Half an hour ago.

After Lu Qinan entered the door, he glanced at Lin Yan, and after the two briefly greeted each other, he went into the bedroom to take a shower.

The previous misunderstanding was already unpleasant enough, Lin Yan thought of Lu Qinan being overtired because of taking care of himself, and then being scolded by the board of directors, and felt sorry. Back with a tired face, Lin Yan couldn't bear it anymore.

Distressed emotions had unconsciously occupied his mind, and when he saw Lu Qinan smiling tiredly, the throbbing pain in his heart made Lin Yan very sad.

He felt sorry for such a desperate Lu Qinan.

Seeing Lu Qinan enter the bedroom, Lin Yan suddenly remembered that he wanted to wait for Lu Qinan to come back and open the box of chocolates in front of him, expressing his gratitude by the way.But he took a few glances in the living room, and the chocolate that was still on the tea table in the afternoon disappeared at some point.

Seeing that a cleaning nurse was passing by the door, Lin Yan hurried to the door and grabbed the person.

"I'm sorry to ask, when I was cleaning this house, did you see a white box on the coffee table. It's about this size, made of wood."

The man looked at his gestures, thought for a while and said: "Ah, yes! But it seems that Mrs. Zhou took it away. Her grandson likes to collect these boxes. When I saw the box, it was thrown on the ground. The thing has been disassembled." After that, I thought you didn’t want it anymore, so I took it away and gave it to her. I’m really sorry, I’ll help you get it back!”

"No, no, I don't need to trouble you. Aunt Zhou lives in this hospital too, right? Take me there, and I'll talk to her myself. "

"Alright, I'm really sorry!"

Seeing the person's repeated apologies, Lin Yan was really embarrassed to blame her for anything, but he could only blame himself for being careless, not putting away the things properly, and not even noticing when they fell under the coffee table.

When the two arrived at Mrs. Zhou's residence, the cleaning nurse suddenly had an urgent matter and went back to the nurse's station. After Lin Yan entered the door, she explained to Mrs. Zhou why she came and wanted to get the box back.

However, the old lady did not intend to return it to him at all. Instead, she said aggressively: "How do you prove that the box is yours? She gave it to me and it is mine. I want to give it to my grandson as a souvenir. You don't want to talk to him." Rob!"

"Sister-in-law Zhou, that box belongs to me. When she cleaned it, she thought she didn't need it. She put it away by mistake. This thing is very important to me. Could you please return it to me?"

"Not good! You young people, the things you don't need are already thrown away. If I didn't put them away, would you still have to go to the garbage dump at this time? Anyway, you have already lost this thing, and now it is in my pocket. It's mine in my hand. Go! Go, go, my old lady is going to rest, and I have to get up early tomorrow to go grocery shopping!"

Said that the old lady named Mrs. Zhou was about to drive Lin Yan out. Seeing that she was about to close the door, Lin Yan stretched his feet in vigilantly, and pressed his knee against the door panel to prevent her from closing herself. go out.

"Old man, if you have something to say, don't drive me away. That thing is really important to me. I'll give you the money and I'll buy it from you, okay? You can take the money I paid for the box and give it to your grandson Pick a better looking one, do you think this will work?"

Lin Yan, who had never encountered such a thing before, was not very sure in his heart, but he still wanted to get the box back, even if it cost a lot of money, he would buy it back - that was Lu Qinan's wish, originally It should be priceless.

Seeing Lin Yan's honest appearance, Mrs. Zhou didn't look like she came here to cheat, but she still didn't want to sell him such a beautiful box easily, and shut him at the door, and the two confronted each other for a while in the crack of the door. , still reluctant to agree to his request.

"Sister-in-law Zhou, please make a price. As long as I have enough cash on me, I will pay. Please sell me that box!"

What Lin Yan said almost made her cry.If he didn't go back, Lu Qinan would probably come out of the shower later, and it would be bad when he found him.

"It's not impossible to sell it to you, but you have to prove that the box is yours."

Facing such an aggressive Mrs. Zhou, Lin Yan looked at her at a loss, and asked dumbly, "This... how can I prove it?"

