Although Chen Baosheng knew that if he turned around and left at this time, the female boss Luo Min would be a little disappointed. Her blurred eyes illustrate her desire as a single woman in her thirties. She longed to be conquered and to be accompanied by a man, especially in the depths of the drunken night. This tide of loneliness always silently infiltrated her heart.
But now, Chen Baosheng knows that the female boss is 456, but he has nothing to do. His ex-wife Li Xuemei was injured and had no one to rely on in the deep city. He didn't even know anyone. He would feel bad if he didn't help her. He couldn't let go of both emotion and reason.
Chen Baosheng's car was driving very fast. In the deep city at midnight, he turned on the car's navigation system and drove on the road at almost the maximum speed limit. It used to take 45 to 50 minutes to return to Guannai from Pingshan, but now it takes him more than 20 minutes.
When they arrived near the community where the rental house was located, Chen Baosheng called Li Xuemei and asked where she was.
Li Xuemei said vaguely, there is a clinic near the community! Did you even tell me how to get there? Don't enter the community, walk south along the intersection of the community, pass a traffic light intersection, turn right, and you will see the sign of Hong'an Community Clinic.
Chen Baosheng drove with one hand and listened to the call on the phone. After five or six minutes of tossing and flipping several times, she finally found the location she was talking about.
This is a very simple community clinic. It is late at night, there is no one, and it even looks scary and eerie.
In the hall, there is a row of stainless steel seats, which can be regarded as an infusion room. There is a messy pharmacy on one side, and there is a small room with a few tables in the ward, which may be an operating room.
In this city, only those who do basic work like to come here. After all, it is cheap, there is no need to register, and there is no need to check this or that, so it has won the favor of many people. If it is a large hospital, as soon as you enter, a lot of X-rays and tests will be taken.
However, rich people, locals, and people who have made some achievements in this city still rarely come to such a place. After all, the strong smell of Tianna water is really unpleasant, and if medical skills are guaranteed, then Jane The first one can be ignored.
More than a year ago, Chen Baosheng would come to a place like this if he wanted to see a doctor. After all, his income was controlled there, his level of living was controlled there, and there was no contempt or look down on him. In this world, everyone is just trying to make a living.
Chen Baosheng parked his car and hurriedly walked into the community clinic. At first glance, there was no one inside. It was empty. When I looked closely at the light, I saw a man wearing a white suit, lying on the table in the room where the medicine was dispensed and falling asleep. There was a big pool of drool on the table.
When he walked into the hall of the clinic, he saw Li Xuemei's rickety body, leaning on a long chair in the corner of the hall with a depressed expression, with a sling bottle in her right hand and gauze wrapped in her left hand, unable to move at all. That lonely look seemed a bit pitiful.
Chen Baosheng walked over and called "Xuemei".
Li Xuemei opened her eyes, yawned, and sat up straight. The moment she saw him, the tears in her eyes almost burst out.
After sitting down, she still shouted softly: "Baosheng."
"Are you okay?" Chen Baosheng stepped forward, gently held her injured hand, looked at it, stroked it, and asked with concern: "What on earth did you do? Is the injury so serious?"
Li Xuemei shook her head and said, "It only took seven stitches. Hey...it's okay."
Chen Baosheng looked at her and then asked, "Didn't you do any other tests? You fell, did you feel uncomfortable elsewhere in your body?"
Chen Baosheng felt that this was a small clinic and there was no way to perform examinations, so he was very worried. After all, when you fall, other parts of your body will also be injured.
However, Li Xuemei shook her head and said, "It should be no problem. I was riding a bicycle and was frightened. Then I fell along the flower bed in the green belt. An iron fence protecting the flowers cut my arm. in this way."
"Hey, it's okay. You, please be careful when riding." Chen Baosheng still felt a little distressed when he saw her like that.
Li Xuemei looked at him coming in panting and looking very concerned, shook her head, grinned her dry lips and said: "It doesn't hurt at all, but it's okay. It's very uncomfortable to be unable to move like this."
Chen Baosheng listened to her words and looked at the two bottles of saline hanging on the hanging pole. He knew that she had been here for a long time to get anti-inflammatory injections. In such a small clinic, as long as the people who came in were okay, they seemed to be able to get a few bottles of saline. normal.
Seeing the saline bottle she had finished injecting, Chen Baosheng asked, "You were injured right after get off work. You must not have eaten anything, right?"
She nodded.
Chen Baosheng continued: "You give me an intravenous drip here first, and I'll get something over. You haven't eaten at this late hour, so you must be starving to death."
Chen Baosheng got up and walked out of the community clinic, went to a Shaxian snack shop, packed a box of steamed dumplings and a can of chicken soup for her, and then walked back with them. However, as soon as he took it back, Chen Baosheng was stunned.
Li Xuemei was given an intravenous drip in the community clinic, a sling bottle in one hand, and the other hand was wrapped around the wound, unable to do anything.
Chen Baosheng was at a loss and was stunned. He opened the lunch box, held the dumplings with chopsticks and said to Li Xuemei: "Li Xuemei, it's inconvenient for you, let me feed you."
Li Xuemei was stunned for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'm not hungry."
"You still say you're not hungry. What time is it? It's already past eleven o'clock in the evening. You're still not hungry? Hurry up and stop being impatient."
