I became a substitute for my brother

Tao Heng booked a restaurant to pick up Ji Muqiao. The plaster cast on Ji Muqiao's feet hadn't been removed. When Tao Heng arrived, he was sitting on the sofa reading a book. Zhu Le opened the door. Tao Heng didn't know his name, so he took the initiative Stretching out his hand, he introduced himself: "Tao Heng, Dr. Ji's friend."

Zhu Le pursed her lips and smiled, "Zhu Le, Brother Ji often mentions you to me."

"is it?"

Tao Heng also smiled, Zhu Le led him into the house, and Ji Muqiao raised his voice, "Here we are."

"How are you?" Tao Heng went over to look at his legs, "Why don't you come back after getting better over there?"

"I don't want to stay anymore, it's still comfortable to come back, and Lele him..."

As Ji Muqiao said, he glanced at Zhu Le, Zhu Le also looked at him, and smiled slightly. Ji Muqiao said, "Lele hasn't been to City A yet, so I want to take him to have a look. After all... To live here forever."

Tao Heng nodded knowingly, "It's better to come back earlier, it's convenient in City A."

Tao Heng took them to dinner, and Tao Heng was a little annoyed when he went out: "If I knew it, I would have bought vegetables and cooked them myself, and I still have to torment you."

"No fuss, I can go."

Ji Muqiao went out on crutches, and Zhu Le was protecting him. When they got into the elevator, the two of them walked in front, and Tao Heng followed behind to watch. Suddenly, he felt lucky that he had kept the distance between him and Ji Muqiao. For Ji Muqiao, he is the most unsuitable one for him.

Zhu Le is a person who doesn't talk much, he is quiet, but he doesn't feel awkward. When Tao Heng talked to Ji Muqiao while eating, he listened beside him, and picked up some food for Ji Muqiao from time to time. , Ji Muqiao ate all of them, and gave him one as well. At this time, Zhu Lehui pursed his lips and smiled, and ate the food quietly.

Tao Heng felt very relieved, a corner of his heart that had been swelled up finally let out a sigh of relief, and felt relieved.

"How is Qin Wenyuan?" Ji Muqiao asked him halfway, "I saw the news, is he okay?"

"It's fine, it's fine." Tao Heng replied to him.

"Then you two now..." Ji Muqiao asked him, "Are you reconciled?"

Tao Heng shook his head, "No hurry."

Ji Muqiao nodded and didn't ask any more questions.After eating, Tao Heng took them home first, and then asked the driver to drive him around. The driver asked him where he was going, and he said whatever he wanted, anywhere.

He doesn't really want to go home, it's not that he doesn't want to see Qin Wenyuan, he thinks he should calm down, he told himself that he is no longer the relentless idiot that he was many years ago, he must always stay awake and remind himself that this person Once hurt you, even if you love him again, you have to hold back.Intense feelings are like fireworks, they are always the most beautiful at the beginning, and when the fire is over, there is only a mess left on the ground. This time he wants to burn slowly, appreciate slowly, and prolong the beauty as much as possible.

After turning around for more than an hour, I received a call from Qin Wenyuan halfway, asking him if he had finished his meal and when he would return. He said, "Come back now, why are you still awake?"

Qin Wenyuan said, "I won't be able to sleep until you come back, and I'm worried about you."

Tao Heng helped his forehead, and said helplessly, "I'm almost there, go to sleep."

"I'll wait for you." Qin Wenyuan took the initiative to hang up the phone after finishing speaking.

When Tao Heng returned home, Qin Wenyuan did not sleep. Tao Heng looked at the time, and it was almost ten o'clock. Usually, Qin Wenyuan lay down at this time. After all, he was seriously injured and needed to rest.

Tao Heng changed his shoes and went over, sat down in front of him, and asked him, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Qin Wenyuan said: "Eat, I'm not full."

"Why? Didn't I order you a meal?"

"It's not tasty." Qin Wenyuan said confidently, "I don't like it."

Tao Heng was speechless. That restaurant was a five-star restaurant, and there was no takeaway business. He asked someone he knew to deliver it, and he was afraid that he would hate it, but they really hated it.

"Then what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Tao Heng stood up and walked to the kitchen, convincing himself as he walked, he is a patient, he is a patient, don't care about him.

"Whatever you do, I like whatever you make." Qin Wenyuan followed him to the kitchen, sat at the bar and looked at him, his eyes were right.

Tao Heng saw that his vest was hot, so he resisted not turning around. He poured oil into the pot, fried an egg, and then boiled noodles in the water. When the water boiled, Qin Wenyuan suddenly said: "Today, Sun Lang beat me up." Call and say the cat misses me."

Tao Heng heard this and turned to look at him, waiting for him to speak.

Qin Wenyuan rubbed his nose with his hand and said, "I want to take over the cat, is that okay?"

Tao Heng nodded, "Okay, you can raise it yourself."

Qin Wenyuan frowned, "You don't care?"

"I'll just take care of you." Tao Heng turned around, grabbed a handful of noodles and threw them into the pot, picked up the chopsticks and stirred them, "You take care of it yourself."

Qin Wenyuan felt extremely comfortable listening to the first half of the sentence, but he couldn't laugh at the second half of the sentence.Although the fat cat is his, in fact he only feeds cat food, bathing, shoveling excrement, cleaning ears, getting sick to the doctor, etc. are all done by Sun Lang, which he can't do.

"Forget it." He whispered, giving up.

There are vegetables and eggs in the noodles, which are very light, but taste good. Qin Wenyuan sat at the bar to eat, and Tao Heng sat across from him and looked at him, and suddenly asked him: "Your own cat, let Sun Lang take care of it for you, are you sorry?" ?”

Excuse me?What did he feel ashamed of, the salary he paid Sun Lang was enough for ten cats, but when Tao Heng asked, Qin Wenyuan also felt that he was too much, as if in Tao Heng's eyes, he was a bad boss who oppressed employees.

But why does Tao Heng care so much about Sun Lang?

He felt uncomfortable, "Do you think I treat him badly?"

Tao Heng didn't understand, "Who? The cat?"

"Sun Lang."

Tao Heng still didn't understand, so he replied, "He worked very hard."

Qin Wenyuan was so sour, "He has a high salary and a lot of year-end bonuses. I didn't treat him badly."

Tao Heng thought he had gotten to his point, said "Oh", and said, "Then let him keep it."

The sourness couldn't be stopped once it came up, Qin Wenyuan asked him again: "Did you go to dinner with Ji Muqiao at night?"

Tao Heng didn't know why the topic turned to Ji Muqiao again, and replied to him: "Yeah, what's the matter?"

"Heng Heng, you..." Qin Wenyuan always speaks like this now, he wants to say but dare not, faltering, "He has a boyfriend, don't go out with him."

Tao Heng thought it was funny, "If you have a boyfriend, you can't go out to meet friends? What about some people who are married and go out for sex?"

"..." Qin Wenyuan looked at him, not knowing how to answer, a little embarrassed, a little sad, and more guilty.

After Tao Heng finished speaking, he regretted it. Since he had made up his mind to accept him again, he shouldn't bring up the past, but those things were deeply engraved in his heart. Good things can be obliterated, but they have already decided to be together, and it always hurts to mention these things.

He stood up, said "I'm sorry", turned and left the restaurant, and hurried upstairs.

Qin Wenyuan listened to the sound of footsteps getting farther and farther away, and then looked at the half bowl of noodles left in front of him. He couldn't eat any more. After a while, he buried his face in the palm of his hand and sighed deeply.
