his mermaid

***

Since early winter, the temperature has hovered between [-] degrees and [-] degrees.Although it's not cold, it's still much colder than summer, and if you don't pay attention, you will catch cold. In addition, the typhoon raged a while ago, and S City was also affected. Therefore, the private doctor brought an umbrella when he visited.

The last time he came was half a month ago for the last rehabilitation training for Yueguo.Everything in Yueguo is arranged by Mr. Jiang, and doctors will not contact Yueguo without authorization. Yueguo only knows his surname is Lu, but not his name.

As soon as you enter the house, you will be enveloped by the heating of the air conditioner in the villa. The temperature is comfortable, but it makes you feel a dull atmosphere.

The patient slumped on the sofa was wearing a thin turtleneck sweater with a blanket covering his lower body.There was a puppy lying on the body, which was injured like its owner. It lost one of its front legs, and the stump was wrapped with a bow tie. It can be seen that the owner is a careful person.They fell asleep as if preparing to enter hibernation.

Touching the pulse and observing for a few seconds, he asked Yaochen to bring the medicine box.In addition to large instruments, there are various small medical facilities and medicines at home, and Yaochen will also operate some of them.After measuring his body temperature, Yue Guo opened his eyes and moved.

"Yesterday when you notified me, your body temperature was 37.5 degrees. Now it's 38.2 degrees. How could it suddenly increase the fever?"

Doctor Lu said in embarrassment that Yueguo was only given temporary cold medicine last night, and he didn't expect it to get worse.Yue Guo is not a person with a strong physique, so he needs to pay more attention to precautions.He has already preconceived that the worsening of the cold is because he did not prescribe the right medicine.

"Yesterday I caught a cold in the shower, so he caught a cold." Yaochen couldn't see the waves in his eyes, but he said self-blaming words. He leaned over on the sofa and tested Yueguo's forehead with the temperature of his hands and lips respectively, "Sorry, no Should have spent so long in the bath."

He didn't say what happened last night, only hinted that they took a shower together.Yue Guo didn't even mention it, even the turtleneck sweater was used to cover up the scar on his neck.

Yue Guo nodded slightly, and then mouthed "I'm sorry", as if the cold was his own fault, and it caused trouble for Yaochen.In order to see a doctor with him at home, Yaochen didn't go to the company.

"It's not a big deal, but be careful, prepare for an infusion."

The cold gauge is removed from the sweater.

For such a small move, Yue Guo didn't dare to move in the slightest.If he showed sensitivity, Yaochen would definitely be displeased, and Yaochen was not very happy because he had a lot of conversations with Dr. Lu alone.Because Yaochen had been rough on him many times, he didn't dare to provoke him again.

Dr. Lu brought the health records and nutrition tables, as well as some recovery precautions.At the same time as the infusion, the heart rate and blood pressure were also measured, and the values ​​were normal.

He suddenly sighed, saying that Mr. Gao has become thinner recently, and he needs to get up and move around more. The courtyard of the villa is very large, so he can walk more.

Yueguo looked into Dr. Lu's eyes, and the doctor didn't seem to feel his anxiety.

Yaochen didn't equip him with a house key, he would lock the door when he went out, and even lock the floor-to-ceiling windows from the outside. His range of activities was only inside the house, and Yaochen would lock the study and warehouse.Housewives cook three meals a day and leave after washing the dishes.Not to mention going out, he can't even make casual phone calls, and now his phone is in Yaochen's hands.

In front of Dr. Lu, Yaochen hung up several calls.Yueguo had a hunch that it was Shijie who called. He didn't have many contacts, but he didn't even have the courage to ask. Moreover, if it wasn't for Shijie's call, how could Yaochen hang up? Personality, if you get blocked once, you have to try with another phone.

Is it because Shijie has something to say to him?Yue Guo was thinking dizzily.He actually wanted to see Shijie very much.Not only Shijie, but anyone, as long as it is not Yaochen's relatives, friends and subordinates, he wants to confide his recent troubles with his past friends, but for a while, he can't think of any friends who can tell his thoughts, because in the past days, His world revolves around his family and Shijie.

After the infusion, the doctor left quickly, and Yueguo fell into a deeper sleep, not even noticing when he was carried into the bedroom.

The fever started to improve a day later, Dr. Lu did not come again, and Yueguo switched to taking medicine for treatment.

