Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Huo Zhongshan guards the door...
Huo Zhongshan signaled to the bodyguard at the door with his eyes, then turned and walked into the living room, and calmly sat back at his desk.
Zhu Ze was also let in by the bodyguards, but his expression was not very good.
Fang Shimian had nothing to offer as a treat, and it was not realistic for him to go out and buy some now, so he rubbed his eyes and took out two bottles of water from the box, placing one in front of each person.
Put it upright.
The living room of the rental house is not big and there are only two sofas.
There was a long horizontal sofa and a single sofa. Since Huo Zhongshan sat on the large long sofa, Zhu Ze was forced to choose the small and old single sofa.
He did not feel embarrassed about this, but just looked around calmly.
Huo Zhongshan grabbed Fang Shimian who was swaying back and forth, touched his black cotton coat which was already clumped with cotton, and said, "Go change into something thicker."
Fang Shimian came out of the bedroom, changed into a down jacket, took a look and sat down next to Huo Zhongshan. He still looked very sleepy and yawned sleepily.
After a strange silence in the living room, Zhu Ze spoke first, "Manager Yang said you had a fever. Are you feeling better now?"
Before Fang Shimian could say anything, a brown bottle of medicine appeared in his sight. The white label on the bottle was written in a foreign language. He turned his head to look at Huo Zhongshan who was opening the medicine box beside him. He heard the man say indifferently, "Take the medicine first."
Fang Shimian subconsciously picked up the bottle of medicine in front of him and drank it in one gulp. It was not bitter, but there was an indescribable strange taste that remained in his mouth, which made him feel a little disgusted. Fang Shimian frowned and wanted to go to the toilet to rinse his mouth.
Huo Zhongshan pushed the unopened bottle of mineral water in front of Fang Shimian, pressed the medical sterile paper with the tip of his index finger, and pushed several white pills of different sizes on it in front of Fang Shimian.
Fang Shimian took a few sips of water first, and after the strange taste in his throat dissipated, he reached out to pick up the medicine on the sterile paper, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it with a gulp of saliva.
When Zhu Ze saw Huo Zhongshan's attitude of not intending to hide anything, the incredible guess in his heart quickly came true. At that moment, he almost felt a strong resentment towards the two people in front of him.
He hated Huo Zhongshan for having everything but still trying to snatch away the only thing he loved, and he hated his superior family background and his smooth life.
I hate Fang Shimian for being shameless and lying, and I hate that his attention is always attracted by others.
He even hated Fang Shimian's handsome appearance. He didn't know how many coveters he had attracted since he was a child. Even people who had been separated for a few years would ask about Fang Shimian's recent situation at the party. If he looked more ordinary, he could hide him quietly and no one would find out...
That is, completely and totally his.
Fang Shimian swallowed the pill, drank a few sips of water, screwed the cap on tightly, and waited until the strange smell subsided a little before smiling at Zhu Ze, "I've recovered a long time ago. I was fine when I sent you a message. I didn't expect you to come here anyway."
Fang Shimian rubbed his face and glanced at Huo Zhongshan, "Thank you for coming all the way here."
It was just a fever, Fang Shimian didn't think it was a big deal.
He has a very strong vitality and generally does not die easily.
After hearing this, Zhu Ze suddenly let out a sigh of relief, smiled lazily, and leaned back on the sofa without saying a word.
Huo Zhongshan turned off the computer and slowly put it into the black computer bag next to him.
In the small living room, there was a worn-out sofa and traces of tape on the corners of the wooden coffee table left by the previous tenant. The two unexpected visitors in the house, dressed in suits and leather shoes, were both tall, long-legged, handsome, and upright. Only the owner of the house had a flushed face due to fever, and he was resisting sleepiness drowsily.
"Mr. Huo, if you are interested in this type of person, I have a more suitable candidate here." Zhu Ze spoke suddenly, with a confused and complicated emotion in his eyes, "My brother is inexperienced and does not fit your rules of the game."
Huo Zhongshan remained calm and said, "I follow the principle of voluntariness."
