Chapter 34

    Chen Du is a little tired.

    This is actually quite normal. When he gets along with Ruan Yu, he often feels tired. But it seems a little different.

    He used to feel tired because of Ruan Yu... He didn't want to admit it, but he knew that he was actually ashamed of him. So I don't want to face it.

    Now. For the first time, he had the kind of tiredness that was useless no matter how hard he tried.

    It's a kind of exhaustion.

    Du Chen thought, just let him go. After a while, he shook his head again.

    It's easy to be vulnerable at night, and it's really not a good time to make decisions.

    He went to the bathroom to wash up. He couldn't help holding his lungs and bent over to cough, feeling as if he was about to cough up blood.

    Du Chen took out a few cold medicines and swallowed them.

    As a result, it was inevitable that the next day had a high fever.

    He couldn't remember the last time he fell ill. Du Chen was slender and wild. When he was a teenager, he went to the rooftop to play basketball with others under heavy rain. He never got sick. It seems that sitting in the office for so many years has not affected him at all.

    He was woken up by the secretary's call.

    Looking at the time, at ten o'clock in the morning, Du Chen opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

    The secretary asked, "Boss, where are you now? The meeting with Haike is coming soon."

    Haike is a foreign laboratory that developed a more effective inhibitor extract last year... Chen The governor and them have been flirting with each other for more than half a year, and finally the person in charge over there agreed to let Huakang act as an agent for the sales of this inhibitor in China.

    ...

    After a while, his voice was squeezed out of his throat like a shabby mouth organ being blown.

    "Okay, I'll be there soon. I'll take a taxi."

    The secretary was silent for a while: "Would you like to take a break?"

    "It's fine." Du Chen cleared his throat and replied.

    It's okay to say. After seeing the person, Du Chen went straight to the hospital.

    I was sent in by the secretary because I fainted.

    He didn't like hospitals, and Du Chen rarely got sick, so his initial impression of the hospital was that he was held by his father and went to the morgue to see his biological father's body.

    Covered with white cloth. Nothing was revealed.

    His father committed suicide by taking medicine, and I heard that the death was ugly.

    So, after sobering up, Du Chen went home and gave himself two days off.

    The driver asked where he was while driving.

    The driver has been unemployed lately. Because his big boss suddenly didn't need him to pick him up.

    It was because Du Chen drove the car himself, and he was going to pick Ruan Yu to and from get off work. Unless he is really busy, he hopes to pick Ruan Yu home.

    The driver didn't know where Chen Du lived now, but Chen Du was too lazy to guide him, so he said, "The one in Yingtian District."

    He was referring to an apartment located in the city center, which was kept secret and the space was not small. . Chen Du and Ruan Yu moved there directly after their divorce. In fact, he often stayed there when they were not divorced.

    Anyway, there was no Ruan Yu at home, and it was the same wherever he went.

    Although no one has lived in it for almost a month, the cleaning staff come to take care of it regularly, so the whole room looks brand new.

    Du Chen sat on the sofa and began to wait for the family doctor to come and hang water for him.

    Waiting and waiting was a little sleepy, so I couldn't help sitting on the sofa and fell asleep.

    In a daze, someone touched his forehead, Chen Du subconsciously grabbed the hand, and he touched a slender wrist.

    A woman's voice answered him: "It's me."

    Du Chen heard that it was Zhao Ying. his stepmother.

    So he slowly put his hand down again, opened his eyes, and there were three people standing in front of him.

    Doctor, assistant and Zhao Ying.

    Zhao Ying said, "Look at you, when you are sick, you don't even have someone to take care of you. It's like that."

    Du Chen didn't speak. The sudden high fever almost deprived him of his language function. He is not a talkative person himself. Just keep silent.

    So Zhao Ying asked tentatively again: "How about you still listen to your father? Find someone to accompany you?"

    Du Chen thought to himself if you could stop making trouble, but Zhao Ying also had good intentions, and it didn't make sense. He looks like a white-eyed wolf himself.

    So he suppressed the irritability in his heart, and weakly replied: "No." The

    family doctor began to come over for a skin test and smeared alcohol on the back of his hand.

    He took a sip of warm water and slowly raised his eyes to look at Zhao Ying: "Why are you here?"

    Zhao Ying replied softly, "Come to the company to see, but you just happened to be away, the assistant said you were sick, I will let you He brought me with him."

    "...Well." Du Chen didn't know what kind of expression he should put on for a while.

    The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while.

    "Should I stay and take care of you?" Zhao Ying continued to ask.

    Du Chen still shook his head silently: "Thank you, I will hire a nurse."

    Zhao Ying has been his stepmother for 20 years. Although he is not close to Du Chen, he can still discern Du Chen's emotions.

    When is it really unwilling, and when is it stubborn by yourself.

    Chen Du didn't like her very much when he was a child, and hated his father more. He has a good temper, and every time the father and son quarrel, Zhao Ying persuades them in the middle.

    However, her reconciliation did not bring him his gratitude. Every time Du Chen saw her, he still raised his eyebrows.

    The temper is getting weirder.

    Sometimes Zhao Ying thinks that she is not his biological mother at all, so that's what she means. She doesn't need this child to retire anyway.

    Just one day, Du Chen directly fought with his father. A child, how can he have any strength, he is less than 1.6 meters tall, with thin arms and thin legs, and the fluff on his face has not receded.

