Chapter 10: Off the cuff, "Baby."
Li Xuan pushes Su Xingchuan away and flees.
The lips were still slightly numb.
He leaned against the wall of the elevator compartment, the whole person could not stop trembling, seven years ago he faced Su Xingchuan, who was still a straight man, he could also offer a kiss without fear, seven years later, he just wanted to escape.
Seven years really changes so much.
Xu Zhengdong had already arrived at the entrance of the old mansion, but was called back by Li Xuan with a phone call.
Twenty minutes later, Xu Zhengdong found a teary-eyed Li Xuan at the door of the Xinchen Mansion. He hurriedly got out of the car, walked up to Li Xuan, and leaned down to ask, "Xuan, what's going on?"
Obviously he heard kissing on the phone.
Very intense kissing sounds, which Xu Zhengdong has experience with.
He understood as soon as he heard it, so he hung up the phone with a sense of humor, and on the way he couldn't help but lament: I don't know where the pig came from, but he caught their little cabbage arching twice.
Li Xuan's eyes turned red as he cried again, but he didn't realize that the mirror had not been reunited. Xu Zhengdong helped him up, "Who bullied you?"
Li Xuan shook his head vigorously.
Li Xuan can't believe what he did, he kissed Su Xingchuan knowing that she had a partner.
If he had done such a thing seven years ago, he wouldn't have taken it too much to heart, but he wasn't the Li Xuan he was seven years ago. He knew how much his rudeness, childishness, and capriciousness could cause others trouble, so he would never do anything that affected others.
And now he's doing the most immoral thing of all.
Although Su Xingchuan forced him to do so, he did take the initiative later, and he hooked Su Xingchuan's tongue.
They'd kissed so many times before, Su Xingchuan must have known it was him taking the initiative.
He's going to look down on himself.
Li Xuan stayed in his seat without saying a word, Xu Zhengdong rubbed his hair painfully, and as he did so, Li Xuan suddenly asked, "Uncle, are all homosexuals born gay? Is there a possibility that he just likes someone, regardless of gender?"
Xu Zhengdong didn't encounter this situation, but still comforted Li Xuan: "It's possible."
Even my uncle, who has fought many battles, doesn't know.
It seems that the whole being broken by someone thing itself just doesn't exist, and even without Li Xuan, Su Xingchuan would have met Wang Xuan and Chen Xuan, and then belatedly discovered his orientation and liked boys.
Li Xuan is not at all unique to Su Xingchuan.
"I'm selfish." Li Xuan said with downcast eyes.
"How?"
Li Xuan wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes, looked out the car window at the people coming and going, and said, "I'm the one who broke up with him, and I was hoping that he wouldn't like someone else, and I'm the most selfish of them all, so it's no wonder he said that."
"Does he like someone else?"
Li Xuan nods.
Su Xingchuan has a favorite, and that person has lived in his house and has his own personal slippers.
When Su Xingchuan took him to stay in a hotel seven years ago, he used to say that he must buy a big house in the future.
At that time, Li Xuan was nestled in Su Xingchuan's arms, playing with his fingers, tilting his head at the words and innocently saying, "I have a house, my mom invested in a property for me, in Jiangwan No. 1."
Su Xingchuan would look grim when he heard this, hugging Li Xuan a little tighter and saying, "I know what I've given you is probably nowhere near what your parents have given you, but I'll still try."
"I don't want you to give me anything I can give you!"
Twenty-year-old Li Xuan only enjoys love, and can't understand Su Xingchuan's deep-seated inferiority complex. He wrapped his arms tightly around Su Xingchuan's neck and told Su Xingchuan how much he liked him, but Su Xingchuan just stroked Li Xuan's back and said softly, "When I buy a house, I'll decorate it the way you like it. I'll buy a house and decorate it just the way you like it, and write your name on the house book."
Li Xuan already has a lot of love, but Su Xingchuan still wants to give him more.
Li Xuan was like a beautiful Christmas tree to Su Xingchuan, who couldn't wait to hang presents on him.
Li Xuan didn't understand why Su Xingchuan was obsessed with the house, but he was happy nonetheless.
He thought it was the happiest thing to cuddle with Su Xingchuan in a warm room on a cold and windy winter day, thinking about the future cohabitation life.
Li Xuan occasionally vows, "Don't worry, I'll make good money too, I'll buy the furniture, I won't let you work hard alone."
Su Xingchuan laughed and teased him, "Dr. Li does eight surgeries a day to earn money to support me, OK?"
Li Xuan nodded seriously, "Yeah."
Later Su Xingchuan bought a house and Li Xuan became a doctor.
Obviously everything is going as expected.
But there's no going back.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan's tears slipped down again.
Xu Zhengdong was a bit puzzled, "If you liked it so much, why did you break up in the first place?"
Li Xuan shook her head and mumbled, "I didn't want to, I didn't want to break up with him."
Xu Zhengdong asked again, and Li Xuan kept his mouth shut.
