”Lu Wusui…” Jiang Huai called him in a sticky tone, “If something really happens to me, you are not allowed to be like Uncle Tang, okay?”
Lu Wusui did not answer.
In the darkness, his face was expressionless, but if you looked closely, you could see some resistance.
Not only did he resist this idea, he didn’t even want to agree to Jiang Huai’s request.
He knew he couldn’t do it.
Seeing that he hadn’t spoken for a long time, Jiang Huai approached him and said, “Is it okay? I feel sorry for you. If the baby becomes the second you, wouldn’t it be even more pitiful?”
Lu Wusui said: “If you feel sorry for me, shouldn’t you not say such things?”
Jiang Huai felt that he seemed angry.
Normally, he couldn’t really tell whether Lu Wusui was really angry or just pretending to be angry.
But at this moment, he understood without even trying to figure it out, that Lu Wusui was definitely angry.
Jiang Huai was quite at a loss.
At this moment, Lu Wusui suddenly hugged him tightly and buried his head in his neck.
Jiang Huai pursed his lips.
He likes his child and also likes Lu Wusui.
They are a family, and in his subconscious, he has put Lu Wusou and the baby in the same boat. However, after hearing about Tang Pingjian’s story, he discovered that father and children are not necessarily in the same boat, but may be at opposite ends of the scale.
It’s not like there’s no such thing as a wife having difficulty giving birth, but the husband still manages to raise the child well.
But it is obvious that Lu Wusui is not that kind of husband.
In Lu Wusui’s heart, between Jiang Huai and the baby, he obviously values Jiang Huai more. He is Jiang Huai’s husband first, and then a father.
The order of his identities also determines his attitude towards things.
But Jiang Huai doesn’t want Lu Wusou to become the second Tang Pingjian.
For the sake of one person, I have been immersed in despair for more than twenty years. With such a life, I am afraid that when I look up at the blue sky, it will be gray, right?
The next day, Jiang Huai and Lu Wusui tacitly did not mention what happened yesterday.
It was as if their argument yesterday had never existed.
When Lu Wusui went out in the evening, Jiang Huai took the initiative to see him out for the first time, and even volunteered to tie his tie for him – but he had never done such a job before, and the end result was that he tied the tie into a knot.
Lu Wusui: …That’s totally unnecessary.
Jiang Huai didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with the tie he tied.
He was still smug, “I just watched you tie it once before, and then I learned it. Am I amazing?”
Lu Wusui: “…I can see that you have only read it once.”
He didn’t even know how to say something perfunctory.
Jiang Huai even adjusted his tie very carefully and said happily: “When you go to work, your colleagues will definitely praise you!”
Lu Wusou: “…I don’t seem to have any colleagues?”
”Oh, that’s right,” Jiang Huai finally realized, “You have all subordinates over there.”
Lu Wusui couldn’t bear to look at it.
However, although he tried hard to show a disgusted expression, the upturned corners of his mouth had already revealed his mood.
The two of them really look like a couple.
No, they are really husband and wife, and they are really a couple.
Lu Wusui didn’t remain reserved for long. When he was about to go out, he bent down and kissed Jiang Huai on the mouth. Then, while Jiang Huai was still stunned and hadn’t reacted, he walked out of the house.
However, what neither of them probably expected was.
After all, the tie that Jiang Huai tied for Lu Wusui could not be seen by Lu Wusui’s subordinates.
Not long after he left the house, Jiang Huai heard a call – the butler was indeed a professionally trained one, and he rushed out first while he was still confused.
Jiang Huai followed the butler’s back.
Then he saw Tang Pingjian lying in the Lu family garden.
In the hospital, Jiang Huai and Lu Wusui were guarding the door of the emergency room. Lu Wusui was frowning and still working on his computer.
From time to time, a work call came in, and Lu Wusui handled them all in an orderly manner.
While Jiang Huai admired him, he also felt that he was working too hard.
Tang Pingjian has been in there for a long time.
Occasionally a doctor would come out, but nothing could be seen from his expression.
