waiting for the flowers to bloom

After driving with Cao Kexuan for nearly two hours, they came to a small courtyard that looked very dilapidated. When they got out of the car, a rusty sign above the gate read: Shuangqiao Orthopedic Center.Looking inside, the ground is made of concrete, but it is flat. The trees on both sides are thick and strong. There are a few dusty cars parked in front of the old low buildings, which look like they haven't been washed for some time.

If the door wasn't open, there could still be a few people walking around in the hall. Song Fanfan and Sui Dong really wondered if Cao Kexuan brought them to a horror film shooting base.

"Just here?" Sui Dong asked Cao Kexuan in surprise, expressing his meaning very clearly: Are you kidding me?

Cao Kexuan patted him on the shoulder to express his peace of mind, "I didn't believe it when I first came here, but it's here."

"How did you find it here?"

"A friend had a fight before and broke his leg, and he was treated here."

"Who is it? Do I know him?" Sui Dong really wanted to meet the friend Cao Kexuan was talking about, and it was a talent to find such a place to see a doctor.

"I mentioned to you before that you may have forgotten it, and I will explain it to you in a moment. Go in and have a look first, and I will take you to the doctor first."

Song Fanfan followed the two of them into the hospital, walked through the hall, and came to a door on the patterned floor with memories of the age.

Boom!Boom!Boom!Cao Kexuan knocked on the door.

"Come in." A hoarse voice came from inside, and when I opened the door, it turned out to be an old man who seemed to be over sixty, writing something at his desk.

"Boy Xuan."

"Grandpa Zhang, are you busy? I brought my friend over."

"Okay, sit down first, I'll finish what I have on hand."

The old man looked very kind, and he did things in a leisurely manner. Although he hadn't dealt with this old man before, Song Fanfan really admired him from the bottom of his heart.

The entire room does not have as many equipment as in a modern large hospital. An old desk is placed horizontally, and the old doctor is sitting behind the desk. Behind him is a window that opens outwards, half open for ventilation.Against the wall on the left side of the window was a dark red wooden cabinet with three shelves, which contained many books and some unnamed medical equipment.Apart from these, there is nothing worth mentioning in this house.

And, of course, the orange-yellow-painted bench they were sitting on now.Everything is very old and not modern, Song Fanfan feels as if he has entered a tunnel of time.

The old doctor stopped writing, put away his things, took a sip of strong tea from the cup on the table. "Xuan kid said whose foot was hurt?"

"Oh, it's my left foot. The previous doctor said it hurt the soft tissue."

"Come on, let me see." The old gentleman got up and walked over.

"Then you are busy first, and we will go to Xiaoshan to have a look." Cao Kexuan said and pulled Sui Dong out of the door.

"Let's just leave like this? Shall I wait at the door?" Sui Dong was a little worried. It's not that he didn't believe Cao Kexuan, but he always felt uneasy about such a strange place.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang is very famous in Yuan City. People here are treated here for any bruises. Don't you want to know who is hospitalized here? I'll take you there now."

"You can't stop talking, you are so mysterious!"

……

On this side, the old doctor was already looking at the X-ray film brought by Song Fanfan. "Hmm..." The old man put down the light sheet, closed his eyes and thought for a while, "You said it's useless if you soaked in medicinal wine?"

"It's not useless at all, it's just that there has been no radical cure. It was almost healed before, and as long as you don't exercise vigorously, you don't feel anything. But a while ago, it hurt here again. I took some anti-inflammatory drugs and basically made medicinal wine every day, but it still recovered. It’s not the same as before, and I can’t walk for a long time.”

"Okay, let's do this. I'll give you a try first to see the effect. If the method is feasible, I will treat it with acupuncture. You don't have a bone problem. It stands to reason that the problem is not too serious."

"Okay, then... when..." Song Fanfan was a little at a loss, so let's just get the needle. Fortunately, he has tried all kinds of methods.

The old doctor chuckled, "Don't worry, wait for me to prepare something. You take this to the next room." While talking, he walked to the side shelf and took down an enamel box, took out a small bag of cotton and handed it To Song Fanfan, "Take cotton dipped in this lotion and apply it on the painful area. Stop when you feel the skin is hot. This is a lotion. I have to ask your friend to come over and help me. Just call and call."

