Four years single, three years widowed

As the sun was setting, Li Can got off work on time and drove to the hospital to visit Duan Wenzheng.

During this period of time, he didn't run to Duan Wenzheng's place every day like those seven days. It's not that he didn't want to, but in order to prevent Duan Wenzheng from getting bored with his frequent presence, he had to slow down. What's more, he signed up for a cooking job. class.

That's right, Li Can signed up for a cooking class.

From the moment he recognized his feelings for Duan Wenzheng, he made up his mind to actively change himself, to become more outgoing, more independent, and more capable.

There is no coercion or grievance in this kind of change. In fact, this is exactly what he wants, but has been too lazy to try.

Li Can hopes to become a better version of himself, and will no longer choose to give up because of loneliness and loneliness, but will always stand firmly behind Duan Wenzheng and become his most powerful and warm harbor.

Of course, whether Duan Wenzheng is willing to be with him again is still unknown...

Parking the car in the parking lot, Li Can entered the hospital, and before he reached the door of the ward, he heard a family of three talking and laughing inside.

"What's so happy?" Li Can walked into the ward with fruit in one hand.

Turning her head to look at him, Duan's mother smiled happily: "Chancan is here."

Different from Duan's father and Duan's mother's welcoming attitude, Duan Wenzheng suppressed the smile on his face, looking a little indifferent.

Standing up and taking a few steps forward, Mother Duan glanced sharply at the thing in Li Can's hand, and immediately said, "Oh! I can't buy it."

Li Can didn't understand, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Why can't I buy fruit?

"The doctor just came to inform that Wen Zheng will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow." Father Duan explained.

Duan Wenzheng will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow? !

Curving the corners of his lips, Li Can was genuinely happy about the news, and said to Duan's mother, "It's okay, I'll take it to the nurse's station and give it to them."

"Okay, that's a good suggestion." Duan's mother agreed with her face, took the fruit bag and lightened his weight, "But you just came, sit down for a while."

Sitting obediently on the chair, Li Can asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"I've eaten." Duan's mother put the fruit on the bedside table, "I didn't know you were coming, if I knew, I would ask your dad to make more and bring you a copy."

"Cancan, are you hungry?" Father Duan asked, "Shall I buy you something to eat?"

Li Can shook his head: "No need, I will leave after a while."

"Alright, I've been tired all day, go back and rest early." Mother Duan's eyes were full of love for Li Can.

"Tomorrow..." Li Can remembered Duan Wenzheng's discharge from the hospital again, "Tomorrow happens to be Saturday."

"Well, it's Saturday." Mother Duan nodded.

Li Can took the initiative to ask Ying: "Shall I come to pick up Wen Zheng and leave the hospital?"

"Brother-in-law will come." Duan Wenzheng finally spoke.

Covering up the disappointment in his eyes, Li Can replied in a low voice: "Oh."

Seeing this, Duan's father and Duan's mother looked at each other and communicated silently.

"Your brother-in-law's house is not as close as driving to Cancan's house." Mother Duan said abruptly, "Isn't it, old Duan?"

Duan's father understood, and continued to add more firewood: "Yes, and I heard from Jiaxiang that the road near his house is under construction, and the road was blocked for a long time two days ago."

"He can come by another road." Duan Wenzheng proposed a solution.

"Wouldn't it be farther to take a detour?" Father Duan said.

Duan Wenzheng didn't care much: "Anyway, he has nothing to do."

"How do you know he has nothing to do?" Mother Duan asked back.

"He said it himself on the phone."

"Your brother-in-law is polite to you, do you take it seriously?"

His mouth opened, Duan Wenzheng didn't know what to say, he felt that his parents were really unreasonable.

"Why don't you trouble Cancan tomorrow?" Mother Duan said democratically.

Seeing the painstaking efforts of Duan's mother and Duan's father, Li Can's heart warmed, and he smiled slightly: "It's not troublesome at all."

They are so blatant, Duan Wenzheng will quit.

With his hands folded across his chest, Duan Wenzheng looked at Li Can: "Are you free to do tomorrow?"

"No." Li Can said calmly.

"I know, you're just being polite." Duan Wenzheng smirked, "I can't take it seriously."

With a calm expression, Li Can said, "I'm really free."

"It's good when you're free." It's amazing, if it was Li Can, Duan's mother believed it again.

There was a dull pain in the temple, and Duan Wenzheng was so angry that he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Hello?Excuse me, does anyone remember that he was a wounded patient?

The answer is: no one remembers.

Apart from the parties involved, Duan's father, Duan's mother and Li Can spoke to you and I, and the matter was finalized.

After discussing the time, Li Can sat down for a while, said goodbye to them, and left the hospital.

Night has come, the street lights on both sides of the road are on, and the white Audi drives into the garage of the community in the dark.

Li Can stopped the engine, opened the door and got out of the car, then locked the car, walked to the elevator with his briefcase, and pressed the button.

The red numbers on the display kept jumping down, and finally stopped, and the elevator doors slowly opened to both sides.

Stepping forward, Li Can just stood still in the elevator when he heard someone calling his name.

"Wait! Li Can!"

Looking back, I saw Deng Kang running towards him in a hurry, no, to be precise, he was running towards the elevator.

Holding down the elevator door with one hand to prevent it from closing automatically, Li Can gave Deng Kang plenty of time.

Gradually slowing down his pace, Deng Kang entered the elevator, his breathing sounded a little rough, and he obviously hadn't fully recovered yet.

"Thank you brother." Deng Kang carelessly put his arm on Li Can's shoulder.

