Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Chi Ke hates being with people who are too lively...
When the words "first meeting" popped up, Chi Ke's heart skipped a beat and he immediately looked up at the other person.
The original owner started working under Leng Yunting right after graduation. It is impossible that she had not met Ji Qian during that period. How could it be their “first meeting”?
The doctor held his hands in the air, as if he was unaware of his alertness. He was still smiling, and if you looked closely you could even find that the corners of his mouth were raised even more.
…as brilliant as blooming spring flowers, wasn’t it half dead just now?
Chi Ke extended his hand cautiously, thinking that this was simply incomprehensible.
The housekeeper nearby saw this interaction and thought they were joking, so he joined in: "Doctor Ji has been away for further studies for more than a year and hasn't been back. Chi Zhu mentioned you last week, so you don't recognize me now?"
Chi Ke was surprised again.
Although the butler was joking, the meaning of protecting his son in his words was obvious. To put it bluntly, he was standing on Chi Ke's side and condemning the other party for being "heartless and ungrateful."
Did the original owner have a good relationship with Butler Wu?
"Ah..." Ji Qian was not embarrassed after hearing this, but winked at Chi Ke, "Chi Zhu, it turns out that we have a good relationship?"
A joke or two is no big deal, but the continuous intimacy is a bit overwhelming.
Chi Ke withdrew his hand indifferently.
No matter what the relationship between the original owner and the doctor was, he really didn't like people who were too familiar with others, no matter how handsome they were.
"I don't know." He said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I have forgotten everything."
He is actually a very mean person. When he feels unhappy, he doesn't want to make others happy.
If someone feels uncomfortable when talking to him, there is no doubt that he is doing it on purpose.
Chi Ke's original intention was to teach this overly enthusiastic doctor some sense of propriety and stop acting like a close friend.
Who knew that after saying this, Ji Qian's eyes would become even brighter, brighter than the dazzling headlights of a Ferrari.
"It's good that you forgot. You should forget things easily." Ji Qian calmly withdrew his hand, took the initiative, and invited them to go into the house. "Come in quickly, it's very cold tonight... Chi Zhu, you should wear more clothes. Your hands are too cold. It's easy to get sick in this season."
Chi Ke didn't think the other party had the right to say that he was wearing too little, and subconsciously glanced at a pair of bare calves.
Ji Qian noticed his gaze and coughed to clear his throat for the second time tonight: "It's not usually like this. Tonight is a special case. I usually have good taste in clothes."
Chi Ke threw the disposable slippers to him and said coldly, "Oh."
Ji Qian was very quick in his movements and even quicker in his words: "An hour ago, my outfit could have been worn on the catwalk."
Chi Ke: “That’s great.”
But what does it have to do with me? Why should I care whether you wear mink, fur or shorts?
Ji Qian stared at him for two seconds, and found that he probably didn't believe it, so he continued to explain stubbornly: "I——"
"Doctor Ji," Chi Ke interrupted, unable to bear it any longer, "If Mr. Xu dies of his illness, all of you here will be buried with him."
Ji Qian finally shut up.
He became as listless as when he first arrived, climbing the stairs holding onto the handrail with his head hung, looking like a zombie.
When he turned the corner, he turned back without giving up: "Chi Zhu, I'm not usually like this."
Chi Ke: “…”
Chi Ke really wanted to curse, "Are you sick?", but when he raised his head, he noticed that the other person's ears had a barely noticeable scarlet color.
When he heard the door closing on the second floor, he couldn't hold it back and raised his hand to press down the corners of his lips.
I thought he was a real hooligan, but it turns out he knows how to be embarrassed.
The original work's description is not completely wrong. Innocent love should be true. As for "gentle and forbearing", "reserved and low-key", "inferiority and sensitivity"...
It was indeed not noticeable in a short period of time.
The author of the original novel is indeed the biological mother of the protagonist. As far as the people I have met so far, except for the protagonists who are exactly the same as described in the book, the others are more or less different.
Chi Ke realized once again that everything happening around him was no longer just black and white words, but a real world.
"Dr. Ji has changed a lot this time after returning."
Suddenly, a cup of steaming jasmine tea was placed in his hands, and the gray-haired middle-aged man was filled with emotion.
Chi Ke stared at him for a few seconds before saying, "Butler Wu, where are your glasses?"
The man took off his suit and changed into casual pajamas. His monocular glasses were also gone. At first glance, I almost didn't recognize him.
Fortunately, Chi Ke still remembered his voice.
"Boss Leng is not here, and neither is Mr. Xu. What's the point of me wearing them?" Butler Wu looked at his empty eyes and asked in surprise, "You forgot too? I'm not nearsighted, and I wear glasses because of Mr. Xu."
