Dongcheng District No.1 People's Hospital
Lin Xi went to finish the registration, and went to the emergency room floor with Chu Muqing.
It was getting dark outside, but the waiting area outside the emergency room was brightly lit, and there were also a lot of patients waiting. She originally wanted Chu Muqing and the little guy to wait in the car, but Chu Muqing insisted on coming up with her .
She had no choice but to go to the pharmacy outside to buy masks for them, and now it was the night time after get off work, and she already had a premonition that there would be many patients outside the emergency room, and the air must be full of viruses and bacteria.
In fact, it was just a common cold, and she didn't need to come to a third-class hospital to register. Chu Muqing was really worried that she was overdoing it.
But in fact, she was really uncomfortable. Even after taking the medicine in the afternoon, her throat hurt badly, and it seemed to be swollen, as if something was blocked in her throat. It was hot, and my mind began to become dizzy.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, it was finally her turn.
The door of the emergency room was open. Lin Xi knocked on the door twice and walked in. The two desks were joined together, and the female doctor was sitting on the right side of the computer.
Lin Xi handed her the diagnosis number, and the female doctor manipulated the mouse for a while, then tilted her head and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xi explained her symptoms, and the female doctor picked up the electronic thermometer and took her temperature.
Lin Xi cooperatively stretched out her wrist. The female doctor glanced at the thermometer screen and said, "I don't have a fever."
Lin Xi was a little thankful: "Fortunately, it didn't burn."
The female doctor reminded: "The temperature has changed a lot recently, and it is a period of high incidence of influenza. Influenza is very common. Don't worry too much, just prescribe a medicine."
Lin Xi replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you doctor."
"Remember to keep warm, drink plenty of water, and rest more." The female doctor thought of something, looked at her face again, and reminded: "If you are really worried, you can go for a routine blood test."
Lin Xi quickly said: "No need, you can prescribe me medicine, please."
It was already very late, and if the routine blood test was included, it would have been delayed even longer. Besides, the doctor said it was just a common flu, and it would obviously get better soon after taking the medicine.
The female doctor responded, put her hand on the mouse again, prescribed her medicine, gave her some instructions, and finally reminded her that the payment window is on the next floor, and the medicine collection window is on the first floor.
Lin Xi thanked her and left the emergency room. Seeing her coming out, Chu Muqing brought the little guy over.
"What did the doctor say?" Chu Muqing asked.
Lin Xi noticed her worried gaze, and immediately took the initiative to say: "No problem, it's just a cold. I said don't worry too much, and I don't even have a fever."
Chu Muqing looked at her unnatural expression, and asked softly, "Don't you have a fever?"
"Yeah, 36.3°C." Lin Xi smiled: "You'll be fine after taking the medicine, should you feel relieved now?"
Chu Muqing hesitated.
Lin Xi had already held the little guy's hand, and said with a smile, "Let's go downstairs and pay the money."
Chu Muqing accompanied her to pay for the medicine, and then went to the medicine window to get the medicine. Fortunately, the medicine that Chu Muqing bought for her did not overlap.
When a few people returned to the car, it was already dark outside.
The car drove out all the way, and the night was very quiet, and the street lights outside the car window were backed up one by one.
The little guy had already fallen asleep, Lin Xi was already uncomfortable, but now his mind was groggy, and his upper and lower eyelids were fighting.
The screen of the mobile phone lit up at this time, and it was Mama Lin who sent a message.
Mother Lin asked her: [Can you ask for leave tomorrow? ]
The content of Ms. Lin's message was very brief, completely different from her usual state of sending messages to her.
Lin Xi was slightly taken aback: [Huh?I've just started working, it's not good to ask for leave directly, what's wrong? ]
——[Your grandfather is injured and is in the General Hospital of the Military Region. ]
Lin Xi was startled. Grandpa was injured?
Lin Xi hurriedly asked: [Grandpa, is he serious?How did you get hurt? ]
Before Mama Lin could send a message, she immediately replied: [I will ask for leave from the company tomorrow and go to the hospital to see my grandfather. ]
——[Fortunately, it was only a minor injury. The doctor said it was not serious. It was just that he couldn’t get out of bed for a short time. You went to see him at noon. Your grandfather was afraid that you would worry, so we originally asked us to hide it from you.The hospital is not far from your company, just go there at noon to accompany him, don't ask for leave. ]
Lin Xi thought for a while and replied: [Well, good. ]
Fortunately, Mother Lin said that Grandpa's injury was not serious, and her hanging heart finally fell down.
,
In fact, in the past, every time Lin Xi got a bad cold, he would feel that it was not a big deal. After all, a minor ailment like a cold would get better sooner or later, it was only a matter of time.
But this time she felt extremely uncomfortable, her mind was dizzy, and her body began to feel cold as if her thoughts were out of control.
The living room was very quiet, the bedroom door was closed, and the little guy had already fallen asleep, except for the occasional rustling noise from the kitchen, Lin Xi could hardly hear any sound.
Lin Xi leaned on the sofa, wrapped in the quilt that Chu Muqing had just brought her, only her head was exposed. The air conditioner in the living room was turned on, but she was still shivering from the cold.
When Chu Muqing came out of the kitchen, she happened to see her quiet appearance, her delicate face was full of innocence and fragility.
