Chapter 253 The man who said he would carry her home in the dream
Shen Zhichu sat in the waiting area in a daze, looking at the unfamiliar environment and feeling alone for the first time.
Hearing someone calling her name, Shen Zhichu stood up and went to get her gastroscopy report. She looked at the picture and it seemed normal.
"If you don't understand something, ask your doctor."
Shen Zhichu said "thank you" and took the gastroscopy image to find the attending doctor, asking him to help check the condition of her stomach.
During the waiting process, it is inevitable to feel fear and anxiety, fearing that you might accidentally get a serious illness that cannot be cured.
The doctor looked through it carefully and said, "All indicators are normal. Your stomach..." He paused.
Shen Zhichu's heart suddenly lifted up: "What's wrong with my stomach?"
What she was most worried about was her stomach, after all, it hurt so much every day.
"You have a stomach ulcer. Have you ever vomited blood? Besides that, you've had stomach bleeding before."
"I know." Shen Zhichu asked, "Besides these, there are no other major problems, right?"
The doctor's eyes narrowed. "Yes, but these are not minor problems. If they are not treated, they will develop into stomach cancer."
When Shen Zhichu heard the word "gastric cancer", his fingertips shrank involuntarily, and there it was again, that strong sense of familiarity.
"As for your brain, the examination showed neurasthenia. Don't be too nervous and just rest well."
Shen Zhichu nodded and took the medical report. Seeing that she was standing there and didn't want to leave, the doctor hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "How about I prescribe some medicine for you?"
Shen Zhichu came back to her senses and said, "No, I have medicine at home." She didn't need to eat anymore if she had more medicine.
The doctor gave her a few more precautions and told her not to think too much about it.
Shen Zhichu took the examination report and left the room. What she didn't know was that after she left, the doctor pulled a tissue to wipe the cold sweat from his face.
………
Shen Zhichu did not go back immediately. She sat on a chair in the hospital corridor and stared at the examination report in her hand. The words Sun Yan said to her kept appearing in her mind.
She felt very uneasy and her stomach began to ache again. Shen Zhichu folded the examination report and put it in her bag.
I looked up at the road sign, and my scattered gaze finally stopped at the obstetrics and gynecology department.
The cell phone in the bag rang at this time. Shen Zhichu dug it out and saw that it was Li Jingshen calling, so he quickly answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Wife, I heard from Mrs. Zhang that you left without even having dinner?"
Shen Zhichu said lightly, "Hmm."
Li Jingshen asked again on the phone: "Where are you? Have you had breakfast?"
After Shen Zhichu finished her physical examination, she didn't intend to hide it from Li Jingshen. When he asked her, she said, "I'm in the hospital."
"What's wrong with you?"
"If you don't feel any discomfort, just get a physical examination."
Li Jingshen breathed a sigh of relief: "If you feel unwell, you can call a family doctor, Ji Shiyan will do."
"I see."
"Haven't you eaten yet?"
Shen Zhichu immediately said: "I'll go eat now."
After she hung up the phone, she walked out. There were many breakfast shops in front of the hospital. Shen Zhichu chose a porridge shop, ate half a bowl, and then looked in the direction of the hospital. Then she took out her mobile phone and looked at it. It was still early, only ten o'clock. She went in for some unknown reason and made an appointment with the obstetrics and gynecology department this time. She didn't know what she was thinking and actually went to get an ovulation injection.
Ovulation injections have many side effects, including abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, and headaches. The harm is not serious, and the main purpose is to increase the chance of pregnancy.
………………
Chen Zhichu took a taxi back to the villa. As soon as she got home, she locked herself in the toilet and vomited all the porridge she had eaten in the morning. She brought this upon herself and deserved it.
Shen Zhichu didn't know what he was thinking. It was as if his body was taken away by something. He followed his subconscious to the hospital, had his brain and stomach checked, and was inexplicably given an ovulation injection.
