make do

Yan Chen and Lu Hongsheng, including Wang Xiaoman, have no special connection.I have been married to Lv Xuyi for seven years, except for the first year when I sat together for a meal during the Spring Festival, they seldom sit together for a meal at other times.

Probably because Yan Chen and Lu Xuyi were too busy, but more because Yan Chen felt uncomfortable.

It's not that Lu Hongsheng and Wang Xiaoman have prejudices against him, it's more that Yan Chen can't fit into this family of three.When staying with them, I always feel extra redundant.

It's a strange feeling and I can't find a reason for it.Perhaps there is also a reason why Yan Chen is not sociable.

But no matter what the reason is, it is a fact that he and Lu Xuyi have never met since they were married until they divorced.

Occasionally, it coincides with a holiday, and when they are free, they go back to their respective homes and find their own mothers.

Yan Chen chose to keep a respectful distance from this family that he could not integrate into. Lu Xuyi expressed his understanding, and they just lived their lives as if nothing had happened.Perhaps this is also the difference between heterosexual marriage and same-sex marriage. The so-called relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not particularly important in their eyes.

This time Lu Hongsheng took the initiative to interview, especially in such a special period, no matter what the reason was, Yan Chen had no reason to refuse.Even if Lu Hongsheng wanted to beat him up when they met, he could only bear it.

Lu Hongsheng was a military ruffian, and Yan Chen also knew that people like Lu Hongsheng hated western-style coffee shops the most, so he called and booked a teahouse.

After finally waiting for Shen Cheng to get off work at noon, Yan Chen casually fooled Cheng Yang away, changed his clothes, left a note and hurried to the small teahouse where he met.

The small teahouse is located in a quiet old street. It is said that three generations of the owner's ancestors have made a living by running teahouses.Yan Chen didn't care whether he had been in business for three generations, he just thought that this small teahouse was quiet, and Lu Hongsheng would probably like it, so he booked this place.

As soon as the door of the box was pushed open, the inside was filled with the smell of tea and smog. Lu Hongsheng was sitting upright by the window, and his cold eyes shot straight at Yan Chen.Although graying was already visible on the temples and his facial features were relatively aged, it was still possible to see that his eyebrows and eyes resembled Lu Xuyi's. For a moment, Yan Chen was a little dazed.

"Come?" When Lu Hongsheng opened his mouth, Yan Chen woke up from his dream, and the person in front of him was not Lu Xuyi.

While taking off his mask and hat, he patted the snowflakes on his coat, Yan Chen bowed respectfully, and greeted: "Hi Uncle, the road is snowy, so it's a bit late."

Lu Hongsheng waved his hand, signaling Yan Chen to sit down, then picked up the teapot in front of him, and poured Yan Chen a cup of fragrant tea.

"Thank you." Yan Chen took the thank you, bowed his head and took a sip, and didn't speak anymore, just waiting for Lu Hongsheng to speak first.

His probing and contemplative eyes stared nakedly at Yan Chen's body, even though he felt uncomfortable all over, Yan Chen could only pretend to be nonchalant.

"My old man once asked me, 'Can love be eaten', and I answered 'yes'." After a long time, Lu Hongsheng said something without beginning or end.

Yan Chen was puzzled, but he didn't interrupt.

Lu Hongsheng continued: "Actually, I also understood at the time that love can be eaten, but at least it won't kill people. Now I understand it more thoroughly. Without this thing, it is really possible to die. No, it's only half an hour." Yue, both you and Xiao Yi have lost weight."

The hand holding the teacup paused slightly, Yan Chen did not speak, and continued to wait for Lu Hongsheng's next words.

"What you young people are thinking, we old people can't control it. It's like seven years ago, I suddenly received a call from my own son, and he told me on the phone that he married a man. After half a year A month ago, that kid also called me to inform me that he was divorced." Years of high position and power have cultivated Lu Hongsheng's intimidation and self-indignation.Unlike at home, Lv Hongsheng on the tea table is the same as on the conference table. It is clearly a simple sentence, and he can often hear questions from it.

Yan Chen's forehead was sweating slightly, and his throat was itchy. Talking to Lu Hongsheng was really exhausting.Recently, Yan Chen's spirit has been getting worse and worse, but at this moment he also has to cheer up 12 points in order to make himself look comfortable and at ease.

"So, now I may take the liberty to ask, what is the reason why the person who married you so desperately is now divorcing you?" This sentence was directly questioned by Lu Hongsheng.

There was gloom in Lv Hongsheng's eyes, and the unhappiness in his heart was revealed on his face, without the slightest concealment.

Yan Chen could also guess the purpose of Lu Hongsheng's trip, so he was not surprised by Lu Hongsheng's questioning.