Seeing her coming out, Lin Xi asked her wrapped in a quilt, "Is the meal ready?"
Chu Muqing responded: "You can eat it soon."
Lin Xi nodded, her voice was hoarse: "Then I'll call Zai Zai to get up and eat."
As she spoke, she was about to turn over the quilt and come down, but Chu Muqing stopped her: "Let her sleep for a while, I'll just call her."
Lin Xi shrank her body under the quilt again: "Mmm..."
Chu Muqing looked at her from a distance, and asked softly, "Is it cold?"
Lin Xi nodded, and said in a muffled voice, "Well, it's very cold. The doctor said that my immunity is very weak, but many people seem to have caught the flu, and it seems that I'm not alone."
Chu Muqing turned around and walked to the cabinet, took out the medicine box, and found the thermometer from inside.
She unpacked the thermometer and walked to the sofa where Lin Xi was. When Lin Xi was in a daze, Chu Muqing had already put the probe of the thermometer on her forehead.
She stood in front of her, her hand movements were very light, Lin Xi lowered his eyes slightly, and saw her slender waist, and smelled a cool fragrance from her body at the tip of his nose, it was very cold, but it smelled good.
"That..." Lin Xi paused, and said, "The temperature has been measured in the hospital."
Through the quilt, Chu Muqing pressed her shoulders with her fingertips, and reminded softly: "Don't hide."
Lin Xi really didn't dare to move.
But in fact, she didn't hide, she just subconsciously wanted to look up at Chu Muqing's face.
Until the electronic thermometer emits a "beep", the temperature measurement is completed.
Chu Muqing saw the temperature display on it clearly, and Lin Xi noticed her frown slightly.
"How about it..." Lin Xi smiled and said, "Do you not have a fever?"
Chu Muqing responded, "En."
Chu Muqing put the thermometer back into the medicine box and returned to the kitchen.
Lin Xi was waiting for dinner, and the vegetables at home were almost full, but fortunately there were still eggs, Chu Muqing said to make egg soup, and the delicious food aroma came out from the kitchen, Lin Xi couldn't help but let out a growl in his stomach.
By the time the late dinner was served, it was already 09:30 in the evening.
The little guy came out of the bedroom yawning, looked at the egg soup on the dining table, and suddenly regained his energy, his beautiful almond eyes became bright: "Wow, did mom make it?"
Sitting at the dining table, Lin Xi told her with a smile, "Well, come and sit."
The little guy immediately sat down obediently. Lin Xi looked at Chu Muqing who came after her. Because of cooking, she had her sleeves rolled up, and her exposed wrists were extremely white and slender.
It looks ridiculous.
Lin Xi's gaze followed her wrist all the way, and then looked at her equally beautiful fingers.
It wasn't until Chu Muqing sat down at the dining table that she noticed her gaze, and couldn't help but tilt her head and ask her, "What are you looking at?"
Looking at each other, Lin Xi was a little embarrassed.
She looked at Chu Muqing and smiled, and said frankly, "Look at you."
Chu Muqing paused slightly with her fingertips: "Huh?"
Lin Xi coughed lightly: "You are beautiful."
Chu Muqing's eyes moved down, and her gaze fell on her dry lips, and she said softly, "You've already said this once."
"That's different," Lin Xi smiled: "Now it's saying that your hands are beautiful, it's like controlling the gospel with your hands."
Chu Muqing turned sideways calmly, picked up a slightly larger white porcelain spoon, filled a small bowl of egg soup, and put it on the table in front of Lin Xi.
"Hmm...thank you." Lin Xi realized that Chu Muqing served it for her, and said half-jokingly, "Chu Muqing, I just have a cold and I'm not disabled. Just come by yourself."
Chu Muqing didn't respond, she filled another bowl of egg soup, stretched her arms and put it in front of the little guy.
The little guy said in a childish voice, "Thank you, Mom."
The egg soup was filled with finely chopped tomatoes and small pieces of ham. Under the light, the surface of the egg soup was glowing with a layer of crystal oil.
Lin Xi suddenly got an appetite, and was about to reach out, when Chu Muqing put the small porcelain spoon into her bowl.
Lin Xi was flattered and looked at her: "Ah...thank you."
Chu Muqing turned her head calmly, and put another small porcelain spoon in the little guy's bowl.
The whole family was very satisfied with the dinner. Chu Muqing's egg soup was very good, but the taste was a bit bland. Her throat was uncomfortable, so it was just right.
Lin Xi took one mouthful after another, and soon got to the bottom of it.
At this time, she heard Chu Muqing ask her: "Is it okay?"
Lin Xi raised her head subconsciously, her eyes were at the same level as Chu Muqing's, and she looked down. Chu Muqing's cuffs were still rolled up, her five fingers were slightly bent, and her knuckles were lightly clasped on the clean wooden table, as if waiting for her to answer this question. Evaluation of the dinner.
Lin Xi blinked, and suddenly sighed: "Miss Chu, you are already perfect."
Chu Muqing slightly hooked her lips: "Huh?"
Looking away, the man smiled at the corners of his eyes and brows, and explained to her: "Chu Muqing, look, you have even become a chef at such a difficult task as cooking, so in this world, there is still Is there a more perfect woman than Miss Chu?"
Chu Muqing was amused by her exaggerated tone, she looked at her again and asked, "Is that so?"
