Chapter 17
Gu Hengsheng came over, and Gu Qingyue squatted on the ground, raised her finger, and complained to him: "Your cat bit me."
Gu Hengsheng held her fingers and examined them carefully. Gu Qingyue, holding onto a glimmer of hope, looked at him and asked, "Do you want to get vaccinated?"
"Yes." He frowned slightly, "Let's go to the hospital now."
"Ah." Gu Qingyue frowned, slowly stood up from the ground, and discussed with him, "Can we not go?"
He shook his head gravely.
Gu Qingyue knew that she had to go to the hospital.
Before the two of them left, the orange cat seemed to realize that it had made something wrong. It curled up in a corner of the sofa, staring at the two of them with its round eyes like glass marbles.
Gu Qingyue looked at Gu Hengsheng and said, "It probably knows that it has done something wrong."
Gu Hengsheng closed the door behind him, and the two of them took the elevator downstairs. Gu Qingyue asked, "Has it ever bit anyone else?"
"No."
"So, I was the first one to be bitten?"
Gu Hengsheng remained silent.
Gu Qingyue sighed, not knowing whether to be happy or angry: "I'm so lucky. I'll go buy a lottery ticket later."
"Are you short of money?" Gu Hengsheng was confused.
"No." Gu Qingyue said, "Maybe I can get lucky today."
Gu Hengsheng was both amused and confused.
Gu Hengsheng drove to the city hospital, got out of the car, and the two of them went into the hospital. Gu Hengsheng handled the paperwork for her. After Gu Qingyue received the vaccine, the old doctor told her to come back again next Sunday.
Gu Qingyue asked cautiously, "How many injections do you need?"
"Three needles." Doctor He is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with kind eyes and kind eyebrows, and gray hair at the temples.
"What about the last shot?"
"I'll tell you next time you come." The doctor said with a smile.
The doctor seemed to be familiar with Gu Hengsheng. He unscrewed the thermos cup on the table, took a sip, and looked at Gu Hengsheng: "Is your father okay?"
"It's okay." said Gu Hengsheng.
The old doctor said, "When you are free someday, come to my house for dinner. If you hadn't come to the hospital today, I wouldn't have known you were in Huai City."
"I've been quite busy lately. I was thinking of visiting again in a few days."
The old doctor waved his hand and said, "Alright, kid, I know what's going on. I'll wait for you to come."
Gu Qingyue followed Gu Hengsheng out of the hospital. At this moment, thunder rumbled and faint lightning flashed across the sky. A heavy rain was about to fall.
She asked curiously, "Do you know Dr. Xu?"
"I am an old acquaintance of the old man." Gu Hengsheng explained.
Gu Qingyue slowly uttered "Oh" and continued, "Grandpa knows so many people."
After a while, she continued, "Your cat bit me today for no reason. You have to compensate me."
"Okay." Gu Hengsheng looked at her with a lowered eyebrow and asked with a smile, "What compensation do you want?"
Gu Qingyue thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "How about allowing me to come to your place for dinner anytime?"
Gu Qingyue stared at him, her face calm, but her heart was beating fast. She pursed her lips and said in a weak tone, "How about it, is it possible?"
Gu Hengsheng nodded twice.
Gu Qingyue was satisfied, her eyebrows slightly curved, and she said happily: "Of course, I won't eat for free, I can help you appropriately."
"Can you help me a little?" he repeated with a smile.
Gu Qingyue was sullen and muttered softly, "You know, the kitchen and I are not compatible."
As the car drove onto the highway, the rain that had been brewing for a long time finally fell as expected.
Raindrops fell on the car window, making the view outside hazy.
The car radio was playing Kary Wu's song "20th Century Boys".
If a meteorite falls tomorrow
Knowing that there is no escape and you are doomed to die
The world is broken and the sky is dark
Who do I most hope to comfort?
Parents, friends or lovers
Do Jesus, Buddha, and God have a role?
......
Gu Qingyue hummed softly along with the music. When Gu Hengsheng passed the gate of the residential complex, he turned the steering wheel again. Gu Qingyue asked in confusion, "Aren't you going back?"
"Let's go to the supermarket and buy some ingredients first," he said.
Gu Hengsheng drove the car to a shopping mall near the community, drove the car into the underground parking lot, and the two got out of the car one after another.
This mall is quite large, and the supermarket is in the basement. Gu Qingyue put her hand on the handrail and looked at him: "How many times have you been here?"
"Third time."
"Okay, what are we doing today?" she asked.
"What do you want to eat?" he asked her.
"Braised beef with chestnuts?" Gu Qingyue frowned, her expression showing a hint of anticipation.