Seeing Li Xuan's reluctance to speak, Xu Zhengdong asked, "Xuan, uncle will introduce you to someone, okay?"
"Don't."
"That boy is quite good, same age as you, quite handsome, good personality and people skills, works in an investment bank, do you want to meet him, uncle will help you to pull the strings-"
"No!"
Li Xuan thoroughly understood his feelings and said, "I don't want anything, no matter how good it is."
He's only twenty years old, Su Xingchuan.
Or at the age of twenty-seven, there is still only his Su Xingchuan in his heart.
.
Xie Liang received a call from Su Xingchuan in the early morning.
Su Xingchuan's voice was hoarse, "I may have a slight fever, I can't hold out, I have to trouble you to send me to the hospital."
Su Xingchuan is the one who lends a helping hand to others on weekdays, Xie Liang has something to give him a call, even if it is the middle of the night, Su Xingchuan will come over.
After six or seven years together, this is the first time Xie Liang has received a call for help from Su Xingchuan. Although he was in a daze, he quickly lifted up the covers and got out of bed, "It's okay, you wait for me."
When he drove to Xinchen Mansion, Su Xingchuan was already downstairs, wearing a mask and looking pale.
Xie Liang hurriedly helped him into the car.
"What's going on here?"
Su Xingchuan shook his head.
"It's not because of your ex-boyfriend, is it? I've noticed that you've changed a lot since you two reunited, and your emotional ups and downs are especially noticeable."
Su Xingchuan was caught in the center of his thoughts, but did not deny it, and gave a breathless "hmm".
Who but Li Xuan could upset him?
At three in the morning, Xie Liang took Su Xingchuan to the hospital.
Fever of thirty-nine degrees.
The cause was the cold, the fact that he sat alone in the open doorway for over an hour after Li Xuan left, and the fact that he had been weak from the pain of the incision for the past few days and couldn't sleep all night, and several factors combined to collapse the immune system.
Xie Liang remembered, "Doctor, he just had stone surgery a few days ago, will the incision become inflamed? Inflammation will also cause high fever, right?"
The doctor checked Su Xingchuan, "No inflammation."
Xie Liang put his heart down.
Su Xingchuan opened his eyes drowsily, "Trouble you, you go back, I'll lie down on this side by myself, just hang up the water."
"Why are you always so polite? It's okay."
Xie Liang drew a stool and sat down beside Su Xingchuan's bed, and couldn't help but spit out: "Recently, Lao Yan's temper is very strange, probably because he didn't get the project in Zhongjin, and he was played by Xu Zhengdong as a monkey, he is not happy in his heart, and he takes it out on us day after day, and I don't want to go to that broken class. "
"I don't want to follow Zhongjin's program."
Xie Liang was surprised, "Why? You've been busy for almost three months, and you've gnawed down such a difficult bone."
Su Xingchuan looked at the ceiling and smiled to himself, "Do you know who Li Xuan's current boyfriend is?"
"Who?"
Su Xingchuan turned his head, "Xu Zhengdong."
"What?" Xie Liang's eyes widened, "Zhongjin that Xu Zhengdong?"
"Which other Xu Zhengdong?"
Xie Liang infinite emotion: "No wonder ...... no wonder I have long heard that Xu Zhengdong is gay, young play especially flower, club regulars, the kind of flower reputation far and wide, he is now even like your ex-boyfriend this kind of clean and dry little beauty, really can not imagine. "
Halfway through Xie Liang's speech, he caught a glimpse of Su Xingchuan's hands clenching his fists violently, and he hurriedly got up to stop him: "Hey, hey, buddy, buddy, your body's important, don't exert yourself, you're almost bleeding back!"
Su Xingchuan calm down.
Xie Liang sighed, "What would you do if this was Xu Zhengdong?"
"What about?"
"Do you and your ex-boyfriend, ah, have any chance of getting back together?"
"You think I still like him?" Su Xingchuan gave a laugh, "Being dumped and still begging to go after him, am I that cheap?"
Xie Liang narrowed his eyes, "There is."
"......"
"It's only natural that Dr. Li's face," Xie Liang rubbed his chin and smiled evilly, "is also worth fighting over."
"I'm not going to argue."
As the night wore on and Su Xingchuan became sleepy, Xie Liang slept in the bed next door.
The next day Su Xingchuan quickly regained his energy after hanging up the water.
As he was getting ready to leave the hospital, he suddenly remembered, "It's the perfect day to get the indwelling tube out, I'm going to go hang out."
Xie Liang knowingly asked, "Whose number is it?"
Su Xingchuan's face was cold, "The main surgeon's number."
Xie Liang smiled softly, "Okay."
Today is Li Xuan's shift at the urology clinic.
Su Xingchuan hung up the number in a hurry, there were still two people waiting in front of him, Xie Liang made a phone call and came back, Su Xingchuan was about to get up when Xie Liang suddenly said, "I'll go in with you."
"Why?"
