Chapter 82:
After taking Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu to country M to attend the meeting, Director Cui fulfilled his promise at the Mid-Autumn Festival party and gave them three days off.
At that time, Shen Fangyu asked Director Cui for this leave, originally to find an opportunity to communicate with Dr. Kenn, but now because he and Kenn have completely broken up, probably no matter whether they are patients or doctors in country Z, Kenn will not give them anything Important news.
Shen Fangyu simply rented a car, planning to take Jiang Xu to the suburbs of country M for a drive.
After Jiang Xu heard that the red-haired driver had lent him the money to buy the plane ticket for Shen Fangyu's return to China, he specifically mentioned that he would like to thank the red-haired driver.
The red-haired driver was very happy when they met again in adversity, and offered to be the driver to take the two of them to play in country M for a whole day.
While in the car, the red-haired driver brought up the old incident of being robbed.
After the catastrophe, some people will suffer from stress disorder and never want to talk about it again, while others will have a stronger desire to express themselves, wishing to tell everyone what they have experienced.
Obviously, the driver is the latter.
Speaking of deciding to chase the car, the red-haired uncle said with emotion: "This is the most exciting thing I have ever done in my life. I feel like a superhero, excited and scared at the same time."
After Jiang Xu listened, he asked Shen Fangyu, "What about you, were you afraid at the time?"
"He's not afraid," the red-haired uncle continued, "He's the most courageous Z countryman I've ever met. He's very calm and has a very strong psychological quality."
Jiang Xu listened, with a subtle smile in his eyes, and glanced lightly at Shen Fangyu.
Even if the latter had a thick skin like a city wall, Shen Fangyu couldn't bear the red-haired uncle's boasting. When Jiang Xu saw him, Shen Fangyu's face turned red.
"I'm not as loud as he is," Shen Fangyu said, "It's just that I was too anxious at the time, thinking about the information all the time, and didn't care about whether I was afraid or not. But later... I was quite afraid."
When encountering such a thing, it is inevitable that there will be a fluke mentality, and it is easy to lose your mind at once when you are passionate.
Shen Fangyu pursed his lips, and said frankly: "After I got the information, my heart kept shaking. When I thought about what happened at that time, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xu understood.
I was thinking for him when I was chasing the car, and I was still thinking about him when I was afraid after chasing the car.
Jiang Xu couldn't help but switch to Chinese and said, "Can't you think about yourself?"
It was clearly a chat between three people, but the red-haired uncle was cut off from the conversation because of this sentence in Chinese.
His expression suddenly became a little subtle. Although he couldn't understand what Jiang Xu said, he could see Shen Fangyu's obviously touched expression.
So in the end, the red-haired uncle sent them to the farewell place, and while Jiang Xu got out of the car first, he looked at Shen Fangyu with an expression of "I understand" and said meaningfully: "You seem to like him very much, come on, I've tried my best to help you."
Shen Fangyu hesitated for a moment, but did not tell him that they were already lovers.
However, when he walked to the hotel, he realized that he had underestimated the understanding ability of the red-haired uncle.
This hotel was opened by the uncle's friend, and because he recommended it wholeheartedly, Shen Fangyu thought he was an acquaintance, so he agreed to stay. Unexpectedly, the red-haired uncle directly set up a special themed room for them.
Shen Fangyu who pushed open the hotel door was stunned for a moment, then quickly closed the door, stopping Jiang Xu who was walking behind him.
Jiang Xu looked at his hesitant expression, and asked inexplicably, "Is there a ghost in the house?"
"No."
Jiang Xu directly and forcefully pulled him away, Shen Fangyu didn't dare to use force with the pregnant person, so he had to let him push the door open, and saw props, handcuffs, leather whips, and electric chairs all over the room.
Jiang Xu: "..."
Feelings are not about ghosts in the house, but about ghosts in Shen Fangyu's heart.
"I'm really innocent," Shen Fangyu said without a word, "I really didn't choose this room, and I didn't expect it to be like this. It was all recommended by the driver."
"oh…"
"Don't be 'oh', trust me, I really didn't pick this one." Shen Fangyu suggested in a desperate tone, "Come on, let's go to the boss and change one."
However, when the friend of the red-haired uncle led them through one by one, Jiang Xu discovered that their room was still the most conservative.
Sure enough, as the old saying goes, the more acquaintances you have, the easier it is to be cheated.
It was already dark, and it was the suburbs, so it was not convenient to go out to find other hotels, especially when they thought about what happened to Shen Fangyu before, both of them felt a little bit terrified.
After all, country M is really not a place suitable for going out at night.
Staying for one night...isn't that a big problem?
Jiang Xu thought.
It's not uncommon for them to be intimate, they are legitimate lovers, and it's probably harmless to stay in a special love hotel.
