Chapter 11: Finds Su Xingchuan's arms and skillfully leans over.
Xie Liang rolled out of the way.
Su Xingchuan exhausted.
Li Xuan said in a cold voice, "Don't move, hold back a little longer."
As Su Xingchuan sucked in a breath of cold air, the tube was finally removed, and Su Xingchuan's grip on the bedside finally loosened, making him feel that his body no longer belonged to him.
"Okay." Li Xuan said.
After the initial pain, surgery, postoperative blood in the urine, the first removal of the urinary catheter, and the second visit to the indwelling tube, Su Xingchuan's journey to urology has finally come to a head.
Li Xuan put the tools aside.
Su Xingchuan asked, "You really didn't take it out on me?"
He sat up with a gasp, his hands still shaking slightly as he held onto the side of the bed, and took a long reprieve before he began to straighten his clothes.
Li Xuan turned his back to him to remove his gloves, his tone flat, "It will still hurt for a few days, the same precautions as before."
He's probably pissed off at Xie Liang.
Cold as an iceberg that won't melt for a thousand years.
Obviously used to be a stickler.
Su Xingchuan thought, if only time could be turned back, back to seven years ago, he stood in front of me, I just need to call out his name, he would turn and run towards me. He would jump into my arms and look up at me, with only me in his beautiful pupils. Li Xuan was so cute then, unlike now.
"Dr. Lee, have you had lunch yet?"
Su Xingchuan knowingly asked, and without waiting for Li Xuan to answer, he went on to ask, "Thanks to Dr. Li for taking care of me for a while, I'd like to treat Dr. Li to a casual dinner, I wonder if Dr. Li would be able to honor me with his presence?"
"No, I'll call the family in to help you."
He mentions family members in a very deliberate way.
As he passed by Su Xingchuan's side, Su Xingchuan suddenly reached out and pulled him between his legs.
Same as last night.
Li Xuan immediately struggled, trying to shake off Su Xingchuan's shackles, and Su Xingchuan whispered, "I'm in pain."
He didn't say whether it was physical pain or heartache.
Li Xuan's chest began to heave violently as he forced himself to say, "Your boyfriend is still outside."
"When did you become so good?"
Li Xuan turns his head and doesn't say anything.
Su Xingchuan laughed softly, "Didn't you used to love to engage in this kind of excitement? Weren't you very bold when you flirted with me?"
Li Xuan couldn't take Su Xingchuan's nasty flirtation, and he struggled to free himself from Su Xingchuan's shackles, sat back down at the table, calmed his breathing, and clicked on the next clinic number.
An electronic beep sounded outside.
[Please have urology 11 come to the third clinic.]
It reminds the next person, and it also reminds Su Xingchuan that at this moment, he is nothing more than a patient of Li Xuan's. Su Xingchuan doesn't want to hold up Li Xuan's work. Not wanting to delay Li Xuan's work, Su Xingchuan lingers at the door for a few seconds, trying to explain his relationship with Xie Liang, but eventually giving up.
No sooner had he come out than the next patient pushed his way in.
Xie Liang was still on the phone with his fiancée, and Su Xingchuan didn't want to disturb him, so he sat on the bench in front of the door, rubbing his temples.
It's exhausting.
What he wanted more than anything right now was a good night's sleep.
During the years of separation, Su Xingchuan felt that she had never had a really good night's sleep.
Suddenly, he remembered the first New Year's Day he spent with Li Xuan a long time ago, when he came out of the bathroom, Li Xuan was already asleep.
He got on the bed with a vapor, embraced Li Xuan from behind, and swept him into his arms. Li Xuan rolled over in a daze, hugged Su Xingchuan like a wombat, rested on Su Xingchuan's arm, found the most comfortable position, and soon fell asleep again. Outside the window, the fireworks were bright, the countdown to New Year's Eve was playing on the big screen, and when it was zero o'clock and zero minutes, he lowered his head and kissed Li Xuan's forehead, saying softly, "Baby, Happy New Year."
Never worried about losing sleep back then.
Xie Liang finished coaxing his fiancée and turned back to see Su Xingchuan, "It's over so soon? Can we go?"
Su Xingchuan gave him a blank look.
Xie Liang smiled cheekily, "I told you, you still think of him in your heart."
Su Xingchuan stood up, "Go back."