By the time Tang Pingjian was finally pushed out, it was almost noon.
The doctor asked, “Who are the patient’s family members?”
The last time Jiang Huai and Lu Wusui heard this was when Old Madam Lu was being rescued. It sounded like a bad verdict, and it made people feel a little uneasy.
Lu Wusui closed his computer before saying, “I am.”
The Lu family’s hospital is very large, and it is impossible for every doctor to know Lu Wusui.
So the doctor couldn’t help but say, “You are very kind-hearted young man. Send him a little later and let your family prepare for the funeral.”
Lu Wusui frowned, “What disease?”
The doctor said, “He had a lot of minor illnesses, which caused him to faint. He also had a major illness, alcoholic cirrhosis.”
——Lu Wusui’s pupils shrank.
Although I was mentally prepared, I didn’t expect the diagnosis to be so quick.
Jiang Huai’s breathing became even more rapid.
At this moment, they were all thinking of the same question.
Since Tang Pingjian’s liver cirrhosis was found, what about Jiang Huai’s disease? He died of this disease in his previous life.
It seems that Jiang Huai’s pregnancy problem has been solved.
But what if he has other problems?
The thought flashed through his mind, and the doctor said, “Fortunately, nothing serious has happened yet. It doesn’t mean that there is no cure for this disease. You should go and complete the hospitalization procedures first, and I will talk to you in detail later.”
”Okay, I’ll go and handle the formalities.” Lu Wusui’s expression became a little strange, “Thank you.”
The doctor said, “It should be.”
After the doctor left, Lu Wusui grabbed Jiang Huai’s wrist and said in a deep voice: “In your previous life, what disease did you die of? Do you remember?”
Jiang Huai was stunned for a moment.
He thought for a moment before saying, “I, I was already unconscious when I was diagnosed. I have been trying to recall it in this life, but I just can’t remember it.”
Lu Wusui held his breath.
He didn’t want to scare Jiang Huai because of this, especially since Jiang Huai was pregnant.
He let go of Jiang Huai’s hand and said in a restrained tone: “There are many bacteria in the hospital, you can’t stay too long, I will go home after I finish the treatment, you should follow the housekeeper back obediently, be good.”
At this point, Jiang Huai knew that he would not attack Tang Pingjian.
So he nodded.
In the ward, Tang Pingjian had a gloomy face and lay quietly looking at the ceiling.
What’s so good about the ceiling in a hospital?
During the month that Lu Chengqiu passed away, he just lay there and watched.
In fact, there was nothing good to see, but since Lu Chengqiu’s death, any beautiful thing was no different from a dead object in his eyes.
In this case, there is no difference between looking at the ceiling and looking at flowers.
When Lu Wusui pushed the door open, Tang Pingjian’s eyes rolled around.
He still feels apologetic and guilty towards his son.
But all of this suddenly became meaningless after he learned that he would soon die. He even said with some anticipation: “The doctor should say that I won’t live long, right?”
Lu Wusui looked at him quietly.
He found that he had no special ideas about revenge on Tang Pingjian.
In the past, he always felt that only when Tang Pingjian died would his hatred for Tang Pingjian disappear, but now he found that this idea itself was meaningless.
Especially when Tang Pingjian hoped for his death even more than he did.
After putting himself in Tang Pingjian’s shoes yesterday, and even when he was actually facing the same crisis as Tang Pingjian, he realized that if it were him, he might not have done better than Tang Pingjian.
To put it in a ridiculous way, he might not even survive until he develops cirrhosis of the liver.
It was also in this ridiculous way that he understood Tang Pingjian.
Lu Wusui sat down at the head of Tang Pingjian’s bed and said in a deep voice, “You are still some distance away from death.”
Tang Pingjian’s eyes dimmed, “What distance?”
”If I decide to operate on you, and I happen to find a suitable donor for you at this time, you will be able to survive. Or if I take good care of your health, you should have no problem living another ten years.”
Tang Pingjian seemed very sure, “You won’t.”
