Chapter 72:
At nine o'clock in the morning, in the locker room of the operating room of Jihua Hospital.
Jiang Xu changed into a dark green scrub suit and came out of the dressing room, and the door next to him just opened.
"Come in." The peach-eyed man leaned against the door and waved to Jiang Xu.
The lovers in the passionate love period are like the golden candy boiled in the hands of old craftsmen, wishing to stick together every minute.
However, lovers in the passionate love period also have to work, especially the two expectant fathers who have to earn milk powder for their children.
It's not easy for them to be too intimate in front of outsiders, they can only be tender at every turn.
Jiang Xu glanced to make sure there was no one around, then walked into the locker room, folded his elbows and asked, "What are you doing?"
Shen Fangyu stuffed two pieces of chocolate into his hand-washing pocket, "I want to bribe Dr. Jiang and lend me Jiang Xu for half a minute."
Jiang Xu took out the chocolate from his pocket, tore open the packaging bag and fed it into his mouth. The just right fragrance of cocoa butter intertwined with his lover's eyes that were stickier than chocolate, and sparks were easily collided in the narrow dressing room.
It was clear that no one spoke, but the air became sweet and greasy.
Finally, Jiang Xu stuffed the packing bag into his pocket, turned around and unlocked the locker room, "It's half a minute, I'm leaving."
However, after waiting for a while, Dr. Jiang didn't wait for a reply, but a kiss on the back of his neck from his lover who was caught off guard.
Doctor Jiang, who opened the lock, paused, put one hand in his pocket, and turned to meet Shen Fangyu's gaze.
The latter lowered his eyelashes, his eyes fell on his lips, and the corners of his mouth were stained with a smile.
After a while, Jiang Xu asked, "Do you want to kiss?"
So in the end, Dr. Shen asked Dr. Jiang for another half-minute credit, and bought a chocolate-flavored kiss by the way.
The two straightened their clothes, came out of the dressing room one after the other, washed their hands side by side in silence, and finally walked back to their respective operating rooms.
Under the mask, there are hidden traces of the most tacit ambiguity.
After the parting in the morning, the next time we meet will be at the dinner table in the lounge.
The surgeon is busy with his work. Although there is a cafeteria, he can't eat there a few times a year. It's a mix of various takeaways.
The lounge is very lively tonight, because there are two doctors treats, one contracted milk tea, the other contracted fried chicken, the reason is exactly the same - they are all in love.
It stands to reason that it should be very rare for both of them to leave their singles on the same day.
But when everyone in the department heard that Dr. Jiang and Dr. Shen were the guests, they were not surprised at all.
Thinking about it, I even felt that these two people might really be so involved that they even started talking on the same day when they fell in love.
This makes Jiang Xu, who wants to hint to everyone a little bit, that the protagonist of the relationship may be the two of them, very depressed.
He listened to the gossip and discussions of others, and found that there was not even a single person who suspected that he and Shen Fangyu had digested it internally.
As soon as Shen Fangyu came, he was kindly separated by Jiang Xu's favorite student to the farthest place from Jiang Xu.
On the other hand, Yu Sang and Zhang Cheng, whose relationship had finally eased due to the carjacking incident, quarreled over whether milk tea or fried chicken tasted better.
Jiang Xu hugged the health-preserving porridge that Shen Fangyu specially ordered for him alone, and sat among a group of people happily eating fried chicken, listening to Zhang Cheng and Yu Sang arguing and quarreling. Shen Fangyu's girlfriend is better than Shen Fangyu's girlfriend.
He twitched the corners of his mouth with black lines all over his head, and silently glanced at Shen Fangyu, only to find that the other party was also looking at him.
With a tacit understanding, the two stood up with food together, took two completely different paths to the fitness area of the lounge, and finally met in the empty boxing gym, enjoying a quiet meal in the world of two dinner.