After that day, Yaochen had less and less time to go home, and some days he didn't even go home at night.It's not hard to imagine, after all, this is just one of the houses in his family, and he occasionally goes to live with his mother, or to places that Yueguo doesn't know, his old apartment is still being cleaned, and sometimes he will go back, maybe Entertainment work, or find another new love.Rather than saying that he didn’t want to ask, it’s better to say that he had no chance to ask. After the mobile phone was confiscated, Yueguo could only use his home phone to communicate with him. Every time he had to move to the entrance to talk to him, it was extremely inconvenient, and the number of calls decreased. The time they can meet is when Yaochen returns home.Except for the housekeeper and Shu Yan who will come to learn the piano for two hours on Saturday afternoon, almost no one can communicate with Yue Guo, and the villa has become a small island isolated from the world.He kept practicing going upstairs and downstairs at home, not knowing when the relationship would end.The important thing is that he is at a loss for future arrangements. If he can find a job, he will have a chance to get rid of his current situation, but where would he be recruited for a person with limited mobility? I thought about it, his current mental state is not good, and his image is not good. Going out to teach children to play the piano may scare the children and not gain the trust of the parents.Unless a prosthetic is installed, it will be convenient for him to go out to work after he gets used to walking with the prosthetic, and he can hardly imagine how hard it is to work like a calf prosthetic.What's more, if this matter is to be finalized, it must be discussed with Yaochen first. Yaochen came back late recently, so he kept procrastinating.

Half a month later, Yueguo won a chance to go out for himself. It was not his initiative, but Shu Yan's parents who invited him to have lunch and thanked him for his care during this time.There is also the meaning of Yaochen's mother behind it, but Yueguo doesn't understand it, and the elders are in charge, so that they don't worry about being rejected.Only that day, Yaochen said that he would go home early and wait for him.

The family restaurant where the meal was ordered was in a newly built building last year, and the surrounding area was the commercial circle of the port in Xindong District, S City, and the consumption was expensive.The purpose of staying here is to make it convenient for Yueguo to go home, and there is also a private car to pick him up and drop him off. It can be seen that Shu Yan's family background is also well-off, which is reflected in all aspects.His father is Yaochen's mother's cousin. With this relationship, he will naturally have a share in the shares of the Shu family enterprise.

They knew that Yueguo was Yaochen's friend and now lived with Yaochen, so they didn't ask about further relationship.They had heard about Yueguo's disability for a long time, and it was because of this that they were more assured that Xiaoyan would study with him, not because of Yueguo's superb piano skills, but because of his special status. Impact.In the past, they used Aunt Shulan as an example to teach Xiao Yan that anyone who is treated unfairly by God has a chance to succeed, but that is too far away from Xiao Yan, and he would not listen to it.After Xiaoyan got in touch with Yueguo, he often said that the teacher was pitiful and kind, and his proud personality was restrained, which shows that Yueguo's influence on him has already been effective.Of course, none of their family would show such sympathy to their faces.

After having lunch together, Yueguo asked for some shopping in the surrounding area, and the driver promised to take him there.Without hesitation, he said the road where the piano shop was located.

***

When you hear the wind chimes, you know someone has entered the store.Xie Yun was surprised to find out that it was Yue Guo.Before coming to the counter, Yueguo asked her if she knew Shijie's contact information.The last time Xie Yunzong was chased by Shijie to find him, she thought Yuehui would be unhappy, but this time she offered to see Shijie, and the guilt in her heart dissipated immediately.

Xie Yun called Shijie on the spot and told him that Yueguo was at the piano store, and then said with a smile: "He happened to be fine at the company, so he said he would come right away."

Shijie started working in a record company last year as a sound effect processor, that is, post work.At the same time, I also take care of my own band. After entering the company, I gradually have the opportunity to release records and promote them.However, in recent years, the sales of various records have been dismal, and they have turned the market to the Internet.

Shijie came quickly, and he entered the backstage lounge, where Yue Guo was admiring the plants planted by Xie Yun.It would be nice if there were more flowers in the house, he thought.

Seeing Shijie, Yueguo raised his head and explained, "I lost my phone."

"Don't talk about it." Shijie quickly put down his backpack and threw it on the sofa, "He took your phone off, do you think I don't know?"

Yue Guo bowed his head and acquiesced to his statement.

"I have called you four or five times, and only the first one got through, and all the others were hung up." Shijie was very dissatisfied with this.

"What did you say on the first call?" Yue Guo asked.

"Let me stay away from you." The person omitted here is called Yaochen. "He said he was serious about you." Shijie touched his nose, because these were not Yaochen's original words.

