In the silent place

Outside the ward, Jiang Ping was pacing back and forth from time to time while rubbing his hands.Wasn't that a little too much?If Zhan Zhao was scared out of his wits, not to mention that the fifth child would not let him go, he himself would have to regret it to death!This time the fifth brother must hate him...

Just as he was thinking, a female nurse walked out from the corner of the corridor. When he got closer, it was the girl who gave Zhan Zhao the injection just now.Jiang Ping nodded to her with a smile, the little nurse glanced at him, and walked into the ward with a cold face.Jiang Ping made fun of himself, sighed, and followed in.

Bai Yutang was lying next to Zhan Zhao's ear, and when he heard the door rang, he didn't turn his head back, and said coldly, "Fourth Brother, I didn't let you in..."

"I'm sorry to bother you."

When Bai Yutang heard that it wasn't Jiang Ping, he quickly lowered his head and wiped his face.

"Please let me go." The little nurse walked to the bed, put down the hospital gown, grabbed Zhan Zhao's wrist, and began to feel his pulse.

"Is he alright?" Bai Yutang stood aside and asked in a low voice.

The little nurse pondered for a while, let go of Zhan Zhao's wrist, and said, "Well, I'm fine for the time being." After speaking, she leaned over and was about to undress Zhan Zhao.

"Don't bother you, we'll just change it for him."

The little nurse raised her head, looked at Bai Yutang and then at Jiang Ping, her eyes were full of contempt and disbelief, she hesitated, and said, "Okay, just don't stimulate the patient's emotions again."

Jiang Ping stood aside for a long time. Hearing what the little nurse said, he felt ashamed, and hurriedly replied: "No, no, don't worry."

Seeing the sincerity of the two of them, the little nurse finally relaxed her stern face, shook her head, turned and walked out of the ward.Jiang Ping didn't want to stay and get in the way, so he scratched his head and said in a low voice, "I'll go out and make a phone call." After speaking, he also backed out.

Seeing him slipping faster than a loach, Bai Yutang didn't bother to pay attention.Looking down at Zhan Zhao on the bed, he saw that he had kept his head sideways and his eyes closed since just now, sighed, turned around and walked into the bathroom to get a basin of warm water.He put the hot towel on the edge of the basin, bent down and began to undress Zhan Zhao, but he just touched the button with his hand when he was gently pushed away by the other party.

"Cat, don't move around." Zhan Zhao didn't have any strength in that blow, but there was an invisible rejection.It made him feel sore and sore. "Just be honest this time, okay?"

There was reproach and resentment in his tone, but it revealed deep helplessness and pleading. Zhan Zhao heard it, and his heart ached like a knife.When he felt the opponent's fingers touching his skin again, he could no longer muster up the strength and willpower to resist anything.

As the clothes were untied bit by bit, Bai Yutang looked at the large areas of subcutaneous bleeding on the pale skin in front of him, covering almost his entire body like blood stasis, he gritted his teeth to hold back the tears Come.He wanted to wipe his body for him, and stood there holding the towel for a while, but he couldn't let it go.

"Does it hurt?" He asked hoarsely.

Zhan Zhao knows exactly what his body looks like.After so many years of persistence, the last thing he wants to face is this moment.

After a short silence, he replied slightly in the air. "It doesn't hurt."

Bai Yutang wiped it gently with a towel. "How about this? Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

Bai Yutang felt relieved, no matter what, this guy finally spoke.He bowed down and slowly wiped his body.Ever since he was hospitalized, Zhan Zhao was so skinny that he almost lost his shape. Looking at his thin legs, Bai Yutang's heart felt like it was being torn apart, and he was throbbing with pain.Although he has never been as strong as himself, he is well-proportioned and vigorous, but now he is so pale and haggard by the pain, it seems that the light of life will wither and go out at any time.Whenever he thought of this, he felt extremely frightened in his heart, wishing for a kind of energy that could extend the life of the person in front of him, even if he gave half of his own life to him, he would be willing.Suddenly a scar came into view, not big, but very conspicuous, in the middle of the calf where the skin is the thinnest, a small piece was sunken, with bruises around the edge.He couldn't help but reach out and stroked it gently.

Zhan Zhao's leg trembled slightly, Bai Yutang turned to look at him, and asked distressedly, "Is it still hurting?"

"No."

Thinking back then, he was like a wounded beast, wantonly venting the resentment in his heart, not only hurting him verbally, but also...he was very clear about how hard it was at that time.That kick, filled with anger, almost shattered everything between them.He couldn't imagine how this person spent the night after he left.

"Cat, I'm sorry..." he said with a choked voice. "I'm such a jerk, you can scold me."

