When Gu Heng received Ye Qingfeng's call, it was before going to bed.

"Hey—" he replied to the person on the other end of the phone, his eyes falling on the alarm clock on the white nightstand.

It's nearly early in the morning.

"Gu Heng." She whispered his name, as if she were afraid to wake up the man sleeping in the hospital.

Even though her voice was so low and soft, Gu Heng still felt it keenly, and there was a faint nasal voice in her voice, which was obviously the voice after crying.

He lifted the white quilt covering his body, simply got up, and looked out the window at the dark night, his voice involuntarily softened, "Well, it's me." What's wrong? ”

"Are you going to sleep?" She asked.

The night was deep, the stars in the sky twinkled and twinkled, and the moonlight shone on the bare branches in the distance.

It's late autumn.

When she just returned to Suicheng, it should be late summer and early autumn.

Gu Heng was wearing gray house shoes, took a few steps forward, and walked to the window, "Well, not yet." ”

The man on the other end muttered for a while before continuing: "The doctor said that my dad has to have surgery. ”

Gu Heng let out a "hmm", put his left hand hanging down on his side into the trouser pocket of his pajama pants, and his back was straight, "Uncle Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will be fine, don't worry too much." ”

"The surgery is scheduled for the day after tomorrow." Her voice raised slightly.

"Okay." The moonlight passed through the glass and fell on his hazy and clear side face, and his voice was low, very similar to the gentle moonlight, "I will ask the assistant to cancel all the trips the day after tomorrow." ”

When Ye Qingfeng heard this, his eyes couldn't help but heat up again.

He always knew what she needed most.

"Gu Heng." She couldn't help but call him again, her voice already tinged with a hint of crying.

"I'm here." He said.

The moon was round tonight, and she leaned against the door of the hospital gate and looked up at the moon like a jade plate, "Thank you." ”

The man on the other end of the line smiled softly, with a teasing tone: "You know it's not those two words that I want to hear the most. ”

Ye Qingfeng lowered his head and smiled lightly, pulling the broken hair on his forehead behind his ears, "Then which two words do you want to hear the most?" ”

Gu Heng didn't answer, and the conversation changed, "How much does it cost to have surgery?" ”

His topic changed bluntly and quickly, Ye Qingfeng was caught off guard, and paused before speaking: "Hmm...... He needs heart bypass surgery. ”

"About 100,000." The man's voice suddenly became serious and serious, "You have only been back in Suicheng for about a month, and Beyoncé will give you a monthly salary of no more than 30,000 at most." ”

These words reached Ye Qingfeng's heart, and she only had about 50,000 yuan in hand now.

During the years she spent in France, she spent most of her time in the laboratory, and there was basically no money left except for daily expenses.

She took a deep breath, didn't spit it out, and said like a cannon: "Can you lend me 50,000?" I'll pay you back, in two months. May I? ”

It's one thing to fall in love with Gu Heng, but it's another thing to borrow money.

She has never liked to owe someone else, even if that person is Gu Heng.

"Well, I'll transfer it to you tomorrow." The man's voice was deep and powerful, like a beautiful cello.

"Thank you." She thanked her again.

Gu Heng's gaze shifted from the window to the bed, staring at the gray pillow, "What I want to hear most is not these two words." ”

"Good night."

The woman's voice on the other end of the phone was very soft, and when she heard these two words, the man's thin lips were slightly hooked, and his black eyes smiled, "These are the two words I want to hear." But isn't there something missing? Well? ”

Ye Qingfeng naturally knew that he meant something, so he bit his lower lip and muttered: "I'm hanging, good dreams." ”

After the voice sounded, Gu Heng looked at his phone, chuckled, and said to himself: "What a shy and strong little woman." ”

He knew that she would not ask for his money directly, so he could only lend it to her.

After Liu Qingyan finished dealing with the company's affairs, when she just stepped out of the elevator, she received a WeChat message from her mother.

[Qing Yan, take time out on the weekend and discuss something when you go home. 】

She frowned, her fingers darting down the keyboard.

[Is there anything you can't say on the phone?] My weekend schedule is already full, and the company has been doing a lot lately, so I can't spare time. 】

In fact, even if she is free, Liu Qingyan will not want to go home.

There are two reasons for this.

One is because every time I go home, I will definitely be interrogated about my boyfriend; The second is that if she says that she doesn't have a boyfriend, her mother will nag her to find a boyfriend to fall in love with as soon as possible.

The thought of these things gives her a headache.

It was already early in the morning, and Liu Qingyan thought that her mother, Li Minyi, must have fallen asleep, but when she walked to the underground parking lot, she knew that she was wrong.

Because the phone rang.

In the empty parking lot, her cell phone rings especially loudly.

She rubbed her temples, opened the car door, and sat in the driver's seat without hurrying before answering the phone slowly: "Hey." ”

"Did you just get off work?" Li Minyi's voice was clear, and she thought she hadn't fallen asleep yet.

"Hmm." She answered, lowered the driver's seat, and half-reclined.

"Why do you always leave work so late? Girls staying up late are not good for the skin, and not good for the body! Geer Company is not your own, why are you always working so hard? What are you working so hard all day long......" Li Minyi on the other end was nagging in a reproachful tone.

Liu Qingyan had a headache and interrupted her, "Mom." ”

Li Minyi knew that this was a warning, so she immediately shut up and didn't speak.

Last time, when she and Liu Qingyan were on the phone, she had a quarrel because she talked about Fu Bai, and for this reason, Liu Qingyan didn't call home for nearly three months. Even WeChat messages are often not replied to.

Li Minyi knows very well her daughter's temperament, and she is as stubborn as a cow. So, you can't just hit it hard.

After both of them were silent for a while, Liu Qingyan spoke first to break the silence, "You called, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Can you go home on the weekend?"

"I just said on WeChat that the weekend itinerary is all full, and there is no time." Her tone was a little impatient, which had something to do with her restlessness.

Lately, Gehr has been at odds with her business partner, and she's been busy with it. It's okay if his career is not going well, and even emotionally, because of Ye Qingfeng, he has repeatedly suffered setbacks. She was in a terrible mood.

"Ziang is back." Li Minyi's voice was slightly serious.

Hearing this name, Liu Qingyan was stunned, "Wei Ziang? ”

"Well, he's been to the house once in the past two days. According to him, he came back last week. ”

Liu Qingyan's mind came up with a teenager, a teenager who loved to laugh.

Wei Ziang and her can almost be said to be childhood sweethearts. When I was in my first year of junior high school, I went to study in the UK. It's been thirteen years. In the past thirteen years, she has only seen Wei Ziang three or twice. Every time, I was in a hurry, and I couldn't say two sentences.

After a pause, Liu Qingyan asked, "Why did he come back?" ”

"Your grandfather Wei is seriously ill, and he is thinking about his grandson who is far away. Ziang is a filial person, so he quit his job and returned to China without saying a word. Li Minyi said lightly.

The words "filial piety", Liu Qingyan heard it in his ears and felt inexplicably harsh.
