family of doctors

When Chen Linlin came back from buying medicine, she found that Shao Rong was not at home. There was a note on the table, which said: "I want to go home and get some food. Linlin, cook for yourself."

Chen Linlin was a little worried. After all, Shao Rong still had a fever in the morning. Would it be okay to go out alone at this time?

Called him but couldn't get through, so Chen Linlin had to go into the kitchen to make lunch.

Shao Rong took a taxi home alone.

For some reason, after learning the truth about his birth, he suddenly wanted to see Shao Changgeng, just like a drowning man wanting to grasp the last straw.

In this world, only Shao Changgeng really treats him well, and only by staying by Shao Changgeng's side can he feel at ease.

There was even an irrational impulse in his mind.

That impulse told him that as long as he could stay by Shao Changgeng's side, he was willing to bear all the consequences...

Arriving at the door of the familiar house, my fingertips were still trembling when I took out the key to open the door, everything in front of me became blurred, and I couldn't even insert the key for a long time.

Maybe he really had a fever, felt dizzy, and felt like he was stepping on a ball of cotton.

After finally inserting the key into the hole and opening the door, he found Shao Changgeng standing in front of the mirror and putting on his tie.

He was wearing a very formal suit, with a straight shirt collar lining his handsome face. With such a formal attire and the familiar briefcase on his right hand, it was obvious that he was about to go out for something.

After seeing Shao Rong, his eyes turned cold, he turned around and asked lightly, "What are you doing back?"

Shao Rong's lips moved, but he found that he didn't know what to say.

Shao Changgeng's indifferent and sharp gaze was like a bucket of cold water poured on his head, instantly extinguishing the irrational impulse in his mind.

Shao Rong completely woke up from the dazed state, he was really glad that he was able to wake up in time, and did not say such embarrassing words as "let me stay by your side".

After being silent for a while, Shao Rong said softly, "I'll scoop something up."

Shao Changgeng understood it, nodded and said, "I packed some of your clothes, admission ticket, high school student status file, and IELTS report card in the study. You go and check them, and don't miss anything you need."

"……Um."

"I'm going out first. I have a meeting in the afternoon." Shao Changgeng looked down at his watch, turned around with his briefcase and walked to the door, then stopped and said back, "Leave the keys before you leave."

"... Oh." Shao Rong nodded.

Seeing his dazed expression, Shao Changgeng frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Shao Rong shook his head, squeezed out a smile, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, you can go to work."

He didn't want to tell him that he had a fever, and he didn't want to tell him that he subconsciously came to him because he had a fever and became dizzy. Just now, he even impulsively wanted to speak and stay by his side.

It is said that people become weaker than usual when they are sick, and it is true.

It's just that he had a fever, and his head became dizzy, and he almost threw himself into Shao Changgeng's arms like before, just to seek that familiar, precious... warmth.

Fortunately, the brakes were stopped in time.

Just hide that shameful fragility in your heart secretly.

"You pack your things yourself, I'll go first." Shao Changgeng glanced at him, then turned and walked out the door.

It wasn't until his back disappeared at the door that Shao Rong heaved a sigh of relief.

Turning around and staggering into the study, I found a medicine box and found a pile of antipyretics, took a few pills with warm water, then walked to my room in a daze, lay on the bed and fell asleep hugging the pillow.

In the dream, he saw Shao Changgeng sitting quietly beside his bed as before.

He reached out and stroked his hair gently, his face was full of love and tenderness.

Then, he leaned over and kissed his lips again, his tongue opened the jaws, slowly licked his mouth, entangled his dodging tongue, turned it gently, and sucked.

Such a warm and soft kiss seems to have a soothing power that can make people fall easily.

No one knows how important this bit of warmth is to Shao Rong at this moment.

When he woke up, there was a layer of cold sweat on his body. Shao Rong found himself sleeping on the bed alone. The room was quiet, and he could hear his rapid breathing, and Shao Changgeng was not by his side.

Sure enough, it was just a dream.

Shao Changgeng never procrastinates when doing things. Since he has decided to make a clean break, how could he come back and even kiss himself...

Besides, he's already gone to a meeting.

Shao Rong sat on the bed in silence for a while, got up and walked to the study room, and saw a folder on the table that he had sorted out, which contained all the materials he needed to study abroad.

There was also a suitcase beside him, and when he opened it, it was filled with his favorite clothes.

Each piece was bought by Shao Changgeng himself...

