With a bang, the door was pushed open and my mother walked in: "Xiao Ze, you should go home and rest first. I'm here... Yeah, you finally woke up."
Xiao Mingyang smiled at his mother: "What do you mean by finally? I slept for a long time?"
"A whole day, not long?" Yan Qi saw his red face and went outside to call a doctor.
"I'm fine!" Xiao Mingyang got up and was about to get out of bed, but Li Xiangze pushed him back.
Although it was a warm touch, Xiao Mingyang felt like he was electrocuted. An electric current spread from the place where he was touched to every part of his body.
He suddenly lost his temper and lay obediently in bed, looking at his wife and saying timidly: "I, I'm really fine..."
Li Xiangze raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously not believing it.
He nodded, tucked the quilt in for the other person, and sat back in his chair. His cell phone rang, and he kept tapping it, probably replying to a message.
The doctor came in, took Xiao Mingyang's temperature, and did some simple tests. There was nothing wrong.
Li Xiangze stood up and said, "I've resolved my mother's issue. I'm leaving now."
"Okay, drive slowly and send me a message when you get home!" Mom smiled and waved goodbye to him.
Xiao Mingyang's eyes were filled with reluctance: "Just leave..."
No, he just woke up...
Yan Qi said: "My dear Xiaoze has been with you since you were admitted to the hospital, and he hasn't even closed his eyes."
"Well, then you should go back and have some rest," Xiao Mingyang said, looking at Li Xiangze's back. "Bye bye!"
Li Xiangze turned around and nodded slightly at them: "Let's go."
The ward door was gently closed.
Yan Qi sat down in the spot where Li Xiangze had just sat. She watched her son staring at the door for a long time with interest, then burst out laughing: "What? Have you fallen in love with me?"
Xiao Mingyang's pupils trembled: "How did you know that?!"
"Don't I know you?" Mom said with a meaningful smile, "Your eyes are so sticky that they can even make me drool."
Xiao Mingyang was tongue-tied: "I, I call that Zhenchi!"
"That one reads sincerely," Yan Qi mocked, "With your IQ, you'd be helpless even if you opened the screen 800 times in front of someone."
"Mom——" Xiao Mingyang roared and buried his head in the quilt.
Yan Qi pulled him out from under the quilt: "You are as shameless as your father."
It's because you are too thick, okay?
"How can you chase someone when you're so thin-skinned?"
Xiao Mingyang blinked blankly: "Chasing... what?"
"Silly boy," his mother tapped his forehead, "Go after your girlfriend. Don't you like her? If you like her, then go after her! Otherwise, you're just waiting for someone else to chase you? You're just a common man."
"I, chase..." Xiao Mingyang's face flushed, and he finally blurted out: "I don't believe it! Are you so unsure about your and your dad's genes? I'm so handsome!"
"Is this the point I'm making?" Yan Qi twitched her lips. "How did you get an 80 in Chinese in the final exam?"
"Not 80, 76."
"Are you quite proud?"
"At least I passed out of 100 points!"
The corner of Yan Qi's eye twitched: "I gave birth to a pig..."
"From a genetic point of view..."
Yan Qi muted the audio manually: "Shut up. Someone who eats two meals in one afternoon doesn't deserve to say he's not a pig."
Xiao Mingyang: "..."
Good, good, you are worthy of being my mother.
Mom took out her phone and took a photo with him. "I'm telling your dad I'm safe. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have skipped all the meetings at your grandfather's company and his own and driven straight over here."
In Lao Xiao's eyes, family has always been more important than the company. He once had a glorious record of skipping a business trip and rushing back when he heard the sound of breaking glass while talking on the phone with his mother.
My mother lay down on the bed next to me and said, "It's getting late now, go back to sleep."
Xiao Mingyang lay down for a while, then said in a normal voice, "Momo, your client is asking for money again."
No one replied.
Good, it looks like he's fast asleep.
He took out his cell phone and opened WeChat.
Xiao Dayang changed his profile picture to a sunny doll under the sun.
[The Most Handsome Guy in the Universe] Mission successfully completed, is there anything else important?
【Yang】On January 13, 2421, my father went to the suburbs to see the new factory.
[The Most Handsome Guy in the Universe] Why are you still awake so late?
[Yang] My wife was on a business trip and was not supposed to be back until next week, but she came back early today to give me a surprise. I was so excited that I couldn't control myself. My wife just went to bed and I just finished taking a cold shower.
[The most handsome guy in the universe]...
He just asked some questions.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] Please finish what you just said.
There is constant input over there.
【Positive】.
【Yang】Fuck, I can’t pronounce it.
[Yang] It was the car he usually drove. Someone had tampered with it, causing it to lose control halfway, rush down the hillside, and his father died.
Xiao Mingyang's pupils dilated, and he repeatedly checked the last four words to make sure he had read them correctly, and typed with trembling fingers.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] Are you sure you didn’t make a typo?
【Yang】I’m sure.
Xiao Mingyang's heart finally settled down.
All the little moments I spent with my dad came to my mind.
He doesn't know what his father is like outside, but at home, his father is very obedient to his mother, sometimes strict and sometimes gentle to him. He is undoubtedly a good father. He is filial to his grandfather and is even more so to his uncle and younger uncle.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] Who is the one who made the move?
【Yang】I can’t send it out.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] He is not a family member.
【Yang】means family members.
Xiao Mingyang's hand holding the phone trembled, and his heart skipped a beat.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] Is he the uncle or the younger uncle?
