[Now] I want to hold your hand tightly

The scenery is different all over the world, the only thing that is the same is the sun in the blue sky.

Sunlight pierced the darkness of the room through the cracks in the curtains. Zhou Jisheng turned over, looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table with half-opened eyes, and reached out his hand to turn off the alarm clock before it rang.

The itinerary in the United States will start today. Zhou Jisheng glanced at the mobile phone beside the bed, and found that there was no text message or call. Zhou Jisheng felt a little disappointed, and then laughed at himself. This is the United States. No messages, no calls.

After washing up, Zhou Jisheng was about to have breakfast when the doorbell rang and Zhou Jisheng opened the door. Lin Shanshan smiled at Zhou Jisheng: "Goodmorning!"

"Good morning." Zhou Jisheng turned sideways, ready to invite Lin Shanshan into the room.

Lin Shanshan shook her hand and said no, she asked Zhou Jisheng if he had breakfast, Zhou Jisheng said not yet, Lin Shanshan said she should take Zhou Jisheng to have breakfast, the breakfast in the hotel was not good.

Zhou Jisheng readily agreed and followed Lin Shanshan out of the hotel.

No matter how rich the Western-style breakfast is, the taste is mediocre for those who are used to eating Chinese food since childhood.Zhou Jisheng thinks that eating three meals a day is enough, and he is not too picky. However, the American way of eating is different from Zhou Jisheng's standard.After eating, Zhou Jisheng wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and drank the last sip of coffee.Lin Shanshan had almost finished eating too. She observed Zhou Jisheng's expression while eating. Although the person across from him ate up all the breakfast on the plate, Zhou Jisheng did not show the slightest expression of admiration while eating. Lin Shanshan I guessed that Zhou Jisheng didn't like western food.

"Mr. Zhou, you must be chased by many girls in China." Lin Shanshan said while wiping the corners of her mouth with a napkin.

Zhou Jisheng said with a slight smile, "Miss Lin is absurd. I'm poor and white, so there's no one to chase after me."

Lin Shanshan laughed out loud: "It's not good for Mr. Zhou to lie, although I think you're being self-effacing."

"It's not self-effacing. For a man with a lover, no girls will chase him."

Lin Shanshan nodded her head clearly, Zhou Jisheng misunderstood what she meant, but from another perspective, Zhou Jisheng cared about his lover very much.

"Mr. Zhou, have you seen today's itinerary?" Although Lin Shanshan has been living in the United States, her family is a typical Chinese family. To pursue, so she changed the subject.

Zhou Jisheng nodded. Today at 9 o'clock in the Washington Medical Association there will be a demonstration operation for about 4 hours. After lunch, there will be a report on the operation at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, which will last until four o'clock in the afternoon.Today's schedule is so full that Zhou Jisheng doesn't even have time to be distracted.

I want to come to Washington to relax and take care of the relationship between him and Xu Haoran, so I don't have time today.Not knowing how Xu Haoran was doing, Zhou Jisheng kept Xu Haoran's matter in his heart, stood up and followed Lin Shanshan to the American Medical Association.

The last dead leaf struggled on the branch, and was finally blown to the ground by the cold wind.Winter in Jingnan City came earlier this year. After the first snow fell in early December, the weather has not cleared up.After the snow stopped, it rained lightly, which was annoying.Especially for those who are empty-hearted, sitting in front of the window and hearing the sound of rain, their thoughts are disturbed and entangled. Seeing the cursor flashing on the computer screen, Xu Haoran let out a long breath and directly closed the document.

He was going to turn off the computer directly, but he didn't give up, so he clicked on the mailbox and took a look. In addition to the papers and materials sent to him by Nie Mi, there were some little girls who got his mailbox through some unknown method. confession email.The sound of rain coming from outside the window was beating on his heart, Xu Haoran quickly scanned through the unchecked emails, and looked back and forth several times, when he was sure that the familiar account had not sent an email. , Xu Haoran dejectedly closed the mailbox and closed the notebook directly.

Did he overestimate himself, or underestimate Zhou Jisheng?He thought that he could live as usual these days without Zhou Jisheng, but the reality slapped Xu Haoran in the face.

Xu Haoran is not doing well, and things at school are messy.Nie Mi and Professor Lin's calculations are getting bigger and bigger, making Xu Haoran overwhelmed.All kinds of dinners come one after another, and the words on the wine table are hidden and tucked away, making people guess what the other party wants to say. This kind of wine table politics makes Xu Haoran dizzy, and Xu Haoran looks drunkly at the table The professors and scholars who are teachers and scholars, the masks of teaching and educating people on the podium have been taken off, and the faces of forming cliques at the wine table are their truest sides.Xu Haoran held an unknown number of glasses of wine, raised his eyebrows and looked at the people on the wine table, and poured his head up.

The discomfort in his stomach became more and more intense. Since the relationship between him and Zhou Jisheng was no longer as close as before, he found that his stomach was getting more and more uncomfortable.On the second day after Zhou Jisheng left, Xu Haoran, who drank half a catty of white wine the day before, felt his stomach ache as if it was being burned.Xu Haoran dug out the medicine box at home, and four boxes of gastric medicines were neatly placed on the top row of the medicine box.Xu Haoran used the medicine box most at home. Xu Haoran remembered that when he opened the medicine box last time, there was only the last half box of stomach medicine left.Xu Haoran picked up an unopened box of stomach medicine, and a side note was exposed where the stomach medicine was originally placed.Xu Haoran took out the note, the handwriting on it was all too familiar - remember to eat something to warm your stomach for three meals a day, take care of yourself.

As if his heart had stopped beating, Xu Haoran stared blankly at the writing on the paper, a huge sense of emptiness spread throughout his body.

