Mr. Mu, stop bullying Professor Jian.

Before leaving get off work, Luo Jiushuai returned the thermos to Mu Qingyuan and told him to put the lunch directly at the nurses' table and asked him to stay away from the corridor.

Jian Zhinian is free to move around, so if he happens to come out and encounters them, he will bear the consequences himself.

Mu Qingyuan pursed his lips and said nothing, but he didn't leave the corridor either.

Meeting is fate, he won’t hide.

Unfortunately, after Jian Zhinian got the computer, he used the ward as his office, looking up documents and sorting out data. Not to mention that he didn't leave the ward, even when Mu Qingyuan "peeked" at the door from time to time, Jian Zhinian didn't even turn his head back, his concentration was amazing.

Mu Qingyuan was anxious, but he didn't dare to go in to stop them, so he could only go to the nurse's desk to "complain". After doing this many times, the young nurse became impatient.

"Are you annoying? You have to take care of your own family members. There are so many patients every day. How can I take care of such private matters?"

Mu Qingyuan was speechless.

That evening, when Luo Jiushuai came to work, Mu Qingyuan had already placed dinner on his desk.

"I brought an extra portion of soup..."

Luo Jiushuai raised his eyebrows at him, snorted coldly, and stood up with his bag.

Mu Qingyuan's expression was a little stiff, and he said, "I want to meet him. Please help me say something good about him later."

Luo Jiushuai rolled his eyes at him and sneered, "You think you can buy me off with just a bowl of soup? How can you be so idealistic? I drank too much water today, so I won't drink the soup!"

Mu Qingyuan was upset, but he had to ask for help after all, so he softened his tone and said, "He has been working in the ward all day. If you can stop him, I have nothing to say."

"What?" Luo Jiushuai suddenly rushed to Ward 306.

So much so that Jian Zhinian didn't even have time to hide his computer.

"Jian Zhinian!! Are you trying to piss me off to death?" Luo Jiushuai was furious.

Jian Zhinian felt guilty and quickly stuffed the computer into the quilt, saying, "You made me, a healthy person, stay in the hospital. This is unreasonable and too boring! I just turned on the computer to kill time..."

"Oh! In good health? If you have the guts, don't faint when you see Mu Qingyuan!"

Luo Jiushuai took the laptop from the quilt and as expected, he saw Jian Zhinian's face change and he looked much more depressed.

"Why did you mention him?"

Jian Zhinian turned around and walked to the window and stood there. Xicheng Hospital was in the western district of H City. The wards were not high up and the windows were blocked by buildings, so there was nothing to see.

Luo Jiushuai opened the thermos buckets one by one and brought barley and red date porridge, steamed pork ribs, blanched broccoli, winter melon, wolfberry and old duck soup, and also washed cherries and grapes.

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Come and eat."

Jian Zhinian stood for a moment, calmed himself down, finished his meal, and packed up the thermos bucket. Instead of handing it to Luo Jiushuai, he walked to the door.

Mu Qingyuan's tall body walked back home like an abandoned puppy. He stood at the door, looking at his owner's expression, not daring to go in.

"Zhizhi, are you willing to see me?"

Jian Zhinian didn't want to disturb others, so he said to him, "Come in and talk."

Luo Jiushuai's eyes quickly swept between the two of them, and he left quietly, closing the door for them.

Jian Zhinian sat down on the small sofa. Seeing Mu Qingyuan standing in front of him at a loss, he pointed to a lounge chair in the distance and said, "Sit down."

Mu Qingyuan sat down obediently, with his feet together, like a student being interviewed.

Jian Zhinian's face was calm and gentle, without a trace of impatience or disgust, as quiet as water.

He spoke, seeming to have been thinking for a long time.

"It's an honor to meet you, whether it's Mu Xingchen when he was young or Mu Qingyuan now, thank you for giving me unforgettable memories. If it weren't for you, I'm not sure if I would have experienced these in my life."

"I waited for a whole day on the seventh day of the first lunar month, and only then did I realize how sad it is to not be able to wait for the person you want to wait for. I'm sorry for making you wait for me like that."

"Qingyuan, no matter why you couldn't come that day, I don't blame you, and you shouldn't feel guilty about it. It's just that the time has come to separate."

"Last year I left everything behind to go to S City. It was just a vacation for me after all. After the vacation, I have to return to normal.

What Auntie said the other day was very right. We will eventually have our own lives. If you live a good life, I will wish you well. If you live a bad life, I will not pity you. Whether I live a good life or a bad life in the future, it has nothing to do with you. Do you understand?"

"The food you cooked is not tasty. I don't want to eat it anymore. So, don't come again. If you let me go, don't bother me anymore. Don't disturb my life anymore. Don't force me to say hurtful things to you."

When saying these words, Jian Zhinian's eyes were calm, and he looked directly at Mu Qingyuan without the slightest avoidance.

Mu Qingyuan's heart fell to the bottom. When he was pursuing Jian Zhinian, he would be annoyed and angry and would drive him away. He had emotions of joy, anger, likes and dislikes; but now, Jian Zhinian could look at him so calmly.

It was as if I had let it go completely, as if I was dealing with a stranger, without any sadness or joy.

Mu Qingyuan's face turned blue and he had some difficulty breathing. He tried his best to suppress the strangeness in his body and his lips trembled slightly.

"You said the right to break up is mine." Mu Qingyuan insisted stubbornly.

Jian Zhinian naturally knew what he was talking about, and said calmly: "As far as I know, the shares I gave you have never been processed, so the original promise is invalid."

"Since the promise is invalid, the contract is not invalid!"

Contract? A sugar daddy contract...

Jian Zhinian's eyes suddenly trembled, and he said with a sad heart, "Mu Qingyuan, what's the point of you insisting now? If you must use this to coerce me, I will accept the one-year deadline! But I, I really can't go back to that kind of relationship..."

"I won't force you to do anything, but at least don't push me away within the fifty-six days." Mu Qingyuan pleaded.

The good complexion that Jian Zhinian had managed to build up over the past two days disappeared completely. He gritted his teeth and nodded, saying, "I hope you keep your word!"

"Zhizhi, I will never lie to you." Mu Qingyuan promised.

Jian Zhinian looked tired and said, "I want to be alone for a while now, is that ok?"

Mu Qingyuan stood up and whispered, "Can I bring the food over tomorrow? I won't cook it. I've hired a nutritionist, so it won't be bad."

Jian Zhinian's gaze fell on Mu Qingyuan's hand. There was a band-aid rolled up on his left index finger, and there were slight burns on the back of his hand.

"up to you."

Mu Qingyuan left, and Luo Jiushuai walked in cautiously a moment later.

Jian Zhinian felt a little tired, so he lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

Luo Jiushuai whispered, "I'm sorry, Zhinian."

Jian Zhinian opened his eyes, somewhat confused.

Luo Jiushuai apologized: "Zhi Nian, I actually hate him...but I want you to be happy..."

Jian Zhinian understood, smiled and said, "It's okay, he always has his own way, it has nothing to do with you, do you still need an IV at night?"

Luo Jiushuai shook his head, "No need, I'll lose all the money during the day."

"Then I'll go to bed early today."

"Ah."

Luo Jiushuai closed the door and did not expose Jian Zhinian's weakness...