All because of something an insignificant woman said, as if she had something to prove.
Shen Zhichu opened the second row of drawers of the bedside table, and inside was... Shen Zhichu fell into deep thought. Li Jingshen said that the reason they couldn't have children was because of him, but Li Jingshen would take measures every time.
Although she was curious, she did not ask any further questions, for fear that she would accidentally hurt his male pride.
Chen Zhichu borrowed a needle from Mrs. Zhang... She had a hunch that Li Jingshen was hiding something from her. If he refused to tell her, she would find out for herself. Truth will come to light sooner or later, and she would always find the answer she wanted.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Jingshen sent her a text message, saying that he would work overtime and would be back late, so she didn't need to prepare his dinner.
Shen Zhichu replied concisely with a "good"
Li Jingshen was not at home, and Shen Zhichu had no mood to go for a walk after dinner. She sat on the sofa for a while to digest her food and then went back to the bedroom to wash up.
She lay in bed and waited until nine o'clock in the evening when she heard the sound of an engine outside.
The room is soundproof, and once the door is closed, you can't hear the noise downstairs no matter how loud it is.
Shen Zhichu opened the door and went downstairs. Li Jingshen had already come in. He was lying on the sofa, his face full of fatigue and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Why are you so busy lately?"
When Shen Zhichu approached, she saw that he had a cigarette in his hand, which was half smoked. Li Jingshen immediately put out the cigarette in his hand when he saw her coming, and waved the smoke floating in the air.
"It will be fine once this busy period is over. I'll take you out to relax next week. You can go wherever you want to play."
"You decide." Shen Zhichu took the cup of warm water and handed it over: "Have you eaten?"
Li Jingshen sat up straight: "I've eaten." He took the water from her hand, drank a few sips, and put it on the coffee table.
Li Jingshen raised his eyes to look at her, then patted his thigh and motioned for her to sit on his lap.
The lights in the living room were very bright. Li Jingshen was only wearing a simple shirt, which he usually dressed meticulously, even buttoning up the top button and wearing a tie.
This feeling of restraint seems to have become a habit, and it is also to prevent myself from relaxing, to maintain tension at all times, and not to miss any opportunity to breathe.
And now, I don't know where he threw his tie, and three buttons on his shirt are undone, revealing his collarbone and his chest can be vaguely seen.
This kind of Li Jingshen is more casual, lazy, and spontaneous, with a bit of temptation, which is very different from his usual serious and abstinent temperament.
Shen Zhichu hooked her arms around his neck and sat on his lap with skillful movements. Li Jingshen liked her closeness and often asked her to stick close to him and sit on his lap for him to hug her.
Li Jingshen put his arms around her slender waist and buried his chin in the crook of her neck. His movements were natural and intimate. Shen Zhichu couldn't help but ruffle his hair. As Li Jingshen breathed, she could smell the faint scent of alcohol on him.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Yeah." Li Jingshen's voice was hoarse. He knew that Shen Zhichu didn't like him drinking and smoking. Now not only did she see him smoking, but she also smelled the smell of alcohol on him.
"I'm sorry, I've been drinking." He apologized in a hoarse voice, his voice lazy and full of magnetism, reaching Shen Zhichu's ears like an electric current.
"Didn't you say you were working overtime?" Shen Zhichu questioned him.
"Yeah, I went to a social event and negotiated a few contracts." If he wanted to gain a foothold in the business world of J City and climb up step by step, J City was basically occupied by Mr. Li, and part of it was in the hands of Lu Tingchuan. It was extremely difficult for him to get some profit from them.
In the past, many people in Chengdu lined up to work with him, but now he has to be 200% focused every step of the way and cannot relax at any time.
Shen Zhichu's back was pressed against Li Jingshen's chest, and he could feel his heartbeat and the rise and fall of his breathing. "How did the contract negotiation go?"
"It's already done."
"Is this what you've been busy with lately?"
