Chapter 212 Some "Young Couples" Who Have Come to Their Mind
For the next two days, Tu Yao did not contact him again.
She thought that everyone can be timid, and Koike was no exception.
As long as she's brave, that's fine.
When I got downstairs, Xu Bai was already there.
These past few days, Xu Bai has been a regular visitor to the Cheng family, coming every morning and evening without fail.
Tu Yao walked over and patted him: "Xiao Bai, has Xiao Chi been very busy lately?"
Xu Bai nodded: "Probably. Our clan uncle was also involved in that smuggling case. A lot of people have come to the house these past few days, some to plead for leniency, some to try and get information out of us. I didn't want to watch, so I ran away."
Tu Yao then asked, "Is Xiao Chi at home now?"
"Yes, my uncle has always worked remotely and rarely shows his face."
Tu Yao paused for a second, then asked, "Xiao Bai, can I come to your house?"
Upon hearing this, both Xu Bai and Cheng Sangsang were stunned.
"……ah?"
Tu Yao said casually, "Is it inconvenient? That's okay. Could you please pass on a message to Xiao Chi for me? I..."
"sure!"
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Bai interrupted, "Of course you can! Big sister! You can come whenever you want! My house is your house, there's nothing inconvenient about it!"
"Then wait for me!" Tu Yao immediately ran upstairs.
Xu Bai was a little confused and nudged the girl next to him.
"Little Curly, don't you think that my older sister and my uncle have a really good relationship?"
Cheng Sangsang: ...
Cheng Sangsang was too lazy to pay attention to him. The site accident was resolved, and she was busy selecting new filming locations. She was too busy to have time for intellectual charity.
He casually remarked, "Yes, that's why you must never offend Tu Xiaomao, or you'll suffer a terrible fate!"
Xu Bai:? ? ?
"Isn't this what I reminded you of back then?"
Back in Crane Village, when Cheng Sangsang was persuaded by Bai Chumeng to set a trap for Tu Yao, he subtly reminded her of the exact same thing.
Cheng Sangsang was smug: "What goes around comes around, now it's my turn to remind you!"
Xu Bai:......
Seeing that Xu Bai had been exceptionally nice to her these past two days, Cheng Sangsang still added, "Think carefully about why you reminded me not to offend Tu Xiaomao back then."
"Then think about why I reminded you of this as well."
What a load of nonsense...
He warned Curly-haired Boy back then because his uncle considered his older sister his only friend; now Curly-haired Boy is warning him, of course, because his uncle considers his older sister...
Wait...wait!
Wait, wait, wait!
His eyes widened in horror, and he quickly grabbed Cheng Sangsang: "No...no way?!"
"Little...Little Curly Hair?!"
Is it as I guessed?
Cheng Sangsang glanced at him in surprise. He actually guessed it?
...Okay, I guess. He's not that stupid!
Xu Bai gasped in shock, muttering, "No wonder...no wonder..."
"No wonder my uncle came immediately when he heard that my eldest sister was coming to Hong Kong."
"No wonder he can't stand me talking badly about him in front of my older sister!"
"...That's not right!"
Xu Bai suddenly remembered something and pulled her back: "Little Curly Hair, wait a minute, they're not the same kind of people!"
"My uncle thinks everyone is an idiot, but my older sister thinks everyone is an idiot. There's absolutely no hope for my uncle!"
Cheng Sangsang: ?
Cheng Sangsang glared at him: "What do you mean! Who said that two people have to be exactly the same to be together!"
Xu Bai blurted out, "That's true, for example, we're both idiots, our IQs are about the same, so we get along very well..."
Halfway through his sentence, Xu Bai suddenly realized something, his eyes flickered, and he quickly and hurriedly shut his mouth!
Cheng Sangsang frowned. "What do you mean we're all idiots? How am I idiot..."
He suddenly fell silent halfway through his sentence.
Cheng Sangsang belatedly turned her head, and the two pairs of eyes, one high and one low, successfully met each other's gaze.
The next second, their faces turned bright red!
