Zhong Haotian's overzealous gratitude made him a little at a loss. He never thought of getting anything from Zhong Haotian, and the only way to help was to win Mrs. He's favor and to do what he liked.

"A glass of orange juice, thank you." Ian sat at the bar and said to the waiter.

Lu Licheng took a sip of beer and looked at Ian with playful eyes.

"My wife asked me to quit drinking." Ian saw Lu Licheng's gaze and explained helplessly.

"It's understandable to quit smoking, but quit drinking?" Both he and Ian are people who want to talk about business, and Chinese people are most particular about drinking and talking about relationships.Whether in business or with friends, quitting alcohol is easier said than done.

"My wife said that the business can be discussed again and the health can't be broken. She is also doing it for me." Ian sighed and continued, "You will know when you have a wife in the future."

This is the married man?Lu Licheng thought.Getting married and starting a business is deeply ingrained in the Chinese people's concept.He was more than [-] years old, and almost all of his friends, colleagues and classmates got married, had children and started families.Not to mention that Ian always reminds himself from time to time that he should find a woman to start a family, even his colleagues occasionally joke about it.Perhaps because of his independent personality since he was a child, his family didn't mention it much, they knew he had his own plans.

"Hey, my son always stuffs things in his mouth after teething." Ian just received a text message from his wife Xiaozhuang, blaming him for mishandling the lighter and the child almost bit the lighter.

"Children have teeth like this." Lu Licheng answered sullenly after taking a sip of beer.

Ever since Ian had a family, talking to him has become less and less common.When they met in the past, they always discussed which PUB was better or where to play next time.But now that Ian keeps talking about his children and his wife, Lu Licheng feels that he and Ian will have less and less conversations in the future, not only Ian but also a few friends of his age are like this.However, fortunately, Lu Licheng is not a lively person.I usually rest at home, and I also like to read quietly alone, study new dishes, or drive to the gym by myself.What's more, the satisfaction brought by work is still very fulfilling.

"What happened to Zhong Haotian?" Ian suddenly asked.

"It's nothing, there's no need to change it. It's just a little misunderstanding a while ago." Lu Licheng saw the last time he saw Zhong Haotian last time before Lu Licheng's eyes, and he couldn't help smiling when he saw him and the child hugging each other through the mirror.

Furthermore, now that the child is sent to Mrs. He's kindergarten, it is even more impossible to change Zhong Haotian for the sake of Mrs. He's face.Regarding the decoration, Zhong Haotian did not neglect either.Therefore, Lu Licheng chose to continue hiring Zhong Haotian.

"It's fine. I heard that you helped Haotian solve the child's kindergarten problem? Tsk, I didn't realize that you are so nice." When Zhong Haotian told Ian about this, Ian couldn't believe his ears.How could he and Lu Licheng have been friends for so many years without knowing his temper.Could it be that as people get older, their temper changes?

"It's just a little effort, didn't you say that their father and son are quite pitiful." He twisted a peanut and put it in his mouth.

Seeing Ian's surprised expression, he knew that his old classmate must not believe that he was so kind.Although in fact it is not that simple, people who are defined as mercenary are still not very happy.

"It's really pitiful." Ian nodded, "Zhong Haotian is several years younger than us. The first time I saw him in Xiamen, he was really a young talent. He not only has thick eyebrows and big eyes like a star, but also is very talented. And it’s not as old-fashioned as it looks now, and it’s very playful. When we worked together before, he took us around Xiamen. The little assistant I took with me had a crush on him. No one thought that it would become like this ..." Thinking of Zhong Haotian's previous appearance, Ian said regretfully.

"So people are realistic, and so are women. Does your little assistant still have a crush on him now?" Lu Licheng said while watching a football game on TV while resting his chin.

The Zhong Haotian described by Ian is the one that Lu Licheng doesn't know, but he can imagine that Zhong Haotian's appearance is undoubtedly handsome, and this kind of appearance is very attractive to girls.He recalled that day, the way he quietly sketched in the COM restaurant.If there were no sudden changes, Zhong Haotian would be the focus of everyone's attention wherever he went.But now, he is not only physically disabled but also leads a sick child to live a tight life.Even connecting to his ordinary decoration case, he has that kind of panic attitude as if he is afraid of losing his job...

He could survive the feeling of falling from heaven to hell in less than a year.Thinking of this, Lu Licheng felt admiration for Zhong Haotian.If it were me, I might not be able to accept the reality calmly in such a short time like him.

"You can't say that. Which woman is willing to follow a single father and is also disabled. You can't say that women are too realistic, but that reality has to make people realistic." Ian disagreed.

"Didn't your wife tell you to quit drinking?" Turning around, Ian secretly ordered a glass of dark beer and drank it.

