Chapter 78
Ji Lu gasped, pulled the gauze casually, and bandaged the wound on his hand.
"Please pack me a bunch of baby's breath."
A guest's voice came from outside the door.
Standing up from the ground, Ji Lu responded, turned his arms, ignored the burning pain on his skin, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurried out to greet the guests.
"Is it full of stars?" Ji Lu reconfirmed and packed him neatly.
The wound was treated hastily, the gauze was not wrapped too thickly, and the blood soaked out after a while.
Ji Lu glanced at the bleeding wound, and pursed his lips calmly.
In the morning, he received an order for a flower gift box. He couldn't leave the flower shop, so he wrapped it up and handed it over to the deliveryman. But before noon, someone came up to make trouble, saying that his girlfriend was allergic to lilies. Don't be held accountable.
Ji Lu felt speechless, he didn't pick the flowers himself, so what does the allergy have to do with the flower shop.
Even Lu took a step back and said to exchange for a bouquet of flowers, but the man refused to give up and insisted on paying the medical bills from the florist.
Ji Lu smiled politely, but his attitude remained firm.
The flower shop is not his, but Han Shuo's. This kind of unreasonable behavior must not be tolerated.
Before he finished speaking, the man grabbed the flower in his hand and threw it on his face. The deer couldn't dodge, so he could only raise his hand to block it. The sharp wrapping paper cut the skin, sharper than a knife, and the wound Burning pain.
After dressing up casually, I went to greet the guests again.
After working for a long time, I was free to deal with my injury.
He took the medicine kit from the back hall, that is, the side head of the deer, bit the sleeve of his shirt, frowned, and disinfected himself with a cotton swab.
The phone in the shop rang suddenly, and Ji Lu was taken aback, without hesitation, he picked up the receiver with one hand.
"Hi Chengxi Flower Shop, what do you need?"
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, only the faint sound of electric current.
Ji Lu was slightly taken aback, paused for a moment, put down the sleeves he had just rolled up in an awkward position, and changed the phone, "Hello?"
There was finally a little response from the other side.He yawned lazily, his voice sounded lazy and low, as if he had just woken up.
"Bullied?"
A familiar voice rang in his ears, and Lu subconsciously opened his eyes wide, looked down at the landline phone, and moved his light-colored thin lips a few times, but he couldn't say anything.
Duan Congzhen didn't get angry when he didn't hear any response. He half-lyed on the sofa, closed his eyes, and watched the man's sudden change of expression on the screen with deep eyes, with a smile on his lips.
"Bambi, roll up your sleeves," Duan Congzhen looked down at the screen, glanced at his medicine box, and continued, "Use the first bottle of medicine in the second row of the box to disinfect the wound, and then paint the brown bottle, Tie the gauze again."
Hearing what he said, Ji Lu was startled, and his face froze a bit. He was stunned for a while, then suddenly realized something, and suddenly raised his head to look at the camera in the corner of the store.
When the man looked up, his eyes met his.
Duan Congzhen smiled, and said casually, "Morning."
The guess was confirmed, that is, the deer lowered his head, pursed his lips, his face changed several times, his chest heaved slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a while, he rolled up his sleeves silently and did as he said.
The man didn't speak from the beginning to the end, only the sound of breathing from the receiver let Duan Congzhen know that he didn't hang up.
After seeing him finish, Duan Congzhen said again, "Why did he bully you?"
Hearing this, Ji Lu paused, and said expressionlessly, "He thinks I did something wrong."
"Then did you do something wrong?" Duan Congzhen asked.
"Is it important?" Ji Lu asked back softly, with a flat voice, "Those who want to find fault can always find a reason, either this reason or another reason."
The implication is that even if he did nothing wrong, some lunatics will still find him unhappy.Instead of looking for the reason in yourself, it is better to forget it like this. It is the most unwise to try to understand the brain circuit of the madman.
Duan Congzhen was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."
"Hmm." The deer lowered his eyes.
Neither of them spoke, and there were only the sound of breathing and electric current in the earpiece.
"What flowers did he buy?" Duan Congzhen asked suddenly.
Even Lu didn't understand, but he answered according to his intention, "Lily. But he didn't want it."
"Why?" Duan Congzhen asked.
"Girlfriend is allergic."
"Oh." Duan Congzhen understood, "What flower did you change for him?"
"Rose."
"He hit you with a rose, didn't he?"
"..." Jilu didn't speak, and his breathing became heavier.
"Right?" Duan Congzhen repeated his question.
Ji Lu pursed his lips and replied vaguely, "En."
Duan Congzhen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a look of interest flashed in his eyes, "OK."
Hearing his tone, Ji Lu flustered for a moment, and opened his mouth, "...what are you going to do?"
"Are you asking me?" Duan Congzhen asked back, chuckling, "Are you sure you want to listen?"
That is deer: "..."
He stopped talking.
"Okay, it's getting late, I have something else to do." Duan Congzhen's voice sank a bit, with rare patience and gentleness, "Don't touch the wound with water, it will be fine in two days."
Ji Lu was slightly stunned, then nodded obediently, without any doubt, "En."
"See you tomorrow." Duan Congzhen said.
"En." That is, the deer still looked resigned.
What he said about seeing you tomorrow is probably in the surveillance. Even if Lu didn't think much about it, he couldn't guess what Duan Congzhen was thinking about.
Just answer, at least you won't offend him.
·
Business was good today, before the sun set, the flowers from the flower garden were sold out, and there were still a few flowers left that fell off when they were packed, and they were scattered. Children make gifts.
Hang a sold out sign at the door of the store, close the software to receive orders, and just as Lu was about to pull down the shutter door, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Brother Lu."