Chi Ke: “?”
It turned out that in July last year, when Xu Lemian came to the Leng family for the first time, he said to the housekeeper the first time he saw him: "Brother Yunting, why doesn't your housekeeper wear a suit or single-sided glasses? He is different from the ones in the TV series."
Leng Yunting immediately asked Wang Ma to bring back a suit within ten minutes, and said to Xu Lemian lovingly, "It will be the same from now on."
After hearing the whole story, Chi Ke said: "."
Sorry, as he had just arrived, he still underestimated the condition of the two epileptic men.
"The doctor forgot last year. You two are really..." Butler Wu shook his head helplessly, "How can you be so young but have a worse memory than an old man like me?"
"You are in your prime, of course you are better than us." Chi Ke accepted his cup of tea and spoke in a more familiar tone.
When he was in the mood to socialize, he would not let the topic drop, so he casually asked, "What has changed about Doctor Ji?"
"Dr. Ji, how could he be so talkative in the past?" The housekeeper began to recall the past. "The young master of the Ji family used to be taciturn, very gentle, and had no temper. He would say 'yes' to anything he was asked to do, and would never get angry no matter how the young master yelled at him. But now..."
"Boss Leng, I have completed the task you assigned to me." The young master of the Ji family walked downstairs while talking on the phone. His speech was as fast as a machine gun, and he was enthusiastic, cheerful, and false and exaggerated. "Of course I tried my best. I dare not not try my best. The temperature was 36.9 degrees, just short of a low fever of 0.3 degrees. How could I not take it seriously? Let alone myself, I just had a video consultation with my senior brothers and sisters and several teachers from that year. Everyone was very serious. They didn't eat or sleep, and sat in front of the camera in suits and leather shoes. After an intense discussion, we all agreed that Mr. Xu Lemian can definitely go out on a date with you tomorrow morning."
Anyone can tell that the angel in white is speaking in a weird tone.
Chi Ke laughed again and continued the housekeeper's words: "Now he is possessed by a ghost."
"Isn't it?" The housekeeper didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Well, this is the personality that a young master from a noble family should have. Speaking of which, Chi Zhu, you have actually changed too."
Chi Ke did not comment.
No longer discussing this topic, he greeted Dr. Ji who was jogging over: "How is Mr. Xu?"
"He fell asleep when he went up, and he's very healthy." Ji Qian's attitude was much more serious when talking about the patient. "But his breathing is still a little heavy. Don't eat too much oil, salt, or spicy food these days. Take the medicine I prescribed for two more days. Wear more clothes when you go out tomorrow morning to reduce sweating during exercise. It's not a big problem."
"I will tell President Leng the truth."
Chi Ke thought: As expected, no matter how unreliable a person is, they will always care about the person they like.
If it weren't for these medical advices, he would have almost forgotten that his private doctor had a secret crush on the protagonist.
But the same thing goes, Chi Ke is not interested in anyone other than the original owner, and he has no desire to explore their love, hatred, and grudges.
He glanced at the work message he had just received and nodded to Ji Qian: "Since the supervision is completed, I will leave first. The bill and contract for the amusement park have not been signed yet."
"So anxious?" Ji Qian didn't expect him to not chat at all. "Wouldn't you like to go have a drink together?"
"I'm in a hurry. Let's talk about it next time." Chi Ke declined politely using the usual words used by people in the workplace.
Ji Qian said "Oh" dryly, without any hesitation: "Then I will take you there?"
Chi Ke looked at his slippers and thought to himself that I am not that fearless. He shook his head and declined again: "I drove Mr. Leng's car."
Ji Qian grabbed the cuff of his suit as if he was afraid that the man would run away.
"Doctor, is there anything else?" The act of grabbing the cuffs was a bit presumptuous, but it did not violate the sense of boundaries, so Chi Ke was puzzled, but did not feel disgusted or resist, and let him grab it.
Ji Qian hesitated: "Chi Zhu, were you so cold to me before?"
Chi Ke smiled and used his own words to vaguely explain it: "Doctor, this is our 'first meeting' today."
If he is really the original owner's friend, Chi Ke will definitely take it seriously.
But he could see that the doctor was not familiar with the original owner.
Otherwise, based on a greeting when they first met, the doctor would definitely be able to sense the changes in "Chi Zhu". As a friend, what he should have done was to ask tentatively and be on guard, instead of joking and chatting like he was doing now.
He just checked his work WeChat account again and found that the two of them were not even friends. They had been in contact through phone and email before.