"I can't hold it anymore, a glass of beer is nothing." Ian gulped down the beer as if he didn't finish the glass after drinking it.

"Look at your useless look." Lu Licheng couldn't help rolling Ian's eyes.

Although the former Ian was not a playboy, he never lacked a girlfriend.He likes adventure sports, loves to play, and is humorous. Although he looks ordinary, he is also a successful person with full of charm.How come after getting married, he becomes a different world from him?Like a middle-aged man, he hides every drink he takes. If you don't want to quit drinking, it's no big deal not to quit drinking.

Walking out of the bar, Lu Licheng stretched himself.Looking up at the starry sky in Shanghai today, the cool wind blew away his drunkenness.Tomorrow will be another tough battle, but being able to talk about RU's acquisition plan has shocked the entire MG company.Thinking of Olive's expression when congratulating him, Lu Licheng felt very happy.From passive to active, he doesn't have to rush to stand in line.Perhaps if it can be said that he wants to establish his own school in the company in the future, this acquisition plan has undoubtedly become a major contribution to his MG company.Maybe next year today, he will not be in Shanghai but watching the starry sky on the streets of New York.

The mall was crowded with people.Today is the weekend, Zhong Haotian took An An to buy some equipment for kindergarten.

An An was finally able to go to kindergarten, and Zhong Haotian was so excited that he couldn't sleep at the thought of this.When the kindergarten took the initiative to contact him, he still couldn't believe it was true.Butterfly Kindergarten is a well-known and old-fashioned kindergarten in Shanghai. Only many celebrities and high-class children can enter.Originally, Zhong Haotian planned to use his savings to pay for An's tuition, but he didn't expect that the kindergarten exempted his sponsorship fee and miscellaneous fees, saying that it was Mrs. He's intention.He was grateful for Mrs. He's help, and even more grateful for Lu Licheng's help.Without Lu Licheng, An An would never have been able to go to such a good kindergarten.

Holding the list of supplies faxed to him by the kindergarten, Zhong Haotian went back and forth to choose from the children's products counter.Crayons, watercolor pens, erasers, pencil cases, small handkerchiefs, etc., he bought the best for Ann.After shopping around for a long time, I bought several sets of new clothes for my children at the counter.

"Dad, I want to eat ice cream." An An was held in Zhong Haotian's arms and hugged her father's neck, drooling when she saw the ice cream shop in the mall.

Zhong Haotian shook his head, but bought An An a cup of milk tea to comfort the child.The weather in Shanghai has been erratic recently, and if you bully An An with ice cream, she will definitely have a stomachache.An An stood beside her father with her mouth pouting. Seeing children of the same age chasing and playing, her eyes were a little envious.Of course Zhong Haotian knew what An An was thinking, and rubbed the child's hair distressedly.The child stays at home alone for a long time and looks forward to playing games with his peers. How could he not understand?Therefore, his guilt towards An An cannot be expressed in words.But now it’s better, when An An enters kindergarten in a few days, he can have many children playing games with him, and he will no longer be lonely and envious of other children.

When he got home, Zhong Haotian opened the mailbox to receive the letter and found that Yang Zhenzhen had replied to him a letter, basically saying that he was very happy that An An could go to kindergarten, and asked him to take care of his health.He knows that Yang Zhenzhen also has his own difficulties abroad. After language school, he has to take professional courses and work part-time. It is also very difficult to bring up a child.Now An An can go to kindergarten, which is the best.

"Dad, I want to bring story books to kindergarten." An An was very happy knowing that he was going to kindergarten soon. He wanted to have new friends for a long time.

Zhong Haotian nodded with a smile, and put a few newly bought story coloring books into An An's small schoolbag.

Since An An knew that she was going to kindergarten, her personality has become more lively.All of this is thanks to Lu Licheng.Zhong Haotian always wanted to repay Lu Licheng, at least treat him to a meal first.But the next day, he was told that he had flown to Milan for a business trip, and asked Ian if he wanted to buy something for him. Ian said that Lu Licheng didn't lack anything, as long as he thought about it.Later, Zhong Haotian offered to design a new house for Lu Licheng for free, but was politely declined by Lu Licheng who had just returned to Shanghai. Lu Licheng said that he was just doing a little favor.Under such circumstances, Zhong Haotian could not express his gratitude to Lu Licheng. Ian told him to look at it calmly, saying that buying a small gift would be enough.However, it was no small favor for him.

"Dad, can I take the pictures I drew?" An An trotted into the room holding the pictures she drew again.

Zhong Haotian hugged An An and kissed the child's cheek.He hadn't been this happy and relaxed in a long time since the surgery and the death of his mother.

'Elliott, the material list has been mailed to your mailbox, please check it. Lu Licheng, who was working, saw the MSN message bar pop up, it was Zhong Haotian.

