Chapter 66 Birds of a feather flock together
He didn't answer her question, but glanced at Gu Zhenbei, who was lying on the bed with a pale face and looked as if he had lost half his life, with a strange look in his eyes. "I don't want to be fed with manure water, so keep it for yourself."
The man who ate the food she cooked yesterday is now poisoned and lying in bed. This is a clear lesson from the past.
As expected, you can’t just accept things given by others.
If Gu Zhenbei had abided by military discipline and adhered to the principle of not taking a single needle or thread from the people, he would not be lying here half-dead at this moment.
Xu Niannian was speechless, but she still argued, "Maybe it's not because of my potatoes. Maybe it's because of other foods."
Qian Jingsheng didn't continue talking to her. He stood at the door, intending to leave after the two of them came back.
Xu Niannian handed him an apple and said, "Try it. It's so big, it must be sweet."
Qian Jingsheng didn’t want to talk anymore. He bought it himself, didn’t he know?
Wen Zhu and Qian Xusen went to wash their hands. When they were almost done washing their skin, they put their hands under their noses and smelled them again and again. After making sure there was no strange smell, they went to the ward together.
"Don't forget, you still owe me a meal of pickled fish. I remember it! For a bite of food, I made such a great sacrifice! Hey, who can blame me for being kind-hearted?"
"Then don't eat it."
"That won't do! I sacrificed so much to get this, why shouldn't I eat it?"
As soon as the two of them walked to the door of the ward, they saw Xu Niannian scream "Ouch" and fall onto Qian Jingsheng.
Wen Zhu's eyes twitched. If he fell down again, all his treatment would be in vain!
What's wrong with the male and female protagonists? They are really like-minded and both like to scam people!
Qian Jingsheng had already dodged nimbly and moved away.
Let her fall to the ground.
He didn't dare stay for a moment, and walked out with big strides, calling Wen Zhu and Qian Xusen who had just walked out the door and were still in shock.
The three of them tacitly ran towards the entrance of the clinic without looking back.
It feels like there is an evil ghost chasing you.
He had a very bad impression of the girl named Xu, and always felt that there was a sense of decay when he was around her.
Even though he was a staunch materialist, he still instinctively felt that if he got close to her, he would be sucked dry of blood and flesh. Therefore, the best policy was to leave this troubled place as soon as possible.
Leaving ten dollars behind was his duty to care for his subordinates and avoid gossip. Staying away was driven by his instinctive sense of danger.
Xu Niannian looked at the man who was avoiding her as if he were the plague god, and she gritted her teeth in anger.
She patted her dirty pants and stood up, full of resentment.
If she hadn't heard yesterday that his rank was higher than Brother Gu's and that he was not bad looking, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to make friends with him. So what if he had a partner? As long as he wasn't married, he was still free.
The purpose is to leave a way out for myself. In case if I and Gu Zhenbei fail in the future, I will still have an option.
Thinking of Wen Zhu beside him, Xu Niannian could only grit her teeth. Seeing that Gu Zhenbei showed no signs of waking up, she took out a piece of crumpled paper from her pocket.
If Wen Zhu saw it, he would definitely find that this was the short story he wrote during his lunch break that he felt was a bit inappropriate.
Xu Niannian hadn't originally intended to take her thing, but she left late, and coincidentally, Wen Zhu's little follower was whispering about how good Wen Zhu's writing was.
She was jealous for a moment, and seeing that there was no one in the classroom and everyone had gone to eat, she took out this thing for some unknown reason.
She also wanted to submit her own work, but her mother arranged for her to attend school on a commuter basis, which meant she had to set up a stall after school every night from Monday to Friday. She even had to stay up late to do her homework, so she could only copy Wen Zhu's work and mail it to him. She thought she would create her own work later when she had time.
I wonder what Wen Zhu’s reaction would be when he found out that she had already published the story when he sent it to her?
Just thinking about it, every cell in Xu Niannian's body was filled with excitement.
Gu Zhenbei slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was the somewhat old ceiling of the clinic.
I lowered my eyes and caught sight of the back of someone writing at his desk.
Thinking that the last person he saw before he fell into a coma was Wen Zhu, he subconsciously felt happy.
She is indeed a kind-hearted person. She even sent me to the clinic.
But my mouth feels weird. To put it bluntly, it feels like I've eaten shit.
But he couldn't ask right now, so he just made small talk.
"Wen Zhu, thank you for saving me. I..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Xu Niannian's face turning towards him, "Brother Gu, are you awake?"
Gu Zhenbei couldn't believe it. How could it be her? Where is Wen Zhu?
"Where is Wen Zhu? Didn't she bring me here?"
Xu Niannian smiled shyly, "Brother Gu, what are you talking about? It was me all along. I met you unconscious on the road, and it took me a lot of effort to get you to the hospital. Now my arms are so sore that I can't even lift them!"
Gu Zhenbei was a little bit unbelievable, but the person in front of him was indeed not Wen Zhu. He could only remain silent, thinking that he was hallucinating.
"The doctor said you have food poisoning and has already induced vomiting. After the IV drip, you just need to rest for a day or two to be fine."
"Thank you, then."
"It's what I should do. You saved me yesterday, so this is my way of repaying you."
Xu Niannian smiled innocently. Seeing her writing something, Gu Zhenbei asked curiously.
"I'm sorry for asking you to do your homework here. I'm fine now. You can go back. Don't worry about me."
Xu Niannian smiled and handed the story she had just copied to Gu Zhenbei. "Look, how is my story? This is the manuscript I plan to submit to the newspaper. What do you think about it?"
After reading it, Gu Zhenbei was shocked. He didn't expect that a 17-year-old girl could write such a profound story.
Although the writing style and story are very good, it feels weird, and I always feel that something is not right. It's just that he just woke up, and now there is a strange smell in his stomach, mouth, and the girl in front of him, and his head is dizzy, so he didn't really understand what's weird about the story.
So I didn’t investigate further.
Xu Niannian poured him water and asked him if he wanted to wash up. She was busy running around and Gu Zhenbei felt very happy.
He could see that this girl treated him differently, but he still wanted to win over Wen Zhu.
After all, no matter how considerate he is, he is not as valuable as her superb medical skills.
So I can only pretend not to understand and leave some wiggle room for myself.
——
Wen Zhu had already returned home and happened to meet Jiang Qin who was pushing a cart back.
"Xiao Zhu, why are you back so late? Are you hungry?"
"I want to eat rice crust."
Jiang Qin patted her head lovingly, "Okay."
Jiang Jianye also arrived home. Seeing his mother petting his sister's head, he quickly walked over and did the same. Wen Zhu stood obediently and let him pet her head. After three minutes, he still didn't stop, as if petting a cat. Wen Zhu could only remind him, "Third brother, don't pet me bald, just touch it once." Jiang Jianye withdrew his hand, feeling a little regretful.
"Oh well."
"Where are my second brother and my dad?" Wen Zhu put down his water cup and asked when he saw that no one was at home.
"Your second brother went to pick up his comrade. Didn't you forget that we agreed to check his leg today? He was worried, so he went to pick him up."
Wen Zhu then remembered that they had agreed to meet today, but since his family suddenly moved to town, he did have to pick him up, after all, Wang Liang had difficulty walking.
She took advantage of her mother's cooking time to rewrite the short story.
