Shen Fangyu accompanied the Jiang couple to the station.
In the bustling station, Shen Fangyu helped take down the suitcases and large bags of gifts and carried them to the entrance of the station.
Mother Jiang, who was reluctant to leave, held her son’s hand; her parting words were endless. Father Jiang watched from the side, and after a while, he suddenly patted Shen Fangyu’s shoulder and signaled him to go aside.
Jiang Xu glanced at them, and Mother Jiang said: “Your father has something to say to him.” She paused and said, “I also have something to say to you.”
“What’s wrong, Mom?”
Mother Jiang Mu glanced into the distance, then withdrew her gaze and said slowly: “When your father got up last night, he saw Xiao Shen standing alone on the balcony, lost in thought.”
She sighed, “It was one or two o’clock at that time, so he must have heard something on his mind. He is a good person, but life has its ups and downs, so he’ll inevitably feel burdened. Xiao Shen is also human, and since you live together now, you have to take more care of him.”
Jiang Xu: “…”
Shen Fangyu must have been so frightened by the horror movie that he couldn’t sleep.
Although he thought so in his heart, Jiang Xu nodded very cooperatively on the surface, and then Mother Jiang continued: “Look at Xiao Shen; his wife is gone, the money is gone, and if there was no child, how could he have lived on? Fortunately, he has a daughter to keep him going. You always say that you are busy with work and have no time to fall in love, but Xiao Shen is the same age as you, yet he got married and had a child.”
She patted Jiang Xu’s hand and said, “So you have to learn from him, find someone to settle down with, and have a child; it gives a bit of sustenance.”
Jiang Xu was full of black lines in his head.
Learn from Shen Fangyu?
What should he learn?
Shen Fangyu’s so-called daughter is in his stomach.
He took a deep breath, knowing that he could not be exposed at this time, reluctantly stabilized his emotions, and said “mm.”
His attitude made Mother Jiang particularly surprised. She had persuaded him so many times before, but he always did not get good feedback. Unexpectedly, when Shen Fangyu was mentioned, Jiang Xu’s attitude changed so quickly.
Sure enough, there has to be some peer pressure.
After bidding farewell to the two, Jiang Xu turned to Shen Fangyu, who was standing beside him, and asked, “What did my father tell you just now?”
“On the surface, he encouraged me not to be defeated by the short-term setbacks in my life and also asked if I wanted to be set up with a second marriage partner. Also…”
He glanced at Jiang Xu and said, “Your parents asked me to blow some wind in your ears, convince you to get married early, have a child, and let them hold some grandchildren.”
“……”
Shen Fangyu did not need to blow wind; he already put it into action.
Jiang Xu was inexplicably a little depressed.
Shen Fangyu took out a red envelope from his pocket and stuffed it into Jiang Xu’s hand. “Your father gave that to me, I dare not accept this red envelope,” he said: “If your father discovered that everything we said that day was all false, and that we are expecting a child, ten orthopedic experts might not be able to handle it.”
“What were you doing on the balcony at night?” Jiang Xu suddenly asked.
Shen Fangyu’s eyes flickered, and he kept quiet for a long time before saying, “Enjoying the wind.”
“Wasn’t it cold?”
“It was okay.”
As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and sneezed. Jiang Xu moved to the side vigilantly, and then Shen Fangyu coughed twice.
“It’s nothing,” he quickly bought a mask to put on, and handed another one to Jiang Xu, “I won’t catch a cold.”
Jiang Xu silently distanced himself from him. He raised an eyebrow, and repeated Shen Fangyu’s remarks that day: “Can never catch a cold, huh?”
As the saying goes, standing flags are used to overturn cars, and Shen Fangyu, who has not caught a cold for more than ten years, fell seriously ill. He got a high fever of 40 degrees, which frightened the hospital leaders, who always delayed matters of approving leave, and they directly approved his leave note.
The fever subsided in the hospital, but Shen Fangyu was afraid of infecting Jiang Xu, so he moved back to his home to recuperate. Jiang Xu originally did not approve of him recuperating at home alone, but he was pregnant and did not dare to take risks, so he decided to hire a caretaker for Shen Fangyu.
The caretaker took him for the boss. She texted him every day to report Shen Fangyu’s every word and deed and even sent him Shen Fangyu’s photos at a fixed time every day.
At 5:57 p.m., Jiang Xu was having a meal in the rest area of the operating room while looking at his mobile phone, and Wu Rui, who was next to him, teased, “Jiang Xu, what are you looking at—a message from your girlfriend?”
Ever since Yu Xin (the blind date) came to the office to deliver food that day, Yu Sang, the big mouth, spread it throughout the department, so everyone thought that Jiang Xu was communicating with the girl who delivered the meal before. “When are you and your girlfriend getting married, so that we also come and drink some wine?”
Jiang Xu skimmed the first question without a trace: “What girlfriend?”
“The one who brought you food last time,” Wu Rui asked, “isn’t she your girlfriend?”
Jiang Xu shook his head.
