Chapter 144

Dunzi was puzzled and at a loss for words, but he did not stop taking action.

He would go to the People's Hospital to report every few days. Sometimes Lu Qing was busy and he wouldn't even see him when he went there. He would remember it the next time he saw him.

"I came over last Wednesday and asked your colleague, and he said you were busy, so he didn't call you."

At lunch time, Lu Qing was eating with his lunch box in the small garden between the two inpatient buildings of the hospital when he was caught by Dunzi.

"You remember it quite clearly."

At this moment, this person is more like a big dog wagging its tail at the hospital entrance, waiting for praise.

"Don't chase me away, just eat your food." Dunzi sat down next to her. The stone steps were short, so he had nowhere to put his long legs, so he could only hold them up with difficulty. "You said it yourself, no matter what, we are friends."

I tilted my head to look at Lu Qing, who was eating in a white coat. His black hair was tied into a low ponytail, with only a few strands of hair sticking to his cheeks. His little face was white and tender, and he was eating seriously with his eyes lowered.

Dunzi looked at the man like this for several times without realizing it, and was reluctant to move away.

Lu Qing was blocked by his words and said helplessly, "Are you not busy with business? Why do you keep going to the hospital? If you are not sick or have no business here, it is unlucky to keep going to the hospital."

She didn't remember who told her that if she kept going to the hospital even though she had nothing serious to do and was not sick, she might get sick in the future.

Maybe it was just some old story from somewhere, but that's what she thought about it.

"I have something important to do. Look, I'm injured." Dunzi lowered his head and searched his body. He finally found a wound. He spread out his hand and showed her the faint wound on his index finger. "It was cut while peeling fruit. It can be considered an injury no matter how big it is."

The corners of Lu Qing's mouth twitched. He lowered his eyes to look at the barely noticeable wound for a moment, then buried his head in eating again.

"By the way, spring is coming soon, and Shuangshuang wants to go to the park to play. When are you free? The four of us can go."

"I'm busy, you guys go ahead." Suddenly she thought of something and said, "You don't have to go either, let them go by themselves."

Don't interfere with their relationship.

"What are you busy with? I asked your colleague, and she said you'll have a day off the day after tomorrow. What do you think? Let's go the day after tomorrow. That's it." Dunzi saw that she had almost finished eating, and continued, "Don't stay at home during your day off. Go out more often. The People's Park has been renovated and many flowers have been planted. Shuangshuang really wants to go there."

Hearing this, Lu Qing's heart moved. It had been a long time since he had seen a garden full of flowers, so he just acquiesced.

"Okay, it's settled."

"You should go back soon. Don't come to the hospital for no reason." Lu Qing prepared to leave with his lunch box.

"Wait a minute, Doctor Lu, are you going to treat my wound?"

"Go back and put on a Band-Aid yourself." Lu Qing refused mercilessly.

Dunzi was grinning, with a black suit hanging on his left arm. He followed Lu Qing and muttered, "Doctor Lu, you are a doctor, a doctor who saves the dying and heals the wounded. It is said that doctors have the best hearts. How can you bear to watch me suffer from the pain of the huge wound?"

Lu Qing pursed his lips, almost being amused by the man's jokes. He turned around to look at him, and saw Dunzi standing lazily, with one of his long legs slightly bent. The white shirt he was wearing made him look handsome. He tilted his head and smiled, then gestured to his wound.

"Don't be poor."

"How am I poor?" Dunzi slowly approached Lu Qing, his shiny leather shoes making a clattering sound as they stepped on the brick floor of the hospital.

The lazy look just now disappeared. Dunzi slightly bent his waist, lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Qing, and said softly, "I am really uncomfortable. Only Doctor Lu can treat me."

The ice and snow melted, and the early spring sunshine shone down, illuminating his face and outlining the sharp lines. With the sunshine, Dunzi curled his lips and smiled charmingly.

Lu Qing avoided his gaze, her long eyelashes fluttering, sweeping down tiny specks of golden light, and a light blush crept up on her fair cheeks.

Her heart skipped a beat and her ears started to burn. The air around her suddenly became thin. She reached into the pocket of her white coat and touched it twice before she found the entrance. In a hurry to escape, she could only quickly fetch a Band-Aid, tear off the adhesive tape, and wrap it around her index finger twice.

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

Having said that, without waiting for his reaction, she turned and left.

Dunzi looked at Lu Qing's hurriedly leaving back, then lowered his head and gently stroked the Band-Aid on his hand, smiling silently.