”I can’t?” Lu Wusui sneered, “Why do you think I can’t?”
Tang Pingjian said: “You should wish that I would die sooner, right? You have hated me for so many years, but I still have some self-awareness.”
Lu Wusui looked at him quietly for a moment.
After a moment, he lowered his head and smiled lightly, as if mocking, “I won’t, but it’s not because I hate you, but because it’s not that easy to find.”
Tang Pingjian was stunned for a moment.
He almost thought he didn’t understand. It took him a long time to realize that Lu Wusui just said that he didn’t hate him anymore?
Is this what you mean?
”But it’s not that I don’t hate you anymore,” Lu Wusui said, “It’s just that hatred consumes too much energy. I have more meaningful things waiting for me to do, and I don’t need you as a part of them. So I’m not interested in hating you now.”
Tang Pingjian was really stunned this time.
”You can take care of yourself,” Lu Wusui stopped confronting him and restrained his edge. “If you ever think it through and want to have surgery, come find me. After all, you gave me a life, so I will give you one back.”
Tang Pingjian remained silent for a long time.
When Lu Wusui felt bored, he stood up.
Just as he was about to open the door of the ward.
Tang Pingjian suddenly said, “When you were three years old and got lost, I looked for you for a very long time.”
Lu Wusui paused.
”Although I am still upset about your mother’s death, I never thought of losing you,” Tang Pingjian said, “It’s just that Dad was useless. I couldn’t find you after searching for a long time, so I had to ask the Lu family for help. I don’t know if you still remember this, but Xiao Sui, Dad is sorry for you.”
Lu Wusui had his back to him, so it was hard to tell the emotion on his face.
He clenched his fist several times and put his hand on the handle of the ward, but failed to open the door.
Later, it was the nurse who came in and pushed the door open.
She looked at Lu Wusou strangely, then at Tang Pingjian on the bed, “Are you awake? If you are awake, don’t move around. In addition to your illness, you also have a small blood clot from fainting and falling. Be careful not to get into trouble if you move around!”
Amid the nurse’s chatter.
Lu Wusui let out a trembling breath and left the ward under Tang Pingjian’s gaze.
A week is neither long nor short.
Before Jiang Huai was fully prepared, it was time to go abroad.
Due to his special physical condition, Jiang Huai needed special care when boarding the plane. Lu Wusui was also worried about him flying alone to a foreign country, so he quickly finished all his things and set off for a foreign country with Jiang Huai.
Before leaving, Lu Wusou’s assistant sent them to the airport.
He said to his assistant, “How is Tang Pingjian doing recently?”
”There’s nothing new going on. He’s still hanging out in bars and pubs all day, looking for something to drink. He doesn’t show any intention of quitting drinking.”
Lu Wusui said: “He has made up his mind to seek death.”
The assistant didn’t dare to respond.
”Again, it’s up to him to choose,” Lu Wusui said. “If he doesn’t want treatment, we don’t need to care even if he dies on the street. At most, we can call the police for him. If he wants treatment, the Lu Family Hospital will reimburse him for everything and will also find him a medic.”
The assistant said, “Yes.”
Jiang Huai’s eyes sparkled. He put his arm around Lu Wusui’s and whispered, “Are you finally willing to forgive Uncle?”
”I haven’t forgiven him for anything,” Lu Wusui pinched his face, “I just don’t hate him as much anymore.”
Jiang Huai privately felt that this was also a kind of understanding.
After all, if he still had any hatred towards Tang Pingjian, why would he be willing to treat him and help him find a doctor?
But unless you are the one involved, you will never be able to understand this complex emotion.
The assistant got another free meal of dog food. He was already able to put candy in his mouth without changing his expression.
Fortunately, he doesn’t criticize Mr. Lu and Young Master Jiang very much.
Otherwise, if it were those scary female demons in the company, they would appear calm on the surface, but their actual mental activities would be enough to set off fireworks.
It’s still the kind with special effects, big fireworks with bang bang bang.
Just as the assistant was preparing to retreat.
