sense of gap
Fu Xingchuan stood at the door of the ward. Xu Yangyang came out and asked him, "Why don't you go in?"
He leaned against the wall with his arms folded across his chest and glanced at her calmly, "Kicked out."
She was holding a slightly wrinkled piece of paper in her hand, and Fu Xingchuan discovered that it was the autographed photo he had thrown away yesterday.
He stopped smiling a little. Seeing his eyes shining, Xu Yangyang thought of Lin Luo's blushing face just now and probably guessed that he had done something bad.
"Everything is fine, Sui'an. Don't worry, just stay with Lin Luo."
"Thank you."
"Yeah." She left.
Fu Xingchuan tiptoed into the ward. Lin Qiao lay on the windowsill, looking outside.
He walked closer and noticed a small bird flying around. Lin Luo followed it with his eyes.
"What are you thinking about?"
"I suddenly felt that studying life sciences and promoting medical progress was a great thing."
Fu Xingchuan had originally wanted to persuade her to stop working. After all, staying in the lab every day was a high risk of cancer, and she was already sick. But seeing her expression, Fu Xingchuan agreed, "Indeed."
Lin Qi: "Are you scared?"
Fu Xingchuan: "What are you afraid of?"
Lin Qi: "Go to the operating room."
Fu Xingchuan: "Not afraid."
"I'm more afraid of being outside the operating room."
"Are you scared?" he asked.
Lin Luo met his gaze and said, "I'm not afraid either."
Fu Xingchuan propped his head up with his hands, staring at her intently. Just as he was about to approach, Lin Qiao immediately pulled away. His hand missed, and there was a look of obvious disappointment and dullness in his eyes.
"You signed a guarantee that you won't use it to blackmail me after donating your liver. After you recover from the surgery, we'll continue on our own paths. I'll pretend that what happened last night never happened. I hope you won't have any misunderstandings." Lin Luo took out the guarantee. "You still have a chance to regret it. If you don't want to, I can tear it up now."
"I won't regret it."
"I'm sorry for kissing you yesterday without your consent." He lowered his eyes and pretended to be pitiful.
Lin Luo couldn't help but complain, "You're the only one who's so timid! I think you're quite brave and would dare to do anything."
Fu Xingchuan raised his eyebrows, "You didn't push me away last night!"
"I just didn't wake up yet." Lin Luo said nonchalantly.
"You thought it was a dream!" Fu Xingchuan smiled wickedly, "Did you dream of me kissing you?"
"No!" Lin Luo raised her voice.
Realizing she was being teased, she returned to her normal tone, "Anyway, until we're discharged, you and I should keep our distance."
"Okay, okay, whatever you say." Fu Xingchuan stepped back obediently.
The nurse pushed the bed forward. Du Yunyan and Lin Dayong each held one of her hands. Xu Yangyang said softly, "Don't be afraid."
"Yeah." Lin Luo smiled.
When I entered the operating room, the bright lights were particularly dazzling.
Her consciousness was still fixed on the anesthesiologist's words, "I'm starting to administer the anesthetic."
The last moment she closed her eyes, she couldn't help but wonder if Fu Xingchuan's operation was completed?
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Luo heard the sound of the ECG monitor. Her heart was still beating and she was still alive.
She slowly opened her eyes and found herself in the ICU. The nurse saw that she was awake and came over to her and said, "The operation went smoothly."
A bird flew by outside the window, holding a sweet-scented osmanthus flower in its mouth. It is now the season when sweet-scented osmanthus flowers fall, and autumn is deep.
Lin Qi is recovering well and will be discharged tomorrow. Fu Xingchuan, already full of life, insisted on staying in the ward for a few more days to make sure he was fully recovered.
Lin Luo knew that he wanted to accompany her.
She said ungratefully, "Let's get the divorce tomorrow!"
Next to the ping-pong table in the hospital park, Fu Xingchuan shook his racket and said, "This last time, I won't let you win."
Lin Qi smiled and said, "Come on!"
Over the years, she often played with Tang Muchen and had long lost her rookie title. Although she was not as good as Fu Xingchuan, she might be able to win by a narrow margin.
