Chapter 252: Going to see Ye Jingchi, the car broke down halfway
The car stopped in front of a newly built hotel. Li Ying pushed open the door and got out, looking at the magnificent hotel gate. If she remembered correctly, this was the first hotel built with a foreign joint venture, and it remained very famous for many years.
There are not many cars outside the hotel, but there are quite a few bicycles.
Many celebrities still live a simple life and ride their own 28-meter bicycles to attend this rare exchange meeting.
"Come on, let's go in."
Lu Qingzhu walked beside Li Ying, occasionally giving her some inside information about the planning and construction of the hotel.
Entering the hotel lobby, it is a very spacious space that can accommodate hundreds of people.
Among the participants, some were dressed very fancy and some were dressed very simply.
The person surrounded by a group of people was Cao Xinqiao, whom Li Ying had just been talking about.
He has made achievements in the field of cardiology that no one else can match. Li Ying has read reports about him. His proposal is to use animal hearts to maintain human life. This theory was mentioned by experts in the 21st century, but there have been no successful cases. Another theory is live organ replacement.
There were indeed hospitals that could do this at the end of the 21st century, but in China, which had just entered the 1980s, anyone who could come up with such an idea was either a lunatic or a dreamer who was almost as crazy as a lunatic.
However, he had already successfully completed a case in Hong Kong City, which is why he was recognized by so many people.
Li Ying found this too terrifying.
Li Ying didn't plan to say hello to Cao Xinqiao, and followed Lu Qingzhu to meet some bigwigs in the traditional Chinese medicine community.
Li Ying listened carefully to the teachings of her predecessors and took notes on some difficult and complicated cases.
"Comrade Li Ying."
Team leader Tian, with whom Li Ying had worked before, came over to greet her, and Tian Aiai was with him.
"He is my uncle." Tian Aiai introduced, and her attitude towards Li Ying was not very good.
Li Ying greeted Team Leader Tian politely and followed Lu Qingzhu to another place.
"Are you talking about her?" Team leader Tian frowned.
"It's her. Cao Xinqiao treats her very differently. Uncle, what do you think I should do?" Tian Aiai was anxious.
"Ai Ai, I think you're overthinking it. Li Ying is a married woman with a child. How could she have anything to do with Cao Xinqiao?" Team leader Tian had been with Li Ying and felt that she was not that kind of person.
"But Cao Xinqiao wants to break off the engagement with me, uncle. Even if Li Ying has nothing wrong, Cao Xinqiao has that intention." Tian Aiai was depressed. She, an unmarried girl, was not as good as a married woman with children?
"Don't worry, I'll go talk to the two elders of the Cao family about this matter."
Tian Aiai immediately smiled and hugged her uncle's arm: "Thank you, uncle."
Li Ying benefited a lot from the entire exchange meeting.
The junior brother was going to say goodbye to his classmates, and Li Ying was waiting for him at the door.
"Li Ying."
Cao Xinqiao walked over and called Li Ying's name directly.
Li Ying frowned, not liking this kind of greeting very much.
"Comrade Cao, you should call me Comrade Li."
Cao Xinqiao's face darkened, and there was no emotion in his eyes behind his glasses.
"I thought we had a revolutionary friendship. Calling you by your name was the most intimate thing."
"Comrade Cao, the relationship between us is at most that of a patient and a doctor. You have to resolve your worries by yourself. I'm just an external force and my role is not significant." Li Ying tried to distance herself from this person.
Because every time she met him, Li Ying felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, as if she was being hollowed out.
Cao Xinqiao was very embarrassed and took a step back.
"I'm sorry, I was so full of myself."
At this time, Lu Qingzhu came back and Li Ying followed Lu Qingzhu away.
Cao Xinqiao stood at the door of the hotel and watched the two people leave.
The car started, Li Ying glanced back, feeling uneasy and uncomfortable.
"Junior Sister, you look a little uncomfortable?"
"Junior brother, I don't know why, but every time I see him, my heart feels uncomfortable." Li Ying pressed her chest, unable to describe the feeling.
And she was sure that she had no connection with Cao Xinqiao.
I really can’t figure out where that inexplicable feeling comes from?
"Then try to stay away from him as much as possible in the future." Lu Qingzhu reminded.
"Um."
A week after the exchange meeting, Cao Xinqiao did not show up, and Li Ying did not see anyone from the Cao family again.
On the weekend, Li Ying wanted to visit Ye Jingchi and prepared a lot of food and daily necessities.
"Do you want to go see dad?" Chenchen was very happy.
"Well, does Chenchen miss daddy?"
Chenchen nodded heavily.
"Then let's go find Dad together, okay?"
"Okay." Chenchen ran to bring the handicraft he made the day before yesterday: "I want to show this to Dad."
"good."
Zhou Qi originally decided to send Li Ying and her son there, but Niu Niu fell ill before departure, and Li Ying couldn't let Zhou Qi send her, so she drove herself with Chenchen.
Huzhou, where Ye Jingchi was studying, was not far from the imperial capital, only a few hours' drive away. However, because it was a strategic military academy, the area around it was deserted.
Li Ying's car stalled in a deserted place.
It's true that the more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen. What she fears most is running into trouble halfway.
Li Ying pushed open the car door and got out. She checked the condition of the car and looked up at the current situation. It really was true that there is no village in front and no shop behind.
"Mom, why don't you leave?" Chenchen leaned in front of the car window and asked.
"Chenchen, the car broke down. We might have to walk."
Only then did Li Ying miss her modern mobile phone. Without any smart devices, she had no choice but to do this. However, leaving the car here was not an option, and staying here was not a solution either.
It would be good if a passing vehicle stopped to help at this time.
But few people usually walk on this road, even on weekends.
When Li Ying was feeling worried, a jeep came from behind and stopped in front of Li Ying and her son.
The car door opened and Cao Xinqiao got out of the car.
He was dressed very formally today, in a light blue Mao suit, black pants, and cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles.
I just changed my glasses, from black frames to frameless ones.
"From a distance, it looks like you guys. Did it break down?" Cao Xinqiao glanced at the car, then looked at Chenchen in Li Ying's arms. He raised his hand and touched Chenchen's cheek: "Your son?"
"Hmm. I didn't expect to run into Comrade Cao here?"
Cao Xinqiao smiled slightly. "I was on my way to Huzhou Hospital for a consultation and just happened to run into you guys. It looks like I'll have to leave the car here."
Li Ying glanced at the car. She couldn't be too pretentious at the moment. "Can I take your car?"
"Comrade Li Ying, you're too polite. Xiaofeng, get out of the car and help fix it. I'll drive the mother and son away first." Cao Xinqiao instructed the driver.
"Okay, Doctor Cao."
Xiaofeng got off the car.
Cao Xinqiao reached out and hugged Chenchen, saying to Li Ying, "Let's go. I'll take you there first."
Chenchen hugged Li Ying tightly and didn't want to be hugged by strangers.
"I'm sorry, this child is shy."
"It doesn't matter."
Cao Xinqiao adjusted his glasses and opened the car door. "Get in."