Zhan Zhao didn't speak for a long time, Bai Yutang saw his chest rising and falling more and more violently, so he hurriedly approached him and said, "What's wrong?"

It's obviously all his fault, why is it this person who apologized? "It's my fault...it's all me." Zhan Zhao lay there with his head sideways, his eyelashes were black and moist, a drop of water in the corner of his eye gathered more and more light, and finally fell gently, drop by drop slipped across the bridge of the nose and hairline, quietly sinks into the pillow. "it's me..."

Bai Yutang looked at the pillow that had already been wet with tears at some point, and couldn't hold back anymore and hugged him. "Stop talking..." he said, tears rolling down his face. "Cat, we all have to be good from now on, don't hide from me anymore..."

Zhan Zhao couldn't say a word, the emotions accumulated in his heart for many years poured out like a flood breaking a bank, how many days and nights of thoughts seemed to have all turned into silent tears.At this moment, he realized more deeply that what he once wanted to give up was the most inseparable thing in his life.

When Jiang Dong and Jiang Ping entered the ward, Bai Yutang had just changed Zhan Zhao's clothes.He had never served anyone before, and he was sweating profusely after all this tossing, sitting on the wooden chair and panting for breath.Zhan Zhao's eyes hurt, and he wanted to open them to see, but he was afraid of scaring the other party, so he lay quietly on the bed, pursed his mouth and said nothing.

After saying hello to Bai Yutang, Jiang Dong walked to the head of the bed, looked down at his cousin, and immediately frowned. "Why aren't you wearing a blindfold?"

"I was in a panic, so I picked it up." Zhan Zhao hesitated.

There was a reddish circle around his eyes, and Jiang Dong believed it when he saw it, so he groaned, and took out a new blindfold from the plastic bag on the bedside table. "Put it on." He said, stretching the rubber band with his hand. "It's pretty loose."

"Ah."

Bai Yutang stood aside, watching Jiang Dong put on the blindfold for Zhan Zhao, turned to look at Jiang Ping, and waved his head, signaling him to go out and talk.The two left the ward and walked to the corner. Bai Yutang frowned and said, "Fourth brother, what are you thinking? You know he's not in good health, yet you still make such wild jokes with him!"

Although he had expected that the other party would say this, Jiang Ping still felt wronged in his heart. "Originally, I just wanted to scare him. Who knew he would react so strongly."

Bai Yutang was angry and helpless, leaning on the handle of the stairs, said in a deep voice, "His mother passed away in a car accident."

Jiang Ping was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head silently, never thinking that there was such a reason behind it. "Fifth, I..."

"Forget it, that's fine." Bai Yutang let out a long breath, and turned his head to look at the transparent window in the stairwell.He and Zhan Zhao will have a showdown sooner or later. Although the fourth brother's method this time is inappropriate, when he thinks of the cat's behavior at that time, he feels distressed and at the same time an indescribable feeling. "Fourth brother, you watch him for me first, I'll come back as soon as I go." After speaking, he turned around and ran downstairs.

Jiang Ping lay on the handrail of the stairs and shouted down, "Hey? Where are you going?"

"Go home." Bai Yutang replied without raising his head.

Jiang Ping watched his back gradually disappearing at the top of the stairs, shook his head, turned and walked back to the ward.

As the weather was getting hotter, Jiang Dong took out a bottle of mineral water from the small refrigerator, and leaned on the head of the accompanying bed, gulping it down.Before entering the door, Jiang Ping stopped him outside, saying that Bai Yutang and his cousin were chatting, so it seems that the two are talking about it?He turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao, wiped his mouth, and said, "Xiao Zhao, in fact, Young Master Bai is very kind to you. When you first entered the ICU, he stayed in the corridor for three whole nights."

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes, only feeling that his heart was very stuffy.So he knew it then...

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Dong scratched his head and said, "At that time, I punched him in the face..."

"Hit him? Why? Why hit him?"

Jiang Dong knew he was talking nonsense, and muttered, "He said that he had mentioned to you about saving the scene. When I heard it, I couldn't control it, so I just..."

"Cousin, I insisted on keeping it from him..."

"Well, brother knows. It was just that I couldn't turn this corner at the time. Now that I think about it, I'm sorry for him. Don't worry, it's just a fist. I'll let him hit me too..."

"That was not what I meant..."

Seeing that his cousin was in a hurry, Jiang Dong smiled, and said, "I know, isn't this kidding you." He said, holding his voice deliberately, shaking his head, and said politely, "Who has no faults? Mistakes can be corrected." It’s so good.” After speaking, he jumped off the bed and said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already apologized to your brother.”