Shao Rong still remembers this white windbreaker. He took him to a specialty store to pick it out in his third year of high school. It was expensive, but he bought it without frowning. When he complained that the dress was too expensive, he He just smiled and said, "As long as you like it."

There is also this scarf, which was bought by father and son when he came back from a business trip in England in his second year of high school. Each of them bought a scarf. The color is different, but the style is exactly the same. It looks like a couple's outfit...

Seeing all of this in the box at the moment made Shao Rong feel like a knife was twisting his heart.

It's hard to imagine what kind of mood Shao Changgeng packed this suitcase.

He folded the clothes one by one, put them in the box one by one, and let Shao Rong take the whole package away... Does this mean that since then, he has completely let go of the treasure he once held in his hand?

Because I gave up completely, that's why I can be so relentless... Empty all the things in the closet?

Shao Rong squatted down and scooped out the scarf of the same style that father and son bought together from the box.

Gently put the scarf on your face and feel the comfortable friction brought by the soft fabric.

Like that person's hand, warm and safe.

Shao Rong still remembers the day when he bought the scarf, on that cold snowy night, he gently held his hand, and the two of them interlocked their fingers, walking side by side on the winter street.

At that time, I didn't feel anything special, but now I think about it... But I feel that the scene was so warm that it made people cry.

The picture of holding hands and walking like that will never happen again in the future.

After a long time, Shao Rong stood up, zipped up the suitcase, scooped up the folder and the scarf on the table, turned and walked out the door.

He didn't want to take those clothes away.

Each piece of clothing can bring out a happy memory, and it will be even more uncomfortable to wear when you are alone in the future.

So, just take this scarf as a souvenir...

Taking a last look at his bedroom, Shao Rong put the key on the table in the living room, then turned around and walked out the door silently.

Hearing the sound of the door being locked, Shao Rong thought, maybe he would never have the chance to walk in here again.

When I returned to the villa in the western suburbs in the afternoon, I saw Chen Linlin was busy in the house with a towel tied around her head and an apron.

The house was cleaned by her from scratch, and it looked brand new.

The glass windows were wiped clean, the floor was mopped spotless, the cobwebs in the corners were swept down by her, and even the dust on the walls was cleaned by her.The sofa, quilt cover, and even the curtains were all scooped down and washed, and the pieces of fabric were hung out in the yard, looking spectacular like a dyeing workshop.

Shao Rong walked into the room and was stunned for a while before saying: "Linlin, I should do these things, you..."

Chen Linlin stretched out her hand to untie the towel that bound her hair, smiled and said, "You're welcome, I live in your house for nothing, and if I do some coolies, it's my rent." After a pause, "By the way, you put the 200 yuan on the table. I scooped up the yuan and used it as I borrowed from you. I ran out of money to buy brooms, washing powder and so on, so I had to scoop up yours first. I wanted to say hello to you, but you couldn’t get through the phone.”

Shao Rong smiled: "It's okay, I went out to withdraw a sum of cash today, you don't have to pay me back the 200 yuan, and you can borrow money from me later if you want to use it."

Chen Linlin was silent for a while, Shao Rong, who forced a smile like this, suddenly made her feel very strange.

She was a little curious about the reason why Shao Rong came out to live alone, but it was difficult for her to ask such related questions.

Seeing the IELTS report card in his hand, Chen Linlin suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, are you still planning to go abroad to study medicine?"

Shao Rong thought for a while and said, "Yes."

Chen Linlin said: "I received a text message from the school today, asking us to go to the school to evaluate scores and apply for volunteers tomorrow. Have you received it?"

"No." Shao Rong took out the phone from his pocket suspiciously, and found that the screen of the phone was black. "Maybe my phone is out of battery and I didn't see the text message. What did the school say?"

"The teacher said to look at the answers tomorrow, estimate the score, and then give us three days to report. I contacted Jinnian, and he said that the three of us will go together tomorrow morning."

Shao Rong nodded, "Yes."

Chen Linlin was silent for a while, "You know, I originally planned to study abroad with my mother, so I didn't even consider going to university in China, but now..." After a pause, "Now, my mother is gone, I am alone There is no way to adapt abroad, so after thinking about it, I decided to apply to a domestic school.”

"..." Shao Rong looked at her suspiciously, but didn't realize what she meant for a while.

