Chapter 168: Strange Man [Thanks @ Blue Ocean's Diamond]
After Duan Xuchu entered the ward, he took off his coat, approached the hospital bed, and found a person lying in the quilt, his inky hair lazily scattered on the snow-white pillow.
Duan Xuchu's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly leaned over and stretched out his fingers to the man's ears.
The other party got up vigilantly all of a sudden, grabbed Duan Xuchu's wrist and was about to knock him down, when he touched Duan Xuchu's playful smile, Pei Yanqiao suddenly withdrew his hand, sat back on the bed and sneered, "Early in the morning, are you so boring?" ”
"I wanted to see if you've been growing lately, but it turned out that you were barely able to get by, but your alertness was too low. You didn't notice that I came in for so long, and I guess I don't know how I died in the end. Duan Xuchu put the things he brought in his hand on the bedside table, turned around and looked at Pei Yanqiao's hair that was sleeping a little messy, "Then again, you don't sleep in your own bed, what are you doing in the hospital bed?" ”
Pei Yanqiao lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and after walking to Duan Xuchu's side, he first wanted to raise his hand to touch Duan Xuchu's forehead, but Duan Xuchu slapped his hand away.
"Good intentions are not rewarded." Pei Yanqiao no longer cared about Duan Xuchu, and walked casually to the bathroom, "I came over last night, and after knowing that you ran home without permission, I really regret that I saved you yesterday." It's raining too hard outside, and you won't be coming back anyway, so I'll borrow your bed for the night. ”
When Pei Yanqiao came out again, Duan Xuchu was opening the breakfast he brought in and putting it on the coffee table in front of the sofa, turning his head and seeing Pei Yanqiao's somewhat surprised look, he smiled and said softly: "I expected that you may not have left, so I made breakfast and brought it to you, the potato shortbread you like, sit down and eat it while it's hot." ”
He couldn't sleep and got up very early, took the coat he had changed last night into the car, and put the breakfast he had made in by the way.
In Pei Yanqiao's cognition, a man like Duan Xuchu is certainly ambitious and ruthless enough, but he is not lacking in gentleness and thoughtfulness, as long as Duan Xuchu cares about someone, Duan Xuchu will be good to that person wholeheartedly and as best he can.
He Pei Yanqiao is one of them.
Pei Yanqiao patted Duan Xuchu's shoulder hard, "While accompanying your 'big baby', you can still remember me and make me breakfast, it seems that you are fine." Saying that, Pei Yanqiao sat down on the sofa, picked up the potato cake with chopsticks and ate it elegantly.
"It's just a shot, it's nothing to people like us." Duan Xuchu hooked his lips and said disappreciably, pushing the finished sauce to Pei Yanqiao's hand.
Pei Yanqiao paused, looked up, and swept Duan Xuchu's pale face with deep eyes, but he didn't say anything more, and then changed the topic, "Pei Yanjie is back, saying that she asked me to inform you, and she will visit you in two days." ”
Wei Wei was not there, Duan Xuchu was a lot more casual, relaxed his body and sat back on the sofa, he was going to take out a cigarette to smoke, and thinking that Wei Wei was pregnant, he was determined to quit smoking, and finally had to give up.
Playing with the lighter between his fingers, the dark blue flames jumped, Duan Xuchu asked casually: "She stayed well abroad, what did she suddenly come back in an eventful time?" Or does Uncle Pei think that you and Yan Jin are not in the climate, so let her take over the Pei family's chaebol? ”
Pei Yanqiao couldn't accept the evaluation of "not becoming a climate", and his face suddenly became ugly, "Whether she inherits the Pei family's chaebol has nothing to do with me, I am not interested in Pei Tingqing's family business." ”
Duan Xuchu listened to Pei Yanqiao's casual tone, shook his head and said helplessly: "I don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings, I hope that there are elders like your parents who think about me everywhere." ”
"Then I would prefer a woman like Wei Wei to love me?" Pei Yanqiao didn't raise his head when he said this, and he didn't stop chewing, he blurted out, extremely careless, but more like from the depths of his heart.
