heartstrings

Within a few minutes, Ke Ruochu received a reminder message, but it was from Ke Zhihan, asking if he had time to go to her place for dinner tonight.

Ke Ruochu replied that he couldn't go, after all, he had an appointment with Sheng Ruqi tonight.

Just after returning, another message came in.

This time it is Sheng Ruqi:

[Sister] I have something to do, I don't have time.

There were only a few words, and no specific reason was given, but yesterday it was clearly agreed that we would have dinner together tonight.Ke Ruochu typed quickly on the phone's keyboard: Are you going to work overtime again?

However, it took a long time to wait for a reply.

Ke Ruochu wanted to ask Sheng Ruqi when she would be free, but saw that she hadn't replied to the message half an hour ago, so she didn't ask again.

Is she busy today?

Maybe she has just returned to China and is really too busy with work.

When he was about to get off work, Ke Ruochu had just finished writing the case report when he was stopped by the instructor: "Xiao Ke, don't go, I will perform the surgery with me later. Go eat something first, I won't have time for the surgery later. "

"okay."

I was caught off guard by working overtime.

This is a common occurrence, and Ke Ruochu is no stranger to it.

Time is limited, so Ke Ruochu plans to settle it casually in the cafeteria for dinner.When going downstairs, she went to the ward next door, and asked Bai Meng if she wanted to eat in the cafeteria together.

The corridor is quiet, the incandescent lamps are quietly shining, and occasionally a few people pass by.

Ke Ruochu saw Bai Meng standing outside the office, talking to someone on the phone in a low voice. Although the voice was not loud, she could still get a rough idea.

"Sister, why are you hospitalized again? Are you okay? Did you go drinking last night..." If the friend from the gastroenterology department told her, Bai Meng would not have known that Sheng Ruqi had "patronized" their hospital again.

It was only then that Ke Ruochu realized that Sheng Ruqi was referring to being hospitalized.

"...It's good that I'm fine. I'll come to see you when I'm done."

As soon as Bai Meng hung up the phone, she saw Ke Ruochu walking over.

"Your sister...what's wrong?" Ke Ruochu asked before Bai Meng could speak, "Why is she hospitalized again?"

"It's an old problem." Bai Meng put her hands in her pockets, curled her lips helplessly, "I guess I drank too much last night. She's like this, no one can control her."

Drink again.

Ke Ruochu was distracted, remembering the last time Sheng Ruqi hugged her on the bed and said to her: "Okay, I promise you, I won't drink anymore."

At that time, Ke Ruochu thought that Sheng Ruqi had really given up drinking because she spoke so gently and earnestly.

"Why did you come here?" Bai Meng asked.

At this moment, when Ke Ruochu heard that Sheng Ruqi was sick and hospitalized, he didn't know where he was going.After listening to Bai Meng's question, she reacted and answered, "I'm going to eat in the cafeteria, do you want to come with me?"

Bai Meng sighed, "I don't have time to eat, old Gu is urging me to go to the operating room."

Lao Gu is Bai Meng's tutor at the General School.

She will follow her into the operating room tonight, "Stop talking, I'll go there first."

After Bai Meng left, Ke Ruochu hurried to the elevator and pressed the down button.

Gastroenterology is downstairs.

13F.

Although Ke Ruochu didn't ask Bai Meng's ward number, he knew where Sheng Ruqi was when he went to the nurse's station. She had been in the Department of Gastroenterology for more than a month before, and she was familiar with the nurses here.

Coincidentally, it happened to be the same room as when she was hospitalized last time.

Ke Ruochu tapped lightly on the door.

"Come in."

Ke Ruochu walked into the ward.

One is standing at the door, the other is lying on the hospital bed, a familiar scene.

Ke Ruochu gently closed the door, only to see Sheng Ruqi leaning on the hospital bed with an open notebook on her lap.I didn't have a good rest.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the person coming in wearing a white coat, and thought it was just a doctor who came to make rounds. Sheng Ruqi didn't look up, didn't speak, and continued to do her own thing.

Ke Ruochu walked to the hospital bed, lowered his head, "Why didn't you tell me when you were hospitalized? I just heard Mengmeng tell me."

After hearing the familiar voice and tone, Sheng Ruqi raised her head slowly, looked at Ke Ruochu's face, then looked away again, looked back at the computer screen, and said calmly, "It's nothing."

If nothing happens, you won't be hospitalized.

Ke Ruochu felt sorry for her but also a little angry. He felt sorry for her sick and haggard, and angry that she didn't listen to the persuasion and drank alcohol.Originally, I had a stomach problem, and I still smoked and drank alcohol. The next time I did this again, I would have to go to surgery, but taking some medicine would not solve the problem.