'It has been received, and I will reply you after noon. Lu Licheng refreshed his mailbox and replied to him immediately.

'Elliott, are you free this weekend?I would like to treat you to a meal. I am really grateful that you can help send An An to kindergarten. After a while, a line of words popped out of Zhong Haotian's message box.

As soon as Lu Licheng returned to Shanghai, he received no less than five text messages from Zhong Haotian, all of which were thankful to him and wanted to treat him to dinner.He didn't intend to avoid Zhong Haotian, it was because he was too busy with work.Originally, he wanted to spare time to agree to Zhong Haotian, but he didn't expect the other party to offer to decorate his new house for free.Of course, in the eyes of others, he may have picked up a big bargain.However, agreeing to Zhong Haotian's request because of this busyness made him seem stingy.However, Zhong Haotian gave him extra overtime, and he could only agree to the request to confiscate other service fees, otherwise Zhong Haotian texted himself almost every day to ask himself if he was free for dinner or asked himself what other requirements his new house had. Ian also told him, at least respond to make Zhong Haotian feel better.

'It's seven o'clock on Saturday night, I'm off that day. Lu Licheng sighed and said back to Zhong Haotian.He knew that if he didn't agree to Zhong Haotian, Zhong Haotian would feel uneasy.

'Does Elliott like seafood?What about Sichuan cuisine?Or Shanghai local cuisine? 'Sure enough, Zhong Haotian quickly replied to himself.

'Sichuan cuisine. 'Lu Licheng chose a cuisine with a compromise price.

'Okay, then I won't bother you.After reviewing the list, please reply me if you have any questions. '

Lu Licheng smiled and shook his head, Zhong Haotian's overly enthusiastic gratitude made him a little at a loss.He never thought about getting anything from Zhong Haotian, and he only wanted to win Mrs. He's favor and do what he liked by helping him.Forget it, Zhong Haotian should feel much more comfortable after this meal, Lu Licheng thought so.

Spring in Shanghai is like a naughty child. Today, the sun is high and the sky is bright, and the wind is cold and fierce.In yesterday's weather, Lu Licheng, who was obviously hot, only wore a shirt to work in the office, but now it is cold, he fastened his suit jacket.I was in a hurry to go out in the morning and forgot to check the weather forecast.Lu Licheng regretted that he didn't put a thin cashmere sweater in the office.

The meeting in the morning lasted for a long time, and there were still a few clients to meet in the afternoon.Sitting at the desk, Lu Licheng checked the temperature of his forehead with his hand, and it seemed that he had started to have a fever.Immediately asked his colleague to take a few antipyretics for himself. He knew that although it didn't work, it would last until he finished seeing the client.

When he was in Beijing in the early years, because he was busy with work and felt a little uncomfortable, he liked to take strong pills to suppress his body, which caused his body to develop resistance to ordinary medicines. The hospital drips.But this afternoon's client had to be entertained, so Lu Licheng decided to press it first and then go to the hospital by himself.

What he didn't expect was that his illness came sooner than expected.After meeting the first client, he was so burned that he couldn't stand still.But the following customers all made appointments long ago, and they smeared some wind oil essence on themselves to survive.

After get off work, Lu Licheng took a taxi with his social security card and went to the hospital in the city center to see a doctor.Originally, his assistant Shally wanted to accompany him to the hospital, but there were still a lot of translation documents for the acquisition plan that had not been completed. Lu Licheng asked her to go back to work.

Walking into the hospital, Lu Licheng realized that he was seriously ill this time.He used to have a fever and he could register to see a doctor, but this time he dazedly leaned against the wall and walked all the way to the emergency room.

"First hang two bottles of salt water, and then give a fever-reducing injection. I will prescribe some medicine for you, and pay attention to rest and drink plenty of water when you go back. Take the medical record card, and the next one..." After the doctor in the emergency room made the diagnosis, he wrote on the medical record card Complete the condition and the prescribed medicine.

Holding the medical record card, Lu Licheng was top-heavy, and he couldn't even see the sign on which floor to hang up the drip.He hasn't been sick like this for several years, and he regrets not letting Shally come with him, so he can get a medicine for him anyway.Holding the medical record card and the prescription, I went to the pharmacy with my feverish body to get the salt water and prescribed medicine, and then slowly leaned on the wall to find the IV room.

Zhong Haotian was a little worried when he didn't receive Lu Licheng's letter in the afternoon.Lu Licheng kept saying that when he would reply, he would definitely not delay.Zhong Haotian sent another text message to ask, but there was no response.I can only text Ian to ask what's going on.

After a while, Ian got a reply saying that Lu Licheng was on an intravenous drip at the hospital and could only reply to his letter tomorrow.