"Of course." Lin Xi put his arm on the edge of the table, and began to point out Chu Muqing's strengths with his fingers: "Look, Chu Muqing, you work hard, cook delicious food, have a good personality and have a good personality." In principle, besides, every part of the body looks good, in this world, I am afraid that there will never be a more perfect woman than you."
Lin Xi spoke out her many advantages in one breath, but Chu Muqing's focus fell on her sentence——
"Where is the whole body looking good?" Chu Muqing looked sideways at her.
Lin Xi tilted his head subconsciously: "Huh?"
The four eyes met, and Chu Muqing's scrutiny eyes fell on her face.
The man's eyes were stained with a slight smile, and his tone became light: "Huh?"
Lin Xi came to her senses belatedly, it was fine not to delve into that sentence, but once she delved into it, it seemed that she was deliberately "playing hooligans" just now.
Lin Xi's face instantly turned red, and the heat directly reached the back of his ears: "No...it's just..."
Chu Muqing asked her, "What is it?"
Lin Xi immediately lowered his head and did not look at her. At the same time, he explained in a muffled voice: "It means that your hands are pretty, and your face is also pretty. There is no other meaning..."
Chu Muqing's tone was gentle and slow: "Well, don't be afraid, I didn't think much about it."
Lin Xi woke up before seven o'clock. She was sweating a lot, and the sticky feeling of the nightgown against her skin was uncomfortable. After realizing it, she realized that Chu Muqing had added another layer of quilt to her body. The body is much lighter, and it is no longer the exhaustion of yesterday's general weakness.
Grandpa Rong was injured. Even though Ms. Lin said he was not serious, it seriously affected her sleep state last night, with nightmares one after another.
Not long after she sat up, the phone vibrated. Looking at the caller ID, it was her cousin Lin Su.
Lin Xi lifted the quilt, pulled off the coat from the hanger, and walked towards the entrance with the slippers on.
When he opened the door, he answered the phone at the same time, lowered his voice and said, "Please wait a moment."
Lin Su quickly said: "It's okay, don't worry."
Lin Xi walked downstairs, and then asked her with a smile: "Call me early in the morning? What's the matter?"
Lin Su was silent for a while, and then asked her in a low voice: "Will your wife pick up your clothes when she's drunk?"
Lin Xi: ...?
"No?" Lin Xi asked her amusedly: "You called me early in the morning just to ask this?"
Lin Su faltered: "...Isn't this serious enough? I almost lost my virginity last night."
Lin Xi was silent for a long time before completely digesting the shocking news.
Lin Xi thought for a while and asked her, "Then what do you think?"
"What can you think?" Lin Su coughed, gritted her teeth and said, "I've been innocent for most of my life! I can't let her have sex after drinking... so what?"
Lin Xi asked amusedly: "So what? If you were firm, you wouldn't seem to be bothered about calling me now."
"I think..." She was silent for a while, and then said: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with her, but I don't think I should be too casual with her... What about you?"
Lin Xi was taken aback: "Huh?"
"You and your nominal wife, haven't you ever misfired since you got married?"
Lin Xi: "...No."
"Okay..." Lin Su clicked his tongue: "You are right, I can't sell myself for her [-]% of the shares, and you can't sell yourself for that little money, you and I need reason. "
Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "Actually, what I got was [-]% of her shares."
Lin Su was taken aback, and her tone was shocked: "[-]%? Is your wife so generous?"
Lin Xi responded: "Well, I'm actually very guilty, but she seems to insist on giving it to me."
"..." Lin Su suddenly said, "Sister, you might as well sell yourself."
Lin Xi: "...?"
"Look, it's a full [-]% of the shares. It's not a loss if you sell it. If I were you, I would consider taking the initiative to climb into bed. Really, as a sister, her life is nothing more than that at the peak."
Lin Xi: ...
"... Sigh, I'm really fed up with Shen Wuqiu, a sexy woman dangles in front of your eyes every day, who can stand it?"
There was indescribable sadness in Lin Su's tone, as if he regarded Lin Xi, who was also regarded as a "son-in-law", as his only confidant.
Standing in the wind, Lin Xi listened to her complaining for 15 minutes with a good temper, and offered some comfort, then hung up the phone and went back upstairs.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Chu Muqing sitting on the sofa.
The light in the living room was not turned on, and the half-bright light came in from the window. Lin Xi looked down on her expression, and could only see the silhouette of a slender figure.
On the sofa, the quilt she slept on last night has been neatly folded by her.
Lin Xi walked over and was about to say, "I'm going downstairs..."
Chu Muqing's eyes fell on her face, and she asked softly, "Don't you know it's cold?"
Lin Xi smiled: "I only answered the phone for a few minutes, and I was still wearing a coat."
She answered the phone in a hurry just now, and she didn't have time to change her clothes. It was really cold outside because of the strong wind.
Chu Muqing looked at her, her voice was very low, and she asked calmly: "Who is calling?"
Lin Xi told the truth: "My cousin, ask me about relationship issues."
Chu Muqing seemed to be a little interested, and looked at her with a half-smile: "Do you still understand relationship issues?"
Lin Xi was startled, then looked at her and smiled: "Why don't you understand? Xiao Lin understands everything, and I have been in a relationship once. Although I failed, I can still tell her the lessons of failure."
