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

Ah Ci sat in the waiting area, resting his chin on his folded hands, and whispered: "Ah Chu, Ah Chu, Ah Chu..."

Xia Yuechun came over with two cups of coffee, looked at him for a few seconds, and suddenly asked: "Who is the most money-obsessed person in the world?"

"Ah Chu." Ah Cinian complied, and accidentally fell into a trap.By the time he realized it, Xia had already shown a triumphant smile.

"You really listen to him!" Xia Yuechun handed him a cup of coffee and sat down next to him.

Ah Ci took the coffee, but didn't drink it, just stared at the cup in a daze.Suddenly frowned, and said with a little excitement: "I have a feeling! Just now, the back of my head twitched. Shouldn't it be time for an operation?"

"Don't be funny, just pushed it in for a few minutes? It's only time to make a cup of coffee, maybe the anesthetic hasn't taken effect yet!" Xia Yuechun laughed and said, "Even if the proposition of telepathy between identical twins is true, he is in the whole world. There is no feeling at all in the numb state, where do you go to sense it?"

Ah Ci was so choked that he had nothing to say, so he put away his sixth sense and obediently prayed for Ah Chu.But every few minutes, he would stop and ask about the progress of an operation.It was rare for Xia Yuechun to patiently answer all the questions, and he would change the topic from time to time to distract him.It's a pity that Ah Ci was worried and had no interest in listening to Dr. Guan's gossip and those ridiculous jokes.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, Xia Yuechun suggested him to eat something, but Ah Ci shook his head: "I can't eat, let's talk about it when he comes out."

"When he is pushed out, it's time for dinner." Xia Yuechun held the lunch box and said while eating, "It's normal to be worried, but don't express it in the form of physical punishment. You are not the surgeon. It is right to eat or not. At first, there was no difference. But Doctor Guan and the others are so hard-working, such a long operation, you have to stand hungry to the end."

"...Fortunately, my elder brother has changed his career." Ah Ci originally thought that surgery was technical work, but now it seems that it is still physical work.

"When it comes to changing careers, I have always had a question. How did you know that he became the director of the hospital?"

"I happened to overhear him when he confessed to the old man."

"It turned out that he was careless himself! He also caused me to be blamed for a long time." Xia Yuechun shook his head, and then said, "But what does he like to do, do you have to get angry and run away from home when you hear that he is the chairman? "

"It's not just this... I thought he came back to China to fight for the family property, and he also tried to please the old man by transferring me."

"You mean, you ran away from home because of your family property and career?" Xia Yuechun asked in surprise.

Ah Ci frowned, thinking that this reason was too utilitarian, he didn't think that he would turn against his relatives because of fame and fortune.

On this point, Xia Yuechun had the same opinion as him: "But it doesn't make sense. Later, you were willing to transfer jobs and give up your inheritance for Ah Chu, which shows that career and family property are not that important to you. Please recall your feelings at that time , Is the Qiao family really for these chores?"

"No, you didn't understand. At that time, I was angry that his motives for returning to China were not pure."

Xia Yuechun put down the lunch box and continued to ask: "What about now? Why do you think he came back?"

I remember that He Yashu once mentioned that Ah Chu took over the family business entirely to appease his father's anger caused by his leaving, so there is no motive for fighting for the family property.But Ah Chu also said that it was Ya Shu who made him think simply... Ah Ci rubbed his hands, hesitantly said: "After so many years, we have all changed. It is difficult to analyze the thoughts at that time."

Xia Yuechun sized him up, and naturally he didn't let go of the small movements of his hands: "Okay, then let me ask another question. Why did you hope he came back?"

"There is nothing hopeful or unhopeful. I never thought about it."

"Would you like to hear my opinion?" Although it was a polite question, Xia Yuechun didn't wait for Ah Ci to respond, and continued on his own, "You value Ah Chu very much, so he must have been in your heart at that time. The image is quite perfect. But that misunderstanding destroys the perfection in an instant, so you are disillusioned. You hate him for living up to your expectations, and you hate yourself for not knowing people well, and even doubting everything you believe in. In order to stay away from lies , and in order to retaliate against the liar, you chose to run away from home. But Ah Chu never talked to you about the reason for returning to China, so how can it be considered cheating? In fact, that perfect brother never existed, it was just that you combined yourself The observation and expectation of Ah Chu is a beautified product. So when you get the opposite information, you will be completely unable to face him...Maybe at first, you hoped that he would come back for you, right?" Xia Yuechun's gaze behind the lens brought With the meaning of scrutiny, a sharp analysis is like a scalpel cutting through the tissue and pointing at the lesion.

