Chapter 43 Warm Spring

Su Zhaoxi's illness was quite serious. He went to the hospital for two days because of a fever and was hanged with salt water for two days. Afterwards, the fever subsided, but the cold was still not healed, and he started to cough and runny nose again. It has not been put on the agenda.Su Zhaoxi looked impatient, and when he got better, he would worry about the decoration.

For such a store, it will take some time to renovate, not to mention the subsequent purchase of books.He went to several decoration companies before choosing the decoration style. They told him that it would take at least half a month to complete the decoration. If he could accept it, he would pay the money now, and the decoration workers would come to the door with tools in the afternoon. Su Zhaoxi agreed.

The source of the book is easy to discuss, just discuss it with the publisher.As soon as he was sick, he ran around outside, worried every day and didn't play, and as expected, he was tired again at night and developed a fever, and his cold worsened. He was lying on the bed and felt aggrieved.

"Let you run around, you're sick again." Xu Mu poured him a glass of water and asked him to take medicine.

"I don't want to open the bookstore earlier." His voice was hoarse, and it was a bit difficult to speak.

"You can't wait a few more days, you have to be so impatient." Xu Mu felt sorry for him.Su Zhaoxi's tired eyes were bloodshot, her voice was still hoarse, but she was always worried, and her illness was not getting better.

"Sleep or not, don't talk about me, I have a headache." Su Zhaoxi drank the medicine, put the cup on the bedside, and retracted into the quilt.Xu Mu put the cup on the table beside him, so that Su Zhaoxi would not be swept down when he raised his legs dishonestly in the middle of the night. He did this kind of thing before, but what fell was not a cup, but a small charging lamp.

Xu Mu didn't know how he slept, the bedside table was at the head, and when he raised his legs, he could sweep the things off it, which was a difficult sleeping position to do.

Su Zhaoxi had already fallen asleep, but he didn't sleep well. His nose was blocked and he could only breathe with his mouth open, and his lips were a little dry.Xu Mu took a few cotton swabs and moistened them with water and wiped his lips to make him feel better.After finishing these, he also lay on the bed next to Su Zhaoxi and gradually fell asleep.

After a week, Su Zhaoxi recovered from his illness, but he still had a little sequelae of coughing.He was going to the bookstore to check the progress today, and wanted to sleep again when he came back, so he left early.

When he arrived at the bookstore, he choked on the wall plaster as soon as he entered the door, his throat itched and he coughed. The decoration worker turned around when he heard the voice, and greeted him when he saw him: "Boss Su is here."

Su Zhaoxi coughed so hard that his throat hurt, and he spoke smoothly with his hands: "I'll come over to see the progress."

The workers were painting the walls. The walls in the shop were originally pink, but Su Zhaoxi asked him to paint them white. Now they have finished painting one side.He wandered around the house, and then went to the second floor to have a look.The view from the second floor is quite good. Although there are no floor-to-ceiling windows in the duplex where he lived, the lighting is not bad.

This store is facing the street, and outside the windows on the second floor are the street trees planted on both sides of the street. It is not yet the time for the leaves to fall, and it is a vibrant scene as far as the eye can see.He was going to turn the second floor into a living room, and then he would set up a big table at the stairway, watch the shop on the first floor during the day, and read books on the second floor at night. He really thought very well.

After walking around the store and chatting with the workers for a while, Su Zhaoxi was going back.Now the street is getting lively, the sun has risen high, all the shops are open, and the noisy voices can be heard, Su Zhaoxi smiled, and he will also belong to this street in the future.

After walking a few steps, he found Lu Yuanting's car, the only few cars that Lu Yuanting has been driving for so many years, Su Zhaoxi will not fail to recognize them.After Lu Yuanting was discovered by him, he didn't hide anymore, and honked the horn twice to signal him to get in the car. Su Zhaoxi stopped and sighed helplessly.

"What's the matter with you?" He hasn't seen Lu Yuanting for almost a month, and he's lost weight again. His complexion used to be frightening, but now it's a little fierce, making it difficult to provoke.

"You want to open a bookstore?" Although Lu Yuanting didn't come over to stare at Su Zhaoxi in person, there were quite a few people sent to follow him.They reported to Lu Yuanting every day what Su Zhaoxi did today, detailing everything, even how many hours of sleep he slept today, so even though Lu Yuanting was not by his side, he knew about him Clearly.

"That's right, I'm a small townsman, poor and short-sighted, please don't laugh at me, Mr. Lu."

"Why do you want to quit your job in the hospital?" Lu Yuanting looked at him with nostalgia in his eyes.

"I don't want to wait for my colleagues and I to tear myself apart before leaving. I want to leave a good impression on everyone." How could Lu Yuanting be present in an accident in Ji's family? This question will soon spread in the hospital, and the answer will definitely be given by them. It's wonderfully depicted.They wouldn't say it in front of Su Zhaoxi, but there was a lot of speculation behind their backs. Su Zhaoxi couldn't stand the gossip, and wanted to leave before the matter got serious, and the subsequent matters would have nothing to do with him.

"If you still want to be there, who would dare to call you?" Lu Yuanting lowered his voice. He smoked a lot these days, and his voice was already a little hoarse.

"Mr. Lu, they don't dare to say anything in front of you, but I can't bear their speculation behind the scenes. Why should I suffer such slander as an innocent surgeon?" Su Zhaoxi was a little anxious, and coughed after speaking When he got up, Lu Yuanting patted his back to ease his breath, while Su Zhaoxi pushed him away.