Chu Muqing looked at her without saying a word.
Lin Xi smiled again and said, "If you have relationship problems in the future, you are welcome to consult me."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, then lowered her eyebrows and said to her, "Go wash up."
Lin Xi responded, took off his coat, got up and walked to the bathroom.
When Lin Xi finished washing and came out, Chu Muqing went back to the bedroom, and the living room became quiet again.
After changing her clothes, she sat in the living room for a while, but Chu Muqing did not come out, and the whole room became silent.
Twenty or ten minutes later, Chu Muqing and the little guy came out together. The little guy changed into a jacket with a duck pattern today, and the hat behind the collar is also in the shape of a cute duck.
As soon as the little guy saw her, he happily showed her his new clothes.
Chu Muqing's expression was indifferent, and she said to her: "I'll go out and buy breakfast."
Lin Xi thought for a while: "I'll go with you."
Chu Muqing said, "No need."
She said, turning and walking towards the entrance.
Lin Xi had followed her out after turning on the TV for the little guy when she opened the door.
The two went downstairs together without speaking first.
Lin Xi didn't know what was wrong with her, but from Chu Muqing's expression, she didn't seem very happy.
There was nothing to say all the way, until after leaving the community, when passing a potholed path, Chu Muqing was wearing high heels, her figure was unstable, and she almost fell down.
Lin Xi quickly wrapped her arms around her waist: "Be careful!"
It was only after Chu Muqing stabilized her body that Lin Xi released her.
Chu Muqing tilted her head, glanced at her, and said softly, "Thank you."
Lin Xi shook his head: "It's okay."
The one closest to the community was not open earlier, so I had to walk half a street further to the other one.
The early morning sun was setting, and it was hard to keep your eyes open against the light.
Chu Muqing glanced inadvertently, and the light shone on the man's face. Lin Xi's fair face was illuminated by the sun, her ears were distinct, and her cheeks were dyed a beautiful red.
Chu Muqing paused, and asked her, "Have you ever had a girlfriend before?"
Lin Xi was taken aback.
She admitted generously: "Well, I have."
Chu Muqing stopped, and Lin Xi didn't know why, so she stopped too.
Chu Muqing tilted her head, and her eyes fell on her face: "Is the other party an Omega too?"
Lin Xi smiled and shook her head: "No, she is an ordinary person."
Chu Muqing asked her softly: "Is that Beta?"
Lin Xi thought for a while, then shrugged: "It can also be understood in this way."
The setting of this world is indeed like this, Beta is an ordinary person, ordinary, mediocre, with an extremely low fertility rate.
Chu Muqing looked at her for a few seconds.
After that, he looked away and continued to ask, "Why did you break up?"
Lin Xi frowned, then smiled awkwardly: "Ah... do you want to say this too?"
Chu Muqing didn't respond, her eyes fell on her face.
After a few seconds, Chu Muqing suddenly said, "Well, I'm curious."
"..."
She never expected that Miss Chu Muqing, who was always calm and cold, would be curious about her past relationship history.
"Okay." Lin Xi smiled, and said slowly: "I met her in college, that is, how should I put it, my life was not good before high school, because of the family relationship, I feel that I have always been Is it alone, and the loneliness seems to be... all the time, everywhere?”
Chu Muqing looked at her and asked, "What happened next?"
"Later, didn't I go to college, and I didn't know how to get along with people at first. I always felt that my roommates would hang out together occasionally, sit together in class, etc., but I just... …I don’t know how to integrate into them, I have always been alone, although I have already gotten used to it, but I still long to change to a new environment and be able to be with everyone.”
Chu Muqing responded: "Yes, I understand."
Lin Xi smiled: "Thank you."
"Then, that girl appeared. She cared about whether I was hungry, would take the initiative to buy me breakfast, and would call me to join me in class. She handles interpersonal relationships very well. Both boys and girls like her, and she is also the most beautiful. Yes, but beauty is not the point, it's just...very kind."
Chu Muqing suddenly asked, "Is it important to be beautiful or to be kind?"
"Of course it's kindness!" Lin Xi answered as a matter of course, looked at her with a smile, and continued, "I'm especially grateful for her kindness to me. It can be said that gratitude is greater than liking, so whenever I earn money later, I will spend it on her." , whether before or after we are together, I will give her a lot of things."
"But later... How should I put it, everyone has his own ambitions. She felt that she had no future with me, so she found a rich man and married, and there was no future."
She thought for a while, then smiled and went to see Chu Muqing: "It seems that there was, and then I met you and married you." She said again: "So in this way, you saved me, and you saved me quickly. relieved my sadness."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, then asked her softly: "Do you hate her?"
"No way." Lin Xi said with a smile: "I don't hate her, I don't hate her, I can understand her choice better, but if she wants to break up with me, she can directly bring it up instead of cheating on me. .”
Lin Xi thought of something, and said to Chu Muqing: "You know, Chu Muqing, I... Before she appeared, not many people were nice to me. In fact, when such a person appeared, he suddenly treated me well , it’s hard not to be tempted.”
Chu Muqing didn't respond.
Lin Xi thought she couldn't understand, and explained: "It's like, what I did last night, I was sick, you are willing to take care of me, take me to the hospital, cook for me, care about my illness, that will move me It's a mess."