Jiang Xu didn't expect that he has been an adult for so long, and falling in love is more like a guerrilla than a high school student who fell in love early.
Shen Fangyu also talked with him about whether to disclose it in the department. Jiang Xu thought about it for a while and decided not to.
Firstly, there are many people in the department, and some patients also like to inquire about gossip. Although homosexuality is normal in medicine, it is not acceptable to everyone after all. Jiang Xu is afraid that it will affect his work.
Secondly, he couldn't face his students and colleagues headed by Yu Sang for the time being.
If he and Shen Fangyu's students knew that they were getting better now, he couldn't even imagine how much psychological trauma it would cause to these people.
For the time being, he only intended to disclose this news to Tang Ke, but unexpectedly he only tentatively said a few words. Doctor Tang rushed to Jiang Xu's house immediately, insisting on taking him to the psychiatric department for registration.
Dr. Shen, who is very experienced in this matter, reported the name and consultation time of the old doctor who woke him up not long ago. After Tang Ke said "thank you", he realized that it was Shen Fangyu who spoke.
"Jiang Xu, you have fallen." Tang Ke said: "If you are kidnapped by him, just blink."
Jiang Xu didn't blink.
"You can blink if you are kidnapped by a child."
Jiang Xu still didn't blink.
Tang Ke broke down emotionally for a while, and ran around Jiang Xu's house for half an hour, finally lit a cigarette on the balcony, and was ordered to be pinched by Shen Fangyu, "Jiang Xu is pregnant with a child."
Tang Ke extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray with trembling hands, and refused to believe it: "Could it be that the person you called me that day was him?"
Jiang Xu: "Yes."
Shen Fangyu was curious: "What phone number?"
Tang Ke didn't want to have a conversation with Shen Fangyu for the time being, so he replied indifferently: "The midnight bell." At least now that he thinks about it, that phone call was indeed the midnight bell to him.
"This is a ghost movie, right?" Shen Fangyu said while drinking tea, "Jiang Xu wanted to watch this some time ago, so I watched it with him."
"Jiang Xu, don't you like watching movies with others?" Tang Ke asked in shock.
In the past, when he asked Jiang Xu to watch a movie, nine out of ten times he couldn't make the appointment, but he asked him to watch the operation video, and every appointment was accurate.
Jiang Xu: "..."
He really didn't like watching movies with others, he just liked watching Shen Fangyu startled.
But obviously Dr. Jiang didn't intend to admit his bad taste in front of Tang Ke.
Shen Fangyu, who risked his life to be with the gentleman, would not confess his pain and joy of coaxing his partner, so he lightly said to Tang Ke, "Because I am not someone else in Jiang Xu's heart."
Tang Ke: The fist is hardened.
In the end, Dr. Tang, who had two big red envelopes stuffed into his left and right pockets, rushed out of the door with a look of grief and indignation: "It's amazing to have a partner. I'll call my mother and ask her to arrange a blind date for me."
Jiang Xu sent him away dumbfounded, and then saw Tang Ke send him a WeChat message, "If he still fights with you, you must tell me, and I will hit him with a stick immediately."
"...Also, a happy marriage for a hundred years."
Jiang Xu always felt that there was a hint of warning in this sentence of a hundred years of good cooperation.
In fact, he and Shen Fangyu didn't just watch movies together, they also watched surgery videos, did replays together, and even...checked in to restaurants of all sizes in City A, walked on the river beach together, and started from the first stop of the city sightseeing bus line. Sit at the last stop, walk through the streets and alleys, and then make up for a missed youthful kiss in the hidden corner of A Medical University.
When the rest time is a little longer, they will also drive to the outskirts of the city to provide material for photographer Jiang who has finally regained his interest in photography.
Before coming to City A, Jiang Xu had heard that there was a huge plum forest in the suburbs of City A.
