[First time] Burn it, brother-in-law!

Ah Ci leaned on the hospital bed with a dark face, and glanced at his watch from time to time, feeling that he had waited to the limit.

After several knocks on the door, he immediately sat up straight, shouting "Please come in" with a little excitement in his voice.

However, when Ah Chu walked in, he curled his lips, lowered his eyes and moved back, leaning back on the pillow.

"Yo, are you so disappointed to see me?" Ah Chu raised his eyebrows, "Tell me, who do you want to see?"

"As long as it's not you, anyone will do." Ah Ci pushed back bluntly.

"Have I hindered you? You can smoke if you want..." Ah Chu tilted his head, looked at his younger brother's angry face, and couldn't help laughing, "Or, are there no more cigarettes?"

Ask knowingly!The pack of cigarettes in his pocket was enough for two days at most, so he must have run out of ammunition and food by now.Ah Ci glared at him, feeling that the smile was not flattering at first glance, so he simply turned his head and looked out the window.

"Waiting for someone to bring you cigarettes?" Ah Chu asked curiously, "Why didn't you ask me to buy them?"

Ah Ci hesitated, and softened his tone: "Will you buy it for me?"

"No." Ah Chu replied without hesitation.

Just knew it was so!Ah Ci pursed his lips, leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes to rest his mind, not bothering to talk to him anymore.

"For the sake of your lungs, quit smoking while you are in the hospital." Ah Chu paused, and then said, "Smoking will also increase the risk of hair loss, and you don't want to be like your father in another ten years. Bar?"

"Thinking too much like you makes it easy to become a father." Ah Ci said unhurriedly with his eyes closed.

Just as he was talking, Liu Yunpu rushed in at a trot, panting before he could stand still, and said, "Ah Ci, I'm sorry, I didn't bring my wallet with me when I bought the cigarettes, so I went back to get them... Oh, my brother is here too!"

Ah Chu smiled and nodded, watching Liu Yunpu hand over two boxes of Zhonghua to Ah Ci as if offering a treasure.

Ah Ci frowned: "Only two boxes? Is it a hard box? It's only 100 yuan at most. I can forgive you 500 yuan!"

Liu Yunpu looked distressed: "I'm so poor that I'm about to take off my pants."

Ah Ci had a stinky face, although he was unhappy, some vaping was better than nothing!After opening a box and smoking it, I immediately felt comfortable all over my body.Turning around, he found that his elder brother was still in the room, and hurriedly gestured: "Take it to the door, thank you!"

Unexpectedly, Ah Chu didn't bicker with him as usual, and smiled lightly: "Then I'll come and see you at night." After speaking, he walked out and obediently closed the door behind him.

"Ah Ci, to be honest, I have always felt that you two brothers are not like twins." Liu Yunpu said seriously, "Even if you are brothers, you still act like your elder brother. Your elder brother is polite and polite. You really have a good temper." !"

Ah Ci gave him a sideways glance: "Really? When we met for the first time, you still regarded him as me?"

"Oh, that time I thought you were playing tricks and didn't want to lend me money!"

"I don't want to lend it to you!" Ah Ci took a deep breath of the 250 yuan a box of Zhonghua cigarettes, and the feeling of flesh pain spread all over his body.

……

After Liu Yunpu left, it was a calm afternoon.

Ah Ci was smoking a cigarette, looking at the sunshine outside the window, and suddenly wanted to take a walk in the garden.Or go to the chairman's office, the dean's office, Dr. Yang's office...anywhere is fine, as long as his tour guide can show up in time.

Can't help but think of Ah Chu's expression before closing the door.You don't even mind smoking, have you given up on his business?

He really hates this feeling.My father used to be like this. Whether he was absent from school without reason or fighting with his classmates, the problems that can be solved with money are not the problems anyway.Even if the teacher invites the parents to be replaced by subordinates, the old man is just like a normal person, so naturally he will not discipline his son - the father never knew that Ah Ci's drinking and smoking was just to attract his attention.

So now, whose attention is it trying to attract?Ah Ci looked at the half cigarette in his hand, sighed, extinguished it and threw it into the trash can.

He got out of bed, stepped on his slippers and walked outside.When the knee joint is moved, the wound is slightly painful.After thinking for a while, he still hopped onto the wheelchair with one leg—maybe Ah Chu was right, it would be better to be honest during the recovery period.