Seeing that Ian said that Lu Licheng was ill, Zhong Haotian was naturally very concerned and wanted to see him. Ian felt that such a trivial matter as a fever would be over after hanging up the drip. Besides, he was preparing for the government case these days. Where would he have time to see Lu Licheng? He asked Lu Licheng to go home and sleep well during the call.But Zhong Haotian is different, for him, Lu Licheng is kind to him.Under Zhong Haotian's repeated request, Ian thought for a while that Zhong Haotian should really go to see Lu Licheng, so he gave the address of Lu Licheng's hospital.

It was already 07:30 in the evening when we arrived at the hospital.There are not many people in the long corridor of the hospital.Before Zhong Haotian went out, he entrusted An An to Mr. Song again. If it weren't for Lu Licheng, he would never let An An stay at someone else's house again.

In the IV room, several elderly people were receiving IV drips. Their mouths were sore from the pain, and some of the children around them were reading and others were sitting and dozing off.In addition to the smell of disinfectant in the room, there is also a greasy smell unique to the elderly.Zhong Haotian sniffed, glanced at the infusion room, and found Lu Licheng hanging salt water alone in the corner.

In Zhong Haotian's mind, Lu Licheng will always be a capable and strong existence.But at this moment, Lu Licheng, who was slumped on the chair with his eyes closed, looked extremely fragile.Seeing that more than half of Lu Licheng's salt water bottle hadn't been hung up yet, his face was flushed abnormally and beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead.

Afraid of disturbing Lu Licheng's rest, he quietly sat down beside him.

"Hmm..." Lu Licheng, who was sleeping on the chair, suddenly spat out faintly, and turned over because of his physical discomfort but did not wake up.Zhong Haotian reached out and touched Lu Licheng's forehead. Even though he drank salt water, it was still hot. In addition to the fever, he was still wearing a suit, and it was very uncomfortable to be wrapped in sweat.

Lu Licheng, who was sleeping in the dark, was in a state of ice and fire. Because of the fever, his whole body was chilled, but his body was sweating profusely.The only consciousness I had was to remind myself to see if the salt water had been hung up, and I couldn't open my eyes after trying a few times.Suddenly, he felt a chill on his forehead, which made him feel better. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhong Haotian wiping his forehead with sterile cotton.

"Why are you here?" Lu Licheng, who was half lying on the chair, asked without the strength to sit up.

Seeing Lu Licheng wake up, Zhong Haotian stopped and pointed to the phone.Lu Licheng immediately understood that it was Ian who told him, nodded to show that he understood what he meant, wanted to say something more, and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

The wind started to blow violently outside, and it was extremely cold in Shanghai today.While Lu Licheng was still asleep, Zhong Haotian went to the supermarket downstairs in the inpatient department to buy some mineral water, a blanket and a few crystal pears.I asked the nurse, and after the drip, I still have to take Lu Licheng to get a fever-reducing injection. I don't know when I can go back, so I sent a text message to Teacher Song, saying that An An might have to trouble her to take care of her all night.Although Lu Licheng asked Zhong Haotian to go back first in a daze, how could he rest assured that he was so ill.

Lu Licheng, who was still on the chair with an IV, thought that Zhong Haotian had already gone back.I looked at the salt water bottle, there was still a little half left, my throat was so dry that smoke was coming out, I thought about getting another injection later.There are two meetings waiting for him tomorrow, I don't know if he can finish them smoothly.Touching his forehead, he felt that the fever had not subsided much.

When he opened his eyes again, he was gently patted awake by Zhong Haotian.

"Why didn't you go back?" Lu Licheng asked feebly.

The other party smiled, and handed a tube to his mouth for him to drink.Lu Licheng, who had been thirsty for a long time, felt much better after taking a few sips of water.Zhong Haotian covered Lu Licheng with the blanket he bought, and peeled a crystal pear for him.

People who are sick may be more sensitive. Today, after spending a whole day in the hospital alone, Zhong Haotian's care for him moved him very much, even though he knew that the other party was just out to thank him.

It was late at night after the IV was administered, and there were only some seriously ill elderly people still on the IV in the hospital.Just after eating some fruit, Lu Licheng felt a little better. He propped up his body, but he still wobbled when he walked. The fever had not completely subsided, and his ears were buzzing.Zhong Haotian hurried forward and supported Lu Licheng.

Lu Licheng has always been strong and never showed weakness, but today he can only let Zhong Haotian support him to get an injection.

Accompanying Lu Licheng after the injection, let him lie down in his car, and wanted to ask him the exact hotel address but couldn't wake up the patient who fell asleep again.I looked at my watch, it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.I still can't let go of An An, and I still don't feel at ease about letting the child spend the night at someone else's house.

After thinking about it, Zhong Haotian drove towards his home...