Chu Muqing understood this person's thoughts, and felt a little distressed inexplicably: "If someone treats you well, will you like him?"
Lin Xi thought for a while: "I don't know."
Chu Muqing suddenly asked her: "Why don't you know? Isn't that how you like your ex-girlfriend?"
Lin Xi: ...
Chu Muqing continued: "I like it so much that we broke up, and we are still talking about understanding each other, and still thinking about each other."
"..." Lin Xi didn't agree with this at all, and quickly explained: "It's not like that, it's because I don't care anymore. That is, when I completely stay out of the matter and don't care, I will understand her choice. In fact, objectively speaking, It's not my heart, but I really don't care, I don't like it anymore, I don't think it's necessary to care anymore, I just reconcile with myself."
After thinking for a moment, Chu Muqing asked her, "What kind of person do you like? Besides treating you well, do you have any other requirements?"
Lin Xi thought for a while: "Actually, you don't have to be too nice to me, that is, you just need to like me enough, because it seems that Xiao Lin's requirements for finding a girlfriend are really not very high."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, and suddenly reminded softly: "Don't like others casually, you understand?"
Lin Xi asked her: "Ah? Why?"
Chu Muqing wrote lightly: "It's easy to be deceived."
Lin Xi nodded: "Oh..."
Lin Xi went to finish the registration, and went to the emergency room floor with Chu Muqing.
It was getting dark outside, but the waiting area outside the emergency room was brightly lit, and there were also a lot of patients waiting. She originally wanted Chu Muqing and the little guy to wait in the car, but Chu Muqing insisted on coming up with her .
She had no choice but to go to the pharmacy outside to buy masks for them, and now it was the night time after get off work, and she already had a premonition that there would be many patients outside the emergency room, and the air must be full of viruses and bacteria.
In fact, it was just a common cold, and she didn't need to come to a third-class hospital to register. Chu Muqing was really worried that she was overdoing it.
But in fact, she was really uncomfortable. Even after taking the medicine in the afternoon, her throat hurt badly, and it seemed to be swollen, as if something was blocked in her throat. It was hot, and my mind began to become dizzy.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, it was finally her turn.
The door of the emergency room was open. Lin Xi knocked on the door twice and walked in. The two desks were joined together, and the female doctor was sitting on the right side of the computer.
Lin Xi handed her the diagnosis number, and the female doctor manipulated the mouse for a while, then tilted her head and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xi explained her symptoms, and the female doctor picked up the electronic thermometer and took her temperature.
Lin Xi cooperatively stretched out her wrist. The female doctor glanced at the thermometer screen and said, "I don't have a fever."
Lin Xi was a little thankful: "Fortunately, it didn't burn."
The female doctor reminded: "The temperature has changed a lot recently, and it is a period of high incidence of influenza. Influenza is very common. Don't worry too much, just prescribe a medicine."
Lin Xi replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you doctor."
"Remember to keep warm, drink plenty of water, and rest more." The female doctor thought of something, looked at her face again, and reminded: "If you are really worried, you can go for a routine blood test."

"What did the doctor say?" Chu Muqing asked.

The car drove out all the way, and the night was very quiet, and the street lights outside the car window were backed up one by one.
The little guy had already fallen asleep, Lin Xi was already uncomfortable, but now his mind was groggy, and his upper and lower eyelids were fighting.
The screen of the mobile phone lit up at this time, and it was Mama Lin who sent a message.
Mother Lin asked her: [Can you ask for leave tomorrow? ]

Lin Xi was startled. Grandpa was injured?

In fact, in the past, every time Lin Xi got a bad cold, he would feel that it was not a big deal. After all, a minor ailment like a cold would get better sooner or later, it was only a matter of time.

Lin Xi leaned on the sofa, wrapped in the quilt that Chu Muqing had just brought her, only her head was exposed. The air conditioner in the living room was turned on, but she was still shivering from the cold.
When Chu Muqing came out of the kitchen, she happened to see her quiet appearance, her delicate face was full of innocence and fragility.
Seeing her coming out, Lin Xi asked her wrapped in a quilt, "Is the meal ready?"
Chu Muqing responded: "You can eat it soon."
Lin Xi nodded, her voice was hoarse: "Then I'll call Zai Zai to get up and eat."
As she spoke, she was about to turn over the quilt and come down, but Chu Muqing stopped her: "Let her sleep for a while, I'll just call her."
Lin Xi shrank her body under the quilt again: "Mmm..."
Chu Muqing looked at her from a distance, and asked softly, "Is it cold?"
Lin Xi nodded, and said in a muffled voice, "Well, it's very cold. The doctor said that my immunity is very weak, but many people seem to have caught the flu, and it seems that I'm not alone."
Chu Muqing turned around and walked to the cabinet, took out the medicine box, and found the thermometer from inside.
She unpacked the thermometer and walked to the sofa where Lin Xi was. When Lin Xi was in a daze, Chu Muqing had already put the probe of the thermometer on her forehead.
She stood in front of her, her hand movements were very light, Lin Xi lowered his eyes slightly, and saw her slender waist, and smelled a cool fragrance from her body at the tip of his nose, it was very cold, but it smelled good.
"That..." Lin Xi paused, and said, "The temperature has been measured in the hospital."
Through the quilt, Chu Muqing pressed her shoulders with her fingertips, and reminded softly: "Don't hide."