The four of them went to People's Park on Sunday.

The People's Park on Hongxing Road on the South Third Ring Road was renovated last year. The area is larger and the colorful flowers planted there are in bloom.

Shuangshuang made arrangements early and made an appointment with a few people to come and see the flowers.

She was thinking about what she had accidentally seen happen between Brother Dunzi and Sister Qingqing before. She knew that they were still in a mess and it was not easy for her to say anything. She just observed quietly, but found that there was nothing abnormal about Sister Qingqing. Brother Dunzi stayed around her like a big yellow dog wagging its tail.

"What are you talking about!" Dunzi rubbed Shuangshuang's head. When he heard her muttering that she was a big yellow dog, he glared at her, "Cheng Keying, you are so disrespectful."

"What are you doing?" Wu Xiangchen took his hand away from his girlfriend's head and said rudely, "Stop messing up your hair."

My girlfriend showed off her hairstyle when she saw me this morning, and he liked it.

"That's right." Shuangshuang hid behind Wu Xiangchen, only sticking her head out and looking at him with her head tilted, "Brother Dunzi, I didn't mean to scold you. The big yellow dog is so cute. You looked a lot like him when you were around Sister Qingqing delivering water and food just now. Oh, Brother Chenchen, save me, save me, hold him back."

Dunzi rolled up his sleeves and pretended to deal with Shuangshuang. Wu Xiangchen stretched out his hands and cooperated.

"Hmph, have you found a backer?" Dunzi quarreled with the two of them, then turned to look at Lu Qing, and happened to be met with her bright smile, which was like peach blossoms after the ice and snow melted, pink and tender, swaying in the sun, which made his heart move.

It doesn't matter if you call me a big yellow dog.

After playing in People's Park for most of the day, the four of them had their meal and prepared to go their separate ways.

Everyone had a tacit understanding and consciously divided into two groups, saying goodbye to the two people opposite each other in pairs.

"Brother Dunzi, you have to send Sister Qingqing home safely."

"I know. You are quite worried."

"Sister Qingqing, you won't be unwilling, will you?" She always felt that these two people looked normal, but there was something wrong. "Oh, you must be willing, right? If you have no objection, then that's it. We'll leave first!"

Pulling Wu Xiangchen away, they looked back from time to time and suddenly thought, "If Sister Qingqing really gets together with Brother Dunzi and gets married in the future, it seems pretty good."

"You're thinking about them getting married now?" Wu Xiangchen was amazed at his girlfriend's imagination. Dunzi has been chasing after Lu Qing for the past three months, but he hasn't succeeded yet.

"Yeah, it's a good idea to think about it."

"Have you thought about our future?" Wu Xiangchen teased her.

Shuangshuang: “…”

Shuangshuang blushed and stopped talking.

Spring is short, and early summer is here soon. Shuang Shuang found the right opportunity to ask Lu Qing what he thought.

"Sister Qingqing, you and Brother Dunzi..." Both of them came to her side. They were alone today and did not invite anyone else. "Tell me the truth."

In fact, it is really difficult to be in her position. On one side is her brother who watched her grow up, and on the other side is her good friend and sister. She really doesn't know whether she should get involved.

"Did you see that?"

Shuangshuang nodded and asked her vaguely, "You like Brother Dunzi, right? Then why haven't you been together?"

In her opinion, if two people like each other, why don’t they be together?

Lu Qing felt that this girl was simple and innocent. She and Wu Xiangchen seemed to be a natural match. They were both determined and there were no twists and turns.

But I am different.

“I still don’t know if he really likes me.”

"How could it be!" Shuangshuang still had a say in this matter. "Sister Qingqing, I swear to you, I have known Brother Dunzi since I was born, and I watched him grow up. He never talked to any girls since he was a child, except for me. Later, when he grew up, I never saw him pursue any girl. Now he is around you every day, how can he not like you?"

Lu Qing always felt hesitant. "You don't understand. I'm worried that if I take that step, he'll regret it and it won't end well. We won't even be able to be friends anymore."

Shuangshuang and Lu Qing met and then separated. In the afternoon, Lu Qing went to work, while Shuangshuang went on a date with her boyfriend to watch a movie.

The two watched a movie and walked hand in hand by the lake. They both mentioned what they heard at noon, "Brother Dunzi is so disappointing."

"I am the one who deserves the honor, right?" Wu Xiangchen said proudly.