Chen Linlin continued: "Also, Jinnian's grandfather passed away this morning. He didn't get through to you, so he called me. He said that his parents would not let him go abroad and told him to study management in China for four years. He joined the Xu family's company to help, his grandfather seemed to have left him a lot of shares in his will, so he decided to stay in China to study..."

"...Yes, is it?" Shao Rong was startled.

In other words, Chen Linlin and Xu Jinnian cannot go abroad?

The scene when the three of them discussed studying in the UK in the future is still vivid in my memory. At that time, Chen Linlin's mother was still there, Xu Jinnian's grandfather was not dead, and Shao Rong and Shao Changgeng were still the closest father and son.

At that time, the three of them were full of the best fantasies about the future. Xu Jinnian said that when the three of them went to England together, they could rent a house outside and buy their own vegetables every day and come back to cook... Chen Linlin laughed at him and asked him to go ahead Let's talk in English.

Then, they worked hard for their dreams together. In order to pass the IELTS test, they went to bed late and woke up early every day, and spent twice as much time reading English as other students in the class.

But now, it has become such a situation.

Two friends who originally proposed to study abroad could not go abroad due to their own reasons.

Instead he...

In order to go abroad to fall out with Shao Changgeng, and even severed the relationship between father and son, did he pay such a high price in return for him to go on the road alone?

Seeing Shao Rong's pale face, Chen Linlin lowered her head and said softly: "Shao Rong, I'm sorry, we agreed to go abroad together, but with so many things happening at home, I'm not in the mood anymore. Now I just want to finish college in China. Find a stable job."

"...I understand." Shao Rong nodded stiffly.

"If you really decide to go abroad, you should take care of yourself abroad. I'm really sorry... Shao Rong."

Shao Rong was silent for a moment, and then said: "It's okay, you didn't expect these things to happen." Feeling even worse, Shao Rong changed the subject and said, "Have you decided which school to apply to?"

Chen Linlin said: "I want to apply to the foreign language department of S University. I may learn a small language so that I can find a job."

S University is the school Shao Chen attended, the most famous key university in the locality.

Shao Rong nodded, "Then, what about Jinnian?"

"He probably won't go out of town. For locals, the best school is S University. His family will definitely let him study economics. I don't know what to study. We'll talk about it when we meet tomorrow."

"Yeah." Shao Rong nodded.

Chen Linlin hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Actually, the medical school of University S is not bad, and your brother Shao Chen is studying medicine there. Do you want to consider staying..."

Shao Rong didn't answer.

Chen Linlin looked at him worriedly, and continued: "Although studying abroad will have more advantages, I heard that the pressure of foreign medical schools is very high. If you have me and Jinnian, you can at least be a company for you, but you are alone. Going abroad, in such a strange place, is really... too hard."

Shao Rong glanced at her, lowered his head, and said slowly: "It's okay, I'd better... go abroad. I... have no way out."

Looking at his face, Chen Linlin suddenly felt distressed, and couldn't help but want to comfort him, "Shao Rong..."

Shao Rong interrupted her with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of hard work. You and Jinnian will be alumni again in the future. After I go abroad... I will contact you often."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the room, his straight back looked a little unnaturally stiff.

——Why doesn't he want to stay, why doesn't he want to stay by that person's side?

However, his self-esteem did not allow him to make such a concession.

After all, that person forcibly hurt him regardless of his wishes, and then mercilessly severed relations with him, and even removed him from the Shao family's household registration.

What face does he have to stay in this city?What face do you have to go to Brother Shao Chen's school to study?

There are familiar people everywhere here, relatives, friends, and classmates. When those people ask him, how should he explain the reason for his change of hukou?

If I went to S University, how would I face Shao Chen?When Shao Chen, who didn't know anything about all this, pulled himself to introduce "this is my brother" to others, what kind of expression should he make?

Since Shao Changgeng cleanly cut him off as necrotic tissue, he could only choose to leave.

He once heard a saying that the departure of the leaves was not for the pursuit of freedom, but because of the abandonment of the tree.

In order to store nutrients to survive the cold winter, trees will not hesitate to abandon the leaves that depend on him for survival, because the leaves at this time have become dispensable and wasteful of nutrients for him.

But he seems to have forgotten that in the hottest summer, that leaf worked so hard to create nutrients for him and block the sun.

The author has something to say: Poor little Rongrong, I really want to hug him and touch his head~

Papa Shao: Just leave this kind of movement to me.

Author: The problem is that if you don’t do it, Xiaorong is delivered to your door and you actually leave, you bastard ==

Papa Shao: ...