"You're welcome." Li Can pressed the tenth floor, and Deng Kang's floor by the way.

"Just got off work?" Deng Kang asked him.

Resisting the urge to brush away the hand on his shoulder, Li Can replied, "No, I'm going to see Duan Wenzheng."

Deng Kang nodded, and asked again: "When will Brother Duan be discharged from the hospital?"

"tomorrow."

"That's a good thing." Deng Kang said, "In a place like a hospital, if you stay for a long time without being sick, you will get sick after waiting."

Li Can agrees with this sentence.

"But... where will he live after he leaves the hospital?" Deng Kang looked curious.

Li Can finally took his hand and said, "Of course he lives at his parents' house."

Curling his lips, Deng Kang was a little disappointed: "I thought he would live with you, so it would be convenient for me to visit him again."

"I go to work every day, so I can't take care of him well," Li Can said.

Duan Wenzheng's left leg was still in plaster, so it was inconvenient to do anything, so it was the best choice for Duan's father and Duan mother to take care of him.

"It makes sense." Deng Kang thought about it, and then rolled his eyes, and asked, "Then when Brother Duan recovers, will you come back and live?"

Pursing the corners of his lips, Li Can remained silent.

There is nothing left in the horoscope, he can't guarantee it.

Seeing him falling into silence, Deng Kang knew he had said something wrong, lowered his head, and patted the troublemaker's mouth angrily.

Just at this time, the elevator reached the eighth floor and opened the door.

"Let's go." Deng Kang hurriedly stepped forward.

"Ah."

Unexpectedly, just as he got out of the elevator, Deng Kang suddenly thought of something, and he turned around and shouted: "Hey, Li Can."

"Ok?"

"I have something to ask for your help."

"what's up?"

Turning back, Deng Kang stretched out his hand and pulled Li Can out of the elevator: "Come out and say it."

Standing in the corridor, apart from wanting to move Deng Kang's hand away, Li Can didn't care about his rude behavior of forcibly pulling himself out of the elevator.

"What's the matter?" Li Can asked again.

"Come with me." Deng Kang is still keeping a secret.

Walking to the door of the house, Deng Kang entered the door lock code, twisted open the door, and pulled it outward.

With such a simple movement, he didn't make much noise, but a small animal just happened to notice it.

The black and white schnauzer rushed towards the door quickly, then stopped in front of Deng Kang, raised its big blinking eyes, and let out a "woof".

"Bei Bei, where's the mistress of the house?" Deng Kang bent down and asked jokingly.

Li Can was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that this was the dog Xiang Xiaofei and Deng Kang raised.

"I'm here." Xiang Xiaofei was dressed in home clothes, and she didn't know which room she came out of, "Hi, Li Can."

As soon as she finished speaking, the schnauzer named "Bei Beer" turned around and ran to play with her.

While asking Li Can to change his shoes, Deng Kang asked, "Didn't you eat?"

"not yet."

"I haven't eaten yet, I'm starving to death." Deng Kang turned to Xiaofei and said, "Xiaofei, give us two bowls of noodles."

"Okay." Xiang Xiaofei readily agreed and walked into the kitchen.

One after the other came to the living room, Deng Kang pointed to the sofa: "Sit."

Li Can randomly found a seat and sat down. This was not the first time he had come to Deng Kang's house, so he was not cautious, and his sitting posture was relaxed and natural.

"It's like this, Li Can, didn't Xiaofei and I say we were going to play in X City last time?" Deng Kang was finally willing to clarify the matter, "So, I would like to ask you to help us raise beer for a few days."

Beer = dog.

Li Can frowned suddenly: "You want me to help you raise a dog?"

"Yes." Deng Kang smiled.

"But I never had a dog."

Not to mention raising them, Li Can has never had much contact with dogs.

"Don't worry about that, our Beer is very good!" Deng Kang patted his chest and promised, "It doesn't bark too much and doesn't shed much hair. You only need to prepare three meals a day for it, and take it out for a walk once in a while."

Hearing this, Li Can's furrowed brows showed no sign of relaxation.

No matter how you say it is a small life, it is not as simple as what Deng Kang said.

"Li Can, it's only four days." Deng Kang held up four fingers and pleaded, "You only need to take care of me for four days."

It's only four days, it's really not a long time, but Li Can is still a little hesitant.

He really doesn't feel confident taking care of the dogs himself.

"Hey! If you really feel embarrassed, forget it." Deng Kang couldn't force him.

Pushing his glasses, Li Can whispered: "No, I'm afraid that if it doesn't like me..."

When Deng Kang heard it, he felt that there was still something to be done, and his eyes lit up: "How come? Beer is very enthusiastic. You just need to play with it for a while, and it will fall in love with you."

In order to prove to Li Can, Deng Kang shouted loudly: "Bei Bee! Come here!"

Within a few seconds, Bei Bei rushed over, grabbed Deng Kang's trouser legs, and tried to climb onto his knee.

Rubbing its little head, Deng Kang told him to go to Li Can: "Go, meet new friends."

As if he could understand Deng Kang's words, Bei Bei immediately put his paws back on the ground and walked towards Li Can.

Looking closely, Li Can was instantly attracted by its soft and smooth hair and cute and agile appearance.

Beibei first circled around his feet, smelling left and right, and then pulled and pulled like he did to Deng Kang just now, putting his front legs on Li Can's knee.

Unable to bear the eagerness in his heart anymore, Li Can stretched out a hand, imitating Deng Kang's example, and rubbed Bei Beer's little head.
