Unscrupulous Rebirth

"Ah, why don't you come here, you're so lazy this winter vacation..." Lu Kunde lay on the sofa and called Tong Ke, discussing who's house to play.

Lu Kunde reached for an apple and took a bite, and said vaguely: "No, no...you come here, come with Yu Haofeng, Xiaojun and his hotel brought some sea cucumbers, and he brought some good ones back ..."

"He said to make mutton and sea cucumber soup...to nourish the kidney, um...you need it, come on."

"Okay, no need..."

Lu Kunde hung up the phone, got up and walked to the study, leaning against the door frame and said to Lu Jun, "I called, they are coming at noon."

"Hmm." Lu Junqiang didn't know what document he was looking at, and said without raising his head, "Got it, I'll cook later."

Lu Kunde hummed and turned on the computer to play games.

Before noon, Yu Haofeng and Tong Ke came. Tong Ke's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the door: "Sea cucumber! Sea cucumber! I haven't eaten it yet!"

Lu Kunde smiled: "I'm doing it, sit down for a while."

After Tong Ke changed his shoes, he hugged Qian Duoduo and started to roll. After the meal was finished, he got up and washed his hands.

The rice was cooked by Yu Haofeng for Lu Junqiang. It was naturally delicate and delicious. Tong Ke ate hard and did not speak.

Yu Haofeng said: "Have you read the news? Recently, SARS has caused quite a stir."

Lu Kunde and Lu Junqiang looked at each other and smiled, Lu Kunde said: "You are a doctor, are you scared?"

Yu Haofeng shook his head and smiled: "How come, it may not be able to reach us, the news may be demonized, I hope it will not spread widely, otherwise...hospitals, restaurants, schools..."

Lu Jun straightened his chopsticks, thought for a while and mocked, "Central TV's news will be demonized? Haha... I think it is very likely that there will be a nationwide infection, but it's nothing, sooner or later the drug will be developed."

Yu Haofeng nodded: "I hope to be more optimistic. If the infection really affects us, there will be no guests in your hotel."

Lu Jun said strongly: "I know, I'm ready to deal with it."

Tong Ke raised his head: "Where's the sea cucumber?"

"I'll serve it." Lu Junqiang stood up and went to the kitchen to serve the soup. Lu Kunde and Tong Ke waited with bright eyes.

……

Lu Junqiang was still too optimistic. By April, the first case of atypical pneumonia infection appeared in the city. With the first case, it was like dominoes being pushed down, and the number of infected people was like Explosively rapid increase.

For a while, everyone was in danger, shopping frantically, hoarding food, buying disinfectant, watering cans, masks... The associated price hikes caused even greater panic.

There are very few people on the street on weekdays, and everyone starts to pay attention to the news and newspapers, nervous about the number of patients found in the city that day, and the streets where they were found.

Since the first infected patient was found in the city in April, public places such as hotels immediately became deserted. Demeijia was still full of guests in March, and now it is also deserted. Fortunately, Demeijia has always been known for its clean and hygienic services. In the hearts of the citizens, it is a place that can be trusted, and it can barely be maintained, so that it will not be able to make ends meet.

Lu Junqiang sat behind the table and frowned slightly. The situation exceeded his expectations by a lot.Lu Junqiang rubbed his forehead irritably, and heard the sound of Lu Kunde entering the door.

"Xiaojun! I'm back."

Lu Junqiang walked into the living room and asked suspiciously, "Why is brother back at this time? There is no class?"

Lu Kunde leaned on the door a little hesitant, scratched his hair and said: "Our school... said to close the school, let's clean it up first... it will be closed for classes, and the school will be closed tonight. back home."

Lu Junqiang added another level of irritability when he heard the words, and said impatiently: "What school is closed? Only thirty or so cases were found in the city. As for closing the school?! It's not a candidate for the college entrance examination."

Lu Kunde received the notice from the supervisor in the morning, and he didn't want to do this in his heart. At the beginning, the closure of the school had to wait until the epidemic situation stabilized before it could recover. At least it was two months, and we couldn't see each other for two months...

"Isn't there no way to do this? The instructor said not to make special arrangements. Everyone must stay in the school and wait... until the city's illness has passed before it can be opened normally... It is also because the students will come in and out every day. When the virus comes in, it's over...the population density is so large."

When Lu Junqiang heard this, he became even more anxious: "You also know that the population density is high. What if you get infected? I can't see you either. Who knows that your school's disinfection is not thorough? Only the students are closed? What about the teachers? Those What about the staff in the cafeteria? What if they have the virus?!"

Lu Kunde didn't know what to say for a while, of course he had thought about these things, but the school's regulations are always for the sake of the overall situation.

"No, I don't agree, give me your instructor's phone number! I want to talk to him, or you take me to school and I will find him..." Lu Junqiang was about to get dressed and get his wallet, and Lu Kunde immediately said anxiously: "I You're not a primary school student, what kind of teacher are you looking for! There's no way to accommodate the school's death rules."

Lu Kunde took a step forward and hugged Lu Junqiang, buried his face on his shoulder, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Be reasonable, I wanted to come back and have a good talk with you, but after hearing the notice at school, I will I miss you all the time, I can't think about it..."