Standing in a daze, Ke Ruochu didn't speak for a while, and after a long time, she sat down on the chair beside the bed, "Does it still hurt, is it better now?"

In the soft and gentle questioning, she couldn't hide her anxiety and worry.

Sheng Ruqi looked at Ke Ruochu's appearance when she was nervous, but she couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in.Thinking that Ke Ruochu has been so considerate all this time, she really just treats her like a sister, she feels blocked.Thinking of Ke Ruochu acting coquettishly in other people's arms...

"I'm fine," Sheng Ruqi lowered her eyes and replied calmly, "Go ahead."

"Are you in a bad mood?" No matter how dull Ke Ruochu was, he could still feel it.She went to drink again last night, probably because she was in a bad mood. I really want to talk to myself more when she is in a bad mood, and I don't know how willing I am to accompany her.

Ke Ruochu regretted it. If he had known that he would have gone to have dinner with her last night, he wouldn't have made it like this.

"No." Sheng Ruqi smiled, her smile was as against her will as her tone, and she couldn't figure out what happened last night, she actually went to the hospital because of a girl drinking, no wonder Lin Yan would laugh at her.

Lin Yan said that she looked scary when she drank last night.

Worse than falling in love.

"I want to rest." Sheng Ruqi said again.

"You haven't eaten yet, I'll buy you some porridge."

"Need not……"

"It's okay," Ke Ruochu had already got up, and he wanted to be as active as possible, "You wait for me, I'll be right back."

Ten minutes later, Ke Ruochu came back with the porridge, his cheeks were flushed, because he was in a hurry and was a little hot.She was so focused on buying for Sheng Ruqi that she didn't have time to eat it herself.

"Drink the porridge while it's hot. I have to work overtime tonight." Ke Ruochu put the dinner on the cabinet next to the hospital bed, and carefully opened the covers one by one. He didn't even have time to sit for a while. Teach, urge her to go to the operating room quickly, "You have a good rest, I'm leaving first."

Ke Ruochu left in a hurry, but the sound of the door closing was very soft.

Sheng Ruqi stared at the steaming porridge on the bedside. Even the tableware and paper towels were carefully arranged, so you can just eat it.

Not to mention, I am really happy to have such a little girlfriend... Sheng Ruqifa felt that she was thinking too much again, wondering if she was too free recently, how could she have the energy to think about these "irrelevant" things.

Having no appetite, Sheng Ruqi continued to work with her notebook in her hand, letting the porridge beside her turn from hot to cold.

During the few days when Sheng Ruqi was hospitalized, Ke Ruochu visited more frequently than Bai Meng.Basically every day after get off work, Ke Ruochu would go to Sheng Ruqi's ward to take a look and eat with her, even though he still had to go to school at night.

At six o'clock in the evening, Ke Ruochu appeared in the ward again.

"Why are you here again?" Sheng Ruqi wanted to ask her why she didn't spend time with her girlfriend, but her throat stuck and she didn't ask.

Simply silent.

"Accompany you to dinner, if I don't come, you definitely won't eat it." Ke Ruochu understood Sheng Ruqi's temperament, she always refuses to eat when she is alone.

So considerate that I have nothing to say.

Sheng Ruqi looked at Ke Ruochu, but didn't know what to say. She forced a smile and pretended to be relaxed, "Come to accompany me every day, aren't you afraid that she will be jealous?"

"Ah?" Ke Ruochu didn't hear it clearly, or could hear it vaguely, but didn't understand what Sheng Ruqi wanted to express.

The chat between the two is not on the same channel at all, so naturally they can't understand.

Sheng Ruqi was lukewarm, and said, "You don't have to eat with me anymore."

Ke Ruochu heard this sentence clearly, she felt a lump in her throat immediately, and was unable to speak for a while, her first reaction was, did Sheng Ruqi think she was annoying?

The two were frozen, without saying a word, Sheng Ruqi caught a glimpse of a tall figure outside the ward, her memory was better than ordinary people, and she had a deep memory of the woman who was with Ke Ruochu.

Sheng Ruqi reminded Ke Ruochu: "Someone is looking for you."

Ke Ruochu took a moment to notice Ke Zhihan's figure, Ke Zhihan was waving at her, she paused, and walked out quickly.

The corridor outside the ward.

Ke Zhihan handed two insulated boxes to Ke Ruochu's hands, two heavy boxes, "Here, the pork belly soup and red bean porridge you want to drink."

"Thank you, aunt, and you worked so hard to bring it here."

Because Ke Ruochu was too busy during this time, Ke Zhihan had no time to go to Ke Zhihan's for dinner, Ke Zhihan said it would be the same if it was ready and brought it to her. Ke Ruochu simply asked Ke Zhihan to cook some soup and bring it to Sheng Ruqi.

