Everyone loves gruel

In recent days, Cheng Hao has always visited Lin Jiyao frequently, with a polite and docile face, and the fruits and supplements he brought filled the two small square tables that were put together.

Lin Jiyao had limited energy and couldn't bear Cheng Hao's presence in front of him all day long, especially after he said "Dad" earth-shatteringly. Lin Jiyao choked and coughed and almost passed out. Lin Xizhou who was beside him was so frightened that he pressed Bell called the nurse, then angrily pulled Cheng Hao by the collar and led him to the living room.

"Have you had enough trouble? What are you going to do?!"

"Take care of you...and him." Cheng Hao almost squeezed out the last two words from between his teeth, and it was conceivable that the 'Dad' he called just now made him sick.

Lin Xizhou rolled his eyes angrily, "I don't need you to take care of me, and neither does Lin Jiyao, so don't mess around."

Things have progressed to this point, and it is more or less like listening to fate.Neither Lin Xizhou nor Lin Chi can be regarded as the decision-makers of the company, and what decision to make is not something they should consider. To put it bluntly, their current competition is still the battle between Lin Jiyao's two brothers and Lin Jiyao. Chi was just used as two flags on the bright side.

Thinking of this, Lin Xizhou couldn't help but recall what Lin Jiyao said to him last night.

"Xiaoxi, there is actually another way, which is more straightforward and safer."

"...what is it?"

"I made a will three years ago. Lin is yours, and no one can take it away."

Lin Xizhou's face immediately changed. The will is easy to use, but there is only one prerequisite for it to take effect - that is, Lin Jiyao must die.

What a joke, how could he sacrifice his father for something that was insignificant to him?

Lin Xizhou frowned subconsciously, and cast a cold glance at Cheng Hao, "If there's nothing wrong, get out, I'm going back."

Today is the day when Lin Jiyao is undergoing chemotherapy for the second time. After this chemotherapy is over, he only needs to rest for about a week before undergoing surgery.The doctor told him in private that Lin Jiyao's chemotherapy during this period was very effective, the tumor shrunk significantly, and at the same time, the lungs were cleaned with traditional Chinese medicine, which was conducive to the success of the later operation.

After injecting the medicine needed for chemotherapy, Lin Jiyao seemed a little listless. Lin Xizhou sat by the bed and held his hand, and Cheng Hao also sat on the sofa in the corner and watched silently without saying a word.

When Lin Jiyao woke up after taking a nap, Lin Xizhou was standing at the table pouring the preserved egg and lean meat porridge Cheng Hao bought into a bowl.He wanted to speak, but he couldn't help coughing when he opened his mouth. Lin Xizhou hurried over to help him up against the bed, stuffed a soft pillow behind his back, and poured him another glass of warm water.

Lin Jiyao drank half a glass of water to moisturize his throat. Seeing Lin Xizhou looking down at him worriedly, he couldn't help but smile, raised his hand to touch his cheek, and said warmly, "Xiao Xi, have you eaten yet?"

Lin Xizhou shook his head: "I'm not too hungry, I'll eat later."

At this time, Cheng Hao came over with the porridge, and Lin Xizhou bent down to prop up the table on the bed so that he could eat easily.

Lin Jiyao patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be so busy, you can go eat too."

Lin Xizhou wanted to refuse, but suddenly someone knocked on the door and walked in. The person who came was a cousin who had a good relationship with Lin Jiyao on weekdays. His name was Qiao Chen. He had been traveling abroad before, and he also heard about it today. Lin Jiyao came back after an accident.

Lin Xizhou greeted him politely, "Cousin, good evening."

"Yo, Xiaoxi is already so tall." Qiao Chen pinched his face, glanced at Lin Jiyao as if casually, and said with a smile, "Look at this handsome girl, the girl who chases you in the future will definitely be so tall." around the globe."

As soon as these words came out, there was a strange silence in the ward. After a while, Lin Xizhou smiled awkwardly, "My cousin was joking."