Ah Ci opened his mouth to defend himself, but he didn't know what to say.

Xia Yuechun didn't give him time to sort out his thoughts, and said: "I heard that you confirmed your relationship with your girlfriend the night you missed your home. I believe there must be some kind of connection between these two things. But I can't figure it out. How can you make up for the hurt with love?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" Ah Ci was still worried about Ah Chu in the operating room, and he didn't have the time to play riddles with him at all.

"I just think your style of handling things is... puzzling." Seeing that he was about to irritate people, Xia Yuechun was a little more careful with his words, but this did not mean that the sharp questioning would stop there, "Do you really love me in this life?" Have you ever fucked the opposite sex?"

"No! I was crooked all my life, and I had a hundred boyfriends when I was in elementary school! Are you satisfied?" A vein popped up on the forehead of Ah Ci, and he said through gritted teeth, "Dean Xia! My elder brother is still inside Surgery, if you still treat him as a classmate or a friend, you shouldn't ask about old things with this gossip mentality!"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking advantage of his absence to inquire about your gossip. I just want to remind you that if you refuse to face yourself back then, you will be stuck in place by those old things and mislead others and yourself. Put me Think about the last question carefully, you don’t need to answer me, as long as you know the answer yourself.”

"You questioned my sexual orientation, but you just want to deny the importance of Ronghua, so Ah Chu is the only one left in my emotional world. You should be fair, is he the only one of me?" Ah Ci said bitterly, "Ronghua She died for me! She has been dead for so many years, why is she still being held by her?"

"It was you who held her tight." Xia Yuechun said, "It's been five years, it's time to let go. Let go of others, and let go of yourself. Even for Ah Chu in the operating room, he has always longed for you to be complete." Feelings."

Ah Ci looked at the two closed doors of the operating room, choked his throat and couldn't speak.

……

The operation lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon. When Ah Chu was pushed out, his complexion was very bad, and his eyes were slightly open but out of focus.

Ah Ci has never seen him so weak, and he has never been so distressed—although Ah Chu had a fever twice, he could still see his emotions from his eyes, and now he has no soul Same, horribly empty.Ah Ci was very flustered, and asked in a trembling voice, "Big Brother, Big Brother... how do you feel?"

"...Mmm." Ah Chu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he snorted softly.

"What?" Ah Ci instantly thought of the possible sequelae, and felt chills all over his body.

Xia Yuechun chatted with Dr. Guan for a few words. Seeing Ah Ci's face turned pale with fright, he walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and explained: "He's still confused. He just answered you subconsciously, without thinking about it."

"Then when will he be fully awake?" Ah Ci looked at Xia Yuechun, afraid that he might say that it would always be like this.

"This..." Xia Yuechun pushed his glasses and said solemnly, "Ah Ci, you have to be mentally prepared."

Ah Ci shook his head instinctively, not daring to think about what he was going to prepare.

"You have to be ready, he may not be able to talk to you until tomorrow." Xia Yuechun smiled wickedly, "Don't worry, the operation was a success, the tumor has been tested, and he will have to enter the observation room soon. I suggest you go back to the observation room first." Rest well at home and come back tomorrow morning."

Ah Ci felt a little relieved, but he refused to leave—he was very afraid that Ah Chu would leave his sight again, these seven hours were already long enough.

"I will notify you if there is a situation, go back." Xia Yuechun persuaded, "Besides, it is not appropriate for the two children to be left alone."

Ah Ci nodded mechanically, but his eyes never moved away from Ah Chu's face.He followed the operating cart all the way to the door of the observation room, and was urged by Xia Yuechun again before he walked out in a daze.

When Ah Ci passed by the parking lot, Liu Ah Si swiftly pushed open the car door and stepped down, calling to stop him: "Mr. Er!"

Ah Ci nodded at him: "When... did you come?"

"Around two o'clock. The boss sent me a text message yesterday, asking me to wait for you here." Liu Asi was afraid that he would not get in the car because of the reason of "wanting to be quiet", so he showed his gold medal, Handing over the phone, he pulled out Ah Chu's text message and showed it to him, "He said you've been working hard these days, and I'm afraid you won't be in good spirits, so he's holding on."