    But Chen Zhuo was still angry and smashed the ashtray on top of his head.

    So Chen Du slammed the door without turning his head and left, and didn't come back until it was dark.

    Zhao Ying asked him, "Would you like to look for it?"

    Chen Zhuo said directly, "I won't die."

    "What you said," Zhao Ying couldn't help frowning, "Aren't you afraid of an accident?"

    Chen Zhuo laughed He smiled: "Then it's fine to adopt one. You can also adopt it from your relatives, and you can still have a blood relationship with you. It's better than adopting him."

    Chen Zhuo said this very indifferently, but Zhao Ying felt A little chill.

    Because Zhao Ying heard it, he really didn't care about Du Chen's life or death. This is true for his own son, so what about the people around him?

    She has been unable to be a mother all her life because of her physical defects.

    Therefore, the only bit of maternal love she had left, basically fell on Du Chen.

    Song Ping was not there that day, she went out to look for it with the servants at home. The old house is located in the suburbs. Apart from driving, there is only one bus a day.

    After a final turn, Zhao Ying found someone in the park, in the auditorium of the open-air stadium.

    This kid still remembered to bring mosquito repellent toilet water when he ran away from home, Zhao Ying wanted to laugh a little at that moment. However, Du Chen's sitting position holding his knees and knees looked a little pitiful, so she couldn't laugh anymore.

    She sat down beside Chen Du, and

    Zhao Ying asked him, "Do you want to go back?"

    "..." Du Chen raised his head and glanced at him, with the lights on the side of the road reflected in his eyes, and then replied: "No."

    "When you go to junior high school, you can choose to live on campus." Zhao Ying said.

    Chen Du did not answer.

    "Go back with me now?"

    She took Chen Du's arm, trying to pull him up. But was taken away.

    "Don't touch me." The child's voice was a little muffled, not changing, and still a little milky.

    Even Zhao Ying was a little annoyed that the child didn't appreciate it.

    Then, in the next second, she heard Du Chen's voice: "My leg is numb, it hurts...you wait." There was a flash of shame and anger on her face.

    The next day after taking Du Chen home, Zhao Ying received a card. It came in through the crack of the door.

    There were three words on it: "Thank you."

    Probably from then on, Zhao Ying understood that she probably couldn't be ruthless and really didn't care about the child. Even now that he has grown up.

    So, now, Zhao Ying is sitting next to him like a mistress, holding up the grace that has been consistent for more than 40 years, and said: "Then please invite me, but I will not leave unless you find someone to take me Get out."

    Chen Du didn't speak any more.

    ***

    Ruan Yu's first day at Fu Xun's house.

    slept all day. In the evening, when he was hungry, Fu Xun led him out to eat grilled fish. This greasy and unhealthy food never made it into Ruan Yu's family's health-preserving recipe. Ruan Yu ate it for the first time, and her eyes narrowed with joy.

    Ruan Yu was a little shorter than Fu Xun, and it was inappropriate to wear Fu Xun's clothes, so Fu Xun led him to buy a few sets of clothes at night.

    At the beginning, I only said that I would buy a set. As a result, I wandered around, buying more and more. If Ruan Yu didn't stop me, I would probably empty the clothing store's inventory.

    The clerk kept saying that the couple had a good relationship - Fu Xun dug up the glands by himself, and it probably smelled like Beta.

    Ruan Yu explained with a blushing face, while Fu Xun smiled and said nothing.

    ——Fu Xun even wanted to buy him women's clothes! If it wasn't for Ruan Yu's firm will, he would have made his debut in women's clothing on Fu Xun's Weibo tomorrow.

    Fu Xun is the CEO of Changfeng in his main business, and he is an internet celebrity in his side business. People call him husband every day on Weibo.

    Ruan Yu's second day at Fu Xun's house.

    Went to and from get off work with Fu Xun, and came back to have dinner together.

    ... that was halfway through and was kicked out of the kitchen by Fu Xun. And was complained, "Dogs can't eat the food you fucking cook, please spare my mouth."

    Ruan Yu wanted to refute it, but after thinking about it, every time between the dog food and the dog rice he made by himself In the meantime, the puppy always chooses dog food, so he had to shut his mouth glumly.

    This made Ruan Xiaoyu feel that she was eating and drinking too much, so she felt a little guilty.

    Ruan Yu's third day at Fu Xun's house.

    Ruan Yu took a shower, and Fu Xun excitedly raised the hairdryer and said that he would blow his hair.

    Ruan Yu thought about it, but did not refuse.

    Just accidentally, I remembered that when he hadn't run away from home a few days ago, Du Chen did the same thing, blowing his hair for him.

    So Ruan Yu was dumbfounded, and didn't even hear what Fu Xun was saying.

    It was not until Fu Xun waved his palm in front of his eyes that Ruan Yu woke up a little like a dream.

    Fu Xun asked him with a smile, "What are you thinking? Secretary Ruan."

    Ruan Yu looked at Fu Xun and felt aggrieved for some reason.

    In fact, he also felt that his grievance was unreasonable. After all, he said "let me calm down" first, and he was arrogant like a little cock when he left.

    Ruan Yu glanced at Fu Xun, then lowered her head and whispered, "Why hasn't he come to pick me up?"
