Chapter Eleven Invite Him to Dinner(1/2)
Opposite him, Lu Zhenghan poured the cold coffee into the trash can and lowered his eyes to see the WeChat message the girl sent him.
He responded with one word expressionlessly.
【Um.】
He actually wanted to ask her, who lent her the courage to block her mobile phone number?
However, he felt that he had always been easy-going with others, and since the other party took the initiative to add him, it meant that she must have realized this mistake.
He was giving her a chance, waiting for her to take the initiative to admit her mistake.
Over there, Lin You had already typed up a short essay of 800 words. Xiao Zhi used reason and emotion to persuade Lu Zhenghan to let him cooperate with her in acting and come to meet her mother who was about to undergo surgery.
.
But just when she was about to send it, she saw a thin "um" from the other party.
She raised her eyebrows.
How could she forget? The other person is a big ice sculpture that is so cold and cold that people will shiver with cold just by looking at it!
Forget it, it's better to tell him such an important thing in person.
What if she sends the request and the other party directly rejects it? If it is an interview, as long as she sees that he wants to refuse even a little bit, the worst she can do is make him cry!
After all, words can only convey people's feelings and moods to a limited extent.
After thinking about it, she deleted the 800-word essay and then took the initiative to ask him to meet tomorrow.
[Mr. Lu, are you free tomorrow? Let’s meet. I have something important to talk to you about. 】
Looking at the message from Lin You, Lu Zhenghan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Does she feel that she is not sincere enough on WeChat, so she is planning to apologize to herself in person?
Well, she knows what's going on.
So I edited a WeChat message and sent it.
[You decide the time and place, just send it to me.]
Lin You soon replied.
【Okay! Good night then~】【Naughty.jpg】
Lu Zhenghan stared at the blinking expression, and seemed to see the smiling face of the little girl with a bun face. He frowned, turned off the phone, and threw it aside.
Perhaps it was because of the day's sleep and the sip of coffee that Lu Zhenghan tossed and turned in bed until four o'clock in the morning before he fell asleep.
Six o'clock in the morning.
The morning light shone in through the window of the hospital bed, reflecting on Lin You's thick and curled long eyelashes, casting a fan-shaped shadow on her fair and glowing skin.
The shadow just covered the dark circles under her eyes caused by not getting enough rest.
Her eyes moved under the blue bloodshot eyelids, and there were already signs that she was about to wake up.
Although Lin You goes to bed later than dogs and wakes up earlier than chickens every day, her new biological clock has been formed since her mother became ill, and a string has been subconsciously set in her mind. Therefore, when six o'clock comes, she doesn't care whether she sleeps or not.
After getting enough sleep, I woke up on time rubbing my eyes.
When she woke up, Lin You tucked in the quilt for her mother who was still sleeping. She stood up and stretched a lot, then went downstairs with her lunch box and bought stomach-nourishing millet porridge and steamed buns, as well as a boiled bun in the hospital cafeteria.
Egg, then hurried to the ward again.
She pinched the spot, knowing that usually her mother would have woken up at this point, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to go to the toilet. She was afraid that her mother would be dizzy when she suddenly woke up after sleeping all night, so she would always support her mother.
Sure enough, Chen Qiaohe had woken up. Since she fell ill, she seemed to have become much sleepier than before. She not only slept at night, but also slept during the day. She was so groggy that she never got enough sleep.
Lin You returned to the ward and saw her mother staring confusedly at a ray of sunlight slanting up from the ceiling with her eyes open, knowing that her mother must not be fully awake yet.
He put the food he bought aside, walked to his mother's bedside, sat down, took his mother's hand, put it on his cheek and rubbed it.
She said in a naughty and soft voice: "Dear Ms. Chen, my dearest Queen Mother, are you awake? Isn't the sunshine particularly bright today?"
Lin You loved to act coquettishly with her mother, just like Chen Qiaohe before she got sick. Therefore, when Chen Qiaohe heard her daughter's naughty words, she forgot for a moment that she was a seriously ill patient.
He smiled so hard that his eyes curled up, and he stroked his daughter's hair lovingly.
"Yes, the weather is really nice today."
Listening to his mother's delicate voice that was gentle to the core, and watching the brilliance flowing from the corners of her eyes and brows, Lin You seemed to see what her mother looked like when she was young.
When my mother was young, she was the most beautiful person in all the villages.
It is still the most beautiful in Lin You's heart.
She stayed with her mother for a while, then helped her mother go to the toilet, watched her mother wash up, and put breakfast on the small table for her mother. She saw her mother start to drink porridge one bite at a time, and then she reluctantly left.
rushed home.