But at the age of eighteen, Jiang Xu never thought that one day, he would wrap a thick scarf, and through a layer of warm gloves, hold another person's hand and walk side by side in the plum blossom after the snow stopped. Even if he tilted his head, he could see his lover with a smile in his eyes and humming and humming helping him carry the photography equipment.
The clear sunlight reflected the crystal snow, and fell gently on the petals of wintersweet. They sat in the red brick and green tile gazebo, lazily basking in the sun.
Tired all the way, Shen Fangyu put down the camera and tripod, and finally had time to fan himself. Jiang Xu saw it, and stretched his hand to the side of his face to fan him pretendingly.
The milk doll of someone else beside the pavilion looked at them for a long time, and ran over to fan Shen Fangyu, but he fanned, and suddenly threw himself into Jiang Xu's arms.
Jiang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then he heard the three-year-old boy pointing at Jiang Xu's stomach in a childlike voice: "There is a little sister here."
The little boy's grandmother heard the sound, hurried over and pulled the little boy aside, and said to Jiang Xu apologetically, "I'm sorry, the kid is just talking nonsense."
After she finished speaking, she explained to the little boy: "Don't talk nonsense, these are two big brothers, the big brother will not conceive a little sister, please apologize to him."
"I'm not talking nonsense," the little boy yelled, "I just have a little sister."
Jiang Xu's clothes were thick, so he couldn't see anything logically. He and Shen Fangyu exchanged glances. The latter coughed lightly, but couldn't help but smile.
It wasn't until Jiang Xu twisted his arm hard that Shen Fangyu stopped laughing, and stretched out his hand to the child with a bit of teasing: "There is no little sister there, you have to find a little sister and come to me."
The little boy looked at him suspiciously for a while, then looked at Jiang Xu, and finally took a few steps forward, allowing Shen Fangyu to hold him in his arms.
"Really?" he asked Shen Fangyu.
"Really, touch it if you don't believe me."
Shen Fangyu teased him nonchalantly, while the little boy's grandmother smiled and said, "You two have such a good temper, I was afraid that Kangkang would be angry with you. Nowadays, younger boys don't like children very much. You look strangely young, but I didn't expect it to be like coaxing children."
Shen Fangyu hooked the corners of his mouth, and looked at Jiang Xu meaningfully, "I haven't coaxed children much, but there is an ancestor who has to coax him every day."
He smiled after he finished speaking, and squeezed Jiang Xu's hand calmly. The latter gave him a light look, and then signaled him that there were other people here, but Shen Fangyu didn't let go, relying on the cover of the down jacket Holding him, fingers circled in his palm one after another.
"But I'm about to have a baby."
Grandma Kangkang automatically understood "ancestor" as kittens and puppies, but she didn't think much about it. When Shen Fangyu said that she was about to have a baby, she showed a bit of surprise, "Really? How many months?"
"Five or six months."
"Then why don't you take your daughter-in-law out to bask in the sun on this big weekend. Pregnant women need to supplement their calcium well. The children born will be smart and good for the pregnant woman's health." She persuaded: " Don't stay at home all day long, pregnant people are prone to bad mood, and they are easy to be unhappy if they are bored for a long time."
"Hey, I remembered," Shen Fangyu said with a smile, "Thank you for reminding me."
Grandma Kangkang nodded in satisfaction, and her eyes fell on her grandson again. The little boy was lying on Shen Fangyu's chest, stroking Shen Fangyu's down jacket in a serious manner, while still talking about it, as if talking to his never-before-seen girl. Meet the sister to say hello.
His grandma explained helplessly: "Ever since Kangkang's kindergarten classmate next door had a younger sister, Kangkang has been looking for his parents for a younger sister all day long. Take it out and leave it clean for his parents, I didn't expect him to find you again."
As she spoke, she said with emotion: "It's better to have a daughter, the brat is too noisy."
And that brat, Kangkang, lay on Shen Fangyu's body and finished reading his instructions to his younger sister, and finally slipped off Shen Fangyu's body with peace of mind, and ran back to his grandmother.
