Chapter 29 Sickness
Qi Yanxue's cold, perfect face appeared in front of him, with his Adam's apple protruding downwards, sharp and sexy, a true male demon.
Qiao Shizhu asked in surprise, "Why is it you?"
Qi Yanxue didn't respond, his gaze passing over her to the troubled girl in the living room in the distance. "Donggua has a cold."
Realizing he was talking to her, Zhu Wendong pulled Qiao Shizhu in front of her and asked quickly, "Have you taken it to the veterinary hospital?"
The phone in Qi Yanxue's pocket kept vibrating like a time bomb. He frowned and turned it off. Without even looking up, he said, "I have something to do. Take it with you."
Qiao Shizhu's arrogance was completely replaced by surprise. Her eyes wandered between the two of them, and she narrowed them thoughtfully.
There is something wrong with this relationship.
Zhu Wendong had no idea what Qiao Shizhu was thinking. She thought it was all her fault that Donggua caught a cold, and she had to take responsibility no matter what.
She looked behind him and asked, "Where's Winter Melon?"
Qi Yanxue took a step back and called out "Donggua" behind him.
Then he saw a big white dog walking towards him, twisting its body, with drooping eyelids and a listless look on its face.
Zhu Wendong squatted down and rubbed Donggua's head, his eyes full of self-blame and guilt, and his voice was a little muffled: "Go and do what you have to do first, I'll take Donggua to the hospital now."
Qi Yanxue had no intention of refusing. His gaze lingered on her wrinkled face for a second before he left.
After the figure in the corridor disappeared, Zhu Wendong changed his shoes and prepared to go out, then he remembered Qiao Shizhu at home.
"Shizhu, I may have something to do today and can't keep you at home for dinner. Sorry."
Hearing this, Qiao Shizhu paced back and forth around her, frowning and looking a little complicated.
Zhu Wendong saw that she had something to say, "Just tell me what you want to say."
Qiao Shizhu thought for a moment before saying, "Qi Yanxue is your neighbor now? And the relationship between you is so good?"
"I forgot to tell you before."
"Are they close?" Zhu Wendong thought carefully and concluded, "That's because I have to walk his dog, and he has to keep the necklace safe for me."
Qiao Shizhu smiled meaningfully, "That's better."
Zhu Wendong didn't say anything else. There was a barely perceptible strangeness in his eyes, and he remained silent for a long time.
Seeing that she didn't want to bring up the subject, Qiao Shizhu returned to the point, "Do you need me to accompany you to the veterinary hospital?"
Zhu Wendong shook his head and said, "It's okay, I can do it myself."
Zhu Wendong walked downstairs with Qiao Shizhu, holding the dog. Qiao Shizhu had driven here by herself, and she watched her leave.
Zhu Wendong was planning to go to the garage and drive to the pet hospital when a car stopped beside him with the windows rolled down.
"Miss Zhu, President Qi asked me to take you there."
Zhu Wendong recognized that he was Qi Yanxue's driver, and finally did not refuse to get in the car with the dog. After Donggua got in the car, he curled up into a ball and looked extremely uncomfortable.
Her heart twisted into a knot, and she remembered something and asked, "Didn't you send him to the company?"
Uncle Li glanced back through the central mirror and said, "Boss Qi asked me to take you there, and then he drove away."
I guess he is worried about the condition of winter melon.
I didn't expect Qi Yanxue to be so careful and responsible when it comes to raising dogs.
Soon the car stopped at a private pet hospital. Today was a weekday, and after Zhu Wendong registered, he waited for a while before the hospital arrived.
She took Donggua into the doctor's office.
The doctor in a white coat squatted down, holding a flashlight in his hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Donggua, let me take a look."
The doctor already knew the dog's name before she even mentioned it. Zhu Wendong asked in surprise, "Are you Qi Yanxue's friend?"
Zhou Jinxiu raised his eyes, his expression a little cold, "Well, he told me in advance that Donggua was sick."
I just didn't expect it was her who came.
She had never seen this man's face before. Seeing that Donggua didn't resist, she guessed that Donggua was also familiar with him.
Zhu Wendong waited quietly by the side, a worried look on his face.
Zhou Jinxiu got up from the ground, took the dog's leash, and said calmly: "I'll take Donggua for a checkup. If you're okay, go back."
"I'll come with you." Zhu Wendong followed behind him with a firm tone.
"It's no use for you to follow me. Donggua will probably have to stay in the hospital for a few more days on IV drips." Zhou Jinxiu walked out without stopping. "I'll contact Qi Yanxue if there's anything."
"It's half my fault that Donggua is sick. I'll wait until he gets the IV before I leave."
Zhou Jinxiu looked at her deeply and asked, "Did you make her sick?"
Zhu Wendong nodded: "It got caught in the rain yesterday."
Zhou Jinxiu snorted, and as if talking to himself, he said softly, "Whoever falls into your hands will be hurt."
It was so light that it looked like a feather floating down, and no one heard it.
If he hadn't seen the corners of his lips moving, Zhu Wendong would have thought he hadn't spoken. He frowned and asked, "What did you say?"
Zhou Jinxiu remained calm and said indifferently, "It's up to you. If you want to follow me, then follow me."
After saying that, he led the dog into the laboratory and closed the door.
Zhu Wendong could only wait outside the door. The following basic examinations followed the same process. Only when Zhou Jinxiu helped Donggua hang up the IV did she feel relieved.
Zhou Jinxiu put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and walked towards her. "Okay, now you can rest assured."
"Thank you." Zhu Wendong took a breath and said slowly.
Zhou Jinxiu couldn't help but ask, "How come the winter melon is in your hand?"
Zhu Wendong didn't know where to start with this question, and finally shortened it to one sentence: "Qi Yanxue and I are neighbors. He had something to do, so I brought winter melon."
It's really interesting that the ex becomes a neighbor.
Zhou Jinxiu said calmly, "Okay, it's okay, you can go back. I'll contact Qi Yanxue if there are any problems."
Zhu Wendong stood in front of the glass cabinet looking at the winter melon, and had no intention of leaving for the time being.
Zhou Jinxiu didn't force it. After all, it was none of his business, so he turned around and went back to the consultation room.
When he went to the ward to see Donggua again in the evening, there was no one there. He checked Donggua's IV bottle, gave the nurse a few words, and went to the underground garage.
After starting the car, I called Qi Yanxue, but it took a long time for the other party to answer.
"Donggua is fine, don't worry."
The voice on the other end was a little hoarse: "Okay, got it."
Zhou Jinxiu asked, "And why is it she who brought the winter melon today? Have you been so busy lately?"
Qi Yanxue said, "I have something urgent to do today. It doesn't matter who comes, since you are the one who will treat me."
Zhou Jinxiu choked. He asked this question not because he wanted to know the answer.
"Forget it, just be sensible. Remember to pick up Donggua in a couple of days. Go ahead and get busy."
Before he could say anything else, the person on the other end decisively hung up the phone.
The light turned red, so Zhou Jinxiu stopped and called his queen.
"Mom, can't you tell me about the girl my brother went on a blind date with a few days ago?"
"Don't try to trick me. Your brother has already told me that I can't tell you for now. If you want to know, go ask him."
If he could get the information out of his brother, he wouldn't have called her.
Zhou Jinxiu remembered that his brother's marriage was arranged long ago for business interests, which required reasonable and extreme benefits. He was really curious about the family of the person who could satisfy his brother.
