(3) Sister-in-law
"Why am I betting? It's not to win more money to help your father, who knows that people are unlucky to drink cold water and stuff their teeth, and owe so much money, isn't it a last resort? ”
Chu Qin was still unreasonable, Luo Qi was speechless, her head was about to explode, Luo Xiaowei's intermittent crying came from the bedroom, Chu Qin was stunned for a moment, Luo Qi took her arm and pushed her away from the door.
With this kind of person, she can't stay for a minute.
"Luo Qi, listen, it's okay if you don't give me the money, I will go to Chu Tianyou, when the time comes, I will see whether you are embarrassed or I am ashamed. Anyway, I don't care about face or anything for a long time! ”
Listening to Chu Qin's warning behind the sound of the door closing, Luo Qi was cold all over her body and clenched her fists. If it weren't for the fact that Luo Xiaowei is younger brother, she would never have stepped into this door.
*
Luo Xiaowei was still admitted to the hospital where Chu Chen was, and after Luo Qi personally went through the hospitalization procedures, Chu Qin stopped her in the corridor.
"Luo Qi, Xiaowei, you have to take care of me for a few days. The creditor is chasing after me, and I will go out and hide for a few days. Chu Qin said bluntly that she deliberately took Luo Qi's army. Anyway, either pay back the money for her, or take care of her son, no matter which one it is, it will be enough for Luo Qi.
"What are you kidding, Xiaowei is so seriously ill, you are not around as a mother......"
"I want to, too. However, those people shouted every day that if they didn't pay back, they would pay back their lives! I can't wait for Xiaowei's illness to heal and let him lose my mother, right? Anyway, Xiaowei is your younger brother and your father's only son, whether you want to take care of it or not, how to take care of it, you can do it yourself! ”
"You ......"
is really invincible, throwing down this sentence, Chu Qin threw his hands and left. Luo Qi's blood gushed upward, but when she heard Luo Xiaowei's cry in the ward, she gritted her teeth and could only go in first to take care of her younger brother.
Luo Qi has no experience in taking care of children, and used to protect Luo Xiaowei too well in the Luo family, although they are half-siblings, Luo Xiaowei and Luo Qi are not very close.
Now seeing that his mother is not around, there is only a sister who is not very familiar with him, Xiaowei cries even more fiercely, clamoring for his mother.
Luo Qi was helpless, while wiping his face, he coaxed him softly, but after coaxing for a long time, Luo Xiaowei cried more and more fiercely, and his crying face turned white, making Luo Qi in a hurry, and his headache became more and more cracked.
"Kid, let's see what Santa Claus has given you?" Chu Chen held a small Christmas tree in his hand and came to the ward where Luo Qi was with a smile.
In order to make Luo Xiaowei happy, he also wore a red Santa hat, Chu Chen was originally sunny and beautiful, dressed as Santa Claus, and he was even more cute.
couldn't help Luo Xiaowei, and even Luo Qi was stunned when he saw him like this.
It's winter, but it's still a while before Christmas. What tricks is he playing?
Thankfully, children are not resistant to such things. Luo Xiaowei, who was already tired of crying, looked at Chu Chen and the Christmas tree in his hand with blinking eyes, and sure enough, he stopped crying.
Chu Chen walked over and put the Christmas tree next to Luo Xiaowei's bed, like a big child, seriously, and vividly learned the appearance of Santa Claus: "Little friend, be good." Any idea where your mom went? ”
Thinking of his mother, the corners of Luo Xiaowei's lips twitched, and he shook his head: "Woo, mom doesn't want me anymore......"
"No, Mom loves her little friend the most, how could she not want you? She's begging Santa Claus to give you a present. See this Christmas tree? Every night, Santa Claus will hang a present for you on this tree, and you will be able to see it when you open your eyes the next day. By the time the tree is full, your mom will have done her job, and she'll be in front of you. ”
"Really?" Xiao Wei looked at Luo Qi suspiciously, with tears still on his little face.
"Of course it's true. Xiaowei, Santa Claus never deceives. Aren't you the most fond of collecting toys of all kinds? You think, how happy it is to give you a new toy every day, isn't it? Luo Qi blinked her eyes and coaxed Luo Xiaowei very cooperatively. I have to say that in terms of coaxing children, Chu Chen has more methods than her.
"And my mom showed up when the gifts were full?"
"Of course. Not only will it appear, but it will also give you a favorite gift. ”
The two of them were half-coaxing and half-deceiving, and Luo Xiaowei, who finally coaxed, stopped crying, obediently ate lunch, and even obediently didn't cry anymore when the nurse came to give the injection.
Luo Qi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Luo Xiaowei was about to fall asleep, she gently closed the door for him.
Outside the door, Luo Qi looked at the Santa hat that Chu Chen was still wearing on his head, couldn't help laughing, and sneered.
There were people coming and going in the corridor, Chu Chen was a little embarrassed, and quickly took off his hat.