This made Duan Xuchu's heavy pupils squint tremblingly, and he locked on Pei Yanqiao, who was still bowing his head, "Pei Yanqiao, I warned you, right?" You can't beat Wei Wei's only idea, and you can't have any thoughts about Wei Wei. I can let you do anything from childhood to adulthood, but Wei is the only woman who can't. ”
Pei Yanqiao raised his eyes and collided with Duan Xuchu's compelling gaze, and his lips hooked up with a consistent arc that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "The ones you gave me are not what I want." What if I also like Wei Weiyi? ”
"Brother and wife, don't be deceived." Duan Xuchu didn't look away, not like a joke at all, "When that time comes, we will be friends." ”
Pei Yanqiao was very contemptuous, "Heavy color and light friends, I knew that you were this kind of person, I should have pushed you into the sea to feed the sharks back then." After saying it indifferently, Pei Yanqiao remembered one more thing, "But then again, Pei Yanjie said that she was going to give you a big gift, her brain is not normal, you should beware of her, don't make any unforgivable 'mistakes' at that time." ”
Duan Xuchu frowned his slender eyebrows when he heard this, "I haven't paid attention to her, and I'm still making medicines?" In Duan Xuchu's impression, Pei Yanjie is a woman who is very deviant.
She has a research institute abroad, dedicated to the research of some legendary "elixirs", or beauty drugs that can keep people young and beautiful, and it is said that she is still looking for a way to keep the body from decomposing for thousands of years.
Pei Yanqiao nodded, "I asked people to check, she brought back a few right-hand men, and she stayed at home most of the time every day to do various experiments." She injected a baby squirrel with a drug, and the squirrel didn't grow up for three years. ”
"Last night I had someone get that amazing squirrel into my hands, but unfortunately I killed it in less than half an hour." , Saying that, Pei Yanqiao pointed to the bonsai over there, "The body is there, and I haven't had time to clean it up yet." ”
Duan Xuchu: "......"
How did you get it and kill such a cute little thing?
He walked over and leaned down, and sure enough, he saw the little fluffy squirrel, lying in a huge flower pot as if asleep.
Duan Xuchu's face was solemn, "It is a medicine with three poisons, every creature has its own natural growth rules, and if you forcibly destroy it, it will be counterproductive." I think if this squirrel were to be dissected, it would be estimated that its internal organs would already be full of holes. ”
Pei Yanqiao suddenly regretted it, "So could this kind of thing carry some virus?" ”
"You brought it in, how do I know?" Duan Xuchu turned around and raised his eyebrows to look at Pei Yanqiao, "Are you so afraid of death?" ”
Pei Yanqiao: "......"
In the end, Duan Xuchu still called his subordinates to clean up the little squirrel, and Dr. Zhou called at this time to tell Duan Xuchu, "Mr. Duan, I just returned home, but Miss Wei is not here. ”
"What?" Duan Xuchu sat on the bed to rest, and when he heard this, his face changed, and he stood up suddenly, "What about the neighborhood, have you looked for it?" ”
It's raining heavily outside, Wei Wei shouldn't go out at will, and with a steady personality like her, if she goes anywhere to avoid Dr. Zhou's worry, she should tell Dr. Zhou in advance, or let Dr. Zhou follow, unless she knows that she is injured and secretly finds the hospital?
Duan Xuchu stood there, staring at the heavy rain outside the glass window, his other hand slowly clenched into a fist, and asked calmly: "What about her mobile phone, can't she get through?" ”
"I put it in the bedroom and didn't take it away."
That's right.
Li Shaochong's people couldn't find the beach, and Wei Wei went out without a mobile phone, which showed that he was in a very anxious situation, and in addition to his safety, he thought that even if Wei Mohua did, he would not let her be so desperate.
Duan Xuchu's tense nerves relaxed, and he calmly said to Doctor Zhou, "I know, Doctor Zhou, you don't have to worry. Yesterday you told me that she used GPS to locate this hospital, and if you count the time, she should have come, and I asked Li Ao and a few people to wait for her outside the hospital. ”
"That's good."
Duan Xuchu hung up the phone at this time.
Seeing this, Pei Yanqiao asked out loud: "Are you sure nothing will happen?" ”
Duan Xuchu nodded, "It's going to be fine, Li Shaochong shouldn't get the news so quickly, but I still have to go and see for myself." He walked out and was about to open the door.
Pei Yanqiao slapped his palm on the door panel, and said with a gloomy face: "You take care of yourself!" You don't see how scary your face is, but you're still stubborn. Since you've spent so much effort and still haven't hidden it, let her take care of you. And I don't understand, is it necessary for you to be so perverted in your desire to protect her? ”
"You really don't understand." Duan Xuchu's hand on the door lock tightened slightly, and his voice was hoarse with tiredness, "Li Shaochong has been trying to separate me from the only one, trying to get the only one away from me. He couldn't find a place to stay by the sea, maybe he wouldn't have come with him, or maybe his people had been around the hospital, waiting for the only one to appear. ”
"Yan Qiao, have you forgotten how Li Ao's sister died? I can't keep the only one by my side all the time, not because I can't protect her, but because it's too risky. ”
Pei Yanqiao's brows locked tighter, "I'm more concerned about why Li Shaochong is so targeted at Wei Weiyi, don't you tell me that 'Li Shaochong's 40-year-old likes Wei Weiyi so tender', this kind of unreliable thing, big brother, he doesn't have this habit, right?" ”
Duan Xuchu only felt a splitting headache, rubbed his temples with his fingers, and said very contemptuously: "So it's not that I don't discuss what I do with you, but even your IQ and thinking can't keep up with my rhythm." ”
Pei Yanqiao: "......"