Lin Xi really didn't dare to move.
But in fact, she didn't hide, she just subconsciously wanted to look up at Chu Muqing's face.
Until the electronic thermometer emits a "beep", the temperature measurement is completed.
Chu Muqing saw the temperature display on it clearly, and Lin Xi noticed her frown slightly.
"How about it..." Lin Xi smiled and said, "Do you not have a fever?"
Chu Muqing responded, "En."
Chu Muqing put the thermometer back into the medicine box and returned to the kitchen.
Lin Xi was waiting for dinner, and the vegetables at home were almost full, but fortunately there were still eggs, Chu Muqing said to make egg soup, and the delicious food aroma came out from the kitchen, Lin Xi couldn't help but let out a growl in his stomach.
By the time the late dinner was served, it was already 09:30 in the evening.
The little guy came out of the bedroom yawning, looked at the egg soup on the dining table, and suddenly regained his energy, his beautiful almond eyes became bright: "Wow, did mom make it?"
Sitting at the dining table, Lin Xi told her with a smile, "Well, come and sit."
The little guy immediately sat down obediently. Lin Xi looked at Chu Muqing who came after her. Because of cooking, she had her sleeves rolled up, and her exposed wrists were extremely white and slender.
It looks ridiculous.
Lin Xi's gaze followed her wrist all the way, and then looked at her equally beautiful fingers.
It wasn't until Chu Muqing sat down at the dining table that she noticed her gaze, and couldn't help but tilt her head and ask her, "What are you looking at?"
Looking at each other, Lin Xi was a little embarrassed.
She looked at Chu Muqing and smiled, and said frankly, "Look at you."
Chu Muqing paused slightly with her fingertips: "Huh?"
Lin Xi coughed lightly: "You are beautiful."
Chu Muqing's eyes moved down, and her gaze fell on her dry lips, and she said softly, "You've already said this once."
"That's different," Lin Xi smiled: "Now it's saying that your hands are beautiful, it's like controlling the gospel with your hands."
Chu Muqing turned sideways calmly, picked up a slightly larger white porcelain spoon, filled a small bowl of egg soup, and put it on the table in front of Lin Xi.
"Hmm...thank you." Lin Xi realized that Chu Muqing served it for her, and said half-jokingly, "Chu Muqing, I just have a cold and I'm not disabled. Just come by yourself."
Chu Muqing didn't respond, she filled another bowl of egg soup, stretched her arms and put it in front of the little guy.
The little guy said in a childish voice, "Thank you, Mom."
The egg soup was filled with finely chopped tomatoes and small pieces of ham. Under the light, the surface of the egg soup was glowing with a layer of crystal oil.
Lin Xi suddenly got an appetite, and was about to reach out, when Chu Muqing put the small porcelain spoon into her bowl.
Lin Xi was flattered and looked at her: "Ah...thank you."
Chu Muqing turned her head calmly, and put another small porcelain spoon in the little guy's bowl.
The whole family was very satisfied with the dinner. Chu Muqing's egg soup was very good, but the taste was a bit bland. Her throat was uncomfortable, so it was just right.
Lin Xi took one mouthful after another, and soon got to the bottom of it.
At this time, she heard Chu Muqing ask her: "Is it okay?"
Lin Xi raised her head subconsciously, her eyes were at the same level as Chu Muqing's, and she looked down. Chu Muqing's cuffs were still rolled up, her five fingers were slightly bent, and her knuckles were lightly clasped on the clean wooden table, as if waiting for her to answer this question. Evaluation of the dinner.
Lin Xi blinked, and suddenly sighed: "Miss Chu, you are already perfect."
Chu Muqing slightly hooked her lips: "Huh?"
Looking away, the man smiled at the corners of his eyes and brows, and explained to her: "Chu Muqing, look, you have even become a chef at such a difficult task as cooking, so in this world, there is still Is there a more perfect woman than Miss Chu?"
Chu Muqing was amused by her exaggerated tone, she looked at her again and asked, "Is that so?"
"Of course." Lin Xi put his arm on the edge of the table, and began to point out Chu Muqing's strengths with his fingers: "Look, Chu Muqing, you work hard, cook delicious food, have a good personality and have a good personality." In principle, besides, every part of the body looks good, in this world, I am afraid that there will never be a more perfect woman than you."
Lin Xi spoke out her many advantages in one breath, but Chu Muqing's focus fell on her sentence——
"Where is the whole body looking good?" Chu Muqing looked sideways at her.
Lin Xi tilted his head subconsciously: "Huh?"
The four eyes met, and Chu Muqing's scrutiny eyes fell on her face.
The man's eyes were stained with a slight smile, and his tone became light: "Huh?"
Lin Xi came to her senses belatedly, it was fine not to delve into that sentence, but once she delved into it, it seemed that she was deliberately "playing hooligans" just now.
Lin Xi's face instantly turned red, and the heat directly reached the back of his ears: "No...it's just..."
Chu Muqing asked her, "What is it?"
Lin Xi immediately lowered his head and did not look at her. At the same time, he explained in a muffled voice: "It means that your hands are pretty, and your face is also pretty. There is no other meaning..."
Chu Muqing's tone was gentle and slow: "Well, don't be afraid, I didn't think much about it."