Lin Jiyao, who was next to him, knocked on the table with a spoon, and said in a flat tone, "I'm reluctant to let him go, Lin Shen, stop abducting teenagers here."

Qiao Chen glared angrily, "Hey, I ran all the way back to help you, but you still—"

Lin Jiyao looked at him expressionlessly, "Why help? What can I do to help? I told you I can handle it."

Lin Xizhou saw that they were going to have an in-depth conversation, so he quickly dragged Cheng Hao out, "Cousin, please talk slowly, Cheng Hao and I are going to eat first."

After the two of them closed the door and left, Lin Shen pulled up a chair and sat down beside the hospital bed, "Tell me, what's wrong with you?"

"Lung cancer."

"I believe this," Lin Shen said, "but lung cancer is in the advanced stage? I said Lin Jiyao, others don't know about you, how can I not know? How much time and energy have you spent on health and maintenance for your precious pimple? , if it was really late stage lung cancer, how could it be delayed until now?”

Lin Jiyao pursed his lips and said nothing, Lin Shen snorted, "It's a shame that I rushed over to help you, who knows..." He lengthened his voice and squeezed Lin Jiyao maliciously. Winking, "You're having a good time."

"Moisturizing?" Lin Jiyao squinted at him, "Twice chemotherapy and one week later surgery, if you think moisturizing, you can try it yourself."

Seeing that Lin Jiyao had indeed lost a lot of weight, especially on his face, the sudden weight loss made him look more sunken with sunken eye sockets and sharp contours, making him a bit like a mixed race.Lin Shen smiled sheepishly, and changed the subject, "Let's not talk about that for now, but I have some information to give you about that little bastard of the Lin family who caused trouble, but I'm not sure what the situation is, and I don't know if it's useful or not. "

"what's the message?"

"Do you remember, the second or third day after that woman slept with you, we went to a friend's birthday dinner together, and I got drunk that night..."

On the other side, after Lin Xizhou and Cheng Hao left the hospital, they went to a nearby McDonald's for dinner.

Cheng Hao didn't eat much, he was basically full of Coke, and Lin Xizhou was worried about Lin Jiyao's physical condition, so he just lowered his head and ate one mouthful after another, without talking much.

Now Lin Xizhou seemed to be a different person, Cheng Hao couldn't help but feel distressed.He racked his brains for a long time, but in the end he could only use rice balls to start the conversation, because Lin Xizhou had to live in the hospital to take care of Lin Jiyao, so he had to entrust the rice balls to Mrs. Zhang.When Cheng Hao found out about this, he took the initiative to come to the door, asked Mrs. Zhang to claim the rice ball, and tried his best to make the rice ball, which was a little depressed because he hadn't seen the owner for a long time, into a veritable big rice ball.

This strategy was obviously successful. After Lin Xizhou heard about the rice balls, he finally regained some energy. Cheng Hao took advantage of his excitement and called the driver to bring the rice balls while the iron was hot.

Lin Xizhou was very happy, squatting at the entrance of McDonald's and playing with rice balls for a long time, Cheng Hao bought a few more boxes of Chicken Nuggets, opened them and put them on the side.Fantuan wagged its tail and stayed by Lin Xizhou's side, refusing to leave, nor to leave him to eat the chicken nuggets that were set aside.

"Good." Lin Xizhou smiled and rubbed the face of the rice ball. Cheng Hao took good care of it, and the white hair was taken care of so soft and soft. "What's the matter, don't you like chicken nuggets?"

The rice ball coquettishly rubbed its head against his leg, and Cheng Hao tactfully brought over the chicken nuggets and asked Lin Xizhou to feed them.While watching, she secretly wiped tears in her heart, now Lin Xizhou is not even half as good as this dog to him.

However, because Lin Jiyao was still in the hospital, Lin Xizhou didn't stay outside for a long time, and it was time for Fantuan to go back to sleep. In the end, it was even dragged into the back seat by the driver. Dabai Fatty's considerable weight made the old driver gasp for breath .

After sending the rice balls away, Lin Xizhou and Cheng Hao walked back to the hospital.

