Next, Zhuang Haixia's friend — not just any friend, but the younger brother of Zhuang Haixia's cousin's husband. He was a man in his early forties, and Zhuang Haixia called him 'Big Brother'. He was currently the Deputy Director of the Union Medical Hospital's Office. With him, the process of Sun Shuqin's hospitalization became very simple. It was almost a green light all the way. Song Chaoyang only showed up once to pay the deposit, and for the rest of the time, he just stood by and watched.
After Sun Shuqin was admitted to the VIP ward, Song Chaoyang and Li Rui expressed their gratitude to the Deputy Director. The Deputy Director exchanged a few pleasantries with the two of them, and then left.
Song Chaoyang also expressed his gratitude to Zhuang Haixia. Zhuang Haixia said, "Song Shuji, we can be considered old friends. Do you still need to be so polite with me? If you didn't pay so much attention to my disappearance last year, I might have died at the bottom of the Heiyao Trench mine. You saved my life, so shouldn't I help you a little now? "
When Song Chaoyang heard this, he was deeply moved. He thought to himself that what she said was not wrong. Last year, when she and another Central TV reporter went missing, he did express a high degree of importance and even held a meeting with the Municipal Party Committee to discuss this matter. From a certain point of view, he had indeed sped up the speed of her rescue. However, his intention at that time was not to save her from danger, but to avoid political risks. It could be said that his intentions were not pure. But in the end, the tables had turned. This year, when his lover was suffering from cancer and came to Beijing to seek treatment, she was the one who helped him. It seemed like there was really a cycle of karma in the unseen world.
Song Chaoyang said gratefully, "Well, since you said so, I won't be so polite with you. But you don't have to thank me, but I still have to thank your big brother, right? Also, the breast specialist he entrusted with a favor, I also have to express my gratitude, right? "
Zhuang Haixia thought for a while and said, "As for my brother, you don't have to thank him. Our relationship is clear, just like a family. Thanking him would be too much. As for the breast specialist, uh … you don't have to express your gratitude. If you want to express your gratitude, you can secretly give him a red packet. That's enough. "
Song Chaoyang nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
After clarifying these details, Song Chaoyang said to Li Rui, "There's nothing else now. Can you help me invite Reporter Zhuang and the doctors and nurses to dinner? After dinner, arrange their accommodations and tell them to come back tomorrow morning.. I'll stay in the ward.. I can't go out..."
Zhuang Haixia waved his hand and said, "There's no need. Song Chaoyang, I've already eaten."
Li Rui also said, "Secretary, you don't have to be so polite with Haixia. We're all old friends, there's no need for that, hehe." Song Chaoyang said, "Alright then." Li Rui said, "After we finish eating, we'll pack some food for you and Teacher Sun?" Song Chaoyang said, "There's no need to pack food for me, I'm not hungry. Just pack a bowl of porridge for Teacher Sun. She won't be able to eat much anyway. "After saying this, his face became extremely gloomy.
Li Rui could understand his and Sun Shuqin's feelings. With this illness, who would be able to eat? Their stomachs were filled with anxiety, and they probably couldn't even swallow a mouthful of cold water. He said, "Okay, then I'll bring them out to eat." Song Chaoyang instructed again, "When the porridge is sent back later, you can also go back to the hotel to rest. It's enough for me to accompany Shuqin." Li Rui said, "How can that be? At the very least, I have to share your burden for half the night. " Song Chaoyang waved his hand and said, "There's no surgery going on now, and Teacher Sun doesn't have any other problems. It's enough for one person to accompany her. Actually, there's no need to accompany her. I should be able to sleep after the lights are off, so don't worry."
Since he said so, Li Rui didn't insist anymore. He called Lao Zhou and the three accompanying doctors and nurses from Qingyang City Hospital to find a restaurant outside the hospital to eat. Zhuang Haixia also said goodbye to Song Chaoyang and followed behind Li Rui with An Ying.
When they walked out of the inpatient building, Zhuang Haixia tugged at Li Rui's arm and said, "Hey, someone even said that he would treat me to a drink." Li Rui smiled and walked two steps behind her. He tilted his head and whispered to her, "I'll take them to dinner first, arrange their accommodation, and then treat you to a drink. Don't worry, you won't be able to run away." Zhuang Haixia said, "If you're taking them to dinner, then why should I go with An Ying?" Li Rui thought for a while and said, "Isn't Dongdan Wangfujing nearby? You two can go shopping. " Zhuang Haixia curled her lips and said, "You're looking down on us too much. Dongdan Wangfujing is a place that sells common goods. Is it worth it for us to go shopping?"