“Cheating is not voluntary. I believe you have investigated him. Although Dean Fang has stepped down, it definitely does not mean that he will allow his only son to become like people like you…” Zhu Ze concealed some unbearable adjectives, and there was real anger in his eyes.
Fang Shimian was drowsy at first, but he opened his eyes after hearing Dean Fang's words. However, the medicine he took contained sleeping pills, and his down jacket was so warm that he closed his eyes and fell asleep after struggling for a moment.
There was a dead silence in the living room.
Huo Zhongshan turned his head to glance at Fang Shimian who was sleeping soundly on the sofa. After a while, he turned around and looked at Zhu Ze with interest, "Oh? Did I say how I treat him? You treat him as your younger brother, and I treat him as my younger brother too. What's the difference between us?"
Zhu Ze gritted his teeth and said, "We are the only ones here. Mr. Huo, don't pretend to be confused. You know what I mean."
The yellow round light in the living room flickered twice briefly. The half-bottle of mineral water on the coffee table was swaying in the wind, and the projection fell on the black computer bag, creating water ripples.
Huo Zhongshan had a dull expression, and seemed to have no interest in Zhu Ze's topic. He took out a square box from his black bag, pushed it upwards with his calloused fingertips, and grabbed a cigarette and played with it in his hand.
"It is true that I have spied on you for Master Huo, but I have always reported truthfully. I have not done anything else that violates the rules over the years. You think that I am betraying you by informing on you." Zhu Ze looked at Huo Zhongshan viciously, and the gentleness between his eyebrows turned into sharp hostility.
"Even if it wasn't me who was sent by Master Huo to follow you, but someone else, I would have made the same choice as me! At that time, I could only choose to be loyal to one person, and I chose you. Then the friendship that my father risked his life to get from Master Huo would be gone, and the Zhu family would be completely finished."
Huo Zhongshan finally raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Ze.
"Moreover, after I leave, my position will exist forever. Mr. Huo must have already chosen someone to replace me. Will he help you hide the existence of Fang Shimian? Mr. Huo wants a perfect successor. All your flaws will be eliminated by him. Do you want to exchange your whim for Fang Shimian's life?"
Zhu Ze's eyes were bloodshot, and he suppressed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He just stared at Huo Zhongshan and asked angrily, "Do people like you have real feelings? Can you stop your father?"
Huo Zhongshan's face was expressionless, as if he was indifferent. He threw the cigarette in his hand into the trash can at his feet and looked at Zhu Ze calmly, "Are you done?"
Zhu Ze felt a little regretful. He was overwhelmed by jealousy and hatred and should not have said some words.
"When will you break off the engagement? When will I reconsider my relationship with him? You are not qualified to talk about him in front of me now." After saying that, Huo Zhongshan stood up leisurely and said coldly: "I will leave someone here to take care of him, so you don't have to worry about it."
Huo Zhongshan pushed open the half-open door and left. The bodyguard came in and took the computer bag. After checking that everything was correct, he also left with his employer.
The door outside was not closed, and Zhu Ze knew that there must be people guarding Huo Zhongshan.
Fang Shimian was still sleeping without knowing it, his cheeks were left with red marks from the rough and cheap sofa, his head unconsciously drooped down, he looked very docile, as if he could be easily obtained.
At this moment, he belongs to him alone.
Zhu Ze walked up to Fang Shimian, knelt on one knee on the sofa, leaned forward, and got very close to him, so close that the only sound in his ears was the young man's calm and long breathing.
He stared at Fang Shimian for a long time, watching him from such a close distance, his bones were clamoring for possession. He wanted to wake him up with a hug, express his feelings in a mixture of blood and tears, and take out his heart to show him!
After a long time, Zhu Ze lowered his head, looked devoutly, and touched Fang Shimian's ear with his forehead.
He understood his own meanness and knew that his unscrupulous actions disgusted others. He also knew the evil thoughts and misery surging beneath this gentle appearance.
But he...
The ringing of the cell phone suddenly interrupted his scattered thoughts. Zhu Ze turned it to silent mode and did not answer it. He just sat next to Fang Shimian for a while, smiled inexplicably, and whispered, "You can sleep so well."