During the phone call at that time, when he asked Jiang Yaochen what he would do in the future, Yaochen replied that he planned to settle and get married abroad as soon as possible, but he hadn't told Yue Guo yet.Therefore, it was inconvenient for Shijie to ask Yue Guo for confirmation, because he was afraid that he had no intention of conveying this news to Yue Guo, and at the same time he felt uncomfortable. Jiang Yaochen could easily obtain things that he dared not think about lightly.

"Really..." Yue Guo sighed questioningly.Yaochen has been very busy recently, but he doesn't seem to be serious about it.

"Even if it's serious, you shouldn't take your mobile phone away. Is it necessary to care about it when you're in love?"

"It's okay, that's the mobile phone he bought."

"Isn't it inconvenient that you can't use the phone now?"

"A little bit."

"Do you go out often?"

Yue Guo shook his head and said: "Today is a rare opportunity. Usually he doesn't let me go out casually. I came here on my own decision. Don't tell others."

"Ah, why did you think of coming to the piano shop?"

Judging from Yue Guo's tone, Jiang Yaochen restricted the scope of Yue Guo's activities.They can only contact if they come here, what is the difference between this and imprisonment?Shijie felt worthless for him.

"I want to find a job and see if the boss can help me... It doesn't matter if I can't. I just remembered that you called me, so I want to see you by the way."

"How are you going to work like this?" Shijie muttered, "There is indeed something I want to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Yue Guo looked up at him.

"I don't know if it's appropriate to say now, after all, it's too late."

"What's the matter?" Yue Guo asked again.

Shijie hesitated for a while, and then lit a cigarette.

"I think the car accident you experienced was related to Jiang Yaochen."

What does it mean?Yue Guo stared round his eyes.

Shijie sat down to consolidate his thoughts, and told about Chu Rui's past work in Yaochen's house.More than 20 years have passed, and it is difficult to find out the details, and the one-sided words of my father's former friends cannot be used as evidence.That was the only big benefactor in Chu Rui's life. After he quit his job as a private driver, he raised Chu Quan alone and lived in poverty.As a classmate with Chu Quan, Shijie knew it all too well.

If there is a force behind Chu Rui that can manipulate all of this, it must be a rich person or a gangster.Although he resigned for many years and is now dead, nothing can be verified.However, it was a fact that Yaochen took in Yueguo, and they developed into lovers, and Yaochen's family knew the driver who caused the accident, so he didn't have any impression, how could there be such a coincidence in the world.

It would be too conspiracy theory to go on like this, and Yue Guo would not believe it.The harassment he received in the past four or five months really confused Yue Guo, and he didn't understand the purpose of the other party's doing so. It seemed that he was forcing them to break up. If Yao Chen did it, why would he pursue himself first.After the explosion, the police increased their attention to their home, and the security of the villa area was also strengthened.

"Yaochen has no reason to hire someone to cause trouble, he has no enmity with our family."

"I'm not sure if it's about him or if it's about his family."

Yue Guo stopped answering the phone, and didn't know much about Yaochen's family.

"Even if it doesn't matter, something is wrong with him? What does it mean to take your phone away? Are you not allowed to contact your friends?"

After thinking about it, Yueguo said helplessly, "I don't have any friends."

"Of course, he doesn't allow you to hang out with friends." Chu Quan did the same, and Shijie had heard about it.

It can't be said that, Yueguo was not very happy to hear him criticize Yaochen.In fact, it was he who took the initiative to cut off contact with most of his former friends. Those hypocritical friends, seeing that he was disabled, might even alienate him, so it's better to avoid them by himself.Lian Xiaoyan also wanted to approach him out of a curiosity-seeking mentality. In his predicament, no matter who chatted with him, they would have sympathy and a sense of superiority.Maybe it's not Yaochen's fault that he doesn't have friends, the real reason is that he himself dare not talk to others.

"It's my own problem, I'm a bit ashamed to contact my former friends." Yue Guo bowed his head helplessly.

"Then you have to go out anyway? He controls you like this..."

Anyway, it's not normal, Shijie choked up.

"That's what you said. But there are people who buy everything that is needed at home, and it's not my turn to go by myself... I rarely have the chance to go out."

"He paid a lot of money for you, didn't he?"

"Well, even if I don't want it, it's not up to me..."

Shijie was a little impatient, so he raised his voice and said, "Are you going to depend on him like this for the rest of your life?"

"Of course it's impossible..."

Yue Guo frowned, and didn't dare to think about such a thing.He didn't even know whether he still liked Yaochen or not.

"I will come out to look for a job." Today is also the purpose, Yueguo blinked his eyes hard, he was trying to relieve his soreness, Shijie felt sad, and stopped talking abruptly.