Lu Junqiang sighed, raised his arms to embrace Lu Kunde, and said for a while, "You really won't let me go to school?"

Lu Kunde didn't speak, but shook his head slightly.Lu Junqiang closed his eyes for a while, let go of Lu Kunde, and said indifferently: "Then let me help you pack your things." After finishing speaking, he turned and went to the bedroom to prepare Lu Kunde's clothes, disinfectant tissues, disinfectant, etc.

Lu Kunde looked at Lu Junqiang's back and knew that he was angry, but he couldn't help it. He couldn't be as strong as Lu Junqiang. Following the overall situation was his usual way of doing things, and he didn't want Lu Junqiang to argue with the instructor.

On the way to send Lu Kunde back to school, Lu Junqiang didn't say a word, his beautiful light-colored thin lips were pursed all the time.

Lu Kunde felt uncomfortable looking at the meticulous and thoughtful things that Lu Junqiang had prepared for him. He wanted to talk to Lu Junqiang several times but was scared away by his cold face, and the two of them went to the gate of Xingbang University silently.

At the door, there were several staff armed to the teeth testing the temperature of the students who entered one by one. Lu Kunde glanced at the door and whispered: "Go back first, there are many people on this road."

Lu Junqiang lowered his head slightly, took a dozen of money and stuffed it into the pocket of Lu Kunde's jacket, and said in a deep voice, "Call me every day, don't go to crowded places, my dormitory is often disinfected."

Lu Kunde nodded, and whispered, "You too, I went in."

Lu Junqiang handed the wrapped things to Lu Kunde and watched him enter the school.

After Lu Kunde went to school, Lu Junqiang didn't bother to go home, and he didn't have time to work. He often left the office to eat something downstairs when he was hungry and had a stomachache. After eating, he went back to work.

At the regular meeting on Friday, Wu Hao swallowed hard at the first Lu Junqiang who had a gloomy expression on his face, and said, "Mr. Lu, the people from Tianyuan Tours called today...there are no tourists for the time being. We usually give The standard room they reserved will be left unused."

Wu Hao has always been in touch with the Tianyuan Travelers. Wu Hao negotiated with them all morning but there was no result. In the end, he could only frown and tell Lu Junqiang. Everyone knows that the boss is in a bad mood recently, and Wu Hao is also a little flustered.

"Well, within reason, I don't blame you."

Lu Junqiang's cell phone rang, and Lu Junqiang took a look: Brother.

Lu Junqiang pressed it casually, took this week's report, and said in a deep voice: "In this special period, everyone has worked hard, and the business commission has been reduced, but we still have to work hard. The epidemic..."

Lu Kunde called again. Wu Hao was the closest to Lu Junqiang. He saw Lu Kunde at a glance, and quickly said, "Boss, answer it first."

Lu Junqiang pressed it off again, and scolded with a sullen face: "I can only answer calls from business customers during the meeting, forgot?!"

Wu Hao was a little bored, and said in a dazed voice, "Got it, I'll pay attention next time." At the same time, he didn't know who had answered Lu Kunde's calls countless times during the meeting.

Lu Junqiang continued to boost morale for a long time with a vicious look on his face, but he was helplessly resentful, and several managers all had SARS faces.Lu Junqiang also felt that it was boring, so he broke up after summing up.

After the regular meeting was over and there was a private meeting, Wu Hao and Yu Dan went to Lu Junqiang's office to be punished for a long time, during which Lu Junqiang hung up on several calls from Lu Kunde.

After explaining everything, Lu Junqiang breathed a sigh of relief, turned on the TV and tuned to the city's radio station, watching the daily epidemic reports tiredly.

Lu Jun stood up abruptly, picked up his phone, picked up his coat and rushed out.

Wu Hao looked at the TV in bewilderment. The screen was bustling with students. The female anchor reported with a straight face: "This afternoon, Xingbang University found three suspected cases of atypical pneumonia, and they have been sent to the city hospital. The remaining nearly [-] people who have been in contact with him are being quarantined..."

When Lu Junqiang arrived at Xingbang University, his face turned pale in a hurry, and he called Lu Kunde several times, but the phone was turned off, and Lu Junqiang was anxious to rush in directly.

A cordon has been set up outside Xingbang University, and dozens of people in protective clothing maintain order.

"Let me in!! My brother is inside, and I'm here to pick him up..." Lu Junqiang couldn't tell the guards at the door clearly, and couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman in the protective clothing. He wanted to beat him up. Fist, "You guys! There are already patients here, I want to take my brother back!"

A few people came out to grab Lu Junqiang, and shouted: "Calm down! Those who have been in contact with the patient have been quarantined, and we can't see them! The students who haven't been in contact with the patient will go home today, and they will go home after they pass the inspection." It's time to come out."

Lu Junqiang pushed away the person who was pulling him, pulled open his collar suddenly, revealing his reddened chest, took out his mobile phone and continued to call Lu Kunde, or turned it off, then remembered that he could still call Tong Ke .

When they called, they were in the middle of a call. Lu Junqiang was so anxious that he was about to explode. He called several times before he got connected. He hurriedly said, "Tong Ke! Where's my brother?"