Zhan Zhao let out a sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxed slowly.He hadn't recovered from a serious illness, and just now he had a lot of tossing, but now he felt sore muscles all over his body, and he was so exhausted that he didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

After a knock on the door, Jiang Ping pushed the door open and walked in.

"Fourth brother." Jiang Dong nodded in greeting. "Where's Young Master Bai?"

"He's going home and will be back later."

"Oh." Jiang Dong responded, put the mineral water bottle on the small square table in front of the window, took out his phone and started texting Gao Yue.

Jiang Ping walked to the bed, looked down at Zhan Zhao, and whispered, "Zhan Zhao, it was the fourth brother who was wrong just now, I shouldn't have joked with you like that."

"It's okay, fourth brother." Zhan Zhao said, turned slightly sideways, raised his arms to support the bed.

Jiang Ping hurriedly leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"When I think about it, I lean on it, and my head is about to lie flat."

He spoke softly, joking lightly, Jiang Ping looked at him intently, feeling both sore and warm in his heart. "I'll help you."

"it is good."

Jiang Dong on the side also came over to help after hearing the words. "Fourth brother, let me come."

Jiang Ping supported Zhan Zhao, looked down at the lifting handle on the side of the bed, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I really don't know how to make this bed."

"It's very simple." Jiang Dong bowed, shook the handle a few times, adjusted the head of the bed to a comfortable height, then took two cushions from the sofa and stuffed them on Zhan Zhao's back. "Is it a pain?"

Zhan Zhao leaned on the head of the bed, smiled slightly and said, "No, it's just right."

Jiang Dong turned his head to Jiang Ping and said, "Fourth brother, I'm going out to buy some takeaways, and later you and Young Master Bai will make do with it."

"No, no, no." Jiang Ping hurriedly waved his hand.

"Fourth brother, don't be polite." Zhan Zhao said softly from the side.

"Yes, fourth brother. You sit here for a while, and I'll be right back." Jiang Dong turned to look at his cousin after speaking. "Sleep when you're tired."

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Dong smiled and rubbed his head, then turned and walked out of the ward.

Jiang Ping sat in the wooden chair and asked with concern: "Zhan Zhao, what are you having for dinner?"

"I've eaten." Zhan Zhao replied.

Jiang Ping was taken aback, and when he suddenly remembered, Liu Rong was digging apple puree for him.He himself suffers from stomach problems all the time, and the pain is unspeakable. He can only eat liquid food to satisfy his hunger every day. Zhan Zhao has deep internal bleeding and gastric ulcer symptoms. It is estimated that he can only eat these for the time being.He thought about it, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, turned his head and said, "Don't worry, fourth brother, I just finished eating when you came. My aunt stares at me every day, and I eat and sleep every day. Sooner or later, she will make me fat."

Jiang Ping glanced at his thin wrist and smiled helplessly.Heart said: "If you really become fat, I don't know how many people will be happy." '

"Fourth brother, how is the business negotiation going on this business trip?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Ping suddenly became energetic. "Thanks to you, the negotiation is over."

"Really? Congratulations, fourth brother." Zhan Zhao was also happy for him. After all, this was the first time the other party signed a contract for the decoration of a large-scale commercial office building, and the significance was extraordinary.

"I didn't expect it to be so smooth. The other party is a straightforward person. After showing him the creative map, the contract was signed on the fourth day. Otherwise, I would have to float there for a few more days. By the way, I will buy it for you. I bought this book, but I forgot to bring it today, and I will bring it to you another day."

Zhan Zhao thanked him and asked curiously, "What book is it?"

"I won't tell you yet, wait for your eyes to recover and see for yourself."

When Zhan Zhao heard this, he couldn't help laughing.The fourth brother is really good at keeping things secret, it made him feel itchy in his heart. "Fourth brother, my cousin said that he also asked you to decorate a new house, will you be busy then?"

"Don't worry, the job I'm taking on this time is quite big, and I'm going to recruit some people. In fact, I have already planned this for a long time, and this time it happens to be implemented, and I will do both commercial and home decoration."

"Okay, there won't be enough manpower at that time, I'll go to work for you."

When Jiang Ping heard this, he laughed very happily. "You're coming, I'll give you a vice president."

The two talked about the world as usual, but they didn't mention Bai Yutang at all, as if nothing happened just now.After we chatted, Jiang Ping saw that Zhan Zhao's complexion was pale and his spirit was obviously weak. He remembered that his joke just now almost caused him to faint and go into shock, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Zhan Zhao, you don't have to chat with me, just sleep for a while. Bar."

"It's okay, fourth brother, I'm not sleepy."

Looking at Zhan Zhao with a calm expression, Jiang Ping kept talking about Bai Yutang in his heart.Old five, old five, what kind of house are you returning to at the critical moment? Isn't your cat here...
