Recalcitrant

During Lu Heping's last physical examination, atherosclerosis was detected. At that time, the doctor warned him that he should eat a light diet to control his blood pressure, otherwise he would be at risk of stroke.

Mr. Lu thought he was strong and strong, and he didn't take the doctor's advice to heart. He never thought that he would have an acute cerebral infarction at the company's general meeting within half a year, and fell down on the rostrum.

Fortunately, he was sent to the doctor in time, and his life was safe, but several days passed, and Lu Heping showed no sign of waking up.

The Lu family was tight-lipped about Mr. Lu's condition, and no one knew what the specific situation was like.However, there was a case record in the wechat group in the industry that was difficult to distinguish between true and false. There were rumors from the outside world that Mr. Lu of Juxing had become a vegetative state, and there was no possibility of waking up.

The ward was silent, and Lu Heping lived in the best suite in the hospital, with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom, with a small balcony attached, and more complete hardware equipment than ordinary people's homes.

There is a clock hanging on the cold white wall, and the second hand moves forward silently, as if it is constantly approaching the end of hope, and it is also like counting down.

"Mr. Lu, the company is calling." Ling Xiao came to Lu Shaoheng holding the phone.

Lu Shaoheng leaned against the window, staring intently at the instruments in the room, and said two words lightly: "No answer."

Ling Xiao quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and said: "They said they have something very important to discuss with you."

Lu Shaoheng raised his head to look at Ling Xiao, and said with a heavy tone: "I won't answer, let them talk to whomever they like."

After Ling Xiao left, Lu Shaoheng dimmed the lights above his head, and the coldness in the ward seemed to have subsided a bit. He came to the bed and sat down, looked up at the woman sitting opposite him, and said, "Aunt An , you go back to rest first, I will stay here tonight."

"Let me stay tonight." Aunt An withdrew her gaze from Lu Heping's face. She is a woman with a very strong heart. After experiencing the panic for the first few days, she has calmed down as quickly as possible. , keep everything in order.

She looked around Lu Shaoheng carefully, and said to him: "You have been suffering for several days in a row, and if you continue like this, there will be physical problems, and your father will feel distressed when he wakes up."

"It's okay, I'm upside down day and night every day, and my biological clock is very chaotic." Lu Shaoheng smiled and comforted Aunt An: "Anyway, I won't be able to sleep when I go back, so I might as well stay here."

After sending Aunt An away, Lu Shaoheng asked Ling Xiao to go back to rest. There are professional nurses in the hospital taking turns to take care of her 24 hours a day. What the family can do is very limited. No matter how many people gather here, there is no practical significance.

Naturally, Ling Xiao was not as easy to dismiss as Aunt An. After the incident happened, he stayed by Lu Shaoheng's side for five days, but he didn't dare not listen to Lu Shaoheng's words. Under Lu Shaoheng's insistence, he still walked away step by step. .

After everyone left, Lu Shaoheng returned to the hospital bed and sat down.

The rumors from the outside world are all true. Due to the massive cerebral infarction, the doctor has officially announced this morning that Lu Heping has little hope of recovery. Now he is completely paralyzed, only a pair of eyes can be opened occasionally, and his consciousness has not yet fully recovered. The time is still spent in a coma.

Recalling the scene when the doctor told him the bad news in the morning, Lu Shaoheng felt a subtle feeling in his heart, and his throat began to feel a little itchy. He put his hand on his lips, coughed lightly, and then found out from his coat pocket. Cigarette case and lighter.

He put the cigarette in his mouth and was about to light it when he realized that he was in the hospital, so he stood up and walked out with the cigarette.

During these days in the hospital, he has already figured out the surrounding environment, and he knows that walking up the fire escape will lead to the hospital's rooftop.

It's just that Lu Shaoheng never expected that he would meet Chen Zhuo as soon as he opened the door of the ward.

Chen Zhuo had been filming in Japan during this time, and probably rushed back after hearing the news that Mr. Lu had fallen ill, and he looked dusty.

