Chapter 82: Falsely claiming credit
Yan Shuli looked in the direction of the bedside table and saw that there was indeed a flag placed there.
On that bright red flag were written the four big words "act bravely to do what is right".
Yan Shuli coughed twice and asked, "Whose is this? Where should it be sent to?"
Hearing the strange man's voice, Xu Xiaoyue, who was curled up in the quilt, froze. She laughed at herself in her heart, wondering what she was expecting. She was even fantasizing that Yan Ye would come back again.
She closed her eyes, her voice full of fatigue: "The person outside sent it to the wrong place. This is not mine."
"Then I'll ask who it belongs to and send it over."
Yan Shuli had to come to the ward just to pretend to be there because of Liu Ye. Now after hearing this, he didn't even want to pretend anymore. He just took the flag and walked out quickly.
Xu Xiaoyue had her back to him and thought it was a medical worker. She was silent for a while and let the other party give it to Yan Ye.
The man came out with the banner, grabbed a random person, raised the thing in his hand, and asked, "Do you know who this banner is for?"
He asked three or four people in succession, but no one could explain it clearly. Only one person knew a little about it and said that it seemed to be given by a couple to a female comrade in the ward. Just now, when the couple came over, they held the flag and asked him about it.
"Old man, do you still remember the last name of that female comrade?" Yan Shuli finally met someone who knew a clue, and he held on to the person tightly and kept asking questions.
The man thought for a long time, and then he seemed to remember something and said, "I can't remember the rest. At that time, a man brought the couple and seemed to have mentioned that they were going to give it to the man named Yan..."
Because the surname Yan is relatively rare, he was only able to recall this little bit.
The female comrade living in the ward was accompanied by a man named Yan. Combined with what Xu Xiaoyue had said before, Yan Shuli had probably guessed who it was for. He thanked the man, took the flag and walked back.
"Jiaojiao, look, this is the flag that couple gave you." As soon as he entered the ward, Yan Shuli took out something from behind him as if to seek credit and present a treasure.
Zheng Jiaojiao was lying on the bed, her ears twitched. Liu Ye, who was sitting next to her, frowned, looked over and said, "Didn't I ask you to go see what's going on with Xiaoyue? You're back pretty early."
Yan Shuli didn't care about the complaints in Liu Ye's words at this time. He put the banner in his hand into her hand and said, "Jiaojiao, you are too anonymous when doing good deeds. The banner was sent to Xu Xiaoyue. If I hadn't happened to take it back, the couple would have lost the person they really wanted to thank."
Zheng Jiaojiao sat up and looked down at the thing in her hand. She was stunned for a moment, thinking carefully about Yan Shuli's words, and tentatively said: "What kind of flag is it? I didn't do anything..."
The "did not do anything" mentioned here, on the one hand, means that really nothing was done, and on the other hand, it means that not much was done.
Obviously, Yan Shuli assumed the second meaning without even thinking about it, and said, "They came to give a banner, and they specifically said it was for the friend who was lying in the hospital bed and whose surname was Yan."
As Yan Shuli spoke, his cheeks flushed slightly. He was too embarrassed to say directly that the man said the person with the surname Yan was the lesbian's boyfriend.
Zheng Jiaojiao tried it a little and found that Yan Shuli didn't realize that he had sent the gift to the wrong person. Liu Ye beside her was also surprised and said, "Jiaojiao, is this really for you?"
Her eyes changed, Zheng Jiaojiao lowered her eyelids, and admitted lightly: "Well, I didn't do anything. I didn't expect that couple would come back to give me the banner."
It was like someone brought her a pillow just when she wanted to sleep. She was worried that Liu Ye's impression of her was getting worse and worse, but now the situation was suddenly reversed.
Liu Ye's gaze swept across Zheng Jiaojiao's face several times. She always felt that the flag came a little too suddenly, but since Yan Shuli said so, it should not be wrong.
The woman showed a rare smile on her face: "Jiaojiao, I didn't expect you to do a good deed secretly without telling us."
Yan Shuli next to him also chimed in: "Mom, Jiaojiao has always been a good person. I still remember that she was the one who fed the cats in the compound."
When the boy talked about these things, his eyes were shining and he looked at Zheng Jiaojiao with sparkling eyes.
But when Zheng Jiaojiao heard the words "the cat in the compound", her face froze for a moment, then returned to normal and said, "It's nothing, this is what I should do."
The other two people thought she was being modest and didn't say anything, just smiled.
Yan Ye became angrier and angrier as he walked, and he couldn't suppress the rage in his heart. He stopped suddenly, which scared Wang Jianhua next to him and he stopped too.
"What on earth was she thinking?"
The man's depressed voice came, completely different from his usual condescending attitude. At this moment, he was like a lion with its teeth pulled out, with a hint of fatigue in his vicissitudes.
The blue veins on Wang Jianhua's forehead twitched. It seemed that this man had been thinking about this question all the way.
In the past, there were so many female comrades from the art troupe surrounding him, but Yan Ye never paid any attention to them. He was so pure and unselfish that people wondered if he had any physical problems.
Now I finally get it, but the object of my enlightenment seems to be not right.
Falling in love with your nephew's fiancée is a bit shocking no matter how you look at it.
Countless thoughts flashed through Wang Jianhua's mind, and finally he just sighed and said, "Brother, you are my real brother."
"No matter how much you like this woman, you have to look at her conditions. Since ancient times, people have always emphasized matching up. She is your nephew's fiancée. Even if you have any ideas, I advise you to give them up as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment when you meet in the future."
Thinking of this man's behavior of smashing the wall after returning last time, Wang Jianhua's tone of persuasion this time was particularly gentle.
But after he said so much, all he got in return was a cold sneer from the man: "What can status prevent? Not to mention that she is just a fiancée, even if she is already married, there are still divorces..."
His words were meaningful, and looking at his serious expression, Wang Jianhua was secretly shocked.
What Yan Ye was really afraid of was not his identity, but that he could not recognize Xu Xiaoyue's heart.
She was always hot and cold towards him, which made him anxious and worried. One second he was immersed in her tenderness, thinking that they were in love, and the next second he was so angry at her words that he gritted his teeth.
Xu Xiaoyue seemed to have some kind of magic. When she was well behaved, people wanted to give her the stars, but when she was bad, she could really make people angry to death.