"I'll drop you off first, I have to accompany my wife to her parents' house at noon to discuss the wedding."
"Ready to tie the knot?"
"Yeah, after two years of procrastination I still can't help but be persuaded by Mom and Dad."
"Why don't you guys want to get married?"
"The main thing is that we don't want to have children, neither of us likes children and we don't want to take responsibility," Xie Liang waved his hand and sighed, "Don't mention it, let's just leave it at that, consider it as filial piety to our parents."
Su Xingchuan smiled helplessly.
"Are your parents still urging you to get married?" Xie Liang asked.
"And occasionally rushed."
"Your mom still won't believe you like men?"
Su Xingchuan leaned against the wall of the elevator compartment and shook her head, "But I don't think I like men either, I just ...... like him."
And that's not an exaggeration.
After breaking up with Li Xuan, Su Xingchuan was in a quandary. He couldn't tell his own orientation for a while. He lost interest in girls, but when he saw a boy - even one of the same type as Li Xuan - he wasn't interested.
When people ask him about his orientation, he can't even tell them, he just says vaguely: he hasn't met the right one.
In fact, he knows very well that there is no such thing as a suitable person, and that position in his heart is occupied by Li Xuan, permanently.
Three years ago his mother found in his room a bunch of Polaroid photos taken when he and Li Xuan were together, and they showed him and Li Xuan being overly intimate. When his mother first asked him if he liked men, he answered yes.
The mother was totally unconvinced and advised, "Don't be ridiculous, you just haven't met the girl you like yet, take your time."
Favorite Girls ......
When Su Xingchuan was in his teens, he didn't think he'd be sleeping with men ten years later. Li Xuan is so bad, just messing up his life like that and patting himself on the back.
Xie Liang lamented, "What's the point of acting as an infatuated man in this flowery world? Waste of time, waste of your face."
Su Xingchuan smiled and sighed.
"Then it's a waste."
.
After going back, Su Xingchuan made himself some porridge, ate a half-full meal and went to bed.
The boss called him and asked him about Zhongjin.
Su Xingchuan was now annoyed at hearing those two words, and suppressed his anger and said, "Mr. Yan, there's nothing going on over there in Zhongjin for the time being."
"Little Su, I realized that your work attitude has slipped badly after the surgery." Yan Tao's tone was always mean.
Su Xingchuan was annoyed, "Mr. Yan, Zhongjin is a difficult project, and you told me to try my best to get it, so it's fine if I can't. Now that I see a little hope, I'm being told what to do, as if this project is in your pocket. Now, when I see a little bit of hope, you start to tell me what to do, as if this project is in your pocket, as if I am negligent if I can't get Zhongjin, you don't even mention the time and energy I invested in the early stage, is this interesting?
Yan Tao was momentarily stunned by his words.
"What are you, what are you mad about?"
Xie Liang was right, Su Xingchuan had been a different person ever since he reunited with Li Xuan.
His calmness, restraint, and worldly sophistication have all disappeared because of Li Xuan's appearance, and in an instant it is as if he has gone back to his twenty-years-old rashness, when he had a clear distinction between love and hate, and was relaxed, and did not consider issues with profit as the only criterion.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Yan, my health is really bad lately, and I'm not in good spirits, so I'll be honest with you, I don't want to follow this Zhongjin project anymore, and I don't want to deal with Xu Zhengdong anymore."
Yan Tao almost shot up, furious: "Zhongjin is about to have a board meeting, and you're doing this to me now!"
Su Xingchuan The temples ache.
"Zhou Jing wants to do this project more than you do, that's just right, I'm more comfortable handing it over to him!"
Zhou is actually Su Xingchuan's biggest competitor in the company.
From the time Su Xingchuan started to contact Zhongjin, Zhou Jing has been making small moves behind the scenes, stirring up trouble, digging in, and blowing wind in Yan Tao's ear....... Su Xingchuan despises this kind of person, and doesn't want to waste his time on him, so he hasn't paid any attention to him. I don't want to waste my time on this kind of person, so I haven't paid any attention to him, but in the end, I let him pick up a leak.
He could already imagine Zhou Jing's face at this moment.
Forget it. Just give it to him.
Anyway, Su Xingchuan doesn't want to grovel in front of his love rival anymore.
He's young, capable, and not short of a meal.
Yan Tao snapped and hung up the phone, Su Xingchuan was happy to be clean, put down the phone, continue to catch up on sleep.