Grandma Kangkang, who was still disliking her grandson just a second ago, suddenly smiled again. She patted her grandson's head, and asked Shen Fangyu with concern, "Is your child a girl, or a boy?"
Shen Fangyu flickered without changing his expression, "The hospital won't let us know, and we don't know."
"Where do we need the hospital to tell you?" Grandma Kangkang suddenly took out a palm-sized booklet from her bag, "Our family uses this to calculate, as long as we know the date of intercourse, we can calculate it. gone."
After she finished speaking, she didn't care whether Shen Fangyu wanted it or not, so she stuffed the cheat book into Shen Fangyu's pocket with great enthusiasm. Originally, she wanted to introduce to Shen Fangyu how scientific the booklet was, but unexpectedly, Kangkang lost his sister to play with, and he didn't have the slightest trace of the book. The interest of staying here made grandma insist on leaving.
Grandma Kangkang had no choice but to say goodbye to the two, and took Kangkang to go shopping elsewhere.
The pavilion suddenly became quiet, and the sun was shining on him, making him a little sleepy. Jiang Xu stood up and said to Shen Fangyu, "Go to the car and sleep for a while."
They parked their car very close, on the wasteland behind the plum garden.
Since the new plum garden was built in the urban area a few years ago, there have been fewer and fewer tourists in the old plum garden in the suburbs. Even the former paid parking lot has been deserted, and almost no one comes.
Across a courtyard wall, the fragrance of wintersweet blossoms could still be smelled in the snow. Jiang Xu sat in the back row and slept for a while, while Shen Fangyu sat in the back row with him, using his legs as a pillow.
When Jiang Xu woke up, Shen Fangyu was flipping through the **** cheat book given by Grandma Kangkang.
He rubbed his eyes, looked at Shen Fangyu from the bottom up with a little sleepiness, and said, "Are you really counting?"
"What she said is quite mysterious, I'm right."
"Give it to me." Jiang Xu stretched out his hand.
"No," Shen Fangyu raised his hand and raised the brochure high, and then deliberately asked Jiang Xu, "When did it come?"
Jiang Xu ignored him and sat up with a stern face. As a result, he had been lying down for too long and got up too quickly, and his lumbosacral pain suddenly began to hurt. Stop him, "what's the matter?"
Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Shen Fangyu, "My back hurts."
"How long has it been?" Shen Fangyu saw that Jiang Xu's mouth was as usual, so he knew it was not just a day or two, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Jiang Xu shook his head.
Dull pain is no better than stinging pain, and Jiang Xu has always been able to bear it. He knew that as long as he wanted to hide it, Shen Fangyu would have little chance to know.
For Jiang Xu, it was not easy to be frank and vulnerable in front of Shen Fangyu. He never thought that one day he would be able to calmly tell Shen Fangyu that he was in pain.
But that's all.
He pushed away Shen Fangyu's hand that was going to help him, and sat back slowly, with a thin layer of cold sweat on his forehead. Shen Fangyu looked at him with complicated expressions in his eyes.
"Let me press it for you," he suggested.
"No-"
Before he could finish saying "no", Shen Fangyu directly reached out and hugged him on his lap.
In an instant, the rough back seat of the car turned into a soft and warm body, Jiang Xu was stunned, Shen Fangyu's hand had already reached into his coat and pressed his waist.
"You don't have to be so strong in front of me," Shen Fangyu said, "You can try to rely on me, Jiang Xu."
The palm at the waist is very strong, the joints are distinct and clear, every press is gentle, but it can relieve the pressure just right.
Because the roof was not high enough, Jiang Xu had to lower his head slightly, his face was almost pressed against Shen Fangyu's hair.
The posture of being held on the lap tends to give people the illusion of being in control. The weight of the whole body is on the other person, and the body will shake slightly uncontrollably with the other person's movements.
