miss me

Early the next morning, Xia Xinghe received a reply from Bai Qingzhou.

[Bo: Good. ]

[Bai: [Transfer]]

[Bo: The first month. ]

Xia Xinghe said earlier that he didn't want wages, but Bai Qingzhou still gave it, not for nothing, Xia Xinghe didn't refuse any more, he ordered to pick it up openly, clicked to open it, scared, two thousand.

Part-time workers are paid according to the number of times. Bai Qingzhou works one night shift every three days. Under normal circumstances, he only goes there ten times a month. Ten times are two thousand, and one time is two hundred. Bai Qingzhou paid the first month's salary first. That is 2000 yuan.

Although it wasn't a lot of money, it wasn't as good as Xia Xinghe's income from writing articles, but he could earn some pocket money while teasing the dog. Xia Xinghe felt that the business was not a loss, and convinced himself in his heart.

[Xiao Zhuzi: Thank you boss. ]

[Little Bamboo: How is the inspection of Bamboo?Is it okay? ]

It still feels a bit weird to be called Zhuzi on this WeChat, but Xia Xinghe is best at self-persuasion, and he quickly thought about it.

The left and right are just the same name, so what if they scold him, didn't Bai Qingzhou somehow learn how to bark like a dog in the beginning, there is not much difference.

After thinking about it this time, Bai Qingzhou quickly responded to the news.

[Bai: A little bit of skin trauma, but no bone damage. The doctor said that half a month of rest will be enough. ]

[Pak: [picture] [picture] [picture]]

Bai Qingzhou sent the film for Zhuzi and the doctor's report. Xia Xinghe couldn't understand it, but he believed in Bai Qingzhou's ability. Seeing that he said nothing was wrong, he was relieved and replied "OK".

Bai Qingzhou took pictures and sent him the location of dog food, leashes, toys at home, and the worksheet that was also issued to the previous hourly worker. He didn't mention the meeting at all. Xia Xinghe kept them all, and thought it was good. .Every time the two of them meet, they seem to be awkward for a while, so it's better to just be neither salty nor bland.

[Little Bamboo: OK! ]

[Little Bamboo: Contact me if you need anything. ]

If you have something to contact, it means that most of the time you don't need to contact.Xia Xinghe visited regularly according to the schedule given by Bai Qingzhou, and sure enough, he never had a face-to-face meeting with him.

Zhuzi was very obedient and obedient. After being injured, he was even more clingy than before. On the first day, he groaned and rubbed against Xia Xinghe's body, looking so wronged that Xia Xinghe's heart almost melted.

The part-time worker before was very heavy-handed. Although he didn't hurt any bones, he also had several blood marks, hurt his muscles, and his entire hind leg was swollen.Of course Bamboo knows it hurts. It has been lying in the nest for a few days without moving, and then it got better. It will move around in a small area every day, but never run far.

Day after day, two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.

From late autumn to winter, the clothes on my body gradually became thicker, and the bald part of the bamboo's hind legs also grew white fluff again, covering the skin with a soft layer. The previous wounds and redness were finally completely gone. Disappear.

Perhaps bamboo really has some kind of magical power. During the half month with it, Xia Xinghe was particularly full of inspiration. He could type words without any effort at all. After he opened a new article two days ago, the feedback from readers was also very positive. Yes, many people said, "This is the first time I've seen this kind of theme, but it's surprisingly interesting."Xia Xinghe replied "Thank you, I will continue to work hard", and he was also quietly happy in his heart.

He still rarely met with Bai Qingzhou, and occasionally passed by each other. The news on WeChat was still there, and there was no further progress.Daily life should be so ordinary, until one day later, Xia Xinghe suddenly discovered that the bamboo seemed to be somewhat abnormal.

The recovery ability of bamboo is very strong, and the injury on the hind leg healed quickly. Except for the hair that has not grown fully, it is no different from the normal side, but it still walks on the same slope as before.

At first, Xia Xinghe thought that the injury might not be fully healed yet, and it would heal in a few days, but another week passed, and the hair on Bamboo's hind leg grew a lot, about as long as the palm of his hand, but it was still the same. Limping, even if Xia Xinghe teases it with his favorite little Frisbee, it still doesn't want to chase and run.

Xia Xinghe touched its hind legs more than once, and didn't feel anything unusual, but he also knew that dragging it every day was not an option, so he finally told Bai Qingzhou about it, and said to him: "You'd better Take the bamboo to see again."

Bai Qingzhou was very concerned about bamboo, and he also vaguely noticed that something was wrong when it walked. After Xia Xinghe finished speaking, he took it to the pet hospital the next day, and the results of the examination came out very quickly: the wound on Zhuzhu's leg had healed up. I have been unable to walk normally because of the emergency response and resistance in my heart.

Although this kind of situation is rare, it has also happened to other pets. The doctor and Bai Qingzhou agreed to formulate a rehabilitation training plan for Zhuzhu to help it exercise its leg muscles, especially to make it overcome psychological fear.

Planning needs to be done every day, and Bai Qingzhou obviously doesn't have the time and energy, so the task falls on Xia Xinghe.

Xia Xinghe was thinking about Zhuzhu's injury, and he had plenty of time, so he naturally didn't mind the extra work, so he agreed without much hesitation, but Bai Qingzhou politely thanked him several times, and doubled his salary .

It's good to settle accounts clearly.