"Well, I'm not done yet."
As she got closer, Shen Zhichu could feel Li Jingshen's fatigue and haggardness even more. She felt sorry for him, but she hated herself for not being able to do anything.
"Have you got the medical report?"
"I brought it back and put it in the bedroom."
"I'll go up and take a look later."
In contrast to the smell of cigarettes and alcohol on him, Shen Zhichu exuded a light fragrance, similar to the scent of gardenia.
He was addicted to her taste, and Li Jingshen carried her upstairs to the bedroom.
Shen Zhichu showed him the examination report she had done today.
Li Jingshen browsed quickly, flipping through a few pages, and said with a relaxed expression: "I'm glad you're fine. Apart from these two things, you didn't check anything else?"
"No, the doctor said I'm in good health, but I have to take medicine on time." Shen Zhichu's face turned bitter when he talked about taking medicine.
"Then listen carefully to the doctor."
Shen Zhichu thought of the ovulation injection she had taken in the morning. It happened that these few days were also her dangerous period, the time when it was easiest to get pregnant. Shen Zhichu didn't want to miss any opportunity to grasp the truth.
After Shen Zhichu watched Li Jingshen enter the bathroom, she took off her clothes and then wrapped herself in the sheets.
Li Jingshen had no idea what Shen Zhichu was thinking. When he came out, he saw Shen Zhichu lying down with her back to him. He thought she was sleepy and wanted to sleep, so he didn't think much about it. After they got into bed, the little woman who had her back to him suddenly turned over and rolled into his arms. He took the opportunity to put his hand into her sheets and wanted to hug her, but when he touched her... his body froze.
"Chuchu?"
Shen Zhichu was obviously too embarrassed to see anyone, her face half buried in the sheets. She had never been so proactive before.
Looking at Li Jingshen's stiff expression, she curled her lips, quickly stretched her neck and kissed him on the mouth.
………. .
It was the first time that Shen Zhichu saw Li Jingshen like this. His dark pupils seemed to be filled with water. The veins on his neck were bulging with excitement and joy. The ends of his eyebrows seemed to be stained with light eyeshadow. As he breathed, his butterfly eyelashes, which were like fan shapes, trembled slightly...
……………….
………………
………………
Shen Zhichu leaned against Li Jingshen's arms, sweating all over, and was unwilling to let go of him even though he was too hot to breathe.
That night she had another nightmare, this one more vivid than any of her previous dreams. She dreamed she was sitting alone in the hospital, receiving a medical examination. The doctor took out a pile of medical reports and handed them to her, then clearly wrote four words: "You are dying."
There were a few extremely clear big words on the examination report in his hand - advanced gastric cancer.
She wanted to go home holding the examination report. She couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality for a moment. The strong sense of familiarity was no exception even in the dream, as if she had experienced it a long time ago.
She stood in the rain, her clothes were soaked by the rain. She wanted to go home but couldn't find the way home. Tears and rain mixed in her eyes, and she gradually couldn't see clearly. Finally, she stopped.
Her skin, which had caught a cold, was as pale as a piece of white paper, without a trace of blood. At this moment, a man in a white shirt appeared in front of her. He walked towards her so close to her, but she could not see his face clearly.
The man stood in front of her, shielding her from the rain: "Don't cry, little crybaby, I'll carry you home..."
His tone was so gentle and familiar that it made her burst into tears on the spot. She cried harder and harder, and before she could lean on his back, she woke up from the dream.
Shen Zhichu opened her eyes, her face was covered in tears and felt cold. She rubbed her eyes and gasped for breath. Her heart felt like it was pierced by a sharp weapon, and the pain took her a long time to recover.
For a moment, she felt that all the strength in her body was drained away, like a walking corpse. The feeling of powerlessness and emptiness spread to every corner of her body. She was anxious and her head began to hurt. She wanted to jump out of the window, as if only in this way could she see the man in her dream.
