Chapter 37 37. Allergies and Special Habits
"Mi Yanyan."
Shi Jingzhou knocked on the table.
So abnormal.
She felt that Shi Jingzhou was indeed a little different from before. She came back to her senses and ate the last few bites. "What couple doesn't quarrel? It's really scary to hear him suddenly call my name."
Jingzhou doesn't talk much on weekdays. If he has something to say, he will get straight to the point. No one notices the prefix. But early in the morning, he acted as serious as if he was giving a lecture to the headmaster.
He pondered for a few seconds, then asked with interest, "Calling by name is awkward. Any suggestions?"
"Huh?" Mi Yanyan hadn't meant for him to change his address. Glancing at the time, she quickly changed her clothes and headed out, throwing away her lunch box. "Whatever. Hello, Hey, or whoever."
The family called him Yanyan, the friends called him Xiaoyan, and the colleagues called him Doctor Xiaomi. When it was his turn, all he had to do was feed him.
"Have you eaten? You're going to be late for work." Mi Yanyan tapped her watch as a warm reminder that there was no nanny assigned to the new house, so she had to clean up the kitchen waste in advance.
Shi Jingzhou bit into a Sichuan peppercorn among the stir-fried vegetables. He held it in his mouth, unable to spit it out or swallow it. After two seconds of silence, he swallowed it with porridge, stood up, buttoned his cuffs, and waited at the door.
Mi Yanyan cut off the label and rummaged through a few spare clothes in the closet. The straight male aesthetic was too different from the style of the nightgown next to her. After last night, she was sure that Shi Jingzhou definitely had some special fetish.
Fortunately, it's not offensive, but just thinking about it makes me blush.
After changing shoes and standing up, Mi Yanyan's small bag was picked up by someone, shaken left and right twice, and hooked into Shi Jingzhou's hand.
"Hey, you so-and-so, this is for you." He looked straight ahead with no expression on his face.
Mi Yanyan was stunned for a moment. It would definitely be difficult to get a taxi with a little snow outside. She smiled and replied, "Okay, thank you for the trouble."
There was only one intersection left to Jianuo. Uncle Wu paused and saw that there was no response from the people behind him, so he slowed down and continued forward.
Along the way, Shi Jingzhou's phone kept vibrating. He hung up, but it kept ringing again. Mi Yanyan thought about it and decided to say a few more words.
"Today's night shift," he said as he straightened his clothes and prepared to get off the bus, "Thank you for taking care of the two little ones."
Secretary Zhou reported a lot of itineraries every day, but she never read them at all.
When the car stopped, Jing Zhou turned around and looked over, saying, "I'm on a business trip today and won't be back until next week." After saying that, he raised the screen, and Secretary Zhou's forwarded screenshot report was clearly printed on the screen, which meant he was here to hold him accountable.
"Oh, I cleared the memory yesterday and the pictures disappeared." Mi Yanyan didn't expect Secretary Zhou to punch in every day after posting. She pretended to be calm and replied, "Then be safe and have a safe trip."
It’s hard to say how many times she has seen it after it was posted for so long. Thinking about it carefully, I’m afraid she has never clicked on it.
Watching Mi Yanyan unbuckle her seat belt and hurriedly get out of the car, her mind and eyes filled with work, and hearing that her husband was going on a business trip for a week, she showed no regret at all, and even looked a little excited, Shi Jingzhou shook his head.
Business trips go smoothly and easily, but relationships go smoothly and hard.
Uncle Wu started the car again and suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
After a sudden brake that was restrained as much as possible, both of them moved forward by inertia.
Inside the floor-to-ceiling windows, Mi Yanyan had just walked to the front desk when she found herself with a bouquet of flowers, all colorful and gaudy. She was now looking down at the card inserted horizontally inside. After reading it, she exchanged a few words with the front desk colleague and then carried it into the clinic.
Uncle Wu was not blind, so he could see the same thing as the people in the back row. He took a quick glance and saw Shi Jingzhou had already withdrawn his gaze. His face was gloomy and dark. The oppressive feeling was enough to turn the red light green and quickly pass through to leave the sad place.
