Chapter 139 You Want Me to Be Yourself
While eating cakes, Zhou Qing didn't believe what Yu Ze said. Assistant Cao and Doctor Qu... He had never thought about it. Besides, Assistant Cao was always in a hurry and calculated every minute and every second accurately. How could he suddenly be related to Qu Tian?
"I asked the guard when I came out. Cao Nanyu goes to the hospital almost every day, saying he feeds Ah Huang. But it's just one dog. Is it necessary to go every day? I heard that the dog has become so skinny that it could kill a person if it sat on its butt!"
Zhou Qing stuffed a mouthful of chocolate cake blankly, thinking, is it so fierce?
"Bored at home, huh?" Yu Ze nuzzled his lover's cheek. Zhou Qing wasn't one for gossip, but at the moment, he was listening with gusto, as if anything interesting outside the house could pique his interest. "Just wait another half a month, and we'll just stay home and take care of it."
"Yeah." Zhou Qing nodded, touched the cup and took a sip of hot tea.
However, the next morning, Wen Shuang started gossiping with Zhou Qing. Some things are better left unsaid, but once you start talking about them, you'll find traces everywhere. Yes, why is Cao Nanyu acting like she has no rice at home? She packs up all the leftovers and bones. With so many stray dogs, why is she staring at the one feeding the dog in the hospital?
"Feeding the dog is a small matter, falling in love is a big matter. In fact, I've thought about it carefully. Doctor Qu is a good guy. He's handsome and responsible, but he doesn't talk much." Wen Shuang said softly. If Cao Nanyu likes him, then they would be a match made in heaven. But if it were him, he would definitely not be able to accept it, because Qu Tian was really too cold and spoke very little. Before, when he was accompanying Zhou Qing in the hospital, whenever he met men making rounds, they would be as businesslike as if they were reporting on their work. If they didn't say anything after the round, Qu Tian wouldn't say a word either, no matter how awkward the atmosphere was.
Zhou Qingying said, "Assistant Cao should just find someone he likes. I don't think he's the type to tolerate being wronged. I think he's got a crush on Qu Tian."
Oh, more than just not being wronged, Wen Shuang thought, he has been very pampered in the past two years. If anyone bullies him, he will bully him back on the spot. If he can't beat them, he will find Xuan Zhe. Anyway, he will never let it go overnight.
It seemed that everyone in every circle had begun to know about it, except Cao Nanyu, who didn't notice much. It was not his fault, as he was usually busy with work, and he was just hanging on an ambiguous thread with Qu Tian. Everything seemed to be changing slowly, but it also seemed to stop here.
Having said that, Qu Tian's skills are quite good. After the massage that day, Cao Nanyu was full of energy for several days. However, the scar had healed and the pain was forgotten. After two consecutive nights, his back began to ache again, which was a sign of a resurgence.
It was already two o'clock in the morning when Cao Nanyu got home. After taking a shower and washing up, he felt uncomfortable everywhere as soon as he lay on the bed. He couldn't help but miss that big hand. The palm was warm and the strength was just right. After pressing it, the bones became obedient. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he felt like he was reborn.
The temptation was too great, or maybe he hadn't been to the hospital for a few days and had other thoughts in his mind. Anyway, Cao Nanyu couldn't help but send a message to Qu Tian: [Doctor, are you free recently? Press it for me again. This time I won't take advantage of you. I'll treat you to a meal!] Cao Nanyu originally wanted to say "I'll pay", but it felt inexplicably glaring and unfamiliar, so he changed it to this sentence. Then he looked at the time. According to Qu Tian's old-fashioned work and rest schedule, he would have fallen asleep a long time ago. He checked the alarm clock, and finally stuffed the phone under the pillow, turned over, and fell into a deep dream.
The dream was full of chaos, but suddenly the scene changed. Cao Nanyu was standing at a wedding. He lowered his head and looked carefully at the words on the small red cloth on his chest: Best Man.
Best man Cao Nanyu was shocked. Who is the groom?
As the voice of "Congratulations to the newlyweds" came from afar, Cao Nanyu looked up and saw Qu Tian, handsome and tall in a black suit, with a rare smile on his face. The bride was in a white wedding dress, and only a vague glimpse of her graceful figure was visible. It should have been a scene overflowing with happiness, but for some reason a chill suddenly exploded from his heart, accompanied by a palpitation. Cao Nanyu, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. He did not move for a long time, until he could no longer hold his breath and his neck turned red. Then he realized that it was all a dream. He buried himself in the quilt and began to breathe heavily.
So scary!
Cao Nanyu thought so, and then he was stunned. Why was he so anxious about Qu Tian getting married?
Yeah, why is he panicking?
The feeling in the dream was too real and has not faded until now, which can easily undermine a person's will. Cao Nanyu silently scolded himself, and then grabbed the phone involuntarily. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to send a message to Qu Tian and ask him what he was doing.
Sometimes clarity of mind comes so suddenly. On a foggy morning, Cao Nanyu gradually discovered some emotions hidden deep inside after washing away the cold sweat over and over again.
He made up his mind and opened his phone, but what caught his eye was Qu Tian's message: [If you have time, I'm on duty all day today. Let me know when you come.]
What does it mean to change from sunny to sunny in a second? Assistant Cao's smile widened uncontrollably, and he twisted back and forth on the bed three times while holding his phone.
Cao Nanyu was somewhat absent-minded the entire day, completely ignoring the three attempts to deliver the documents and the probing and hints between the lines of Xuanzhe's writing. He just perfunctorily replied with "hmm, hmm, ahhh", almost having the expression "I'm in love and don't want to focus on work" written on his face.
