middle of the road

At the end of the morning reading class, Chi Yu received several text messages on his mobile phone, saying that 3 yuan was withdrawn from his bank card. Just now, he looked out the window and imagined that Cheng Yang would take the money and return it to him. Boss Zhang put away his phone and smiled unconsciously.

Fu came in to find him for dinner at noon, and was stunned when he met, "What's wrong with your face, why is it swollen like this? Did your father beat you?!"

"Does he dare?" Chi Yu motioned him to keep his voice down, even if Chi Haidong hadn't beaten him, it would be embarrassing for him to be beaten like this.

"I fell." He said, with Cheng Yangxue, no matter how big or small the injury is, he would always say that he fell when he met him. From various angles, there is nothing he can't fall out of.

"Really?" Fu Jin was dubious.

"Why did you lie to you?" Chi Yu accidentally touched the wound when he spoke, and he gasped for the sudden pain.

He hasn't been beaten for hundreds of years, no, it should be said that he hasn't been punched in the face like this since he grew up, and Cheng Yang gave him an experience.

"That's right, it's too late for him to be nice to you now, so how dare he beat you." Fu Jin finished the meal and found a seat to sit down, "Last time Cheng Yang confiscated the medicine, I still have it, I'll get some for you later ?”

"How many?" Chi Yu asked.

"As much as you want." Fu Jin said.

"Then give me more."

Fu Jin looked around, "Why hasn't Cheng Yang come to school yet? Didn't he just twist his foot a little? It's been a week."

Originally, that was supposed to be an excuse to ask Huang Ming for leave, but last night, looking at his foot like it was twisted, Chi Yu still believed the reason why he said that he fell while riding a bicycle, because if it was really done, Cheng Yang did There is no need to go around him again, this is not in line with his usual style of being beaten to death until his neck is stiff.

"Cheng Ying is ill." Chi Yu said.

"Huh?" Fu Jin was stunned, "What's wrong, is it serious?"

"It must have been a little bit at first, but I've had an operation." Chi Yu said, "The doctor said later that he's recovering well, and he'll probably be discharged after a few more days."

Fu Jin didn't think it was a disease that would require surgery, and he thought it was just a common cold with a fever or something, "Why don't you tell me, you Huang don't know?" @无限好文，全在晋江文学城

"Ah."

"What did he think?" Fu Jin sighed, "Even if it can't help you, it's better to go and have a look, which hospital?"

"Affiliated."

Fu Jin paused, "I want to go there at night, how about you, are you going?"

Chi Yu glanced at him and nodded, he was going to go.

After eating to deliver the tray, Fu Jin thought of something when he got up, "How do you know?"

Chi Yu kept his face the same as when he lied about the fall, "I found it when Ah Huang asked me to visit his house."

"Oh." Fu Jin thought about it and there was nothing wrong, but when he finished putting away the things and saw Chi Yu put the mask on his face, he felt something strange, as if there were more things he didn't know than before.

Cheng Yang went to Boss Zhang's office and put the principal and a little interest calculated by himself on his desk. Boss Zhang looked up and said, "What do you mean, you regretted it?"

"You count it, there are [-] in total." Cheng Yang said.

Boss Zhang laughed, took the money in his hand and dialed it back and forth, "If you could really borrow money, you wouldn't have talked to me in the first place."

Cheng Yang pretended not to understand the meaning of his words, thanked him, turned and walked out.

"It's a bit embarrassing to do that, Cheng Yang." Boss Zhang said, "The money was promised to you, so why did you give it back to me? Is it because Zhang gave me too little?"

Cheng Yang didn't speak, he had finished what he should say and do, and he didn't care if he thought he was a bastard crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, he opened the door and went out, and Boss Zhang suddenly said something without beginning and no end behind him, " It's the kid surnamed Chi."

Cheng Yang ignored him, and went downstairs to tell the manager that he would take another week off. If Boss Zhang wanted to fire him, he could just let him know.

Coming out of the hotel, he bought two steamed buns for breakfast on the way. After eating, his stomach was still empty. After drinking another cup of soy milk, he felt full again. He touched his forehead, but nothing came out, and his palms were also hot. , to be honest, what he has the least energy to deal with right now is getting sick. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

He went to the hospital and sent Cheng Le to the school. Cheng Ying should be discharged from the hospital in a short time. At that time, he would no longer have to run around like now. If the hotel fired him, he would have to find another one quickly. He said that he could repay the money slowly, but he couldn't really delay it for three to five years.

