Chapter 17

Chen Du's mood is a bit complicated.

His divorced wife went at his ex lover's for a part-time job...

This damn, it looks like a horror story no matter how you look at it.

The secretary has been observing his words for many years and at a glance he can see that Du Chen's face is wrong.

He suspects that his eyes hint that he has hit his boss's pain point.

He immediately pretended that nothing happened and asked in a law-abiding manner: "Boss, you asked me to contact the other company and said that we need an on-the-spot inspection, when are you going to go?"

Du Chen hesitated and he said, "Let's talk about it this Friday."

He was a little cowardly, Du Chen was afraid to see complaints in Ruan Yu's eyes.

But the heavens testified that he had never contacted Fu Xun since he went abroad to study... Du Chen didn't know what his guilty conscience was.

The secretary replied "yes", then respectfully stepped back and closed the office door.

He stared at the computer in a daze. The memo on his phone reminded him that it was time to see a psychiatrist.

Du Chen felt a little reluctant to move.

Although he often has some messy dreams now, he even seems to have suffered from psychosis not long ago, daydreaming, and inexplicably went to a place he didn't know.

But he didn't want to see a doctor.

Perhaps he also vaguely felt that it might be useless to see a doctor.

The sights in his dreams were strange, sometimes things that happened in the past, sometimes just dreams.

Sometimes the self in the dream is human, and sometimes it seems not.

Chen Du could have three or four dreams at night, but most of the time he couldn't recall what he dreamed.

It's just that every time he wake up, he always had headache and it's uncomfortable.

He insisted that he was not sick and just needed to rest.

Du Chen had another concern why he didn't want to see a psychiatrist.

There are so many reasons for a mentally unstable CEO to be criticized.

Chen Du worked so hard to sleep for six hours a day, but he didn't want to let him down at a young age because of this.

Just when he was thinking about whether to go to sleep or read two more emails in the free time for the doctor's visit, his phone rang.

It was his personal cell phone that rang.

This phone was originally bought to answer Ruan Yu's phone calls.

When they first got married, Du Chen was so busy that his feet couldn't touch the ground every day. He didn't go home often, he was reading reports in his dreams, and his mobile phone calls were never interrupted.

Nine times out of ten, Ruan Yu's calls were ignored.

Although the two of them called and couldn't say anything, Du Chen went to buy a new number. He then told his family and friends the number one after another.

There are only about twenty people who know this number and the line will not be busy if you think about it.

But later Ruan Yu didn't call him often.

Probably because there is nothing to say.

What is there to say? I'm old and married, and I don't have any feelings. I've said all the things I can say a few years ago.

Chen Du has always thought so.

But for some unknown reason, when the phone vibrated, he actually hoped that the name written on it was "Ruan Yu".

Unfortunately not.

The caller is his father's wife, the note shows "Aunt Zhao".

Aunt Zhao's name is Zhao Ying. The reason why she is called Auntie is because he is not Du Chen's biological mother.

Du Chen's biological father was a young master who was raised by a professor at Yeji University.

From this, his father Chen Zhuo is obviously not a good person.

Maybe it was deliberately not wearing a condom, the young master gave birth to Chen Du less than eight years ago.

In the same year, Chen Zhuo married his current wife, the only daughter of a not-so-great drug merchant.

The new wife, also known as Aunt Zhao in Du Chen's mouth, is an Omega with impaired fertility. So, Chen Zhuo tied a knot in order to show his sincerity.

Chen Du was fortunate enough to be Chen Zhuo's only child. Zhao Ying regarded him as his own child.

It's just that Du Chen never called her mother.

In all fairness, the stepmother regarded him as her own, not pretending.

Du Chen just couldn't get past his own level, from then on, "the family lived happily together".

So what should he do with his biological father who died early?

So he had to stay silent and resist.

When Du Chen was a child, because of this, he was slapped by Chen Zhuo in front of Zhao Ying's father.

Chen Zhuo probably took his face as a military order, and turned over his loyalty to his father-in-law after one hit.

He used this to show how much he loves his second wife.

As expected, Zhao Ying's father was very satisfied with this son-in-law, and handed over the family company to Chen Zhuo a hundred years later.

This is the prototype of Huakang.

In his life, Du Chen looked down on his father, the kind of person who used his wife to climb up the ladder. In the end, he did not expect to repeat his father's old path by accident.

Whether it was his initiative or not, Ruan Yu family's property did fall into his hands.

Du Chen has a lot of opinion on Chen Zhuo, but Zhao Ying has no opinion. On the contrary, he is very sympathetic to her and has a good attitude towards his stepmother.

Therefore, every time Chen Zhuo wanted to mess with something, he always contacted him through his stepmother.

I think it will be the same this time.

As he thought, Zhao Ying routinely took care of his body, talked about a lot of things and finally asked hesitantly: "You know, grandma is going to have her 70th birthday."

Chen Du really didn't think about it.