Her sister-in-law's cooking skills are no worse than those bought outside, and they are clean and nutritious.

"I'm going to work soon, and when the time comes, you think I won't have time to deliver meals to you." Ke Zhihan smiled and patted Ke Ruochu's head, "Work hard, I still have to deliver meals to your mother, let's go first."

Sheng Ruqi kept staring at the two people outside the door until Ke Ruochu walked into the ward with the incubator, then she looked away, pretending nothing happened.

"There's soup and porridge here, let's drink it together, I made me..."

"I won't drink anymore."

The words were interrupted, Ke Ruochu pursed his lips slightly, and looked at Sheng Ruqi with grievances, always feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, as if she didn't want to see him.Do you really think you are annoying?

After a short period of silence, Sheng Ruqi added lightly, "Your girlfriend gave it to you specially, and it's not suitable for me to drink."

Girlfriend, did she misunderstand something?Ke Ruochu made a detour, no wonder Sheng Ruqi said "I'm not afraid she will be jealous" just now.

"That's not my girlfriend..." Ke Ruochu explained weakly.

Hugging and cuddling is so intimate, the relationship is not pure if it is not a girlfriend.

"Isn't your girlfriend hugging so tightly?" Sheng Ruqi recalled Bai Meng's words, "You like her? Bai Meng said you've been chasing her recently."

This tone...

Ke Ruochu noticed that the atmosphere seemed to have changed a bit, she stared at Sheng Ruqi: "That's my aunt...I explained it to Mengmeng, why is she still talking nonsense."

Ke Ruochu explained it to Bai Meng, but Bai Meng didn't explain it to Sheng Ruqi, Sheng Ruqi didn't know.

The conversation came to an abrupt end.

Sheng Ruqi caught the key words from Ke Ruochu's long string of words: "Your aunt?"

Ke Ruochu nodded, "Well, that was my sister-in-law just now."

Sheng Ruqi stared into Ke Ruochu's eyes, she didn't speak for a long time, she felt relieved, she thought this little white rabbit would belong to someone else in the future.

moment.

"Your aunt is so young..." The expression on Sheng Ruqi's face right now could be called a smile.

Finally laughed.

Ke Ruochu seemed to understand something vaguely. She picked up the insulated box in her hand and continued to explain, "I specially asked her to make soup to nourish the stomach. It is the most suitable for you to drink. Can you drink some?"

"That day in the garage, I thought it was your girlfriend..." Sheng Ruqi still stopped on this topic, "This Bai Meng is talking nonsense."

The topic turned back to "girlfriend".

Ke Ruochu looked at Sheng Ruqi in a daze, and once again she felt that Sheng Ruqi cared about this issue, just like she cared about her relationship with Lin Yan last time.

"I don't have a girlfriend." Ke Ruochu hastily emphasized, lest Sheng Ruqi misunderstand that she is not single.

The two looked at each other silently.

Afterwards, Sheng Ruqi said softly: "Idiot..."

"Ok?"

"I want soup."

Just now she said she wouldn't drink, but now... Ke Ruochu had a bold idea in her mind, so she is in a bad mood these days, is it because she misunderstood that she has a girlfriend?Thinking about it, Ke Ruochu was going crazy with joy, which meant that Sheng Ruqi didn't just care about her.

"You're not angry with me anymore?" These days, Ke Ruochu always felt that Sheng Ruqi was angry with her, and her attitude was cold.

Sheng Ruqi's tone softened, "When did I get angry with you?"

Ke Ruochu looked at Sheng Ruqi, thinking that Sheng Ruqi had been lukewarm to her recently, and felt uncomfortable, she murmured, "Then why are you ignoring me? I thought you were annoying me and didn't want to see me."

She said it with a smile, but she was full of grievances. Being annoyed by the person she liked, she felt sad just thinking about it.

How can I not want to see you?After seeing each other for a few days, Sheng Ruqi couldn't help but think that Ke Ruochu couldn't see that Ke Ruochu was wronged. She, who has always been more difficult to bow her head and admit her mistakes than ascending to the sky, was really humbled, and coaxed: "No...it's my fault, I admit my mistakes."

How could Ke Ruochu resist such tenderness? As soon as Sheng Ruqi opened her mouth, her grievance disappeared, her fair cheeks were slightly red, and the corners of her mouth curled into sweet dimples.

Especially thinking of Sheng Ruqi's nervous appearance after she misunderstood that she had a girlfriend, Ke Ruochu couldn't help but smile.

"Are you so happy to see me sick and hospitalized?"

Ke Ruochu bit his lips and smiled, "I didn't."

"Still laughing." Seeing this smile, Sheng Ruqi also laughed, unable to look away.

She admits that she has fallen, completely fallen, thinking that this little white rabbit can only be hers, and no one can touch it...