Seeing him in a daze, Mrs. Zhou, who was already a little impatient, couldn't bear it anymore, and asked loudly, "What's in the box?!"

"Chocolate." Lin Yan answered truthfully.

"How many pieces?! What shape?!" Aunt Zhou continued to question loudly, as if Lin Yan was the one who took someone else's things.

Hearing Mrs. Zhou's question, Lin Yan couldn't help feeling ridiculous.He wanted to question this woman, why did she make things difficult for herself?The chocolate was originally given to her by Lu Qinan, what did she mean by blocking it like this? !

Although he was very annoyed, Lin Yan, who knew he couldn't entangle with women, answered her question resignedly: "36 pieces. The shapes are different, and the seats are not arranged regularly. They are placed casually."

"You're right. That's fine. I'll sell it to you for 100 yuan. How about it?"

"Ok."

Lin Yan said that he wanted to take money out of his pocket, but he had been wearing hospital clothes since he was hospitalized, and he had no money in his pocket since he had never been out of the house.

Seeing that the old lady was staring at him more and more coldly, Lin Yan quickly came up with a way to stabilize the old lady first, no matter what.

"I don't have any cash on me. I put my watch here. I'll go back to the ward to get the money now. I'll get the money in five minutes, is that okay?"

The old lady picked up the watch and looked at it for a long time before snorting: "Is this watch really yours? It's so valuable..."

"This watch is mine! It's from my parents!"

Being made things difficult by this old lady again and again, no matter how good-tempered Lin Yan was, she couldn't bear it anymore.

He could tolerate her making things difficult for him, but she questioned her own personality, which was a disgrace to the whole family.

The son is considered to be of bad conduct, a sign of lack of tutoring, and will embarrass the whole family - Lin Yan has been taught face-to-face by Lin Mu'er since he was a child, and the old lady's questioning just now made him embarrassed.It doesn't matter what he is like, and his family's reputation cannot be stigmatized because of him.

Mrs. Zhou stared at Lin Yan for a long time, then turned around and went into the room. After a while, she took out the box and handed it to him, saying with a blank expression: "Forget it, forget it, I don't care about it with you, take the box back. Come on, I don't want the money either. You go, I'm going to rest!"

After being made things difficult for so long before, she suddenly returned the box so easily, Lin Yan really couldn't believe it.

"Why don't you go quickly?!"

"Thank you, Mrs. Zhou! Good night!"

Holding the slightly dirty box, Lin Yan swept away the previous unhappiness.Walking at a relaxed pace, wiping the wooden box while walking, Lin Yan happily returned to his ward.

At that time, he never thought that the box of chocolates would cause trouble between himself and Lu Qinan again.

———————————————Back to the current dividing line————————————————

Lin Yan froze after Lu Qinan slammed the door.

Looking at the study room with the door closed, and at the box of chocolates, Lin Yan sat on the sofa a little weakly, looking at the untranslated documents on the computer screen, and his mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

When he came to his senses, Lu Qinan had been in the study for about an hour.

During this period, Lin Yan stared blankly at his laptop. The English words on the screen were scattered in the WORD document like bugs, so densely packed that it made people feel nauseous.

There was no way for him to overcome his long-standing slight fear of Lu Qinan in such a short period of time. There was no malice in pushing him away just now, it was just a physiological conditioned reflex.

If I could get along with Lu Qinan in such a harmonious way in the future, I would definitely be able to get over this problem slowly, but Lu Qinan didn't listen to his explanation, he just turned around and went into the study without giving him a chance or room to explain.

At a loss, Lin Yan sat on the sofa in a daze, thinking of Lu Qinan's atrocities against him before, his hand holding the chocolate suddenly began to tremble.

In that quiet living room, Lin Yan's teeth began to chatter, and he let out a "hissing" growl—the remaining rationality told him that it was the drug addiction.

The body began to tremble more and more, the head began to ache again, and the whole brain seemed to explode.

He couldn't find a way to vent, so he could only run to the door of the study with the box of chocolates in his arms and squat down, praying in his heart that he wouldn't fall ill as uncontrollably as before.
