Two faces
Kong Lingyu had thought about taking Fang Huai to the hospital, but Fang Huai was very resistant to hospitals, and repeatedly mentioning the topic would make him lose control of his emotions.
When Kong Lingyu contacted the family doctor to come to his house, Fang Huai would lock himself in the room and refused to come out no matter how he coaxed him, let alone go to the hospital.
"Kong Lingyu, I'll be fine after a while."
"I'm just feeling a little off, I don't need a doctor."
Fang Huai's low voice came from the room, "I am also a doctor...I used to be."
Kong Lingyu, who was locked outside, held the door with a frown on his face. He could only tell the doctor about Fang Huai's emotional state and behavior, record Fang Huai's condition as instructed by the doctor, and provide psychological counseling to Fang Huai according to the plan they had prepared.
Pay attention to Fang Huai's emotional changes at any time and keep a close eye on him.
While eating, Fang Huai suddenly stopped moving. He stared blankly at the food in front of him with his eyes drooping. His breathing became increasingly rapid and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
Kong Lingyu was busy in the kitchen. Fang Huai took a deep breath, gripped the spoon tightly, and hurriedly grabbed the tissue beside her to wipe away the tears that were flowing uncontrollably.
"fine."
He tried hard to control his emotions and suppress them, but the more he suppressed them, the tighter he became, and his chest became more and more stuffy, and the things in front of him began to shake.
The spoon fell to the ground, and Fang Huai's hand slammed heavily on the dining table. The water cup beside him was swept down and fell on the fluffy carpet due to the violent movement. The water cup hit the thick blanket and made a dull sound.
“Boom.”
Fang Huai felt his head was heavy and his eyes were foggy. He shook his head, but the intense dizziness made him lose his balance and fall to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Kong Lingyu ran out immediately when he heard the noise outside. Seeing Fang Huai squatting on the ground with a painful expression, he quickly hugged him in his arms to comfort him and called a doctor.
"Maimai, where does it hurt?"
Fang Huai covered his head and whispered, "It hurts, it hurts."
Kong Lingyu put his hand on Fang Huai's forehead and found that his body temperature was surprisingly hot.
How could he suddenly have a fever? Kong Lingyu hugged Fang Huai, his eyes full of surprise. Fang Huai was fine this morning.
Without giving it much thought, he carried Fang Huai to the bed, informed the doctor of Fang Huai's condition over the phone, and found a mild medicine for Fang Huai to drink. The sudden onset of fever caught Kong Lingyu off guard. He sat by the window, nervously watching the family doctor who had hurried over to examine Fang Huai.
"It's just a common fever, no need to worry."
Seeing his brother so nervous, Tan Cheng couldn't bear it any longer. He patted the man on the shoulder and said, "The professional doctors said it's okay. You don't have to worry too much."
The doctor glanced helplessly at the two people beside him and said, "Mr. Kong, the patient is weak. With the recent cooler weather, he must keep warm. He also looks a bit malnourished. He should eat more nutritious food and try not to order takeout."
"The patient has developed somatic symptoms of depression and anxiety due to excessive emotional stress. This needs to be treated slowly. Fortunately, it is not serious. It is recommended to start with the patient's lifestyle. Direct use of medication is not recommended for relief." The doctor gave Fang Huai a fever-reducing injection and looked through the previous communication records with Kong Lingyu with a serious expression.
He glanced at the sleeping Fang Huai, frowned, and instructed, "Give the patient some nutritious food, preferably something that can stimulate his appetite. His health condition clearly doesn't meet the standards; he's too thin."
Kong Lingyu was completely stunned after hearing that Fang Huai was malnourished. His sharp eyes were full of shock and annoyance, and his expression was complicated. His face turned black and purple. Tan Cheng standing next to him was almost laughing madly, but Kong Lingyu glanced at him lightly and decisively covered his mouth.
"I've been cooking a lot lately, so how could I be malnourished? I even bought a recipe."
Kong Lingyu still couldn't believe the truth. Tan Cheng laughed out loud, "Kong Lingyu, you are amazing. You have made a healthy person malnourished."
Even through his mask, I could sense the doctor's silence. He said cautiously, "Then order takeout from now on, or have the restaurant deliver it to your door."
"By the way, you must always pay attention to the patient's mood recently. It's best to follow his wishes and take him out for a walk more often... This will help to cheer him up. You must also pay attention to his diet..." The doctor explained various matters professionally, and Kong Lingyu immediately wrote them down.
But when talking about diet, his face twitched unnaturally.
After seeing off Tan Cheng and the doctor, Kong Lingyu sat in front of the bed and carefully read the doctor's instructions. He reached out and lovingly touched Fang Huai's thin face. He had really lost a lot of weight.
"Is what I made really so bad?" Kong Lingyu murmured after a long while, "You didn't even tell me that I suffered so much."
"Oh—I'm sorry."
"Maimai."
Fang Huai slowly raised his heavy eyes, and as soon as he opened them he saw an enlarged face. The hazy sleepiness immediately disappeared, and he sat up suddenly.
"Maimai, you're awake."
Kong Lingyu raised his hand and touched Fang Huai's forehead naturally. His body temperature returned to normal, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered a glass of warm water to Fang Huai.
"Drink some water."
Fang Huai saw the dark circles under Kong Lingyu's eyes, and felt guilty. He took the water awkwardly and said, "Thank you."
"It's okay." Kong Lingyu smiled, brushed the loose hair on Fang Huai's forehead to the side, and brought a bowl of fragrant porridge with a smile as if by magic, "Want to try it?"
Fang Huai put down the water cup. His dry throat felt much better after being moistened by the warm water, but he still looked listless.