The screen was shining brightly, and the familiar words made Ah Ci's heart tremble. He turned his head and looked at the inpatient building, as if he could see through the wall the person lying on the hospital bed who was unconscious but still giving him warm care, choking. Get up: "Brother..."

Seeing him like this, Ah Si mistakenly thought that Ah Chu's situation was not good, and hurriedly asked, "How is the boss now?"

"...haven't woken up yet." Ah Ci restrained his emotions before replying, "The operation went very well, and the first test is considered over."

"It will definitely go well in the future."

"Yeah." Ah Ci nodded, "Let's go, don't go home yet, pick up the children from school and go back together."

……

Ai Zhong Aihua returned home, ran up to the second floor first, and went around the study, bedroom, and entertainment room.

"Looking for what?" Ah Ci asked.

"Uncle, where's Dad?" Ai Zhong asked carefully, observing his uncle's expression.

Ah Ci frowned, and said with some difficulty: "He... went on a trip, and he won't be back today."

"What about tomorrow?" Aihua asked.

"Tomorrow may also..."

"Why didn't you tell us before the trip?" Ai Zhong asked sharply, "Is he hospitalized?"

Ah Ci was speechless, and stroked Ai Zhong's hair.It seems that the children have always been simple, but in fact they are smart and strong, just like their father.Ah Ci squatted down, put his arms around the two children and said, "You will see him in a few days, I promise."

Seeing his uncle's depressed mood, Aihua took out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to him, coaxing him: "Uncle, eat it, it's so sweet!"

"Thank you." Ah Ci took the candy, but didn't eat it—his fatigue and anxiety cannot be eliminated by this candy.

"Don't worry." Ai Zhong also comforted him, "Father will definitely not be angry with you... After he is discharged from the hospital, you just don't have to fight anymore."

angry?What are you angry about?What does a hospital have to do with a duel?Ah Ci quickly realized what his nephews had misunderstood: "You think he was hospitalized because of a 'duel' with me?"

"Well, Uncle Horn said that someone will definitely be injured in a duel." Aihua replied seriously, his eyes fixed on the piece of candy he just sent out.

Ah Ci felt Gu Xichao's deep malice, he returned the candy to Aihua, and said, "He lied to you, no one will get hurt."

"Why did he lie to us?"

"Because he's boring." Of course, Gu Xichao's vileness is no longer enough to be described by the word boring, but at this moment Ah Ci really didn't have the mood to find a more suitable adjective for him, so he said, "My lord's world is very complicated, you don't have to. Understood...let's play."

The two children ran back to the room to get the car, and pushed it on the ground to play, muttering voices, bumping into each other from time to time, and rolling on the floor exaggeratedly.If Ah Chu sees them, they must say that they are out of shape again—Ah Ci thought so, feeling lost.

He felt a little heavy in his head, so he planned to take a nap.But lying on the bed, his consciousness was extremely clear, and he could still see Ah Chu's lost eyes when he closed his eyes.The phone rang suddenly, which made him very nervous, especially when he saw the words "Xia Yuechun" on the screen, his anxiety was magnified to the limit: "Hello? What's the matter?"

"The test results just came out, benign." Xia Yuechun's voice was full of excitement, "How is it? Take a breath?"

"Well, that's great! That's good..." A big stone in Ah Ci's heart finally fell, and he repeated "Great" several times excitedly before he realized that he was incoherent, "He's awake now No?"

"No, it's still like that, and I will definitely wake up tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll be there early in the morning... He doesn't know it's benign yet, I want to be the first to tell him the good news!"

"Okay, but..." Xia Yuechun hesitated to speak, and said vaguely, "Let's talk about it when the time comes."

"What's the matter?" Ah Ci asked warily, "If you have any questions, you can speak directly."

"No... I just want to persuade you to go to bed early, don't come here with panda eyes tomorrow, and let him drive you back to catch up on sleep."

"I know." Ah Ci hung up the phone and lay down on the bed again. He couldn't restrain the joy in his heart. When he saw the ugly blue rabbit beside him, he thought it was much cuter. He couldn't help but grabbed it and hugged it tightly and rolled on the bed ,"……That's great!"