“I thought she was your girlfriend, I was so happy for you.” Wu Rui then remembered something, and he ridiculed: “Shen Fangyu also got angry over it. ”
“Shen Fangyu?”
“Yu Sang said that he told Shen Fangyu that your girlfriend had come, and Shen Fangyu’s face changed suddenly. If he didn’t know that the relationship between the two of you was not good, he would have thought that he liked you.”
Wu Rui joked: “When you chased Zhong Lan, he immediately chased Zhong Lan. It’s strange, Shen Fangyu is on good terms with everyone in the department, but he likes fighting with you. Like a brat in elementary school that likes pulling the braids of the little girl he likes.”
Jiang Xu: “…”
What’s been going on recently? First, his parents thought that he and Shen Fangyu were in a relationship, and now, Wu Rui is suddenly suspecting that Shen Fangyu likes him.
For a moment, he didn’t know whether to spit on Wu Rui’s outrageous metaphor first, or agree with the fact that Shen Fangyu was indeed a bit childish.
However, he knew that Wu Rui was just joking, if he really had this idea, he would not say it. But Jiang Xu still couldn’t help but ask, “Does my relationship with him seem good?”
“No way,” Wu Rui commented seriously, “the relationship between the two of you is so bad. ”
Jiang Xu nodded reassuringly and moved his gaze back to his mobile phone. It was past six o’clock, but the caretaker had not sent him a message. He frowned slightly; he had asked her to send updates by six o’clock.
He was about to send a message to ask when a video call suddenly popped up. Jiang Xu’s hand slipped and he answered, and before Jiang Xu could react, Shen Fangyu’s face appeared on the screen, and a familiar voice said, “I’m letting you see me.”
Wu Rui, who witnessed everything: “?”
Jiang Xu quickly hung up the video, glanced at Wu Rui, and pointed to the mobile phone as he said: “He made a mistake, we are not that close.”
Senior brother Wu Rui nodded cooperatively and handed him an olive branch, saying, “Maybe there are some work things he wants to talk to you about.”
“We’re really not that close.” Jiang Xu said.
“Yes, yes,” Wu Rui said, “you’re not close, you’re not—.”
However, before he could finish the second “close,” Shen Fangyu called again. Jiang Xu hung up the phone expressionlessly and viciously took a bite of food under Wu Rui’s meaningful gaze.
Jiang Xu: [Don’t call, I’m in the operating room rest area; type if you have something to say.]
Shen Fangyu: [Nothing really, I just wanted to ask if you feel any symptoms of a cold. I haven’t been sleeping well for the past two days, and I was afraid that I had infected you.]
Jiang Xu saw the string of words Shen Fangyu had sent and suddenly regretted the way he had hung up the phone earlier.
He typed in a subtle mood:
–Do you feel better?
–Much better, I will be able to go to work in two days, so I am afraid that you will not be able to see any more photos of me. Which is why I video-called.
Jiang Xu’s fingertips paused.
–I didn’t ask the caretaker to send me photos
–I know, I made her send them so that you can appreciate my handsomeness.
Jiang Xu pursed his lips.
–Nobody wants to appreciate it.
–You might not want to appreciate it, but my daughter does.
Shen Fangyu shamelessly used his daughter as an excuse, and continued to complain to Jiang Xu:
–The caretaker you hired is too much. I asked her how you are doing and whether you got infected, but she said that since you pay her salary, she can only tell you about my situation and not about yours.
Jiang Xu read the message and called the dutiful caretaker, telling her that in the future, she should tell him whatever Shen Fangyu asks. When he cut back, he saw that Shen Fangyu had sent another message:
–I have good news: my application for funds has been approved! I wanted to howl like I did last year, but there was no one to listen. The dog cries.jpg
…… Were he and Shen Fangyu already familiar enough to send each other emoji packs except for the yellow faces?
Jiang Xu replied with an “oh”. He felt it was too cold, so after a moment’s thought, he picked out an emoji of someone patting a skull.
–Pat the head.jpg
After waiting for a while and not getting a reply from the other side, Jiang Xu pursed his lips. According to social etiquette, shouldn’t Shen Fangyu ask him if he also got his application approved?
He was inexplicably a little unhappy. His eyes subconsciously stopped on the last message sent by Shen Fangyu. He looked back and forth twice, and then he looked at the words “last year” and suddenly remembered something.
Last year, they sat in the office to check the winning application, and Shen Fangyu started howling once he found out: “I won, I won!”
He was so noisy that Jiang Xu couldn’t help but say, “Are you Fan Jin?”
In the entire office, only Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu applied for that level of funding. Wu Rui, who was on the side, looked at Jiang Xu, who had not yet opened his results, and teased Shen Fangyu with a smile: “Aren’t you afraid that Dr. Jiang didn’t win and that he’d turned around to fight with you?”
“That’s impossible,” Shen Fangyu said, “If I got approved, Jiang Xu was definitely also approved. ”
The moment the words fell, Jiang Xu found his results.
He had also won.
Jiang Xu looked at the dialog box that still had no new messages and suddenly understood why Shen Fangyu hadn’t asked about his application. Shen Fangyu felt that their abilities were indistinguishable, so if he won, it was natural that Jiang Xu also won.