Dr. Jiang's advantage is that he takes in less messy film and television materials, out of sight and out of mind, so he ignores those facilities that have a high sense of presence.
And Dr. Shen, who has too much theoretical knowledge, obviously couldn't be so calm. He leaned on the sofa and frantically swiped his phone, and read three documents in a row, but he couldn't divert his attention and wash his mind away. Those weird scenes and fantasies.
The bathroom glass is transparent, the sound of water is clear, but Shen Fangyu's neck is stiff.
Jiang Xu took a shower and got dressed, came out, wiped his hair and glanced at him, "Go and wash."
Hearing the sound, Shen Fangyu nodded with a red neck, and quickly took out the clothes from the suitcase. He lowered his head the whole time without daring to look at Jiang Xu, and went straight into the bathroom.
"..."
They are all about to be fathers, yet they are so easily impatient.
Jiang Xu sighed and turned his gaze back to the news on the tablet.
After a long while, the sound of water in the bathroom sounded. He glanced subconsciously from the corner of his eye, and finally understood what Shen Fangyu was panicking just now.
The bathroom glass is transparent on one side, that is to say, the inside can be seen from the outside, but the outside cannot be seen from the inside.
…Depend on.
This time it was Jiang Xu who blushed.
He turned his face away, his heartbeat was a little faster, and the temperature on his face was also a little high.
There was the water he bought earlier on the table, and he reached for it, intending to cool it down a little, but accidentally knocked down the sale items placed on it.
Jiang Xu bent down to pick it up, only to find that it seemed to be an unopened medicine bottle.
Probably the doctor's occupational disease, he took a look at the boxes of medicines in his hand with a bit of curiosity, the bottles were all in English, Jiang Xu had just read halfway through, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
However, before he had time to put his things down, Shen Fangyu suddenly pushed open the bathroom door after taking a shower.
Jiang Xu held a bottle of rush in his left hand and a box of sildenafil in his right. He and Shen Fangyu looked at each other for a while, and they spoke almost at the same time.
Shen Fangyu: "What are you looking at?"
Jiang Xu: "Why are you wearing my underwear?"
Shen Fangyu: "..."
In the end, Dr. Shen, who was more dead, was the first to lose.
Seeing the man's hot face visible to the naked eye, Jiang Xu pretended to be calm and stuffed the few boxes of things into the drawer, quietly lifted the quilt, and planned to lie down on the bed.
As a result, the bed swayed, and the two people in the room fell silent.
The warm water bed rippled gently with Jiang Xu's movements, and the latter was startled suddenly, subconsciously clenched the quilt tightly.
The man's fingers are slender, his joints are clear, and the way he grabs the quilt is really easy to make people have some bad associations.
"cough…"
Shen Fangyu cleared his throat, and asked him with wandering eyes, "Can you sleep?"
Jiang Xu glared at him, took a deep breath slowly, and persuaded himself not to be angry.
Shen Fangyu hesitated for a moment, went around to the other side of the bed, and leaned over lightly.
Apparently, though, the bed is too sensitive to slow down.
Lying on this bed, even yawning, the bed can keep shaking, turning over occasionally will cause a wave of even bigger ups and downs.
Obviously they just lay there and did nothing, but they added a bit of weird ambiguity for no reason.
Jiang Xu closed his eyes for a while in confusion, and his thoughts spread randomly. After a while, he suddenly remembered something and reminded Shen Fangyu, "You seem to have forgotten to change my underwear just now."
Both of them are about the same height and shape, and the size of their clothes is also the same, because the waistband of the trousers has good elasticity, Jiang Xu only bought a size up after pregnancy.
The boy's underwear is nothing more than black, gray and blue, and they are stuffed in the suitcase at the same time. It is understandable that Shen Fangyu took the wrong one... But it is unreasonable for him not to change it after reminding him.
However, Shen Fangyu looked like he was breaking the jar, and said to him, "I've worn it all... Do you want more?"
Not only was it worn, it might have been slightly soiled as well.
He originally planned to change his pants back, but Jiang Xu and the bed made him forget about it.
And with his current physical state, getting out of bed to change... seems to be no different from playing hooligans.
Shen Fangyu, who was not drunk, still had to face.
"I also wore the one you were wearing." Jiang Xu still wanted to struggle to get his underwear back.
I don't know why, but the matter of changing clothes with Shen Fangyu made Jiang Xu's heart feel like a feather scratched him, and he felt a little hot in his ears.
"Just treat it as a gift for me." Shen Fangyu rubbed his neck, "I'll give you a surprise tomorrow, okay?"
"surprise?"
"Yeah." Shen Fangyu adjusted his posture a little bit, turned his arms around, and wanted to hug Jiang Xu from behind to sleep.
Unexpectedly, this very unreasonable water bed swayed again, like a cradle, shaking very much.
"...I didn't do it on purpose." Shen Fangyu said.
