Chapter 17 Takeaway
After returning home, Chu Yunqi also felt uncomfortable and fell asleep after a short while. He was so angry that he even forgot to take the antipyretic medicine.
The strawberries that he had eaten at Zhou Jingzhan's house finally took effect. His stomach was aching, but Chu Yunqi didn't care and forced himself to fall asleep.
It was almost four o'clock in the morning when Zhou Jingzhan was awakened by a knock on the door. He went to open the door in confusion. A young man in a yellow work suit handed him a paper bag, but Zhou Jingzhan knew very well that he had not bought anything.
The young man in yellow took out his cell phone to confirm that the house number was correct.
Zhou Jingzhan pinched the bag, which looked like a rectangular paper box. He had a hunch that it was something like medicine. "Is the contact's surname Chu?"
The young man in yellow nodded.
"Okay, it's mine."
The young man in yellow looked at him doubtfully.
Zhou Jingzhan saw that he didn't believe it, so he told him Chu Yunqi's phone number and the man left with peace of mind.
Zhou Jingzhan knocked on the door for a long time before Chu Yunqi opened it. He might have fallen asleep.
"What are you doing here?" Chu Yunqi's voice was weak, and the corners of his eyes were red.
Zhou Jingzhan raised the medicine and said, "I'm here to deliver it to you. I filled in the wrong address." He walked in very consciously and found that the lights were on. The sound of the TV also reached his ears: "Are you still awake?"
Chu Yunqi really didn't expect Zhou Jingzhan to come. He asked Zhang Fang to help, but he didn't expect that the grandson would fill in the address of Zhou Jingzhan's house.
"I was asleep and just woke up." Chu Yunqi's attitude was very cold.
As they were talking, the two of them arrived in the living room. Zhou Jingzhan saw the quilt on the sofa and was very confused: "Why are you sleeping here?"
Chu Yunqi's throat hurt and he didn't want to talk. He wanted to tear open the bag and take out the medicine, but the point of force happened to be his injured thumb, so he didn't dare to use force.
In desperation, Chu Yunqi reluctantly handed the bag to Zhou Jingzhan: "Open it."
Chu Yunqi was usually tough, and even when asking for help, there was no trace of weakness in his tone. If it were any other time, Zhou Jingzhan would not have thought too much about it, but this man was sick now, and his face looked like "I'm so pitiful."
As a patient, you should be more gentle.
So Zhou Jingzhan had a bad idea: "If you beg me, I will open it."
Chu Yunqi wanted to cry.
Before he could tell Zhou Jingzhan to get out, Zhang Fang called and Chu Yunqi answered the call with an unhappy look on his face.
Zhang Fang still felt that he had done the right thing, and asked for credit and reward in a tone: "Did Zhou Jingzhan come to see you? Wouldn't it be much easier to have him serve you than to bear it all on your own?"
"Fuck you, talk to him yourself." Chu Yunqi said this to Zhang Fang and threw the phone to Zhou Jingzhan. Zhou Jingzhan, the idiot, didn't catch it and the phone fell to the ground with a bang.
Fortunately, the phone was of good quality and remained intact after being dropped by Chu Yunqi. Zhang Fang on the other end of the phone knew what had happened without having to think about it. He didn't understand why Zhou Jingzhan was so furious because of Chu Yunqi.
Zhou Jingzhan looked down at the words "Zhang Fang" on the phone screen, then he slowly picked up the phone and put it to his ear: "It's me."
After confirming that it was Zhou Jingzhan who answered the phone, Zhang Fang dared to speak: "Brother, I worked so hard to create opportunities for you, but you didn't cherish them. How did you offend him?"
"He cut his hand and couldn't open the bag. He asked me to open it, but I didn't open it for him." After Zhou Jingzhan finished speaking, he did not forget to observe Chu Yunqi's expression.
Zhang Fang also knew how spoiled Chu Yunqi was. Zhou Jingzhan was clearly courting death by doing this. He was worried for Zhou Jingzhan: "Are you out of your mind? He's already feeling uncomfortable with a fever, and you're being stubborn instead of trying to comfort him. If you're not single, who would be? Also, I know everything about the two of you. Not only did you let him be an intern, but you also bullied him when he was sick. Sick people are very fragile, don't you understand? The most crucial point—" Zhang Fang took a breath: "It doesn't matter if you two quarrel, he will hate me later."
Zhou Jingzhan was very impressed by these words: "Okay, okay, I got it. It's okay, I'll hang up now."