Xie Liang said with a smile, "As a patient's family member, isn't it normal to accompany the patient inside? I'll go in and piss him off. Besides, he has Xu Zhengdong, and you have me--"
Su Xingchuan looked at him with lowered eyebrows.
"It's like an even match." Xie Liang said confidently.
Su Xingchuan was speechless.
It's still room three. Su Xingchuan walks over and knocks on the door.
"Come in." Li Xuan's voice came out.
Su Xingchuan was just about to push the door in when Xie Liang rushed in front of him, tugged on his arm and grinned as he entered the clinic.
Li Xuan looked up and visibly froze when he saw them both.
Xie Liang was immediately addicted to drama and put on the posture of a patient's family member, placing his hand on Su Xingchuan's shoulder and intimately saying, "Dr. Li, our Xingchuan is coming here today to have his stitches removed."
"...... is unplugged." Su Xingchuan Correction.
Xie Liang snapped with a couple laughs, "Oh oh yeah, it's an extraction."
Su Xingchuan suddenly regretted telling Xie Liang about Li Xuan and Xu Zhengdong, it was really embarrassing.
Li Xuan did not sleep well last night, there are two groups of light green under the eyes, see Xie Liang pulling Su Xingchuan into the face is even worse to the extreme, Su Xingchuan saw his tense corners of the mouth.
Su Xingchuan thought, Li Xuan has really grown up.
Previously, Li Xuan would immediately show his emotions, no matter who the other party is, anger is anger, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction.
Now Li Xuan has also learned to be patient.
Instead of feeling relieved, Su Xingchuan felt heartbroken.
He'd rather Li Xuan never know anything.
Li Xuan puts on a mask and gloves, takes out the prepared medicine and cystoscope, and says to Su Xingchuan, "Lie down over there."
Su Xingchuan still had a fear of the pile of things on Li Xuan's hand, he coughed lightly and wanted to say a few words to regulate the atmosphere, but in the face of Li Xuan, he felt embarrassed, and thought it would be better not to do anything, and followed Li Xuan's instructions to lie down on the bed.
Xie Liang was messing around, "Dr. Li, how long will it take for him to resume his sex life after this surgery?"
Li Xuan pauses.
Su Xingchuan reflexively felt a moment of weakness, and hastily patted Xie Liang's sleeve to shut him up, but Xie Liang was oblivious, holding his hand and saying, "It's okay, it's okay, don't be nervous."
"......" Su Xingchuan cursed in his heart.
Li Xuan raised his eyelids and swept Xie Liang's hand, and when he lowered his eyes, he couldn't hide his despondency as he said, "About a month."
Xie Liang was still trying to talk, but Su Xingchuan couldn't stand it any longer and said, "You go out first."
Xie Liang let out an "Eh", "I'll stay here with you."
Su Xingchuan was about to speak when Li Xuan interrupted him coldly: "Don't move."
Su Xingchuan turned his head and locked eyes with Li Xuan.
Li Xuan coldly withdrew his gaze.
The charm of last night doesn't seem to have dissipated.
Su Xingchuan was first remorseful and weak, but looking at Li Xuan in a white coat is a bit of uniform temptation, he looked at the sliding knot in his throat, last night's images came flooding back, embrace, lips and tongues entwined, crumpled jacket and tightly pressed together the body ......
Su Xingchuan It's hard not to reminisce.
He thought to himself: last night he should have bitten Li Xuan's lips and left a mark for Xu Zhengdong to see.
The ambiguous atmosphere and the excitement of "cheating" are rising in the air, Su Xingchuan likes to see Li Xuan's face deliberately made up, he likes to see Li Xuan's mood change because of him, at least it shows that this relationship is not a one-man show for him alone.
Li Xuan is jealous, he can see that clearly.
But the pleasure didn't last long.
A moment later, a sharp pain came from beneath him.
The pain of removing the indwelling stent was even worse than removing the urinary catheter. Su Xingchuan gripped the side of the bed in pain, veins popping out on the back of his hand, and felt that Li Xuan had done it to death.
Why does it hurt so much?
He said dumbly, "Li Xuan, I admit I was wrong last night, but you can't take personal revenge."
Li Xuan glances at him and continues working.
Su Xingchuan's pain was so great that he looked at Li Xuan's face and blurted out, "Baby."
Li Xuan's eyes were slightly stunned.
That's what Su Xingchuan used to yell when he begged for forgiveness. Li Xuan was so jealous that he took it out on Su Xingchuan, and Su Xingchuan could not help but cry and laugh at him, so he had to say, "Baby, I was wrong.
Su Xingchuan also didn't expect that he would blurt out this title, and was a bit embarrassed for a while.
Just then, Xie Liang lifts the curtain and walks in, adding to the drama, "Baby? Xingchuan, you called for me?"
Su Xingchuan: "......"
Li Xuan sank his face, his hands intensified.
Su Xingchuan's forehead was covered in cold sweat, his lips turned white from the pain, he raised his hand shakily and pointed at Xie Liang: "Get out of here."