Gu Qingyue is a fan of a food variety show. It features renowned host Wu and actress Xu, both longtime friends, creating a harmonious atmosphere. This show is a breath of fresh air among the crowd, devoid of conflict or overt or clandestine rivalry between the guests, simply the down-to-earth atmosphere of everyday life. Each episode features a guest, and this time, they ordered braised beef with chestnuts.
Gu Qingyue couldn't sleep in the early morning of the day before yesterday, so she found a program to watch. She watched it all night and was drooling. She had been thinking about it for a long time.
Gu Hengsheng looked at her carefully, smiled and said, "Another sudden inspiration this time?"
"Yes." Gu Qingyue felt guilty.
A gust of cold air hits you in the freezer section of the supermarket.
Song Xiaoshu leaned lazily against the shelf behind him, his eyes fixed on the back of a girl in a gray pleated skirt standing in front of the refrigerator. With a headache, he asked, "My second uncle called me at noon and asked if you were with me."
The girl at the refrigerator turned abruptly upon hearing this. The hem of her gray pleated skirt fluttered slightly in the air before falling back down. She held a row of yogurts in her hand, like a sharp blade, and glared at him, "So what did you say?"
"Tell the truth." Song Xiaoshu said carelessly, "What else can I say?"
"Hate it, can't you just say no?"
Song Xiaoshu frowned: "You plan to stay here for a few days, I have to go back to school at night, and I don't have time to play the game of running away from home with you."
"Just answer your question." Song Xiaoyu, holding a row of yogurts, said disapprovingly, "Just give me the key."
Song Xiaoyu is Song Xiaoshu's cousin and is still in her second year of high school. A few days ago, she had an argument with her second uncle and in a fit of anger, she bought a plane ticket to come and seek refuge with Song Xiaoshu.
"Well, I plan to stay here for a few more days and check out some universities in the mainland to prepare for my senior year of high school." Song Xiaoyu said seriously.
"Then you should go back to Macau now."
"Song Xiaoshu, you're so boring." Song Xiaoyu rolled his eyes. "I'll only bother you for a week, and then you can go back to Macau on Sunday. Believe me."
Song Xiaoshu looked suspicious.
Song Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said, "Hey, brother, that girl is so beautiful!"
Song Xiaoshu thought she was trying to change the subject and gave her a speechless look. Then a voice came from behind her: "Song Xiaoshu?"
Song Xiaoshu was still holding a can of Coke on the shelf. Hearing this, he applied a little pressure with his fingers, causing the can to sink a bit. He tilted his head to look. Gu Qingyue was standing in front of him, wearing a black cashmere sweater and a burgundy corduroy skirt. She smiled and said, "What a coincidence."
Song Xiaoyu secretly tugged at Song Xiaoshu's sleeve. Song Xiaoshu looked back at her. Song Xiaoyu winked at him, then looked at Gu Qingyue again, putting on a well-behaved face and smiling, "Sister, hello, I'm Song Xiaoshu's sister, Song Xiaoyu."
"Hello, Gu Qingyue." Gu Qingyue smiled. The little girl in front of her had a pair of sparkling cat eyes under her bangs that reached her eyebrows. She looked very cute.
Gu Qingyue took out a row of yogurts from the refrigerator and heard Song Xiaoyu say crisply, "You like to drink this too. It's delicious. What flavor do you like?"
"It tastes like grapefruit." said Gu Qingyue.
"Come out with your family?" Song Xiaoshu asked.
Gu Qingyue hesitated for a moment, then nodded. She was holding a row of yogurts. Her phone, which was in her skirt pocket, buzzed and vibrated. Gu Qingyue took it out, looked at it, and said to the two of them, "Hey, I have to go first."
Song Xiaoyu waved his hand and said with a smile, "Goodbye."
After Gu Qingyue left, Song Xiaoyu curiously inquired, "Brother, is this beautiful sister your classmate?"
"No, he is Uncle Gu's niece."
"Uncle Gu from Yanjiang?"
Song Xiaoshu nodded.
Song Xiaoyu touched his chin with his fingers and asked, "Hey, brother, do you like me?"
Song Xiaoshu stared at Song Xiaoyu for a long time, then raised his hand and tapped her head: "Let's go."
"What size do you wear?" Gu Hengsheng stopped, his eyes fell on the shelf, and turned to ask Gu Qingyue.
Gu Qingyue's gaze followed his and stopped at the shelves. In addition to cotton slippers, there were also summer flip-flops on the shelves. In short, there were items for all seasons, but the styles were rather simple.
Gu Qingyue hesitated: "Thirty-six yards."
Gu Hengsheng frowned, as if he was also thinking about which one to choose. Finally, he threw the choice to her: "What kind do you want?"
Gu Qingyue stepped forward and after some searching, she finally found a pair of furry shoes buried among the summer slippers. The shoes had a white curly body and a soft upper, and Gu Qingyue was very satisfied.
She threw the cotton shoes into the cart: "This pair."
