Chapter 11 Chapter 11 The Three of Us Together
Zhou Jing has lived for a long time and is a lawyer by profession, so he has heard a lot of insults from others, but this is the first time someone has called him a pervert.
Even after the call ended, he was still staring at the phone screen. After a while, he picked up the pen again to work, writing comments on the document with the tip of the pen. Suddenly, he paused, and his eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were slightly disturbed.
He minded, and after saying a word, he was called a pervert.
Zhou Jing raised his hand, and his watch showed 19:27. He set a rule for himself to finish the document before 8 pm. He still had time to call Li Chengchuan's fiancée and explain that he was not a pervert.
He picked up the phone, but before he could press a button, a WeChat voice call interrupted him.
Zhou Jing picked up the phone: "You'd better be busy."
"Of course I have something to do, Brother Zhou! I just heard from Xu Ye that your dinner party didn't happen. What happened? I was hoping you could get some information about Brother Li's fiancée from him!"
The person on the other end of the phone was chattering like a real chatterbox.
Zhou Jing frowned slightly, took out a blank A4 paper, and started writing with a pen.
The dinner did not take place, and Zhou Jing didn't know the reason. He only knew that Jiang Yuming received a phone call, and then he and Li Chengchuan left in a hurry.
After that, he called Li Chengchuan's fiancée and she was crying.
The dinner venue was the Wansheng Hotel, near the Huide Hospital where Jiang Yuming lived...
Clues fell on the paper and were connected under the golden tip of Zhou Jing's pen: Li Chengchuan's fiancée was in Huide Hospital after a car accident, and she encountered an accident today.
"Brother Zhou? Brother Zhou? Are you listening? Hey, I was supposed to go back to China, but something happened and I can't go back. Brother Zhou, can you go and ask about that woman?"
Without asking, Zhou Jing had already figured it out: "She had a car accident." That's why they couldn't get married.
"Car accident? She died?"
“Not dead.”
"That won't affect the marriage!" The caller was shocked. "Brother Li is such a persistent person, huh? I don't think death will affect the marriage. Brother Li will arrange a ghost marriage."
Zhou Jing also agreed that if Li Chengchuan wanted to marry someone, even if the other person had a broken leg, was disfigured, or was in a coma and became a vegetable, he would still marry them. At most, there were some circumstances in which they could not apply for a marriage certificate.
The only possibility for Li Chengchuan to give up is that he gives up on his own initiative, but how could Li Chengchuan give up on his own initiative? Unless there is something wrong with the other party.
"I know!" The chatterbox clapped his hands. "No wonder there was a car accident. That woman must have been cheating on me, and Brother Li went to catch her. Two cars were racing on the highway, and then, boom!"
"..." Zhou Jing pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, holding the phone away from his ear to avoid being infected by the caller and having his IQ lowered.
"Brother Li has suffered so much. As brothers, we must teach that treacherous woman a lesson." The chatterbox man sputtered, "Her cheating partner must not be let off either. How despicable must someone be to become a mistress? I absolutely will not be a mistress."
“…”
"Brother Zhou, you would never be a mistress, right?"
Zhou Jing held his forehead with his hand, fine strands of hair falling on his fingertips. He was too lazy to answer such a question: "No normal person would do that."
"Shouldn't a normal person always be watching his fiancée through surveillance?"
Outside the stairwell of the inpatient area, Li Chengchuan snatched the mobile phone from Jiang Yuming. The security guard in the monitoring room had retrieved the stairwell surveillance and was recording the video in real time through a video call.
Jiang Yuming slowly leaned against the snow-white wall, staring at the mobile phone in Li Chengchuan's hand with his beautiful eyes. As long as Li Chengchuan exited the call page with the security guard and went to the message list, he would find that he had added Xing Kui as a friend without his knowledge.
"She's crying." Li Chengchuan held the phone with no intention of moving the page. There was only worry in the eyes of the group's president. The veins on the back of his hand bulged out and his brows were shrouded in shadows.
Is she crying? Jiang Yuming subconsciously moved a step, wanting to see the scene, and then controlled his foot to move back: "She must be crying because you opened the jelly too slowly."
Li Chengchuan raised his eyelids and glared at Jiang Yuming fiercely: "Why don't you say that it was you who took her snacks and made her angry?"
He was in the bathroom at the time, so he could hear it clearly. "Jiang Yuming, even if you don't like her, you don't have to be so harsh on her. She's been on IV drips lately, and her mouth is bitter. What's wrong with wanting to eat something stimulating?"
Jiang Yuming felt the sharp gaze pierce him. He leaned against the wall and pulled out a bag of konjac juice: "Then you go give it to her?"