"Wait a minute, why are you in such a hurry to hang up?"
"What else can I do? I'm anxious to coax him."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Jingzhan took a deep breath, put on a perfect smile, walked over and touched the side of Chu Yunqi's face: "Oh, it's so hot, do you have a thermometer?"
Chu Yunqi slapped his hand away and said coldly, "It's in the bag."
Zhou Jingzhan diligently opened the bag, took out the medicine and thermometer, then half-knelt in front of him and said earnestly: "It's not good to take medicine on an empty stomach. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
He was still cooking. Chu Yunqi was so angry after eating twice that he was almost depressed. He refused: "I don't want to eat the food you cook." This time it was his turn to be picky.
"Okay, I won't eat it." Zhou Jingzhan didn't force it anymore: "Is there any sugar and salt?"
"Ask Zhang Fang." It's no exaggeration to say that Chu Yunqi has never stepped into the kitchen since he moved in. He just stood outside the kitchen and took a look on the first day. After that, he never even got close to it, so he really didn't know.
"Why do you always look for Zhang Fang for everything?" Zhou Jingzhan scolded.
He was really aggrieved. Even though they broke up, they didn't get to the point of never speaking to each other again. Why didn't Chu Yunqi come to him when he had something to do, even though he lived across the street, but instead went to Zhang Fang instead?
Chu Yunqi ignored him.
Zhou Jingzhan could only look for it himself dejectedly, but Zhang Fang was quite reliable and had both sugar and salt, so he successfully mixed a cup of sugar and salt water.
The thermometer time was just about up, and while Zhou Jingzhan was looking at the thermometer, he also gave the water and medicine to Chu Yunqi.
Chu Yunqi almost spit out the water he had just taken. He had never imagined that the sugar and salt water he always told his patients to drink would be so unpalatable. He calmly put the cup down and asked, "How much is it?"
"It's not high, only 39 degrees." Zhou Jingzhan said sarcastically, and then without saying a word, he pulled Chu Yunqi up from the sofa: "Get up, go to the hospital."
"No, I have something to do in the morning."
"You don't want your brain anymore, do you?"
"I didn't take my medicine last night. I'll take it now. My fever will go away in a while. I'll finish my business before going to the hospital."
Zhou Jingzhan didn't force it: "Okay, then you go to sleep first. If it gets serious, I won't take care of you. What time do you go to school? I'll take you there."
"It starts at nine o'clock." Chu Yunqi said without caring about Zhou Jingzhan, pulled up the quilt and covered his head to sleep.
In fact, Zhou Jingzhan really wanted to ask him why he didn't go to the bedroom, but seeing that he was asleep, he didn't disturb him anymore. He prepared to turn off the lights and TV and go home.
As soon as one of the lights went out, Chu Yunqi was very dissatisfied: "Don't turn it off, keep them all on."
Seeing that Chu Yunqi refused to let him go, Zhou Jingzhan tactfully stopped and said, "Your house is like an ICU at night."
Although his words sounded creepy, when you think about it carefully, it is indeed true. The lights were on all night, and the sound of the TV sounded like the sound of various instruments being used.
Chu Yunqi kicked him and said, "What are you talking about? If I were in the ICU, wouldn't you cry to death?"
Zhou Jingzhan smiled but said nothing. Seeing that he had no intention of leaving and was still sitting on the sofa, Chu Yunqi forced himself to sit up and asked seriously, "Seriously, if I really go to jail one day, what will you do?"
"Me?" Zhou Jingzhan thought for a moment: "I'll wrap you twice more when I tie you up."
"..." Chu Yunqi pulled out the quilt that was pressing on him: "Hurry and get out of here."
Zhou Jingzhan consciously moved to a different place so as not to disturb his sleep. While changing the TV channel, he said, "I'll send you away in the morning and then go home."
"You don't have to go to work?"
"Please take some time off and let Ji Hong take my place."
Chu Yunqi fell asleep immediately. Within two seconds, he sat up again: "Do you still love me?"
Zhou Jingzhan didn't expect him to ask so bluntly. Just when he was about to say he didn't love her, he heard Chu Yunqi's unreasonable tantrum: "If you don't love me, I won't be able to sleep."
Forget it, he is a patient and needs rest, just comfort him, Zhou Jingzhan persuaded himself in his heart and said love.
Chu Yunqi was happy now. He gave him a big hug and replied frankly, "I love you too," and then kissed him on the ear.
After all this commotion, Chu Yunqi slept soundly, but Zhou Jingzhan couldn't sleep all night.
