CHAPTER XXXI

Work irritability is accumulating day by day, and every time he waits until the end of overtime, Xu Qingqing will have a feeling of coming back to life.

On this day, because of Xie Yuan's words, Xu Qingqing got off work on time for the first time, she packed her things and went out, and as soon as she stepped out of the company's door with her front foot, she received a call from Ms. Zhou on her back foot.

"Xu Qingqing, where are you?" Ms. Zhou's voice was tinged with a hint of eagerness. Ms. Zhou rarely calls her by name, unless something happens.

"I just came out of the company and I'm about to go home." Xu Qingqing unlocked the car and got into the car, "Mom, do you have anything you want me to bring?" Given that Ms. Zhou had many experiences in asking her to bring things after work, Xu Qingqing almost subconsciously thought that Ms. Zhou also asked her to bring things this time, but this thing was busy with it.

Ms. Zhou only listened to the previous sentence, and the latter sentence was selectively ignored by her, and she urged Xu Qingqing, "That's just right, don't come back first, hurry up and go to the hospital to see Zhuo Ning." ”

Xu Qingqing's hand pulling the seat belt froze, thinking that he had misheard, and asked again, "Go to the hospital to see He Zhuoning?" Is he hospitalized? ”

"Not really." Speaking of He Zhuoning's incident in the hospital, Ms. Zhou felt distressed for a while, "I heard that I was sent to the emergency department with a high fever this morning, and now I am still asleep." I see that the two of you have not been in contact with each other a lot lately, and I want to invite him to the house for a meal, who knows how this kid ......"

Xu Qingqing suddenly remembered that Su Yuan asked him to take care of He Zhuoning last night, she didn't go, would He Zhuoning's sudden emergency department have anything to do with this, so thinking about it, Xu Qingqing's heart was cold, and it seemed that it was not impossible to do so.

But to be honest, Xu Qingqing didn't believe that He Zhuoning's good person needed to go to the emergency department, "Mom, who did you listen to?" ”

"Who else could it be, of course it's my own mother!" Ms. Zhou has automatically and spontaneously regarded He Zhuoning as her son-in-law, and naturally, He Zhuoning's mother is her own mother.

Xu Qingqing was quite speechless, Ms. Zhou didn't mess with the mandarin duck score for a day or two, Xu Qingqing just kept being patient and didn't say anything, this is good, even her own mother jumped out, "Mom, don't call people if you're fine." ”

"What are you shouting, you and Zhuo Ning will be together sooner or later, and it will be sooner or later for your mother-in-law." Ms. Zhou felt that she was quite reasonable.

Xu Qingqing has witnessed how stubborn Ms. Zhou is since she was a child, she knows that she can't say anything about Ms. Zhou, so she simply doesn't say, "Mom, I still have to drive, hang up first." ”

"Wait a minute, don't forget to see Zhuo Ning, he's in the provincial capital hospital." Before hanging up, Ms. Zhou did not forget to ask Xu Qingqing again.

Xu Qingqing said perfunctorily to Ms. Zhou, "I know." She was sure she couldn't really be there.

Don't talk too much, because it hurts to slap your face. A few hours later, Xu Qingqing felt the taste of a slap in the face.

The provincial capital hospital was on Xu Qingqing's way home, and when he drove by, Xu Qingqing was inexplicably a little uneasy in conscience, if she had taken care of He Zhuoning as she said last night, would he not have had a high fever to the point of going to the emergency department.

The more Xu Qingqing thought about it, the more guilty she became, she turned on the right turn signal, pulled over the car, and hesitated whether she should get out of the car to visit He Zhuoning, if He Zhuoning was alone, she didn't care.

Xu Qingqing was worried about whether He Zhuoning's parents were present, because it was extremely easy for her to be misunderstood if she went so abruptly, just one Ms. Zhou was enough to give her a headache, and if she came to two more, she would not have to live.

After thinking about it, Xu Qingqing felt that it was more reliable to ask the people around He Zhuoning. The first choice is naturally He Zhuoning's good friend Su Yuan, when he went to find Xu Fugui in M City, the two left each other's phone calls in case of emergency.

Xu Qingqing found Su Yuan's phone from the address book and dialed it, but Su Yuan's phone was busy and could not be connected, so Xu Qingqing turned to He Zhuoting, the second candidate.

Before the second ring of the phone, He Zhuoting answered, "Sister Qingqing? ”

Xu Qingqing didn't expect He Zhuoting to answer the phone so quickly, and was stunned for a moment before reacting, "It's me." ”

"Sister Qingqing, is there something wrong with you?" He Zhuoting didn't know why Xu Qingqing called her at this point in time, remembering a certain patient number, she asked Xu Qingqing jokingly, "Sister Qingqing, are you here to care about my brother?" ”

"Uh......" Xu Qingqing's face turned red all of a sudden, although He Zhuoting couldn't see it, "Tingting, your brother...... Are you okay? After a few hesitations, Xu Qingqing still asked.

"Hmm...... It's not very good......" He Zhuoting lied, "So, Sister Qingqing, you should come and see him in person." ”

"I, I'm ......" Xu Qingqing wanted to say that it was not convenient for me.

"Sister Qingqing, don't let me and me, come over quickly, my brother is in ward 5021 of the provincial capital hospital." He Zhuoting kindly reported the address, afraid that Xu Qingqing would regret not coming, He Zhuoting added another sentence, "Sister, I'm waiting for you!" ”

He Zhuoting said all the words, Xu Qingqing was embarrassed to refuse her, so she had to say, "I'll wait here." ”

The wait is an hour.