Instead of going out to work, Yueguo has no worries about food and clothing at home, so why should he worry?He will be angry, just because that man is better and richer than him, he has no ability to compare with him, let alone bear the responsibility of taking care of Yue Guo, so he is not reconciled.

"If you need my help, just give me a call."

"Can you transcribe your phone number for me?"

Shijie found a pen and paper on Xie Yun's desk, quickly wrote it down, and handed it to Yue Guo, who carefully put it away.

"You never recited my number before, I always thought you remembered it." Shijie murmured dissatisfied.

After dating for three years, Shijie thought that Yuehui would be more attentive.Perhaps from the beginning to the end, Yue Guo didn't have a place for him in his heart.At the beginning of the relationship, Yue Guo always had an attitude of indifference. After dating for half a year, Yue Guo got used to being with him, and then they planned their future life. Yue Guo went to his house to cook every day, and the two lived together intermittently. For a long time, at that time, he thought that he was chasing the wrong person. Although Yueguo was slow, he was very down-to-earth and focused.But then he got busy, and Yueguo immediately distanced himself from him, without questioning or pestering him, as if leaving at any time without feeling sad.Now it's even over, he doesn't feel that Yue Guo has any regrets and regrets for their feelings, and he is the only one who can't let go.

***

Yue Guo came home, exactly at 04:30 in the afternoon.He didn't say anything about going to the piano store, but he hoped that Shu Yan's driver wouldn't say either.

Sure enough, Yaochen returned home early as promised and opened the door for him.Yue Guo suddenly apologized, the two seemed to have not seen each other for a long time, he came back so late, was delayed for more than an hour at the piano store, and the car journey was two hours, and he was going to see his ex-boyfriend, which was ordered by Yaochen People who are not allowed to see, probably didn't notice anything.

"How's your lunch going?" Yaochen pushed him into the room, his face as cold as usual.

"It's delicious, but I went to a new restaurant in Jinglongwan."

"That must be very high-end."

"Well, yes." Yue Guo replied with a helpless smile.

"The housekeeper will come to cook dinner later, let's take a bath first."

"Ah, are you going now?" Yue Guo turned his head suspiciously.

"You smell like cigarettes all over your body." Yaochen said calmly. He didn't want to guess where Yueguo went. It is impossible for Shu Yan's family to go to a restaurant that smells like this, and it is a high-end commercial restaurant. .

Yue Guo opened his eyes wide, he picked up his sleeve and smelled it, he felt that the smell was very weak, even Yaochen could detect it.Yes, Shijie has the habit of smoking, he ignored it.

"Maybe it was stained when going to the toilet in the restaurant. There are employees secretly smoking in the toilet." Yue Guo made a random reason without thinking too much.

"It's okay, I just want you to take a bath." Yaochen realized that his attitude was a little harsh, he rubbed the back of Yueguo's neck and comforted him, "We have dinner later, we haven't eaten together for a long time, haven't we?"

"Yes, you've been a little busy recently." Yue Guo felt his cheeks burn unnaturally.

"I'm going to be busy with the visa issue."

"Hey?"

"I have something to go abroad."

"What are you going abroad for? Is it a business trip?" Yue Guo mustered up the courage to ask.

"It's not a business trip, but I'm going for a week."

After that, Yue Guo didn't say much.No matter what to do, it has nothing to do with him, because he is convinced that he will break up, and there is no need to ask the bottom of some things, Yao Chen is unwilling to say, it is his privacy.Yaochen has his own life and circle of friends, and he should face his future life again.

After dinner, Yueguo used crutches to move around for a while.They went back to the room to go to bed, it was still early, and with Yue Guo's physical condition, he already felt sleepy early.Yaochen lay down on him and unbuttoned his clothes.

It seems that I haven't done it for a long time, so Yaochen is very greedy.Before Yaochen came home late, Yueguo made himself calm down, and today he betrayed Yaochen, he was not used to intimacy.And it's not as good as before, he forgot what kind of gesture it is to cater to, and let others manipulate him.

Halfway through, Yue Guo cried out reluctantly, but he didn't notice that his hands were also pushing and resisting.

"Does it hurt?" Yaochen asked.

There's really no feeling, so it hurts, and he can't enjoy it.But it is impossible to say it bluntly, that would be too hurtful, Yue Guo turned sideways, "I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach..."

Even before the business started, he felt pain, which showed how unwilling he was.Yue Guo heard a faint sigh.

"Then go to bed." Yaochen lay down and hugged him.