The glass of this pet hospital is too shiny, so replacing and cleaning it is a top priority.
Mi Yanyan sneezed twice in the clinic. She was allergic to roses, and 99 roses would be fatal. The white and pink roses were not gaudy. Xu Chang sent a card with the following message:
Happy birthday Xiaoyan.
She couldn't just throw it away at the front desk, so she had to bite the bullet and bring it back. She opened the drawer and found a box of loratadine. She quickly peeled off a piece and swallowed it with water. After half an hour, the itching subsided.
"Why don't you look energetic, Sister Yan?" Sun Siyuan passed by the clinic and saw Mi Yanyan, who had just finished the operation, holding her forehead and looking drowsy. He pushed the door open and asked.
"I've been feeling sleepy since I took the allergy medicine." She rubbed her temples vigorously a few times and yawned twice.
Sun Siyuan poured the hot water and returned to his desk. He glanced at the flowers Xu Chang had sent that morning and asked cautiously, "Sister, you're not allergic to pollen, are you?"
Logically speaking, Xu Yuan and Mi Yanyan had been classmates for so many years, so if she was allergic, she should have known and stopped giving it to them. Seeing Mi Yanyan's embarrassed expression, she exclaimed, "Then I'll take it away quickly. No wonder your eyes are swollen."
"Forget it..." Xu Chang had a meeting at the Animal Husbandry Association today. The work group notified him of a 4 o'clock meeting. Seeing that it was almost 4 o'clock, he had to return to Jianuo on time to attend. He had a good intention and threw it away, which was always embarrassing. "Wait until later. I've taken medicine, so it's okay."
"This won't do. Look in the mirror, your eyes are swollen like fish bubbles. And your mouth, oh my god, your mouth is swollen too." Sun Siyuan was dancing and talking in a high voice. Xu Chang just arrived in the corridor and heard it clearly.
The three of them looked at each other. Without saying a word, Xu Chang took the flowers and threw them out the door. He trotted back and stood in front of Mi Yanyan. "I'm sorry, Xiaoyan. I didn't expect you to be allergic to pollen."
When she was in school, boys often gave her flowers. When she thought about it carefully, firstly, the quantity was small, and secondly, every time she received a flower, she would put it in the vase at the back of the classroom. Over the years, she never mentioned it.
Xu Chang felt regretful. Mi Yanyan was the type of person who didn't like to trouble others and always endured everything on her own. It was his own fault for not thinking things through.
"Are we going to the hospital?" Xu Chang leaned closer. His eyelids were bulging with tiny red rashes, his lips were also slightly red, and there were several nail marks on his neck from scratches. "I'm so sorry, it was my fault for being careless."
This was quite awkward. It was a gift prepared for her, and it looked like it was imported and flown in. It must have taken a lot of thought. She consoled him, "Director Xu, it's really okay. He's taken allergy medicine, so it won't be serious."
Sun Siyuan caught a glimpse of Xu Chang holding a paper bag in his hand, and tactfully left to reminisce with his two old classmates.
"I didn't make it to the birthday party yesterday," Xu Chang said as he placed the paper bag on the table. The box was quite large, with a prominent logo. "I saw you liked playing with this before, so I decided to try out the new model."
Mi Yanyan straightened it out and smiled, "Director Xu, that's really thoughtful of you. I haven't played around with technology in a few years. I'll send it to you when I have time."
Xu Chang recalled the year when they went on a spring outing in college. The department wanted to shoot a promotional video. He was responsible for photography, and Mi Yanyan was responsible for aerial photography. The two of them worked all day to collect materials and then edited the film until late at night.
After staying up all night, they just caught the sunrise and stood by the B&B to share the first rays of morning light. It was indeed one of the few good memories for him and Mi Yanyan.
"I still remember..." Xu Chang was just about to suggest that they could go together when they were free, when the phone on the table vibrated a few times, and the caller ID showed that it was Mi Yanyan's mother.
