More than half an hour later, Liu Changqing was ready to leave.
Although Chu Lan was a little reluctant to leave, she didn't say much. She just leaned on the bedside with a smile on her face and said to Liu Changqing, who was carrying a large bag of fruit.
"When will you come again?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, Liu Changqing glanced at Chu Fang, who was peeling an apple aside.
I clearly saw that the other party's peeling action stopped for a moment.
His eyes returned to Chu Lan's face again. Liu Changqing hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"I'll come see you when I have time."
"All right……"
"Then I'll leave first."
Unable to bear to see the girl's somewhat disappointed expression, Liu Changqing left this place without any intention of stopping, walking faster than usual.
The ward door was closed.
The smile on Chu Lan's face faded.
She was leaning on the head of the bed, gently turning her head to the side, looking at her sister who was peeling the skin with a fruit knife.
Said softly.
"Sister...thank you for your hard work."
"..."
Raising her head suddenly, Chu Fang looked at the sister who said this with shock on her face.
I saw...
Chu Lan's face was filled with heartfelt gratitude.
It took nearly twenty minutes for Liu Changqing to drive back to his home.
When he took the elevator and returned to his home, he first adjusted his emotions to prevent his family from noticing anything strange.
Then he opened the door, put on a smiling face, and shouted into the house.
"I bought the strawberries!"
After saying this, Liu Changqing put on his indoor slippers and prepared to walk towards the bedroom.
After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped.
In my peripheral vision, I clearly saw someone sitting on the sofa.
Holding the fruit in his hand, Liu Changqing turned his head and looked at Chen Dafu, who was sitting on the sofa and eating melon seeds.
He froze in place.
Seeing Liu Changqing coming back, Chen Dafu raised his hand and said hello seriously.
"Hey, are you back from running errands?"
"How did you get in?"
"Your wife opened the door. By the way...why did it take you so long to buy a strawberry?"
After saying this, Chen Dafu's eyes noticed the large bag of fruit carried by Liu Changqing.
Excitedly, he placed the melon seeds in his hand on the coffee table, stood up, and rubbed his hands subconsciously.
There was a trace of a bad smile on his face.
"Can you give me a taste? To tell you the truth, I also like strawberries!"
"It's none of your business to dream."
"Don't be so stingy!"
"Do you know how far I traveled to buy strawberries? You're not short of money, so you can just buy them yourself."
"I just like to eat what you buy!"
Looking at Chen Dafu who was surrounding him, Liu Changqing pretended to be disgusted and kept waving his hands to keep him away.
Although he said disgusting words, Liu Changqing's body still reached out honestly and grabbed a handful of loose strawberries from the bag and handed them to Chen Dafu.
"Go and wash yourself."
"okay!"
Looking at Chen Dafu taking the strawberries and heading to the bathroom, Liu Changqing sighed, then opened the bedroom door and walked in.
An Yuanyao has already gotten up.
I was sitting in front of the dressing table, patting a moisturizing product on my face.
After hearing the sound of the door opening, he looked back.
When he noticed the strawberry in Liu Changqing's hand, his expression became surprised.
He stood up and walked towards Liu Changqing.
"Why did it take so long? Are there no fruit shops nearby?"
"Don't mention it, I went to five stores to buy it!"
"thank you!"
All smiles.
An Yuanyao stretched out her hand to take the strawberry from Liu Changqing's hand, but when her hand was about to touch it.
Suddenly stopped moving.
An Yuanyao, who had been smiling just now, suddenly frowned.
He also leaned in the direction of Liu Changqing and took a sniff.
After confirming that she smelled a faint fragrance from her husband's body, An Yuanyao was shocked.
For a moment, he forgot about the strawberries, and instead raised his head and looked at Liu Changqing in front of him.
"Where does the perfume on your body come from?"
"perfume?"
Stunned in place, Liu Changqing looked at An Yuanyao's scrutinizing eyes, raised his other free hand, tugged on the clothes and smelled it.
No? Apart from the fragrance of washing powder, there is nothing else?
Seeing that Liu Changqing didn't reply immediately, An Yuanyao stepped forward and smelled it again.
Then he said with certainty.
"It's true, although it's very faint, but I can still smell it, um... Hey, why is there still a smell of disinfectant?"
"..."
Women are terrible.
Liu Changqing couldn't help but have this idea in his mind, but soon he said helplessly.
"I bought these strawberries from the fruit stand next to the hospital. After buying them, I wanted to go to the toilet, so I went to the hospital for convenience. The perfume you mentioned...maybe it came from my daughter at the fruit stand. I didn't even smell it.
."
"All right."
Reasonable and convincing.
After An Yuanyao listened to Liu Changqing's explanation, she did not continue to delve deeper. She took the fruit from his hand, opened the plastic bag with both hands and looked inside.
"Hmm...it looks delicious."
"I'll go wash you up."
He took the strawberry back into his hand.
After Liu Changqing said this, he walked out of the bedroom door towards the kitchen, filled a small basin with strawberries and rinsed them with water.
When Liu Changqing was washing the strawberries, Chen Dafu, who had already washed them and started eating them, first swallowed the strawberries he was chewing in his mouth, and then stood aside and said to Liu Changqing.
"That boy Li Chongming is finished, do you know that?"
"Yeah, I heard about it."
"Good fortune plays tricks on people... I never thought that after a year, I would hear such interesting things."
As he spoke, Chen Dafu ate another whole strawberry.
"Also... when I went back for the Chinese New Year this year, I heard from my dad that the other shareholders of Ye Rong were very dissatisfied. The losses this year were greater than the previous years combined, and..."
"Speaking of business."
Liu Changqing turned off the faucet, poured out the water in the basin, and then put the small basin aside.
After doing this, Liu Changqing looked at Chen Dafu and said.
"There's no way you...came all the way here just to tell me about Ye Rong."
"..."
There was silence for a moment, and then Chen Dafu's smiling expression just now fell silent.
I don’t eat strawberries anymore.
It looks... a bit melancholy.
With a sigh, Chen Dafu showed off his cards.
"Actually... I told my parents about Gu Xiyu during the Chinese New Year, but my dad... didn't agree."
"Don't agree? What's going on? Have you already dated that little girl?"
"It's almost there. You're almost ready to agree to it."
"It's not a matter of telling the story, why did you say it so early?"
"Aren't I single-minded?"
After saying this, Chen Dafu became a little depressed.
"You don't know that when I went back for the Chinese New Year, my dad took me to meet a few friends... Who knew that under the guise of eating, he came to introduce me to a partner!"
"That's great. Aren't you happy to be introduced?"
"What are you so happy about? There is a 20-year-old woman with a big butt, and there is another who returned from studying abroad. She is five years younger than me. I am 26 this year... How dare I do it!"
After hearing what Chen Dafu said, Liu Changqing thought for a while.
Asked.
"How old is Gu Xiyu?"
"19, what's wrong?"
"..."
Looking at Chen Dafu who said this with a depressed look on his face, Liu Changqing was completely speechless.