The input on the other side can't be sent out for a long time.
Xiao Mingyang had a flash of inspiration.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] 1 is the uncle, 2 is the younger uncle.
There is input going on again.
[Yang] I tried Arabic numerals, English, Traditional Chinese, French, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, oracle bone script, as long as it is a language that still exists or has been explored, I tried them all, but it's useless.
Xiao Mingyang gritted his teeth.
[The most handsome guy in the universe] is calling!
He tiptoed into the bathroom and dialed the phone.
They thought of various methods.
Make a voice call directly.
As a result, the important parts turned into electronic music and were completely inaudible.
I tried video call again, and at least the lip movements were okay.
The answer is no.
Every time when the key points are mentioned, the picture starts to become blurred and the sound turns into electronic music again.
Then came the red envelopes.
As a result, all the words written turned into a "□".
They started trying to send it one word at a time.
The result is that not a single word can be pronounced.
Try homophony again.
Still can't send it out.
Pinyin.
Still can't send it out.
Xiao Mingyang was helpless and furious.
Xiao Mingyang had to give up.
[Yang] There is still a long time before the accident. Before that, there is a short holiday combining Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. My uncle and my younger uncle will come at that time. We can use those days to do a thorough investigation.
[The Most Handsome Guy in the Universe] There are no clues at all, how can I check?
[Yang] Motivation: See who has the strongest motivation. Also, eyesight, personality, movements, and behavioral habits: when someone feels guilty, some things change. Think about this carefully.
Xiao Mingyang seemed to understand but not quite.
But I still copied and pasted this sentence into the calendar on my phone, and added a string of red exclamation marks on January 13th.
There was a knock on the bathroom door. My mother woke up without knowing when. She yawned and shouted, "Xiao Mingyang, if you keep pulling, your anus will prolapse!"
Sometimes he really admires his mother's courage.
He pushed open the door with a dark face and returned to bed.
I heard my mother yawn and mutter, "Why don't you flush the toilet?"
Xiao Mingyang: "..."
＊
The next morning.
When Xiao Mingyang opened his eyes, he saw his wife's stunning profile.
A sudden inspiration woke him up.
Xiaoxin and Xiaoyang, who had just woken up, were quite dishonest. One wanted to rush out of the chest cavity, and the other stood at attention.
Xiao Mingyang blushed again.
Li Xiangze noticed that he was awake and his flushed face, so he took out the thermometer again.
"I don't have a fever," Xiao Mingyang said with a bit of embarrassment, "it's just that the quilt is a little hot...haha..."
Li Xiangze didn't believe his nonsense and raised his eyebrows: "You want me to help you?"
Xiao Xiaoyang stood up straighter.
The smile on Xiao Mingyang's face suddenly froze.
No, ah, is it so open?
He stumbled and asked, "Help, what?"
Li Xiangze: "Take your temperature."
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows in confusion.
How else can I help?
"Oh..." Xiao Mingyang's forehead was sweating from the pain, but he had to force a smile. He took the thermometer obediently and placed it under his armpit: "No, no..."
Li Xiangze glanced at the time, picked up the insulated lunch box on the bedside and unscrewed it. The fragrance drifted into Xiao Mingyang's nostrils.
He has a big appetite, and since he hadn't eaten last night, he's now starving like a ghost.
He looked at his wife's profile and swallowed, then looked at the lunch box and swallowed again.
"Your mother went out for breakfast," Li Xiangze took out a spoon, shook the bed, scooped a spoonful of porridge from the thermal lunch box, and held it to Xiao Mingyang's mouth, "It's a little hot."
Xiao Mingyang was flattered: "I, I'm fine now, but I can do it myself..."
Li Xiangze scanned Xiao Mingyang from head to toe.
Someone secretly crossed their legs.
It’s a pity that the heartbeat cannot be hidden.
He looked at his wife nervously, and even breathed much more lightly on purpose.
The spoon was placed into the bowl with a crisp sound. Li Xiangze handed him the bowl and said, "Slow down, it's hot."
Xiao Mingyang didn't dare to look at him and just drank his porridge in silence.
It has a smooth texture and is cooked very tender. It is filled with some chopped vegetables and minced meat, and the saltiness is just right.
After drinking a whole bowl, I can’t say I’m full, I can only say that I’m full.
Still very hungry.
He didn't say.
He can't let his wife think he is a pig.
Li Xiangze delivered the following lunch and dinner, and Aunt Xu also came for the last meal.
"I've been busy tidying up the store all day today, and only now do I have time to come and say thank you to you in person." Aunt Xu said as she was about to bow.
Xiao Mingyang quickly supported him.
He couldn't stand his mother-in-law's bow.
Now he has fully recovered, and the smile on his face is as bright as a rotten persimmon flower: "It's just a small favor, there's no need to be so grand. Besides, didn't Aze send me so many meals?"
Yan Qi, who was standing aside, was also busy: "Yeah, didn't Sister Xu say that Xiaoze will also go to the Normal University this semester? From now on, the two children will be friends, no need to be so polite."
When Aunt Xu heard the word "friend", her expression went blank for a moment, then a relieved smile appeared on her face: "Hello, friend..."
"Xiao Mingyang," Mom ordered, "Add Xiaoze on WeChat and help him out at school, okay?"
Xiao Mingyang stood at attention and saluted, saying, "I guarantee to complete the task!" Then he immediately took out his WeChat QR code.
I thought to myself, "As expected, old ginger is still the best. What I longed for so long but could never achieve was just a word from her."