She picked up the phone, her expression froze instantly, the clinic was quiet, and an anxious voice came from the other end.
"Come to the hospital quickly, grandpa is in bad condition."
Mi Yanyan hung up the phone and wanted to ask for leave, but Xu Chang had already grabbed the car keys and said, "I'll take you there."
"I have a meeting at four o'clock." She picked up her coat and put it on while saying, "I'll just take a taxi, you go ahead and do your work."
Xu Chang was waiting by the door, his tone firm: "Change the date. I'm worried about you going alone after taking the allergy medicine."
She hurriedly agreed and headed straight for Mingyuan without caring about anything else.
Arriving groggily at the hospital, the emergency room door was filled with family members. Mi Yanyan was still wearing a white coat underneath her jacket. Zhang Qiaoshu frowned displeased, glanced at the person behind him, and asked, "Who is this?"
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Xu Chang, Xiaoyan's colleague."
Zhang Qiaoshu looked at the visitor. He was well-dressed and looked decent. He was not wearing a wedding ring, but his watch was quite expensive. Unfortunately, he was still not as good as Shi Jingzhou. If he was a colleague, his job would be in jeopardy. He nodded politely and did not intend to communicate any further.
Mi Yanyan peeked through the emergency room door and turned to ask her mother, "Is Grandpa okay? When can he come out?"
Mi Wenzhong strode down the corridor, followed closely by Mi Xin'er, who was playing with her phone. She also asked lazily, "You've been in there for so long, why haven't you come out yet?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mi Wenzhong gave her a fierce look and shouted angrily, "Go to the side." She stamped her feet, glanced at Xu Chang, and retreated to the side of the safe passage without saying anything.
"Yan Yan, Grandpa's condition is not good this time. Complications have caused organ failure. This day will happen sooner or later as he gets older." Mi Wenzhong held his daughter's shoulders and realized that she was wearing loose clothes and was actually very thin.
She took a step back to avoid it, sat on a chair in the corner, curled up her body and supported her heavy head with her hands.
Of course I knew that sooner or later we would have to part ways, but I was secretly lucky that it wasn't today.
A figure loomed in front of Mi Yanyan. She looked up and saw Xu Chang half-knelt in front of her, handing her a paper cup. "Don't worry, nothing can be determined until the operation is over."
She took it with tears in her eyes and nodded heavily.
Mi Xin'er raised the corner of her mouth slightly, put away her phone, and played with her fingers out of boredom. When she looked up again, the lights in the operating room were off and the doctor told her relatives to go directly to the intensive care unit. She kicked the white wall to stand up and followed forward.
The old man had a tube inserted into his body, and he looked thin and shapeless under the oxygen mask. Mi Yanyan's mask was damp, and she suppressed her tears as she watched the person on the bed show no signs of waking up.
"Be prepared, this is just a temporary fix. If anyone in the family is close to the old man, please try calling him."
Mi Wenzhong leaned over and murmured, "Dad."
Mi Yanyan suddenly felt someone push her back. Zhang Qiaoshu crossed his arms, frowned, and gestured for her to go. The ICU was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, with only the hum of instruments and machinery emanating from every area. She walked to the head of the bed, wanting to touch but unable to. Finally, she whispered, "Grandpa."
The doctor said, "Scream louder. Don't worry about disturbing anyone in this room. Whoever wakes you up will come and thank you."
Mi Yanyan was caught off guard and burst into tears. How could anyone end up in this place? The beds lined up were occupied by elderly people with silver hair and haggard faces, but their bodies were as thin as children.
She didn't even dare to look at the person on the bed, even though she had mentally anticipated it countless times.
Xu Chang stood outside the door and heard Mi Yanyan calling "Grandpa" louder and louder from inside.
Coupled with the crying and panting, he was heartbroken.
All the family members were present, but no one remembered that today was her birthday.
The only person who holds her dearest in his heart is now old and unconscious.
In a trance, his eyes swelled up, and the regret for not making further progress earlier reached its peak in his life.
