Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Chapter 28 Just be a human being

The room was silent, and the sound of music could be heard.

She didn’t know if it was psychological or the suspension bridge effect, but He Lianzhou’s calls always startled her.

The aftermath of being frightened, the adrenaline rush, the tension that induced.

After a while, no one answered the call and the phone was automatically hung up.

I wish Xiaji’s heart will return to its original place.

Just pretend you didn’t see it.

She picked up a grape and put it in her mouth. The sweet and delicious flesh made her feel very comfortable.

Unexpectedly, one minute later, He Lianzhou called again.

Zhu Xia took a breath and answered the call with his fingertips.

However, as soon as she turned on the speakerphone, the call was disconnected.

"..."

Zhu Xia pursed her lips and called him back.

The call came through quickly.

"At home or in the hospital?" The man's voice fell vaguely, as if through a layer of foggy glass.

"At home." Zhu Xia held the phone to her ear with one hand and poked the bread slices with chopsticks in the other hand.

The sound of dripping rain lingered in his ears, and Zhu Xia looked out the window.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, but it was not raining.

She suddenly had a sudden inspiration -

He's not in the harbor?

Thinking of the chat page with only two messages, she asked, "Didn't you see my message?"

After asking, Zhu Xia immediately regretted it.

Why does it sound like she is complaining that he didn't reply to her message?

Zhu Xia tried to make amends: "It's no use leaving your coat here. I'll give it to you."

After she finished speaking, she waited for his answer.

The sound of rain in the receiver gradually became quieter.

It was very quiet.

Zhu Xia was listening attentively, when suddenly she heard a man's low laugh in her ears.

The low laugh penetrated the phone and spread out, like a sound wave that would never fade away, the lingering sound lingering in the ears.

She rubbed her ears uncomfortably, as if a feather had touched them.

The sound of rain disappeared completely, and his deep, magnetic voice rang out clearly.

"I'll go back tomorrow."

Sure enough, it’s not in the port area. Zhu Xia thought, and her heart leaped with joy at having guessed the answer correctly.

"What about the clothes..." she asked.

"Ah."

This means agreeing to let her return the clothes.

There was silence for a while, and the only sound on the phone was the other party's faint breathing.

Zhu Xia pressed the grapes on the plate with her fingertips and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

He didn't hang up, and asked her slowly, "Are you going to sleep?"

Zhu Xia looked at the plates of food in front of him and thought to himself, it was still early.

When the words came to his lips, he changed his mind and said, "It's late."

As if he had discovered her clumsy lie, he chuckled but did not expose her. He slowly uttered two words: "Good night."

I don’t know if it’s because the quality of the phone receiver is good or He Lianzhou’s voice is too pleasant, but when Zhu Xia listened to his voice, it was like he was hearing the top-notch voice of a voice actor who specialized in coaxing people to sleep.

After hanging up the phone, she saw a new message pop up on her phone.

This was He Lianzhou’s reply, just two words, concise and to the point.

"Can"

It fits his style.

Be frugal with words and don't be verbose.

WhatsApp can send updates like WeChat, but the updates will only be displayed for 24 hours.

Zhu Xia last posted an update two months ago.

He Lianzhou probably didn't see the content she posted on a whim.

"Water and fire don't coexist. Can fire put out water?"

Summer is like fire, and continent is like water.

It's not an obvious metaphor, but if He Lianzhou noticed it, he would definitely be able to see the hidden meaning behind it.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content and cleaning up simply, Zhu Xia curled up on the sofa like a salted fish and sent a few WeChat voice messages to Chairman Song.

She talked about the new and interesting things that happened to her recently and expressed her concern for her grandfather's health.

After sending several voice messages, she hesitated for a while and dialed Song Chengyu's phone number.

But it didn't work.

As expected.

She didn't care much.

I closed my eyes and rested for a while when my cell phone vibrated.

Zhu Xia took it and looked at it. It was You Feng asking her where the mooncake was.

She casually replied that it was still being processed in the factory, and You Feng asked her to send the factory over as well.

Zhu Xia replied: "Be a human being"

You Feng: "Do I need to be a human being?"

The arrogant tone overflowed from the phone screen.

No wonder after seven years of love, the girl still ran away.

When Zhu Xia and He Lianzhou broke up, the crazy You Feng put himself in the man's shoes and kept complaining about how hard-hearted women were, saying they could break up or divorce if they wanted to.

Crazy as hell.

Who would have thought that the arrogant You Feng was actually a resentful man behind the scenes.

Zhu Xia hinted that You Feng’s ex-girlfriend...or ex-wife, was Shang Xun’s twin sister.

They were in love on campus and did not break up after graduation, but got married instead.

Unfortunately, they didn't make it through the seven-year itch and eventually broke up.

Perhaps considering that the madman was alone, Zhu Xia was merciful and replied to him, saying that he was too anxious to eat the mooncake.

When in London, Zhu Xia often heard people talk about her and You Feng, saying that they were a couple, that she liked You Feng, or that You Feng liked her.

After all, there is no pure friendship between men and women.

The friendship between Zhu Xia and You Feng is indeed not pure.

You Feng boasted that he was older, so he treated her as a younger sister sometimes and as a daughter most of the time.

Zhu Xia himself was very resistant and said that he didn't have a father as useless as you.

She treated him like an old stray dog ​​on the street and often fed him delicious food.

After leaving London, Zhu Xia and You Feng contacted each other from time to time.

When they send messages to each other, they just send them and that's it, regardless of whether the other party replies or not.

Quite relaxed.

It's the same this time.

After sending the message, Zhu Xia sat down at his desk, turned on his computer and started checking his emails.

Unexpectedly, she received an internal complaint letter.

They complained that she abused her power, took away other doctors' operating rooms, and delayed the doctors' operations.

The reason was that a week ago, the hospital's operating rooms were full, with only one vacant operating room left. The patient was in critical condition, so she used it without hesitation.

As a result, a surgery that was supposed to be performed in that operating room thirty minutes later was postponed.

The patient of the postponed surgery was a prominent figure. He was so angry that he reported Zhu Xia together with the doctor.

As for Zhu Xia, in her previous hospital, someone once called her a surgical madman.

She will definitely have the surgery she wants.

No matter what the cost.

The principle for using the operating room is to meet urgent needs, rather than based on status or power.

Zhu Xia was used to it and was not worried.

there is always a solution to a problem.

The next day Zhu Xia had a rest. She was not worried about the letter of complaint.

Continue to sleep, eat and have fun.

In the evening, she was going to go shopping in the mall in Central and return her coat at the China Hong Kong Group.

When we got downstairs, Uncle Cai, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward and said with a gentlemanly smile, "Doctor Zhu, please follow me up."

Zhu Xia said, "Just give you the clothes. I won't go up."

"It would be better for Doctor Zhu to deliver the young master's things to him personally." Uncle Cai said modestly.

Knowing He Lianzhou's temper, Zhu Xia didn't want to embarrass him, so she nodded: "That's troublesome."

Uncle Cai took her to the top-floor office by elevator. Zhu Xia walked over and looked around calmly.

Clean and tidy, wealth is evident everywhere.