"Wow." Shuangshuang pouted, "Maybe I'm too easy to pursue. I regret it now. I shouldn't have agreed to you so quickly. I should have let you wait a little longer."

Wu Xiangchen smiled bitterly, "I've been waiting for a long time, longer than you think."

"Is it true?" Shuangshuang hasn't inquired about this yet. "When did you, huh~" fall in love with me?

"Figure it out for yourself."

"Tell me about it, I didn't see it."

The two held hands tightly and walked along the shore of the lake.

——

In the early 1990s, the economy was developing rapidly. Business and trade, all walks of life were booming. It was like the wind was blowing and money was everywhere.

The brave ones are forced to death, the timid ones are starved to death, and there are still many brave ones who do not follow the right path. Various car bandits and highway robbers emerge in endlessly.

The police cracked down, and even the army was dispatched to cooperate.

Two weeks ago, Wu Xiangchen went on a mission. Shuangshuang took some time out from studying to count the days. It was really a long time since they last saw him. They bit the pen and missed him a lot.

The public security issues outside have little impact on the university. Students are safe on campus, and the school has also increased security patrols near the school gate.

As for society, the impact will be much greater.

"Have you heard? There are people who are riding motorcycles to rob bags."

"So blatant? Too arrogant, isn't it?"

"Not only that, two more injured people came today. They said they were truck drivers. They were robbed while driving at night and were nearly beaten half to death."

“This is too scary.”

In the hospital, the doctors were taking over their shifts. Lu Qing put on her white coat. Today was her night shift, from 4:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. tomorrow.

Hearing colleagues chatting around him, everyone became nervous, "It's not that serious, is it? The police are not used to them."

"We can't catch them. They don't care about their lives. They are very cruel."

While his colleagues were still discussing the issue heatedly, Lu Qing somehow thought of Dunzi.

He left the capital half a month ago. Before leaving, he came to me to report his itinerary. He only talked for two minutes and said that he was going to G City for business and would find me first when he came back. Bandits are rampant now. What should he do if he encounters them on the road?

The hospital operated smoothly throughout the afternoon until around ten o'clock in the evening, when a group of fierce-looking burly guys suddenly arrived. They looked like they were not to be trifled with.

Several people were injured, and it was scary to look at.

"Hurry up, show it to our boss!"

One intern nurse was so scared that her legs were shaking. Lu Qing glanced at the crowd of more than ten people, all of whom were tall and strong with fierce faces. He tried hard to calm himself.

"Here, register first."

He then asked someone to call security to guard the place in case anything happened.

A group of people who didn't look like good people were not very polite when they were treating the patient. Fortunately, none of them looked like they wanted to cause trouble. Lu Qing calmed himself and treated the patient with the professionalism of a doctor.

"Muscle strain, need to rest..."

bang.

The wooden door of the clinic was kicked, and a group of strange, ferocious-looking people appeared at the door.

"Wang Mazi, how dare you come here? Are you looking for death?"

"You stole my goods, and you still want to run away?"

"Whoever runs away is a grandson!"

Two gangs, each with about ten people, started fighting in the hospital after a disagreement.

It was the first time that Lu Qing had seen such a scene. He was so shocked that he just felt for an opening and prepared to escape. No matter what, safety was the most important thing.

She was inside the room, the two sides started pushing and shoving each other, fists were flying, and she could hear the screams of nurses and patients around her. Suddenly, she was knocked away by a burly man in the melee and hit directly against the wall.

——

Dunzi came back from G City and selected clothes to be sold in Capital Clothing Store in the second half of this year. He now has three stores in the capital and his business is booming.

I've been away for half a month this time, and I don't know if Lu Qing misses me. He will definitely say that he doesn't miss me, but I'm not sure what he thinks in his heart.

I do want to do it, I really want to do it.

Looking at the time, if it weren't too late, he would have wanted to go there right away.

At four o'clock in the morning, Dunzi got off the train and prepared to go home to rest, so that he could dress up and look for Lu Qing again tomorrow.

"A vicious fight broke out at 10:35 last night at the People's Hospital of our city. More than 20 people were involved, and six nearby medical staff and patients were injured. The nature of the fight was vile..."

The evening news was being replayed on the TV screen at the train station. When he heard the words "People's Hospital", he stopped.

After some quick thinking, I realized that Lu Qing was on night shift yesterday.

Without thinking too much, he picked up his suitcase, took a taxi and went straight to the People's Hospital.