The itching of the throat could not be stopped after all, Yan Chen turned his head and coughed a few times, his face, which was red from the heating just now, instantly turned pale, and the color of his lips also gradually turned white.Lv Hongsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Yan Chen's pale face, and seeing Yan Chen's appearance, he put down a little bit of the unhappiness on his face.

After coughing, Yan Chen couldn't see his face at this time, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, "I think you don't know, uncle, I was not the one who first proposed divorce."

Yan Chen raised his head and looked at Lu Hongsheng's expression. Seeing that he didn't have much expression, he continued: "It's hard to talk about feelings. At first I thought about keeping them, but what's the use? Both of us don't care. Together, being together will only increase troubles, and sometimes letting go is the wisest choice."

"So you divorced him resolutely, and quit the entertainment circle that he paved the way for?" Lu Hongsheng's eyes turned cold, and he said lightly.

"It's good for me and him to be separated from him." Yan Chen nodded, "But quitting the entertainment industry was my idea early on. Thanks to Uncle and Lu...Xuyi, my starting point for entering this industry is better than others High, but the more I go up, the more I feel idle and bored. Until a while ago, I finally figured it out. It has nothing to do with Lu Xuyi’s divorce, I’m just tired and want to see other insights.”

"Heh..." Lu Hongsheng chuckled lightly, "That stupid son of mine is really stupid. First, he entered the entertainment circle wishfully because of you, and now he quit the entertainment circle because of you. In the end, you are all because of yourself. You are so selfish." Lu Hongsheng concluded.

Yan Chen's eyes drooped slightly, and he didn't care what Lu Hongsheng was thinking, so he picked up his teacup and sipped it.

"Tsk... People like to mess around when they are old. I don't think there is any need for us to talk anymore. I don't want to know why you divorced my stupid son. I just hope that from now on In the future, stay away from my stupid son. Don't give him so-called hope and kick him away again." Lu Hongsheng said lightly, without hiding the threat in his words.

"It's your reward for using my name for the past seven years." In the end, Lu Hongsheng remained condescending as always.

Yan Chen didn't speak, and Lu Hongsheng didn't wait for Yan Chen to reply, he got up and walked out of the box as soon as he finished speaking.The door of the box was not closed, there was no heating in the corridor, the cold wind blew in from the open window in the corridor, Yan Chen's vest was half cold.

Their conversation broke up badly.Yan Chen didn't want to explain anything, it didn't matter how Lu Hongsheng misunderstood or thought about it.He no longer has the energy to greet other people's thoughts, and everything he does now is to hide Lu Xuyi.As long as Lu Xuyi doesn't know or understand, everything will be fine.

When we got back to the hospital, the lights were already on, and the snow was getting thicker and denser. On this romantic Christmas Eve, it was not so easy to stop a taxi.It was too cold to stand there waiting for the car, so Yan Chen had no choice but to hail a taxi while walking, but he accidentally walked more than half of the way before successfully hailing a taxi.

Yan Chen, suffering from hunger and cold, hadn't returned to the ward smoothly, when he met Shen Cheng with a cold face in the corridor.

"Where have you been?" No matter what the place is, Yan Chen left without saying hello and successfully angered Shen Cheng.Seeing that he was only wearing a thin overcoat, and his hair was still mixed with dew, Shen Cheng was completely annoyed at Yan Chen's irresponsible attitude towards him.

"Uncle Shen...cough cough cough..." Yan Chen was about to explain a few words, but he didn't want to cough directly, Shen Cheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Your blood test report has come out. The white blood cells in the blood not only did not decrease but increased, and none of the volunteers who came for further matching today had an HLA of [-] points. Yan Chen, what is waiting for you is to receive chemotherapy immediately. You are still leaving the hospital privately in this snowy day? Do you know that for leukemia patients, it is often a simple cold that can cause serious infections! You are already an adult, Yan Chen! You can’t treat yourself Are you more responsible for your life?" Shen Cheng was completely annoyed, and he didn't think about whether it was appropriate or inappropriate for him to say these words, at this moment he was not only Yan Chen's attending doctor, but also Yan Chen's guardian.

Yan Hongwen was kept in the dark, and only he knew all of this.He was forced to bear the burden of a person's life, but this person didn't take his own life seriously.Apart from the monstrous anger, Shen Cheng was also extremely angry at his dereliction of duty.

"...I'm sorry..." Yan Chen covered his mouth and coughed, at the same time, he felt his nasal cavity heat up, and the warm liquid remained, bright red and dazzling.

Yan Chen felt that the world was spinning, and then he fell into a coma.In the dimness, it seemed to hear a familiar voice—"Xiao Chen!"