He rocked the wheelchair and wandered around the corridor.The innate height advantage is no longer reflected, and he is shorter than others everywhere, which makes him very uncomfortable. He feels that the air he inhales is just exhaled by others.He turned around the inpatient department twice but couldn't find the sign, so he finally gave up on his own exploration, looked up at a passing nurse, and asked about the location of Ah's initial consultation room.

The little nurse was enthusiastic when she saw the handsome guy, and pushed him directly to the destination, knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside.

The little nurse simply pushed the door open: "Hey, no one...he didn't lock the door, so he must not have gone far, why don't you wait here for a while?"

"Okay, thank you." Ah Ci nodded to her, thinking that today's sudden attack is really the right time.

After the little nurse left, Ah Ci casually looked around. It was neat and tidy, no different from ordinary consultation rooms.

He slowly rolled his wheelchair to his desk, and found that the only framed photo on the desk was a photo of him sitting in a police car.The corners of his lips twitched unconsciously. It seems that the little rabbit really likes police cars. Next time he has a chance, let him visit the command car.

There were a few books on the side of the table, and he picked up one casually and flipped through it. The skulls in the illustrations were not aesthetically pleasing... Forget it, no matter how you draw it, it can't compare with the Mona Lisa.He curled his lips and changed to another one, which was the English Bible.He looked a little dizzy, so he had to change to another one, which talked about the six reincarnations of Buddhism—well, it looked a little more normal than a skeleton.

This book is not too thin, and a bookmark is inserted in the 2/3 position.Ah Ci smacked his lips, it's hard to imagine that a guy who doesn't even know "Let the Wind" or "Cuckold" can read more than half of this kind of spiritualism books, and it's not an English translation!

He read a few passages at random, probably saying that when a person is dying, he will see the person he loves the most in his life appear, but in fact it is the old karmic creditor who came to seduce the soul. ledger.This reminded him of the little match girl who lit a match before she died and saw her kind grandmother, and then the grandmother suddenly turned into Xiaoqiang whom she had unintentionally trampled to death before. Xiaoqiang rushed over and bit the girl to death...

Feeling a chill, he stopped reading and turned his attention to the bookmark.

It is not so much a bookmark as it is a piece of cardboard.There is no pattern on it, only eight characters are written.The handwriting is neat and unrestrained, I don't know if it is Ah Chu's handwriting.

Wisdom will be hurt, and deep love will not last.

Ah Ci read it twice in a low voice, lost in thought.Does Ah Chu have to worry about being too clever and affectionate?Doesn't he seem like a wise and infatuated person, or is he too ignorant of his twin brother?

Suddenly, Ah Chu pushed the door open and walked in.Seeing that Ah Ci was taken aback for a moment, he then became amused: "Is there any gain from the raid?"

"I have gained a lot." Ah Ci raised the bookmark in his hand at him, "You also watch Jin Yong?"

"I've only watched "The Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon" and "The Record of Enmity and Enmity with Books and Swords." Ah Chu said as he approached him.

Ah Ci looked down at the bookmark and nodded: "It looks like I copied it from the book sword...why do you like these two sentences?"

"Like is a feeling, there is no reason at all." Ah Chu picked up the water glass and took a sip.The Adam's apple slides up and down, and the neck line is perfect.

Ah Ci raised his eyes to look at him, but he was helplessly sitting in a wheelchair, with too much height difference, so he could only tilt his head up: "Copied these two sentences suddenly, so that people who don't know the truth will think you are pretending to be a pig." Master of the tiger!"

Ah Chu raised his eyebrows: "Really? Then do you think I look like a pig or a tiger?"

"It's not like that at all." Aci said heartily, you are like a rabbit.But this sentence is only limited to the heart, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, so it is better not to run on him, "If you want to talk about tigers, you must at least be like Captain Li; if you want to talk about pigs, you have to move closer to Liu Yunpu's direction."

"A tigress and a pig teammate?" Ah Chu shook his head and laughed, "Little Liu sent you cigarettes all the way, so you're now a pig teammate."

When smoking was mentioned, Ah Ci felt a little uncomfortable: "Do you still want to persuade me to quit smoking?"

"Are you willing to listen to my advice?" Ah Chu leaned against the table and looked at him with a smile.

"Maybe...see if it's convincing."

Ah Chu casually picked up the Bible next to him and said, "Smoking harms others and harms oneself. Is it persuasive that the Bible says that one should not harm the body of others or one's own body?"

