Chapter 225: Ghosts Will Care About You
The farce before the Spring Festival diluted the impact of Pei Shaobei's words, and I didn't think in my heart that Pei Shaobei would really be as he said, and never appear next to me and Gu Xiao again.
This kind of self-confidence does not come from the determination of Pei Shaobei's feelings, but because, since I returned to this city, Pei Shaobei has been entangled with me, I feel in my heart that Pei Shaobei can't let go of me, although I'm not sure how much this relationship can have, but with one more Gu Xiao, this weight is enough for me to believe that Pei Shaobei will not go far.
From that time when we ate together, for two whole weeks, Pei Shaobei really didn't show up, and he didn't even come back at the gate of the community, I often took Gu Xiao to the community for a walk, and deliberately turned around the door a few times without seeing him again. In the first week, I can still attribute his non-appearance to the fact that the big family has a lot of Spring Festival entertainment, but I have already seen reports in the newspaper that he took on a new case, why did he still not appear?
I began to panic in my heart, and I felt that what he had said to me that time seemed to mean it. Mother didn't react much to this, firstly, she didn't hear those words, and secondly, because she had a cold because of the Spring Festival and missing her father, and her body was just fine, so she didn't have so much heart to think about it. She didn't ask, and I couldn't find anyone to talk to, and one person was almost crazy.
For two days in a row, my class was reported by students that it was a bit messy.
I am vigilant, how can I let Pei Shaobei influence myself to this extent. The more scared I was, the more nervous I was, and the more nervous I was, the more chaotic my preparation became.
In order not to delay the teaching plan, I decided to change my course and walk out of my home.
Before, because the student's hearing was not good, I helped him contact a foreign teaching institution, which was originally scheduled to be held once a week, but now my emotions are really not suitable for teaching indoors, so it is better to take out this part in advance, in a certain atmosphere, let the students hone their listening, and also let themselves eliminate those impetuousness in their hearts.
I took the student to participate in the week-long outdoor exchange activities held by the foreign teaching institution, encouraging him to really communicate with foreigners, and the students benefited a lot, and they no longer questioned and worried about me. Foreigners are very welcoming, and it's impossible for you to stay out of it in such an atmosphere.
I was dragged to say a lot of things, and the anxiety in my heart was gradually suppressed.
After the fifteenth, the students started the class, and the class time was to be moved to the evening, before that, we participated in the last outdoor exchange activity together, which was extended until more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon. I said goodbye to my students and was going to take the bus home, when I received a call from my part-time studio, saying that there was a foreign businessman who was in urgent need of a translator and asked me if I could do it, and the time was between 7 and 9 o'clock tonight.
I originally wanted to refuse, but I couldn't bear the other party's persuasion, and I thought about the time that the other party had been taking care of me, but this time I was so anxious, and it seemed a little impersonal to me to excuse myself, so I immediately agreed.
I called my mother and said that I would go back later, but my mother still had a little cough, so she just told me to pay attention to safety and hung up the phone. I had a simple meal, found a place to put on light makeup, and then hurried to the agreed place.
I didn't expect my client to be the plaintiff in Pei Shaobei's case, and this is the first time in more than half a month that I saw Pei Shaobei again.
I was obviously more excited than the other party, but Pei Shaobei didn't mean to greet me, and his eyes were indifferent to make people feel that we were strangers. The original excitement gradually calmed down under Pei Shaobei's cold eyes, I stood beside the foreign businessman with my head down, dutifully translating the words, but I had to face Pei Shaobei's indifferent face, it was like a year.
The foreign businessman's case is a contract dispute case, which is somewhat similar to the renovation of the old community opposite my old residential area. It also involves some high-level shady scenes, which I find tricky when I hear it.
Pei Shaobei still calmly inquired about the details of the case, occasionally frowning slightly because of the evidence provided by foreign businessmen, but he did not mean to refuse at all. I was in a hurry, and I felt that I was amorous, faint, and a little jealous, and I always felt that the reason why Pei Shaobei took on such a case that sounded like a very unwinnable case was because he never forgot the old area renovation in his heart.
Before the matter was finished at nine o'clock, the foreign businessman seemed to be very satisfied, and gave me an extra 200 yuan in red envelopes. I waited for Pei Shaobei to send the foreign businessman away, and then I turned around and wanted to persuade Pei Shaobei not to take such a case easily, but before I finished speaking, Pei Shaobei had already turned around and got into his car, and left without even giving me a look.
I froze where I was, feeling ridiculous. I looked at Pei Shaobei's car that had disappeared into the night, jumped to my feet and scolded, "Die Pei Shaobei, the ghost will care about you, you'd better fail again, let Yuan Shao trample you under your feet!"
Passers-by looked at me with extremely strange eyes, as if I was a madman who was mad at the air. I gasped for breath and calmed my emotions, but the more I calmed down, the more angry I became, and I couldn't wait to pull Pei Shaobei in front of me and bite it hard to relieve my anger.
