CH 53

Ye Cheng was stunned and said, “Okay, I’ll go over right away.”

Lu Xiao looked at him, “What’s wrong?”

He hung up the phone, showed an apologetic expression, and said, “I’m sorry, there is a temporary situation at the hospital, I have to go there.”

Although Lu Xiao was still unsure, he nodded sensibly.

Ye Cheng glanced at the time, it was only less than three o’clock.

He thought about it and said, “Why don’t you wait for me here first, and I’ll come back to you later.”

It’s always rude to leave someone alone halfway through a date.

“It’s troublesome to run around, I’ll go with you.” Lu Xiao suggested, “What if you need help.”

Ye Cheng smiled and said, “Let’s go together then.”

Lu Xiao casually put the papers in his bag, his eyes wandering, “By the way, can I keep that reward?”

Ye Cheng said meaningfully: “I’ll keep it for you until school starts, I’ll give it after you finish your homework.”

“Then I can definitely finish it. Do you believe it or not?” Lu Xiao was immediately happy.

“Farewell, don’t stay up late and die suddenly at a young age.” Ye Cheng smiled.

The two went to check out and came out half a meter apart, with no sign of what they had just done inside.

After arriving at the door of the hospital, Lu Xiao couldn’t help feeling a little guilty.

The thought of seeing Gao Qiulan later, and doing such a thing to her precious grandson, made him feel uncomfortable, as if he was sorry for her.

He stopped and said, “Go up, I’ll wait for you downstairs, call me if you need me.”

Ye Cheng could see that his skin was not thick enough, and he didn’t embarrass him, “Then you can find a coffee shop and sit for a while, I don’t think I need help.”

If you really find the right bone marrow, it shouldn’t take too much trouble.

After he left, Lu Xiao wandered boredly downstairs with his hands in his pockets.

When he walked to the clinic, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

He couldn’t believe it at first, and when he got close, he shouted in surprise, “Chen Zhen?”

The boy heard his voice, looked over, and said in surprise, “Lu Xiao!”

The two looked at each other in disbelief.

They hadn’t seen each other for more than half a year and looked at each other.

Chen Zhen seems to have grown a little taller, and his hair has been cut short, revealing a delicate facial contour, not as gloomy as before.

He was wearing an old gray padded jacket and held a stack of test sheets in his hand.

“Why are you here, is your family sick?” Lu Xiao asked.

When Chen Zhen spoke, he still whispered, “My grandfather has a tumor and needs to be hospitalized for surgery.”

His grandfather has always been in poor health, Lu Xiao knew it, he frowned and said, “Is it serious?”

“The doctor said it was benign.”

Lu Xiao looked at him and asked a little worriedly, “What about your surgery fee? If it’s not enough, I can lend you some.”

He really regarded Chen Zhen as a brother, so he spoke very directly and didn’t beat around the bush.

Chen Zhen was very moved, but he didn’t expect to contact him for more than half a year, so he just wanted to borrow his own money.

He hurriedly shook his head and said, “No, no, my dad gave me money, and I’m working part-time recently, so the surgery fee is enough.”

His parents are both working in other places, and they will give him some money every few days.

“That’s good,” Lu Xiao said after a moment of silence, “Where did you go? I can’t even contact you.”

Chen Zhen seemed to think of something about the No.13 high school, lowered his head and said, “I’m studying in Qingshan now, and I don’t have much contact with my former classmates.”

In order to get out of that shadow, he didn’t even dare to look for Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao has been to Qingshan several times, but the door of his house is closed.

“Well… take care of yourself, your grades are so good, you will definitely be admitted to the ideal university.” Lu Xiao didn’t know what to say.

He understood that Chen Zhen didn’t want to recall the days of No. 13 high School, so he didn’t ask him for a phone number or WeChat.

Chen Zhen hesitated a few times and lingered in place.

Lu Xiao looked at the window, “Are you waiting for the report?”

“Well, it is estimated that it will take half an hour.” Chen Zhen said.

Thinking that they might never see each other again, Lu Xiao said, “Let’s go out for a cup of coffee, I’m inviting you.”

There was a coffee shop in front of the hospital, and the two walked out.

Chen Zhen ordered a cup of hot American, and Lu Xiao suddenly thought of Ye Cheng and said to him, “You can try the bitter orange flavor, it’s delicious.”

“Oh, good.” Chen Zhen didn’t drink much coffee, and ordered bitter oranges.

Lu Xiao thought about bringing a cup to Ye Cheng later, but worried that he wouldn’t be able to sleep at night after drinking coffee.

He was thinking about whether to bring it or not, when Chen Zhen asked tentatively, “How is Aunt Meng recently, is her health okay?”

“It’s okay, as long as my dad doesn’t come back, she’ll be fine.” Lu Xiao took a sip of the latte, thinking how unpleasant it was, how could Ye Cheng liked to drink this stuff.

Chen Zhen said with emotion: “I haven’t seen her for a long time. More than ten years later, we have to go to university.”

When Lu Xiao first saw him, he looked like he was only six or seven years old.

At that time, he was bullied by a group of wild children, and Lu Xiao was scolded by Meng Li, who was sick.

When he saw someone fighting, he jumped up to help, and then he got to know him.

“Yeah, it’s been ten years.” Lu Xiao smiled.

Chen Zhen looked at him, “I think you have changed a lot during this time, I almost don’t know you anymore.”

“Oh? What?” Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows.