The two walked side by side on the road, and the hands that were naturally hanging on both sides of the body touched each other several times, but before Cheng Hao tried to hold it, Lin Xizhou took a small step to the side and pulled them apart. distance between.

Cheng Hao's originally optimistic mood suddenly became depressed, and he approached a little nervously, "Xiaomi——"

"Cheng Hao, I thank you for your efforts." Lin Xizhou interrupted him without any ups and downs in his voice, "But now is not the time, I don't want to talk about this."

Hearing the latter words, Cheng Hao almost laughed out loud. He knew Lin Xizhou deeply, so how could he not know the other party's true thoughts?

"Xiaomi, I know you're still angry at me for doing something of my own accord." Cheng Hao said in a low voice, "It's okay, I can wait no matter what, as long as you still want me, I can wait as long as you want."

To be honest, whether it was the absurd mess they had in the office before, or the consequences of his private breakup, these two things have taught Cheng Hao a big lesson—or they have caused him a lot of trouble. A large psychological shadow is more appropriate.He is so old that he is now a little apprehensive before every move, and after speaking, he can't help but think about whether what he said is appropriate or not, whether it will leave a bad impression and other issues.

It's like returning to the youthful age when love first started. It is easy to annoy people, but it also makes him feel a little uncontrollable little joy because of the progress of each relationship.

Lin Xizhou didn't answer, and now he really couldn't muster up the energy to talk to Cheng Hao about this.The two were silent all the way. After a while, the cell phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly. When he picked it up, it was Lin Zheng's call.

Lin Xizhou subconsciously didn't pick it up right away. There was still some distance from the hospital building. If he picked it up immediately, Cheng Hao would have to listen in the whole process, so he turned his head and said to Cheng Hao, "It's late, you go back, I'll go back to the hospital by myself."

Cheng Hao stopped in his tracks. He wanted to ask questions reflexively, but was suppressed by his rationality. Afraid of giving Lin Xizhou the feeling of interfering with him too much, he just smiled and said, "Okay, then remember to rest early .”

Lin Xizhou nodded.

Cheng Hao said again, "Good night."

"Ah."

After taking two or three steps, Lin Xizhou answered the phone, "Lin Zheng?"

Lin Zheng's voice was urgent, "Xizhou, I heard from Gu Yan that you are going to take a year off from school, what's the matter, what happened?"

"It's nothing," Lin Xizhou said, "it's just that my father is sick, and it's inconvenient for me to travel far away from home."

"It's like this..." Lin Zheng seemed to be relieved, "That bastard Gu Yan said in a vague way, I thought something happened to you. If this is the case... it's a repetition? What will we do next year?"

"It doesn't matter, my father can find an acquaintance to clear it up, and he will enter the freshman year next year."

Lin Zheng responded, followed by a consistent silence, but no one hung up the phone. After a long time, Lin Zheng stammered and asked, "You, is there anyone with you now?"

"Accompany?" Lin Xizhou was confused, "No, but I am accompanying my father in the hospital."

"No, I didn't mean that." Lin Zheng seemed to be too nervous, and his breathing was as loud as rice balls, "I, I, I mean, do you have... a lover?"

Lin Xizhou was taken aback. Lin Zheng was afraid that he might misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "I know it's inappropriate to say this now, but I just want to say... If you need help, you can call me at any time."

Lin Zheng held his breath, but there was no sound from the other side. He wondered angrily if he had been too abrupt. There was a villain in his heart hammering the floor with his face full, and he said in an attempt to make amends, " I don't have any intentions... just use a teacher-student relationship, or, or a friend relationship...if you don't mind..."

Lin Xizhou didn't know what to do other than keep silent, and the repeated similar words made him a little upset. Of course, he hoped that the two could remain friends, so he was even more hesitant about how to respond to this impossible relationship.

Besides, his mind is really a mess now, and he can't spare the energy to think about these irrelevant things.

In the end, Lin Xizhou could only hold back a dry sentence, "Okay, I will, thank you."