"Thank you, I'm not a believer." Ah Ci twitched the corners of his mouth, quite disapproving of his brother's religious beliefs, "By the way, your book on spiritualism crosses religions, a combination of Chinese and Western? Do you believe in Buddhism or Christianity? ?”

"Usually, I believe in myself." Ah Chu smiled confidently.

In Ah Ci's eyes, he was like a rabbit being pulled - no matter how much he pulled, he was still a rabbit after all.

Ah Chu looked at his watch, it was already time to get off work: "I'll take you back to the ward."

Ah Ci gave him a sideways glance: "What are you in a hurry for? Dad doesn't need you to cook dinner."

Ah Chu smiled a little helplessly: "I really have something to do today... Well, I'll come and see you at night when I'm free."

Ah Ci had a premonition that this matter was unusual: "What is it? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"

"I have nothing inconvenient to tell you, but time is a bit rushed now."

"Let's make a long story short."

"...Let's do it next time." Ah Chu smiled and turned behind him, helping him push the wheelchair.

"No need! Let's catch your time." Ah Ci rolled the wheelchair out of the consultation room by himself, and reached the door with his hands free to touch his jacket pocket. Obviously he missed the cigarette case, so he left at a faster pace.

"Promise." Ah Chu smiled and shook his head.

……

Ah Ci was inexplicably unhappy, which caused him to lose his appetite for dinner, so he ate a few mouthfuls before putting it down.

He was very sincere today, and went over to chat in a wheelchair.This big brother is fine, he ran away without saying a few words, completely disregarding the brotherhood... Well, he admits that he is a bit on the top line, but what can it be?The more you keep your mouth shut, the more you want to know!

He checked the time on his phone, it was eleven o'clock.The phrase "Come again when you are free in the evening" is really bullshit.

He jumped out of bed and turned off the light.Back on the bed again, lying facing the window, but couldn't fall asleep.

At 11:50, the doorknob creaked as it turned.Ah Ci immediately turned over and took a look, then closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

He tried his best to make his breathing seem steady, only to realize that pretending to sleep was a very hard work.He felt Ah Chu turn on the light, walked to the bedside, looked at him for a while, reached out to stroke his hair, and whispered in his ear, "Ah Ci, you're up."

Ah Ci opened his eyes a little, frowned, turned over and rushed in: "Don't bother me, I'm angry about getting up."

Ah Chu innocently said: "Can you wake up without falling asleep?"

Ah Ci rolled his eyes, sat up, and said angrily: "I finally fell asleep, so I have something to say."

Ah Chu pushed the wheelchair behind him forward: "Come up, I'll take you to play... By the way, let you know what I did in the afternoon."

"Cut! Who cares why you go..." Ah Ci reluctantly pulled on the leather jacket and put it on.

"You don't need to put on a coat, you're in the hospital." Ah Chu smiled mysteriously.

Just like that, Ah Ci was pushed by Ah Chu through the corridor, onto the elevator, and finally stopped at the door of the chairman's office.

Ah Ci glanced in at the door, and it was indeed more spacious than the dean's office.On the table in the middle was a cake with candles and some fruit.Under the light of candlelight, everything looks hazy and warm.He suddenly remembered...

"Happy birthday." Ah Chu pushed him to the table and whispered in his ear.

"Have fun with each other." Ah Ci breathed a sigh of relief, "You said you were in a rush to prepare for these?"

"Well, I made the cake myself. We haven't had a birthday together for many years..." Ah Chu looked at his watch, "It's almost time, hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles."

Ah Ci nodded, thought for a while, and then blew out the candles together.

Ah Chu pulled out the candle, then cut the cake and handed it to Ah Ci: "I haven't had time to prepare anything else since you were hospitalized, so this cake is my gift to you."

"Give it to me? Then you can't eat it." Ah Ci deliberately put on a regretful expression.

"Well, I won't compete with you, I can make it myself if I want to eat." Ah Chu said with a light smile.

"It tastes really good!" Ah Ci was in a good mood.He stopped eating suddenly, with a bit of embarrassment on his face, "I forgot about my birthday, and I didn't prepare any presents for you."

"Then let me choose anything as a gift!" Ah Chu said cheerfully, met his brother's wary eyes, and quickly added, "Don't worry, I only pick things under 200 yuan."

"It's reasonable." Ah Ci felt that it was reliable, so he nodded and agreed.

He never imagined that Ah Chu would take away his only lighter after sending him back to the ward.