Although the food in the hospital was not expensive, Lin You was only willing to buy it for her mother. Her own breakfast consisted of two big steamed buns that were still warm from the oven.
Remembering that her sister and Xixi were still at home and probably hadn't gotten up yet, Lin You went downstairs and brought them some steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, etc. that she usually couldn't bear to eat.
Little Xixi is still growing, and she can't let her niece eat poorly.
When Lin You returned home, she saw that her sister had already gotten up and was working in the kitchen.
"sister!"
Lin Yuan poked her head out of the kitchen: "Did you not come back all night last night?" She waited for Lin Yu very late last night, but she didn't see her back, and she didn't see her at home when she woke up in the morning.
Lin You nodded, turned around calmly and stuffed the steamed buns into his handbag:
"Yes, I took three orders last night. Including the tips, I made a total of five hundred yuan! And the last customer I sent last night happened to live near the hospital. I looked at the time too late.
He didn’t come back and went directly to the hospital.”
"Oh, by the way, sister, the doctor contacted me and said that the operation can be arranged in half a month at the latest. There are some pre-operative preparations that need to be explained to the family members in the past few days. If you take Xixi and everything is fine, you can go to the hospital to stay with our mother. By the way,
Listen to what the doctor says."
Lin Yuan nodded: "Okay, great!"
She was not only happy that her sister had earned so much in one night, but she was also happy that her mother would be able to have surgery soon. When she saw the breakfast her sister bought:
"Hey, why did you buy breakfast? I'm making egg noodles and I'm going to send some to mom."
The tip of Lin You's nose moved, as if she smelled some delicacy, with a greedy look on her face:
"I wonder why it tastes so good! There's no need to give it away. Mom has already eaten it. You and Xixi can eat these buns later when you're hungry at noon~"
While taking off her clothes, she went to the bathroom. Afraid of disturbing Xixi, she only raised her voice slightly, "By the way, sister, leave me a bowl of noodles! It's best to put it out to dry now when it's done. I'll finish washing it."
After taking a bath and eating, you have to go to work~"
"Okay!" Lin Yuan's voice fell outside the bathroom door.
Lin You is very thin. The jagged collarbones in the mirror and the waist that looks like it could break with just a slight effort make her look like she has been malnourished for a long time. However, she has fair skin and is still erect where she should be plump.
When she puts on clothes, she looks like a stunted minor, but when she takes off her clothes, her figure is like a narrow-waisted porcelain vase with perfect proportions.
After taking a bath, she hurriedly put on clean clothes, not forgetting to soak the clothes stained by mud yesterday in the basin.
It was too late, so she planned to come back and wash it again.
After finishing cleaning up, Lin Yuma scurried to the kitchen to get a bowl of noodles that her sister had ordered. In less than three minutes, she ate all the soup and noodles.
She swore that this was definitely the best meal she had ever eaten in these days.
She even wanted to have another bowl.
But there was not enough time, so she grabbed her handbag and told her sister that if there was any news from her brother-in-law, she must tell her. If there was any difficulty, the two sisters would solve it together, and hurried out of the house.
As she rode the electric bike, Lin You was already thinking about where to meet Lu Zhenghan.
There is a "Shaxian Hotel" next to her clinic.
She could invite him to have dinner there at noon, treat him to noodles and steamed dumplings, or a duck leg rice set?
But as a result, he was bleeding profusely...
But it doesn't matter, after all, you ask for help first.
Eaters are short-tongued. Maybe if I treat him to a meal, he will agree to go to the hospital with me and let his mother meet him?
Lin You felt that this deal was a good deal.
So, when she arrived at the clinic, she sent the address and time to Lu Zhenghan, then put on her work clothes and hummed a tune to see the patient's teeth.
At noon, she was thinking about her agreement with Lu Zhenghan. She saw the WeChat message from Lu Zhenghan that he had arrived, so she didn't stop after seeing the last patient with an appointment. She changed out of her work clothes and picked up her handbag and went out.
to the clinic.
Seeing her leaving in a hurry, her friend Su Shengnan asked behind her: "Young! Where are you going in such a hurry?"
Lin You waved her electric car key: "I made an appointment with someone and invited them to dinner!"
Su Shengnan, who was taking off her mask, felt that the sun must be rising in the west. Did her stingy friend take the wrong medicine today?
Busy gossip: "Who can I invite? Take me with you!"
Lin You had already ridden the electric bike and put on his helmet: "The budget is not enough! I will do it next time!" As he said that, he had already unscrewed the bike and ran away quickly.