It's a shame sleep won't come.
Tossing and turning, I couldn't sleep, and I was parched.
Late at night, he couldn't resist sending a message to Li Xuan: [Dr. Li, I forgot when to go to my follow-up appointment].
It's purely a lack of words.
Li Xuan has been slow to respond.
Su Xingchuan is as jealous as a jealous man. Why hasn't he answered his messages? Is he with Xu Zhengdong?
On impulse, he made a call.
Soon the call was answered.
Su Xingchuan was about to speak when there was a noise on the other end of the line, like a bar, with music breaking in and out.
"Li Xuan?"
A male voice rang out, "Hello, this gentleman is drunk in our bar, can you come and get him?"
Li Xuan, at the bar, drunk.
Without thinking, Su Xingchuan immediately said, "Okay, please take care of him for a while, I'll go over now."
He asked the waiter for the address and drove there, anxious that Li Xuan might be in danger.
How can Li Xuan go to a place like a bar?
As soon as he got off the bus, he rushed into the bar and followed the directions given by the waiter to Li Xuan, who was cowering in the booth, sleeping.
In the hospital, Li Xuan is the unsmiling, strict and professional Dr. Li, and with the natural fear that patients have for doctors, Su Xingchuan always feels that Li Xuan has grown up and matured, and is not approachable. In this chaotic place, Li Xuan is curled up into a small one, covered with a wide white cotton coat, and still looks like a child.
He walked over and touched Li Xuan's face.
"Li Xuan?"
Li Xuan did not respond.
Su Xingchuan leaned in closer, rubbing his fingers over Li Xuan's earlobe like he used to wake him up, "Baby?"
Li Xuan's tightly locked brow suddenly loosened as he rubbed against Su Xingchuan's palm with an uncomfortable look, following the source of the heat to find Su Xingchuan's embrace and skillfully leaning over.
Su Xingchuan felt her heart stop a beat.
Something reset violently.
Su Xingchuan immediately embraced him.
But this is not a place to sleep, the alcohol stinks.
"Baby, wake up." He shook Li Xuan's arm.
Li Xuan didn't want to wake up, just as the music changed on stage, heavy metal riffs were blasting out of the sky, and people on the dance floor were screaming, scaring him so much that he went straight into Su Xingchuan's arms, exactly as he did back in the day.
Su Xingchuan liked Li Xuan's look of total dependence and defenselessness, and he picked Li Xuan up in his arms.
Some people looked at him and he didn't care.
The attendant accompanied him all the way to the car, opened the door for him, and Su Xingchuan carried Li Xuan to the car, then thanked the attendant.
A set of moves that flowed like water.
He visibly stiffened until he got into the car.
Seven years ago, not to mention the princess hug Li Xuan, even if it is on top of the hotel wall to play a few minutes is not a problem, but unfortunately Su Xingchuan now just after surgery and fever, the whole person is too weak, the pain came after the realization, Su Xingchuan in the car half a day to recover.
It's a mess. Luckily, Li Xuan was drunk.
Su Xingchuan felt a tinge of gratitude.
At this time Li Xuan grunted, Su Xingchuan immediately put his hand on his face, "What's wrong?"
Li Xuan is still grunting.
He's just a natural spooner, and he doesn't stop when he's drunk.
Su Xingchuan helped him fasten his seatbelt and said to himself, "You're solely responsible for causing me so much pain with your personal vendetta, Dr. Li."
Dr. Lee Jr. was sleeping soundly and didn't pay any attention to him.
Su Xingchuan pinched his face.
The night was dark, the pedestrians on the road were getting fewer and fewer, and in the late winter at the end of December, the wind was bitterly cold, and the trees along the street had only withered branches left.
Su Xingchuan didn't start the car right away, he just sat in the driver's seat and quietly watched Li Xuan.
Li Xuan's features haven't changed much from seven years ago, except that the baby fat on his cheeks is gone, his features are more clearly defined, and he looks a bit cooler, but he still looks like a kitten when he's asleep.
Beautiful Ragdoll cat, even scratching is cute.
Su Xingchuan can't get enough of it.
The time on the car's on-board screen read zero minutes to zero; it was time to get Li Xuan home.
Su Xingchuan started the car and drove in the direction of Xinchen Mansion.
How is it possible to send him home?