Lin Qi concentrated intently, swinging her racket with unwavering concentration. Before the outcome was decided, the ball bounced on the table. A gust of wind blew, and the ball suddenly changed direction, rolling onto the ground and into a small ditch, where it was quickly swept away by the current.
"How do you calculate this?" Lin Luo asked.
The wind lifted up Fu Xingchuan's hair, and he replied, "Draw."
The next day, Lin Qiao was discharged from the hospital and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Fu Xingchuan. She thought he would escape again, but she didn't find him sitting obediently in the car.
"After many twists and turns, the divorce is finally completed." Lin Luo walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau holding the red book.
"I already gave my congratulatory speech last time, so I won't repeat it. We can have dinner together next time we meet by chance."
Fu Xingchuan said, "Okay, I'll leave first."
"Okay." Lin Luo thought Fu Xingchuan would try to keep her, but she didn't expect today to be so smooth. She breathed a sigh of relief.
The days that followed went on as usual. Lin Luo fully recovered and returned to work at the institute. She paid more attention to protection, rested more, and exercised more.
Every week, we get together with friends and have dinner at Yanghuzhu, but Fu Xingchuan is always busy and has no time to come.
"When did you get this?" Xu Yangyang asked, staring at the tattoo on Zhu Changyu's arm that was half covered by his clothes.
He generously rolled up his sleeves and showed it to everyone, "It's been a while, cool, right?"
It's a rainbow, colorful and beautiful.
Lin Qiao subconsciously looked at Xu Yangyang's expression. She put the food into her mouth, chewing it with relish. She met her gaze and said with a smile, "It's delicious."
Xu Yangyang asked Zhu Sui'an, "What has Fu Xingchuan been doing recently? Is he so busy? He doesn't even have time to have dinner with us."
"It seems there's a new drug coming to the market."
Lin Qi asked, "Is he in good health?"
"Don't worry, it's great."
"That's good."
They toasted and laughed together.
Lin Luo put the beaker back in its place, took off his white coat, walked out of the laboratory, and washed his hands.
Wu Yun suddenly rushed out and hugged her, "Our team won the award."
"Really!" Lin Luo immediately became happy.
They have been working on this project for three years and finally made a breakthrough not long ago, and applied for the Life Science Exploration Award.
"It's absolutely true, and our research group was even invited to be interviewed by a TV station," Wu Yun said happily. "I'm going to dress up nicely later, because I'm going to be on TV!"
Lin Luo didn't dress up specially, she just tied her hair into a high ponytail again and went to Nan'an TV Station with her colleagues.
This place is still the same as before, reminding Lin Luo of the scene when she came here last time.
Xu Fanqing came to pick them up, accompanied by a reckless male intern who almost spilled the coffee in his hand on Lin Luo.
"sorry."
"It's okay, it was almost there." Lin Luo said lightly, and the intern scratched his head.
The interview went smoothly, and everyone had dinner together. Lin Mei's earring fell off, and she bent down to look for it. The intern had found it first and handed it to her.
"Thanks."
"It's just a piece of cake."
Lin Luo walked out side by side with him and bumped into Xu Fanqing's girlfriend, who was leading Fu Xingchuan.
Xu Fanqing noticed and walked over to them, asking his girlfriend, "Is the show over?"
"Yeah." The TV station's new program interviews entrepreneurs.
“You guys go to the dinner party too.”
"right."
"How about we get a discount for more people?" Xu Fanqing asked selfishly.
The hostess immediately agreed, "Okay!"
Lin Luo glanced at Fu Xingchuan, and his gaze happened to sweep over her. Lin Luo nodded slightly.
The two groups went to the restaurant together. Lin Luo drove the car. The intern said he was carsick, so Lin Luo let him sit in the passenger seat.
He was really carsick. After only a short journey, he vomited as soon as he got off the car. Lin Luo looked for tissues in her bag but couldn't find any. Fu Xingchuan suddenly appeared and handed her a pack of tissues.
"Thanks."