Song Fanfan followed the old doctor to the next door. He seemed to be looking for something, so he opened the door and went out after looking around the room without finding it.

Song Fanfan called Sui Dong, hung up the phone, sat on the bed, folded his pants up twice, and then applied the medicine according to the doctor's instructions. After 2 minutes of work, the old doctor came in with a roll of cloth in his hand, and a row of needles were neatly arranged when it was unfolded, which was really the same as the show on TV!

"How's it going?"

"I didn't apply it when I felt hot."

"Doctor Zhang, what's the matter?" Sui Dong opened the door and came in.

"Come on, come over and help hold down his left leg, and get the needle to prevent him from moving around." After speaking, he turned to Song Fanfan, "Lie flat, relax your leg, especially don't strain your left leg."

Song Fanfan lay down according to the doctor's instructions, and felt that Sui Dong was also pressing down on his leg.The moment of the first piercing was really very painful, as if it was pierced into the bone all of a sudden, it was painful, sore and a little itchy, and soon the needle on the leg became very hot, and the whole foot was hot. Lost consciousness, during the period, fortunately, Sui Dong held him down hard, otherwise the old doctor would not be able to get the needle at all.

Finally, with the help of Sui Dong, the doctor successfully inserted 5 needles near Song Fanfan's left foot. After observing for a minute, there was no problem. It’s okay to move, it’s okay to have redness, if it’s swollen or something else, just call me.”

"Okay, thank you very much."

After the old doctor went out, Sui Dong reached out and wiped the sweat left on Song Fanfan's forehead with his cuff, "How do you feel?"

"It's painful and numb, and it feels like my leg is swollen."

"It's not swollen, it works in your heart."

"How long does this take? Can I sit up?"

"I don't know, you lie down and don't move your legs."

"Where did you just go?"

"Followed Cao Kexuan to see a friend of his, who was also injured in a fight and hospitalized here."

"Then should I go and visit later?" Song Fanfan wasn't sure whether he, a person who couldn't be reached at all, needed to visit.

"Forget it, I just met. I heard from Cao Kexuan that his boyfriend fell in love with Cao Kexuan's half-brother. It's a mess of things."

Boy friend?Song Fanfan thought to himself, does the other party actually like men?There seems to be a mysterious force attracting him somewhere. "Is that so...then who will take care of Cao Kexuan when he's not here, family members?"

"No one. He is an orphan. He has been with his boyfriend since he was a child. His boyfriend used to be a gangster in Yuanshi, and then he slowly started a business and made a fortune. I heard from Cao Lao Er that his boyfriend was actually very early. I fell in love with Cao Wenxuan at that time, but after Cao Wenxuan returned to Heng'an, he never came back, and only got together with Xiaoshan, the one upstairs."

"Who knew that Cao's second son's father wanted to bring their family's business to Yuanshi, so he contacted Fan Long, who is his boyfriend. As a result, with this channel, Fan Long got in touch with Cao Wenxuan again. Xiaoshan advised It didn’t work, so I gave up. I got into a fight with someone outside for some reason last month, and the two of them broke their legs. They have been lying down for nearly a month now, and they are estimated to be discharged from the hospital next week.”

"You said Fan Long just now? Then... Is Xiaoshan called Shanhuangqi?"

"You know him?" Sui Dong was very surprised.

"That's right, but I'm not very familiar."

Song Fanfan thought of the Shan Xingqi he saw during his internship in the Changxin Group during the summer vacation after the college entrance examination. He was as thin as a bamboo pole, but he stood upright, wearing a slightly loose suit and a gold Silk-rimmed eyes.

When he came back to his senses, he saw that Sui Dong was still waiting for his next words.

"I used to be an intern in Changxin for a period of time. I met him at that time. It's been several years. I heard from people in the company that he is the person in charge of Longsheng Real Estate in Yuanshi. I want to cooperate with Changxin on some project. I didn’t quite understand. Later, due to some problems with Longsheng’s boss, we couldn’t cooperate. When I noticed him, he was talking with people in the company. Later, I knew him. After I got off work, he went to my dad’s office. Dad seems to appreciate him quite a bit, but my dad can’t decide on the matter of cooperation alone. I only met him and chatted with him during the internship for more than a month, but I haven’t seen him since.”

"It's such a coincidence that he can be regarded as your acquaintance. Do you think you want to visit him?"