Back in the ward, Cheng Ying woke up and was sitting on the bed in a daze. Cheng Yang went to ask her what she wanted for lunch.

"Even if I tell you, brother, you'll cook me soup." She said.

Cheng Yang sat down, "You can only drink soup now."

"Oh." Cheng Ying pretended to be an adult and exaggeratedly sighed, "Then why do you ask me?"

Cheng Yang smiled, "I'll just ask casually, don't take it to heart, then I'll be back later."

"Brother." Cheng Ying stopped him, and asked hesitantly, "Has uncle been here?"

"Ok?"

"Your face." She pointed at him.

Cheng Ying fell asleep when I came here last night. I didn't see it. Cheng Le was taken aback. He also asked him if Cheng Yunsheng had been here. It seems that he didn't lie to either of them last time. Admitting that they are not as foolish as they were when they were young, "It's not uncle, it was accidentally done yesterday while playing."

"really?"

"Really." Cheng Yang said: "Brother Chi Yu will come over one day and you will see that he is worse than me, his eyes are squeezed into slits."

Cheng Ying laughed.

Cheng Yang helped her pull up the quilt a little, "I have to go to school next week, and I can only come at noon and evening. During the day, I can find a nurse aunt to accompany you, okay?"

"Yeah." Cheng Ying nodded obediently, "Brother, go."

Chi Yu came here with Fu Jin at night, and as soon as he entered the door, Fu Jin yelled: "Fuck you?!" He looked at Chi Yu, then at Cheng Yang, and suddenly looked suspicious, "No way Did you fall?"

"The basketball was smashed." Cheng Ying answered her brother very thoughtfully.

Fu Jin: "..."

Well, fell, smashed, at this time he almost had a bottom line in his mind, wondering if the two of them had gone out to fight in groups, and then he could only find a reason to hide it from his younger siblings, after all, Cheng Yang had been involved in this matter before. did.

But why hide it from him, does he look like someone who needs protection?

"Don't say you two are quite symmetrical, this fate is also extraordinary." Fu Jin turned his head and clicked his tongue.

Cheng Yang looked at Chi Yu, who happened to be looking at him too, and the two of them looked at each other in a tacit understanding without saying a word.

He and Fu Jin each brought a few big bags of food over, stuffing the narrow head of the bed so that there was no place to set foot, Cheng Yang asked them to take some back, Cheng Ying can only eat liquid food now, nothing else.

"If you can't eat it, there are still you and Cheng Le." Fu Jin helped him put everything into categories, "Besides, if you can't eat it now, you won't be able to eat it when you're done, right, Ying Ying."

Cheng Ying nodded quickly.

Cheng Yang glanced at her, and she immediately stopped a little timidly. Cheng Yang was a little distressed that she had been lying on the hospital bed for so long. They came here today, and she could see that she was very happy, especially Fu Jin, who had secretly I told him several times that my little brother looks really good-looking.

Thinking of this, he couldn't blame him any more, so he picked out a few of her favorite foods and put them on her bedside, "I'll eat it when I'm done, you know."

"Why are you so fierce." Fu Jin defended her, "Yingying, leave him alone, I'll ask the doctor for you now, as long as it's edible, I'll pick it out for you."

After Fu Jin finished speaking, he really went out to find a doctor. At this time, the doctors had gone to eat, but there were many nurses at the service desk, which was good. Usually, this kind of place is where he can be most useful.

"Have you paid back the money?" Chi Yu asked when there were only the two of them left in the ward, and the only third person was still turning a deaf ear to nothing but snacks.

From the moment he entered the ward, his gaze had been looking at him intentionally or unintentionally. Cheng Yang deliberately avoided it several times, but finally when it was inevitable, he nodded.

Chi Yu: "Did he say anything?"

Cheng Yang: "No."

"That's good." Chi Yu walked towards him, "If he troubles you, tell me."

Cheng Yang subconsciously took a step back.

Seeing him like this, Chi Yu suddenly smiled, "Why are you nervous?"

Cheng Yang looked at him with some annoyance, thinking that Chi Yu was too reckless. Now that he was in front of his sister, if he was like last night, he didn't mind "slamming" his face a little harder.

Chi Yu put two tubes of ointment in his hand, and said in a low voice, "Ah Huang came to me today, and I said I accidentally dropped it. He will ask you on Monday, so don't reveal your secrets."

Cheng Yang squeezed the things in his hands, turned around and poured a glass of water for him and Fu Jin each, while Chi Yu stepped back two steps and stood at the end of the bed, continuing to glance at him from time to time as if the episode just now had never happened.