In an hour, Xu Qingqing spent half an hour looking for a parking space near the hospital, and another half an hour buying fruit baskets at a nearby fruit store.

The place that is always overcrowded all year round is the hospital, Xu Qingqing once again personally felt the huge □□ of the huge population, not to mention the overload of the elevator, and even squeezed through the stairs with people.

Xu Qingqing finally arrived at the door of ward 5021 after a lot of hardships, but she stopped, she regretted her decision, she was still too impulsive to come over like this, how should she explain her identity if she meets someone, He Zhuoning's friend? Or a girlfriend?

The fruit basket of more than 300 pieces in his hand shouted that he couldn't walk in vain, and Xu Qingqing approached step by step with his scalp.

Suddenly, the door of the ward opened, and Xu Qingqing's heart also lifted with the opening of the door, almost thinking that what he was worried about was going to happen, but fortunately it didn't.

After seeing the people who came out clearly, Xu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, the people who came out were none other than He Zhuoting who had instigated her to come over before, and Su Yuan, He Zhuoning's good friend.

I don't know if it's Xu Qingqing's illusion, she always feels that Su Yuan's gaze at her is not as friendly as before. Before Xu Qingqing could delve into it, he was pulled into the ward by He Zhuoting.

While being pulled in, Xu Qingqing took the opportunity to look around the room, and did not find suspicious characters such as elders, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He Zhuoting pushed Xu Qingqing to the hospital bed, and stuck out her tongue at Xu Qingqing slyly, "Sister Qingqing, you and my brother have a good chat, I'll go first." After speaking, He Zhuoting ran away without a trace, and did not forget to close the door of the ward when she left.

Xu Qingqing: "......" What can she talk about with a sleeping person?

Xu Qingqing was pulled and pushed by He Zhuoting and made her center of gravity unstable, she staggered forward two steps before standing firmly, after standing firmly, Xu Qingqing fell her eyes on the sleeping He Zhuoning, and a word "sleeping beauty" popped up in her mind, Xu Qingqing felt that she might be crazy.

He Zhuoning on the hospital bed had a pale face, wearing a light blue hospital gown, with messy hair and stubble full of chin, which made the whole person decadent and weak, where was the high-spirited He Zhuoning she once knew.

Drunkenness and high fever can have such a tragic effect, Xu Qingqing is the first time to see it. And He Zhuoning will become like this, there are some reasons for her, and just a few of them, which are enough to make Xu Qingqing feel guilty and distressed.

Xu Qingqing put the fruit basket in his hand at the head of the bed, and then said to himself to He Zhuoning, who was asleep, "He Zhuoning, I'm sorry, when Su Yuan called me last night, I should have come over, otherwise, you wouldn't be lying here, I'm really sorry." ”

No one responded.

Xu Qingqing sighed, and after silently looking at He Zhuoning's sleeping face, he decided to get up and leave, "He Zhuoning, you have a good rest, I'll go back first." ”

Suddenly, Xu Qingqing's wrist was clasped, and He Zhuoning's rough voice sounded behind her, "Xu Qingqing, no one told you to be sincere when visiting patients?" ”

Xu Qingqing turned his head in horror and shook off He Zhuoning's hand, "So you're awake all the time?" ”

He Zhuoning neither answered yes nor no, he raised his head and glanced at Xu Qingqing, and then at Xu Qingqing's fruit basket placed at the head of the bed, "Xu Qingqing, you want to use this fruit to send me?" ”

He Zhuoning's tone was mixed with a plausible grievance, which made Xu Qingqing stunned, so now He Zhuoning is disgusted that she is too distracted to buy a fruit basket?

Xu Qingqing expressed dissatisfaction, don't look at the few fruits in this fruit basket, but it cost her more than 300 yuan! Xu Qingqing, who was "misunderstood", tried to explain to He Zhuoning, "I personally picked this fruit downstairs and set it up myself. "The word personal, Xu Qingqing said it very seriously, and the subtext is that I have a lot of intentions.

He Zhuoning took Xu Qingqing's dissatisfied little expression into his eyes, his heart was happy, and his face still showed unhappiness, "So what, who knows if you threw rotten fruit into it." ”

"You! If you don't want it, pull it down! Xu Qingqing was so breathless that she pursed her lips and didn't want to deal with He Zhuoning anymore. The previous guilt and distress for He Zhuoning are gone, and now she only thinks that He Zhuoning deserves it, deserves to be frozen overnight, deserves to have a fever, and it is best to burn his brain to relieve his anger!

He Zhuoning saw that Xu Qingqing might be really angry, and he knew that he was a little too much, he subconsciously wanted to comfort Xu Qingqing, "Angry?" ”

Xu Qingqing's mouth was stiff, "No." ”

Generally speaking, women like to talk back, when they say it's okay, it's something, and when they say it's not angry, it's actually angry.

He Zhuoning has many girlfriends, and the woman's temperament is somewhat grasped, and there are many coping strategies, but what is suitable for A may not be suitable for B, and the specific situation has to be analyzed.

For example, Xu Qingqing has a different temperament from the previous ones, and he can't follow the old method at all, let alone He Zhuoning himself doesn't want to use it.

Xu Qingqing is a special existence for him, how special it is, He Zhuoning can't tell for a while.