"Yes, it's our first meeting..." Ji Qian let go of her hand and showed a helpless smile, "It's our first meeting, do you dislike me a little bit?"
Very sharp.
Chi Ke shook his head and told the truth: "I'm just not familiar with him."
"Is that so? Leng Yunting said that Chi Zhu has a very gentle personality. I thought you hated me..." Ji Qian muttered to himself and then became cheerful again, "It's good that you don't hate me. Chi Zhu, we will get to know each other better in the future."
[He was dressed simply, out of place in this fashion capital. He always kept his head down, with messy hair casually draped over his forehead. He spoke softly, fearing to attract other people's attention. Every move he made seemed to be trying to block possible scrutiny from the outside world.]
This is how Dr. Ji is described in the original book.
The man in front of him with a casual and lazy smile cannot be said to be different from the description in the original book, but it can only be said that he has nothing in common with the description in the original book.
Chi Ke hates hanging out with people who are too lively.
Such a person is too difficult to control. He likes to create emergencies to disrupt plans, and he is too lazy to waste time on "uncertainty".
Before I could answer, a cell phone rang suddenly.
"I want to fly forward. I am the rose waiting for love!"
"Excuse me, I have to answer the phone." Ji Qian hurriedly took out the phone from his pocket, and the melody of Phoenix Legend's "Rose Waiting for Love" stopped. "Um, um...Okay, report the situation and prepare the operating room. I'll be there now and will be there around three o'clock."
He listened to the phone with a frown on his face. He didn't say another word, and didn't even glance at Chi Ke. He strode out.
Just when passing by Chi Ke, he whispered: "Chi Zhu, it's foggy at night, drive carefully, see you next time."
The words were spoken softly, but because they came from his ear, Chi Ke could clearly feel the other person's weak breathing.
His ears felt a little itchy, so he tilted his head and lowered his voice, "Doctor Ji, it's not safe to drive in slippers."
"Hmm? Ah... OK." Ji Qian didn't expect this, and was obviously stunned. He walked to the door and suddenly turned back and stuffed a band-aid into his hand. "I almost forgot this. I pay attention to safety. I didn't wear slippers when driving. I have other shoes. Thank you Chizhu for your concern."
Chi Ke: “…”
Who cares about you?
He lowered his head and realized belatedly that the band-aid on his finger cut from the A4 paper had been accidentally knocked off.
There were tiny bloodstains on the fingertips, but if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice them at all, and he didn't even take them seriously.
The deafening roar of the Ferrari's engine at the door resounded through the sky again.
Chi Ke removed the bandage and wrapped it around his face, picked up Leng Yunting's Porsche keys, and left the villa.
…
When Ji Qian finished the operation, the sky was already turning pale, and the rising sun emitted a few rays of golden light, making people feel warm.
He rubbed his aching neck, and someone immediately jumped out to give him a shoulder rub: "I'm so sorry, Senior Brother, you're almost resigning and I still ask you to help me all night."
"My resignation application has not been approved, and I haven't received my half-month salary yet. I am still a doctor here. I can't say I am helping, it's my duty." Ji Qian waved him away, "You are trying to tickle me with this little effort?"
"Hey, I'm so tired. I don't have any strength." The doctor slumped into his chair and said weakly, "Brother, I really admire your energy. Aren't you tired? You're still smiling."
"I'm tired." Ji Qian slumped into another chair, closed his eyes and said, "But I'm in a good mood."
"Hmm?" The man immediately perked up, "Did you win the lottery last night?"
"Vulgar." Ji Qian raised one eyelid and said lazily, "I met a very interesting person."
"Ohhhhhh? Peach Blossom? Big beauty?"
"Get lost, where did your peach blossom come from? As a man, I just feel that you are attractive and we feel a little bit of sympathy for each other." Ji Qian kicked him away in annoyance.
"Tsk." The one who was kicked away spun around in his chair and came closer to him. "So he's handsome?"
Ji Qian: “…”
Ji Qian seemed to recall something and smiled: "Yeah, a super handsome guy."
Chi Ke's face was ridiculously handsome, stunningly handsome. He didn't need anything to set off his handsomeness. It was just a natural handsomeness without any skill, a handsomeness that touched people's hearts at first sight.
Especially the eyes.
Chi Ke's eyes were too calm and deep, as quiet as the ocean before a storm, brewing an unknown storm.
Although the wind was light last night, it was noisy. However, Ji Qian could hear nothing. Through the dull and throbbing heartbeat, he inexplicably felt that time had stood still.
It's like waiting for a resonance on an uninhabited island.
The moment they looked at each other, he looked at the surging waves and suddenly felt a little sad.