Song Fanfan had a good impression of this boy who was not much older than himself. Although they had never had any interaction after the internship, the other party was also a rare person who could be remembered by Song Fanfan for so many years, so he naturally wanted to see him.

But in the current situation, the other party probably doesn't necessarily remember me, even if he does remember, he wouldn't want me to see him now...

"Forget it, let him recuperate well. Well... can you ask Cao Kexuan to send me a box of toffee for him. If he still remembers me, next time I come to Yuanshi, I will go and see him."

"That's not a problem, he likes toffee?"

Song Fanfan smiled and shook his head, "He didn't like to eat sweets, but once I saw him resting against the wall with his eyes closed, and said he had hypoglycemia. That day, an aunt I knew in the company gave me I bought a box of candies, and seeing that he couldn’t stand upright, I forced him to eat several. Later he told me that he liked it.”

Sui Dong had a taste for this past that he never knew. Shan Xingqi knew Song Fanfan earlier than himself, and he had never seen Song Fanfan talking about someone like this.He knew that Song Fanfan had no friends all along, but at the moment he was worried whether Song Fanfan had a different feeling for that Shan Xingqi in his heart. If that was the case, the other party was also in a window of time, and the two were old acquaintances...

Just as the two were contemplating each other, the old doctor opened the door and walked in.

When he was leaving, the old doctor didn’t prescribe any medicine, he just told Song Fanfan to rest well, use the medicinal wine if he had it, it doesn’t matter if he didn’t have it, soaking his feet in hot water is also fine, and then he will come and see after a week, according to The situation will be treated later.

There were only Song Fanfan and Sui Dong on the return journey, and Cao Kexuan stayed because he had other things to do in Yuanshi.

Because it was getting dark and it was too unsafe to drive at night, Song Fanfan and Sui Dong found a clean looking hotel nearby for just one night.This time, Sui Dong consciously asked for two rooms, and the two rooms were next to each other. Song Fanfan watched Sui Dong open the door next to him and went in, but felt a little weird.

Of course, he knew that the current situation was very dangerous for both of them. Once he or he took any wrong step, there was no way to recover the situation.Therefore, he must be very, very cautious, put away his cheap sympathy and soft-heartedness, and force himself to consider all aspects involved in every decision.

Both of them got up very early because they had to go on the road the next day.It can be seen that Song Fanfan's mood is normal, Sui Dong thinks about it, but he doesn't know the reason, obviously it has calmed down a little yesterday, affected by Song Fanfan's emotions, he also feels a little depressed, this is not like himself.Just as he was thinking about whether to say something to divert his attention, the phone rang.

"Can you answer the phone for me, it's my mother." Sui Dong glanced at the phone and said. "You said I was driving, and I will call her back when I stop the car."

Song Fanfan hesitated for a second, then picked up the phone as Sui Dong said, "Hello, Auntie."

……

"I'm Song Fanfan. It's inconvenient for Sui Dong to answer the phone while driving. He said he'll call you back later."

……

"Yes, he should be able to go back today."

……

"Okay, I will convey it, don't worry."

……

"Ok, no problem."

……

"I'm fine, thank you, auntie."

……

"Well, well, okay, see you later, Auntie."

Song Fanfan hung up the phone and put it down, "Your mother said you didn't answer Zhao Chengyuan's call, so she went to find you, but she couldn't reach anyone for two days. Your grandma is very anxious."

"Zhao Chengyuan? Where is she going to find me? She doesn't even know where I am. Don't worry about her."

"It can be said that no one can be contacted for three days. Do you want to call the police?"

"Why call the police. I don't know how many times I have played this trick since I was a child. My mother and grandma are the only ones who care about it. Let others care about her."

"You should call back when you have time." Song Fanfan didn't want to meddle in this nosy business, but he was talking too much for Meng Qiuxia's sake. He didn't have a good impression of Zhao Chengyuan himself.

Sui Dong didn't say anything, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The return trip was much faster than the previous trip, and the journey was smooth, and we returned to Yijiang in less than four hours.Song Fanfan originally wanted Sui Dong to have lunch at home and take a break before going home in the afternoon.But Sui Dong didn't really want to stay, so Song Fanfan naturally wouldn't force him to stay, so he sincerely thanked him and set a time to go to Yuanshi next week.