After saying that, Chen Baosheng couldn't help but put the dumplings in his hands and fed them to her mouth with his chopsticks.
Li Xuemei had no choice but to open her small mouth and accept the food thrown by Chen Baosheng.
Chen Baosheng could not imagine why such a situation would occur?
In his heart, he hated Li Xuemei. Even on the day she left, he thought he would never see her again in this life. She was dead in his heart forever.
Even this time, when she came to Shencheng, he could have ignored her, but seeing how pitiful she was, he couldn't bear it. He couldn't leave her in a strange city and ignore her. He, Chen Baosheng, is not that kind of person. Really, he can't do it.
After feeding her a few dumplings, unexpectedly, Li Xuemei's fair face was suddenly filled with tears.
Chen Baosheng even saw Li Xuemei holding the dumpling in her mouth, but unable to swallow it. Her eyes were filled with glittering eyes, as if she wanted to cry but was holding back the tears.
Chen Baosheng looked at her and said, "Eat, drink some soup after you eat, fill your stomach first, and after the injection, I will take you to eat something delicious."
Li Xuemei choked and said, "I can't eat anymore."
Chen Baosheng said: "You only ate a few, why can't you eat any more? You are injured, what should you do if you don't eat something to supplement your nutrition?"
Li Xuemei remained silent.
Chen Baosheng fed her, and the tears in her eyes accumulated more and more. Suddenly they burst like a dam and flowed down her nose, making Chen Baosheng at a loss.
Chen Baosheng held the bowl and looked at her: "Xuemei, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? As long as you are fine, it will be fine. Just get a few stitches and rest for a few days. Let's talk about your work. You don’t have to worry. This job is not good and you hang out with men all day long. Then I will ask Lao Chang to transfer you to the office. Their company is responsible for the landscaping of the entire Shen City, and we have a good relationship with me. I’ll treat him to a meal. , it’s basically not a big problem to adjust the work.”
Li Xuemei shook her head, looked at Chen Baosheng with red eyes and said, "Baosheng, thank you."
Chen Baosheng said: "Why are you thanking me? You eat quickly, finish the injection quickly, and we will find something delicious."
This time, Li Xuemei was obedient. She wiped her tears with the sleeve of the injection hand and let Chen Baosheng feed the dumplings and chicken soup into her mouth.
Just like that, after waiting for more than ten minutes, Li Xuemei finished taking the anti-inflammatory injection.
After she finished the injection, Chen Baosheng carried her luggage and a bag of medicine and led her out of the community hospital.
Although Li Xuemei shouted to go home first, Chen Baosheng still took her to a famous local seafood supper stall.
Here, Chen Baosheng ordered a five-pound lobster and two abalones, and then asked the late-night snack stall to cook them. It was also a way to open Li Xuemei's horizons and replenish her health.
While waiting for the food to be served, Chen Baosheng stared at Li Xuemei's injured hand and asked her again: "Is it okay to eat with the other hand?"
Li Xuemei lowered her head and said softly, "No problem."
Chen Baosheng said: "That's good! As long as you can eat, it will be much better. It's not convenient for you to be injured these days. There is a restaurant that cooks Xichuan cuisine on the facade of the community. I have their phone number , what do you want to eat? I'll say hello to him and ask them to make it and deliver it to you. Don't go to work these days. Recuperate in the rental house for a few days, and then go back when you feel better."
Li Xuemei nodded.
But then she raised her head again, stared at Chen Baosheng and said, "Baosheng, thank you... I was the one who felt sorry for you in the past."
The next words she spoke became quieter and quieter.
Chen Baosheng smiled bitterly and said to her: "Let's not talk about the past. I don't want to think about the past. Now I just want to get better soon! Also, it's so late, I I have to take you back. Haha."
The two have been separated for five years, and this is the first time that Chen Baosheng has sat in front of Li Xuemei and talked to her seriously.
Li Xuemei was a little embarrassed, but Chen Baosheng didn't care.
At this moment, all his feelings were relieved. The woman in front of him was just an acquaintance, a fellow villager, or the mother of his child.
The food arrived, not much, but very rich.
Just one shrimp makes Xiwu dishes.
Moreover, this abalone and lobster were such good things that she had never tasted before.
As a person who came to the city from the mainland to make a living, Li Xuemei had seen such lively lobsters and abalone in seafood stalls in this city before, but when she looked at them, she just wandered around to admire and marvel at them. She never thought that they would Buy.
But at this time, while eating seafood, Li Xuemei also felt that Chen Baosheng's current life was no longer the same as her own. This made her heart clenched and ached.
That night, Chen Baosheng treated Li Xuemei to a late-night snack, then drove the car and took several detours back to the rental house he rented.
By this time, it was almost a little early in the morning.
Seeing that Li Xuemei's hands were inconvenient, Chen Baosheng had no choice but to help her carry her luggage upstairs.
Just when he was moving his luggage into the room and preparing to leave.
Li Xuemei actually called him: "It's so late, do you want to leave?"
Chen Baosheng stood at the door and was stunned for a moment, and Li Xuemei said again: "Aren't you going to sleep in mom's bed all night? You are going back to the dormitory now, tossing and turning, what time is it, and you don't have the energy to go to work tomorrow!"