Jiang Xu covered his face under the quilt: "Sleeping."
With such a blindfold, he happened to completely expose the roots of his ears to Shen Fangyu's line of sight.
The sides of Jiang Xu's ears are very white, and a little emotion can stain them red. The earlobes with rich capillaries are the most red, and they look soft and easy to touch.
Shen Fangyu stared at it for a long time, his eyes were a little wandering, and he couldn't hold back his hand on his earlobe and rubbed it.
"what are you doing?"
Jiang Xu kicked him first, and then bumped him back in dissatisfaction, but he didn't expect that the undulating water bed brought him to accidentally bump into Shen Fangyu's leg.
The temperature is a little high.
The air was quiet for a moment.
And the tips of the ears turned redder.
The water bed is definitely the most retarded invention in the world.
Shen Fangyu: "I really don't blame me this time."
"Shut up." The voice came muffled from under the quilt.
Shen Fangyu also wanted to shut up, but for some reason, he accidentally said, "Speaking of which, the surprise is also related to water."
Jiang Xu: "..."
I don't know if it was because of Shen Fangyu's words before going to bed, or because the bed was shaking non-stop at night, or the moment when I accidentally bumped into it was too real and clear.
Jiang Xu had a rare dream for the first time.
In the dream, it was raining heavily, and the turbulent water wet the transparent umbrella. Shen Fangyu coaxed him to help take the umbrella off, and told him that it was a surprise.
Waking up in the morning, Jiang Xu looked at his pants silently for a moment, and glanced at Shen Fangyu who was sleeping.
Dreams are exciting.
The mood is very complicated.
Cognition is also very collapsed.
And Plato's feelings seem to have deteriorated.
But in fact, Shen Fangyu's surprise was a ship.
At that time they were walking along the seashore, and as they walked, Jiang Xu suddenly saw a yacht at dusk.
The boat is not big, but it is beautifully decorated. The white hull is matched with dark blue glass, and seven colors of paint are splashed with ink, drawing a huge rainbow on the hull.
The open-air deck is shrouded in the orange sunset, and the elongated afterimage on the deep blue sea is quiet and gentle.
The scenery was so beautiful, Jiang Xu couldn't help taking out his phone to take a picture, but Shen Fangyu suddenly leaned into his ear and said, "You can go up and take a picture."
Jiang Xu put down his phone and looked at him in surprise. The corner of the latter raised his mouth, "It was originally rented to you," he said, "Surprise."
The yacht breaks through the white waves on the water, and the sun sets little by little, leaving only a light night.
Jiang Xu stood on the deck with his head slightly raised, the starlight was faint, and the wind blew through his hair, making him feel comfortable and happy.
"Why did you think of renting a boat?" He asked Shen Fangyu.
"I remember the song we sang together," Shen Fangyu put his hand on the guardrail, and looked at Jiang Xu with warm and affectionate eyes. With the second half of the sentence, I just added the first half of the sentence today, and I haven’t been on a boat with you yet.”
The refreshing sea breeze made Jiang Xu feel very comfortable. After listening to it, he rarely joked with a bit of humor: "You have a lot of private money?"
Chartering a yacht isn't cheap, and it's such a nice new boat.
"I don't dare to hide my money." Shen Fangyu explained with a smile: "Huo Chengchun and his family run a ferry company in country M. I asked him for help and got a friendly price."
"..."
When Shen Fangyu's wronged brother met him, it was really bad luck for eight lifetimes.
"Good brother." Jiang Xu commented.
"That's right," Shen Fangyu joked, "We've been good brothers for over ten years, so he can't follow me when I'm in a relationship?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xu glanced at him meaningfully, "Who was belittling himself before, you don't want me to promise him now?"
"No," Shen Fangyu said cheekily, "Except for me, you can't meet anyone who is prettier and better than me.
This person is embarrassed when others praise him, but he doesn't blush when he praises himself.
Jiang Xu let out a "tss", "Then what if you change your mind?"
"That's even more impossible, and I can't meet anyone who is better looking or better than you."
Jiang Xu turned his face away, and said leisurely: "That's not sure."
"If I meet him, it has nothing to do with me. Even if there is a better-looking and better person, there will naturally be a better-looking and better person to like him. I will only fall in love with you in this life, and I will only like you. In this world Only the two of us are evenly matched, a match made in heaven, and Hippocrates, an old man, would have to say that he is a good match."
Jiang Xu made him lose his way with a basketful of love words, and after a while he said: "Hippocrates has no time to take care of you."
"Also," he said, "You've watched too much "Legend of the White Snake"."
Even the lines in the TV series are used to bluff him.
"I've seen it quite a few times," Shen Fangyu said solemnly, "But I haven't seen you as many times."