Lin Xi woke up before seven o'clock. She was sweating a lot, and the sticky feeling of the nightgown against her skin was uncomfortable. After realizing it, she realized that Chu Muqing had added another layer of quilt to her body. The body is much lighter, and it is no longer the exhaustion of yesterday's general weakness.
Grandpa Rong was injured. Even though Ms. Lin said he was not serious, it seriously affected her sleep state last night, with nightmares one after another.
Not long after she sat up, the phone vibrated. Looking at the caller ID, it was her cousin Lin Su.
Lin Xi lifted the quilt, pulled off the coat from the hanger, and walked towards the entrance with the slippers on.
When he opened the door, he answered the phone at the same time, lowered his voice and said, "Please wait a moment."
Lin Su quickly said: "It's okay, don't worry."
Lin Xi walked downstairs, and then asked her with a smile: "Call me early in the morning? What's the matter?"
Lin Su was silent for a while, and then asked her in a low voice: "Will your wife pick up your clothes when she's drunk?"
Lin Xi: ...?
"No?" Lin Xi asked her amusedly: "You called me early in the morning just to ask this?"
Lin Su faltered: "...Isn't this serious enough? I almost lost my virginity last night."
Lin Xi was silent for a long time before completely digesting the shocking news.
Lin Xi thought for a while and asked her, "Then what do you think?"
"What can you think?" Lin Su coughed, gritted her teeth and said, "I've been innocent for most of my life! I can't let her have sex after drinking... so what?"
Lin Xi asked amusedly: "So what? If you were firm, you wouldn't seem to be bothered about calling me now."
"I think..." She was silent for a while, and then said: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with her, but I don't think I should be too casual with her... What about you?"
Lin Xi was taken aback: "Huh?"
"You and your nominal wife, haven't you ever misfired since you got married?"
Lin Xi: "...No."
"Okay..." Lin Su clicked his tongue: "You are right, I can't sell myself for her [-]% of the shares, and you can't sell yourself for that little money, you and I need reason. "
Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "Actually, what I got was [-]% of her shares."
Lin Su was taken aback, and her tone was shocked: "[-]%? Is your wife so generous?"
Lin Xi responded: "Well, I'm actually very guilty, but she seems to insist on giving it to me."
"..." Lin Su suddenly said, "Sister, you might as well sell yourself."
Lin Xi: "...?"
"Look, it's a full [-]% of the shares. It's not a loss if you sell it. If I were you, I would consider taking the initiative to climb into bed. Really, as a sister, her life is nothing more than that at the peak."
Lin Xi: ...
"... Sigh, I'm really fed up with Shen Wuqiu, a sexy woman dangles in front of your eyes every day, who can stand it?"
There was indescribable sadness in Lin Su's tone, as if he regarded Lin Xi, who was also regarded as a "son-in-law", as his only confidant.
Standing in the wind, Lin Xi listened to her complaining for 15 minutes with a good temper, and offered some comfort, then hung up the phone and went back upstairs.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Chu Muqing sitting on the sofa.
The light in the living room was not turned on, and the half-bright light came in from the window. Lin Xi looked down on her expression, and could only see the silhouette of a slender figure.
On the sofa, the quilt she slept on last night has been neatly folded by her.
Lin Xi walked over and was about to say, "I'm going downstairs..."
Chu Muqing's eyes fell on her face, and she asked softly, "Don't you know it's cold?"
Lin Xi smiled: "I only answered the phone for a few minutes, and I was still wearing a coat."
She answered the phone in a hurry just now, and she didn't have time to change her clothes. It was really cold outside because of the strong wind.
Chu Muqing looked at her, her voice was very low, and she asked calmly: "Who is calling?"
Lin Xi told the truth: "My cousin, ask me about relationship issues."
Chu Muqing seemed to be a little interested, and looked at her with a half-smile: "Do you still understand relationship issues?"
Lin Xi was startled, then looked at her and smiled: "Why don't you understand? Xiao Lin understands everything, and I have been in a relationship once. Although I failed, I can still tell her the lessons of failure."
Chu Muqing looked at her without saying a word.
Lin Xi smiled again and said, "If you have relationship problems in the future, you are welcome to consult me."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, then lowered her eyebrows and said to her, "Go wash up."
Lin Xi responded, took off his coat, got up and walked to the bathroom.
When Lin Xi finished washing and came out, Chu Muqing went back to the bedroom, and the living room became quiet again.
After changing her clothes, she sat in the living room for a while, but Chu Muqing did not come out, and the whole room became silent.
Twenty or ten minutes later, Chu Muqing and the little guy came out together. The little guy changed into a jacket with a duck pattern today, and the hat behind the collar is also in the shape of a cute duck.
As soon as the little guy saw her, he happily showed her his new clothes.
Chu Muqing's expression was indifferent, and she said to her: "I'll go out and buy breakfast."
Lin Xi thought for a while: "I'll go with you."
Chu Muqing said, "No need."
She said, turning and walking towards the entrance.
Lin Xi had followed her out after turning on the TV for the little guy when she opened the door.
The two went downstairs together without speaking first.
Lin Xi didn't know what was wrong with her, but from Chu Muqing's expression, she didn't seem very happy.
There was nothing to say all the way, until after leaving the community, when passing a potholed path, Chu Muqing was wearing high heels, her figure was unstable, and she almost fell down.