Jiang Xu wanted to refute a little, this kind of thing also required a certain amount of luck, but it was true that whether it was the last time or this time, he and Shen Fangyu won at the same time, and the year before last, they also failed to win at the same time.
It was not clear whether it was because their strength had really reached such a precise level, or because of fate.
Perhaps it was because he spoke a bit more with Shen Fangyu today, Jiang Xu came home from work, and suddenly felt that his home was a little dull.
Although they didn’t have much conversation when Shen Fangyu was around, Jiang Xu felt that it was too quiet, and even felt that his home was empty.
A few days after Shen Fangyu left, Jiang Xu didn’t feel anything; at most, he was unaccustomed to waking up with cramps at night. However, Shen Fangyu has been reminding him to take calcium supplements, so this situation has not been that frequent.
Jiang Xu felt that it might be the hormonal changes of pregnancy that made his mood unstable. He turned on the stereo, but didn’t feel better even with the songs blaring through the house. When all kinds of love songs came and went, he felt some inexplicable emotions hovering in his heart.
It was strange, Jiang Xu felt that he seemed to miss Shen Fangyu a little.
This feeling reminded Jiang Xu of some school days, when all his classmates in the dormitory returned to their hometowns for vacation and Jiang Xu, who was the last to leave, closed his door.
But there was something more than that emotion.
This realization made Jiang Xu feel a little strange and a little speechless.

Which is why I video-called.Jiang Xu's fingertips paused.I didn't ask the caretakerto send me photosI know, I made her send them so that you can appreciate my handsomeness.Jiang Xu pursed his lips.Nobody wants to appreciate it.You might not want to appreciate it, but my daughter does.Shen Fangyu shamelessly used his daughter as an excuse, and continued to complain to Jiang Xu:The caretaker you hired is too much. I asked her how you are doing and whether you got infected, but she said that since you pay her salary, she can only tell you about my situation and not about yours.Jiang Xu read the message and called the dutiful caretaker, telling her that in the future, she should tell him whatever Shen Fangyu asks. When he cut back, he saw that Shen Fangyu had sent another message:I have good news: my application for funds has been approved! I wanted to howl like I did last year, but there was no one to listen. The dog cries.jpg Were he and Shen Fangyu already familiar enough to send each other emoji packs except for the yellow faces?Jiang Xu replied with an oh. He felt it was too cold, so after a moment's thought, he picked out an emoji of someone patting a skull.Pat the head.jpgAfter waiting for a while and not getting a reply from the other side, Jiang Xu pursed his lips. According to social etiquette, shouldn't Shen Fangyu ask him if he also got his application approved?He was inexplicably a little unhappy. His eyes subconsciously stopped on the last message sent by Shen Fangyu. He looked back and forth twice, and then he looked at the words last year and suddenly remembered something.Last year, they sat in the office to check the winning application, and Shen Fangyu started howling once he found out: I won, I won!He was so noisy that Jiang Xu couldn't help but say, Are you Fan Jin?In the entire office, only Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu applied for that level of funding. Wu Rui, who was on the side, looked at Jiang Xu, who had not yet opened his results, and teased Shen Fangyu with a smile: Aren't you afraid that Dr. Jiang didn't win and that he'd turned around to fight with you?That's impossible, Shen Fangyu said, If I got approved, Jiang Xu was definitely also approved. The moment the words fell, Jiang Xu found his results.He had also won.Jiang Xu looked at the dialog box that still had no new messages and suddenly understood why Shen Fangyu hadn't asked about his application. Shen Fangyu felt that their abilities were indistinguishable, so if he won, it was natural that Jiang Xu also won.Jiang Xu wanted to refute a little, this kind of thing also required a certain amount of luck, but it was true that whether it was the last time or this time, he and Shen Fangyu won at the same time, and the year before last, they also failed to win at the same time.It was not clear whether it was because their strength had really reached such a precise level, or because of fate.Perhaps it was because he spoke a bit more with Shen Fangyu today, Jiang Xu came home from work, and suddenly felt that his home was a little dull.Although they didn't have much conversation when Shen Fangyu was around, Jiang Xu felt that it was too quiet, and even felt that his home was empty.A few days after Shen Fangyu left, Jiang Xu didn't feel anything; at most, he was unaccustomed to waking up with cramps at night. However, Shen Fangyu has been reminding him to take calcium supplements, so this situation has not been that frequent.Jiang Xu felt that it might be the hormonal changes of pregnancy that made his mood unstable. He turned on the stereo, but didn't feel better even with the songs blaring through the house. When all kinds of love songs came and went, he felt some inexplicable emotions hovering in his heart.It was strange, Jiang Xu felt that he seemed to miss Shen Fangyu a little.This feeling reminded Jiang Xu of some school days, when all his classmates in the dormitory returned to their hometowns for vacation and Jiang Xu, who was the last to leave, closed his door.But there was something more than that emotion.This realization made Jiang Xu feel a little strange and a little speechless.