How could he allow Xing Kui to eat this!
If Li Chengchuan could agree to let Xing Kui eat whatever she wants, he would not have deliberately asked Xing Kui to book meals at Wansheng Hotel, and arranged a whole team of gold medal nutritionists at Wansheng to carefully prepare three meals a day for Xing Kui.
Both of them knew that the problem was not the food, but the phone call from Xing's mother.
They heard a little bit of sound, but they couldn't hear it clearly. The door of the stairwell was locked. Jiang Yuming licked his upper teeth. He remembered that Xing Kui had been laughing during the call until Xing's mother said something.
It's a dialect, cuang-ba...chuang-ba? Scar?
"Where is Xing Kui from?"
"I'm from Ganlin City, Nanzhou." Li Chengchuan tossed the phone back to Jiang Yuming, wiped his hands, took the disposable protective gloves handed by the nurse, and put them on. "What did you think of? She's been crying for a long time. If she cries any more, it will hurt her eyes. I need to open the door."
Jiang Yuming searched for Ganlin City's dialect related to scars. "I haven't found anything yet. You open the door first. There's no air conditioning in the stairwell. Don't let her get cold... Why don't I open the door?"
He's not a germaphobe, so he can just push it away.
Li Chengchuan frowned and looked at him.
I see. You don't want to ask someone else to open the door for your fiancée, right?
Yes, the lighting in the stairwell is not very good. The person sitting on the steps grieving alone, with the sound of the door opening, his tearful eyes suddenly burst into the warm yellow light of the corridor, and he would be seduced by the person opening the door.
You must be wrong, Jiang Yuming swiped the search page and shook his head. Li Chengchuan was well-known among his brothers for his lack of understanding of romance. If he could understand these things, he would not be jokingly called a widower king destined to be alone.
The door creaked open, and Jiang Yuming instinctively looked up. The dim light suppressed the light in the corridor, and grayish-white spots of light fluttered. Half a step behind the open door, Xing Kui was sitting in a wheelchair, looking up at them.
There was a light red in the eye sockets, and the moist and translucent pupils contained their reflections, revealing a look of fright and astonishment, and the weak lips were slightly open.
Pure and dreamy.
She sat in the darkness, the only light in the darkness.
The movement of the fingertips slowly stopped, and Jiang Yuming understood that Li Chengchuan was not trying to attract Xing Kui by opening the door, but was afraid that Xing Kui would surprise others.
"Are you waiting for me?" Xing Kui opened the door herself. Understanding the situation, she smiled with tear-stained eyelashes and pushed the wheelchair out. "Thank you, I'm fine. Go back."
Jiang Yuming looked up the Ganlin City dialect and walked to Li Chengchuan and gestured to him to look: treating scars as boils, minor illnesses as major ones, and thinking of yourself as precious.
In an instant, veins popped up on Li Chengchuan's forehead, and his handsome and sharp eyebrows revealed a bit of the ferocity of a greedy wolf biting someone. He stood behind Xing Kui, who was pushing the wheelchair back to the ward, and tore off the protective gloves on his hands.
"Calm down. In Xing Kui's eyes, you are just a fellow patient." Jiang Yuming held him back.
"I know my limits." Li Chengchuan shook off Jiang Yuming's hand and dialed the phone. "I'm going to destroy a Ganlin dialect phrase. No matter what method you use, within three days at the latest, I need everyone in Ganlin City to realize how disgusting it is to say this to a patient."
Jiang Yuming listened but didn't stop him. Regardless of whether it was sarcasm or ridicule, regardless of the severity of the patient's illness, this statement should not be made to a patient. It completely disregarded the pain, fear, and anxiety the patient was experiencing.
Besides, Xing Kui was in a car accident that almost took her life and damaged her brain and face, and she hasn't even been discharged from the hospital yet.
From now on, Xing Kui will never hear such words from anyone again, especially her family.
The wheelchair was pushed. Xing Kui turned around and saw Li Chengchuan and Jiang Yuming: "It's just a few steps away. I can push it myself."
Yes, you can adjust on your own, they are just doing what they can for you.
The ward is bright and warm. Because Li Chengchuan is a mysophobe, there is a special person to clean it regularly, and it is also cleaner than other wards.
Xing Kui felt the temperature of the indoor air conditioner and sat back on the hospital bed with the help of Jiang Yuming. Wansheng's people had delivered dinner earlier. The thermal insulation box had good thermal insulation performance and was still warm.
Open the box, and you will find spinach and pork liver soup, steamed pork ribs with pumpkin, shrimp and tofu, stir-fried seasonal vegetables... the aroma is so fragrant, and it is rich, healthy and delicious.
