Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Beautiful
Jiang Yuxia's lips moved, and her eyes turned red before she could say anything. It seemed that Zhou Boye was the first to apologize between the two of them every time.
It was clearly his fault in this matter. It is undeniable that the first approach he always takes is to escape, which is caused by his character flaws.
But it was still Zhou Boye who came to apologize, and he felt sorry for him.
"Don't apologize." Jiang Yuxia squeezed out a little sound from his throat.
When Zhou Boye heard his voice, his body stiffened, and he let go and wanted to check on him.
Jiang Yuxia blocked it with his hands and turned his face away, not wanting Zhou Boye to see him in such a cowardly state.
The scent of Zhou Boye filled his nose. He said in a muffled voice, "Aye, you have the right to be angry. You didn't cause my injury. Don't take it all on yourself. You're not the one taking the blame."
His voice grew hoarse. "Don't feel guilty about this. Otherwise, how will I cope with myself?"
Zhou Boye didn't say anything. Even Uncle Zheng thought that his car had a GPS, so how could he not have thought of it? He was just childishly seeking a sense of existence, but he almost caused a disaster because of such a small thing.
Jiang Yuxia took a deep breath. He felt that he had to explain the previous misunderstanding to Zhou Boye. "As for me running away this morning..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Boye interrupted him, "Stop talking for now, I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup."
This sudden interruption seemed to be due to the fear that he would say something he didn't want to hear.
Jiang Yuxia paused, then looked up at Zhou Boye and said, somewhat insistently, "Aye, I want to make this matter clear first."
Zhou Boye frowned, but when he met those eyes, he finally compromised, "Okay, you talk, I listen."
If you stick your head out, you will get hurt. Some things that are supposed to happen will always happen.
Jiang Yuxia: "I didn't mean to hide from you after I woke up. Last time you said we should start over, but I don't even understand why we broke up in the first place. I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll make the same mistake again."
"I don't know how to respond to you, so I want to avoid you first and ask Brother Qin if he knows what happened back then."
"I've gotten used to running away from our relationship. I'm sorry."
Jiang Yuxia paused and said, "I'm afraid of hurting you again."
Two years ago, Jiang Yuxia never imagined that she would leave behind such a huge mess. She didn't even know where to start cleaning it up.
Zhou Boye's fingers brushed the corners of his eyes, and Jiang Yuxia shyly avoided them. He was very fair and his skin was very thin, so the slightest redness was very noticeable. For example, right now, the corners of his eyes and the tip of his nose were all red, which looked really pitiful.
Zhou Boye: "When you first opened your mouth, I was really afraid that you would mention Qin Zhixing. I was afraid that you would say that you knew Qin Zhixing longer than I did, so what's wrong with going to find him?"
He laughed as he spoke, then put his arms around Jiang Yuxia and hugged him tighter, "I didn't expect every word you said was about me."
"Jiang Yuxia, you are so cute."
Zhou Boye's surprising easy-to-please attitude made Jiang Yuxia a little at a loss. He even thought that if he hadn't come to find him, he might have been able to coax himself.
Zhou Boye's smile was not obvious in a place where Jiang Yuxia couldn't see. Compared to Jiang Yuxia's fear of hurting him again, Zhou Boye was more afraid that Jiang Yuxia had a reason to leave him back then, but he was completely unaware of it.
How hard it must be to support it alone.
He would rather Jiang Yuxia was tired of him and simply broke up with him.
He asked, "Why did you choose to return to China?"
"Because I..." Yu Xia's body froze for a moment, and he subconsciously wanted to say something to change the subject, but fortunately he reacted. He frowned slightly and said, "Because I miss you."
His tone was very serious. He had forgotten what illness he had at that time. He stayed in the hospital for a long time. The memories of Zhou Boye seemed to suddenly flood into his mind. Every day, he thought about him and all the things about him. At that time, he was really afraid that he would go crazy.
But he also clearly remembered that they had broken up. This point was particularly clear, as if there was a voice in his head that kept telling him that they had broken up, and everything else was vague.
Jiang Yuxia felt a little embarrassed, and her voice gradually became smaller. "But we broke up, and I couldn't go looking for you. I sat in the cafe across from your company, thinking I would see you, but I never saw you once."