Jiang Xu grabbed Shen Fangyu's shoulders to maintain his balance, and his heart beat inexplicably fast.
A quality massage is often exhausting. After about 20 minutes of pressing for him, Shen Fangyu also broke out a little sweat on his temples. He raised his head and asked Jiang Xu, "Does it still hurt?"
Jiang Xu, who had long forgotten about the pain, was silent for a while, and reflected on his distraction for a second.
And Shen Fangyu automatically interpreted his silence as pain, so he continued to press it.
Hearing the sound of breathing in his ears getting heavier, Jiang Xu's ears felt a little hot for no reason, he paused, and said to Shen Fangyu, "Why don't you take a break."
"It's okay, I'm not tired," Shen Fangyu panted, eyes narrowed, "It's just that my hands are a little sore... You're willing to trust me and let me massage you, I'm very happy."
The heat of Shen Fangyu's words fell on the side of his neck, Jiang Xu suddenly turned his head, he was surprised by his momentary stress reaction, but Shen Fangyu accidentally pressed his tailbone.
Shocked, Jiang Xu sat in Shen Fangyu's arms and shook slightly.
With this shake, both of them were stunned.
Shen Fangyu hesitated for a while, as if wanting to confirm something, he pressed it again in a strange manner. Before Jiang Xu had time to shock Shen Fangyu's inexplicable spirit of seeking knowledge, he only had time to bite his lower lip, suppressing a muffled groan that almost blurted out.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Xu stared at Shen Fangyu, but unexpectedly found that his voice was a little floaty.
"Press...massage." Shen Fangyu swallowed, obviously shocked.
Jiang Xu: "Let go."
Shen Fangyu didn't let go, because Jiang Xu's reaction was so subtle that he wanted to confirm one thing.
And the result he determined was: when his hand circled to the front, Jiang Xu's body froze immediately.
This was the first time Shen Fangyu saw such a side of Jiang Xu in a sober state.
This is also the first time he knows that Jiang Xu will also respond to his actions.
"Would you... Shall I help you?" Shen Fangyu asked tentatively, "Will this make your pain less severe?"
Gritting his teeth, Jiang Xu said to someone who cut first and then played: "Didn't you already start?"
Shen Fangyu was also a little irritable, he calmed down and said, "Then shall I continue?"
There are not many tourists in Meiyuan, and even less people come to this wasteland parking lot. Jiang Xu hesitated for a moment and turned his face away, only a short urging: "Hurry up."
The long down jacket easily covered the inhumane ambiguity, and the dark window glass isolated the too bright sunlight outside the car and the noise inside the car, leaving only wintersweet flowers emitting a more intense fragrance under the sun's rays , making people dizzy and distracted.
After a long while, Jiang Xu's eyes were red, and he opened the car door without looking back while wearing a mask, and hurried out.
Shen Fangyu wrapped the tissue in a plastic bag and threw it into the trash can near the parking lot. When he looked up, Jiang Xu was almost gone.
"Slow down, Jiang Xu," he chased after, "be careful not to fall."
Dr. Jiang, whose face was so hot that he could boil an egg, didn't turn his head back or walk a little slower. His mind was full of disbelief now. How did he, a good-natured young man who didn't even watch movies, sit on Shen Fangyu's lap? , and even confusedly agreed to ask Shen Fangyu to help him in the car.
And he was pregnant.
He was definitely taken away just now.
Jiang Xu refused to admit that it was him just now.
On the way to chase after Jiang Xu, Shen Fangyu happened to run into Grandma Kangkang, who said unexpectedly, "I just saw that friend of yours walking ahead, what's the matter, was there a fight?"
Shen Fangyu pursed his lips, looked at Jiang Xu's back and said sadly, "It might be a little more serious than that."
And the wintersweet flowers on the treetops just smiled and said nothing, silently watching the two young people chasing after each other, blooming their fragrance under the sun.