Lin Xi quickly wrapped her arms around her waist: "Be careful!"
It was only after Chu Muqing stabilized her body that Lin Xi released her.
Chu Muqing tilted her head, glanced at her, and said softly, "Thank you."
Lin Xi shook his head: "It's okay."
The one closest to the community was not open earlier, so I had to walk half a street further to the other one.
The early morning sun was setting, and it was hard to keep your eyes open against the light.
Chu Muqing glanced inadvertently, and the light shone on the man's face. Lin Xi's fair face was illuminated by the sun, her ears were distinct, and her cheeks were dyed a beautiful red.
Chu Muqing paused, and asked her, "Have you ever had a girlfriend before?"
Lin Xi was taken aback.
She admitted generously: "Well, I have."
Chu Muqing stopped, and Lin Xi didn't know why, so she stopped too.
Chu Muqing tilted her head, and her eyes fell on her face: "Is the other party an Omega too?"
Lin Xi smiled and shook her head: "No, she is an ordinary person."
Chu Muqing asked her softly: "Is that Beta?"
Lin Xi thought for a while, then shrugged: "It can also be understood in this way."
The setting of this world is indeed like this, Beta is an ordinary person, ordinary, mediocre, with an extremely low fertility rate.
Chu Muqing looked at her for a few seconds.
After that, he looked away and continued to ask, "Why did you break up?"
Lin Xi frowned, then smiled awkwardly: "Ah... do you want to say this too?"
Chu Muqing didn't respond, her eyes fell on her face.
After a few seconds, Chu Muqing suddenly said, "Well, I'm curious."
"..."
She never expected that Miss Chu Muqing, who was always calm and cold, would be curious about her past relationship history.
"Okay." Lin Xi smiled, and said slowly: "I met her in college, that is, how should I put it, my life was not good before high school, because of the family relationship, I feel that I have always been Is it alone, and the loneliness seems to be... all the time, everywhere?”
Chu Muqing looked at her and asked, "What happened next?"
"Later, didn't I go to college, and I didn't know how to get along with people at first. I always felt that my roommates would hang out together occasionally, sit together in class, etc., but I just... …I don’t know how to integrate into them, I have always been alone, although I have already gotten used to it, but I still long to change to a new environment and be able to be with everyone.”
Chu Muqing responded: "Yes, I understand."
Lin Xi smiled: "Thank you."
"Then, that girl appeared. She cared about whether I was hungry, would take the initiative to buy me breakfast, and would call me to join me in class. She handles interpersonal relationships very well. Both boys and girls like her, and she is also the most beautiful. Yes, but beauty is not the point, it's just...very kind."
Chu Muqing suddenly asked, "Is it important to be beautiful or to be kind?"
"Of course it's kindness!" Lin Xi answered as a matter of course, looked at her with a smile, and continued, "I'm especially grateful for her kindness to me. It can be said that gratitude is greater than liking, so whenever I earn money later, I will spend it on her." , whether before or after we are together, I will give her a lot of things."
"But later... How should I put it, everyone has his own ambitions. She felt that she had no future with me, so she found a rich man and married, and there was no future."
She thought for a while, then smiled and went to see Chu Muqing: "It seems that there was, and then I met you and married you." She said again: "So in this way, you saved me, and you saved me quickly. relieved my sadness."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, then asked her softly: "Do you hate her?"
"No way." Lin Xi said with a smile: "I don't hate her, I don't hate her, I can understand her choice better, but if she wants to break up with me, she can directly bring it up instead of cheating on me. .”
Lin Xi thought of something, and said to Chu Muqing: "You know, Chu Muqing, I... Before she appeared, not many people were nice to me. In fact, when such a person appeared, he suddenly treated me well , it’s hard not to be tempted.”
Chu Muqing didn't respond.
Lin Xi thought she couldn't understand, and explained: "It's like, what I did last night, I was sick, you are willing to take care of me, take me to the hospital, cook for me, care about my illness, that will move me It's a mess."
Chu Muqing understood this person's thoughts, and felt a little distressed inexplicably: "If someone treats you well, will you like him?"
Lin Xi thought for a while: "I don't know."
Chu Muqing suddenly asked her: "Why don't you know? Isn't that how you like your ex-girlfriend?"
Lin Xi: ...
Chu Muqing continued: "I like it so much that we broke up, and we are still talking about understanding each other, and still thinking about each other."
"..." Lin Xi didn't agree with this at all, and quickly explained: "It's not like that, it's because I don't care anymore. That is, when I completely stay out of the matter and don't care, I will understand her choice. In fact, objectively speaking, It's not my heart, but I really don't care, I don't like it anymore, I don't think it's necessary to care anymore, I just reconcile with myself."
After thinking for a moment, Chu Muqing asked her, "What kind of person do you like? Besides treating you well, do you have any other requirements?"
Lin Xi thought for a while: "Actually, you don't have to be too nice to me, that is, you just need to like me enough, because it seems that Xiao Lin's requirements for finding a girlfriend are really not very high."
Chu Muqing looked at her for a while, and suddenly reminded softly: "Don't like others casually, you understand?"
Lin Xi asked her: "Ah? Why?"
Chu Muqing wrote lightly: "It's easy to be deceived."
Lin Xi nodded: "Oh..."
