Goodbye, Mr. Mu

Although it was agreed the day before that Chai Fei would accompany Mu Huaizhang to work, but at the end of the day, Mu Huaizhang still did not wake up the sleeping Chai Fei.

At the end of midwinter, the air in the whole city is filled with chill, and the humidity makes the chill cling to people, which cannot be driven away for a long time.Mu Huaizhang closed the car window, turned on the heater, and was about to start the car to go out when he received a text message from Chai Fei.

At that time, Chai Fei was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of his home facing the street. He was wearing a thin blanket that he picked up casually. He pulled the blanket tightly, and in his hand was the old message that had just been sent out telling Mu Huaizhang to be careful on the road. Feeling the vibration of the phone, he lowered his head and opened the new message - it was from Mu Huaizhang.

"Are you awake? I saw you were in a deep sleep, so I didn't call you."

Chai Fei pursed his lips after reading it. In fact, when Mu Huaizhang got up, he was already awake. He listened to Mu Huaizhang washing up, and listened to Mu Huaizhang calling to arrange work. He was talking about arranging a meeting. Two hours later, he had to go home.Mu Huaizhang's phone call was not long, and he hung up after two or three sentences of explanation, but he was called again, and the ward told him: "Chai Fei was just discharged from the hospital. I sent him out to catch a cold. I have been with him for the past few days. Stay at home and not go to the company."

Chai Fei could hear clearly from the bed, what Mu Huaizhang said was always reasonable.

His own body was not as good as he imagined, it was just a little better than the pain he had experienced before.So when Mu Huaizhang told him that he could be discharged from the hospital, Chai Fei didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

But if you think about it carefully, it should be a good thing.

After all, there is no need to stay in that small, boxy space, counting the days every day; smelling the smell of disinfectant, and dragging Mu Huaizhang to share a bed with him.As for how long you can live and how many days you have left, it doesn't seem to be that important anymore.

Chai Fei lowered his head and replied to Mu Huaizhang: "It's okay, I want to sleep a little longer."

Taking advantage of the red light, Mu Huaizhang glanced at the message from Chaifei, and quickly sent a voice: "Sleep, when you wake up, I'll make you lunch."

"Then I want a lean meat porridge, I don't want to eat white rice porridge." Chai Fei said coquettishly.

"Just got home, have you started ordering?" Although Mu Huaizhang said so, he still replied "OK", and Chaifei put down the phone contentedly.

Chai Fei sat on the sofa and looked left and right. Like the owner who hasn’t returned home for a long time, he surveyed the whole room, and finally his eyes fell on the book "Reaching Kyoto" on the small coffee table at hand. The bookmark was still pressed. In terms of the original number of pages, there seems to be no change from before, except for a thin layer of dust on the book cover, it seems to be the same as when he left home to go to the horse farm that day.

In the racecourse, it seems that it happened yesterday, but when I think about it carefully, it turns out that it has been a long time.

But when talking about the racecourse, Chai Fei remembered something. He took out his mobile phone and called Cheng Haifeng directly.

It wasn't Cheng Haifeng who answered the phone over there, and Chai Fei choked up the question he was about to blurt out after a "Hello" from the boy on the other side.

But before Chai Fei could speak, he heard Cheng Haifeng's voice from a distance: "Ask him what's the matter?"

This little boy, Chai Fei, has met several times. He probably has been with Cheng Haifeng for a long time among the people he knows. Chai Fei originally thought that since Cheng Haifeng believed the little boy's words, he would be fine, but he didn't expect the little boy. Unexpectedly, he threw the phone to Cheng Haifeng, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Say it yourself."

Cheng Haifeng looked at the child in front of him, curled his lips helplessly, and answered the phone: "Xiao Fei?"

"En." Chai Fei responded in a low voice.

"What's the matter, I'm calling early in the morning." Cheng Haifeng's tone was still casual, "Could it be that Mu Dalu bullied you? A person like him shouldn't be."

Chai Fei answered with Cheng Haifeng's "tsk": "It's really not, after all, not everyone is like you, only loves money."

"You can't talk nonsense, Xiaofei." Cheng Haifeng cleared his throat, "I don't just love money. Then tell me, what's the matter, it's worth calling early in the morning."

Chai Fei said unhurriedly: "Lin Mu."

"What's wrong?" Cheng Haifeng's expression froze on the other end of the phone

"What does he want to do?" Chai Fei was straightforward.

But Cheng Haifeng started to pretend to be stupid: "How would I know what he wants to do?"

"Then let me ask it another way. What does he want Mu Huaizhang to do for him?"

"What?" Cheng Haifeng asked back.

