Chapter 43: The Lover
The other party didn't know what he said on the phone, Gu Xiaodong just said, "You wait, I'll go over immediately." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Then he went into the bedroom and changed into casual clothes, said hello to Chen Qiumei and went out. Chen Qiumei shouted from behind: "Where are you going in the middle of the night?" ”
Gu Xiaodong went downstairs and found that it would be impossible to borrow a car from the army, so he could only push out the bicycle from the basement and pedal towards the city.
When he arrived at a secluded alley behind the department store, Gu Xiaodong looked left and right, and then pushed the cart into the innermost house.
It was a small courtyard with three rooms, and as soon as Gu Xiaodong entered, a young woman who didn't look good and was wrong came out, and said anxiously with a weak heart: "Xiaozhe has a fever, so I can't call you." ”
"How can you have a fever? Didn't I come to see it yesterday? Gu Xiaodong said as he walked into the house.
I saw a sleeping boy more than a year old lying on the big bed in the bedroom of the back room, with an abnormal flush on his face because of fever.
Gu Xiaodong probed the child's forehead, it was hot and scary. Quickly said, "Pack up and go to the hospital." ”
When the young woman Liu Qing heard this, she quickly took a small quilt and wrapped the child, Gu Xiaodong hugged the child, and the two walked to the hospital.
Fortunately, it is not far from the hospital, and it is only ten minutes walk. There were no people at the hospital at night, and there was no queue.
"What's the child's name? How old is it? The doctor looked at the child and asked.
"Ryu Zhe, one year old and two months." Liu Qing glanced at Gu Xiaodong and said.
The doctor took a mercury thermometer and shook it, stuffed it under Liu Zhe's armpit, and then said to Liu Qing: "You press the child's arm, don't let the thermometer fall, what do you parents think of your child." I came to the hospital after all the burning. ”
After the doctor finished speaking, he listened to the child's lung sounds with a stethoscope, and after five minutes, he took out the thermometer and looked at it: "39.5, high fever, murmur in the lungs." Go to the hospital, or you will burn into pneumonia. As he spoke, he wrote on the prescription slip, and then handed it to Gu Xiaodong.
Gu Xiaodong took it and went out to pay the bill, without having a word of conversation with Liu Qing during the period.
After hospitalization, hang the hanging bottle for the child. Gu Xiaodong looked at his watch, and said quickly: "You are guarding here, I will go back first, if I can't come tomorrow, I will arrange someone to bring you food." ”
Liu Qing's sad eyes were red: "The children are all sick like this, can you stay with him all night." ”
"How is the child sick, I don't need to tell me, right? Don't play this kind of trick in the future. After Gu Xiaodong finished speaking, he left without any regret.
Liu Qing burst into tears instantly, sat on the edge of the hospital bed, touched the child's little hand, and couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.
When Liu Qing met Gu Xiaodong, Gu Xiaodong had just been transferred back to T City, and Liu Qing was working in the Military Service Club at that time. Because Gu Xiaodong went shopping for things when he was old, the two got to know each other after coming and going.
Some love is talked about because of power, some love is talked about because of loneliness, Gu Xiaodong is like this, he doesn't love Liu Mei, but he loves the power behind Liu Mei, he doesn't love Liu Qing either, but he feels that he is not lonely with Liu Qing.
I don't know who took the initiative, the two got together, Liu Qing knew that Gu Xiaodong had a wife, but because she was infatuated with Gu Xiaodong's elegance, she couldn't extricate herself.
Liu Qing thought that she could follow Gu Xiaodong without a name or a point, but when she became pregnant, she quit her job and moved into the house Gu Xiaodong was looking for.
However, as the child was born and grew up, Liu Qing was no longer satisfied with being the woman behind her, and since the child was born, she has no household registration, she is still a black household, and she does not dare to interact with neighbors every day, for fear that others will ask about her family situation.
She had enough of this kind of taste of living in the dark, so she didn't want her children to suffer this kind of sin, so she frequently asked Gu Xiaodong to come to see the children recently.
Today, despite the mid-May weather, the wind is still a little cool, and I just took a cold shower for the child in the yard.
But in this way, not only did he not pull Gu Xiaodong to him, but pushed it further.
Liu Qing cried, thinking about her sorrow, and looked at the poor child on the hospital bed, her eyes were full of cruelty.
Gu Xiaodong's favorite thing in this world is power, power is like a drug to him, once he tastes the wonderful taste of power, he can't quit.
Liu Qing is a variable for him, he has always felt that Liu Qing, as a lover, is very obedient and knows how to advance and retreat, but now it seems that Liu Qing is also beginning to be dissatisfied.
Gu Xiaodong was scheming in his heart, how to appease Liu Qing, it was best if she could agree to take the child to live in other places, and in terms of living expenses, he would definitely not treat her badly. After all, Liu Zhe is his own son.
When Gu Xiaodong arrived home, it was almost two o'clock, the living room was waiting in the dark, and in the bedroom, Liu Mei did not sleep, and leaned on the bedside to read.
"Why don't you sleep yet?" Gu Xiaodong asked.
"Where did you go at night? Will this come back? Liu Mei didn't answer the rhetorical question.
"Something happened to a comrade-in-arms before, so I went over to take a look." Gu Xiaodong said calmly undressed.
Liu Mei stared at him and said, "My dad asked me to go over for dinner tomorrow, you can go directly after work in the afternoon." ”
Gu Xiaodong's undressed hand paused: "Okay, I know." ”
With so many things happening recently, Deputy Commander Liu was dissatisfied with the divorce between him and Liu Mei for three days. Although she will openly blame Liu Mei for being ignorant every time, she secretly does not miss herself.
Especially this time, someone anonymously reported his corruption, although after a thorough investigation, he was fine. However, it still aroused great dissatisfaction from Deputy Commander Liu.
I still remember what Deputy Commander Liu said when I was called to the deputy commander's office: "The so-called no wind and no waves, you must have something you don't pay attention to, which makes people look at it." You are in this position now, how many people squeeze their heads to think about it, why? Because this location is idle, there is still a lot of oil and water to fish. But I don't want you to be one of those people. The soldiers are already training very hard every day, and if they don't sweat and blood during the war, you don't deserve to be a soldier if you sit on it again. ”
Although he didn't say anything directly, Deputy Commander Liu must have been suspicious from the bottom of his heart, right? Lu Zhan Guo came back for a meeting this time, and someone happened to report it, which was too coincidental.
"Xiaodong, Xiaodong, what do you want?" Liu Mei saw Gu Xiaobei sitting on the edge of the bed stunned, and shouted twice before reacting.
"It's nothing, I'm wondering what Dad told me to do?" Gu Xiaodong came back to his senses and said.
"It's just a meal, and calling you home, it's definitely not a matter of work." Liu Mei thought for a moment and replied.
"By the way, I quit my friend's company." Liu Mei continued.
"Why don't you do it? Business is not good? Gu Xiaodong looked at Liu Mei strangely.
"Business is good, and I think it's time for us to have a baby, so I want to take care of my body." Liu Mei flipped through the book and said.