A few minutes later, when Zhu Ze was about to carry Fang Shimian into the bedroom, Huo Zhongshan's bodyguard appeared like a ghost, expressionless, "Leave Mr. Fang to us."
Zhu Ze was so angry that his eyes turned black and a fishy-sweet taste rose in his throat.
The bodyguard carefully took off Fang Shimian's clothes and covered him with a blanket.
Zhu Ze followed behind with a sullen face, and only looked around the simple bedroom after the person left.
At this time, the phone rang again. Looking at the bodyguard who was watching him eagerly, Zhu Ze could only pick up the phone and walk out.
The two people he brought with him were stopped by bodyguards at the entrance of the corridor and were now looking at him in panic.
He turned around to look at the few people left behind by Huo Zhongshan, pressed the elevator button and left.
Fang Shimian was awakened by the smell of food.
I don’t know if it’s because I slept too much today, but Fang Shimian has been dreaming the whole time.
It was not the usual dark and panic-filled dream, but a very light and beautiful dream, of dancing grass in the winter, bright but not dazzling light, of woven vines soaking in the shallow stream, and fish with black scales slowly wagging their tails, creating ripples.
When Fang Shimian opened his eyes, he thought he was about to have a good dream about delicious food.
There was no dining table in this rental house. When Fang Shimian walked out of the bedroom, he saw two burly men in black squatting in front of a low coffee table, placing the food in the package bags one by one. From their bulging muscles and cold expressions, Fang Shimian reasonably inferred that they did not take on this job voluntarily.
"Mr. Fang, can we put the lunch here?"
Fang Shimian nodded hurriedly, staring at the various foods on the table, and whispered, "Excuse me, would you like to eat something together?"
"No." The bodyguard's expression was extremely serious. He pointed to a small medicine box on the coffee table. "Put the medicine here. Take it half an hour after the meal. A doctor will come to check it out in the evening. We are outside. If Mr. Fang needs anything, call us."
When they reached the door, the bodyguard suddenly stopped, turned around and picked up the key on the entrance cabinet, "Mr. Fang, this is your house key, remember to change it."
Fang Shimian was already sitting on the sofa at this time. Hearing this, he walked over with his eyes wide open, picked up the key chain and looked at his door. When he saw Huo Zhongshan again in the morning, he felt that he had forgotten something. It turned out to be this.
He asked where Huo Zhongshan got the key from, and it turned out that he had simply changed the lock.
Fang Shimian put down the keys, squatted beside the sofa, and began to enjoy the hot food happily.
It was a bit too much, Fang Shimian thought he could have another meal in the evening.
The doctor came after five o'clock in the afternoon. He measured Fang Shimian's temperature and did some supporting tests. After finishing, he showed the bodyguard the re-examination records and diagnosis results, then took off the stethoscope and told Fang Shimian with a smile that he no longer had a fever and could take one less dose of medicine in the evening. He just had some mild cold symptoms. He should take the medicine again tonight and have a good sleep, and there would be no problem tomorrow.
Fang Shimian nodded and asked about the cost of his outpatient consultation.
The doctor paused for a moment and said hesitantly, "Mr. Huo..., he asked us to come here... It's a good deal, you can give... 500."
“How much is the discount?”
The doctor looked away. "It's determined by the system. How can we know..."
In Fang Shimian's worldview, people in industries such as saving lives and healing the wounded are the purest and least likely to deceive others. He nodded with great faith and asked the doctor to take out the QR code and scan it.
The doctor hesitated to speak, and after a long while he took out his mobile phone, tapped the payment code, and said, "Not a penny more, it won't be credited to the account."
Fang Shimian paused, silently deleted the original amount, and sent five hundred yuan in an orderly manner.
The doctor's cell phone lit up and he hurried away with the two nurses accompanying him.
Soon, the bodyguard also left the community after receiving instructions from his employer.
It drizzled later in the evening and the temperature dropped even lower. Huo Zhongshan sat by the window, flipping through the medical records in his hand, and was silent for a long time.