He didn't stop and stepped in first.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, you and Mr. Fu seem to be quite familiar with each other. What's your relationship?" the intern asked curiously.
The phone rang. Fu Xingchuan stopped and was about to turn around to answer it when he saw Lin Luo looking at him.
It was his second uncle calling, asking him to go on a blind date. He hung up, and seeing that Lin Qiao was taking a long time to answer, he said for her, "It's probably the kind of relationship where a part of me is inside her."
"Ah! So you are pregnant." The intern lowered her head. Lin Luo was about to explain when she felt nauseous and ran to the toilet to vomit.
"Fu Xingchuan!" Lin Luo frowned.
He said nonchalantly, "Am I wrong? I'm just stating the facts."
really.
Why do I feel alienated?
Lin Luo planned to ask about his health.
Fu Xingchuan said, "Stop joking."
"I'm going to explain to my ambiguous partner."
It seemed like he had really let it go. “No need.”
Fu Xingchuan nodded and walked inside.
At the dinner table, Fu Xingchuan sat together with Deputy Director An and the director of the TV station. It was a dinner party, but it was also a semi-social event, but he was at ease and calm.
Deputy Director An introduced the members of the research team to General Manager Fu. Fu Xingchuan shook hands with them one by one. When he reached Lin Qiao, everyone's eyes turned to her, but Fu Xingchuan did not treat her differently. He shook her hand briefly and then let go.
Lin Luo's eyes fell on her hands and she only came back to her senses after the dinner was over.
"Xiaoxiao, my mother is here to pick me up, so I'm leaving first." Wu Yun said to her.
"good."
Everyone else also went out. Her earring fell off again, and she fell behind while looking for it. Everyone had left, and when Lin Luo went downstairs she found it was raining.
She didn't bring an umbrella and didn't want to get wet in the rain, so she sighed unconsciously.
I wanted to wait for the rain to stop, but suddenly I found a black umbrella leaning against a pillar with a sticky note on it. Was it left by Fu Xingchuan for her?
She walked closer and read the words clearly: [Sister Xiaoxiao, don't get wet in the rain. Go home and be careful!]
It was not Fu Xingchuan's handwriting. She lowered her eyes. The wind made the raindrops deviate from the vertical direction and fell on her hands. The wet and sticky feeling spread.
She opened her umbrella, walked into the rain, and her figure faded away.
The long rainy season ended. Lin Luo folded her umbrella and put it in her bag. She glanced back and saw Fu Xingchuan passing by. He was talking to a group of people and didn't notice her.
This is the sixth time I've run into him by chance this month. Nan'an City is pretty big, how can we run into him so often?
At today's academic forum, Lin Qi gave a report on stage, and Fu Xingchuan sat in the guest seats below the stage and listened.
Lin Luo met her gaze and smiled faintly, then immediately dodged away.
After it was over, Lin Luo felt more and more that something was wrong. Did he deliberately create an encounter with her?
She went to find Fu Xingchuan, who was standing with several bigwigs from leading domestic pharmaceutical companies. He was wearing a neat suit, with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a wine glass, taking a sip of champagne.
"Mr. Fu, I heard that your second uncle is still worried about your marriage! I..."
Fu Xingchuan put down his wine glass, pursed his lips, and stopped him from continuing. "I'm not interested in women now. I just want to make some contribution to the medical field. It can be regarded as a dream come true!"
Lin Luo happened to be walking behind him and stopped when she heard his words. He had higher ideals, and it was she who was narrow-minded and self-indulgent.
Fu Xingchuan suddenly turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Fu had funded some of the institute's advanced experimental equipment. She said calmly, "Deputy Director An asked me to come and say hello."
Lin Luo held a glass of water in her hand.
Fu Xingchuan picked up the wine glass he had just opened and clinked it with hers, holding his glass lower than hers. He said humbly, "We'll need to collaborate and exchange ideas with the institute in the future. I hope Researcher Lin will give us your guidance!"
"Mr. Fu, you're welcome."
As expected, men who focus on their careers are the most handsome. Lin Luo drank all the water in the cup in one breath and actually tasted like wine, which was sweet.
