Bowing and watching the head nurse walk away after leaving these words, Liu Zhien, who had finished helping for half an hour, walked all the way to the door of Lin Zengxian's office.
Although I know there will be no problem, after all, she is her sister, and Yoo Ji-eun will always worry about it.
Just like Lin Zengxian said to her before on the riverside, no matter how old her sister is, she is still younger than her.
Tuk-tuk-tuk...
Symbolically raising her hand and knocking on the door, Yoo Ji-eun turned the doorknob without pausing.
Click...
"Good morning, Zhi En."
Hearing the door knock, Lin Zengxian, who was sitting on the sofa, raised his eyes and met Liu Zhien's suddenly widened eyes.
But in those eyes, what should have been a serious and cold office now seems to be in a bedroom at home.
The white curtains are wide open, inviting the golden sunlight outside the window to come in.
In response to this bright and warm color, Liu Ji-en's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt a honey-like holiday fragrance dancing in the air.
On the small square table, two tea cups are steaming warmly and comfortably.
Lin Zengxian was leaning on the sofa, wearing a beige sweater and holding a junior high school English book in his hand. The soft collar was like a hug, holding the leisurely time and the nostalgia of his student days in his heart, and then
Rub it open in the room full of light.
A distance away from the sofa, the originally simple desk is now being rubbed with textbooks and exercise books, mottled with the warmth of time. It is like the shade of a tree filtering out the shadow of the sun, and every touch is within reach.
Leaves that are no longer picked up are called "young".
The pencil case, which has some worn corners, is lazily open, and every pen is taking a nap quietly.
Only on the hand that is writing, there is a "little unlucky guy" who has taken off his "hat" and cannot take a nap. He obediently obeys the student's ideas on the paper with marks.
And this student just raised his head, and his eyes that occasionally showed a little childishness seemed to be soaked in the morning dew. The "playful" corners of his lips reminded people of the wind stirring the wind chimes, running and jumping, gently pulling on the sunshine's clothes.
Sleeves.
"Unnie, you're back."
Liu Zhimin waved her hands with a smile, lowered her head and looked at the textbook again.
"Head high."
His eyes fell on Liu Zhien's face. Lin Zengxian shook the English book in his hand towards her, but this sentence was said to Liu Zhimin who was outside the perspective.
Without answering, Liu Zhimin raised his head, pulled his chin inward, and then turned his gaze to the textbook.
I can’t say the specific reason, but Yoo Ji-eun naturally relaxed the lines of her body, and her shoulders, which were usually tense when working, also fell.
"Senior? Aren't you having a day off today?"
Just like she would close the door when she came home, Liu Zhien closed the door and walked into the room, completely forgetting that Lin Zengxian usually left the door open when she came.
"I forgot something in the office, so come and get it."
With the same tone and tone as usual, Lin Zengxian opened a new teacup, lifted the teapot and poured Liu Zhien a cup of white tea.
From a perspective that neither Lin Zengxian nor Liu Zhien could see, Liu Zhimin pursed her lips and pinched the ballpoint pen gently.
She knew that Lin Zengxian did not come to the office because he forgot something.
However, she didn't know what Lin Zengxian was dreaming about that made him sleep on the sofa here like that.
Because she felt that it might be more than just a dream.
Whether it is the surgeon who descended from the sky or the elder brother who tolerated the younger generation, these impressions cannot coincide with the haggard moment when Lin Zengxian was sleeping.
Although she was often called "sensible" by adults at this time, she was still far less knowledgeable than she would be in the future.
But she still firmly believed that it was not the result of fatigue.
That pale and fragile feeling is like a vine with thorns wrapped around this person's body, slowly tightening.
Everyone is a storybook.
In every book there is a chapter that you don’t want others to see.
"What was the first time you drank this kind of tea?"
Sitting next to Lin Zengxian, Liu Zhien took a sip of the teacup and touched the tip of his tongue to his teeth.
"A kind of white tea, the name is Baihao Yinzhen. Zhimin has been using his eyes too much during revision recently, so drinking white tea is just right."
Picking up the full jar on the table and placing it in front of Liu Zhien, Lin Zengxian tapped the lid lightly with her fingertips.
"Take it back and give it to Jimin to drink."
Before Liu Zhien could speak, Lin Zengxian looked at her, smiled, and pushed the jar toward her again.
"I just heard what Zhimin said about the situation. Have you found a good place to arrange Zhimin? The graduation exam is a big deal."
After refilling his cup with tea, Lin Zengxian reached out from under the table and took out a box of chocolate bars.
He hadn't eaten anything since he woke up in the morning, and his stomach was already protesting.
"Not yet, I plan to look for it after get off work at noon."
Quiet, good environment, comfortable to live in, convenient for daily life...
Although it was just to pass the time in the past few days and let her sister study with peace of mind, Yoo Ji-eun still wanted to give her the best, instead of just finding a reluctant place to make do, which was just the last helpless choice.
"Then let Jimin live in my apartment these days. It's a new house and the environment is good. I happen to be staying in the hospital these days. If I don't go back, you can use it."
Lin Zengxian took off the apartment key and put it on the tea jar.
"Senior, this won't work. I can just think of another way. You..."
Liu Zhien waved her hand hurriedly, took down the key, and put it back on the table in front of Lin Zengxian. Liu Zhimin and Liu Zhimin also stood up from the office, waiting for the opportunity to interrupt and politely declined.
Lin Zengxian said it in an understatement, but both sisters knew that the apartment Lin Zengxian bought in full without any hesitation was a big deal, and it was definitely not something that could be described as "a new house with a nice environment".
Moreover, the two of them would never be able to do such a thing, occupying other people's houses and watching others crowded into a small place like an office.
"I have an outpatient clinic tomorrow. I will have to undergo two major surgeries and three surgeries the day after tomorrow. I originally planned to stay in the hospital and write my thesis. The apartment is empty. You might as well use it.
."
The dark, torn dream flashed through his mind. Lin Zengxian, hoping to fill the last few days with work, picked up the key and put it on the tea jar again.
Ever since he came to this city, Liu Zhien had helped him so much that Lin Zengxian always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him.
"I know you definitely want to arrange a good place for Jimin. My apartment is definitely in the most ideal condition. If you use it, you don't have to look at other people's faces, let alone book a room in any hotel. After all, it's no better than usual.
Convenient."
Suddenly thinking of something, Lin Zengxian picked up the phone and opened the phone album.
"By the way, you must remember to help me feed the sparks."
He raised his phone to Liu Ji-en, and a photo was displayed on the screen.
It’s the dog food I bought in the store with Kim Taeyeon before.
