Chapter 58 He murmured softly as he spoke…
Lü Dongyi didn't quite understand...
My senior classmate, whose hands were shaking from low blood sugar, had no appetite at all. He was holding his phone, as if his soul was glued to the screen.
I'm thinking of having Dr. Xiang, a psychiatrist, take a look. Could it be that the surgery he had these past few days has made him a bit stupid?
"Senior brother..."
The cafeteria is crowded and noisy right now.
Lu Dong across from him opened his mouth and called out to him.
Guan Yue felt that he couldn't hear anything.
They didn't care.
Everything in the world is just a facade.
All that's left is that photo on the screen.
That selfie of the little capybara.
The young man in the photo only showed half of his face and his thumb next to his face.
The shooting angles were also quite strange.
It's a funny shot that's almost like a close-up of someone's face.
But those almond-shaped eyes were still very beautiful, as if they were trying to steal something away through the screen.
Guan Yue stared at the screen, his Adam's apple bobbing involuntarily.
Anyone who didn't know better would think that this doctor's phone was the only thing he ate with his meal.
Lu Dongyi panicked a little: "Senior brother, are you alright...?"
"It's nothing." Guan Yue finally spared a little energy to appease his talkative junior brother, "Reply to the message."
"Oh..." What do you mean? He was clearly just groping the screen.
etc......
Lu Dongyi suddenly made sense of things and a sly smile appeared on his face: "Did your sister-in-law... send you something? You're eating really well, senior brother!"
Guan Yue suddenly looked up and noticed Lü Dongyi's expression. He immediately frowned and defensively covered his phone screen: "Don't make wild guesses, and don't even think about it."
"Wow, senior brother... your possessiveness is too much..." He doesn't even give him space to think, tsk tsk.
Fortunately, Lü Dongyi didn't see the photo.
If you see that your sister-in-law only sent a close-up of half her face to your senior...
Then he definitely couldn't help but laugh.
Then he was kicked out of the sect by his senior brother...
Pei Xi kicked a small stone by the roadside.
It's been three or four minutes since it was sent...
Why does it seem like there's been no reply?
After he took the photos, he didn't even dare to look at them closely before sending them out.
After sending the message, I stuffed my phone into my coat pocket and then spent a long time kicking small stones on the roadside.
There weren't any stones left for him to kick.
The phone in my pocket finally went numb for a moment.
My heart felt numb too.
The little capybara stopped at the roadside, its feet flailing about, and reached out to take out its phone.
Chef Guan: [If it's delicious, I'll make it again tomorrow.]
Chef Guan: [I want to see your full face tomorrow.]
Yay!
What are you doing?
My earlobes, which had finally stopped turning red, are now launching another attack.
Seven: [We can't see each other every day.]
Seven: [Do I still need to post photos?]
Chef Guan: [We haven't met yet.]
Seven: [Oh, oh.]
My ears started to feel hot.
Chef Guan: [There's a departmental monthly meeting tonight.]
Chef Guan: [I have to work overtime.]
Chef Guan: [I probably won't be back for dinner.]
Seven: [Okay.]
Seven: [I'll take care of it myself tonight.]
Chef Guan: [What are you going to eat?]
Seven: [Haven't decided yet. /[Laughing emoji]]
Chef Guan: [You need to take photos for me; you can't just eat it half-heartedly.]
Seven: [Mmm.]
Seven: [Kapibala nodding.jpg]
He's been really into using this new Kapibal emoji set lately; Su Mo and Xiao Jia used to say he looked like Kapibal.
He was still unconvinced.
Later on, I found the little thing to be quite cute.
Seven: [I'm going to work now.]
Seven: [Let's talk later. /[waves]]
Chef Guan: [Hmm.]
The young man put his phone back in his pocket.
All right.
He still felt something was off.
He still didn't dare to go into the chat interface to look at the selfie he had sent.
No, no, that won't do.
I can't think about it anymore.
The capybara patted its cheeks, trying to clear its head.
This afternoon I need to finish up that Ming and Qing dynasty thread-bound ancient book.
I need to concentrate.
He drank the glass of ice water Su Mo poured for him to cool down before returning to his workstation and reconnecting with his precious ancient books.
In the brief moments of contact, my heart gradually calmed down.
I was busy until almost five o'clock, and the finishing work was just completed.
The neck, which has been constantly hunched over, will start to ache retaliatory.
It felt like a heavy stone was stuck in the back of his neck.
Pei Xi turned her neck and moved it around.
The cervical vertebrae made a clicking sound as they moved.
Su Mo, who was working at the next desk, heard it all: "Xiao Qi, if you don't take care of your cervical spine, it will definitely be more serious than Lao He's when you get older."
"Hey, I know a massage parlor. The masseur there is really professional. He even cured my migraine last time." Old He poked his head out from his workstation when he heard his name mentioned. "You guys can give it a try. The price is reasonable too."
Su Mo: "Where?"
Old He: "On Changhe Street..."
Su Mo: "Shall we go together?"
Old He: "You guys go ahead, I need to go home and nurse my baby."
Su Mo: "Xiao Qi, let's go then."
Old He: "You can find another person to join you. There's a discount for a group purchase of three people, which is a great deal."
Pei Xi pressed her hand against the back of her neck and pressed hard. It really hurt a bit today, and she couldn't bear it. "Well, that's fine. Let's ask Master if he wants to go."
At exactly 5 p.m., Lao Jiang came out of his office on time.