Later he found out that Zhou Boye had been abroad during those days, so he never met him.
Zhou Boye: "How many days did you wait there?"
Jiang Yuxia muttered, "Seven days."
“You really are…”
"Later, the coffee shop owner knew me, and he would..."
Such directness made Zhou Boye completely unable to cope. He lowered his head and pressed his lips against Jiang Yuxia's, swallowing the words he had not yet finished.
The kiss was gentle and charming, but one didn't know whose breathing changed first. The heavy breathing set the rhythm, and the chasing of lips and tongues, both of them were desperately trying to absorb it, as if they wanted to vent all the love they had for the past two years.
Until there was a knock on the door, it was Lin Yan, "You two inside, the mess has been almost cleaned up, the person has been sent to the hospital, I'm going home to catch up on some sleep."
Just when they thought he had left, Lin Yan came back and said, "Zhou Boye, if you call me so early again and ask me to come see you two, we'll break up!"
The tone was so resolute that people couldn't help but believe it.
Jiang Yuxia was breathing heavily, his forehead resting on Zhou Boye's chest. His face turned red when he heard Lin Yan's words.
Zhou Boye stroked the back of his neck with his hand, his lips slowly curled up and he smiled, and the sky cleared up after the rain.
The two of them didn't stay long. Zhou Boye drank some wine and asked the driver to pick them up.
On the way to the hospital, Jiang Yuxia took out the jade from his pocket, held it in his palm and handed it to Zhou Boye, "I just brought it back today."
Zhou Boye took a look and said with a hint of disgust: "It's already damaged after just getting it back. I hope it's safe. Let's wear another one and throw this one away."
As he made a move to take the jade pendant, Jiang Yuxia quickly took it back, staring at Zhou Boye vigilantly with a pair of cat eyes.
Zhou Boye looked at him like that, chuckled a few times, and ruffled his hair with his hand, "Just kidding."
He put the jade pendant on Jiang Yuxia's neck and picked at the thin string with his fingers. "This string has faded. I'll change the chain for you tomorrow. How about turning it into a bracelet?"
Jiang Yuxia thought that it was indeed inconvenient to wear a necklace during filming, but a bracelet would be fine if she wore long sleeves, so she agreed and said seriously, "Okay, but the chain shouldn't be too thick. It won't look good if it's too thick."
Zhou Boye suddenly lowered his head and pecked him lightly on the lips.
Jiang Yuxia's eyes widened a little, with a hint of warmth still on his lips. Zhou Boye had a casual smile on his lips, and his peach blossom eyes were very sparkling, very similar to the one he had first met in the bar.
Zhou Boye is particularly charming after he matures.
Jiang Yuxia's face turned red instantly. He was a little overwhelmed by Zhou Boye's behavior and quickly looked away to the window.
The car was driving smoothly. Zhou Boye put his arm around him and let him lean on his shoulder. "Do you want to take a nap?"
Jiang Yuxia wasn't actually sleepy, but he closed his eyes anyway. After a while, he felt an extra piece of clothing on his body. He sniffed and it was Zhou Boye's scent. He gradually began to feel sleepy, and his consciousness slowly faded. Half asleep and half awake, he wondered, had he reconciled with Zhou Boye?
But it seemed like both of them tacitly didn't point it out.
After attending to the private hospital for the injuries and undergoing various tests, Jiang Yuxia lay in bed. The doctor frowned slightly as he looked at the imaging and said to Zhou Boye, "Our original plan was to use conservative treatment if possible, but after so much time, the blood clots haven't actually gotten much smaller. It can be said that the results are minimal."
"You can try another medication, but if the effect remains the same, conservative treatment is not feasible and surgery may be necessary."
"If it's just surgery, the risks are extremely high."
…
After leaving the hospital, although Zhou Boye didn't behave as usual in front of Jiang Yuxia, he was still keenly aware of the hidden emotions. He asked, "Did the doctor say my condition is not good?"
Zhou Boye shook his head, not intending to hide it from him. "It's not getting better, but it's not getting worse either. The worst-case scenario is surgery."
Jiang Yuxia nodded, "As long as he doesn't get worse, that's fine."