He looked up at Kong Lingyu suspiciously: "Did you do this?"
Kong Lingyu smiled but said nothing. Fang Huai took the porridge and drank a few mouthfuls slowly. "That's enough."
Fang Huai leaned against the pillow, tilted his head slightly and stared at Kong Lingyu, "What do you want to say?"
Kong Lingyu's thoughts were seen through. He curled his lips and chuckled, "You really can't hide anything from Mai Mai."
He keenly noticed that Fang Huai's eyebrows were slightly raised, which made his pale face more lively.
"I'm sorry, Mai Mai."
Fang Huai grabbed the quilt, suspecting he had misheard: "What?"
Kong Lingyu lowered his head. "I didn't expect that the food I made was so unpalatable and even caused you to be malnourished."
His eyebrows were lowered, his usual flamboyant demeanor gone. Fang Huai felt strangely uncomfortable. He turned his head nonchalantly to look out the window and said in a nonchalant tone, "They're all the same. I can't taste the difference."
"You...don't think like that."
Fang Huai comforted him stiffly, and Kong Lingyu immediately raised his head, like a wolf cub who was not punished but comforted after making a mistake. He looked at Fang Huai with joy. If he had a tail behind him, it would have turned into a propeller long ago.
Fang Huai met his gaze, then awkwardly looked away and turned his head away from Kong Lingyu.
Ding Dong——
The awkward atmosphere between the two was broken by the doorbell.
"Brother, are you home?"
Fang Henian stood at the door and shouted upstairs. Kong Lingyu recognized who it was and his face turned unhappy. However, for Fang Huai's sake, he still managed a smile and said, "I'll go check it out first. You can rest for a while."
Fang Huai curled his lips. He really didn't want to see Fang Henan now.
Kong Lingyu stood in front of him, and he nodded and agreed: "Okay."
"Brother." Fang Henian shouted at the top of his lungs downstairs, but still no one opened the door. Just as he was about to continue shouting, the door was opened.
"What's up?"
The man's low voice sounded as the door opened, and a cold and sharp face appeared in front of Fang Henan, and his sharp eyes fell on the dusty Fang Henan.
Kong Lingyu's eyes were like knives, chilling Fang Henian's heart. He clenched his fists nervously, stiffened his neck, and asked, "Why you?"
"Why can't it be me?" The man leaned against the door impatiently, holding the door tightly with one hand to block Fang Henian outside the door. His other free hand held the empty mint candy jar, which he tossed without stopping.
The man looked down at Fang Henian, completely ignoring him. His face was nonchalant, his eyes cold and indifferent. His black shirt sleeves were rolled up at the elbows, his narrow eyes filled with contempt and indifference, and his aggressive face was full of impatience.
This is the real Kong Lingyu, the Kong Lingyu who is cold to the core.
Fang Henian was glanced at indifferently by Kong Lingyu, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to his whole body, making him feel uneasy as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
"I'm here to find my brother." Fang Henan took a step forward bravely.
"laugh."
Kong Lingyu stood up and walked down the stairs, forcing Fang Henian down the stairs, "Your brother?"
"Fang Henian, didn't the Fang family disown him?"
"How did you know? My brother told you?" Fang Henian stepped back repeatedly. Kong Lingyu's undisguised ridicule and contempt made him unable to raise his head. He clenched his fists and said, "This is our family matter. It has nothing to do with outsiders. I'm going to see him now."
"Even if you are my boss, you have no right to ask me to leave."
Kong Lingyu clicked his tongue and was about to carry this guy away.
"Let him in."
"Kong Lingyu." Fang Huai stood on the balcony, looking at the two people downstairs who were on edge, and said helplessly, "Come in and talk."
"Brother!" Fang Henian quickly pushed away Kong Lingyu who was blocking his way and rushed straight into the house. Kong Lingyu stood outside looking at Fang Huai on the balcony. He pressed his cheek with his tongue and the mint candy jar creaked when squeezed, but facing Fang Huai's gentle gaze, he could only compromise helplessly.
He walked upstairs quickly, found a coat and put it on Fang Huai, and found a pair of plush slippers for Fang Huai to change into in front of Fang Henan.
He kept muttering, "It's cold, you can't wear so little. You must keep warm when your fever goes down."
Fang Henian's eyes flickered between the two of them. Why does this guy have two different faces?!
"I understand. You go ahead and do your work."
Fang Huai put on his slippers awkwardly and sent Kong Lingyu away. "Tan Cheng just called you. There's something at your company that needs your attention. Go quickly."
Kong Lingyu had no choice but to whisper a few words to Fang Huai before going upstairs.
Before going upstairs, he turned around and gave Fang Henian a sinister smile, raised his chin, and said silently: I'm always here, just be quiet.
Fang Henan shuddered, quickly looked away and took a sip of water.
"Brother, how have you been lately?"
Fang Henian rubbed his hands and asked Fang Huai, who looked pale.
Fang Huai picked up the water cup in front of him, holding the hot water bottle Kong Lingyu gave him in his arms. He raised his eyes and curled his lips: "Not bad."
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was in a bad state. The conversation between the two brothers was really awkward. Fang Henan obviously realized that his question was too stupid. He took a sip of water and stopped talking.
Fang Huai also sat quietly opposite him.
"you..."
"Mom and Dad..."
Fang Huai pursed his lips: "Go ahead."
Fang Henian said guiltily: "Brother, don't bother with my parents, they didn't do it on purpose."
"I took my girlfriend back to see them some time ago, and they are no longer angry." Fang Henian didn't know what to say when facing the calm and distant Fang Huai. He said awkwardly:
"They're doing this for your own good."