He saw Jiang Huai started to act coquettishly with Lu Wusui again, saying that he wanted to eat the candies sold at the airport.
That’s not the point.
——The key point is Lu Wusui’s expression!
Normally, they don’t even dare to invite Mr. Lu to team building. When someone in the company wants to submit a document, they want to check it eight hundred times first, for fear of making any mistakes and being scolded by Mr. Lu.
In the past, there was a female employee in the company who flirted with Lu Wusui, and Lu Wusui told her to go see an ophthalmologist.
There are also people who don’t work hard and take the opportunity to act coquettishly in front of him, and he will cross his legs and stare at them for a long time like he is looking at a monkey.
Such a Mr. Lu.
When faced with Young Master Jiang’s coquettish behavior, he lost all his reserve and smiled like a flower. However, he raised his head in a particularly arrogant manner and deliberately refused, hoping that Young Master Jiang would say a few more pleasant words to him.
Assistant: …There’s no need for the female employees in the company, he’ll take the first one to show his respect!
If he wasn’t afraid, he would really like to take a photo and show it to people in the company.
Mom, he saw a miracle!
However, although I can’t take pictures, I can still talk.
Some people had heard earlier that he was responsible for picking up Mr. Lu from the airport, and secretly sent him private messages, hoping that he could pass on more information.
Assistant in the group: [Ahem.]
Suddenly someone came up to ask: [What’s going on? Is our President Lu okay?]
[Oh my god, how can it be bad? This time he is traveling abroad with his wife, and they will be away for several months. I am so jealous, okay?]
[I am really envious. Why don’t I have such a big company?]
[What are you thinking about?]
The assistant interrupted them and smiled mysteriously: [I can only say that our CEO and his wife are wonderful.]
After getting on the plane, Jiang Huai bit his candy and read the latest comic book that Lu Wusui bought for him.
He hasn’t read this comic yet.
Unfortunately, because August and September are the peak seasons for students to start school, Lu Wusui was unable to book the entire business class seat.
Otherwise, Lu Wusui could tell him about it.
But it’s not bad now. Jiang Huai is content with what he has and can’t stop laughing while reading comics.
Lu Wusui: “…”
Is it really that beautiful?
Jiang Huai was almost sick of the candy in his mouth. He tried to spit it out several times but couldn’t find a suitable opportunity until Lu Wusui stretched out his hand in front of him.
Jiang Huai was stunned and looked at Lu Wusui.
Lu Wusui looked very calm, and said to him: “There are other flavors, do you want to try them?”
Jiang Huai was also a little confused, and asked blankly: “Why are you reaching out?”
”You’re not allowed to stretch out your hand?” Lu Wusui asked.
Before Jiang Huai understood what he meant, Lu Wusui came forward and quickly took the candy that was about to melt from his lips and put it back into his mouth.
His movements were so quick and covert that the other passengers did not notice.
Jiang Huai covered his mouth and his face turned red.
He protested quietly, “What if someone sees us?”
Lu Wusui didn’t care at all. He took out the remaining candies from his pocket and used his slender fingers to remove the glittering candy wrappers.
He found a pink one and fed it into Jiang Huai’s lips.
The pink fruit touched the bright red lips and quickly disappeared between the lips and teeth. The crystal color seemed to have a soft touch, lingering on Lu Wusui’s fingertips.
Lu Wusui placed his fingertips on his lips again.
Under Jiang Huai’s gaze, he gently licked his fingertips, then released them and laughed a few times, “Jiang Tiantian, why is your face so red?”
Jiang Huai was originally enjoying his candy.
But he didn’t understand why Lu Wusui would do that to eat such a candy.
When Lu Wusu came closer, he pushed Lu Wusui away and whispered, “Don’t get close to me, people will see us soon.”
”So what if they saw it?” Lu Wusui smiled, “You are not allowed to tease your wife?”
Jiang Huai: “…”
He pushed Lu Wusui again.
And Lu Wusui quickly stole a kiss on his cheek.