His biological father was in poor health, and later passed away. Du Chen was brought up by his grandmother, so the two grandfathers and grandchild had a deep relationship.

In this home, Du Chen's only fear might be his grandmother.

Du Chen rubbed his brows and said, "I'll go back."

Zhao Ying continued, "It's just that grandma still doesn't know that you're divorced. You know, she likes Ruan Yu very much... Recently I've been asking Xiaoyu why he didn't come."

Grandma is not in good health, the elderly are getting older and can't stand stimulation. So everyone invariably concealed the news of Ruan Yu and Du Chen's divorce from her.

Chen Du probably understood her overtones, but he didn't make a statement. Zhao Ying had no choice but to get straight to the point and ask tentatively.

"Can you call Xiaoyu back for grandma's birthday banquet?"

"Sorry, I don't think this is appropriate." Du Chen replied after thinking.

As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others. If Chen Du was Ruan Yu, he would definitely not be willing to attend the birthday banquet of his ex-husband's grandmother.

Looking distressed, Zhao Ying frowned on the phone. "If you don't want to tell him, let me contact him."

It's not that she didn't know that this request was embarrassing, Zhao Ying just calculated that Ruan Yu would not refuse to agree if she tried. After all, that kid would never reject anyone.

Du Chen's tone gradually became cold: "I don't care if this is your or father's idea. I don't want you to go beyond me to contact Ruan Yu. Don't disturb him. I will explain it to my grandma in person."

Zhao Ying was silent on the other side of the phone. Sometimes she really can't understand Du Chen.

He said that he didn't like Ruan Yu but every time he protected him, he was very energetic. He said he likes it, but he doesn't seem to put people at ease...

It's even a double standard.

He himself made Ruan Yu sad and turned a blind eye. When others made Ruan Yu unhappy, he growled, like a dog that protects food and a wolf.

I always feel like he's not bad for people.

She don't know what she thought of suddenly, Chen Du suddenly asked her: "Have you been happy for so many years?"

Zhao Ying was speechless when he asked, not knowing what he meant, so she could only say: "Life is good now..."

"...you know that's not what I meant," he whispered.

Zhao Ying did not answer.

Probably because she was silent for too long, Du Chen hung up the phone and a busy tone came from the receiver.

Zhao Ying had no choice but to put down the phone.

Chen Zhuo hummed from his nose, "Nizi! How could I raise such a white-eyed wolf."

He was half paralyzed when he was less than fifty. His speech was extremely difficult and his saliva couldn't stop flowing out.

A typical image of a stroke patient.

But if it wasn't for Chen Zhuo's sudden stroke, his properties would not have been handed over to Du Chen early.

Zhao Ying smiled helplessly, took out the handkerchief she had prepared for a long time and wiped his saliva.

"So children are all debts. The little Du will understand your painstaking efforts in the future... Okay, don't be angry. Now, the doctor said you have to maintain a good attitude."

Chen Zhuo grumbled something, lay down on the bed reluctantly, closed his eyes and began to rest.

Maybe still in the dream recalling the glorious past years.

But all of this has nothing to do with Ruan Yu.

He frowned slightly and sat cross-legged in front of the computer desk. He was covered with a quilt and was on fire.

From a distance he looks like a round, fluffy cloud.

Ruan Yu is checking "Can pregnant people take fluoxetine", but the answers on Baidu are inconsistent.

Some said to take it as usual, some said that children who eat too much are prone to heart disease, which makes him hesitant. Thinking about whether to stop the drug for two days, then go to the hospital to ask the doctor.

Suddenly, Ruan Yu felt like a fool.

What's the use of looking for Dr. Wang Cunkou on Baidu if you can't search for literature on CNKI for this kind of medical problem?

He opened CNKI and spent 6 yuan to download the literature. The literature was clear, and there were examples of various medication data. The result was that it had a little impact, but it was not recommended to stop the medication.

At this moment, the dog put the medicine bottle he didn't know where he found at Ruan Yu's feet and barked at him.

Ruan Yu looked back at it, the dog raised his big watery eyes and looked at him expectantly, as if urging him to take medicine quickly.

Ruan Yu had taken medicine with him before, so Puppy probably remembered it.

Therefore, even if his dog no longer needs to take anti-inflammatory drugs, he will always squat down at his narration every day before going to bed and concentrate on watching him take the medicine.

Until it is confirmed that he has finished taking the medicine, he will obediently go to sleep.

So Ruan Yu's heart inevitably softened.

He bent over, took the dog into his arms, scratched its chin lightly. The husky narrowed his eyes comfortably, revealing a soft belly.

With a slight smile on Ruan Yu's face, she said softly to it, "Thank you Cub, for helping me get the medicine."

Ruan Yu's palm covered Du Chen's forehead, then he kissed his dog's head across the back of his hand.

Chen Du was stunned for a moment.

He was happy one moment, then depressed the next.

You said it would be great if I could change back to a human now.