The process of rehabilitation training is a bit complicated and needs to be taught by hand, so the two made an appointment to meet on the weekend, Bai Qingzhou will give a demonstration first, and Xia Xinghe will follow suit.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. On Saturday, Xia Xinghe dressed up specially. A knitted sweater was paired with a small waistcoat and small leather boots. It was the most popular outfit at the moment.

He stepped into Bai Qingzhou's house confidently, wanting to show his proud side, but Bai Qingzhou attracted his attention the first time he entered the door.

Different from Xia Xinghe's delicate and cute, Bai Qingzhou's facial features are hard, his eyebrows are like distant mountains, and his body proportions are also good. He looks like a clothes hanger for walking, and he can hold up any clothes he wears.Wearing simple casual clothes on her body, her hair is slightly scratched, which is more eye-catching than those big names.

Xia Xinghe really liked Bai Qingzhou's looks, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen in love with him at first sight.

At this moment, I couldn't help sneaking a few glances at him. I forgot to mention the original purpose, and even blushed a little. Bai Qingzhou glanced at him lightly, and asked him, "What's the matter?" He was like a dream Waking up for the first time, she calmed down, shook her head and said, "No."

Heart Road: Did this person do it on purpose?Why are you dressed so nicely at home!

Naturally, Bai Qingzhou didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes drooped slightly, and he asked, "Start?"

"Yeah." Xia Xinghe cut off his thoughts and walked to the backyard with him.

Bamboo is still lying in his nest, his blue eyes are looking out of the railing, his back is still proud.Its ears were pricked up, and when it heard the footsteps of the two, it raised its head and let out a "bark", but it was not as vigorous as before, but limped towards the two of them, which seemed a bit desolate.

Xia Xinghe's heart softened, and he knelt down to touch its head. Bai Qingzhou stood aside and coughed lightly with no expression on his face. Xia Xinghe's hand froze suddenly, and silently withdrew it.

He looked at the bamboo helplessly, and thought, it's not that I don't want to hug you, it's just that the current objective conditions don't allow it.

Before coming to the backyard and seeing the bamboo, Bai Qingzhou specially told Xia Xinghe to only watch from the side and not go forward.After all, rehabilitation is a painful process. If the dog becomes soft-hearted as soon as it acts like a baby, it will definitely not achieve the expected effect.

"Bamboo, sit down."

Bai Qingzhou stood aside and gave the order indifferently.

Bamboo groaned and sat down on the grass as a conditioned reflex.

"Put the legs away."

"Head up."

Bamboo followed suit one by one.

Bai Qingzhou threw the Frisbee out and said to Zhuzi, "Pick it up."

The bamboo limped back to pick it up, but before it could stand still, Bai Qingzhou threw it out again.

"Run faster."

"Quicker."

Zhuzi gasped for breath, limped and ran back and forth with difficulty. Bai Qingzhou's expression was cold, and there was no emotion in his tone. Finally, Zhuzi carefully rubbed his trouser leg with the tip of his nose, his eyes were wet Yes, looking at him with begging eyes, obviously not wanting to run away anymore.

Bai Qingzhou's eyelids drooped slightly, he was silent for a moment, and then threw the Frisbee out again.

"Wang Wang!"

The bamboo hummed and refused to move, while Bai Qingzhou still looked at it coldly. Under the tension between the two, Xia Xinghe sighed helplessly, took two steps forward, half-kneeled on the ground, and stroked the bamboo's back .

"Ow~"

Bamboo's voice immediately changed its tone, endless grievances to say yes, wishing the whole animal would huddle into Xia Xinghe's arms, and was unwilling to look up at Bai Qingzhou.

Xia Xinghe patted him on the head, and looked at Bai Qingzhou with some dissatisfaction: "You are too fierce to it."

Bai Qingzhou frowned slightly, and slowly walked to the side of one person and one dog: "I'm doing it for his own good."

"I know," Xia Xinghe said while protecting the bamboo, "but does it know? Have you told it? You teach it with such a cold face, how does it know whether you are cruel to it or nice to it?"

Bai Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then said quietly: "It doesn't understand these things."

The indifferent tone suddenly aroused Xia Xinghe's anger: "How do you know it doesn't understand? Have you expressed it to it?"

"..."

What responded to him was Bai Qingzhou's silence.

So Xia Xinghe became even more angry, and couldn't help but think of the state of the two of them getting along before.

He opened his mouth a little aggrieved, saying that Zhuzhu was also talking about himself: "Yes, even if you are really good to him, does Bamboo have no emotions of its own? You don't tell it anything and you want it to understand you, understand you, Trusting you wholeheartedly, this is too overbearing."

Bai Qingzhou has always been like this, indifferent and independent, hiding everything in his heart, never sharing it with him, as if separated by frosted glass, people can't see through his heart.

Xia Xinghe occasionally thinks that maybe Bai Qingzhou liked him, and there are many sweet memories between them.But probably not liking it enough, he never opened his heart to him.

He thought that maybe Bai Qingzhou just regarded him as an interesting little animal, like a bamboo, and teased him a few times when he liked it, but he didn't put him in an equal position, so he didn't feel the need to explain it to him so clearly .

"...forget it," Xia Xinghe rubbed Zhuzi's fluffy head again, and sighed, "Anyway, you're always like this, so I can't talk to you, you..."

"Then teach me."

Bai Qingzhou interrupted him suddenly.

"Xia Xinghe," Bai Qingzhou looked down at him, his light brown eyes moved slightly, and said, "Teach me, how to express it?"