Cheng Sangsang immediately looked away in panic, stammering as she shouted, "You stinky Xu Bai! What nonsense are you spouting! When did I ever associate with you..."
"You...you're the idiot!!!"
When Tu Yao finished packing her small bag and came out, she noticed an eerie quiet in the air.
Cheng Sangsang and Xu Bai each sat at one end of the sofa, leaving a two-meter gap between them.
Upon seeing her come out, they both stood up and blurted out.
"Big sister, let me take you!"
"Tu Xiaomao, let me take you there!"
The air fell into an eerie silence for a second.
Tu Yao was taken aback, looking at this and then at that... Wasn't everything just fine a moment ago?
Two meters away, Xu Bai couldn't help but cough lightly. Cheng Sangsang's eyes flickered, and she subconsciously wanted to retort, but then she seemed to remember something and awkwardly shut her mouth.
Tu Yao blinked and immediately waved her hand: "No need, no need, I can go by myself!"
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Behind them, the two subconsciously looked at each other, and the next second, their faces turned bright red. Without saying a word, they each occupied one end of the sofa.
...
In the physiotherapy room at the Xu family home, after another round of examinations, Dr. Wan took off his mask.
As the Xu family's doctor for many years, his main patient was Xu Chi. However, over the years, Xu Chi had only returned home a handful of times, and even when he did return, he left his health to his own devices, which greatly troubled Dr. Wan.
He was not only worried about Xu Chi's health, but also constantly vigilant about the risk of losing his job.
Just three days ago, Xu Chi approached him and offered to have his health monitored.
Health monitoring is equivalent to long-term body management, and Dr. Wan was so happy that she cried on the spot.
But just half a day later, Dr. Wan was the first to regret it.
Because the health monitoring he envisioned and Xu Chi's health monitoring were two completely different concepts.
Normal health monitoring involves checking and assessing one's physical condition at regular intervals.
Xu Chi did set fixed time periods, but he shortened the monitoring interval to one hour!
Every hour, he has to undergo a thorough and systematic review.
To use an inappropriate analogy, it seems he was treating himself as a guinea pig, sacrificing his physical health to confirm whether he was healthy.
Even though he has recovered most of his health, he can't withstand this kind of ordeal!
Dr. Wan looked at his pale face, sighed, and earnestly offered another word of advice.
"...Chairman Xu, we really can't continue like this."
She hadn't expected him to agree after she finished speaking, and was about to leave when a deep voice came from behind her.
"You're right, it's not possible for now."
Dr. Wan was taken aback. "...Why did you suddenly see the light?"
Xu Chi smiled and said, "Because of my other 'doctor,' she is very smart and perceptive, and she can detect abnormalities at any time."
Then they quickly deduced what he was doing.
Dr. Wan hesitated for a moment, then asked, "...Chairman Xu, so what exactly are you doing?"
"Or are you judging or confirming something?"
Xu Chi's smile faded slightly as he looked out the window.
Of course, it's about judging whether his health was gained at the cost of Tu Yao's life.
In the past few days, he has watched all the recorded broadcasts repeatedly and recalled every moment he spent with Tu Yao frame by frame.
He was certain that Tu Yao's life progress bar had no connection to him whatsoever.
However, this does not mean they are completely unrelated.
Otherwise, how can you explain his rapid recovery in just a few months, and how all his ailments would disappear as soon as he got close to her?
The verification method is also very simple. Just like this, do a continuous health monitoring to see if his physical condition drops precipitously after he leaves Tu Yao.
However... Tu Xiaomao is too clever; he also cannot leave her for long periods of time.
So he only gave himself three days.
"...Anyway, I should go see her."
Xu Chi pulled out the needle, and the next second, his phone rang.
"Xiao Chi, I'm at your door."
Xu Chi was slightly taken aback.
Outside the garden, it was early winter. Tu Yao was wrapped in a round yellow cotton coat and carried a small bag that she had brought from Xianhe Village to Yanjing and then from Yanjing to Gangcheng.
Her nose was already red from the cold wind, and she couldn't help but sniff, whispering into her phone:
“You used to be the one who came to me, now it’s my turn to come to you.”