"Anyway, I've resigned now, and the bookstore will open soon. It's a foregone conclusion, and I don't want to change anything." Su Zhaoxi gasped, eyes full of resentment towards him.

Lu Yuanting didn't dare to persuade him anymore, he knew that Su Zhaoxi had been ill a few days ago, and now he's recovering quickly, his body hasn't recovered yet, and he's still weak.It's just that there is one thing that he really can't tolerate, and he will speak when he can't speak anymore:

"Can you move out from Xu Mu? If you don't want to go home, you can. I'll find you a house to live in."

Su Zhaoxi looked at him in disbelief: "Boss Lu, do you still care where your ex-boyfriend lives after you break up?"

Lu Yuanting patted the steering wheel violently, and his voice startled Su Zhaoxi: "I said it's impossible to break up, what are you thinking?"

"Are you interested? If you don't want to break up after all this has happened, who is disgusting?" Su Zhaoxi's temper also turned up, and his momentum was not inferior to him.

"We are married, and the divorce certificate has not yet been issued. You and Xu Mu are living together illegally now. I can sue you." Lu Yuanting threatened the marriage.

"Then you go and sue, it's best to let me go in and stay for a few years, and I'll be clean if I don't see you." Su Zhaoxi gritted her teeth, her eyes were sharp, feeling that she couldn't continue talking to him, she slammed the car door angrily and left.

After returning home, he still felt very angry. He opened the refrigerator, picked up a bottle of Coke and drank half of it, and then sat on the sofa out of breath.

Lu Yuanting is such an asshole, why didn't he realize that he is this kind of person before, it is too domineering to not let him break up even though he cheated first and made a mistake first!A selfish bastard!He was angry and beat the pillow several times to vent.

When Xu Mu came back at night, he obviously felt that something was wrong with Su Zhaoxi. In the past, even though his face was expressionless, his brows and eyes were gentle. Unlike now, his face was wrinkled together, and his slightly heaving chest seemed to be suppressing his anger.Seeing the half bottle of Coke on the coffee table again, Xu Mu understood.When Su Zhaoxi is angry, he will indulge himself. He has a tooth decay, and he will pay more attention when eating sweets. He doesn't even drink too much carbonated drinks. Today he is probably very angry.

"What's the matter, are you so angry?"

Su Zhaoxi was watching TV on the sofa with a pillow in his arms. The corners of his mouth drooped, his lips were tightly pursed, his eyes were serious, and he didn't see what he was watching at all.

"It's okay." Su Zhaoxi replied coldly.

Xu Mu sat next to him, put his arms around him tentatively, and saw that he had no intention of refusing, and then said, "Is there something wrong with the bookstore? Are you dissatisfied with their work?"

"No, I met Lu Yuanting today." Su Zhaoxi's eyes sharpened, as if he wanted to cut this person into pieces.

Xu Mu was silent for a while. He hadn't told Su Zhaoxi about Lu Yuanting's visit to the hospital. If he found out, he would probably be very angry.He went to pinch Su Zhaoxi's face, controlling the strength in his hands, trying to cheer him up:

"Don't be angry, what do you want for dinner, at home or out?"

Su Zhaoxi snorted, and scolded Lu Yuanting again in his heart, but he couldn't lose his temper with Xu Mu, Xu Mu came over to coax him, and he couldn't hold his face, so he relaxed and said, "I want to eat at home." , I want to eat two bowls of rice."

"Okay, it will definitely make you happy." Xu Mu rubbed his hair twice and went into the kitchen to cook.

Su Zhaoxi rested on the sofa for a while, thinking that the next time he sees Lu Yuanting again, he must beat him up.In his heart he kept telling himself not to be angry, it was not worth it to be angry for this kind of person, he had learned a lesson in the past six years, blamed him for not knowing people clearly, blamed him for not being good-looking, and would detour when he saw him again Walk.He is still in a fit of anger, he has not come back to his senses, just thinking about beating him up, but now he says he will take a detour when he sees him, but he didn't realize the seriousness of the inconsistency.

Su Zhaoxi swallowed the noodles made by Xu Mu at night. Did he just say he wanted to eat two bowls? How could he finish it?Seeing his expression, Xu Mu knew what he was thinking, so he brought him a chopstick dish and said, "It's fine if you're full, don't hold back if you can't eat, it's not good for your stomach."

Su Zhaoxi was so grateful for his thoughtfulness. When he was angry, he didn't care about the consequences, and often did things that he couldn't get back, which made him very embarrassed.Xu Mu seemed to be able to see through his heart, and he could guess what he wanted with just one look, as if he was his other half of the soul.

Xu Mu has liked him for several years, and the two of them often contact each other at work, and he has already clearly remembered every movement of his eyes.When it comes to the feelings for Su Zhaoxi, Xu Mu may not have paid less than Lu Yuanting, or even worked harder than him.Because Lu Yuanting can kiss and hug Su Zhaoxi openly and aboveboard, no one would doubt such feelings, and he even made a slightly intimate joke with a measure, lest Su Zhaoxi would notice something.

Now the person he holds on top of his heart has caused others to be hurt like this, and he will only let go of his guard when he is hurt. The fault of all this is that they met too late.Others can be unscrupulous, regardless of loss, but he is different. He has been cautious for several years, and it is only in exchange for the warm spring now.