The movement of pulling the door froze, and the deer turned around and saw a person standing under the street lamp in the weak light.
"Han Shuo?" Lu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that he took a few steps forward, "You..."
The person in front of him was still wearing the clothes he left on the day he left. He seemed to have stayed up a lot of nights, with a forced smile on his face, and his eyes were foggy, unable to see the glimmer of the past.
"Brother Lu." Han Shuo called him again, grinning, "I'm back."
·
In the evening, the barbecue stand by the sea, from here, you can also see the small lights hanging on the side of the road, which looks very lively.
Ji Lu was sitting on a small bench, holding a can of beer, looking at the person in front of him, without saying a word.
After a while, Han Shuo opened his mouth, turned his head and glanced at the gauze on his arm, "Brother Lu, are you injured?"
"Accidentally fell." Ji Lu was perfunctory, looked at him for a long time, and then asked, "What happened to your family?"
Han Shuo paused his hand holding the chopsticks, his face changed, and he opened his mouth hesitantly, "...a little thing."
"Is it difficult?" Ji Lu looked at him, frowning slightly.
He didn't know what happened to Han Shuo's family, but it must not be a trivial matter, otherwise it wouldn't take so long.
"Yeah." Han Shuo nodded, didn't look him in the eyes, and mumbled, "Some policemen are here, and the family is very nervous."
"Are you okay?" Jilu asked.
"No." Han Shuo shook his head, his expression pale.
Seeing him keeping his mouth shut, Ji Lu panicked even more, "If you need..."
"Brother Lu." Han Shuo suddenly put down his chopsticks, lowered his head almost to the table, and his voice was also nasal, "Do you think it's so cold here?"
"Is it cold... what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that his expression was not right, Ji Lu froze for a moment, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him, his palm felt hot.
Surprised, Jilu stood up from the chair and hurriedly helped him up, "Why, you are so hot."
"Brother Lu, go back." Han Shuo called him vaguely, grabbing his clothes indiscriminately, "I want to sleep."
"Persevere." Jilu helped him and moved to the side of the road with difficulty.
Half hugging and half hugging the uncomfortable man, Ji Lu stuffed him into a taxi, got in himself, and gave the address of the flower shop.
The car fled in the dust and disappeared into the bustling night market.
"What are you looking at?"
Li Jie bit the straw of the soda, propped his head against the car window, looked at the man in the driver's seat, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Duan Congzhen watched the taxi disappear around the corner, and then turned his head, "Huh?" He glanced at Li Jie's playful expression, took a sip of the pop soda calmly, and said nothing.
Li Jie stared at him, the corners of his lips curled up, and he teased slightly contemptuously, "Are you jealous?"
"What are you jealous of?" Duan Congzhen asked lightly.
"You want me to tell?" Li Jie laughed, "Do you want to deny it?"
Duan Congzhen looked at him, thought for a while, then narrowed his eyes slightly, "I don't understand what you're talking about."
Li Jie pointed at the place where the taxi left, "They."
"What happened to them?"
"Fuck, you got it, Duan Congzhen, you know what I'm talking about."
Duan Congzhen lowered his eyes and looked at the car joystick. After a while, he said "Oh", "Are you saying I'm jealous of them?"
"Isn't it?" Li Jie raised his eyebrows and raised his voice, "You kept saying that your Bambi would never dare to fall in love with anyone from now on, but the reality is still not what you want."
Duan Congzhen looked up at him without speaking.
"Your Bambi is better off without you. He will never live in your shadow again. You think you can manipulate his life, but in fact the influence you have on him is just to him. It's just a nightmare..."
"Li Jie." Duan Congzhen interrupted him, bent his elbows, looked at him with a faint smile, "Do you think that I have never experienced what it feels like to be jealous?"
Li Jie paused, then sneered, "Have you experienced it? To whom? Who have you been jealous of?"
Duan Congzhen finished drinking the soda in the bottle, threw away the empty bottle, straightened his cuffs, said calmly, "You."
Hearing this, Li Jie was a little surprised.
"You should still remember the teacher who taught us anatomy in college." Duan Congzhen said lightly, "The teaching assistant he brought in the second semester, that young man who always likes to praise you in class."
Li Jie thought for a while, then hesitated, "I remember."
Duan Congzhen continued, "I'm very surprised, why he likes you more, but never looks at me with that kind of admiration. I've been thinking about this question for the whole semester."
Li Jie was slightly startled, dumbfounded, "You...were you jealous of me at that time?"
"Of course." Duan Congzhen shrugged, smoked a cigarette and put it between his lips, "So I asked him out and asked him why."
"How did he say?"
"He said that it was the teacher who was wrong, and the teacher shouldn't favor one person over another, and the teacher will pay more attention to you in the future." Duan Congzhen said with no expression on his face.
"..." Li Jie was silent for a moment, "What about you?"
"Me?" Duan Congzhen asked leisurely, blinking slowly, "Since he said he did something wrong, he must be responsible."
Li Jie stared at him, guessing the meaning of his words, his Adam's apple rolled, and suddenly remembered something, and opened his eyes instantly.
"He... I remember that he hasn't been to school since then. He said that he fell down the stairs and was injured. It won't... have something to do with you, right?"
Listening to his shocked and eager questioning, Duan Congzhen closed his eyes lazily, turned the car key, and glanced at him, "I thought you knew already."
"Duan Congzhen, you fucking..."
"So don't speculate on my thoughts," Duan Congzhen looked at him and shook his head slightly, "I have experienced the feeling of jealousy, it is very profound and very unforgettable."
