full of small cakes and snacks, and Zhang Mengcong shrugged helplessly.

Ren Xu sighed helplessly, closed the door and sat in his seat, holding his mobile phone and saying with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, Li Xun is busy with another business outside now, and he can't come back, what can you tell me." ”

Li Hui, who was standing on the side, with excitement and anticipation on her face, was holding the folder and listening quietly.

In the middle of the night, a subtle voice came from Ren Xu's mobile phone, "The high-level meeting of hospital leaders has decided to come to our hospital at eight o'clock tomorrow morning for the last bidding speech, and what I hope to see is Li Xun." ”

The blood rushed to his head in an instant, Ren Xu took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, no problem, tomorrow morning, I will let Li Xun arrive on time." He paused, but he still couldn't get around the doubts in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Can I ask, why do you have to go over?"

Laughing lightly, Liu Qi said quietly: "It has nothing to do with official business, this is my private request." ”

Ren Xu was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't understand it in his heart, so he could only smile lightly, "Okay, I know, thank you, Director Liu." ”

The phone hung up, Ren Xu breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the chair, and pinched his eyebrows, "The case of the city hospital is coming to an end." ”

"yes. Li Hui walked over with a smile and put the document down, "How many times have we all negotiated in the past?" ”