Xing Kui scooped a spoonful of tofu, mixed it with rice and put it into her mouth. She narrowed her eyes in happiness and suspected that Wansheng was doing charity. The dishes were well cooked and the quantity was sufficient, but the price quoted was lower than the market price.
The patient next door also ordered a meal at the Wansheng Hotel. He also had rice, but the dishes were different from hers - the manager wanted to help the boss create a topic of interaction, but Xing Kui had never been greedy for Li Chengchuan's meal, so she failed - the patient also opened the lunch box.
Jiang Yuming looked left and right: "Well, I'm the only one who has no food."
Xing Kui's cheeks flushed slightly, and she felt a little embarrassed to leave the doctor who had helped her so much hungry. "How about you eat with me? The hotel always gives me extra food, and they also have extra chopsticks. Uh, if it's convenient for you to ask, do you have any infectious diseases?"
She opened her mouth in embarrassment, thinking of her savior Xu Ye who had a brother who required people to get a physical examination report before eating. Although it was exaggerated, it had to be said that it was very useful and allowed people to eat with peace of mind.
Jiang Yuming: "What a coincidence! I just had a physical examination recently."
Xing Kui: “?”
What a coincidence? That's great!
During the consultation, Jiang Yuming encountered all kinds of questions. He didn't mind this question at all. He was looking for the physical examination report on his mobile phone and was about to sit down beside her bed.
"Stand up straight."
The perky buttocks hovered above the bed. Jiang Yuming paused, and Xing Kui was also stunned, and they both looked at bed number seven.
Li Chengchuan held the chopsticks and said in a cold voice, "Come here, eat with me."
How can her fellow patients compete with her for men?
The sun is rising from the west! The mysophobic man actually took the initiative to invite someone to eat at the same table! Oh, maybe it’s because Jiang Yuming has a physical examination report. Xing Kui thought about it and said, "You should come with me. I have lost my appetite due to the IV drip. I eat less and leave a lot of leftovers."
Li Chengchuan looked over and said, "He and I are eating, and there's no soy sauce in your meal."
No, people with wounds should avoid soy sauce. It's unclear whether there's any scientific basis for this. Xing Kui tries not to eat it for psychological comfort, but how would Li Chengchuan know? She told the manager in private. Oh, Li Chengchuan isn't blind; he can see her meal.
"It's delicious even without soy sauce, Dr. Jiang. Come with me and help me reduce waste."
"No, with me."
"Pfft." Jiang Yuming laughed and pulled up the medical examination report. His voice was very sweet. "Just now there was no food for me. Now both sides have food for me. Well, why don't the three of us eat together?"
Xing Kui & Li Chengchuan: "Agree."
Li Chengchuan also had a physical examination report, which he took out and showed to Xing Kui. Xing Kui had undergone various examinations in the hospital during this period, including physical examinations, and he also took it out and showed it to her.
Boxes of food were placed on the bedside table, and three people who were sure they did not have any infectious diseases sat on three sides.
Picking up the chopsticks, Jiang Yuming untied the blue medical mask, and a face as beautiful as a red rose was casually exposed under the indoor light.
Xing Kui was stunned, the ribs she had picked up falling into the bowl. It was the first time she saw Jiang Yuming's face without a mask. Oh my god, is this even possible? How could someone so beautiful exist?
I had clearly seen his face from the doctor’s name tag, but I was still deeply shocked when I saw his true appearance with my own eyes!
He is beautiful and extremely aggressive. You can tell he is a man at first glance. His nose, lips, and jaw are all created by nature, especially his lips, which have a full upper lip and a thin lower lip, and are the color of a red rose.
Xing Kui lowered her head and picked up the fallen ribs. She felt like she had an appetite! Looking at Li Chengchuan across from her, who had a completely different style from Jiang Yuming, she must have felt even more... Why does the patient have such a sour face? Don't mess with him, don't mess with him. Don't look at him anymore.
Li Chengchuan pursed his lips even tighter, pinched the chopsticks with his nails, and felt that he should have asked Jiang Yuming to leave.
The phone lit up, and he glanced at it, a hint of joy flashing across his eyes: "Zhou Jing agreed to take your case."
Xing Kui was delighted. Li Chengchuan said he would introduce a lawyer to her. Just as she was about to speak, her cell phone rang. The caller number looked familiar. It was the scammer who heard her crying.
Pick up: "Hello, liar, I really don't have any money. I even have to share a table to eat. Don't call me again."
After hanging up, he said to Li Chengchuan, "Can I add Lawyer Zhou Jing on WeChat?"
