Chapter 70 Salary
Zhou Jingzhan couldn't sit still. He picked out the peppercorns from the cold dish for him bit by bit and asked casually, "How long will you stay?"
"A day or two, maybe. Once I'm done with these few months, I'll have some free time. You can bear with it."
"It's okay. Career is more important." Zhou Jingzhan replied indifferently.
Chu Yunqi sensed a hint of sarcasm in his voice. He nudged Zhou Jingzhan's calf under the table and asked, "Are you unhappy?"
Zhou Jingzhan calmly moved his body and denied: "No."
After that, he took out his phone and opened the chat box with Xu Ye, and clicked on the voice message Xu Ye sent two hours ago: "Teacher Zhou, I have sent the paper to your email."
Before Zhou Jingzhan could answer, Chu Yunqi lost his temper and asked, "What's the intention of this kid sending you a message in the middle of the night?"
"Eat by yourself, and remember to wash the dishes." Zhou Jingzhan stood up and went to the study to show Xu Ye the paper.
After a while, Chu Yunqi quietly entered the study, walked to Zhou Jingzhan and leaned on the table to accompany him.
For a full minute, he stayed beside Zhou Jingzhan, who was still concentrating on reading Xu Ye's paper without looking at him. Chu Yunqi was not convinced and simply sat on Zhou Jingzhan's lap, looking at him face to face: "Stay with me for a while."
Zhou Jingzhan closed the computer and said seriously, "Take a shower and change your clothes before hugging me."
"..." Chu Yunqi loosened his arms and got off him, saying sadly, "Alright, Master, I'll come and serve you after I take a shower."
After taking a shower, Chu Yun didn’t even have time to dry his hair. He stood up and went to bed, holding Zhou Jingzhan in his arms and kissing him like a cat.
Zhou Jingzhan symbolically struggled twice, "Under the pillow..."
Chu Yunqi didn't understand what he meant, but he still obediently reached under the pillow and touched it.
"Is there any time at home?" Chu Yunqi asked deliberately.
Zhou Jingzhan was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "I just bought it."
The rumored cold and aloof ice beauty would actually take the initiative to do such a thing. Chu Yunqi did not expect that he would go from being rejected at the beginning to being proactive now, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Chu Yunqi did not answer, but moved his hand down all the way until it finally reached behind Zhou Jingzhan's waist. Although he was mentally prepared, Zhou Jingzhan still trembled when his hand really covered him. He closed his eyes and unconsciously hugged Chu Yunqi tightly.
There was no next step that Zhou Jingzhan had imagined. Chu Yunqi simply turned off the light, bit his ear and said, "Go to sleep. You bled last time, so take some time to recover."
It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. Zhou Jingzhan blinked silently and snuggled into Chu Yunqi's arms again.
"Don't sleep if you keep moving around." Chu Yunqi said in a low voice.
Zhou Jingzhan calmed down.
Chu Yun woke up early and saw that Zhou Jingzhan was still asleep, so he went to the study to help Zhou Jingzhan revise Xu Ye's paper, and then called him to get up.
Zhou Jingzhan was pulled up by him and sat on the bed, with a look of despair on his face: "I don't want to go to work."
"Don't lie in bed, get up quickly." Chu Yunqi adjusted his pillow.
Zhou Jingzhan stood on the bed, and took advantage of the situation to hook his arm around Chu Yunqi's neck and asked him to carry him on his back: "You accompany me to work."
Chu Yunqi coaxed him while tidying up the quilt: "Stop making trouble, go wash up and wake up from your nap."
"No, you carry me."
Chu Yunqi did as he was told.
After a whole meal, Zhou Jingzhan coaxed and begged Chu Yunqi into finally agreeing to accompany him to the hospital.
Before leaving, Zhou Jingzhan finally saw the diary that Chu Yunqi had thrown on the cabinet last night. His heart skipped a beat, and he froze in place, stumbling over his words: "I, I asked my mother to give it to my aunt because I wanted to help you."
Seeing his nervousness, Chu Yunqi touched his face and said, "I know. I don't blame you."
Zhou Jingzhan still felt wretched and aggrieved, looking at him pitifully: "Chu Yunqi..."
"Okay, stop acting like a spoiled brat. This is over. Don't mention it again."
It wasn't until he came over and held his hand that Zhou Jingzhan felt relieved.
On the way to work, Zhou Jingzhan filled up the tank with gas, 480.
Zhou Jingzhan took out his phone and waited until the scan was complete. He wanted to drive away, but was stopped: "Excuse me, sir, please try another card. The payment just now failed."
“…”
Chu Yunqi was playing with his mobile phone. Hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Zhou Jingzhan, and saw an unprecedented embarrassment on his face.
Thankfully, the Chu family's parents gave him a card yesterday. Zhou Jingzhan was very glad that he didn't leave it at home. He handed it over and said, "Swipe the card."
Chu Yunqi recognized the card as one given to him by his parents.
After resolving the urgent issue and getting back on the road, Chu Yunqi asked incredulously, "Is your family bankrupt?"
"No."
"Then what happened? You don't even have 500 yuan left in your card?"
Zhou Jingzhan didn't want to talk to him about such trivial matters, so he responded, "I just want to use that card."
"You tell me yourself or do you want me to check?"
As soon as he hid the secret from Chu Yunqi, he no longer dared to laugh at the joke and became much more serious.
Seeing his face darken, Zhou Jingzhan finally told the truth: "My dad stopped my card."
This shouldn't be the case. Chu Yunqi wondered in his heart: "Why?"
“…”
Zhou Jingzhan didn't want to talk, and Chu Yunqi didn't force him anymore. He lowered his head and took out a card from his wallet: "Take the flowers. The password is my birthday."
Zhou Jingzhan took it and asked, "What card is this?"
"My salary card, the money in it hasn't been touched much, it should be enough for you to spend for a while. I think there will be more money in the next two months. If it's not enough, tell me."
Zhou Jingzhan grasped the key point: "You haven't resigned yet?"
"I quit," Chu Yunqi sighed sadly, "I haven't passed yet."
The current situation is that Chu Yunqi has not recovered from his injury yet, but he takes the money every day without doing anything, and the other side refuses to let him go. You can imagine how powerful they are.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jingzhan became worried about Chu Yunqi again. He pulled his hand over and held it: "Can you come back to the hospital after you recover?"
Chu Yunqi had no idea how his hand would eventually recover, so he just coaxed Zhou Jingzhan: "Okay, wait until everything at hand is settled."
Zhou Jingzhan seemed to take it seriously and began to make plans for him: "How about I talk to my mom about the M Country Medical Center?"
"No, no," Chu Yunqi said, as nervous as an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law. "Please don't tell me about this little thing. Don't worry, I can handle it myself."
The two arrived at the hospital at the right time. When they met Chu Yunqi, everyone was very enthusiastic, with Ji Hong being the most enthusiastic. "Professor Chu! You're finally back! I missed you so much!"
Chu Yunqi smiled and said, "I just came back to take a look. I ordered a cake for you. Remember to pick it up later."
Today was a special day, the final assessment day for the interns. After handing over their shifts, several directors went to the conference room. Ding Xinye thought for a moment and then spoke again, "Jing Zhan, why don't you call Chu Yunqi over as well? Let him give you some advice."
Zhou Jingzhan was very willing, and Chu Yunqi did not hesitate to follow him. After arriving at the conference room, the two of them sat next to each other blatantly. Ding Xinye frowned and could not bear to watch.