Luo Qi smiled at Chu Chen gratefully: "Thank you today, you still have a way, I'm about to be maddened by this little thing." ”
"Now that you know thank me, why didn't you tell me when you visited the most famous hematologist in our hospital? Sneak in, you can see that you don't treat me as a friend, you guard me against everything, I really shouldn't help you!" Chu Chen strained his face, tucked his hat into his pocket, and looked at Luo Qi tightly with his arms crossed, as if he was really angry.
Luo Qi only smiled silently, calmly picking her fingers. She knew that Chu Chen would say this, and she had been waiting for his accusation for a long time.
With the lesson of the last time, how dare she look for Chu Chen, and let his best mommy know again, and she doesn't know how to squeeze her?
After returning from Chu Chen last time, Chu Chen had already called her a few times to apologize. Luo Qi was not angry with him, she avoided him just because she didn't want to bring herself unwarranted infamy.
She understands the power of the rich and is used to it. His mother scolded her, and she didn't care. But let Chu Chen be caught in the middle, why bother?
Seeing that she just laughed and did not speak. Chu Chen stretched out a finger and nodded her shoulder like a child: "Speaking of you, don't think that you can get away with it without speaking." ”
"Okay, Chu Shao, I was wrong, okay?" Luo Qi grimaced slyly and said with a grin.
"The heart is so big. Everyone else bullied you like this, and you laughed out loud! Chu Chen scolded her with a dark face, but his eyes were full of deep distress when he looked at her, and he looked at Luo Xiaowei, who was already asleep, through the glass on the door, and asked worriedly: "What are you going to do in the future?" ”
"If it comes, it will be safe." Luo Qi shrugged and spread her hands helplessly.
"Let my eldest brother help you find a few people to take care of him, and I can help you too."
"Don't, don't ......" Luo Qi hurriedly excused herself, since the responsibilities and obligations of her and Chu Tianyou were clearly explained in that contract, she shouldn't trouble him anymore. What's more, he had already given her enough money.
It's just that, sometimes, money can't replace family affection and take care of her.
Luo Qi was a little embarrassed, but still said lightly: "I'll figure it out myself, he is my brother after all, I can't ignore it." ”
With her sad face, Chu Chen really couldn't stand it. He walked over, wrapped his long arms, and hugged her shoulders, startled Luo Qi, and was just about to shake off his hand, when he heard Chu Chen say, "I think you should take care of yourself first, go, go and eat." ”
Dine? Right. From the busy morning to now, Luo Xiaowei's lunch has been eaten, and her lunch has not yet arrived.
Chu Chen took her to a well-known restaurant nearby, opened the menu and began to order the same dishes. When he ordered the fifth course, Luo Qi waved his hand busily: "Enough, enough." The two of us can't eat so much ......."
"Who said you can't eat it, I can eat it very much, master." Chu Chen ignored her and ordered more than a dozen dishes in one breath before giving up.
"Young Master, it's not such a waste of money to have money. Don't you see, there are still people outside who can't even eat? Through the window, Rocky pointed to the ragged beggars across the road.
"Don't worry, those people may be richer than you." Chu Chen glanced in the direction of her finger and chuckled at her.
Really, I am in this situation, and I still have the heart to sympathize with others.
Rocky was silent and smiled wryly. Indeed, she may really not be as good as a beggar now, at least, people don't have to sell their bodies or sell their marriages.
Seeing the gloom in her expression, Chu Chen knew that he was speechless. After the dishes came up, he diligently filled the plate in front of her with a full of dishes: "Don't be stunned, let's eat quickly, see how thin you are." It is to take care of others, and you must also take care of yourself first. ”
Luo Qi chewed the delicious food in front of her silently, Chu Chen sandwiched all the meat for her, and it could be seen that he was feeling sorry for her.
In the meantime, several of Chu Chen's female colleagues also came here to dine, and when they saw Chu Chen alone with a beautiful girl, they were still affectionate, and they all cast ambiguous glances at the two, and some of them were bold and teased Chu Chen: "Doctor Chu, your girlfriend?" ”
Chu Chen didn't explain or object, he still served Luo Qi vegetables diligently, as if she wouldn't be able to eat enough.
After thinking about it, Luo Qi put down her chopsticks and said solemnly: "Chu Chen, there is something I want to tell you, your brother and I are going to get married." ”
Chu Chen, who had just picked up a chopstick dish, stiffened his hand, and the dish fell on the drop. The two of them were stunned, and Chu Chen immediately picked up the paper towel and removed the stains on the table.
"So, I'm going to change my name to your sister-in-law in the future?" Stiff for a moment, he wiped his hands, and although he smiled, he couldn't hide the loss between his words.
"Hmm." Rocky nodded.
"Sister-in-law? I really didn't get used to it for a while. Trying to scream, Chu Chen laughed at himself again, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and suddenly lost his appetite.
The atmosphere was a little suffocating, and Luo Qi lost her appetite. In fact, she and Chu Chen were very happy together, the simplest kind of happiness. Unlike her and Chu Tianyou, she is always complicated and can't figure out what it's like.
"Since they're all family, you shouldn't be polite to him. Married, your brother is his brother......"
"Chu Chen!" Rocky interrupted him, "I don't know what I can do for him, and if the scales are always out of balance, I'm afraid I'll not be able to hold on sooner or later." ”