Chen Zhen hesitated: “I feel like you are not as rushed as before, and I almost can’t recognize you.”

Lu Xiao laughed and scolded: “Fuck, you just say that I have become gentler, that’s because you didn’t see me beating people.”

Chen Zhen finally showed his first smile since meeting, “This is you, right? It hasn’t changed.”

They chatted about trivial matters, and Lu Xiao’s phone vibrated.

He opened WeChat and saw a message from Ye Cheng: [Where are you? 】

Lu Xiao hurriedly replied: [In the coffee shop, I’ll go look for you. 】

Ye Cheng: [I’ll go find you, I’ll just bring them something to eat. 】

Lu Xiao: [Okay, I’m by the window, or if you call me I’ll pick you up. 】

Ye Cheng: [I’m not a lunatic = =]

Lu Xiao: [Hey, of course you are not, Our Cheng is the smartest. 】

Chen Zhen saw that his face was full of smiles, his fingers moved quickly, and he realized something in a trance.

Until his phone slid down and caught a glimpse of the note, “Baby Cheng Cheng”.

He coughed and said, “Are you in love?”

Lu Xiao glanced at him while he was busy, and admitted it generously, “Yes.”

“Is it from your school?” Chen Zhen was shocked. He didn’t expect that he would fall in love. Before so many people chased him, he was indifferent.

Lu Xiao said mysteriously, “Wait for him to come, but you have to be prepared.”

“what?”

Just then, the wind chime at the door rang.

Lu Xiao turned around and waved: “Ye Cheng, here.”

Chen Zhen looked at the door, a tall and thin boy came over, his eyes widened immediately.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao is not only in love, but also in love with a boy.

It wasn’t until the man walked in front of him that he realized how good-looking he was, his cold and clear eyes glanced at him, and the man sat down beside Lu Xiao.

Ye Cheng saw them talking and laughing from afar, and asked casually, “Is this your friend?”

“He is Chen Zhen.” Lu Xiao introduced, “Chen Zhen, this is Ye Cheng.”

Chen Zhen nodded timidly to him and said, “Hello.”

“Hello.” Ye Cheng greeted him indifferently.

For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Maybe it’s because he have heard about this person from someone else, maybe because this person and Lu Xiao have a past that he doesn’t know about.

Maybe it was because he felt that Lu Xiao had lied to him. Chen Zhen was obviously good-looking, but Lu Xiao said it was ordinary.

“What are you talking about?” Ye Cheng asked.

He picked up the cup in front of Lu Xiao and took a sip.

Fuck, it’s all sugar again, it’s hard to drink.

But he still swallowed hard.

Lu Xiao has a keen insight into something, Ye Cheng is unlikely to deliberately appear to be very close to him in front of outsiders, unless…he is jealous.

He held back his smile and wanted to confirm this, and said deliberately, “It’s nothing, it’s just something from my childhood.”

“Have you known each other since you were young?” Ye Cheng narrowed his eyes.

He just knew that they met in Qingshan, but he didn’t expect that they were still childhood friends.

Lu Xiao couldn’t hold back any longer, and his voice was trembling: “Yeah, we have known each other since we were six years old.”

Ye Cheng’s eyes were like two arrows, and they shot at Chen Zhen.

Chen Zhen didn’t expect such a beautiful person to be so scary when staring at people.

He stammered, “Ah, yes, yes… We met at the age of six.”

Ye Cheng’s face turned cold. Lu Xiao was afraid of angering him, so he hurriedly accepted it and asked, “How is Ye Qiaoqiao? Did that person agree to the transplant?”

Ye Cheng ignored him, spread out his hands and said angrily, “Bring your phone.”

“What are you doing?” Lu Xiao asked as he put the phone in his hand.

Ye Cheng opened the applet and said stubbornly: “Order something, bring it up and give them a drink.”

[T/N; They use their phone to pay in China]

Lu Xiao’s shoulders shook up and down, and he couldn’t bear to laugh anymore.

Help, how can he be so cute?

Deliberately taking his mobile phone to order, are you taking an oath of sovereignty, hahahaha.

Chen Zhen looked at them in confusion, carefully picked up his coffee and took a few sips.

Ye Cheng smelled a bitter orange, and his face became more and more stinky.

He threw the phone at Lu Xiao and instructed, “Wait here, then take it and bring it up.”

“I’ll follow your orders.” Lu Xiao thought Ye Cheng being mad at him and ordering him arrogantly was cute. Please speak in this tone more in the future.

Ye Cheng left them and Lu Xiao finally burst out laughing, causing everyone beside him to look over.

Chen Zhen looked at him like a monster, “Is your boyfriend angry? Why are you still laughing?”

Lu Xiao laughed so much that his mouth cracked, he waved his hand and said, “You don’t understand.”

Chen Zhen really didn’t understand, he got up and said, “I should go get the report, and I have to send it to the attending doctor.”

“Go.” Lu Xiao wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and said.

“Thank you for your coffee.” Chen Zhen shook his head.

In fact, he admires Lu Xiao a lot of the time, because he has the courage that he does not have.

If he likes a boy, he would never dare to speak out like Lu Xiao.

After Chen Zhen got the report, he walked along the aisle to the elevator.

Seeing that the elevator door was about to close, he shouted, “Wait.”

There was a man standing inside, and he heard his voice and pushed the elevator open.

“Thank you!” Chen Zhen ran in and said breathlessly.

Then he looked up and saw Ye Cheng.

Chen Zhen: “…”

Ye Cheng: “…”