Jiang Xu couldn't help rolling his eyes at first, but after he finished, he couldn't help laughing very lowly, pressing the corners of his upturned mouth.
The sound of the waves is far away and boundless, falling into Jiang Xu's ears, quiet and gentle.
He suddenly said to Shen Fangyu, "Sing it again."
"Um?"
"That song," Jiang Xu looked at his lover on the yacht, "I want to hear you sing."
When a person is doing what he is best at, the charm will be fully displayed.
Jiang Xu looked at Shen Fangyu who spoke softly, as if he had returned to Jihua's stage.
Because of his nervousness that day, he didn't even think to look at the audience, but because of this, he firmly remembered Shen Fangyu smiling and singing.
The tails of his eyes were raised slightly, and he was born with a smile, those eyes were very bright, like a full moon.
The broken hair between the foreheads half covered the forehead, flamboyant and willful.
The two sat side by side on the deck, holding warm water cups and blowing the sea breeze. The sky was not yet completely dark, and the lighthouse in the distance was already lit up. moving.
Shen Fangyu's voice was slightly low, but every sentence sang in Jiang Xu's heart.
After a long time, the voice in my ear gradually faded away, and when Shen Fangyu finished singing, a piece of fireworks suddenly lit up on the shore not far from the sea.
Jiang Xu accidentally shifted his eyes from Shen Fangyu's face to the sky, the fire trees and silver flowers, sparks shining brightly, under the sound of crackling, the colorful light spots dyed the clouds in the dark night colorfully, like a grand scene.
"Do you like it?" Shen Fangyu covered his ears and asked him with squinted eyes.
"This is also Huo Cheng..."
"It has nothing to do with him," Shen Fangyu said, "I prepared it."
"Both City A and City B have banned whipping for many years, and I thought you probably haven't seen it for a long time, so I knew it could be banned here, so I prepared a little bit."
Shen Fangyu rushed to the helper who set off the fireworks on the shore, blew a smart whistle, and waved again, but he didn't know if the other party saw it.
Jiang Xu always thought that the boat was sailing randomly, until this moment, he realized that Shen Fangyu had arranged the established route in advance.
"Where is this ship going?" he asked.
Under the sky full of fireworks, the colorful lights on the yacht reflected Shen Fangyu's face. He stood up with his arms pressed against the guardrail, and his eyes fell on the endless sea.
"If you agree to my marriage proposal, it will continue to drive to H Town."
"I made an appointment with Mr. Mayor for the wedding ceremony at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. The photographer Miss Reisa and the driver Mr. Vincent will be waiting for us at the port."
"Afterwards we will swear oaths under the witness of the priest, exchange rings, kiss... and then sign our names on the marriage certificate with a black pen."
"If you refuse, then we will enjoy the fireworks here, and when the sun rises, I guarantee that we will safely return to the place we started today."
He turned his head to look at Jiang Xu who was sitting on the deck, took out a small red velvet box from his pocket, and smiled.
"Although marriage abroad has no effect in China, but... I want to have a ceremony with you."
He opened the box with one hand, and with a "click", two identical plain rings appeared in front of Jiang Xu. Shen Fangyu handed the box to him, and then asked him, "So Mr. Jiang, do you want to marry me?" Am I married?"
The world is used to the dazzling sun, the gentle moon, the combination of hardness and softness, the harmony of yin and yang, the golden boy and the jade girl, the gifted man and the beautiful woman...
But apart from those common and beautiful love stories, in the corners of the world, there are still two moons who cherish each other, and two suns that illuminate each other.
Jiang Xu stretched out his hand, and Shen Fangyu held his hand, pulling him to stand up from the deck.
Holding the thermos, he stood beside Shen Fangyu, letting the sea breeze blow his collar, and the cloth with the clean fragrance of laundry detergent gently brushed his cheeks.
No getting down on one knee, no dazzling big diamond ring, no "will you marry me".
His Mr. Shen just stood beside him calmly, holding two identical rings, and asked him if he wanted to marry him.
Shen Fangyu didn't know Jiang Xu 100%.
But Shen Fangyu only needs to understand himself to understand 80% of Jiang Xu.
For example, what kind of relationship does he like, when and how he likes to talk about marriage.
Jiang Xu glanced at him, and suddenly smiled, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and there was a smile in his eyes.
"Have you ever thought that if the operation fails, you will become a widower who has been married for more than three months?" He said to Shen Fangyu.
"If you are gone, I will either be a widower for the rest of my life, or be single for the rest of my life." Shen Fangyu also had a smile in his eyes, "I would choose the former."
When they can talk about death in a joking way, they can also talk about love in the way of talking about death.
Maybe it's time to start a marriage.
Jiang Xu took the ring box from him, opened and closed it over and over again.
Finally, leaning against the white railing, on the deep blue sea, he turned and looked at Shen Fangyu.
"Then let the boat go."