"Brother Feng, I don't have the energy to guess these things anymore," Chai Fei's voice slowed down, "Mu Huaizhang shouldn't be involved, it was originally a matter between me and Lin Mu..."

"It's late." Cheng Haifeng sighed, "Don't you know what kind of person Lin Mu is? But... the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge, so don't think about it, just take good care of yourself."

"..." Before Chai Fei finished his last words, Cheng Haifeng suppressed him.Cheng Haifeng took the opportunity to hang up the phone, probably because he was afraid that if Chai Fei said a few more soft words, he would not be able to help telling the whole story of Mu Huaizhang's plan.

Chai Fei hung up the phone, and started to do nothing. He took out the cheesecake in the refrigerator, smelled it, and put it back; he inspected Mu Huaizhang's cloakroom, straightened the bouquet on the table, and then held the book on the coffee table. Read a few pages.Unexpectedly, the winter sun shone in through the white window screens, and it was so warm that Chai Fei fell asleep in a blink of an eye.

His energy is far less than before, but he didn't expect that he would not hold on for a while, the book was still in his arms, but he curled up on the sofa and fell asleep.

So much so that when he was asleep, he didn't even know the phone call came.The phone lit up in my arms, and then went dark again after 40 seconds.

Not long after, the screen of Mu Huaizhang's mobile phone also lit up. Mu Huaizhang frowned as he watched the call from his mother-in-law appearing on the screen. He made eye contact with Suicui before leaving the conference room to answer the phone .

Not knowing what Chai Mu and Mu Huaizhang had said, Mu Huaizhang who hung up the phone called Chai Fei.

Chai Fei will be woken up by the sound of rain outside the window, sleepy for a while, and when he hears the phone vibrating, he slides it on and connects it.There was a strong nasal voice in the words: "Hello?"

"Woke you up?" Mu Huaizhang's voice was very soft.

"No, it's raining, just woke up." Chai Fei looked up out of the window, "What's wrong, Mr. Mu?"

"It's nothing." Mu Huaizhang paused and said, "Your mother said that no one answered your phone, and she was afraid that something would happen to you, so I said I'll give it a try."

"Oh. I fell asleep just now." Chai Fei took off the phone, turned on the speakerphone, and kept his eyes on the missed call, "I'll call her back."

"If you don't want to talk to her, I can..."

Before Mu Huaizhang finished speaking, Chai Fei interrupted: "No, she really fell asleep. If she doesn't make things difficult for you, she will always be my mother."

Of course, the premise is not to embarrass Mu Huaizhang, although there is nothing to embarrass Mu Huaizhang, his Mr. Mu has always been an invincible figure, at least in Chai Fei's muddled life, he is indeed a god who descends.

Let his messy life turn into a sunny day.

"Okay, she told me that she wants to see you, if you, want to, let her come home," Mu Huaizhang instructed, "make an appointment and tell me, I can pick her up, you don't want to go out , Chai Fei; the temperature outside has dropped, maybe it will rain or snow, don’t catch a cold.”

Chai Fei looked at the rain outside the window, and gave a light "hmm": "Don't rush home, it's raining, be careful of slipping."

"Understood, don't go barefoot, it's cold at home." Mu Huaizhang still had a worried tone.

Chai Fei also had the same anxiety: "Put your scarf on when you leave, don't forget it in the office."

"Chai Fei." Mu Huaizhang said helplessly.

Chai Fei: "What's wrong?"

"I'm telling you." Mu Huaizhang said earnestly, "You have just been discharged from the hospital, and the doctor doesn't want you to go back to see him so soon."

"I know, I know!" Chai Fei replied, more like perfunctory, but he did return to the bed obediently, wrapped the quilt up, "I'm wrapping myself tightly now! Don't worry, just focus on work!"

This was not enough, Mu Huaizhang asked Chai Fei to take a picture of himself, and then he gave up after confirming that he was tightly wrapped.

Chai Fei hung up Mu Huaizhang's phone, hesitated for a while, and swiped his finger on the screen for a long time, but still didn't dial Chai Mu's number.

He didn't seem to know how to say the first sentence to his mother. After all, they had a very stiff fight in the hospital yard last time.Chai Fei is not the kind of person who forgets things in a blink of an eye and is careless, or he just hasn't figured out how to face his mother.

But for the step he didn't take, someone will.

Chai Fei's phone vibrates again, saying that Chai's mother is calling again.

Chai Fei didn't miss it this time, and he picked it up.

The call suddenly quieted down, and the mother and son on both sides of the phone fell silent at the same time.

The clock hanging in the living room was still ticking, and the second hand was ticking. Chai Fei didn't know how long the time had passed, so he spoke first.

"mom?"