After a while, Fu Jin came back after asking, holding a list in his hand, and probably listed every type he wanted to know. He gave the list to Cheng Yang, sat down and chatted with Cheng Ying for a while, He stood up, took out a wrapped gift box from a certain bag, and said to Cheng Yang, "Can you come out for a while? I have something to tell you."

Cheng Yang nodded and followed them out. Chi Yu kept watching them until their backs turned around the door and they were out of sight.

"What?" Cheng Yang looked at the gift Fu Jin handed to him and asked.

"Birthday gift." Fu Jin said, "I must have heard correctly. It's this Monday. Although it's already passed, I still want to say, happy birthday."

Cheng Yang didn't know who he was inquiring about, so he realized that Monday was indeed his birthday, but it wasn't the date on his ID card, it was July on his ID card, when he registered Mistaken.

But compared to now, he prefers the one in July, because it means that he will not officially become an adult until after his college entrance examination is over.

"I appreciate the kindness, the gift is unnecessary, thank you."

"No one would even refuse a birthday present." Fu Jin looked hurt, "I bought it specially for you, and it's useless for me to take it. You can't let me give it to someone else."

Fu Jin stuffed it into his hand, "Besides, it's not worth anything. If you feel sorry, you can just send it back after my birthday next time."

Cheng Yang thought about it and didn't refuse. It was a matter of reciprocity, but he didn't celebrate his birthday, and he was a little unaccustomed. He carefully opened the package and found a very beautiful photo frame inside.

"You didn't go to the spring outing last time. I heard that they put you on it. It should be quite commemorative. You can use this to hang up when the time comes."

"Thank you."

"Cheng Yang." Fu Jin looked at him for a while, then his eyes drifted away, and then turned back after several twists and turns, "Are we still friends?"

Cheng Yang looked up, "Didn't you ask last time?"

Fu Jin looked at him, "I'm a little nervous, I want to ask again."

Cheng Yang looked at him for a while, then smiled, "Haven't we always been friends?"

Fu Jin followed with a smile, "You actually understand what I want to say."

Cheng Yang didn't speak, Fu Jin felt a little bit bitter in his heart, but he felt relieved all of a sudden, "I'm very happy that you can treat me as a friend."

He actually knew the answer a long time ago, so he only dared to ask in such a cryptic manner, did he really say something, no, did he and Cheng Yang clarify anything, no, but he actually got the answer, Although not what he wanted.

It can only be said that the fate has not arrived yet. At this moment, Qu Cao, who is empty of the four big things, thought, how can the mere surname Jiang stop it?

Back in the ward, Cheng Yang asked them to take care of him for a while, he went to pick up Cheng Le, Fu Jin said don't worry, and promised to make him happy.

When he came back, Chi Yu was the only one left in the ward doing papers, Fu Jin had already left, and Cheng Ying had been lulled to sleep.

"Have you eaten yet?" Cheng Yang asked him.

"No."

"Then go down..."

"Don't go downstairs." Chi Yu took the coat, "Go out to eat."

Cheng Yang thought that when he said going out to eat, he meant not to eat in the hospital cafeteria, but to find a small shop outside, who knew that Chi Yu took him and Cheng Le to a taxi that was not cheap at first glance, and did not allow He pushed the door open without any objection and went in.

He could only hug Cheng Le, who had fallen asleep in the car, and followed him in.

Chi Yu ordered four or five dishes very skillfully, and seemed to be a regular customer of this restaurant, Cheng Yang put Cheng Le on the seat next to him.

"Call him when the food comes." Chi Yu poured him a glass of water and handed him the bag that he had been carrying all the time.

Cheng Yang, who was inexplicably stuffed with something today: "..."

"Isn't it your birthday?" Chi Yu said, "You've accepted everything else, so you won't refuse mine."

Cheng Yang looked at him and always felt that there was a hint of anger in his words, so he took it.

"open to take a look."

The box was quite big, and the outside was only packed with simple paper. Cheng Yang didn't expect that after opening it, there were not only his, but also Cheng Ying and Cheng Le's inside. There were three sweaters in total, the same style, except that they were different in size. Same.

He said thank you and was about to close the box when he saw Chi Yu standing up suddenly out of the corner of his eye, and then a figure approached him in a flash, without even thinking about it, he waved his hand to block it.

Chi Yu separated his with one hand, and put the palm of the other hand on his forehead, "Do you have a fever?"