Pei Qi and Su Mo had just put on their coats and were getting ready to leave work.
Pei Xi: "Master, would you like to go for a massage together?"
“You guys go ahead, I can’t enjoy that stuff, it hurt me for days after I got it pressed before…” Old Jiang waved his hand, “Besides, you wretched disciples, you complained to your master’s wife about me smoking, and now look what’s happened, your master’s wife has made it so that I have to be home by 5:30, or I won’t get dinner.”
Old Chiang Kai-shek sighed deeply: "I've lived my whole life, it hasn't been easy for me..."
"I'm not going to waste any more time talking to you. If we don't leave now, I'll be too late."
The old man walked briskly out of the studio, his hands behind his back.
Pei Qi and Su Mo followed closely behind as they went downstairs.
As a result, he ran into Tong Jinnian, who had just returned from a business trip, at the company gate.
"Xiaoqi, Amo, are you going out for dinner together?" Tong Jinnian adjusted his glasses, his eyes showing surprise. "I haven't eaten yet either. Come along, it's on me."
Pei Qi stopped in his tracks.
Since their last chat on WeChat, the two of them haven't been in contact again.
Our last conversation wasn't very pleasant, so this one is a bit awkward.
Su Mo waved her hand: "No need, let's go for a massage. The massage package includes food."
"Hey, do you want to come? The three-person set meal is more affordable." Su Mo suddenly remembered what Lao He had just said.
Tong Jinnian: Sure, my neck has been a bit sore these past couple of days.
Su Mo: "Okay, let's go together then."
Pei Xi had no choice but to get into Tong Jinnian's car.
It is a spacious SUV.
As soon as he sat down, Pei Qi took out his phone.
It's 5:23 PM now. I wonder if Dr. Guan is busy.
But whether it's busy or not.
He should leave a message and tell Dr. Guan.
After all, it seems that Dr. Guan particularly dislikes Tong Shige.
So he clicked into the chat box with Dr. Guan.
Seven: [I'm heading to the massage parlor because my neck is really sore today.]
Seven: [With Senior Brother Su and Senior Brother Tong.]
He was also worried that sending too many messages would be inappropriate, so he condensed the key information into two messages.
Guan Yue didn't see the two messages in time; he was still performing an appendectomy that had been added to the schedule.
Fortunately, it was just simple appendicitis, and the surgery went smoothly, taking about half an hour.
It was already six o'clock when I got off the operating table. I didn't have time to check my phone messages carefully because I had to rush to the department's monthly meeting.
By the time he arrived, the leaders and head nurses had already begun giving instructions.
Lu Dongyi had reserved a seat for him, and the man entered through the back door, bending down to get in.
After the leaders finished speaking, everyone ate some snacks.
Lu Dong handed him a slice of bacon pizza: "Don't worry, I just washed my hands."
Guan Yue took it, but didn't eat it right away: "Mmm."
He wanted to check if that stinky capybara had sent him any messages and what it had for dinner.
Xiao You then joined the conversation: "This month's meeting was the same; it always had to take up our after-get off work hours. Seriously, they say the department is everyone's second home, but who really considers the department their home...?"
Lü Dongyi: "Could you please keep your voice down? Are you out of your mind?"
Xiao You: "......"
Guan Yue suddenly stood up from his seat.
Xiao You was so frightened that he thought there was a leader lurking behind him.
He frowned, already prepared to die.
However, no leader came over. Guan Yue stuffed the pizza in his hand into Lü Dongyi's mouth and said, "You eat it yourself. I'm going out for a bit."
Lu Dongyi, with pizza still in his mouth, hadn't even reacted when the man hurriedly walked out of the office.
The man's fingers danced across the keyboard.
G: [Tong Jinnian?]
G: [Did you and Tong Jinnian go for a massage?]
G: [Where do I get a massage?]
G: [Location.]
Now it's Pei Xi's turn to not receive messages.
Because he was having his shoulders massaged by a masseuse: "Ahhh..."
It hurts so much.
It's like paying someone to beat you up.
"Young man, your shoulders are in bad shape. I need to fix them for you." The old man grabbed his arms and started bending and twisting them in various ways. "If it's unobstructed, it won't hurt. If it hurts, it's blocked."
Pei Xi gritted her teeth, her face turning red.
Finally, the master released his arms and began to press hard on the joints in his shoulders and neck.
Pei Qi rested her chin on the massage bed, and the phone next to her suddenly kept lighting up.
He unlocked the screen listlessly.
It was a video call from Guan Yue.
Pei Xi's mind went blank for several seconds.
I wonder what an ugly sight he looks in now...
How to receive a video call.
But if he doesn't answer the video call, he doesn't have time to type.
After hesitating for a moment, he answered the call anyway.
"Guan... Ahhhhh." Hmm... He was once again given a "carp flip" by the professional mechanic who grabbed both arms on either side.
In the video, Guan Yue saw a young man whose shoulders were bent.
The young man was wearing a one-size-fits-all bathrobe from the massage parlor, revealing his delicate collarbones. The skin on his neck was pink, and the pink color spread all the way down to his earlobes. His arms were being pulled back.
Her face was flushed, and after she cried out, she dazed herself and increased her breathing.
With that face staring at the video, she softly murmured, "Dr. Guan..."
This is actually just a manifestation of human discomfort due to pain during massage.
but.
Now it's the capybara facing the frosty wolf.