Xuanzhe hummed in his heart, and when his wings are strong, he will fly away directly. It is difficult to say hello after following him for so many years.
President Xuan was very angry and the consequences were serious.
At 5 o'clock, Cao Nanyu was the first one to rush out of the Quanyi Building after work. The newcomers who watched him work so hard were shocked as if they had seen a ghost. What happened to Assistant Cao? Did he take the wrong medicine? Was he working overtime? What about the dinner party? Why did he drive away in his own car?
Xuanzhe stood on a high building and watched Cao Nanyu driving in a direction completely opposite to his home, heading towards the hospital.
Xuanzhe called Wen Shuang and said, "Go straight to the hospital and take you to catch the adulterer."
Wen Shuang understood immediately, and her fighting spirit was high: "I'll bring a stick with me!"
Once caught, they will be separated! That’s how it’s played out in TV dramas!
"It's time to go, Dr. Qu." The nurse who was leaving get off work greeted Qu Tian who had just finished his ward rounds.
One of them was very grateful: "Thank you, Dr. Qu, for helping me with my shift. Long live Dr. Qu!" Normally, Dr. Qu should have gotten off work on time today, but he switched shifts with her as soon as she arrived at the hospital, and said he would still pay her overtime pay. His attitude was so resolute that the young nurse didn't dare to refuse. She felt dizzy when she came out of Qu Tian's office. There was such a good thing.
However, Qu Tian is famous for his strange temper. He is silent and rigid, and I think he has very few extracurricular activities. Maybe for him, working overtime is a kind of enjoyment! In short, ordinary people cannot understand the world of the big guys.
As soon as Cao Nanyu stepped into the elevator, he felt severe pain in his back. It was just as Wen Shuang said, he was extremely delicate.
They had already greeted each other on the way, and when they arrived at the door, Cao Nanyu quickly put aside some distracting thoughts and knocked on the door.
"Come in." The cool and pleasant voice tickled Assistant Cao's ears again.
Qu Tian had already laid out the folding bed and the medical mattress. The air was filled with the smell of safflower medicinal wine, which was not pleasant, but Cao Nanyu surprisingly did not mind it and even sniffed it twice.
Cao Nanyu's pain wasn't entirely psychological. He looked pale and ugly. When he took off his coat, he held his arms behind his back and stopped with a "hiss". Qu Tian frowned fiercely when he saw this. He strode forward, looking like the boss about to hit him, but in fact, he used just enough strength to help Cao Nanyu take off his coat. When it was his turn to take off his shirt, Qu Tian asked, "Can you do it yourself?"
Of course Cao Nanyu wanted to say yes, but the words on his lips were swallowed inexplicably. He suddenly grinned and raised his eyebrows at Qu Tian in a scoundrelly manner: "What if you can't?"
Qu Tian answered him with practical actions.
The man was more than a head taller than him, and he could only lean over to help Cao Nanyu unbutton his shirt. This posture made their eyes level for the first time, and their breaths intertwined in an instant.
Don't be nervous! You're not nervous at all! Cao Nanyu was furious in his heart, but his nose and mouth were blocked. He held his breath and concentrated until he felt a chill on his body. It was his shirt that Qu Tian had taken off. The material flowed down his arm and finally got stuck at the wrist. The man pulled it off easily. Qu Tian threw the shirt on the sofa and said after he straightened up, "Breathe."
Cao Nanyu: “…” He should just put on his clothes and leave. He really can’t afford to lose face like this.
"Come up." Qu Tian patted the bed and began to rub the medicinal wine to warm it up.
There was another brief torture, and after the severe pain, the muscles and bones gradually adapted. Qu Tian observed Cao Nanyu's expression calmly, and when he saw his tightly furrowed brows relax, he knew that the young man liked this force.
"Don't you pay attention to maintenance in your daily life?" Qu Tian asked.
"Hey~ When I'm busy, I feel like I can fly to the sky as soon as my feet leave the ground. How can I care about these things?" Cao Nanyu felt comfortable and was willing to talk more with Qu Tian. "Quanyi is a big company, everyone is busy. Every time a new employee joins, there are a lot of tears within three days. Isn't it all for the sake of life? Anyway, I'm still young..."
"Youth is not an asset when it comes to your health," Qu Tian interrupted. "The hospital just admitted a patient the day before yesterday. He's 24 years old and his family is quite wealthy. He relied on his youth to stay up late, partying, playing games, and acting recklessly. He ended up with advanced stomach cancer, the kind that no amount of money can save him. The pain is so severe he can't sleep all night."
"Don't scare me." Cao Nanyu grumbled, "I eat at a fixed time and place."
Qu Tian said nothing. While applying the ointment to Cao Nanyu, he tapped on his phone. About three minutes later, Qu Tian said, "I've made an appointment for a checkup for you. Come over the day after tomorrow."
If you didn't know him, you would think he was his father. Cao Nanyu complained in his heart, but inexplicably honey flowed out of him, and he said happily, "Okay, I owe you two meals."
"Assistant Cao." Qu Tian took off the ointment, his eyes suddenly deep and mysterious. He raised his hand from Cao Nanyu's waist, causing a trembling sensation. His voice was particularly low: "Such a big favor, just treat me to a meal."
Cao Nanyu was also ignited with a certain impulse, and the fear of the morning came back. Under this stimulation, he instead gave birth to a courage, so he took advantage of the situation and said in a hoarse voice: "What should I do? You want me to marry you?"
After saying that, tinnitus came.
I am so bold...Cao Nanyu thought.
Outside the door, Xuanzhe and Wenshuang looked at each other, Xuanzhe's face was full of contempt: Is this
Why are you being so romantic? Let's get straight to the point!