Zhou Jisheng...I miss you.

Xu Haoran immediately got up from the ground, rushed out of the bedroom in a hurry, and opened the notebook he had just closed.He was so stupid, he actually ignored the people who had always treated him sincerely for the sake of those powers and ambitions.It was he who pushed Zhou Jisheng away with his own hands. Fame, wealth, desire, and ambition are insignificant compared to those who love him and the people he loves, like dust.

"Zhou Jisheng... I miss you." After typing this sentence, Xu Haoran clicked the send button.The pain in the stomach hit again, Xu Haoran struggled to pour himself a glass of boiling water, opened the unopened box of gastric medicine, and put it into his mouth with the water.Xu Haoran sat on the floor, resting his head on his arm on the coffee table, staring intently at the mailbox page on the computer screen, waiting quietly.

The sound of rain outside the window was getting louder and louder, but Xu Haoran felt a lot calmer when he heard it.

On the stage, the doctor who had finished the operation in the morning was giving a report. Zhou Jisheng listened carefully, while taking notes in his notebook.Lin Shanshan sat next to Zhou Jisheng, watching Zhou Jisheng kept typing on the keyboard to make records, Lin Shanshan smiled slightly and turned her head to continue listening to the report.

The report lasted for nearly three hours. After the people on the stage finished talking about their surgical experience, there was a round of warm applause from the audience.

"A very wonderful report." Zhou Jisheng put his laptop into his computer bag and said to Lin Shanshan while applauding.

Lin Shanshan smiled and nodded in agreement. It was indeed a wonderful report, but she was looking forward to Zhou Jisheng's report even more.

"Doctor Zhou, did Dean Chen tell you that the professors at the headquarters of Boren Hospital also hope that you can give a report the day after tomorrow?"

"What?" Zhou Jisheng was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered a paper that Dean Chen asked him to do before leaving, and told him to bring this paper with him when he went to the United States this time. Is this the original intention?

Lin Shanshan was taken aback seeing Zhou Jisheng, and understood that Dean Chen didn't tell Zhou Jisheng because he was afraid that Zhou Jisheng would regret it temporarily.In the eyes of Dean Chen, Zhou Jisheng is a rare talent, but Zhou Jisheng is too low-key. He could have been named chief physician more than a year ago, but Zhou Jisheng said that he lacks experience and needs to be sharpened.Dean Chen really loves Zhou Jisheng, and wants to train Zhou Jisheng as his successor, but the successor has always been poor, so Dean Chen will take this opportunity to let Zhou Jisheng grasp the rare performance Opportunity to show his medical research to the world's medical researchers.It is also good to take this opportunity to leave a good impression on the professors at the headquarters of Boren Hospital, which will benefit Zhou Ji's development after his birthday.

"This report is very important. It is related to whether you can work at the headquarters of Washington Boren Hospital. President Chen and my father are looking forward to it." Lin Shanshan worried that Zhou Jisheng would not give the report, and further persuaded Zhou Jisheng.

Zhou Jisheng thought for a while, and after hearing the doctor's report just now, Zhou Jisheng felt something. He reached out and picked up the computer bag on the chair. After a few seconds, he nodded to Lin Shanshan and agreed to Lin Shanshan's request. Shanshan's invitation.Lin Shanshan happily held Zhou Jisheng's hand and thanked her repeatedly, unable to restrain her excitement.Zhou Jisheng felt that his hand was about to cramp from Lin Shanshan's grip, and Zhou Jisheng couldn't refuse.

Dinner was eaten at Lin Jun's house. Lin Jun and Zhou Jisheng hit it off immediately. Lin Jun's wife, Ge Min, also liked Zhou Jisheng very much, and added food to Zhou Jisheng's bowl from time to time.When Ge Min heard Zhou Jisheng say that he already had a lover, Ge Min pretended to be disappointed and said that if Zhou Jisheng came to America earlier, he could be their son-in-law.Zhou Jisheng smiled a little embarrassedly, but fortunately Lin Jun and Lin Shanshan helped him out and brought the topic back.

After dinner, Lin Jun invited Zhou Jisheng to stay at his house for one night, Zhou Jisheng couldn't refuse and stayed at Lin's house.Lin Jun and Zhou Jisheng chatted happily. When they talked about Zhou Jisheng’s submission of resume to Boren Hospital, Lin Jun asked Zhou Jisheng strangely: “I remember that you graduated with the No. From your family background, you either stayed at Jingnan University School of Medicine as an associate professor, or worked in the city's No. 1 Hospital, why did you choose Boren Hospital, which was not well-known at the time?"

Dean Chen of Boren Hospital has always believed that Zhou Jisheng's coming to work in Boren Hospital is a treasure that Boren Hospital has seen. For so many years, Dean Chen is so happy that Zhou Jisheng works in Boren Hospital.He never thought that Zhou Jisheng came to work in Boren Hospital because he had a falling out with his father Zhou Bo.

Faced with Lin Jun's question, Zhou Jisheng had no choice but to be honest. He said apologetically, "Back then I actually had a falling out with my parents, so I had nowhere to go."

The expression on Lin Jun's face did not change. Zhou Jisheng had no choice but to choose Boren, or he had other ideas. Lin Jun did not believe that Zhou Jisheng entered Boren because he was interested in Boren's future development into a large hospital.

"I see." Although Zhou Jisheng said so, Lin Jun also heard Zhou Jisheng's helplessness. Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Lin Jun didn't ask anymore. He reached out and patted Zhou Jisheng's shoulder and said, " Shanshan said that you promised to give a report the day after tomorrow, and I am looking forward to your performance."

"Thank you, Professor Lin." Zhou Jisheng thanked him with a smile.