He didn't expect to run into Lu Shaoheng as soon as he entered the door, his steps paused slightly, and his eyes fell on the unlit cigarette between his lips.

Following Chen Yao was Jiang Xiaobo. He sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them, so he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Mr. Lu, are you okay?" Jiang Xiaobo asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Lu Shaoheng looked at Jiang Xiaobo, with a cigarette in his mouth, and asked vaguely, "Just came back?"

Jiang Xiaobo nodded.

Lu Shaoheng took down the cigarette and held it in his hand, his voice finally became clear: "Go ahead, I'll go out and smoke a cigarette."

Before Jiang Xiaobo could reply, Chen Zhuo went straight into the ward as if he hadn't seen Lu Shaoheng, without even saying hello or concern.

The expression on Jiang Xiaobo's face was a bit awkward, he patted Lu Shaoheng's shoulder, and comforted him kindly: "Lu will always get better, don't worry too much."

Lu Shaoheng nodded to go, made a gesture of "go and return", and left the ward alone.

There are fifteen floors in the inpatient department. The wind on the roof is like a knife, and it hurts the skin. Lu Shaoheng stood at the air vent as if he could not feel the cold, lit the smoke between his fingers, squinted his eyes, and took a deep breath. He took a sip, and slowly spit it out again.

Tonight, Lu Shaoheng's addiction to cigarettes was particularly heavy. Facing the bright city lights in the distance alone, he smoked several cigarettes in a row.

But the smoke was formless, shadowless, and weightless. Lu Shaoheng's empty heart was filled with the smoke of nothingness, and he flew farther and farther, higher and higher, and couldn't find a place to fall.

When Lu Shaoheng came back, there was a low voice of conversation in the room, it seemed that Chen Zhuo hadn't left yet.He must have invited the doctor on duty, and he is currently investigating the situation.

With the smell of cigarettes all over his body, Lu Shaoheng was very self-aware and didn't go in to obstruct other people's eyes.He turned around and went to lie down on the sofa, staring straight at the ceiling with his eyes reddened by the wind.

He didn't lie to Aunt An just now. He has indeed suffered from insomnia every night these days.As soon as he closed his eyes, the dark tide rushed towards him, taking his breath away.

When he finally got used to the biting cold, the black water turned into thick mist, wrapped him tightly, and split his exterior and heart into two completely different pieces.

After Lu Heping fell, Juxing Films lost its backbone, and now everyone is focusing on Lu Shaoheng.

Through a door, Chen Zhuo's voice drifted into his ears intermittently.Listening to the slightly deep male voice in the room, Lu Shaoheng felt that the tide that weighed him down was slowly receding.

Soon, his consciousness gradually became drowsy, and his vision began to blur.Finally, unconsciously, he gently closed his blood-red eyes and fell asleep.

Lu Shaoheng slept very deeply this time, and he didn't have any more messy dreams, but maybe half an hour later, or maybe it was only 10 minutes, in short, he was woken up by a jolt.

Lu Shaoheng opened his eyes, and what he saw was the beautiful female star on the advertising poster.

This female star, Lu Shaoheng, has an impression that she was once rumored to have an affair with Chen Zhuo.Although Chen Zhuo's company issued a statement to refute the rumors, based on Lu Shaoheng's understanding of Chen Zhuo, this matter is likely to be true.

As soon as all kinds of messy thoughts came into Lu Shaoheng's head, the voice of another rumored protagonist sounded: "Wake up and get down."

Chen Zhuo's voice made Lu Shaoheng sober up a lot, and it wasn't until then that he realized that he was being carried on Chen Zhuo's back.

At this time, his head was dizzy and his limbs were weak. In order to prevent Chen Yao from throwing him on the ground, Lu Shaoheng hurriedly used his hands and feet to hold Chen Yao's body tightly.

"Where is this?" He finally stopped studying the beautiful girl on the poster, but raised his head and looked around the surrounding environment.

