On the way back, Ji Shuyu didn't say a word.
Gu Xiuyuan didn't explain either.
When they returned home, Ji Shuyu showed him the birthday gift she had chosen for grandma.
"Which one do you think is better?"
"It's up to you to decide." He smiled, but his eyes showed an undisguised lack of interest.
Ji Shuyu's smile was a little weak, "Okay, then I've decided."
"I'm going to take a shower."
Since when did the words he said to him most often become "I'm going to take a shower", "I have a meeting soon", and "You should go to bed early".
…
As usual, Ji Shuyu went with her aunt to take care of the babies, bathing them and changing their clothes.
She was a little naughty early in the morning tonight and wasted some time. When she returned to the bedroom, Gu Xiuyuan was not asleep. She went to the study and found that he was asleep.
He was leaning back in his chair, looking uncomfortable, and on the computer screen was a card game.
This is his overtime, his job.
Ji Shuyu leaned on the table, looked at him sleeping, and smiled bitterly.
It turned out that he couldn't sleep not on purpose, but... he couldn't sleep next to her.
Ah, yes!
He told Qin Chuan that when he saw her, he thought of his mother.
He said he couldn't breathe.
Her body was stiff and it took her a long time to move. Then she picked up the coat next to her and covered him with it.
Snap——
The falling tears fell on Gu Xiuyuan's hands.
Listening to her leave, Gu Xiuyuan slowly clenched his hands.
…
That night, Ji Shuyu sat in the baby's room all night and her body became stiff.
"Young Madam, why are you here?"
Auntie came in and was startled to see him.
"Just came in." She stood up stiffly, "Let's have a simple breakfast. I made an appointment with Chenchen for a physical examination early today."
"Oh, okay."
The atmosphere was dull during breakfast.
The two aunts noticed something was wrong and left on the pretext of packing things for the baby.
"The baby has a checkup and vaccinations today. Are you free?"
"Vaccine?" Gu Xiuyuan seemed to have forgotten. He checked the time and apologized, "I have an important meeting today."
"What about tomorrow?" Ji Shuyu raised her eyes.
"I have a short errand tomorrow," he said. "I have to leave tonight."
Another business trip.
Ji Shuyu looked at him. He lowered his head to eat breakfast, looking at his travel arrangements, and answered her perfunctorily without any hesitation.
"Xiuyuan, are you hiding something from me?"
"No." He smiled. "Don't let your imagination run wild. I'll be back early this afternoon."
…
Gu Xiuyuan was busy, so Ji Shuyu and her aunt took the two babies to get vaccinated.
After the vaccination, Chenchen kept crying and no matter how we tried to comfort him, his little face turned red from crying.
Gu Xiuyuan's phone was not connected, and Zhou Rui's phone was not answered. She had no choice but to call Ke Chengzhou and ask him if he had any adverse reactions to the previous treatment drugs and vaccines.
Ke Chengzhou had just arrived at a nearby hospital and rushed over as soon as he received the call.
The baby kept crying and Ji Shuyu's eyes turned red.
"Children may feel a little uncomfortable after vaccination, don't worry."
"Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Ji Shuyu listened, hugged her son tightly, and kissed his little face.
It’s okay if it’s not there. It’s okay if it’s not there.
"Baby, it's normal to cry a little. Some minor problems are inevitable. You don't have to be so nervous all the time."
Ji Shuyu nodded, "Doctor Ke, please come over."
"No." Ke Chengzhou touched the child's little face, "Let me hold you."
He has treated many babies, but he seems to be particularly fond of this little one.
Maybe, life is really difficult!
They got through so many dangerous and difficult moments together.
Strangely enough, when he held the child in his arms, the child actually stopped crying.
"Look, Yami misses me!"
Ji Shuyu, who was originally crying, was amused and then wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Ke Chengzhou glanced at the vaccination booklet and said, "You might get a fever after taking this vaccine. Just take care of yourself. Don't worry."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome." Ke Chengzhou looked at her and wanted to say something, but finally gave up.
He held Chenchen and teased him for a while. "Chenchen will only need some consolidation treatment in the future. He won't have any health problems."
Ji Shuyu nodded, finally feeling relieved.
Ke Chengzhou accompanied the two children for the examination, looked at the results of the examination form, and explained the situation to her in detail.
"This is a private phone number. If you have any questions, you can call me at any time." Ke Chengzhou wrote down his number and handed it to her.
"Thanks……"
"Miss, you have said it many times."
"Then when it's convenient for you, come and have dinner with An An!"
"good."
…
It was already afternoon when Ji Shuyu returned home with her two children, and Gu Xiuyuan's call finally came.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong?"
"Chenchen is not feeling well, can you come back?"
"What happened to Chenchen?"
"Cry." Ji Shuyu held the phone tightly. "The doctor said this vaccine will cause fever. Can you not leave today?"
“…”
There was no immediate response from the other end of the line.
Ji Shuyu's heart also began to sink slowly.
She didn't want him to be selfless, nor did she want him to throw his feelings for the company aside again because of personal reasons.
She just wanted his attitude, his words.
"I'll make the arrangements."
Gu Xiuyuan is back, although a little late, but... he is back.
He took a quick bath and then went into the nursery to see the baby.
The little guy looked a little uncomfortable, his fair face was red.
"I called my family doctor and he'll be here tonight. Don't worry."
"What about you?" Ji Shuyu asked, "Are you still leaving?"
“…”
Gu Xiuyuan slowly clenched the child's hand.
He could sense her dissatisfaction and disappointment, then suppressed the heartache and nodded.
"Um."
Ji Shuyu clenched her hands slowly, lowered her head, and couldn't explain the feeling in her heart.
evening.
Gu Xiuyuan packed his things for the business trip by himself, and Zhou Rui came to pick him up.
"Boss, we have a package. You said it was at home. Did you bring it?"
"The study." Gu Xiuyuan replied.
Zhou Rui felt it was inconvenient for him to enter the Boss's study, and glanced at Ji Shuyu who was sitting next to him with a pleading look.
"Wait a mininute."
Ji Shuyu stood up and walked into the study.
I opened the drawer, but instead of seeing the document they mentioned, I saw a 'divorce agreement'...