Duan Xuchu held on to the door, feeling as if he was about to fall, and said to Pei Yanqiao a little weakly: "You get closer, I will tell you Li Shaochong's true identity, and you will understand." ”
Pei Yanqiao leaned over suspiciously, and was about to listen to Duan Xuchu's so-called secret, but who knew that Duan Xuchu's hand suddenly loosened, and the whole person suddenly fell down.
Pei Yanqiao's face changed, and he quickly grabbed Duan Xuchu's arm, "Ah Chu! Only then did he find that the temperature on his body was frighteningly high, and the palm of his hand touched his sweaty forehead, which was also hot.
Obviously, Duan Xuchu had a high fever.
Pei Yanqiao immediately opened the door and called his subordinates and doctors, and after sending Duan Xuchu to the operating room, Pei Yanqiao suddenly felt a little bloody - in TV dramas, there will always be people who are dying The moment they are about to tell the truth, they will lose their breath, right?
Otherwise, it would be Duan Xuchu playing tricks on him.
Pei Yanqiao thought of Wei Weiyi's safety, and asked Wen Jiaren to wait outside the operating room, he walked to the elevator without taking his umbrella, and after arriving on the first floor, regardless of the heavy rain outside, Pei Yanqiao strode out of the hall, trying to find Wei Weiyi near the hospital.
***
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the hospital, and Wei Wei got out of the car after paying, and was about to open his umbrella to protect himself from the rain, when he was hit by a passer-by.
Her umbrella fell from her hand, and then she stumbled under her feet, losing her balance and nearly falling to the ground, when her arm was suddenly held firmly by a large hand.
The first thing that caught Wei Wei's eye was the black gem button on the cuffs of the man's suit, the hand was white and thin, and the bones were very good-looking, and there was no ring on the slender five fingers, and the cold temperature of the fingertips was transmitted to Wei Wei through the skin, which made Wei Wei shiver.
Wei Wei suddenly raised her head, under the umbrella above the two of them was the man's handsome but unfamiliar face, I don't know if it was because of the rainy day, when this face was reflected in Wei Wei's pupils, it gave her a very unreal feeling, cold and stiff, only a warm smile flashed in those bright eyes.
"This young lady, are you all right?" The strange man suddenly spoke, his voice was magnetic, deep and deep, and it sounded like he should be over 30 years old, "Can you stand on your own?" ”
Wei Wei suddenly came back to his senses from the man's overly gentle eyes, and hurriedly pulled out his arm and bowed politely to the man, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the trouble." ”
"It's okay." He smiled charmingly and elegantly, bent down to pick up Wei Wei's only umbrella that had fallen on the ground, handed it to her, and said softly: "It's just that this kind of weather is not suitable for you to travel as a pregnant woman, so it's better to let your boyfriend accompany you." ”
Wei Wei was a little embarrassed when he heard this, "Thank you for reminding me, I'll pay attention." When he took the umbrella, he noticed that this man's dress was very noble, which showed that his identity was not ordinary.
It's just that Wei Wei was worried about Duan Xuchu in her heart, so she didn't think much about it, and said goodbye to the man politely, she turned around and walked to the hospital.
Wei Wei took a few steps with her umbrella in her hand, and suddenly as if she remembered something, she suddenly paused.
Wrong.
How did that strange man find out she was pregnant? Her belly doesn't show up, and she can't detect it just by looking at it, right? What's even weirder is that she would lose her mind to a strange man, and it is very likely that this man hypnotized her, or drugged her or something.
So if a strange man has such a strong purpose, then this man is-
Wei Wei suddenly turned his head away.
However, in the flow of people and vehicles coming and going in front of the hospital, how can you still find the figure of the strange man.
"One by one!"
Wei Wei was out of her mind, and there was an intimate whisper from a man behind her, she turned her head again, and saw Pei Yanqiao's long figure striding towards her in the heavy rain.
Before Wei Wei could react, Pei Yanqiao had already bent over to stand under her umbrella, "What are you doing, how many times have you been called, and you pretended not to hear, right?" As he spoke, he reached out and took her umbrella, holding it high above their heads, and he looked down at her deeply in the clear sky.