From the looks of it, it should be in an elevator.

Chen Zhuo said succinctly: "I'm almost home."

After Chen Zhuo finished speaking, he stopped talking. He didn't explain why he brought Lu Shaoheng out of the hospital, nor did he really mean to throw Lu Shaoheng down.

The unhappy breakup not long ago was still vivid in his memory, and Lu Shaoheng had nothing to say to him, so he simply closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

He was just pretending, but the drowsiness really came back. His cheek was pressed against Chen Zhuo's neck, and a familiar breath lingered in his nose. Lu Shaoheng's head, which had finally woken up a little, became drowsy again.

With a sound of "ding", the elevator came to the 32nd floor, the elevator door slowly opened, and the sensor light in the elevator room turned on.

Lu Shaoheng recognized it, this is his and Chen Zhuo's home.

Standing outside the door was a neighbor who was about to go downstairs. In Lu Shaoheng's image, he seemed to be a university teacher.Lu Shaoheng was used to being lawless since he was a child, but he still had some respect for his teacher.

Under the probing eyes of the neighbor's teacher, even if Lu Shaoheng was as thick-skinned as a city wall, it was rare for him to be difficult to resist.Chen Zhuo was not uncomfortable, he greeted his neighbor politely, and got out of the elevator with Lu Shaoheng on his back.

Looking at the long-lost gate a few meters away, Lu Shaoheng wondered if he was immersed in some unrealistic dream, and asked dully: "What stimulated you in Japan, and suddenly your conscience found you so kind to me?"

Chen Yao walked forward with Lu Shaoheng on his back. Hearing what he said, he asked without turning his head, "Why, am I not treating you well?"

How could it be bad? Lu Shaoheng smiled and shook his head where Chen Yan couldn't see.Chen Zhuo is gentle, tolerant and responsive to every partner he associates with, he can be regarded as a perfect lover.

Of course, apart from him, Chen Zhuo was always impatient with him.

"We've known each other for so long, the last time you carried me like this was seven years ago, do you think you're good to me?" Lu Shaoheng sniffed and said jokingly.

Chen Zhuo said with a smile: "It happened so long ago, who still remembers it."

The seven years Lu Shaoheng mentioned was when he and Chen Yao were preparing for the first movie together.That year, Lu Shaoheng and Chen Zhuo went to the mountain to survey the location together. The dew was deeper and the mountain road was difficult to walk. Lu Shaoheng slipped and injured his ankle when going down the mountain.

At that time, Chen Yao carried him all the way back to the hotel like this. Jiang Xiaobo came up to help him several times on the way, but Chen Yao refused.

Although Chen Zhuo had already forgotten about it, Lu Shaoheng still remembered that the weather was fine that night, when he looked up, the sky was full of stars, and he could see the Milky Way when he looked carefully.The air in the mountains is fragrant with grass and trees, and the way down the mountain is illuminated by the stars.

The journey down the mountain was long, and Lu Shaoheng felt bored in no time. He hurt his foot and was restless, lying on Chen Zhuo's shoulder, amusing Chen Zhuo for fun: "Are you starting to think that I am actually quite a good person? "

Chen Yao walked down the mountain with a sigh of relief, not wanting to waste words with him. After all, Lu Shaoheng was taller than 1.8 meters, and it was not easy to carry him down the mountain.

Seeing that Chen Zhuo didn't answer, Lu Shaoheng continued on his own, "So can you agree to the condition I raised at the beginning?"

"Sleep with me after you go back." As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Shaoheng realized that he was rushing in, and immediately took a step back consciously: "If you don't think it's too good, we can start dating, but I don't think that's the case with you innocent people."

As he said that, Lu Shaoheng approached Chen Zhuo, leaning against his ear and said, "If you don't speak, I'll take it as if you agreed."

Let him go on talking like this, maybe he has to decide which hotel to open a room on his own, Chen Yan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said: "Be quiet, if you talk nonsense, I will throw you down the mountain."