Zhou Boye: "It will be fine."
Returning to Zhou's residence, Uncle Zheng frowned slightly when he saw the gauze on Jiang Yuxia's forehead, "How did you get hurt?"
Jiang Yuxia: "I accidentally got scraped by some debris, and it just broke my skin a little, nothing serious, but the hospital bandaged it a bit too much."
Uncle Zheng looked him up and down, and seeing that he looked okay, he felt relieved.
At this time, Jiang Yuxia's cell phone rang. It was Sun Qun.
Sun Quan: "Xia Xia, how's your packing going? Are you leaving today or tomorrow?"
Jiang Yuxia: "..." Forget about it.
"Tomorrow, it's too late today."
Sun Quan: "Okay, then I'll pick you up tomorrow morning at nine. The script is a public service announcement about protecting the environment. I'll just pick you up so you can interact with the animals. The filming will only take a day or two, so you don't need to bring too much."
Jiang Yuxia: "Okay, thank you, Brother Sun."
Because they were close, Zhou Boye probably heard it too. He frowned slightly, thinking of what the doctor said today, "Youyou, how about..."
Jiang Yuxia looked at him, a hint of excitement in her eyes, "Aye, I got the role of an animal."
Zhou Boye was unable to say anything. He originally wanted to rest at home and not take any jobs, since he could afford to support himself anyway.
But when he met his expectant eyes, he was reluctant to say it. He was afraid that Jiang Yuxia would not agree, but he was also afraid that he would really agree.
Forget it, at least the worst hasn't happened yet.
Zhou Boye: "Let's set three rules."
Jiang Yuxia: "Hmm?"
Zhou Boye: "First, don't shoot any late-night scenes. I'll cover all expenses, including the director's late pay. Second, you're not allowed to take any martial arts scenes for now. Any scenes that require strenuous exercise will be postponed. Third, I'll assign you a personal doctor who will be with the crew 24 hours a day. You are not allowed to refuse."
Jiang Yuxia blinked and agreed to everything. As long as the director had no problem with it, he would have no problem with it.
Zhou Boye: "I'll have someone contact the director."
Jiang Yuxia: "Aren't we being a little too high-profile?"
Zhou Boye raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is this high-profile? How about I show you how to be really high-profile?"
Jiang Yuxia: "No, I don't want to be on the trending search because of this."
At night, Zhou Boye stayed in the study all the time. The result of his willfulness was that he had to stay up late to work.
Wei Zhuo: "Mr. Zhou, the evidence that Lin Bingzhi leaked the company's confidential documents has been transferred to the public security organs, and all his shares have been reclaimed. However, the public security officials arrived a step too late, and he escaped. His whereabouts are currently unknown."
Zhou Boye: "Yeah."
Wei Zhuo: "Two people have asked for leave for tomorrow's shareholders' meeting."
"Li Zhaoli and Wang Yulin?"
Wei Zhuo: “Yes.”
Zhou Boye: "It's okay. This reform affects their business. Even if it were me, I wouldn't go."
Wei Zhuo hesitated for a moment. After all, he was a veteran, and he was a little confused.
Zhou Boye noticed his hesitation and said, "Just change it as you want. Don't worry too much."
Wei Zhuo: “Yes.”
It was already 3:30 in the morning when Zhou Boye finished his official business. He planned to go back to his room, take a shower, and go over the content of today's meeting before going directly to work.
After taking a shower, he turned on the light and found a bulge in the middle of the quilt. He was stunned for a moment, reached out to turn off the light, walked lighter, and lit a night light at the head of the bed.
Jiang Yuxia was breathing evenly, her red lips were slightly pursed, her brows were calm, and she had fallen asleep.
She had clearly regained consciousness, yet she still ran to his room. Did she really think he was Liu Xiahui?
Jiang Yuxia was so well-behaved after falling asleep that Zhou Boye touched his lips with his fingers and leaned over to give him a kiss on the face.
Sensing Zhou Boye's presence, Jiang Yuxia naturally leaned towards him, rubbed her head on his hand, reached out to hold his hand and fell asleep again.
Zhou Boye's eyebrows curved slightly. It was hard to describe his mood at this moment. It seemed that the whole world was beautiful.