I went home alone, dejected, not at all excited about the unexpected income. I opened the door, and it was pitch black, and I changed my shoes while wondering, "Mom, why do you go to bed so early?"
The room was silent, and no one answered. I walked briskly to the bedroom, turned on the light, and immediately covered my hair with hair. Why wasn't my mother and Gu Xiao at home at night? My first reaction was that something had happened, and then I was inexplicably connected to the Pei family, and I decided that it was the Pei family who took my mother and Gu Xiao away.
I took out my mobile phone to call Pei Shaobei, and hurriedly walked out, and as soon as I opened the door, I was startled, and Sister-in-law Li, who was standing outside, raised her hand and was about to knock on the door.
"Oh, Gu Wan, you're back, let's go, hurry up and follow me!"
I was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Aunt Li, where are you taking me?"
"Xiaoxiao has a fever, your mother took him to the hospital, and asked me to wait for you when I left, saying that I would let you go as soon as you came back. I just heard the door open, so I came out to look for you, hurry up, the child's face is burning to death!" Aunt Li said as she pulled me downstairs.
I was so anxious and remorseful that I almost wanted to die. Why did I take this job, not only was I uncomfortable stimulated by Pei Shaobei, but also caused my mother to stay alone and Xiaoxiao to seek medical treatment. I persuaded Aunt Li to go back, but she didn't listen, so I had no choice but to take a taxi and take her to the hospital.
Gu Xiao has been transferred to the ward, still pneumonia. My mother and I have been paying attention to it since the last time the pneumonia got better, but I didn't expect it to happen again. The doctor said that the child's immunity is low, and it is easy to get infected if someone in the family has a cold.
The mother wiped her tears with guilt, took Gu Xiao's little hand, and apologized again and again. I reached out and patted her on the back and reassured, "Mom, don't be sad, it's normal for children to have a cold and fever, and you can't be blamed for it!"
Aunt Li also arrived, "Yes, sister-in-law of the Gu family, don't cry, I heard that your voice is not good yet, and the child has pneumonia again, you better not get so close, find a doctor for an injection, and hurry up to cure your illness before you can take good care of the child!"
Aunt Li's words successfully diverted her mother's attention, she nodded again and again, and pulled Aunt Li out.
"Mom, why are you going!" I hurriedly asked, but my mother hurriedly replied, "Go to the doctor!"
Aunt Li asked me to stay and take care of Gu Xiao, she accompanied my mother to the doctor, I was grateful, and I didn't know what to say, but it was the first time I really realized what it means to be a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor.
Mother didn't dare to get close to Gu Xiao anymore, and went home under Aunt Li's persuasion. I lay on the side of Gu Xiao's bed and took a nap in a daze, checking my body temperature from time to time, and in the second half of the night, another person came to the clinic, and the child also ran over to be hospitalized with a serious fever and cough at night.
It was a man who came in with the baby in my arms, and I hurriedly pinched my face to keep me awake. The child was crying so much that Gu Xiao couldn't sleep well, I hurriedly hugged Gu Xiao in my arms, half-leaned on the bed and said to the man, "The child has a fever and is uncomfortable, just make trouble, just give a fever-reducing injection, don't worry!"
"Thank you!" the man smiled shyly at me, and then another man rushed in from outside, calling the doctor to hurry up. I heard the sound inexplicably familiar, and I glanced up at the door.
A woman with a disheveled hair ran in with the doctor and asked urgently, "How is it, is it still burning badly?"
The man in front nodded, "I just measured it, thirty-nine degrees five, doctor, you should give a fever reduction injection first!" The man pleaded, and the doctor looked at the anxious couple helplessly, "I am worried, the child's fever can improve immunity, I will give him a skin test first, you give him some Motrin oral liquid, too many fever injections are not good for the child!"
After a toss, the child finally quieted down, and the doctor left with the hanging bottle, telling the couple to watch carefully. I put Gu Xiao on the hospital bed, covered it with a quilt, walked over and shouted, "Sister Yu!"
Sister Yu, who was holding the child, was stunned, looked up at me, and exclaimed, "Gu Wan, it's really you, you, when did you come back, why didn't you come to the school to look for me?"
Sister Yu handed over the child to her husband, got up and hugged me in her arms, and I don't know if it was because of the excitement just now or because of the joy of seeing me, she cried all of a sudden.
I comforted for a long time, and Sister Yu stopped crying, and felt a little embarrassed, so she couldn't help but raise her hand and hit me and said, "You dead girl, how do you still know that you're back, you left so chic at the beginning, you didn't even leave me a message, do you know how long I've been worried about you!"
Sister Yu's eyes turned red again as she spoke, and I quickly apologized, "I'm sorry Sister Yu, I really had something to do at the beginning!"
"It's not me who you should say you're sorry for!" Sister Yu rolled her eyes, completely unaccepting my apology.