An Ying interrupted, "Li Rui, aren't you going to arrange their accommodation? Why don't you just ask for their ID cards and give them to me and Haixia? We'll help you find a hotel and book a room. That way, you won't have to waste any more time." Li Rui was startled and laughed, "That's right. Why didn't I think of that? Then I'll have to trouble you two. I'll go and ask for their ID cards."
Zhuang Haixia looked at them with a strange expression. Her eyes rolled around, but no one knew what she was thinking.
After Li Rui went to the front to get their ID cards, Zhuang Haixia patted An Ying's arm and said, "Hey, do you have something going on with Li Rui?" An Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Her face turned red and she raised her hand to tickle Zhuang Haixia's armpit. She said angrily, "What are you talking about? There's nothing going on between us." Zhuang Haixia snorted and said, "Then why are you so good to him? You even took the initiative to help him? " Zhuang Haixia asked. An Ying said, "He's a friend, and last year's incident … You know, he protected me during the whole process. I'm very grateful to him. Besides, the sooner I help him finish his business, the sooner he can treat us to a drink, right? "
Zhuang Haixia pursed her lips and said, "I always feel that your relationship with him is not normal. Maybe there really is something going on. Otherwise, why did you rush over to see him when you heard that he came to Beijing?" An Ying pinched the corner of her mouth and said, "I already explained when I saw him just now. The reason why I came over was to thank him in person. Thank you for being an old friend. Why are you still talking nonsense?" Zhuang Haixia said, "But I don't think you said thank you to him. You were just trying to be friendly."
An Ying pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Why do I hear jealousy in your voice? Are you jealous that I'm treating him better? Why don't I just leave and let the two of you be together? Haha. "Zhuang Haixia said," Hmph, why would I be jealous? He and I are just ordinary friends. If the two of you really have that kind of relationship, haha, then I'll leave immediately. You two don't have to pretend to drink. Quickly go to the hotel and get a room. "An Ying laughed and said self-deprecatingly," I'm just a withered flower, how dare I beg for pity? "
When Li Rui returned to the two girls, he heard Zhuang Haixia comforting An Ying. "… It's all in the past. Don't keep it in your heart. Start from the beginning and create a wonderful life. You're talented and beautiful. You're so outstanding …"
Li Rui smiled and asked, "What are you talking about?" Zhuang Haixia saw him come back and said casually, "Nothing much. I'm just saying that An Ying is such an outstanding woman. Even a woman like me is tempted, let alone a man. If I give her to a man, which man won't want her? For example, if I give her to you, Li Rui, do you want her? "
An Ying heard this and was both angry and amused. She raised her hand and hit her and said, "Stop fooling around, girl. Let's get down to business."
Li Rui smiled and handed over two identification cards and a bank card to Zhuang Haixia. He said, "This is my identification card and the driver's, Mr. Zhou's. It's just enough to get two rooms for the four of us. This is my bank card. The password is … "He told the two girls the password.
Zhuang Haixia took the three cards and said, "There's a total of five of you, but you're only getting two rooms. What about you? Where will you stay? " Li Rui smiled and said, "Don't I want to treat the two of you to a drink? Let's talk after drinking."
Zhuang Haixia said to An Ying, "After drinking, let him go home with you. He'll stay at your house. Your bed is big. Haha." An Ying said shyly, "Why don't you let him stay at your house? You two know each other earlier and have a better relationship. " Zhuang Haixia smiled and said, "Then we won't go to anyone's house. The three of us will sleep together on the bridge. Haha. Haha."
Li Rui had known Zhuang Haixia for a long time, but he had never seen her like this. Maybe it was because she couldn't play when she was alone with him, who was a little boring. He felt that she was ten times or a hundred times more charming than before. He liked her even more. He smiled and said, "Let's talk about sleeping later. I'll take them to dinner first. I'll call them later."
While they were talking, they arrived at the entrance of the hospital. The three of them said goodbye. Li Rui took Lao Zhou and the others to a restaurant to eat. The two girls helped to get a room at the hotel.
On the streets of Beijing, it was easy to find a restaurant. High-end, mid-range, fast … depending on your needs. Li Rui quickly found a mid-range restaurant diagonally across the street. After asking for their opinions, they went in to eat.
Just as he finished ordering, Li Rui suddenly received a call from Song Xue. Originally, he was quite happy to receive a call from the little girl, but when he thought of her mother, his mood instantly became very heavy. He walked out of the private room and answered the call.
"Hello, Brother Xiao Rui. You're off work, right? I … I'm calling you to apologize. That day you came to see me, but I …"
Li Rui's ears kept on hearing her apology, but his heart didn't listen. He was only thinking about one thing. Should he tell her about Sun Shuqin's condition? Should he tell her now, or should he wait until after the operation?
